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

INTRODUCTION

         FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS  AND ASSOCIATED  RISKS.  This Annual Report
contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding, among other
things, (a) the growth strategies of Genetic Vectors, Inc. (the "Company"),  (b)
anticipated trends in the Company's industry, (c) the Company's future financing
plans and (d) the Company's ability to obtain financing and continue operations.
In  addition,   when  used  in  this  Annual  Report,   the  words   "believes,"
"anticipates,"  "intends," "in anticipation  of," and similar words are intended
to identify certain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
are based largely on the Company's  expectations  and are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties,  many of which are beyond the Company's control. Actual
results  could differ  materially  from these  forward-looking  statements  as a
result  of  changes  in  trends  in the  economy  and  the  Company's  industry,
reductions in the availability of financing and other factors. In light of these
risks and  uncertainties,  there can be no  assurance  that the  forward-looking
statements  contained in this Annual Report will in fact occur. The Company does
not undertake any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to
these  forward-looking  statements that may be made to reflect any future events
or circumstances.

         On April 27, 1999,  the Company  filed its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
("Form  10-KSB") for the year ended December 31, 1998.  Prior to filing the Form
10-KSB,  the Company learned from its independent  public  accountants that they
could after additional  review only render a disclaimer of opinion in connection
with the Company's audited financial statements. The Company decided to file the
Form 10-KSB with unaudited financial statements.  Since that time, the audit was
completed.  This  Amendment  No. 1 to the Form  10-KSB  contains  the  Company's
audited financial statements.

         Genetic Vectors, Inc. (the "Company" or "Genetic Vectors") had cash and
cash equivalents of $109,924 as of December 31, 1998 compared to $2.1 million as
of  December  31,  1997.  On  March  31,  1999,  the  Company  had cash and cash
equivalents  of  $67,369.  Since  March 31,  1999,  the  Company  has  raised an
additional $1,125,000 in capital, consisting of the following:

         On April 19, 1999, the Company  obtained a $100,000 loan from a private
investor.  On May 10, 1999, the Company  obtained a $225,000  equity  investment
from the sale of  225,000  shares of the  Company's  common  stock.  The  equity
investor  paid $1.00 per share for the 225,000  shares of the  Company's  common
stock,  or $4.75 per share less than the closing price of $5.75 per share on May
10, 1999. On July 16, 1999, the Company  obtained a $400,000  equity  investment
from the sale of 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  These two equity
investors  paid $1.00 per share for the 400,000  shares of the Company's  common
stock, or $4.75 per share less than the closing price of $5.75 per share on July
16,  1999.  On October  6, 1999,  the  Company  obtained a $200,000  loan from a
private  investor.  On November 19, 1999,  the Company  obtained a $200,000 loan
from a private investor.  See "Market For Common Equity and Related  Stockholder
Matters -- Sales of Unregistered Securities."

         As of November  22, 1999,  the Company  received a total of $938,500 in
loans  dating  back to  November 2, 1998 in seven  separate  loan  transactions.
Interest  became  payable  on two of these  loans  (with  principal  aggregating
$150,000)  on April 1, 1999,  on two other  loans  (with  principal  aggregating
$288,500)  on April 19,  1999 and on another  loan (with  principal  aggregating
$100,000) on June 1, 1999.  The Company is in default on these loans for failing
to pay the required interest  payments.  The remaining two loans (with principal
aggregating  $400,000) become payable on January 19, 2000. Four of these loans (
with principal  aggregating  $788,500) are secured by  substantially  all of the
Company's  assets.  The  Company's  ability to pay any interest or to repay such
loans is  completely  dependent  on the  Company's  ability to raise  additional
capital from external  sources.  The Company's failure to raise such capital and
to pay all accrued but unpaid interest and  subsequently to repay the loans upon
maturity may result in the foreclosure on the Company's assets.  This would have
a material  adverse effect on the Company's  business,  financial  condition and
results of operations and would jeopardize the Company's  ability to continue as
a going concern.



                                       2

         The Company is  dependent  on external  capital to finance its business
operations.  Such  external  capital  will also be necessary  for the  Company's
operations  to reach a level  where it may  internally  generate  the cash  flow
necessary  to  sustain  its  operations.  The  Company  has  received  informal,
non-binding  assurances from a source which has previously  provided the Company
with  external  capital  that it will assist the  Company in raising  additional
capital for the expansion of its business. The Company has no commitment for any
additional  capital  and no  assurances  can be given that the  Company  will be
successful  in raising any new  capital.  The  Company's  inability to raise new
capital will have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to continue
to  research  and  develop  its  proposed  products  and to market  and sell its
existing products, and will have a material adverse effect on its operations and
financial  condition.  See  "Management's  Plan of Operation and  Discussion and
Analysis --  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."

situation,  see  "Certain  Business  Risk  Factors  - Future  Capital  Needs and
Uncertainty of Additional Funding";  "Certain Business Risk Factors - Ability to
Repay   Secured   Indebtedness;   Existing   Defaults  on   Indebtedness";   and

GENERAL INFORMATION

         The Company is a  biotechnology  company which intends to specialize in
the   development   of   diagnostic   and   quality   control   tools   for  the
biopharmaceutical, food and beverage industries. The Company was founded in 1991
by Dr. Mead McCabe (the  Chairman of the Board of  Directors of the Company) who
invented  a  new  nucleic  acid   labeling   and   detection   technology   (the
"Technology").  The  Technology  consists  of patents  and  patent  applications
originally  filed in the name of or for the benefit of the  University of Miami,
and  unpatented  confidential  and  non-confidential  know-how,  which is either
proprietary  or in the public domain.  Part of the  Technology  relates to a new


                                       3

<PAGE>

nucleic acid and method  described in University of Miami  Invention  Disclosure
UM90-16,  which  invention  was  made  under  a grant  from  the  United  States
Government.  Additional  nucleic acids and methods were described in the patents
and  patent  applications  filed  in the  name  of or  for  the  benefit  of the
University of Miami,  some of which were made using University  facilities.  The
antibody was described in University of Miami Invention  Disclosure  UM87-90 and
its  preparation  is the subject of a published  paper and an  abandoned  patent
application which is not available to the public.

         The Technology is the basis for the Company's initial product line, the
EpiDNA(TM),  which includes the Company's first product, the Picogram Assay (the
"Picogram  Assay").  A second proposed  product line,  EasyID(TM),  combines the
EpiDNA  technology  with gene probes in kits for the detection of yeasts.  These
kits are intended for quality control in the food and beverage  industry and for
identification of proprietary yeasts in the brewing and wine-making industry.

         After removing the Picogram Assay from the marketplace during the third
quarter of 1997, the Company has completed the refinement of the EpiDNA Picogram
Assay Kit (the  "Picogram  Assay  Kit").  During the  twelve-month  period ended
December  31,  1998,  the Company has not  generated  significant  revenues  and
remains  largely  a  development  stage  company.  In  July  1998,  the  Company
reintroduced the Picogram Assay Kit to the marketplace and is closely monitoring
its market  acceptance.  The  Company's  cash  shortage  limited  the  Company's
marketing efforts to support the reintroduction of the Picogram Assay. There can
be  no  assurances  that  the  Picogram  Assay  Kit  will  be  accepted  by  the
marketplace.

EPIDNA TECHNOLOGY

         DETECTION  OF  NUCLEIC  ACIDS.  The  EpiDNA  technology  is  a  broadly
applicable  method for labeling and detecting  nucleic acids,  particularly DNA.
The  importance of the ability to attach labels to nucleic acids arises from the
use of nucleic  acids as probes to  identify,  locate and isolate DNA  fragments
containing a single gene in a mixture of DNA fragments  containing  thousands of
different  genes.  DNA labeling  technology  is  analogous  to the  photographic
development  process.  The label makes the results of esoteric DNA hybridization
reactions  visible to the naked eye in the same sense that developing  solutions
render the latent  image in a  photograph  visible.  The visual  results of this
process are pictures of DNA hybrids or DNA fingerprints. Nucleic acid probes are
usually labeled with radioactivity so that the probe and the gene to which it is
bound can be located. The use of non-radioactive labels on probes is becoming an
increasingly  attractive  alternative  because of the  dangers  associated  with
radioactivity  and the expense of disposing  of  radioactive  waste.  The EpiDNA
technology can be used to make these types of  non-radioactive  labeled  nucleic
acid probes.

         The EpiDNA labeling  technology involves a versatile chemical procedure
for attaching labels to nucleic acids.  Genetic Vectors believes this process is
unique in its ability to attach a variety of labels to nucleic acids, regardless
of the size of the nucleic acid. The process is normally  completed within a few
hours,  and can be  accomplished  in a single  test tube with no loss of nucleic
acid.  The Company  believes that scaling the reaction up to  production  levels
(milligram  and gram  amounts of nucleic  acids) is  possible.  The core  EpiDNA
technology is suited for the  attachment  of any  detectable  molecule  (such as
biotin,  fluorescent  or  phosphorescent  compounds,  enzymes or  chelators)  to
nucleic acids.

                                       4

<PAGE>

         The EpiDNA technology is not restricted to the labeling of probes,  but
can also  provide  a method  to  accurately  measure  nucleic  acids at very low
concentrations. This characteristic of the Technology provides the basis for the
Picogram Assay which is targeted to process  development and monitoring,  and to
quality control and research laboratories.

         THE   EPIDNA    PICOGRAM    ASSAY.    Processes    for    manufacturing
biopharmaceuticals,  such as monoclonal  antibodies  and  recombinant  proteins,
result in potentially harmful  contamination with DNA, the material that carries
the  genetic  code and could  carry  cancer-causing  oncogenes.  FDA  guidelines
recommend that manufacturers monitor the content of DNA to assure that the level
of DNA does not exceed 100 picograms per injected  dose.  Under FDA  guidelines,
each biopharmaceutical manufacturer must devise its own in-house quality control
protocol to determine  the purity of each  product.  Companies are free to adapt
current technology, including commercially available assays, to this purpose.

         The Picogram Assay combines chemical and  immunochemical  procedures to
measure trace amounts of DNA. The assay is relatively easy to perform,  measures
DNA in a range of one to one hundred  picograms,  can detect small  fragments of
DNA, and is complete in about three hours.  As reported in the Company's  10-KSB
filed in April 1998, prior to its preliminary launch of the Program Assay in the
third quarter of 1997,  the Company had  eliminated a step in the Picogram Assay
which was  intended  to make the assay more user  friendly.  Subsequent  to this
preliminary  launch,  it was suspected that the  elimination of this step caused
the assay to lose some  reproducibility  in the  ultra-sensitive  lower limit of
measurability.  Accordingly,  management of the Company felt that it was prudent
to temporarily  remove the product from the market until the product's  original
reproducibility could be restored.  Accordingly,  the Picogram Assay was removed
from the  marketplace  in December,  1997.  However,  through the  redevelopment
process the Company  discovered that removal of this step did not cause the loss
of  sensitivity.  Instead,  the Company  discovered  that plastic  tubes holding
certain reagents caused the problem by adherence of a portion of the reagents to
the  inside  of the  tube.  Subsequently,  the  Company  changed  the  tubes and
reintroduced the Picogram Assay to the market in the third quarter of 1998.

         The use of the  Picogram  Assay does not require the  purchase of major
equipment, since the assay utilizes a standard microtiter plate reader, which is
routine in biopharmaceutical quality control laboratories. The assay is designed
for routine  application by technicians  and is intended for validation of final
product purity.

EASYID MICROBIAL IDENTIFICATION TECHNOLOGY

         Genetic  Vectors  is  developing  the EasyID  technology  for the rapid
identification of yeasts and other microbes of commercial and research interest.
The Company's  development  efforts have been affected by the Company's  working
capital  shortage.  EasyID  technology  is based on a series of small DNA chains
known as DNA probes. DNA probes are used in gene detection techniques to clearly
identify specific genes. DNA probes also have a common day-to-day application in
the  identification  of  microbes,   usually  in  health-  or   research-related
applications.  Basic EasyID kits will provide DNA probes that should allow clear
identification  of yeast species or strains by detecting a gene possessed solely
by that  species or strain.  The Company  intends to join its EpiDNA  technology
with its EasyID  technology to produce labeled probes.  Genetic Vectors believes
that its EasyID kits  should  give users a rapid means for yeast  identification
because  results  should  normally be  obtained in about two hours.  The Company
believes  that  these  assays can be  refined  to run in about  fifteen  minutes

                                       5

<PAGE>

similar to other DNA probe tests.  This is a major improvement over conventional
culture-based  identification techniques,  which often take days to complete and
are sometimes inaccurate.

         A  commercial  antibody-based  test for yeast is  available,  but costs
about $15 per test.  Genetic  Vectors  believes  that its  EasyID DNA probe will
allow accurate identification of yeast species and strains, at a lower cost than
existing products and much more rapidly than conventional techniques.

         One market for these probes is in quality control in the manufacture of
wines. Wineries depend on proprietary yeast strains for the production of a high
quality product. The Company believes that wine producers are not currently able
to specifically  identify wine yeast strains with  conventional  microbiological
techniques.  The Company  believes that its probes will provide the producers of
wine with a dependable and rapid means to identify their proprietary strains and
to detect  contaminating  yeast  during  the  fermentation  process  and  during
storage.

         Many food and beverage manufacturers have problems with spoilage caused
by yeast contamination of their products.  Conventional  culture-based detection
methods are not  well-suited to quality control in this area because of the time
required for results.  Genetic Vectors believes that the EasyID  technology will
allow the  development  of a series  of tests  that will  detect  yeast  strains
commonly  found as  contaminants  of foods and beverages.  The Company  believes
these assays can be used as a sensitive and rapid quality control mechanism.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         The   Company   spent   approximately    $984,937   and   $805,711   on
Company-sponsored  research and development  activities during its 1998 and 1997
fiscal   years,   respectively.   The  Company  did  not  conduct  any  material
customer-sponsored  research and development  activities  during either of those
fiscal years.

MARKETING AND SALES

         The Company temporarily removed the Picogram Assay from the marketplace
in  December,  1997,  and  reintroduced  it in the third  quarter  of 1998.  The
Company's  marketing  activities in connection  with the  reintroduction  of the
Picogram  Assay  were  limited  by  the  Company's   working  capital  shortage.
Accordingly,  the Company remains  largely a development  stage company with the
Company's expenditures far exceeding its revenues.


         Genetic Vectors intends to use EpiDNA and EasyID  technology to fashion
diagnostic  tools for use in quality control and quality  assurance  programs in
the food and beverage  industry  but there can be no assurance  that this can be
accomplished successfully or at all.

         The  Company  has  received  conflicting   information   regarding  the
potential  market for its Picogram Assay.  Such  information  indicates that the
potential  annual  market for the  Picogram  Assay  ranges  from  $4,000,000  to
$20,000,000. If the actual market for this product is near the lower end of this
range,  the Company will have substantial  difficulty in generating  significant
sales.

REGULATION

         The Company's  operations  will be subject to federal,  state and local
regulations  to  which  business  operations  are  normally  subject,  including
occupational safety and health acts, workmen compensation statutes, unemployment
insurance,  and  income  tax  and  social  security  related  regulations.   The
biotechnology  industry is also subject to federal,  state and local regulations
with  regard  to the  construction,  maintenance,  containment  and  release  of
genetically engineered organisms and the manufacturing of diagnostic devices for
human  use.  The  Company  currently  has  no  plans  to  construct  or  release
genetically  altered organisms or to produce  diagnostic  devices for human use,
and  accordingly  the Company does not anticipate  that these  regulations  will
affect it or its operations.

         The Company's  operations  will be subject to applicable  environmental
laws and  regulations.  The  Company's  operations  will  entail the storage and
disposal of small amounts of biological and chemical hazardous wastes. The costs
that the  Company  has  incurred  to date in  connection  with  compliance  with
environmental  laws and  regulations  have not been  material,  and the  Company
anticipates  that such costs will not be  material  in the  foreseeable  future.
There can be no assurance, however, that this will be the case. The Company does
not anticipate that any significant capital  expenditures  related to compliance
with environmental laws will be required in the foreseeable future.

         Diagnostic and therapeutic  devices and tests that are intended for use
in humans generally require direct FDA approval.  Devices and tests not intended
for use in humans,  however,  are generally not required to obtain FDA approval.
The FDA can also set  industry-wide  required  tests and  approvals.  All of the
Company's  current and  proposed  products are  designed  either for  industrial
quality control or for research purposes and are, therefore,  not subject to FDA
approval.  For example,  the  Company's  EasyID  products are not subject to FDA
approval because they focus on the determination of particular species of yeasts
and fungi in connection with brewing industry applications.

MANUFACTURING

         The  Company's  research  and  development  and  executive  offices are
located at 5201 N.W. 77th Avenue,  Suite 100, Miami,  Florida. In addition,  the
Company relies on outside  vendors to  manufacture  all of the components of its
EpiDNA Picogram Assay.

         Certain key  components  of the  Company's  Picogram  Assay product are
currently  provided by a limited  number of  sources,  and many  components  are
provided by outside vendors.  One component is provided by a single source.  The
Company is utilizing  contract  manufacturers to manufacture  required reagents.
Two key components of the EpiDNA  Picogram  Assay Kit, the  "GeNuncTM"  reaction
modules and the  "MaxisorpTM"  immunomodules  are manufactured by NUNC (a Danish
entity), but can also be obtained from United States distributors such as Fisher
Scientific,  V.W.R. or Baxter Scientific.  The "AmpakTM" detection system, which
is also a key component of the Picogram  Assay,  is available only from a single
source  of  supply.   Additionally,   the  Company   contracts   with  Fujirebio
Diagnostics, Inc. for manufacturing of certain reagents, assembly and packaging.

STRATEGY FOR GROWTH

         In the event the Company is able to raise additional  capital,  Genetic
Vectors intends to expand its business opportunities through increased marketing
efforts (as  outlined in  "Marketing  and Sales") and by  expanding  its product
lines (as described in other  sections).  The Company intends to attempt to form
strategic  alliances with corporate  partners that can provide  distribution for
the  Company's  products or research and  development  support for its long term
research and development activities. The Company's labeling, detection and assay
kits may  provide an  attractive  means for a  strategic  partner to enhance its
existing product lines. The Company may also seek to license or sublicense those
applications  of the Technology that are either outside its product focus or for
which funding is inadequate.

         Additionally,  the Company  believes that there are favorable  business
acquisition  opportunities  that  would  enable it to expand its  business  more
rapidly.  To  date,  the  Company  has been  unsuccessful  in  consummating  any
acquisitions  and has expended  approximately  $152,000 in pursuing  acquisition
opportunities.  Management believes that the successful  consummation of several
of these  acquisition  opportunities  would  enable it to achieve  economies  of
scale, improve gross margins and increase revenues and/or market share. However,
the Company's  ability to pursue or  consummate  any  acquisition  is completely
dependent on its ability to obtain significant  additional  capital.  Generally,
shareholder approval will not be required in connection with such activities.

COMPETITION

         The  biotechnology  industry  is subject to  intense  competition.  The
Company's  competitors in the United States and internationally are numerous and
include,   among   others,   diagnostics,   health  care,   pharmaceutical   and
biotechnology  companies.   Additionally,   other  companies,   including  large
biotechnology  companies,  may  enter  the  Company's  business  in the  future.
Potential  competitors may be able to develop technologies that are as effective
as, or more  effective or easier to interpret than those offered by the Company,
which would render the Company's products noncompetitive or obsolete.  Moreover,
many of the Company's  existing and  potential  competitors  have  substantially
greater financial,  marketing,  sales,  distribution and technological resources
than the  Company.  Such  existing  and  potential  competitors  may also  enjoy
substantial  advantages  over the Company in terms of research  and  development
expertise,  experience in conducting  clinical trials,  experience in regulatory
matters,   manufacturing  efficiency,  name  recognition,  sales  and  marketing
expertise and distribution channels.  There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to compete  successfully  against current or future  competitors or
that  competition  will not have a  material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.

         Genetic  Vectors'  chosen area of  business  lies in the  labeling  and
detection  of  nucleic  acids  using the  Technology.  The  Company  has  chosen
specifically to market products that are not currently subject to regulation and
that can be marketed  without the  requirement  for  obtaining or licensing  any
additional  technology.  The market which the Company  intends to serve includes
tests for quality control of  biopharmaceutical  drug production and in food and
fermented beverages.  In addition, the Company intends to market its products to
the life science  research  community.  These widely diverse markets result in a
wide variety of competitive situations.

         DNA CONTAMINATION ASSAYS IN  BIOPHARMACEUTICALS.  Several companies are
currently  involved  in  making  or  selling  trace DNA  detection  reagents  or
equipment,  or  performing  assays.  In  this  market  there  are two  types  of
competitors:  (1)  instrument  and reagent  sellers and (2) specialty  reference
labs.  Genetic  Vectors  believes  that the largest  competitive  element in the
current market is specialty reference laboratories. These reference laboratories
offer DNA  assaying  at their  own  facilities  based on their own  individually
developed  assays.  While clearly  competitors,  the Company believes that these
facilities also represent potential customers for its products.

CUSTOMERS

         The   Company's   customers   to  date  have   been   biopharmaceutical
manufacturers.  To date,  the Company has not generated  significant  sales and,
therefore, is not dependent on any customers.

EMPLOYEES

         Genetic Vectors currently has five employees, two of whom are executive
officers and all of which are full-time  employees.  See  "Management's  Plan of
Operation  and  Discussion  and  Analysis - Plan of  Operation  - Changes in the
Number  of  Employees."  None  of  the  Company's  employees  are  covered  by a
collective  bargaining agreement and the Company believes its employee relations
are satisfactory.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

         The Company has acquired rights to make, use and sell certain  products
under the  patents  and patent  applications  referred  to herein  pursuant to a
License Agreement dated September 7, 1990 between ProVec,  Inc.,  ("ProVec"),  a
company owned by Dr. Mead McCabe,  and the University of Miami and its School of
Medicine,  the owner of the patents and patent  applications.  The University of
Miami acquired the rights by virtue of an employee  agreement and the University
Patent Policy. Parts of the invention were made using funds of the United States
Government.  On January 20, 1992,  ProVec  assigned its rights under the License
Agreement  to EpiDNA,  Inc., a wholly owned  subsidiary  of the Company.  EpiDNA
merged into the Company on September 6, 1996.

         The  license  granted  under the License  Agreement  is  worldwide  and
exclusive  (except  for the  rights of the  Federal  Government)  providing  the
Company  with the right to  manufacture,  use and sell  products  utilizing  the
patents  and  patent  applications  referred  to  herein.  The  Company  has the
obligation, at its own expense, to prosecute and maintain patents in the name of
or on behalf of the  University of Miami.  Further,  the Company is obligated to
maintain product liability  insurance,  with the University of Miami being named
as an  additional  insured.  The  License  Agreement  provides  for payment of a
maintenance  fee of $500 and a running  royalty  of 4% of net sales of  products
using the  Technology.  The  maintenance  fee is  creditable  against  royalties
subsequently due in a given year. The term of the License  Agreement is the life
of the U.S. patent and/or its foreign counterpart patents. The License Agreement
can be terminated by the University of Miami,  at its  discretion,  for material
breaches  by the  Company.  Primary  among  such  breaches  are  failure to file
quarterly reports of sales, nonpayment of royalties, failure to develop and sell
products  based on the  Technology,  cessation  of sales  for a period  of three
months and bankruptcy or adjudication of insolvency.  A two-month cure period is

                                       9

<PAGE>

provided for correction of breaches.  If the License  Agreement is terminated by
the  University of Miami,  the ownership of the patents and patent  applications
and all rights to develop,  manufacture  and sell products under the patents and
patent  applications will revert to the University of Miami and the Company will
be unable to produce, market or sell products whose manufacture,  use or sale is
covered by the claims of the patents and patent applications referred to herein.
Thus,  the  Company  would  suffer a material  adverse  effect on its  business,
financial  condition and viability if the  University  of Miami  terminated  the
License Agreement.

         Since the patents and patent applications referred to herein were made,
in part,  using  federal  funds  provided  by a  federal  agency,  the  National
Institute of Health ("NIH") has a  nonexclusive,  nontransferable,  irrevocable,
paid-up  worldwide  license to practice the  invention  (35 U.S.C.  202 (c)(4)).
Under  this   nonexclusive   license,   the  NIH  can  use  the   Technology  in
federally-funded  projects  or it can,  if  provided  in a treaty or  agreement,
sublicense the Technology to a foreign government or international organization.
This nonexclusive license to the NIH did not terminate with the licensing of the
Technology  to the  Company.  The NIH also has  certain  rights (35 U.S.C.  203)
allowing  it to  grant  licenses  to  third  parties  if it is  determined  that
practical  application  of  the  invention  is  not  occurring,  even  exclusive
licenses,  as well as march-in  rights to meet unmet health or safety needs,  to
meet requirements for public use specified in federal regulations or for failure
to  manufacture  in the United States or to obtain a waiver of such  provisions.
The grant of an exclusive  license or the exercise of the march-in  rights would
cause the Company to suffer a material adverse effect on its business, financial
condition and viability.  As described herein, the Company has already developed
products based on the  Technology and intends to continue the  commercialization
of the Technology.

         The  Company  has  applied  for and  been  granted,  on  behalf  of the
University of Miami,  patent protection for part of the Technology in the United
States and other  countries.  The patent expires in 2014.  Letters Patent Number
246228 has been issued for the  Technology in New Zealand.  Also, the University
of Miami,  at Company  expense,  has filed for and was granted patents under the
International  Patent Cooperation Treaty,  followed by national stage filings in
Australia,  New Zealand and the European Patent Office.  There are currently two
United States patents for the Technology.

CERTAIN BUSINESS RISK FACTORS

         The  Company  is subject  to  various  risks  which may have a material
adverse effect on its business,  financial  condition and results of operations.
Certain risks are discussed below.

         FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS AND UNCERTAINTY OF ADDITIONAL FUNDING. The Company
had cash and cash  equivalents  of only $156,054 as of December 31, 1998.  Since
that time, the Company has raised $1,413,500 from loans and equity  investments.
The Company is dependent on external capital to finance its business  operations
and to reach a level of operations  sufficient  to internally  generate the cash
flow  necessary to sustain its  operations.  The Company has received  informal,
nonbinding  assurances  from a source which has previously  provided the Company
with  external  capital  that it will assist the  Company in raising  additional
capital for the expansion of its business. The Company has no commitment for any
additional  capital  and no  assurance  can be given  that the  Company  will be
successful in obtaining any additional capital. The Company's inability to raise
new capital  will have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  ability to
continue to research  and develop its  proposed  products and to market and sell
its existing products, and will have a material adverse effect on its operations
and financial condition.

                                       10

<PAGE>

         ABILITY  TO  REPAY   SECURED   INDEBTEDNESS;   EXISTING   DEFAULTS   ON
INDEBTEDNESS.  As of November 22, 1999, the Company received a total of $938,500
in loans dating back to November 2, 1998 in seven  separate  loan  transactions.
Interest became payable on two of these loans (principal  totaling  $150,000) on
April 1, 1999,  on two other loans  (principal  totaling  $288,500) on April 19,
1999 and on another loan  (principal  totaling  $100,000)  on June 1, 1999.  The
Company is in default on these  loans for failing to pay the  required  interest
payments.  The remaining two loans (principal  totaling $400,000) become payable
on January 19,  2000.  Four of these loans  (principal  totaling  $788,500)  are
secured by substantially all of the Company's  assets.  The Company's ability to
pay any interest or to repay such loans is completely dependent on the Company's
ability to raise additional capital from external sources. The Company's failure
to  raise  such  capital  and  to  pay  all  accrued  but  unpaid  interest  and
subsequently to repay the loans upon maturity may result in a foreclosure on the
Company's  assets.  This would have a material  adverse  effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations and would jeopardize the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

         LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND EXPECTATION OF FUTURE LOSSES. The Company
was organized in 1991 and since inception has been in the development  stage. To
date,  the Company has  generated  very  limited  revenues  from the sale of its
product.  Further,  the  Company  has  devoted  most of its  efforts  to various
organizational   activities,   including   research  and   development  and  the
development  of a business  strategy.  From its inception  through  December 31,
1998, the Company has incurred  cumulative losses of approximately $6.1 million.
The Company  expects to incur  substantial  losses through the second quarter of
2000 due, in part, to research and  development,  distributing and marketing its
product.  There  can  be no  assurance  that  the  Company  will  not  encounter
substantial  delays and unexpected  expenses  related to research,  development,
production  and  marketing  or other  unforeseen  difficulties,  which may cause
additional losses.

         UNCERTAIN  MARKET  ACCEPTANCE  AND  DEPENDENCE  ON A LIMITED  NUMBER OF
PRODUCTS.  The Company currently has two products, the Picogram Assay and DNAMAX
Kit, and another  product line under  development,  the EasyID  product line. As
such,  the Company is highly  dependent on a limited  number of products and the
Company's  long-term  success  may  depend  on the  market  acceptance  of these
products.  Market acceptance of the Company's  products will depend, in part, on
the  Company's  ability to  demonstrate  the  superiority  of its products  with
respect to existing techniques,  including the products' accuracy,  ease of use,
reliability and  cost-effectiveness  and on the  effectiveness  of the Company's
marketing  efforts.  These efforts have been adversely affected by the Company's
working capital  shortage.  No assurance can be given that the Company will gain
market acceptance for its products. Failure to gain market acceptance for either
of these  product  lines will have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.

         TECHNOLOGICAL  UNCERTAINTY AND EARLY STAGE OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.  The
science and  technology  of the  Picogram  Assay,  DNAMAX and EasyID are rapidly
evolving.  Although the Company has conducted  limited  marketing of its initial
product,  other  proposed  products are in the early  development  stage.  These
products will require significant further research,  development and testing and
are  subject to the risks of failure  inherent  in the  development  of products
based on innovative  technologies.  These risks include the possibility that any
or all of  the  proposed  products  are  found  to be  ineffective,  unsafe,  or
otherwise  fail to receive  necessary  regulatory  clearances,  if any, that the
proposed  products,  though  effective,  are uneconomical to market,  that third
parties hold  proprietary  rights that preclude the Company from marketing them,
or that third parties market a superior or equivalent product.  Accordingly, the
Company is unable to predict  whether its  research and  development  activities
will result in any commercially viable products.

                                       11

<PAGE>

         LIMITED   MANUFACTURING   AND  MARKETING   CAPABILITY.   The  Company's
experience in manufacturing  has been limited to the production of small amounts
of kits of its initial  products for use in research and  development  and early
commercialization  of its initial  product.  No assurance  can be given that the
Company will  ultimately be able to obtain or produce  sufficient  quantities of
such product at commercially reasonable costs.

         The Company  has limited  experience  in  marketing  its product and no
assurance exists that the Company can market its product in an effective manner.
The Company intends to market its product in the United States,  Europe and Asia
through a network of independent distributors supported by a direct sales force,
but no sales force is yet in place,  and no  distribution  agreements  have been
entered into. The Company's ability to market its product in Europe and Asia and
other areas will depend on the Company's ability to fund such efforts as well as
the Company's  ability to develop strategic  alliances with marketing  partners.
There can be no assurance  that the Company will enter into such  alliances with
other companies on favorable terms or at all.

         RISK OF PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS.  The nature of the Company's business
exposes it to risk from product liability claims.  The Company maintains product
liability  insurance for its products  with limits of $1 million per  occurrence
and $2 million in the aggregate per year.  Such insurance  coverage is, however,
becoming increasingly expensive and there can be no assurance that the Company's
insurance will be adequate to cover future product liability claims, or that the
Company will be successful in maintaining  adequate product liability  insurance
at acceptable rates. In addition, due to the Company's working capital shortage,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to fund the premiums for
its  existing  insurance.  Any losses  that the  Company  may suffer from future
liability claims,  and any adverse publicity from product liability  litigation,
may  have a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company's  business,  financial
condition and results of operations.

         UNCERTAINTY  REGARDING  PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY  RIGHTS.  The Company's
success  will  depend in part on its  ability  to  obtain  and  maintain  patent
protection  for its products,  preserve its trade secrets,  and operate  without
infringing the proprietary  rights of other parties.  Because of the substantial
length  of time and  expense  associated  with  bringing  new  products  through
development to the marketplace,  the biotechnology  industry places considerable
importance on obtaining and maintaining  patent and trade secret  protection for
new technologies,  products and processes. Legal standards relating to the scope
of claims and the validity of patents in the  biotechnology  field are uncertain
and evolving.  There can be no assurance that patent  applications  to which the
Company  holds rights will result in the  issuance of patents,  that any patents
issued or licensed to the Company will not be challenged and held to be invalid,
or that any such patents will provide commercially significant protection to the
Company's  technology,  products and  processes.  In  addition,  there can be no
assurance that others will not independently  develop  substantially  equivalent
proprietary  information  not covered by patents to which the Company has rights
or obtain  access to the  Company's  know-how  or that others will not be issued
patents which may prevent the sale of one or more of the Company's products,  or
require  licensing  and the  payment of  significant  fees or  royalties  by the
Company to third parties in order to enable the Company to conduct its business.
Defense and  prosecution  of patent claims can be expensive and time  consuming,
regardless of whether the outcome is favorable to the Company, and can result in
the diversion of substantial financial, management, and other resources from the
Company's  other  activities.  An adverse  outcome  could subject the Company to

                                       12

<PAGE>

significant  liability to third parties,  require the Company to obtain licenses
from third  parties,  or require the Company to cease any related  research  and
development  activities  or  product  sales.  In  addition,  the laws of certain
countries may not protect the Company's  intellectual property. No assurance can
be given  that any  licenses  required  under any such  third-party  patents  or
proprietary rights would be made available on commercially  reasonable terms, if
at all. In addition, due to the Company's working capital shortage, there can be
no  assurance  that the Company  will be able to continue  its  existing  patent
applications.

         The Company's success is also dependent upon the skills, knowledge, and
experience  of its  scientific  and  technical  personnel.  To help  protect its
rights,  the  Company has  required  and plans to continue to require all of its
employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality
agreements  that prohibit the disclosure of  confidential  information to anyone
outside the Company and require  disclosure and in most cases  assignment to the
Company of their ideas, developments,  discoveries and inventions.  There can be
no assurance,  however,  that these agreements will provide adequate  protection
for the Company's trade secrets,  know-how or other  proprietary  information in
the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.

         DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL;  INEXPERIENCE OF MANAGEMENT. The Company's
ability  to  successfully  manage its growth  will  substantially  depend on its
ability to attract and retain additional qualified management personnel. Because
of the  Company's  cash  shortage,  its  ability to attract or retain  qualified
personnel  has been  hindered.  This cash shortage has caused the Company to pay
only  one-half of its  employees'  salaries  during  portions of December  1998,
January 1999, February 1999, April 1999, and for all of March 1999. On April 23,
1999,  the  Company  paid the unpaid  salary for some if its  employees  for the
period from  December  1998  through  April 16, 1999.  On December 9, 1998,  the
Company issued the employees options to purchase an aggregate of 4,393 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share or approximately $2.25 less
than the closing  price on that date.  In 1999,  the Company  repurchased  1,171
options  from its  employees  for an  aggregate  purchase  price of $2,635.  The
Company has issued stock options to its non-executive  employees for accrued and
unpaid salaries.  Currently,  none of the Company's administrative staff has any
experience in running a large company or a company whose securities are publicly
held, apart from the Company.  There can be no assurance that the demands placed
on  Company  personnel  by the cash  shortage  or the  growth  of the  Company's
business  and the need for close  monitoring  of the  Company's  operations  and
financial  performance  through  appropriate  and  reliable  administrative  and
accounting  procedures  and  controls  will be met,  or that  the  Company  will
otherwise  manage its  growth  successfully;  the  failure to do so could have a
material  adverse  affect on the Company's  business,  results of operations and
financial condition.  There is significant  competition for qualified personnel,
and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in recruiting,
retaining or training  the  management  personnel  it requires.  The Company has
designated Mead M. McCabe, Jr. as its interim principal  financial officer.  The
Company  currently has no officer with  experience in managing the financial and
accounting functions of a publicly-held company.

         The Company currently leases approximately 14,000 square feet of office
space located at 5201 N.W. 77th Avenue,  Suite 100, Miami,  Florida 33166.  This
lease,  which was  entered  into on June 12,  1997,  has a ten-year  term.  This

MARKET INFORMATION

         The Company's  shares of common stock,  par value $0.001 per share (the
"Common Stock"), is traded in the  over-the-counter  market and is quoted on the
Over-the-Counter  Bulletin  Board (the "OTC  Bulletin  Board")  under the symbol
"GVEC."  Effective  November,  15, 1999, the Company was no longer in compliance
with the National  Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc. filing requirements.
Accordingly,  the letter "E" was appended to the trading  symbol.  Once the NASD
receives notification that the Company complies with the filing requirement, the
fifth letter "E" will be removed.  Until the Company  complies with these filing
requirements,  the Company's  symbol is "GVECE." The  following  table shows the
high and low bid prices for the Common  Stock for each  quarter  within the last
two fiscal  years(1).  The  Company's  closing price as of November 22, 1999 was
$5.0312.

HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK

         As of October 13, 1999,  there were  approximately 54 holders of record
of the Common Stock. The Company believes it has in excess of 450  non-objecting
beneficial owners of its Common Stock.

DIVIDENDS

         The Company has not paid any dividends on its Common Stock at any time.
Section 607.06401 of Florida Statutes  prohibits the payment of dividends by any
corporation  which after taking into account such dividend  would not be able to
pay its debts as they  become due or which  would  result in such  corporation's
total assets being less than its total liabilities.  This provision may prohibit
the Company from paying  dividends  unless the Company  obtains  significant new
capital. Other than the foregoing,  the Company is not aware of any restrictions
on its  ability  to pay  dividends  on  its  Common  Stock,  but  the  Company's
management does not anticipate paying any dividends for the foreseeable future.

SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

         In June and August of 1998,  the  Company  issued an  aggregate  of 709
shares in  exchange  for  consulting  services  valued by the Company at $6,000,
based on the closing  price on the date of grant.  This Offering was exempt from
registration  pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act").

         On September 8, 1998, the Company  granted  warrants to purchase 50,000
shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $6.00 per share to
a  consultant  (the  "Consultant")  to assist the  Company to obtain  additional
financing. These warrants were immediately exercisable. The closing price of the

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

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENTS


                                       19

<PAGE>

         The Company temporarily removed the Picogram Assay from the marketplace
in December,  1997 and subsequently  re-launched it in the third quarter of 1998
but has not generated  significant sales revenue.  The Company remains largely a
development  stage company,  with the Company's  expenditures  far exceeding its
revenues.  Because the  Company  has not  generated  significant  revenues,  the
Company intends to continue to report its plan of operation.

PLAN OF OPERATION

         ADDITIONAL  FUND  RAISING  ACTIVITIES.  The  Company  is  dependent  on
external capital to finance its business operations.  Such external capital will
also be necessary for the Company's  operations to reach a level in which it may
internally  generate  the cash flow  necessary  to sustain its  operations.  The
Company's  inability to raise new capital will have a material adverse effect on
the Company's  ability to continue to research and develop its proposed products
and to market and sell its existing  products,  and will have a material adverse
effect  on its  operations  and  financial  condition.  The  plan  of  operation
described in this Annual  Report  assumes that the Company will be successful in
raising additional capital.  The failure to raise additional capital will, among
other  things,  cause  deviations  from the plan of operation  described in this
Annual Report.

         SUMMARY OF ANTICIPATED PRODUCT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Subject to the
qualifications  above,  the  Company  will  continue  its product  research  and
development and continue to implement what the Company believes to be a feasible
plan for product development. The Company is outsourcing production of theEpiDNA
Picogram Assay Kit and manufacturing its second product the DNAMAX kit in house.
The major components of the plan of operations are as follows:

2000     o     Continued  research  in  applications of Genetic Vectors' nucleic
               acid labeling technology.

         o     Continuation   of  EasyID  DNA  probe  product   development  for
               diagnostic  uses in  certain  clinical  diagnostic  and  food and
               beverages markets.

         o     Completion  of first DNA labeling  product for test  marketing in
               the molecular biology research market.

         o     Research  in the  application  of  automated  techniquest  of DNA
               analysis for EpiDNA.

         SIGNIFICANT  PLANT  OR  EQUIPMENT  PURCHASES.   The  Company  does  not
currently  anticipate any significant  plant or equipment  purchases  during the
next twelve months.

         CHANGES IN THE NUMBER OF  EMPLOYEES.  The  Company  currently  has five
employees.  The Company  does not  anticipate  hiring any  additional  personnel
during  the  remainder  of  1999.  If  the  Company  is  successful  in  raising
significant  new  capital,  then the  Company  anticipates  hiring  fifteen  new
employees in 2000 in connection  with its research and  development  and product
development  plan. The Company believes that these personnel will be adequate to
accomplish the tasks set forth in its plan.

MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

         The Company  generated  revenues  of $11,275  during  1998,  which were
attributable  to the launch of the  Picogram  Assay.  In  addition,  the Company
recognized  $35,897 in grant revenue  during 1998.  During 1997, the Company was
awarded  a grant for  $99,897  from the  National  Institute  of Health  and the

                                       21

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious  Diseases for rapid  identification
of fungal species.  In this  connection,  the Company  recognized  grant revenue
aggregating  $35,897  and  $64,000  in 1998 and  1997,  respectively.  The award
terminated on February 27, 1998.

         The sales  generated  by the Company  during 1998 were  preliminary  in
nature, and represented the purchase of product samples primarily for evaluation
purposes.  The Company  reintroduced  the Picogram Assay in the third quarter of
1998;  however,  the Company  remains  largely a development  stage company with
expenditures far exceeding revenues.

         Research and development  expenses for 1998 increased by $179,226.  The
increase was largely  attributable to accelerated product improvement efforts on
EpiDNA  Picogram  Assay  kits  and  development  efforts  on the  core  labeling
technology. In addition, the Company created a new research and development cost
center  which the  Company  believes  resulted  in better  tracking  of  certain
research and development  expenses.  This  reclassification  resulted in greater
research and development expenses in 1998 compared to 1997.

         General, selling and administation expenses for 1998 were approximately
the same as in 1997.

         Interest income for 1998 decreased by $136,969  because the Company had
less cash invested during 1998 than in 1997. Interest income was attributable to
interest  earned on  certificates  of deposit and money  market  accounts  which
represented the investment of the net proceeds of the Company's IPO and proceeds
from the issuance of debentures.

         LIQUIDITY  AND  CAPITAL  RESOURCES.  The  Company  had  cash  and  cash
equivalents of $2,102,467 at the beginning of 1998,  consisting primarily of the
net proceeds received by the Company in the IPO. The cash used by the Company in
operating   activities  in  1998   aggregated   $2,125,437.   This  was  largely
attributable  to  research  and  development  and  general  and   administrative
expenses. The Company's net cash used in investing activities aggregated $64,606
during 1998, consisting mainly of purchases of laboratory and office equipment.

         As discussed throughout this Annual Report, the Company has experienced
extreme cash  shortages  since the end of November 1998 through the date of this
Annual Report.  See "Management's  Plan of Operation and Discussion and Analysis
-- Plan of Operation - Additional  Fund Raising  Activities." As of December 31,
1998, the Company had total stockholders'  equity of $563,575 and had short-term
debt of $150,000.  The Company had $109,924 in cash and cash  equivalents  as of
December 31, 1998. Since that time, the Company has raised $1,413,500 from loans
and equity  investments.  In connection with these  transactions,  warrants were
issued  which will result in  substantial  non-cash  financing  costs during the
balance  of 1999 and 2000.  The  Company is  dependent  on  external  capital to
finance its business  operations.  Such external  capital will also be necessary
for the Company's  operations to reach a level where it may internally  generate
the cash  flow  necessary  to  sustain  operations.  The  Company  has  received
informal,  nonbinding assurances from a source which has previously provided the
Company  with  external  capital  that it will  assist  the  Company  in raising
additional capital for the expansion of its business.  See "Management's Plan of
Operation  and  Discussion  and  Analysis -- Plan of  Operation"  and " -- Going
Concern  Opinion." The Company has no commitments for additional  capital and no
assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise any such capital.

         GOING CONCERN OPINION.  The Company's  independent  public  accountants
have added an explanatory  paragraph to their audit opinion issued in connection
with the 1998 financial statements which states that the Company's dependence on
outside  financing and losses since inception raise  substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern.

         YEAR 2000 COMPUTER ISSUES. Computer programs have typically abbreviated
dates by eliminating  the first two digits of the year under the assumption that
these two digits would be 19. As the year 2000 approaches, these systems may not
be able to recognize  current dates which may cause  computer  system failure or
miscalculations  by  computer  programs.  The  Company  believes  it will not be
materially affected by the Year 2000 problem.  The Company's conclusion is based
on a survey of the computer equipment currently in use by the Company.  All such
equipment  was  acquired  by the  Company  within  the  last two  years  and was
Year-2000-compliant  when  acquired.  The  Company  has not  expended a material
amount of costs in this  assessment.  Moreover,  the Company  remains  largely a
research and  development  company and  therefore  its exposure to the Year 2000
problems of its  customers  and  suppliers is minimal.  However,  the Company is
exposed to the risk that one or more of its suppliers could experience Year 2000
problems  that may impact their ability to supply  materials to the Company.  To
date,  the Company is not aware of any Year 2000 problems of its suppliers  that
would have a material adverse impact on the Company's  operations.  Nonetheless,
the inability of suppliers to convert their  computer  systems to avoid any Year
2000  problems  could  jeopardize  the supply of  materials  to the  Company and
therefore have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations. The effect
of  non-compliance  by suppliers is not determinable at this time. The Company's
Year 2000 risks are considered  minimal and no contingency plans are believed to
be necessary.  As a result,  the Company believes the potential  consequences of
Year-2000 problems will not have a material effect on the Company.

         POTENTIAL  ACQUISITION OF DNA SCIENCES. On October 4, 1999, the Company
entered into a  non-binding  letter of intent to acquire DNA  Sciences,  Inc., a
California corporation ("DNA Sciences"). If consummated, the transaction will be
structured as a merger of DNA Sciences with and into the Company. In the merger,
the  shareholders of DNA Sciences will receive 450,000 shares of common stock of
the Company.  The  shareholders  of DNA  Sciences  will also have the ability to
nominate one director to the Company's  Board of Directors.  The Company expects
to consummate this transaction prior to December 31, 1999.

         IMPACT OF INFLATION.  Although inflation has slowed in recent years, it
is still a factor in the United States economy and the Company continues to seek
ways to mitigate its impact. To the extent permitted by competition, the Company
intends to pass increased  costs on to its customers by increasing  sales prices
over time. In addition,  the Company places all of its major supplier  purchases
out to bid.

         NEW  FASB  PRONOUNCEMENTS.  In  June  1998,  the  Financial  Accounting
Standards  Board issued SFAS 133,  "Accounting  for Derivative  Instruments  and
Hedging  Activities."  SFAS 133 requires  companies to recognize all derivatives
contracts as either  assets or  liabilities  in the balance sheet and to measure
them at  fair  value.  If  certain  conditions  are  met,  a  derivative  may be
specifically  designated  as a hedge,  the  objective  of which is to match  the
timing  of  gain  or  loss  recognition  on  the  hedging  derivative  with  the
recognition  of (i) the  changes  in the  fair  value  of the  hedged  asset  or
liability that are  attributable  to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect
of the hedged  forecasted  transaction.  For a derivative  not  designated  as a
hedging  instrument,  the gain or loss is recognized in operations in the period
of  change.  SFAS 133 is  effective  for all  fiscal  quarters  of fiscal  years
beginning after June 15, 2000.

         Historically,  the Company has not entered into  derivatives  contracts
either to hedge existing risks or for  speculative  purposes.  Accordingly,  the
Company  does not  expect  adoption  of the new  standard  on January 1, 2001 to
affect its financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Genetic Vectors, Inc.
(A Development stage Company)

We have audited the  accompanying  balance  sheet of Genetic  Vectors,  Inc.  (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 1998 and the related statements of
operations,  stockholders'  equity  (deficit) and cash flows for each of the two
years in the period  ended  December  31,  1998 and the  cumulative  period from
January  1,  1992  (inception)   through  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 financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the  financial  position of Genetic  Vectors,  Inc., (a
development  stage  company)  as of  December  31,  1998 and the  results of its
operations  and its cash  flows  for each of the two years in the  period  ended
December 31, 1998 and the  cumulative  period from  January 1, 1992  (inception)
through  December 31, 1998 in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  assuming that the
Company  will  continue  as a  going  concern.  As  discussed  in  Note 2 to the
financial  statements,  the Company's dependence on outside financing and losses
since inception 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 2. The financial statements do no include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1.      SUMMARY OF            Organization and Business
        SIGNIFICANT
        ACCOUNTING            Genetic Vectors,  Inc.  (the  "Company"), formerly
        POLICIES              a subsidiary of Nyer Medical Group, Inc. ("Nyer"),
                              was incorporated on December 28, 1991. The Company
                              was organized to supply genetic  engineering tools
                              and  analytical  kits  to  the  biotechnology  and
                              molecular biology markets.  The Company's products
                              are intended to allow biopharmaceutical  companies
                              to test for  biopharmaceutical  product  purity in
                              compliance with regulatory standards.  The Company
                              is in the development  stage and its operations to
                              date have  largely  consisted  of the research and
                              development  of its  products.  The Company had no
                              financial  activities  from  December  28, 1991 to
                              December  31, 1991.  Accordingly,  January 1, 1992
                              has  been  used as the  inception  date  of  these
                              financial statements.

                              These    financial    statements    include    the
                              specifically  identifiable expenses of the Company
                              incurred by Nyer on behalf of the Company.

                              Nyer,   which   previously   owned  74.9%  of  the
                              Company's   common  stock,   distributed   to  its
                              shareholders  512,000 shares,  representing 32% of
                              the  outstanding  shares of the  Company's  common
                              stock as of May 31, 1996.

                              Preparation of Financial Statements
                              -----------------------------------

                              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   all   highly   liquid
                              investments  with an  initial  maturity  of  three
                              months   or  less  when   purchased   to  be  cash
                              equivalents.

                              Research and Development Costs
                              ------------------------------

                              Expenditures  relating  to the  Company's  product
                              research,  development and testing are expensed as
                              incurred.


                              Deferred Loan Costs
                              -------------------

                              Deferred  loan  costs  are  carried  at cost  less
                              accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed
                              using the  straight-line  method  over the life of
                              the notes payable of one year.

                              Equipment and Improvements and Depreciation
                              -------------------------------------------

                              Equipment and  improvements  are recorded at cost.
                              Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful
                              life of the assets  which  range from three to ten
                              years.

                              Patents and License Agreement
                              -----------------------------

                              Patents and the license  agreement  are carried at
                              cost less accumulated  amortization.  Amortization
                              is computed  using the  straight  line method over
                              the  estimated  useful life of the  patents  which
                              range from 15.5 to 17 years.

                              The Company  continually  evaluates  the  carrying
                              value  of  its  patents  and  license   agreement.
                              Impairments   are  recognized  when  the  expected

                              such   intangible   assets  are  less  than  their
                              carrying values.



                              Revenue
                              -------

                              The  Company  recognizes  revenue  from sales upon
                              delivery of the product to a customer.

                              During  1997 the  Company  was awarded a grant for
                              $99,897 from the National  Institute of Health and
                              the National  Institute of Allergy and  Infectious
                              Diseases  for  rapid   identification   of  fungal
                              species.  The award  terminated  on  February  27,
                              1998. In this connection,  the Company  recognized
                              grant revenue  aggregating $35,897 and $64,000 for
                              1998 and 1997, respectively.

                              Income Taxes
                              ------------

                              Income taxes are accounted for using the liability
                              approach  under the  provisions  of  Statement  of
                              Financial    Accounting    Standards    No.   109,
                              "Accounting for Income Taxes."

                              The Company filed a consolidated income tax return
                              with  its   parent   through   March   25,   1996.
                              Thereafter, it filed on a separate company basis.

                              Net Loss Per Common Share
                              -------------------------

                              Net loss per common share is calculated  according
                              to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.

                              common shares outstanding during the year.

                              The Company's  potential issuable shares of common
                              stock  pursuant  to  outstanding   stock  purchase
                              options  and  warrants   are  excluded   from  the
                              Company's  diluted  computation  for each  of  the
                              periods presented as their effect would be antidi-
                              lutive to the Company's net loss.

                              Fair Value of Financial Instruments
                              -----------------------------------

                              The  Company's   financial   instruments   consist
                              principally   of  cash   and   cash   equivalents,
                              receivables,  accounts  payable and notes payable.
                              The carrying amounts of such financial instruments
                              as  reflected  in the  balance  sheet  approximate
                              their  estimated  fair  value as of  December  31,
                              1998. The estimated fair value is not  necessarily
                              indicative   of  the  amounts  the  Company  could
                              realize in a current market  exchange or of future
                              earnings or cash flows.

                              Comprehensive Income
                              --------------------

                              During  1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS No. 130
                              "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income."  SFAS No.  130
                              establishes standards for reporting and display of
                              comprehensive    income,    its   components   and
                              accumulated  balances.   Comprehensive  income  is
                              defined to include  all  changes in equity  except
                              those  resulting  from  investments  by owners and
                              distributions to owners.  Among other disclosures,
                              SFAS No.  130  requires  that all  items  that are
                              required to be recognized under current accounting
                              standards as components of comprehensive income be
                              reported   in  a  financial   statement   that  is
                              displayed  with  the  same   prominence  as  other
                              financial statements.

                              The  adoption  of SFAS  No.  130 did not  have any
                              effect on the Company's  financial  statements for
                              the year ended December 31, 1998.

                              SEGMENT REPORTING

                              During  1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS No. 131
                              "Disclosures  about  Segments of an Enterprise and
                              Related Information." SFAS No. 131 supersedes SFAS
                              No. 14,  "Financial  Reporting  for  Segments of a
                              Business  Enterprise,"  and establishes  standards
                              for the way public  companies  report  information
                              about  operating   segments  in  annual  financial
                              statements  and  requires  reporting  of  selected
                              information  about  operating  segments in interim
                              financial statements issued to the public. It also
                              establishes  standards for  disclosures  regarding
                              products and services,  geographic areas and major
                              customers. SFAS No. 131 defines operating segments
                              as components  of a company  about which  separate
                              financial   information   is  available   that  is
                              evaluated   regularly   by  the  chief   operating
                              decision   maker  in  deciding   how  to  allocate
                              resources and in assessing performance.

                              The  Company  currently  operates  solely  in  one
                              segment,  the  biopharmaceutical   industry,   and
                              therefore  the  adoption  of SFAS No.  131 did not
                              have  any  effect  on  the   Company's   financial
                              statements for the year ended December 31, 1998.

                              In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards
                              Board issued SFAS 133,  "Accounting for Derivative
                              Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities."  SFAS  133
                              requires  companies to recognize  all  derivatives
                              contracts as either assets or  liabilities  in the
                              balance  sheet and to measure  them at fair value.
                              If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be
                              specifically  designated as a hedge, the objective
                              of which is to match  the  timing  of gain or loss
                              recognition  on the  hedging  derivative  with the
                              recognition  of (i) the  changes in the fair value
                              of  the  hedged  asset  or   liability   that  are
                              attributable  to  the  hedged  risk  or  (ii)  the
                              earnings   effect   of   the   hedged   forecasted
                              transaction.  For a derivative not designated as a
                              hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized

                              in operations in the period of change. SFAS 133 is
                              effective for all fiscal  quarters of fiscal years
                              beginning after June 15, 2000.

                              Historically,  the Company  has not  entered  into
                              derivatives  contracts  either  to hedge  existing
                              risks or for  speculative  purposes.  Accordingly,
                              the  Company  does not expect  adoption of the new
                              standard   on   January  1,  2001  to  affect  its
                              financial statements.

2.      LIQUIDITY             The  accompanying  financial  statements have been
                              prepared  assuming the Company will  continue as a
                              going   concern.    This   basis   of   accounting
                              contemplates  the recovery of the Company's assets
                              and the  satisfaction  of its  liabilities  in the
                              normal course of operations.  Since inception, the
                              Company  has been  involved  in the  research  and
                              design  of  its  product,  the  development  of an
                              organizational infrastructure, and the performance
                              of   preliminary    marketing   and    promotional
                              activities.  The  Company's  ultimate  ability  to
                              attain  profitable  operations  is dependent  upon
                              obtaining   additional   financing   adequate   to
                              complete  its  development   activities,   and  to
                              achieve a level of sales  adequate  to support its
                              cost  structure.  Through  December 31, 1998,  the
                              Company incurred losses totaling $6,113,445,  used
                              cash from  operating  activities  in the amount of
                              $5,242,360  and  has  been  unable  to  develop  a
                              customer   base  for  its  product   which  raises
                              substantial  doubt about the Company's  ability to
                              continue as a going concern.

                              Subsequent  to December 31, 1998,  the Company has
                              raised    $1,413,500   from   loans   and   equity
                              investments.  The  Company  is in the  process  of
                              negotiating  a private  placement of securities of
                              $1.5  million   which  it  hopes  to  complete  by
                              January  31, 2000 and a secondary  public offering
                              of  securities  of $10.0 million which it hopes to
                              complete  by  March  31,  2000.  There  can  be no
                              assurance  that the Company will be  successful in
                              consummating  its plans,  or that such  plans,  if
                              consummated,  will  enable  the  Company to attain
                              profitable  operations  or  continue  as  a  going
                              concern.

4.      NOTES PAYABLE         In  November  1998, the Company obtained financing
                              from  two  private   investors   of  $100,000  and
                              $50,000,   respectively.   These  unsecured  notes
                              payable,   are     due  at the earlier of November
                              1999  or  the  closing  of  a  public  or  private
                              placement of equity securities with gross proceeds
                              to the Company of $3,000,000, bear simple interest
                              at 12% annually, payable quarterly beginning April
                              1,  1999,  with 1%  increases  per  month for each
                              month  that  any  portion  of  the  note   remains
                              outstanding after April 1, 1999. In the event that
                              the Company does not make the  principal  payments
                              as stated, the holder is entitled to receive 1,250
                              warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the
                              Company  at $6.00 per  share,  for each month that
                              the  amounts due remains  unpaid  through  October
                              1999 and 2,500 warrants per month thereafter.  The

                              covenants of the notes at December 31, 1998.

                              The Company is currently in default of  this  loan
                              for failing to  pay  the  required  principal  and
                              interest.

        AND                   acid   labeling   and   detection  technology (the
        CONTINGENCIES         "Technology")  pursuant  to  a  license  agreement
                              between  ProVec,  Inc. and the University of Miami
                              and its School of Medicine  which was  assigned to
                              the Company on January 20, 1992. ProVec, Inc., was
                              owned  by the  Company's  Chairman  of the  Board.
                              These rights were acquired  under certain  patents
                              and patent  applications  pursuant  to the license
                              agreement and include the  manufacture of products
                              utilizing  the  Technology  and the  marketing and
                              sale  of  such  products.  The  license  agreement
                              provides  for a  royalty  equal to 4% of net sales
                              and  can  expire  or be  terminated  prior  to the
                              Company's   development   of  products  using  the
                              Technology.

                              In addition,  certain of the Company's patents and
                              patent  applications  were  made,  in part,  using
                              federal  funds  provided  by  a  federal   agency,
                              National  Institute of Health  (NIH),  which has a
                              nonexclusive,     nontransferable,     irrevocable

                              the  Technology  to  the  Company.  NIH  also  has
                              certain  rights  allowing it to grant  licenses to
                              third parties,  even exclusive licenses,  if it is
                              determined  that  practical   application  of  the
                              invention  is not  occurring,  as well as march-in
                              rights to meet unmet health or safety  needs.  The
                              grant of an exclusive license,  or the exercise of
                              march-in rights, would cause the Company to suffer
                              a  material   adverse   effect  on  its  business,
                              financial condition and viability.

                           b) In 1994,  the Company  entered  into an  agreement
                              with an  investment  firm  whereby the  investment
                              firm assisted the Company in obtaining $135,000 in
                              funding    through   its   former    parent.    In
                              consideration for these services, the Company will
                              pay to the investment  firm 5% of sales until five
                              years from the date of the  agreement  have passed
                              or  the   cumulative   payments   total   $50,000,
                              whichever occurs first. During 1997, the agreement
                              was  assigned  to  a  firm   affiliated  with  the
                              Company's  underwriter.   No  payments  were  made
                              through December 31, 1998.

                           c) In   August  1996,  the   Company  entered  into a
                              three year employment  agreement with the Chairman
                              of  the  Board  for a  base  salary  of  $125,000.
                              Pursuant to the agreement, the Company granted ten
                              year  options  vesting  over a three year  period,
                              exercisable  during the period of  employment,  to
                              purchase  100,000  shares  of  common  stock at an
                              exercise price equal to 120% of the initial public
                              offering price per share of common stock.

                          d)  The  Company  entered  into  a  new  lease  during
                              June 1997 for office  and  laboratory  space.  The
                              facility is leased for a ten year term with annual
                              rental  payments  of  approximately  $192,000  and
                              annual  increases of 3%. In December of 1998,  the
                              Company  renegotiated  the lease  reducing  annual
                              rental  payments  to  approximately  $164,000  and
                              annual  increases of 3%. Rent expense for 1998 and
                              1997   aggregated   approximately   $192,300   and

                              After  five  years the  Company  has the option to
                              cancel its lease agreement for a cancellation  fee
                              equal to three months of the then monthly rent.

                              In  1997,   a  director   received   approximately
                              $109,000  for  consulting  services in  connection
                              with   the   identification   of   the   facility,
                              negotiation  of the lease and design,  engineering
                              and construction management services.

                           f) In September 1998, in connection  with the signing
                              of   the    consulting    agreement    to   obtain
                              approximately  $3,000,000  in  financing  for  the
                              Company,  a  consultant  to the Company was issued
                              50,000   warrants  to   purchase   shares  of  the
                              Company's  common  stock at $6.00 per  share.  The
                              Company  estimated  the fair value of the warrants
                              at the  grant  date  by  using  the  Black-Scholes
                              option    pricing   model   with   the   following
                              weighted-average  assumptions:  no dividend  yield
                              percent;  expected  volatility  of 0.488 risk free
                              interest rate of 5.03%,  and an estimated  life of
                              10 years.  The fair value of  services  related to
                              1998 of $332,500 was charged to operations  during
                              the period ended December 31, 1998.

                              accounting  for the plan.  Under APB  Opinion  25,
                              because  the  exercise   price  of  the  Company's
                              employee  stock  options  equals  or  exceeds  the
                              market price of the  underlying  stock on the date
                              of grant, no compensation cost is recognized.

                              In August 1996,  the Company  adopted an Incentive
                              Plan (the "Plan")  under which  300,000  shares of
                              common  stock  are  reserved   for issuance   upon
                              exercise   of  stock   based   awards   including,
                              non-qualified   stock  options,   incentive  stock
                              options, stock appreciation rights or for issuance
                              of  restricted  shares  of  common  stock or other
                              stock-based awards. The Plan is also authorized to
                              issue short-term cash incentive  awards.  The Plan
                              is currently  administered by a plan administrator
                              which consists of the Board of Directors,  but may
                              consist  of  such   committees,   officers  and/or
                              employees  of  the  Company  as the  Board  may so
                              designate.  The  purchase  price of each  share of
                              common stock purchased upon exercise of any option
                              granted is as follows:  i) Incentive stock options
                              shall be equal to or greater  than the fair market
                              value of the common  stock on the date of grant as
                              required under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
                              Code,  ii)  Options  granted  to 10%  holders  and
                              designated by the Plan  Administrator as Incentive
                              Stock  Options  shall be equal to or greater  than
                              110% of the fair market  value of the common stock
                              on the date of grant as required under Section 422
                              of the Internal Revenue Code,  (iii)  Non-employee
                              director options shall be equal to or greater than
                              the fair market  value of the common  stock on the
                              date of the grant.

                              Compensation,  requires the Company to provide pro

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

                              note  is  collateralized  with  a  first  security
                              interest to substantially all of the assets of the

                              financing.

                              On April 19, 1999, the Company  borrowed  $100,000
                              from a private investor.  The note is due upon the
                              earlier  of one year or the  closing  of a private
                              placement of securities  with gross  proceeds from
                              the  Company  of  $2  million.  The  note  accrues
                              interest at 12% per year. Accrued interest is paid
                              quarterly, commencing on June 1, 1999. The note is
                              secured by substantially all the Company's assets.
                              The private investor received warrants to purchase
                              25,000 shares of Common Stock  from the Company at
                              $3.50 per share,

                              On May 10, 1999, the Company issued 225,000 shares
                              of Common Stock to a private  investor in exchange
                              for $225,000. The proceeds from this offering were
                              completely  expended by June 30, 1999. The private
                              investor  paid  $1.00 per  share  for the  225,000
                              shares,  or $4.75 per share less than the  closing
                              price of $5.75  per  share on May 10,  1999.

                              On July  16,  1999,  the  Company  issued  400,000
                              shares of Common Stock to two private investors in
                              exchange  for  $400,000.  The  proceeds  from this
                              offering  were  completely  expended  by  October,
                              1999. These private investors paid $1.00 per share
                              for the  400,000  shares,  or $4.75 per share less
                              than the closing  price of $5.75 per share on July
                              16, 1999.

                              On October 4, 1999,  the  Company  entered  into a
                              non-binding   letter  of  intent  to  acquire  DNA
                              Sciences,  Inc.,  a California  corporation  ("DNA
                              Sciences").  If consummated,  the transaction will
                              be structured as a merger of DNA Sciences with and
                              into the Company.  In the merger, the shareholders
                              of DNA  Sciences  will receive  450,000  shares of
                              common stock of the Company.  The  shareholders of
                              DNA  Sciences   will  also  have  the  ability  to
                              nominate  one director to the  Company's  Board of
                              Directors.  The Company expects to consummate this
                              transaction prior to December 31, 1999.

                              On  October  6,  1999,  the  Company  borrowed  an
                              additional  $200,000 from a private investor.  The
                              loan  is  due  on  January  19, 2000  and  has  an
                              annual interest rate of 12% with  accrued interest

                              Company  will issue  warrants to purchase  150,000
                              shares of  common  stock at an  exercise  price of
                              $3.00 per share. In connection with this loan, the
                              Company granted warrants to purchase 20,000 shares
                              common  stock on  October  7, 1999 at an  exercise
                              price  of $3.00  per  share  to a  consultant  for
                              helping the Company  locate the  financing.  These
                              warrants   are   exercisable   immediately.

                              Effective November 15, 1999, the  Company  was  no
                              longer in compliance with the National Association
                              of   Securities   Dealers,  Inc. (NASD(R))  filing
                              requirements.  Accordingly,   the  letter  "E" was
                              appended  to  the  trading  symbol.  Once the NASD
                              receives  notification  that the  Company complies
                              with the filing requirements, the  fifth character
                              "E" will be removed.  The  Company  expects  to be
                              compliant in the near future.

                              On November  19,  1999,  the  Company  borrowed an
                              additional  $200,000 from a private investor.  The
                              loan has an annual  interest rate of 12%,  accrued
                              interest is payable quarterly,  commencing January
                              19, 2000. The loan is secured by substantially all
                              of the Company's assets. In addition,  the Company
                              issued the private  investor  warrants to purchase
                              80,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price
                              of $.01 per share.  These warrants are immediately
                              exercisable. The closing price of the common stock
                              on November 19, 1999 was $6.00.  In  addition,  if
                              $1.5 million is subsequently raised or the loan is
                              paid back,  the  Company  will issue  warrants  to
                              purchase  150,000  shares  of  common  stock at an
                              exercise  price of $3.00 per share.  In connection
                              with this loan,  the Company  granted  warrants to
                              purchase 20,000 shares of common stock on November
                              19, 1999 at an  exercise  price of $3.00 per share
                              to a consultant for helping the Company locate the
                              financing.    These   warrants   are   exercisable
                              immediately.

agreement also provides that upon  termination of employment  without "cause" or
termination  by the  executive  for "good  reason"  (which  includes a change of
control),  the  executive is entitled to receive,  in addition to all accrued or
earned but unpaid  salary,  bonus or benefits,  an amount equal to two times the
compensation  such  executive  would be entitled to receive in the then  current
fiscal year,  including base salary and incentive  bonus  compensation.  For the
purposes of the employment agreement, the amount of incentive bonus compensation
such  executive  would be entitled to receive in the then current fiscal year is
equal to the largest amount  accrued for any of the two most recently  completed
fiscal years.  The agreement  also provides that the executive  will not compete
with the Company during his employment and for one year thereafter.

Effective June 1, 1999,  the Company and Mead M. McCabe,  Sr. entered into a new
employment  agreement pursuant to which Dr. McCabe will serve as the Chairman of
the Board of Directors of the Company.  The  agreement has a three year term and
pays  Dr.  McCabe  a base  salary  of  $132,750,  plus  annual  cost  of  living
adjustments and other increases to be determined by the Board of Directors.  Dr.
McCabe also receives a monthly automobile  allowance of $750.00.  Dr. McCabe was
granted  options to purchase  10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price
of $5.75 per share. These options are immediately exercisable.  In addition, Dr.
McCabe is entitled to an annual bonus in an amount to be determined by the Board
of  Directors.  The Agreement  further  provides that Dr. McCabe will devote his
full working  time and efforts to the  business and affairs of the Company.  The
agreement also provides that upon  termination of employment  without "cause" or
termination  by the  executive  for "good  reason"  (which  includes a change of
control),  the  executive is entitled to receive,  in addition to all accrued or
earned but unpaid  salary,  bonus or benefits,  an amount equal to two times the
compensation  such  executive  would be entitled to receive in the then  current
fiscal year,  including base salary and incentive  bonus  compensation.  For the
purposes of the employment agreement, the amount of incentive bonus compensation
such  executive  would be entitled to receive in the then current fiscal year is
equal to the largest amount  accrued for any of the two most recently  completed
fiscal years.  The agreement  also provides that the executive  will not compete
with the Company during his employment and for one year thereafter.

Incentive Plan

         Overview of the Incentive Plan

         Incentive compensation for non-employee directors, executives and other
key employees of the Company will be provided  under the Genetic  Vectors,  Inc.
1996  Incentive  Plan.  The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to (a) increase the
proprietary and vested interest of non-employee  directors of the Company in the
growth and  performance  of the Company,  (b) assist in attracting and retaining
highly  competent  employees,  (c) provide an incentive for motivating  selected
officers and other key employees of the Company, (d) achieve long-term corporate
objectives and (e) enable cash incentive awards to qualify as  performance-based
for  purposes  of the tax  deduction  limitations  under  Section  162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

                                       56
<PAGE>


         The  Incentive  Plan is  administered  by the Board of Directors of the
Company or such  committees,  officers  and/or  employees  of the Company as the
Board of Directors may so designate.  Eligible participants include non-employee
directors  and such  officers and other key employees of the Company as the plan
administrator  may designate from time to time. The Incentive Plan will continue
in  effect  until  terminated  by its  terms  or,  if  earlier,  by the Board of
Directors.

         The Incentive Plan  authorizes the plan  administrator  to grant any or
all of the following types of awards: (1) stock options, including non-qualified
stock options and incentive stock options,  (2) stock  appreciation  rights, (3)
restricted shares of Common Stock, (4) performance awards, (5) other stock-based
awards, and (6) short-term cash incentive awards.

         Administration

         The Incentive Plan is  administered by a plan  administrator,  which is
currently  the  Compensation  Committee  of the  Board  of  Directors.  The plan
administrator has been granted exclusive and final authority under the Incentive
Plan with  respect  to all  determinations,  interpretations  and other  actions
affecting the Incentive Plan and its participants.

         Shares Subject to the Incentive Plan

         Three hundred  thousand shares of the Company's  Common Stock have been
initially  authorized to be issued under the  Incentive  Plan.  Such  authorized
shares will be  appropriately  adjusted to reflect  adjustments  (if any) to the
Company's capital structure.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors


         Pursuant to authority  conferred by Florida law, the Company's  By-laws
provide that the Company's directors,  officers, and employees be indemnified to
the fullest  extent  permitted by Florida law.  Insofar as  indemnification  for
liabilities  arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for directors and
officers and  controlling  persons  pursuant to the  foregoing  provisions,  the
Company has been  advised  that in the opinion of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  such  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

     Stock outstanding as of November 22, 1999 together with applicable  options
     for each shareholder. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with

     power with respect to securities. Shares of Common Stock subject to options
     that are currently  exercisable or  exercisable  within 60 days of November
     22, 1999 are deemed to be  beneficially  owned by the person  holding  such
     options for the purpose of computing  the  percentage  of ownership of such
     person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the
     percentage  ownership  of any other  person.  The Common  Stock is the only
     outstanding class of equity securities of the Company.

ITEM 12.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT FOR REAL ESTATE CONSULTING SERVICES

         The Company paid approximately  $109,000 to Mark E. Burroughs, a member
of the Board of Directors,  in 1997. This payment was made to Mr.  Burroughs for
his  services  in  connection  with  the  identification  of a  facility,  lease
negotiations and design,  engineering and construction  management  services for
the Company's new facility.

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

         On June 19, 1996 the Company  entered into a consulting  agreement with
Mr. James A. Joyce,  who became a director of the Company on August 13, 1996. He
was granted options to purchase a total of 75,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at an  exercise  price of $5.00  per  share,  all of which  are  currently
exercisable.  These  options were not issued  through the Incentive  Plan.  This
agreement terminated in December 1996. Mr. Joyce continued to provide consulting


                                       59
<PAGE>


services  through June 1997. Mr. Joyce's  option  exercise  rights will continue
until the fourth anniversary of the execution of such consulting agreement.

ROLE OF MEAD M. MCCABE, SR.

         Dr.  McCabe has been  involved in the  Company's  operations  since its
inception but he did not serve as a traditional  "promoter" of the Company. As a
scientist,  his role  since the  Company's  inception  has been  focused  on the
technical aspects of the Technology rather than the traditional  promoter's role
of attempting  to build the Company and promote its success.  Dr. McCabe was the
developer of the nucleic acid  labeling and  detection  Technology  which is the
basis for the  Company's  products.  He was the sole  owner of ProVec,  Inc.,  a
company which was the original licensee of the Technology and which subsequently
assigned  its license  rights to the  Company.  Though the Company was formed in
1991, he did not receive any shares of its Common Stock until 1996. At that time
he received 20% of the Company's  Common Stock in exchange for all of the shares
of the Class B Preferred  Stock of Nyer  Medical  owned by him and his wife.  In
1996,  he received an  additional  11,322 shares of Common Stock in exchange for
the conversion of certain  indebtedness owed to him by the Company in connection
with accrued payroll and expenses.

OBLIGATIONS UNDER INVESTORS FINDERS AGREEMENT

         In June 1994,  the Company and Nyer  Medical  entered into an Investors
Finders  Agreement with an investment firm pursuant to which the investment firm
assisted the Company in obtaining approximately $135,000 in funding through Nyer
Medical. The Agreement requires the Company to pay the investment firm 5% of its
gross sales revenues until five years from the date of the Agreement have passed
or the cumulative payments total $50,000,  whichever comes first. This agreement
has been assigned to Shamrock  Partners  International  Inc., a firm  affiliated
with the underwriter who managed the Offering.

TRANSACTIONS WITH OFFICERS AND SHAREHOLDERS

         The  Company  believes  that all  transactions  entered  into  with its
officers and  shareholders  have been  effected on terms and  conditions no less
favorable to the Company than those available from  unaffiliated  third parties.
The  Company  anticipates  that any  future  transactions  with such  affiliated
parties will be made on terms and  conditions  no less  favorable to the Company
than those available from unaffiliated third parties.
