ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

         The Company is a holding company and through its subsidiaries is
engaged in:

         (i) design and development of software solutions, associated hardware,
and services enabling cross PC platform connectivity, making it easier for data
and device sharing and reducing computer downtime;

         (ii) marketing and distribution of such software solutions, hardware,
and services and those of third parties, and;

         (iii) development of an Internet Web service featuring a transportable
personalized Web portal.

         The Company became publicly traded by combining with a publicly traded
corporation as follows. On June 29 1999, all former shareholders of Agate
Technologies Inc., a California corporation ("Agate-California"), were issued
shares in ARCA corporation, a New Jersey corporation ("ARCA") with no known
assets or liabilities, in exchange for the contribution of their
Agate-California shares. Each common shareholder received 1.5 ARCA common shares
for each Agate-California share exchanged. Each Series A Preferred shareholder
received an equal number of ARCA Series A Preferred Shares, which had
substantially identical rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions,
except each share is convertible into 1.5 ARCA common shares. As a result of
this transaction, shareholders of Agate California owned in excess of 90% of
ARCA's outstanding shares and Agate-California became a wholly owned subsidiary
of ARCA. Accordingly, the transaction between ARCA and Agate-California is
considered to be an acquisition of ARCA by Agate-California.

         On June 30, 1999, ARCA was merged into its other wholly owned
subsidiary, Agate Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Agate-Delaware"),
in order to re-incorporate ARCA in Delaware. Agate-Delaware has Series A
Preferred Stock that is identical in rights, preferences, privileges and
restrictions, to the ARCA Series A Preferred Stock. Each ARCA shareholder
received one share of Agate-Delaware in exchange for each ARCA share.

         The Company's principle offices are located at 519 Montague Expressway,
Milpitas, California 95035. Its telephone number is (408) 956 7950; its fax
number is (408) 956-7955 and its e-mail address is CORP@AGATETECH.COM.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

         The Company was formed in January 1996, initially focusing on
developing "plug and play" software for PCs designed to eliminate the need to
restart and reconfigure the system whenever a peripheral device is added or
changed. Hot swap or hot insertion techniques allow applications to be
instantaneously upgraded or expanded without affecting the rest of the system.
Implemented properly, the software creates more flexibility, reducing downtime
or simplifying system repair. The Company successfully developed its Tioman(TM)
softwARe, the industry's first IDE hot swap software, which was licensed to
notebook manufacturers eventually creating a standard for notebook plug and play
software. Tioman led to the development of a generic retail notebook software
called, ProSwap(TM), offering similar plug and play features across a broad
platform of notebook PCs. This achievement was significant because it enables
increased user

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

productivity, better utilization of expensive storage devices and became a core
architecture for the development of other software applications. To date, the
Company's Tioman and ProSwap software have been incorporated into over 1,000,000
notebook computers through OEM licensing agreements with notebook manufacturers
such as Hewlett Packard, Acer, IBM (Acer) NEC, Siemens and Trigem, as well as
direct Web and retail sales. In June, 1999, the Company filed a continuation to
its November, 1996, US patent application covering certain aspects of its
ProSwap technology (and specifically as it applies to IDE devices).

         Thereafter, the Company developed the Hot Data Shuttle (TM) (HDS), a
device bay which incorporates the Company's ProSwap software into a 5.25"
generic PC device bay using a proprietary designed printed circuit board (PCB)
and a programmable ASIC chip. The Company also developed a 3.5" form factor
device bay for 2.5" HDD called the Hot Data Xchange(TM) (HDX or HDXchange). Hot
Data Shuttle and Hot Data Xchange enable plug and plAy functionality on IDE mass
storage devices such as hard disk drives, zip drives and other storage media
making devices readily interchangeable across various PC makes, models and
platforms. The proprietary ASIC chip, that is the basis of the HDS and HDX
together with Tioman has broad applicability across PC platforms.

         The Company then introduced the Personal Data Carrier (TM) (PDC) in
conjunction with the HDXchange, a smaller form factor generic device bay that
makes the contents of a 2.5-inch hard drive available to both notebook and
desktop. The PDC allows one to carry up to 15 gigabytes or more of data in one's
shirt pocket making it easier to transport and access or store away in a safe.
The HDXchange's plug and play capability provided the connectivity to the
desktop making the PDC portable and ideal for sharing data or device. Access to
the data is now made immediately available via a standard PCMCIA while
connectivity to the desktop is made possible by simply plugging the Personal
Data Carrier into the Xchange bay of a PC.

         In late 1999, the Company completed the development of its HotShadow
(TM) software application that enables one's alternate or secondary storage
device to mirror or "shadow" the contents of one's primary storage devices on a
selective or ongoing basis much more rapidly than through a regular backup.
HotShadow has the ability to replicate the computer's hard disk drive in quick
time utilizing the Company's core software technology integrated with an instant
recovery capability. The HotShadow software led to the introduction of the
Disaster Recovery System (TM) (DRS), a user friendly backup software known for
its unique recovery solution. DRS is a combination of the Hot Shadow software,
ProSwap software, and the Hot Data Shuttle. DRS allows a user to recover almost
instantly from a hard disk crash by causing one's secondary storage device that
can "take over" in real time. The DRS can be configured to meet various user
needs.

DISTRIBUTION AND MANUFACTURING

         The Company incorporated a new subsidiary, ei Corporation in 1999 to
market and distribute its bundled products and solutions through selective
distribution, retail, and direct selling efforts to VARs and system integrators.
ei Corporation complements its sales efforts through a network of sales
representatives covering the markets of US, Canada and Latin America. ei
Corporation has since introduced its products through select national, regional
distributors and retailers like Fry's, MidWest Micro, D&H Distribution and
MicroCenter In the future, ei Corporation expects to expand its direct sales
through the Web and in line with this strategy, it will focus on building Web
partnership affiliations , improving its ecommerce site and extending its
product range to include Internet related storage and communication products.

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

         The Company's early revenue model was based entirely on OEM sales from
software licensing and Hot-chip integration. In 1999, it implemented its plan to
market its bundled products and solutions through selected distribution channels
and direct marketing to VARs and system integrators. This strategy, will,
however need substantial marketing funds to create name brand awareness . In
this regard, the Company is intending to seek to raise additional financing to
promote its products.

         All of the Company's hardware components are outsourced and
manufactured in cooperation with ODMs in Asia who are also allowed to resell the
products to their own customers. The Company uses its own proprietary PCB
design, ASIC chip and software.

CURRENT PRODUCTS SUMMARY

         All of Agate's products are designed to be "DataReady(TM)". Thus , they
take advantage of the plug and play capability to provide the following
characteristics:

          o    User friendly plug and play - this allows ready install/removal
               of any storage device without requiring system shutdown or
               additional knowledge of the system operation.

          o    Transportability - inherently mobile, immutable and easily
               migratable defacto standard medium.

          o    Security - enhanced through readily available auxiliary storage
               devices and data redundancy.

         Agate's products available today as described above are:

          o    Tioman - a customized "hot swap" software licensed to OEMs for
               the notebook platforms

          o    ProSwap - a generic swap software for both desktop and laptops .
               Agate has extended the plug and play, transportable and security
               features and benefits typically enjoyed with the floppy diskette
               down to the storage device layer.

          o    Hot Data Shuttle - a bundled solution built on top of the ProSwap
               hot swap engine allowing hot access to any 3.5 inch media device
               such as zip drives, super disk, and hard drives, readily
               interchangeable across personal computers without any need to
               power down. It supports Windows 95,98, and NT and Linux.

          o    Hot Data Exchange -a bundled solution built on top of the ProSwap
               hot swap engine allowing hot access to any 2.5 inch hard drive
               readily interchangeable across personal computers without any
               need to power down. It supports Windows 95,98, and NT and Linux.

          o    Hot Chip - Hot Chip is a proprietary chip which is based on the
               Company's based on the Company's , intelliswap(TM) architecture ,
               enables automatic user friendly applications for accessing data
               immediately after a device is entered into the desktop computer.
               This chip is not limited to devices but can be extended to any
               level of physical interface within the ATAPI/IDE architecture.
               This flexibility opens OEM design windows to incorporate hot
               access to docking stations and other features/functions that may
               be desirable in the future.

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

          o    Hot Shadow - a software solution designed to be used directly
               with the ProSwap software engine allowing 2nd hard drive
               mirroring and full /incremental back-up.

          o    Disaster Recovery System for Desktop and Notebook - a product
               which enables seamless system level back up and instant recovery
               functionality in a one step process. The key feature is the
               ability to trigger a storage device that takes over in real time
               within seconds.

FUTURE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

         The Company's current focus is to extend its Windows plug and play
functionality and features to the Linux platform. Other products and solutions
will then be developed on the Linux platform focussing on low-cost, ease of use,
and cross PC platform data availability. The Company intends to target PC
integrators and VAR business partners who market and distribute Linux products
and services. The development of products and services on the Linux platform
represents the Company's initiative towards the Internet and related software
solutions. The introduction and expansion of the Linux platform is therefore an
important development for the Company.

         Web2Drive ("W2D")is a new Internet development with the objective of
creating a personal web access for everyone. The objective of the W2D portal is
to enable users to have web data anywhere in the world (i) anytime you want it
(ii) as fast as you want it and (iii) and as secure as you want it.

         The Company's planned Web2Drive product will employ a mobile web
appliance concept integrated with a PDC or any other storage device enabling a
speedier and more efficient download of a personalized portal. Integration of
this software will enable a user to be mobile and capable of on and off line
surfing of the World Wide Web. The Company is devoting a substantial portion of
its research and development effort to the completion of this ongoing Internet
project.

         The Company believes that the combination of the Personal Data Carrier
and the personalized portal, which allows one to carry critical, proprietary or
sensitive data on one's person, combined with the ability to access applications
and non-critical information via the Internet, will create a compelling
universal mobility solution. The Company believes that its technology forms an
important component of a future potential computing paradigm based on three
components:

          1.   Ubiquitous set-top boxes and dumb terminals (at home, at work, in
               airports, on airplanes, in phone booths);

          2.   Application Service Providers; and

          3.   Personal Data Carriers.

         The Company's future products and services will depend on its ability
to raise adequate funding to finance its research and development and marketing
and the continued services of key personnel. It is expected that the Company's
initiative into Internet web services will require substantial funding for
development and marketing. The Company's future success also depends on its
ability to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate highly skilled
technical, managerial, sales and marketing and business development personnel.
The Company intends to

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

hire technical and marketing and development personnel during the next year.
Qualified personnel, however, are difficult to recruit and if we fail to attract
such personnel, the Company could be adversely affected.

COMPETITION

         The market for the Company's products is highly competitive and
characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions,
and evolving industry standards. The Company currently experiences competition
from various companies including Phoenix Technologies and Softex in "hot swap"
software. In future versions of Windows 2000, Microsoft is targeting some level
of "plug and play" technology which may address IDE "hot swap". There are also
smaller companies which are providing various IDE hardware and software
products.

         Most of the Company's competitors have significantly greater financial,
development, marketing and other resources than the Company. As a result, these
competitors may be in better position than the Company to quickly respond to
technological change and consumer demand. Accordingly, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in its ability to enhance current products
and develop and introduce future products that will achieve market acceptance

         The Company's future is largely dependent on development of new
products including, for example, DRS products, Web service, and LINUX version of
its plug and play software. These products and services are in varying stages of
development and there can be no assurance that development of these products and
services will be successful or timely completed.

PATENTS, PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY AND OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

         The Company relies primarily on a combination of copyright, trademark
and patent laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and contractual
provision to protect its proprietary technology. For example, the Company
distributes its software pursuant to license agreements which impose certain
restrictions on licensee's ability to utilize the software. In addition, the
Company seeks to avoid disclosure of its trade secrets, including requiring
those persons with access to the Company's proprietary information to execute
confidentiality agreements with the Company and restricting access to the
Company's source code. The Company seeks to protect its software, documentation,
and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws, which afford
only limited protection. The Company has two patent applications pending with
the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The first relates to the
Company's "hotswap" technology and the second to the Company's Web2Drive
Internet portal. There can be no assurance that any patent will ever be issued
or that if issued such patent will contain valid claims which are broad enough
to prevent competitors from designing around the patent or that if infringed the
Company will have the resources to enforce the patent.

         To date, the Company has not been notified that the Company's products
infringe the proprietary rights of third parties, but there can be no assurance
that third parties will not claim infringement by the Company with respect to
current or future products. The Company expects that software product developers
will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products
and competitors in the Company's industry segment grows and the functionality of
products in different industry segments overlaps. Any such claims, with or
without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause
product shipment delays or require the Company to enter into royalty or
licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not
be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all, which

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operation
results and financial condition.

PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS

         The Company's custom ASIC HotChip is sole sourced. Any termination or
significant disruption in the Company's relationship with this manufacturer or
any material adverse change to the financial condition of such manufacturer
could prevent the Company from filling customer orders in a timely manner and
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and
results of operation. Although management believes that its relationship with
this manufacturer is good, there can be no assurance that this relationship will
continue or that it will continue to be in a position to manufacture products
for the Company in a timely and cost efficient manner. Although the Company
attempts to reduce the adverse impact a problem with this supplier could cause
by maintaining a safety stock; there can be no assurance that the Company would
be able to replace the supplier before its safety stock ran out.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT SPENDING

         During the two most recent full-year fiscal periods ended March 31,
2000 and December 31 1998, the Company spent $537,722 and $888,885 respectively
on research and development activities. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations".

EMPLOYEES

         The Company currently has 14 employees, of whom 12 are full time and 2
are part time.

COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS

         Because of the nature of the Company's business, it does not believe
that the costs and effects of compliance with environmental laws, whether
federal, state or local, would be significant or even material.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         The Company does not own any real property. The Company leases
approximately 3,820 square feet of office space from a non-affiliate at 519
Montague Expressway , Milpitas, California under a three year office lease which
requires an annual lease obligation of $76,500. Management believes that its
current leased space is sufficient for its proposed operations for at least the
remaining term of the lease.

         The Company does not invest in, nor does the Company intend in the
future, to invest in real estate 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

         The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings
nor is any of its property subject to any such legal proceedings except as
follows. The Company's defunct Malaysian subsidiary was sued in 1998 in
Industrial Court in Malaysia by its former CEO for reinstatement which, if
granted, would most likely result in monetary damages against the

                                      -7-

<PAGE>

subsidiary. As the subsidiary has no assets or funds, this former employee has
attempted to add the Company's subsidiary Agate-California to the suit. However,
her application was denied, which denial she has appealed to the Malaysian
Supreme Court. This former employee is the owner of a corporation which
beneficially owns more than five percent (5%) of the Company's outstanding
common stock.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal year ended March 31, 2000, either through
the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

                                     PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

         Since June 30, 1999, the Company's common stock has been eligible for
trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "AGTE." No assurance can be
given that the present market for the Company's common stock will continue or
will be maintained.

         The following table sets forth the range of the high and low sales
prices for shares of the Company's common stock during each of the calendar
quarters identified below. Based on the limited public float and trading in the
Company's common stock, management of the Company believes that such data is
anecdotal and may bear no relation to the true value of the Company's common
stock or the range of prices which would prevail in a more fluid higher volume
market.

         Quarter Ending                      HIGH              LOW

         September 30, 1999                  $2.50            $1.25
         December 31, 1999                   $1.875           $0.812
         March 31, 2000                      $6.00            $0.812

         The last price of the Company's common stock as reported on the OTC
Electronic Bulletin Board on June 2, 2000 was $1.74. On such date the Company
had 423 holders of record of the Company's common stock .

         The Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock and the
Board of Directors presently intends to continue a policy of retaining earnings,
if any, for use in the Company's operations and to finance expansion of its
business. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future, of which there
can be no assurance, will be determined by the Board of Directors in light of
conditions then existing, including earnings, financial condition, capital
requirements and other factors. There are no restrictions that currently
materially limit the Company's ability to pay dividends or which the Company
reasonably believes are likely to limit materially the future payment of
dividends on common stock.

         The Company has changed its fiscal year end from December 31 to March
31.The following discussion compares the operating results, liquidity and
capital resources for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000 with the prior fiscal
year ended December 31,1998. As such, a discussion of the two fiscal years is
not directly comparable. However, management believes that a discussion of the
two fiscal years is informative and suggestive of trends in revenues, expenses
and the overall financial results of the Company. The Company has also included
a discussion of the three-month period ended March 31, 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FISCAL YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND DECEMBER 31, 1998.

         Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2000 rose to $1,400,153 compared
with net sales of $947,543 for the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of
47%. Net sales for both fiscal years were derived from three basic groups of
products: bundled products and software-

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

distribution and retail; Hotchip-OEM; and Licensing OEM. For the year ended
March 31, 2000, these groups of products accounted for 49%, 10% and 41%
respectively of all net sales. This compares to 35%, 21% and 44% respectively
for the year ended December 31, 1998. Gross profit rose to $877,605 for the year
ended March 31, 2000 compared to $642,694 for the year ended December 31, 1998,
an increase of 36%.

         Operating expenses decreased slightly in the year ended March 31, 2000
to $2,765,426 from $2,851,351 for the year ended December 31, 1998, a decrease
of 3%. The decrease in operating expenses can be attributed primarily to a
decline in research and development expenses which offset an increase in sales
and marketing and general and administrative expenses.

         Research and development expenses decreased to $537,722 for the year
ended March 31, 2000 from $888,885 in the year ended December 31, 1998, a
decrease of 40%. This decrease reflects a reduction in cash resources necessary
to maintain research and development at the prior year's level and a decreased
R&D headcount in California as the Company moved the bulk of its R&D and support
activities to Singapore where salaries were lower.

         Sales and marketing expenses increased to $1,177,883 for the year ended
March 31, 2000 compared to $1,009,318 for the year ended December 31, 1998, an
increase of 16%. This increase was mainly due to promotions and marketing
expense due to the launch of products into distribution and the addition of
sales representatives in Latin America and Europe. The Company anticipates that
it will increase its sales and marketing efforts in the ensuing year and will
incur additional expenses in support of such efforts if it is successful in
obtaining additional debt or equity financing.

         General and administrative expenses increased to $1,135,900 for the
year ended March 31, 2000 from $953,148 for the year ended December 31, 1998, an
increase of 17%. The increase in general and administrative expenses was largely
due to the merger transaction with ARCA and the higher professional fees (legal,
audit, insurance and others) as a result of the Company becoming a fully
reporting public company on the OTC-BB. Management ,however, expects general and
administrative expenses to stabilize at the current levels for the year ending
March 31, 2001 unless significant increases in revenues dictate increased levels
of personnel related expenses, including salaries, to support the Company's
sales activities.

         Interest income and other income decreased to $87,255 for the year
ended March 31, 2000 from $164,285 for the year ended December 31, 1998. This
reflects a depletion of the Company's cash and cash equivalent reserves as the
Company utilized its cash resources to support its operations.

         The Company narrowed its operating loss to $1,887,821 for the year
ended March 31, 2000 from $2,208,657 for the year ended December 31, 1998, a
decrease in operating losses of $320,836 or 15%. The Company's net loss also
narrowed. For the year ended March 31, 2000 the Company had a net loss of
$1,872,328 compared to a net loss of $2,102,491 for the year ended December 31,
1998, a decrease of $230,163 or 11%. Management expects that its operating
losses will continue to narrow in the year ending March 31, 2001 if its product
lines gain increased market acceptance and resulting sales revenues continue to
grow.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999.

         Net sales in the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $405,870 and
reflected the increase in net sales that became more evident in the year ended
March 31, 2000. Gross profit for

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

the three month period was $242,432. Operating expenses also continued to
increase in the three months ended March 31, 1999 over what the Company had
experienced in prior quarters. Management believes this was a reflection of
increased sales and marketing activity ($299,205) and increased general and
administrative expenses ($321,317) necessary to support expanded activity. These
respective quarterly levels of expenditures continued to increase as was evident
from the total operating expenses incurred in the year ended March 31, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2000
was $1,889,526. This compares to net cash used in operating activities of
$2,101,109 for the year ended December 31, 1998. Net cash provided by investing
activities was $15,439 for the year ended March 31, 2000. This compares to net
cash provided by investing activities of $100,416 for the year ended December
31, 1998. Working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) was
$349,124 at March 31, 2000 compared to working capital of $1,906,820 at December
31, 1998. The reduction in working capital of $1,557,696 or 82% reflects the
Company's utilization of its working capital to fund its continuing losses from
operations. At March 31, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents on hand
of $309,894 and other current assets of $650,561. Current liabilities at March
31, 2000 were $611,331.

         The Company's cash on hand as of March 31, 2000, would not be adequate
to fund the Company's operations for one quarter if the Company continued to use
cash in operating activities at the same rate as in fiscal 2000. The Company
has, however, reduced its cash used in operations through a variety of
cost-cutting measures. In addition, the Company hopes to have increased
revenues. In order to fund its operations, the Company has also extended its
$800,000 working capital credit line through April 1, 2001, which is expected to
provide additional borrowing capacity assuming the Company is able to fulfil the
loan covenants. The Company is in the process of seeking additional equity or
debt financing to increase its working capital and fund anticipated operations.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such
additional funding on terms it deems acceptable or at all. If it is unable to
raise additional financing, the Company may be required to reduce its operating
losses by cutting costs further through layoffs or to raise money by other means
such as technology licenses or consulting or else face other severe
consequences.

         The Company currently does not have any material commitments for
capital expenditures.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The Company did not experience any material disruptions in its
operations or activities as a result of the so-called "Y2K Problem". Nor did the
Company incur material expenses in correcting perceived or suspected Y2K
problems. In addition, the Company is not aware that any of its suppliers,
customers or on-line partners has experienced any material disruptions in their
operations or activities. The Company does not expect to encounter any such
problems in the foreseeable future, although it continues to monitor its
computer operations for signs or indications of such a problem.

ITEM 7. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The Company's consolidated financial statements (including the notes
thereto and the independent auditors' reports thereon) can be found on pages F-1
through F-21 immediately following the signature pages to this report.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

         Upon the recommendation of its board of directors, on April 5, 2000,
Registrant appointed Grant Thornton LLP as Registrant's independent accountants
to replace Ernst & Young, LLP who was dismissed. Ernst & Young LLP's report on
the financial statements for the past two years did not contain an adverse
opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During Registrant's two most
recent fiscal years, and any subsequent interim period preceding such dismissal,
there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst &
Young LLP, would have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report.

termination without cause results in six months severance pay, termination with
cause results in three months severance pay, and termination for malfeasance
results in no severance pay. Messrs. Khoo and Ms. Ooi also receive a housing

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         The promoters of the Company were Pacific Rim Trading Co., Ltd.,
Francis Khoo, Shirley Ooi, and Vincent Ooi. Pacific Rim Trading Co., Ltd.
purchased 6,750,000 Company shares in exchange for $570,000 cash in the first
half of 1996. Vincent Ooi purchased 637,500 Company shares in exchange for
certain intellectual property relating to removable hard drives during the first
half of 1996.

ITEM 13. RISKS AND OTHER FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL

         The Company anticipates that its current cash balance will not be
sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements through March of 2001. If
the Company were to use cash in operations during fiscal 2001 at the same rate
as in fiscal 2000, which it does not expect to do, the Company would run out of
cash prior to September 30, 2000. The Company is currently attempting to raise
debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to raise any financing, much less adequate financing to fund its ongoing
operations, on terms that are acceptable to the Company. The Company's
operations would be severely constrained if

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

it is unable to raise financing during the calendar year 2000. If the Company is
unable to raise financing during 2000 or to reduce its cash requirements through
cuts in expenses and/or increases in revenues, then the Company could face other
severe consequences.

RECENT AND EXPECTED LOSSES

         From inception, the Company has never been profitable. There can be no
assurance that it ever will generate positive revenues from its operating
activities, or that it will achieve and sustain a profit during any future
period. Failure to achieve significant revenues or profitability would
materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and
results of operations.

MARKET ACCEPTANCE OF BUNDLED PRODUCTS

         During the current quarter, ei Corporation increased its distribution
channels for bundled products. The Company's bundled products are relatively new
and unproven and need substantial marketing funds to create name brand
awareness. There can be no assurance that there is a viable market for these
products. The Company's marketing arm, ei Corporation, is also new. Even if
there is a viable market for the Company's bundled products, there can be no
assurance that ei Corporation can successfully penetrate such market. In this
regard, unless the Company raises additional financing as described above,
efforts of ei Corporation will be constrained by a lack of resources to
adequately promote the bundled products.

CONCENTRATION OF CONTROL

         The Company is controlled in the majority by Francis Khoo and Vincent
and Shirley Ooi through their individual ownership and ownership through Pacific
Rim. As a result, these shareholders may be able to exercise significant
influence over all matters involving shareholder approval, including the
election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

         The Company's success depends to a significant extent upon a number of
key management employees, in particular, upon Francis Khoo and Vincent and
Shirley Ooi. Loss of the services of any one of them would be materially
detrimental. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
retaining these individuals and other key technical and management personnel.

PERSONNEL RECRUITMENT

         The Company recognizes the difficulty in recruiting and retaining
talent but intends to recruit a chief operating officer who will be critical to
the success of the Company. There can be no assurance that such person will be
located. Also, the Company needs to retain current and recruit additional
engineering talent which is difficult in the intensely competitive job market of
Silicon Valley. This is one reason the Company has relocated a large portion of
its engineering operations to Singapore. If the Company is unable to obtain and
retain highly skilled individuals to fulfill technical and managerial functions,
the Company's business and financial condition may be materially affected.

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

SUPPLY RELATIONSHIPS WITH THIRD PARTIES

         The Company will be dependent upon the hardware products of third
parties for its products that are "bundled" with other products for sale or that
are resold by ei Corporation. There is no assurance that the relationship
between the Company and the third parties will continue to be beneficial to the
Company. There can be no assurance that the third parties will continue to
produce products in the future that retain their current level of market
acceptance, that the products will continue to be available in adequate
quantities at the times required by the Company, or that the third party
products will not contain defects or errors. The Company may experience lost
revenues due to the third party's delay in correcting defects in their products,
delay in getting an adequate supply of their products to the Company, or from
any resulting loss of market share.

UNEXPLORED MARKETS

         The Company is actively looking for new OEMs partnership for its
desktop solutions either in the form of joint marketing and distribution or
licensing of its software and ASIC chip while building its own markets and
distribution channels for its newly released products. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in this regard.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND MARKET COMPETITION

         Competition in the data storage industry continues to be intense. The
industry is characterized by changing technologies and customer demands for new
products. Third parties could develop products and technologies which cause
those of the Company to become obsolete. Most of the Company's competitors have
significantly greater financial, development, marketing and other resources than
the Company. In light of the intense competition in the industry, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be successful in its ability to enhance
current products and develop and introduce future products that will achieve
market acceptance.

DEPENDENCE ON NEW PRODUCTS UNDER DEVELOPMENT

         The Company's future is largely dependent on development of new
products including, for example, Web service and Web2D, and LINUX version of its
plug and play software. These products and services are in varying stages of
development and there can be no assurance that development of these products and
services will be successfully or timely completed.

MINIMAL MARKET IN AGATE STOCK

         Prior to its take-over by Agate-California shareholders on June 29,
1999, ARCA stock was very thinly traded. The three market makers sold less than
10,000 shares during the first five months of 1999. During the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, the market remained thin as only 17,650 Company shares were
traded while during the quarter ended December 31, 1999, 115,200 shares traded,
and during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, 1,041,600 shares traded, with
526,500 shares trading during the one-week period ending March 24, 2000. There
can be no assurance that any material trading market will develop for the
Company's stock. Such lack of active trading may cause a hesitance to purchase
Company shares on the part of potential shareholders due to the perceived
illiquidity of the shares, thereby perpetuating the lack of a market in the
stock and a corresponding artificial depression in value of Company stock.

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

         The Company has copyrighted its software executable code. However, to
protect the remainder of its intellectual property, the Company currently relies
primarily on trade secret law and the Company's perpetual innovation of its
products. The nature of the Company's product line is such that the products are
susceptible to reverse engineering by competitors. The Company has applied for a
patent to protect some of the technology underlying its planned interactive Web
service; however, there can be no assurance that such patent will be granted,
and if it should be granted, that it will be sufficient to be effective against
competitors. In addition, there can be no assurance that a third party has not
filed or will not file applications for patents or obtain additional proprietary
rights that will prevent, limit, or interfere with the Company's ability to
make, use, or sell its products. In the event the Company found it necessary to
acquire a license to a product from a third party, there can be no assurance
that such license would be available, or if available, that it would be
available on terms acceptable to the Company, or that the Company could
successfully redesign its products to avoid infringement of the third party's
patent.

FOREIGN CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS

         As the Company's R&D operations move overseas and its foreign revenues
increase, the Company becomes more vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations. The
Company may in the future hedge against this risk.

SUPPLY OF PUBLIC STOCK

         Currently only 1,000,000 shares are available for trading in the public
market under SEC rules. As of mid-June 2000, an additional 450,000 shares become
available and on June 28, 2000, twelve months after the closing date of the
Company's transaction with ARCA Corp., another 13,500,000 shares become
available for trading, all subject to Rule 144, including in the instance of
shares held by affiliates, its volume limitations. The large availability of
shares for public trading could affect the market adversely and drive the market
price down.

SUBORDINATION

         The Company's common stock is subordinate to its 1,850,000 shares of
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company's common stock
will be subordinate to any future preferred stock that the Company creates and
issues. No vote of the Company's common shareholders is required to issue
preferred stock.

MANUFACTURING

         The Company's custom ASIC HotChip is sole sourced. The Company attempts
to reduce the adverse impact a problem with the supplier could cause by
maintaining a safety stock; however, there can be no assurance that the Company
would be able to replace the supplier before its safety stock ran out.

GENERAL

         The Company's business is subject to general economic conditions,
interest rate changes and uninsurable risks.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


Board of Directors
Agate Technologies, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Agate
Technologies, Inc. as of March 31, 2000, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year 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 audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Agate
Technologies, Inc. as of March 31, 2000, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. As more fully discussed in Note B to the
financial statements, the Company has sustained recurring losses and has used
cash in operating activities, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are
also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



Board of Directors and Shareholders
Agate Technologies, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Agate
Technologies, Inc. of which 64% of the voting stock is owned by Pacific Rim
Trading Limited, as of March 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 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 Agate
Technologies, Inc. at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    For the year ended March 31, 2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999
                      and the year ended December 31, 1998


NOTE A - BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    Agate Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on January 17,
    1996. Pacific Rim Trading Limited held approximately 52% and 64% of the
    Company's common stock as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. If the
    Series A convertible preferred stock is converted to common stock, Pacific
    Rim Trading Limited would hold less than 50% of the Company's common stock.

    On June 29, 1999, all former shareholders of Agate Technologies, Inc.
    ("Agate-California"), a California corporation were issued series of stock
    in ARCA Corp. ("ARCA"), a non-operating public shell with no known assets or
    liabilities, in exchange for their Agate-California shares. Each common
    shareholder received 1.5 ARCA common shares for each Agate-California share
    exchanged. Each Series A preferred shareholder received an equal number of
    ARCA Series A preferred shares, which had substantially identical rights,
    preferences, privileges, and restrictions, except each share is convertible
    into 1.5 ARCA common shares. As a result, Agate-California became a wholly
    owned subsidiary of ARCA. The transaction between ARCA and Agate-California
    is accounted for as a recapitalization of Agate-California. All references
    to the number of shares and amounts per share herein have been adjusted to
    reflect the effect of this 1.5 adjustment for all periods presented.

    On June 30, 1999, ARCA was merged into its other wholly-owned subsidiary,
    Agate Technologies, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, ("Agate-Delaware") in
    order to re-incorporate ARCA in Delaware. Agate-Delaware has Series A
    Preferred Stock that has identical rights, preferences, privileges and
    restrictions, to the ARCA Series A Preferred Stock. Each ARCA shareholder
    received one share of Agate-Delaware stock in exchange for each ARCA share
    of the same class. Agate-California continued as a wholly owned subsidiary
    of Agate-Delaware.



NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND LIQUIDITY

    REALIZATION OF ASSETS

    The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
    generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of
    the company as a going concern. However, the company has sustained
    substantial losses from operations in recent years and has an accumulated
    deficit of $8,320,933 at March 31, 2000. In addition, the company has used,
    rather than provided, cash in its operations.

    In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability
    of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying
    balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the company, which
    in turn is dependent upon the company's ability to meets its financing
    requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain present financing, and to
    succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include
    any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of the
    recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that
    might be necessary should the company be unable to continue in existence.
    Management has reduced operating expenses and had its line of credit
    extended to April 1, 2001. Additionally, management is currently looking for
    additional financing which it anticipates will be completed in fiscal 2001.
    Management believes the Company will have sufficient working capital to
    provide it with the ability to continue in existence through its next fiscal
    year.

    For the year ended March 31, 2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999
                      and the year ended December 31, 1998


NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND LIQUIDITY (CONTINUED)

    BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

    The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its
    wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and
    transactions have been eliminated.

    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 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 from those estimates.

    CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

    The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of less than
    three months as of the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    For financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, deposits,
    accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term
    debt included in the Company's financial statements, the carrying amounts
    approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity and current market
    interest rates of the long-term debt.

    Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations
    of credit risk principally are comprised of cash and trade accounts
    receivable. The Company maintains its cash balances at several financial
    institutions and has not experienced any losses relating to any of its bank
    deposits.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND LIQUIDITY (CONTINUED)

    CERTAIN RISKS AND CONCENTRATIONS

    Ongoing customer credit evaluations are performed by the Company, and
    collateral is not required. The Company maintains allowances for potential
    returns and credit losses.

    The Company's products include components subject to rapid technological
    change. Significant technological change could adversely affect the
    Company's operating results and subject the Company to product returns and
    inventory losses. While the Company has ongoing programs to minimize the
    adverse effect of such changes and considers technological change in
    estimating its allowances, such estimates could change in the future. In
    addition, two of the Company's products are currently manufactured by a
    single supplier, and certain key components are currently available from
    only single sources.

    Major customers of the Company represented the following percentage of
product revenues:

    INVENTORIES

    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, calculated on a first-in,
    first-out basis, or market.

    PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

    Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
    amortization. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over
    the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally three years.
    Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided on a straight-line basis
    over the life of the related asset or the lease term, if shorter.

    ADVERTISING

    The Company's policy is to expense advertising and promotion costs as
    incurred. The Company's advertising and promotion expenses were not
    significant for any period presented.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND LIQUIDITY (CONTINUED)

    SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COST

    Costs related to the conceptual formulation and design of software products
    are expensed as research and development. Generally, technological
    feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs
    incurred subsequent to technological feasibility have not been significant
    and all such costs have been expensed.

    REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Revenue is recognized upon shipment provided no significant vendor
    obligations remain, and collection of the resulting receivable is deemed
    probable by management. Provisions for estimated warranty costs,
    insignificant vendor obligations, and anticipated retroactive price
    adjustments are recorded at the time products are shipped.

    FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE GAINS AND LOSSES

    The reporting currency for the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional
    currencies of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are the Malaysian ringitt
    and the Singapore dollar. Subsidiaries' assets and liabilities are
    translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance
    sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange
    prevailing during the period. The resulting cumulative translation
    adjustments are disclosed as a component of accumulate other comprehensive
    loss in shareholder's equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses
    are recorded in the statement of operations as a component of general and
    administrative expense and have been immaterial for periods presented.

    NET LOSS PER SHARE

    Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed using the
    weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
    period. Weighted average shares have been adjusted for all periods presented
    for the June 1999 recapitalization as discussed in Note A.

    The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding
    stock options from the calculation of diluted loss per share because all
    such securities are antidilutive for all periods presented.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS

    Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current
    year presentation.

NOTE G - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

    PREFERRED STOCK

    Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, preferred stock is issuable
    in series, and the Company's board of directors is authorized to determine
    the rights, preferences, and terms of each series.

    DIVIDENDS

    The holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends,
    out of any assets legally available, prior and in preference to any
    declaration or payment of any dividend on the common stock of the Company,
    at the rate of $0.175 per share, per year, respectively, or if greater (as
    determined on a per-year basis and on an as-converted basis for the
    preferred stock) an amount equal to that paid on the common stock of the
    Company. Such dividends are payable when, as and if declared by the board of
    directors and are not cumulative. As of March 31, 2000, no dividends have
    been declared.

    LIQUIDATION

    In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company,
    either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series A preferred stock are
    entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any
    assets of the Company to the holders of common stock by reason of their
    ownership, an amount equal to the sum of $3.50 for each outstanding share of
    Series A preferred stock (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations,
    or splits) plus any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares. Any
    remaining assets will be distributed ratably to the holders of common stock
    based on the number of shares held by each shareholder.

    VOTING

    The holder of each share of Series A preferred stock has no voting rights.

    For the year ended March 31, 2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999
                      and the year ended December 31, 1998


NOTE G - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)

    CONVERSION

    Each share of Series A preferred stock, at the option of the holder, is
    convertible into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common
    stock, which results from dividing the conversion price per share in effect
    for the preferred stock at the time of conversion into the per share
    conversion value of such shares. The initial conversion price per share is
    $3.50. The initial conversion price of Series A preferred stock is subject
    to adjustment from time to time. The number of shares into which a share of
    preferred stock is convertible is referred to as the conversion rate.

    Conversion is automatic at its then effective conversion rate immediately
    upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant
    to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
    amended, converting the offer and sale of common stock in which the
    aggregate proceeds raised equal, or exceed, $5,000,000 or when fewer than
    150,000 shares of Series A preferred stock are outstanding. The board of
    directors has reserved 2,075,000 shares of common stock for future issuance
    to effect the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock.

    REDEMPTION

    The Company may, at the option of the board of directors, redeem in whole or
    in part, the Series A preferred stock by paying cash equal to the sum of
    $3.50 for each outstanding share of Series A preferred stock plus any
    declared but unpaid dividends.

    COMMON STOCK

    Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. The holders of common
    stock are also entitled receive dividends whenever funds are legally
    available and when declared by the board of directors, subject to the prior
    rights of holders of all classes of stock outstanding.

    STOCK OPTION PLAN

    The Company had two incentive stock option plans under which shares of
    common stock are reserved for issuance to employees and consultants. In
    connection with the reorganization, the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the 1997
    Stock Option Plan were canceled and the shares were transferred and adopted
    under the 1999 Dual Stock Option Plan, under which shares of common stock
    are reserved for issuance to employees and consultants. Under this plan,
    which was approved by the shareholders in June 1999, the Company may grant
    up to 4,500,000 incentive stock options or nonstatutory options.

    The 1999 Plan provide that (i) the exercise price of an incentive stock
    option or stock purchase right will be no less than the fair market value of
    the Company's common stock (as determined by the board of directors) on the
    date of grant; (ii) the exercise price of a nonstatutory stock option will
    be no less than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date
    of grant: and (iii) the exercise price of an incentive stock option to a
    person who possesses more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all
    classes of stock will be no less than 110% of the fair market value of the
    common stock on the date of grant. Options generally vest over a four-year
    period (25% vesting after one year and the remainder vesting ratably monthly
    over the remaining three years) and expire ten years after the date of
    grant. The terms of the 1999 Plan are the same as the former plans.

    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

    The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
    25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25"), and related
    interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as
    discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
    Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS 123"), requires use of option valuation
    models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options.
    Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock
    options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of
    grant, no compensation is recognized.

    Pro forma information regarding net loss and net loss per share is required
    by FAS 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if the
    Company had accounted for its employee stock options granted under the fair
    value method of FAS 123. The fair value for options was estimated at the
    date of grant using the Black Scholes method with the following
    weighted-average assumptions for 2000, 1999, and 1998: expected dividend
    yield of 0%, expected stock price volatility of 157%, 1% and 1%, a risk-free
    interest rate of 5.6 - 5.7%, and the expected life of options of ten years.
    For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
    options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The pro
    forma effect of applying the FAS 123 was not material to the Company's
    reported net loss and no effect on net loss per share in any period
    presented but could be material in future years.

    Option valuation models were developed for use in estimating the fair value
    of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
    transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of
    highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price
    volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have
    characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and
    because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect
    the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not
    necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its
    employee stock options.

NOTE I - INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

    Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
    between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
    reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant
    components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities for federal
    and state income taxes are as follows:

</TABLE>

    Realization of deferred tax asset is dependent upon future earnings, the
    timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, a valuation
    allowance, in the amount equal to the net deferred tax assets, has been
    established to reflect these uncertainties. The valuation allowance
    increased by $856,000, $230,000, and $840,000 during the year ended March
    31, 2000, the period ended March 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31,
    1998, respectively.

    As of March 31, 2000, the Company had federal and state net operating loss
    carryforwards each of $7,400,000 and $6,300,000, respectively. The Company
    also had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards
    of approximately $145,000 and $9,000, respectively. The net operating loss
    and tax credit carryforwards will expire at various date beginning in 2005,
    if not utilized.

    The Tax Reform Act of 1986, as amended, and the California Conformity Act of
    1987 imposes substantial restrictions on the utilization of the net
    operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in the event of an "ownership
    change" as defined by the Internal Revenue Service Code. The Company's
    ability to offset taxable income with loss carryforwards could be limited.
