Item 1. Business.

GENERAL
- -------

Spectrum Pharmaceutical  Corporation (herein the "Company") is primarily engaged
in  the  development  of  pharmaceutical  products  incorporating  the  compound
procaine  hydrochloride  intended for use in the treatment of tinnitus,  certain
symptoms of  Alzheimer's  Disease and cocaine  addiction.  The Company is in the
development  stage and has had no revenues to date.  The Company has  received a
U.S. Patent covering its products for the foregoing conditions.

The Company believes that it has developed  pharmaceutical  products, which will
result in  effective  treatment  of certain  diseases.  However,  the safety and
efficacy of such products have not been  established by formal clinical  studies
and the Company must obtain  substantial  working  capital in order to undertake
such studies.

Marketing of the Company's  pharmaceutical products is governed by the U.S. Food
and  Drug   Administration  (the  "FDA")  and  comparable  agencies  in  foreign
countries.  To date no applications  have been filed by the Company with the FDA
or any  other  agency  with  respect  to any  products.  Accordingly,  it is not
anticipated  that the Company will receive  revenues from the commercial sale of
its  products in the U.S. for at least three years after  receipt of  sufficient
capital  to  undertake  studies  of the  safety  and  efficacy  of its  proposed
products.

The Company's general business strategy is to attempt to enter into licensing or
joint  development  agreements with established  pharmaceutical  companies which
will participate in the clinical  evaluation and regulatory  approval  processes
and  will  market  and  distribute  commercial  products  for the  treatment  of
Alzheimer's  Disease and cocaine  addiction.  The Company intends to manufacture
and  market,  either  itself or  through  subcontractors,  its  product  for the
treatment of tinnitus.

The Company was  incorporated  on May 29, 1990 as  Interamerican  Pharmaceutical
Corporation under the laws of the State of Florida. The Company changed its name
to Spectrum  Pharmaceutical  Corporation in April 1991. Its principal  executive
offices  are  located  at 36 Valley  View,  Irvine,  California  92612,  and its
telephone number at that address is (949) 856-1277.


PROCAINE HYDROCHLORIDE
- ----------------------

Procaine  hydrochloride,  the active ingredient of the Company's  products,  has
found wide application as a local  anesthetic under the brand name Novocain.  So
many other uses for the  compound  have been found that in 1953 it was  written,
"Seldom if ever in the history of  pharmacology  and  therapeutics  has a single
chemical  or drug  been  found to  possess  as many  diverse  uses as have  been
discovered for procaine".  Weatherby,  J.H., Uses of Procaine for Purposes Other
than the Production of Local Anesthesia, Virginia Medical Monthly, Vol. 80, page
253 (May 1953).

However, several factors contributed to the current lack of interest in procaine
by the major pharmaceutical  companies,  including (1) the patent protection for
injectable  (liquid) procaine has lapsed; and (2) its presence in the body is of
short  duration due to its being highly water soluble and therefore  metabolizes
quickly in the human body.  The Company  believes it has overcome  both of these
problems. It has acquired a proprietary method by which through complex forming,
the   pharmacological   life  of  procaine  is  extended  many  times  over  the
administration of procaine  hydrochloride in injectable form.  Furthermore,  the
Company  owns U.S.  Patent No.  4,956,391,  issued in  September  1990  entitled
"Protected  Complex of Procaine  for the  Treatment  of  Symptoms  of  Tinnitus,
Alzheimer's Disease and Narcotics Addiction".

                                                                              2

<PAGE>

The following sets forth information  regarding  initial product  development of
the Company:

Tinnitus
- --------
Tinnitus is an auditory condition  characterized by a continuous or intermittent
ringing,  buzzing or roaring  sensation  that the  patient  hears in one or both
ears. It ranges from a small  nuisance for most people to a cacophony for others
that can dominate life and make it hard to sleep,  understand  conversations  or
concentrate  on work.  According to the April 1989  publication of the U.S. Food
and Drug  Administration,  FDA  Consumer,  researchers  estimate that 36 million
Americans  have  tinnitus and the condition is severe enough in 7.2 million that
they have sought medical help, although medical professionals who treat tinnitus
say that these figures may be low with some estimates indicating that as many as
5.3% of the population  suffers from severe  tinnitus.  It is estimated that the
rest of the  industrialized  world  experiences  tinnitus  symptoms  at  similar
levels.  The cause has not been  determined but appears to be related in part to
exposure to noise and age-related changes in the body.

In the 1930s,  it was observed  that  intravenous  injection  of Novocaine  gave
temporary relief from tinnitus symptoms.  However,  due to the rapid dissipation
of procaine  hydrochloride when injected into the body, its use as a therapeutic
agent for the treatment of tinnitus was  impractical  until the development of a
complex  that  allows  an  extension  of the  pharmacological  effectiveness  of
procaine hydrochloride.

The Company believes that its complex of procaine  hydrochloride will prove safe
and  effective  for the  treatment  of the  symptoms  of  tinnitus.  There is no
assurance  at this time as to when  clinical  testing in this area could  begin.
Until  such  clinical  testing,  there can be no  assurance  that the  Company's
product is safe and effective.

Anti-Cocaine Formula
- --------------------
Cocaine, a powerful central nervous system stimulant,  is currently being widely
abused. Chronic use can lead to violent antisocial behavior as well as result in
weight  loss,  deterioration  of the  nervous  system and  digestive  system.  A
preliminary  investigation  indicates that procaine hydrochloride can be used to
suppress the  stimulative  effect of cocaine by binding  with  certain  receptor
cells in the brain and  thereby  block the effect of  cocaine.  The  Company has
discussed the  potential  use of its product in  additional  therapy with a drug
treatment  coalition.  There is no  assurance  at this time as to when  clinical
testing in this area could begin.  Until such clinical testing,  there can be no
assurance that the Company's product is safe and effective.

Alzheimer's Disease
- -------------------
Alzheimer's Disease is an incurable  degenerative  disease of the brain in which
the core symptom is memory loss. Other associated symptoms include impairment in
language,  abstract reasoning and visual spatial abilities.  Personality changes
are  common and  psychiatric  symptoms,  including  depression,  delusions,  and
hallucinations, may also occur. It is estimated that Alzheimer's Disease affects
more than 2 million persons over the age of 65 in the United States.

                                                                              3

<PAGE>

Procaine  hydrochloride  has been reported as being effective against the memory
loss  exhibited  by  Alzheimer's  patients.  Accordingly,  the Company  plans to
investigate  the efficacy of its product in treating the memory loss  associated
with  Alzheimer's   disease.   The  Company  is  attempting  to  interest  major
pharmaceutical  companies  in  sponsoring  investigations  in this  area and has
provided  certain  information to  established  pharmaceutical  companies  under
Non-Disclosure Agreements. The Company is attempting to develop its product into
a form that can be utilized  once a week,  in  injectable  form, by combining it
with a liposome vehicle for the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease symptoms.  This
could be of benefit  because  Alzheimer's  patients  are  difficult to medicate.
However,  there can be no  assurance  that the  Company  will be  successful  in
developing a once-a-week  injectable version of its product. There are presently
no  arrangements  for  clinical  testing  and there is no  assurance  as to when
clinical testing in this area could begin.  Until such clinical  testing,  there
can be no assurance that the Company's product is safe and effective.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------

The Company is pursuing the following  general business strategy with regards to
the foregoing  products.  With regards to the Alzheimer's and cocaine  addiction
products,  the Company  will attempt to enter into  licensing  or joint  venture
arrangements  with  established   pharmaceutical  companies  to  participate  in
clinical  evaluation,  regulatory  approval  and  commercial  distribution.  The
Company  anticipates  that the licensees or joint  venturers  will  undertake to
perform all or a portion of the necessary  regulatory  testing and to obtain the
necessary regulatory approval to permit sale of such products. It is anticipated
that the licensing or joint venture arrangements will generally provide that the
Company will  manufacture,  either  itself or through  subcontractors,  all or a
major portion of the products.  The Company is currently  engaged in discussions
with a number of international  pharmaceutical  companies.  However, to date, no
agreements   have  been  reached  and  there  is  no  assurance  that  any  such
negotiations  or  discussions  will  result  in a  licensing  or  joint  venture
agreement.

The Company  presently  intends to directly  market its tinnitus  product in the
United States since the prescribing  physicians,  generally ear, nose and throat
specialists,  may be easily  identified.  In addition,  tinnitus  sufferers  are
represented by a major advocacy group, the American Tinnitus Association.  While
it is anticipated that manufacturing would be done through  subcontractors,  the
Company has not yet made arrangements for manufacture of its tinnitus product.

COMPETITION
- -----------

Many companies, including large pharmaceutical, chemical and biotechnology firms
with  financial  resources and research and  development  staffs and  facilities
substantially  greater than those of the Company are engaged in researching  and
developing products to be used in the treatment of the disorders for which it is
anticipated   that  the  Company's   products  may  be  used.  The  industry  is
characterized by rapid technological  advances and competitors may develop their
products  more rapidly  and/or such  products may be more  effective  than those
under  development  by the  Company.  In  addition,  competitors  may be able to
complete the regulatory  approval  process  sooner,  and therefore  market their
product earlier, than the Company. Further, other companies' products now in use
or under  development  may  perform  by other  means the same  functions  as the
Company's proposed products. These competitive products may have advantages over
the Company's  products such as greater  acceptance by the medical  community or
fewer side effects.

                                                                              4

PATENTS
- -------

The Company  considers the protection of the  discoveries in connection with its
products  important to its business.  In September  1990 the Company was granted
U.S.  Patent No.  4,954,391  entitled  "Protected  Complex of  Procaine  for the
Treatment of Symptoms of Narcotics Addiction,  Tinnitus and Alzheimer's Disease"
which patent has been assigned to the Company.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
- -----------------------

The marketing of  pharmaceutical  products  requires the approval of the FDA and
comparable agencies in foreign countries. The FDA has established guidelines and
safety  standards that apply to the preclinical  evaluation,  clinical  testing,
manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical  products.  The Process of obtaining
FDA approval for a new  therapeutic  product  (drug) may take several  years and
often  involves the  expenditure of  substantial  resources.  The steps required
before  such a product  can be  produced  and  marketed  for  human use  include
preclinical   studies,  the  filing  of  an  Investigational  New  Drug  ("IND")
application,  human clinical  trials and the approval of a New Drug  Application
("NDA")

Preclinical  studies are conducted in the laboratory and in animal model systems
to gain  preliminary  information  on the drug's  efficacy and to identify major
safety  problems.  The results of these studies are submitted to the FDA as part
of the IND application  before approval can be obtained for the  commencement of
testing in humans.

The human clinical  testing program  involves three phases.  Phase I studies are
conducted on volunteers  or, in certain cases of antitumor  agents,  on patients
with terminal  disease,  to determine the maximum  tolerated  doses and any side
effects of the  product.  Phase II studies are  conducted  on a small  number of
patients having a specific  disease to determine the product's  efficacy and the
most  effective  doses and  schedules  of  administration.  Phase  III  involves
wide-scale  studies  on  patients  with the  same  disease  in order to  provide
comparison with currently available drugs or biologics.

Data from Phase I, II and III trials are  submitted  in an NDA. The NDA involves
considerable  data  collection,  verification  and  analysis,  as  well  as  the
preparation of summaries of the manufacturing and testing processes, preclinical
studies and clinical trials. The FDA must approve the NDA before the drug may be
marketed. To date no applications have been filed by the Company with the FDA or
any other  agency with  respect to any  products.  Accordingly,  there can be no
assurance that the Company's proposed products will be approved for marketing.

The  manufacturing  process and operation of the  subcontractor's  manufacturing
facility  will be subject to rigorous  regulation,  including the need to comply
with Federal Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations.  The Company's business is
also subject to  regulation  under the  Occupational  Safety and Health Act, the
Environmental  Protection  Act, the Nuclear  Energy and  Radiation  Control Act,
Toxic Substance Control Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

Item 3.   Legal Proceedings.
          ------------------

The Company and its President are defendants in a case begun by Linda Johnson in
August 1992 in the 15th Judicial Circuit Court for Pal m Beach County,  Florida,
seeking damages for the alleged improperly  divesting Johnson of her interest in
the Company.  Johnson was an original  partner with Dr. Howard  Wertheim and Dr.
Alfred  Sapse in a  partnership  that was a  predecessor  to the  Company.  That
partnership  was  terminated  in 1990  and this  case  arises  out of a  dispute
concerning what Johnson was entitled to receive as a result of that termination.

Item 6.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and
          -------------------------------------------------------------------
          Results of Operation.
          ---------------------

The  Company is still in the  developmental  stage and has not yet begun sale of
any product.  The Company will require  substantial  working capital in order to
undertake  the  scientific  studies  necessary to apply for FDA approval for its
products. Substantially all activities of the Company are geared towards raising
capital for this purpose and the Company has not yet secured  working capital in
sufficient  amounts to enable it to undertake such studies.  Accordingly,  there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to  successfully  complete the
transition from a development stage company to an operating company.

                                                                              6

The accounting firm of Grant-Schwartz Associates, CPAs, the independent auditors
of the Company for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1993, was dismissed effective
April 19,  1999.  During the fiscal  years ended March 31, 1993 and 1992 and the
interim period  subsequent to March 31, 1993,  there have been no  disagreements
with Grant-Schwartz  Associates,  CPAs on any matter of accounting principles or
practices,  financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or any
reportable  events.  Grant-Schwartz  Associates,  CPAs' report on the  financial
statements  for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1993  contained a going  concern
qualification  and was not  otherwise  qualified or modified as to  uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles.

The Company  engaged the accounting  firm of S.W.  Hatfield,  CPA as independent
auditors  for the  Company,  effective as of April 19, 1999 for the fiscal years
ended March 31, 1994, 1995,  1996,  1997, 1998 and 1999 and subsequent  periods.
The  engagement of S.W.  Hatfield,  CPA was approved by the  Company's  board of
directors.  During the fiscal years ended March 31, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998
and 1999 and the interim period  subsequent to March 31, 1993 and prior to April
19, 1999, there were no consultations with S.W.  Hatfield,  CPA on any matter of
accounting principles to a specific  transaction,  either completed or proposed,
or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the  Company's  financial

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
               --------------------------------------------------



Board of Directors and Stockholders
Spectrum Pharmaceutical Corporation

We have  audited the  accompanying  balance  sheets of  Spectrum  Pharmaceutical
Corporation (a Florida  corporation and a development stage company) as of March
31, 1994 and the related  statements  of  operations,  changes in  stockholders'
equity and cash  flows for the year then  ended and for the period  from May 29,
1990 (date of inception) through March 31, 1994. 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 audit.

The  financial  statements  as of and for the year  ended  March  31,  1993 were
audited by other  auditors  and they  expressed a qualified  opinion  related to
going  concern  issues,  as  discussed  below and in Note A to the  accompanying
financial  statements,  in their report dated June 4, 1993.  The other  auditors
have not performed any auditing procedures since June 4, 1993.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides 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  Spectrum  Pharmaceutical
Corporation (a development stage company) as of March 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
results  of its  operations  and its cash  flows for each of the two years  then
ended and for the period from May 29, 1990 (date of inception) through March 31,
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  assuming that the
Company  will  continue  as a  going  concern.  As  discussed  in  Note A to the
financial statements, the Company has no viable operations or significant assets
and is dependent upon  significant  shareholders to provide  sufficient  working
capital to maintain the integrity of the corporate entity.  These  circumstances
create  substantial  doubt  about the  Company's  ability to continue as a going
concern and are discussed in Note A. The financial statements do not contain any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A - Organization and Description of Business

Spectrum  Pharmaceutical  Corporation (Company) was incorporated on May 29, 1990
as  Interamerican  Pharmaceutical  Corporation  under  the laws of the  State of
Florida. The Company changed its name to Spectrum Pharmaceutical  Corporation in
April 1991. The Company was originally  formed to engage in the  development and
marketing  of  certain  products   utilizing  the  chemical   compound  procaine
hydrochloride  for the treatment of tinnitus,  certain  symptoms of  Alzheimer's
Disease  and  cocaine  addiction.  The Company  received a patent  covering  its
products for the specifically named conditions and diseases.

The Company has generated no operating  revenues from inception and has incurred
cumulative operating losses of approximately $761,000.  Accordingly, the Company
is considered to be in the development stage. Accordingly,  the Company is fully
dependent upon management and/or significant  stockholders to provide sufficient
working  capital to preserve the integrity of the  corporate  entity during this
phase.  It is the intent of management and  significant  stockholders to provide
sufficient  working  capital  necessary to support and preserve the integrity of
the corporate entity.

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles 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 revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting  period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1.   Cash and cash equivalents
     -------------------------

     The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks,  including accounts in
     book overdraft  positions,  certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid
     investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased,  to be
     cash and cash equivalents.

2.   Property and equipment
     ----------------------

     Property and  equipment are recorded at  historical  cost.  These costs are
     depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the individual  assets using
     the straight-line method.

     Gains and losses from  disposition of property and equipment are recognized
     as incurred and are included in operations.

3.   Organization costs
     ------------------

     Costs related to the  organization of the Company have been capitalized and
     are being amortized over a five year period using the straight-line method.



                                                                            F-8

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

4.   Patents
     -------

     In  September  1990,  the Company was  assigned U. S. Patent No.  4,954,391
     entitled  "Protected Complex of Procaine for the Treatment of Symptoms from
     Narcotics  Addiction,  Tinnitus  and  Alzheimer's  Disease".  The patent is
     stated at cost and will be amortized  over the remaining life of the patent
     starting in the first period in which commercial production of the patented
     products begins.

5.   Deferred offering costs
     -----------------------

     Deferred public offering costs represent accounting, legal and underwriting
     costs incurred by the Company  pertaining to an  anticipated  future public
     offering of the Company's  common stock.  The costs will be charged against
     additional  paid-in capital  (deducted from stock proceeds) upon completion
     of the public  offering,  or charged  to  expense  if the  offering  is not
     completed. During Fiscal 1993, all capitalized deferred costs were expensed

6.   Loss per share
     --------------

     Basic  earnings  (loss) per share is computed  by  dividing  the net income
     (loss) by the weighted-average  number of shares of common stock and common
     stock  equivalents  (primarily  outstanding  options and warrants).  Common
     stock equivalents  represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of
     the  outstanding  stock options and/or  warrants,  using the treasury stock
     method.  The calculation of fully diluted earnings (loss) per share assumes
     the dilutive effect of the exercise of outstanding  options and/or warrants
     at either the beginning of the respective  period  presented or the date of
     issuance,  whichever is later.  As of March 31, 1994 and 1993,  the Company
     has no items which would be considered to be dilutive.


Note C - Due to Shareholder/Officer

The Company's chief executive  officer,  who is also a significant  shareholder,
has advanced certain funds to the Company,  paid certain expenses of the Company
directly and is employed under the terms of an employment contract.  The amounts
presented in the accompanying  financial statements reflect the aggregate sum of
all funds advanced and accrued, but unpaid,  compensation under the terms of the
employment  agreement.  These amounts are non-interest  bearing and are due upon
demand.


Note D - Common Stock Transactions

In July 1993, the Company issued  1,000,000 of unregistered,  restricted  common
stock to its chief executive officer and shareholder in payment of approximately
$163,000 in advances and accrued,  but unpaid,  compensation  through  March 31,
1993.


                                                                            F-9

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


Note D - Common Stock Transactions - Continued

At various times during  Fiscal 1994,  the Company  issued an aggregate  260,000
shares of unregistered,  restricted common stock to an individual and a law firm
as compensation  for professional  services.  These  transactions  were recorded
using an estimated fair value of  approximately  $0.16 per share,  or $41,600 in
the aggregate,  which  approximates  the value of the services  provided and the
equivalent  valuation  on the shares  issued to satisfy  the  payment of accrued
executive  compensation  and  repayment of officer  advances as discussed in the
preceding paragraph.

During Fiscal 1993,  the Company  issued  approximately  47,242 shares of common
stock  upon  the  exercise  of  outstanding  warrants,  prior  to the  call  and
cancellation   of  all  outstanding   warrants  on  November  20,  1992.   These
transactions generated approximately $59,700 in cash proceeds to the Company.


Note E - Contingencies

On June 1, 1992, the Company entered into an Employment Contract (Contract) with
an  individual  to serve as the  Company's  President.  The Contract  requires a
annual base salary,  as specified to use the Contract's  anniversary  dates,  as

        June 1, 1993 to May 31, 1994                          105,000
        June 1, 1994 to May 31, 1995                          115,000
        June 1, 1995 to May 31, 1996                          125,000
        June 1, 1996 to May 31, 1997                          135,000
        June 1, 1997 to May 31, 1998                          145,000
        June 1, 1998 to May 31, 1999                          155,000

Additionally, the Contract provides for discretionary bonuses, paid vacation and
sick leave time, use of a Company  automobile or reimbursement  for the use of a
personal  automobile and various normal  insurance  coverage for life and health
coverages.

The Company and its President are  defendants in a case initiated in August 1992
in Circuit  Court for the 15th Judicial  Circuit for Palm Beach County,  Florida
seeking  damages  related  to the  termination  of a  partnership  which was the
predecessor to the Company.  In February 1999, this litigation was authorized to
be settled by the Company's Board of Directors  through the  transference of the
patent assigned to the Company to the plaintiff.
