Part I
Item 1. Description of Business.
(a) General Development of Business
Lotus Pacific, Inc. (the "Registrant" or "Company"), was incorporated under
the laws of the State of Delaware on June 25, 1985. The Registrant was
organized to raise capital and to investigate and acquire any suitable asset,
property or other business opportunity which, in the opinion of management,
would be in the best interests of the Company.
In April 1987, the Company completed a public offering of securities
registered on Form 3-18 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
Company completed a business acquisition in January 1991, and pursued a
specified business program until March 1993. In June 1993, the company
disposed of all of its interests in other entities and ceased to have any
business operations.
In September 1994, the Company completed a transaction wherein it sold
7,000,000 shares of its common stock (after giving effect to a 1 for 50
reverse stock split) for $7,000, and sold 43,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock for $43,000 to Lotus International Holding Corp. The company also sold
1,000,000 shares of common stock to other persons for $1,000. In connection
with said transactions the Company appointed new officers and directors and
changed its corporate name to Lotus Pacific, Inc.
In March 1995, the Company issued 18,000,000 shares of its common stock to
Lotus International Holdings Corp. for $180,000.
In September 1995, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement
wherein it acquired a 70% equity interest in Shanghai Union Auto-Bicycle Co.,
Ltd. ("Shanghai Union"), a company located in Shanghai, China. The regi-
strant issued 560,000 restricted shares of its common stock as the sole
consideration given for the 70% interest in Shanghai Union. In June 1996,
the registrant entered into a second Stock Exchange Agreement wherein it
exchanged the 70% equity interest in Shanghai Union with a Hong Kong company
for 112,000 shares of common stock of Rightiming Electronics Corp., a Delaware
corporation.
The Company currently has 26,937,054 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding.
(b) Financial information about Industry Segments
The registrant does not presently have separate industry segments.
(c) Narrative Description of the Business.
The Company's business plan is to seek one or more potential business
ventures, which, in the opinion of management, may warrant involvement by the
company. The Company will only acquire business which can generate or provide
audited financial statements.The company recognizes that because of its
limited financial, managerial and other resources, the number of suitable
potential business ventures which may be available to it will be extremely
limited. The Company's principal business objective will be to seek long-term
growth potential in the business venture in which it participates rather than
to seek immediate, short-term earnings. In seeking to attain the Company's
business objective, it will not restrict its search to any particular business
or industry, but may participate in business ventures of essentially any kind
or nature, including, but not limited to, finance, high technology, manu-
facturing, natural resources, service, research and development, communications,
insurance, brokerage, transportation and others. Management's discretion is
unrestricted and it may participate in any business venture whatsoever, which
may meet the business objectives discussed herein. It is emphasized that the
business objectives discussed are extremely general and are notintended to
be restrictive upon the discretion of management.
Item 2. Properties.
The registrant has the total cash assets of $213,081.83 as of June 30, 1996.
The Company holds 112,000 shares of common stock of Rightiming Electronics
Corp., a Delaware nonpublic company which designs and manufactures electronic
software in New Jersey and China. The Company is currently provided office
space by its directors.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
There are not currently any material pending legal proceedings, to which
the registrant is a party or to which any of its property is subject and no
such proceedings are known to be the registrant to be threatened or contemp-
lated by or against it.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter was submitted to a vote of the security holders, through
solicitation of proxies or otherwise during the 4th quarter of the fiscal year
covered by this report.

development of the Company's business.
Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
The Company was incorporated June 25, 1985, for the purpose of investing
in any and all types of assets, properties, and business. On September 29,
1995, the registrant entered into a stock exchange agreement wherein it
acquired 70% equity interest in Shanghai Union Auto-Bicycle Co., ltd., a
company incorporated and operated in Shanghai, People's Republic of China.
As the management of the registrant found that the offshore company did not
generate sufficient revenues and profit as the registrant expected in the nine
month period, the registrant entered into a stock exchange agreement on June
28, 1996 wherein it exchanged the 70% equity interest in Shanghai Union
Auto-Bicycle Co., Ltd. for 112,000 shares of common stock of Rightiming
Electronics Corp., a Delaware nonpublic company. The registrant's plan of
operation is to pursue a business combination with one or more existing
business operations.

Item 8. Changes In and Disagreements with Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

to serve as the independent auditors of its year end financial statements
starting from its fiscal year of 1995. To the best knowledge of current
management, the Registrant did not use an auditor for its fiscal year prior
to 1995 and therefore had no auditors.
To the best knowledge of current management, no adverse opinion, disclaimer
of opinion, qualification or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles exists in any report of any prior auditors on the
