NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
NOTE A - THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Surgical Innovations & Services, Inc. (SIS or the Company) was founded in
1993 to create a contract sales and distribution company providing laser
services to hospitals. SIS is headquartered in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and provides
certified technicians to operate surgical lasers on a fee-per-case basis. SIS
operates lasers for doctors performing urological, gynecological, cosmetic, and
orthopedic procedures primarily in hospitals in the Southeastern United States.
NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent amounts due from clients for services
provided by the Company. Such amounts are recorded net of estimated allowances
for bad debts. The Company regularly reviews its accounts receivable and makes
provisions for potentially uncollectible balances. At December 31, 1998,
management believes the Company had incurred no material impairments to the
carrying values of its accounts receivable, other than uncollectible amounts for
which provisions have been made.
2. Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of disposable medical supplies and equipment
which the Company considers finished goods. Inventories are stated at the lower
of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.
3. Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures
for major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized,
while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when
incurred.
Laser units and laser accessories used for sales evaluation and
demonstration purposes or those units/accessories used for development and
medical training are capitalized and included in property and equipment. These
capitalized units and accessories are being depreciated on a straight-line basis
over a period of up to ten years.
4. Revenues and Expenses
The Company's revenues are primarily derived from the performance of laser
procedures under service contracts with hospitals and sales of disposable
products used in conjunction with laser procedures. Revenues are recorded at the
time services are performed or products are used. Cost of revenues consists
primarily of the cost of disposable medical supplies and equipment used during
the laser procedures and related labor costs.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
5. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
6. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
of, SIS is required to evaluate the impairment of long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets on a periodic basis. SIS reviews the
realizability of its long-lived assets by analyzing the projected undiscounted
cash flows and adjusts the net book value of the recorded assets when necessary.
No such adjustments have been recorded in 1998.
7. Concentrations
In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit to its
customers, which are primarily alternate-site health care providers. At December
31, 1998, approximately 12%, or $30,000, of accounts receivable was concentrated
in one customer. Additionally, approximately 14%, or $304,000, of revenues were
generated from one customer. Also, the Company purchases the majority of its
laser supplies from one supplier.
8. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes under the liability method. Under
the liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of
assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which
the differences are expected to reverse. The principal difference between assets
and liabilities for financial statement and tax return purposes is accelerated
depreciation.
NOTE C - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET
As of December 31,1998, property and equipment consists of:
Useful lives Amount
------------ ----------
Laser equipment 10 years $2,117,180
Vehicles 5 years 267,313
Computer equipment 3-5 years 39,895
Furniture and office equipment 7 years 13,013

primarily due to the effect of state income taxes and the establishment during
1998 of a valuation reserve of $92,000 against deferred tax assets.
The tax effects of temporary differences and carryforwards which gave rise
to a significant portion of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31,
1998 were as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
1. THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Surgical Innovations & Services, Inc. ("SIS" or the "Company") was founded
in 1993 to create a contract sales and distribution company providing laser
services to hospitals. SIS is headquartered in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and provides
a certified technician to operate surgical lasers on a fee-per-case basis. SIS
operates lasers for doctors performing urological, gynecological, cosmetic, and
orthopedic procedures primarily in hospitals in the Southeastern United States.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent amounts due from clients for services
provided by the Company. Such amounts are recorded net of estimated allowances
for bad debts. The Company regularly reviews its accounts receivable and makes
provision for potentially uncollectible balances. At December 31, 1999,
management believes the Company had incurred no material impairments to the
carrying values of its accounts receivable, other than uncollectible amounts for
which provisions had been made.
Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of disposable medical supplies and equipment.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or
market.
Property, Equipment, and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures
for major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized,
while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred.
Laser units and laser accessories used for sales evaluation and
demonstration purposes or those units/accessories used for development and
medical training are capitalized and included in property and equipment. These
capitalized units and accessories are being depreciated on a straight-line basis
over a period of up to 10 years.
Revenues and Expenses
The Company's revenues are primarily derived from the performance of laser
procedures under service contracts with hospitals and sales of disposable
products used in conjunction with laser procedures. Revenues are recorded at the
time services are performed or products are used. Cost of revenues consists
primarily of the cost of disposable medical supplies and equipment used during
the laser procedures and related labor costs.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share ("EPS") are calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
There are no dilutive shares issued or outstanding for the year ended December
31, 1999; therefore, basic and diluted EPS are equal.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Pursuant to SFAS 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, SIS is required to evaluate the
impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets on a
periodic basis. SIS reviews the realizability of its long-lived assets by
analyzing the projected undiscounted cash flows and adjusts the net book value
of the recorded assets when necessary. No such adjustments have been recorded in

6. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
SIS has a defined contribution retirement plan that provides certain
employees an opportunity to accumulate funds for their retirement. The Plan is a
simple IRA and provides for discretionary dollar for dollar matching
contributions by SIS up to 3% of the employee's salary, up to a maximum of
$6,000 of the employee's compensation. SIS made a matching contribution of
$6,687 in 1999.

Deferred 73,037
-------
Total $73,037
=======
The provision for income taxes differed from the amount computed by
applying the federal statutory rate of 34% to net income before income taxes
primarily due to the effect of state income taxes.
The tax effects of temporary differences and carryforwards which gave rise
to a significant portion of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31,
1999 were as follows:
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards $117,526
Other 7,802
--------

Net deferred tax liabilities $278,637
========
21
<PAGE>
At December 31, 1999, the Company has federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards approximating $313,000. Net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $36,000, $172,000, and $105,000 will expire in the years 2012,
2013, and 2019, respectively.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
The Company is subject to litigation occurring in the ordinary course of
business. On the basis of information furnished by legal counsel and others, it
is the opinion of management that no litigation has arisen that will have a
material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of
the Company.
Contractual Commitments
Contractual obligations for purchases of equipment amounted to
approximately $138,000 at December 31, 1999.
Contingent Payable
As of December 31, 1999, included in accounts payable is approximately
$423,000 which is due to one supplier. Included in that amount is approximately
$322,000 which represents invoices prior to December 31, 1998. If $200,000 of
this old accounts payable amount with this supplier is paid by June 30, 2000,
the supplier has agreed to forgive the remaining $90,000 old accounts payable.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Pending Merger
On May 8, 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Reorganization") with Surgical Laser Technologies ("SLT"),

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation:
The Unaudited Interim Financial Statements of Surgical Innovations & Services,
Inc. ("SIS") for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998 have been
prepared by SIS without audit by SIS's independent auditors. In the opinion of
SIS's management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows of SIS as of March 31, 1999 and
March 31, 1998 and for the periods then ended have been made. Those adjustments
consist only of normal and recurring adjustments.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in SIS's annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in this Form 8-K filing.
The results of operations for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and March 31,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.

(c) Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Data
The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations of Surgical Laser
Technologies, Inc. ("SLT") for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2000 and the
three-month period ended April 2, 2000 (the "Pro Forma Statements of
Operations"), and the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet of the Company
as of April 2, 2000 (the "Pro Forma Balance Sheet" and together with the Pro
Forma Statements of Operations, the "Pro Forma Financial Statements"), have been
prepared to illustrate the estimated historical effect of the SIS acquisition.
The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not reflect any anticipated cost savings
from the SIS acquisition, or any synergies that are anticipated to result from
the SIS acquisition, and there can be no assurance that any such cost savings or
synergies will occur. The Pro Forma Statements of Operations give pro forma
effect to the SIS acquisition as if it had occurred on January 4, 1999. The Pro
Forma Balance Sheet gives pro forma effect to the SIS acquisition as if it had
occurred on April 2, 2000. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not purport to
be indicative of the results of operations or financial position of SLT that
would have actually been obtained had such transactions been completed as of the
assumed dates and for the periods presented, or which may be obtained in the
future. The pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and
are based upon available information and certain assumptions that SLT believes
are reasonable. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction
with SLT's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended January 2, 2000
filed with the Form 10-K.
The SIS acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. The purchase price has been preliminarily determined, and may be
subject to further adjustment as further information becomes available and
further analysis is made. A preliminary allocation of the purchase price has
been made to major categories of assets and liabilities in the accompanying Pro
Forma Financial Statements based on available information. The actual allocation
of purchase price and the resulting effect on income from operations may differ
significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein. Moreover, the
categories of assets may be subject to further refinement, especially as to
intangible assets other than goodwill, as further information becomes available
and further analysis is conducted. These pro forma adjustments represent SLT's
preliminary determination of purchase accounting adjustments and are based upon
available information and certain assumptions that SLT believes to be
reasonable. Consequently, the amounts reflected in the Pro Forma Financial
Statements are subject to change, and the amounts, when finally determined, may
differ substantially.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Preliminary allocation of purchase price to identifiable net assets and
goodwill:
SLT has accounted for the acquisition of SIS under purchase accounting. As a
result, the purchase price has been allocated to the fair market value of the
net assets acquired, with the excess allocated to goodwill. Listed below is the
schedule of the preliminary allocation of goodwill. This schedule has been
calculated based on information available to SLT. The actual allocation of the
purchase price and the resulting effects on income may differ significantly from
that presented in the Pro Forma Financial Statements and the notes thereto.

2. Goodwill Amortization:
SLT will amortize the goodwill from the SIS acquisition over a 20-year
straight-line basis. The following presents the effects of the amortization of
goodwill on the Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations (in thousands):
Year Ended Period Ended

Amortization of Goodwill $25 $6
3. Treatment of Tax Liabilities:
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), the deferred tax liability of SIS
will be absorbed by the net operating loss carryforwards and temporary
differences of SLT and as a result, are eliminated as a pro forma adjustment.
Also in accordance with SFAS 109, the income tax expense of SIS for the year
ended January 2, 2000 is eliminated as a pro forma adjustment due to the
elimination of income tax expense in consolidation with the net operating losses
of SLT.

4. Adjustments to Stockholders'Equity:
The adjustments to common stock, paid in capital, and retained earnings as a
result of the SIS acquisition are as follows (in thousands):

(c) Retained Earnings:

</TABLE>
5. Refinancing of Debt:
As of April 2, 2000, SIS had outstanding debt obligations to AmSouth Bank in the
amount of $2.1 million. This debt was secured by personal guarantees of the
stockholders of SIS. In accordance with the terms of the SIS acquisition, SLT
was obliged to secure funding of this debt, and thus cause AmSouth Bank to
remove the personal guarantees. As a result, concurrent with the SIS
acquisition, SLT obtained a $3 million credit facility from AmSouth Bank to
replace the term debt of SIS. This $3 million credit facility has a commitment
term of 3 years and is secured by SLT's business assets, including
collateralization with the bank of $2 million of SLT's cash and short-term
investments. The credit facility permits the deferment of principal payments
until the end of the commitment term.
The pro forma adjustment on the Pro Forma Balance Sheet represents the transfer
of this term debt to the credit facility. The interest rate on the credit
facility, floating LIBOR +2.25%, is similar to the interest rate on the term
debt of SIS. As a result, there is no pro forma adjustment recorded for changes
in interest expense on the Pro Forma Financial Statements.
6. Adjustment to Interest Income:
The cash payment included in the acquisition cost of SIS of $300,000 resulted in
a reduction in interest income of $17,000 and $4,000 in the Pro Forma Statement
of Operations for the year ended January 2, 2000 and quarter ended April 2,
2000, respectively.
7. Shares used in calculation of loss per share:
The shares used in the calculation of loss per share includes 350,000 shares of
Common Stock issued to the stockholders of SIS in accordance with the terms of
the acquisition.
