ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL

         Morlex, Inc. (the "Company", "Morlex" or the "Registrant") was 
incorporated in the State of Colorado on April 23, 1986. In January 1987,
Morlex, in a stock-for-stock exchange (the "Stock Exchange"), acquired America
OnLine, Inc. ("AOL#1"), a then wholly owned subsidiary of InfoSource Information
Service, Inc. ("InfoSource"). The Company changed its name from Morlex to
America Online, Inc. on July 17, 1987 (the "Name Change").

         Prior to incorporation, the Company had no prior operating history and
was formed as what is commonly known as a blind pool. Since the termination of
the business of the former AOL#1, the Company has been seeking the acquisition
of, or merger with, an existing company. The Company's business history since
its incorporation is as follows:

         On September 10, 1986, the Company filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a Registration Statement on Form S-18
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), relating to
an offering of up to 5,000,000 Units. In December 1986, the Company consummated
the offering, having received net offering proceeds aggregating $248,400.00.

         In January 1987, the Company acquired AOL#1 in the Stock Exchange, as a
result of which AOL#1 became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in
exchange for 85,000,000 shares of Company stock which were issued to InfoSource
for all the shares of AOL#1.

         On July 17, 1987, a special meeting of stockholders of the Company was
held to change the name of Morlex to America Online, Inc. The proposal to change
the name was approved and the Company's name was thereupon changed.

         On March 1, 1988, the Board of Directors approved the cancellation of a
$30,000.00 debt to InfoSource by issuing 30,000,000 shares of the Company to
InfoSource. All 115,000,000 shares previously issued to InfoSource (including
such 30,000,000 shares and the 85,000,000 shares granted to InfoSource pursuant
to the Stock Exchange) were returned to the Company's treasury as issued but no
longer outstanding shares.

         On December 28, 1992, the Company terminated the business of AOL#1 and
a Certificate of Dissolution of AOL#1 was filed with the Secretary of State of
the State of Colorado. Since that time, the Company has had no active business.


                                        2

<PAGE>

         On April 24, 1998, the Board of Directors, by unanimous written consent
in lieu of a special meeting, resolved to amend the Company's Articles of
Incorporation to change the name of the Company back to Morlex, Inc. in order to
remove any confusion between the Company and the Internet company of the same
name.

         On May 15, 1998, the shareholders of the Company, by majority vote,
approved the amendment and name change at a meeting called for that purpose. The
amendment was filed with the Secretary of State of Colorado on June 2, 1998,
upon which the name of the Company became Morlex, Inc.

PRIVATE PLACEMENTS

         The Company completed two private placements of its Common Stock, par
value $.0001 per share, in December 1997 and July 1998. In December 1997,
Charles T. Gould, a director, purchased 35,970,000 shares of Common Stock in
exchange for the cancellation of $49,191.00 of indebtedness of the Company to
Mr. Gould. In July 1998, Steven J. Goodman, a director and Secretary of the
Company, and Lawrence E. Kaplan, a director and President of the Company, each
purchased 94,260,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for $3,000.00 each in
cash and $6,246.00 each in previous services rendered, or an aggregate of
188,520,000 shares of Common Stock with an aggregate purchase price of $6,000.00
in cash and $12,852.00 in previous services rendered. The Company currently has
virtually no cash or other assets. As a result, Messrs. Kaplan, Goodman and
Gould now own an aggregate of 90% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock.

RESIGNATION OF DIRECTORS

         In July, 1998, Kaylene Veron and Lannelle Lancaster resigned as 
directors of the Company. Mr. Gould, the remaining director, thereupon elected
Messrs. Goodman and Kaplan as directors. These directors thereupon elected Mr.
Kaplan as President and Treasurer, and Mr. Goodman as Secretary of the Company.

SELECTION OF OPPORTUNITIES

         The analysis of new business opportunities has and will be undertaken
by or under the supervision of the officers and directors of the Registrant. The
Registrant has unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing and participating
in potential business opportunities. In its efforts to analyze potential
acquisition targets, the Registrant will consider the following kinds of
factors:

         (a)      Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated
                  market expansion or new products;


                                        3


<PAGE>


         (b)      Competitive position as compared to other firms of similar
                  size and experience within the industry segment, as well as
                  within the industry as a whole;

         (c)      Strength and diversity of management, either in place or 
                  scheduled for recruitment;

         (d)      Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required
                  funds to be provided by the Registrant or from operations,
                  through the sale of additional securities, through joint
                  ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources;

         (e)      The cost of participation by the Registrant as compared to the
                  perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials;

         (f)      The extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced;

         (g)      The accessibility of required management expertise, personnel,
                  raw materials, services, professional assistance and other
                  required items; and

         (h)      Other relevant factors.

         In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be
controlling, management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances
and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and
available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many
different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will
make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business
opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to the Registrant's extremely
limited capital available for investigation and management's limited experience
in business analysis, the Registrant may not discover or adequately evaluate
adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.

FORM OF ACQUISITION

         The manner in which the Registrant participates in an opportunity will
depend upon the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of
the Registrant and the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative
negotiating strength of the Registrant and such promoters.

         It is likely that the Registrant will acquire its participation in a
business opportunity through the issuance of common stock or other securities of
the Registrant. Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted,
it should be noted that in certain circumstances the criteria for determining
whether or not an acquisition is a so-called "tax free" reorganization under
Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
depends upon the issuance to the shareholders of the acquired company of at
least 80 percent of the common stock of the combined entities immediately
following the reorganization. If a

                                        4


<PAGE>

transaction were structured to take advantage of these provisions rather than
other "tax free" provisions provided under the Code, all prior shareholders
would retain 20% or less of the total issued and outstanding shares. This could
result in substantial additional dilution to the equity of those who were
shareholders of the Registrant prior to such reorganization.

         The present shareholders of the Registrant will likely not have control
of a majority of the voting shares of the Registrant following a reorganization
transaction. As part of such a transaction, all or a majority of the
Registrant's directors may resign and new directors may be appointed without any
vote by shareholders.

         In the case of an acquisition, the transaction may be accomplished upon
the sole determination of management without any vote or approval by
shareholders. In the case of a statutory merger or consolidation involving the
Company, it will likely be necessary to call a shareholders' meeting and obtain
the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares. The
necessity to obtain such shareholder approval may result in delay and additional
expense in the consummation of any proposed transaction and will also give rise
to certain appraisal rights to dissenting shareholders. Most likely, management
will seek to structure any such transaction so as not to require shareholder
approval.

         It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business
opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant
agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial
management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys
and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business
opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation would
not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the
participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that
transaction may result in the loss to the Registrant of the related costs
incurred.

EMPLOYEES

         The Registrant currently has no employees.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         The Company neither rents nor owns any properties. The Company
currently has no policy with respect to investments or interests in real estate,
real estate mortgages or securities of, or interests in, persons primarily
engaged in real estate activities.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are not presently any pending legal proceedings to which the
Registrant is a party or as to which any of its property is subject.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
         None.

                                     PART II

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS

    A.   Market for Common Stock. The Company is not aware of any market 
activity in its stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

    B. Holders. As of March 30, 1999, there were approximately 276 holders of
314,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

    C. Dividends. The Registrant has not paid any cash dividends during either
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 or December 31, 1998 and does not
anticipate or contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. It is the
present intention of management to utilize all available funds for the
development of the Registrant's business.

ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF
OPERATION

         The Registrant was formed on April 23, 1986 for the purpose of
investing in any and all types of assets, properties and businesses. On
September 10, 1986, the Commission granted effectiveness to a Registration
Statement on Form S-18, filed by the Registrant in the Colorado Regional Office.
The Plan of Operation of the Registrant is briefly described below and further
described in Item 1 of this Form 10-KSB.

         As of December 31, 1998, the Registrant had cash of $0 and no other
assets. As of December 31, 1998, the Registrant had total liabilities of $0 and
total stockholders equity of $0. As of December 31, 1997, the Registrant had
cash of $0 and no other assets. As of December 31, 1997, the Registrant had
total liabilities of $0 and total stockholders equity of $0. Prior to the
consummation of a potential business acquisition as described in Item 1 of this
Form 10-KSB, management does not expect that the Registrant will have any
significant capital requirements or will purchase any significant equipment or
that there will be significant changes in the number of Registrant's employees.

           The Registrant has not commenced any active operations as of the date
hereof except for the registration and sale of its securities. The Registrant's
assets consist of a limited amount of cash. No revenue has been generated by the
Registrant since the termination of the business of


                                        6


<PAGE>

AOL#1. The Registrant will not have significant operations until, if ever, such
time as it effects an acquisition.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no assets. The significant
amount of capital necessary to acquire and develop a successful business in
today's economy will limit the Company's ability to locate one suitable for
acquisition or merger. Given the limited amount of working capital, the
potential venture is likely to involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a
company which is not seeking immediate substantial amounts of cash but one which
desires to establish a public trading market for its shares. There can be no
assurance that the Company will ever consummate such a transaction. It is
possible that the Company will require additional financing to expand and fund
any business which it acquires or establishes. If additional funds are required,
there can be no assurance given that additional financing will be available on
commercially reasonable terms or otherwise.

PLAN OF OPERATION

         The Company has not realized any revenues from operations, and its plan
of operation for the next twelve months shall be to continue its efforts to
locate suitable acquisition or merger candidates. Although it is currently
anticipated that the Company can satisfy its cash requirements, and that no
additional funds need be raised, for at least the next twelve months, the
Company can provide no assurance that it can continue to satisfy its cash
requirements for such period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company has not conducted any active operations in the past fiscal
year, except for its efforts to locate suitable acquisition or merger
transactions. No revenue has been generated by the Company during such period,
and it is unlikely the Company will have any revenues unless it is able to
effect an acquisition of, or merger with, an operating company, of which there
can be no assurance.

Mr. Gould. In July 1998, Steven J. Goodman, a director and Secretary of the
Company, and Lawrence E. Kaplan, a director and President of the Company, each
purchased 94,260,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for $3,000.00 each in
cash and $6,246.00 each in previous services rendered, or an aggregate of
188,520,000 shares of Common Stock with an aggregate purchase price of $6,000.00

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors
Morlex, Inc. (formerly America OnLine, Inc.)


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Morlex, Inc. (formerly
America OnLine, Inc.) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the statements of
operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended. 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 audits 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 above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Morlex, Inc. (formerly America
OnLine, Inc.), at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of
operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended 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
and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter 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

NOTE 1  -  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on April
23, 1986. The primary activity of the Company was to seek merger or acquisition
candidates.

As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred net losses for the
last several years and has no working capital and has accumulated a deficit of
$326,960; it is management's assertion that these circumstances may hinder the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this report,
management has not developed a formal plan to raise funds for neither the
Company's short or long term needs.

The Company successfully completed a public stock offering in December 1986.
Proceeds to the Company, net of direct registration and underwriting fees,
amounted to $248,400. It has had minimal operations over the last several years.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

Net loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding.

ESTIMATES

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 could differ form those estimates.

INCOME TAXES

The Company has a remaining net operating loss carryforward of approximately
$300,000 expiring principally in 2002 and 2003. However, the Company's ability
to utilize such losses to offset future taxable income is subject to various
limitations imposed by the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue
Service. A portion of the Company's net operating losses are limited each year
to offset future taxable income, if any, due to the change of ownership in the
Company's outstanding shares of common stock.

NOTE 2  -  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had accrued certain amounts due to one of its major shareholders for
payment of consulting fees, rent and other administrative expenses. In December,
1997, these amounts ($49,191) were converted to 35,970,000 shares of common
stock.
