                                    PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS

BACKGROUND:

Commercial Labor Management, Inc. is a Nevada corporation (the "Company")
organized on October 18, 1988 with the initial name Tokyo Raiders, Inc.  It
subsequently changed its name to Club USPN, Inc., then to XL Corp. and then to
Commercial Labor Management, Inc.  The 

                                     - 3 -
<PAGE>

Company was incorporated for the purpose of engaging in any lawful business, 
with its original purpose to evaluate and acquire one or more unspecified 
businesses or properties.  Until May 1990, the Company was a developmental 
stage enterprise raising capital, searching for an acquisition, and acquiring 
7.5 acres of undeveloped residential land in New Jersey, at which time it 
changed its name to Club USPN, Inc.  An acquisition of a pizza marketing 
network company in 1990 was mutually rescinded on September 30, 1990.

Principal operations of the Company were not reestablished until May 10, 1993,
when the Company agreed to acquire all of the shares of SONO International, a
Nevada corporation, effective on June 9, 1993, in exchange for 625,000 shares of
the Company's common stock.  SONO International ("SI") was organized in Nevada
on July 2, 1992, to provide contract manufacturing and maquiladora (shelter)
services in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, with four wholly-owned
subsidiaries:  WIRETECH and EXCEL Mexican Manufacturing (both Nevada
corporations), and WIRETECH de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., and Operadora de Shelters,
S.A. de C.V. (both Mexican corporations).

On September 30, 1994, the Company sold its SI operations unit to SI's former
stockholders, and received in return 619,200 shares of the Company's common
stock held by those former SI stockholders.  The Company's motivation for this
transaction was due to the substantial losses incurred by the SI unit, without
signs of immediate improvement.  The shares received back by the Company
provided the Company with a reduction in share capitalization which could be
used in acquiring or merging with a more promising operating company.

On March 21, 1995, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization with Commercial Labor Management, Inc. pursuant to which the
Company acquired 100% of the total issued and outstanding common and preferred
stock of Commercial Labor Management, Inc. in exchange for 1,928,330 shares of
the Company's common stock.  Effective July 1, 1995, the Company and Commercial
Labor Management, Inc. entered into a Rescission Agreement pursuant to which
they mutually agreed to rescind the acquisition because the Company did not
believe that it had received adequate consideration for its purchase.  As a
result, the Company received a return of its 1,928,330 shares of common stock
which have been cancelled, and the Company tendered back all of the shares of
Commercial Labor Management, Inc. which it owned.  The Company is now seeking to
make another business acquisition or enter into another business combination
with an operating entity.


EMPLOYEES:

The Company does not currently have any employees.  The executive officers of
the Company are not currently paid any salary or other compensation for their
services.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company owns 7.5 acres of undeveloped residential land in the township of
Howell, County of Monmouth, in the State of New Jersey.  The land was originally
transferred to the Company in April 1990 and is encumbered by a first mortgage
in the principal amount of $81,776, bearing simple interest at the rate of 12%
per annum, payable upon demand.  The Company intends to sell this property if
satisfactory terms can be reached.  The Company does not presently lease any
office facilities.  The leasing of office facilities is pending the acquisition
of or merger with another business which has not yet been identified.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings to which
it is or may be subject.


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

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

BACKGROUND:

During the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996 the Company continued to search
for and evaluate operating businesses for potential acquisition, although no
offers were made by the Company.  The search for a new business acquisition was
only conducted sporadically because management, which was not paid any
compensation by the Company during the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996, was
able to dedicate only a limited amount of time to the Company's affairs. 
Management plans to update the Company's reports to the Securities and Exchange
Commission in 1997 and intensify its focus on the Company's goal of acquiring or
entering into a business combination with a new operating business.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

The Company did not incur operating expenses or earn revenue during the fiscal
year ending December 31, 1996.  At the end of the year, the Company wrote off a
$180,000 demand note receivable from Edward L. Torres, the Company's President
and Chairman of the Board of Directors, as an uncollectible debt.  See "CERTAIN
RELATED TRANSACTIONS."  Mr. Torres was paid no compensation by the Company
during the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996.  He has been providing services
to the Company in its endeavor to update its financial statements and public
reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The Company has no working capital and had a working capital deficit (i.e.,
current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $114,164 as of December 31,
1996.  The current liabilities are comprised of accounts payable to the
Company's independent certified public accountants for professional services
rendered and a demand note in the amount of $88,289 (as of December 31, 1996)
secured by a first mortgage on the Company's land in New Jersey.  The Company
presently has no financial resources to pay its accounts payable.  The Company
may sell or convey the land in order to repay the first mortgage.  The Company
has no operations and would have to raise capital by issuing stock or incurring
borrowings in order to repay its accounts payable.  There is no assurance that
the Company will be able to raise capital or borrow funds in the future, or
acquire an operating business with revenues.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

On March 21, 1995, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization with Commercial Labor Management, Inc. pursuant to which it
acquired 100% of the total issued and outstanding common and preferred stock of
Commercial Labor Management, Inc. from Edward L. Torres in exchange for
1,923,380 shares of newly issued common stock of the Company.  Upon the closing
of the reorganization,  Mr. Torres became the President of the Company as well
as remaining the President of its wholly owned subsidiary, Commercial Labor
Management, Inc.  As it became apparent that the reorganization would be
mutually rescinded, Mr. Torres temporarily resigned from his positions as
President of the Company while the Rescission Agreement was negotiated, executed
and implemented.  Mr. Torres tendered all shares of the Company which had been
issued to him back to the Company pursuant to the Rescission Agreement. 
Commercial Labor Management, Inc. ceased to conduct business on July 30, 1995
after the rescission, and Mr. Torres then became the President and Chairman of
the Board of Directors of the Company.  See "Item 1.  BUSINESS - Background."  


On July 1, 1995, the Company received a noninterest bearing demand note payable
to it by 

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>

Edward L. Torres, the owner of Commercial Labor Management, Inc., in 
connection with the Rescission Agreement entered into by the Company and 
Commercial Labor Management, Inc. effective July 1, 1995.  Pursuant to the 
demand note, Mr. Torres agreed to treat the $180,000 expended by the Company 
in connection with its attempted acquisition of Commercial Labor Management, 
Inc. as an advance by the Company to Mr. Torres.  Mr. Torres agreed to repay 
$180,000 to the Company upon demand.  Commercial Labor Management, Inc. ceased 
conducting business in July 1995 and the Company is currently not paying Mr. 
Torres any compensation for his services as an officer or director of the 
Company. 

On December 31, 1996, the Company wrote off the $180,000 note payable to it by
Edward L. Torres, its President and Chairman of the Board of Directors, as an
uncollectible debt.  The Company believes that Mr. Torres does not have the
financial capability to repay the note.  Furthermore, since July 1995 Mr. Torres
has been providing valuable services for the Company for which he has received
no compensation to date.  The Company is contemplating issuing shares of its
common stock to Mr. Torres as compensation for his services to the Company.  The
Company is also contemplating issuing shares of its common stock to Mark French,
the corporate Secretary and a director, in consideration for services rendered
by him for the Company since March 21, 1995.  The number of shares of common
stock to be issued to Mr. Torres and Mr. French for services rendered has not
yet been determined.

                        INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Commercial Labor Management

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Commercial Labor Management,
Inc. (a Nevada corporation) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related
statements of income, stockholder's equity and retained earnings, and cash flows
for the years then ended.  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 audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  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 Commercial Labor Management,
Inc. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                           NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT
                                  DECEMBER 31, 1996


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

   GENERAL:

   Commercial Labor Management, Inc. (formerly XL Corp.) is a Nevada 
   Corporation (the "Company") was organized October 19, 1988.

   The Company was originally incorporated in Nevada under the Tokyo Raiders 
   on October 19, 1988.  In 1990, the Company acquired certain rights to a 
   pizza franchise and changed its name to Club USPN, Inc.  In June of 1993, 
   the Company acquired Sono International, Inc., but those operations were 
   discontinued and the shares of Sono were sold to the original shareholders 
   of Sono.  In March of 1995 the Board approved the merger with Commercial 
   Labor Management which was handled as a reverse merger, and also approved 
   a name change to Commercial Labor Management.  However, that merger was 
   rescinded and never completed.  The Company is currently seeking other 
   potential mergers or acquisitions.

   INCOME TAX REPORTING:

   The Company files a corporate tax return in the U.S.

   EARNINGS PER SHARE:

   The calculations of earnings per share was determined by dividing the net 
   income or loss by the computed weighted average number of common shares 
   outstanding during the applicable period, adjusted for the 1 for 3 reverse 
   split effected in March 20, 1995. The weighted average calculation is as 
   follows: No change in 1996 so the weighted average equals the number of 
   shares outstanding of 9,264,585.

   INCOME TAXES:

   In December 1992 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
   of Accounting Standards Number 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (FASB 
   109). Adoption of FASB 109 is required for fiscal years beginning after 
   December 15, 1992.  The Company follows the requirements set forth in FASB 
   109.

2. PAID IN CAPITAL

   Paid in capital is made up in part by contributions of office furniture & 
   equipment, manufacturing equipment, trade receivable, and accounts payable 
   in exchange for common stock.  Common stock was issued to Shareholder's of 
   record in exchange for these net assets.  Also, in the fourth quarter of 
   1994 the Company issued some common stock to individuals to whom money was 
   owed for professional services rendered, prior to the sale-back of 9/30/94.

                               DECEMBER 31, 1996


3. CAPITAL STOCK:

   PREFERRED CONVERTIBLE STOCK

   Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at 
   certain times or on the occurrence of certain events, into shares of 
   Company Common Stock valued at 70% of the Market Place.  The Company 
   authorized 1,000 shares and there were 180 shares issued and outstanding 
   as of December 31, 1996.  These shares have been converted to common stock 
   as of December 31, 1996.

   COMMON STOCK

   The authorized capital stock of the company consists of Common Stock.  
   Authorized shares of stock at September 30, 1995 were 15,000,000.  There 
   are 9,264,584 shares outstanding as of December 31, 1996.

   The issuance for the CLM acquisition and anti-dilutive clause were made on 
   9/30/95.

5. LAND:

   Land consist of 7 1/2 residential acres of undeveloped land, in the 
   township of Howell, County of Monmouth, in the state of New Jersey.  The 
   property was transferred to XL Corp. In April of 1990 at the historical 
   cost of $380,000 which was the same as appraised value, along with a 
   mortgage in the original amount of $50,000.

5. TAX BENEFIT:

   The Company has a loss carryforward in the amount of $615,784 available to 
   offset future taxable income.  These losses expire as they offset income 
   or can be carryforward for a maximum of 15 years.  The Company believes 
   it will use the credit before it expires.  However, no estimates of future 
   income are available so the benefit is reflected as a long-term asset.

6. NOTE RECEIVABLE:

   In anticipation of an acquisition or merger, the Company advances $180,000 
   to Commercial Labor Management (Sole-Proprietorship).  The management of 
   the Sole-Proprietorship had agreed to repay the note by September 10, 1996 
   with 10% interest.  The note was written off as a bad debt because 
   management considered it to be uncollectable.
