                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

      Note 1  - Summary of Accounting Policies
                Nature of Business
                -----------------
                Tirex America, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under
                the laws of the State of Delaware on August 19, 1987.  The
                Company originally planned to provide comprehensive health
                care services to persons with Acquired Immune Deficiency
                Syndrome, however due to its inability to raise sufficient
                capital it was unable to implement its business plan.
                The Company had been inactive since it ceased operations
                in November 1990.

                In the Fall of 1992, a group of shareholders lead by
                Edward Mihal and including 16 other shareholders acting
                in concert with Mr. Mihal along with Patrick McLaren and
                George Fattell, individuals without any prior affiliation
                with the Company, became interested in the Company as an
                entity potentially suitable for merger or similar trans-
                action with an operating private company seeking to be-
                come public in this manner.  This group approached the
                Company's incumbent management with a proposal whereby
                they agreed to assume management control, make all de-
                linquent filings with the Securities and Exchange Com-
                mission, restore service by transfer agent and pay all
                other expenses required to enable the Company to begin
                trading its stock and completing a merger or similar
                transaction.

                In furtherance of the foregoing, on November 5, 1992,
                J. Richard Goldstein, MD, Peter R. Stratton and Robert
                Kopsack resigned from their positions as officers and
                directors of the Company.  From June 1989 until the
                date of such resignations, Dr. Goldstein was the Company's
                President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Stratton was
                Vice-President, Chief Operating Officer, Secretary and
                Treasurer, and Mr. Kopsack was the Company's Vice President.
                In resigning their positions, Dr. Goldstein and Messrs.
                Stratton and Kopsack acknowledged that they acceded to
                their respective positions and had received compensation
                in consideration of their representations that they would,
                and their beat efforts to, implement a business plan for the
                Company which would encompass, among other things, the
                establishment and operating of skilled nursing care facilit-
                ies for patients with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
                Compensation received by Dr. Goldstein and Messrs. Stratton
                and Kopsack consisted of cash payments, stock issuances,
                and the grants of stock options and/or stock purchase
                warrants.  As part of their resignations, Dr. Goldstein
                and Messrs. Stratton and Kopsack each executed releases
                whereby the Company was released and forever discharged
                from all debts, obligations, covenants, agreements,contracts,
                claims or demands in law or in equity, including but not
                limited to any stock options or stock purchase warrants
                granted or promised to them, which against the Company, 
                each ever had, or thereafter may have for or by reason of
                any matter, cause or thing up to and through November
                5, 1992.  Each of Dr. Goldstein and Messrs. Stratton
                and Kopsack also acknowledged the termination and rescission
                of their respective employment agreements with the Company
                to such persons as the Company should direct for the purpose
                of satisfying certain of the Company's obligations to
                third parties.  In consideration of the resignations
                and releases executed by Dr. Goldstein and Messrs. Stratton
                and Kopsack, Edward Mihal and each of the sixteen share-
                holders of the Company acting in concert with Mr. Mihal
                executed and delivered reciprocal personal releases to
                and on behalf of Dr. Goldstein and Messrs. Stratton and
                Kopsack.  In connection with the foregoing resignations,
                Dr. Goldstein and Messrs. Stratton and Kopsack appointed,
                as an interim board of directors, Patrick McLaren, George
                Fattell, And Edward Mihal (the "Interim Management"). It
                was the goal of the Interim Management to find suitable
                acquisition and/or development by the Company.  On Dec-
                ember 29, 1992, Edward Mihal resigned his position as an
                officer and a director of the Company and Louis V. Muro was
                appointed as an officer and director of the Company to fill
                the vacancy created thereby.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

      Note 1  - Summary of Accounting Policies (continued)
                Reorganization
                --------------
               On March 26, 1993, the Company entered into an acquisition
               agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Louis V. Muro,
               Patrick McLaren and George fattell, officers and directors
               of the Company (collectively the "Sellers'') , for the pur-
               chase of certain technology owned and developed by the Sellers
               (the "Technology") and extensive and detailed plans (the
               "Business Plan") for a business which will engage in the ex-
               ploitation of the Technology.  The Technology will be used
               to design, develop and construct a prototype machine and
               thereafter a production quality machine for the cryogenic
               disintegration of used tires.  Pursuant to the Acquisition
               Agreement, Sellers agreed to assign, transfer and sell to
               the Company all of their right, title and interest in the
               Technology and Business Plan in exchange for fifteen million
               nine hundred thousand (15,900,000) shares of the Company's
               common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Sellers' Stock")
               of which eleven million nine hundred thousand (11,900,000)
               shares were put into escrow.  The Business Plan and Technology
               were developed by the Sellers prior to their affiliation or
               association with the Company.  The Sellers were engaged as the
               Company's officers and directors for the purpose of imple-
               menting the Business Plan with the Technology or such other
               technology which they believed could reasonably satisfy the
               requirements of the Business Plan.

               Effective with the March 26, 1993, closing date of the 
               Acquisition Agreement (the "Closing Date"), the Company
               authorized an increase in the number of directors of the
               Company from three to six.  Pursuant thereto, the Company
               appointed Messrs. Kenneth Forbes, Nicholas Campagna, and
               Alfred J. Viscido to fill the vacancies created in the size
               of the board.  As an inducement to Messrs.  Forbes, Campagna
               and Viscido to join the board of directors, the Company issued
               250,000 shares of its common stock, $.001 per value to each
               of them.  The Acquisition Agreement also provided for stock
               issuances in  the form of finders fees.  Pursuant thereto,
               the Company issued  300,000 and 1,700,000 shares of its
               common stock, $.001 par value,  to Joseph Territo and
               Edward Mihal, respectively.

               Effective March 24, 1994, George Fattell resigned as an
               officer and director of the Company.  Per the terms of
               his resignation any future shares of the Company's common
               stock issued to Mr. Fattell are to be equally distributed
               to Louis V. Muro and Patrick McLaren.

               Effective January 18, 1995, Louis V. Muro and Patrick McLaren
               resign their positions as officers and directors of the Com-
               pany.  In addition to their resignations they acknowledged
               that none of the requisite performance levels for the release
               of any of the 11,900,000 escrow shares had been met and re-
               nounced all rights to such shares.

               Basis of Consolidation
               The consolidated financial statements include the accounts
               of Tirex America, Inc. and its subsidiary Tirex Canada.
               All intercompany transactions and accounts have been
               eliminated in consolidation.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

      Note 1 - Summary of Accounting Policies (continued)
               Equipment
               ---------
               Equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.
               Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of
               the assets by using the straight-line method of depreciation.

               Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred while
               additions and betterments are capitalized.  The cost and related
               accumulated depreciation of assets sold ore retired are
               eliminated from the accounts and any gain or losses are
               reflected in earnings.

               Organization Costs
               -------------------
               Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis
               over a sixty month period.

               Per Share Data
               --------------
               The primary income (loss) per share was computed on the weighted
               number of shares of the common stock outstanding during the
               period.  Common share equivalents were not included as their
               inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

               Income Taxes
               ------------
               The Company has net operating loss carryovers of approximately
               $2.4 million as of June 30, 1996, expiring in the years 2004
               through 2011.  However, based upon present Internal Revenue
               regulations governing the utilization of net operating loss
               carryovers where the corporation has issued substantial ad-
               ditional stock, most of this loss carryover may not be avail-
               able to the Company.

               The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Stand-
               ards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, effective
               July 1993.  SFAS No. 109 requires the establishment of a
               deferred tax asset for all deductible temporarily differences
               and operating carryforwards.  Because of the uncertainties
               discussed in Note 2, however, and deferred tax asset
               established for utilization of the Company's tax amount is
               loss carryforwards would correspondingly require a valuation
               allowance of the same amount pursuant to SFAS No. 109. 
               Accordingly, no deferred tax asset is reflected in these
               financial statements.


      Note 2 - Going Concern
               -------------
               As shown in accompanying financial statements, the Company
               incurred a net loss of $(360,219) during the six months ended
               December 31, 1996 and as of that date, the Company's current
               liabilities exceeded it current assets by $211,109 and its
               total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $174,803.

               In March 1993, the Company, which was still in the develop-
               ment stage, developed a new Business Plan.  The Company is
               in the process of constructing a production quality machine
               for the cryogenic disintegration of used tires.  The Company
               also plans to recycle used tires using ambient temperature
               disintegration equipment.  At December 30, 1996, the company
               is still in the development stage.  Fees generated from tip-
               ping and culling were insufficient to fund the current
               operations of the Company.  All of these factors create an
               uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a
               going concern.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Note 1 - Going Concern (continued)
              -------------------------
              The Company is currently in the process of formulating a plan
              to obtain capital through a merger or acquisition, which will
              provide working capital while the Company constructs its cryo-
              genic disintegration machine.  The ability of the Company to
              continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of the
              plan.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments
              that might be necessary if the Company in unable to continue as
              a going concern.

     Note 3 - Related Party Transactions
              --------------------------
              In 1994, a stockholder loaned the Company $5,000.  There are
              no terms for repayment or interest on these loans.

              On July 22, 1994, 3,000,000 shares of Tirex America, Inc.
              were released from escrow and issued to Louis V. Muro and
              Patrick McLaren (1,500,000 shares each) in accordance with
              the terms and provisions of the Acquisition Agreement dated
              March 26, 1993.

              In January 1995, the Company entered into employment agreements
              with the President and General Counsel whereby the Company
              will pay $250,000 a year plus benefits and $150,000 a year
              plus benefits respectively.  In January 1996, the Company
              signed an employment agreement with the Vice President in
              charge of Engineering for $150,000 a year plus benefits, All
              of the employment agreements call for three year terms.  In ad-
              dition to the employment services, the officers agree not to
              compete with the Company for the two year period following
              the termination of employment.  If an officer is terminated
              other than for cause or for "good reason", the terminated
              officer will be paid twice the amount of their base salary
              for twelve months.

              Included in accrued expenses at December 31, 1996 is $126,026
              of salary to officers for which the company subsequently issued
              common stock.

     Note 4 - Forgiveness of Debt
              -------------------
              In 1996 and 1995, the Company recorded increases in common
              stock and paid-in capital of $29,400 and $24,500, respect-
              ively, which was in recognition of the forgiveness of debt
              by certain related parties of the Company.

     Note 5 - Common Stock
              ------------
              During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company's Board
              of Directors has authorized the issuance of 2,000 shares
              of its common stock, $.001 par value per share.  These shares
              were purchased during the year ended June 30, 1990.  Inadver-
              tently, the Company failed to issue the shares at the time of
              purchase.

              During the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1993, the Company
              issued common stock to individuals for services performed and
              forgiveness of debt totalling $542,572 and $177,950, res-
              pectively.  Included in these amounts are payments to officers
              of the Company in  exchange for salary in the amount of $502,756
              and $150,000, respectively.  The dollar amounts assigned to such
              transactions have been recorded at the fair value of the services
              received, because the fair value of the services received was
              more evident than the fair value of the stock surrendered.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Note 6 - Stock Options
              -------------
              On May 19, 1995, the Company sold to a director of the Company
              an option to purchase 20,000 shares Of Cumulative Convertible
              Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $10 par share, exer-
              cisable during the two year period beginning May 19, 1995, and
              ending May 18, 1997.  The director paid $20,000 for the option.
              The term of the Preferred Stock purchasable under the option
              call for cumulative cash dividends at a rate of $1.20 per share
              and conversion into shares of common stock.  The conversion to
              Common stock ratio varies depending on when the conversion is
              made.  At June 30, 1996, the option has not been exercised.

     ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

          The following is management's discussion and analysis of signifi-
     cant factors which have affected  Registrant's financial position and
     operations during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 1996.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

          The activities of Registrant since its inception in 1987 have
     been financed by sources other than operations.  Such financing
     was principally provided by the sale of securities in private 
     transactions, as follows:
     <TABLE>
     <CAPTION>                                       Proceeds From
                         Year Ended                     Sales of
                          June 30th                    Securities  
                             <C>                           <C>
                            1996                         80,872
                            1995                         22,316
                            1994                        237,430
                            1993                         76,055   
                            1990                         80,812
                            1989                         77,000
     </TABLE>

           In addition, Canadian Government tax credits, grants and/or
      loans provided Registrant with an aggregate of $26,861 during the
      year end June 30, 1996 and an additional $45,796, during the six-month
      period ended December 31, 1996.

            As at December 31, 1996, Registrant had total assets of $212,569
       reflecting a nominal increase from the end of the previous fiscal
       quarter ended September 30, 1996 and an increase of $139,312, from
       the end of the analogous quarter in the previous fiscal year, when
       total assets as at December 31, 1995 were $73,257.  Such increase
       reflects, in the main part, accrued development costs related to the
       TCS-1 System.  As at December 31, 1996, total liabilities were $387,372.
       This reflects an increase of $202,350 from the analogous date in the
       previous fiscal year, when total liabilities were $185,022 as at
       December 31, 1995, and an increase of $156,889 from the end of the
       last fiscal quarter, when total liabilities were $230,483.  Manage-
       ment attributes such increases to accrued operating expenses and
       increase in deposit and loans payable.  Reflecting the foregoing,
       as at December 31, 1996, Registrant had a working capital deficit
       (current assets minus current liabilities) of ($211,109).  This
       reflects an increase in the size 
 
      <PAGE>                            12
 
       of the deficit from December 31, 1995, when Registrant had a working
       capital deficit of ($65,508) and an increase in the amount of such
       deficit since the end of the last fiscal quarter, when it was ($109,172).

            Registrant currently has no material assets and a negative
      net worth.  The success of its proposed cryogenic tire disintegration
      business and its ability to continue as a going concern will be depen-
      dent upon Registrant's ability to obtain adequate financing to complete
      the design and development of the TCS-1 System and to commence manu-
      facturing and sales activities related thereto.  While Registrant believes
      that it will be able to do so during the current fiscal year which
      will end June 30, 1997, it cannot, at the present time, give any
      assurances that this will in fact be the case.  


      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

           Registrant has never engaged in any significant business
      activities and had no revenues from operations during the six
      month's ended December 31, 1996.  Minimal revenues of $5,000
      were received during the analogous six-month period in the pre-
      vious fiscal year from discontinued rubber brokerage activities.
      Management has continued to devote all of Registrant's limited
      resources to activities connected with completing the design and
      development of the first TCS-1 System, commencing the manufacture
      thereof, and endeavoring to raise financing to cover the costs of
      such activities.

            From inception (July 15, 1987) through December 31, 1996,
      Registrant has incurred a cumulative net loss of ($2,761,516), more
      than half of which was incurred, prior to the inception of Registrant's
      present business plan, in connection with Registrant's discontinued
      proposed health care business and was due primarily to the expensing
      of costs associated with obtaining certain certificates of need
      ($309,000), officers salaries ($168,750), professional services
      ($171,703), rent ($92,335) and other start-up costs ($164,226).
      Registrant never commenced its proposed health care operations
      and therefore, generated no revenues from operations, Pursuant
      to Registrant's present business plan, it intends to engage in the
      business of manufacturing cryogenic tire disintegration equipment.
      At the present time, Registrant is engaged in completing the design
      and development, and commencing the construction of a production
      quality cryogenic tire disintegration machine based on its proprietary
      TCS-1 System technology.  Unless and until Registrant successfully
      develops and commences manufacturing and sales operations respecting
      such a machine, Registrant will continue to generate no revenues from
      operations.
