ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS. Business Development --------------------- We were incorporated on November 17, 1992 in the State of Texas. We conduct our business from our headquarters in Corpus Christi, Texas; from offices in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and from offices in Kiev, Ukraine. We first had revenues from operations in 1995. We are a technology management company that develops, invests in, patents, owns, manages, and brings to market innovative technologies. We have a formal relationship with several prestigious organizations in Ukraine. They have, as their stockholders or members, many of Ukraine's leading scientists, engineers and technicians. We believe we are unique in our business mission. We facilitate the transfer to the U.S. and other developed countries of technologies developed by the scientists and engineers of UkraineIncluded in these technologies and independent of other Ukraine business interests are - - our platform, medical, Live Biological Tissue Bonding technology, which bonds human tissue without the use of sutures, staples, sealants or glues. More than 1,000 successful human surgeries have been performed in clinical trials in Ukraine using more than 30 different types of surgical procedures, - the 390,000-pound proprietary Landfill Gas Purification System, installed at a municipal waste landfill in Chastang, Alabama, that processes raw landfill gas to pipeline quality, and - the environmentally friendly, large-farm, Anaerobic Animal Waste Processing System. We are the largest shareholder and foreign investor in "United Engineering Closed Joint Stock Company with Foreign Investment," a successful Ukraine private engineering company specializing in defense contracts that has also been successful in securing private sector contracts. The Ukraine company's name is United Engineering Company. It is called a "joint stock company with a foreign investor." The foreign investor is us. United Engineering Company is authorized by Ukraine law, among other things, to perform classified and secret construction works related to the national security of Ukraine. We formalized our first relationship with them in February 1994 when we registered with the Ukraine Government a Ukraine company owned 50 percent by us and 50 percent by the Ukraine organizations. We now own 33-1/3 percent of the Ukraine company, 33 1/3 is owned by key UEC executive employees and members of the Supervisory Council and 33 1/3 percent is owned by the following Ukraine companies or organizations: - The State Property Fund of Ukraine. It owns all state enterprises and property of the state, and it is represented by: 1

- Yuzhnoye (Southern) Machine Building Plant. This is a giant manufacturing complex located in Dniepropetrovsk. It built many of the missiles and nuclear missiles for the former Soviet Union. Today, it manufactures commercial satellites, farming tractors for export, trolley cars, and other heavy products. - Design Bureau "Yuzhnoye". This organization was established in 1954. It developed and turned over to the Ukraine Army several generations of missiles (specifically, SS-18 "Satan" satellite and the launch rockets "Cyclone" and "Zinet"), space carrier rockets, and artificial satellites. Design Bureau employs several thousand researchers and production engineers and is the leading enterprise in Ukraine for the development of rocket and other jet systems. It also is the leading enterprise for the elimination of launching sites in Ukraine. The Bureau also works on conversion projects, trolley busses, pumps for the oil industry, small-sized vehicles for cleaning city streets, and devices for manufacturing margarine, oils, etc. It is under the direction of Academician Stanislav Nikolayevich Konyukhov, who also is president of United Engineering Company. - Trust No. 5 for Special Construction Works. This organization believes itself to be the highest technical and most qualified engineering firm in the former Soviet Union. It was involved in building all of the former Soviet Union's nuclear and non-nuclear missile launching pads and silos, the Soviet space station, several chemical and oil industry plants and pipelines, and other installations requiring the highest technologies of the former Soviet Union. - E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding. This organization was founded in 1934 by the Academy of Sciences of the Ukraine S.S.R. It is headed today by Professor Boris Paton, the president of the Ukraine Academy of Sciences. It developed the collapsible, titanium-welded, building-structure technology that was used in the construction of the Soviet space station "MIRE." We believe the Paton Institute is one of the world's most prominent scientific institutions involved in metal casting and bonding ceramics, microwave bonding of metals and plastics, explosive welding and cutting, welding in space and underwater, electro metallurgy, protective coatings, and bridge building and coating. It employed at one time more than 5,000 scientists and engineers and employs today more than 200 engineers and executives. It has joint ventures with several multinational companies and governmental agencies including the U.S. Department of Energy and NASA. - Spivdruznist Business Association. This was formed by major defense enterprises to develop and implement methods of dismantling munitions and converting the metals and explosive by-products to commercially marketable products. It is composed of 6 large manufacturing facilities that developed and manufactured explosives, weapons and military equipment during the Cold War. 2

- Pivdenexo, Ltd. This is a research, development and production-design "think tank." The above organizations work with us as well as with other organizations in Ukraine. Our working relationship generally focuses on two types of opportunities: - When the above organizations negotiate with local enterprises that aim to bring new ideas and projects to the U.S. and to world markets. - After we first identify technologies developed in Ukraine that appear to have promising commercial application. In such instances, we frequently finance the costs of research and development, patent applications, manufacturing, and market distribution, and we then own these technologies. Our anaerobic Farm-Waste Disposal Equipment Project is such a project. There are no specific funding arrangements required of the stockholders of United Engineering Company. Projects are funded on a case-by-case basis. An aggregate of $2,078,072 in costs have been contributed to projects by us and the Ukraine shareholders of United Engineering Company, and in return United Engineering Company pays us a dividend equal to 10% of the previous year's profit pro rated on our percentage of ownership. The remaining 90% is reinvested to avoid United Engineering Company borrowing funds from Ukraine banks at interest rates that ranged between 35% to 190%. We have recovered $218,176 of our share of the costs of United Engineering projects. We wrote off $323,612 of these costs because we do not expect to recover this amount of these costs within one year, even though we do expect to recover these funds over the next several years. Business in Ukraine is built on personal relationships and trust as well as dealing with people who have the authority to make a project work. In late 1992 and early 1993 we dealt with middle management people who had good ideas but could not make anything happen. We then developed personal relationships with partners such as the President of the Academy of Science, Yuzhnoye Machine Building, Yuzhnoye Design Bureau and the 43rd missile army. We were then able to reach the proper leaders and decision-makers to make our progress easier in working through the bureaucratic process. Ukraine requires a good deal of documentation for both the national and regional governments. We have found these problems are best solved by our Ukraine partners, who are accustomed to dealing with these issues and know how to work through the bureaucratic process. The economic laws in Ukraine change often, and our offices deal with the changing laws on a weekly basis. In Ukraine and throughout the former Soviet Union there is constant change in the economic conditions as well as high inflation. We have seen bank loan interest rates fluctuate from a high of 190 percent per annum to a low of 35 percent per annum. We and the Ukraine shareholders in United Engineering Company reinvest the majority of our profits to avoid paying these high loan rates. 3

The local currency falling on the international currency markets has had a strong negative impact on our balance sheet. The exchange rate fell from 1.54 Hryvna to the dollar in 1997 to 5.47 Hryvna to the dollar in 2000. We have experienced hyperinflation during some years. This has been neutralized somewhat as a result of the UEC contracts being negotiated in U.S. dollars and UEC's having been able to take advantage of the exchange rate fluctuations. Once the U.S. funds are received by UEC and converted to Hryvna, the exchange rate works against us, as the amount of profit and dividends is adjusted to the December 31 currency exchange rate. The primary step taken to offset the currency exchange problem and inflation problem is for UEC to hold the U.S. currency as long as possible before converting to Hryvna. UEC has also invested in a number of inflation sensitive assets that it uses in day-to-day operations, such as ownership of its offices in Kiev, Dneipropetrovsk and Pervomaysk. Other difficulties such as language barrier and local customs have been solved by hiring quality Ukrainian, bi-lingual, English-speaking staff and training them to meet our standard and expectations of doing business. There are no restrictions related to our investment in United Engineering Company including restrictions on its ability to declare and record dividends. Inside Ukraine, we have assisted United Engineering Company in its negotiation of contracts for the dismantling of the Ukraine nuclear and non-nuclear missiles, silos, and related equipment. This dismantling is required by the treaty known as START and will be paid for by the U.S. and other western countries. The Ukraine members of UEC designed, built and commanded these missiles and silos, are logical organizations to dismantle them, and are expected to receive a substantial portion of the contracts to dismantle them. Since 1995 United Engineering Company has completed contracts with U.S. contractors for more than $6.0 million with respect to ICBM dismantlement in Ukraine and for more than DM4.7 million in contracts with the German Government and German contractors for new methods of dismantling ICBM silos. Outside Ukraine, we have identified several promising Ukraine-developed technologies. We have been both successful and unsuccessful in negotiating technology transfer agreements between Ukraine entities or one of its constituent Ukraine organizations and companies in the U.S. Working through the Ukraine Academy of Services and the E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding, we have successfully negotiated technology transfer agreements for the Live Tissue Bonding Equipment Project and the Carbon Dioxide Separator Project set forth below. Business of the Company -------------------------- Live Tissue Bonding Equipment. The E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of Kiev, Ukraine developed equipment that bonds blood vessels and soft tissues in substantially less time than other technologies take and apparently leaves no or minimal trace scar tissues after a lapse of six to seven months. The equipment bonds the soft biological tissue with a special miniature surgical tool. No glues, sutures, staples or other foreign matter are used. 4
ARS10th Page of 55TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
The process is best described as a welding process. The scar tissue is either minimal or non-existent. Tests conducted in Louisville, Kentucky by U.S. surgeons on rabbits' stomachs resulted in scar tissue only forty microns wide six months after surgery. It appears that the Ukraine scientists have developed a superior, all-purpose, seamless method of bonding soft biological tissues, which method is characterized by simple manipulation applicable to different surgical operations and the fast restoration of tissues without the formation of coarse scars. Apparently there is no need for prolonged special training of surgeons and surgical personnel. The Ukraine prototype for the equipment was successfully demonstrated to physicians and surgeons in the U.S. in June 1996 on the blood vessels, nerves and stomachs of rats and rabbits. Additional, subsequent demonstrations on animals were performed in Ukraine by Ukraine surgeons with U.S. surgeons in attendance. In 1998 the U.S. surgeons performed successful tests on animals in Louisville, Kentucky. Testing on humans in Ukraine began in mid-year 1998. One patient had a blood vessel welded, and the other patient had a torn uterus repaired using minimally invasive surgery tools. According to the Ukraine doctors, both patients recovered in the normal amount of healing time without side effects. E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding of the Ukraine National Academy of Sciences and International Association of Welding filed U.S. and international patent applications on the process in February 1999. An Australia patent has been issued, but no other patents have been issued. We own the technology and have been assigned the exclusive world rights of the patents - should they be issued. See Exhibit 10.3 filed as part of our Form 10-SB. We have submitted no applications, requests or testing results to the Federal Drug Administration. We have not marketed the bonding equipment in the Ukraine or any other non-U.S. country and have no plans at this time to do this. Our plans are to manufacture prototypes only in Ukraine and to set up fully controlled clinical trials in Ukraine for comprehensive human testing. We began this clinical work in May 2000. To date we have completed more than 1,000 successful human surgeries at Ukraine hospitals. We are currently negotiating with a group of private investors who are familiar with our company for these funds. In 2002 we formed Live Tissue Connect, Inc., a Delaware corporation, through which we propose to develop our Tissue Bonding technology. We own 86 percent of Live Tissue Connect, Inc. We estimate that in excess of $2 million have been expended in developing the project and that $2.5 million of additional funds must be expended to bring this product to market. We estimate that the first surgical equipment will be manufactured in the U.S. when the U.S. patent applications are approved and patents are issued. This project is still in the development stage, even though the Ukrainians have created a finished product in their special miniature surgical tool. Improvements in the tool are possible, and testing on live tissue of humans to U.S. testing standards is required. Approval of the process and equipment by the Federal Drug Administration is required. 5

Anaerobic Farm-Waste Disposal Equipment. We are marketing a closed system, no lagoon, anaerobic plant that: - processes farm-animal waste into a high grade organic fertilizer, - captures the methane gas for commercial use, - reduces the odor, and - prevents all runoff and contamination of the environment. This processing plant was developed in Ukraine before the breakup of the Soviet Union. The developer is a more-than-100-year-old Ukraine joint stock company that is the Ukraine's largest enterprise that manufactures equipment for the petroleum and chemical industries. The company's name is Sumy Frunze Machine-Building Science-and-Production Association, called herein "Frunze." Through United Engineering Company we have obtained the exclusive, worldwide rights to market Frunze's anaerobic farm-waste disposal plant. Frunze developed the processing plant to solve the above-mentioned problems that were associated with a 3,000-head swine farm located in the center of a city of 400,000 people. The plant has operated successfully for more than twelve years. This technology was patented in 1991 in U.S.S.R. Patent applications have not been filed in the U.S. Frunze has assigned to us the worldwide rights to market, distribute, license and service products covered by the U.S.S.R. patents and any upgrades of the 17-year-duration patents. This assignment extends until June 4, 2019 but will become non-exclusive if, after the first plant is installed and fully operational in the U.S., we fail to place orders annually for at least $1 million in plant and equipment to be manufactured in Ukraine. We are required to pay royalties equal to five percent of the costs of all equipment manufactured in Ukraine. Under our license agreement with United Engineering Company and the Ukraine inventor, Ivan Semenenko, the Ukrainians are - to design each anaerobic farm-waste disposal facility after visiting the site where it is to be placed, - to construct all of the facility in Ukraine except for the electric motors, generators, tanks and computer controls, - to oversee the installation and startup of the facility at each project site, and - to provide equipment warranties acceptable to us. 6
ARS12th Page of 55TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 12th
Our obligations are - to obtain contracts for the installation of the facilities, - to pay the expenses of the Ukrainians' visits to the U.S. or other countries in the performance of their obligations under the license, - to pay for and arrange for the delivery to the facility sites of all equipment not manufactured in Ukraine, and - to act as a liaison between the Ukrainians and persons in the countries where facilities are to be installed. United Engineering Company coordinates our relations with Frunze, the manufacturer, in Ukraine. The plants will be custom designed for each user. The major portion of each plant will be manufactured initially, at least, by Frunze in Ukraine. The electric motors, generators, tanks and computer controls will be obtained in the U.S. Approximately 70% of the cost of a plant will be for Ukraine-manufactured parts at a cost far less than could be obtained in the U.S. We are attempting to market this technology ourselves in Oklahoma and in other states. We are negotiating contracts now. We expect contracts to be executed during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003. We believe a considerable market exists for the plant, should it be accepted by the industry. At the end of 1997 there were 1,520 U.S. swine farms with 5,000 head or more. The cost of a Farm Waste Anaerobic Plant can be recovered by the farmer or producer over time from: - organic fertilizer sales, - methane gas converted to electricity used on the farm and sold commercially, - elimination of waste lagoon expense, and - reduction of other operating costs. Of major public relations importance is a reduction of foul odors. The only exposure of the animal waste to the atmosphere is the one-day-or-less period that elapses before it is hosed or scraped to the pump site for transportation to the closed storage tanks or directly to the processing plant. Little decomposition and emission of gases occur during this initial period. Of major health importance are: - the elimination of the volatile organic acids, which are consumed by the gas-producing bacteria, 7
ARS13th Page of 55TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 13th
- the elimination of surface and ground water contamination, and - the dramatic reduction of pathogen populations in the heated digesters. We have met resistance from swine and dairy farmers, in our efforts to sell our Farm Waste Anaerobic Plant, due to the long period of time required for small farms to recover the costs of the plant and due to falling milk prices. Carbon Dioxide Separator. We own the exclusive and perpetual world rights to service, license and market certain unpatented equipment manufactured in Ukraine that separates carbon dioxide and other impurities from the gas produced in landfills. The equipment converts the remaining gas to a cleaner, up to 98-percent pure methane gas for use in internal combustion engines or for sale to natural gas companies. This equipment was developed for us by the Institute of Gas, Ukraine National Academy of Sciences and will be manufactured for us only by Sumy Frunze in Sumy, Ukraine. We have installed the first set of equipment at the landfill in Chastang (Mobile), Alabama. We are now testing the equipment and fine-tuning the synchronization of the equipment with the 70 wells drilled in the landfill. The manufacturing costs of our CO2 separator plants are substantially lower than the costs of competitive units. We have executed an operating agreement with Resource Technology Corporation of Chicago, Illinois, to exploit this technology. Our first plant will be placed on a landfill in Mount Vernon, Alabama. The plant will be manufactured in Ukraine. The landfill operator will provide all other equipment needed as well as the operations. Our agreement with Resource Technology Corporation requires us to provide the plant and bring it to the U.S. We have secured and spent approximately $1,000,000 to fulfill our obligations under the agreement. Resource Technology Corporation will contribute - all necessary government approvals, all piping, gathering system, wells, blower, metering system, pipeline, tanks and other auxiliary equipment, the cost of which is estimated to be approximately $1,200,000. Revenue from the plant will be shared 65 percent for Resources Technology Corporation and 35 percent for us until payout of costs, at which time revenue will be shared equally. CSMG Gastech LLC. In February 2001 CSMG, as its manager, formally formed CSMG Gastech LLC ("Gastech") as a Texas limited liability company. Gastech's purpose was to raise the funds needed to buy CO2 Gas Separator equipment to install on landfills to be operated by Resource Technology Corporation ("RTC") or other entities. We had entered into an agreement with RTC whereby we would pay for and furnish the CO2 Separator equipment made in Ukraine, installation and start-up and RTC would furnish all other equipment and expenses needed to install and operate the gas gathering system, gas delivery to the CO2 separator system, metering and the gas pipeline from the CO2 separator to the customer pipelineFrom the monthly gross proceeds of sales of methane gas, each of RTC and CSMG are to first recover its monthly expenses related to the facility and its equipment costs amortized over an eight-year period. The net proceeds are then to be shared 50-50 by RTC and us. We assigned our interest in the RTC agreement to Gastech and proposed to potential investors in Gastech that they contribute $800,000 for a 40-percent interest in Gastech. After Gastech had raised $226,000 from ten investors, in 8
ARS14th Page of 55TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
March 2001 the Texas Securities Commission commenced an investigation of Gastech and wrote letters to its investors asking them if they had been advised by us that RTC was a chapter 11 debtor in a proceeding in Chicago. The Texas Securities Commission then required us to offer to rescind the securities purchases of the ten investors. We did so. Two investors accepted the rescission offer, and each was returned his $10,000 investment. We regard the Texas Securities Commission matter closed. No further interests in Gastech were sold, due to the action of the Texas Securities Commission. To cover the shortfall in funds needed to pay for the first CO2 Separator to be used in a landfill to be operated by RTC, we borrowed $551,000 in increments from StoneGate LLC of Florida on one-year notes at 10 percent interest due as follows: $115,000 plus interest is due in May 2002, $362,000 plus interest is due in July 2002 and $74,000 plus interest is due in August 2002. The CO2 Separator equipment was designed by the Gas Institute National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine during the latter part of 2000. A purchase contract was executed in February 2001 with Sumy-Frunze Joint Stock Company of Ukraine for a purchase price of $685,484. The price included all necessary certifications, all necessary equipment for operation, shipping to the Port of Houston and supervision personnel for installation. The tonnage of the equipment is 177 metric tons. No additional equipment is needed. The equipment was fully paid for using the funds of Gastech, the funds borrowed from StoneGate LLC and other sources. The equipment arrived in Houston, Texas on November 22, 2001. It was installed at the Chastang Landfill near Mobile, Alabama during the first fiscal quarter of 2003. Natural gas production and sales should commence during the second quarter of 2003. The eight investors in Gastech that invested $206,000 will get 10.3 percent of our and Gastech's share of the monthly proceeds from production of the Chastang facility and we will get 89.7 percent of this share. We propose to assign part of this 89.7 percent interest to persons - as yet unidentified - that provide the funds that repay to StoneGate LLC the $551,000 it loaned us plus interest on the loans. In December 2001 the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Chicago affirmed RTC's contract rights at Chastang. RTC is operating as a debtor-in-possession under its own management, not a trustee. We were recently advised by the president of RTC that RTC expects to emerge from chapter 11, through a plan of reorganization, in 2003.

We have organized a majority-owned subsidiary, Anaerobic Farm Waste, Inc., to own and lease the anaerobic farm waste disposal equipment. The officers of our company are also the principal officers of the subsidiary company. We have had a number of inquiries from major landfill operators and are currently working with a major landfill company that is interested in installing our units on several of their landfills. This is in addition to the CO2 separator equipment RTC would like for us to install on more of their landfill sites. Competition ----------- Live tissue bonding equipment. We have the only equipment in the world that bonds live tissues with little or no scarring. We are in competition only with older surgical methods of closing tissue openings. Anaerobic farm waste disposal plants. There are ten companies that offer various types of anaerobic systems in the U.S. Based upon our experience in the industry, it is our belief that none of these systems processes the manure and water to the extent of the Ukraine-made plant. The plant now in operation in Ukraine is the product of years of experience in designing and building various types of anaerobic plants. It is our belief that the design now in operation will prove to be the most effective and economical for anaerobically processing animal wastes. CO2 Separator. Numerous companies make CO2 separators in the U.S. but, based upon our experience in the industry, we believe none will be able to compete with the quality of our separators or with our price. It is our observation that their prices are multiples of what we believe we will be able to charge for our plants. Their separators produce no better than 75 to 90 percent pure methane; based on the CO2 separator plants in operation in Ukraine, we believe ours will produce 98-percent pure methane. Patents, Trademarks and Licenses ----------------------------------- The live tissue bonding equipment is the subject of patents and patent applications filed by the Ukraine inventor in the Ukraine, the U.S., and other countries. The patents and the patent applications for the U.S., the European Patent Convention, Australia, Canada and Japan have been assigned to us. The Australia patent has been issued. 10

The anaerobic farm-waste disposal equipment was patented in U.S.S.R. in 1991 but is not the subject of any patent application filed in the U.S. The CO2 separator equipment is not the subject of any existing patent; the technology has been known for more than 30 years. We have been assigned the exclusive world rights to license, manufacture, market, and distribute both the anaerobic farm waste disposal equipment and the CO2 separator equipment. We will pay a five percent royalty to the Ukrainians when the equipment is installed and fully operational based on the adjusted retail price of the equipment. Government Approval and Regulations -------------------------------------- The live tissue bonding equipment must obtain the approval of the Federal Drug Administration before it can be sold to be used on humans in the U.S. The anaerobic farm waste disposal plants and the CO2 separator plants require no governmental approval before being placed into use, but the results of their usage are subject to the oversight authority of the Environmental Protection Agency. Research and Development -------------------------- During 2002, we expended no funds on research and development. Cost of Compliance with Environmental Laws ----------------------------------------------- Our anaerobic farm waste disposal plants are designed to dispose of farm waste in a manner that meets all environmental regulations. The same is true with regard to our CO2 separator plants. All costs of complying with environmental regulations are costs of the projects and reduce our share of the gross revenue produced from the installation and use of our equipment. Seasonality ----------- There is no seasonal aspect of our business. Employees --------- We employ three persons full time in the U.S. and two persons full time in Kiev, Ukraine. ITEM 2.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Texas Department of Securities investigated our sale of ownership interests in CSMG Gastech LLC, the entity we created to assist our financing of our share of the costs of the CO2 separator projects with Resource Technology Corporation or other entities. The Texas enforcement agency took the position that we were selling securities by means of representations that omitted to state a material fact - that Resource Technology Corporation is a chapter 11 debtor. We were asked to make a rescission offer to all investors. We did so. Two investors accepted the rescission offer, and we returned to them their $10,000 investments. We have heard nothing further from the Texas Department of Securities. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The company's Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. Its symbol is "CTUM," or, depending upon the Internet service that quotes Bulletin Board stocks, CTUM.OB. We filed a 1934 Exchange Act registration statement with the Commission that became effective November 15, 1999. However, our financial statements did not meet the U.S. GAAP requirements, and our stock was "demoted" to the Pink Sheets until January 16, 2003, when the SEC staff accepted our revised financial statements and we became eligible again to be quoted on the Bulletin Board. Our difficulties with our financial statements were caused by the accounting practices in Ukraine that had not been reconciled with U.S. GAAP. Our common stock first traded on April 21, 1998. The range of high and low bid information for our Common Stock is set forth below. The source of this information is the Pink Sheets.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto. It is qualified in its entirety by the foregoing and by more detailed financial information appearing elsewhere. See "Financial Statements." Sales ----- We had revenues of $171 in FY 2002 compared with revenues of $100 in FY 2001. We did report income of $130,825 in FY 2001 and a loss of $47,120 in FY 2002 as our 33.3 percent interest in the income of an unconsolidated subsidiary, United Engineering Company, a Ukraine company that represents a joint venture between us and several Ukraine entities. This income and loss represent our share of the profits and losses from the missile site conversion activities of United Engineering Company. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ------------------------------------------------ We reduced our general and administrative expenses from $1,683,101 in FY 2001 to $977,174 during FY 2002. The activities which these expenses were intended to benefit were our anaerobic farm-waste disposal equipment project, our carbon dioxide separator project and our human tissue bonding project. The first two of these projects - both of which are based upon excellent Ukraine-developed equipment that can be manufactured in Ukraine, brought to the U.S. and installed at considerable savings to the employment of U.S. equipment of comparable or inferior quality - represent a substantial part of our business plan for the future. Net Loss --------- We reduced our fiscal year 2001 net loss of $1,594,391, or $0.32 a share, to a net loss of $1,052,773 in FY 2002, or $0.16 a share. There had been a significant increase in our operations in 2001 in our three projects - our tissue bonding project, our anaerobic farm waste project and our CO2 separator project. Tissue Bonding Project. The Paton Institute in Ukraine received approval from the Ukraine Ministry of Health for doctors to use the tissue bonding technology during surgeries in hospitals in Ukraine. Paton manufactures the prototype equipment used in the procedure. Surgeons in Ukraine commenced using this technology during regular surgical procedures. To date we have successfully completed more than 1,000 human surgeries using the technology and formed an International Advisory Council for the project. We have interested a Baltimore, Maryland financial services company in assisting us in financing the Live Tissue Bonding Project, both in its applications in Ukraine and in the U.S. A representative traveled to Ukraine, met with the Paton Institute, and returned to the U.S. interested in moving forward with us. Anaerobic Farm Waste Project. We expect contracts to be executed during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003. We have met resistance from swine, 15
ARS21st Page of 55TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st
dairy and poultry farmers in our efforts to sell our farm waste anaerobic plant, due to the long period of time required for small farms to recover the costs of the plant and due to falling producer prices in these industries. Our efforts at this time are concentrated on building a demonstration plant with Poultry Growers of Oklahoma. The growers are working with the Oklahoma Agriculture Commission in coordination with Anaerobic Farm Waste, Inc. for a loan grant to do an engineering and marketing feasibility study of building a plant in Southeast Oklahoma. Also, we have retained a Native American consultant to negotiate an arrangement with the Native American tribes for a grant from the U.S. Corps of Engineers to do a feasibility study for building an anaerobic plant in Northeastern Oklahoma. The resolution has been drawn but not signed as of this date. CO2 Separator Project. Our CO2 separator plant has been installed at the Chastang Landfill near Mobile, Alabama and is being tested for delivery to a pipeline of natural gas obtained from 70 wells drilled on the landfill. Liquidity and Outlook ----------------------- We have never operated at a profit. We were able to stay in operation during 2002 only from the proceeds of $37,500 from the sale of common stock, an increase in Notes Payable of $589,072, the issuance of common stock in exchange for consulting services valued at $181,250 and the issuance of common stock as payment of $318,687 in interest on notes payable to individuals. Management believes our prospects for financial liquidity depend upon the following: - obtaining contracts for the leasing of our anaerobic farm waste equipment; - obtaining contracts for the joint venturing of our CO2 separator; - the sale of capital stock in either our company or our subsidiary, Anaerobic Farm Waste, Inc.; and - loans to finance the purchase of anaerobic farm waste units and CO2 separators. At this time, we have not identified the sources for additional equity capital. 16

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the Shareholders and Board of Directors Consortium Service Management Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Consortium Service Management Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholder's equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits 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. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Consortium Service Management Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated 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 has suffered recurring losses from operations that raises 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 not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ Gary Skibicki Gary Skibicki, CPA, PC Oklahoma City, Oklahoma April 8, 2003 18

CONSORTIUM SERVICE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002, DECEMBER 31, 2001 NOTE 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations Consortium Service Management Group, Inc. (the "Company"), a Texas corporation, was incorporated on November 17, 1992. The planned operations of the Company are to develop business and investment opportunities worldwide by licensing, marketing and distributing rights in advanced technologies developed primarily in the Ukraine. The technologies involve live tissue bonding, CO2 (carbon dioxide) separation of landfill gas and anaerobic animal waste disposal. The live tissue bonding focuses on bonding living soft biological tissue used in surgical procedures that eliminates the need for sutures, staples, sealants or glues. The Company has an agreement with the E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding of the Ukraine National Academy of Sciences and International Association of Welding and owns the exclusive world rights on licensing, patenting, manufacturing, development and distribution of this technology. The live biological tissue bonding process is a U.S. and international patent pending technology approved by the Ukraine Ministry of Health for human surgical procedures. The Company owned carbon dioxide separator technology, also developed in the Ukraine, promotes the economical separation of CO2 gas from methane gas emanating from landfills. Landfills generate a commingled mixture of methane and carbon dioxide gas which prevents it from being commercially sold as fuel. The Ukrainian technology has developed an economical CO2 separator that isolates methane gas to the extent that it can be sold to utility companies as well as other industrial and commercial customers with the first installation beginning in 2002 in Mobile, Alabama with completion estimated to be in the second quarter of 2003. Carbon dioxide separator equipment exists in the U.S. however it is more expensive than Ukrainian technology necessitating methane gas be burned or flared on site for environmental purposes as opposed to being sold for fuel. At the end of December 2002 the Company spent $1,159,788 on CO2 separator equipment all of which is paid except $92,474 still owed to Sumy Frunze Machine Building Science and Production Association in the Ukraine. At December 31, 2002 equipment installation was still in process, and in 2003 approximately $300,000 in additional installation costs will be incurred before operations begin which the company anticipates will be in the second quarter of the year. The third technology developed in the Ukraine is an anaerobic animal waste process that via a closed loop system eliminates animal waste, odors and microorganisms. The Company owns the exclusive marketing and distribution rights for this equipment. A by-product of this process is an organic fertilizer that will also be marketed in the U.S. and Canada in accord with rights owned by the Company. The Company does not internally separate financial information including results of operations by segments such as geographic areas, products, major customers or operating segments. With the major component of income being from the earnings of United Engineering Company ("UEC"), management considers it impractical to further segment financial information. Investments in companies in which the Company has an equity interest of at least 20% are accounted for under the equity method. Under this method the Company records its share of income or losses as Interest In Income, or Losses of Unconsolidated Companies with corresponding increases or decreases in the investment account. Investments in which the Company has a controlling financial interest represented by either direct or indirect controlling interest (more than 50%) are consolidated.

CONSORTIUM SERVICE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002, DECEMBER 31, 2001 Loss Per Share The computation of loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. The Company had net losses of $1,052,773 in 2002 and $1,594,391 in 2001 and accordingly basic and diluted earnings per share are the same because any dilutive or potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive. Issuance of Shares for Services and Interest Valuation of shares for services and interest is based on the fair market value of services and the stated interest rates on notes payable. In 2002 244,764 shares were issued in exchange for $181,250 in management and marketing services. The cost of the services has been charged to operations and additional paid in capital has been increased by $181,005 representing the excess of the cost of the services over the par value of the common stock issued. Also in 2002 the Company issued 430,361 shares of common stock for interest on notes payable to shareholders with the cost charged to operations, and additional paid in capital increased by $318,257 representing the excess of the interest expense over the par value of the common stock issued. In 2001 the Company exchanged 1,135,000 shares of common stock for $756,690 in compensation expense charged to operations, and additional paid in capital increased by the excess of compensation expense over the par value of the common stock issued, $755,555. Preferred Stock On December 28, 1995 the Company authorized the issuance of 75,669 shares of Series A preferred stock, $10.00 face amount, .001 par value which pays a cumulative dividend on net corporate profit equal to 8% of the face amount of the outstanding stock. If the Company does not realize profits, preferred stock dividends are not accruable. Such preferred Series A stock is preferred over all common stock in the event of corporate liquidation and dissolution to the extent of its unredeemed face amount. On September 29, 2000 the Board of Directors approved converting all preferred shares outstanding to common stock. In 2001 75,669 preferred shares were converted to 1,210,704 common shares as compensation for unpaid services recorded at $756,690 in compensation expense with corresponding entries to common stock and paid in capital. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the following statements of financial accounting standards ("SFAS"). Adoption of these standards did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or on discloses within the financial statements. (1) SFAS No 142 - Goodwill and Intangible Assets (2) SFAS No 143 - Retirement of Tangible Long Lived Assets (3) SFAS No 144 - Impairment on Disposal of Long Lived Assets 26

CONSORTIUM SERVICE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002, DECEMBER 31, 2001 During 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the following Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS"). Adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or on disclosures within the financial statements. (1) SFAS No 141 - Business Combinations Income Taxes The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." (See Note 3) NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSIDERATIONS RELATED TO CONTINUED EXISTENCE (GOING CONCERN) The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of $1,052,773 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $1,594,391 for the year ended December 31, 2001 and these factors combined with prior year net losses raises substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to obtain debt and/or equity financing and achieve profitable operations. The Company's management intends to raise additional operating funds through equity and/or debt offerings and the sale of technologies. However, there can be no assurance management will be successful in its endeavors. The possible consequences of not obtaining additional funds either through equity offerings, debt offerings, or sale of technologies is that there will not be sufficient money to fund the capital projects required to earn long term revenues. A major component of planned future operations involves the construction of animal waste and disposal facilities for either sale and/or lease and these undertakings are only possible from outside financing. In 2002 the company began carbon dioxide separator equipment installation at the Chastain landfill in Mobile, Alabama. By the end of 2002 the Company invested $1,159,788 in Ukraine manufactured equipment of which $92,474 was unpaid at December 31, 2002. The Company expects to spend an estimated additional $300,000 in 2003 to complete the installation and debugging process. Although this technology has proven successful in Ukraine it is new to the United States making it unclear if further funding beyond this amount will be necessary. The possible consequences of not obtaining additional financing for either farm waste disposal, tissue bonding research, and/or carbon dioxide projects are operations ceasing resulting in liquidation of the Company. NOTE 3 INCOME TAXES The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. With the Company not generating taxable income since inception, no provision for income taxes has been provided. At December 31, 2002 net operating loss carryforward will exceed $2,000,000 making it reasonably uncertain if any of these loss carryforwards will result in tax benefits. NOTE 4 INVESTMENT - UNITED ENGINEERING COMPANY At December 31, 1999 the Company was a 50% owner of UEC, a Ukraine and U.S. joint stock company registered under the laws of Ukraine. The other 50% of UEC's 27

CONSORTIUM SERVICE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002, DECEMBER 31, 2001 equity were owned by several Ukrainian organizations one of which was the State Property Fund of Ukraine. All UEC decisions require a 75% shareholder vote. UEC is a Ukraine closed joint stock company with foreign investment, the Company being the foreign investor. UEC holds a Ukraine license to perform classified and secret construction works relating to projects that are in the Ukraine national security sector. To complete its authorized capital during the year ending December 31, 2000, approximately 9 UEC employees were given the opportunity to purchase stock and paid 26,100 gryvna (approximately $4,760 U.S. dollars) for 5,000 shares. The sale of stock to its employees completed the full complement of its 20,000 registered shares that was authorized by UEC with the Company owning 6,666 shares or 33.3% ownership. For the year ended December 31, 2002 UEC had $1,046,000 in assets and $105,000 in liabilities for a net worth of $941,000 in U.S. dollars. For the year ended December 31, 2001 UEC had revenues of $1,382,000 in assets and $268,000 in liabilities for a net worth of $1,114,000 in U.S. dollars. A portion of investment, which is included in the UEC investment account, is considered a Founders Fund and has special priority in the event of liquidation. In 1994 the Company made its original investment in UEC which included contributing $73,843 in autos, equipment and furniture. The Company and UEC agreed that in the event of UEC liquidating, $73,843 would be repaid to the Company in preference to all creditors. As an incentive to encourage foreign investment, the Ukraine government has guaranteed repayment if, upon liquidation, UEC has insufficient funds to do so. This special funding arrangement continues to exist but for presentation purposes is included as part of the UEC investment account on the balance sheet. NOTE 5 CSMG GASTECH, LLC In 2001 CSMG Gastech, LLC was formed in which the Company owns 89.7% interest. The consolidated financial statements show $206,000 in Membership Capital representing the investment of 8 members. Originally 10 membership interests were sold but, due to an inquiry by the Texas Security Commission, each investor was given the opportunity to rescind their investment. Two memberships were rescinded requiring two $10,000 capital contributions with interest to be returned. It was alleged that membership interests were sold without disclosing that Resource Technology Corporation, the company owing landfill contracts at CO2 installation sites, was in chapter 11 business reorganization. Both the Company and the Texas Securities Commission contacted all investors and eight memberships reaffirming their investments. NOTE 6 NOTES PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDERS Notes to shareholders consist of 48 short-term (generally one year) interest bearing unsecured notes with varying maturity dates the most common interest rate being 11% per annum on the unpaid balance. On December 31, 2002 notes payable to shareholders totaled $2,492,039 with interest expense of $359,879 as follows: [Download Table] a. Cash paid to noteholders $ 13,930 b. Common stock issued for interest 318,687 c.

Specifically, four notes with original principals of $362,000, $100,000, $53,000 and $115,000 (total $630,000) all came due in 2002 and the Company's attorney is currently in negotiations with Stonegate to restructure a repayment schedule. At the date of the audit a revised payment schedule on restructuring agreement has not been finalized. 28
