ITEM 1. Description of Business
Introduction General
Introduction
Cetek Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), through its wholly owned subsidiary
Cetek Corporation (the "Subsidiary"), is engaged in the manufacturing and
development of materials such as ceramics. The Company has derived substantially
all its revenues from the fulfillment of orders for its contract manufacturing
operations. Nevertheless, its main focus since 1993 has been directed towards
the research and development of an improved manufacturing process for advanced
ceramics. Advanced ceramics are ceramics that require special engineering and
are used in electronics and other specialized applications. In 1999 the Company
did not derive any revenues from the sale of products utilizing its process.
The Subsidiary has been in continuous operation since November, 1987. In 1994
the Subsidiary was acquired by Darcy Corporation. Darcy had previously acquired
all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Cetek in a share
exchange, pursuant to which Darcy issued an aggregate of 13,845,000 of its
common stock to the holders of all the issued and outstanding shares of stock of
Cetek (approximately 91% of the outstanding Darcy shares, post acquisition).
The Company's executive offices and manufacturing facility are located at 19
Commerce Street, Poughkeepsie, New York 12603, telephone (914) 452-3510, fax
number (914) 454-3524. As used herein, unless otherwise indicated by the context
the term "Company" refers to the Company and its Subsidiary.
Contract Manufacturing
The Company has operated a contract manufacturing operation since 1988, handling
general precision machining, sheet metal fabrication and welding, electronic
manufacturing and testing, and general design of metal components and systems.
The Company as a contract manufacturer completes orders for original equipment
manufacturers and others. The Company completes the manufacturing in accordance
with the specifications of its customer. Upon completion the products are
shipped to the customer or other parties for assembly by the client. The Company
has a full array of equipment to fulfill its contracts which are obtained by an
officer of the Company. The Company does not maintain a separate sales force for
this purpose.
The equipment and personnel of the Company's fabricating facilities are also
utilized in the Company's proposed ceramic business. There are 14 employees
engaged in this business.
In connection with its contract manufacturing, since 1997 the Company has
maintained business relations with Pitney Bowes and Circon ACMI both of which
are unaffiliated with the Company. The Company's relationships with these
clients have accounted for approximately 80% of the Company's sales in 1998 and
1999. Pitney Bowes accounted for 61.3% and 55.7% of the Company's revenues in
1999 and 1998 respectively. Circon ACMI accounted for 22.6% and 31.6% of the
Company's revenues in 1998 and 1999 respectively.
<PAGE>
Ceramic Industry Background
Ceramics have been used by man for centuries in the form of bricks, tile, and
glass. In recent years, the processing methods have dramatically improved,
creating a new generation of advanced ceramic material which is lighter,
stronger and more durable than its metal counterparts. Advanced ceramic
materials can be broadly categorized as electronic ceramics and structural
ceramics. Electronic ceramics are used as substrates (or the base upon which
circuits and other components are affixed for electronic products.) The
substrates are used in computers, medical equipment, communication equipment and
consumer products. Structural ceramics used in aerospace defense design,
bioceramics and environmental products, heat engines, wear parts and cutting
tools. Structural ceramics, for example, have been used in car engines and
military aircraft and helicopters as form of bullet-proof window protection.
Advanced ceramics are expected to continue their growth. It is estimated that
the electronic ceramics will continue to hold the largest market share of the
U.S. advanced ceramics materials, while substantial growth will occur in the
structural ceramics market.
Cetek Process
The Company has been engaged in developing a process (the "Cetek Process") to
produce ceramic products at lower production costs with possible enhanced
qualities. Most ceramic products are produced by mixing various raw materials
(alumina, silica and dozens of other compounds) and then sintered or heated in a
high temperature furnace until the mixture becomes hard. Varying mixing
procedures may also be used as well as different sintering methods varying
temperature, heating duration and other factors. Thus, there are wide array of
variables in manufacturing specific ceramic products. The final ceramic products
have different properties of hardness, thickness, heat resistance, durability,
electric resistance and other properties depending on the various elements of
process used.
Generally, the surface of the final ceramic product is not smooth. This requires
machining, grinding and polishing to smooth the ceramic surface. These machining
steps add cost to the final product. Machining also lessens the ability to affix
electronic circuitry to a substrate. In addition, machining may lead to breakage
of the product and in some instances cause microfissures which reduces the
quality of the product.
Over the last several years the Company has been engaged in the development of
the Cetek Process. The process involves proprietary formulations, mixing and
sintering procedures and results in a ceramic product which is smooth and
requires little or no machining thereby reducing or eliminating machining costs.
Products manufactured with the Cetek Process have enhanced qualities because of
the absence of microfissures caused by the machining process. The Company has
utilized the Cetek Process to produce mulite, cordierite and perovsite and other
commonly used ceramic materials.
In the first quarter of 2000 and in 1998 and 1999 the Company produced various
samples utilizing the Cetek Process and have had the resulting products tested
internally and by third parties including an independent laboratory of a
university at which a director was employed. While the Company has not received
orders it has engaged in marketing activity. It has had discussions with several
potential customers and supplied products for internal testing by these
<PAGE>
potential customers. It is also working with a customer to develop
specifications for and testing a product which the customer may utilize. The
customer has agreed to reimburse a portion of the expense involved in developing
this product.
During the development period prior to 2000 the Company has derived no revenues
from its ceramic operations. However, in 1997 it performed an agreement by New
York State Energy Research and Development Authority relating to development of
certain sintering procedures used in the development of the Cetek Process. The
Company has entered into an additional grant to further develop the process.
Under the grant the state contributes funds to demonstrate the effectiveness of
the sintering process (which is utilized in the Cetek Process) by building,
operating and documenting the performance of the process. The Company is
obligated to expend funds for this purpose. The State is to receive a royalty on
future sales.
Nature of Company's Products and Services to be Offered
The Company does not anticipate maintaining an inventory or manufacturing
products for sale of off-the-shelf products. Rather, it anticipates its sales
will be made to fulfill orders for ceramic products in accordance with the
specifications of a customer. The Company anticipates products made with the
Cetek Process will be utilized for substrates for electronic components and for
structural materials.
Substrates are made in a variety of sizes and are used as base for electronic
circuitry. Each electronic product may require a different substrate. Generally,
after a ceramic manufacturer produces the substrates for an electronic customer
specifications, either a subcontractor or the customer attaches or sets plugs or
pins where the wiring and components are to be attached to the substrate for a
completed product. The Company intends to acquire the equipment necessary for
insertion of the plugs at a future stage of its development. Whether simply as a
supplier of ceramic material or full service contractor the Company intends to
market its services to manufacturers of various electronic components.
The Company will also actively market its special ceramic material to be used
for flat display panels. This is the use of an extremely thin (less than an
inch) display for electronic products (i.e., screens for laptops.) The ceramic
is used for (back panel of the display). With the increased interest in the
development of flat panel displays, the industry has attracted federal
investment. The Company also believes that the ceramic material back panel used
for flat panel displays will further be applied for use on aircraft panels,
operating room electronics and other medical applications.
Proposed Marketing and Sales
At the present time the Company is seeking to pursue its ceramic business in the
small to medium sized quantity order market for electronic ceramic products and
flat panel display product.
The marketing and sales effort will be carried by the President and independent
non-exclusive sales representative. The Company intends to enter into agreements
with several sales organizations for domestic sales and two for international
sales.
<PAGE>
The Company further believes that its marketing strengths lie in the fact that
the Company will offer quality products at competitive prices due to its
manufacturing process as well as in its ability to offer a complete
manufacturing and service facility in one location.
Employees
As of March 15, 2000 the Company employed 21 full-time employees, none of whom
are subject to employment agreements. None of the employees are members of labor
unions. Management believes that it enjoys satisfactory relations with its
employees.
Competition
If the Company obtains sufficient funds and is able to commence production of
ceramic material in commercial quantities, the Company will compete with other
manufacturers of ceramic products. Many of these firms have greater financial,
managerial and technical resources than the Company. The Company will be in
direct competition with large companies such as Kyocera (Japan), Coors (US) and
Phillips (the Netherlands), as well as a large number of smaller companies. The
Company's ability to be competitive in the future will depend on its ability to
demonstrate the cost and structural advantage of products made with the Cetek
Process. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into
such agreements and be competitive. The Company is an insignificant factor in
the contract manufacturing industry.
Research and Development
The Company has expended $41,747 in first quarter of 2000, $351,058 in 1999 and
$19,171 in 1998 for research and development. The research expenses included the
expenses of employees, various consultants, and the costs of supplies and
independent testing.
The Company has had its products tested by a number of independent laboratories.
sThe primary purpose of these tests is to enable the Company to gauge the
effectiveness of the Company's Cetek Process. The results of these tests are
made available to potential customers which generally also conduct their own
tests. Until his retirement in 1997 from Alfred University, one of the Company's
director's was a professor at this university, which provided testing. The
Company does not believe this relationship affected the validity of the tests in
any manner.
ITEM 2. Description of property
The Company's executive offices and facilities are located at 19 Commerce
Street, Poughkeepsie, New York where it leases approximately 20,000 square feet
pursuant to a lease that expires in October, 2001 The annual base rental for
this space, which was renovated in 1991, is approximately $90,000. The landlord,
who is the principal stockholder and chief executive officer of the Company, has
agreed to waive all payments for the rent while the Company is in default to a
lender.
ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings
Management of the Company is not aware of any legal proceedings, threatened or
pending legal proceedings, to which the Company is a party or to which the
property of the Company is subject

Recent Securities Transactions
The following sets forth information relating to all unregistered securities of
the Company sold by it in the last 3 years.
In March, 1999, the Company completed a private placement of its securities by
issuing 2% Series A Senior Subordinated Convertible Debentures. The Company
received gross proceeds of $600,000 from the sale of these debentures. The
debentures and interest were due March17, 2001, with interest accruing at 2% per
annum. The Company, at its option, at maturity may pay any remaining principal
plus all accrued interest in cash or common stock of the Company. The holder of
debentures are entitled, at their option, to convert all or any amount of the
debentures into shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price equal
to 75% of market. The notes were issued pursuant to the provision of Rule 504 of
Regulation D. The holders of the debentures converted the entire amount of
debentures into 678,745 shares of common stock. The issuance of these shares was
exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant
to Section 3(a)(9) thereof.
ITEM 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Financial Statements and related footnotes.
This report contains certain forward-looking statements under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the business of the
Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from these
forward-looking statements. These risk include:
- the failure to obtain orders for products made with the Cetek
Process;
- the failure to receive sufficient capital to commence ceramic
business and for operations;
- the inability to manufacture products utilizing the Cetek Process in
commercial quarters;
- products utilizing the Cetek Process in commercial quarters;
- the loss of contact manufacturing customers;
- change in technology.
Plan of Operation
The Company has incurred losses since inception. The Company has completed the
development of its Cetek Process for commercial purposes. During 2000, the
Company will seek to change the emphasis of its business operations from
contract manufacturing work to its ceramic operations. The Company is satisfied
that it is ready to market products utilizing the Cetek Process. Its main focus
during the year 2000 will be to explore the marketability of products
manufactured through the Cetek Process. The Company has held discussions with
several potential customers and supplied these potential customers with samples.
If it obtains
<PAGE>
sufficient customer interest it will seek financing of its ceramic operation
necessary to purchase any needed equipment and for operating expenses. The
Company will also hire additional employees for production and marketing of its
product. The Company also intends to pursue contract manufacturing operation but
will allocate more of its resources to its ceramic operations if the ceramic
operations increase.
Statement of Operations
First Quarter 2000 Compared to First Quarter 1999
The Company had slightly more revenues from operation in first quarter 2000 than
in the first quarter 1999 ($71,279 compared to $66,263). The net loss of the
Company for the first quarter of 2000 was $191,635 a decline of $60,170 from the
loss of $251,805 in the first quarter of 1999. The reduction resulted primarily
because we incurred interest expense, including non cash expenses of $135,842 in
the first quarter of 1999 due to our financing compared to interest expense of
$38,433 in the first quarter of 2000. During the first quarter 2000 we
nevertheless incurred increased research and general and administrative expenses
respectively of approximately $40,225 and $3,112.
- Year Ended 1999 Compared to Year Ended 1998
The Company had slightly more revenues in first quarter 2000 than in the first
quarter of 1999 ($71,274 in 2000 and $66,263 in 1999). The Company's net loss
declined from $251,805 in the first quarter 1999 to $191,635, however, incurred
a net loss of approximately $842,000 compared to 301,000 in 1998. This loss
resulted primarily from increased cost and expenses which increased from
approximately $674,750 in 1998 to approximately $1,196,000 in 1999. The increase
in expenses was in significant part attributable to an increase in research
expenses from $19,171 in 1998 to 351,085 in 1999 for the development of the
Cetek Process. In addition, interest expenses rose from $72,047 in 1998 to
$285,400 in 1999, due to a non-cash charge of $186,000 to reflect the conversion
of debentures below market value.
Liquidity
The Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $173,000 as of
December 31, 1999 compared to a working capital deficit of approximately
($450,000) as of December 31, 1998. The reduction of deficit is primarily
attributable to the sale of the Company's securities in 1999.
The Company however does not have sufficient working capital to sustain its
current levels of operations. During 1999 the Company has been unable to pay its
indebtedness on a timely basis. It has defaulted on several obligations
including a loan from Dutchess County Economic Development Corp. and amounts due
on equipment leases. In addition it has been unable to make rent payments for
its facility or to pay its chief executive officer salary. These payments
aggregating $100,000 have been waived and have been treated as a capital
contribution.
The Company was able to continue operations by financing activity pursuant to
which it received $1,000,000. In March 1999, the Company completed a private
placement of its securities by
<PAGE>
issuing 2% Series A Senior Subordinated Convertible Debentures. Through such
placement, the Company obtained gross proceeds of $600,000. It also obtained
additional funds of approximately $1,000,000 in 1999 from the sale of equity.
Unless the Company obtains additional funds from financing or other sources it
may not be able to survive and will not be able to promote the Cetek Process.
The Company's present liquidity problem stems from the funding requirements
necessary to develop the Cetek Process. The Company utilized the funds to
produce samples of its product which it either had tested by independent
laboratories or provided to potential customers. It also acquired and converted
equipment for the Cetek Process. The Company has estimated it needs additional
funds to commence commercial operations in order, among other things, to
purchase additional equipment estimated to cost approximately $450,000.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Cetek Technologies, Inc.
Poughkeepsie, New York
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cetek
Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiary (the "Company"), as of December 31, 1999
and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
(deficiency), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999. 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 supporting
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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Cetek Technologies, Inc. and
its subsidiary at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999 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 recurring losses from operations, is in
default on its loan obligations, has accumulated stockholders' deficit and a
working capital deficit. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are
also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

CETEK TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cetek Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiary (the "Company") are engaged
in developing, marketing and manufacturing ceramic material and components used
in electronics, medical and consumer products. In addition, they are in the
business of general precision machining, sheet metal fabrication and welding,
electronic manufacturing and testing as well as general design of components and
systems.
Nature of Business and Liquidity
The Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999
have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization
of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course
of business.
As described in notes 7 and 12, the Company was in default at December
31, 1999 and 1998 on its loan agreements and its capitalized lease obligations.
Additionally, the Company has incurred net losses of $854,000, $301,000, and
$346,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. As
of December 31, 1999, the Company has a stockholders' deficiency of $18,600 and
a working capital deficiency of $164,000. Management recognizes that the
Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to obtain needed
working capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and increase its
sales sufficiently to cover its costs and expenses. In an effort to increase its
sales and profitability, management is aggressively seeking new business.
Management's plans include possible strategic alliances and mergers or
acquisitions with other companies that may be compatible with the Company.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure 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.

CETEK TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(Continued)
Marketable Securities
The Company classifies its investment in equity securities net of
deferred income taxes as "available for sale", and accordingly, reflects
unrealized losses as a separate component of stockholders' equity (deficiency).
The fair value of marketable securities are estimated based on quoted
market prices. Realized gain or losses are based on the specific identification
method. The gross realized loss for the year ended December 31, 1999 was
approximately $26,000.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts
receivable. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependant on each
customer's financial condition. The Company controls its exposure to credit risk
through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures.
The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality
financial institutions.
Inventories
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods, are stated
at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sales is recognized upon shipment to customers. Provision
for discounts and allowances to customers are provided for in the same period
the related sales are recorded.
Depreciation and Amortization
Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided to reflect the tax effect of temporary
differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities.
The principal item giving rise to deferred taxes is the net operating loss
carryforward. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating
loss as the realization of this deferred tax asset is not more than likely.

(Continued)
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company records bad debt expense on a specific customer basis. As
of December 31, 1999 and 1998 no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed
necessary.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." The standard encourages, but does not require, companies to
recognize compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options and other
equity instruments to employees based on fair value accounting rules.
Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are assessed for recoverability on an ongoing basis.
In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of long-lived assets, their
carrying value would be reduced by the excess, if any, of the long-lived asset
over management's estimate of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows
of the related long-lived asset. As of December 31, 1999, management concluded
that no impairment exists.
Loss Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net
loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
year. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings
by the weighted average of common shares and potential common shares outstanding
during the year. Potential common shares outstanding at December 31, 1999, 1998
and 1997 related to 1,023,636, 108,000 and 120,000 warrants and convertible debt
to purchase common stock, respectively. During the three years ending December
31, 1999 potential common shares were not used in the computation of diluted
loss per share as their effect would be antidilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid
expenses short-term debt, current portion of long-term debt, current portion of
capitalized leases, accounts payable and accrued expenses it was assumed that
the carrying amount approximated fair value because of the short term nature of
these instruments. The estimated fair values of convertible debt subject to fair
value disclosure was determined by multiplying the number of common shares the
debt is convertible into by the quoted market price of the Company's common
stock at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

New Financial Accounting Standards
In June 1998, The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS No.
133"). This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments and hedging activities. It requires the recognition of
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measurement of those instruments as either assets or liabilities in
the statement of financial position and measurement of those instruments at fair
value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative is dependent
upon the intended use of the derivative. SFAS No. 133 will be effective in the
Company's first quarter in the year ending December 31, 2001 and retroactive
application is not permitted. Management does not believe that this Statement
will have a significant impact on the Company.
2. ACQUISITION
During January, 1997, the Company acquired all of the assets of C. W. Inc., a
company that manufactures ceramic material and components used in electronics,
medical and consumer products for $300,000 cash. The assets purchased consisted
primarily of machinery and equipment and customer lists. Subsequent to the
acquisition, the Company sold a majority of the machinery and equipment for
$250,000. Of the remaining equipment, $25,000 was capitalized and approximately
$25,000 was written off as unusable. The Company has recorded the acquisition as
a purchase. The results of the operations from the date of acquisition to
December 31, 1999 were not material.

5. INCOME TAXES
At December 31, 1999, the Company has a net operating loss ("NOL")
carryforward of approximately $1,991,000 for financial reporting and tax
purposes expiring in the years 2009 through 2013. The Company has not reflected
any benefit of such net operating loss carryforward in the accompanying
financial statements in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 109 as the realization of this deferred tax asset is not more than
likely.
The types of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities and their financial reporting amounts that give rise to the deferred
tax liability and deferred tax asset and their approximate tax effect are as
follows:

========== ======= ========== ========
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes. At December 31, 1999 and 1998 the Company recorded a full
valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets as the Company's ability to
realize these benefits is not "more likely than not". Accordingly, there is no
deferred tax asset included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

(1) During November 1996, the Company entered into a private placement of
securities, in which the Company raised $120,000 through the sale of Units. Each
"Unit" consisted of one $20,000 convertible promissory note bearing interest at
11% per annum and a redeemable common stock warrant exercisable to purchase up
to 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.50 per share expiring in
five (5) years from the date of issuance and expiring through December, 2001.
The notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the
Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1 per share, and are
convertible any time or by Automatic Conversion (based on the average of the
last bid price of the Company's common stock as listed on NASDAQ or national
securities exchanges, for a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days if
the price has equaled or exceeded $3.00 per common share). Due to the inability
of the Company to sell the minimum number of units required under the private
placement of securities, the notes are due on demand.
During 1998, one of the debt holders converted his note to 20,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock. In addition, $3,184 of accrued interest on the debt was
converted into 3,183 of the Company's Common Stock. For the years ending
December 31, 1999 and 1998 the Company repaid $10,000 and $8,000 to various
stockholders, respectively on the subordinated convertible debentures which are
in default.
(2) During June 1997, the Company entered into a private placement of
securities, in which the Company raised $16,000 through the sale of units. Each
"Unit" consisted of one $8,000 convertible promissory note bearing interest at
11% per annum. Each note is convertible under the same terms as (1) above. For
the years ending December 31, 1999 and 1998 the Company repaid $2,000 and $-0-,
respectively on the subordinated convertible debentures which are in default.

agreement with the Dutchess County Economics Development Corp. Consequently, the
remaining principal balance of $33,103 is due on demand and is presented as a
current liability in the accompanying balance sheet.
The notes are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company
and officer life insurance policies in the amount of $235,000. Additionally, the
building owned by Fayiz Hilal ("Hilal"), the Company's President, Chief
Executive Officer and major shareholder, has been pledged as collateral. No rent
payments may be paid to him while the loan is in default. (See Note 12).
(4) In March 1999, the Company completed a private placement of its securities
by issuing 2% Series A Senior Subordinated Convertible Debentures. The Company
raised $600,000 from the sale of these debentures. The debentures and interest
are due March 17, 2001, with interest accruing at 2% per annum. The Company, at
their option, at maturity may pay any remaining principal plus all accrued
interest in cash or common stock of the Company. The holder of debentures are
entitled, at their option, to convert all or any amount of the debentures into
shares of the Company's Common Stock. The conversion price for each share of
Common Stock will be equal to 75% of the closing bid price of Common Stock as
reported on the National Association of Securities Dealers Electronic Bulletin
Board for the day immediately preceding the date of receipt by the Company of
notice of conversion.

purchase warrants are amortized over the life of the related obligation.
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1999 is $36,750.
As of December 31, 1999 the holders of the debentures converted
$558,000 of the debentures into 16,117,419 shares of common stock. The
conversion price for the debentures was 75% of closing bid price upon
conversion. The Company recorded $186,000 of additional interest expense for the
year ended December 31, 1999 to reflect the conversion of the debentures below
the fair market value of the Company's common stock at the date of conversion
and is included in the accompanying statement of operations.

$42,000 were converted into 523,636 shares of common stock. An additional 37,690
shares were issued in lieu of interest in February 2000. The Company recorded
