PART I

Item 1. Business.

Telecommunication Products, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Colorado on June 8, 1983, and successfully completed an initial public offering of its common stock on March 20, 1984. It is engaged in the design,manufacture, and marketing of specialized communication equipment. Most recently, the Company has employed two persons, with an additional two people available as contract labor as needed. As the Company has had no sales of its products in the past fiveyears, it has recently concentrated operations on finding a merger candidate with products or services with the potential of generating revenue for continuing operations; a merger agreement has been signed by the directors, subject to shareholderapproval, on June 25, 2001, as more fully described in the 8-K filed on June 27, 2001.

Products

Model 9100 Infrared Laser Communication Link. The Model 9100 has been designed to permit the transmission of up to 2.048 million bits per second of asynchronous data for up to 6km. The Model 9100-2B is an upgrade of theModel 9100-2 system. The Model 9100-2B has a peak optical power output of 2.4 watts. The Model 9100-2 previously manufactured and sold by TELPRO had a peak power input to the transmitter laser diode of 1.0 watt. The previously-offered Model 9100-2 systemwas offered for applications of up to 2.5 miles. The Model 9100-2B infrared laser communication link has an upgrade system gain of 7 db which is anticipated to increase the "line of sight" path distance capabilities to approximately 5 miles. In order toimprove the reliability of the Model 9100-2B, this system was designed to operate from an uninterruptable 48vdc power source or an uninterruptable 115/230vac - 50/60hz primary power source. This system was marketed as an alternative to microwave or fiberoptics communication systems in specific applications. There is no requirement to obtain property easements for burial of fiber or other type cable.

The upgraded Model 9100-2B infrared laser system capable of 2.048 mbps was designed to compete with 18 ghz microwave operating with a T1 (1.544 mbps) data transmission capability. The specific market target was for microcellinterconnection of cellular or PCS networks. It was anticipated the availability of FCC licensing for 18 and 23 ghz microwave frequencies space will become more difficult due to the frequency congestion in metropolitan areas. There is no requirement forFCC licensing for infrared laser communication links. 

The Model 9100 was tested by the Company in a variety of conditions (-40 to +140 degrees F, and winds up to 86 mph), with a bit error rate in unfaded weather conditions of approximately 10-11, which translates to error-freetransmission during 99.9985% of running time, compared with microwave transmission which averages only 85% of running time error-free. The results of these propagation studies were published in electronic trade journals and presented at trade shows.Although there have been no sales of this product in over five years, former customers for this product ranged from government and governmental agencies to private industry and foreign corporations, with systems sold to customers in Mexico, Canada,Indonesia, Malaysia, and Korea, in addition to the U.S. The Model 9100 was designed to be versatile, and can be adapted for specialized applications, such as the transmission of video signals. This product can also interface with both digital fiber opticand digital microwave systems.

There have been no sales of the Model 9100 since fiscal 1995.

The company has been working on an upgrade of a TELPRO atmospheric laser communication link to directly interface with fiber optic communication systems operating at OC-3 (155 mbps) protocol, which would be compatible with largetelecommunication company fiber optic systems. 

Model 1001 Series Converter. This product had an established sales record for the Company, but had a small specialized travel agency market, and in fact contributed nothing to revenues in the last three fiscal years. As aresult, this product has not been offered by TELPRO for a number of years. 

Other Products and Services. In the event a prospective customer has particular needs for telecommunications or similarly related technology equipment, the Company from time to time will specially design and manufacture amade-to-order device. There have been no sales of products or services in this category since fiscal 1995.**Sales, Markets, and Competition**
The Company previously sold its products through Mr. Ranniger and outside sales representatives. As there have been no sales of the Company's products in the past five years, these arrangements are all inactive and deemedconcluded. The Company operates solely out of its Golden, Colorado address, and all information regarding assets and operating profit and loss is addressed in the accompanying financial statements. As of March 31, 2001 and the date of this report, theCompany has no material backlog of orders. 

The Company has had no sales revenues for the past five fiscal years. Therefore, it has had no sales to unaffiliated customers during the past three fiscal years, nor has it had sales in excess of 10% to any individual customers overthe past three-year period. The Company's revenues depend on its ability to establish or expand its client base, or to accomplish a merger with a potentially profitable candidate.

The Company sought to compete generally with a number of other manufacturers of telecommunications equipment. System design and engineering, and component technical features were the principal methods of competition. As the Company hashad no sales of its products in the past five years, it has recently concentrated operations on finding a merger candidate with products or services which might generate revenue.
**Miscellaneous**
As is customary in the telecommunications industry, the Company produces its products from readily available components purchased from a variety of manufacturers. Printed circuit boards and housings were contracted for manufactureaccording to Company specifications from among many available suppliers. The business of the Company is not seasonal. The Company maintains no special arrangements relating to working capital items, and as far as it is aware this is standard in theindustry. Its inventory as of March 31, 2001 was $55,176; however, due to damage and attrition associated with the move from the Company's former laboratory and offices, as well as the age and obsolescence of certain parts and components, it is theopinion of management that the value of the raw materials is significantly less than listed. An appraiser is being sought to give a more realistic valuation of the inventory; that valuation should be reflected in the Company's next 10Q, and should besignificantly less than presently booked. The Company is not subject to environmental protection regulations during the foreseeable future. The Company has spent nothing on research and development in the last three fiscal years. Patents have not appearedto be important to the industry, and as of December 1990 the Company's patent expired. None of the Company's present business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the government. 
**Item 2. Properties.

The building in which the Company was renting its office space has been sold, and the Company presently has no physical location for its offices. The Company currently has a mailing address of Post Office Box 17013, Golden,Colorado, 80302.
**Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

None.

**PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.

The Company's common stock is traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board market. The Company has not had any revenues which could be used to pay for official quarterly bid/ask figures from the National Quotation Bureau sincefiscal year ended 3/31/96; however, the high and low bid/ask quotations over the past three fiscal years have ranged from 0/not trading to $0.17 (on 6/27/2000). This range reflects inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission, andmay not necessarily represent actual transactions.

As of March 31, 2001, there were approximately 378 record holders of the Company's Common Stock.

The Company has not paid dividends on its Common Stock and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company anticipates that all earnings will be retained for development of the Company's business.

The underwriter for the initial public offering, Norbay Securities, Inc., of Bayside, New York, is no longer in business. The Company is unaware as to whether a market is still being made in the Company's stock by any brokerage firms.

**Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management provides the following forward-looking information to the best of its information and belief as of the time of signing, with no assurance as to eventual outcome.

Financial Condition and Changes in Financial Condition

The Company had significant other income in the previous fiscal year, although none of this income was from sales revenues. This income included payment of $75,000 made pursuant to a letter of intent agreement entered into with amerger candidate, which required shareholder approval by proxy vote prior to consummation of the transaction, and which transaction also provided for a reverse split of present shareholders' stock and divestiture of present operations, *inter alia*. The merger candidate raised an entity status issue, disclosed prior to signing of the letter of intent, which the Company has hired outside counsel to resolve. That letter of intent has been fully released, and the Company retained the$75,000 pursuant to agreement of the parties.

As the Company has had no sales of its products in the past five years, it has recently concentrated operations on finding a merger candidate with products or services which might generate revenue for continuing operations; a mergeragreement has been signed by the directors, subject to shareholder approval, on June 25, 2001, as more fully described in the 8-K filed on June 27, 2001.

There was a net loss this year, and overall there is a significant accumulated deficit which has eroded stockholders' equity. As no sales are presently pending, such attrition was projected to continue through fiscal 2002. The Companyhad talks with EchoStar during the third quarter of the past fiscal year about a potential sale to that entity of one Model 9100 system; however, EchoStar's needs changed so that a sale is not now presently contemplated. In light of the fact that theCompany has not has sales revenues for the past five years, management believes that the Company's best prospects are in pursuing a merger with another company.

Since its liquidity was enhanced in fiscal 1984 by a limited offering of the Company's securities in August, 1983 for net proceeds of $218,055, and an initial public offering of its common stock for net proceeds of $493,394 on March20, 1984, the Company's liquidity has declined due to the initial expenditures required for research and development, and the time involved in securing a market for the Company's products. There are no present or planned commitments for material capitalexpenditures, and the Company presently has no material unused sources of liquid assets. 

Due to the losses sustained by the Company during its development stage and over the intervening years, the Company's ability to remain a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations,to obtain additional financing as may be required, and to continue to increase its product sales, or alternatively to pursue a merger arrangement with an appropriate candidate. Even though the Company has previously been unable to obtain outsideconventional financing, it has been able to continue as a going concern due to loans it has received from officers, in addition to those officers deferring their respective salaries since January 1987.

Results of Operations

The Company had no sales revenues again this year. As the Company has had no sales of its products in the past five years, it has recently concentrated operations on finding a merger candidate with products or services which mightgenerate revenue for continuing operations; a merger agreement has been signed by the directors, subject to shareholder approval, on June 25, 2001, as more fully described in the 8-K filed on June 27, 2001.

The Company was previously working to upgrade its Model 9100 system with a new diode which would increase the transmission power of the system from 1 watt power input to 1.2 and 2.4 optical power output, thereby increasing thetransmission range to over two miles in normal atmospheric conditions. However, the new technology has made the present work in process inventory obsolete, and no monies have been available to start constructing the upgraded systems at this point.

In addition, the Company was working to upgrade the data rate transmission capabilities of the Model 9100. Presently, the Model 9100-2 is capable of transmitting communication formats of DS-0 (64 kbps), DS-1 (1.544 mbps), and theEuropean standard CEPT HDB-3 (2.048 mbps). Upgrades would allow transmission of additional data rates of OC-1 (51.84 mbps) and OC-2 (155.520 mbps). The present plans to accomplish these upgrades would utilize the same castings, optics, mounts, and mostother hardware, therefore reducing the cost of the new design while greatly enhancing system features. Again, no work in process has been started to accommodate these upgrades; however, raw materials are listed in inventory which could be used for thesenew systems.

Other than the above, the Company does not expect any material changes in the mix and relative cost of resources. Raw materials were previously augmented in the anticipation of potential future demand in Asia. As of year end, therewere no finished goods in inventory. Inflation has had no material effect on the Company's operations over the last three fiscal years.

The Company's only full time employees, Don and Clara Ranniger, had elected to defer their salaries since January of 1987 through the date of this 10-K in order to help the Company's cash flow; a resolution of that wage claim ispresently addressed in the proposed merger agreement.

Besides pursuing a merger with a potentially profitable candidate, fiscal 2002 operations will continue to concentrate efforts on increasing sales and production of the Model 9100. However, due to varying economic conditions in thedomestic and world-wide markets for this product, and based on the fact that the Company has had no sales revenues in the past five years, it is unlikely that the Company will any significant sales in 2001, thereby increasing the loss and financial riskfactors.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization - Telecommunication Products, Inc. (Company) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on June 8, 1983, to design, manufacture and market specialized communication equipment.

Going-Concern Basis - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shownin the financial statements, during the year ended March 31, 2001, the Company incurred a net loss of $22,925 and, as of that date, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,365,721 and a net stockholders' deficiency of $631,953. These factors, amongothers, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as agoing concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain successful operations. Management is of the opinion thatenhanced marketing efforts will enable the Company to increase revenues sufficiently to sustain operations.

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

Property and Equipment and Depreciation - Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. All property and equipment has been fully depreciated and an adjustment has been maderemoving the cost of property and equipment and the related accumulated depreciation; the net effect on operations is zero (0).

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when products are delivered and accepted by customers.

Other Income - Other income includes payment made pursuant to a letter of intent which has since been released (and, pursuant to the release, the monies have remained with the Company), as well as accrued expenses and accountspayable which were not incurred or were forgiven by the creditor.

F-8

Warranty Reserve - The Company grants a one-year warranty on parts and labor for all of its products. The Company has historically experienced minimal warranty claims.

Net Loss Per Common Share - Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted shares outstanding include 9,800,000 shares issued tocertain persons at a price substantially less than the public offering price.

2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

One of the Company's directors provides accounting services to the Company. Expenses for such services were $960, $0, and $625 for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

Certain officers/stockholders of the Company elected to defer their salaries beginning the first quarter of calendar year 1987 in order to help the Company's cash flow. Unpaid compensation expenses of $49,200 annually were incurred ineach of the subsequent years and as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, unpaid compensation to officers/stockholders totaled $701,100 and $651,900, respectively.

                                                                      --------                     --------

Total                                                            $ 55,176                   $ 92,109

                                                                ========               ========

Due to damage and attrition associated with the move from the Company's former laboratory and offices, as well as the age and obsolescence of certain parts and components, it is the opinion of management that the value of the rawmaterials is significantly less than listed; however, until an appraisal or audit can be accomplished, initial costs of $55,176 are reflected on the books of the Company.
