PART  I
ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF  BUSINESS
Background

The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Colorado on May 23,1986
under the name "Viceroy Ventures Ltd" for the primary purpose of entering into a
business combination with a then unknown entity. From the Company's inception
until November, 1987, the Company was an investment vehicle seeking a suitable
investment for its funds by way of merger with an operating company.

On October 8, 1986, the Company closed a public offering of 34,558,000 units at
a public offering price of $.01 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of
the Company's no par value Common Stock and one Class A Warrant entitling the
holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $.02 per
share. The warrants subsequently expired by their own terms.

In November, 1987, the Company acquired Duncan Mac Donald, Inc. a California
corporation formed on May 23,1980 and changed the name of Viceroy Ventures, Ltd.
to DMI, Inc. ("DMI" or the "Company"). Duncan Mac Donald, Inc. management
assumed control of the Company on such date.

Between 1985 and 1989, DMI was engaged in developing, manufacturing and
marketing microcomputer tape and disk storage subsystems, special purpose
computers and complete portable microcomputers. During 1986, approximately 93%
of the Company's revenue was derived from add-on products for computers
manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation. During 1987, the Company began to
emphasize other low end computer add-on products, and entered the market for
add-on storage subsystems for IBM personal computers and compatibles, including
AT&T, Zenith and Compaq.

In 1990, the Company began development of an optical archival system ("ARS") to
replace microfiche, computer tape and paper documents for the archiving of
historical information. The first customer installation of the new ARS system
was successfully made in December, 1990. Between 1992 and 1994, approximately 25
additional systems were installed .

Insufficient capital was available to develop the necessary marketing
organization, so in 1995 the strategic direction of the Company was revised to
seek licensing agreements for the ARS product and a merger candidate.

In March 1996, the Company entered into a software licensing agreement with
California Interactive Computer, Inc. and in September 1996 with Monarch
Technology Group. These agreements are presently active.

Subsequent to fiscal year 1996, the Company entered into a stock purchase
agreement on January 31, 1997 to acquire DTI Technology, Inc. (doing business as
Dega Technology) 


                                        3


<PAGE>   4


in exchange for 57,000,000 shares of DMI, Inc. . This agreement became effective
on July 21, 1997. Dega Technology will operate as a subsidiary of DMI, Inc. Dega
Technology is engaged in the development and distribution of windowed electronic
parts catalogs and service manuals, and other information catalogs. Its products
are distributed on CD-ROM discs.

In May of 1996, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Unicomp,
Inc. to establish a distribution channel for remanufactured Toshiba telephone
systems in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and China. By the terms of the Agreement,
DMI, Inc. was to receive 25% of the gross profits. The agreement was rescinded
in 1997 in favor of a $250,000 note to DMI, Inc. at 8% annuallized interest, due
October 21, 1997.

Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks

The Company has received a federal trademark for the name "DMI" and has received
copyright protection for its proprietary ARS software. In addition, U.S. Patent
# 5,530,899 was issued for the ARS technology in July of 1996.


Employees

At December 31, 1996, DMI, Inc. had reduced its permanent staff to two
employees, which are Messrs. Rose, Chief Executive Officer, and MacDonald,
President and Secretary.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company occupies office space from Unicomp, Inc.  at no charge.

GENERAL

The results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996, which primarily
reflect the Company's transformation from a developer and seller of document
imaging systems to a software licensor seeking a merger partner, are not
directly comparable to the results of operations for the year ended December 31,
1995. The operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 included some results
of operations from the Company's wholly owned subsidiary DMI, CARS, Inc. which
was dissolved in 1996, and the last sales of the Company's remaining inventory.

Due to the above, and because the results do not include the operations of DTI
Technology, Inc., the results of the operations for the year ended December 31,
1996 are not an indication of any future results of operations.

Fiscal Year 1996 compared to Fiscal Year 1995

Revenues for 1996 decreased 81% to $40,361 as the Company changed its direction
from a developer and seller of document imaging systems to a software licensor
seeking a merger partner. Although the company has two existing licensing
agreements with value added resellers, the company has not earned significant
revenues from such ageements. Subsequent to year-end, the company was successful
in finding a merger partner, and entered into a stock purchase agreement with
DTI Tehnology, Inc. (d.b.a. Dega Technology) a developer of windowed parts
catalogs and vehicle maintenance systems delivered on CD-ROMS.

Costs and expenses decreased 79% to $227,495 for primarily the same reasons as
mentioned above. Additionally, fiscal year 1995 costs and expenses included
non-recurring expenses of $82,721 for capitalized software amortization and
$74,133 for the write-off of remaining capitalized software costs. The Company
recorded charges to cost of sales of $35,199 in fiscal year 1996 and $23,296 in
fiscal year 1995 that related to inventory obsolescence.

The company recorded claims settlement income of $24,836 in fiscal year 1996 and
$206,500 in fiscal year 1995. Such amounts were revisions of previously recorded
estimates. Subsequent to year-end, the Company completely satisfied its
guarantee with respect to the settlement agreement. Accordingly, such income
will not recur.


                                       6


<PAGE>   7


Net interest expense of $430 was recorded for fiscal year 1996 compared to net
interest income $3,325 recorded in fiscal year 1995. This resulted primarily
from the Company borrowing $16,000 from a stockholder/officer in 1996, and the
Company maintaining lower interest earning cash balances throughout 1996.

As a result of the above, the Company recorded a net loss of $162,727, or $0.02
per share in fiscal year 1996 compared to a net loss of $681,846 or $0.08 per
share, in fiscal 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of
approximately $132,000 and cash equivalents of $9,000.

Although the Company raised $10,000 in a private placement subsequent to
year-end, the Company may potentially need additional financing to fund its
future operations and the operations of DTI Technology, Inc. No such financing
sources have yet been identified by the Company.

As mentioned above, the nature of the Company's operations changed from a
developer and seller of document imaging systems to a software licensor seeking
a merger partner. Such megrer partner was located subsequent to year-end. As
such, a management is currently not aware of any trends that may affect its
liquidity, capital resources and operations.

Inflation and seasonality are currently not expected to have a material effect
on the Company's liquidity, capital resources, or operating activities.

Fiscal Year 1995 compared to Fiscal Year 1994

Revenues
Revenues for 1995 were $213,954, down $194,860 (47.7%) from $408,814 in fiscal
1994. Results for the year reflect the shipment of three systems, in comparison
with sixteen systems during 1994.

During 1995, the Company's primary focus was on the startup of DMI CARS, a new
wholly owned subsidiary formed for the purpose of marketing office automation
products to the retail automobile dealer industry. Although three installations
were completed during the first nine months of 1995, experience with these pilot
installations indicated the need for further refinement of the product to
achieve the necessary market penetration.

During 1994, the Company's primary focus was the initial marketing of the
product on a general release basis to non-automotive resellers through partners
previously contracted in 1993. 16 systems were installed, for total revenues of
$333,536.


                                       7


<PAGE>   8


Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for fiscal year 1995 were $326,416, or 152.3% of revenues, down
from $400,270, or 97.8% of revenues. Cost of sales in 1995 and 1994 includes
amortization of capitalized software costs of approximately $82,721 and
$115,000, respectively. Cost of sales in 1995 also includes write-off of its
remaining capitalized software cost of $74,133 and revaluation of older hardware
inventories, resulting in an additional charge to cost of sales of $23,296. The
capitalized software as written off as a result of the Company's decision to
discontinue development of enhancements and the revision of its strategic
direction.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for 1995 were $779,209, down $583,939 (42.8%) from the 1994
total of $1,363,148. The decrease in operating expenses in 1995 reflects
reductions in employee headcount, and in outside and professional services.

Other Income and Expense
In 1995, claim settlement income of $206,500 was recorded as a final settlement
of a lawsuit was reached and executed. The income results from the reduction of
the previously estimated claim amount.

Results of Operations
The Company's net loss was $681,846 for 1995 ($.08 per share) versus a loss of
$1,469,424 ($.18 per share) in 1994. The net loss decreased in 1995 because of
lower cost of sales and operating costs as discussed above. Additionally, the
Company recorded claim settlement income in 1995 as opposed to claim settlement
expense in 1994.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
DMI, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of DMI, Inc. (the "Company") as
of December 31, 1996 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows of DMI, Inc. and Subsidiary for
the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of DMI, Inc. as of December 31,
1996 and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of DMI, Inc and
Subsidiary for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has experienced continued losses and negative
cash flows from operations, and has an accumulated deficit and negative working
capital at December 31, 1996. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard
to this matter are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                                 --------------


To the Board of Directors
DMI, Inc. and Subsidiary


We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows of DMI, Inc. and Subsidiary (the
"Company") for the year ended December 31, 1995. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence that
supports 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. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of operations and
cash flows of DMI, Inc. and Subsidiary for the year ended December 31, 1995, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced continued losses
and negative cash flows from operations, and has an accumulated deficit and
negative working capital at December 31, 1995. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The consolidated

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995



1.      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS

        DMI, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") develops, manufactures, and
        markets proprietary software and sells the related computer equipment to
        provide long-term data storage capability to its customers. During 1995,
        DMI CARS, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of DMI, Inc., was established
        for the purpose of marketing the Company's products to the automobile
        dealer market. As the Company has historically suffered from a lack of
        working capital, the strategic direction of the Company was revised
        during the fourth quarter of 1995 to seek licensing arrangements for its
        products and a merger partner. Additionally, the Company reduced its
        fixed costs by reducing staffing and related expenses, professional and
        other outside service expenses. In connection with the Company's
        redirection, DMI CARS, Inc. was dissolved during the first quarter of
        1996.

        The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
        the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has
        experienced continued losses and negative cash flows from operations,
        and has an accumulated deficit and negative working capital at December
        31, 1996. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's
        ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans, the success
        of which is uncertain, in regard to this matter are discussed below.

        Although the Company currently has three licensing agreements with
        "Value Added Resellers," the Company has yet to earn significant
        revenues from these agreements. Furthermore, the Company's joint venture
        agreement with Unicomp, Inc., with which it also entered into a letter
        of intent to enter into an exchange of shares agreement in November
        1995, was terminated in February 1997. However, as part of its new
        strategic direction and as more fully discussed in Note 3, the Company
        completed a business combination in July 1997 with DTI Technology, Inc.
        ("DTI"), a leader in providing electronic parts catalogues and services
        manuals for vehicle, equipment, and machine maintenance. Management
        intends to use funds raised through subsequent equity offerings to
        further develop and expand DTI's technologies and related products.
        Management expects to fund its future operations from a combination of
        operating cash flow and additional equity offerings. The outcome of
        these activities, however, is uncertain and the accompanying financial
        statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
        outcome of this uncertainty.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Consolidated Financial Statements

        The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
        1996, include the accounts of DMI, Inc. and the accounts of DMI CARS,
        Inc., through February 23, 1996, the date of its dissolution. The
        consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995
        include the accounts of DMI, Inc. and DMI CARS, Inc. All significant
        intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
        consolidation.

        Cash and Cash Equivalents

        For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
        considers all demand deposits and short-term investments that have
        acquired maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

        The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value because
        of the short-term maturity of those instruments.

        Inventories

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the
        first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and consist primarily of finished
        products. Units shipped to customers, subject to customer's acceptance
        or otherwise returnable to the Company, are included in inventories.
        During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company determined that its
        inventories were substantially obsolete and recorded a reserve against
        such inventories in the amount of $35,199. Such amount is included in
        cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

        Property and Equipment

        Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
        Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the assets'
        useful lives that range from three to five years. When assets are
        retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated
        depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
        loss is recognized in operations for the period. The cost of maintenance
        and repairs is charged to expense as incurred. During 1996, the Company
        retired all property and equipment that are no longer being used by the
        Company.

                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

        Income Taxes

        The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of
        Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
        Taxes," which requires the use of the "liability method" of accounting
        for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are
        determined based on the difference between the financial statement and
        tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect
        for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Current
        income taxes are based on the year's income taxable for federal and
        state income tax reporting purposes.

        Revenue Recognition and Product Warranty

        The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of hardware and software
        upon delivery to the customer, provided certain other conditions have
        been met including buyer acceptance, ability to pay and absence of
        significant vendor performance obligations. The Company recognizes
        revenue for post contract support on a ratable basis over the life of
        the contract. Costs of any voluntary post contract support are accrued
        and charged to operations as necessary.

        The Company currently offers a six-month warranty on its product,
        included in the purchase price, covering parts and labor, much of which
        in turn is offset by warranties provided by the Company's vendors. The
        Company has not experienced significant warranty related claims.

        Research and Development Costs

        Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. There were no
        research and development costs incurred during 1996 or 1995.

                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

        Software Development Costs

        Costs incurred in the research and development of new software products
        are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been
        established. After technological feasibility is established, any
        additional costs are capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 86,
        "Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or
        Otherwise Marketed." The establishment of technological feasibility and
        the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software
        development costs require considerable judgment by management with
        respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenues,
        estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware
        technologies.

        Net Loss Per Share

        Net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common
        shares outstanding during the year. Common stock equivalents have been
        excluded from the computation since the results would be anti-dilutive.

        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
        and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
        financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
        during the reporting period.
        Actual results could differ from those estimates.

        New Accounting Pronouncements

        In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
        issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 requires
        all companies to present "basic" EPS and, if they have a complex capital
        structure, "diluted" EPS. Under SFAS No. 128, "basic" EPS is computed by
        dividing income (adjusted for any preferred stock dividends) by the
        weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
        "Diluted" EPS is computed by dividing income (adjusted for any preferred
        stock or convertible stock dividends and any potential income or loss
        from convertible securities) by the weighted average number of common
        shares outstanding during the period plus the number of additional
        common shares that would have been outstanding if

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

        New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

        any dilutive potential common stock had been issued. The issuance of
        anti-dilutive potential common stock should not be considered in the
        calculation. In addition, SFAS No. 128 requires certain additional
        disclosures relating to EPS. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial
        statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. Thus, the
        Company expects to adopt the provisions of this statement in fiscal year
        1997. Management does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to
        have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

        In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
        Income." This statement establishes standards for reporting and display
        of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains
        and losses) in an entity's financial statements. This statement requires
        an entity to classify items of other comprehensive income by their
        nature in a financial statement and display the accumulated balance of
        other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and
        additional paid-in-capital in the equity section of a statement of
        financial position. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years
        beginning after December 15, 1997 and the Company expects to adopt the
        provisions of this statement in fiscal year 1998. Management does not
        expect this statement to significantly impact the Company's financial
        statements.

        In June 1997, the FASB issues SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments
        of an Enterprise and Related Information." This statement requires
        public enterprises to report financial and descriptive information about
        its reportable operating segments and establishes standards for related
        disclosures about product and services, geographic areas, and major
        customers. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning
        after December 15, 1997 and the Company expects to adopt the provisions
        of this statement in fiscal year 1998. Management does not expect this
        statement to significantly impact the Company's financial statements.

3.      SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

        Dega Technology Acquisition

        In July 1997, the Company closed a stock purchase agreement with certain
        stockholders of DTI Technology, Inc. (d.b.a. Dega Technology) whereby
        the Company acquired 95.56% of the outstanding shares of Dega Technology
        in exchange for 57,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Dega
        Technology develops computer software which primarily transforms paper
        catalogs into digital documents located on CD-ROM's and is a leader in
        providing electronic parts catalogs and service manuals for vehicle,
        equipment and machine maintenance. The acquisition will be accounted for
        using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of
        Dega Technology will be included in the Company's 1997 financial
        statements from the date of acquisition.

        Presented below are unaudited condensed combined financial statements as
        of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 to reflect the combined
        financial position and results of operations on a "proforma" basis as if
        the combination had occurred as of January 1, 1996.

        Unicomp, Inc.

        During 1996, the Company completed a joint venture agreement with
        Unicomp, Inc. ("Unicomp") primarily to export Toshiba telecommunications
        systems. However, in February 1997, and in connection with the Company's
        strategic redirection, the Company relinquished its rights under the
        joint venture agreement in exchange for a $250,000 note receivable. The
        note receivable bears interest at 8% per annum, is uncollaterized, and
        is payable with accrued interest on October 21, 1997.

        Private Placement

        Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Company raised approximately
        $10,000 in a private placement of 200,000 shares of its common stock.
        Related proceeds will primarily be used to pay for the costs associated
        with the Dega Technology acquisition and for working capital.

4.      CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE

        In December 1995, development of enhancements was discontinued in
        connection with the strategic redirection of the Company. At that time,
        capitalized software with a net book value of $74,133 was written off.

        Amortization expense approximated $83,000 for the year ended December
        31, 1995.

5.      PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

        During 1996, the Company retired all property and equipment that are no
        longer being used. Accordingly, such amounts were removed from the
        Company's accounts.

6.      BANK BORROWING

        The Company had previously established a $700,000 line of credit with a
        financial institution. The line of credit, which bore interest at 6.7%
        was collateralized by a certificate of deposit in the amount of
        $700,000. In December 1995, the certificate of deposit was redeemed and
        the related bank borrowing was repaid in full.

7.      ACCRUED EXPENSES

        Accrued expenses consist of the following at December 31, 1996:

8.      NOTE PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDER/OFFICER

        During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company borrowed an
        aggregate of $16,000 from a stockholder/officer. Related borrowings are
        uncollateralized, bear interest at 8% per annum, and provide for
        quarterly interest payments. The borrowings were due on December 31,
        1996 but were not repaid by the Company. Related accrued interest
        aggregated $699 at December 31, 1996.

9.      STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

        Common Stock Committed

        During 1992, the Company agreed to issue 100,000 shares of common stock
        in settlement of a lawsuit. In 1992, the Company recorded 100,000 shares
        of its common stock as common stock committed at a value of $3.125 per
        share, the market value of the shares at the settlement signing date. As
        of December 9, 1993, the Company had been unable to complete
        registration of the shares, and the settlement agreement was voided by
        the court. Consequently, the settlement agreement was set aside and the
        plaintiff reinstated his suit. The Company responded and initiated a
        counter suit and cross-complaint against the plaintiff. Effective
        January 1, 1996, another settlement was completed. According to the
        terms of this settlement, the 100,000 shares were given to the plaintiff
        who is authorized to sell up to 8,333 shares per month until December
        31, 1996. The Company is required to reimburse the plaintiff for the
        difference between the actual sales price per share and $0.90 per share.
        Accordingly, the Company has revised its estimate of claims settlement
        expense to reflect the estimated effect of the guarantee. Such revision
        in estimate resulted in a reduction of $206,500 from the previously
        accrued amount and is reflected in the 1995 consolidated statement of
        operations as claims settlement income.

        During 1996, the Company substantially satisfied its liability under the
        terms of the January 1, 1996 settlement. Thus, the Company again revised
        its estimate of claims settlement expense to reflect actual settlement
        amounts paid. Such revision in estimate resulted in a further reduction
        of $24,836 from the previously accrued amount and is reflected in the
        1996 consolidated statement of operations as claims settlement income.

        Common Stock Issuances

        During 1996, the Company issued 159,107 shares of its common stock to
        various consultants for services rendered. The shares were valued at
        $47,196, which represented the fair market value of the shares on the
        respective dates of issuance.

</TABLE>



        The net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax
        purposes at December 31, 1996 were approximately $4,171,000 and
        $1,181,000, respectively. These carryforwards expire beginning in 2002
        and 1999, respectively. The net operating loss carryforwards for tax
        reporting purposes and the accumulated deficit differ primarily due to
        the timing of amortization and depreciation, inventory reserves and bad
        debt expenses.

        As of December 31, 1996, the Company had research and experimentation
        credit carryforwards for federal purposes of approximately $52,700,
        which expire beginning in 2001.

        The utilization of a portion of the net operating losses may be limited
        under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code due to ownership changes.

                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


10.     INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

        At December 31, 1996, a 100% valuation allowance has been provided to
        reduce the Company's net deferred tax assets for the amount by which the
        deferred tax asset related to NOLs exceeded the net deferred tax
        liability resulting from all other temporary differences. The Company
        has provided the allowance since management could not determine that it
        was "more likely than not" that the benefits of the deferred tax assets
        would be realized.

11.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

        During 1995, the Company paid Mrs. Toni Rose a base salary of $30,000,
        as bookkeeper and office manager for the Company. Mrs. Rose is the wife
        of Mr. Elvin Rose, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

12.     CONTINGENCIES

        The Company does not have product liability insurance. Thus, the Company
        could be held liable for all damages or other losses resulting from the
        use of its products. Presently, management is unaware of any potential
        liabilities or contingencies resulting from product liability.

        The Company is not currently committed under leases for office space or
        equipment. During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, rent
        expense aggregated $0 and $41,503, respectively.

13.     SIGNIFICANT FOURTH QUARTER ADJUSTMENTS

        During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company reevaluated potentially
        obsolete hardware inventory, which resulted in an increase of the
        inventory reserve of approximately $25,000. The aggregate effect of this
        adjustment was a reduction of net assets and net equity of approximately
        $25,000, and an increase in the 1996 net loss of approximately $25,000
        or $0.01 per share.

        During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company wrote-off the remaining
        net balance of capitalized software costs of approximately $74,000 and
        increased the inventory reserve by approximately $23,000. The aggregate
        effect of such adjustments was a reduction of net assets and net equity
        by approximately $97,000 and an increase in the 1995 net loss of
        approximately $97,000 or $0.01 per share.
