ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

GENERAL

Med/Waste, Inc. (the "Company") is a holding company which, through its
subsidiaries, is engaged in two businesses: medical waste management and
commercial cleaning services. The medical waste management operations are
conducted through Safety Disposal System, Inc. ("SDS") and Safety Disposal
System of South Carolina, Inc. ("SDSSC"). The commercial cleaning services
operations are conducted through The Kover Group, Inc. ("Kover").

The Company was incorporated in November 1991 under the laws of the
State of Delaware. In March 1992, the Company purchased 100% of the capital
stock of SDS. In June 1994, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of
Kover. In October 1996, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary SDSSC,
purchased certain incineration related assets of Chambers Medical Technologies
of South Carolina, Inc., a South Carolina corporation ("Chambers").

SDS provides collection, transportation, treating, tracking and related
services for the disposal of both medical and special waste throughout Florida
(sometimes collectively referred to as "Waste"). SDS also sells or leases
turnkey autoclave treatment units for large quantity generators. Medical waste
is generally any waste which may cause an infectious disease or can reasonably
be suspected of harboring pathogenic organisms. Medical waste includes
predominantly all material that comes in contact with human and animal body
fluids. Special waste is generally all non-residential waste which requires more
stringent management than municipal solid waste, but does not include medical or
hazardous waste.

Kover is engaged in the business of offering, selling and servicing
franchises for commercial building cleaning services through the trade name
"Coverall Cleaning Concepts". Kover is a service franchisor of Coverall North
America, Inc. ("CNA") in the metropolitan areas of Cleveland, Ohio and South
Florida. In April 1996, the Company assigned Kover's Pittsburgh master franchise
and sold certain notes receivables from franchises, accounts receivable,
inventory, and operating and office equipment related to Kover's Pittsburgh
franchise to a third party.

MEDICAL WASTE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

According to information released in 1997 by the Environmental Working
Group, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the United States
generates over two million tons of Medical Waste per year. Florida produces over
100,000 tons per year. Approximately 59% of Florida's medical waste is
incinerated and the remaining medical waste is either steam-sterilized or
trucked out of state. It has been estimated that the current market for medical
waste disposal services in the United States is approximately $1.25 billion per
year.

Nationally, most medical waste is disposed of by incineration. However,
more stringent government regulation and a generally negative public attitude
toward nearby incineration facilities

- 2 -

10KSB 3rd Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 3rd

have resulted in a declining number of incineration disposal facilities.
Relatively few newly permitted incineration facilities have opened due to the
significant cost of compliance with new environmental legislation. The Company's
incinerator is in full compliance with all federal and state regulations dealing
with air pollution controls.

MEDICAL WASTE OPERATIONS

GENERAL. The Company's medical waste operations are conducted through
SDS and SDSSC (sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Waste
Companies").

Generators of medical waste are generally liable under applicable
regulations for the collection, packaging, transportation, tracking,
documentation and disposal of such waste, as well as training of employees in
the handling of such waste. As new regulations are written, the complexity of
administering a medical waste management system increases. As a result, SDS
expects more health care providers will engage specialists to ensure their
compliance. Further, most small medical waste generators cannot afford the cost
of individualized compliance. The Company believes SDS's approach to management
of medical waste, including the use of on-site equipment, specialized
containers, on-site training, a specially designed tracking system, timely
customer service, radio dispatched trucks and low cost disposal methods provide
customers with a cost effective solution for compliance.

SDS collects medical waste from medical waste generators, including
hospitals, clinics, medical and dental offices, veterinarians, laboratories,
funeral homes, home health agencies and others. In addition to medical waste
collection, SDS provides programs to assist customers to promote safe handling
of medical waste and comply with federal and state requirements applicable to
their operations.

In October 1996, SDSSC purchased an incineration facility in South
Carolina, which is permitted to treat municipal, medical and special waste. The
Company receives waste from generators throughout the eastern United States.
SDSSC primarily focuses on the treatment of medical waste and to a lesser degree
special waste. Special waste is generally all non-residential waste which
requires more stringent management than municipal solid waste, but does not
include medical or hazardous waste.

The Company believes that to remain competitive in the medical waste
industry it is critical to provide customers with a total program for their
medical waste compliance problems. In addition to disposal, the Waste Companies
also provide a variety of waste management services, including training of
customer employees on the handling of medical waste, educating generators on the
latest regulations, providing containers for disposal and documentation and
tracking medical waste from pick-up to ultimate disposal. The Waste Companies'
operations accounted for 28% and 19% of the Company's revenues for 1996 and
1995, respectively.

COLLECTION. SDS contracts with medical and special waste generators to
collect their waste on a regular schedule pursuant to a negotiated fee
structure. Schedules for pickup can vary from several times per week to once a
month, depending on the volume of waste produced by a customer. For SDS
customers, each waste generator is responsible for packing its waste in
containers usually provided to them by SDS, then placing the containers at a
designated collection area on the generator's premises. SDS sends its truck
driven by a Company driver to pick up the waste. If a waste generator is
sufficiently large, SDS places a large temporary storage container at the
premises, which SDS picks up for ultimate disposal at a waste treatment
facility. In the case of medical waste customers, SDS delivers the medical waste
to to a third-party incinerator facility

- 3 -

10KSB 4th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 4th

or sterilizes, shreds and compacts the medical waste at its own autoclave
medical waste treatment facility in West Palm Beach, Florida ("the Commercial
Autoclave"), before it is transported for disposal in a local sanitary landfill.
For special waste customers, SDS delivers the special waste to SDSSC's
incinerator facility in South Carolina (the "Incinerator") or to a third-party
incinerator for disposal. See "Disposal of Medical Waste" below.

SDS typically supplies containers to its customers for use in the
disposal of infectious medical waste. These containers contain the universal
biohazard symbol to draw attention to their contents. The containers used are
either cardboard or a rigid plastic depending on the intended contents. The
plastic containers are used for hypodermic needles, scalpels and other so-called
"sharps." Smaller plastic containers are packed in the cardboard containers with
other medical waste for ease of transport. SDS does not accept waste unless it
is properly packaged by customers in SDS supplied or approved containers.

The majority of SDSSC's waste stream is transported to the Incinerator
through arrangements made directly by its customers with third-party hauling
companies.

ON-SITE TREATMENT OF MEDICAL WASTE. SDS supplies, installs and oversees
the operations of on-site autoclaves at large quantity generators, typically
hospitals. The autoclaves treat the medical waste through sterilization,
allowing most of such waste to be handled and disposed of as special waste. It
is estimated that the autoclaves will reduce each hospital's medical waste by
approximately 90%, thus significantly reducing the expense of disposal both due
to decreased volume and the significant cost savings of disposing of special,
versus medical waste. Hospitals either purchase or lease the autoclave and
related equipment. During the term of the lease, or following the purchase of a
unit, the Company provides maintenance and support of the autoclave on-site and
collects the treated waste and transports it for ultimate disposal at a local
landfill.

DOCUMENTATION. The Waste Companies provide complete documentation to
its customers for all waste it collects. Such documentation includes information
related to point of origin, date of pick-up and date of delivery to a treatment
facility. The documentation system developed by the Waste Companies meets all
applicable local, state and federal regulations regarding packaging, labeling
and proof of disposal of waste materials.

TRANSFER STATIONS. SDS currently operates three transfer stations; one
each in Dade, Palm Beach and Hillsborough Counties, Florida. Each transfer
station is licensed as appropriate, by state, county and city governmental
authorities. The transfer stations are used as temporary storage facilities to
maximize efficiency in the transport of medical waste. In most instances, waste
containers picked up from generators are stored at a transfer station until a
full truck load can be brought to the Commercial Autoclave, the Incinerator or
to a third-party incinerator, thus saving time and cost. SDSSC does not
currently operate any transfer stations.

SAFETY TRAINING. Health care personnel have become increasingly
sensitive to the risk of contracting diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis through
accidental contact with infected patient blood. In addition, patients are
increasingly demanding that practitioners demonstrate continual vigilance
against such risks. Occupational Safety and Health Act ("OSHA") regulations
require annual training of all personnel who potentially can come in contact
with blood borne pathogens. The OSHA regulations also require documentation of
procedures, clean-up plans and training of such personnel. As a result, there
has been heightened attention by medical providers of the need to implement
safeguards against such risks. SDS has developed programs to train employees of
customers in the proper methods of handling, segregating and containerizing
medical waste to

- 4 -

10KSB 5th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 5th

reduce potential exposure to employees. SDS instructs health care workers in the
proper methods of handling, recording and documenting their medical waste
streams to comply with local, state and federal regulations. SDS also offers to
develop an internal system for such customers to provide for the efficient
management of medical waste within the customer's facility in an effort to
reduce the customer's overall disposal costs. SDS offers consulting and review
services to medical waste generators regarding their internal medical waste
collection and control systems and to assist such generators in developing a
system to provide for the efficient management of the medical waste through the
point of pickup by SDS. Safety training and related services are not presently a
significant portion of SDS's revenues.

DISPOSAL OF WASTE. The two most common methods of treating infectious
waste are incineration and steam sterilization, i.e., autoclaving. Alternate
methods include chemical disinfection, microwave and numerous other specialized
and experimental techniques. Incineration burns the medical waste at high
temperatures and reduces the waste to ash and metal. Incineration has the
advantage of significantly reducing the volume of waste. However, incineration
has come under increasing scrutiny by environmentalists and state and local
regulators due to emissions generated by incineration. Emissions contain
pollutants such as carbon monoxide, mercury, cadmium, lead and other toxins. As
a result, the cost of developing incineration facilities or to upgrade existing
facilities to meet regulatory standards is significant.

SDSSC disposes of all of the waste that it receives from third parties
by incineration. The Incinerator is in full compliance with all federal and
state regulations dealing with air pollution controls. The incinerator is a
waste to energy facility with a rated capacity for processing up to 270 tons per
day of special, medical and municipal waste. The facility is currently permitted
under South Carolina law to incinerate up to 200 tons per day of waste, both
liquid and solid, including 1,500 tons of medical waste per month. The
Incinerator is equipped with three (3) Consumat modular, multi-chamber, solid
hearth, controlled-air incinerators. Each incinerator has a design capacity of
90 tons per day for waste materials. The primary chamber of each incinerator
operates at 1,400 to 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit, with the secondary and tertiary
chambers operating at 1,800 to 2,400 degrees Fahrenheit. The secondary and
tertiary chambers have auxiliary gas fired burners designed to maintain 1,800
degrees Fahrenheit temperature and at least two seconds residence time for flue
gas. Ash residue from the incineration process is screened at the Incinerator to
remove recyclable materials and is then transported for disposal in a local
sanitary landfill.

Although steam sterilization is an approved method of treating medical
waste, steam sterilization alone does not change the appearance of the waste. If
the treatment process does not change the physical appearance of infectious
waste, such waste may not be accepted by landfill operators. Therefore, steam
sterilization must be combined with a process such as shredding or grating which
renders the waste stream non-recognizable.

SDS disposes of a substantial majority of the medical waste and all of
the special waste received from customers by incineration at the Incinerator and
certain third-party incineration facilities in Florida. SDS has non-exclusive
contracts to utilize the third-party disposal facilities for contracted prices
per pound of medical waste it pays to the facilities. Since April 1994, SDS has
treated a portion of the medical waste it collects at the Commercial Autoclave
facility in West Palm Beach. The autoclave steam sterilizes medical waste, under
pressure at a temperature of 281 degrees Fahrenheit, then feeds the sterilized
waste through a shredder. The shredder grates the product and ultimately the
waste is compacted. The resulting waste is decreased in volume by 80% and hauled
to a landfill. The Commercial Autoclave has the capacity to dispose of over six
tons per day of infectious medical waste.

10KSB 6th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 6th

In addition to generating revenue from the processing of waste
materials, the Incinerator currently sells process steam to an adjacent
industrial plant. The Incinerator has been designated as a Qualified Facility
("QF") by the United Stated Department of Energy for purposes of producing and
selling electricity under the Public Utility Regulatory Power Act ("PURPA").
PURPA requires public utilities to purchase electricity at the avoided cost of
generation from those facilities that carry a QF designation. The Incinerator
would need minor retrofitting of its boiler and installation of a turbine
generator to allow for the production and sale of electricity.

The Waste Companies believe existing and pending federal, state and
local regulations regarding air quality and the effects on air quality of
medical waste disposal by incineration will enhance the Waste Companies' market
position because the Incinerator is in full compliance with all federal and
state regulations dealing with air pollution controls and the Commercial
Autoclave does not cause measurable air pollutants and will be more acceptable
to local residents.

MEDICAL WASTE MARKET. The Waste Companies comprise the second largest
medical waste disposal company in the state of Florida and the fourth largest
public medical waste disposal company based in the United States. As of February
28, 1997, the Waste Companies service more than 5,200 health care facilities
consisting of small, medium and large quantity generators. A small quantity
generator typically produces approximately 10 to 50 pounds of medical waste in a
month. Medium quantity generators, such as clinics, dialysis centers,
laboratories, produce substantially more poundage per month. Large quantity
generators, such as hospitals, can produce as much as 70,000 pounds per month,
depending on the size and types of services provided by such hospital.

Delivery of health care services within the United States is shifting
from hospitals to home care and alternate site facilities. Home care and
delivery of care in other non-acute facilities are among the fastest growing
segments of the health care industry. Cost containment pressures and new
treatment protocols will continue to move patients, including patients being
treated for infectious diseases, into non-hospital settings. As patients move
into these settings, infectious medical waste that would otherwise be handled by
hospitals must be disposed of through alternate methods. These generators
include physicians, dentists, out-patient clinics, dialysis clinics,
laboratories, home health agencies, and other organizations involved in the
medical profession. For most of these generators, it would be unrealistic to
treat and dispose of their medical waste by themselves. By contracting with SDS,
these generators can pay a small monthly fee and let SDS handle and dispose of
their medical waste.

MEDICAL WASTE MARKETING. SDS's marketing strategies and activities
focus principally on metropolitan areas because they represent the greatest
concentration of medical waste generators. This emphasis results in higher
revenue potential and reduced transportation costs per pick-up. SDS believes
that its full service capability using alternative technologies to solve all of
its customers' medical waste disposal needs enhances its ability to market its
services to customers. This approach is supported by SDS's emphasis on sharing
cost savings with its customers, responsiveness to customer needs, competitive
pricing and superior service with radio-dispatched trucks.

SDSSC competes in the marketplace on the basis of quality service and
reasonable pricing. Emphasis is now being placed on the development of special
waste streams, as well as, increased medical waste customers. SDSSC has recently
expanded its sales force and is aggressively penetrating the non-hazardous
industrial/residual waste and pharmaceutical waste markets.

Disposal agreements are negotiated individually with each customer.
Although the Waste Companies have standard forms of agreement, terms vary
depending on the number of containers, frequency of pick up and volume of and
type of Waste. Disposal agreements typically include provisions relating to
types of containers, frequency of collection, pricing, disposal and
documentation for tracking purposes. Each agreement also specifies the
customers' specific obligation for packaging in proper containers before the
Waste Companies will accept the Waste. Most disposal agreements for small and
medium quantity generators are for a period of one to three years, with
automatic annual renewals, although customers may terminate on written notice
upon payment of a penalty. Most hospital contracts are for one to three years to
five years, with automatic renewal options and, with the exception of autoclave
sterilizer sales, a sixty (60) day right to cancellation, without penalty.

COMMERCIAL CLEANING FRANCHISE OPERATIONS

As of 1996, the annual sales related to commercial cleaning services in
the United States amounted to approximately $38 billion. There are over 45,000
and 65,000 locations within the Cleveland and South Florida markets,
respectively, which require building cleaning services. It is estimated that the
market for commercial cleaning services increases approximately 5% per year.
Kover's franchisees currently service approximately 1,300 accounts in the two
regions.

Kover is a master franchisee of CNA. CNA operates a business engaged in
the offer and sale of three types of franchises, each of which is related to
commercial building cleaning services using the trade name "Coverall". Kover is
a master franchisee of CNA in the metropolitan areas of Cleveland and South
Florida. Kover has the exclusive right to sell janitorial franchises using the
Coverall Cleaning Concept in these metropolitan areas. Kover is required to pay
CNA royalty fees of three to four and one-half percent of monthly revenues.
Kover uses the Coverall name, design and business plan to conduct and promote
its independent business of offering, selling and servicing janitorial
franchises. Most cleaning services are provided to commercial customers through
independent franchisees. Kover maintains a small staff to perform emergency
cleaning services and temporary cleaning services for accounts being transferred
from one franchisee to another.

Kover's revenues represented 72% and 81% of the Company's revenues for
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. In December 1995, the
Company decided to change its focus, efforts and resources from the janitorial
franchise segment to the medical waste management segment. In April 1996, the
Company assigned Kover's Pittsburgh master franchise and sold certain notes
receivables from franchises, accounts receivable, inventory, and operating and
office equipment related to Kover's Pittsburgh franchise to a third party.

FRANCHISE SALES. Kover sells franchises for janitorial services in the
metropolitan territories of South Florida and Cleveland. As of December 31,
1996, Kover had in operation approximately 250 janitorial franchises with
approximately 1,300 cleaning contracts. As of that date, CNA and its other
service franchisees had an approximately additional 900 janitorial franchises in
operation located in 15 states, as well as in Canada, United Kingdom, South
Africa, Spain and Thailand. Kover's annual average sales of janitorial
franchises has been approximately 40 for the past three years.

Franchisees typically are individuals or families who desire to operate
their own business with low capital requirements. In many instances, the
Coverall franchise will be in addition to such person's regular employment.
Franchisees purchase franchises of varying amounts based upon the sizes of the
underlying cleaning contracts. Cleaning contracts vary from as little as $100 to
as

- 7 -

10KSB 8th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 8th

great as $9,890 in monthly revenues. Franchisees generally are assigned multiple
cleaning contracts pursuant to their franchise agreements. Initial franchise
fees paid to Kover are based upon the anticipated monthly gross billings of the
cleaning contracts. Initial franchise fees paid by franchisees range from $3,250
to $33,600 for any individual franchise. The franchise fee may be paid in cash
or financed over a twenty-four month period. Principal and interest is payable
monthly, with interest accruing on the outstanding balance of the franchise fee
at 12% per annum. In addition to the initial franchise fee, Kover receives
on-going royalty fees of three to five percent of each franchisee's monthly
billings and a management fee of seven percent to ten percent of monthly
billings. Kover may also receive sales and marketing fees or special services
finders fees on certain non-recurring contracts.

Upon the purchase of a franchise by a franchisee, Kover obtains
cleaning contracts for assignment to the franchisee equivalent to the size of
the franchise purchased. These customers may include medical office buildings,
professional offices, banks, restaurants, corporate offices or any other
commercial customers in need of regular cleaning. Each cleaning customer
contracts with Kover for its cleaning needs. Such agreement clearly indicates
that Kover will arrange for an independent contractor (its "franchisee") to
provide the actual services under the Coverall Concept. However, Kover maintains
ownership and control of the cleaning contract. Kover typically has 120 days
from the completion of initial training to supply the cleaning account for a
franchisee who requires $3,000 or less in approximate monthly cleaning revenue.
For franchises of more than $3,000 in monthly billings, Kover is required to
provide the appropriate cleaning contracts within 120 days after completion of
training and an additional thirty (30) days for each $1,000 per month of gross
monthly revenues in excess of $3,000.

Kover is required to provide a franchisee with cleaning contracts worth
the minimum amount of initial monthly cleaning revenue for which the franchisee
has contracted. This guarantee is only for the first twelve (12) months
commencing with the start of the initial cleaning contract. If the cleaning
contract is terminated within the first twelve (12) months (other than due to
the franchisee's inability to perform), Kover is obligated to replace the
contract with a different contract. If a franchisee is terminated, the cleaning
contract is reassigned to a new or existing franchisee.

In connection with the sale of a franchise, Kover provides the
franchisee with an initial equipment and supply package, the cost of which is
included in the initial franchise fee. These items include various cleaning
equipment and cleaners, disinfectants and other items used by franchisees in the
performance of its services. Heavy duty items such as floor polishers, carpet
cleaning and other power equipment may be purchased or leased separately, either
from Kover or an independent supplier. After the initial supplies are exhausted,
the franchisee may purchase additional supplies from Kover or another supplier.
Franchisees are required to obtain and pay for their own insurance, including
comprehensive liability, a janitorial bond, workers compensation and
unemployment and automobile liability insurance. Kover has an arrangement with a
major insurance company to provide the comprehensive liability insurance and
janitorial bonds, which may be utilized at the option of the franchisee. Kover
is a named insured on all such insurance policies of the franchisees.

COMMERCIAL CLEANING SERVICES. A franchisee assigned to a cleaning
contract provides all janitorial services under the "Coverall" trade name. Each
franchisee operates as an independent contractor. All franchisee personnel wear
approved uniforms which may be purchased from Kover or from an independent
supplier, at the option of the franchisee. Franchisees are not obligated to
purchase or lease from Kover or its designees, any goods, services, supplies,
equipment or inventory related to the establishment or operation of the
franchise business. However, Kover attempts to use its larger bargaining power
to negotiate discounted

- 8 -

10KSB 9th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 9th

rates with certain chemical supply companies. Kover provides the names of all
suppliers directly to its franchisees, who are free to purchase the chemicals,
supplies or equipment from that or any other approved supplier.

QUALITY CONTROL. Quality control is an important part of the Coverall
franchise system. Kover believes that the concept of an "owner with a vested
interest", i.e., a franchise owner, insures high quality of work. Therefore,
Kover strongly recommends that the franchisee owner participate in the operation
and management of the franchise business. In order to maintain high standards,
Kover requires the use of chemicals, supplies, equipment and products which have
been approved by CNA. CNA has tested and approved chemicals, equipment and
products which are sold under various brand names. These items are recommended
to franchisees at their initial training sessions and periodically thereafter.
An unapproved chemical or other item must be tested by CNA for cleaning
efficiency, safety, ease of application, durability and economy before it can be
used by a franchisee. Notwithstanding, if a customer specifies the use of
certain products or equipment in connection with cleaning a particular surface
or item, the franchisee will use such product.

FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS. Upon the sale of a franchise, each franchisee
undergoes an initial practical training program prior to the commencement of
actually servicing a cleaning contract. Initial training consists of on-site
instruction of the methods and procedures involved in the commercial cleaning
business at an existing cleaning customer. The franchisee also is given the
license to use the "Coverall" name and service mark, which is owned by CNA and
licensed to Kover, among others. The initial training program lasts between 20
to 40 hours and typically commences within ten (10) days of execution of the
franchise agreement. Attending the initial training session is mandatory for
each franchisee, who must complete training to the satisfaction of Kover.

During the term of the franchise agreement, Kover provides billing and
collection services for the cleaning contracts. Kover collects all monthly
billing amounts from the cleaning customers which are paid over to the
franchisee after deduction of Kover's royalty fee, the management fee and the
monthly payment of the financed portion of the initial franchise fee, as well as
any applicable sales and marketing, advertising and transfer fees, equipment
lease payments or other advances. Kover also provides additional on-going
training and the introduction of new methods and materials through personal
consultation and/or group seminars. Kover provides to the franchisee, at the
franchisee's cost, promotional or sales materials necessary for use in
developing the franchisee's business.

TRADEMARKS. Kover utilizes the trade name and service mark "Coverall"
pursuant to an agreement with CNA. The "Coverall" trade name is not registered
with the United States Patent and Trademark Office but is registered in each of
the states in which Kover operates. Kover has the right to the use of the trade
name and service mark in the sale and operation of its janitorial franchise sale
operations. Kover grants to each franchisee a license to use and display
"Coverall" as trade names, service marks, and logos on all labels and designs
pertaining to the franchise. The franchisee may only use the mark in connection
with his franchise arrangement in accordance with specific restrictions.

The Waste Companies utilize the trade name and service mark
"EnviroSafe" in the marketing of autoclave equipment. The trade name
"EnviroSafe" is registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

MATERIAL ACQUISITIONS

In June 1994, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of Kover.
At the time of the acquisition, Kover was wholly-owned by Phillip W. Kubec
("Kubec") its president and chief executive officer. Mr. Kubec continues to
serve as president and chief executive officer of Kover.

On June 30, 1995, Kover purchased certain customer lists, equipment,
supplies and fixtures from Broward Floor Care and Supply, Inc. ("Broward
IFloor"), a South Florida janitorial company. The servicing of the Broward Floor
accounts has been integrated with Kover's regular franchise commercial cleaning
services operations.

In October 1996, SDSSC purchased an incineration facility in South
Carolina which is permitted to treat municipal, medical and special waste which
the Company receives from generators throughout the eastern United States. SDSSC
primarily focuses on the treatment of medical waste and to a lesser degree
special waste.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The Waste Companies' medical waste operations are heavily regulated and
governed by numerous federal, state, and local statutes, regulations, rules and
ordinances. These laws govern the definition, generation, segregation, handling,
packaging, transporting, and disposal of medical waste, as well as occupational
training and safety regulations. Kover's janitorial service operations are not
regulated by either federal, state or local laws, except for the requirement to
comply with the rules and regulations of the Federal Trade Commission regarding
the sale of franchises.

FEDERAL REGULATIONS. The Occupational Safety and Health Act ("OSHA")
gives the federal government the authority to regulate the management of
infectious medical waste. OSHA regulations attempt to limit occupational
eIxposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials, but do not
actually cover the disposal of medical waste.

These regulations target all industries in which employees could
reasonably be expected to come in contact with blood borne pathogens. The
reIgulations define infectious materials to include semen, vaginal secretions,
cerebrospinal fluids, synovial fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid,
peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, saliva in dental procedures, any body fluid
visibly contaminated with blood and all body fluids in situations where it is
difficult to differentiate among body fluids. The definition also includes any
unfixed tissue or organ, other than intact skin from a human (dead or alive),
human immune-deficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B virus. The regulations
require employers to identify in writing tasks and procedures, as well as job
classifications, where occupational exposure to blood may occur. Employers must
set forth a schedule for implementing procedures for employees to minimize risk
of contamination. Employers are required to offer such employees vaccinations
for hepatitis B virus and must keep records concerning such employees' medical
histories.

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 ("RCRA")
established a regulatory program administered by the EPA for the generation,
stoIrage, transportation and disposal of hazardous waste. The general statutory
definition of hazardous waste would provide the EPA with the authority to
regulate infectious medical wastes as hazardous wastes. However, to date, the
EPA has not designated infectious medical waste as a hazardous waste and it is
not presently regulated as such. The EPA has developed and issued informal
guidelines outlining practical approaches to infectious waste management.

10KSB 11th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 11th

The interstate transport of medical waste is subject to regulation by
the United States Department of Transportation ("DOT") pursuant to the Hazardous
Material Transportation Act ("HMTA") and pertinent regulations. Pursuant to the
HMTA, the transport of medical waste will, depending on its composition, be
subject to packaging, labeling, notice and reporting requirements, as well as
requirements pertaining to transporter registration, transportation procedures
and the preparation of shipping papers. Strict penalties may be assessed for
violations of the HMTA and its regulations. The HMTA does not cover the
operation of an autoclave.

FLORIDA LEGISLATION. The Florida Department of Health and
Rehabilitative Services ("HRS") has authority over the generation, storage,
treatment and transfer of medical waste. The Florida Department of Environmental
Protection ("DEP") has authority over off-site transportation, on-site
incineration and final disposal facilities. The DER has specific authority over
the operation of alternate medical waste treatment facilities, such as the
Commercial Autoclave.

Florida defines bio-hazardous waste as any solid or liquid waste which
may present a threat of infection to humans. The term includes, but is not
limited to, non-liquid human tissue and body parts, laboratory and veterinary
waste which contains human disease-causing agents, discarded sharps (devices
with physical characteristics capable of puncturing, lacerating, or otherwise
penetrating the skin, such as needles, broken glass or broken hard plastic),
human blood, human blood products and body fluids.

Each generator of bio-hazardous waste is required to prepare, maintain
and implement a written plan to identify and handle all such waste within its
facility, as well as provide employee training programs. Such plan must outline
the procedures for on-site segregation, handling, labeling, storage and
treatment of waste generated by the facility. All bio-hazardous waste management
records, including any documentation provided by the transporter, must be
maintained for three years and made available for inspection by HRS upon
request.

All on-site storage of bio-hazardous waste must be in a designated area
away from the general traffic flow pattern and be accessible only to authorized
personnel. No bio-hazardous waste generator may store such waste on-site for any
period in excess of thirty days. All containers used for storage must be labeled
with the name, address and phone number of the generator if it is to be
transported to a disposal site. Violations of the regulations may be prosecuted
as criminal offenses. In addition, the State of Florida may impose monetary
penalties of up to $2,500 per day for each violation. Dade and Broward Counties,
Florida also regulate the transportation and storage of medical waste.

The Commercial Autoclave is regulated by the DEP. The DEP issues
permits for facilities to treat bio-hazardous waste. Bio-hazardous waste must be
treated within thirty (30) days of collection from a generator. The DEP permits
treatment by the Commercial Autoclave, subject to specific operating and log
keeping requirements. Bio-hazardous waste treated through autoclaving methods in
accordance with the regulations may be disposed of at a landfill in the same
manner as solid waste.

SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATION. The South Carolina Department of Health and
Environmental Control ("DHEC") has authority over the generation, storage,
treatment and transfer of medical waste. DHEC requires the profiling of special
waste and daily spot inspections of manifests, incoming vehicles and plant
operations.

State legislation presently restricts the Incinerator's capacity for
medical waste to the greater of (i) 50 tons per day or (ii) on a monthly basis,
1/12 of the estimated amount of medical

- 11 -

10KSB 12th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 12th

waste generated within the State of South Carolina within one year. The Company
is continuing a constitutional challenge against DHEC, originally commenced by
the prior owner of the Incinerator in 1991 in the U.S. District Court of South
Carolina, of the state's imposition of the limitation, as well as certain
provisions of the South Carolina Infectious Waste Management Act and the
regulations promulgated thereunder. At the trial level, the Company's prior
owner was successful in its challenge to certain fee requirements under the
regulations. However, it was not successful in having the volume limitation
ruled unconstitutional. The Company filed a motion for a stay, pending appeal in
the U.S. Circuit Court, of the implementation of the volume limitations, which
stay was originally granted. However, the U.S. District Court later lifted the
stay and on October 1, 1996 the 50 ton medical waste limitation went into
effect. Notwithstanding, the Company is pursuing the appeal of the volume
limitation. The Company does not believe that the volume limitation will have a
material adverse impact on its operations, since the Company anticipates the
medical waste limitation to be offset by increases in special waste
incineration.

COMPETITION

The Waste Companies comprise the second largest medical waste
management provider in the State of Florida and the fourth largest public
medical waste management company based in the United States. The Company faces
intensive competition in its market from national, regional and local
competitors. Several other competitors, while not national, have significant
regional recognition and market share. Other competitors are local in origin.
Such national public competitors are Browning-Ferris Industries, Inc., WMX
Technologies, Inc., and USA Waste Services, Inc. The Waste Companies also
compete against alternative waste disposal technologies and against generators
who have their own incineration or other treatment facilities, such as some
hospitals. The Waste Companies will likely encounter intense competition from
national, regional and local companies in each market into which they may
expand.

The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the
medical waste industry are price, reliability and reputation, timely service,
ability to offer alternative technologies and to help customers work within an
increasingly regulated environment. The Company believes it is able to compete
effectively because of its ability to deliver timely, reliable, environmentally
sound services at a reasonable price. The Company believes that sales of its
on-site treatment equipment will allow it to more quickly penetrate new
geographic markets, as well as provide significant reduction of expenses for
large quantity generators.

Kover faces competition in each of its regions from one national and
many local competitors. Kover's national competitor, Jani-King, has a presence
in both of Kover's locations. Most other competitors are local in origin. These
local competitors are small operations with limited capital. Kover believes it
is able to compete based upon reliability, reputation, professionalism and
access to capital necessary to finance the receivables associated with cleaning
contracts.

POTENTIAL LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

The medical waste disposal industry involves potentially significant
risks of statutory, contractual, tort and common law liability. Potential
liability could involve, for example, claims for clean-up costs, personal
injury, or damage to the environment, claims of employees, customers or third
parties for personal injury or property damage occurring in the course of the
Company's operations, or claims alleging negligence or professional errors or
omissions in the planning or performance of work. The Company could also be
subject to fines in connection with violations of

- 12 -

10KSB 13th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 13th

regulatory requirements. The Company attempts to operate safely and prudently
and has not haany material violations to date of which it is aware.

The Company carries liability insurance coverage which it considers
sufficient to meet regulatory and customer requirements and to protect the
Company's employees, assets, and operations. The availability of liability
insurance within the waste industry has been adversely affected by the
constrained market for casualty and environmental insurance. In the future,
insurance that might be available may be at significantly increased premiums
with less extensive coverage. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate
insurance coverage at a reasonable cost, it may become exposed to potential
liability claims. In such event, a successful claim, if of sufficient magnitude,
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

Kover requires each franchisee to maintain comprehensive liability
insurance to protect the Company and its franchisees from any claims arising out
of the operation of the franchisee's business. Each franchisee is also required
to be bonded.

SUPPLIES

The Waste Companies purchase their medical waste equipment and
supplies, including containers, from many sources. Kover's franchisees purchase
cleaning equipment, chemicals and supplies from a variety of sources, all of
which are approved by CNA. Neither the Waste Companies, Kover nor any of its
franchises has experienced any difficulty in obtaining equipment or supplies and
alternative sources are readily available.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 1996, the Company had approximately 133 full time
employees, including corporate officers, sales and customer service personnel
and office and clerical employees. Of such employees, 83 were employees of the
Waste Companies and 50 of Kover. None of the Company's employees is represented
by a labor organization. Management considers its relationship with its
employees to be satisfactory.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

PROPERTIES

The Company maintains its principal offices in Opa Locka, Florida where
the Company rents approximately 5,000 square feet. The location is used for
executive offices, billing and storage of equipment containers and vehicles. The
Company also operates three Florida transfer stations, one each in Dade County,
Hillsborough County and Palm Beach County. The Dade County, Hillsborough County
and Palm Beach County transfer stations consist of 5,000, 8,000 and 8,000 square
feet of enclosed warehouse space, respectively, and are used for the temporary
storage of medical waste until actually transported to a final disposal
facility. The Dade County transfer station is adjacent to the Company's
principal offices. The Commercial Autoclave is located on 8,000 square feet of
property adjacent to the Company's West Palm Beach transfer station. All such
locations are leased from unaffiliated third parties. The Dade County lease
expires in 1997. The Hillsborough and Palm Beach County leases expire in 1998.
The Company has options to renew each lease for additional multi-year periods.

- 13 -

10KSB 14th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 14th

SDSSC owns its principal offices and plant located in Hampton, South
Carolina. The facility is situated on approximately ten acres of industrial
property. The facility includes a 30,000 square foot process building, a 3,000
square foot administrative building and a 5,000 square foot truck maintenance
building. The process portion of the facility is in a fully enclosed fenced
area, equipped with a truck scale, video camera system and radiation monitors to
provide for monitoring of all waste received as the facility. The facility is
subject to a $2.62 million mortgage which is held by the prior owner. The
mortgage is payable over a four year period and matures in October 2000. The
facility is in good condition except for the roof of the ash pit which is being
replaced.

Kover maintains its principal executive offices in Independence, Ohio,
where it rents approximately 4,000 square feet. Kover also maintains its finance
and billing operations in Independence, Ohio. The Independence, Ohio lease
expires in 1999. The Company also operates regional sales offices in Miami,
Florida and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida where it rents approximately 4,000 square
feet in each location. The Miami and Ft. Lauderdale office leases both expire in
1998. All of the Company's properties are leased from unaffiliated third parties
on terms derived in arms-length negotiations.

The Company does not anticipate any difficulty in locating additional
or alternate leased properties if these properties become unavailable for any
reason.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

State legislation presently restricts the Incinerator's capacity for
medical waste to the greater of (i) 50 tons per day or (ii) on a monthly basis,
1/12 of the estimated amount of medical waste generated within the State of
South Carolina within one year. The Company is continuing a constitutional
challenge against DHEC, originally commenced by the prior owner of the
Incinerator in 1991 in the U.S. District Court of South Carolina, of the state's
imposition of the limitation, as well as certain provisions of the South
Carolina Infectious Waste Management Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder. At the trial level, the Company's prior owner was successful in its
challenge to certain fee requirements under the regulations. However, it was not
successful in having the volume limitation ruled unconstitutional. The Company
filed a motion for a stay, pending appeal in the U.S. Circuit Court, of the
implementation of the volume limitations, which stay was originally granted.
However, the U.S. District Court later lifted the stay and on October 1, 1996
the 50 ton medical waste limitation went into effect. Notwithstanding, the
Company is pursuing the appeal of the volume limitation. The Company does not
believe that the volume limitation will have a material adverse impact on its
operations, since the Company anticipates the medical waste limitation to be
offset by increases in special waste incineration.

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

No matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders during the
three months ended December 31, 1996.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED WITH 1995

GENERAL. Revenues increased nearly 25% and net income increased to
$215,326, compared to a loss of $1,748,926 in 1995.

1996 results reflect the initial returns from the Company's long-term,
and now fully operational, strategy to offer customers, large and small, a
complete menu of waste management services.

The keystones of that strategy are: (1) the acquisition in December
1995 of sole distribution rights east of the Mississippi River of certain
on-site autoclave technology to be marketed under the trade name, "EnviroSafe";
and (2) the October 1996 purchase of the Company's first waste-to-energy
incinerator located in Hampton, South Carolina.

REVENUES. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996 amounted to
$17,435,287 as compared to $14,078,986 for 1995. Kover's revenues were
$12,565,590 in 1996, as compared to only $11,397,975 in 1995, for a 10%
increase. Kover's increase in revenues was due to higher sales volume,
notwithstanding the sale of Kover's Pittsburgh franchise. Revenues for the Waste
Companies totaled $4,869,697 in 1996, a 82% increase over 1995 revenues of
$2,681,011. The higher 1996 revenues of the Waste Companies were attributable to
on-site autoclave equipment sales and the inclusion of two months of SDSSC
revenue.

OPERATING COSTS. Consolidated operating costs as a percent of revenue
decreased slightly in 1996 to 73% from 74% in 1995. Operating costs for the
Waste Companies decreased to 68% as a percent of revenue in 1996 from 70% in
1995 due to higher margins related to sales of on-site autoclave equipment and
the inclusion of two months of SDSSC results in 1996. Kover operating costs
increased slightly to 76% in 1996 from 75% in 1995.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND SELLING EXPENSES. Administrative and selling
expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 25% in 1996 from 26% in 1995 as
a result of cost reduction efforts taken in 1996.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES. Amortization of intangibles decreased
$73,300 to $43,819 in 1996 from $117,119 in 1995 primarily due to the impairment
loss recorded in the fourth quarter of 1995.

OPERATING PROFIT (LOSS). The Company recorded an operating profit of
$144,791 in 1996 as compared to an operating loss of $(1,817,459) in 1995. The
significant improvement in operating earnings was primarily due to the
elimination of the 1995 non-recurring loss, and for 1996, on-site equipment
sales of SDS which have higher margins and the inclusion of two and one-half
months of SDSSC results.

OTHER, NET. Interest income, net of interest expense increased $2,002
to $70,535 in 1996 from $68,533 in 1995. The increase was due to higher interest
income earned on Kover's notes receivable, partially offset by interest expense
on higher levels of line of credit and note payable borrowing and lower average
short-term investments.

- 16 -

10KSB 17th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 17th

NET INCOME (LOSS). The Company had net income of $215,326 in 1996 as
compared to a net (loss) of $(1,748,926) in 1995. The significant improvement in
net income was primarily due to the elimination of the 1995 non-recurring loss,
and for 1996, on-site equipment sales of SDS which have higher margins and the
inclusion of the two and one-half months results of SDSSC.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH 1994

REVENUES. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995 amounted to
$14,078,986 as compared to $7,383,314 for the comparable period in 1994. The
inclusion of a full twelve months of Kover revenues of $11,397,975 in 1995, as
compared to only seven month's revenues of $5,257,840 in 1994, was the principal
reason 1995 revenues increased 91% over the comparable 1994 period. Revenues for
SDS totaled $2,681,011 in 1995, a 26% increase over 1994 revenues of $2,125,474.
This increase is primarily related to volume increases. Further, factors
contributing to the significant improvement in medical waste revenue was the
addition of the Recovery Corporation of Florida ("RCA") accounts, other new
customers and selective price increases. The price increases were initiated in
September 1995 and consisted of a 10% across the board increase on all small
quantity generator customers.

OPERATING COSTS. Consolidated operating costs as a percent of revenue
decreased to 74% in 1995 from 75% in 1994. Kover operating costs decreased to
75% in 1995 from 78% in 1994 due to actions taken in 1995. Operating costs for
SDS increased to 71% in 1995 from 66% in 1994 due to the higher costs of
servicing the RCA accounts, offset partially by the actions taken in 1995. The
Plan provided for the reduction of certain selling, general and administrative
expenses through the consolidation of consulting and staff functions and the
implementation of selective price increases for SDS customers. In addition, the
Company's management was directed to intensify their efforts in attracting new
customers. The Company achieved operating income before the nonrecurring charge
for the six months ended December 31, 1995 as a result of the implementation of
the Plan.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND SELLING EXPENSES. Administrative and selling
decreased to 26% in 1995 from 31% in 1994 of consolidated revenues. For SDS, the
expense percentage decreased to 40% of revenue in 1995 from 64% of revenue in
1994 as a result of the initiation of the Plan.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES. Amortization of intangibles increased
$14,646 to $117,119 in 1995 from $102,473 in 1994 primarily due to the
acquisitions of Kover and Broward Floor.

NONRECURRING CHARGE. Due to changes in government regulations and a
lessening of competition, in December 1995, the Company decided to focus its
efforts and resources on growing its core medical waste management business. The
Company is expected to continue to operate in the janitorial franchise segment,
however, any future growth will be limited. In this connection, the Company has
elected early application of Statement of Financial Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of".

- 17 -

10KSB 18th Page of 52 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 18th

with a final payment of $94,872 due on May 1, 2001. Interest in the amount of
$4,050 was prepaid at closing. The note is collateralized by the assets sold. At
December 31, 1995, the Company recognized an impairment loss of goodwill on its
books for the Pittsburgh Franchise in the amount of $206,481. The impairment
loss was measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets
and the fair value as determined by an offer to purchase the assets by a third
party. The impairment loss was charged against previously recorded goodwill
allocated to the intangible assets and has been included as a nonrecurring
charge in the statement of operations in 1995. Kover's Pittsburgh Franchise
sales and net loss for 1995 aggregated $2,432,530 and $(51,290), respectively.

The significant change in the way that the Cleveland and South Florida
franchises will be used has caused an impairment of the assets. Based on the
offer for the Pittsburgh franchise, the Company estimates that the fair value of
the Cleveland and South Florida franchises aggregates $1,238,000 and,
accordingly the impairment loss pertains to the janitorial franchise segment and
aggregates $1,161,991. The Company used the same percentage of impairment loss
to assets fair value from the Pittsburgh impairment for the South Florida and
Cleveland impairment computation. The impairment loss was charged against
previously recorded goodwill allocated to the intangible assets and has been
included as a nonrecurring charge in the statement of operations.

In June 1994, the Company acquired certain accounts of RCA in Central
Florida. However, as a result of the bankruptcy of RCA, the Company is no longer
able to use the RCA incinerator for these customers. The inability to use the
incinerator for these customers placed the Company at a competitive
disadvantage. Consequently, the Company canceled these contracts and recognized
an impairment loss of $143,633 resulting from the write-off of non-compete
agreements and other intangibles relating to the Company's acquisition of RCA.
The remaining assets are being used by the Company. This impairment loss
pertains to the Company's medical waste segment and is included as a
nonrecurring charge in the statement of operations for 1995.

Due to the Company's signing a ten year agreement with a waste to
energy plant for the disposal of certain wastes at lower costs as compared to
using the Commercial Autoclave, the Company decided in 1995 to reduce the amount
of waste processed at the autoclave. Consequently, the Company recognized an
impairment loss of $110,767 based upon a quote from a reseller of autoclaves.
This impairment loss pertains to the Company's medical waste segment and is
included as a nonrecurring charge in the statement of operations for 1995.

OPERATING LOSS. The Company incurred an operating loss of $(1,817,459 )
in 1995 as compared to an operating loss of $(562,443) in 1994. The increased
operating loss was primarily due to the nonrecurring charge of $(1,622,872)
discussed above. The operating loss before the nonrecurring charge and was
$(194,587) or a 65.4% improvement over 1994. The Company had an operating profit
before the nonrecurring charge of $42,595 in the fourth quarter of 1995.

NET INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, net of interest expense decreased
$43,371 to $68,533 in 1995 from $111,904 in 1994. The decrease was due to the
use of cash for the purchasing of equipment, acquisitions and funding of
operations, as well as, increased interest expense on additional borrowings made
by the Company.

NET (LOSS). The Company incurred a net (loss) of $(1,748,926) in 1995
as compared to a net (loss) of $(422,061) in 1994. The increased loss was
primarily due to the nonrecurring charge of $1,622,872 discussed above. The net
(loss) before the nonrecurring charge was

$(126,054) or a 70% improvement over 1994. The Company had net earnings before
the nonrecurring charge of $54,847 for the fourth quarter of 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's working capital at December 31, 1996 amounted to
$312,427. The Company's sources of cash during 1996 has primarily been the
proceeds from the exercise of warrants into common stock, bank borrowings and
the sale of short-term investments. During the year ended December 31, 1996,
cash decreased by $4,863 to $116,054. Operating activities used $1,198,289 of
cash, principally due to the addition of SDSSC's accounts receivables, Kover's
increased notes receivables from franchisees, SDS's notes receivables -
autoclaves and a decrease in Kover's deferred revenue on franchise sales, offset
partially by the addition of SDSSC's accounts payables and accrued expenses and
net income of $215,326, net of depreciation and provision for doubtful accounts.
The cash generated by net income was primarily due to SDSSC's sales for two and
one-half months and the sale by SDS of on-site equipment and related assignment
of notes to a leasing company. Investing activities used $218,564 principally
due to the acquisition of SDSSC's Incinerator offset by the sale of short-term
investments. Financing activities provided $1,411,990 of cash, principally due
to proceeds from leasing and the line of credit and the exercise of warrants
into common stock.

The Company has a line of credit with a bank for $1,000,000
collateralized by all of SDS's and Kover's assets. The line of credit is a
demand note and bears interest at prime plus 1%. Interest is payable monthly. At
December 31, 1996, the Company had $723,000 in outstanding borrowings under the
line. Substantially all of the Company's assets are collateralized for the loan.
As a result of the private placement described below, the outstanding balance
was reduced to $1,000 in 1997.

During the first quarter of 1996, the Company entered into an agreement
with a leasing company, whereby the Company assigned with recourse two of the
five on-site equipment leases it obtained. The terms of the agreement provide
for a rate of prime plus 2% and the collateralizing of certain on-site
equipment. The Company received $290,483, under this arrangement.

In June 1996, the Company entered into another agreement with a
different leasing company, whereby the Company can finance its own equipment
under a sale/leaseback arrangement for the purposes of financing its equipment.
The terms of the agreement provide for a 60 month lease term and an interest
rate equal to market at the time of financing. Through December 31, 1996, the
Company has sold and leased-back equipment aggregating $66,131 at an interest
rate of 9.5%.

the issuance of promissory notes aggregating $288,003. The promissory notes bear
interest at 8% a year and are payable $10,000 in principal, plus accrued
interest, on March 31, of each year for a period of five years, with the
remaining principal balance, together with accrued interest payable, at the end
of five years. The notes are collateralized by the common stock received by the
exercise of the warrants.

On October 15, 1996, the Company purchased certain assets of Chambers.
The assets purchased consisted primarily of real estate and improvements
comprising a waste incineration facility, together with all of the equipment,
vehicles, machinery, supplies and inventory associated with such incinerator
facility (the "Facility"). Chambers operated the Facility as a waste disposal
incinerator facility for solid, medical and special waste prior to the closing.
The Company intends to operate the Facility in a similar matter. The purchase
price for the Facility amounted to $3.8 million, subject to a $180,000
contingent liability, payable $1 million in cash at closing and the issuance of
a $2.62 million four (4) year non-interest bearing promissory note. The Company
received certain credits against the cash portion of the purchase price for
repairs, taxes and similar items. The consideration paid by the Company for the
Facility was determined in arms-length negotiations between representatives of
the Company and Chambers. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid out of
cash on hand and available borrowing under the Company's working capital line of
credit.

On February 13, 1997, the Company completed a private placement of 10%
Convertible Redeemable Debentures due July 1, 2000 ("the Debentures"), raising
net proceeds of $2.7 million. Interest is payable semi-annually on July 1 and
January 1. The Debentures are convertible into shares of common stock at the
holder's option any time prior to redemption or maturity at a conversion price
of $3.25 in principal amount for each share of common stock. The Company has
agreed to register the common stock underlying the Debentures within six months
from the issuance of the Debentures. A portion of the proceeds from the
Debentures was used to reduce the outstanding balance on the Company's line of
credit.

The Company believes that it has sufficient working capital for the
next twelve months.

INCOME TAXES. The Company has significant net operating loss carry
forwards. The Company has not recognized a deferred tax asset of $416,000 at
December 31, 1996. The loss carry forwards are available through 2011, to reduce
income taxes that would otherwise be payable. Realization of the benefits
relating the utilization of the loss carry forwards may be limited in any one
year due to IRC Code 382, change in ownership rules.

IMPACT OF INFLATION. Although inflation has slowed in recent years, it
is still a factor in our economy and the Company continues to seek ways to
mitigate its impact. To the extent permitted by competition, the company passes
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.
This supplier bid process has resulted in a ten year agreement with a
waste-to-energy plant at extremely competitive pricing, as well as, other
savings to the Company.

NEW FASB PRONOUNCEMENTS. In June 1996, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities." The Statement
establishes a financial-components approach to transfers and servicing of
financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities that focuses on control. The
Company will adopt the Statement as of January 1, 1997 and its implementation is
not expected to have a material effect.

Med/Waste, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND USE OF ESTIMATES

The Company was incorporated in November 1991 under the laws of the State of
Delaware. In March 1992, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of SDS.
In June 1994, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of Kover. In
October 1996, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary SDSSC, purchased
certain incineration related assets of Chambers Medical Technologies of South
Carolina, Inc., a South Carolina corporation ("Chambers").

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.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Med/Waste, Inc.
and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SDS, SDSSC and Kover (collectively the
"Company"). SDS and SDSSC are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the
"Waste Companies". All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in
consolidation. Since SDSSC was acquired effective October 15, 1996, the
accompanying 1996 statement of operations only includes SDSSC's operations for
the last two and one-half months of 1996.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Med/Waste, Inc. And Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (CONTINUED)

NOTES RECEIVABLE

The notes from Kover's franchisees bear interest at 1% per month, generally from
the time Kover provides the franchisee with commercial cleaning accounts for
servicing. Principal and interest payments are generally deducted from the
monthly amounts Kover owes the franchisee for providing cleaning services. Each
franchise agreement is subject to termination for nonpayment of the franchise
note. The notes are personally guaranteed by the individuals who own the
franchise and have terms of two years or less.

The notes from the Waste Companies' autoclave sales are non-interest bearing and
will be discounted to a leasing company at a rate of 9.75% during the first
quarter of 1997. The outstanding amount of receivables sold to and proceeds
received from independent third parties with recourse was $290,483 at December
31, 1996. No such transactions occurred during 1995. The Company has estimated
that no obligation under the recourse provisions exist based on the excellent
credit rating of the autoclave customers.

FIXED INCOME INVESTMENTS

The Company determines the appropriate classification at time of purchase and
reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet. Prior to December
31,1995, the Company classified its fixed income investments as debt securities
held-to-maturity since the Company then had the positive intent and ability to
hold the debt securities to maturity. During 1995, as a result of acquisition
and operational needs, the Company reevaluated its designation, and determined
that the securities should be classified as debt securities available for sale.
Accordingly, the Company transferred $750,238 between the categories during
1995. In addition, change in the classification was at fair value and did not
result in a material unrealized holding gain or loss.

Investments in debt securities are stated at cost, which approximates fair
value.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation is provided on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which
range from five to twenty years.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist primarily of customer lists and non-compete agreements
over a useful life ranging from five to twenty years. Amortization has been
provided by the straight-line method over the useful lives

POLICIES (CONTINUED)

of the assets. The Company continually evaluates the carrying value of its
intangible assets. Impairments are recognized when the expected future operating
cash flows to be derived from such intangible assets are less than their
carrying values.

ACCOUNTING FOR LONG LIVED ASSETS

Effective December 31, 1995, the Company elected early application of Statement
of Financial Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived
Assets and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed of" (notes 3 and 13).

REVENUE FROM FRANCHISE OPERATIONS

Revenues from commercial cleaning are recognized as services are performed and
supplies are provided. Revenues from the sale of franchises are recognized after
the Company has completed the requirements of the franchise agreement. The
portion of the franchise sale fees related to providing new commercial cleaning
accounts to the franchisees is included in the balance sheet as deferred revenue
until the requirements of the franchise agreement have been fulfilled.

The gross amounts billed by Kover for commercial cleaning services are included
in revenues and the gross amounts due franchisees for providing the cleaning
services (100% of such revenues less royalties and management fees of 10% to
15%) are included in operating costs.

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".

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Weighted average shares outstanding include all common and dilutive common
equivalent shares for the periods they were outstanding. The effect of dilutive
stock options and warrants (common stock equivalents) have not been included in
the computation for the year ended December 31, 1995 because inclusion would
have decreased the net loss per share.

extinguishment of liabilities that focuses on control. The Company will adopt
the Statement as of January 1, 1997 and its implementation is not expected to
have a material effect.

2. FIXED INCOME INVESTMENTS

As of December 31, 1995 the Company's debt securities held for sale and held to
maturity included investments in US Treasury notes due in 1996. Such amounts
were redeemed and used by the Company for operations and its acquisition of
SDSSC, and accordingly, as of December 31, 1996 the Company did not have any
debt securities held for sale. The cost and fair value of the debt securities at
December 31, 1995 was $750,328 and $751,640, respectively. Gross unrealized
holding gains and losses were not material for 1996 and 1995. Proceeds from the
sales aggregated $750,328 and $746,565, from available- for-sale debt securities
in 1996 and 1995, respectively.

3. ACQUISITIONS

In June 1994, the Company acquired Kover for $50,000 of cash and a total of
89,000 shares of Med/Waste, Inc. common stock valued at $166,875 at the time of
issuance. The acquisition was recorded pursuant to the purchase method of
accounting. Kover is the master franchiser for the Coverall Cleaning Concept in
the South Florida and Cleveland metropolitan areas. Kover's liabilities exceeded
its net tangible assets by $1,033,391 as of June 1, 1994. The $1,033,391 excess
of liabilities over the fair value of tangible assets, the $50,000 of cash paid,
the $58,788 of acquisition costs to date and $166,875 representing the 89,000
shares at $1.875 per share issued in the acquisition, have been included in
intangible assets at December 31, 1994 (note 13). The Company invested
approximately $1,300,000 of cash into Kover to pay off outstanding loans and
liabilities assumed in the acquisition.

In July 1994, the Company advanced $139,000 to RCA for accounts receivable and
paid RCA $85,000 for the operating equipment needed for SDS to begin servicing
all of the medical waste hauling contracts of RCA in Central and South Florida.
RCA also gave SDS a favorable burn price at RCA's incinerator in Cocoa Beach,
Florida, on up to 5 million pounds of medical waste each year for the following
2 years. The Company paid $40,000 in 1994 under a non-compete agreement
associated with such transaction. In 1995, RCA filed for bankruptcy protection
and closed its Cocoa Beach, Florida incinerator (note 13). As a result the
Company wrote-off the excess of purchase price over fair value in 1995 since the
favorable burn rate was no longer available.

On June 30, 1995, Kover purchased certain customer lists, equipment, supplies
and fixtures from Broward Floor Care and Supply, Inc. ("Broward Floor"), a South
Florida janitorial company, for $190,000. The $190,000 purchase price consisted
of $120,000 in cash at closing and the issuance of two purchase money promissory
notes aggregating $70,000. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the
assets acquired

by approximately $157,000. The servicing of the Broward Floor accounts has been
integrated with Kover's regular franchise commercial cleaning services
operations.

On October 15, 1996, the Company purchased certain assets of Chambers. The
assets purchased consisted primarily of real estate and improvements comprising
a waste incineration facility, together with all of the equipment, vehicles,
machinery, supplies and inventory associated with such incinerator facility (the
"Facility"). The purchase price for the Facility amounted to $3.8 million,
subject to a $180,000 contingent liability for capital repairs, payable $1
million in cash at closing and the issuance of a $2.62 million four (4) year
non-interest bearing promissory note. The Company received certain credits
against the cash portion of the purchase price for repairs, taxes and similar
items. The consideration paid by the Company for the Facility was determined in
arms-length negotiations between representatives of the Company and Chambers.
The cash portion of the purchase price was paid out of cash on hand and
available borrowings under the Company's working capital line of credit (note 5
(1)).

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations have been
prepared as if the acquisition of SDSSC had occurred at the beginning of 1996
and 1995:

during such year. The prepayments shall reduce the principal payments
due in the fourth year of the note and under no event shall exceed
$700,000 per year.

(2) In September 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank,
whereby the Company can borrow up to $400,000 under a revolving line of

6. STOCK WARRANTS AND IPO

The Company had private placement warrants to purchase 428,143 shares
outstanding until August 31, 1996. Each private placement warrant was
exercisable into one share of the Company's common stock at $2.40. Warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 303,996 shares of common stock were exercised prior to
August 31, 1996 for aggregate cash proceeds of $698,263. Warrants to purchase
120,004 shares of common stock were exercised by three directors through the
issuance of promissory notes aggregating $288,003. The promissory notes are
collateralized by the common stock issued and payable $10,000 in principal, plus
accrued interest, on March 31, of each year for a period of five years, with the
remaining principal balance, together with accrued interest, payable at the end
of five years.

In connection with the Company's initial public offering consummated in December

In August 1995, the Company issued 60,000 warrants to its financial public
relations firm at the then fair market value of the underlying stock. Such
warrants have an exercise price of $2.38 per share for a term of three years.

7. STOCK OPTIONS

The Company has three stock option plans (a) the 1993 Employee Stock Option Plan
(the "1993 Plan"), (b) the Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan")
and (c) the 1996 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan"). The 1993,
Directors and 1996 Plans have 750,000, 500,000 and 500,000 shares, respectively,
reserved for issuance. The Company's shareholders approved the 1996 Plan at the
1996 annual meeting of stockholders.

Under the Directors Plan, each non-employee director receives automatic non
discretionary grants of options on June 2 of each year. On each grant date, each
non-employee receives options to purchase 6,250 shares of common stock for
service on the board, additional options to purchase 6,250 shares of common
stock for service on each committee of the board, other than the executive
committee and additional options to purchase 6,250 shares for service as
chairman of a committee other than the executive committee. Non- employee
directors receive options to purchase 12,500 shares for service on the executive
committee and an additional 12,500 as chairman of the executive committee. Each
option has a term of five (5) years and is exercisable commencing six (6) months
following the date of grant. Under the Directors Plan, options to purchase
100,000 and 137,500 shares were automatically granted in 1995 and 1996,
respectively at exercise prices equal to the then fair market value of the
underlying common stock. In August 1995, options to purchase 18,750 shares
expired as a result of the resignation of a director in 1994. As of December 31,
1996, there were outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 381,250 shares
of common stock under the Directors Plan at prices ranging from $2.125 to $4.00
per share, with 118,750 shares available for future grants.

All officers and employees are eligible for grants of options under the 1993 and
1996 Plans, which are administered by a stock option committee which has the
discretion to determine to whom, the amount, exercise prices, exercise terms and
all other matters relating to the grant of options under such plans. Options to
purchase 25,000 and 304,200 shares were granted under the 1993 Plan in 1996 and
1995 at the then fair market value of the underlying shares. As of December 31,
1996 options to purchase 6,250 shares under the 1993 Plan were exercised, and
options to purchase 656,450 shares were outstanding at exercise prices ranging
from $2.125 to $2.75 per share. Options to purchase 200,000 shares were granted
under the 1996 Plan in 1996 at the then fair market value of the underlying
shares. As of December 31, 1996 options to purchase 200,000 shares were
outstanding under the 1996 Plan at an exercise price of $2.25 per share. All
options originally granted under the 1993 Plan vested 25% at the time of the
grant and an additional 25% on each anniversary date thereafter. In October
1995, the Company's Stock Option Committee approved the acceleration of
substantially all of the options previously granted under the 1993 Plan so that
all options are immediately exercisable by the holders thereof. All options
granted under the 1996 Plan vest 25% at the time of the grant and an additional
25% on each anniversary date thereafter.

The directors, 1993 and 1996 Plans provide for the automatic grant of reload
options to an optionee who would pay all, or part of, the option exercise price
by delivery of shares of common stock already owned by

such optionee. The common shares underlying these plans have not been registered
for issuance with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In 1995 and 1996, the Company granted options to purchase 16,000 and 5,000
shares to various advisors. The exercise prices range from $2.125 to $2.625 per
share.

The exercise price of all options granted by the Company since inception was the
closing market price on the grant date.

At December 31, 1996, options granted under the Directors Plan, the 1993 Plan
and the 1996 Plan were accounted for under APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations in accounting for the plans.
Under APB Opinion 25, because the exercise price of the Company's stock option
plans equal the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no
compensation cost is recognized.

FASB Statement 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", requires the
Company to provide pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per
share as if compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans had been
determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in FASB
Statement 123. For purposes of this disclosure, the Company estimates the fair
value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for
grants in 1995 and 1996, respectively: no dividends; expected volatility of 49
percent; risk-free interest rates of 6% and expected lives of one year.

Under the accounting provisions of FASB Statement 123, the Company's net income
and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts
indicated below:

8. INCOME TAXES

At December 31, 1996, the Company had Federal and Florida net operating loss
carry forwards of approximately $1,250,000 that expire through 2011. For
financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance of $416,000 has been
recognized to offset the net deferred tax assets related to these carry forwards
and other deferred tax assets. The Company did not have an income tax provision
in 1996 as a result of the utilization of $84,000 of net operating loss carry
forwards. Realization of the benefits related to pre-acquisition losses may be
limited in any one year due to IRS Code Section 382, change of ownership rules.

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

$196,150 from a truck leasing company requiring monthly payments aggregating
$5,050. A capital lease obligation of $196,150 was recorded and is being
amortized over the five year term based upon a 10% incremental borrowing rate.

In June 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with a leasing company,
whereby the Company can finance up to $1,000,000 of equipment under a
sale/leaseback arrangement for the purposes of financing its new on-site
equipment sales. The terms of the agreement provide for a 60 month lease term

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The medical waste disposal industry involves potentially significant risks of
statutory, contractual, tort and common law liability. Potential liability could
involve, for example, claims for clean-up costs, personal injury, or damage to
the environment, claims of employees, customers or third parties for personal
injury or property damage occurring in the course of the Company's operations,
or claims alleging negligence or professional errors or omissions in the
planning or performance of work. The Company could also be subject to fines in
connection with violations of regulatory requirements. The Company attempts to
operate safely and prudently and has not had any material violations to date of
which it is aware.

The Company carries liability insurance coverage which it considers sufficient
to meet regulatory and customer requirements and to protect the Company's
employees, assets, and operations. The availability of liability insurance
within the waste industry has been adversely affected by the constrained market
for casualty and environmental insurance. In the future, insurance that might be
available may be at significantly increased premiums with less extensive
coverage. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate insurance coverage at a
reasonable cost, it may become exposed to potential liability claims. In such
event, a successful claim, if of sufficient magnitude, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

Kover requires each franchisee to maintain comprehensive liability insurance to
protect the Company and its franchisees from any claims arising out of the
operation of the franchisee's business. Each franchisee is also required to be
bonded.

The Waste Companies sell their services principally to customers on the east
coast of the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of
its customers and generally does not require collateral for outstanding accounts
receivable. Allowances are estimated for potential credit losses.

The Company, in the ordinary course of conducting its business, is subject to
various state and federal environmental requirements. In the opinion of
management, the Company is in compliance with these requirements.

12. RETIREMENT PLAN

Kover sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering substantially all of
its employees. Employer contributions are discretionary and totaled
approximately $3,190 in 1996 and $3,000 in 1995.

13. NONRECURRING CHARGE

Due to changes in government regulations and a lessening of competition, in
December 1995, the Company decided to focus its efforts and resources on growing
its core medical waste management business. The Company will continue to operate
in the janitorial franchise segment, however, any future growth is expected to
be limited. In this connection, the Company elected early application of
Statement of Financial Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of".

On April 1, 1996, the Company assigned Kover's Pittsburgh master franchise and
sold certain notes receivables from franchises, accounts receivable, inventory,
and operating and office equipment related to Kover's Pittsburgh franchise to a
third party for a purchase price of $270,000. The $270,000 sales price consisted
of $135,000 in cash at closing and the issuance of a $135,000 promissory note
from the purchaser. The note earns interest at a rate of 7.415% per annum.
Interest and principal payments of $1,710 is payable monthly from May 1, 1997 to
April 30, 2001, with a final payment of $94,872 due on May 1, 2001. Interest in
the amount of $4,050 was prepaid at closing. The note is collateralized by the
assets sold. At December 31, 1995, the Company recognized an impairment loss of
goodwill on its books for the Pittsburgh Franchise in the amount of $206,481.
The impairment loss was measured as the difference between the carrying amount
of the assets and the fair value as determined by an offer to purchase the
assets by a third party. The impairment loss was charged against previously
recorded goodwill allocated to the intangible assets and has been included as a
nonrecurring charge in the statement of operations in 1995. Kover's Pittsburgh
Franchise sales and net loss for 1995 aggregated $2,432,530 and $(51,290),
respectively.

As a result of the bankruptcy of RCA, the Company is no longer able to use the
RCA incinerator for certain customers purchased in a prior year from RCA. The
inability to use the incinerator for these customers placed the Company at a
competitive disadvantage. Consequently, the Company canceled these contracts and
recognized an impairment loss of $143,633 in 1995 resulting from the write-off
of non-compete agreements and other intangibles relating to the Company's
acquisition of RCA. The remaining assets are being used by the Company. This
impairment loss pertains to the Company's medical waste segment and is included
as a nonrecurring charge in the statement of operations.

13. NONRECURRING CHARGE (CONTINUED)

Due to the Company's signing a ten year agreement with a waste to energy plant
for the disposal of certain wastes at lower costs as compared to using the

15. SALE OF KOVER'S PITTSBURGH FRANCHISE

16. LITIGATION

State legislation presently restricts the Incinerator's capacity for medical
waste to the greater of (i) 50 tons per day or (ii) on a monthly basis, 1/12 of
the estimated amount of medical waste generated within the State of South
Carolina within one year. The Company is continuing a constitutional challenge
against South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control ("DHEC"),
originally maintained by the prior owner of the Incinerator, of the state's
imposition of the limitation, as well as certain provisions of the South
Carolina Infectious Waste Management Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder. At the trial level, the Company's prior owner was successful in its
challenge to certain fee requirements under the regulations. However, it was not
successful in having the volume limitation ruled unconstitutional. The Company
filed a motion for a stay, pending appeal, of the implementation of the volume
limitations, which stay was originally granted. However, the lower court later
lifted the stay and on October 1, 1996 the 50 ton medical waste limitation went
into effect. Notwithstanding, the Company is pursuing the appeal of the volume
limitation. The Company does not believe that the volume limitation will have a
material adverse impact on its operations, since the Company anticipates the
medical waste limitation to be offset by increases in special waste
incineration.
