SEAHAWK DEEP OCEAN TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES CONSOLIDATED ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30 1998(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Seahawk Deep
Ocean Technology, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company) have been prepared in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include
all information and footnotes normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These
interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.
In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all
adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position as of June 30, 1998, results of
operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating
results for the six months ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1998.
NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATION
The Company earned a net profit of $106,847 for the first half of 1998 but has
incurred substantial net losses for each of the past several years resulting
in an accumulated deficit of $14,223,913 at June 30, 1998. At that date the
Company had negative working capital as indicated by current liabilities
exceeding current assets by $1,212,477. These factors raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the
Company is unable to continue as a going concern
NOTE 3 AFFILIATES FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Demand for Indemnity from former directors
In March, 1998, the Company received a demand for indemnity from Greg Stemm,
John Morris and Dan Bagley, all former directors and officers of the Company,
for payment of the sum of expenses they incurred in defending an action
brought against them by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
indemnification claim was made under Colorado corporate law. The Company has
received itemization of the purported legal fees and costs incurred in the
defense of the former directors and officers in the amount of approximately
$700,000. The Company resisted the claim and in December, 1998, the former
directors and officers filed a lawsuit pursuant to their claim.
The Company's directors have investigated the merits of the claim including
the fact that the Company formerly agreed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission that it would not pay the legal expenses of the former officers and
directors in their defense of the action in question.
The Company is of the opinion that the agreement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission takes priority over state law and in January, 1999,the
Company filed in the state court a Motion to Dismiss Complaint, a Motion for
More Definite Statement and Motion to Strike. At the same time the Company
filed a Motion for Preliminary and Permanent Injunction in the federal court.

transferred to Odyssey 1 million restricted shares of common stock in
Vanderbilt Square Corporation, and, in lieu of the agreement from Odyssey that
all future Pesqamar expenses would be borne fully by Odyssey, the Company
transferred 2.5% of its holding in Pesqamar to Odyssey.

Issue of Series 4 Preferred Stock
In November 1998, the Company designated 4,000 shares of its preferred stock
as series 4 preferred stock and issued 2,700 of the shares to nine
individuals, including Carl Anderson and the two executive directors, for a
total cash investment of $67,500.
Issue of Series 2 Preferred Stock
In March, 1999 the Company entered an agreement with Drexel Aqua Technologies,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, under which Drexel is to purchase 36,000,000
shares of the Company's Series 2 Preferred Stock for $500,000. The
consideration is to be paid at the rate of $50,000 or more each month and the
stock is to be issued on a pro - rata basis. On payment of the first $50,000
Drexel were entitled to appoint two directors to the board of the Company and
on payment of the second $50,000 Drexel were entitled to appoint a third
director. On full payment of the consideration Drexel are entitled to appoint
a total of four directors. The proceeds of the sale are to be used
specifically for current payroll, taxes, rent, administrative expenditures,
legal fees and the costs of shareholder meetings. At the same time the Company
and Drexel signed an agreement subject to due diligence, for the Company to
acquire the entire share capital of Drexel's wholly owned subsidiary, Sindia
Expedition, Inc.("SEI") for shares of Common Stock in the Company. The number
of shares to be issued for the acquisition of SEI will depend on the valuation
of that corporation. SEI is the sole owner of all the rights to a shipwreck in
Ocean City, New Jersey known as the Sindia.
Extension of Loan following request for conversion
During 1997 Carl Anderson, a principal shareholder of the Company, advanced
the Company $278,200. In September 1997 Mr. Anderson applied to the Company to
exercise his AH1 warrants and requested that the advances be converted into
2,140,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company had insufficient
unissued authorized stock and were unable to comply with the request.
In May 1999 the Company entered into an Agreement with Mr. Anderson under
which the $278,000 was incorporated into a convertible note with interest
accruing on an annual basis at 18% from September 1997. The note provided that
the loan and accrued interest would be repaid in cash or, at Anderson's
option, in the Company's common stock at the conversion rate of $0.035 per
share on December 31, 1999 (the "First Due Date"). The Agreement also provided
that in the event that the Company does not repay the loan on that date, the
Note will be extended on the same terms for one year to December 31, 2000, at
which time the principal and accrued interest must be repaid in cash or, at
the at Anderson's option, in the Company's common stock at the conversion rate
of $0.025 per share. As an incentive to enter this agreement the Company
extended the expiration date of Mr. Anderson's T1 and AH2 warrants to December
31, 2000, and reduced the exercise price to $0.05 per share.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997.
The net loss for the three months to June 30, 1998 was $244,449 compared to a
loss of $220,880 in the corresponding quarter of 1997.
Total revenues in the 1998 quarter at $55,000 were up $35,096 from the 1997
quarter. Total expenses of $255,997 were incurred in the second quarter of
1998, compared to $217,347 in the equivalent period in 1997. Operating
expenses Increased to $146,216 in the second quarter of 1998 from $78,895 in
the equivalent quarter in 1997 but there was a decrease in general and
administrative expense to $109,781 during the 1998 quarter from $138,452 in
the 1997 quarter. This resulted in the 1998 quarter's loss from operations
being slightly higher at $200,997 in 1998 compared to $198,253 in 1997.
The Company's cost of vessel operations in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was
$70,750 compared to $12,077 for the second quarter of 1997. In the 1997
quarter the RV Seahawk was laid up in dock awaiting work, and the expenditure
consisted mainly of dockage, insurance, minimum crew and maintenance costs.
However, in the 1998 quarter the crew costs of $39,775 and fuel costs of
$11,186 reflect the extra costs of offshore activity in that quarter.
During the three months ended June 30, 1998 the Company's share of
administrative expenditure of a South American joint venture amounted to
$20,464. There were no such costs in the 1997 quarter, and no further costs of
that nature will be incurred because a settlement agreement made in June 1998
with the Company's partner in the joint venture provides that all future
administrative costs will be borne by that partner.
Conservation and archaeology expenses were $3,000 for the quarter ending June
30, 1998 compared to $11,500 for the equivalent period during 1997. This was
a result of reduced activity in the conservation laboratory.
Depreciation was $34,414 for the quarter ending June 30, 1998, similar to the
$34,550 charge for depreciation in the equivalent period in 1997.
Rent was $17,588 for the quarter ending June 30, 1998 compared to $20,768 for
the equivalent quarter during 1997 as a result of a negotiated reduction in
annual rent.
Administrative costs decreased by $28,681 to $109,781 for the quarter ending
June 30, 1998 from $138,462 during the same period of 1997. The decrease
resulted largely from a reduction of $12,304 to $7,816 expended on travel and
subsistence expenses and lower legal fees at $6,791 compared to $17,038.
Interest expense increased to $38,452 for the quarter ending June 30, 1998
compared to $27,201 in the second quarter of 1997. The increase was due
largely to the effect of default interest on overdue notes.
Interest income was down to $1,247 for the second quarter of 1998 from $14,696
in the 1997 equivalent quarter because the Note receivable from Seahawk I,
Ltd. was repaid at the end of March 1998.
-13-
<PAGE>
The loss on investment in less than 50% owned entities was $6,247 in the 1998
quarter, down from $10,112 in the second quarter of 1997. The losses represent
the company's share of losses of Seahawk I, Ltd., Seahawk II, Ltd., and Eagle
Partners, Ltd., partnerships in which the company is the general partner.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
The net profit for the six months ending June 30, 1998 was $106,847, this
compared to a loss of $398,438 in the corresponding period of 1997.
Total revenues in the half year ended June 30 1998 were $562,606, an increase
of $527,814 over the 1997 equivalent period due to a $439,356 gain on sale of
artifacts and revenues of $108,250 from the supply of survey services. In the
six months to June 30, 1997 the Company received no revenue from either of
these sources. As a result of the higher activity, total expenditure in the
first half of 1998, at $617,961, was $229,299 more than the $388,662 expended
in the first half of 1997 and an operating loss of $55,355 was earned in the
1998 period compared to a loss of $353,870 in the 1997 period.
The vessel RV Seahawk was fully operational and working in the Caribbean in
the first half of 1998 whereas she was laid up without work for the equivalent
period of 1997. Consequently the cost of vessel operations, including $173,391
for subcontracted crew and equipment costs in the six months ended June 30,
1998 were $210,498 higher at $233,726 than the $23,227 incurred during the
1997 half. As well as the subcontracted crew and equipment costs, the 1988
vessel operations absorbed $12,136 in consumables, $6,581 for repairs and
renewals and $14,335 for fuel while there were no such costs in the period to
June 30, 1997.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 the Company's share of
administrative expenditure of a South American joint venture amounted to
$22,387. There were no such costs in the 1997 period, and no further costs of
that nature will be incurred because a settlement agreement made in June 1998
with the Company's partner in the joint venture provides that all future
administrative costs will be borne by that partner.
Conservation and archaeology expenses were $3,000 for the six months ending
June 30, 1998 compared to $24,046 for the equivalent period during 1997. This
was a result of reduced activity in the conservation laboratory following the
sale of the Company's artifacts.
Depreciation was $70,197 for the six months ending June 30, 1998, and $69,169
for the 1997 period.
Rent was $17,588 for the quarter ending June 30, 1998 compared to $20,768 for
the equivalent quarter during 1997 as a result of a negotiated reduction in
annual rent.
Administrative costs increased by $27,049 to $253,476 for the six months
ending June 30, 1998 from $226,427 during the same period of 1997. Most
categories of administrative expenditure saw small increases in the 1998
period compared to the 1997 period.
Interest expense increased to $105,739 for the half year ending June 30, 1998
compared to $55,336 in the first half of 1997. The increase was due to a
charge for interest on past due salaries being commenced in 1998 and to the
effect of default interest on overdue notes.

Interest income was down to $16,088 for the first half of 1998 from $29,244 in
the 1997 equivalent because the Note receivable from Seahawk I, Ltd. was
repaid at the end of March 1998.
Assets with a net book value of $12,751 were retired during the three months
ended March 31, 1998, causing a loss on disposal of assets of that amount.
During the first half of 1998 one of the Company's affiliate paid off its note
and account payable to the Company releasing a provision for non payment of
$742,301 which accounted for most of the $741,029 gain on investment in
affiliates for the six months to June 30, 1998. In the equivalent half of
1997, the loss on investment in the affiliates was $20,481. The loss
represents the company's share of losses of Seahawk I, Ltd., Seahawk II, Ltd.,
and Eagle Partners, Ltd., partnerships in which the company is the general
partner.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company's working capital
deficit decreased by $835,283 to a negative $(1,212,477). At December 31,
1997 the Company had a working capital deficit of $(2,047,760).
The deficit decreased because of a net operating profit before depreciation
during the period of $177,044, the sale the Company's artifacts and the
recovery of the account receivable from Seahawk I, Ltd.
Despite these profitable liquidations, the Company continues to have very
restricted liquidity. This situation results principally through the lack of
revenue from operations. The Company has sought to produce operational revenue
through the following:
1. Sales of subsea services to entities involved in shipwreck recovery
projects, which are originated by the Company.
2. Sales of subsea services to other entities.
3. Lease of ships and subsea equipment.
4. Sale of artifacts and artifact related merchandise.
Sales to affiliated project entities such as Limited Partnerships, depends on
those partnerships being properly funded. The existing Limited Partnerships,
Seahawk II, Ltd., and Eagle Partners, Ltd., are out of cash.
Seahawk II, Ltd. is out of funds and the partners have decided they are not
willing to invest additional funds to continue further excavation of the wreck
site. The General Partner is unable to identify additional working capital to
work on the Partnership's wreck off St. Augustine, and has asked the partners
on two occasions to vote on terminating the Partnership. The results of those
votes were inconclusive.
Eagle Partners, Ltd. is also out of cash but has continued its search for a
shipwreck, known as the Golden Eagle, believed to have sunk off the east coast
of the Untied States. The Company has in the past provided survey services to
Eagle Partners, Ltd. on credit but has in effect provided in full against the
account receivable by assuming losses on investments sufficient to create a
negative balance on investment in the Partnership that is equal to the account
receivable.

During 1995, Eagle Partners Limited raised funds to continue its search for
the Golden Eagle using the Company's services. On July 18, 1995 the Company
announced that Eagle Partners Limited had entered into a limited partnership
agreement with Sea Miners, Inc. a Baltimore, MD company, to resume the search
for this shipwreck. The name of the new limited partnership is Eagle Miners
Limited. The joint venture incorporates research by both parties concerning
the Golden Eagle and a pooling of resources to continue the search operations.
Under the agreement, the Company will continue to be the offshore contractor
to Eagle Miners Limited for all marine operations. The Company earned no
revenues during 1997 and 1998 from this Joint Venture but expects to earn
revenue during 1999 if Eagle Miners Limited can raise sufficient funding.
The Company is currently seeking to assist Eagle Miners limited in raising
sufficient funding to complete the Golden Eagle project. If properly funded,
the project will generate cash flow for the Company. Substantial cash would
be produced for the Company if the Golden Eagle is located and its cargo is
recovered and disposed of profitably.
The Company is reviewing other potential shipwreck projects and it is
anticipated that if the Company were to proceed with any of these projects, it
would help to form limited partnerships or similar entities for the purpose of
funding the projects. There is no assurance that any of the partnerships
would be successful in raising the necessary amount of funding.
During 1997 the Company generated over $114,000 selling its services to
shipwreck related customers. In the first six months of 1998 $108,250 was
generated by that means.
On March 19, 1998, Treasure & Exhibits International, Inc. entered an
agreement with the Company and Seahawk I, Ltd. to purchase all of Seahawk I,
Ltd.'s artifacts, their related documentation and all of the Company's
artifacts. The consideration was $822,056 in cash and 9,500,000 newly issued
shares of TEI's common stock, which were valued at the time of the agreement
at $0.17 per share or $1,615,000. Immediately thereafter, Seahawk I, Ltd.
repaid all its debt to the Company in cash and TEI stock, repaid other loans
to two of the limited partners and made a pro rata distribution to the limited
partners of the remaining TEI stock based on the limited partners' total
investment in Seahawk I, Ltd.
On July 20,1998, the Company agreed to sell its remaining holding of 5,302,084
shares in TEI to First Consolidated Financial Corp., a Florida corporation,
for a total consideration of $450,677 ($0.085 per share). The agreement
provided for the cash to be paid in five installments, $180,270 on the date of
the agreement and at least $50,000 during each of September, October and
November 1998 with the balance in by December 31, 1998. In the event, after
paying the first installment, no further payment was made until November 10,
1998, when the Company accepted a discount of $10,407 in return for the whole
of the balance being paid on that date.
Apart from seeking to raise revenue from assets the Company has also sought to
raise cash from issues of stock and conserve cash by the conversion of debt
into equity.

During 1997 the Company issued 270,185 shares of its common stock for $36,000
in cash and 333,333 shares in payment of an overdue Note for $50,000. In the
same year the Company received $319,000 in loans from various individuals
$46,000 of which was later converted into 256,000 shares of common stock. In
February 1998, the Company issued 550,000 shares of Series 3 preferred stock
in payment of a $55,000 debt to a supplier. In October 1998, the Company
issued 2,460 shares of its Series 4 preferred stock to 9 investors for a total
of $61,500.
In March, 1999 the Company entered an agreement with Drexel Aqua Technologies,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, under which Drexel is to purchase 36,000,000
shares of the Company's Series 2 Preferred Stock for $500,000. The
consideration is to be paid at the rate of $50,000 or more each month and the
stock is to be issued on a pro-rata basis. On payment of the first $50,000
Drexel were entitled to appoint two directors to the board of the Company and
on payment of the second $50,000 Drexel were entitled to appoint a third
director. On full payment of the consideration Drexel are entitled to appoint
a total of four directors.
The proceeds of the sale are to be used specifically for current payroll,
taxes, rent, administrative expenditures, legal fees and the costs of
shareholder meetings. At the same time the Company and Drexel signed an
agreement subject to due diligence, for the Company to acquire the entire
share capital of Drexel's wholly owned subsidiary, Sindia Expedition,
Inc.("SEI") for shares of Common Stock in the Company. The number of shares to
be issued for the acquisition of SEI will depend on the valuation of that
corporation. SEI is the sole owner of all the rights to a shipwreck in Ocean
City, New Jersey known as the Sindia.
The receipts from the Drexel private placement will enable the Company to pay
its day to day expenses while the installments are received. In order for the
Company to remain in business beyond that it is necessary for the Company to
pursue charter and contract work, generate new sources of revenue or raise
additional financing. The Company's current and future efforts to obtain
additional financing will concentrate on offering additional equity to
investors until such time as the Company's operational cash flow is self-
supporting.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company has reviewed the effect that the year 2000 will have on its
essential computer systems, especially those related to its ongoing operations
and its internal control systems, including the preparation of financial
information.
The Company's computer systems are used primarily for basic accounting, word
processing, spreadsheet applications and access to the inter-net and world-
wide web.
The Company employs four PC computers with year 2000 compliant hardware. The
Company does not depend on any specialized computer hardware that may become
non-functional due to year 2000 problems.
The Company utilizes commonly used software packages, the vendors of which
have all addressed the issue of year 2000 compliance, and the Company does not
foresee any year 2000 related software problems that will not be averted by
the cost free installation of simple updates.
The Company believes that there will be no significant adverse effect on its
operations or accounting records related to the year 2000.
