                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

       The condensed interim financial statements included herein have been
         prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
         information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
         statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
         regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are
         adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

       These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
         adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair
         presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that
         these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
         financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form
         10-SB filed March 14, 2000 as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed
         May 8, 2000 and Amendment No. 2 thereto filed June 14, 2000. The
         Company follows the same accounting policies in preparation of interim
         reports.

       Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of
         annual results.


2. COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN:

       As shown in the accompanying financial statements the Company has
         incurred recurring losses from operations and resulting cash flow
         deficits. It also has current liabilities significantly in excess of
         current assets and a significant deficit in total stockholders' equity.
         These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
         continue as a going concern as of March 31, 2000.

       Management continues to focus on its marketing and sales of water testing
         kits, which represent a relatively new product line. Management
         believes that this new line will help the Company to achieve
         profitability. The Company's ultimate ability to become profitable,
         however, is contingent on its achieving significantly higher sales
         levels. Until that occurs and until the Company generates positive cash
         flow from operations, additional outside funding will continue to be
         required. The Company has in place a credit line with Mr. Wilbur
         Peters, a related party and stockholder, as discussed in Note 3. The
         Company anticipates that this credit line will provide the necessary
         funding it requires for the next year. However, Mr. Peters is not
         required to make advances on such line of credit and as a result there
         is no guarantee that such funding will be available.

       The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be
         necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

       Through March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $219,700 in
         borrowings outstanding on a $750,000 revolving line of credit from
         Wilbur Peters. This line of credit provides that advances will be made
         at the discretion of the lender and requires monthly interest payments
         at the LIBOR rate plus 1.5%. Interest accrued at March 31, 2000, was
         approximately $1,200. Interest expense on this note totals
         approximately $2,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2000.


4. RESTATEMENT OF STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY ACCOUNTS:

       Subsequent to the original issuance of its financial statements as of
         March 31, 2000, the Company has revised its financial statements as of
         December 31, 1999. The effect of this revision is to increase the
         beginning retained earnings deficit as of January 1, 2000 by $3,461,504
         and increase paid-in capital at that date by the same amount. The
         effect of this change on the Company's balance sheet as of March 31,
         2000, is to increase those same accounts by $3,461,504 over the
         balances originally presented. These revisions do not change total
         stockholders' equity.

ITEM  2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Financial Statements and the related notes thereto contained in Item
1.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTERS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND MARCH 31, 2000

         Revenues from operations for the first quarter of 2000 increased 9% to
$388,218 from $357,490 for the first quarter of 1999. The increase in operating
revenues was primarily the result of a 20% increase in sales of our PurTest(R)
line of products, which grew from $169,365 in the first quarter of 1999 to
$203,045 in the first quarter of 2000. Sales of our PurTest(R) products improved
principally as a result of the successful implementation of our efforts to
expand distribution of such products at the retail level. Also contributing to
the improvement in operating revenues was an increase in revenues from the sales
and service of water treatment equipment up 24% from $103,984 in the first
quarter of 1999 to $129,418 in the first quarter of 2000. Due chiefly to a shift
in focus and resources toward development of our PurTest(R) line of products,
revenues from our water vending and misting operations decreased 34% from
$84,141 in the first quarter of 1999 to $55,755 in the first quarter of 2000.


         Primarily as a result of our securing a five year contract with a test
strip provider, which enabled us to obtain test strips at a lower cost, the
absence of research and development costs and improvements in operating
efficiencies made possible by our increased production of PurTest(R) products,
gross margin increased to 25% in the first quarter of 2000 from 17% in the first
quarter of 1999. We would anticipate continued improvement in operating
efficiencies, and therefore in gross margin, to the extent we are able to
execute our strategy of expanding distribution of our Pur-Test(R) products. Any
such improvement would, however, be offset to the extent we incur research and
development costs in connection with the expansion of our Pur-Test(R) product
line.


         Loss from operations only was $188,253 in the first quarter of 2000
compared to a loss of $151,501 in the first quarter of 1999. The principal
expense item contributing to this increase in loss was professional fees,
primarily associated with our filing of a Registration Statement on Form 10-SB
to register our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which
were $73,625 in the first quarter of 2000, up from $4,330 in the first quarter
of 1999. We anticipate incurring a relatively high level of professional fees
associated with our becoming a public reporting company.


         Net loss for the first quarter of 2000, was $199,214, compared to net
loss for the first quarter of 1999 of $286,046. Net loss improved primarily
because of a decrease in interest expenses from $136,136 in the first quarter of
1999 to $12,415 in the first quarter of 2000. Interest expense was reduced as a
result of the elimination during 1999 of debt owed to C. Wilbur Peters, Chairman
of our board. On June 30, 1999 Mr. Peters forgave approximately $2,150,000 of
our debt to him and on November 5, 1999 Mr. Peters released and discharged the
balance due on our $3,035,529 promissory note to him in exchange for our issuing
31,290 shares of our Series B, Class B preferred stock to Mr. Peters.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         We have incurred operating losses each year since our inception.
Throughout that time C. Wilbur Peters, Chairman of our board, or entities
controlled by Mr. Peters have funded our operations by lending money to us and
by leasing equipment to us used in our business. Under a $400,000 promissory
note dated September 1, 1992 issued by us to CTF, Inc., a non-profit corporation
controlled by Mr. Peters, we owed approximately $400,000 at March 31, 2000. This
note is payable on demand and bears interest at prime plus 2%. On July 1, 1999,
we established a line of credit with Mr. Peters in the amount of $750,000
evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at the LIBOR Market Index Rate
plus 1.50%, due and payable on June 30, 2001. At March 31, 2000, the outstanding
balance of that note was approximately $219,700. Mr. Peters has no legal
obligation to make advances upon that note.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11

         Net cash used by operating activities was $180,436 in the first quarter
of 2000 and $129,265 in the first quarter of 1999. In both such quarters cash to
fund such negative cash flows was obtained from the financing arrangements
described above. We do not expect positive cash flows from our operations during
2000 and into 2001. Even if we are successful in continuing to expand our
product distribution, we expect that such expansion will continue to require
additional cash. We believe that our cash on hand, cash generated from
operations, and advances on our current line of credit (which Mr. Peters is not
obligated to make) will enable us to continue our operations through July 2001.
No assurance can be given, however, that Mr. Peters will continue to advance
funds under the line of credit, that such funds will satisfy our needs for such
period or that, if needed, additional funds will be available. If we are unable
to obtain any such additional necessary financing our financial condition and
results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT AS TO FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

         Statements in this report as to projections of future financial or
economic performance of the Company, and statements of our plans and objectives
for future operations are "forward looking" statements, and are being provided
in reliance upon the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Important factors that could cause actual results
or events to differ materially from those projected, estimated, assumed or
anticipated in any such forward looking statements include: general economic
conditions in our markets including inflation; recession; increased competition
from existing competitors and from any new entrants in our markets; any loss of
key management personnel; changes in governmental regulations applicable to our
business; and the availability of additional funding necessary to support our
operations in the event our currently available funding sources prove inadequate
or unavailable.
