                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         For the Period Ending March 31, 1998
                                     (Unaudited)

1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
     
     Although unaudited, the interim financial statements in this report reflect
     all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the
     opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
     covered and of the financial condition of the Company at the interim
     balance sheet dates.  The results of operations for the interim periods
     presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the
     entire year.
     
     The year-end balance sheet information was derived from audited financial
     statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally
     accepted accounting principles.  These financial statements should be read
     in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes
     thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
     ended December 31, 1997.
     
     The Company has experienced recurring losses from operations and has an
     accumulated deficit of $15,937,790 at March 31, 1998.  These matters raise
     substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
     concern.
     
     PROPOSED BUSINESS PLANS:
     
     As of March 31, 1998, the Company has no active business operations. 
     Management intends to attempt to seek to have the Company enter into
     further business operations.  Management is currently reviewing various
     alternatives relating to further business activities for the Company, but
     no specific business activities have been identified and no agreements or
     agreements in principle have been entered into whereby the Company will
     again be engaged in any business activities.  In addition, management has
     made no decision as to any specific industries or geographical areas where
     any such future business activities may be undertaken.  Although management
     believes that its future business activities will be the result of the
     acquisition of an existing business, there can be no assurance with respect
     thereto and the Company may become engaged in such activities through other
     means.  Management may seek to raise additional capital to enable it to
     become engaged in further business activities to finance an acquisition of
     an existing business or it may effectuate the acquisition through a merger,
     consolidation or other issuance of shares of the Company's common stock.

                      NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
                        For the Period Ending March 31, 1998
                                    (Unaudited)
     
          
     There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in effecting
     the acquisition of any further business operations.  In addition, there can
     be no assurance that the terms of such acquisition may not be dilutive to
     the Company's existing stockholders or that such terms will be advantageous
     to the Company.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be
     successful in its attempts to enter into any further business activities.

     Until such time as the Company is successful in entering into further
     business activities, it should be expected that the Company will not
     realize any material revenues.

2.   Notes Payable:

     Notes payable consist of the following:

3.   Income Taxes:
     
     At December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for
     federal and state purposes of approximately $15,300,000 and $6,130,000
     respectively.  In addition, the Company had research and experimentation
     credit carryforwards for federal and state purposes of approximately
     $323,000 and $139,000, respectively.  The federal credit carryforward
     expires beginning in 2006.  The utilitzation of net operating losses and
     credit carryforwards may be limited under the provisions of Internal
     Revenue Code Section 382 when a change of ownership occurs.

     On March 20, 1997 the Company completed the sale, pursuant to a Stock
Purchase and Option Agreement dated July 17, 1995, of substantially all its
assets to Ballard Medical Products ("Ballard").  Reference should be made to the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 for
a description of the transaction and the Company's future business plans.  As a
result of the disposition of the Company's assets, and until such time, if ever,
that the Company enters into further business operations, the Company will not
realize any sales and does not expect to incur any related expenses.
     
          The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Financial      Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB.  In addition the Company desires to take
advantage of certain provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995 that provide a "safe harbor" for forward looking statements made by or
on behalf of the Company.  Except for the historical information contained
herein, the matters discussed herein are forward looking statements, the
accuracy of which is necessarily subject to risks and uncertainties. 
Specifically, the Company wishes to alert readers that the information set forth
in "Item 1.  Description of Business -Proposed Business Plans," and the
Company's intentions and efforts to enter into further business activities
contained herein and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 1997 are forward looking statements.  Various factors,
including the inability of management to identify, locate and acquire in a
timely manner future business activities, among other matters discussed in this
Report, may adversely affect the Company's ability to remain in existence. 
Failure to locate further business activities could lead to the dissolution of
the Company.

     Until the Company is successful in entering into further business
activities, it can be expected that its revenues will be nominal.
