NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
A. Basis of Presentation
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed and omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations, although management believes the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
annual report and most recent financial statements included in its report
on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1998 filed with the Securities
Exchange Commission.
The interim financial information included herein is unaudited; however,
such information reflects all the adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair statement of results of operations and cash flows for the
interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On October 21, 1992, the company entered into a limited partnership
agreement with several other limited partners and a sole general partner to
provide for management, funding, manufacturing and marketing of the Power
Cell reserve battery unit on a worldwide basis. The company initially owned
an 11% interest in the limited partnership, which may increase or decrease
due to the occurrence of certain events. The interest decreased to 7.35%
during fiscal 1996 due to the addition of outside investors, resulting in a
pro rata dilution. In addition, a separate license royalty agreement
between the Company and the limited partnership provides that the Company
will receive royalty payments on all Power Cell units produced and sold in
the United States and its territories. Royalty payments on international
sales of Power Cell units will be paid to individual international rights
holders, or their designees, some of which are affiliates of the Company,
and all of which are limited partners in the partnership, as follows:
one-third (33 1/3%) to J. C. Rambin; one-third (33 1/3%) to Rudy Marich;
one-third to Howard Farkas (75% of 1/3) and Burt Kanter (25% of 1/3). These
royalty payments will be due and payable when, and if, royalty funds are
received.
The contract agreement has no provision for direct funding of Power Cell,
Inc. Its earnings, if any, will be derived from an interest in the limited
partnership together with royalties, if any, from the license royalty
agreement.
On July 1, 1996, Reserve Battery Cell, L.P. (Reserve Battery) announced
initial market release in select cities of the Power Cell Reserve Battery
unit. According to Reserve Battery, the product will plug into a cigarette
lighter or attach directly to battery terminals and recharge a battery even
in extreme weather conditions (-10 degrees F to 100 degrees F) in a matter
of minutes. Also, these small units can be stored for years, do not need to
be recharged and never lose their power prior to activation. The Power Cell
has the strength to recharge a battery more than once for a few weeks after
it has been activated. It is a powerful 5 amp Hour battery and, with the
additional purchase of a Power Inverter, will operate small household and
other electronic appliances for hours during a power outage or emergency
situation.
Power Cell, Inc. has received information from Reserve Battery that, as of
June 30, 1996, funds in excess of $4,288,000 had been expended on product
development, capital equipment, operating capital, and marketing
activities.
The Company has been informed by Reserve Battery, Inc. that all marketing
and operations activities have ceased as a result of its inability to
source sufficient capital to sustain operation.
Management is currently evaluating its future course of action. To improve
its liquidity, the Company is negotiating for a sale of common shares to an
investor. Also, the developments herein should assist the Company in
reviewing the possibility of affiliating with other companies through
acquisition or merger combinations that would provide a financial basis for
a public or private placement of debt or equity. There are ongoing
discussions and analysis of several potential candidates that could provide
a solution to the financial requirements of Power Cell, Inc. to proceed as
a viable entity and/or an integral part of an existing operation. The
Company had a working capital deficit as of September 30, 1998 of $28,720.

Results of Operations
---------------------
The company has been engaged in organizational and capital raising
activities since inception through September 30, 1998. It has not incurred
major operational expenditures. The losses incurred since inception
primarily reflect legal, accounting, and administrative expenses associated
with the preparation of the merger documents and registration statement,
product development and arranging for the manufacture of its battery
charger product for test marketing purposes.
