             Aqua Clara Bottling & Distribution, Inc. And Subsidiary

            Notes To The Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission for reporting on Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, certain principles for
complete financial statement are not applied within these statements. They have
been prepared on a consistent basis including normal recurring adjustments and
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
related notes contained in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended April 3,
1999.

The results of operations for the nine month period ended January 1, 2000 are
not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the entire year.

Organization, Background, Sale of Assets, and Going Concern

On August 17, 1995, Pocotopaug Investment, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as
"Pocotopaug") was incorporated under the laws of Florida for the purpose of
raising capital to fund the development of products for subsequent entry into
the bottled water market.

On July 29, 1996, Aqua Clara Bottling & Distribution, Inc. (hereinafter referred
to as "Aqua Clara" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Colorado
for the purpose of raising capital to fund the development of products for
subsequent entry into the bottled water industry.

In December 1996, the stockholders of Pocotopaug gained control of Aqua Clara
and Aqua Clara acquired Pocotopaug in a business combination accounted for as a
reorganization of Pocotopaug. Pocotopaug became a wholly owned subsidiary of
Aqua Clara through the exchange of 1,690,122 shares of Aqua Clara's common stock
for all 1,000,000 shares of the outstanding stock of Pocotopaug. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements are based on the assumption that
the Companies were combined for all periods presented.

During the year ended April 3, 1999 the Company began producing 20oz bottles of
oxygenated water. The Company will need to generate additional sales or obtain
additional financing to fund its operations. These factors, combined with the
fact that the Company has not generated any positive cash flows from operations,
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets or amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company
cannot continue in existence.

In March 1999 the Company entered into an agreement with a major distributor in
the northeast United States for distribution of the 20oz. bottles of oxygenated
water. The terms and conditions of the Company's agreement with this distributor
have been revised to reflect new marketing approaches of both companies.
Effective January 1, 2000 the distributor will no longer have exclusive sales
rights to the following states: PA, MD, DE, VA, NJ, NY, CT, VT, MA, RI, ME, NH,
and the District of Columbia, however the distributor will continue to purchase
from the Company and distribute the Aqua Clara brand throughout the U. S. as
they deem appropriate.

Subsequent to April 3, 1999 the Company raised $1,150,000 through the issuance
of a Secured 8% Series B Convertible Debenture. The proceeds from the debenture
were used to retire the building's mortgage and the 90-day note to stockholders.
The remainder of the proceeds were used to fund operations.


<PAGE>

Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aqua Clara
Bottling & Distribution, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pocotopaug
Investments, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.

The financial statements for previous years reflect the Company in a
developmental stage. The financial statements for the current period no longer
present the Company in this developmental stage.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires 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 may differ from those estimates.

During the quarter ended January 1, 2000, the Company implemented a change in
the closing dates of its accounting periods whereby its fiscal quarter terms
will vary in length in two four week terms followed by one five week term,
commonly known as "4-4-5." The Company adopted this policy to facilitate a
higher degree of consistency with its operational processes. The projected
year-end of April 1, 2000 remains unchanged. The results of this impact are
discussed later.

Cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial
statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective income tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized as income in the period that included the enactment date.

The Company charges to retained earnings and credits its additional paid-in
capital for the amortization of the intrinsic value of the conversion feature of
its preferred stock in accordance with the statements issued by the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

Shares of common stock issued for other than cash have been assigned amounts
equivalent to the estimated fair value of the service received until the time
the Company's stock began trading. At that time, the Company valued the
transactions based on quoted prices. The Company records shares as outstanding
at the time the Company becomes contractually obligated to issue shares.

Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated
by the straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Property under capital leases is amortized over the shorter of the lease terms
or the estimated economic life of the property.

Fair value estimates discussed in these notes are based upon certain market
assumptions and pertinent information available to management. The respective
carrying value of certain financial instruments on the balance sheet approximate
their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, investment
securities, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. Fair values were assumed to
approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are
short-term in nature or they are receivable or payable on demand. The fair value
of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based upon the quoted market prices
for the same or similar issues or the current rates offered to the Company for
debt of the same remaining maturities.

Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each period. The Company implemented SFAS No. 128 "Earnings
Per Share" during the year ended April 4, 1998.


<PAGE>

In computing dilutive earnings per share, the following were excluded because
their effects were antidilutive.

         Year ended April 3, 1999 - Preferred shares convertible into common
         stock and 2,173,382 contingently issuable shares.

The Company has reviewed its long-lived assets for impairment and has determined
that no adjustments to the carrying value of long-lived assets is required.

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of stock issued in lieu of cash compensation
for the performance of professional services including marketing and advertising
of the Company, public relations, and as compensation to members of the board of
directors.

Due to stockholders consists of notes payable and due upon demand. Interest on
these notes accrues at rates between 5% to 8%.

Long-term debt at January 1, 2000 consists of:

                  Note payable:  Secured 8% Series B Convertible Debenture was
                  raised in June 1999. The note will be converted into common
                  stock.

Commitments and Contingencies

Both of the Company's preferred stock and debentures offer conversion options at
the election of the shareholder or debenture holder. At January 1, 2000, the
Company had received conversion requests from both its Preferred A shareholders
and Series B Debenture holders in excess of the available shares required to
execute these conversions. The Company is therefore unable to fulfill the
requests because it has exhausted all authorized common shares. Likewise, the
Company has received notices of the exercise of options that the Company is
unable to fulfill for the same reasons.

A special meeting of the shareholders of record on January 18, 2000 has been
called for on March 7, 2000 to consider proposals to raise the Company's
authorized capitalization from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000 common shares, and to
amend the articles of incorporation to modify the indemnification of directors,
officers, and others. The Board of Directors has recommended approval of both
proposals.

                                       Of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's sales commenced in April 1997, with the introduction of its
5-gallon bottled water service. In the year ended April 4, 1998, the Company had
$135,710 in sales from this business. Revenues were comprised of cooler rentals
and water sales, which terminated in March, 1998. With the proceeds from its
offering of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company entered the PET bottled water
market. The sales for the fiscal year ending April 3, 1999, are $184,952. The
lower than expected sales amount is the result of the Company's inability to
find major retailers and distributors to purchase large quantities of product.

The Company's sales comparisons to previous years will not be an indicator of
any future growth patterns because the Company was still in the development
stage of launching its new product.

As discussed earlier, the Company instituted a change in its monthly accounting
periods with no corresponding change in the projected year end date. However, as
a result of this change there were certain impacts on the quarterly financial
statements presented in this report which do not lend themselves to comparisons
with previous periods. A revision of estimated costs of both general and
administrative expenses and operational costs were adopted and may
disproportionately burden the current quarter because of the cumulative effect
of this change. Prospectively, the Company does not expect to incur similar
adjustments.

The gross loss for the quarterly period ended January 1, 2000 was $57,702 with
general and administrative, and selling expenses period totaling $489,543. The
gross profit for the nine month period ended January 1, 2000 was $20,003, with
corresponding general and administrative, and selling expenses of $1,398,523.

Non-recurring expenses and credits for reductions in expenses for the fiscal
year ended April 1, 2000 include $200,000 for generation of funding for the
Series B Debenture; the mortgage payoff of $264,097; settlements of certain
claims against the Company of $118,102; registration and interest penalties
associated with the Series B Debenture in the amount of $104,463; and the write
off of certain notes payable recorded by the Company of $108,818 for which the
Company has determined it is not liable. The Company wrote off an asset of
$9,195 associated with the sale of its five-gallon water business.

The Company intends to increase spending over the next six months in
advertising, marketing and distribution prior to the receipt of significant
revenues. There can be no assurance as to when, if ever, the Company will
realize significant operating revenues or attain profitability.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In the current fiscal year, the Company raised $1,150,000 through the issuance
of a Class B Preferred Debenture. The proceeds of this raise were used to retire
the first mortgage on the plant and real estate and the demand note described in
the above paragraph. The remainder of the funds raise will be used to finance
continued operation of the Company.

The Company established two revolving lines of credit, each in the amount of
$150,000, one from a shareholder and the other from an officer of the Company.
The Company also received a $75,000 demand note from the same corporate officer.

The Company has no plans or arrangements in place with respect to additional
capital sources at this time. The Company has no significant lines of credit
available to it at this time. There are no assurances that additional capital
will be available to the Company when or if required.

Although the Company expects to have continued losses in the 4th quarter of
fiscal year 2000, management believes that the losses will continue to decrease
and a break-even point could be reached in the near term. Inflation has not had
a significant impact on the Company's results of operations.

BUSINESS AND PLAN OF OPERATION

GENERAL

Prior information pertaining to Aqua Clara Bottling & Distribution, Inc. can be
found in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended April 3, 1999.

During the year ended April 4, 1998, the Company began its five-gallon water
business. In February, 1998, the Company sold this portion of the business. The
assets disposed of consist of certain receivables, a vehicle, and various
equipment used in the Company's bottled water business. The total sales price
was approximately $352,394, which included the assumption of installment notes
payable of approximately $149,782 by the acquiring company.

During the year ending April 3, 1999, the Company began producing 20-oz. bottles
of oxygenated water packaged in a PET container. The Company's oxygen enriched
water contains approximately 24 parts per million of oxygen. Normal tap water
contains approximately 3 parts per million of dissolved oxygen. As such, the
company's oxygen enriched bottled water contains approximately 800% more oxygen.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Oxygen is currently in the public view as an additive to a range of consumer
products. There are currently oxygen bars in Toronto, New York City and the Los
Angeles area. Oxygen in beverages has received recent widespread media coverage
through television, radio and print media.

PRODUCTS

Oxygen Enriched Bottled Water. The Company's primary focus will be the
production/distribution of oxygen enriched bottled water in small package, PET,
containers ranging in size from .5 liter to 1.5 liters. The points of purchase
will include super markets, convenience stores, mass merchants, health food
stores and spas and hotel resorts.

The Company's oxygen enriched bottled water is made by combining super purified
water and oxygen. Through water purification processing the source water will be
reduced to 1-2 parts per million of total dissolved solids and then oxygen is
introduced through a unique, proprietary process. As a point of reference, the
Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) definition of distilled water is 5 parts
per million or less of total dissolved solids. As such, the base water is of
distilled quality, although the distillation process is not used.

The Company's market research, undertaken by a non-affiliated research firm, has
indicated that no specific medical claims have to be made to consumers with
regard to its product. According to this market research the public will readily
accept the necessity and benefits of both highly purified water and oxygen.
Oxygen is literally the breath of life; oxygen is a natural energizer and body
purifier. Oxygen is odorless and tasteless, as well as non-carbonated. As such,
the Company's water tastes like a fine premium bottled water - light and crisp.
Oxygen does not produce the unhealthy "jolt" associated with caffeine products.
Rather, it is believed to create a feeling of physical well being and mental
clarity.

There is one significant competitor, Clearly Canadian, producing oxygen enriched
bottled water. The Company also knows of eight other entities that are
attempting to produce and distribute oxygen enriched bottled water. Except for
Clearly Canadian, none of the well-established traditional bottled water
producers has an oxygen enriched bottled water product. There can be no
assurance that the Company's products will achieve consumer acceptance. Consumer
preferences are inherently subjective and subject to change.


<PAGE>

Initially, the Company will not carbonate or flavor its water. After the
successful introduction of the Company's oxygen enriched bottled water product,
the introduction of a new product with natural flavoring or carbonation will be
considered. Likewise, the Company will consider the infusion of beneficial
herbs. The Company will also consider the production of super oxygen enriched
sports drinks, providing even higher levels of oxygen, to be marketed at a
higher price. The Company utilizes a distinctive bottle and label for its water
products.

STRATEGY

The company's objective is to build product markets in Florida and then expand
nationally. To that end, the Company has appointed Crossmark one of the nations
largest consumer packaged goods sales and marketing companies to represent their
product throughout the state of Florida.

Crossmark currently impacts three billion retail transactions and generates $12
billion dollars in annual sales. They currently have over 6,300 sales,
merchandising and marketing professionals throughout the United States focused
on building the brands they represent. Crossmark will be marketing and
distributing Aqua Clara Oxygen Enriched Purified premium bottled water to some
of the largest retail food stores, wholesale suppliers, and drugstore chains
throughout Florida including Publix, Winn Dixie, Albertson's, Kash N' Karry,
Associated Grocers, Fleming, Eckerd's and Walgreens. A sample of some of the
brand names Crossmark currently represents include Nabisco Foods, Pillsbury
Company, Reynolds Metals, Inc., L'Oreal, Royal Oak Charcoal, and now Aqua Clara.

Crossmark offers Aqua Clara the opportunity to build strong brand recognition
through Crossmark's superior market presentation and support. Through their
category management plans, local event marketing plans and effective
merchandising plans, Aqua Clara expects to achieve stronger retail distribution
that will lead to building their brand and category.

On December 13, 1999 the Company announced the launch of Aqua Clara/FLA USA
branded bottled water in a first-of-its-kind marketing partnership. The
Company, VISIT FLORIDA and Florida Media Inc. have teamed up to jointly and
exclusively market a new bottled water brand. Aqua Clara - FLAUSA. This brand
will be primarily sold in Florida and will add the hospitality market as a new
sales target for the Company. VISIT FLORIDA, the state of Florida's official
tourism marketing organization, has endorsed the product with its FLA USA logo
which is displayed on the front of every Aqua Clara/FLA USA water bottle. The
Company has already begun its distribution into the Florida market with the
annual Florida Strawberry Festival as the event's official water provider. The
Festival, is a Florida is one of the largest festivals in the South and will be
held March 2 - 12,2000.

PRODUCTION

The Company currently operates out of a facility with approximately 14,000 sq.
ft. under roof with an exposed four-bay loading dock sitting on 2.1 acres in
Clearwater, Florida. Approximately 2,400 sq. ft. is utilized for office
facilities, with the balance predominantly used for bottling and warehouse
operations. The remodeling of the building was completed in fiscal year 1999 for
approximately $600,000.

The Company finished installation and startup of a medium-sized bottling
facility during the fiscal year ended April 3, 1999, at a total cost of
approximately $750,000. The bottling line is rated at 160 bottles/min., or,
practically, 1,080 24-bottle cases of 20-oz. bottled water each shift.

Upon delivery to the Company's facilities, the source water is passed through a
number of filtration, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis processes by which it is
reduced to a very pure 1 - 2 parts per million of dissolved solids. Water is
oxygenated using the purest oxygen commercially available in a proprietary
process. The water is then treated with ultraviolet light, which effectively
kills bacteria and other micro-


<PAGE>

organisms before delivery to the bottling area where the various products are
filled and capped. The filling room is supplied with pressurized air from
high-capacity, high-efficiency particulate filters, resulting in a clean filling
and capping environment.

The manufacturing process is designed to be highly automated. Bottles are
mechanically de-palletized, cleaned, filled and capped. The filled bottles are
automatically coded, labeled, tamper-banded (if applicable), and packed in
cases. After palletizing and stretch-wrapping, the product is either loaded
directly onto a truck for immediate shipment or is stored in the warehouse
facility for future shipment.

The Company maintains exacting internal quality control standards. Each shift's
production is tested in Company laboratory facilities according to FDA and IBWA
standards, and random samples are submitted regularly to an independent
laboratory for confirmation testing

WATER SOURCES

Under FDA guidelines, bottled water must contain fewer than 500 parts per
million (ppm) of total dissolved solids. Varying amounts and types of dissolved
solids provide different tastes to water. The Company uses FDA and International
Bottled Water Association approved water sources.

COMPETITION

The bottled water industry is highly competitive. According to "Beverage
Marketing", there are approximately 350 bottled water filling locations in the
United States with sales increasingly concentrated among the larger firms.
According to "Beverage Marketing", the ten largest bottled water companies
accounted for approximately 58.4% of wholesale dollar sales in 1996. Nearly all
of the Company's competitors are more experienced, have greater financial and
management resources and have more established proprietary trademarks and
distribution networks than the Company. On a national basis, the Company
competes with bottled water companies such as The Perrier Group of America, Inc.
(which includes Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water, Poland Spring, Ozarka Spring
Water, Zephyrhills Natural Spring Water, Deer Park, Great Bear and Ice Mountain)
and Great Brands of Europe (which includes Evian Natural Spring Water and Dannon
Natural Spring Water). The Company also competes with numerous regional bottled
water companies located in the United States and Canada. Aqua Clara has chosen
to compete by focusing on a higher quality oxygen enriched purified drinking
water, innovative packaging and customer service.

SEASONALITY

The market for bottled water is seasonal, with approximately 70% of sales taking
place in the seven months of April through October. As a result of seasonality,
the Company's staffing and working capital requirements will vary during the
year.

TRADEMARKS

The Company has registrations in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the
trademarks that it uses, including Aqua Clara. The Company believes that its
common law and registered trademarks have significant value and goodwill and
that some of these trademarks are instrumental in its ability to create demand
for and market its products. There can be no assurance that the Company's common
law or registered trademarks do not or will not violate the proprietary rights
of others, that they would be upheld if challenged or that the Company would, in
such an event, not be prevented from using the trademarks, any of which could
have an adverse effect on the Company.


<PAGE>

REGULATION

The Company's operations are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws
and regulations relating to its bottling operations, including the identity,
quality, packaging and labeling of its bottled water. The Company's bottled
water must satisfy FDA standards, which may be periodically revised, for
chemical and biological purity. The Company's bottling operations must meet FDA
"good manufacturing practices" and the labels affixed to the Company's products
are subject to FDA restrictions on health and nutritional claims. In addition,
bottled water must originate from an "approved source" in accordance with
federal and state standards.

State health and environmental agencies, such as the Florida Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services also regulate water quality and the
manufacturing practices of producers.

The Company's products satisfy all federal and state requirements and the
Company is proceeding with applications to obtain distribution permits in all 50
states.

These laws and regulations are subject to change, however, and there can be no
assurance that additional or more stringent requirements will not be imposed on
the Company's operations in the future. Although the Company believes that its
water supply, products and bottling facilities are and will be in substantial
compliance with all applicable governmental regulations, failure to comply with
such laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings except as set forth
below.

Civil litigation in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit, in and for
Pinellas County, Florida, was filed by John S. McAvoy, Plaintiff vs. Aqua Clara
Bottling & Distribution, Inc., Olde Monmouth Stock Transfers, a New Jersey
Corporation, John. C. Plunkett, Rand L. Gray and Robert Guthrie, Defendant, Case
No. 99-004394-CI-011. The complaint is multi-part claiming Declaratory Relief;
Injunctive Relief; Breach of Fiduciary and Statutory Duties; Breach of Contract
Unpaid Promissory Notes; Breach of Contract Unpaid Accrued Salary. The Plaintiff
seeks removal of the restrictive legends on stock held and $67,973.79 in payment
of Notes and Accrued Salary. The matter is pending mediation.


The Company's former director and officer, Rand Gray, has asserted a claim that
the Company committed to certain stock payments as compensation. The Company has
denied the claim.

                              Changes In Securities

Secured 8% Series B Convertible Debenture

The Company issued 43 Secured 8% Series B Convertible Debenture shares. The B
Convertible Debenture is convertible at the option of the holder at any time
prior to payment in full of the principal balance of the Debenture, to convert
the Debenture in whole only, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock, no par value, of the Company (the Common Stock) at a conversion price
equal to 65% of the three day average closing bid price prior to the date of
conversion. At the Company's option, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest
due as of the Conversion Date shall not be subject to conversion but instead may
be paid in cash as of the Conversion Date. If the Corporation elects to convert
the amount of accrued and unpaid interest at the Conversion Date into Common
Stock, the Common Stock issued to the Holder shall be valued at the Conversion
Price. The number of shares of Common Stock due upon conversion shall be (i) the
face amount of the Debenture divided by (ii) the applicable Conversion Price.

Preferred A stock

The Company's Board of Directors has authority, without action by the
shareholders, to issue all or any portion of the authorized but unissued
preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the voting rights,
preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights, and other rights
of such series. The Company considers it desirable to have preferred stock
available to provide increased flexibility in structuring possible future
acquisitions and financing and in meeting corporate needs which may arise. If
opportunities arise that would make desirable the issuance of preferred stock
through either public offering or private placements, the provisions for
preferred stock in the Company's Articles of Incorporation would avoid the
possible delay and expense of a shareholder's meeting, except as may be required
by law or regulatory authorities. Issuance of the preferred stock could result,
however, in a series of securities outstanding that will have certain
preferences with respect to dividends and liquidation over the Common Stock
which would result in dilution of the income per share and net book value of the
Common Stock. Issuance of additional Common Stock pursuant to any conversion
right, which may be attached to the terms of any series of preferred stock, may
also result in dilution of the net income per share and the net book value of
the Common Stock. The specific terms of any series of preferred stock will
depend primarily on market conditions, terms of a proposed acquisition or
financing, and other factors existing at the time of issuance. Therefore, it is
not possible at this time to determine in what respect a particular series of
preferred stock will be superior to the Company's Common Stock or any other
series of preferred stock, which the Company may issue. The Board of Directors
may issue additional preferred tock in future financing, but has no current
plans to do so at this time.

The issuance of Preferred Stock could have the effect of making it more
difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of the outstanding voting
stock of the Company.
