ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

(a) Business Development

     (1) Immune Response,  Inc. was incorporated in the State of Colorado on May
24, 1984 as Med-Mark  Technologies,  Inc. for the purpose of  marketing  medical
products.  When the Registrant was unable to obtain suitable products, it ceased
operations and remained  inactive from July 1985 until November 10, 1986 when it
changed its name to Immune Response, Inc. From November 1986 until May 1991, the
Registrant was a biomedical  firm engaged in three levels of activity - clinical
testing, clinical research and basic research.

     While the  Registrant  established  and operated  the Clinical  Testing and
Research Division until May 1991, the Board of Directors,  following an analysis
of the results of the Division's operations, determined that the operations were
not commercially  viable and that it was highly unlikely that the Division would
ever be profitable. Accordingly, on May 10, 1991, the Registrant entered into an
Asset Purchase Agreement with Infinity Laboratories,  Inc. ("Infinity") pursuant
to which it sold to  Infinity  all of the  Registrant's  assets  relating to its
laboratory  services and paid Infinity a total of $15,623 in cash and notes.  In
return  for this sale,  the  President  of  Infinity,  who was the  Registrant's
laboratory  director  at the  time of the  sale  and  had  previously  been  the
president and a director of the  Registrant,  agreed to return to the Registrant
17,500,000  shares of the Registrant's  common stock owned by him; agreed to the
cancellation of stock options to purchase an additional 15,000,000 shares of the
Registrant's  common  stock owned by him;  and agreed to release the  Registrant
from any further obligations under an employment  agreement then in effect. This
sale was  approved  by the  Registrant's  stockholders  at a Special  Meeting of
Shareholders  held on June 3, 1991.  The  Registrant  suspended  its  biomedical
activities  following this transaction and has been  essentially  inactive since
such time except for evaluating alternative business opportunities.

                                      -1-
<PAGE>
     On  January 8, 1996,  the  Registrant  announced  that it had  executed  an
agreement to merge with Ocurest  Laboratories,  Inc.  ("Ocurest")  of Palm Beach
Gardens, Florida. Concurrent with executing the merger agreement, the Registrant
made a secured  loan to  Ocurest in the amount of  $125,000.  Ocurest  produces,
distributes and holds worldwide  patents on a new delivery system for dispensing
ophthalmic  drug  solutions  into the eye. On February 23, 1996,  the Registrant
announced the mutual termination of its merger agreement.  As part of the mutual
termination  agreement,  Ocurest  repaid the  aforementioned  loan with interest
during 1996. In addition, Ocurest agreed to pay the Registrant a fee of $10,000,
with  interest,  upon the  successful  completion of its planned  initial public
offering which fee was paid during the fourth quarter of 1996.

     On February 10, 1997 at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Registrant's
shareholders  approved a one for one  hundred (1 for 100)  reverse  stock  split
whereby  every one hundred  shares of the  Registrant's  $.000l par value common
stock were  converted to one share of $.000l par value common stock and approved
a reduction in the number of authorized  shares from  950,000,000  to 25,000,000
effective  March 3,  1997.  As a result,  the  Registrants  issued  shares  were
decreased from  312,470,000 to 3,124,700 and outstanding  shares  decreased from
294,970,000 to 2,949,700.

     (2)(3) During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Registrant has not been
involved  in any  bankruptcy,  receivership  or  similar  proceedings;  has  not
undergone material reclassification,  merger or consolidation;  has not acquired
or disposed of any  material  amount of assets  otherwise  than in the  ordinary
course of business;  and has not  experienced any material change in its mode of
conducting business.

(b) Business of Issuer

     (1)(2)(3)  The  Registrant  is  currently  an  inactive  company  which  is
evaluating  alternative  business  opportunities.  On July 31,  1996,  MacGregor
Sports and Fitness,  Inc. and Technical Publishing  Solutions,  Inc. completed a
merger through a tax-free  exchange of common stock and the surviving entity was
renamed IntraNet  Solutions,  Inc.  ("IntraNet") . IntraNet provides  integrated
solutions for the management and distribution of business  critical  information
contained in documents  using  proprietary  and standard  internet  technologies
through  web  based  internet  software,   electronic  document  management  and
on-demand printing. During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Registrant sold
27,500  shares of IntraNet  common stock for net proceeds of $89,504.  Following
the merger and a  subsequent  4 for 1  reverse-split  declared  by  IntraNet  on
October 15, 1996,  the  Registrant  owns 1,489  shares of IntraNet  common stock
which comprises the Registrant's only non-cash asset.

     During 1997, the Registrant evaluated several business  opportunities which
included  preliminary  investigation  and due  diligence.  Following the initial
review it was determined  that none of the  opportunities  fit the  Registrant's
criteria for a viable merger or acquisition partner. While the Registrant is not
limiting its search for business  opportunities to one industry group or sector,
the  Registrant's  management  believes  that a  viable  merger  or  acquisition
candidate  should provide the  possibility  for short and long term  stockholder
value by providing  the  opportunity  for a liquid  market for the  Registrant's
common stock. The Registrant is presently  seeking a candidate with a product or
service,  which may be in the development  stage,  that is proprietary and which
possesses the possibility for long-term maximization of stockholder value.

     (4) As the  Registrant  is  currently  inactive,  the  Registrant  does not
directly compete with any company, individual or organization.

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
     (5) The Registrant does not require raw materials.

     (6) The Registrant's business is not dependent upon a single customer, or a
few  customers,  the  loss of any one or more of  which  would  have a  material
adverse effect on the Registrant.

     (7) The Registrant  holds no patents or trademarks,  and has no interest in
any franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts.

     (8)(9)  The   Registrant   currently  is  not  subject  to  any  government
regulations which affect its business.

     (10)  During  the  last two  years  the  Registrant  spent  no  amounts  on
Registrant-sponsored or customer-sponsored research and development activities.

     (11)  The  Registrant  is  not  subject  to any  federal,  state  or  local
provisions  which have been  enacted  or adopted  regulating  the  discharge  of
materials into the  environment  or otherwise  relating to the protection of the
environment.

     (12)  The  Registrant's  executive  officers  are the  Company's  only  two
employees  and serve on a  part-time  basis.  The  Registrant  currently  has no
full-time employees.


ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

(a) Description of Principal Plants and other Property

     The Registrant's  principal office is located at 7315 East Peakview Avenue,
Englewood, Colorado 80111. The Registrant is provided space on a rent free basis
by a significant stockholder.

(b) Investment Policies

     The  Registrant  currently  does not  invest in real  estate,  real  estate
mortgages,  or  securities  of  persons  who  primarily  engage  in real  estate
activities.

(c) Description of Real Estate and Operating Data

     The  Registrant  does not own property,  the book value of which amounts to
ten percent or more of the total assets of the Registrant.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Registrant currently is not a party to any pending legal proceeding.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

(a) Market Information

     The Registrant's Units, Common Stock and Warrants have been traded as Units
on the  over-the-counter  market since July,  1988.  Trading in the Registrant's
securities was reported by the National  Quotation  Services "Pink Sheets" until
January 1992 when the Registrant's  securities ceased being listed. As a result,
there has been no known  trading  in the  Registrant's  Units,  Common  Stock or
Warrants for the years 1996 or 1997.

(b) Holders

     The number of record holders of the  Registrant's  Common Stock as of April
8, 1998, was  approximately  600 according to the  Registrant's  transfer agent.
This figure excludes an  indeterminate  number of stockholders  whose shares are
held in "street" or "nominee" name.

(c) Dividends

     Holders  of  shares of  Common  Stock of the  Registrant  are  entitled  to
dividends  when and if declared by the  Registrant's  Board of Directors  out of
funds legally available  therefor.  The Registrant has not paid any dividends on
its Common Stock and currently  intends to retain  earnings,  if any, to finance
the development and expansion of its business. Future dividend policy is subject
to the  discretion  of the Board of  Directors  and will depend upon a number of
factors,  including but not limited to future earnings, capital requirements and
the financial condition of the Registrant.


ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

     This Report may contain certain  "forward-looking"  statements as such term
is defined in the  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995 or by the
Securities and Exchange Commission in its rules, regulations and releases, which
represent the  Registrant's  expectations or beliefs,  including but not limited
to, statements  concerning the Registrant's  operations,  economic  performance,
financial condition, growth and acquisition strategies,  investments, and future
operational  plans. For this purpose,  any statements  contained herein that are
not  statements  of  historical  fact  may  be  deemed  to  be   forward-looking
statements.  Without  limiting the  generality of the  foregoing,  words such as
"may", "will", "expect", "believe", "anticipate", "intent", "could", "estimate",
"might", or "continue" or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable
terminology  are  intended  to  identify   forward-looking   statements.   These
statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties,  certain
of which are beyond the  Registrant's  control,  and actual  results  may differ
materially  depending on a variety of important factors,  including  uncertainty
related to the Registrant's  operations,  mergers or acquisitions,  governmental
regulation, the value of the Registrant's assets and any other factors discussed
in  this  and  other  Registrant   filings  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
(a) Plan of Operation

     Although the  Registrant  has  virtually no operating  overhead  costs as a
result of its current inactive  status,  certain funds are necessary for payment
of legal and accounting costs related to keeping the Registrant current with its
regulatory  filings  as well  as  certain  minimal  general  and  administrative
expenses.  In  previous  years,  the  Registrant  relied on loans  from  related
entities in order to meet its  operating  expenses  as well as minimal  personal
loans from the Registrant's  President as described more fully in Part III. Item
12, Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

     With the sales of a majority  of the  Registrant's  investment  in IntraNet
(f/k/a MacGregor Sports and Fitness, Inc.) during the fourth quarter of 1995 and
the first quarter of 1996, as well as the 1,489 shares still available for sale,
the Registrant has the capital necessary to fund its limited business activities
for the  foreseeable  future as it continues the search for  alternate  business
opportunities.  While the  Registrant  currently  does not  expect the level and
amount of its  expenses  will  change  significantly  during 1998 as compared to
1997,  should the  Registrant  identify and pursue a business  opportunity,  the
Registrant can expect increased  expenses  resulting from legal and other costs.
Such a change in the  Registrant's  business status as a result of identifying a
business  opportunity  which the Registrant's  Board of Directors feels would be
beneficial  for  the  Registrant  and  its  stockholders  may  require  securing
additional  financing  the  amount  and  source  of which  cannot  presently  be
determined.

     The  Registrant is not currently  engaged in any research and  development,
does not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant  equipment,
nor does it anticipate any changes in the number of employees,  which would have
any material effect on the financial condition of the Registrant.

(b) Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of
Operations

     Total  revenue for the year ended  December 31, 1997 was $3,181 as compared
to $92,851  for 1996 a decrease  of 97%. A majority  of the revenue for 1996 was
produced by the sale of a significant portion of the Registrant's  investment in
IntraNet.  While the  Registrant  still holds 1,489 shares of IntraNet,  no such
sales were made during 1997 resulting in  significantly  lower revenues,  all of
which  were  derived  from  interest  income.  In  addition,  during  1996,  the
Registrant  recorded  interest  income  from  its  loan  to  Ocurest  as well as
miscellaneous  income from a fee paid by Ocurest.  Total  expenses for 1997 were
$32,872 as compared to $21,415 during 1996.  Expenses increased 54% in 1997 over
1996 as a result of increased general and administrative  expenses as well as an
increase  in bad debt  expense  due to the  write  down of a note  and  interest
receivable.  This was partially  offset by lower interest expense as a result of
the  Registrant  extinguishing  all notes payable  during 1997.  The  Registrant
recorded a net loss for the year ended  December 31, 1997 of $29,691 as compared
to income of $71,436 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

     The gain on the  sale of the  IntraNet  shares  in 1996  accounted  for the
significant increase in the Registrant's  profitability for that year. While the
Registrant has an additional  1,489  IntraNet  shares  remaining for sale,  once
these shares are sold, the Registrant will have no significant assets other than
its cash balances and currently has no other means from which to produce  future
income.  As a result,  the  revenues  and net  income  produced  in 1996 did not
continue  in 1997 and are not  expected  to continue in 1998 in the absence of a
change in the Registrant's inactive business status.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
     The  Company's  net worth at  December  31,  1997 was a  deficit  of $2,206
compared  to a  positive  $27,578  at the year  ended  December  31,  1996.  The
Registrant's net worth will continue to decrease in the absence of a significant
level of revenues which will offset its minimal operating expenses.

     The financial  results  incurred  during 1997 are indicative of what can be
expected for 1998 should the Registrant  continue as an inactive company. In the
absence of the Registrant  identifying  and  implementing  alternative  business
opportunities,  the Registrant will most likely incur losses without a change in
its inactive business status.

     As of  December  31,  1997,  the  Registrant  had  made no  other  material
commitments for capital expenditures.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Section  16 (a) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934  ("Section  16")
requires the Registrant's officers,  directors and persons who own more than ten
percent of the Registrant's voting securities to file reports of their ownership
and changes in such ownership with the Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the
"Commission"). Commission regulations also require that such persons provide the
Registrant with copies of all Section 16 reports they file.

     Based solely upon its review of such reports received by the Registrant, or
written representations from certain persons that they were not required to file
any reports under Section 16, the  Registrant  believes  that,  during 1996, its
officers and directors have complied with all Section 16 filing requirements.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors
Immune Response, Inc.

We have  audited the  accompanying  balance  sheet of Immune  Response,  Inc. (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 1997 and the related statements of
operations,  changes in  stockholders'  equity  (deficit) and cash flows for the
years ended  December 31, 1997 and 1996 and for the period from  inception  (May
14,  1984)  to  December  31,  1997.   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 audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 audits provide 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 Immune  Response,  Inc. (a
development  stage  company)  at  December  31,  1997  and  the  results  of its
operations  and its cash flows for the years ended  December  31, 1997 and 1996,
and for the  period  from  inception  (May 14,  1984) to  December  31,  1997 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 8, the Company
has minimal capital  resources  presently  available to meet  obligations  which
normally  can be  expected  to be  incurred  by  similar  companies,  and has an
accumulated  deficit of  ($915,498)  at December 31, 1997.  These  factors raise
substantial  doubt about the Company's  ability to continue as a going  concern.
Management's  plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. The
financial  statements do not include any adjustments  that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

                          (A Development Stage Company)
                          Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
      
        Significant accounting policies are as follows:

a.   BUSINESS HISTORY
        
     Immune Response,  Inc. ("the Company") was  incorporated  under the laws of
the State of  Colorado on May 14, 1984 as Med Mark  Technologies,  Inc.  and was
inactive  during the period from July 1, 1985 to  November 9, 1986.  On November
10, 1986 the Company changed its name to Immune  Response,  Inc. and resumed its
organizational activities.

     The Company is in the development  stage as more fully defined in Statement
No. 7 of the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board.  Until the Company sold its
laboratory  assets in May 1991,  the Company  performed  research  and  provided
testing  facilities  for  disorders of the immune  system.  Although the Company
received laboratory test income and revenue from the sale of marketing rights in
1990 and early 1991,  the amounts  received  were minimal and did not  represent
revenues from the Company's principal planned line of business.  The Company has
been inactive since the sale of its lab assets in May 1991.

b.   INVESTMENTS

     Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted SFAS 115.  Accordingly,  the
Company's  investment  in equity  securities  of  IntraNet  Solutions  (formerly
MacGregor Sports & Fitness) is classified as available-  for-sale securities and
is reported at fair value of $8,097 compared to historical  cost of $3,958.  The
unrealized gain of $4,139 is reported as a separate  component of  stockholders'
equity.

c.   SHARES ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR SERVICES

     The fair value of shares  issued for  services  rendered  to the Company in
exchange for stock was determined by the officers and directors.

d.   INCOME TAXES

     The Company has made no  provision  for income  taxes  because of financial
statement  and tax losses.  At December  31, 1996 the Company has net  operating
loss carryforwards for book and tax purposes available as follows:

                       YEAR OF

                          Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

e.   NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

     The net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss)
by the weighted average number of shares  outstanding for each period shown. All
of the common  stock  issued prior to the public  offering is  considered  to be
"cheap"  stock in accordance  with Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  Topic 4d, and is
treated as outstanding  since  inception of the Company in the weighted  average
number of shares computation.

f.   CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company  considers all
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less to be cash  equivalents  provided  they are not  legally  restricted  as to
withdrawal.

g.   RECLASSIFICATIONS

     Certain  minor  reclassifications  have  been  made to the  1996  financial
statements to conform to the 1997 presentation.

Note 2: NOTE RECEIVABLE

     Included in the balance  sheet at December  31, 1996 was a note  receivable
and  interest   receivable   (both  net  of  reserves)  of  $6,338  and  $2,013,
respectively,  from MacGregor Sports & Fitness, Inc. See Note 3 herein. The note
bears  interest  at 12 percent  per annum.  During  1997,  this  receivable  was
determined by management to be uncollectible and was written-off.

Note 3: INVESTMENT IN INTRANET SOLUTIONS (FORMERLY MACGREGOR SPORTS AND
FITNESS, INC.)

     In January of 1994,  the Company  converted its Class B preferred  stock of
MacGregor  Sports & Fitness into 133,904  shares of  unrestricted  common stock.
This  conversion  was completed in April of 1994 resulting in the Company owning
167,360  unrestricted  shares of MacGregor's  common stock at December 31, 1994.
During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company sold 133,904 of the shares in the
open market for $208,567. During January of 1996, the Company sold an additional
27,500 shares in the open market for $89,503 leaving 5,956 shares still owned by
the Company.

     MacGregor successfully merged with Technical Publishing Solutions,  Inc. on
July 31, 1996 and the combined entity was renamed IntraNet  Solutions.  IntraNet
provides  integrated  solutions to large  corporations  for the  management  and
distribution  of business  critical  information  contained in  documents  using
proprietary  and  standard  internet  technologies.  In  October  1996  IntraNet
declared a 1-for-4  reverse stock split resulting in 1,489 shares still owned by
the Company at December 31, 1996 and 1997.

(a) One of the Company's directors is also an officer of this entity.

Note 5: SALE OF STOCK TO PUBLIC

     On July 5, 1988 the Company completed a sale of 900,000 units of its $.0001
par value common  stock in a public  offering.  Net proceeds  from the sale were
$700,239  after  deducting  the  Underwriter's  commission of $90,000 and direct
offering costs of $109,761.

     Each unit consisted of one share of the Company's common stock, one Class A
common stock purchase warrant and one Class B common stock purchase warrant. One
Class A unit  warrant  entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock
at $1.50 per share. One Class B unit warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
share of common  stock at $2.00  per  share.  The  Class A and Class B  warrants
expired on December 16, 1995.

     In October  and  November,  1988,  Class A warrants  to purchase a total of
54,700  shares of common stock of the Company were  exercised at $1.50 per share
for total proceeds of $81,950,  net of costs. In October,  1988 Class B warrants
to purchase  3,000  shares of common  stock were  exercised  at $2 per share for
total proceeds of $6,000. In January,  1989 Class A warrants to purchase a total
of 38,200  shares of common  stock of the Company  were  exercised  at $1.50 per
share for total proceeds of $57,046, net of costs.

     In  connection  with this public  offering,  the  Company  also sold 28,800
shares of its common  stock to the  Underwriter  for a total  price of $288.  No
warrants were exercised by the Underwriter.

     On  February  10,  1997 the  Company's  shareholders  approved a 1-for- 100
reverse split whereby every one hundred shares of the Company's $.0001 par value
common stock were  converted to one share of $.0001 par value common stock.  The
shareholders  also approved a reduction in the number of authorized  shares from
950,000,000 to 25,000,000  effective  March 3, 1997. As a result,  the Company's
issued and  outstanding  shares at both December 31, 1997 and 1996, as restated,
were 3,124,700 and 2,949,700, respectively. The financial statements herein have
been adjusted to reflect the  1-for-100  reverse stock split back to the date of
inception.

Note 6: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     During 1997 and 1996, the Company paid $2,000 and $1,400, respectively,  to
each of its three directors (1997) and two directors (1996) for their attendance
in the meetings held in each year.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

Note 6: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

     During  the year ended  December  31,  1995 and to the  present  date,  the
Company has utilized approximately 150 square feet of office space from Equitex,
Inc., a significant shareholder, on a rent free month-to-month basis.

     See Note 4, herein,  regarding notes payable to a related entity which were
paid off during 1997.

Note 7: SALE OF LABORATORY ASSETS

     In May 1991,  the  Company  sold  certain  assets  with a net book value of
$59,971 to the Company's laboratory director,  who was also the Company's former
President,  and also agreed to pay this individual  $15,623  ($10,000 cash and a
45-day bank note payable for the remaining  $5,623).  In return,  the laboratory
director:

     1) agreed to the return of 175,000 shares of the Company's  common stock to
the  Company,
     2) agreed to the  cancellation  of his stock  options to  purchase  150,000
shares of the Company's common stock at $.10 per share.
     3) agreed to release the  Company  from any and all  remaining  obligations
under his employment agreement with the Company.

     This sale of assets was approved by the Company's  stockholders  on June 3,
1991.

Note 8: CONTINGENCY

     The Company has  minimal  capital  resources  presently  available  to meet
obligations which normally can be expected to be incurred by similar  companies,
and has an accumulated deficit of ($915,498) at December 31, 1997. These factors
raise  substantial  doubt  about the  Company's  ability to  continue as a going
concern.

     The Company has no significant fixed commitments as of December 31, 1997 or
the present  date.  Management  believes  that the  remaining  minimal cash flow
requirements needed to pursue potential mergers or other business  opportunities
can be met through use of the  Company's  current  cash  balance and  additional
sales of IntraNet stock.
