              TECHNOLOGY GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     On September 1, 1994, the Company received a memorandum from the
United States Justice Department outlining proposed settlement terms
relating to toxic chemical contamination at a site formerly occupied by
a subsidiary of the Company.  The memorandum stipulated that the
United States Government ("U.S.G.") would receive $25,000 upon the
execution of the settlement, $206,000 payable over five years, and a
balloon payment of $150,000 payable in five years.  In addition, the
U.S.G. would receive 60 percent of the net proceeds from the sale of
the property.  The Company has requested a re-negotiation of the
settlement terms.

     In March of 1997, the Company made a counter-proposal to the U.S.G.
seeking reduction in the proposed terms for restoration expenditures incurred
by the Company resulting from severe zoning changes following the cleanup
phase.  As of September 30, 2000, the Company's expenditures to accommodate
code changes in order to permit re-occupancy of the premises were
approximately $200,000. At September 30,2000,this counter proposal was being
evaluated by the U.S.G. In the event of an unfavorable resolution to this
matter, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its financial
position, results of operations and cash flows and may have no alternative
means by which to finance such resolution other than to sell certain of its
assets to meet its obligation resulting from the ultimate resolution.

     In July of 1997, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
("D.E.P.") instituted suit against the Company related to toxic chemical
contamination at the site mentioned in the preceding paragraphs.  The civil
action is brought pursuant to the Spill Compensation and Control Act
("Spill Act"), whereby the D.E.P. seeks to recover costs which it has
expended and intends to expend in the future for the cleanup of the
hazardous substances.

     As of July 1997, the D.E.P. had incurred costs in excess of $1,150,000
and is attempting to recover an amount equal to three times the cleanup
costs incurred, and to be incurred, in accordance with a provision in the
Spill Act.  The litigation is now in the discovery process, and the ultimate
outcome of such litigation cannot be determined at the present time.  In the
event of an unfavorable resolution to this matter, the Company could
experience a material adverse effect on its finanical position, results of
operations and cash flows and may have no alternative means by which to
finance such resolution other than to sell certain of its assets to meet
its obligation resulting from the ultimate resolution.

     At September 30, 2000, the Company has accrued $444,000 which management
believes will be sufficient to satisfy any liabilities which may result in
connection with the settlement of the above-mentioned matters.

     In addition to the above, the Company is party to various
lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.
While the ultimate effects of such litigation cannot be determined
at the present time, it is Management's opinion, based on the advice of legal
counsel, that any liabilities which may result from these actions
would not have a material effect on the Company's ability to operate.

Item 2  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
 AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     For the six-month period ended September 30, 2000, Technology
General Corporation and subsidiary had consolidated revenues of $1,364,652
and net loss of $115,268.  Technology General Corporation, operating
individually as a holding company managing the various operating segments,
does not generate significant revenue other than allocating management
expenses to the operating entities and leasing space to two tenants.

     The Eclipse and Clawson Divisions operate in combination with
each other, and total sales for the six-month period amounted to
$325,582 and $249,942 respectively, for a total of $575,524.  The comparable
sales for the six-month period ending September 30, 1999 were $514,640 for
Eclipse and $227,985 for Clawson for a total of $742,625. The 2000 six-month
combined sales decreased $167,101 compared to the 1999 six-month total.

     Clawson Machine's ice crushing products featuring the patented
"Plus Crusher" are used in conjunction with major ice cube machines,
primarily Scotsman, Manitowoc, Crystal Tips, and Ice-O-Matic.  This system
provides an in-line means to intercept the flow of ice cubes in order to
process them into crushed ice during each ice cube harvest cycle.  This
device which is installed as an integral part of each ice cube machine, is
used predominantly by hotels and restaurants where large volumes of crushed
ice are required.

     Clawson Machine has received recognition from the National Sanitation
Foundation (N.S.F.) for improvements of its various machines used primarily
for crushing ice applicable to hotels and restaurants.  N.S.F. approval is
becoming a mandatory requirement throughout various parts of the country for
machines used in the processing of foods and liquids to assure maintenance
of sanitary conditions.  Clawson is one of a few manufacturers in its
category who has been awarded this distinction.

     Eclipse System's sales for the six-months ended
September 30, 2000, decreased $189,058 from the comparable period for 1999.
Management expects sales to increase as a result of the
introduction of a new line of industrial mixers.  The division has  recently
designed and developed a special line of chemical mixers, which are expected
to generate increased sales in the air-driven mixer market.

     The Precision Metalform Division reported sales for the six-month
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 of $402,494 and $496,966 respectively.
Management anticipates that sales for the balance of the year are expected
to increase in the writing instruments field whereas cosmetic sales are
expected to remain stable.  Precision Metalform, along with the Company's
other operating divisions, has taken positive steps to reduce its general
and administration overhead, including efforts to reduce inventories to
conserve cash flow.


     Transbanc International Investors Corporation, a wholly-owned
subsidiary, is a real estate holding company which leases its 113,000
square foot building to four (4) industrial tenants. Total rental revenue
for the six-months ended September 30, 2000 amounted to $288,979, an increase
of $12,869 compared to the six-months ended September 30, 1999.  Management
anticipates a modest increase in revenue from this facility resulting from
modified leases for an extended period of time.

     The Company's Aerosystems Technology Division owns a 24,000
square foot industrially-zoned building situated on 22 acres located
in Franklin, New Jersey, of which 3.5 acres were the subject of an E.P.A.
Superfund cleanup.  This property has been fully restored and is presently
occupied by two (2) tenants.  Rental revenue for the six-month period
ended September 30, 2000, totaled $25,804 compared to $13,080 for the
comparable 1999 period, an increase of $12,724.
