                     Independent Accountants' Review Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
King Power International Group Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries

We have  reviewed the  consolidated  balance  sheet of King Power  International
Group Co.,  Ltd. and  Subsidiaries  (a Nevada  Corporation)  as of September 30,
2000,  and the related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  shareholders'
equity  and cash flows for the three  months  and nine  months  then  ended,  in
accordance  with  Statements on Standards  for  Accounting  and Review  Services
issued  by  the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public   Accountants.   All
information  included in these financial statements is the representation of the
management of King Power International Group Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries

A review consists  principally of inquiries of Company  personnel and analytical
procedures  applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion  regarding the financial  statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material  modifications that should
be made to the  accompanying  financial  statements  in order  for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principals.

                FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
                                   (Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         King Power  International  Group Co., Ltd.  (formerly  Immune  America,
Inc.) (herein the "Company") was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 30, 1985.

         On June 12, 1997, the Company exchanged 18,800,000 shares of its common
stock for 99.94% of the issued and  outstanding  common shares of King Power Tax
Free Company Limited  [(formerly J.M.T. Group Company  Limited)-KPT  thereafter]
and 94.95% of the issued and  outstanding  common shares of King Power Duty Free
Company Limited [(formerly J.M.T. Duty Free Company Limited)-KPD thereafter].

         This exchange of the  Company's  common stock to the former KPT and KPD
shareholders  resulted in those former shareholders  obtaining a majority voting
interest in the Company.  Generally accepted accounting  principles require that
the  company  whose  stockholders  retain the  majority  interest  in a combined
business be treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes.  Consequently, this
transaction was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" for financial reporting
purposes and KPT and KPD were deemed to have acquired 94% of equity  interest in
the Company as of the date of  acquisition.  The  relevant  acquisition  process
utilized  the capital  structure  of Immune  America,  Inc.,  and the assets and
liabilities of KPT and KPD were recorded at historical cost.

         KPT and KPD are the operating entities for financial reporting purposes
and the  financial  statements  prior to June 12, 1997,  represent KPT and KPD's
financial  position  and  results of  operations.  The assets,  liabilities  and
results of  operations  of both KPT and KPD are  included  as of June 12,  1997.
Although KPT and KPD are deemed to be the acquiring  corporations  for financial
accounting  and  reporting  purposes,  the legal  status of the  Company  as the
surviving corporation does not change.

         Concurrent  with the  reverse  acquisition,  the  Company  changed  its
corporate name from Immune America,  Inc. to King Power International Group Co.,
Ltd.

         KPD is a  Thailand-based  corporation  engaged  in  selling  duty  free
merchandise  to the traveling  public under the  supervision  of Thai customs in
stores located in the international terminals of the various airports located in
Thailand.  KPD holds from the  Airports  Authority  of Thailand a  non-exclusive
license to operate duty free stores for all stores of this specific nature.  For
the duty free  store  operation,  KPD is exempt  from input  value  added tax on
purchases  of import  merchandise  and from  output  value added tax on sales of
merchandise.

         KPT  is  a  Thailand-based   corporation  engaged  in  selling  various
souvenirs and consumer products in the  international and domestic  terminals of
the various  airports  located in Thailand to the general public.  KPT holds the
exclusive  operating  license granted by the Airports  Authority of Thailand for
all shops of this specific nature. For the tax-free operation, KPT is subject to
input  value added tax on  purchases  of  merchandise  and is exempt from output
value added tax on sales of merchandise.

         On October 10, 1997, the Company  acquired 4,900 shares of common stock
in King  Power  International  Group  (Thailand)  Company  Limited  (KPG  Thai),
equivalent  to 49% of the  registered  capital.  KPG  Thai  was  established  in
Thailand on September  11, 1997,  and has  registered  capital  totaling  Baht 1
million  divided into 10,000 shares of common stock with Baht 100 per share.  On
the same date, KPT acquired 5,093 shares of common stock in KPG Thai, equivalent
to 50.93% of the  registered  capital.  Ultimately,  the Company  owns 99.93% of
equity interest in KPG Thai.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Principles of  Consolidation - The consolidated  financial  statements,
which include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries,  are prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts  and  transactions  have been
eliminated  in  consolidation.  Investments  in  other  companies  under  20% of
interest are  accounted for using the cost method.  At December 31, 1999,  these
investments  have been written down due to an assumed  permanent  impairment  of
their  value.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  in U.S.
dollars.

         Cash and Cash  Equivalents  - The Company  considers  all highly liquid
investments  with  an  original  maturity  of  three  months  or less to be cash
equivalents.

         Merchandise  Inventories  - Merchandise  inventories  are stated at the
lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis.

                                                                              11

         NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
                FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
                                   (Unaudited)

         Provision for Doubtful  Accounts - Estimated  collection  losses of the
Company are provided for based on the Company's  collection  experience together
with a review of the  financial  position  of each  debtor.  Where  the  Company
determines  reserves are  necessary,  it will provide an allowance for the total
receivable and accrued interest outstanding.

         Marketable  Securities  -  Securities  held for  trading  are marked to
market at year-end  with the  resulting  gain or loss being  included in current
income.
         Foreign Currency  Translation and Transactions - The financial position
and results of operations of the Company's  foreign  subsidiaries are determined
using the local currency as the functional  currency.  Assets and liabilities of
these subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing  exchange rates in effect at
each  period  end.   Contributed  capital  accounts  are  translated  using  the
historical rate of exchange when capital was injected. Income statement accounts
are  translated  at the average  rate of exchange  during the year.  Translation
adjustments  arising  from the use of  different  exchange  rates from period to
period  are  included  in  the  cumulative  translation  adjustment  account  in
shareholders'   equity.   Gains  and  losses  resulting  from  foreign  currency
transactions  are included in  operations.  Gains or losses on foreign  exchange
transaction are recognized as incurred in the consolidated statements of income.
Differences  between  the  forward  rate and the spot rate in  forward  exchange
contracts are amortized as revenue and expense over the period of the contract.

         The exchange  rates at September 30, 2000,  and December 31, 1999,  are
$1= Thai Baht 42.256 and Baht 37.520,  respectively.  The average exchange rates
for the nine months ended  September  30, 2000 and 1999 are $1= Thai Baht 39.195
and Baht 37.6387 respectively.

         Property,  Plant and  Equipment -  Property,  plant and  equipment  are
stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

         Buildings                                            20 Years
         Leasehold improvements                               Term of lease
         Selling office equipment and fixtures                5 Years
         Vehicles                                             5 Years

         Maintenance,  repairs  and  minor  renewals  are  charged  directly  to
expenses as incurred.

         Store  Pre-Opening  Costs - Store pre - opening  costs are  expensed as
incurred.

         Use  of  Estimates  -  The  preparation  of  financial   statements  in
conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles requires management to
make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
liabilities,  the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
financial  statements,  and the reported  amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

         Revenue  Recognition  - The Company  recognizes  revenue  from sales of
merchandise at the point of sale.

         Concession  Fees - According to the concession  agreement with Airports
Authority  of  Thailand,  KPT is required  to pay  concession  fees,  rental and
services  fees,  and other  related  expenses at the fixed  charges per month as
defined  in the  agreement.  According  to the  concession  agreement  with  the
Airports  Authority of Thailand,  KPD is required to pay concession  fees at the
fixed  percentage of sales but at least equal to the fixed charges as defined in
the agreement, and pay rental and service fee and other related expenses.

         Concentrations  of Credit Risk - The Company's  retail  businesses  are
cash flow  businesses.  Most sales take place with cash  receipts or credit card
payments.  The  Company  maintains  its cash  accounts  with  various  financial
institutions.  In  Thailand,  such  accounts  are insured for the full amount of
their  value by the Thai  government.  U.S.  bank  deposits  are within  Federal
insurance  limits.  See Note 10 with  respect to loans and advances to directors
and affiliated companies.

         Fair Value of  Financial  Instruments  - The  carrying  amount of cash,
trade accounts receivable,  notes receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued
payables  are  reasonable  estimates  of their fair  value  because of the short
maturity of these items. The carrying amounts of the Company's credit facilities
approximate  fair value  because the  interest  rates on these  instruments  are
subject to change with market interest rates.

                                                                              12

                                   (Unaudited)

         Income  Taxes  - The  Company  accounts  for  income  taxes  using  the
liability  method,  which  requires  an entity to  recognize  the  deferred  tax
liabilities  and  assets.  Deferred  income  taxes are  recognized  based on the
differences  between the tax bases of assets and  liabilities and their reported
amounts in the  financial  statements  that will result in taxable or deductible
amounts in future  years.  Further,  the  effects  of  enacted  tax laws or rate
changes are  included as part of deferred  tax expense or benefits in the period
that covers the  enactment  date. A valuation  allowance is  recognized if it is
more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not
be realized.

         The  Company  does  not  provide  for  United  States  income  taxes on
unlimited  earnings  of its  Thailand-based  subsidiaries  since  the  Company's
intention is to reinvest these earnings in their operations.

         Earnings Per Share - Basic  earnings per share has been computed  based
on the average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  There are no
potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

         Reclassification  - Certain  1999  amounts  have been  reclassified  to
conform to the 2000 presentation.

         New  Accounting  Standards Not Yet  Adopted-Accounting  for  Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133 as amended by  Statement  of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.137 is
effective for all fiscal  quarters of all fiscal years  beginning after June 15,
2000.  This  Statement  requires  that  certain  derivative  instruments  to  be
recognized  in balance  sheets at fair value and for changes in fair value to be
recognized in operations. Additional guidance is also provided to determine when
hedge accounting  treatment is appropriate  whereby hedging gains and losses are
offset by losses and gains  related  directly to the hedged  item.  For the year
ended December 31,1999,  and the quarter ended September 30, 2000, that adoption
does not have a significant impact on financial condition or operating results.

3. RESTRICTED FIXED DEPOSITS

                                       September 30, 2000      December 31, 1999
     Restricted fixed deposits            $ 5,880,547             $ 3,845,629
     Interest rates                      1.00% - 5.00%           3.00% - 5.50%

         As of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999,  the  restricted  fixed
deposits with maturities from three to twelve months are pledged as a collateral
to a commercial bank for bank credit  facilities of  subsidiaries.  As these are
current obligations of the Company, the deposits are shown as current assets.

4. REFUNDABLE VALUE ADDED TAX

         For  Thailand-based  subsidiaries,  refundable  value  added  tax (VAT)
represents, on a cumulative basis, the excess of input tax (charged by suppliers
on  purchases  of  merchandise  and  services)  over the output tax  (charged to
customers on sales of merchandise  and  services).  Value added tax is levied on
the  value  added  at each  stage  of  production  and  distribution,  including
servicing,  generally  at the rate of 10%  effective  at August  16,  1997.  The
Minister  of  Finance,  however,  declared a new value  added tax at the rate 7%
commencing at April 1, 1999, in order to stimulate the domestic economy.

                                                                              13

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

(1)   Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This quarter report contains certain forward-looking  statements and information
relating  to the  Company  that  is  based  on the  beliefs  of the  Company  or
management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to
the Company or management.  When used in this document,  the words "anticipate",
"believe",  "estimate",  "expect", and "intend" and similar expressions, as they
relate  to  the   Company  or  its   management,   are   intended   to  identify
forward-looking  statements.  Such  statements  reflect the current  view of the
Company regarding future events and are subject to certain risks,  uncertainties
and assumptions, including the risks and uncertainties noted. Should one or more
of these risks or uncertainties  materialize,  or should underlying  assumptions
prove incorrect,  actual results may vary materially from those described herein
as anticipated,  believed,  estimated,  expected or intended.  In each instance,
forward-looking  information  should be considered in light of the  accompanying
meaningful cautionary statements herein.

(2)   Effects on the Change in Foreign Currency Exchange System

On July 2,  1997,  the  Thai  Government  announced  that the  Thai  Baht  would
thereafter be converted to a "Managed Float" system for the  relationship of the
Baht to other international  currencies.  This change had an immediate impact on
the Company's operations and the results of its operations.

The  Company's  subsidiaries  conduct  their  business with selling and purchase
prices based on Thai Baht, US Dollars, and other currencies. Sales are made both
in Thai Baht and other  currencies,  but eventually  will be converted into Thai
Baht. Accordingly,  the Company bears foreign currency transaction risks between
the date of purchase of goods for resale and the  ultimate  payment of the goods
in the appropriate negotiated currency.

The  overall  effect  of  the  Thai  Baht  devaluation  was an  increase  in the
attractiveness of Thailand as a tourist  destination.  This increase in tourists
had a direct impact on increasing  the Company's  sales in the  post-devaluation
time period.

In accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  the Company has
separately  presented  the  following  items in its  statement of income for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000:

         Net realized gain on foreign exchange                 $0.001 million
         Net unrealized loss on foreign exchange               $0.27 million

The calculation of unrealized foreign exchange loss of $0.27 million is shown in
charts labeled A and B, respectively.

                                                                              24

(3) Results of operations,  comparing  nine months ended  September 30, 2000 and
1999

Sales revenue for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000,  was  approximately
$79.2 million compared to approximately  $63.2.  million for 1999. This increase
is directly  attributable to the continual  growth in number of tourist entering
into Thailand and the  promotional  sales  discount to attract  larger  customer
base.  Commencing  in the last  half of  1997,  the Thai  Government  began  the
"Amazing Thailand"  marketing campaign to coincide with various events occurring
in Thailand or other  countries  closely  located near Thailand.  This marketing
campaign is international in scope and directly  targeted to attract  additional
new and repeat visitors to Thailand.  The Company expects that this  promotional
campaign will continue to directly impact the Company's operations in a positive
manner during and  subsequent  to this time period.  In addition to the "Amazing
Thailand"  campaign,  during  the  first  half of  2000,  the  Company  launched
promotional  sales  discount in order to capture  new and larger  base  customer
groups  who are price  sensitive.  By  implementing  this  strategy,  Management
believes  that the sales volume will  continue to grow and result  positively on
the Company's operating profit.

The cost of  merchandise  sold for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 and
1999,  was  approximately  $38.1 million and $29.8  million,  respectively.  The
principal  factor  causing this increase is directly  related to the increase in
sales  volume.  However,  due to the lower  concession  fees paid to the Airport
Authorities  of Thailand  (AAT),  comparing the nine months ended  September 30,
2000,  to the same period in 1999,  the ratio of  concession  fees paid to sales
revenue fell from 26.71% in 1999 to 20.50% in 2000. This decrease is a result of
successful  negotiations with the AAT to lower the fixed concession fees paid by
KPT to be more  closely  in line  with the  current  sales  of this  subsidiary.
Management  anticipates  a  further  reduction  in these  fees may  result  from
continued negotiations with the AAT.

Selling and  administrative  expenses were  approximately  $15.1 million for the
nine months ended  September 30, 2000, and  approximately  $15.5 million for the
same  period in 1999.  In terms of  percentage  of  sales,  2000  expenses  were
approximately  19.12% of sales and 1999  expenses were  approximately  24.48% of
sales. This decrease is in-line with  Management's  expectation as the result of
increasing efficiency among business units.

                                                                              28

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, was approximately  $6.0
million,  or $0.30 per share (basic),  and approximately $1.7 million,  or $0.08
per share (basic), for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

The ratio of inventory  divided by revenue for the nine months  ended  September
30,  2000 and 1999,  was  approximately  21.12% and 26.12%,  respectively.  This
decrease is the result of an unscheduled increase in number of tourists who shop
at the Company's stores causing faster turnover of merchandise.

(4) Results of operations,  comparing  three months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999

Sales revenue for the three months ended  September 30, 2000, was  approximately
$26.6 million compared to approximately $20.3 million for 1999. This increase is
directly attributable to the continual growth in number of tourist entering into
Thailand and the  promotional  sales discount to attract larger customer base as
mentioned above.

The cost of merchandise  sold for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 and
1999,  was  approximately  $13.1  million and $9.5  million,  respectively.  The
principal  factor  causing this increase is directly  related to the increase in
merchandise  sold and the current  campaign  on  promotional  sales  discount of
products sold in both  subsidiaries  where more units of  merchandise  were sold
with slightly less profit margin.  Comparing the concession fees paid to the AAT
for the three months ended  September 30, 2000, to the same period in 1999,  the
ratio of concession  fees paid to sales  revenue  reduced from 25.05% in 1999 to
18.24% in 2000.  This decrease is a result of successful  negotiations  with the
AAT to lower the fixed  concession  fees paid by KPT to be more  closely in line
with the current sales of this subsidiary and due to concession fee structure of
KPT is based on fixed  amount.  Management  anticipates  a further  reduction in
these fees may result  from the  increase  in sales  volume  generated  from the
upcoming high seasons during the last quarter of the year.

Selling and  administrative  expenses  were  approximately  $5.0 million for the
three months ended  September 30, 2000, and  approximately  $6.1 million for the
same  period in 1999.  In terms of  percentage  of  sales,  2000  expenses  were
approximately  18.88% of sales and 1999  expenses were  approximately  29.97% of
sales. This decrease is in-line with  Management's  expectation as the result of
increasing efficiency among business units.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2000, was approximately $2.2
million, or $0.11 per share (basic), and net loss of approximately $0.1 million,
or $0.01 per share (basic), for the three months ended September 30, 1999.

                                                                              29

(5)  Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the quarter ended  September 30, 2000, and the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Company had working capital of approximately $11.6 million and $6.2 million,
respectively.  The improvement of this figure is due to the Company's ability to
expand operations and to generate  increased sales,  thereby  increasing current
assets  coupled  with  overall  reduction  in  current  liabilities.  Management
anticipates  that the current  positive trend will continue as sales continue to
grow and operations are stabilized.
