PART I
ITEM 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMPANY
Instant Video Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a
Delaware corporation on April 27, 1990, under the name "Catalina Capital
Corporation," for the purpose of obtaining funding and creating a vehicle by
which it could take advantage of business opportunities. In April, 1991, the
Company completed a public offering of units consisting of Common Stock and
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock. The net proceeds of that offering to the
Company amounted to approximately $133,500.
On August 17, 1992, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Explore Technology, Inc. ("Explore") in exchange for the issuance of shares of
the Company's Common and Preferred Stock. Since then, the Company has been
engaged in the business of developing, patenting and commercializing products
and applications for the faster-than-real-time transmission of multimedia
content material over local and wide area networks.
The Company is currently engaged in the on-going commercialization of its
technologies by licensing them to major companies in the fields of
post-production, communications, and broadcasting.
BUSINESS OF COMPANY
Overview
The Company's primary objective is to become a worldwide licensor of
Burstware(TM) (software), the Company's interactive network transmission
technology, for use within commercial, multimedia and interactive network
environments. The Company also intends to expand the number of patents contained
within its patent portfolio, and develop additional Burstware(TM) products and
applications.
In order to reach this objective, the Company intends to continue to use
the following strategies:
- Expand the Company's efficient and effective organization of experienced
professionals with expertise in the areas of technology development,
intellectual property development and licensing, marketing, finance, and
product management.
- Continue designing, engineering, marketing and licensing Burstware(TM)
technology to the post-production, entertainment, distance learning, and
telecommunications industries.
- Establish strategic relationships worldwide.
- Expand the Company's patent portfolio.
Burst Technology
Although burst technology incorporates principles that can be embodied in
both hardware and software products, the Company's principle product is a suite
of software products that has been developed to enable the faster-than-real-time
transmission of multimedia content material. The Company refers to this line of
software as Burstware(TM). Burstware(TM) incorporates many of the intellectual
properties contained in the
2
<PAGE> 3
Company's patent portfolio pertaining to the faster-than-real-time transmission
of audio and video data, and is a level five session layer between the file
server application and the TCP/IP stack. Burstware(TM) optimizes network
bandwidth and manages the scheduling of content material from the server.
Therefore, Burstware(TM) improves the performance of interactive networks.
The Company's time-compression methodology combines a number of different
technologies to allow a computer server to transmit entire multimedia programs
in a matter of seconds or minutes (depending upon bandwidth) to a receiving
client. In this way, communication lines are immediately clear for the next
burst transmission or for other uses. This time-compression saves both time and
money and provides network efficiency and effectiveness not available in any
real-time delivery system. Burstware(TM) is network, protocol, and compression
algorithm independent. Burstware(TM) has potential applications in business,
communications, entertainment, education, and consumer markets.
Athena Burstware(TM) was developed during 1994 and 1995, is a Burstware(TM)
product that utilizes a 486/66, or faster PC, with 16MB of RAM, a high-speed
520MB (or larger) hard drive, and a REALmagic video playback card. The Athena
Burstware(TM)system consists of a UNIX-based server and multiple PC clients.
Athena operates within all high-speed network environments, contains drivers for
TCP/IP and ATM protocols and can accommodate various compression algorithms. The
Athena server contains digitized compressed multimedia content material which
can be selected by each client PC. During playback, the CPU activity, state of
the client buffers, and burst-rate are controlled by the server in order to
maximize the system's performance. The Athena Burstware(TM) system has
demonstrated the following: (1) the feasibility of the Company's
faster-than-real-time transmission capability over LANs (local area network) and
WANs (wide area network) currently available from public carriers; and, (2)
illustrates the benefits of faster-than-real-time communications for
distribution of multimedia content material.
Burstware Viewer(TM) is a Burstware(TM) application that enables users of
high-speed networks to preview video in faster-thanreal-time. The Burstware
Viewer(TM) incorporates Burstware(TM) software that connects servers utilizing
Solaris, UNIX, or OS/2 operating systems to client PCs with Windows 3.1 or
Windows 95 operating systems, via a Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Explorer
browsers. The Burstware Viewer(TM), currently being marketed to the
post-production and telecommunications industries, has been publicly
demonstrated and licensed by Vyvx, Inc.
Methods of Distribution
The Company's primary means of distribution is through the licensing of its
Burstware(TM) products and applications to third parties. Distribution has been
accomplished through direct licensing to third parties and through strategic
alliances.
THE MILL
In August 1995, the Company granted a site license for the use of Athena
Burstware(TM) to The Mill (Facility) Limited ("The Mill"), an internationally
recognized post-production facility in London, England. This license has
resulted in the company receiving license fee revenue in the amount of
approximately $586,600 for 1995. The license also provides the Company with an
opportunity to receive license fee revenue in the amount of approximately
$293,000 (assuming a conversion rate of $1.55 on L189,000) per year for 1996 and
1997. The terms of the Agreement include that: (1) The Mill shall receive a
one-year non-exclusive license to utilize software that results from the
Company's Athena Project for use in conjunction with its post-production
activities; and (2) The Mill shall retain the ability to renew this license for
two one-year periods. During 1996, $126,970 in license fees were paid to the
Company.
In March 1997, the Mill's license was transferred to Sohonet, a full
service ATM-switched network utilized by the post-production community in
London, England, of which The Mill is a member.

<PAGE> 4
VYVX, INC.
In January 1996, the Company granted a license to Vyvx, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Williams Companies, Inc. and a nationwide network
provider for video distribution. The license grants Vyvx the right to use
Burstware(TM), in the form of the Burstware Viewer(TM) for use on the Vyvx
network.
Under the License Agreement, payments were made to the Company pursuant to
a schedule based on certain deliverables. In 1996, the Company realized revenue
in the amount of $250,000 as a result of this license.
As a result of the successful completion of the Burstware Viewer(TM), on
July 3, 1996, Vyvx entered into a Development and License Agreement with the
Company that provides for at least five additional technology development
projects to be developed by the Company for Vyvx during the twelve month period
following execution of the Agreement. The Agreement provides that the Company
will grant to Vyvx an exclusive license for the first year of use of each
completed product and a non-exclusive license to use each product thereafter.
The Agreement provides for license fees in the minimum amount of $250,000 for
each licensed product, payable pursuant to a deliverables schedule. At December
31, 1996, the Company had initiated four of these projects and had received
related revenues of $480,000.
Also on July 3, 1996, the Company entered into a strategic Marketing
Alliance Agreement with Vyvx, Inc. By establishing this alliance, both Vyvx and
the Company hope to capitalize on their combined technological expertise by
marketing and distributing Burstware(TM) and connectivity to the Vyvx Network,
within the target market of post-production facilities located within the United
States, Great Britain, and selected cities in Canada. Pursuant to this Marketing
Alliance Agreement, the Company was paid $250,000 for facilitation and
administration of the parties' joint marketing efforts. Pursuant to an amendment
to this Marketing Alliance Agreement, an additional payment of $250,000 per
quarter shall be paid to the Company in order to extend the joint marketing
activities. Each $250,000 payment is subject to a $25,000 withhold that will be
paid in full subject to the successful completion of certain milestones. As of
December 31, 1996, the Company received a total of $500,000 related to the
Marketing Alliance Agreement.
INTERTAINER, INC.
In August 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Intertainer,
Inc., the developer of a unique user interface and entertainment program service
enabled by Burstware(TM) for the domestic and international high-bandwidth
computer and television market. The Agreement provides the Company with the
unlimited use of the Intertainer user interface and all content material
attached for non-commercial demonstration applications, in exchange for the
Company paying $35,000 of the costs associated with the design and development
of the interface. The Company is currently utilizing the Intertainer user
interface in conjunction with demonstrations of Burstware(TM) to third parties.
The Company has designed and developed a Burstware application called Burstware
Xtra(TM). Burstware Xtra(TM) is used in conjunction with the Intertainer user
interface. Burstware Xtra(TM) allows full-motion MPEG video to be played through
Macromedia Director software. The Intertainer user interface has been built in
Director.
BURST COMMUNICATIONS PTY LTD.
Effective April 1994, the Company entered into a Master License Agreement
with Burst Communications Pty Ltd. ("BCPL"), an Australian corporation, pursuant
to which the Company has granted it an exclusive license to use the Company's
patents, and to sublicense their use to third parties in Australia, New Zealand,
China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and certain other Pacific Rim countries. As
consideration for this license, BCPL was required to pay a license fee of
$250,000, payable in installments through June 30, 1995. However, in order to
assist BCPL in directing its financial resources toward its marketing activities
relating to the Company's intellectual properties, the Company agreed to waive
$50,000 of the license fee, reducing the total fee to $200,000 which has now
been paid. In addition, BCPL is required to pay royalties ranging from 5% to 10%
of gross income on products sold by BCPL, and 50% of the gross income received
by BCPL on sublicenses of the patent rights. The license fee paid by BCPL will
be offset against these royalty requirements.
4
<PAGE> 5
The term of the Master License Agreement is for a period of five years.
However, if BCPL fails to pay the Company at least $550,000 in royalty revenue
within the first three years of the agreement, the license will be non-exclusive
for the last two years.
If the Company receives $550,000 in royalties within the first three years
of the agreement and at least $1,500,000 in royalty revenue during the period
from April 15, 1997 to April 15, 1999, BCPL will have the right to extend the
agreement an additional five years. If BCPL extends the agreement for an
additional five years, it will be required to deliver at least $1,000,000 in
royalty revenue each year of such extension or the license will become
non-exclusive for the remainder of the extension.
OPTION TO OBTAIN LICENSE
In June 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with an entity engaged
in the installation and operation of systems used for transmitting program
materials pursuant to which that entity received an option to obtain a
non-exclusive royalty bearing license under the Company's patents. The Company
received $25,000 for granting a one-year option. The option may be extended by
the holder up to three additional one-year periods by making additional payments
that increase each year. In June 1995, the Company received $30,000 to extend
the option for one year, and in June 1996, the Company received $35,000 to
extend the option for another year. The agreement also provides that the Company
will not sue the option holder with respect to systems currently held by the
option holder for a period of one year, a period which may be extended by making
the payments referred to above.
Engineering and Product Development/Status of New Products
In January 1994, the Company revised its original strategic plan the result
of which has been the refocusing of the Company's resources on the design,
development and deployment of Burstware(TM) products and applications.
Research and development costs for Athena amounted to $64,539 during 1994
and $122,674 in 1995. These costs are attributed to the development of the
Athena Burstware(TM) demonstration system, as well as to the additional research
and preparation of future Burstware(TM) applications and products. During 1996,
the Company's research and development costs for Burstware(TM) products and
applications totaled $48,588. This amount resulted from increased development
and licensing activities during 1996.
The Company recently developed Burstware Xtra(TM). This Burstware(TM)
application enables interactive multimedia product developers utilizing
Macromedia Director software to incorporate full-motion MPEG compressed video
content material into their products. Burstware Xtra(TM) is a plug-in that
operates in conjunction with Director. Macromedia Director is the software of
choice for more than 80% of the interactive multimedia products produced world
wide.
The Company is developing Burstware CD(TM), a Burstware(TM) application
that improves the quality of video content material contained on CD-ROMs when
played on a 2x or 4x CD drive installed in a PC with a 486/66 to Pentium CPU's.
Competition
The Company is primarily engaged in the development and commercial
licensing of the intellectual properties currently contained within the
Company's patent portfolio, its Burstware(TM) technology, and future
intellectual properties and software that may be developed by the Company and/or
third parties that are contained within the Company's patent portfolio. The
Company believes that intellectual properties currently contained within the
Company's patent portfolio are unique.
The Company is not aware of anyone or any other company that offers a
product or application that contains the functionality of Burstware(TM).
However, there are many companies within the technology industry that have
substantially greater financial, technical, personnel and other resources than
the Company and have established reputations for success in the development,
licensing, sale and service of their products and technology. Certain of these
competitors dominate their industries and have the necessary financial resources
5
<PAGE> 6
to enable them to withstand substantial price competition or downturns in the
market for audio and video transmission.
There are a growing number of companies focusing on video distribution over
LANs and WANs through the use of streaming technology. The Company believes that
streaming does not offer the versatility, bandwidth optimization, and server
management that Burstware(TM) provides.
The markets for the technology and products being developed by the Company
are characterized by rapid changes and evolving industry standards. As a result,
certain companies may be developing technologies or products of which the
Company is unaware which may be functionally similar, or superior, to some or
all of those being developed by the Company. In addition, the ability of the
Company to compete will depend on its ability to complete development and
introduce to the marketplace in a timely and cost-competitive manner its
proposed products and technology, to continually enhance and improve such
products and technology, to adapt its proposed products, to be compatible with
products and network configurations designed by others, and to successfully
develop and market new products and technology. There is no assurance that the
Company will be able to compete successfully, that its competitors or future
competitors will not develop technologies or products that render the Company's
products and technology obsolete or less marketable, or that the Company will be
able to successfully enhance its proposed products or technology or adapt them
satisfactorily.
Major Customer
The January 1996 license with Vyvx, Inc. has now been expanded to five
license agreements, resulting in Vyvx being the Company's major customer.
Vyvx has assisted the Company with the migration of its technology
development and product licensing to third parties. In addition, the Company is
proactively marketing its technology products and applications worldwide to
network providers other than Vyvx. These activities have resulted in technology
trials with various communications companies including NYNEX Cablecomms Ltd.,
and the British Broadcasting Company.
Patents and Trademarks
The Company holds five U.S. patents. The first three patents describe a
broad class of machine systems and methods that allow a user to view, edit, and
store video/audio information, and to send and receive the data associated with
that video/audio information over high-speed data networks in less time than is
normally required to actually view or listen to the programming. The fourth and
fifth describe particular distribution methods designed to deliver video/audio
information via remote systems. The Company has additional patents pending in
the United States. These patents cover the technologies associated with its
burst technology, describing hardware, software, and network architecture.
The Company's patents are as follows: "Audio/video transceiver apparatus
including compression means" (Patent No. 4,963,995, dated October 16, 1990);
"Audio/video transceiver apparatus including compression means, random access
storage means, and microwave transceiver means" (Patent No. 5,057,932, dated
October 15, 1991); "Method for handling audio/video source information" (Patent
No. 5,164,839, dated November 17, 1992); "Audio/video file server including
decompression/playback means" (Patent No. 5,262,875, dated November 16, 1993);
and "Broadcast video burst transmission cyclic distribution apparatus and
method" (Patent No. 08/011,972, dated August 8, 1995.) The Company has also a
sixth U.S. patent pending: "Dynamically-configured multimedia network system and
method using segmented burst video transmissions" (Filing No. 08/281,368, dated
May 24, 1994.)
The Company has been granted an Australian patent (627841), which
duplicates the subject matter of the first two U.S. patents (4,963,995 and
5,057,932), and has filed for a number of additional international patents in
countries worldwide.
There can be no assurance that the patents presently held by the Company
are enforceable, particularly in view of the high cost of patent litigation, nor
can there be any assurance that the Company will derive any competitive
advantages from them. To the extent that patents are not issued for any other
products developed
6
<PAGE> 7
by the Company, the Company would be subject to more competition. The issuance
of patents may be insufficient to prevent competitors from essentially
duplicating the product by designing around the patent aspects. In addition,
there can be no assurance that the Company's products will not infringe on
patents owned by others, license to which may not be available to the Company,
nor that competitors will not develop functionally similar products outside the
protection of any patents the Company has or may obtain.
The Company has registered the trademark "INSTANT VIDEO," and has applied
for trademark registration for "BURSTWARE" and "BURSTAID."
Employees
As of March 31, 1997, the Company has seven full-time employees and retains
the services of outside consultants on an as-required basis.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
The Company presently occupies 2,328 square feet of office space at 500
Sansome Street, Suite 503, San Francisco, California pursuant to a lease that is
presently on a month to month basis. The lease provides for rent of $3,104 per
month and a three-month security deposit. The Company is evaluating its space
requirements and suitable additional or substitute space is currently being
sought in order to accommodate expansion.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
There are no pending legal proceedings involving the Company.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
During the first half of 1996, the Company amended its Articles of
Incorporation and authorized the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of Series F
Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase Common Stock of the
Company. As a result, the Company obtained financing in the net amount of
$1,450,000 through the sale of 1,475,000 shares of Series F Convertible
Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase 1,475,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Company. The price of each Unit is $1.00; the Preferred Stock may be converted
1:1 for shares of the Company's Common Stock; and the exercise price of the
Common Stock Purchase Warrants is $1.00 per share. The document evidencing this
financing include provisions that, among other matters, give the investors the
right to appoint two directors to the Board of Directors, registration rights,
and the right of first refusal on financing offerings by the Company during the
twelve (12) month period following the closing of the financing. This matter was
submitted to a vote of the Company's shareholders (via written consents executed
by the majority shareholders).
In January 1997, the Delaware Chancery Court granted a petition submitted
by the Company with regard to the correction of an administrative error during
1992, in which the former legal counsel of the Company omitted to file an
amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation with the State of Delaware
formally effecting the Company's 14:1 reverse stock split, which had been
approved by the Company's majority shareholders in 1992. Upon mandate, the
amendment effecting the 14:1 reverse stock split was resubmitted for vote of the
Company's majority shareholders, and was again ratified, and was filed with the
Delaware Chancery Court on March 7, 1997.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Over the course of the past two years, the Company has migrated from
licensing the intellectual properties contained in its patent portfolio to
developing, marketing, and licensing software products and applications that
cover the faster-than-real-time transmission of audio and video programming.
This type of transmission is referred to as "burst." The Company's software is
called Burstware(TM), and incorporates the teachings of the Company's patent
portfolio. Over the next twelve months and beyond, the Company intends to
continue pursuing (a) an aggressive licensing agenda focused on its patents and
software, and (b) a Burstware(TM) development program, with the long-term goal
of establishing the Company's intellectual properties and Burstware(TM) as a
primary means of faster-than-real-time transmission of multimedia content
material.
In order to accomplish these goals, the Company has organized a core group
of employees and consultants with extensive experience in the fields of
licensing, marketing, administration, technology, patents, and law. As the
Company's growth requires, this team shall be augmented. For example, over the
past two years the Company has relied extensively on the assistance of an
outside development firm, NPS Associates, for the development of its
Burstware(TM) products and applications. Over the next twelve months, the
Company intends to add in-house technology and licensing staff, as necessary.
8
<PAGE> 9
The Company has increased its revenue in the past three years from $55,000
for the year ended December 31, 1994, to $1,458,000 for the year ended December
31, 1996, as a result of the shift from attempting to license patent rights to
licensing marketable products and applications. The majority of this revenue has
come from two major customers, Vyvx, Inc. and The Mill. The Company is
proactively marketing its technology products and applications to network
providers other than Vyvx, worldwide. These activities have resulted in
technology trials with certain communications companies, such as NYNEX
Cablecomms Ltd., and the British Broadcasting Company.
In the present and near future, the Company will follow a plan to
specifically target the post-production, and telecommunications industries for
licensing agreements, alliances and strategic partnerships. In so doing, the
Company hopes to increase revenue, form relationships that will increase its
visibility in these relevant fields, and provide opportunities for new
technological development to meet the growing needs of these industries.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
In addition to licensing its patents and software, the Company has and
shall continue to work both independently and with its licensees and strategic
partners to accelerate the development and deployment of the specific,
protected, and proprietary hardware and software products necessary to exploit
the market for faster-than-real-time audio and video transmission.
During 1995, the Company developed its first software application utilizing
the technologies contained in its patent portfolio. Athena Burstware(TM) was
created as a demonstration to show faster-than-real-time delivery and
30-frame-persecond (industry standard) playback of high quality audio and video
over a closed network.
Since then the Company has developed the Burstware Viewer(TM), a
Burstware(TM) application for use within the commercial marketplace. The
Burstware Viewer(TM) has been licensed to Vyvx, Inc.
The Company is in the process of establishing strategic alliances for the
purpose of joint technology development and licensing.
The Company recognizes the challenges associated with marketing Internet
based products and applications. Therefore, the Company intends to continue to
focus its energies and resources on the development of products and applications
for intranet, extranet, and enterprise network applications.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Since January 1994, the Company has raised nearly $2.8 million in capital
through the issuance of various financial instruments. Revenue for the year of
1994 totaled $55,792. Revenue for 1995 totaled $665,781, and revenue for 1996
totaled $1,457,597.
On December 31, 1994, the Company had a working capital deficit of
approximately $925,000. During 1995, the Company continued to restructure its
short-term debt and raise approximately $325,000 through the private sale of
Common and Preferred Stock. During 1996, the Company received an additional
$1,450,000 net proceeds from the sale of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock
("Series F Stock") and a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, and
further restructured its short-term debt through the conversion of a $150,000
promissory note and $20,000 of accrued interest into Common Stock. In addition,
Draysec Finance Ltd. has provided an ongoing Credit Facility in the amount of
$500,000. As a result of the Company's financing and the increase in revenues,
it has met its operating expenses goal for 1996.
Due to financing activities through the sale of Preferred Stock, as well as
additional product development and licensing in the marketplace, the Company
believes that it will have sufficient cash available for operations planned for
1997. The Company anticipates that it will be able to raise additional capital
as needed through the issuance of additional stock and/or warrants. There is no
guarantee that the proposed additional capital financing will be forthcoming
this year. Financing may not be available or may have a dilutive effect on
current stockholders' equity.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company received license fees
in the amount of $1,391,970 and realized revenue in the amount of $1,457,597. Of
the $1,457,597 in revenue realized, $50,268 represented deferred license revenue
from prior years. Deferred revenue was earned on certain licensed products
during fiscal year 1996 for which payment was received during fiscal years 1994
and 1995.
Costs and expenses during the year ended December 31, 1996, totaled
$1,803,948 as compared to $1,036,435 during the year ended December 31, 1995.
The increase was primarily due to Burstware(TM) project costs, the hiring of
additional human resources, the increase in travel related expenses, and
compensation expense resulting from stock options issued to non employees.
Research and development expenses for 1995 totaled $122,674. For 1996,
research and development expenses totaled $48,588. Research and development
costs are reflected separately from other costs and expenses and were directly
expensed as incurred. These costs decreased in 1996 because the Company has
succeeded in developing products and applications for which it has license
agreements. Research and development costs pertain to the development of Athena
Burstware(TM), which has been licensed to The Mill, and the development of the
Burstware Viewer(TM) and Burstware Xtra(TM). The Burstware Viewer(TM) has been
licensed to Vyvx, Inc. The Burstware(TM) products are regularly upgraded to
insure compatibility with enhanced networks. The Company continues to combine
its research and development activities with licensed product development
wherever possible.
The Company incurred a net loss per common share of $.09 per share during
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, as compared to a net loss of $.11 per
share during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. During the last quarter of
1996, the Company recognized net income of $.06 per share prior to an adjustment
for non-cash stock option compensation to an affiliate and non-employees.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of
$185,994 as compared to a working capital deficit of $1,375,405 at December 31,
1995. The decreased deficit was primarily due to the decrease in notes payable,
deferred revenue, and accrued payroll during 1996.
Cash used in operating activities totaled $818,782 during the year ended
December 31, 1996, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $322,792
during the year ended December 31, 1995. The increase was primarily a result of
excess billings on uncompleted contracts, liquidation of accounts payable, and
deferred revenue. The increase was partially offset by $150,000 of compensation
expense resulting from options issued to non-employees.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the year ended December
31, 1996, were $1,070,482 as compared to $358,733 during the prior year. The
increase was due to the proceeds from the sale of Preferred Stock. This increase
is partially offset by repayment of debt during 1996.
The Company presently has no commitments for material capital expenditures.
During the period subsequent to year-end, the Company realized cash from
operating activities in excess of budgeted amount, and cash from investor
exercise of warrants that provided positive cash flow. Management believes that
there will be sufficient cash available from operating, financing and investing
activities to meet Company obligations for at least the twelve-month period
ended March 31, 1998.

Financial Statement schedules are not required and have therefore been omitted.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
As of March 27, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company has elected to
dismiss Evers & Company Ltd. as its certifying accountant and replace Evers &
Company with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, pending completion of the necessary client
approval process. The client approval was complete as of April 11, 1997.
This change has been approved by the Company's board of directors, and is a
result of the Company's desire to utilize the services of a national accounting
firm. There is no time in the past two years that the former accountant's report
on the financial statements contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, or was modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
During the two most recent fiscal years and through March 27, 1997,
preceding the dismissal of Evers and Company, there were no disagreements with
the former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountants,
would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the
disagreements in connection with their reports.
During the two most recent fiscal years, and any subsequent interim period
prior to engaging KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, neither the Company nor someone on its
behalf consulted with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP regarding (i) the application of
accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed;
or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial
statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or
a reportable event.

Gary R. Familian, who is currently Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and
President of the Company, served in the capacity of President and Chief
Executive Officer since September 1995, and served in the capacity of President
and Chief Operating Officer of the Company since November 1994. During the
period of August 1993 to November 1994, Mr. Familian worked for the Company in
the capacity of a consultant during which time he accrued consulting fees in the
total amount of $50,750, which was subsequently waived. In March 1994, the
Company also issued an option to Mr. Familian to purchase 50,000 shares of
Common Stock at $2.55 per share through March 20, 2004. Mr. Familian
subsequently assigned these options to other persons.
At the time Mr. Familian executed his Employment Agreement with the
Company, effective September 1, 1995, he agreed to waive payment of all accrued
compensation that was accrued under his previous Consulting Agreement with the
Company. At that time, Mr. Familian received an option to purchase 150,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock at the exercise price of $1.00 per share.
Mr. Familian has since returned said option which has been canceled by the
Company. Mr. Familian's Employment Agreement with the Company also provides for
future incentive options to be granted subject to certain increases in the price
of the Company's Common Stock. The performance criteria are measured during the
last calendar month of the Company's fiscal year and is predicated upon the
price of the Company's stock during the last fiscal month ending December 31,
1995. Pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Mr. Familian did not qualify for
issuance of any options for fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, or for fiscal
year ended December 31, 1996.
During 1994, Richard Lang served as Chairman of the Board and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and received compensation in the amount of
$95,000. From September 15, 1995 to January 31, 1997, Mr. Lang has served as
Chairman of the Board, and received compensation in the amount of $4,000 per
month. During the year of 1995, Mr. Lang received a total of $93,091, of which
$17,091 related to payment of prior year accruals. During 1996, Mr. Lang
received total compensation in the amount of $51,000 in addition to the payment
of accrued compensation in the amount of $183,288. On December 31, 1994, the
balance due to him was approximately $85,000, which carried through December 31,
1995. In February 1996, $79,644 had been paid to reduce this balance due. As of
December 31, 1996 the remaining balance has been paid to Mr. Lang.
Mr. Lang has agreed in writing that any and all inventions, improvements,
discoveries, etc., relating to the Company's Instant Video(TM) technology that
were originally in his name or worked on during his tenure with the Company are
now the sole property of the Company pursuant to assignment. Mr. Lang has also
agreed not
14
<PAGE> 15
to disclose confidential matters to persons other than authorized Company
personnel. Furthermore, he has agreed that during the term of his employment
with the Company, and for a period of three years after the termination of his
employment, he will not engage in a business that competes with the Company,
without the Company's consent.
Although Directors do not receive compensation for their services as
Directors as such, Directors may be reimbursed for expenses incurred in
attending Board meetings.
STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
In November 1992, the Board of Directors adopted the 1992 Stock Incentive
Plan (the "Plan") which was subsequently amended in December 1992, in April,
August and September 1993, and was approved by the Company's shareholders in
October 1993. The Plan provides that options may be granted to any employee
(including officers), director or consultant of the Company or any parent or
subsidiary of the Company and that restricted stock may be awarded or sold.
Incentive stock options may only be granted to employees. The Company has
reserved 3,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock for issuance under the
Plan. As of December 31, 1996, the Company has issued stock options at exercise
prices ranging from $1.00 per share to $3.75 per share. The following table
contains information concerning the stock option grants made to each of the
named officers.

</TABLE>

(1) Mr. Lang received options pursuant to his Employment Agreement with the
Company, effective September 1, 1995, and for being a member of the Board of
Directors.
(2) Mr. Familian received options to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company's
common stock upon the execution of his Employment Agreement with the
Company, effective September 1, 1995. During 1996 said options were returned
by Mr. Familian and canceled by the Company.
(3) Ms. Stacy received certain options pursuant to her Consulting Agreement with
the Company dated July 11, 1995. Additional options were issued to Ms. Stacy
pursuant to her Employment Agreement with the Company. Certain of the
options granted to Ms. Stacy have been assigned to third parties. This
number reflects the options currently held by Ms. Stacy.
In 1996, the Company granted both incentive and non-statutory stock options
to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock to employees and key
consultants to the Company.
The Company believes that grants of stock options and awards of restricted
stock motivate high levels of performance, provide an effective means of
recognizing employee contributions to the Company's success, and assist the
Company in recruiting and retaining highly qualified personnel who are in great
demand. The Board believes that the ability to grant options and make awards of
restricted stock under the Plan, including, in certain cases, non-qualified
stock options at below fair market value, will be important to the future
success of the Company. These stock options will be expensed to the statement of
operations during the period granted and vested.
Options granted under the Plan may be either "incentive stock options," as
defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, or non-qualified stock
options. The Plan has been and will be administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.
The Board may amend the Plan at any time or from time to time or may
terminate the Plan without approval of the stockholders; provided, however, that
stockholder approval is required for any amendment to the Plan for which
stockholder approval would be required under the federal securities laws or the
Code. No action by the Board or stockholders may alter or impair any options
previously granted under the Plan. In any
15
<PAGE> 16
event, the Plan shall terminate on November 5, 2002. Any options outstanding
under the Plan at the time of its termination shall remain outstanding until
they expire by their terms.

INSTANT VIDEO TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
Instant Video Technologies, Inc. (the Company) licenses burst transmission
software for use within commercial, multimedia and interactive environments. The
burst technology allows for time compression and burst transmission of
video/audio programming which results in time-savings, network efficiency and
superior quality products.
Liquidity
Since inception, the Company has incurred development costs and other
expenses resulting in losses of approximately $6,700,000, and the Company's
current liabilities exceed current assets by approximately $186,000 at December
31, 1996. At December 31, 1995, the working capital deficit was $1,375,000.
Notwithstanding this situation, the Company is now realizing revenue and
was able to significantly reduce its current liabilities during 1996 as a result
of a preferred stock offering. The Company currently has signed contracts which
will result in approximately $1,520,000 in revenue during 1997. Management
believes that it will continue to be able to sign new licenses during 1997, form
strategic alliances with major corporations and obtain additional capital to
continue developing and licensing its technology during the next fiscal year.
The Company also has over $400,000 of availability under a line of credit from
Draysec Finance Ltd. at December 31, 1996, which may be used to fund operations
as needed. Management believes they will have sufficient cash to cover
operations during 1997.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Instant Video
Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Explore Technology, Inc. All
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include money market accounts and other short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which
range from six to ten years.
Patents
Direct costs incurred to obtain patents are being capitalized and amortized
over seven years using the straight-line method. Costs incurred to maintain
patents are expensed as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues under milestone contracts generally are recognized under the
percentage-of-completion method based on a ratio of cost incurred to date to
estimated total costs of the milestone.
License fee revenue is deferred and recorded as revenue over the term of
the license. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollar at
prevailing market rates.
25
<PAGE> 26
INSTANT VIDEO TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Research and Development
Research and development costs, including contract services, are expensed
as incurred. Software development costs are expensed as research and development
until technological feasibility is established.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities; and, their respective tax
bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the year, which was 4,579,829 in 1996 and 4,138,768 in
1995. Convertible debt, preferred stock, warrants, and options are considered
antidilutive and were not considered in the calculation.
Stock Options
Prior to January 1, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option plan
in accordance with the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, and related
interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of
grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the
exercise price. On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which permits entities to recognize
as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on
the date of grant.
Alternatively, SFAS No. 123, allows entities to continue to apply the
provisions of APB No. 25, and provide pro forma net loss and pro forma loss per
share disclosure for employee stock option grants made in 1995 and future years
as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123, had been applied. The
Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB No. 25 and
provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.
Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions
relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

Each share is convertible into one share of common stock through February 17,
1998 and has a liquidation preference of $1 per share.
During 1996 and 1995, the holders of Series D preferred stock converted
936,000 and 4,964,000 shares into 66,857 and 354,571 shares of common stock,
respectively. There are no shares of Series D outstanding at December 31, 1996.
In February 1996, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and
authorized the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of Series F Convertible
Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company. As a
result, the Company obtained financing in the net amount of $1,450,000 of Series
F Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase common stock of the
Company.
The price of each unit was $1.00 and each share of preferred stock may be
converted into one share of the Company's common stock. The exercise price of
the common stock warrants is also $1.00 per share. The offering grants the
investors the right to appoint two directors, certain registration rights, and
the right of first refusal on financing offerings for a limited period of time.
(5) STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
On November 6, 1992, the Board of Directors adopted the 1992 Stock
Incentive Plan. Under the plan, the Board may grant options to officers, key
employees, directors and consultants. Incentive stock options may be granted at
not less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date the option
is granted. The option price of stock not intended to qualify as incentive stock
options may not be less than 85% of the fair market value on the date of grant.
The maximum term of the options cannot exceed ten years. A total of 3,000,000
shares have been reserved for issuance under the plan.
The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted during
1996 and 1995 was $.22 and $.11 on the date of grant using the Black Scholes
Model with the following weighted average assumptions: volatility of 65% for all
years, expected dividend yield 0% for all years, risk free interest rate of
6 1/2% for all years and an expected life of 1.2 and 1.9 years, respectively.
At December 31, 1996, the exercise price and weighted average remaining
contractual life of options was $1.00 and 9 years, respectively.
The Company applies APB No. 25, in accounting for its plan and,
accordingly, $150,000 compensation cost for non employees has been recognized
for its stock options in the financial statements.
The Company also has a performance stock option plan with the Chief
Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO is entitled to receive incentive stock options
to purchase 10% of the increase in the stock price as defined in his employment
agreement. The increase in the stock price is based on the period from July 15,
1995 through July 14, 1998. The performance criteria is measured in December.
The CEO did not qualify for issuance of stock options under the performance plan
for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

(6) LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Company leases its office space and apartment under operating leases
which are currently on a month-to-month basis. The monthly rent for the office
and apartment is $3,104 and $3,000, respectively. Rent expense for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $145,148 and $100,879, respectively.
(7) INCOME TAXES
The Company had no federal income taxes in 1996 and 1995 due to its net
loss and its accumulated losses. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company had
net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of
approximately $5,690,518 and $4,591,977, which, subject to annual limitations,
are available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2011 and net
operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of $2,232,131 and

</TABLE>
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1996 and
1995 was $2,408,343 and $2,293,418, respectively. The net change in the
valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was an
increase of $114,925 and an increase of $204,616, respectively. In assessing the
realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
(8) BUSINESS AND PRODUCT CONCENTRATIONS
The Company's primary source of revenue is from the licensing of burst
technology which generated $1,457,597 and $665,781 in revenue during 1996 and
1995, respectively. The Company's success is largely dependent on this product.
Changes in desirability of the product in the marketplace may significantly
effect management's estimates and the Company's performance.
The Company's principal customers are located in Great Britain and
Oklahoma. These customers accounted for substantially all of the Company's
revenues in 1996 and 1995. The Company recognized $126,970 and $586,600 in
foreign revenues in 1996 and 1995, respectively.
During 1996, the Company used a single consulting firm for the majority of
its research and product development work. This firm earned fees of
approximately $362,000 in 1996. Management does not believe that it will need to
depend on this firm as heavily in the future.
(9) DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires that the Company disclose estimated
fair values for its financial instruments. The following summary presents a
description of the methodologies and assumptions used to determine such amounts.
Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and are based on
relevant market information and information about the financial instrument; they
are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties, matters
30
<PAGE> 31
INSTANT VIDEO TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. These estimates
do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale
at one time the Company's entire holding of a particular instrument. Changes in
assumptions could significantly affect these estimates.
Since the fair value is estimated as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the
amounts that will actually be realized or paid in settlement of the instruments
could be significantly different.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amount is assumed to be the fair value because of the relative
short maturity of the portfolio.
Accounts Receivables
The carrying amount is assumed to be the fair value because of the relative
short repayment terms as compared to similar instruments.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses, and Notes Payable
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
of these instruments. The terms of the Company's note payable approximate the
terms in the marketplace at which they could be replaced. Therefore, the fair
market value approximates the carrying value of these financial instruments.
(10) LEGAL SETTLEMENTS
In October of 1996, the Company entered into a settlement agreement in
connection with the Company's Series F convertible stock financing pursuant to a
consulting agreement. The settlement indicated $42,500 was paid in cash and in
November of 1997, an additional 16 successive monthly payments of $5,000 each.
$10,000 in aggregate is to be paid to the investor/consultant. In addition, two
promissory notes were signed with a principal amount of $6,000 bearing 8%
interest, and due on August 19, 1997 and $10,000 note bearing 8% interest, and
due on February 24, 1998.
