TORVEC, INC.NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000

determined that Vernon and Keith Gleasman exclusively owned all of the patents in question, thereby confirming that these patents, which were assigned by them to Torvec, are the exclusive patents of the Company. The arbitrator's decision also awarded certain sums of money to McElroy Manufacturing, Inc. ("McElroy") and a 20% interest in a certain royalties received by the Gleasmans, the payment of such amounts to be due only as, if and when, royalties are paid to the
Gleasmans. The Company was not and is not a party to the arbitration.

On June 3, 1999, McElroy, by letter addressed to the Gleasman's personal counsel, demanded that the Gleasmans reimburse McElroy immediately for its expenses in the amount of $862,700, plus interest, to be paid from any
monies received by the Gleasmans on account of the subject patents including, but not limited to, 20% of all royalties or monies received by the Gleasmans from the sale of shares of stock in the Company.  Further, McElroy demanded that the Gleasmans
correct inventorship of subject patents by requesting that the Commission of Patents & Trademarks to issue a Certificate of Correction adding A.H. "Chip" McElroy, II and Dave Porter as co-inventors on the subject patents.  In addition,
McElroy has demanded that Torvec pay, out of proceeds generated by sale of its stock, the same sums demanded of the Gleasmans and notify any licensee, assignee or investor of McElroy's right to recover expenses and its 20% interest in monies received on account of the subject patents.

Management of the Company believes that the demands made by McElroy upon the Company constitute a complete misreading of the arbitrator's decision and are without merit procedurally as well as substantively, since among
other reasons, the contract was between the Gleasmans and McElroy, the Company did not participate in the arbitration proceedings and that the arbitrator's decision did not direct payment of any sums from Torvec to McElroy.

Should Company's position not prevail, it would have a significant adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of its operations.  No provision for such contingency has
been made in the accompanying financial statements.

On March 31, 2000, the court issued an order that the arbitrator clarify certain aspects of his April 22, 1999 decision.  On July 10, 2000, the arbitrator issued an "Addendum and Clarification Memorandum" awarding $360,000 to McElroy in
partial reimbursement of its expenses.  This amount is to be paid by Vernon and Keith Gleasman, not the Company.

PLAN OF OPERATION



The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in this report.  This discussion contains
certain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties.  When used in this report, the words "anticipate", "expect" and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identity such
forward-looking statements.  The Company's actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements.  Historical operating results are not necessarily indicative of the trends in
operating results for any further period.

Torvec, Inc. a New York State business corporation (the Company) was duly organized on September 25, 1996.  The Company is in the development stage, and its efforts have been
principally devoted to research and development activities and organizational efforts.

The Company's present business strategy relating to its products is (1) to provide developing country FasTrack vehicle models for marketing to potential
Asian, African, South and Central American joint venture partners; (2) to complete the installation of the Company's infinitely variable transmission into diesel-powered trucks for appropriate testing by national and state environmental agencies in the U.S. and other countries to quantify exact fuel savings and emissions levels and to
determine its potential effect on the worldwide problem of diesel engine pollutants; (3) to complete the installation of the infinitely variable transmission into the best selling automobile of a major U.S automaker that has an agreement with the Company
for an exclusive "first look" at the transmission for gasoline engine passenger cars, providing data on gasoline engine fuel mileage and emission levels; (4) to promote worldwide use of the infinitely variable transmissions for reducing diesel/gasoline
engine pollution; (5) to enter into appropriate licensing/joint working arrangements for all of the Company's products (the FasTrack vehicle, infinitely variable transmission, hydraulic pump/motor, constant velocity joint, and spherical gearing); (6) to obtain patent protection on at least four new developments and improvements
related to the Company's products described above.



The Company is continuing to implement its business plan.  The Company is engaged in discussions with a number of vehicle manufacturers to license one or more of its products and/or to
create one or more joint venture relationships.  If successful, these licenses or relationships will lead to the further development, manufacture and distribution of the Company's products, especially the FasTrack, the infinitely variable transmission and the Company's constant velocity joint.









9









The Company plans to selectively incorporate its other patented technologies, including its infinitely variable transmission, its lightweight hydraulic pump and motor, its
constant velocity joint (with its true infinite gearing based on the Company's proprietary spherical gearing assembly), into the FasTrack prototype as well as to separately commercialize each of the technologies through licensing and one or more joint venture partners.



The Company intends to begin emission and fuel economy testing of the infinitely variable transmission as installed into diesel-powered trucks, perhaps at Alfred State College, Alfred,
New York.  The Company also intends to install the infinitely variable transmission into a vehicle owned by the Company to document actual emission levels and fuel economy.  The vehicle and test results should enhance joint venture/ licensing
opportunities with major auto manufacturers throughout the world.

The Company also intends to install its constant velocity joint, including its spherical gearing assembly, into a vehicle for evaluation.  Upon satisfactory results, the Company will
present the constant velocity joint to the auto industry for possible licensing and/or joint venture arrangements.



In August, 1999, the Company established a working relationship with an international export company to solicit expressions of interest for its FasTrackä
  vehicle to form potential worldwide governmental and institutional customers.

The Company is also investigating the possibility of manufacturing the FasTrackä
 vehicle itself.  The Company is actively engaged in discussions with officials representing the City of Rochester, New York on the feasibility of locating a manufacturing facility for the Fastrack vehicle in Rochester, New York.  To this end, the Company
has and is investigating potential manufacturing sites in Rochester and has engaged in preliminary discussions with the City and a number of financial institutions to formulate a financial package which, together with government-based incentives, will
enable the Company to pursue this approach to the actual production of the vehicle.  The Company believes that it will need at least 12 to 15 million dollars in order to pursue this possibility and management is presently investigating ways in which to
acquire such monies including additional equity and/or debt financing.

On April 25, 2000, the Company inaugurated its website, www.torvec.com, for marketing, sales, education and information relating to the Company's
products.  Potential customers for the Fastrack TM may access the website to order the vehicle by depositing 10% towards the purchase price.

On June 29, 2000, the Company announced that it is licensing its patented steer drive and infinitely variable transmission to Variable Gear, LLC for the global air and marine markets.
Variable Gear will pay the Company 4% royalities for 7 years after which the Company can repurchase the license.  Variable Gear is owned 51% by Robert C. Horton, Chairman and CEO of Ultrafab, Inc. and a Company shareholder.  The Company owns the remaining
49%.

The Company commenced a private placement in May 1998 to sell 1,500,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $5.00 per share.  On September 21, 1998 the offering price of the private
placement was increased to $10.00 per share.  On November 30, 1999, the private placement was terminated.  The Company raised $500,000 from private sources during the six months ended June 30, 2000.  Management believes that such funds, plus additional
private funds, will be sufficient to sustain the Company's Plan of Operation for the next quarter.

The net loss as of June 30, 2000 as compared to June 30, 1999 includes the amortization of unearned compensatory stock.  The amortization, which is a non-cash item, amounted to $402,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $1,384,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  Also, included are consulting fees for Research and Development and general and administrative expenses in the amounts of $225,000 and $225,000
respectively, payable to the Gleasman family.  These expenses have been projected by management, and will continue to increase as the Company continues on its Plan of Operation.

Research and development expenses were $217,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $641,000 for the same period in 1999, a decrease of $424,000 primarily due to the
production of a prototype Fastrack vehicle in 1999.

Item 1.		Legal Proceedings

During 1997 certain members of the Gleasman family were named in a lawsuit seeking monetary damages of $750,000 relating to the development of certain technology as well as disputing their exclusive ownership of certain patents relating to future
Company products, namely the Torvec hydraulic pump and motor, the Torvec constant velocity joint and Torvec's spherical gearing.  In February, 1998, the court stayed all aspects of the litigation and directed the parties to arbitrate the matters in dispute.  On April 22, 1999, the arbitrator issued a nonappealable decision which
determined that Vernon and Keith Gleasman exclusively owned all three patents, thereby confirming that these patents, which were assigned by them to Torvec, are the exclusive patents of the Company.  The arbitrator's decision also awarded the sum of $862,699.61 to be paid to McElroy Manufacturing, Inc. ("McElroy") by the Gleasmans out of royalties which they may receive and awarded McElroy a 20% interest in all royalties and other
sums received by the Gleasmans, the payment of such amounts to be due only as, if and when, royalties are paid to the Gleasmans.  The Company was not and is not a party to the arbitration.

On June 3, 1999, McElroy, by letter addressed to the Gleasmans' personal counsel, demanded that the Gleasmans reimburse McElroy immediately for its expenses in the amount of $862,699.61, plus interest, to be paid
from any monies received by the Gleasmans on account of the subject patents including, but not limited to, 20 % of all royalties or  monies received by the Gleasmans from the sale of shares of stock in the Company.  Further, McElroy demanded that the
Gleasmans correct inventorship of the subject patents by requesting the Commission of Patents & Trademarks to issue a Certificate of Correction adding A.H. "Chip" McElroy, II and Dave Porter as co-inventors on the subject patents.  While correction of
inventorship was not addressed in the decision, such correction, if appropriate, is desirable and possible, and can be accomplished by application to the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks.  They do not contest the arbitrator's determination that the patents were assigned to the Gleasmans and are now owned by Torvec.  In addition, McElroy has demanded that Torvec pay, out of proceeds generated by sale of its stock, the same sums demanded of the
Gleasmans and notify any licensee, assignee or investor of McElroy's right to recover expenses and its 20% interest in monies received on account of the subject patents.

On June 15, 1999, McElroy filed its amended complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma.  There were two causes of action.  The first cause of action seeks correction of the inventorship of the subject
patents.   The second cause of action seeks an order confirming the arbitrator's award and, in addition, seeks an order directing that the Gleasmans reimburse McElroy immediately for its expenses in the amount of $862,699.61 plus interest accruing from the date of the arbitrator's award.

On March 31, 2000, the Court remanded the case to the arbitrator to clarify certain ambiguities regarding the payment and terms of the original award.   On March 31, 2000, the court issued an order that the arbitrator clarify certain aspects of his
April 22, 1999 decision.  On July 10, 2000, the arbitrator issued an "Addendum and Clarification Memorandum" awarding $360,000 to McElroy in partial reimbursement of its expenses.  This amount is to be paid by Vernon and Keith Gleasman, not the
Company.

Management of the Company believes that the demands made by McElroy upon the Company constitute a complete misreading of the arbitrator's decision and are without merit procedurally as well as substantively, since
among other reasons, the contract was between the Gleasmans and McElroy, the Company did not participate in the arbitration proceedings and that the arbitrator's decision did not direct payment of any sums from Torvec to McElroy.

Should the Company's position not prevail it would have a significant adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.  No provision for such
contingency has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

same as those of a person who is not a Member, subject to other applicable law.  No transaction with the Company shall be voidable solely because a Member has a direct or indirect interest in the transaction if either the transaction is fair to the
