                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements, which are for interim periods,
do not include all disclosures provided in the annual financial statements.
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in Form 10-KSB for the
year ended December 31, 1999 of Imatec, Ltd. (Company), as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 1999 balance sheet was
derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.

2. LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share was computed based upon the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Dilutive loss per common
share has not been presented because it was anti-dilutive.

ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION

The Company was organized on November 17, 1998. The Company was involved in
significant patent litigation against Apple Computer Corp. ("Apple"), as
discussed in Item 1 of Part II herein. The Company believes, based upon its
internal budgets, that its available cash resources will be sufficient for the
Company to: (i) engage in licensing the Company's technology and Imatec 20/20
System developed for the medical diagnostic imaging field to manufacturers of
medical diagnostic imaging products such as scanners, cameras and image
reproduction systems, (ii) engage in marketing activities to facilitate the
licensing of the Company's technology and its Imatec 20/20 Systems, and (iii)
conduct its operations at least through the year ending March 31, 2001. Thus,
although there can be no guarantee that the Company will not raise additional
funds in the next twelve months, the Company currently has no plans to do so.
The Company has no plans to pursue its business plan until the resolution of its
patent litigation. The Company does not intend to utilize any cash resources
towards research and development or the purchase and/or sale of any significant
equipment. In addition, the Company does not anticipate any significant change
in its number of employees.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000
increased by $33,010 from $236,641 in 1999 to $269,651 in 2000. This increase
results from an increase in litigation expenses net of decreases in other
expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, interest income decreased from
$32,463 for 1999 to $29,495 for 2000.

                                        7

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company is in the development stage and, primarily as a consequence of
expenses incurred in connection with research and development activities, at
March 31, 2000, the Company had an accumulated stockholders' deficit of
$6,793,878. The Company has continued to incur losses since March 31, 2000.

The Company believes that the remaining balance from their initial public
offering will be sufficient for the Company to sustain its business plan through
at least March 31, 2001, although there can be no assurance that such balance
will be sufficient to finance the Company's operations for such period.


FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Statements contained in this report regarding the Company's future operations,
strategy, future performance and results and the anticipated liquidity are
forward looking and therefore are subject to certain risks and uncertainties,
including those discussed herein. In addition, any forward-looking information
regarding the operations of the Company will be affected by the outcome of the
Apple motion to recover attorneys fees or the licensing of the Company's
technology. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its
plan of operation.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In February 1998, the Company and an officer filed a patent infringement
complaint for $1.1 billion against Apple Computer Corp. (Apple) in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging
infringement on certain of the Company's patents. In 1999, Apple filed motions
to dismiss and for summary judgement. In January 2000, the Court granted Apple's
motions, held that the inventions which are the subject of the patents had been
previously assigned and held a certain system does not infringe.

The Company and the officer have appealed the decision to the United States
Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and believe the court erred in
determining the previous assignment and incorrectly construed the claim of the
patents.

In addition, Apple filed a motion to recover attorney's fees of approximately
$1,700,000.

On May 13, 2000, the motion for attorney's fees was overturned.

                         INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

         We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Imatec, Ltd. as of
March 31, 2000, and the accompanying statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for the three months then ended. These interim financial
statements are the responsibility of the company's management.

         We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures
applied to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the interim
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.

         Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements in order
for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
