                                 INTERIORS, INC.

   
           555,000 Shares of Class A Common Stock, and 150,000 Shares
              Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
    
                                   ----------

   
         This Prospectus (the "Prospectus") and the registration statement of
which this Prospectus forms a part (the "Registration Statement") relates to the
sale of 555,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "Common Stock") and 150,000
Shares of Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Stock") by certain selling securityholders ("Selling Securityholders").
    

         The securities offered hereby may be sold from time to time directly by
the Selling Securityholders. Alternatively, the Selling Securityholders may from
time to time offer such securities through underwriters, dealers or agents. The
distribution of securities by the Selling Securityholders may be effected in one
or more transactions that may take place on the over-the-counter market,
including ordinary broker's transactions, privately-negotiated transactions or
through sales to one or more broker-dealers for resale of such shares as
principals, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or
specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the Selling
Securityholders in connection with such sales of securities. The securities
offered by the Selling Securityholders may be sold by one or more of the
following methods, without limitations: (a) a block trade in which a broker or
dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and
resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (b)
purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer
for its account pursuant to this Prospectus; (c) ordinary brokerage transactions
and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers, and (d) face-to-face
transactions between sellers and purchasers without a broker-dealer. In
effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the Selling Securityholders may
arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. The Selling Securityholders
and intermediaries through whom such securities are sold may be deemed

"underwriters" within the meaning of the Act with respect to the securities
offered, and any profits realized or commissions received may be deemed
underwriting compensation.

         At the time a particular offer of securities is made by or on behalf of
the Selling Securityholders, to the extent required, a Prospectus will be
distributed which will set forth the number of shares being offered and the
terms of the Offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers
or agents, if any, the purchase price paid by any underwriter for sales
purchased from the Selling Securityholders and any discounts, commissions or
concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers and the proposed selling
price to the public.

         Prior to the Company's initial public offering (the "Initial Public
Offering") of 517,500 Class A Shares, 460,000 Class WA Warrants and 258,750
Class WB Warrants (including securities issued upon exercise of the
over-allotment option granted to J. Gregory & Company, Inc., the Representative
of the Underwriters (the "Representative") in connection with the Initial Public
Offering) in June 1994, there was no established trading market for the Class A
Shares or the Warrants. In September 1995, the Company completed a secondary
public offering 460,000 shares of Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock (the
"Series A Preferred Shares") and 230,000 Redeemable Class WC Warrants (the
"Class WC Warrants"). The Company's Series A Preferred Shares, Class A Shares,
Class WA Warrants, Class WB Warrants and Class WC Warrants are currently listed
for quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market ("Nasdaq") under the symbols
"INTXP", "INTXA, "INTXL", "INTXW," and "INTXZ," respectively. As of the date of
this prospectus, the last reported bid and ask prices of the Company's Series A
Preferred Shares, Class A Shares, Class WA Warrants , Class WB Warrants and
Class WC Warrants as reported by Nasdaq on such date were $           ,

for Class WB Warrants $           and $           , respectively, for Class WC

securities that has developed since completion of the Initial Public Offering
will continue or be sustained. See "Market for the Company's Securities and
Related Stockholder Matters" and "Risk Factors."

B Common Share is entitled to five (5) votes. The Series A Preferred Stock has
no voting rights, but each Series A Preferred Share is convertible into three
(3) shares of Class A Common Stock commencing September 18, 1996. After
September 17, 2000, the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable by the Company in
whole or in part at $5.50 per share upon 30 days prior written notice. The

Italia Collection

         On October 21, 1994 (the "Closing Date") the Company, through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Italia, acquired all of the issued and outstanding
stock of Murano Crystal Corp. ("Murano"), a Florida corporation doing business

under the name "Italia Collection," pursuant to the terms of a certain stock
purchase agreement dated October 21, 1994 (the "Murano Purchase Agreement")
between Italia and Murano and Stephen M. Tucker, the sole stockholder and
acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Ceramic Productions
Corp., a Florida corporation ("Ceramic") pursuant to the terms of a certain
stock purchase agreement dated as of such date (the "Ceramic Purchase
Agreement") between Italia and Ceramic and Stephen M. Tucker and Michael D.
Tucker, the sole stockholders.

   
         During April 1996, the Company moved the operations of Italia to the
offices The Lance Corporation ("Lance"), a Massachusetts manufacturer and
distributor of various products tot he giftware and collectibles market. Lance
was acquired by the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Lance
Acquisition Corporation in March 1996. Subsequent to the relocation of Italia to
Lance, disagreements arose between the Company and Lance, Lance's
    
                                        4

management arranged for an orderly return of certain acquired assets, and the
Company was required to again relocate the operations of Italia to the Company's
headquarters. These relocations led to a significant disruption of Italia's
business operations. Italia's revenues declined substantially during this
period. Because of these declining revenues and high operating costs, on
December 16, 1996, the Board of Directors decided to discontinue and dissolve
Italia. On December 27, 1996, a Notice of Public Auction was distributed by the
Company, advising all interested parties that a public auction of all of the
assets of Italia consisting of molds, equipment, models, and inventory listed in
a Security Agreement entered into between Italia, as debtor, and United Credit
Corporation, as secured party, was to occur. The auction took place on January
10, 1997 and the Company was the successful bidder, thereby acquiring all of the
assets of Italia in consideration of a payment of $2,000 and the assumption by
the Company of the liabilities of Italia to United Credit Corporation, which as
of March 31, 1997 totaled approximately $506,000. Since the financial statements
of Italia are consolidated into those of the Company, Italia's liabilities have
already been reflected on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. As of
the date of this filing, the Company has not made a determination of the
realizability of assets acquired pursuant to this auction. Such evaluation will
take place during the subsequent period. Should any charge against earnings be
accordingly necessary, they will be recorded at the time such charge is
determined. See "Business."
    

Discontinuation of operations of Interiors Catalog

   
         On March 31, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors decided to
discontinue the Company's catalog operations because of declining revenues and
high operating costs. For the six months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
losses from discontinuing catalog operations totaled $0 and $560,350,
respectively. The Company plans to fully carry out the discontinuation of the

catalog operation by June 30, 1997. The Company plans to wind down operations by
filling existing orders and possibly mailing one final catalog as a "close-out
sale" to liquidate inventory. No catalog related assets or liabilities are
expected to remain on the Company's balance sheet by June 30, 1997. The
financial statements included with this filing have reclassified the results of
operations for the six months ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 as
if the Company's catalog operations had been discontinued in the beginning of
each respective fiscal period..
    

Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances

   
         Part of the Company's long-term plan for growth includes either the
acquisition of or entering into strategic alliances with unrelated companies in
the decorative accessories industry to maximize market potential. For this
purpose, pursuant to a March 3, 1996 agreement relating to the capitalization of
Decor Group, Inc., ("Decor"), an affiliate of the Company, Decor issued to the
Company 250,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which have
since been sold by the Company, and an option to purchase 10,000,000 shares of
its Series B Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Option Shares") in
exchange for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000 shares of its Class A
Common Stock and 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred stock and
a guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness should such indebtedness become
necessary. (The Decor securities are adjusted to reflect a 1-for-2 reverse split
effected by Decor in October 1996.) Also, the Company exercised its option to
purchase the Option Shares in September 1996, for total cash consideration of
$2,000. Concurrent with the exercise of this option, the Company executed a
Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement") to vest the power to vote the Option
Shares in a Voting Trust (the "Voting Trust".) The Voting Agreement will expire
on December 31, 1997. The Voting Trust comprises three individuals: the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer (and also the Chairman of the
Board of Decor), and two Directors of Decor who are otherwise unrelated to the
Company. As part of the Company's investment in Decor, during the months of
August and September 1996, the Company purchased 54,934 shares of Decor's Series
C Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock at a cost of $824,000. In the
formation of Decor, the Company's intention was to create an affiliate with a
corporate identity clearly separate and distinct from that of the Company. Decor
was organized for the purpose of acquiring the business operations of unrelated
companies. On

November 12, 1996 (the "Effective Date"), a public offering by Decor of certain
of its securities was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Subsequent to the effective date of Decor's initial public offering,
the Company owned approximately 79.6% of the total voting stock of Decor. As of
December 31, 1996, the holding in Decor is recorded on the Company's financial
statements at the market value on November 12, 1996, the "Measurement Date" of
the Company's trading securities previously transferred to Decor during March
1996. In December 1996, Decor declared and issued a dividend on its common stock

payable in the form of two (2) shares of common stock for each one (1) share of
common stock held as of the record date of December 16, 1996. Each share of
Decor's Series A and Series C Preferred stock are convertible into three (3)
shares of Decor's common stock effective December 16, 1996. During February
1997, the Company sold its entire holdings of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock to an independent investor. Assuming conversion by the subsequent holder
to common stock, the Company will own approximately 77.5% of the total voting
stock of Decor subsequent to such sale and conversion.
    

   
         In May 1996, the Company entered into a two year Management Services
Agreement with Decor whereby the Company will advise Decor on the manufacturing,
sale, marketing and distribution of Decor's products as well as providing Decor
with accounting and administrative services and advice on strategic planning of
joint ventures, acquisitions, and other long term initiatives. Pursuant to this
agreement, the Company will be paid on an annual basis the greater of (1)
$75,000 or (2) 1.5% of excess cashflow as defined in the agreement. The Company
and Decor amended this agreement to increase this payment to $90,000 per annum.
Additional transfers of funds from Decor to the Company will be subject to the
attainment by Decor of excess cash flow totaling $4,000,000 per year through
December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1996, the Company has accrued approximately
$57,000 of fees pursuant to this agreement.
    

   
         Decor entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with
Artisan House, Inc. ("Artisan House") to purchase substantially all of the
operating assets, and assume certain liabilities of Artisan House for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,526,400, subject to certain adjustments. Decor
completed the Artisan House acquisition on November 18, 1996. Artisan House,
located in Los Angeles, California and founded in 1964, is engaged in the
design, manufacturing, and marketing of metal wall, table and freestanding
sculptures. Management believes that Artisan House's products bridge the gap
between high priced gallery art and mass produced decorative pieces. Artisan
House products retail from approximately $100 to over $400. The primary goal of
Artisan House is to supply a broad spectrum of design driven sculpture and
decorative accessories at moderate prices. At December 31, 1996, the balance
sheet of Artisan House reflected total assets of approximately $4,500,000. For
the period November 19, 1996 to December 31, 1996, Artisan House realized net
income of approximately $41,000 on revenues totaling approximately $635,000.
    

   
         Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer, was issued 9 of the outstanding 100 Common shares of Lance Acquisition
Corp. ("LAC") which on March 3, 1996 acquired the assets of The Lance
Corporation ("Lance") a Massachusetts manufacturer and distributor of various
products for the giftware and collectibles marketplace. The Company and LAC
entered into an agreement whereby each entity will guarantee certain liabilities
of the other. Subsequently, LAC disposed of its assets acquired from Lance, and
has finalized the terms of transition with the new owners and existing secured
creditors. (See "The Company - Italia Collection")

         Recent Developments

   
         In February 1997 the Company received a loan from BH Funding, LLC
("BH") in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000 to be utilized to repay
certain indebtedness of the Company and for continued operating expenses.
Simultaneously with the loan to the Company, BH purchased all of the Company's
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock holdings in Decor Group, Inc., a total of
250,000 shares. In addition, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement
with BH whereby BH would agree to provide consulting services to the Company in
exchange for 100,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and 100,000
shares of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred stock (the "Consulting
Shares"). The Consulting Shares are being registered as a part of their
Registration Statement.
    

   
         In November 1996, the Company announced that it has entered into an
exclusive three year contract with Photo-to-Art, Inc., a major "direct-in-home"
marketer of customized "photo to canvas" computer-enhanced enlargements. This
process enables a customer to have photographs digitally enhanced, scanned,
enlarged and printed at considerably less cost than traditional photographic
enlargement processes. Under the agreement, the Company will finish, pack,
frame, and fulfill all of the marketer's products. Although the Company expects
significant revenue growth from this new arrangement, no assurances can be given
that such an outcome will actually occur. As of March 31, 1997, approximately
$241,000 of revenues have been realized by the Company from this relationship.
    

         On October 24, 1996, the Company received notification from The Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") that the Company's capital and surplus was less
than $1,000,000, thereby failing to satisfy a requirement for continued listing
of its securities on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Company was subject to
delisting effective November 7, 1996 if the Company did not demonstrate that it
currently meets all Nasdaq SmallCap Market listing criteria. On November 13,
1996, the Company received notification from Nasdaq that the Company currently
meets Nasdaq SmallCap Market listing criteria.

         In October 1996, the Company filed its June 30, 1996 Form 10-KSB. The
Company's independent auditors have modified their report on the Company's
financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1996. The Company's ability to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful achievement of

certain initiatives currently in progress.

       

         The Company's executive offices are located at 320 Washington Street,
Mt. Vernon, New York 10553. Its telephone number is (914) 665-5400.

                                  RISK FACTORS

         The purchase of the securities offered hereby involves a high degree of
risk. Prospective purchasers should carefully consider the following risk
factors, as well as other matters set forth elsewhere in this Prospectus, before
deciding whether to invest in the Company's securities

   
         Modified Auditor's Report; Working Capital Deficit:. The Company's
independent auditors have modified their report on the Company's financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 1996. The Company's ability to continue
as a going concern is dependent upon the successful achievement of certain
initiatives currently in progress. Most importantly, the Company has made a
major investment in Decor Group, Inc. ("Decor"). Effective November 19, 1996,
Decor has acquired substantially all of the operating assets and assumed certain
liabilities of a California based manufacturer of metal wall-art and related
accessories. To finance this acquisition, Decor offered for sale to the public
certain of its equity shares. Such Offering was declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 1996. (See "Business") As of
December 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately
$1,091,000 and negative cash flow from operations for the quarter ending
December 31, 1996 totaling approximately $1,155,000. See "Business." Further, in
connection with Decor's public offering, the Company will recognize any gains in
accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 51.
    

   
         Cash Flow Constraints: The Company has been experiencing a shortage of
working capital since commencement of its catalog operations in February 1992.
Initially, this shortage was due substantially to the fact that the unexpected
response to catalog mailings and therefore the demand for the products offered
exceeded the Company's ability to finance the cost of inventory levels adequate
for such demand, thus leading to delays in fulfilling orders. Ultimately, the
working capital shortages became more a function of the difficulty in sustaining
revenue levels from the catalog business and the high costs associated with the
conduct of such business, particularly with respect to recent substantial
increases in paper, printing, and postage costs. Although management has decided
to discontinue the catalog business as of March 31, 1996, there can be no
assurance that such action will eliminate current cash restraints. Because of
the Company's cash flow constraints, it has experienced problems in making
payments for such liabilities as payroll taxes, accrued rent, and third-party
debt service. As of the date of this filing, the Company is meeting all current
obligations for payroll taxes and rent, has paid all its prior period payroll
tax liabilities, and has fully accrued all tax liabilities for its Italia
Collections, Inc. subsidiary. The Company is also working to arrange for
mutually agreeable paydowns of existing debt. In support of this effort, during
February 1997, the Company arranged for additional financing of approximately
$975,000 based on a loan of $600,000 and the sale of certain its holdings in
Decor Group, Inc. to BH Funding, LLC. No assurances, however, can be given that
the Company's efforts will ultimately be successful. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,"

"Business, " and "Financial Statements and Notes."
    

   
         Dependence on major customers.The Company's A.P.F. Master Framemakers
Division conducts significant business activities with certain major customers.
For example, revenues during the six months ended December 31, 1996 from
shipments to The Limited, Inc. totaled approximately $656.000, or approximately
29% of total revenues. No guarantees can be given that the Company will continue
to receive orders from existing major customers. Should such customers
discontinue the placement of orders with the Company, the resulting diminishment
of the Company's revenues and results of operations would be significant.
    

   
         Financing costs of doing business. Currently, the Company incurs
significant costs incurred in the financing of its business operations. Two
principal sources of financing are currently available to the Company. On
February 15, 1995, the Company entered into a financing agreement with a New
York based secured lender whereby its Italia Collection subsidiary may borrow
pursuant to an asset-related formula. Under this agreement, upon confirmation of
shipments, the lender will advance 70% of the receivable to the Company. Upon
collection of the receivable, the lender remits the balance of 30%. Interest is
calculated on the daily cash balance at the rate of prime plus 9% per annum
(17.25% as of the date of this filing) or a minimum of 18% per annum against a
minimum
    

                                       12

monthly defined compensation of $3,000. As of March 31, 1997, the amount due to
the lender was approximately $506,000. The Company is currently pursuing
alternative financing arrangements, but as of the date of this Prospectus, no
such arrangements have been made. No assurances can be given that alternative
arrangements, whether or not at more favorable terms, can be made. As of the
date of this Prospectus, interest charges for the six months ended December 31,
1996 pursuant to this arrangement total approximately $77,000. The Company
currently maintains a line of credit with a New York bank based on receivables
and inventories, bearing interest at a rate of prime plus 1% (9.25% as of the
date of this Prospectus.) As of March 31, 1997, the balance of the line of
credit is $715,000. Interest charges for the six months ended December 31, 1996
pursuant to this line of credit total approximately $41,000. The Company and the
bank have agreed that the line of credit will be reduced by $30,000 per month.
Accordingly, the Company is seeking alternative arrangements. No such
arrangements have been made as of the date of this Prospectus, nor can any
assurances be given that alternative arrangements can be made at more-favorable
or even comparable terms. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis."
    

   
         Liquidity of Current Business Operations. Management believes that cash

flow from operations as they currently exist are not sufficient to support such
operations. For the six months ended December 31, 1996, approximately $1,155,000
of cash was used in the Company's operating activities. Accordingly, Company
management is now identifying and implementing the corrective changes deemed
necessary. The Company has taken certain specific steps for this purpose. As of
March 31, 1996, the Company has decided to discontinue its catalog operation.
The difficulty associated with the maintenance of such revenues, together with
relatively high costs of operations have led to this decision. Also, during the
months of March and April 1996, the Company moved its Italia Collections
subsidiary to The Lance Corporation (Lance), a Massachusetts manufacturer and
distributor of various products to the giftware and collectibles market.
Subsequently, the Company determined that this facility is not suitable to its
operating needs. Accordingly, during July 1996, Company management relocated
substantially all of Italia's physical assets to its New York headquarters.
These relocations led to significant disruption of Italia's business operations.
Italia's revenues declined substantially during this period. Because of these
declining revenues and high operating costs, on December 16, 1996, the Board of
Directors decided to discontinue and dissolve Italia. (See "The Company - Italia
Collection".) During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company entered
into an exclusive three-year contract to provide certain services to a major
"direct-in-home" marketer of computer enhanced photographic enlargements. The
Company expects that this arrangement will provide significant incremental
revenues. Finally, the Company is currently reviewing its staffing needs and has
already made certain staff reductions. No assurances can be given that the
actions described above, or any subsequent actions will fully meet management
expectations. As of March 1997, the Company's cash flow has become neutral. See
"Management Discussion and Analysis"and "Business - Italia Collection".
    

         Dilution. Dilution may result to holders of the Company's Series A
Preferred Shares in the event of exercise of outstanding Warrants at exercise
prices that are less than the prices paid by purchasers of Series A Preferred
Shares. Additional dilution may result to holders of the Company's Class A
Common Shares in the event of the conversion of outstanding Class B Shares,
Series A Preferred Shares, or the exercise of outstanding Warrants, or options
at exercise prices that are less than the prices paid by purchasers of Class A
Shares. See "Description of Securities," and "Recent Developments."

         Dependence on Management. The Company is highly dependent on the
services of Max Munn, President, Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer. The loss
of the services of this executive could have a material adverse effect upon the
business and prospects of the Company. In the event that the Company's financial
condition stabilizes, the Company will investigate securing "key person" life
insurance in the amount of one million dollars on the life of Max Munn. See
"Management" and "Executive Compensation"

         Voting Control by a related party, a former Director, and an escrow
agent. Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
owns approximately 25.5% (519,750), Theodore Stevens, a former director of the
Company owns approximately 13.2% (269,750), and 

                                       13

<PAGE>


   
Michael Levine, as escrow agent owns approximately 61.3% (1,250,000) of the
Company's 2,039,500 issued and outstanding Class B Shares, each such Class B
Share entitled to five votes or approximately 70.4% of the votes to which the
Class A and Class B Shares taken as a single class are entitled and assuming
that none of the outstanding Warrants is exercised. Accordingly, these three
individuals are in a position to influence the election of the Company's
directors and the Company's business affairs. The escrow shares are entitled to
vote only in the event of the Company's default under its settlement agreement
with Ann Stevens, a former Company executive. As of the date of this filing, the
Company is not in default on its obligation under the settlement agreement. See
"Description of Securities" and "Certain Transactions." Also see subsequent risk
factor "Terms of Settlement of Litigation Involving Related Parties."
    

   
         Potential Conflicts of Interest. The Company has from time to time
entered into certain transactions with its officers, directors and/or associates
and relatives of such persons. Since two independent directors, and only one
inside director, currently serve on the Company's Board of Directors, the
likelihood of such transactions to continue in the future is minimized. Also,
all related party lawsuits were settled in July 1996. See "Certain Transactions,
"Terms of Settlement of Litigation Involving Related Parties," and "Legal
Proceedings."
    

         Dependence on Skilled Craftsmen and Salespersons. The Company's A.P.F.
Master Framemakers division, a provider of fine picture frames for art
galleries, upscale retail picture framers, museums, collectors and decorators in
the U.S., relies on its skilled craftsmen with specialized skills in the design
and crafting of its frames and the manufacture of other of its products.
Although the Company attempts to hire and train skilled craftsmen, the inability
of the Company to retain skilled craftsmen and creative designers may adversely
affect the division's operations. Furthermore, the Company is dependent on the
showroom salespersons who have relationships with museum curators, art
collectors, architects and other purchasers of "museum" quality picture frames.
The loss of such persons could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
See "Business Personnel."

   
         Possible Change of Control. Various legal proceedings, now settled,
occurred between and among the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer,
his wife, other members of the Company's Board of Directors, a former member of
the Company's Board of Directors, and such former member's wife who was also a
Company executive. The proceedings involved various issues, but primarily
involved the composition of the Company's Board of Directors, the status of a
sale of 269,500 of the Company's Class B Common shares by Theodore Stevens to
Laurie Munn, an alleged breach of an employment agreement between the Company
and Ann Stevens, wife of Theodore Stevens (a former Director), the status of a
sale of 250,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common shares to Laurie Munn,
and the sustainability of any election at a shareholder's meeting should the
Company hold such a meeting during the pendency of certain legal proceedings.
The parties to these various actions have entered into various agreements in

settlement of all differences. Under the terms of settlement, the Company must,
among other things, provide over the seven years beginning June 1996 bi-weekly
payments to Ann Stevens in settlement of her employment agreement with the
Company. Ms. Stevens' attorney, Michael Levine, Esq. has been appointed escrow
agent and issued 1,250,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock (the
"Escrow Shares"). Mr. Levine is empowered to vote these shares, which represent
voting control of the Company, to replace the Company's Board of Directors in
the event of the Company's default of its obligations under the settlement
agreements. After the Company fully performs under the settlement agreements,
the Escrow Shares will be returned to the Company. See "Business - Legal
Proceedings."
    

         Possibility of Litigation Involving Works of Art. Although the Company
endeavors to buy products which it believes the supplier has the right to
distribute, in the event an artist claims that his copyright has been violated,
the Company may be joined in any action against the supplier for infringement.
Each of the Company's vendors is required to execute and return to the Company a
certificate that the merchandise conforms to all federal and state laws as to
labeling, brands, etc. and agreeing to indemnify the Company against claims
arising from violation of trademark, patent or similar laws; however, there can
be no assurance that the Company would be successful in enforcing

                                       14

<PAGE>

any such agreement. The Company knows of no such claims which have been asserted
nor lawsuits which have been threatened other than as disclosed herein. There
can be no assurance that claims and/or lawsuits will not arise in the future or
that the cost of defending such actions will not be material. See "Business -
Legal Proceedings" and " - Patents and Trademarks."

         Consent Order for Permanent Injunction as to Max Munn. In September
1991, without admitting or denying the allegations, Max Munn, the Company's
President and Chief Executive Officer agreed with the Federal Trade Commission
(FTC) to the entry of a Consent Order in an action brought against Mr. Munn and
others; which action arose out of the advertising of certain lithographs of
original works of art as regards to whether or not the artist had played a
substantial role in the production of lithographs. The case was settled before
trial or discovery solely with entry of the above Consent Order; which enjoins
Mr. Munn from making certain representations in connection with the sale of any
works of art. The Consent Order also requires Mr. Munn for a period of five
years (which expired as of September 1996) as to the maintenance of certain
records as they concern the sale of certain lithographs.

         Competition. The custom framing industry in the United States is highly
fragmented and consists primarily of small, local framing retailers. Only a few
companies are basic manufacturers of higher priced picture frames, which frames
are selected for valuable works of art owned by museums, galleries and
collectors. Custom framing of this type is not in competition with local retail
frame stores. Management of the Company believes that its A.P.F. Master
Framemakers division is one of the largest custom framers of its type in the
country. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to

maintain its position in this industry.

         Management believes that the sale of decorative accessories in the
wholesale market is also highly fragmented, with thousands of small, specialized
manufacturers and distributors. Management is not aware of a manufacturer of
upscale decorative accessories similar to those distributed by Italia.

   
         Reliance on Outside Suppliers. All picture and mirror frame
manufacturing is performed by the Company in its facility in Mt. Vernon, New
York. The Company purchases wood, gold leaf, plexiglass, matboards, composite
resins, and other materials from a wide variety of sources, and has at least
two, and often more, suppliers for each item used in its manufacturing process,
and is not dependent upon any sole supplier. Nevertheless, due to the
specialized nature of the Company's business operations and materials
requirements, should the present mix of suppliers change, a potential disruption
to the Company's business could occur. See "Business - Suppliers."
    

         Convertibility of Class B Common Stock and Super Voting Rights. The
Company's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to
2,500,000 Class B Shares, 269,750 of which are currently owned by Theodore
Stevens, a former director of the Company, 519,750 of which are currently owned
by Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, and
1,250,000 of which are held in escrow by Michael Levine as escrow agent and
designated as "Escrow Shares." (See preceding risk factor - Terms of Settlement
of Litigation Involving Related Parties). Each Class B Share entitles the holder
thereof to five non-cumulative votes per share on all matters on which
stockholders may vote at meetings of stockholders. The Escrow Shares shall only
vote in the event of the Company's default under the terms of settlement
agreements under which the Escrow Shares were issued. The Class A Shares and
Class B Shares shall generally vote together as a single class. The Class B
Shares are convertible on a one-for-one basis at any time after issuance at the
option of the holder into Class A Shares; however, there can be no assurance
that the holder thereof will convert such Class B Shares. The Escrow Shares
however are not subject to conversion. In addition, such conversion could result
in a charge to earnings to the extent that the fair market value of the Class A
Shares exceeds the fair market value of the Class B Shares at the date of
conversion. In addition, while the issue is not entirely clear, the issuance of
additional Class B Shares could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely
affect the voting and other rights of holders of Class A Shares. See
"Description of Securities."

                                       15

<PAGE>

         Reliance on Tradename Reputation. The Company's custom frame operation
is conducted under the tradename "A.P.F. Master Framemakers," which tradename
has been used in the custom frame business since 1955 and which tradename the
Company acquired in 1990. See "The Company." The Company believes that its
ability to market its high-end custom picture and mirror frames has been based
largely upon its reputation as a reliable source of high-quality frames suitable

for use by nationally known museums, art galleries, decorators, fine frame
retailers and collectors. As a result of this reliance on its reputation, if the
Company's custom frame products and service were to be deemed unreliable, the
Company could experience a significant adverse impact.

         Absence of Dividends. The Company has not paid and does not anticipate
paying any cash dividends on its Class A Shares or Class B Shares in the
foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain all working capital and
earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business operations and in the
expansion of its business. In February 1996, the Company did, however, declare a
stock dividend equivalent to $0.25 per share to its Series A 10% Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stockholders of record as of the close of business on
February 23, 1996 (the record date.) Payment was made on March 1, 1996 by the
issuance of 0.10231 of a share of the Company's Class A Common Stock for each
share of Series A Preferred Stock held of record on the record date.
Accordingly, 55,247 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock was issued for
this purpose. Retained earnings was charged $165,741 in March 1996 in
conjunction with the issuance of these shares. See "Dividend Policy" and
"Description of Securities."

   
         Significant retained deficits and negative equity. At December 31,
1996, the Company has recognized retained deficits totaling approximately
$8,900,000. Of this amount, approximately $2,200,000 was incurred as a provision
for the discontinuation of the Company's catalog operation in the fiscal year
ended June 30,1996. At June 30, 1996, the Company had recorded negative net
worth totaling approximately $645,000, primarily because of its retained
deficits. During the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Company raised
additional capital of $2,118,000, incurred a net loss totaling approximately
$115,000, and increased the valuation of its investment in Decor by
approximately $1,701,000. Such actions resulted in the restoration of net worth
to approximately $3,073,000.. However, no assurances can be given that the
Company's net worth will continue to grow in subsequent periods. See "Business."
and risk factor "No Assurance of Public Trading Market or Continued Nasdaq
Inclusion" below.
    

   
         No Assurance of Public Trading Market or Continued Nasdaq Inclusion.
Prior to the Company's Initial Public Offering, which took place on June 23,
1994, there was no established trading market for the Company's securities. In
connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company applied for, and was
granted, inclusion of the Class A Shares, the Class WA Warrants and the Class WB
Warrants on Nasdaq and the Class A Shares and Class WA Warrants commenced
quotation on Nasdaq on June 23, 1994 under the symbols INTXA and INTXW,
respectively. The Class WB Warrants commenced quotation on Nasdaq on June 24,
1994 under the symbol INTXZ. Further, on September 18, 1995, the Company
registered and issued 460,000 shares of Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock and 230,000 Redeemable Class WC Warrants. The Series A, 10%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, and the Redeemable Class WC Warrants
commenced quotation on Nasdaq on September 19, 1995 under the symbols INTXP and
INTXL respectively. See "Market for the Company's Securities and Related
Stockholder Matters." However, there can be no assurance given that the Company
will be able to satisfy the requirements for continued quotation, that such

quotation will otherwise continue or that any market for the Company's
securities that has developed since completion of the Initial Public Offering or
the Preferred Stock Offering will continue or be sustained. If for any reason,
however, any of the Company's securities are not eligible for continued listing
or a public trading market does not develop, purchasers of the Class A Shares,
Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares and/or Warrants may have
difficulty selling their securities should they desire to do so. Under the
current rules adopted by the NASD for continued listing, a company, among other
things, must have $2,000,000 in total assets, $1,000,000 in total capital and
surplus, $1,000,000 in market value of public float and a minimum bid price of
$1.00 per share. As of the date of this filing, The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.
has proposed more stringent financial requirements for listing on The Nasdaq
SmallCap Market.. With respect to continued listing, such new requirements are
(i) at least $2,000,000 in tangible assets, a $35,000,000 market capitalization
or net income of at
    

                                       16

<PAGE>

   
least $500,000 in two of the three prior years, (ii) at least 500,000 shares in
the public float valued at $1,000,000 or more, (iii) a minimum Common Stock bid
price of $1.00, (iv) at least two active market makers, and (v) at least 300
holders of Common Stock. If the Company is unable to satisfy the requirements
for continued quotation on Nasdaq, trading, if any, in the securities would be
conducted in the over-the-counter market in what are commonly referred to as the
"pink sheets" or on the NASD OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. As a result, an
investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate
quotations as to the price of, the Company's securities.
    

         "Penny Stock" Regulations. The Commission has adopted regulations under
the Exchange Act which generally define a "penny stock" to be any equity
security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per share or an
exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. If
the securities offered hereby are removed from Nasdaq, the Company's securities
may be deemed to be "penny stocks" and become subject to rules that impose
additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such
securities. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the
rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule
prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer
also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative, current quotations for the securities, information on
the limited market in penny stocks and, if the broker-dealer is the sole
marketmaker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's
presumed control over the market. In addition, the broker-dealer must obtain a
written acknowledgment from the customer that such disclosure information was
provided and must retain such acknowledgment for at least three years. Further,
monthly statements must be sent disclosing current price information for the
penny stock held in the account. While many Nasdaq-listed securities would
otherwise be covered by the definition of penny stock, transactions in a
non-Nasdaq-listed security would be exempt from all but the sole marketmaker

provision for (i) issuers who have $2,000,000 in tangible assets, (ii)
transactions in which the customer is an institutional accredited investor and
(iii) transactions that are not recommended by the broker-dealer. In addition,
transactions in a Nasdaq-listed security directly with a Nasdaq marketmaker for
such securities would be subject only to the sole marketmaker disclosure, and
the disclosure with respect to commissions to be paid to the broker-dealer and
the registered representative.

         The above-described rules may materially adversely affect the liquidity
for the market for the Company's securities. Such rules may also affect the
ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and may impede the
ability of subsequent holders of the Class A Common Shares, Series A Preferred
Shares, or Warrants to sell such securities in the secondary market.

   
         Future Issuances of Stock by the Company. The Company has authorized
capital stock of 32,500,000 shares of $.001 par value Common Stock, of which
30,000,000 have been designated as Class A Shares and 2,500,000 have been
designated as Class B Shares; and 5,300,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par
value per share (the "Preferred Stock"). As of the date hereof, there are
4,556,091 Class A Shares, 2,039,500 Class B Shares and 1,058,860 Preferred
Shares issued and outstanding. In addition, the Company has issued and
outstanding 3,055,588 Class WA Warrants, 845,150 Class WB Warrants, 2,270,000
Class WC Warrants and Representative's Warrants to purchase 14,985 Class A
Shares, for which it has reserved for issuance an aggregate of 9,673,407 Class A
Shares. Although there are no present plans, agreements or undertakings, written
or oral, with respect to the Company's issuance of any shares of stock or
related convertible securities, other than as disclosed herein, the issuance of
any of such securities by the Company could have anti-takeover effects insofar
as they could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a
change in control of the Company. Such issuance could also dilute the public
ownership of the Company. Inasmuch as the Company may, in the future, issue
authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock without prior stockholder
approval, there may be substantial dilution to the interests of the Company's
stockholders. Given that the Company is authorized to issue additional
securities, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so. In
addition, a stockholder's pro rata ownership interest in the Company may be
reduced to the extent of the issuance and/or exercise of any options or warrants
relating to the Common Stock or Preferred Stock.
    

         Future Sales of Stock by Stockholders. All of the Company's outstanding
Class B Shares are "restricted securities" as that term is defined under the
Securities Act and in the future may only

                                       17

<PAGE>

   
be sold in compliance with an exemption from registration, including Rule 144,
under the Securities Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement.
Rule 144 provides, in essence, that a person (including a group of persons whose
shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a one year holding period for such

restricted securities may sell within any three-month period, under certain
circumstances, an amount of restricted securities which does not exceed the
greater of one percent of that class of the Company's outstanding securities
(45,561 Class A Shares as of the date hereof) or the average weekly trading
volume of that class of securities during the four calendar weeks prior to such
sale. Persons who are not affiliated with the Company and who have held their
restricted securities for at least two years are not subject to the quantity
limitations or the manner of sale restrictions of the rule. As of the date of
this prospectus, Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer owns 519,750 shares of the Company's Class B Common shares,
Ted Stevens, a former Director, owns 269,750 of such Class B shares, and Michael
Levine, as escrow agent, holds 1,250,000 of such Class B Shares, designated
Escrow Shares.(See preceding risk factor - "Terms of Settlement of Litigation
Involving Related Parties.") These holdings comprise all of the Company's
outstanding Class B Common shares as of the date of this filing. Pursuant to
agreements with the Company's investment banking firm, and in connection with
the Company's September 18, 1995 offering of preferred stock and warrants, the
outstanding Class B shares may not be sold or otherwise disposed before March
17, 1997 without the prior consent of the Company's investment banking firm. As
of the date of this Prospectus, the Company's stockholders own an aggregate of
1,058,860 Preferred Shares and 4,556,091 Class A Shares. Of these shares,
3,336,091 Common A Shares and 890,000 Series A Preferred Shares are freely
saleable in the public market. A sale of shares by current stockholders, whether
pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise, may have a depressing effect upon the market
price of the Company's securities in any market that continues to exist. To the
extent that such shares enter the market, there may be a negative effect on the
market price of the Company's securities and on the ability of the Company to
obtain additional equity financing. See "Principal and Selling Securityholders,"
"Description of Securities," "Certain Transactions" and "Concurrent Sales."
    

         Representative's Warrants. In connection with the Initial Public
Offering, the Company sold to the Representative's designees, for nominal
consideration, Representative's Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 45,000
Class A Shares, 40,000 Class WA Warrants and 22,500 Class WB Warrants. In
October 1994 Representative's Warrants to purchase 30,015 Class A Shares, 40,000
Class WA Warrants and 22,500 Class WB Warrants were repurchased by the Company.
The Representative's Warrants are exercisable until June 22, 1999, at an
exercise price equal to $1.50 per Class A Share, subject to certain adjustments.
In connection with the Preferred Stock Offering, the Company sold to VTR
Capital, Inc. a Warrant to purchase 40,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
and 20,000 Class WC Warrants for an aggregate price of $20.00, (the "VTR
Warrants"). The holders of outstanding Representative's Warrants and VTR
Warrants have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of the
Company's securities, if any, without assuming the risk of ownership, with a
resulting dilution in the interest of other shareholders. The Company may find
it more difficult to raise additional equity capital if it should be needed for
the business of the Company while the Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants
are outstanding. At any time when the holders thereof might be expected to
exercise such Warrants, the Company would probably be able to obtain additional
capital on terms more favorable than those provided by the Representative's
Warrants and VTR Warrants. The holders of the Representative's Warrants and VTR
Warrants have the right to require registration under the Securities Act of the
securities issuable upon exercise of such Warrants and have certain "piggy-back"

registration rights. The cost to the Company of effecting a demand registration
may be substantial. See "Description of Securities" and for a description of the
termination agreement with the Representative.

         Certain Provisions of Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws;
Potential Anti-Takeover Effect. The Company's Board of Directors may designate
the terms of and issue up to 2,500,000 shares of Preferred Stock without further
action by the stockholders, of which 1,140,000 are issued and outstanding as of
the date of this filing. Voting rights that may be granted in the future to
holders of Preferred Stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of
Class A Shares. The Company's By-Laws contain provisions which may discourage
certain transactions which involve an actual or threatened change in control of
the Company. The By-Laws provide that certain vacancies on the Board of
Directors shall be filled by a majority of the remaining directors then in

                                       18

office, limit the ability to call a special meeting of shareholders, and require
that no proposal by a shareholder be presented for vote at a special or annual
meeting of shareholders unless the shareholder provides the Board of Directors
or the secretary of the Company with written notice of intention to present a
proposal for action at the meeting in accordance with the By-Laws. See
"Description of Securities."

         As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director of the Company will not be
personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for
breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director, except under certain
circumstances including breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company
or its stockholders or any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit. See "Management - Indemnification of Directors and
Officers."

         The Company has expressly not opted out of, and is therefore subject
to, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law regulating "business
combinations" between Delaware corporations and "interested stockholders." Under
this provision, a corporation subject to Section 203 may not engage in any
business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years
from the date such person became an interested stockholder unless certain
conditions are satisfied. This provision may also have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control of the Company. See "Description of Securities."

         Possible Redemption of the Class WA Class WB and Class WC Warrants.
Commencing at any time after June 22, 1995, in the event the closing bid price
per share of the Class A Shares as quoted in the over-the-counter market (as
reported by Nasdaq) or on an exchange on which the Company's securities are then
listed has equaled or exceeded 120% or more of the then effective exercise price
of the Class WA and Class WB Warrants, respectively, for 20 consecutive trading
days, the Warrants may be redeemed by the Company at a redemption price of $.01
per warrant prior to exercise or expiration upon 30 days prior written notice
thereof. Commencing at any time after September 17, 2000, in the event the
closing bid price per share of the Preferred Stock as quoted in the

over-the-counter market (as reported by Nasdaq) or on an exchange on which the
Company's securities are then listed has equaled or exceeded 110% or more of the
then effective exercise price of the Class WC Warrants for 20 consecutive
trading days, the Warrants may be redeemed by the Company at a redemption price
of $.01 per WC warrant prior to exercise or expiration upon 30 days prior
written notice thereof. Although holders of the Warrants will have the right to
exercise their Warrants through the date of redemption, they may be unable to do
so because they lack sufficient funds at the time of redemption, or they may
simply not wish to invest any more money in the Company's Class A Shares, Series
A Preferred Shares, Class WB Warrants, or Class WC Warrants at that time. Should
holders of the Warrants fail to exercise such Warrants or to sell such Warrants
on or prior to the redemption date, such Warrants will have no value beyond
their redemption value. As noted above, the Company may not redeem the Warrants
unless the Company has available a current prospectus with respect to the
Warrants. See "Description of Securities - Redeemable Warrants."

         Delinquent Payment of Payroll Taxes. In March 1996, the Company
executed an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") for the
payment of outstanding payroll tax liabilities totaling approximately $100,000.
The agreement requires that the Company pay approximately $9,000 per month for
approximately 14 months in order to satisfy its federal payroll tax
responsibilities. As of the date of this filing, the Company has complied with
its agreement with the Service.

                                PUBLIC OFFERINGS

         The Company completed its Initial Public Offering on June 30, 1994, at
which time the Company issued 517,500 Class A Shares at $5.00 per share, 460,000
Class WA Warrants at $0.10 per Warrant, and 258,750 Class WB Warrants at $0.10
per Warrant (including 67,500 Class A Shares, 60,000 Class WA Warrants and
33,570 Class WB Warrants upon exercise of the Representative's Over-Allotment
Option). The Class A Shares, Class WA Warrants and Class WB Warrants were
purchasable and transferable separately upon issuance. Such securities were sold
by the Company pursuant to a "firm commitment" underwritten public offering
(previously defined as the "Initial Public Offering"). The Company received
approximately $1,600,000 in net proceeds (including the proceeds from the
exercise of the Over-Allotment Option) after payment of certain offering
expenses, commissions and non-accountable expenses including approximately
$100,000 in expenses paid by the Company prior to the receipt of the net
proceeds. The Initial Public Offering was underwritten by certain underwriters,
including J. Gregory & Company, Inc., which acted as the Representative of the
Underwriters. In accordance with the Underwriting Agreement between the Company
and the Representative, the Company issued to the Representative's designees
Representative's Warrants to purchase up to 45,000 Class A Shares, 40,000 Class
WA Warrants and 22,500 Class WB Warrants, exercisable through June 22, 1999. In
October 1994 the Company entered into a termination agreement with the
Representative and with Vincent Mongno for the repurchase of Representative's
Warrants to purchase 30,015 Class A Shares, 40,000 Class WA Warrants and 22,500
Class WB Warrants and the mutual termination of certain rights and obligations.
See "Risk Factors," "Description of Securities" and "Management's Discussion and

Analysis."

         In September 1995, the Company's registration statement (the "Preferred
Stock Registration Statement") with respect to 460,000 shares of Series A, 10%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock"), and 230,000
Redeemable Class WC Warrants ("WC Warrants") to purchase Preferred Stock at the
exercise price of $5.50 per share was completed and was declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each share of Preferred Stock is
convertible commencing one year from the date of issue, subject to adjustment,
into three shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company. On May 5, 1995, the
former President was reappointed as President, Chief Executive Officer and
Treasurer of the Company in connection with this offering. In September 1995,
upon completion of the Preferred Offering, the President resigned. The net
proceeds from this offering were approximately $1,633,000, including
over-allotments.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

No new securities are being offered by the Company pursuant to this filing. The
Company will not realize any proceeds pursuant to this filing as a result of the
sale of securities by the Selling Securityholders.

                                 DIVIDEND POLICY

   
         The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any cash
dividends on its Class A Shares or Class B Shares in the foreseeable future, but
instead intends to retain all working capital and earnings, if any, for use in
the Company's business operations, and in the expansion of its business. The
Company's Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to a 10% cumulative dividend,
payable semi-annually in the months of March and September. This dividend is
payable either in cash or Class A Common shares at the option of the Company. In
March 1996, and in satisfaction of the first semi-annual dividend obligation
with respect to the Preferred Stock, the Company issued 55,247 Common A shares
to the Preferred Stock holders of record as of February 23, 1996. As of the date
of this filing, the Company has not declared or established a record date for a
dividend for its Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock for
September 1996, or March 1997. See "Description of Securities."

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

         General

   
                  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with
         (a) the information contained in the financial statements of the
         Company (the "Financial Statements") and the Notes (the "Notes")
         thereto appearing elsewhere herein, and b) the Company's Form 10-KSB
         and Form 10-QSB filed for the periods ended June 30,1996, and December
         31, 1996. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity
         with generally accepted accounting principles, but have not been

         audited, except that financial balances at June 30, 1996 disclosed
         herein are based on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal
         year ended June 30, 1996, which have been audited by the Company's
         independent auditors ("Auditors".) The auditors have issued a modified
         opinion on the Company's financial statements at June 30, 1996 (See
         Risk Factors - Modified Auditor's Report.) Due to $5,283,773 net losses
         during the year ended June 30, 1996, and negative net worth at that
         date, substantial doubt existed as to the Company's ability to continue
         as a going concern. During the period subsequent to June 30, 1996,
         certain events led to improvement of the Company's financial position.
    

         Results of Operations

   
         Period Ended December 31, 1996 as Compared to Period Ended December 31,
         1995
    

   
                  As disclosed in the "Description of Business", during the year
         ended June 30, 1996, the Company decided to discontinue its catalog
         operations. The measurement date of such discontinuance is March 31,
         1996. Prior period financial statements were reclassified to disclose
         the results of catalog operations as if they were discontinued at the
         beginning of the period ending December 31, 1995. For this purpose,
         loss from operations of discontinued operations totaling approximately
         $560,000 was recorded for the six months ended December 31, 1995. Also,
         the Company reported a loss from operations of discontinued operations
         totaling approximately $113,000 and $424,000 for the three and nine
         months ended March 31, 1996 respectively, and provision for the
         disposal of discontinued operations totaling $750,000 and $1,100,000
         for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1996 respectively.
    

   
                  The Company's net sales from continuing operations for the six
         months ended December 31, 1996, decreased by approximately $1,171,000
         or 36% to $2,053,000 from $3,224,000 for the six months ended December
         31, 1995, restated to reflect the discontinuation of the Company's
         catalog operation.
    

   
                  Net sales for the A.P.F. Master Framemakers division for the
         six months ended December 31, 1996 increased by $354,000 or 22% to
         $1,988,000 from $1,634,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995.
         This increase is largely due to new business conducted during the six
         months ended December 31, 1996 with The Limited, Inc. Net sales for the
         Italia Collection subsidiary for the six months ended December 31, 1996
         decreased $1,525,000 or 96% to $65,000 from $1,590,000 for the six
         months ended December 31, 1995. Because of these declining revenues and
         high operating costs, on
    


                                       24

<PAGE>

   
         December 16, 1996, the Board of Directors decided to discontinue and
         dissolve Italia. (See "The Company - Italia Collection.")
    

   
                  The Company's cost of goods sold from continuing operations as
         a percentage of net sales increased to 55% for the six months ended
         December 31, 1996, from 51% for the six months ended December 31, 1995.
         Revenues of Italia have historically been generated at a higher gross
         margin than those of the A.P.F. Master Framemakers Division. Since
         Italia revenues have been significantly reduced during the current
         period versus the prior period, the consolidated gross margins for the
         current period have declined versus the prior period. The Company used
         during the six months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 the gross profit
         method to value inventory. The Company plans to begin the
         implementation of a perpetual inventory system. The Company believes
         that such a system will enable it to determine product costing and
         margins more precisely. Although the Company expects this system to be
         fully operational by year-end June 30, 1997, no assurances can be given
         that this will occur.
    

   
                  The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses as
         a percentage of net sales totaled 42% for the six months ended December
         31, 1996, versus 48% for the six months ended December 31, 1995.. The
         Company has taken certain measures to reduce expenses, leading to this
         improved ratio of expenses-to-sales. For example, reductions of
         administrative personnel have led to reduced salaries, benefits, and
         travel expenses. Also discretionary spending for such items as
         stationery and supplies, advertising, and consulting fees has been
         curtailed. Finally, due to the overall reduction of revenues, sales
         commission expenses are reduced in the current period versus the prior
         period. Interest expense as a percentage of sales remained at
         approximately 7% for the six months ended December 31, 1996, and the
         six months ended December 31, 1995. In absolute dollars however,
         interest expense is $78,000 lower in the six months ended December 31,
         1996 versus the prior period because of reduced balances in
         interest-bearing debt. Interest as a percent of sales is largely
         unchanged because of the reduced sales of the current period versus the
         prior period.
    

   
         For the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Company realized a net
         loss of approximately $115,000 ($0.03 per share), versus a net loss
         from continuing operations of $211,000 ($0.06 per share), and a loss
         from discontinued operations of $560,000 ($0.18 per share) for the six

         months ended December 31, 1995.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

   
                  At December 31, 1996, there were no cash balances on the
         Company's balance sheet as compared to approximately $4,000 at June 30,
         1995. Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended
         December 31, 1996 totaled approximately $990,000 compared with net cash
         used in operating activities of approximately $1,044,000 during the six
         months ended December 31, 1995. During the six months ended December
         31, 1996, cash used from operations is largely due to the current
         period's net loss of approximately $115,000, increased by non-cash
         charges for depreciation, amortization, and stock issuances of
         approximately $347,000, and impacted by decreases in trade receivables
         of approximately $228,000, increases in inventories of approximately
         $616,000, increases in prepaid expenses of approximately $123,000,
         decreases in other assets of approximately $165,000, and decreases in
         accounts payables and accrued expenses of approximately $794,000.
    

   
                  Net cash used in investing activities during the six months
         ended December 31, 1996 totaled approximately $1,132,000 versus
         approximately $385,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995.
         During the current period, the Company invested $826,000 of cash to
         acquire 54,934 shares of Series C non-voting convertible preferred
         stock of Decor Group, Inc. (See "Acquisitions and Strategic
         Alliances.") During the same current period, an additional amount of
         approximately $306,000 was used to acquire equipment, versus
         approximately $385,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995.
    

   
                  Net cash provided by financing activities totaled
         approximately $2,118,000 during the six months ended December 31, 1996
         versus approximately $1,471,000 during the six months ended December
         31, 1995. During the current period, the funding was the result of the
         exercise by investors of 704,412 Class WA Warrants to acquire 704,412
         shares of Class A Common shares and 704,412 Class WB Warrants for an
         exercise price of $1.50, and the exercise by investors of 118,012 Class
         WB Warrants to acquire 118,012 shares of Class A Common shares for an
         exercise price of $2.00, and the exercise of an option to acquire
         350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Shares at a net exercise price of
         $2.25. During the six months ended December 31, 1995, the funding was
         the result of the sale by the Company of 460,000 shares of Series A
         Preferred Stock registered by the Company in September 1995, offset by
         debt repayments totaling approximately $193,000.
    


   
                  As of December 31, 1996, the Company's financial position
         reflected a working capital deficit of approximately $1,091,000, versus
         a working capital deficit of approximately $2,512,000 at June 30, 1996.
         Of this working capital deficit at December 31, 1996, $826,000 is
         directly attributable to the Company's direct investment in Decor
         Group, Inc. (See above.) As of December 31, 1996 versus June 30, 1996,
         trade receivables decreased approximately $228,000, inventories
         increased approximately $616,000, and accounts payable and accrued
         expenses decreased approximately $794,000, due largely to the proceeds
         received from the equity transactions described in the preceding
         paragraph.

                  The Company's management is currently seeking to increase
         revenues as part of its efforts to improve the Company's financial
         position. Two specific initiatives are currently in progress. The
         Company is seeking alternative means by which products marketed by
         Italia will be sourced and distributed in the future. Also, the Company
         has entered into an exclusive three year contract to provide certain
         services to a major "direct-in-home" marketer of computer-enhanced
         enlargements of photographs. Although the Company believes that these
         initiatives will provide significant revenue growth, no assurances can
         be given that this outcome will occur.

         Year Ended June 30, 1996 as Compared to Year Ended June 30, 1995

         As disclosed in the "Description of Business", during the year ended
         June 30, 1996, the Company decided to discontinue its catalog
         operations. Prior year financial statements were reclassified to
         disclose the results of catalog operations as if they were discontinued
         at the beginning of the year ending June 30, 1996.

                  The Company's net sales from continuing operations for the
         fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, increased by $224,000 or 4.4% to
         $5,379,000 from $5,155,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.

                  Net sales for the A.P.F. Master Framemakers division for the
         fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $154,000 or 4.4% to
         3,369,000 from $3,523,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. The
         average selling price per order for the A.P.F. Master Framemakers
         division remained relatively unchanged for the fiscal years ended June
         30, 1996 and 1995.

                  With the acquisition by the Company of Italia Collections Inc.
         ("Italia") in October 1994 (See "Description of Business"), the Company
         began to conduct its wholesale business through Italia. During the
         transition from the Company's prior wholesale business to Italia, the
         Company generated revenues of $528,000 from this wholesale business

         during the year ended June 30, 1995. Italia revenues for this same
         period totaled $1,104,000. Thus, for the year ended June 30, 1995, the
         Company's wholesale based revenues totaled $1,632,000. Net sales for
         Italia for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 totaled $2,010,000,
         which is an increase of $378,000 or 23.2% over total wholesale business
         for the prior year. During the year ended June 30, 1996, as disclosed
         in the "Description of Business", Italia has been undergoing disruption
         due to efforts to relocate Italia operations to a suitable location.
         Because of this disruption, the revenues for the year ended June 30,
         1996 have been negatively affected. Also, additional expenses pursuant
         to relocation efforts totaling some $235,000 have been incurred.

                  The Company's cost of goods sold from continuing operations as
         a percentage of net sales increased to 66.1% for the fiscal year ended
         June 30, 1996, from 59.7% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. This
         increase is due to larger fourth quarter book-to-physical adjustments
         as compared to the prior year recorded by the Company during the year
         ended June 30, 1996. Gross margins for the year ended June 30, 1996 are
         largely consistent with those of the prior year.

                                      27

                  Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing
         operations increased $1,791,000 or approximately 98% over the
         comparable amount in the prior year. Such increase included additional
         costs relating to the relocation of Italia in the amount of
         approximately $763,000, additional reserves for certain assets of
         $310,000, additional facilities charges of approximately $120,000, with
         the balance relating to various other costs associated with the
         implementation of the Company's strategic plan.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

                  Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1996 increased
         approximately $302,000 to $538,000 versus the year ended June 30, 1995.
         Italia's revenues are financed with a New York based secured lender
         pursuant to an asset-related formula. (See Liquidity and Capital
         Resources.) Italia's revenues have increased $906,000 during the year
         ended June 30, 1996 versus the June 30, 1995. This is the basis for
         approximately $122,000 of the current year increase. The balance
         relates to financing costs related to certain third-party loans
         obtained during the prior year.

                  Because of the Company's decision to discontinue its catalog
         operations, it incurred charges during the year ended June 30, 1996 for
         such discontinuation totaling $2,935,633. These charges relate
         primarily to a loss for the current year's operations of approximately
         $789,000, inventory reserves of approximately $954,000, reserves for
         other assets of approximately $354,000, charges for the settlement of
         related party lawsuits of approximately $519,000, with the balance
         primarily relating to estimated charges for operating losses.


                  The Company believes that the charges recorded during the year
         ended June 30, 1996 are sufficient. The Company will wind down its
         catalog business by March 31, 1997, and may possibly mail one final
         clearance catalog. The Company's management believes that no additional
         charges will be necessary from such efforts.

   
                  Management believes that cash flow from operations as they
         currently exist are not sufficient to support such operations.
         Accordingly, Company management is now identifying and implementing
         what it believes to be the corrective changes deemed necessary.
         Specific action taken as of the date of this filing include the
         following: a) The Company is seeking either the acquisition of or
         entering into strategic alliances with unrelated companies in the
         decorative accessories industry. As part of this strategy, a public
         offering of certain securities of Decor Group, Inc. ("Decor"), an
         affiliate of the Company, has been declared effective by the Securities
         and Exchange Commission on November 12, 1996 (the "Effective Date".) On
         November 19, 1996, Decor acquired substantially all of the operating
         assets and assumed certain liabilities of Artisan House, Inc., a
         California based manufacturer and distributor of metal wall, table, and
         freestanding sculptures. (See "Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances"),
         b) Due to declining revenues and high operating costs, the Company has
         discontinued its catalog business effective March 31, 1996 (See
         "Discontinuation of Certain Operations."), c) Beginning with the
         quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company has begun to reduce operating
         expenses through a combination of staff reductions and expense
         controls, d) Because of declining revenues and increased operating
         costs, the Company discontinued and dissolved its Italia Collections
         Inc. subsidiary during December 1996.(See "The Company - Italia
         Collection"), and e) The
    

                                       28

         Company is seeking additional sources or revenues. For this purpose, on
         October 13, 1996, the Company announced that it has entered into an
         exclusive three year agreement with a major "direct-in-home" marketer
         of customized computer-enhanced photograph enlargements. No assurances
         can be given that this, or any subsequent initiative by the Company
         will produce the desired positive cash flow from operations.
    

                  Cash balances of approximately $4,000 were recorded as of June
         30, 1996, as compared to approximately $2,000 at June 30, 1995,
         representing an increase of approximately $2,000. Net cash used in
         operating activities was $1,144,000 at June 30, 1996, as compared to
         net cash used in operating activities of approximately $2,287,000 at
         June 30, 1995. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities
         was primarily due to the net loss of $5,284,000 offset by a non-cash
         provision for discontinued operation totaling $2,236,000, and also

         offset by the following changes from continuing operations: non-cash
         charges for depreciation of $680,000, and for stock issuances of
         $141,000, increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of
         $1,113,000, inventories of $346,000, and a decrease in accounts
         receivable of $179,000. The decrease in accounts receivable was
         primarily due to the Company's adherence to established credit policies
         while at the same time successfully pursuing the collection of past due
         balances. Although total inventories decreased during the current
         period, inventories from continuing operations increased due largely to
         support the Italia business. The increase in accounts payable and
         accrued expenses was due largely to increased operating expenses
         incurred during the current year. (See "Results of Operations".)

                  Net cash used in investing activities was $543,000 for the
         year ended June 30, 1996, versus $591,000 for the year ended June 30,
         1995.

                  Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,689,000 for
         the year ended June 30, 1996, compared to $1,839,000 for the year ended
         June 30, 1995. The primary source of the current year's financing was
         the Company's Preferred Stock Offering in September 1995 generating
         proceeds of $1,633,000. During fiscal 1995, the Company sold 3,000,000
         Class WA Warrants to raise net proceeds of approximately $372,000 in
         additional working capital in part to support the acquired operations,
         sale of 500,000 registered Class A Common shares to raise net proceeds
         of approximately $438,000, and the sale of 235,000 Class A Common
         shares pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933
         ("Regulation S") to raise net proceeds of approximately $283,000.

                  As of June 30, 1996, working capital was ($2,512,000), as
         compared to ($15,000) as of June 30, 1995. As of June 30, 1996, trade
         accounts receivable decreased $179,000 and inventories decreased
         $346,000 versus the prior period. Notes payable and current maturities
         of long-term debt reduced $369,000 during this same period. The changes
         from these specific accounts produce a reduction to working capital of
         $536,000. Additionally, in connection with plans to discontinue its
         catalog operations, the Company recorded reserves totaling
         approximately $2,200,000, which is the substantial cause of the
         decrease of working capital during the year ended June 30, 1996. The
         Company's Management believes that this working capital reduction will
         be isolated to the year ended June 30, 1996, and that positive working
         capital will be generated during subsequent periods. As disclosed at
         the beginning of "Results of Operations" the negative working capital
         changes during the year ended June

                                       29

         30, 1996 are consistent with the Company's intentions to reposition
         itself for growth and profitability in subsequent periods. No
         assurances can be given, however, that the Company's expectations of
         improved results in subsequent periods will occur.


   
         In July 1994, The Company replaced its existing financing agreement
         with a line of credit of up to $950,000 with a New York Bank following
         the Company's Initial Public Offering in June 1994. Such borrowings are
         based on trade receivables and inventory. The borrowings under such
         line of credit are secured by a lien on all personal property and
         fixtures of the Company and personally guaranteed by the President and
         Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In March 1996, the Company
         agreed with the bank to reduce the line of credit by increasing the
         amount of payments starting with $10,000 per month. Currently the
         required payment amount is $30,000 per month. As of March 31, 1997, the
         line of credit has been reduced to $715,000. This line of credit bears
         interest at a rate of prime plus 1% (9.25% as of the date of this
         filing.) The Company is also seeking alternative sources of financing
         to ultimately replace the current line of credit, but there can be no
         assurance it will be able to do so.
    

   
                  In connection with the Company's plan to restructure its
         wholesale business, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary,
         Italia Collection, Inc. ("Italia"), acquired the businesses of two
         privately held Florida-based companies, Murano Crystal Corp. ("Murano")
         and Ceramic Productions, Corp. ("CPC"), which manufacture and market
         upscale decorative ceramic accessories to the home furnishings industry
         through a showroom in High Point, North Carolina and a network of sales
         representatives. Closing on such acquisitions occurred on October 21,
         1994. These acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method
         of accounting. In connection therewith, the Company agreed to pay the
         seller on the basis of a formula purchase price computed as a factor of
         future earnings from continuing operations, subject to certain
         adjustments and offsets in cash and/or Class A Shares. The Company also
         entered into employment arrangements with the seller and other parties
         pursuant to the acquisition. Soon thereafter, the Company decided that
         the services provided thereby did not meet Management's expectations.
         Accordingly, in July 1995, the employment agreement for the President
         of Italia, as well as all other agreements were terminated by the
         Company. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not made any
         payments pursuant to such termination of agreements. Further, the
         Company does not anticipate that any payments will be necessary in the
         future for this purpose. As of the date of this filing, based on the
         results of operations of these acquisitions, management believes that
         no liabilities are due to the seller, nor have any liabilities for such
         payment been recorded on the Company's financial statements. The
         parties are currently in dispute regarding the nature and amount, if
         any, of the consideration necessary. The parties are discussing a
         resolution to this matter and in the opinion of management, there will
         not be any material adjustment to the Company's financial position or
         results of operations as a result of the outcome of such discussions.
         Upon resolution of these discussions, appropriate payments, if any,
         will be made and recorded on the Company's books. As reported in the
         "Business" section to this filing, because of declining revenues and
         high operating costs, on December 16, 1996, the Board of Directors
         decided to discontinue and dissolve Italia.

    

                  On February 15, 1995, Italia Collection entered into a
         Financing Agreement with a New York based secured lender whereby Italia
         Collection may borrow pursuant to an asset-related

                                       30

         formula. The agreement remains in effect as of the date of this filing,
         and may be terminated by either party upon notice to the other and
         payment of the commitment fee for the unexpired term of this agreement.
         Although the Company is currently pursuing alternative financing
         agreements, as of the date of this filing, no such arrangements have
         been finalized. According to the current agreement, the lender, upon
         confirmation of shipments, will advance Italia Collection 70% of the
         receivable. Upon collection of the receivable, the lender remits the
         balance of 30%. Interest is calculated on the daily cash balance at the
         rate of prime plus 9% per annum (17.25% as of the date of this filing)
         or a minimum of 18% per annum against a minimum monthly defined
         compensation of $3,000. As of March 31, 1997, the amount due to the
         lender was approximately $506,000. In addition, the secured lender
         received personal guarantees from Max Munn, President and Chief
         Executive Officer of the Company, and his spouse. During February 1996,
         the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer arranged for
         $160,000 additional financing from this lender at the rates in effect
         for existing loans. The President and Chief Executive Officer, and his
         spouse, have provided personal guarantees for this additional funding,
         in addition to a security interest in certain real estate and Company
         stock owned by his spouse. Of these proceeds, approximately $121,000
         was used to pay outstanding tax liabilities. The balance of the
         proceeds was loaned by the Company to the President and Chief Executive
         Officer. A $38,000 demand loan dated February 8, 1996, bearing an
         annual rate of interest of 18% was executed by the President and Chief
         Executive Officer, and countersigned by the Chief Financial Officer. On
         May 13, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors affirmed by majority
         vote the loan by the Company to its President and Chief Executive
         Officer. The principal balance of the loan will be partially offset by
         reimbursed business expenses generated by the President and Chief
         Executive Officer. The remaining loan balance will be repaid by the
         President and Chief Executive Officer to the Company, with interest as
         provided above, during the twelve months ended October 1997.
    

   
                  In March 1996, the Company executed an agreement with the
         Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") for the payment of outstanding
         payroll tax liabilities totaling approximately $100,000. The agreement
         required the Company to pay approximately $9,000 per month until the
         liability is fully paid down. The final payment in the amount of
         $11,000 was made on February 28, 1997.
    


   
                  On November 23, 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $225,000
         from Ekistics Corp., a Bahamian corporation, pursuant to a promissory
         note due March 30, 1995, together with interest at the rate of 14% per
         annum and a 5% financing charge. In April 1995, the Company paid
         $25,000, plus interest on account of the principal amount of said Note
         and entered into a revised note for the $200,000 balance with such
         revised note providing for payment of principal on October 20, 1995,
         having an interest rate of 14% per annum and being convertible into
         80,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 40,000 Class WC Warrants.
         On December 15, 1995, this conversion took place. The 80,000 Series A
         Preferred Shares and 40,000 WC Warrants, together with 80,000 Class A
         Common Shares issued to Ekistics in April 1995, were registered in a
         Registration Statement declared effective September 18, 1995. Among
         others, the purpose of this registration statement is to update the
         Company's registration of the 80,000 Class A Common Shares currently
         held by Ekistics.

                  In August 1995, the Company agreed to issue, at a future date,
         60,000 Class A Common shares in settlement of all current and future
         liabilities under a two-year Marketing and Organizational Agreement
         (the "Marketing Agreement") with a consulting firm dated January 4,
         1994. The Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of such
         shares in November 1995. In conjunction with the issuance of these
         shares, approximately $105,000 of charges against earnings were
         recorded during the year ended June 30, 1996. On January 14, 1997,
         these shares were registered by the Company with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission on Form S-8.
    

                  In June and July 1995, the Company delivered to unaffiliated
         parties promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $300,000 with
         interest at the rate of 10% per annum (the "10% Notes") and promissory
         notes in the principal amount of $100,000 with interest at the rate of
         6% per annum (the "6% Notes".) The 10% Notes and 6% Notes were each
         payable in June and July 1996 or the closing of the sale by the Company
         of an issue of Preferred Stock, whichever is earlier. The 6% Notes were
         convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder, into a
         maximum of 2,000,000 WC Warrants entitling the holders for a period of
         five years to purchase one share of Preferred Stock per Class WC
         Warrant at a price of $5.50 per share. These Warrants are redeemable by
         the Company. The Notes were secured by a lien on the Company's assets.
         In September 1995 the Company repaid all 10% Notes in full, plus all
         accrued interest for both the 10% Notes and 6% Notes. All holders of 6%
         Notes have converted in full, into a total of 2,000,000 Class WC
         Warrants, which were registered in a Registration Statement declared
         effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18,

         1995.

   
                  In September 1995, the Company issued 460,000 shares of Series
         A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") and
         230,000 Redeemable Class WC Warrants ("Warrants") to purchase Preferred
         Stock at the exercise price of $5.50 per share. The net proceeds from
         this Offering were approximately $1,633,000, including over-allotments.
         Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible, commencing one year from
         the date of issue, subject to adjustment, into three shares of Class A
         Common Stock of the Company. As of the date of this filing, independent
         holders of 81,140 shares of Preferred Stock have converted such shares
         into 243,420 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock.
    

   
                  In May 1995, the Company filed a registration statement with
         the Securities and Exchange Commission which, among other things,
         lowered the exercise price of the Company's Class WA Warrant to $1.50
         per share. Also in May 1995, the Company arranged to place 180,000
         shares of the Company's Class A Shares which were previously sold
         pursuant to a "Regulation S" private placement into escrow. These
         shares were sold in January 1996 to unrelated parties pursuant to a
         restructuring of a note payable by the Company to the holder of these
         shares as discussed below. On July 16, 1996, the Company filed a
         Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to
         re-register the Class WB Warrants and underlying Common A Shares
         issuable if all outstanding Class WA Warrants were exercised. The
         Commission declared this Registration Statement effective on July 19,
         1996. Through the date of this filing, 704,412 of the Company's Class
         WA Warrants were exercised at $1.50 per warrant, generating proceeds to
         the Company totaling $1,056,618. Of these proceeds, $811,500 was used
         to purchase 54,100 shares of Decor Group, Inc.'s Series C Non-Voting,
         Convertible, Preferred Stock. 
    

                                       32

         The balance of the proceeds was retained by the Company for working
         capital needs, and for the provision of loans to Decor Group, Inc.

   
                  On October 16, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to
         restructure a promissory note dated May 1995, with the principal amount
         of $500,000 bearing interest at the rate of 18% per annum with the
         principal which was due and payable in full on September 30, 1995 and a
         $150,000 note dated May 12, 1995, bearing interest at the rate of 18%
         payable monthly with 135% of the principal which was also due and
         payable in full on September 30, 1995 with Infinity Investors, Ltd., a
         Nevis, BWI Corporation. ("Infinity") The $500,000 note arose from the
         restructuring of a sale of 270,000 shares of the Company's Class A
         Common Stock to Infinity for proceeds totaling $501,120 under

         Regulation S into a loan whereby 180,000 of the 270,000 Class A shares
         would be placed into escrow, and ultimately sold by Infinity in
         satisfaction of $180,000 of the note, with the balance of $220,000 to
         be paid by the Company in installment payments. As of October 16, 1995
         the parties agreed the Company owes Infinity, including interest and
         monthly extension fees of approximately $102,500 through December 15,
         1995, an aggregate amount of approximately $805,000. Pursuant to the
         new agreement, the Company paid $405,000 to Infinity upon acceptance of
         the agreement. The Company also delivered a Promissory Note in the
         principal amount of approximately $400,000, in extension and
         replacement of the remaining balance due and payable of $180,000 on or
         before December 15, 1995 and $220,000 on July 31, 1996. As noted above,
         the new agreement also stipulates that Infinity shall sell the 180,000
         shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, held in escrow by the
         Infinity, for $180,000 to an unaffiliated third party. The proceeds of
         such sale will be applied against the note during January 1996. In
         addition, during December 1995, the Company issued to the Infinity
         35,000 unregistered shares of Class A Common Stock. Such shares shall
         be afforded a piggyback registration right for all registration
         statements filed by the Company before July 31, 1996 and a one time
         demand registration right commencing after July 31, 1996. Approximately
         $25,000 was charged against earnings during the quarter ended December
         31, 1995 in conjunction with the issuance of these shares. The
         promissory note is also guaranteed by Max Munn, President and Chief
         Executive Officer of the Company. The note is collateralized by 600,000
         shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock owned by the Company's
         Italia Collections Inc. subsidiary. The Company has reached a general
         agreement with this lender to restructure the repayment schedule of
         approximately $245,000 of outstanding principal and interest payable.
    

                  In December 1995, in consideration for certain services
         rendered, 10,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock were
         issued to various individuals related to Richard Josephberg, an outside
         Director of the Company. Approximately $7,000 was charged against
         earnings during the quarter ended December 31, 1995 in conjunction with
         the issuance of these shares.

   
                  In January 1996, the Company's Board of Directors elected to
         lower the exercise price of the Company's Class WB Warrant to $2.00 per
         Class A Common share, subject to the filing and effectiveness of a
         Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
         Such Registration Statement was filed with the Commission on July 16,
         1996 and declared effective on July 19, 1996. This registration
         statement registered all Class WB Warrants issuable upon exercise of
         all outstanding Class WA Warrants, as well as Class A Common Stock
         issuable upon exercise of all potentially outstanding

                                       33

<PAGE>

         warrants. As of the date of this filing, 118,012 of the Company's Class

         WB Warrants were exercised generating proceeds of $236,024. These
         proceeds were retained by the Company to support working capital needs,
         and for the provision of loans to Decor Group, Inc. Further, in
         connection with Decor's public offering, the Company will recognize any
         gains in accordance with Securities and exchange Commission ("SEC")
         Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 51.
    

   
                  In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
         stock dividend equivalent to $0.25 per share to its Series A 10%
         Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stockholders of record as of the close
         of business on February 23, 1996 (the record date.) Payment was made on
         March 1, 1996 by the issuance of 0.10231 of a share of the Company's
         Class A Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held of
         record on the record date. Accordingly, 55,247 shares of the Company's
         Class A Common Stock was issued for this purpose. Retained earnings was
         charged $165,741 in March 1996 in conjunction with the issuance of
         these shares. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not yet
         declared a dividend to its Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible
         Preferred Stockholders for either September 1996, or March 1997.
    

                  In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved
         the issuance to Sol Munn of 150,000 shares of the Company's Class A
         Common Stock, in consideration for past consulting services provided.
         The Company is planning to register these securities with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission during the quarter ended March 31,
         1997. These shares, which bear a restrictive legend, were issued on
         April 12, 1996. In conjunction with the issuance of these shares,
         approximately $54,000 of charges were recorded against earnings during
         the year ended June 30, 1996. This filing is meant, among other things,
         for the purpose of registering these 150,000 Class A Common Shares with
         the Securities and Exchange Commission. The 150,000 Class A Common
         Shares are subject to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR Capital
         Corporation, the Company's investment bankers.

       

                  In April 1996, the Company's investment banking firm arranged
         for the private placement of 175,000 shares of the Company's Common A
         Stock and 50,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock.
         These shares, all of which bear a restrictive legend, were issued on
         April 24, 1996 to various independent investors (the "Investors")
         generating gross proceeds of $431,251. The Company realized net
         proceeds of $310,609 which was used to pay certain outstanding
         liabilities. Commencing thirty (30) days following the date of the
         close of the private placement, the Investors had the right to demand
         in writing (the "Demand Notice") that the Company file a registration
         statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
         "Commission") which shall cover the shares and allow the Investor to
         sell the shares to the public. Within fifteen (15) days following
         receipt of the Demand Notice, the Company is required to file such
         registration statement and use its best efforts to have such

         registration statement declared effective by the Commission and such
         state securities regulators as reasonably requested by the Investor.
         This filing is meant, among other things, to register these 175,000
         Class A Common Shares and 50,000 Series A Preferred Shares with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission.

                  On April 4, 1996 the Company's Board of Directors resolved to
         issue 250,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to Laurie
         Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. This
         issuance is in consideration for a down payment of $250, Ms. Munn's
         6.6% note to the Company providing for principal of $437,500 to be paid
         to the Company in five equal annual installments of $105,561.90, and
         Ms. Munn's guarantee and pledge of her assets for certain Company debt.
         The shares were issued to Ms. Munn on April 8, 1996. Ms. Munn has
         executed a Promissory Note and Security Agreement in conjunction with
         the issuance of these shares. The first annual installment is due to be
         paid on June 30, 1997. The Company obtained an appraisal at that time
         to determine the fair market value of this transaction.
    

   
                  Effective June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a consulting
         agreement with Morris Munn, father of the Company's President and Chief
         Executive Officer, in exchange for certain services. As part of this
         agreement, over the subsequent five-years, the Company will pay Mr.
         Munn $54,000 per annum in equal bi-weekly installments, and issue to
         Mr. Munn options to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's
         Series A Preferred stock. These options were fully exercised during
         July to September 1996, generating net proceeds to the Company totaling
         $787,500. Of these proceeds, approximately $127,000 was used pursuant
         to the Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann Stevens, a former
         Company executive (See "Legal Proceedings."), and $12,500 was used to
         purchase 834 shares of Decor Group, Inc.'s Series C Non-Voting,
         Convertible, Preferred Stock. The balance of proceeds was retained by
         the Company for working capital needs. In conjunction with the issuance
         of the options to Mr. Munn, the Company recorded charges against
         earnings totaling $87,500 at June 30, 1996.
    

                  Pursuant to the Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann
         Stevens (the "Settlement"), a former executive of the Company, the
         Company issued to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A
         Common Stock. This filing is meant, among other things, for the purpose
         of registering these 50,000 Class A Common Shares with the Securities
         and Exchange Commission. The 50,000 Class A Common Shares are subject
         to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR Capital Corporation, the Company's
         investment bankers. These shares are being registered as part of this
         registration statement. Also pursuant to the Settlement, the Company
         issued to Michael Levine as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") 1,250,000

         unregistered shares of the Company's Class B Common shares (the "Escrow
         Shares".) The Escrow Shares shall not be voted by the Escrow Agent,
         unless the Company defaults on its obligations under the agreement.
         Upon satisfaction of such obligations, the Escrow Shares shall be
         returned by the Escrow Agent to the Company. See "Legal Proceedings".
         In conjunction with the issuance of the Company's shares to Ms.
         Stevens, the Company recorded charges against earnings totaling $71,400
         at June 30, 1996.

                  During September 1996, pursuant to the Company's Director
         Stock Option Plan, the Company issued: 10,000 shares of its Class A
         Common shares to Roger Lourie, an outside director of the Company, and
         10,000 shares of its Class A Common shares to various individuals named
         by Richard Josephberg, also an outside director of the Company. These
         shares bear a restrictive legend.

<PAGE>

                  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company has no
         material commitments for capital expenditures. In order to fund growth
         over the long term, the Company anticipates possible future issuance of
         its securities resulting in further dilution to its securityholders.

                  While the Company operates pursuant to a policy that generally
         precludes acceptance of goods on a non-cash basis (sometimes known as
         barter transactions), the Company does from time to time execute upon
         goods provided by a customer in the event of non-payment by that
         customer.

         Impact of Inflation

                  The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material
         adverse effect on sales or income during the past several years.
         Increases in supplies and other operating costs could adversely affect
         the Company's operations. However, the Company believes it could
         increase prices to offset increases in cost of goods sold or other
         operating costs.

         Sales Variations

                  Although the Company's net sales are not subject to
         seasonality fluctuations experienced by certain retailers, the Company
         experiences some minor variations in the level of sales by quarter. The
         first quarter of the fiscal year (i.e., July 1 through September 30) is
         generally the Company's slowest sales period due to the fact that the
         summer period is typically the period when art galleries are at their
         slowest purchasing period. During this period, the Company's warehouse
         and factory closes for three to five days to take the annual physical
         inventory and to consolidate vacation periods for the Company's
         employees.

                                    BUSINESS

         General

   
         The Company's management believes that its highest priority is to set
         the stage for growth and profitability in current and subsequent
         periods. The Company is now identifying and finalizing new business
         ventures to achieve this goal. Two important activities currently in
         progress are summarized below:
    

o        The Company has made a major investment in Decor Group, Inc. ("Decor")
         as fully disclosed below.
       

   
o        On November 12, 1996, the Company announced that it has entered into an
         exclusive three year contract with Photo-to-Art, Inc., a major
         "direct-in-home" marketer of customized computer-enhanced photograph
         enlargements. This unique computerized process produces enlargements on
         canvas from ordinary photographs, yielding exceptional clarity and
         color at affordable prices. The agreement calls for the Company to
         finish, pack, frame and fulfill all of the client's products. For such
         services, the Company will be paid directly by Photo-to-Art, Inc., for
         each photo enlargement order processed by the Company, at a price to
         generate a gross margin consistent with the Company's historical
         levels.
    

Although the Company believes that these initiatives will lead to improved
financial results, no assurances can be provided that this will be the case.

         The Company was incorporated in October 1990 under the name A.P.F.
Holdings, Inc., a New York corporation ("A.P.F.") and merged with and into
Interiors, Inc., a Delaware corporation in March 1994. It has been engaged since
1990, through its A.P.F. Master Framemakers and Conservators Division ("A.P.F.
Master Framemakers"), in the manufacturing and marketing of museum quality
traditional and contemporary picture and mirror frames to museums, art
galleries, decorators, collectors and frame retailers. The Company is qualified
to do business in New York under the name A.P.F. Master Framemakers.

   
         The Company operates three showrooms, one at 75th Street in Manhattan,
one in "Old City" in Philadelphia and one at the Company's Mt. Vernon location.
The sales generated from the Manhattan showroom were approximately $2,186,000
and $1,541,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The Philadelphia showroom generated sales of approximately $96,000
and $193,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Company's showroom in Mt. Vernon, New York, conducts business with upscale
custom picture frame shops located throughout the country. Sales generated from

the Mt. Vernon showroom were approximately $817,000 and $1,276,000 for the six
months ending December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
    

         The Company believes that the decorative accessory supply industry will
consolidate as major retailers attempt to increase their "single-sourcing" in
order to reduce distribution and related expenses. The Company intends to
capitalize on the fragmented nature of the supply side of the home decorative
accessory industry and the consolidation of such industry through either
strategic

                                       37

<PAGE>

alliances or the acquisition of manufacturers and distributors of art-related
decorative accessories. Through such means, the Company intends to increase the
number and nature of products manufactured by the Company, thereby expanding its
presence in the decorative accessories market. Such products will be offered for
sale by the Company through its existing segments or other newly created units.
Management believes that increasing the number and kinds of products it
manufactures will enhance its ability to expand its wholesale operations as the
Company develops the ability to market "whole room" packages of accessories to
furniture and department stores.

A.P.F. Master Framemakers

         The Company's custom picture frames are marketed primarily to museums,
better art galleries, upscale frame shops and decorators, as well as collectors
of important works of art under the trade name "A.P.F. Master Framemakers and
Conservators" (previously defined and hereinafter referred to as "A.P.F. Master
Framemakers"). A.P.F. Master Framemakers' customers have included nationally
known museums, art institutes and galleries.

         There are approximately 15,000 picture frame retailers in the United
States alone. In management's opinion, approximately 3,000 of these serve
markets which the Company believes may be sufficiently affluent to support the
Company's product line. The A.P.F. Master Framemakers division now conducts
business with only approximately 300 of these retailers, or about 10% of this
market segment. The Company plans to expand its sales to the "high-end" of this
industry.

         Prices on individual custom-made frames range from $100 to well over
$10,000 with the majority under $5,000. The Company has crafted several single
frames in excess of $20,000 each during the last three years. The Company
utilizes varying discount and pricing structures for its different market
segments, with frame retailers receiving the largest price discount and art
collectors receiving minimal price reductions depending on the level of
aggregate annual purchases and the degree of customization requested.
Historically, The A.P.F. Master Framemakers division has not experienced
significant returns since its business is generated from orders for custom-made
products.

Italia Collection


         On October 21, 1994 (the "Closing Date") the Company, through its
newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Italia, acquired all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Murano Crystal Corp. ("Murano"), a Florida corporation
doing business under the name "Italia Collection," pursuant to the terms of a
certain stock purchase agreement dated October 21, 1994 (the "Murano Purchase
Agreement") between Italia and Murano and Stephen M. Tucker, the sole
stockholder and acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Ceramic Productions Corp., a Florida corporation ("Ceramic") pursuant to the
terms of a certain stock purchase agreement dated as of such date (the "Ceramic
Purchase Agreement") between Italia and Ceramic and Stephen M. Tucker and
Michael D. Tucker, the sole stockholders. The Company agreed to pay such
respective stockholders an "allocated portion" of three times the combined
"after-tax earnings" of Murano and Ceramic, net of intercompany transactions for
the third fiscal year following the Closing date. One-third of the purchase
price is payable on or before each of September 28, 1997, 1998, and 1999 and, at
the sole election of Italia, up to two-thirds of the purchase price is payable
by the delivery of Class A Common Stock of the Company but in no event shall
more than an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock be issuable in
payment of the purchase price under the Murano and Ceramic 

                                       38

<PAGE>

Purchase Agreements. Italia further agreed that in the event that it elects to
pay a portion of the purchase price in shares of Class A Common Stock, that it
will grant to the stockholders a one-time "piggy-back" registration right for
the inclusion for registration of such securities in a registration statement
filed under the Securities Act at such time as other securities are registered
following the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date provided that the respective
stockholder is at the time of such registration an employee of the Purchaser. As
of the date of this filing, no payments have been made to the seller for this
acquisition, nor have any liabilities for such payment been recorded on the
Company's financial statements. The parties are currently in dispute regarding
the nature and amount, if any, of the consideration necessary. Discussions are
currently in progress. In the opinion of management, there will not be any
material adjustment to the Company's financial position or results of operations
as a result of the outcome of such discussion. In connection with the Italia
transaction, the Company entered into an employment agreement with one of such
stockholders and a consulting agreement with a relative of such stockholders. In
July 1995, both the employment and consulting agreements were terminated by the
Company.

   
         During April 1996, the Company moved the operations of Italia to the
offices The Lance Corporation ("Lance"), a Massachusetts manufacturer and
distributor of various products to the giftware and collectibles market. Lance
was acquired by the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Lance
Acquisition Corporation in March 1996. Subsequent to the relocation of Italia to
Lance, disagreements arose between the Company and Lance, Lance's management
arranged for an orderly return of certain acquired assets, and the Company was
required to again relocate the operations of Italia to the Company's
headquarters. These relocations led to a significant disruption of Italia's

business operations. Italia's revenues declined substantially during this
period. Because of these declining revenues and high operating costs, on
December 16, 1996, the Board of Directors decided to discontinue and dissolve
Italia. On December 27, 1996, a Notice of Public Auction was distributed by the
Company, advising all interested parties that a public auction of all of the
assets of Italia consisting of molds, equipment, models, and inventory listed in
a Security Agreement entered into between Italia, as debtor, and United Credit
Corporation, as secured party, was to occur. The auction took place on January
10, 1997 and the Company was the successful bidder, thereby acquiring all of the
assets of Italia in consideration of a payment of $2,000 and the assumption by
the Company of the liabilities of Italia to United Credit Corporation, which as
of March 31, 1997 totaled approximately $506,000. Since the financial statements
of Italia are consolidated into those of the Company, Italia's liabilities have
already been reflected on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. As of
the date of this filing, the Company has not made a determination of the
realizability of assets acquired pursuant to this auction. Such evaluation will
take place during the subsequent period. Should any charge against earnings be
accordingly necessary, they will be recorded at the time such charge is
determined. See "Business."
    

Discontinuation of operations of Interiors Catalog

   
         On March 31, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors decided to
discontinue the Company's catalog operations because of declining revenues and
high operating costs. As a result, a charge against earnings of approximately
$2,100,000 was recorded at June 30, 1996. For the twelve months ended June 30,
1996, losses from continuing catalog operations totaled $789,332. The Company
plans to fully carry out the discontinuation of the catalog operation by June
30, 1997. The Company plans to wind down operations by filling existing orders
and possibly mailing one final 
    

                                       39

<PAGE>

   
catalog as a "close-out sale" to liquidate inventory. The financial statements
included with this filing have reclassified the results of operations for the
period ended December 31, 1995 as if the Company's catalog operations had been
discontinued at the beginning of such period.
    

Manufacturing

         The Company's manufacturing operations include specialized woodworking
systems using unique and customized proprietary equipment, tools, dies and molds
especially created for the Company. Production also includes frame finishing,
which involves gold leaf application, antiquing and painting.

         The Company maintains an inventory of metal and wood molding, composite
resins and other materials for use in its manufacturing processes. The Company's

mold and steel die inventory allows reproduction of frames from the 14th Century
(gothic) to the present day. These tools can be used to produce over 1,500
styles of picture and mirror frames. The Company has an extensive collection of
tools, molds and dies and has been unable to locate any other manufacturer of
picture frames which casts glass and urethane composite reproductions of
decorative frames to the extent and type that the Company does.

         No single outside manufacturer supplies five percent or more of the
Company's products, and the Company's management is not aware at this time of
any product or manufacturer that the Company cannot replace with a comparable
product from an alternative manufacturer.

Products

         Custom Frames. Each frame manufactured by the Company's A.P.F Master
Framemakers Division is individually made to the customer's size and finish
"coloration" specifications. In approximately 40% of the orders received by this
division, the customer also specifies a customized decorative element or carving
change to the basic design of the frame. The A.P.F. Master Framemakers Division
uses primarily fine domestic hardwoods and other traditional materials to hand
carve a "museum" quality frame. The Company's custom frames include styles as
follows: (a) Gothic through the Renaissance and various Italian styles; (b) a
product range of 15th through 17th Century Spanish designs; (c) a variety of
French "Empire" styles; (d) Dutch and Northern European designs, generally 17th
Century styles; (e) various English designs, including Queen Anne and Georgian;
(f) a broad range of American styles, including Colonial, Federal, Empire, Late
19th Century Hudson River School type frames, turn-of-the-century designs,
including designs by the artists Whistler, Prendergast, and others; and (g)
contemporary designs utilizing hardwoods and welded brass and aluminum. The
Company has selected the most popular segments of some of these periods, and has
incorporated them into brochures which picture the actual designs.

         Ceramic accessories and collectibles. The Company's Italia Collections
Inc. subsidiary ("Italia") manufactures and markets ceramic and hydrocal
sculptures, resin framed mirrors, and other decorative accessories for the home.

Organization

         Interiors, Inc. (the "Company" or "Interiors" known formally as A.P.F.
Holdings, Inc. or "A.P.F.") was incorporated pursuant to the laws of Delaware in
February 1994. A.P.F. 

                                       40

<PAGE>

was incorporated pursuant to the laws of New York in October 1990. A.P.F. was
incorporated in order to reincorporate in the State of Delaware. Effective March
1994, A.P.F. merged with and into the Company. In October 1994, the Company
purchased "Ceramic Production Corp." and "Murano Crystal" to form a wholly-owned
subsidiary, "Italia Collections, Inc."

   
         After giving effect to the discontinuance of the Catalog operations,

the Company has two operating divisions: 1) the Custom Framing Division which is
engaged in the manufacture of antique and contemporary picture frames for
museums, art galleries, designers, collectors and frame retailers; and 2) the
Wholesale Division, which manufactures and markets a line of high-end
traditional and contemporary mirrors through upscale retail furniture and
department stores. The wholesale division's wholly owned subsidiary manufactures
and markets ceramic vases and bowls, sculpture and lamps to upscale furniture
stores, furniture galleries, department stores, catalog and other decorative
accessory retailers. The majority of the Company's sales are domestic. Sales to
the largest customer totaled approximately $656,000, or 29% of total revenues
for the six months ended December 31, 1996.
    

       

Marketing

         The Company currently markets its custom picture frames to art
galleries, museums, custom frame retailers, art consultants, artists,
corporations and private collectors.

         Typically, sales for the picture frame division are generated through
the following activities:

o        Sales of "high-end" custom-made picture and mirror frames through the
         Company's three showrooms.

o        Sales to retail picture framers. These sales generally require that the
         Company supply samples or "corners," consisting of two short sides of
         the frame, to the retailers who use the "corners" to promote the sales
         of the Company's frames.

         The Company has established an unwritten arrangement with an art
gallery in Manhattan at 231 E. 60th Street to allow one of the Company's
employees to work from that location to assist the gallery in the sale of custom
picture frames to gallery clients and other customers. The Company operates from
such location without a lease or any cost or obligation of any kind and has done
so since the Company's inception.. Less than 4% of the Company's revenues are
generated through that location. While the Company believes that the
relationship is mutually beneficial to both the Company and such gallery, there
can be no assurance that the art gallery will allow the relationship to
continue.

         The Company markets its corners to the retail framer through direct
mail brochures and through advertising in trade publications. The Company
believes these corners aid the retail framer in the sale of custom framing to
the consumer. The retail framers' investment in new corners is made
significantly easier by both the Company's extended payment terms for corners
and its coupon

                                       41

<PAGE>


redemption program. The Company offers the retailer the opportunity to extend
payments for corners over several months. The coupon redemption program
encourages utilization of the corners by affording the retail framer credit on
his first order of that particular style of frame from the Company. The Company
intends to expand its distribution of such corners through the increase in its
advertising expenditures and by offering more liberal payment terms. To the
extent retail framers accept such extended payment terms, the Company expects
that its levels of accounts receivable will increase.

         The Company plans to add an additional showroom in a key market on the
West Coast of the United States during the next fiscal year. The Company has not
identified the exact location of such showroom facility and there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to select locations which are suitable
or be able to lease showroom space on acceptable terms or be able to attract and
hire qualified personnel for such facility. The possibility exists that the
Company will not adequately forecast the time, costs, management and capital
needed to expand its A.P.F. Master Framemakers Division.

Suppliers

         Substantially all of the picture and mirror frames sold by the Company
are manufactured by the Company in its facility in Mt. Vernon, New York. The
Company purchases wood, composite resins, gold leaf, plexiglas, matboards and
other materials from a wide variety of sources, and has at least two, and often
more, suppliers for each item used in its manufacturing process, and is not
dependent upon any one supplier. The Company currently purchases from a vendor
base of more than 300 suppliers. While there are many suppliers of most
materials, the Company has chosen to limit the majority of its purchases to the
one or two vendors with whom it has developed long-term relationships. The
Company generally does not need to enter into contracts with its suppliers as
most merchandise is readily available from multiple sources.

Competition

         The custom framing industry in the United States is highly fragmented
and consists primarily of small, local framing retailers. Only a few companies
are basic manufacturers of higher priced picture frames, which frames are
selected for valuable works of art owned by museums, galleries and collectors.
Custom framing of the type produced by the Company is not in competition with
local frame stores. Management of the Company believes that its A.P.F. Master
Framemakers division is one of the largest custom framers of its type in the
country. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's position in this
industry will continue.

         Management believes that the sale of decorative accessories in the
wholesale market is also highly fragmented, with thousands of small, specialized
manufacturers and distributors and management is not aware of a manufacturer of
upscale decorative accessories similar to those distributed by Italia.

         The Company believes that its competitive advantage lies in its
ownership of a substantial number of models, tools, dies and molds developed
from museum-quality antiques and its continuing ability to manufacture quality
reproductions of those antiques. Management also believes that the Company is
further protected by what the Company considers to be its excellent reputation

with its customer base and management's estimation that the cost today (i.e. -
the difficulty) of obtaining 

                                       42

<PAGE>

antiques to reproduce, as well as the costs to build tools, dies and molds, make
the entry of meaningful competition extremely difficult. Management believes
that it would be difficult to build such a collection of tools, dies and molds
because of the cost of acquiring antiques and the reluctance of museums and
collectors to loan or dispose of irreplaceable antiques and the difficulty in
establishing a trained work force of skilled crafts people.

         However, there can be no assurance that such assets will continue to
afford the Company any competitive advantage. See "Manufacturing."

Backlog and Backorders

   
         The Company has no backlog in its A.P.F. Master Framemakers division
since the nature of custom framemaking requires that frames be constructed only
after receipt of an order. Such custom orders are generally filled approximately
thirty days after receipt of the order. At December 31, 1996, open orders
totaled approximately $504,000.
    

   
         During the month of April 1996, the Company moved its Italia
Collections, Inc. ("Italia") operations from Florida to Massachusetts. Soon
thereafter, it became apparent that operational restrictions at this new
location would prevent Italia from providing a reliable and ongoing supply of
merchandise. As disclosed elsewhere in this filing, because of declining
revenues and high operating costs, on December 16, 1997, the Board of Directors
decided to discontinue and dissolve Italia. (See "The Company - Italia
Collection") Thus, as of December 31, 1997, Italia had no outstanding
backorders.
    

Patents and Trademarks

         The Company believes that its future success does not depend upon
patents. Instead, the Company depends, to a large extent, upon the technical
competence and creative skills of its personnel and on its unpatented
proprietary technology as well as its collection of tools, dies and molds. The
Company believes that it owns or has the right to use all proprietary technology
necessary to manufacture and market its existing and planned products. The
Company has no knowledge that it is infringing on any existing patent such that
it would be liable for material damages or be prevented from manufacturing or
marketing its products. In fact, most of the Company's technology is
process-related and may not be patentable. The decorative accessory
manufacturing industry is generally not technology driven, but is more design
and marketing driven; consequently there are few applicable patents in this
industry. In the event the Company's right to market any of its products were to

be successfully challenged, the Company may be required to discontinue certain
products and the Company's business and prospects may be adversely affected if
acceptable alternative products were not available.

         The Company owns the registered trademarks: "Interiors" and "A.P.F."
The name "Italia Collection" was registered by the former owner of this business
with the Secretary of State of Florida. Pursuant to the acquisition of this
business by the Company, it also owns this trademark.

         The Company does not own any other patents, copyrights, or other
intellectual property. The Company relies upon trade secrets, a substantial
quantity of tools, dies and molds and continuing design and marketing innovation
to maintain its competitive position.

                                       43

<PAGE>

Research and Development

   
         The Company continually seeks to develop additional design and related
molds for picture and mirror frames and capitalizes the cost thereof over a
five-year period. The Company estimates that it has expended approximately $ 0
and $$7,800 on such activities during the six months ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively. There can be no assurance that such product development
activity will yield profitable growth.
    

Government Regulation

         The Company must comply with federal, state and local laws affecting
companies in the manufacturing and catalog business. To date, such government
regulations have not had a material adverse effect on the Company. Prior to the
date of this filing, the New York Environment Conservation Department has
requested the Company to provide operation plans with regard to the management
of chemical and waste material currently stored on the Company's premises. The
Company has complied with this request. No other requirements or requests are
currently pending from any agency or representative or any governmental
authority.

Employees

   
As of the date of this filing, the Company had a total of 77 full-time
employees, of whom 57 are engaged in manufacturing activities.. Effective April
1, 1991, the Company signed a three-year collective bargaining agreement with
the Production, Merchandising and Distribution Employees Union, Local 210,
Affiliated with The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs,
Warehousemen and Helpers of America, AFL-CIO (the "Union") covering its
manufacturing employees. The agreement contains a provision for an automatic
two-year renewal through April 1, 1996. As of the date of this filing, the
Company and the Union have agreed to extend the current agreement to December
31, 1998.. None of the Company's employees have been on strike, or threatened to

strike since the Company's inception and the Company believes its relationship
with all of its personnel is satisfactory.
    

Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances

   
         Part of the Company's long-term plan for growth includes either the
acquisition of or entering into strategic alliances with unrelated companies in
the decorative accessories industry to maximize market potential. For this
purpose, pursuant to a March 3, 1996 agreement relating to the capitalization of
Decor Group, Inc., ("Decor"), an affiliate of the Company, Decor issued to the
Company 250,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which have
since been sold by the Company, and an option to purchase 10,000,000 shares of
its Series B Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Option Shares") in
exchange for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000 shares of its Class A
Common Stock and 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred stock and
a guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness should such indebtedness become
necessary. (The Decor securities are adjusted to reflect a 1-for-2 reverse split
effected by Decor in October 1996.) Also, the Company exercised its option to
purchase the Option Shares in September 1996, for total cash consideration of
$2,000. Concurrent with the exercise of this option, the Company executed a
Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement") to vest the power to vote the Option
Shares in a Voting Trust (the "Voting Trust".) The Voting Agreement will expire
on December 31, 1997. The Voting Trust comprises three individuals: the
Company's 
    

                                       44

<PAGE>

   
President and Chief Executive Officer (and also the Chairman of the Board of
Decor), and two Directors of Decor who are otherwise unrelated to the Company.
As part of the Company's investment in Decor, during the months of August and
September 1996, the Company purchased 54,934 shares of Decor's Series C
Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock at a cost of $824,000. In the formation
of Decor, the Company's intention was to create an affiliate with a corporate
identity clearly separate and distinct from that of the Company. Decor was
organized for the purpose of acquiring the business operations of unrelated
companies. On November 12, 1996 (the "Effective Date"), a public offering by
Decor of certain of its securities was declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Subsequent to the effective date of Decor's initial public
offering, the Company owned approximately 79.6% of the total voting stock of
Decor. As of December 31, 1996, the holding in Decor is recorded on the
Company's financial statements at the market value on November 12, 1996, the
"Measurement Date" of the Company's trading securities previously transferred to
Decor during March 1996. In December 1996, Decor declared and issued a dividend
on its common stock payable in the form of two (2) shares of common stock for
each one (1) share of common stock held as of the record date of December 16,
1996. Each share of Decor's Series A and Series C Preferred stock are
convertible into three (3) shares of Decor's common stock effective December 16,
1996. During February 1997, the Company sold its entire holdings of Series A

Convertible Preferred Stock to an independent investor. Assuming conversion by
the subsequent holder to common stock, the Company will own approximately 77.5%
of the total voting stock of Decor subsequent to such sale and conversion.
    

   
     In May 1996, the Company entered into a two year Management Services
Agreement with Decor whereby the Company will advise Decor on the manufacturing,
sale, marketing and distribution of Decor's products as well as providing Decor
with accounting and administrative services and advice on strategic planning of
joint ventures, acquisitions, and other long term initiatives. Pursuant to this
agreement, the Company will be paid on an annual basis the greater of (1)
$75,000 or (2) 1.5% of excess cashflow as defined in the agreement. The Company
and Decor amended this agreement to increase this payment to $90,000 per annum.
Additional transfers of funds from Decor to the Company will be subject to the
attainment by Decor of excess cash flow totaling $4,000,000 per year through
December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1996, the Company has accrued approximately
$57,000 of fees pursuant to this agreement.
    

   
         Decor entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with
Artisan House, Inc. ("Artisan House") to purchase substantially all of the
operating assets, and assume certain liabilities of Artisan House for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,526,400, subject to certain adjustments. Decor
completed the Artisan House acquisition on November 18, 1996. Artisan House,
located in Los Angeles, California and founded in 1964, is engaged in the
design, manufacturing, and marketing of metal wall, table and freestanding
sculptures. Management believes that Artisan House's products bridge the gap
between high priced gallery art and mass produced decorative pieces. Artisan
House products retail from approximately $100 to over $400. The primary goal of
Artisan House is to supply a broad spectrum of design driven sculpture and
decorative accessories at moderate prices. At December 31, 1996, the balance
sheet of Artisan House reflected total assets of approximately $4,500,000. For
the period November 19, 1996 to December 31, 1996, Artisan House realized net
income of approximately $41,000 on revenues totaling approximately $635,000.

         Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer, was issued 9 of the outstanding 100 Common shares of Lance Acquisition
Corp. ("LAC") which on March 3, 1996 acquired the assets of The Lance
Corporation ("Lance") a Massachusetts manufacturer and distributor of various
products for the giftware and collectibles marketplace. The Company and LAC
entered into an agreement whereby each entity will guarantee certain liabilities
of the other. Subsequently, LAC disposed of its assets acquired from Lance, and
has finalized the terms of transition with the new owners and existing secured
creditors. (See "The Company - Italia Collection")
    


Description of Property

   
         The Company has its principal offices at 320 Washington Street, Mt.
Vernon, New York, where it has sub-leased approximately 56,000 square feet of
administrative offices, manufacturing and warehousing facilities and a factory
showroom. The Company's sublease with Stern Metals expires December 31, 1996.
The Company's monthly base rent payments under the sublease are approximately
$20,000 per month. As of the date of this filing, the Company and Stern Metals
agree that rent of approximately $199,000 is accrued at September 30, 1996. The
Company and Stern Metals are currently negotiating terms of the payment of this
liability. The Company is also negotiating an extension its lease with the new
owners of the building. The Company has determined that there is substantial
manufacturing and warehousing space available in its present vicinity if the
Company were required to expand or relocate some or all of its current
facilities. However, there can be no assurances that when the current sublease
for the Company's principal facility expires that the Company will be able to
negotiate a renewal thereof on acceptable terms or obtain alternative
manufacturing and warehousing space on terms acceptable to the Company.
    

         The Company also operates three specialty custom frame showrooms, which
are in Mt. Vernon, New York City, and Philadelphia. The Company occupies
approximately 1,800 square feet of showroom and office space at 172 East 75th
Street in New York City pursuant to a lease expiring January 31, 2003 between
the Company and Francesco Saggese. The lease requires the Company to pay rent at
rates which escalate 4% per year on February 1 and which rental is currently
approximately $6,200 per month. In addition, pursuant to a five-year lease
agreement dated August 31, 1995 between I.R.A.L., Inc., a subsidiary of the
Company and Hoopskirts Factory Partners, the Company occupies approximately
5,740 square feet of showroom, warehouse and office space in "Old Town"
Philadelphia, PA. The agreement provides for minimum rent of $2,500 per month.
Under the current lease agreement, the lease term will expire on August 31,
2000. The Company believes alternate space is available if the Company is
required to relocate and that any such relocation would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company. However, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain such alternate space on terms acceptable to the
Company.

   
         During April 1996, Italia moved its operations to the premises of The
Lance Acquisition Corporation ("Lance"), a Massachusetts manufacturer and
distributor of various products to the giftware and collectibles market. Lance
operates in a 48,000 square foot facility located at 321 Central Street, Hudson
Massachusetts 01748. Italia had occupied approximately 10,000 square feet of
this space on a temporary basis. By July 1996, the Company has fully vacated
Lance's facilities. (See "The Company - Italia Collection.") Italia had occupied
approximately 1,750 square feet of space at International Home Furnishings
Center ("IHFC") in High Point, North Carolina, pursuant to a lease dated May 1,
1993. The term of the lease was five years and required 

                                       46

<PAGE>


rent payments of approximately $2,200 per month. The Company and the IHFC
terminated the Italia lease effective November 1996.
    

         The Company believes all of such facilities are adequate for its
current needs; however, the Company will require approximately 1,500 to 2,000
square feet of space for its contemplated showroom location. Inasmuch as the
Company has not selected the city in which it plans to establish such showroom,
it has no arrangements for such lease and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain appropriate facilities on terms acceptable to the
Company.

Legal Proceedings

   
         During April and May of 1995, Hide Tashiro commenced two lawsuits in
the Supreme Court of New York, Manhattan County, totaling $225,000 (plus
interest and attorney's fees) against the Company and others. The complaint
demands payment by the Company for loans made by the plaintiff. The Company
believes it has meritorious defenses against these claims since it believes that
it is owed commissions in excess of the loan payment. In April 1996 the
plaintiff's motions for summary judgement were denied and the court held that
there was an issue of fact to be tried. As of the date of this filing, there has
been no further action.
    

       

   
         In July 1995, the Company through its attorneys made demand against
Morgan Steel Ltd. The office of which is located on the Isle of Man, England,
for the payment to the Company of $362,507 on account of a perceived violation
of Section 16 (b) of the Securities and Exchange Act. No response to said demand
for payment has been made to date. On May 23, 1996, the Company's Board of
Directors resolved that the Company and its officers and directors undertake no
action given the uncertainty of the cost of collectibility, and ultimate legal
liability of Morgan Steel Ltd. either in the United States or the Isle of Man.
As of the date of this filing, there has been no further action.
    

   
         In July 1996, Gear Holdings, Inc. brought an action in the Supreme
Court of New York, Manhattan County, against the Company for the alleged breach
of a licensing agreement. The Company denies that it was a party to an
agreement, or that an agreement in writing exists with Gear, or that any sum of
money is owed. The complaint demands sums Gear allegedly would have received
under an agreement in a sum to be determined, but not less than $250,000.
    

   
         In July 1996, certain litigation brought against the Company and its
principals and Directors by Ted Stevens, Ann Stevens and Morris Munn, as listed
below, was settled. The litigation involved the manner in which control of the

Company passed from Morris Munn, the Company's founder, to Max Munn, his son and
the Company's current President and Chief Executive Officer. Ann Stevens is
Morris Munn's daughter, Max Munn's sister, and Ted Stevens wife. Both Ann and
Ted Stevens had been senior executives of the Company prior to October 1995. At
that date, their employment from the Company was terminated. Thus, the
litigation also involved the settlement between the Company and Ann Stevens of
her employment agreement in effect at the time of her termination from the
Company in October 1995. Settlement of the lawsuits by Ted Stevens and Morris
Munn against the Company and its officers and Directors are subject to Court
approval. Request for such approval was submitted to the Court of Chancery of
the State of Delaware in March 1997. Such approval was received in April 1997.
    

                                       47

<PAGE>

         (a) On October 13, 1995, Ted Stevens, individually, as a Shareholder
         and Director and Morris Munn, individually and as a Director and on
         behalf of themselves and all other similarly situated Shareholders and
         Directors of the Company filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the
         State of New York, County of Westchester, against the Company and its
         directors seeking unspecified damages and certain changes in the
         composition of the Company's Board.

         (b) On December 1, 1995, Ted Stevens filed a complaint in United States
         District Court, Southern District of New York, against Laurie Munn and
         American Stock Transfer & Trust Company seeking, among other things,
         the equitable recision of a stock sale agreement between Mr. Stevens
         and Ms. Munn. On February 29, 1996, the Court held that Mr. Stevens did
         not have the right to recision and denied Mr. Stevens' motion for a
         preliminary injunction and on April 17, 1996, the Court dismissed the
         action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

         (c) On December 12, 1995, Ann Stevens filed a complaint in the Supreme
         Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau against the Company
         and certain Directors seeking, among other things, compensatory and
         punitive damages arising out of the alleged breach of Ann Stevens'
         Employment Agreement.

         (d) On April 23, 1996, Ted Stevens filed a complaint in the Court of
         Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company and certain
         Directors, seeking among other things, the recision of a certain stock
         sale agreement between the Company and Laurie Munn.

         The litigation relating to the termination of the 1995 employment
agreement between Ann Stevens and the Company has been settled by the execution
of an employment severance agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the
Agreement, the Company paid Ms. Stevens $63,000 for accrued and unpaid
compensation upon execution of the Agreement. Subsequently, for a period of
seven years, the Company will make bi-weekly payments to Ms. Stevens to total
$72,000 for the first year, $70,000 for each of the next three years, and
$50,000 for each of the final three years. As additional compensation, the
Company will pay Ms. Stevens for reimbursement for certain expenses, $50,000 in

various installments during the four months ending December 1996. The Company
also entered into a non-compete agreement with Ms. Stevens for which the Company
will make bi-weekly payments to Ms. Stevens to total $25,000 per year for seven
years, plus automobile and insurance costs for five years. As of June 30, 1996,
the Company issued to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Shares, which were previously committed to Ms. Stevens pursuant to her 1995
employment agreement. The purpose of this filing, among other things, is to
register these 50,000 Class A Common Shares with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The 50,000 Class A Common Shares are subject to a "lock-up"
agreement with VTR Capital Corporation, the Company's investment bankers. As of
June 30, 1996, the Company placed into escrow 1,250,000 shares of its Class B
Common Shares (the "Escrow Shares") with Michael Levine, Esq., attorney of Ms.
Stevens, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"). The Escrow Agent shall abstain
from voting the Escrow Shares for any purpose, except in the event of either the
failure by the Company to adhere to the payment provisions noted above or the
financial insolvency of the Company. If either event occurs, Ms. Stevens will be
in a position to elect replacement Directors. Once the payment provisions in the
severance and non-compete agreements are satisfied, the Escrow Agent shall
return the Escrow Shares to the Company.

   
         In February 1997, the terms of the agreement with Ms. Stevens were
modified to provide for additional payments of $500 per month over 16 months,
and to provide for $6,000 as 
    

                                       48

<PAGE>

   
reimbursement for legal expenses. The terms described above are the basis for
the settlement of certain litigation brought against the Company and its
principals and Directors by Ted Stevens, Ann Stevens and Morris Munn.
    

   
         In August 1996, The Munn Trust of 1975, Sol Munn and Evelyn A. Munn,
Co-Trustees commenced an action in the Supreme Court of New York , County of
Suffolk against the Company as well as Max Munn, the Company's President and
Chief Executive Officer and Laurie Munn, his wife for non-payment of $150,000
plus interest. The Company claims that any obligation that it had pursuant to
this matter has been satisfied by the Company in the prior fiscal year and that
any amounts that may be unpaid are due solely by Mr. and Mrs. Munn. The Company
has not guaranteed such liabilities. This matter has been settled.
    

   
         In August 1996, SJP Contractors of New York, Inc. commenced an action
in the Supreme Court of New York, County of Westchester against the predecessor
entity of the Company, A.P.F. Holdings, Inc., and others for $208,165 for work,
labor, and services allegedly performed in January 1991 for the renovation of
the Company's premises. The Company's answer pleads that payment was made for
the amount owed.

    

   
         In June 1996, Artagraph Reproduction Technology, Inc., a Canadian
company, brought an action in the Supreme Court of New York, County of
Westchester against the Company demanding the sum of $27,838.08 plus attorney's
fees, alleging that the Company was obligated to deliver a confession of
judgement in connection with the sale of merchandise. Artagraph seeks injunctive
relief; the Company is not aware of a determination of this motion by the Court
and denies any obligation to Artagraph.
    

         In September 1991, without admitting or denying the allegations, Max
Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer agreed with the
Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") to the entry of a Consent Order in an action
brought against Mr. Munn and others; which action arose out of the advertising
of certain lithographs of original works of art as regards to whether or not the
artist had played a substantial role in the production of the lithographs. The
case was settled before trial or discovery solely with entry of the above
Consent Order; which enjoins Mr. Munn from making certain representations in
connection with the sale of any works of art. The Consent Order also requires
Mr. Munn for a period of five years (which expired as of September 1996) as to
the maintenance of certain records as they concern the sale of certain
lithographs.

         The Company is subject to other claims and litigation in the ordinary
course of business. In management's opinion, such claims are not material to the
Company's financial position or its results of operations.

Management Biographies

         Brief biographies of the Directors, executive officers, and key
personnel of the Company are set forth below. All Directors hold office until
their resignation, retirement, removal, disqualification, death or until their
successors have been elected and qualified. Vacancies in the existing Board of
Directors are filled by majority vote of the remaining Directors. Officers of
the Company serve at the will of the Board of Directors.

         Max Munn has been President and Chief Executive Officer since September
1995. In June 1996 Mr. Munn was named Chairman of the Board of Decor Group, Inc.
(See "Recent Developments.") He served as Executive Vice President, Operations
and Secretary of the Company between February 1994 and September 1995, and a
Director thereof since March 1994. He served as Vice President of A.P.F. from
May 1993 until the A.P.F. merger with the Company. From November 1990 to May
1993, he was a consultant to the Company, as well as a consultant directly and
indirectly to Imperial Enterprises, Inc., a catalog company in Japan, and the
IEI Corporation, a direct marketer, in Princeton, New Jersey. From 1981 to
February 1990 he was Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of
Collectors' Guild International Inc. In June 1990 Collectors' Guild filed a
petition for relief under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and was subsequently
liquidated. Mr. Munn is subject to a Consent Order entered by the FTC in
September 1991. See "Management Consent Order." Mr. Munn holds a Bachelor of
Architecture degree from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and
subsequently did graduate level study in Art History at Columbia University.

       

         Roger Lourie was named as a Director on May 4, 1995. He is an engineer
and book publisher. He has over twenty years of experience with Procter and
Gamble, Time Inc., Mead Paper, and Grolier Inc. He was Senior Vice President of

                                       50

<PAGE>

General Partner of Tremon Associates and President of Misty Ridge Associates,
which are equity investment firms. He is also Chairman of the Board of two
Connecticut-based manufacturing concerns. He has a B.S. degree in Engineering
from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and M.B.A. and M.I.A. degrees from

investment banking firm. Josephberg Grosz specializes in providing private
institutional capital to emerging growth companies. Mr. Josephberg has a B.B.A.
degree from the University of Cincinnati, and attended Bernard Baruch Graduate
School of Business in New York.

   
         On February 19, 1997, the employment of Michael J. Amore as the
Company's Vice President and Chief Financial Officer was terminated. As of that
date, Mr. Amore's service as a director of the Company also terminated. This

termination was necessitated by the Company's need to restructure its
administrative organization, particularly in light of the need for cost
reductions. Mr. Amore did not have an employment contract. It is not anticipated
that his termination will result in any significant charges against earnings.
    

   
         On January 31, 1997, Donald Feldman resigned from the Company's Board
of Directors to devote his time exclusively to the business activities of Decor
Group, Inc. On February 28, 1997, Mr. Feldman's employment with Decor was
terminated, due to the need for a restructuring of the sales and marketing
organization. The Company and Decor have negotiated terms of separation with Mr.
Feldman. It is not anticipated that his termination will result in any
significant charges against earnings.
    

         Consent Order

         In September 1991 Mr. Munn, without admitting or denying the
allegations, agreed with the FTC to the entry of a Consent Order for Permanent
Injunction for Defendant Max Munn (previously defined as the "Consent Order") in
an action brought in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
York (90 CIV. 2554 (LMM)) against Collectors' Guild Ltd, Inc., Collectors'
Guild, Mr. Munn and J. Robert Leshufy which action arose out of the sale of
certain lithographs of original works of art. The Consent Order arose out of a
complaint alleging that Collectors Guild, and its officer, Mr. Munn, had made
advertising representations implying that the artist had played a substantial
role in the creation and production of the lithographs. Collectors Guild and Mr.
Munn denied the allegations. The case was settled before trial or discovery,
solely with entry of the above Consent Order. The Consent Order permanently
enjoins Mr. Munn from making certain false representations in connection with
the promotion, sale or offering for sale of any art works, from removing certain
mandated disclosures on certain art, and, for a period of five years, from
destroying, mutilating, altering, or disposing of any books, records, tapes,
checks, and other business records enumerated in the Consent Order in his
possession or the possession of any business entities directly or indirectly
under Mr. Munn's control for a period of three years after creation or receipt
of such documents. Mr. Munn is also required for a period of five years to
notify the FTC of any change in his residence or employment within 30 days of
any change and must permit FTC officials access to his office upon five days
notice for inspection purposes. The Consent Order extends to Mr. Munn, his
successors, assigns, agents, servants and employees, and all persons or entities
in active concert 

                                       51

<PAGE>

or participation with him who receive actual notice of the Consent Order and, in
part, to any business entities directly or indirectly under his control or in
which he owns a controlling interest, directly or indirectly.

         There are no material proceedings to which any director, officer or
affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than five

percent of any class of voting securities of the Company, or any associate of
any such director, officer, affiliate of the Company or security holder is a
party adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or has a material
interest adverse the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who
own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of equity
securities of the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
Nasdaq. Officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent shareholders are
required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section
16(a) forms that they file.

         Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, Forms 4, and Form 5 furnished to
the Company pursuant to Rule 16a-3 under the Exchange Act, the Company believes
that all such forms required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the
Exchange Act were timely filed, as necessary, by the officers, directors and
securityholders required to file the same.

Employment Arrangements

         On February 15, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors agreed in
principle to enter into a four-year employment agreement between the Company and
its President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement will provide an annual
base salary of $150,000, with annual increases of 10%. Such increases will be
subject to the attainment of profitable results of operations by the Company. In
addition, the agreement will grant the President and Chief Executive Officer an
option to purchase at any time 150,000 shares of the Company's Series A, 10%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock at a price of $2.50 per share. The
exercise of this option, as well as any subsequent conversion to the Company's
Class A Common Stock, will require the prior consent of the Company's investment
banking firm. The agreement will also contain a "non-compete" clause and provide
the President and Chief Executive Officer with the use of an automobile. As of
the date of this filing, the document for this agreement has not been finalized
or executed. This is expected to occur during the subsequent period. Presently,
the President and Chief Executive Officer draws an annual salary of $150,000 and
has the use of an automobile provided by the Company.

         In August 1995 the Company entered into a four year employment
agreement with Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President, with an annual salary
of $150,000. In addition, on or about September 30, 1995, the agreement provides
for Ms. Stevens to receive a one time payment of either, at the Company's
option, $50,000 or 50,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to this
agreement, Ms. Stevens was also entitled to receive stock options, stock bonuses
and other equity instruments in an amount equal to that received by Max Munn or
members of his immediate family. In June 1996, the Company executed an
employment severance agreement with Ms. Stevens which terminated the provisions
of the August 1995 employment agreement. The employment severance agreement

stipulated that the Company will pay to Ms. Stevens an initial payment of
$63,000, and make various periodic payments over seven years. In addition, the
Company agreed to issue to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A
Common Shares. Such shares were issued on July 25, 1996. (See "Legal
Proceedings.") The purpose of this filing, among other things, is to register
these 50,000 Class A Common Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The 50,000 Class A Common Shares are subject to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR
Capital Corporation, the Company's investment bankers.

         On October 27, 1995 the Company entered into a one-year employment
agreement with Robert Schildkraut, then Vice President, Operations with an
annual base salary of $120,000. The Agreement could be terminated by the Company
with a payment of 50% of the employee's salary remaining under the agreement or
a payment of six week's salary in the event the employee resigned from the
Company. The Agreement also provided for the employee to be granted certain
stock options to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 Class A Shares, 50,000 of
which are to be granted and vested immediately at a price of $2.00 per share,
exercisable in six months from the date of grant, and any attempt to exercise
these options during the exercise period will terminate the options granted on
September 16, 1994; options to purchase 25,000 shares at a price of $4.00 per
share to be granted on the second anniversary; and options to purchase 25,000
shares at a price of $5.00 per share to be granted on the third anniversary. The
Agreement also provided for a bonus program based on the Company meeting certain
minimum profit goals. In April 1996, the employment of the Vice President,
Operations was terminated. The Company settled its obligations to the employee
during the subsequent quarter. This settlement took the form of severance
payments totaling approximately $27,000. No securities have been issued to the
employee as part of the settlement.

   
         On May 8, 1995, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with
Donald Feldman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing of the Company. The
Agreement was for a term of four years beginning June 1995 and was terminable by
the Company after the first year with payment of 80% of the employee's salary,
reduced by the employee's other income. The Agreement provided for a base salary
of $117,500 plus sales incentives Mr. Feldman was granted an option to purchase
10,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock for every full year under
the employment agreement at a price of $2.50 per share. Concurrent with the
Effective Date of Decor Group, Inc.'s ("Decor") initial public offering (See
"Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances."), the Company and Mr. Feldman planned to
terminate Mr. Feldman's
    

                                       55

<PAGE>

   
Employment Agreement with the Company. Mr. Feldman and Decor had planned to
enter into a three (3) year employment agreement with Decor at such Effective
Date. Mr. Feldman resigned from the Company's Board of Directors effective
January 31, 1997. On April 17, 1997, Mr. Feldman resigned from the Company and
simultaneously resigned from Decor entering into a Severance Agreement with
Decor.

    

         As part of the Italia acquisition during fiscal year ended June 30,
1995, the Company entered into various consulting and employment agreements
aggregating $176,000 per annum. The agreements were subject to termination at
any time by Italia for reasons specified in the agreements. In July 1995, the
employment agreement for the President of Italia, as well as all other
agreements, were terminated by the Company.

Consulting Arrangements

         Effective as of January 4, 1994, the Company entered into a two year
Marketing and Organizational Agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") with Robert
M. Leopold. Pursuant to the Marketing Agreement, Mr. Leopold will consult with
and advise the Company concerning its marketing plans, business operations,
organization, management, strategic planning, products and services,
acquisitions, mergers, and other matters. Mr. Leopold will be paid $9,375 each
quarter in advance together with reimbursement for expenses incurred not to
exceed $200 per month. In August 1995, the Company agreed to issue, at a future
date, 60,000 Class A Common Shares to Mr. Leopold in settlement of all current
and future liabilities, under this agreement. These shares, which bear a
restrictive legend, were approved by the Company's Board of Directors in
November 1995. In conjunction with the issuance of these shares, approximately
$55,000 was charged against earnings during the year ending June 30, 1996.

   
         On April 1, 1995, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with
Morris Munn, father of Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer under which he will provide the Company with: design and fabrication of
new molds for sculpture; recommend, and implement improvements in antiquing,
woodworking, gilding and carving processes; and attend trade shows for frame
making and mold making. Fees under the agreement are payable at $54,000 per
annum for one year renewable at the Company's option. On June 30, 1996, Morris
Munn's Consulting Agreement was extended for five (5) years. Pursuant to the
terms of this new agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Morris Munn an
option to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Preferred Shares at a
net exercise price of $2.25 per share. The Preferred Shares issuable upon the
exercise of the Option were registered for sale to the public under a
Registration Statement in Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on July 3, 1996. The Option was fully exercised during July to
September 1996 generating net proceeds to the Company totaling $787,500. (See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources.") Subsequent to Morris Munn's exercise of
these shares, the Company's investment banking firm arranged for the sale of all
350,000 shares to independent investors at a price per share of $2.50. In
conjunction with the issuance of the Option, the Company recorded charges
against earnings of $87,500 at June 30, 1996. In addition, the new agreement
provides for bi-weekly payments to Morris Munn totaling $54,000 per year for
five years. In exchange, Morris Munn has agreed to assist the Company with
marketing, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and other strategic
initiatives. Morris Munn has previously spent up to 10 to 15 hours per month in
consulting activities for the Company , primarily on product development and
assisting Max Munn in analyzing potential acquisitions. Morris Munn has ceased
performing consulting or any other services for the Company.
    


         From time-to-time during prior periods, Sol Munn, uncle of Max Munn,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has provided various
consulting services to the Company with respect to the marketing of custom
picture frames. In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved the
issuance to Sol Munn of 150,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, in
consideration for these services. The shares, which bear a restrictive legend,
were issued on April 12, 1996. In conjunction with the issuance of these shares,
approximately $54,000 of charges against earnings were recorded during the year
ended June 30, 1996. This filing is meant, among other things, to register these
150,000 Class A

                                       56

<PAGE>

Common Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The 150,000 Class A
Common Shares are subject to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR Capital Corporation,
the Company's investment bankers.

     Other than services provided by the Company's investment banking firm, no
services have been provided at the Company's direction by any consultant or
advisor with respect to the issuance or sale of the Company's equity securities.

Stock Option Plans

         The 1994 Plan. On June 20, 1994, the Company adopted the Interiors,
Inc. 1994 Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "1994 Plan"), which
provides for the granting of options to officers, employees and consultants to
purchase not more than an aggregate of 250,000 Class A Shares. Directors of the
Company are not eligible to participate in the 1994 Plan. The 1994 Plan provides
for the grant of options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" under
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") as well as options
which do not so qualify.

         Pursuant to the 1994 Plan, the Board of Directors or a stock option
committee established by the Board to administer the 1994 Plan determines the
persons to whom options are granted, the number of Class A Shares subject to
option, the period during which the options may be exercised and the option
exercise price. With respect to incentive stock options, no option may be
granted more than ten years after the effective date of the 1994 Plan or
exercised more than ten years after the date of grant (five years if the
optionee owns more than ten percent of the Class A Shares of the Company at the
time of grant). Additionally, with respect to incentive stock options, the
option price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Class A
Shares on the date of the grant (110% if the optionee owns more than ten percent
of the Class A Shares of the Company at the time of grant). The fair market
value of the Class A Shares will be determined by the Board or the Committee in
accordance with the 1994 Plan as follows: If the Class A Shares are not listed
and traded upon a recognized securities exchange, on the basis of recent
purchases and sales of Class A Shares in arms-length transactions or based on
the last reported sale or transaction price for such stock on the date of grant
or, if the shares are traded on a recognized securities exchange or quoted on
the Nasdaq National Market System upon the basis of the last reported sale or

transaction price on the date of grant or, if the shares were not traded on such
date, on the date nearest preceding that date. Subject to certain limited
exceptions, options may not be exercised unless, at the time of exercise, the
optionee is in the service of the Company.

         The Board of Directors or the Committee may, in its discretion, at any
time prior to the exercise of any option, grant in connection with such option
the right to surrender part or all of such option to the extent the option is
exercisable, and receive an amount (payable in cash, Class A Shares or
combination thereof as determined by the Board or the Committee) equal to the
difference between the then fair market value of the shares issuable upon the
exercise of the option (or portions thereof surrendered) and the exercise price
of the option or portion thereof surrendered.

         On September 16, 1994, the Board of Directors granted Incentive Options
to purchase an aggregate of 159,000 Class A Shares under the 1994 Plan at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of
grant, or $3.50 per share, to 23 employees and Incentive Options to purchase
25,000 Class A Shares to Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President of the
Company and wife of then Company President, Theodore Stevens, at 110% of the
fair market value or $3.85 per share. Of such options, options to purchase
75,000 Class A Shares were granted to Max Munn, now President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President
of the Company, and Mr. Munn's sister. In addition, on October 5, 1994 the Board
of Directors granted Incentive Options to two employees to purchase an aggregate
of 20,000 Class A Shares at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of
the shares or $3.38 per share. With respect to each such grant, 25% of such
options will vest each year commencing on the first anniversary of the grant.

         The Director Plan. On June 20, 1994 the Board of Directors approved the
1994 Director Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "Director Plan").
The Director Plan was adopted to provide an incentive to Directors through
automatic and discretionary grants of stock options. The Director Plan provides
for the grant of options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" under
the Code as well as options which do not so qualify.

         The Director Plan may be administered by a committee appointed by the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). Options under the Director
Plan may be granted to each person who is a Director of the Company on the date
of grant. All Directors of the Company are eligible to receive options under the
Director Plan.

         The Director Plan provides for the granting of options to Directors in
such amount and, subject to the terms of the Director Plan, upon such terms as
the Board or Committee determines in its discretion in order to reward the
recipient director for extraordinary service to the Company. In addition, on the
second Monday of May of each year each person who is then a director of the
Company shall be automatically granted an option to purchase 10,000 of the
Company's Class A Shares, subject to adjustment as provided for in the Director
Plan. The aggregate number of shares for which options may be issued pursuant to

the Director Plan is 250,000 shares. The exercise price for options granted
under the Director Plan must be equal to the fair market value per Class A Share
on the date of grant. The fair market value of the Class A Shares will be
determined by the Board or the Committee in accordance with the Director Plan as
follows: If the Class A Shares are not listed and traded upon a recognized
securities exchange, on the basis of recent purchases and sales of Class A
Shares in arms-length transactions or based on the last reported sale or
transaction price for such stock on the date of grant or, if the shares are
traded on a recognized securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market System upon the last reported sale or transaction price on the date of
grant or, if the shares were not traded on such date, on the date nearest
preceding that date. Each option granted under the Director Plan expires ten
years after the date of grant, unless a lesser period is specified by the
Committee.

         In the event an optionee ceases to be a Director of the Company for any
reason at a time when he holds an option, he may exercise only such options as
are exercisable at the time he ceases to be a Director, within the original term
of the option. Options which are not exercisable at the time an optionee ceases
to be a Director shall terminate. In the event an optionee dies, the Director
Plan provides for the exercise of an option on behalf of the deceased Director.

         On September 16, 1994, the Board of Directors granted Incentive Options
to purchase 25,000 Class A Shares to each of Theodore Stevens, then President
and Max Munn, President and Chief Executive Officer and then Executive Vice
President-Operations under the Director Plan at an exercise price equal to 110%
of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, or $3.85 per share,
all of which options immediately vested. As of the date of this filing, with Mr.
Stevens no longer an officer or Director of the Company, the Company does not
plan to issue to Mr. Stevens any additional shares pursuant to any agreement
currently in effect, except that Mr. Stevens currently holds 269,750 shares of
the Company's Class B Common shares each of which are convertible into one Class
A Common share at Mr. Stevens option.

Profit Sharing and Deferred Compensation Plans

         In July 1991 the Company adopted a Qualified Profit Sharing Plan for
all nonunion employees and a nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan for certain
key employees. The Company has not made any contributions to the Qualified
Profit Sharing Plan or the Deferred Compensation Plan since its initial
contribution during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992.

                             Principal Stockholders

   
         Each Class A Share is entitled to one vote and each Class B Share is
entitled to five votes. The Company has no other voting securities outstanding.
It does, however, have certain securities outstanding that are convertible into
Class A Common Shares. As of the date of this filing, such securities are: (1)
1,058,860 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, each convertible into 3 shares of

Class A Common stock commencing September 18, 1996, (2) 3,055,588 Class WA
Warrants, each exercisable into one Class A Common share and one Class WB
Warrant, and (3) 845,150 Class WB Warrants, each exercisable into one Common A
share, and (4) 2,270,000 Class WC Warrants, each exercisable into one share of
Series A Preferred Stock (subject to the filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission of a post-effective amendment to the Company's September 18, 1995
Registration Statement whereby such Class WC Warrants were registered with the
Commission.)
    

         The following table sets forth certain information as of the date
hereof with respect to: (1) each executive officer and director; (2) all
executive officers and directors of the Company as a group; and (3) all persons
known by the Company to be the beneficial owners of five percent or more of the
Company's Class A or Class B Shares of Common Stock. The table below also sets
forth as to each holder the percent of voting power represented by the Class A
Shares (with one vote per share) and the Class B Shares (with five votes per
share) voting as a single class prior to conversion of the Class B Shares to
Class A Shares and after giving effect to the conversion of such Class B Shares
and assuming no exercise of outstanding Warrants.

                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

In October 1990 A.P.F. issued 100 shares of its Common Stock, no par value, to
Theodore Stevens, then President and a former Director of the Company, for
aggregate consideration of $225,000 and in October 1990 A.P.F. issued 165 shares
of its Preferred Stock, $1,000 par value per share, to Theodore Stevens in
consideration for the payment of $165,000. On June 30, 1992, A.P.F. converted
certain indebtedness arising from services rendered and loans provided by Decor
Holdings, Inc, a company controlled by Theodore Stevens, to A.P.F. in the amount
of $114,000 to 114 shares of Preferred Stock of A.P.F. In March 1994 such shares
were transferred by Decor to Theodore Stevens and all of such 279 shares of
Preferred Stock were converted by Mr. Stevens into 124 shares of A.P.F. Common
Stock. As a result of the Company's recapitalization, the Company issued
1,000,000 Class B Shares (constituting all of the then issued and outstanding
Class B Shares of the Company) to Theodore Stevens in exchange for all of the

issued and outstanding Common Stock of A.P.F., the predecessor to the Company.

In August 1995, Theodore Stevens, a Director of the Company, and Laurie Munn,
wife of Max Munn, President and Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the
Company, entered into an agreement whereby an existing option granted by Mr.
Stevens to Mrs. Munn to purchase 500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $3.50
per share was canceled and Mr. Stevens sold to Mrs. Munn 269,750 shares of Class
B Common Stock for $150,000 payable by an initial installment of $15,000 and a
promissory note for the balance of the purchase price payable in 15 years with
interest at the rate of 6.6% per annum. On December 1, 1995, Mr. Stevens filed a
complaint in United States District Court, Southern District of New York against
Ms. Munn seeking, among other things, the recession of this stock sale. In June
1996, the parties agreed to a settlement without either the recession of the
stock sale or the need for additional payments by any party to the transaction.
(See "Legal Proceedings.")

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company borrowed the sum of
$75,000 from Sol Munn, the uncle of Max Munn, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company and borrowed an additional $75,000 in fiscal 1993. The
aggregate amount due in the amount of $150,000 was evidenced by a promissory
note dated September 1, 1993, payable to The Munn Trust of 1975-Trustee: Sol
Munn and Evelyn Munn and bore interest at the rate of 12% per annum. The note
was payable September 1, 1996, subject to the right of Sol Munn to extend the
term for an additional one year period upon 60 days notice. In March 1994 the
bearer of the note agreed to purchase certain works of art at 58% above the
Company's cost in full satisfaction of the above note. The Company recorded
approximately $87,000 credit to earnings pursuant to this transaction. On August
13, 1996, The Munn Trust of 1975, Sol Munn and Evelyn A. Munn, co-trustees,
commenced action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of
Suffolk against Laurie Munn, Max Munn, and the Company pursuant to this
transaction, seeking monetary damages for the sum of $111,000. (See "Legal
Proceedings.")

   
On July 7, 1994, Theodore Stevens, Max Munn and Ann Stevens, then respectively
President, Executive Vice President and Executive Vice President of the Company,
personally guaranteed the obligations of the Company under a Promissory Note
dated July 7, 1994 in the amount of $950,000 at an interest rate of prime plus
one percent (9.25% as of the date of this filing) to a New York bank. Pursuant
to terms of settlement involving various issues (See "Legal Proceedings"), in
the event that the Company's debt to the Bank is not repaid in full prior to
March 31, 1997, the Company will pay Ann Stevens, who is married to Mr. Stevens,
 .2083% of the outstanding balance per month as compensation for her personal
guarantee. As of March 31, 1997, the outstanding balance of this note totals
$715,000..
    

On February 15, 1996, the Company's Italia Collection subsidiary entered into a
Financing Arrangement with a New York corporation whereby Italia Collection may
borrow pursuant to an asset-related formula. The agreement remains in effect as
of the date of this filing and may be terminated by either party upon notice to
the other and payment of the commitment fee for the unexpired term of this
agreement. Interest is


                                       61

<PAGE>

   
calculated on the daily cash balance at the rate of prime plus 9% per annum (18%
as of the date of this filing) or a minimum of 18% per annum against a minimum
monthly defined compensation of $3,000. As of the date of this filing, the
amount due to the lender was approximately $506,000. (See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources.") This Financing Arrangement has been personally guaranteed by Max
Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and his wife.
    

For the years ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995, the Company paid
approximately $30,000 and $46,000, respectively, to the father of the President,
and Chief Executive Officer for consulting services. See "Executive Compensation
- - Consulting Arrangements."

In October 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $33,000 from the Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The amount due is evidenced by two
promissory notes dated October 27, 1994 and October 28, 1994 for $8,000 and
$25,000, respectively, which bore interest rates of 18% and 12% per annum,
respectively. The principal and interest were initially due November 17, 1994
and November 18, 1994, respectively, and have been extended to February 15,
1995. Unpaid sums bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum plus $160. In
April, 1995, the Company paid all principal and interest due on both promissory
notes.

In October 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $8,000 from the President of
the Company. The amount due was evidenced by a promissory note dated October 27,
1994, which bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum. The principal and interest
were due November 17, 1994. In November 1994, the Company repaid the loan. In
addition, in November and December 1994, the Company advanced an aggregate
amount of $13,000 to the then Executive Vice President-Operations of the
Company, and now its President and Chief Executive Officer. This amount will be
repaid by the President and Chief Executive Officer to the Company during the
twelve months ended October 1997 at an 18% annual rate of interest.

On February 8, 1996, the Company entered into a demand loan for approximately
$38,000, bearing 18% interest, with the President and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company. This note will be repaid by the President and Chief Executive
Officer to the Company during the twelve months ended October 1997, with
interest as specified above.

In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance to Sol
Munn, uncle of the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, of
150,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, in consideration for past
consulting services provided. These shares, which bear a restrictive legend,
were issued on April 12, 1996. In conjunction with the issuance of these shares,
approximately $54,000 of charges were recorded against earnings during the year
ended June 30, 1996. This filing is meant, among other things, to register these
150,000 Class A Common Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
150,000 Class A Common Shares are subject to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR
Capital Corporation, the Company's investment bankers.


On April 1, 1995, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Morris
Munn, father of Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
under which he will provide the Company with: design and fabrication of new
molds for sculpture; recommend, and implement improvements in antiquing,
woodworking, gilding and carving processes; and attend trade shows for frame
making and mold making. Fees under the agreement are payable at $54,000 per
annum for one year renewable at the Company's option. On June 30, 1996, Morris
Munn's Consulting Agreement was extended for five (5) years. Pursuant to the
terms of this new agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Morris Munn an
option to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Preferred Shares at a
net exercise price of $2.25 per share. The Preferred Shares issuable upon the
exercise of the Option were registered for sale to the public under a
Registration Statement in Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on July 3, 1996. The Option was fully exercised during July to
September 1996 generating net proceeds to the Company totaling $787,500. (See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources.") In addition, the new agreement provides for
bi-weekly payments to Morris Munn totaling $54,000 per year for five years. In
exchange, Morris Munn has agreed to assist the

                                       62

<PAGE>

Company with marketing, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and other
strategic initiatives. In conjunction with the issuance of the Option, the
Company recorded charges against earnings of $87,500 at June 30, 1996.

   
On April 4, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors resolved to issue 250,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to Laurie Munn, wife of the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. This issuance is in
consideration for a down payment of $250, Ms. Munn's 6.6% note to the Company
providing for principal of $437,500 to be paid to the Company in five equal
annual installments of $105,561.90, and Ms. Munn's guarantee and pledge of her
assets for certain Company debt. The shares were issued to Ms. Munn on April 8,
1996. Ms. Munn has executed a Promissory Note and Security Agreement in
conjunction with the issuance of these shares. The first annual installment is
due to be paid on June 30, 1997. The Company obtained an appraisal at that time
to determine the fair market value of this transaction.
    

Pursuant to the Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann Stevens (the
"Settlement"), a former executive of the Company, the Company issued to Ms.
Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. This filing is
meant, among other things, to register these 50,000 Class A Common Shares with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The 50,000 Class A Common Shares are
subject to a "lock-up" agreement with VTR Capital Corporation, the Company's
investment bankers. Also pursuant to the Settlement, the Company issued to
Michael Levine as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") 1,250,000 unregistered
shares of the Company's Class B Common Shares (the "Escrow Shares".) The Escrow
Shares shall not be voted by the Escrow Agent, unless the Company defaults on
its obligations under the agreement. Upon satisfaction of such obligations, the
Escrow Shares shall be returned by the Escrow Agent to the Company. (See "Legal

Proceedings".) In conjunction with the issuance of the Company's shares to Ms.
Stevens, the Company recorded charges against earnings totaling $71,400 at June
30, 1996.

The Company will not permit loans or other transactions among the Company and
the officers, directors, principal shareholders, or affiliates of any of them
for other than bona fide business purposes or on terms less favorable than could
be obtained from third parties, unless approved by a majority of the
disinterested directors and the independent directors, if any, of the Company.

See "Executive Compensation - Employment Arrangements" and "Executive
Compensation - Consulting Arrangements" for descriptions of the present
employment agreement and previous consulting arrangement with Max Munn,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and certain other related
and unrelated parties.

Max Munn may be deemed to be a "parent" or "promoter" of the Company, as that
term is defined in the Securities Act.

                            DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Common Stock

   
         The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company authorizes the issuance
of up to (i) 30,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share, (previously defined as "Class A Shares") of which 4,556,091 Class A
Shares are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof and (ii) 2,500,000
shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (previously defined as
"Class B Shares") of which 2,039,500 Class B Shares are issued and outstanding
as of the date hereof. The holders of shares of Common Stock: (i) have equal
ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefor, when, as and
if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (ii) are entitled to share
ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to
holders of Common Stock, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
affairs of the Company; and (iii) do not have
    

                                       63

<PAGE>

preemptive or subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund
provisions applicable thereto. All shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
are duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable.

         Class A Shares. Each Class A Share is entitled to one non-cumulative
vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote at meetings of
stockholders. The Class A Shares are not convertible into any other securities
of the Company.

         Class B Shares. Each Class B Share is entitled to five non-cumulative
votes per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote at all meetings of
stockholders. The Class B Shares are convertible on a one-for-one basis at any

time after issuance at the option of the holder into Class A Shares. Issuance of
additional Class B Shares could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely
affect the rights of holders of Class A Shares.

         Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of the Common Stock
shall vote together as a single class on all matters.

Preferred Stock

   
         The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company authorizes the issuance
of up to 5,300,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share. Prior to
September 18, 1995, none of such Preferred Stock had been designated or issued.
On September 18, 1995, the Company's "Registration Statement" with respect to
460,000 shares of Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
("Preferred Stock") and 230,000 Redeemable Class WC Warrants ("Warrants") to
purchase Preferred Stock at the exercise price of $5.50 per share was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each share of Preferred
Stock is convertible commencing one year from the date of issue, subject to
adjustment, into three shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company. The Board
of Directors is authorized to issue shares of Preferred Stock from time to time
in one or more series and, subject to the limitations contained in the
Certificate of Incorporation and any limitations prescribed by law, to establish
and designate any such series and to fix the number of shares and the relative
conversion rights, voting rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund
provisions) and liquidation preferences. If shares of Preferred Stock are issued
with voting rights, such issuance could affect the voting rights of the holders
of the Company's Class A Shares and Class B Shares by increasing the number of
outstanding shares having voting rights, and by the creation of class or series
voting rights. Shares of Preferred Stock with conversion rights could
potentially increase the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Issuance
of Preferred Stock could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely
affect the rights of holders of Class A Shares. Also, Preferred Stock could have
preferences over the Class A Shares (and other series of stock) with respect to
dividends and liquidation rights. As of the date of this filing, the Company has
1,058,860 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, all of which are
currently convertible into three shares of Common A shares.
    

Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock

   
         The Series A Preferred Stock consists of 2,870,000 shares of which
1,058,860 shares are currently issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A
Preferred Stock is currently convertible into 3 shares of Class A Common Stock.
After September 17, 2000, it is redeemable by the Company in whole or in part at
$5.50 per share upon 30 days prior written notice. The Series A Preferred Stock
is entitled to a dividend, prior to any payment of dividends on the Class A or
Class B Common Stock, of $0.50 per share per annum payable in semi-annual
installments of $0.25 per share. If the Series A Preferred stock dividend is not
paid, it accumulates until paid in full to date. The Company may elect to pay
the Series A Preferred Stock dividend either in cash or in shares of Class A

Common Stock shall be issued for such purposes on the basis of the average
closing prices of the Class A Common Stock for the ten business days prior to
the date of declaration of the Series A Preferred Stock dividend. The Series A
Preferred Stock shall not have any right to vote except to the extent, if any,
required by Delaware Law. Upon liquidation of the Company, the Series A
Preferred Stock is entitled to receive $5.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid
dividends before any payment is made to the holders of Class A and Class B
Common Stock.

Redeemable Warrants

         Class WA Warrants. Each Class WA Warrant entitles the registered holder
thereof to purchase one Class A Share and one Class WB Warrant at a combined
exercise price of $1.50 until June 23, 1997. The combined exercise price of the
Class WA Warrants as originally issued was $6.00. On March 29, 1995 the Company
announced that because of certain sales of Class A Shares by the Company, the
combined exercise price of each Class WA Warrant had been reduced to $5.17 and
each Class WA Warrant now entitled the holder to purchase 1.1 Class A Shares and
1.1 WB Warrants; and that the exercise price of each WB Warrant had been reduced
from $7.00 to $6.03 (subsequently reduced to $2.00 - see below) and each Class
WB Warrant now entitles the holder to purchase 1.1 Class A Shares. On April 13,
1995 the Board of Directors, as permitted by the terms of the Warrant
Agreements, reduced the combined exercise price of each of the Class WA Warrants
to $1.50 for one share of Class A Stock and for one Class WB Warrant in order to
facilitate the sale of 300,000 shares of Class A Stock by the Company. The
exercise price of the Class WA Warrants is subject to adjustment under certain
circumstances. Fractional Class A Shares will not be issued upon exercise of the
Class WA Warrants and, in lieu thereof, a cash adjustment based on the market
value of the Class A Shares immediately prior to the date of exercise will be
made.

         The Class WA Warrants are redeemable by the Company at any time after
June 22, 1995, and prior to their exercise upon notice of redemption in writing
to the Class WA Warrant holders of record, giving a 30-day notice of such
redemption. The redemption price of the Class WA Warrants is $0.01 per Warrant
if the closing bid price per Class A Share has equaled or exceeded 120% of the
then exercise price of the Class WA Warrants for 20 consecutive trading days
prior to any such call for redemption. Any Class WA Warrants so redeemed, and
not exercised by the end of the date specified in the notice of redemption, will
expire on the books of the Company and cannot be exercised.

         Class WB Warrants. Each Class WB Warrant entitles the registered holder
thereof to purchase one Class A Share at a purchase price of $2.00 until June
22, 1999. The exercise price of the Class WB Warrant was previously $6.03. In
January 1996, the Company announced that the exercise price of the Class WB
Warrant is reduced to $2.00 per Class A Common share. The exercise price of the
Class WB Warrants is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances.
Fractional Class A Shares will not be issued upon exercise of the Class WB
Warrants and, in lieu thereof, a cash adjustment based on the market value of

the Class A Shares immediately prior to the date of exercise will be made.

         The Class WB Warrants are redeemable by the Company at any time prior
to their exercise after June 22, 1995, and upon notice of redemption in writing
to the Warrant holders of record, giving a 30-day notice of such redemption. The
redemption price of the Class WB Warrants is $0.01 per Warrant if the closing
bid price per Class A Share has equaled or exceeded 120% of the then exercise
price of the Class WB Warrants for 20 consecutive trading days prior to any such
call for redemption. Any Class WB Warrants so redeemed, and not exercised by the
end of the date specified in the notice of redemption, will expire on the books
of the Company and cannot be exercised.

         Class WC Warrants. Each Class WC Warrant entitles the holder to
purchase one share of Preferred Stock during the five year period commencing
September 18, 1995 at a purchase price of $5.50, subject to the maintenance by
the Company of a current registration statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Commencing one year from the date of issuance, each Class
WC Warrant shall be redeemable by the Company at a redemption price of $.05 per
Warrant upon thirty days prior written notice to holders; provided, however,
that the closing average bid price of the Preferred Stock in the
over-the-counter market, for a period of twenty consecutive trading days prior
to such call for redemption, shall have been 110% or more of the then effective
exercise price of the Class WC Warrants.

         The Warrants are exercisable by tendering to American Stock Transfer &
Trust Company, New York (the "Warrant Agent") the appropriate exercise price
along with the Warrant certificate (with the election to purchase section on the
reverse side of the certificate properly filled out.) The Company shall then
issue and sell such fully paid and nonassessable Class A Shares, Class WB
Warrants, and Series A Preferred Shares, as applicable, to the Warrant holder as
specified on the certificate so tendered. Payment of the exercise price shall be
made in cash or by certified check or bank draft made payable to the order of
the Company. For further information, reference is made to the Warrant
Agreements which has been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus is a part.

         The Warrants pursuant to their terms are subject to adjustment upon the
occurrence of certain events including subdivisions or combinations of the Class
A Shares or Preferred Stock, as the case may be. The Company may at any time,
and from time to time, extend the exercise period of the Warrants, provided that
written notice of such extension is given to the Warrant holders prior to the
expiration date then in effect. Also, the Company may reduce the exercise price
of the Warrants for limited periods or through the end of the exercise period if
deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. Notice of any
reduction of the exercise price will be given to the Warrant holders. Prior to
any such extension or modification of the exercise price of such Warrants, the
Company may be required to amend the Registration Statement covering such
securities or to file a new registration statement.

Representative's Warrants


         In connection with the June 1994 Initial Public Offering, the Company
sold to the Representative's designees for nominal consideration, the
Representative's Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 45,000 Class A
Shares, 40,000 Class WA Warrants and 22,500 Class WB Warrants. The
Representative's Warrants are exercisable through June 22, 1999 at exercise
prices of $1.50, $0.12 and $0.12 as to the Class A Shares, Class WA Warrants and
Class WB Warrants, respectively, subject to certain adjustments. In October 1994
the Company repurchased Representative's Warrants to purchase 30,015 Class A
Shares, 40,000 Class WA Warrants and 22,500 Class WB Warrants from the holder
thereof. The holders of the remaining outstanding Representative's Warrants have
the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of the securities, if
any, without assuming the risk of ownership, with a resulting dilution in the
interest of other shareholders. The Company may find it more difficult to raise
additional equity capital if it should be needed for the business of the Company
while the Representative's Warrants are outstanding. At any time at which the
holder thereof might be expected to exercise them, the Company would probably be
able to obtain additional capital on terms more favorable than those provided by
the Representative's Warrants. See "Risk Factors."

         In connection with the Preferred Stock offering in September 1995, the
Company sold to VTR, Underwriters Warrants, for an aggregate purchase price of
$20.00, entitling the Holders to purchase 40,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock and 20,000 Class WC Warrants. These Warrants shall not be exercisable
until September 17, 1996. Such Warrants shall be exercisable for a period of
four years commencing September 17, 1996. The exercise price for each Warrant to
purchase Series A Preferred Stock shall be $6.00 per share, and the exercise
price to purchase WC Warrants is $.06 each. The Company has agreed that, while
the VTR Warrants are outstanding, it will not enter into any merger or
reorganize or to take any other action which would terminate the VTR Warrants.
The Warrants contain anti-dilution adjustment provisions.

Business Combination Provisions

         The Company is subject to a Delaware statute ("Section 203") regulating
"business combinations," defined to include a broad range of transactions
between Delaware corporations and "interested stockholders," defined as persons
who have acquired at least 15% of a corporation's outstanding voting stock.
Under the law, a corporation which is subject to Section 203 may not engage in
any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three
years from the date such person became an interested stockholder unless certain
conditions are satisfied. Section 203 contains provisions enabling a corporation
to avoid the statute's restrictions.

Anti-Takeover Measures

         The Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws contain
provisions that could discourage potential takeover attempts and prevent
shareholders from changing the Company's management. The existence of such
anti-takeover provisions could, among other things; (1) result in the Company
being less attractive to a potential acquirer and (2) result in shareholders
receiving less for their shares than otherwise might be available in the event
of a take-over attempt. The By-Laws provide that certain vacancies on the Board
of Directors shall be filled by a majority of the remaining Directors then in

office.

         In addition, the Company's By-Laws limit the ability to call a special
meeting of shareholders to the president or any executive vice president upon
the request in writing of two-thirds of the Board of Directors or upon the
written request of shareholders of the Company owning two-thirds of each class
of stock issued and

                                       66

<PAGE>

outstanding and entitled to vote. The By-Laws also provide that no proposal by a
shareholder shall be presented for vote at a special or annual meeting of
shareholders unless such shareholder, not later than the close of business on
the fifth day following the date on which notice of the meeting is first given
to shareholders, shall provide the Board of Directors or the secretary of the
Company with written notice of intention to present a proposal for action at the
forthcoming meeting of shareholders, which notice shall include the name and
address of such shareholder, the number of voting securities held of record and
held beneficially, the text of the proposal to be presented at the meeting and a
statement in support of the proposal. Any shareholder may make any other proper
proposal at an annual or special meeting of shareholders and the same may be
discussed and considered, but unless stated in writing and filed with the Board
of Directors or the secretary prior to the date set forth hereinabove, such
proposal shall be laid over for action at an adjourned, special or annual
meeting of the shareholders taking place 60 days or more thereafter. This
provision shall not prevent the consideration and approval or disapproval at the
annual meeting of reports of officers, directors, and committees; but in
connection with such reports, no new business shall be acted upon at such annual
meeting unless stated and filed as described above.

Transfer and Warrant Agent

         The Transfer Agent for the Class A and Class B Common Stock, the Series
A Preferred Stock, and the Warrant Agent for all classes of Warrants is American
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York.

Registration Rights

         The holders of the remaining Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants
have demand and piggy-back registration rights with respect to the
Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants and the securities underlying the
Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants for a period of five years. Any
exercise of such registration rights may result in dilution in the interest of
the Company's shareholders, hinder efforts by the Company to arrange future
financings of the Company and/or have an adverse effect on the market price of
the Company's Class A Shares and/or Warrants.

                         AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

   
         Prior to the Initial Public Offering, there existed no public trading
market for any of the Company's securities. In connection with the Initial
Public Offering, the Company applied for and was granted inclusion of its
securities for quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Class A Shares and
the Class WA Warrants commenced quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market on June
23, 1994 under the symbols "INTXA and INTXW", respectively, and the Class WB
Warrants commenced quotation on June 24, 1994 under the symbol "INTXZ." On
September 18, 1995, the Company's Series A Preferred Shares and Class WC
Warrants commenced quotation under the symbols "INTXP" and "INTXL" respectively.
While the Company's securities are currently listed for quotation on The Nasdaq
SmallCap Market, there can be no assurance given that the Company will be able
to satisfy the requirements for continued quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap
Market or that such quotation will otherwise continue; nor can there be any
assurance given that any market for the Company's securities that has developed
since completion of the Initial Public Offering or the Preferred Stock Offering
will continue or be sustained. See "Risk Factors - No Assurance of Public Market
or Continued Nasdaq Listing."
    

   
         The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the average

         As of the date of this filing, there were approximately 1,111
beneficial owners of Class A Shares and three beneficial owners of Class B
Shares. At this date, there were 4,556,091 Class A Shares, 2,039,500 Class B
Shares, 3,055,588 Class WA Warrants, 845,150 Class WB Warrants, 1,058,860 Series

in the Company's business operations, and in the expansion of its business. In
February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors declared a stock dividend
equivalent to $0.25 per share to its Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 23,
1996 (the record date.) Payment was made on March 1, 1996 by the issuance of
0.10231 of a share of the Company's Class A Common Stock for each share of
Series A Preferred Stock held of record on the record date. Accordingly, 55,247
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock was issued for this purpose.
Retained earnings was charged $165,741 in March 1996 in conjunction with the
issuance of these shares. On September 17, 1996, the Company issued a press
release announcing that it will postpone for approximately one month the Record
Date for the dividend payable on its Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock. As of the date of this filing, dividends relating to the
Company's Series A Preferred Shares are in arrears for September 1996 and March
1997. See "Risk Factors - Lack of Dividends."

                         SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

   
         As of the date of this filing, there are 4,556,091 Class A Shares
outstanding, 2,039,500 Class B Shares outstanding, and 1,058,860 Series A
Preferred Shares outstanding. All except 1,270,000 of such Class A Shares are

presently fully tradeable without restriction or further registration under the
Securities Act, except that any such shares owned by affiliates of the Company
will be subject to the limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As of
the date of this filing, Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer owns 519,750 shares of the Company's Class B Common shares,
and Ted Stevens, a former Director, owns 269,750 of such Class B shares, and
Michael Levine, Esq. as Escrow Agent owns 1,250,000 of such Class B shares. (See
"Legal Proceedings".) These holdings comprise all of the Company's outstanding
Class B Common shares as of the date of this filing. Pursuant to agreements with
the Company's investment banking firm, and in connection with the Company's
September 18, 1995 offering of preferred stock and warrants, the outstanding
Class B shares may not be sold or otherwise disposed before March 17, 1997
without the prior consent of the Company's investment banking firm. See "Certain
Transactions." In the event any shares not currently salable become salable by
means of registration, exemption from registration or eligibility for sale under
Rule 144 and the holders of such shares elect to sell such shares in the public
market, there may be a negative effect on the market price of the Company's
securities and on the ability of the Company to obtain additional equity
financing.
    

   
         In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated), including persons who may be deemed to be
"affiliates" of the Company as that term is defined under the Securities Act, is
entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of restricted shares
beneficially owned for at least one year that does not exceed the greater of (i)
one percent of the then outstanding Class A Shares (45,561 Class A Shares as of
the date hereof) or (ii) the average weekly trading volume in the Class A Shares
during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale. Sales under Rule 144 are
also subject to certain requirements as to the manner of sale, notice and the
availability of current public information about the Company. However, a person
who is not an affiliate and who has beneficially owned such shares for at least
two years is entitled to sell such shares without regard to the volume or other
resale requirements.
    

         The Company has granted to the holders of the Representative's Warrants
and VTR Warrants the right, subject to certain terms and conditions, to register
at the Company's expense at the holder's demand, all or any part of such
Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants or any securities underlying such
Representative's Warrants and VTR Warrants under the Securities Act or in
connection with registrations of any securities by the Company.

         The Company also has 3,055,588 Class WA Warrants 845,150 Class WB
Warrants, and 2,270,000 Class WC Warrants outstanding. The outstanding Class WA
Warrants are exercisable to purchase 3,055,588 Class A Shares and 3,055,588
Class WB Warrants which Class WB Warrants are exercisable to purchase an
additional 3,055,588 Class A Shares and the outstanding Class WB Warrants are
exercisable to purchase 845,150 Class A Shares. On July 19, 1996, the Company's
Registration Statement enabling the exercise of Class WA and Class WB Warrants
became effective.

         No predictions can be made of the effect, if any, that sales of any

class of the Company's Shares or the availability thereof for sale will have on
the market price of such securities prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless,
the foregoing could adversely affect prevailing market prices.

                    PLAN OF DISTRIBUTIONPLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

         The securities offered hereby may be sold from time to time directly by
the Selling Securityholders. Alternatively, the Selling Securityholders may from
time to time offer such securities through underwriters, dealers or agents. The
distribution of securities by the Selling Securityholders may be effected in one
or more transactions that may take place on the over-the-counter market,
including ordinary broker's transactions, privately-negotiated transactions or
through sales to one or more broker-dealers for resale of such shares as

principals, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or
specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the Selling
Securityholders in connection with such sales of securities. The securities
offered by the Selling Securityholders may be sold by one or more of the
following methods, without limitations: (a) a block trade in which a broker or
dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and
resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (b)
purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer
for its account pursuant to this Prospectus; (c) ordinary brokerage transactions
and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers, and (d) face-to-face
transactions between sellers and purchasers without a broker-dealer. In
effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the Selling Securityholders may
arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. The Selling Securityholders
and intermediaries through whom such securities are sold may be deemed
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Act with respect to the securities
offered, and any profits realized or commissions received may be deemed
underwriting compensation.

         At the time a particular offer of securities is made by or on behalf of
the Selling Securityholders, to the extent required, a Prospectus will be
distributed which will set forth the number of shares being offered and the
terms of the Offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers
or agents, if any, the purchase price paid by any underwriter for sales
purchased from the Selling Securityholders and any discounts, commissions or
concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers and the proposed selling
price to the public.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company
without audit, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
All adjustments (of normal recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of 
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
period have been included. The results of operations for the three and six 
months ended December 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of those to 
be expected for the entire year. The Company, for the three and six months 
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, used the gross profit method to value 
inventory.
    

2. ACQUISITIONS AND STRATEGIC ALLIANCES

                                      F-6

<PAGE>

   
Part of the Company's long-term plan for growth includes either the acquisition
of or entering into strategic alliances with unrelated companies in the
decorative accessories industry to maximize market potential. For this purpose,
pursuant to a March 3, l996 agreement relating to the capitalization of Decor
Group, Inc., ("Decor"), Decor issued to the Company 250,000 shares of its Series
A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock and an option to purchase 10,000,000
shares of its Series B Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Option
Shares") in exchange for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000 shares of
its Class A Common stock and 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible
Preferred stock and a guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness should such
indebtedness become necessary.  (The Decor securities are adjusted to reflect a
1-for-two reverse split effected by Decor in October 1996.) Also, the Company
exercised its option to purchase the Option Shares in September 1996, for total
cash consideration of $2,000. Concurrent with the exercise of this option, the
Company executed a Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement") to vest the power
to vote the Option Shares in a Voting Trust (the "Voting Trust"). The Voting 
Agreement will expire on December 31, 1997. The Voting Trust comprises three
individuals: the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer (and also the
Chairman of the Board of Decor), and two Directors of Decor who are otherwise
unrelated to the Company. As part of the Company's investment in Decor, during
the months of August and September 1996, the Company purchased 54,934 shares of
Decor's Series C Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock at a cost of $824,000.
In the formation of Decor, the Company's intention was to create an affiliate
with a corporate identity clearly separate and distinct from that of the
Company. Decor was organized for the purpose of acquiring the business
operations of unrelated companies. On November 12, 1996, (the "Effective 
Date") a public offering by Decor of certain of its securities was declared 
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Subsequent to the

effective date of Decor's initial public  offering, the Company owned 
approximately 79.6% of the total voting stock of Decor.  
    

   
As of December 31, 1996, the holding in Decor is recorded on the Company's
financial statements at the market value on November 12, 1996, the "Measurement
Date" of the Company's trading securities previously transferred to Decor during
March 1996. In December 1996, Decor declared and issued a dividend on its common
stock payable in the form of two (2) shares of common stock for each one (1)
share of common stock held as of the record date of December 16, 1996. Each
share of Decor's Series A and Series C Preferred stock are convertible into
three (3) shares of Decor's common stock effective December 16, 1996. During
February 1997, the Company sold its entire holdings of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock to an independent investor. Assuming conversion by the
subsequent holder to common stock, the Company will own approximately 77.5% of
the total voting stock of Decor subsequent to such sale and conversion.
    

   
In May 1996, the Company entered into a two year Management Services
Agreement with Decor whereby the Company will advise Decor on the
manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution of Decor's products as well as
providing Decor with accounting and administrative services and advice on
strategic planning of joint ventures, acquisitions, and other long term
initiatives. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company will be paid on an annual
basis the greater of (1) $75,000 or (2) 1.5% of excess cashflow as defined in
the agreement. The Company and Decor amended this agreement to increase this
payment to $90,000 per annum. Additional transfers of funds from Decor to the
Company will be subject to the attainment by Decor of excess cash flow totaling
$4,000,000 per year through December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1996, the Company
has accrued approximately $57,000 of fees pursuant to this agreement.
    

   
      Decor entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with
Artisan House, Inc. ("Artisan House") to purchase substantially all of the
operating assets, and assume certain liabilities of Artisan House for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,526,400, subject to certain adjustments. Decor
completed the Artisan House acquisition on November 18, 1996. Artisan House,
located in Los Angeles, California and founded in 1964, is engaged in the
design, manufacturing, and marketing of metal wall, table and freestanding
sculptures. Management believes that Artisan House's products  bridge the gap
between high priced gallery art and mass produced decorative pieces. Artisan
House products retail from approximately $100 to over $400. The primary goal of
Artisan House is to supply a broad spectrum of design driven sculpture and
decorative accessories at moderate prices. 
    

   
      Pursuant to a March 31, 1996 agreement relating to the capitalization of
Decor, Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
purchased and was issued certain shares of the Common Stock of Decor. As of 
December 31, 1996, Ms. Munn was issued 300,000 shares of the outstanding

common shares of Decor, adjusted to reflect a 1-for-2 reverse split effected 
by Decor in October 1996, and a stock dividend of two (2) common shares for 
each common share owned as of December 16, 1996.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
    
The litigation relating to the termination of the 1995 employment agreement
between Ann Stevens and the Company has been settled by the execution of an
employment severance agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the
Company paid Ms. Stevens $63,000 for accrued and unpaid compensation upon
execution of the Agreement. Subsequently, for a period of seven years, the
Company will make bi-weekly payments to Ms. Stevens to total $72,000 for the
first year, $70,000 for each of the next three years, and $50,000 for each of
the final three years. As additional compensation, the Company will pay Ms.
Stevens for reimbursement of certain expenses, $50,000 in various installments
during the four months ending December 1996. The Company also entered into a
non-compete agreement with Ms. Stevens for which the Company will make bi-weeky
payments to Ms. Stevens to total $25,000 per year for seven years, plus
automobile and insurance costs for five years. As of June 30, 1996, the Company
issued to Ms. Stevens

                                     F-8

<PAGE>

   
50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Shares, which were previously
commited to Ms. Stevens pursuant to her 1995 employment agreement. This filing
is meant, is addition to other purposes, to register these 50,000 Class A Common
Shares. As of June 30, 1996, the Company issued 1,250,000 shares of its Class B
Common Shares.  As of June 30, 1996, the Company issued 1,250,000 shares of its
Class B Common Shares (the "Escrow Shares") to Michael Levine, Esq., attorney of
Ms. Stevens, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"). The Escrow Agent shall
abstain from voting the Escrow Shares for any purpose, except in the event of
either the failure by the Company to adhere to the payment provisions noted
above or the financial insolvency of the Company. If either event occurs, Ms.
Stevens will be in a position to elect replacement Directors. Once the payment
provisions in the severance and non-compete agreements are satisfied, the Escrow
Agent shall return the Escrow Shares to the Company.
    

   
On February 15 1996, the Company's Board of Directors agreed in principle to
enter into a four-year employment agreement between the Company and its
President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement provide an annual base
salary of $150,000, with annual increases of 10%. Such increases will be subject
to the attainment of profitable results of operations by the Company. In
addition, the agreement will grant the President and Chief Executive Officer an

option to purchase at any time 150,000 shares of the Company's Series A, 10%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock at a price of $2.50 per share. The
exercise of this option, as well as any subsequent conversion to the Company's
Class A Common Stock, will require the prior consent of the Company's investment
banking firm. The agreement will also contain a "non-compete" clause and provide
the President and Chief Executive Officer with the use of an automobile. As of
the date of this filing, the document for this agreement has not been finalized
or executed. Presently, the President and Chief Executive Officer draws an 
annual salary of $150,000 and has the use of an automobile provided by the 
Company.
    
   
In August 1995 the Company entered into a four year employment agreement with
Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President, with an annual salary of $150,000.
In addition, on or about September 30, 1995, the agreement provides for Ms.
Stevens to receive a one time payment of either, at the Company's option,
$50,000 or 50,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to this agreement,
Ms. Stevens, who is the sister of Max Munn, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, was also entitled to receive stock options, stock
bonuses and other equity instruments in an amount equal to that received by Max
Munn or members of his immediate family. In June 1996, the Company executed an
employment severance agreement with Ms. Stevens which terminated the provisions
of the August 1995 employment agreement. The employment severance agreement
stipulated that the Company will pay to Ms. Stevens an initial payment of
$63,000, and make various periodic payments over seven years. In addition, the
Company agreed to issue to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A
Common Shares. Such shares were issued on July 25, 1996 and included in a
registration statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on January 14, 1997.  As of the date of this
filing, this registration statement has not been declared effective by the
Commission. (See "Legal Proceedings.")

On May 8, 1995, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Donald
Feldman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing of the Company, as well as a
member of its Board of Directors.  The Agreement is for a term of four years
beginning June 1995 and may be terminated by the Company after the first year
with payment of 80% of the employee's salary, reduced by the employee's other
income.  The Agreement provides that the Vice President of Sales and Marketing
will be employed at a base salary of $117,500 plus a sales commission structure
based on increases in net sales for the Company and for  Italia.  Mr. Feldman
will be granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company's Class A
Common Stock for every full year under the employment agreement at a price of
$2.50 per share.  On January 31, 1997, Mr. Feldman resigned from the Company's
Board of Directors to devote his time exclusively to the business activities of
Decor Group, Inc.  On February 28, 1997, Mr. Feldman's employment with Decor was
terminated, due to the need for a restructuring of the sales and marketing
organization.  The Company and Decor are currently negotiating terms of
separation with Mr. Feldman.  It is not anticipated that his termination will
result in any significant charges against earnings.

    

   
On April 1, 1995, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Morris
Munn, father of Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
under which he will provide the Company with: design and fabrication of new
molds for sculpture; recommend, and implement improvements in antiquing,
woodworking, gilding and carving processes; and attend trade shows for frame
making and mold making. Fees under the agreement are payable at $54,000 per
annum for one year renewable at the Company's option. On June 30, 1996, Morris
Munn's Consulting Agreement was extended for five (5) years. Pursuant to the
terms of this new agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Morris Munn an
option to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Preferred Shares at a
net exercise price of $2.25 per share. The Preferred Shares issuable upon the
exercise of the Option were registered for sale to the public under a
Registration Statement in Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on July 3, 1996. The Option was fully exercised during July to
September 1996 generating net proceeds to the Company totaling $787,500.
(See "Liquidity and Capital Resources.") In addition, the new agreement
provides for bi-weekly payments to Morris Munn totaling $54,000 per year for
five years. In exchange, Morris Munn has agreed to assist the Company with
marketing, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and other strategic
initiatives. In conjunction with the issuance of the Option, the Company
recorded charges against earnings of $87,500 at June 30, 1996.
    

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company has no material commitments
for capital expenditures. In order to fund growth over the long term, the
Company anticipates possible future issuance of its securities resulting in
further dilution to its securityholders.

Disclosure of the Company's current legal matters are reflected at Part II, Item
1. - Legal Proceedings.

4. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
    

   
In August 1995, the Company agreed to issue, at a future date, 60,000 Class A
Common shares in settlement of all current and future liabilities under a
two-year Marketing and Organizational Agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") with
a consulting firm dated January 4, 1994. The Company's Board of Directors
approved the issuance of such shares in November 1995. In conjunction with the
issuance of these shares, approximately $105,000 of charges against earnings
were recorded during the year ended June 30, 1996. On January 14, 1997, these
shares were registered by the Company with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form S-8.
    


   
In September 1995, the Company issued 460,000 shares of Series A, 10% Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") and 230,000 Redeemable Class WC
Warrants ("Warrants") to purchase Preferred Stock at the exercise price of
$5.50 per share. The net proceeds from this Offering were approximately
$1,633,000, including over-allotments. Each share of Preferred Stock is
convertible, commencing one year from the date of issue, subject to adjustment,
into three shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company. As of the date of this
filing, independent holders of 81,140 shares of Preferred Stock have converted
such shares into 243,420 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. 
    

   
In September 1995, the Company lowered the exercise price of the Company's Class
WA Warrant to $1.50 per share and arranged to place 180,000 shares of the
Company's Class A shares which were previously sold pursuant to a "Regulation S"
private placement into escrow. These shares were sold in January 1996 to
unrelated parties pursuant to a restructuring of a note payable by the Cornpany
to the holder of these shares as discussed below. On July 16, 1996, the Company
filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to
register the Class WA Warrants and underlying Common A Shares. The Commission
declared this Registration Statement effective on July 19, 1996. Through the
date of this filing, 704,412 of the Company's Class WA Warrants were exercised
at $l.50 per warrant, generating proceeds to the Company totaling $1,056,618. Of
these proceeds, $811,500 was used to purchase 54,100 shares (adjusted for a
1-for-2 reverse split effected in October 1996) of Decor Group, Inc.'s Series C
Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock. The balance of the proceeds was
retained by the Company for working capital needs, and for the provision of
additional loans to Decor. At December 31, 1996, the balance of loans to Decor
totals $50,238.
    

   
In December 1995, pursuant to the terms of a promissory note, the holder of such
note converted the note into 80,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Also in December
1995, and pursuant to the terms of another promissory note, 35,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock were issued to the lender. Approximately $25,000
was charged against earnings during the quarter ended December 1995 in
conjunction with the issuance of these shares.
    


                                     F-11

<PAGE>

   
In January 1996, the Company's Board of Directors elected to lower the exercise
price of the Company's Class WB Warrant to $2.00 per Class A Common share,
subject to the filing and effectiveness of a Registration Statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Such Registration Statement was filed with
the Commission on July 16, 1996 and declared effective on July 19, 1996. Through
the date of this filing, 118,012 of the Company's Class WB Warrants were
exercised at an exercise price of $2.00 per option generating proceeds to the

Company of $236,024. These proceeds were used by the Company to support working
capital needs and for the provision of loans to Decor Group, Inc.
    

   
In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors declared a stock dividend
equiva1ent to $0.25 per share to its Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 23,
1996 (the record date.) Payment was made on March 1, 1996 by the issuance of
0.10231 of a share of the Company's Class A Common Stock for each share of
Series A Preferred Stock held of record on the record date. Accordingly, 55,247
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock was issued for this purpose.
Retained earnings was charged $165,741 in March 1996 in conjunction with the
issuance of these shares. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not
declared or established a record date for a dividend for its Series A 10%
Cummulative Convertible Preferred Stock for September 1996. The Company expects
to declare a stock dividend equivalent to $.50 per share to its Series A 10%
Cummulative Convertible Preferred Stockholders. The record date will be
determined in February 1997, and is expected to allow for a payment date within
March 1997. This dividend, when declared and paid, will satisfy the Company's
obligation to pay its semi-annual cumulative dividend on its Series A 10%
Cummulative Preferred Stock for September 1996, which has not yet been paid, and
for March 1997.
    

   
In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance to Sol
Munn of 150,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, in consideration
for past consulting services provided.  This filing is meant, among other
purposes, to register these 150,000 Class A Common Shares. In conjunction with
the issuance of these shares, approximately $54,000 of charges were recorded
against earnings during the year ended June 30, 1996. 
    

   
In April 1996, the Company's investment banking firm arranged for the private
placement of 175,000 shares of the Company's Common A Stock and 50,000 shares
of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. These shares, all bearing a
restrictive legend, were issued on April 24, 1996 to various independent
investors (the "Investors") generating gross proceeds of $431,251.
    

The Company realized net proceeds of $310,609 which was used to pay certain
outstanding liabilities. Commencing thirty (30) days following the date of the
close of the private placement, any of the Investors had the right to demand in
writing (the "Demand Notice") that the Company file a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") which shall cover
the shares and allow the Investor to sell the shares to the public. Within
fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Demand Notice, the Company is
required to file such registration statement and use its best 

                                     F-12

<PAGE>


   
efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the Commission
and such state securities regulators as reasonably requested by the Investor.
This filing is meant, among other purposes, to register these 175,000 Shares of
Class A Common Stock and 50,000 Shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
    

   
On April 4, 1996 the Company's Board of Directors resolved to issue 250,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to Laurie Munn, wife of the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. This issuance is in
consideration for a down payment of $250, Ms. Munn's 6.6% note to the Company
providing for principal of $437,500 to be paid to the Company in five equal
annual installments of $105,561.90, and Ms. Munn's guarantee and pledge of her
assets for certain Company debt. The shares were issued to Ms. Munn on April 8,
1996. Ms. Munn has executed a Promissory Note and Security Agreement in
conjunction with the issuance of these shares. The Company obtained an appraisal
at that time to determine the fair market values of this transaction.
    
   
Effective June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with
Morris Munn, father of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, in
exchange for certain services. As part of this agreement, over the subsequent
five-years, the Company will pay Mr. Munn $54,000 per annum in equal bi-weekly
installments, and issue to Mr. Munn options to purchase up to 350,000 shares of
the Company's Series A Preferred stock. These options were fully exercised
during July to September 1996, generating net proceeds to the Company totaling
$787,500. Of these proceeds, approximately $127,000 was used pursuant to the
Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann Stevens, a former Company executive
(See "Legal Proceedings."), and $12,500 was used to purchase 834 shares
(adjusted for a l-for-2 reverse split effected in October 1996) of Decor Group,
Inc.'s Series C Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock. The balance of
proceeds was retained by the Company to support working capital needs. In
conjunction with the issuance of the options to Mr. Munn, the Company recorded
charges against earnings totaling $87,500 at June 30, 1996.
    
   
Pursuant to the Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann Stevens (the
"Settlement"), a former executive of the Company, the Company issued to Ms.
Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. This filing is
meant, among other purposes, to register these 50,000 shares of Class A Common
Stock. Also pursuant to the Settlement, the Company issued to Michael Levine
as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") 1,250,000 unregistered shares of
the Company's Class B Common shares (the "Escrow Shares".) The Escrow Shares
shall not be voted by the Escrow Agent, unless the Company defaults on its
obligations under the agreement. Upon satisfaction of such obligations, the
Escrow Shares shall he returned by the Escrow Agent to the Company. (See
"Legal Procedings"). In conjunction with the issuance of the Company's shares
to Ms. Stevens, the Company recorded charges against earnings totaling
$7l,400 at June 30, 1996.
    
   
During September 1996, pursuant to the Company's Director Stock Option Plan, the

Company issued: 10,000 shares of its Class A Common shares to Roger Lourie, an
outside director of the Company, and 10,000 shares of its Class A Common shares
to various
    

                                     F-13

<PAGE>

   
individuals named by Richard Josephberg, also an outside director of
the Company. These shares bear a restrictive legend. Pursuant to the issuance of
these shares, $15,000 was charged against earnings at December 31, 1996.
    
   
Other than services provided by the Company's investment banking firm, no
services have been provided at the Company's direction by any consultant or
advisor with respect to the issuance or sale of the Company's equity securities.
    
   
5. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
    
   
On October 24, 1996, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq Stock
Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") that the Company's capital and surplus at June 30, 1996
was less than $1,000,000, thereby failing to satisfy a requirement for continued
listing of its securities on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Company was subject
to delisting effective November 17, 1996 if the Company did not demonstrate that
it currently meets all Nasdaq SmallCap Market listing criteria. On November 13,
1996, the Company was advised by Nasdaq that the Company currently meets
Nasdaq SmallCap Market listing criteria.
    
   
Because of declining revenues and high operating costs, on December 16, 1996,
the Board of Directors decided to discontinue and dissolve Italia. On December
27, 1996, a Notice of Public Auction was distributed by Italia, advising all
interested parties that a public auction of all the assets of Italia consisting
of molds, equipment, models, and inventory listed in a Security Agreement
entered into between Italia, as debtor, and United Credit Corporation, as
secured party, was to occur, and there being due to the secured party
approximately $1,094,028 plus legal fees and expenses of the sale. The auction
took place on January 10, 1997 and the Company was the successful bidder,
thereby acquiring all of the assets of Italia in consideration for a payment of
$2,000 and the assumption by the Company of the liabilities of Italia to United
Credit Corp., which as of March 31, 1997 totalled approximately $506,000. Since
the financial statements of Italia are consolidated into those of the Company,
Italia's liabilities have already been reflected on the Company's consolidated
financial statements. At the date of this filing, the Company has not made a
determination of the realizability of assets acquired pursuant to this auction.
Such evaluation will take place during the subsequent period. Should any charge
against earnings be accordingly necessary, they will be recorded at the time
such charge is determined.
    
   

As part of its efforts to refinance business activities, during the month of
February 1997, the Company obtained $600,000 of new debt financing at an annual

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors of
Interiors, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Interiors, Inc.
(a Delaware corporation) (known formerly as A.P.F. Holdings, Inc., a New York
corporation) and subsidiary as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity
(deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30,
1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Interiors, Inc. and subsidiary
as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the results of operations and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 1996, 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 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations,
has a working capital and a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt
about is ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to
these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995


1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

Business Activity

The Company has experienced continuing operating losses and has a working
capital and net capital deficiency as of and for the year ended June 30, 1996.
As a result, the Company has taken certain significant steps to reposition
itself for growth and profitability in subsequent periods. These steps, although
necessary, led to significant charges against earnings during the year ended
June 30, 1996. A summary of the major steps follows:
   
o  The Company's discontinuation of its catalog operations (See "Description of
   Business") led to charges against earnings totaling $2,936,000, including
   losses from discontinued operations of $789,000, during the year ended June
   30, 1996. Major items in this charge are settlement of significant related
   party lawsuits requiring charges against earnings aggregating $431,000;
   reserves against catalog inventory of $945,000 and reserves against other
   catalog assets of $354,000, reserves for current period losses from
   discontinued operations after the measurement date of March 31, 1996 of
   $276,000, reserves for stock options of $60,000, reserves for additional
   compensation expense $29,000, and miscellaneous reserves of $52,000. The
   Company believes that charges against earnings totaling $2,936,000 will be
   sufficient to cover potential losses incurred during the subsequent period.
    
o  The Company has included in Selling, General and Administrative expenses
   $140,000 for certain non-cash issuances of stock for services.

o  The Company incurred increased financing charges aggregating $180,000 in

   connection with extinguishment of certain debt.

The Company's management believes that these charges were necessary and will set
the stage for growth and profitability in subsequent periods. Management,
however, believes cash flows from operations may not be sufficient to support
future operations. Accordingly, the Company has identified action steps aimed at
improving cash flows and profitability. Such actions include a major investment
in Decor Group, Inc., an exclusive licensing agreement, staff reductions and
discontinuance of its catalog. (See Notes 3 & 4)

The Company is currently renegotiating its lease with the landlord for its
current facility. In addition the company is currently negotiating a collective
bargaining agreement covering substantially all its employees. Although
management believes that the outcome of these negotiations will not have a
material impact on its operation over the next year, there can be no assurance
that such deliberations will result in arrangements consistent with those
discussed elsewhere.

Although the Company believes that these initiatives will lead to improved
financial results, and positive cash flows no assurances can be provided that
this will be the case.

Organization

Interiors, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company" or "Interiors" known formally as
A.P.F. Holdings, Inc. or "A.P.F.") was incorporated pursuant to the laws of
Delaware in February 1994. A.P.F. was incorporated pursuant to the laws of New
York in October 1990. A.P.F. was incorporated in order to reincorporate in the
State of Delaware. Effective March 1994, A.P.F. merged with and into the
Company. In October 1994, the Company purchased "Ceramic Production Corp." and
"Murano Crystal" to form a wholly-owned subsidiary, "Italia Collection, Inc."
("Italia").
   
Alter giving effect to the discontinuance of the Catalog operation, the Company
has two operating divisions: 1) the Custom Framing Division which is engaged in
the manufacture of antique and contemporary picture frames for museums, art
galleries, designers, collectors, and frame retailers; and 2) the Wholesale
Division, which manufactures and markets a line of high-end traditional and
contemporary mirrors through upscale retail furniture and department stores. The
Wholesale Division is operated through a wholly owned subsidiary which
manufactures and markets ceramic vases and bowls, sculpture and lamps to upscale
furniture stores, furniture galleries, department stores, catalog and other
decorative accessory retailers. The majority of the Company's sales are
domestic. Sales to the largest customers totaled $801,000 and $652,000, or 15%
and 12% of net sales respectively, for the year ended June 30, 1996. Accounts
receivable to these customers totaled $119,000 as of June 30, 1996.
    
   
The Company from time to time entered into transactions with related parties
(See Note 11). To the extent that the Company is unable to attract and retain

qualified independent persons to serve on its board of directors, conflicts of
interest may arise due to these relationships.
    
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, ("Italia Collection, Inc."). All intercompany
transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized at the time custom work, wholesale, or catalog merchandise
is shipped or acceptance is acknowledged by the customer. Payments received for
merchandise not yet shipped or accepted are reflected within prepaid sales and
customer deposits, a current liability.

Prepaid Catalog Costs

Prepaid catalog costs consist primarily of production and mailing costs, which
are deferred and amortized over the period of expected revenue stream (estimated
based upon historical results for similar catalogs and circulation levels) of
the related catalog from the date the catalog is mailed, not exceeding one year.
The prepaid catalog asset was fully written off in the amount of $486,000, as
part of the discontinuance of the Catalog Division. Catalog costs expensed are
included in the loss from discontinued operations for the years ended June 30,
1996 and 1995 in the amount of $529,000 and $1,106,000, respectively.

Inventories
   
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using
the first-in, first-out method. Finished goods consist of those items available
for shipping through the Wholesale Division.
    

                                      F-22

<PAGE>

   
Bartered inventory acquired is valued at the original cost of the inventory to
the Company, which is determined to be the lower of cost or market. If the
Company determines that historical inventory cost exceeds the estimated proceeds
realizable upon sale of such inventory, it would record a reserve for writedown
to market. As of June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company did not believe that such a
circumstance existed. Accordingly, for both periods no reserve for writedown to
market was recorded.
    
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost. The cost of additions and improvements
and the costs incurred in the construction of castings and the related master
molds are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed

in the period incurred. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment
is provided utilizing straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated
useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

                                                    Years
                                                    -----
            Machinery and equipment                 3 - 10
            Furniture and fixtures                  7 - 10

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining term of
the lease or the useful life of the improvement utilizing the straight-line
method.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this
method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of
"temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing
assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes have been provided for the
temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of
the Company's assets and liabilities (See Note 13).

Goodwill
   
In connection with the acquisition of Italia, amounts were paid in excess of the
fair market value of the assets acquired. These amounts have been recorded as
goodwill and are being amortized over 10 years. It is the Company's policy to
evaluate the life and amount of goodwill annually. Such evaluations are based on
current market conditions and expected future cash flows. In December 1996, the
Company dissolved Italia. Goodwill recorded upon acquisition of Italia will
therefore no longer have a useful life. Thus, during the quarter ended June 30,
1997, the Company will write off remaining goodwill of approximately $100,000.
    
Use of Estimates in Preparation of the Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires of 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 changes in these estimates.

Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock

Net loss per share of common stock was computed based on the weighted average
number of Class A and Class B shares outstanding. For the two years in the
period ended June 30, 1996, no common stock equivalents were included in the
computation since the effect would be antidilutive.


Fourth Quarter Adjustments
   
The Company recorded approximately $3,654,000 in losses during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1996. The losses were primarily attributable to the
discontinuance of the Catalog Division ($1,412,000), the write down of inventory
based on the physical count ($1,093,000), and write-off of certain other assets
($79,200).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
    

   
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
No. 121 (SFAS 121) titled "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." SFAS 121, which is effective for
financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995,
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held
and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. Because the Company dissolved its Italia Collections Inc.
subsidiary in December 1996, certain assets such as goodwill will not be
recoverable. During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company will
evaluate the realizability of all Italia assets and record appropriate charges
against earnings at that date.
    

   
In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS 123 titled "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." SFAS 123, which is effective for transactions entered into in
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995, uses a fair value based method
of accounting for stock options and similar equity instruments as contrasted to
the intrinsic value based method of accounting for such instruments. The Company

believes that the effect against earnings of implementing SFAS 123 is not
material because all unexercised options have been granted prior to the
effective date of SFAS 123. Further, the exercise price of all options may not
be for less than the fair market value of the underlying Class A Common Stock at
the date of grant.
    

   
In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS 125 titled "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS 125,
which is effective for such transactions occurring after December 31, 1996.
Earlier application is not allowed. Because the Company dissolved its Italia
Collections Inc. subsidiary in December 1996, certain liabilities may be subject
to extinguishment. Such extinguishment will be recorded if and when the Company
is considered to be legally released from such liabilities.

3. DISCONTINUATION OF OPERATIONS OF INTERIORS CATALOG DIVISION

On March 31, 1996, the Board of Directors, decided to discontinue the Company's
catalog operations because of declining revenues and high operating costs. As a
result, a charge against earnings of approximately $2,200,000, was recorded at
June 30, 1996. For the year ended June 30, 1996, losses from the discontinued
catalog operations totaled $789,000. The Company plans to fully carry out its
plan to discontinue the catalog operation within one year from March 31, 1996.
As of June 30, 1996, the Company has assets and accrued expenses totaling
$319,000 and $410,000 respectively. The Company plans to wind down operations by
filling existing orders and possibly mailing one final catalog as a "close-out
sale" to liquidate inventory. The statement of operations for the year ended
June 30, 1995 has been restated as if the Company's catalog operations had been
discontinued at the beginning of year ended June 30, 1995.

The following is a detail of income from discontinued operations for the years
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995:

4. ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS AND STRATEGIC ALLIANCES


1996 Transactions


                                      F-25

<PAGE>

Part of the Company's long-term plan for growth includes either the acquisition
of or entering into strategic alliances with unrelated companies in the
decorative accessories industry to maximize market potential. For this purpose,
pursuant to a March 3, 1996 agreement relating to the capitalization of Decor
Group, Inc., ("Decor"), Decor issued to the Company 500,000 shares of its Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock and an option to purchase 20,000,000 shares of its
Series B Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Option Shares") in
exchange for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000 shares of its Class A
Common Stock and 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and
a guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness should such indebtedness become
necessary. Decor has entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement")
with Artisan House, Inc. ("Artisan House") to purchase substantially all of the
operating assets, and assume certain liabilities, of Artisan House for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,526,400, subject to certain adjustments. Decor
expects to close on the Agreement prior to, or contemporaneously with, its
public offering. Artisan House, located in Los Angeles, California and founded
in 1964, is engaged in the design, manufacturing, and marketing of metal wall,
table and freestanding sculptures. Management believes that Artisan House's
products bridge the gap between high priced gallery art and mass produced
decorative pieces. Artisan House products retail from approximately $100 to over
$400. The primary goal of Artisan House is to supply a broad spectrum of design
driven sculpture and decorative accessories at moderate prices. The measurement
date for the shares provided and received has not been determined at this time
because at the time of issuance there was no assurance that the transactions
contemplated by either Company (i.e., acquisition of Artisan by Decor, public
funding for Decor) could be executed. Accordingly, the shares issued and
received have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements at par
value. Upon completion of Decor's public offering and acquisition of Artisan,
the Company will establish its investment in Decor at the then fair market value
of the shares invested.
   
The Company exercised its option to purchase the Option Shares in September
1996, for total cash consideration of $2,000. Concurrent with the exercise of
this option, the Company executed a Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement") to
vest the power to vote the Option Shares in a Voting Trust (the "Voting Trust").
The Voting Agreement will expire on December 31, 1997. The Voting Trust shall
comprise three individuals; Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer (and also the Chairman of the Board of Decor), and two
Directors of Decor who are otherwise unrelated to the Company. The independent
directors are: Matthew L. Harriton, currently Chief Financial Officer of Embryo
Development Corporation, a company trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market that
specializes in developing and distributing medical devices, and Michael Lulkin,
currently general counsel for PDK Labs, Inc., a company trading on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market engaged in the manufacture of over-the-counter pharmaceuticals.
Conversion of the 500,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into
common stock would give the Company approximately 88.6% of the voting stock of

Decor as of the date of this filing. Decor is planning a public offering of
certain of its securities during October 1996. After this public offering is
effective, the Company will own approximately 86.6% of the total voting stock of
Decor. The holding in Decor will be recorded on the Company's financial
statements under the equity method of accounting until such time the Company
obtains unconditional and effective control of Decor, which is expected to occur
upon the expiration of the Voting Agreement.
    

As part of the Company's investment in Decor, during the months of August and
September 1996, the Company purchased 109,867 shares of Decor's Series C
Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock at a cost of $824,000. As of the date
of this filing, Decor has provided the Company with $50,000 of 8% demand loans.

Pursuant to a March 31, 1996 agreement relating to the capitalization of Decor,
Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
purchased and was issued certain shares of the Common Stock of Decor for $8,000
representing less than 1% of outstanding stock after Decor's proposed public
offering. Ms. Munn was issued 200,000 common shares of Decor.

The Company has executed a management agreement with Decor, whereby the Company
will provide management and administrative support for the companies acquired by
Decor. At June 30, 1996, approximately $19,000 of fees were accrued by the
Company for such services.

During March 1996, Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer, was issued 9 of the outstanding 100 Common shares of Lance
Acquisition Corp. ("LAC") which acquired the assets of The Lance Corporation
("Lance") a Massachusetts manufacturer and distributor of various products for
the giftware and collectibles marketplace. The Company and LAC entered into an
agreement whereby each entity will guarantee certain liabilities of the other.
As of June 30, 1996 the Company guaranteed $631,000 of LAC debt which was
collateralized by $971,000 of accounts receivable. Subsequently, LAC disposed of
its interest in Lance, and has finalized the terms of transition with the new
owners and existing secured creditors. LAC will be dissolved subsequent to June
30, 1996.

During April 1996, Italia moved its operations to the premises of The Lance
Acquisition Corporation (Lance). Italia occupied approximately 10,000 square
feet of space on a temporary basis. The Company is arranging for the sourcing of
Italia products from an established, third-party manufacturer. The Company
expects to fully complete such arrangements, and entirely vacate the premises of
The Lance Acquisition Corporation, during November 1996.

1995 Acquisition

   
In connection with the Company's plan to restructure its wholesale business, the
Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Italia acquired the business of two

privately held Florida-based companies. Murano and CPC, manufacture and market
upscale decorative ceramic accessories to the home furnishings industry through
a showroom in High Point, North Carolina and a network of sales representatives.
Closing on such acquisitions occurred on October 21, 1994. These acquisitions
were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Pursuant to these
acquisitions, the Company assumed liabilities in excess of assets acquired for
an amount of approximately $200,000 in consideration for all of the outstanding
stock of the acquired companies. Accordingly, the excess of costs over fair
value has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over 10 years on a
straight line basis. The Company also agreed to pay the seller on the basis of a
formula purchase price computed as a factor of future earnings from continuing
operations, subject to certain adjustments and offsets in cash and or Class A
Shares. This additional consideration will result in an additional element of
cost of the acquisition of Murano and CPC which will be recorded at the time
such payment is calculated. To date, no additional payments have been made in
connection with this transaction, as no amounts are considered to be due by the
Company under the original terms of the purchase agreement. The parties are
currently discussing the situation, and in the opinion of management, there will
not be any material adjustment to the Company's financial position or results of
operations as a result of the outcome of such discussions.
    
The Company's consolidated net loss for the year ended June 30, 1995 includes
approximately $144,000 of net income from the operations of Murano and CPC for
the period October 21, 1994 to June 30, 1995.

Had the Company acquired Murano and CPC as of July 1, 1994, the Company's net
loss for the year ended June 30, 1995 would have not been materially effected.

New Agreements

In September 1996, the Company has entered into an exclusive and worldwide
three-year licensing agreement, expiring September 1999, to represent the
artwork of James Rizzi on ceramics, mirrors, and other decorative accessories
manufactured by the Company. Mr. Rizzi is among the world's best-selling living
artists. The Company expects customer shipments to begin during December 1996.
The licensor will receive a license fee of 15% of net sales proceeds, plus up to
5% of product manufactured for distribution to certain art galleries and picture
framers.

                                                           ----------
                                                           $2,516,573
                                                           ----------

(a) In July 1994, The Company replaced its existing financing agreement with a
line of credit of up to $950,000 with a New York bank following the Company's
Initial Public Offering in June 1994. Such borrowings are based on trade
receivables and inventory. The borrowings under such line of credit are secured
by a lien on all personal property and fixtures of the Company and personally
guaranteed by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In March
1996 the Company has agreed with the bank to reduce the line of credit by
$10,000 per month. As of the date of this filing, the line of credit has been
reduced to $870,000. This line of credit bears interest at a rate of prime plus
1% (9.25% as of the date of this filing.) The Company is also seeking
alternative sources of financing to ultimately replace the current line of
credit, but there can be no assurance it will be able to do so.

(h) In May 1993, Murano and CPC secured Disaster loans from U.S. Small Business
Administration pursuant to promissory notes dated May 20, 1993 and May 21, 1993
in an aggregate amount of $ 339,300, which bears interest at a rate of 4% per
annum, were payable in equal monthly installments including principal and
interest and the balance of which would be due 23 years from the date of the
Notes. Such borrowings are secured by machinery and equipment and are personally
guaranteed by the former President and Vice President of Murano and CPC and
their spouses. On July 29, 1996 the Company received non-payment notification
from the U S. Small Business Administration requiring full payment with
interest. As a result of the nonpayment notification, the balance of the Note is
classified as current. The Company currently is renegotiating the terms of the
loan with the U.S. Small Business Administration.

(c) On October 16, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to restructure a
promissory note dated May 1995, with the principal amount of $500,000 bearing

interest at the rate of 18% per annum with the principal which was due and
payable in full on September 30, 1995 and a $150,000 note dated May 12, 1995,
bearing interest at the rate of 18% payable monthly with 135% of the principal
which was also due and payable in full on September 30, 1995 with a Nevis, BWI
Corporation. On October 16, 1995 the parties agreed the Company owed the lender,
including interest and monthly extension fees of approximately $155,000 through
December 15, 1995, an aggregate amount of approximately $805,000. Pursuant to
the new agreement, the Company paid $405,000 to the Nevis Corporation upon
acceptance of the agreement. The Company also delivered a Promissory Note in the
principal amount of approximately $400,000, in extension and replacement of the
remaining balance due and payable of $180,000 on or before December 15, 1995 and
$220,000 on July 31, 1996. The new agreement also stipulated that the lender
shall sell the 180,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, held in
escrow by the

                                      F-29

<PAGE>

lender, for $180,000 to an unaffiliated third party. The proceeds of such sale 
will be applied against the note. The stock sale took place during January 
1996. In addition, during December 1995, the Company issued to the lender 
35,000 unregistered shares of Class A Common Stock. Such shares shall be 
afforded a piggyback registration right for all registration statements filed by
the Company before July 31, 1996 and a one time demand registration right
commencing after July 31, 1996. Approximately $25,000 was charged against
earnings during the quarter ended December 31, 1995 in conjunction with the
issuance of these shares. The promissory note is also guaranteed by Max Munn,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The note is collateralized
by 600,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock owned by the Company's
Italia Collections Inc. subsidiary. The Company is currently renegotiating the
terms of the agreement with the lender to restructure payment terms of principal
and interest outstanding of $245,000. There can be no assurance that the Company
will successfully complete these discussions.

(d) On February 15, 1995, Italia Collection entered into a Financing Agreement
with a New York based secured lender whereby Italia Collection may borrow
pursuant to an asset-related formula. The agreement remains in effect as of the
date of this filing, and may be terminated by either party upon notice to the
other and payment of the commitment fee for the unexpired term of this
agreement. Although the Company is currently pursuing alternative financing
agreements, as of the date of this filing, no such arrangements have been
finalized. According to the current agreement, the lender, upon confirmation of
shipments, will advance Italia Collection 70% of the receivable. Upon collection
of the receivable, the lender remits the balance of 30%. Interest is calculated
on the daily cash balance at the rate of prime plus 9% per annum (17.25% as of
the date of this filing) or a minimum of 18% per annum against a minimum monthly
defined compensation of $3,000. As of the date of this filing, the amount due to
the lender was approximately $750,000. In addition, the secured lender received
personal guarantees from Max Munn, President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, and his spouse. During February 1996, the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer arranged for $160,000 additional financing from this lender at
the rates in effect for existing loans. The President and Chief Executive
Officer, and his spouse, have provided personal guarantees for this additional

funding, in addition to a security interest in certain real estate and Company
stock owned by his spouse. Of these proceeds, approximately $121,000 was used to
pay outstanding tax liabilities. The balance of the proceeds was loaned by the
Company to the President and Chief Executive Officer. A $38,000 demand loan
dated February 8, 1996, bearing an annual rate of interest of 18% was executed
by the President and Chief Executive Officer, and countersigned by the Chief
Financial Officer. On May 13, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors affirmed
by majority vote the loan by the Company to its President and Chief Executive 
Officer. The principal balance of the loan will be partially offset by 
unreimbursed business expenses. The remaining loan balance will be repaid by 
the President and Chief Executive Officer to the Company, with interest as 
provided above, by September 1997.

9. SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY

Shareholder's equity

The Company's certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 15,000,000
(adjusted to 30,000,000 as of August 28, 1995 stockholders meeting) Class A
shares, $.001 par value, 2,500,000 Class B shares, $.00l par value, and
2,500,000 (adjusted to 5,300,000 on August 28, 1995) shares of Preferred Stock,
$.01 par value. Each Class B share entitles the holder thereof to five
noncumulative votes per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote at
meetings of stockholders. The Class A and Class B shares shall vote together as
a single class on all matters. The Class B shares are convertible on a
one-for-one basis at any time after issuance at the option of the holder into
Class A shares. The issuance of additional Class B shares could, under certain
circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of
the Company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of Class A
shares. The Preferred Shares are convertible on a three to one basis at any time
after issuance at the option of the holder into Class A shares.

                                      F-30

<PAGE>

In June 1994, the Company issued 517,500 shares of Class A Common stock, par
value $.001 per share. 460,000 Class WA warrants to purchase Class A shares and
Class WB warrants, and 258,750 Class WB warrants to purchase Class A shares. The
net proceeds from this Offering were approximately $1,600,000.

In September 1995, the Company issued 460,000 shares of Series A, 10% Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") and 230,000 Redeemable Class WC
Warrants ("Warrants") to purchase Preferred Stock at the exercise price of $5.50
per share. The net proceeds from this Offering were approximately $1,633,000,
including over-allotments. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible,
commencing one year from the date of issue, subject to adjustment, into three
shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company.

On April 4, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors resolved to issue 250,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to Laurie Munn, wife of the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. This issuance is in
consideration for a down payment of $250, Ms. Munn's 6.6% note to the Company
providing for principal of $437,500 to be paid to the Company in five equal

annual installments of $105,561.90, and Ms. Munn's guaranty and pledge of her
assets for certain Company debt. The shares were issued to Ms. Munn on April 8,
1996. A Promissory Note and Security Agreement, whereby the shares will
collateralize the Promissory Note, was executed by the Company and Ms. Munn
pursuant to these terms.

In April 1996, the Company's investment banking firm arranged for the private
placement of 175,000 shares of the Company's Common A Stock and 50,000 shares of
the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. These stares, all of which bear a
restrictive legend, were issued on April 24, 1996 to various independent
investors (the "Investors") generating gross proceeds of $431,251. The Company
realized net proceeds of $310,609 which was used to pay certain outstanding
liabilities. Commencing thirty (30) days following the date of the close of the
private placement, any of the Investors had the right to demand in writing (the
"Demand Notice") that the Company file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") which shall cover the
shares and allow the Investor to sell the shares to the public. Within fifteen
(15) days following receipt of the Demand Notice, the Company is required to
file such registration statement and use its best efforts to have such 
registration statement declared effective by the Commission and such state 
securities regulators as reasonably requested by the Investor. The Company 
also agreed to include the shares in its next registration statement.

The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on
its Class A Shares, Class B Shares, or Series A Preferred Shares in the
foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain all working capital and
earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business operations, and in the
expansion of its business. In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors
declared a stock dividend equivalent to $0.25 per share to its Series A 10%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stockholders of record as of the close of
business on February 23, 1996 (the "Record Date".) Payment was made on March 1,
1996 by the issuance of 0.10231 of a share of the Company's Class A Common Stock
for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held of record on the Record Date.
Accordingly, 55,247 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock was issued for
this purpose. Retained earnings was charged $165,741 in March 1996 in
conjunction with the issuance of these shares.

Conversions and Stock Grants for Services

On November 23, 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $225,000 from Ekistics
Corp., a Bahamian corporation, pursuant to a promissory note due March 30, 1995,
together with interest at the rate of 14% per annum and a 5% financing charge.
In April 1995, the Company paid $25,000, plus interest on account of the
principal amount of the said Note and entered into a revised note for the
$200,000 balance with such revised Note providing for payment of principal on
October 20, 1995, having an interest rate of 14% per annum and being convertible
into 80,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 40,000 Class WC 


                                      F-31

Warrants. On December 15, 1995, this conversion took place. The 80,000 

Preferred Shares and 40,000 WC Warrants were registered in a Registration 
Statement declared effective September 18, 1996.

In June and July 1995, the Company delivered to unaffiliated parties promissory
notes in the aggregate amount of $300,000 with interest at the rate of 10% per
annum (the "10% Notes") and promissory notes in the principal amount of $100,000
with interest at the rate of 6% per annum (the "6% Notes".) The 10% Notes and 6%
Notes were each payable in June and July 1996 or the closing of the sale by the
Company of an issue of Preferred Stock, whichever is earlier. The 6% Notes were
convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder, into a maximum of
2,000,000 WC Warrants entitling the holders for a period of five years to
purchase one share of Preferred Stock per Class WC Warrant at a price of $5.50
per share. These Warrants are redeemable by the Company. The Notes were secured
by a lien on the Company's assets. In September 1995 the Company repaid all 10%
Notes in full, plus all accrued interest for both the 10% Notes and 6% Notes.
All holders of 6% Notes have converted in full, into a total of 2,000,000 Class
WC Warrants, which were registered in a Registration Statement declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 1996.

In August 1995, the Company agreed to issue, at a future date, 60,000 Class A
Common shares in settlement of all current and future liabilities under a
two-year Marketing and Organizational Agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") with
a consulting firm dated January 4, 1994.

In December 1995, in consideration for certain services rendered, 10,000 shares
of the Company's Class A Common Stock were issued to various individuals related
to Richard Josephberg, an outside Director of the Company.

In February 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance to Sol
Munn, Uncle of the President, of 150,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock, in consideration for past consulting services provided.

Effective June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with
Morris Munn, father of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, in
exchange for certain future services (See Note 10 - Consulting Arrangements). As
part of this agreement, over the subsequent five-years, the Company will pay Mr.
Munn $54,000 per annum in equal bi-weekly installments, and issue to Mr. Munn
options to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred
Stock. These options were fully exercised during July to September 1996,
generating net proceeds to the Company totaling $787,500.

Pursuant to the Company's June 30, 1996 settlement with Ann Stevens (the
"Settlement"), a former executive of the Company and sister of the President and
Chief Executive Officer, the Company issued to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock. The Company plans to register these securities
with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than November 1996. Also
pursuant to the Settlement, the Company issued to Michael Levine as escrow agent
(the "Escrow Agent") 1,250,000 unregistered shares of the Company's Class B
Common shares (the "Escrow Shares".) The Escrow Shares shall not be voted by the
Escrow Agent, unless the Company defaults on its obligations under the
agreement. Upon satisfaction of such obligations, the Escrow Shares shall be
returned by the Escrow Agent to the Company.

An aggregate of $300,000 was recorded by the Company as expense related to the

aforementioned stock issued to consultants and others for services. These
charges were based upon the fair market value of the shares on the respective
dates granted.

See Note 8 and Note 10 for additional issuances of stock for services.

Warrants

                                      F-32

<PAGE>

In September 1995, the Company lowered the exercise price of the Company's Class
WA Warrant to $1.50 per share and arranged to place 180,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common shares which were previously sold pursuant to a
"Regulation S" private placement into escrow. These shares were sold in January
1996 to unrelated parties pursuant to a restructuring of a note payable by the
Company to the holder of these shares as discussed below. On July 16, 1996, the
Company filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission to register the Class WA Warrants and underlying Class A Common
shares. The Commission declared this Registration Statement effective on July
19, 1996. During August and September 1996, 578,000 of the Company's Class WA
Warrants were exercised at $1.50 per warrant, generating proceeds to the Company
totaling $867,000.

In January 1996, the Company's Board of Directors elected to lower the exercise
price of the Company's Class WB Warrant to $2.00 per Class A Common share,
subject to the filing and effectiveness of a Registration Statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Such Registration Statement was filed with
the commission on July 16, 1996 and declared effective on July 19, 1996.

Decor Group Inc. Stock Transaction (See Note 4)

On March 3, 1996, the Company acquired 500,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock and an option to purchase 20,000,000 shares (the "Option

Inc., ("Decor") in exchange for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000
shares of its Class A Common stock and 200,000 shares of its Series A
Convertible Preferred stock and a guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness
should such indebtedness become necessary. Also, the Company exercised its

consideration of $2,000. (See Note 4, Acquisitions, Dispositions and Strategic
Alliances.)

As part of the Company's investment in Decor, during the months of August and
September 1996, the Company purchased 109,867 shares of Decor's Series C
Non-Voting, Convertible, Preferred Stock at a cost of $824,000.

Stock Option Plans

The 1994 Plan. On June 20, 1994, the Company adopted the Interiors, Inc. 1994
Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "1994 Plan"), which provides for
the granting of options to officers, employees and consultants to purchase not
more than an aggregate of 250,000 Class A Shares. Directors of the Company are

not eligible to participate in the 1994 Plan. The 1994 Plan provides for the
grant of options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") as well as options which
do not so qualify.

Pursuant to the 1994 Plan, the Board of Directors or a stock option committee
established by the Board to administer the 1994 Plan determines the persons to
whom options are granted, the number of Class A Shares subject to option, the
period during which the options may be exercised and the option exercise price.
With respect to incentive stock options, no option may be granted more than ten
years after the effective date of the 1994 Plan or exercised more than ten years
after the date of grant (five years if the optionee owns more than ten percent
of the Class A Shares of the Company at the time of grant). Additionally, with
respect to incentive stock options, the option price may not be less than 100%
of the fair market value of the Class A Shares on the date of the grant (110% if
the optionee owns more than ten percent of the Class A Shares of the Company at
the time of grant). The fair market value of the Class A Shares will be
determined by the Board or the Committee in accordance with the 1994 Plan as
follows: If the Class A Shares are not listed and traded upon a recognized
securities exchange, on the basis of recent purchases and sales of Class A
Shares in arms-length transactions or based on the last reported sale or
transaction price for such stock on the date of grant or, if the shares are
traded on a recognized securities exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ National
Market System upon the basis of the last reported sale or transaction price on
the date of grant or, if the shares were not traded on such date, on the date
nearest 

                                      F-33

<PAGE>

preceding that date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, options may not be 
exercised unless, at the time of exercise, the optionee is in the service of 
the Company.

The Board of Directors or the Committee may, in its discretion, at any time
prior to the exercise of any option, grant in connection with such option the
right to surrender part or all of such option to the extent the option is
exercisable, and receive an amount (payable in cash, Class A Shares or
combination thereof as determined by the Board or the Committee) equal to the
difference between the then fair market value of the shares issuable upon the
exercise of the option (or portions thereof surrendered) and the exercise price
of the option or portion thereof surrendered.

On September 16, 1994, the Board of Directors granted Incentive Options to
purchase an aggregate of 159,000 Class A Shares under the 1994 Plan at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date


of grant, or $3.50 per share, to 23 employees and Incentive Options to purchase
25,000 Class A Shares to Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President of the
Company and wife of then Company President, Theodore Stevens, at 110% of the
fair market value or $3.85 per share. Of such options, options to purchase
75,000 Class A Shares were granted to Max Munn, now President and Chief

Executive Officer of the Company, and Ann Stevens, then Executive Vice President
of the Company, and Mr. Munn's sister. In addition, on October 5, 1994 the Board
of Directors granted Incentive Options to two employees to purchase an aggregate
of 20,000 Class A Shares at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of
the shares or $3.38 per share. With respect to each such grant, 25% of such
options will vest each year commencing on the first anniversary of the grant.

The Director Plan. On June 20, 1994 the Board of Directors approved the 1994
Director Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "Director Plan"). The
Director Plan was adopted to provide an incentive to Directors through automatic
and discretionary grants of stock options. The Director Plan provides for the
grant of options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" under the Code
as well as options which do not so qualify.

The Director Plan may be administered by a committee appointed by the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). Options under the Director Plan may
be granted to each person who is a Director of the Company on the date of grant.
All Directors of the Company are eligible to receive options under the Director
Plan.

The Director Plan provides for the granting of options to Directors in such
amount and, subject to the terms of the Director Plan, upon such terms as the
Board or Committee determines in its discretion in order to reward the recipient
director for extraordinary service to the Company. In addition, on the second
Monday of May of each year each person who is then a director of the Company
shall be automatically granted an option to purchase 10,000 of the Company's
Class A Shares, subject to adjustment as provided for in the Director Plan. The
aggregate number of shares for which options may be issued pursuant to the
Director Plan is 250,000 shares. The exercise price for options granted under
the Director Plan must be equal to the fair market value per Class A Share on
the date of grant. The fair market value of the Class A Shares will be
determined by the Board or the Committee in accordance with the Director Plan as
follows: If the Class A Shares are not listed and traded upon a recognized
securities exchange, on the basis of recent purchases and sales of Class A
Shares in arms-length transactions or based on the last reported sale or
transaction price for such stock on the date of grant or, if the shares are
traded on a recognized securities exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ National
Market System upon the last reported sale or transaction price on the date of
grant or, if the shares were not traded on such date, on the date nearest
preceding that date. Each option granted under the Director Plan expires ten
years after the date of grant, unless a lesser period is specified by the
Committee.

In the event an optionee ceases to be a Director of the Company for any reason
at a time when he holds an option, he may exercise only such options as are
exercisable at the time he ceases to be a Director, within the original term of
the option. Options which are not exercisable at the time an optionee ceases to
be a

                                      F-34

<PAGE>

 Director shall terminate. In the event an optionee dies, the Director Plan



provides for the exercise of an option on behalf of the deceased Director.

On September 16, 1994, the Board of Directors granted Incentive Options to
purchase 25,000 Class A Shares to each of Theodore Stevens, then President and
Max Munn, President and Chief Executive Officer and then Executive Vice
President-Operations under the Director Plan at an exercise price equal to 110%
of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, or $3.85 per share,
all of which options immediately vested. As of the date of this filing, with Mr.
Stevens no longer an officer or Director of the Company, the Company does not
plan to issue to Mr. Stevens any additional shares pursuant to any agreement
currently in effect, except that Mr. Stevens currently holds 269,750 shares of 
the Company's Class B Common shares each of which are convertible into one 
Class A Common share at Mr. Stevens option.

At June 30, 1996, pursuant to the execution of a Consulting Agreement between
the Company and Morris Munn, the father of the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer, the Company granted to Morris Munn an option to purchase up
to 350,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Shares at a net exercise
price of $2.25 per share. The Company recorded charges against earnings of
$87,500 at June 30, 1996 in conjunction with the issuance of these options.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996 all 350,000 of these options were exercised,
generating proceeds to the Company of $787,500.

At June 30, 1996, no other options have been granted. At June 30, 1996, an
aggregate of 209,000 options are exercisable at prices ranging from $3.50 to
$3.85.

At June 30, 1996, certain warrants to acquire Company securities are
outstanding: a) 3,760,000 Class WA Warrants exercisable at $1.50 to acquire one
Class A Common Share and one Class WB Warrant, of which 578,000 such warrants
have been exercised subsequent to June 30, 1996, b) 258,750 Class WB Warrants
exercisable at $2.00 to acquire one Class A Common Share, and c) 2,270,000 Class
WC Warrants exercisable at $5.50 to acquire one Series A Preferred Share.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company has no material commitments
for capital expenditures. In order to fund growth over the long term, the
Company anticipates possible future issuance of its securities resulting in
further dilution to its security holders.

two-year automatic renewal) union contract for its union members under the terms
of a collective bargaining agreement. The Company has received notice that the
two-year automatic renewal and the existing union contract will remain in effect
through April 1, 1996. The Company is currently negotiating the renewal of its

Employment Arrangements

On October 27, 1995 the Company entered into a one-year employment agreement
with Robert Schildkraut, then Vice President, Operations with an annual base
salary of $120,000. The Agreement may be terminated by the Company with a
payment of 50% of the employee's salary remaining under the agreement or a
payment of six weeks salary in the event the employee resigns from the Company.
The Agreement also provides for the employee to be granted certain stock options
to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 Class A Shares, 50,000 of which were to be

granted and vested immediately at a price of $2.00 per share, exercisable in six
months from the date of grant, and any attempt to exercise these options during
the exercise period will terminate the options granted on September 16, 1994;
options to purchase 25,000 shares at a price of $4.00 per share to be granted on
the second anniversary; and options to purchase 25,000 shares at a price of
$5.00 per share to be granted on the third anniversary. The Agreement also
provides for a bonus program based on the Company meeting certain minimum profit
goals. In April 1996, the employment of the Vice President, Operations was
terminated. The Company settled its obligations to the employee during the
subsequent quarter. This settlement took the form of severance payments totaling
approximately $27,000. No securities have been issued to the employee as part of
the settlement.

On May 8, 1995, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Donald
Feldman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing of the Company. The Agreement is
for a term of four years beginning June 1995 and may be terminated by the
Company after the first year with payment of 80% of the employee's salary,
reduced by the employee's other income. The Agreement provides that the Vice
President of Sales and Marketing will be employed at a base salary of $117,500

terminate Mr. Feldman's Employment Agreement. Mr. Feldman will enter into a 
three (3) year employment agreement with Decor at such effective date.

Refer to Legal Proceeding Section of this Note for additional disclosure.

Consulting Arrangements

Effective January 4, 1994, the Company entered into a two year Marketing and
Organizational Agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") with Robert M. Leopold.
Pursuant to the Marketing Agreement, Mr. Leopold will consult with and advise
the Company concerning its marketing plans, business operations, organization,
management, strategic planning, products and services, acquisitions, mergers,
and other matters. Mr. Leopold will be paid $9,375 each quarter in advance
together with reimbursement for expenses incurred not to exceed $200 per month.
In August 1995, the Company agreed to issue, at a future date, 60,000 Class A
Common Shares to Mr. Leopold in settlement of all current and future
liabilities, under this agreement. These shares, which bear a restrictive

legend, were issued April 16, 1996. In conjunction with the issuance of these
shares, approximately $55,000 was charged against earnings during the year
ending June 30, 1996.

On April 1, 1995, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Morris
Munn, father of Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
under which he will provide the Company with the following: design and
fabrication of new molds for sculpture; recommend, and implement improvements in
antiquing, woodworking, gilding and carving processes; and attend trade shows
for frame making and mold making. Fees under the agreement are payable at
$54,000 per annum for one year renewable at the Company's option. On June 30,

Legal Proceedings

During April and May of 1995, Hide Tashiro commenced two law suits totaling
$225,000 (plus interest and attorneys' fees) against the Company and others. The
Company believes it has meritorious defenses against these claims. In April 1996
the plaintiff's motions for summary judgment were denied and the court held that
there was an issue of fact to be tried. The Company believes it has valid
defenses against these claims and is of the opinion the outcome on this matter
will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.

On or about December 28, 1994, Merrill Corp. filed a complaint in the Supreme
Court of the State of New York, against the Company seeking payment for goods
sold and delivered to the Company. The matter was settled in July 1996.

In July 1995, the Company through its attorneys made demand against Morgan Steel
Ltd. the office of which is located on the Isle of Man, England, for the payment
to the Company of $362,507 on account of a perceived violation of Section 16(b)
of the Securities and Exchange Act. No response to said demand for payment has
been made to date. On May 23, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors resolved
that the Company and its officers and directors undertake no action given the
uncertainty of the cost of collectibility, and ultimate legal liability of
Morgan Steel Ltd. either in the United States or the Isle of Man.

Gear Holdings, Inc. brought an action against the Company for the alleged breach
of a licensing agreement. The Company denies that it was a party to an agreement
with Gear, or that any sum of money is owed. The complaint demands sums Gear
allegedly would have received under the agreement in a sum to be determined, but
not less than $250,000.

In July 1996, all litigation brought against the Company (as itemized in the
four following paragraphs) and its principals and Directors by Ted Stevens, Ann
Stevens and Morris Munn was settled. Settlement of the lawsuits by Ted Stevens
and Morris Munn against the Company and its officers and Directors are subject
to Court approval.


On October 13, 1995, Ted Stevens, individually, as a Shareholder and Director
and Morris Munn, individually and as a Director and on behalf of themselves and
all other similarly situated Shareholders and Directors of the Company filed a
complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Westchester,
against the Company and its directors seeking unspecified damages and certain
changes in the composition of the Company's Board.

On December 1, 1995, Ted Stevens, husband of Ann Stevens, filed a complaint in
United States District Court, Southern District of New York, against Laurie Munn
and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company seeking, among other things, the
equitable rescission of a stock sale agreement between Mr. Stevens and Ms. Munn.
On February 29, 1996, the Court held that Mr. Stevens did not have the right to
rescission and denied Mr. Stevens' motion for a preliminary injunction and on
April 17, 1996, the Court dismissed the action for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction.

On December 12, 1995, Ann Stevens filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of Nassau against the Company and certain Directors
seeking, among other things, compensatory and punitive damages arising out of
the alleged breach of Ann Stevens' Employment Agreement.

On April 23, 1996, Ted Stevens filed a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the
State of Delaware against the Company and certain Directors, seeking among other
things, the rescission of a certain stock sale agreement between the Company and
Laurie Munn.

The litigation relating to the termination of the 1995 employment agreement
between Ann Stevens and the Company was settled by the execution of an
employment severance agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the
Company paid Ms. Stevens $63,000 for accrued and unpaid compensation upon
execution of the Agreement. Subsequently, for a period of seven years, the
Company will make bi-weekly payments to Ms. Stevens to total $72,000 for the
first year, $70,000 for each of the next three years, and $50,000 for each of
the final three years. As additional compensation, the Company will pay Ms.
Stevens for reimbursement of certain expenses, $50,000 in various installments
during the four months ending December 1996. The Company also entered into a
non-compete agreement with Ms. Stevens for which the Company will make bi-weekly
payments to Ms. Stevens to total $25,000 per year for seven years, plus
automobile and insurance costs for five years. Effective June 30, 1996 the
Company issued to Ms. Stevens 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Shares, which were previously committed to Ms. Stevens pursuant to her 1995
employment agreement. In connection with the Agreement, the Company issued
1,250,000 shares of its Class B Common Shares (the "Escrow Shares") to Michael
Levine, Esq., attorney of Ms. Stevens, as escrow

agent (the "Escrow Agent"). The Escrow Agent shall abstain from voting the
Escrow Shares for any purpose, except in the event of either the failure by the
Company to adhere to the payment provisions noted above or the financial
insolvency of the Company. If either event occurs, Ms. Stevens will be in a
position to elect replacement Directors. Once the payment provisions in the
severance and non-compete agreements are satisfied, the Escrow Agent shall
release the Escrow Shares to the Company.


On August 13, 1996, the Munn Trust of 1975, Sol Munn and Evelyn A. Munn,
Co-Trustees commenced an action against the Company as well as Max Munn, the
Company's President and Chief Executive

Officer and Laurie Munn, his wife seeking monetary damages for the sum of 
$111,000. The Company considers the complaint to be without merit and will 
vigorously defend the action.

SJP Contractors of New York, Inc. commenced an action in September 1996 against
the predecessor entity of the Company, A.P.F. Holdings, Inc., and others for
$208,165 for work, labor and services allegedly performed in January 1991 for
the renovation of the Company's premises. The Company's answer pleads that
payment was made for the amount owed.

In September 1991, without admitting or denying the allegations, Max Munn, the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer agreed with the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) to the entry of a Consent Order in an action brought against
Mr. Munn and others; which action arose out of the advertising of certain
lithographs of original works of art as regards to whether or not the artist had
played a substantial role in the production of lithographs. The case was settled
before trial or discovery solely with entry of the above Consent Order; which
enjoins Mr. Munn from making certain representations in connection with the sale
of any works of art. The Consent Order also requires Mr. Munn for a period of
five years (which expired as of September 1996) as to the maintenance of certain
records as they concern the sale of certain lithographs.

The Company is subject to other claims and litigation in the ordinary course of
business. In management's opinion, such claims are not material to the Company's
financial position or its results of operations.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In October 1990 A.P.F. issued 100 shares of its Common Stock, no par value, to
Theodore Stevens, then President and a former Director of the Company, for
aggregate consideration of $225,000 and in October 1990 A.P.F. issued 165 shares
of its Preferred Stock, $1,000 par value per share, to Theodore Stevens in
consideration for the payment of $165,000. On June 30, 1992, A.P.F. converted
certain indebtedness arising from services rendered and loans provided by Decor
to A.P.F. in the amount of $114,000 to 114 shares of Preferred Stock of A.P.F.
In March 1994 such shares were transferred by Decor to Theodore Stevens and all
of such 279 shares of Preferred Stock were converted by Mr. Stevens into 124
shares of A.P.F. Common Stock. As a result of the Company's recapitalization,
the Company issued 1,000,000 Class B Shares (constituting all of the then issued
and outstanding Class B Shares of the Company) to Theodore Stevens in exchange
for all of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of A.P.F., the predecessor to
the Company.

In August 1995, Theodore Stevens, a Director of the Company, and Laurie Munn,
wife of Max Munn, President and Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the
Company, entered into an agreement whereby an existing option granted by Mr.

Stevens to Mrs. Munn to purchase 500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $3.50
per share was canceled and Mr. Stevens sold to Mrs. Munn 269,750 shares of Class
B Common Stock for $150,000 payable by an initial installment of $15,000 and a
promissory note for the balance of the purchase price payable in 15 years with 
interest at the rate of 6.6% per annum. On December 1, 1995, Mr. Stevens filed 
a complaint in United States District Court, Southern District of New York 
against Ms. Munn seeking, among other things, the rescission of this stock 
sale. In June 1996, the parties agreed to a settlement without either the 
rescission of the stock sale or the need for additional payments by any party 
to the transaction (See Note 10).

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company borrowed the sum of
$75,000 from Sol Munn, the uncle of Max Munn, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company and borrowed an additional $75,000 in fiscal 1993. The
aggregate amount due, in the amount of $150,000, was evidenced by a promissory
note dated September 1, 1993, payable to The Munn Trust of 1975-Trustee: Sol
Munn and Evelyn Munn and bore interest at the rate of 12% per annum. The note
was payable September 1, 1996, subject to the right of Sol Munn to extend the
term for an additional one year period upon 60 days notice. In March 1994 the
bearer of the note agreed to purchase certain works of art at 58% above the


                                      F-39

<PAGE>

Company's cost in full satisfaction of the above note. The Company recorded
approximately $87,000 credit to earnings pursuant to this transaction. On August
13, 1996, The Munn Trust of 1975, Sol Munn and Evelyn A. Munn. co-trustees,
commenced action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of
Suffolk against Laurie Munn, Max Munn, and the Company pursuant to this
transaction, seeking monetary damages for the sum of $111,000 (See Note 10).

On July 7, 1994, Theodore Stevens, Max Munn and Ann Stevens, then respectively
President, Executive Vice President and Executive Vice President of the Company,
personally guaranteed the obligations of the Company under a Promissory Note
dated July 7, 1994 in the amount of $950,000 at an interest rate of prime plus
one percent (9.25% as of the date of this filing) to a New York bank. Pursuant
to terms of settlement involving various issues (See Note 10), in the event that
the Company's debt to the Bank is not repaid in full prior to March 31, 1997,
the Company will pay Ann Stevens, who is married to Mr. Stevens .2083% of the
outstanding balance per month as compensation for her personal guarantee. As of
September 30, 1996, the outstanding balance of this note totals $870,000.

On February 15, 1996, the Company's Italia Collection subsidiary entered into a
Financing Arrangement with a New York corporation whereby Italia Collection may
borrow pursuant to an asset-related formula. The agreement remains in effect as
of the date of this filing and may be terminated by either party upon notice to
the other and payment of the commitment fee for the unexpired term of this
agreement. Interest is calculated on the daily cash balance at the rate of prime
plus 9% per annum (17.25% as of the date of this filing) or a minimum of 18% per
annum against a minimum monthly defined compensation of $3,000. As of the date
of this filing, the amount due to the lender was approximately $738,000. (See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources.") This Financing Arrangement has been

personally guaranteed by Max Munn, the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer and his wife.

For the years ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995, the Company paid
approximately $30,000 and $46,000, respectively, to the father of the President,
and Chief Executive Officer for consulting services. See "Executive Compensation
- - Consulting Arrangements." These amounts are included in capitalized mold costs
on the balance sheet.

In October 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $33,000 from the Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The amount due is evidenced by two
promissory notes dated October 27, 1994 and October 28, 1994 for $8,000 and
$25,000, respectively, which bore interest rates of 18% and 12% per annum,
respectively. The principal and interest were initially due November 17, 1994
and November 18, 1994, respectively, and have been extended to February 15,
1995. Unpaid sums bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum plus $160. In
April, 1995, the Company paid all principal and interest due on both promissory
notes.

In October 1994, the Company borrowed the sum of $8,000 from the President of
the Company. The amount due was evidenced by a promissory note dated October 27,
1994, which bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum. The principal and interest
were due November 17, 1994. In November 1994, the Company repaid the loan. In
addition, in November and December 1994, the Company advanced an aggregate
amount of $13,000 to the then Executive Vice President-Operations of the
Company, and now its President and Chief Executive Officer. This amount will be
repaid to the Company during the year ended June 30, 1997.

On February 8, 1996, the Company entered into a demand loan with the President
for $38,000, bearing interest at 18%.

                                      F-40

<PAGE>

In July 1991, the Company started a qualified Profit Sharing Plan for all
nonunion employees and a nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan for certain key
employees. The Company has not made any contributions to the Qualified Profit
Sharing Plan or the Deferred Compensation Plan since its initial contribution
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992.


13. PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision (benefit) consists of:

                                                    Year Ended June 30,
                                                    -------------------
                                                    1996           1995
                                                    ----           ----

Current income taxes:
Federal                                           $   -         $    -
State and local                                     17,859           
                                                  --------      --------- 
                                                    17,859           -
Deferred income tax                                              (100,000)
                                                  --------      --------- 
                                                  $ 17,859      $(100,000)
                                                  --------      --------- 

The difference between the statutory and effective tax rate for the years ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995 results principally from a full reserve against any
benefit generated in 1996 (state taxes are provided) and immaterial
non-deductible expenses in 1995.

The benefit from the Company's net operating loss carryforward for Federal
income tax purposes in the amount of approximately $5,100,000 (which expire
through 2011) has been fully reserved for because future realization is not
considered to be "more likely than not". In addition, due to the changes in
ownership during the last three years and the future, utilization of the net
operating losses against future taxable income may be severely limited. The
deferred tax asset of approximately $1,800,000 is comprised primarily of net
operating losses and temporary differences.

                     INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a
corporation to indemnity its directors and officers and to purchase insurance
with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors
and officers provided that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the
liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to
the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

         The Delaware General Corporation Law provides further that the
indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the
corporation's by-laws, any agreement, vote of shareholders or otherwise.

         Article Seven of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates
the personal liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section
102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

         The effect of the foregoing is to require the Company to indemnity the
officers and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons
in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner
that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933 MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR PERSONS CONTROLLING THE COMPANY
PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, THE COMPANY HAS BEEN INFORMED THAT IN THE
OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS
AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THE ACT AND IS THEREFORE UNENFORCEABLE.

Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

         The following is a statement of estimated expenses in connection with

       Legal Fees and Expenses                                      $50,000

Item 28. Undertakings

         (a) Rule 415 Offering.


                                      II-8

<PAGE>

         The undersigned registrant will:

         (1)      File, during any period in which offers or sales are being
                  made, a post-effective amendment to this registration
                  statement to:

                  (i)      Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3)
                           of the Securities Act;

                  (ii)     Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which,
                           individually or in the aggregate, represent a
                           fundamental change in the information set forth in
                           the registration statement; and

                  (iii)    Include any additional or changed material
                           information on the plan of distribution.

         (2)      For determining liability under the Securities Act treat each
                  post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of
                  the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at
                  that time to be the initial bona fide offering.

         (3)      File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration
                  any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the
                  offering.

(b) Indemnification.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions referred to in Item 28 of this
Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

(d) Rule 430A.

         The undersigned Registrant will:

         (1)      For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat

                  the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as
                  part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A
                  and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the small
                  business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under
                  the Securities Act as part of this Registration Statement as
                  of the time the Commission declared it effective.

         (2)      For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat
                  each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
                  prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities
                  offered in the Registration Statement, and that offering of
                  the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering
                  of those securities.
