ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

Introduction

     Corrections Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State 
of Florida in 1984.  The Company was organized for the purpose of developing 
and marketing a house arrest program ("Program") to relieve the need for 
incarceration in a jail or similar facility.  The Program consists of 
computer-controlled, electronic signaling systems which permit continuous 
around the clock monitoring of a client/inmate's presence or absence from his 
or her residence.

Background

     The Company undertook to secure equipment which would be responsive to 
the needs of corrections authorities and began to market its Program with a 
new hardware system supplied by an independent manufacturer.  During 1986, the 
Company secured registration of its trademark "In-House-Arrest" from the 
United States Patent and Trademark office (Registration No. 1,394,745).  

     Beginning in 1988 the Company's system was manufactured by Marconi 
Electronic Devices, Ltd. ("Marconi") in the United Kingdom.  Following a long 
period of difficulties and shortfall, the Company filed a federal lawsuit 
against Marconi for breach of contract and breach of warranty, seeking damages 
and ending its turbulent manufacturing and supply arrangement with Marconi.  
On July 28, 1993 a settlement agreement was entered into fully and finally 
terminating the litigation.

     Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company transferred certain 
product equipment, intellectual property rights in the systems' equipment 
design and software and a three year covenant not to compete to Marconi.  In 
exchange, the Company received extinguishment of its approximately $2.1 
Million payable to Marconi and the sum of $250,000 in cash.  Following closing 
of the settlement agreement the Company, within the bounds of its non-compete 
agreement, continued to service its existing customer base.  
Subsequent Developments

     Subsequent to the litigation settlement, Marconi sold all of its tangible 
and intangible assets related to the system's equipment production, sales and 
service to Aeroflex Laboratories, Inc. of Plainview, New York.  After 
settlement of the litigation in mid-1993, neither Marconi nor Aeroflex had 
engaged in any operations in the monitoring systems marketplace.  In late May 
1994, the Company approached Aeroflex with a view toward purchase of all of 

<PAGE>

the system assets and release from its non-compete agreement with Marconi.

     On July 1, 1994, the Company both re-acquired from Aeroflex all of the 
system equipment it had relinquished in the litigation settlement agreement, 
and acquired all of the other tangible and intangible assets related to 
production, sales and service of the product line previously acquired by 
Aeroflex from Marconi, including completed parts and parts for construction of 
additional units, all of the related software, firmware, tooling, tools and 
test equipment and all intellectual property including patents and design and 
manufacturing drawings, schematics, information and records.  The Company was 
also able to secure unconditional release from the non-compete agreement with 
Marconi.

     In exchange, the Company paid Aeroflex Laboratories, Inc. the sum of 
$100,000 in cash and released Aeroflex Laboratories, Inc. and Marconi from 
liability for equipment field service obligations, including outstanding, 
unexpired manufacturer's equipment warranties, which obligations were assumed 
by the Company.

     With completion of the Aeroflex transaction in mid-1994 the Company in 
effect, negated all of the limiting factors imposed by settlement of the 
litigation against Marconi in mid-1993.  The Company re-entered the 
marketplace depending upon its newly acquired, finished equipment inventory.  
The Company intends to consider alternative manufacturing options for possible 
future implementation prior to potential exhaustion, if any, of its finished 
equipment inventory.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able 
to implement one or more manufacturing options in the event of a need to do 
so.  If unable to do so when and if needed, the Company will be adversely 
affected.

Employees

     In addition to its officers, Mr. Norman H. Becker and Mr. Frank R. Bauer, 
who each currently devote approximately ten (10%) percent of their time to its 
activities, and Ms. Diane Martini, who currently devotes approximately eighty 
(80%) percent of her time to its activities, the Company currently has five 
(5) other full-time employees  See Part III., Item 10, Directors and Executive 
Officers of the Registrant.


ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

     The Company occupies its principal offices and shop facilities space on a
month-to-month basis at a combined rental and administrative charge of $2,600 
per month ($31,200 per annum).

     The Company also occupies warehouse space in the City of Pompano Beach, 
Florida on an annual lease basis at a rental of $818 per month ($9,816 per

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

     (a)  Financial Condition.  As of December 31, 1996 the Company had 
current assets of $1,199,917 compared to $1,079,708 at December 31, 1995, 
total assets of $1,205,096 compared to $1,087,236 at December 31, 1995 and 
shareholders equity of $1,070,006 as compared to $957,003 as of December 31, 
1995.  The increase of its current assets and total assets were primarily the 
result of the Company's increase in cash and marketable trading securities.  
The Shareholders equity at December 31, 1996 increased to $1,070,006, from 
$957,003 at December 31, 1995.  The increase was primarily the result of 
earnings of $113,003 for the year ended December 31, 1996.  

     The Company realized net income for the year which increased shareholders 
equity from $957,003 at year end 1995, to $1,070,006 at year end 1996.

<PAGE>

     Liquidity.  The Company had a net increase in cash and cash equivalents 
for the year ended December 31, 1996 of $75,293, and cash and cash equivalents 
at the end of the year of $336,678 as compared to a decrease in cash and cash 
equivalents of $2,740, and cash and cash equivalents of $261,385 for the year 
ended December 31, 1995.  See Part II, Item 8., Financial Statements and 
Supplementary Data.

     The Company continues to have no fixed executory obligations.

     Capital Resources.  The Company has no present material commitments for 
additional capital expenditures.  The Company has no outstanding credit lines 
or commitments in place and no immediate need for additional financial 
credit.  There can be no assurance that it will be able to secure additional 
credit borrowing, if needed.

     Results of Operations.  The Company's revenues for the fiscal period 
ended December 31, 1996, were derived from sales, lease income and repairs and 
maintenance income. 

     The Company's revenues increased to $552,441 for the fiscal year ended 
December 31, 1996, as compared to $533,269 for the same period of 1995.  The 
principal reason for the increase was increased repair, maintenance and lease 
income.

     Operating expenses decreased to $532,331 as compared to $542,884 for the 
same period last year principally due to a decrease in cost of sales.  The 
Company realized net income of $113,003 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 
1996, as compared to a net loss of ($22,717) for the same period last year.  
The increase in net income was primarily due to decreased cost of sales.

     The operating expenses decrease in the period ended December 31, 1996 of 
$10,553 in comparison to 1995 was primarily attributable to decreases in both 
cost of sales and in selling, general and administrative expenses.

     The Company knows of no unusual or infrequent events or transactions, nor 
significant economic changes that have materially affected the amount of its 
reported income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 
1996.

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Corrections Services, Inc. and Subsidiary
Fort Lauderdale, Florida


                   INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Corrections Services, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations and
shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years
ended December 31, 1996.  These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management.  My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that I plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated
financial statement presentation.  I believe that my audits provide
a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Corrections Services, Inc. and Subsidiary as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its consolidated
operations and its consolidated cash flows for the three years
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
that Corrections Services, Inc. and Subsidiary will continue as a
going concern.  As more fully described in Note B, the Company has
incurred substantial operating losses in previous years.  In
addition, a substantial portion of the Company's sales were made to
one customer.  These conditions raise questions about the Company's
ability to continue  as a going concern.  The Company's continued
existence is dependent  upon its ability to preserve its existing

working capital, continue to successfully sell its products and
continue to achieve profitable operations.  The financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recovery and classification of assets or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the
possible inability of Corrections Services, Inc. and Subsidiary to
continue as a going concern.

             CORRECTIONS SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995



NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Organization and Capitalization

      Corrections Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated
      under the laws of the State of Florida on September 14, 1984. 
      The Company's articles of incorporation originally provided for
      the issuance of 100 shares of common stock, with a par value of
      $5 per share.  On November 13, 1985, the authorized number of
      shares was increased to 10,000,000 shares, with a par value of
      $.0001 per share.  In that connection, the 100 shares of common
      stock outstanding prior to that date were exchanged for
      2,115,000 shares.

     General

      The Company commenced its operational activities for accounting
      purposes on February 5, 1985.  Through December 31, 1986, the
      Company was principally engaged in organization, initial
      marketing, program design and implementation, as well as system
      hardware and software design activities and raising capital. 
      Revenues earned through December 31, 1986, were primarily the
      result of test marketing sales to a limited number of customers. 
      During 1987, the Company successfully installed its equipment in
      a number of sites throughout the country.

     Business Activity

      As a result of agreements reached with its former manufacturing
      supplier, the Company sells in-house arrest systems and now
      provides maintenance, repair and replacement of in-house arrest
      systems previously sold to customers.  The in-house arrest
      system consists of a computer controlled electronic signalling
      system to permit continuous monitoring of the user's presence or
      absence from his residence during the period of the individual's
      home restriction and confinement sentence.

     Principles of Consolidation

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
      the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Corrections
      Systems International, Inc.  All significant intercompany
      accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

            CORRECTIONS SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

      Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the balance sheet
      and statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
      liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three
      months or less to be cash equivalents.

      Inventory - Inventory which is comprised principally of
      computers, monitors, TX's and parts, is valued at the lower of
      cost or market using the first-in, first-out method.

      Investment in Marketable Trading Securities - The Company's
      investment in marketable trading securities consists of trading
      securities as defined in FASB Statement No. 115.  Trading
      securities are carried at market value in the accompanying
      balance sheets.  Unrealized gains and losses resulting from
      fluctuations in the market price of the related securities are
      currently reflected in the statement of operations.

      Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is recorded at
      cost.  Expenditures for major betterments and additions are
      charged to the asset accounts, while replacements, maintenance
      and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the
      respective assets are charged to expense currently.

      Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
      estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful
      lives are as follows:

           Computer and monitor equipment             3 years
           Molds, dies and tooling costs              5 years
           Office furniture and equipment             5 years
           Software                                   3 years
           Leasehold improvements                     3 years

      Product Warranty - The Company warranties its products for a
      specified time after a sale.  The Company's supplier warranties
      its product for a similar time period.  Due to the nature of
      these warranties, all expenses relating to repair of units sold
      is expensed as incurred and, accordingly, no provision for
      warranty liability has been made.

      Deferred Revenue - Deferred revenue represents the unearned
      portion of customers' payments relating to equipment maintenance
      and leasing contracts.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

      Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share - Net income (loss) per
      common share was computed by dividing the net income (loss) for
      each period by the weighted average number of common shares
      outstanding during each period.

      Research and Development - The Company has expensed all costs
      incurred in establishing technological feasibility of computer
      software intended for sale to customers.  Certain research and
      development costs incurred for computer software are
      capitalized, such as costs incurred for producing product
      masters, including costs for coding and testing.  Such
      capitalized software costs are amortized over a three year
      period.

      Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue at the time
      merchandise is shipped to the customers.  Installation and
      training costs associated with the sale are generally recorded
      in the same period.

NOTE B - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability
      to preserve working capital, obtain an alternative source of
      revenues sufficient to absorb operating expenses, and achieve
      profitable operations.  The Company intends to reduce its
      operating expenses and hopes to realize increased revenues from
      its repair and maintenance operations.

      annual rental commitments.


NOTE I - INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES

      At December 31, 1996, the Company's investment in marketable
      equity securities consisted entirely of trading securities as
      follows:

                                                                Market
                                           Cost                 Value 
     Investments in corporate
       trading securities of
       related parties                     $ 31,490             $ 32,272
     Investment in corporate
       trading securities -
       other                                926,744              628,497
                                           $958,234             $660,769

NOTE J - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

      Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
      concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary
      cash investments, investments in marketable securities and
      accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash investments
      and investments in marketable securities with high quality
      institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any
      one institution or investee.  Concentrations of credit risk
      with respect to accounts receivable are limited, due to the
      relatively small average balance per customer and their dispersion
      across several geographical areas.  The Company generally does
      not require collateral or other security to support customer
      receivables.


NOTE K - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

      The following notes sumarize the major methods and assumptions
      used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:

           Cash and Cash Equivalents

           The carrying amount approximates fair market value due to
           the liquidity of these financial instruments.

           Investments

           The fair values of investments are based upon quoted
           market prices for those investments.

           Accounts Receivable

           The fair value of customer receivables is based upon net
           realizable value.

NOTE I - INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE TRADING SECURITIES (Contd..)

      The Company adopted FASB No. 115 on January 1, 1994.  Prior to
      that date the Company's investment in marketable trading
      securities were carried at the lower of cost or market.  At
      December 31, 1993, the Company's portfolio of trading securities
      was carried at market value, which was less than cost.

      Unrealized losses on changes in market values of marketable
      trading securities amounted to $88,225 in 1996, $30,801 in 1995
      and $138,115 in 1994.
