PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The statements in this Form 10-K that relate to future plans, events or
performance are forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ
materially due to a variety of important factors, including for example, the
Company's ability to exploit its portfolio of licenses, failure of the
Company's licensees to perform under existing or future licenses, the
development of competing technology and the risks associated with protecting
the Company's intellectual property rights from adverse claims. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward looking
statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
GENERAL
Censtor was incorporated in 1981, and until early calendar 1996, had
been focused on developing technology for and manufacturing high performance
contact recording heads and media for the computer disk drive industry. The
Company was unable to raise the capital required to pursue its former strategy
of manufacturing contact recording heads and, accordingly, on July 18, 1996, the
Company completed a transaction with Read-Rite Corporation ("Read-Rite") to
concentrate its efforts on licensing rather than licensing and manufacturing.
The transaction with Read-Rite (the "Read-Rite Transaction") involved the
purchase by Read-Rite of Censtor's manufacturing and research and development
operations including the tangible assets, contracts and lease liabilities
related thereto together with a grant by Censtor to Read-Rite of a non-exclusive
license to Censtor's patents and other intellectual property rights related to
the Company's technology.
The Company owns or has applied for fundamental patents pertaining to
micro-miniature, low-cost read/write heads and special surface treatments for
disk media that allow continuous head/disk contact during operation ("contact
recording") without excessive wear. Most heads available commercially are
designed to operate at a microscopic distance or "fly" above the surface of the
disk on a cushion of air and come into true contact with the disk only when the
drive is turned off or "powered down." Historically, increases in areal density
(the number of bits of data stored in a unit of area, usually quoted in square
inches, on the surface of the recording disk) have come primarily from
reductions in flying height. Contact recording has not been possible because of
the excessive wear and crash problems inherent in operating conventional head
designs in continuous contact with the disk media. The Company believes that
Censtor technology solves these problems.
The Company's present business model calls for the Company to license
contact, pseudo-contact and suspension recording technologies to disk drive
manufacturers. Currently, Censtor has sold licenses to nine disk drive and disk
drive component manufacturers (IBM, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Maxtor, NEC, Western
Digital, Denka, Read-Rite and TDK) who bought the licenses based upon their
expectations that the Company's technologies may be used in the future or
because they recognized they were utilizing Censtor's technology. In July 1998
Censtor filed a complaint for patent infringement against JTS Corporation
("JTS") seeking to enforce the Company's patent rights. JTS has generally
denied the allegations. The Company believes Western Digital has breached its
license agreement with the Company. The Company is seeking to enforce its
rights through arbitration with Western Digital.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
Censtor's strategy is to perfect its patent protection and rights to
proprietary disk drive technology developed by it over the last 17 years, and to
exploit that technology through licensing or other strategic transactions with
disk drive manufacturers and other related companies. The Company has been
unsuccessful in its efforts to sell licenses to the Company's technology to some
prospective licensees who, in management's opinion, are infringing the Company's
patents. Accordingly, at the beginning of fiscal 1998, management and the Board
of Directors concluded that the Company would benefit from leadership with
extensive experience in patent enforcement. Management has sought, and found,
such capability in, and has entered into a relationship with I. P. Managers,
Inc. ("IPM"). Management believes the Company's arrangement with IPM will
provide the best available leadership while minimizing the short term cash
obligations of the Company while it seeks to complete new license agreements and
collect royalties from existing licensees.

<PAGE> 3
MAINTENANCE AND ENHANCEMENT OF PATENT PORTFOLIO
To protect and enhance its large investment in head and media
development, the Company maintains an aggressive patent prosecution strategy and
has obtained several patents covering low mass recording heads. The Company's
patent portfolio currently includes 20 issued United States patents, 15 pending
United States patent applications, 12 foreign patents and 10 foreign patent
applications.
COMPETITION AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE
The disk drive component industry is intensely competitive. Participants
in the industry include both independent component suppliers as well as large
disk drive and computer manufacturers that supply their internal component
requirements. These companies have greater financial, marketing and
technological resources than Censtor. The Company also competes with companies
offering products based on alternative data storage and retrieval technologies.
Technological advances in magnetic, optical, semiconductor or other
technologies, or the development of new technologies, could result in the
introduction of competitive products with superior performance to and
substantially lower prices than the Company's technology can provide, which
could render the Company's technology noncompetitive or obsolete, thereby
adversely affecting the Company's results of operations.
The market for the Company's technology is intensely competitive and
characterized by rapidly changing advances in head and media technologies. These
advances result in frequent product introductions, short product life cycles and
increased product capabilities that may result in significant performance
improvements and price reductions. Specifically, the Company is subject to
competition from manufacturers of thin film inductive and MR heads, as well as
thin film media based on use of conventional flying head and longitudinal
recording technologies. Head and media product performance has been improving
steadily due to a combination of increased transducer efficiency, improved media
performance, smaller slider size, lower flying heights, and pseudo-contact heads
and it is expected to continue to improve. In addition to enabling lower flying
heights, the cost of advanced inductive flying heads is being decreased by the
reduction in the size of the slider, which permits fabrication of more sliders
per wafer. There can be no assurance that the Company's potential performance
will be realized in practice or can be maintained over the improvements to
conventional inductive heads.
LICENSES WITH DISK DRIVE AND COMPONENT MANUFACTURERS
The Company has entered into license agreements with six of the
approximately twenty-five disk drive manufacturers in the world: IBM, Fujitsu,
Hitachi, Maxtor, NEC and Western Digital, and with three component manufacturers
- - Denka, Read-Rite and TDK. The Company has executed license agreements with
initial license fees of $27.0 million and has received $7.5 million of
non-refundable advance royalty payments from these licensees. Some of these
agreements provide that no future licenses granted by the Company will be more
favorable than the existing licenses and that the licensee may grant restricted
sub-licenses to component suppliers. Others permit the licensees to acquire the
right to appoint subcontractors in exchange for the payment of additional
license fees and royalties. The specific terms of the license agreements vary
depending on when the licenses were entered into, whether or not the Company has
rights to future royalty payments from certain of the licensees, whether the
license extends to not only the Company's patents but also its trade secret
information, and whether the licensee is expected to become a component
supplier.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
Although the Company no longer engages in any manufacturing or research
and development activities, in the past the Company has been subject to a
variety of governmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge,
handling, emission, generation, manufacture and disposal of toxic or other
hazardous substances used to manufacture and test the Company's micro
Flexhead(R) component. The Company
-3-
<PAGE> 4
believes that it has been in compliance in all material respects and at all
material times with such regulations and that it had obtained all necessary
environmental permits to conduct its business. Any failure in the past by the
Company to control the use, disposal or storage of, or adequately restrict the
discharge of, hazardous or toxic substances could subject the Company to
significant liabilities.
HUMAN RESOURCES
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had two part-time employees. One is
responsible for the finance and administrative duties for the Company while the
other is responsible for all other management duties of the Company including
the Company's intellectual property management duties.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Unless otherwise indicated, references to years in this section refer
to fiscal years ending June 30.
The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements
regarding future events or the future financial performance of Censtor that
involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a
result of certain factors, including those set forth in the documents the
Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company was formed in 1981 to develop perpendicular recording
technology, and to manufacture head and disk components for disk drives. The
Company subsequently shifted the focus of its development efforts from
perpendicular to longitudinal contact recording technology. To date, the
Company's principal source of revenue has been license fees from disk drive
manufacturers. While the Company's license agreements typically provide for
on-going royalty payments by licensees based upon sales of products
incorporating the Company's technology, to date none of the Company's licensees
has commercialized products using the Company's technology and the Company has
received no recurring royalty revenue. Until fiscal 1997, the Company had not
been profitable in any fiscal period since inception and, as of June 30, 1998,
had an accumulated deficit of $102.5 million. There can be no assurance that the
Company will achieve or sustain significant revenues or profitability in the
future.
Censtor's operating plans for fiscal 1999 focus on the perfection of the
Company's patent protection and other proprietary rights and the possible
exploitation of such rights through licenses or other strategic transactions
with disk drive manufacturers and other related companies. The Company expects
to finance these operations through sales of additional licenses. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve such sales or sustain its
operations beyond 1999 without the sale of such additional licenses.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily
through private placements of its equity and debt securities and, to a lesser
extent, through licensing and research and development agreements. In fiscal
year 1996, the Company generated net cash of $6.6 million resulting primarily
from $7.5 million in notes payable and short term borrowing offset by $1.4
million in capital lease payments. In 1997, the Company used $5.5 million in
financing activities due primarily to the repayment of notes payable and short
term borrowing. There were no cash flows from financing activities in fiscal
1998.
During fiscal 1996, the Company used net cash in its operations of $8.1
million. In 1997, the Company generated cash from operations of $4.9 million. In
1998, the Company generated cash in its operations of $116,000 primarily from
the sale of the TDK license offset by changes in the operating accounts. In
1996, the Company received payments of license fees and non-refundable prepaid
royalties from several licensees, which caused net cash used in operations to be
less than the Company's net loss. In addition, particularly in 1996, the Company
delayed payments on accounts payable to conserve cash prior to completion of
then-anticipated new financing.
The Company generated net cash from investing activities of $358,000 in
1996 consisting of $192,000 used for additions to property and equipment and
$550,000 provided by proceeds from the sale and
-8-
<PAGE> 9
leaseback, and sale of fixed assets. In 1997, the Company generated $1.1 million
from investing activities primarily from the sale of certain fixed assets to
Read-Rite in the Read-Rite Transaction. There were no cash flows from investing
activities in fiscal 1998.
The Company's ability to fund its cash requirements and assert its
intellectual property rights in the future depends largely upon its success in
seeking new licensees. The Company believes the cash received from the license
agreement with TDK will enable it to fund its planned operations through fiscal
1999. The Company's cash flow needs in fiscal year 1999 are primarily for
operating expenses, which may include significant litigation expense.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues
The Company's major revenue source has been fees from license agreements
with disk drive manufacturers. License fees are generally recognized over the
estimated period in which the Company expects to provide support in connection
with the license. All deferred revenue pertaining to licenses sold to disk drive
manufacturers was recognized as revenue in fiscal 1996 and 1997 since the
Company can no longer provide technical support to its licensees as a result of
the Read-Rite Transaction. The license fee from Read-Rite in connection with the
Read-Rite Transaction will be recognized over a period of six years.
The Company's revenues were $3.2 million, $4.1 million and $3.1 million
in 1996, 1997 and 1998 respectively. Revenues in fiscal 1996 consisted primarily
of the amortization of the Hitachi license which was entered into in December
1994, as well as the NEC license sold in August 1995. Revenues in 1997 were the
result of the amortization of the Read-Rite and Western Digital license fees.
These licenses were entered into at the beginning of the fiscal year. Revenues
in fiscal 1998 consisted of the entire TDK license fee and the amortization of
the Read-Rite and Western Digital license fees.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses were $8.3 million in 1996 and were
eliminated in 1997 and 1998. This is attributed to Read-Rite's hiring of most of
Censtor's employees on February 5, 1996 and the subsequent acquisition of the
Company's research and development operations. In the future the Company expects
no R&D expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $2.4 million
in 1996 to $1.8 million in 1997 to $1.2 million in 1998. The decreases in 1997
and 1998 were due to a reduction in headcount and operations.
Interest and Other Income (Expense)
Interest and other expense, net, consists primarily of interest on the
Company's outstanding indebtedness and capital leases. Interest and other
expense, net, was $1.0 million in 1996 and decreased to $100,000 in 1997. In
fiscal 1998, the Company had interest income of $24,000. The Company repaid or
was forgiven all of its interest bearing debt at the beginning of the 1997
fiscal year.
Gain on Transfer of Research and Development Operation
The Company recognized a gain of $1.6 million in fiscal 1997 relating to
the Read-Rite Transaction. The gain consists of $899,000 related to the
forgiveness of certain promissory notes and $698,000 related to the gain on sale
of fixed assets and the transfer of the Company's workforce.

Income Taxes
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had federal and state net operating
losses of approximately $83.0 million and $31.0 million, respectively, expiring
in various years beginning in 1999 through 2012. The Company also has federal
and state credit carryforwards of approximately $3.0 million and $1.5 million
respectively, expiring in various years beginning in 1999 through 2010.
Tax law provides that the use of net operating loss and credit
carryforwards are limited if there is a substantial change in the ownership of
the Company. Due to prior years' equity transactions, such a change has
occurred. Approximately $62.0 million of federal net operating loss and
substantially all credit carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation. The
annual limitation is approximately $1.2 million per year. The balance of $21.0
million of federal net operating loss carryforwards can be used without
limitation. Similar limitations apply to state carryforwards.
Income tax expenses for fiscal 1996 and 1998 consist of foreign
withholding taxes in connection with license agreements. Income tax expense in
1997 represents a provision for alternative minimum taxes.
Impact of Year 2000
As is the case with most other companies using computers in their
operations, the Company is currently working to resolve the potential impact of
the year 2000 on the processing of date-sensitive information by the Company's
computerized information systems. The Company's computer programs were written
using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. As a result,
those computer programs have time-sensitive software that recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could cause a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions.
The Company has completed an assessment and will have to modify its
software so that its computer systems will function properly with respect to
dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. Management does not currently believe
that the affect of its Year 2000 compliance efforts will have a material effect
on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

term life insurance with benefits payable to beneficiaries designated by

April 22, 1996 and resigned these positions effective September 3, 1997.
(5) Sabine Austin was appointed President and Chief Financial Officer
effective September 3, 1997. Sabine Austin was also Chief Executive
Officer from September 3, 1997 through June 15, 1998.
(6) Gary Summers was appointed Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the
Board of Censtor Corp. on June 15, 1998. He is also the President of
IPM.
Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
There were no option grants in the last fiscal year and the Incentive Stock
Option Plan has been canceled.
Aggregated Option Exercises in Last Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year End Option
Values
There were no option exercises in the last fiscal year, and all outstanding
options have either expired or been canceled.
Report of the Board of Directors on Executive Compensation
Compensation for the Company's executive officers was established by the
Board of Directors to consist of salary and bonus to insure a close link between
compensation and the achievement of corporate goals and objectives. The Board
had previously adopted an employee stock option plan to retain qualified
executives by providing long-term incentives. On June 25, 1997 the Board voted
to discontinue this stock option plan and all outstanding options were canceled
prior to calendar year end.
During 1993, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 was amended to include a
provision that denies a deduction to publicly held corporations for compensation
paid to "covered employees" (defined as the chief executive officer and the next
four most highly compensated officers as of the end of the taxable year) to the
extent that compensation paid to any "covered employee" exceeds $1 million in
any taxable year of the corporation beginning after 1993. Certain
"performance-based" compensation qualifies for an exemption from the limits on
deductions. It is the Company's policy to qualify compensation paid to its top
executives for deductibility in order to maximize the Company's income tax
deductions, to the extent that so qualifying the compensation is not
inconsistent with the Company's fundamental compensation policies. Based on the
Internal Revenue Service's proposed regulations and compensation paid to the
Company's "covered employees" for the 1997 taxable year, all compensation paid
by the Company in 1997 to such covered employees was deductible to the Company.
With respect to corporate performance criteria, management presents to the
Board a set of corporate goals for a subsequent period, generally 12 months,
with specific goals for each of four quarters within this period. These goals
establish benchmarks for assessing overall corporate performance. Progress
toward the achievement of corporate goals is reviewed with the Board
periodically together with a description of any change in circumstances that
management believes may warrant an update to or revisions to these goals. The
major goals for fiscal 1998 were to 1) seek new licensees and 2) recover any
royalties from existing licensees which would be due the Company under the terms
of the respective license agreements.
The CEO and Chairman of the Board does not receive any compensation from
the Company for serving in this capacity at this time. The President receives an
annual salary and has entered into a compensation agreement with the Company
whereby she will receive a bonus equal to 1.5% of all net licensing revenue
received by the Company as long as she serves as a director.
During 1998 there were no salary increases.
In summary, the Board believes that it has established a program for
compensation of the Company's executives which is fair and which aligns the
financial incentives for executives with the interests of the Company's
shareholders.
During 1998, no executive officer of the Company served on the board of
directors or compensation committee of another company that had an executive
officer serve on the Company's Board of Directors.
Performance Chart
A Performance Chart is not included because there is no established public
market for the Company's stock.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and
persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's
equity securities, to file reports of ownership on Form 3 and changes in
ownership on Form 4 or 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
National Association of Securities Dealers. Such officers, directors and ten
percent shareholders are also required by Securities and Exchange Commission
rules to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they
file.
Based solely on its review of copies of such reports received or written
representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that,
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, there has been no failure by any of
its officers, directors or ten percent shareholders to file on a timely basis
any reports required by Section 16(a).

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into the following transactions with its officers
and directors since July 1, 1997:
In September 1990, Richard C. E. Morgan, a past director of the Company,
exercised stock options as to 6,848 shares of the Company's Common Stock and, in
lieu of payment to the Company for such exercise, Mr. Morgan delivered to the
Company a promissory note in the principal amount of $2,000. The note, which was
due July 11, 1997, was called and the stock was canceled by action of the Board
of Directors in July 1997.
In July 1993, Karen Cindrich, a former officer of the Company, exercised
stock options as to 15,395 shares of the Company's Common Stock and in lieu of
payment to the Company for such exercise, Ms. Cindrich delivered to the Company
a promissory note in the principal amount of $8,810. The note, which was due
July 22, 1997, was called and the stock was canceled by action of the Board of
Directors in July 1997.
The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company is required to indemnify its
officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by California law,
including those circumstances in which indemnification would otherwise be
discretionary, and that the Company is required to advance expenses to its
officers and directors as incurred. Further, the Company has entered into
indemnification agreements with its officers and directors. The Company believes
that its charter and bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are
necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
On July 7, 1997, Russell M. Krapf notified the Company that he intended to
resign his position as President and CEO effective September 3, 1997. On July
29, 1997, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Krapf for a
period up to one year. Mr. Krapf was paid $45,000 for these consulting services.
On July 29, 1997, the Company created an incentive compensation program for
Ms. Sabine Austin to serve as a director of the Company. This program will pay
Ms. Austin a bonus equal to 1.5% of all net licensing revenue received by the
Company as long as she serves as a director.
On July 31, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with IPM, whereby
IPM acts as Censtor's agent to enforce its current licenses and to negotiate
licenses with prospective licensees. Under this agreement, IPM will be paid
between 15-45% of the net proceeds of such activities depending upon the source
of revenue. In fiscal year 1998, IPM assisted with the sale of a license to
TDK, pursuant to which IPM was paid approximately $200,000 (which includes
payment for other services). Mr. Gary Summers is the President and a
stockholder of IPM.
The Company believes that all of the transactions set forth above were made
on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. All future transactions between the Company and its
officers, directors, principal shareholders and affiliates will be approved by a
majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the independent and
disinterested outside directors on the Board of Directors, and will be on terms
no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from unaffiliated third
parties.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Censtor Corp.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Censtor Corp. as
of June 30, 1997 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, net capital deficiency, and cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended June 30, 1998. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Censtor
Corp. at June 30, 1997 and 1998, and the consolidated results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Censtor Corp. (the Company) licenses technology related to recording
heads and storage media utilizing contact magnetic recording technology. The
Company licenses its technology to disk drive and component manufacturers. The
Company's ability to fund its cash requirements and assert its intellectual
property rights in the future depends largely upon its success in seeking new
licensees. The Company believes its existing cash resources will enable it to
fund its planned operations through fiscal 1999. The Company's cash flow needs
in fiscal 1999 are primarily for operating expenses, which may include
significant litigation expense.
Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company, Contact Recording Technology, Inc., an inactive manufacturing
company, and Censtor Media Corp., an inactive research and development company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company
invests excess cash in money market funds with a local bank. These investments
are generally available upon demand and are collateralized by the assets of the
bank and the financial institution. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair
value, which approximates cost.
Revenue Recognition
License fees are generally recognized over the estimated period in which
the Company expects to provide support in connection with the license.
Royalties from licensees on sales of licensed products will be
recognized when products incorporating the Company's technology are shipped by
the licensees or when nonrefundable payments are received.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Earnings Per Share
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (FAS 128). FAS 128
replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share
with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share,
basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, and
convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the
previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. All earnings per share
amounts for all periods have been presented and, where necessary, restated to
conform to the FAS 128 requirements.
The following table sets forth the components for the computation of
basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 financial
statements to conform to the 1998 presentation.
Related Party Transactions
The Company utilizes outside sources for the performance of intellectual
property management duties. One of these companies is I.P. Managers, Inc. (IPM).
IPM has relationships with intellectual property law firms that provide legal
services to the Company. IPM also specializes in consulting and expert witness
services to the legal profession. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the
Company paid approximately $200,000 for such services.

2. THE READ-RITE TRANSACTION
On March 29, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement (the Agreement)
with Read-Rite Corporation (Read-Rite), a large manufacturer of components for
disk drives, that provided for the transfer to Read-Rite of the Company's
research and development operations, including the hiring of eighty-four of its
employees and the sale of certain of the Company's physical assets, rights, and
obligations under contracts related thereto (the Read-Rite Transaction). The
Agreement was approved by the Company's shareholders on July 11, 1996, and the
Read-Rite Transaction closed on July 18, 1996 (the Closing).
Additionally, upon the Closing, the Company granted a nonexclusive
irrevocable worldwide license to Read-Rite covering the Company's intellectual
property, including the Company's rights in patents, technology, and software.
Gross proceeds to the Company in connection with the Read-Rite
Transaction were approximately $9.0 million. The gross proceeds were reduced by
approximately $1.9 million, related to partial repayment of the outstanding
balance on certain notes payable to Read-Rite. The remaining balance on the
notes payable of approximately $900,000 was forgiven.
Of the total proceeds, $8.0 million was in consideration for the grant
of the license and $1.0 million for the sale of assets and transfer of the
assembled workforce. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $700,000 in
connection with the sale of assets and the transfer of the assembled workforce.
The Company has granted to Read-Rite a security interest in its
intellectual property to secure certain obligations and warranties with respect
to the intellectual property for a period of six years following the effective
date of the Agreement. After the third year following the effective date of the
Agreement, the Company may terminate the security interest by depositing $4.0
million in an escrow account. Such amount is reduced by $1.0 million in each of
the two succeeding years, and the escrow terminates the following year.
Accordingly, the Company is recognizing $4.0 million of such license fee ratably
over the first three years following the Closing, which approximates the time
period during which the Company expects to be incurring costs to maintain its
patents in support of the Company's license agreement with Read-Rite.
Subsequently, amounts will be recognized as the escrow fund described above is
reduced.

3. RESTRUCTURED DEBT OBLIGATION
On September 30, 1996, $12.7 million of outstanding principal and
accrued interest was forgiven related to subordinated debentures issued by the
Company in exchange for 5% of the royalties the Company receives from its
present and future licenses through the year 2001. The future cash payments
related to the payments owed to the former debentureholder are currently
indeterminate and may exceed the carrying value of the debentures prior to the
debt being forgiven. Therefore, the Company has deferred the recognition of any
gain as a result of the debt being forgiven until such time as the future cash
payments become estimable.
4. CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND COMMON STOCK
Convertible Preferred Stock
The preferred stock is divided into Series A and B preferred stock as
follows:

The holders of Series A and B preferred stock are entitled to
noncumulative dividends, as declared by the Board of Directors out of legally
available funds, at a rate of $0.2124 and $0.25 per share, per annum,
respectively. After payment of the dividend preferences and payment of
noncumulative dividends to the holders of common stock, as declared by the Board
of Directors out of legally available funds, at a rate of $0.10 per share, per
annum, the preferred stock shall participate, as if converted on a
share-for-share basis with common stock, as to any dividends paid by the
Company. Such dividends are noncumulative.
F-11
<PAGE> 30
CENSTOR CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
Series A and B preferred stock are convertible at any time after the
date of issuance into common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment
for certain subsequent dilutive stock issuances. In addition, the Series A and B
preferred stock will automatically convert into common stock upon the closing of
an underwritten public offering of the Company's common stock at not less than
$4.00 per share, which results in gross proceeds of not less than $10 million,
or in the event of an affirmative vote of the holders of at least 51% of Series
A and B preferred stock.
Upon liquidation, the Series B preferred shareholders are entitled to
receive an amount equal to $2.50 per share plus the aggregate amount of any
declared but unpaid dividends, after which the Series A preferred shareholders
are entitled to receive an amount equal to $2.124 per share plus the aggregate
amount of any declared but unpaid dividends. After the distributions above have
been made, remaining amounts shall be distributed among the holders of Series A
and B preferred stock and common stock pro rata, based on the number of shares
of common stock held by each shareholder, assuming conversion of all preferred
stock. Preferred shareholders participate in the voting rights of the Company as
if their shares were converted to common stock.
Warrants to Purchase Preferred Stock
At June 30, 1998, certain of the Company's former lessors held warrants
to purchase 301,318 shares of the Company's Series B preferred stock,
exercisable at $2.50 per share, through the later of September 2003 or five
years after the closing of a public offering of the Company's common stock.
At June 30, 1998, the Company's primary bank held warrants to purchase
approximately 110,000 shares of the Company's preferred stock at the lower of
$2.50 or the share price of the next security issued by the Company, exercisable
from November 2000 through February 2001.
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
At June 30, 1998, one of the Company's former lessors held warrants to
purchase 80,000 shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable at $2.50 per
share through the later of January 2005 or five years after the closing of a
public offering of the Company's common stock.

5. INCOME TAXES
Income tax expenses for fiscal 1996 and 1998 consist of foreign
withholding taxes on license revenue, and income tax expense for fiscal 1997
consists of a provision for alternative minimum taxes.
Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets for federal
and state income taxes are as follows:

(Continued)
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had federal and state net operating
losses of approximately $83 million and $31 million, respectively, expiring in
various years beginning in 1999 through 2012. The Company also has federal and
state credit carryforwards of approximately $3 million and $1.5 million,
respectively, expiring in various years beginning in 1999 through 2010.
Tax law provides that the use of net operating loss and credit
carryforwards is limited if there is a substantial change in the ownership of
the Company. Due to prior years' equity transactions, such a change has
occurred. Approximately $62 million of federal net operating loss and
substantially all credit carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation. The
annual limitation is approximately $1.2 million per year. The balance of $21
million of federal net operating loss carryforwards can be used without
limitation. Similar limitations apply to state carryforwards.
