NOTE 1     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

           The financial statements,  in the opinion of management,  include all
           adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation.

           The results of operations for each interim period are not necessarily
           indicative  of  results  to be  expected  for  the  year  due  to the
           unpredictability of market factors, product development,  competition
           and sales in general.

NOTE 3     CANCELLATION OF STOCK OPTIONS

           In April,  1996,  various officers,  directors or shareholders of the
           Company  collectively  exercised  all of their  options and  acquired
           2,843,166  shares of the Company's  common stock at an exercise price
           of $0.25 per share.  Shares of stock owned by these  individuals were
           tendered to the Company as payment for the options exercised and were
           subsequently canceled by the Company.

NOTE 4     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

           As previously reported, the Company elected a new President and Chief
           Executive Officer,  Herbert L. Hugill. Mr. Katevatis remains Chairman
           and Treasurer of the Company.  Accordingly,  the employment agreement
           with Mr. Katevatis was amended  effective March 1, 1996 providing for
           an annual  salary of $100,000 per year for the next three  years.  In
           connection with this amendment, the Company issued 552,664 restricted
           shares of the Company's common stock in consideration for a reduction
           in the term of his employment agreement and a reduction in his annual
           salary.  Accordingly,  the Company recognized  $453,184 as additional
           compensation to Mr. Katevatis during the quarter ended May 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION

The  Company's  mission is to discover,  develop and market novel and  effective
photonic   technologies  for  the  early  detection  of  cancer.  The  focus  of
Mediscience's  devices is aimed toward less invasive,  faster, more accurate and
more cost effective cancer diagnosis.

Mediscience's   primary   area   of   concentration   is  on   development   and
commercialization  of its patented Tissue Fluorescence  Spectroscopy  technology
which uses light for non-invasive and minimally  invasive detection of cancer in
humans,  in  vivo  (in  the  body).  Its  secondary  focus  is on  research  and
development of its Optical  Imaging  technology  which uses laser light to image
dense tissue without exposing the body to harmful ionizing irradiation.

Mediscience  completed  a phase  I  clinical  feasibility  study  at New  York's
Memorial  Sloan-Kettering  Hospital in 1994 and  demonstrated the feasibility of
Tissue  Fluorescence  Spectroscopy to distinguish among cancerous,  precancerous
and normal  tissue in the oral  cavity.  A phase II clinical  study is currently
pending  at  Memorial  Sloan-Kettering  to build on the  earlier  work under the
cosponsorship of the National Cancer Institute and Mediscience.

The Company is also planning to perform additional phase I clinical  feasibility
studies to define additional  medical  applications for its Tissue  Fluorescence
Spectroscopy technology that it can develop for sale to the medical marketplace.
Of the two  clinical  feasibility  studies  that are  committed  presently,  one
involves in vivo optical  diagnosis  of breast  tumors by passing a fine optical
fiber through a minimally invasive stereotactic needle to optically determine if
the tumor is cancerous or benign  without  surgical  excision,  while the second
involves  optical  assessment  of patients  with  Barrett's  esophagus,  a known
precursor  to  esophageal  cancer  in  some  people.  In  addition,  up to  four
additional  clinical  feasibility  studies  are  anticipated  during the next 18
months.

In  addition  to working on its own,  Mediscience  is also  seeking  one or more
corporate alliance arrangements to jointly develop specific end use applications
for its two  technologies.  The Company is also  selectively  considering  other
non-medical   applications  of  its  technology   through  possible   partnering
arrangements.
<PAGE>
Mediscience  subcontracts  its research and  development  through an arrangement
with the City  University of New York.  Dr. Robert  Alfano,  a consultant to the
Company,  distinguished  professor  of science and  engineering  at CUNY and the
inventor  of  the  technology,  supervises  the  Company's  research  as  CUNY's
Principal  Investigator.  As a result of the contract research relationship with
CUNY, the Company has exclusive  rights to 12 patents and optional  rights to 17
pending  patents.  Mediscience  also  licensed  3 other  patents  from two other
institutions.

The Company has a research agreement with Memorial  Sloan-Kettering Hospital for
investigation of its Tissue Fluorescence  Spectroscopy  technology and maintains
close  working  relationships  with  Columbia  Presbyterian  Hospital,  New York
Hospital's Cornell Medical Center and Massachusetts General Hospital. The breast
clinical feasibility study is scheduled to be conducted at Massachusetts General
Hospital and the Barrett's esophagus  feasibility study is scheduled for Cornell
Medical Center.

Two Prototype  devices have been developed and a third is in progress.  CD Scan,
the first device,  has been tested  pre-clinically  and was successfully used in
the above noted phase I clinical feasibility study at Memorial  Sloan-Kettering.
CD  Ratiometer,  the  Company's  second device has been used  successfully  on a
pre-clinical  basis and will be employed in each of the pending phase I clinical
feasibility  studies,  i.e.,  optical  breast  biopsy  and  Barrett's  esophagus
studies.

In an effort to address  its  liquidity  problems  and its  shortage  of capital
resources,  the Company successfully completed a $2,000,000 private placement of
its common stock in April, 1996. The Company continues to explore  codevelopment
arrangements  with other  companies  to defray  costs and  extend the  Company's
capital and human  resources.  The Company's  ability to maintain its operations
throughout its history has been dependent upon the periodic  infusion of capital
and the willingness of its creditors to accept payment beyond normal terms.

The Company  believes that its recent  private  placement  offering will satisfy
it's working capital needs beyond the end of its current fiscal year.
