Item 1. Description of Business.

        (a) Business Development

        Surgical Safety Products, Inc. (the "Company" or "Surgical") is
incorporated in the State of New York and qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation in the State of Florida. Surgical Safety Products, Inc. originally
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on May 15, 1992. On
November 28, 1994 the Company merged into Sheffeld Acres Inc., a New York
corporation, which had approximately 1,100 shareholders, but had never commenced
operations. Although Sheffeld Acres, Inc. was technically the surviving entity,
the Company changed its name after the merger to Surgical Safety Products, Inc.
Articles of Merger were filed with the State of Florida on October 12, 1994 and
a Certificate of Merger was filed with the State of New York on February 8,
1995. The Company filed to do business as a foreign corporation on April 11,
1995 in the State of Florida. The Company's Common Stock is quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board under the symbol "SSPD". The Company's corporate mailing address
is 8374 Market Street, Number 439, Bradenton, Florida 34202, its telephone
number is (941) 360-3039 and its facsimile number is (941) 360-3039.

        The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries which includes; C5 Health,
Inc., a private Delaware corporation and Power3 Medical, Inc., a private Nevada
corporation. Power3 Medical, Inc. was formed on March 31, 2003 and as described
following as a re-incorporation and merger into and with the Company and shall
be the name of the surviving entity.

        General

The Company's overall mission is the research, development, production and
distribution of innovative products and services for healthcare. Consisting of
both traditional products and innovative business-to-business e-solutions, the
common goal is a safer and more efficient environment for healthcare workers,
manufacturers and patients. Originally formed as a medical device company,
Surgical shifted focus to being an e-company when the Company's management
recognized an untapped market niche: responding to the critical need for
immediate communication and access to information in healthcare.

The Company was relatively inactive during much of 2002 as it sought a merger
partner and/or working capital to carry out its business plan. The Company
currently has a single product which accounts for all of its revenue generating
operations. SutureMate(R), a patented, disposable, surgical assist device, was
initially introduced in 1993. Its unique design facilitates the highly
recommended one-handed suturing technique, which is advocated by occupational
safety experts. SutureMate(R) allows the surgeon to use a safer, more efficient
method of surgical stitching. The product has features, which include a foam
needle-cushion, and a suture cutting slot.



                                       5


        The Company is seeking to expand its business through the acquisition of
additional products or additional lines of business. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in its efforts.

The Company has other products including patented medical devices and other
non-patented digital products which to date have not been fully developed and
have not created significant revenue. It is anticipated by the Company's
management that these products will never be developed to a state of commercial
significance or viability.

        Corporate Developments

        In December 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with an
investment-banking firm (lender) to obtain a convertible secured line of credit
in the amount of $5,000,000. On February 7, 2001, the Company executed a loan
cancellation and settlement agreement effectively terminating the line of credit
agreement. Pursuant to the termination agreement, the remaining balance of the
debt as of such time was to continue to accrue interest at 8% until the notes
and related accrued interest were fully converted. At December 31, 2001, the
balance of the notes and accrued interest was $341,442; this amount, and
additional interest of $19,893 earned by the lender in 2002, was converted to
843,560 shares of the Company's common stock on December 15, 2002.
Simultaneously, the note was returned to the Company thereby terminating all
related rights and obligations (including the rights of the lender to exercise
certain warrants that had been granted during the term of the loan).

        On May 22, 2001, C5 Health, Inc., now a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, acquired certain assets from Millennium Health Communications, Inc.
(MHC) including furniture and fixtures, computer equipment, and approximately
315 domain names under an asset purchase agreement that was amended on September
1, 2001. Under the agreement with MHC, payment for the acquired assets was made
by the issuance of two (2) secured promissory notes under which title to the
acquired assets is subject to a security interest held by MHC. The notes were in
the face amount of $500,000 and $460,000 and the due date had been extended to
December 31, 2002. MHC's corporate status in Virginia and Delaware was revoked
in 2002 and the registered agent of record has officially resigned. Although the
Company made diligent efforts to contact MHC for final resolution of the
outstanding notes, no persons would represent MHC in these matters, and there is
no remaining entity in which to transact business, therefore the Company
considers these notes to be extinguished effective December 31, 2002. The
Company has recorded these extinguishments as increases in additional paid-in
capital because of the relationship between the prior owners of Millennium and
certain stockholders of the Company.

        In May 2002, the Company entered a lease expiring May 2006 for its
corporate offices for a monthly lease obligation of $4,500. This lease was
terminated on October 26, 2002 and all future obligations were released in
exchange for a promissory note totaling $33,009, which included termination and
all related fees. The promissory note is due October 29, 2003 and accrues
interest a 6% per annum.



                                       6


        Effective June 1, 2001, the board of directors passed a resolution
regarding the employment arrangement with Dr. Swor. The board resolved that such
arrangement be for a period of five (5) years at an annual salary of $100,000
per year. Said salary may be accumulated by Dr. Swor if necessary and may be
converted into shares of the Company's Common Stock at his election. For the
first year, said salary may be converted at 75% of the fair market value on June
1, 2001. Dr. Swor was granted the opportunity to convert all accrued but unpaid
salary due him through May 31, 2001 at the closing bid price on June 1, 2001.
Dr. Swor's accrued but unpaid salary amounted to $93,150 and this was converted
into 4,657,500 shares of restricted Common Stock based upon the applicable price
on June 1, 2001. Under this arrangement, Dr. Swor accrued $58,333 in salaries in
2001 and $25,000 in the first quarter of 2002, both of which amounts remain
unpaid and are presently due to the former officer and director. Dr. Swor turned
the majority of his efforts to other business activities and the arrangement
ended effective March 31, 2002. Dr. Swor officially relinquished his Acting CEO
title to Timothy S. Novak August 8, 2002, and subsequently resigned from the
board of directors in February 2003.

        On August 12, 2002 and effective June 1, 2002, the board of directors
passed a resolution regarding employment arrangement with its newly appointed
chief executive officer, Timothy S. Novak and chief financial officer, R. Paul
Gray. The Board resolved that such arrangement be for an annual salary of
$150,000 for each officer. The agreements may be terminated for any reason; if
the Company elects to do so without cause, then the officers will be entitled to
compensation and benefits for a period of ninety days. Under these agreements
the officers had accrued $125,000 as of March 31, 2003, which remains unpaid. On
March 31, 2003, each officer converted $100,000 of this accrued and unpaid
salary in consideration for issuance of preferred stock as described following.

        On March 31, 2003, the Company's board of directors authorized and approved
several resolutions. These resolutions include: The creation of a 2003 Stock
Compensation Plan and filing of Form S-8 to register the shares under the 2003
Stock Compensation Plan, the authorization of a Series A Preferred Stock
consisting of 4,000,000 shares, issuance of 2,660,000 of Series A Preferred
Stock in consideration of accrued and unpaid salary totaling $200,000 to
officer's Tim Novak and Paul Gray of the Company, issuance of 1,330,000 of
Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of $100,000 cash by a private investor
and shareholder of the Company, the incorporation of a subsidiary to be known as
Power3 Medical, Inc. which has been incorporated under the laws of the state of
Nevada as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company has entered a
merger agreement with and into its wholly owned subsidiary known as Power3
Medical, Inc. expected to be effective May 19, 2003. These actions have been
fully described and reported in a pre 14c filing made to the Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 7, 2003 as incorporated by reference into this
document.

        On March 31, 2003 the Company entered a series of consultant relationships
to assist in business development and company and product acquisitions. These
consultant agreements are encompassed in the 2003 Stock Compensation Plan as



                                       7


described in preceding paragraph. These consultants will receive warrants for
8,000,000 shares of common stock registered under a contemplated S-8 filing
described above.


        The Company signed a letter of intent with Scan America USA, Inc. on July
11, 2002 to affect a 50/50 merger. Scan America USA, Inc., a private Florida
corporation is a provider of electron beam tomography (EBT) technology and has a
mobile EBT scanner presently deployed. This letter of intent was subsequently
terminated in the first quarter of 2003.

        In 2002, Dr. Robert Lyles, David Swor, William Danielczyk and James Stuart
resigned from the board of directors. Timothy S. Novak was elected chairman of
the board replacing Mr. Danielczyk and CEO replacing Dr. Swor who was the acting
CEO . Dr. Swor resigned from the board of directors in Feb 2003. Mr. Gray moved
from acting Chief Financial Officer to Chief Financial Officer on August 12,
2002.

        During 2002, Reli-Communications, Inc., a private Virginia corporation
which was substantially controlled by William P. Danielczyk, former board
chairman of the Company, invested a total of $ $96,500 in the Company for which
the Company issued 3,216,000 shares of its common stock for this purchase along
with 3,507,000 shares issued for previously subscribed common stock.

        At December 31, 2002, the Company was indebted to Dr. Swor for $41,563 of
advances he made on behalf of the Company that bear interest at the fixed rate
of 10% per annum that are due on demand. In addition, the Company is indebted to
Dr. Swor in the amount of $101,700 representing advances to the Company. These
advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand.

        At December 31, 2002, unsecured promissory notes were due to Mr. Novak in
the amount of $22,000 and Mr. Gray in the amount of $17,000. These notes accrue
interest at 9.5% per annum are unsecured and are due on demand.

        At December 31, 2002, the Company owed Dr. Swor accrued salary of $83,333,
Mr. Novak accrued salary $145,000, Mr. Gray accrued salary of $87,500 and a
former officer of C5 Health, Inc. $30,000 in accrued salary

        (b) Business of Issuer.

In the last several years, the Company had maintained several operating
divisions to encompas their various products and services. These included an
Information Systems Division and Medical Products Division. These are no longer
distinct divisions as most of the products are no longer considered commercially
viable by management. The only remaining viable product is SutureMate as
discussed following.


                                       8


        SutureMate(R)

        SutureMate(R), a patented, disposable, surgical assist device, was
initially introduced in 1993. Its unique design facilitates the highly
recommended one-handed suturing technique which is advocated by occupational
safety experts. When one-handed suturing is not used, extra steps are required
by the surgeon or the assistant in cutting the needle free of the suture thread
and extra time and hand movements are required of the surgeon in manually
adjusting needles while using a needle holder in most suturing processes.
SutureMate(R)allows the surgeon to use a safer, more efficient method of
surgical stitching. The product has features which include a foam
needle-cushion, and a suture cutting slot.

        SutureMate(R)was re-designed in late 1998 and has been re-released since
demand has increased due to statutory changes relating to needlestick injuries.
Legislation has been adopted at both the federal and state level. An overview of
state needle safety legislation can be viewed at www.cdc.gov/niosh/ndl-law.html.
This legislation essentially requires state agencies with employees at risk to
implement needleless systems and sharps with engineered sharps injury protection
in order to prevent the spread of bloodborne pathogens in the workplace.

        The product was re-engineered and updated after feedback from over 4,000
surgeons and surgical technologists who used or reviewed the product since its
inception. As a result of the re-design, the Company believes that there are new
clinical advantages and that the product can be produced at a significantly
lower manufacturing cost. These beliefs are based on the fact that the re-design
includes a tent-like configuration with a hidden cutting device contained
between the adhesive base and the holding device. This allows the surgeon to
separate the needle from the suture without a scrub nurse intervening with a
scissor. The cost reduction will result from the fact that the original version
cost approximately $6.00 per unit while the new version costs approximately
$1.10 per unit including packaging and sterilization, allowing it to be marketed
in the $4 to $6 range which is more in keeping with pricing for a disposable
product. Due to its acceptance by user and quality standards, SutureMate(R)is a
"proven" product that complies with current legislation.

        On Feb 13, 2001, the Company announced an agreement with DeRoyal
Industries, Inc. ("DeRoyal")to distribute SutureMate(R)worldwide. DeRoyal is the
largest privately held healthcare supplier of safety devices with over 250 sales
representatives worldwide. Formed in 1973, DeRoyal is a international,
vertically-integrated supplier of institutional and consumer healthcare products
and services, with 27 subsidiaries and affiliates in seven states (California,
Florida, Georgia, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia) and ten
countries (Canada, Costa Rica, England, Estonia, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the
Netherlands, Sweden and the United States). DeRoyal's four business units, Acute
Care, Patient Care, Wound Care and OEM (original equipment manufacturer) produce
more than 25,000 products, including: rehabilitation and therapy products,
sports medicine supports, orthopedic bracing and supports, fiberglass and
plaster casting; wound care dressings; unitized surgical delivery systems,
including TracePak and custom procedural trays; surgical accessories; neonatal,
labor and delivery products; angiographic, endoscopic, anesthesia and


                                       9



temperature monitoring products; as well as manufacturing services in plastics,
textiles, electrical manufacturing, converting and sterilization. DeRoyal
introduced the re-designated SutureMate(R)at AORN in March, placed an order for
8,000 units for which the Company was paid when it made delivery in May 2001.
DeRoyal carries SutureMate(R)in its surgical safety assessory line, which is
being highly promoted in the current environment of blood borne pathogen concern
and increased safety legislation. In 2002, orders for SutureMate totaled
approximately 10,000 units and 5,000 units in the 1st quarter of 2003.

        The Company continues to ship this product. Currently, the re-designed
SutureMate(R)is manufactured by the Hansen Plastic Division of Tuthill
Corporation at their plant located in Clearwater, Florida ("Tuthill"). The
Company is continuing the process of negotiating additional manufacturing
sources and original equipment manufacturer sales.

Business Strategy

        The Company's business strategy, which is dependent upon obtaining
sufficient additional financing, is to enhance the commercialization of its
existing product and to aggressively look for appropriate product and company
acquisitions. The Company remains committed to providing innovative products and
services within the healthcare industry. The Company's current revenues are
based soley upon upon the sale of SutureMate(R). The Company's revenues are
dependent on the volume of sales from its products.

        Revenues from sales are recognized in the period in which sales are made.
The Company's gross profit margin will be determined in part by its ability to
estimate and control direct costs of manufacturing and its ability to
incorporate such costs in the price charged to clients.

Sales and Marketing

Markets

        The primary medical industry markets include hospitals, healthcare
facilities, surgeons, nurses, and technologists in procedure-oriented
specialties, including obstetricians, dentists, emergency room personnel and
other medical professionals.

        The potential global market for Surgical's products (devices and
information systems) is estimated at over $1.3 billion.

        The Company believes that the criteria for another appropriate strategic
partner for an alliance with the Company would have a worldwide presence,
maintain a dedicated, highly trained sales force with access to the operating
room, be a respected and an acknowledged leader in the industry, be among the
Fortune 500 companies or equivalent and have an interest in diversification of
its existing product lines.



                                       10


Distribution of Products

        SutureMate(R)is currently the Company's only product available in the
marketplace.

        The arrangement with DeRoyal provides for the worldwide distribution of
SutureMate(R). An order of 10,000 pieces was made in 2002 and in the 1st Quarter
2003, DeRoyal placed an order for 5,000 pieces.

Competition

        There is intense competition in the markets in which the Company engages in
business. However, the Company believes that there is relatively little
competition for its products, developed and undeveloped, at this time.

        Notwithstanding its innovative product line, there are many major companies
which could compete with the Company due to their size and market share in the
medical products area. The Company believes that these major companies will
continue their efforts to develop and market competitive devices and products.

        There is intense competition in sales of products for use in gynecological,
spinal, vascular, cardiovascular, interventional cardiology, breast biopsy,
urologic, orthopedic and oncological procedures. A broad range of companies,
presently offer products or are developing products for the use in such
procedures. Many of these companies have significantly greater capital than the
Company and are expected to devote substantial resources to the development of
newer technologies, which would be competitive with products, which the Company
may offer. There are also a number of smaller companies, which offer such
products which present additional competition.

        The Company's principal methods of competing are the development of
innovative products, the performance and breadth of its products, its
technically trained sales force, and its educational services, including
sponsorship of training programs. Most of the Company's potential major
competitors have greater financial resources than the Company. Some of its
potential competitors have engaged in substantial price discounting and other
significant efforts to gain market share, including bundled contracts for a wide
variety of healthcare products with group purchasing organizations. In the
current healthcare environment, cost containment has become a significant factor
in purchasing decisions by hospitals. Additional cost effectiveness was one of
the principle factors in the redesign of SutureMate(R).

        Surgical currently has a limited sales force. However, at such time as the
Company has an suitable strategic partner and adequate funding, it intents to
train its sale for on an ongoing basis to focus on healthcare worker safety
issues.

        The Company believes that the advantages of its various products and its



                                       11



customer assistance programs will continue to provide the best value to its
customers. However, there is considerable competition in the industry and no
assurance can be given as to the Company's competitive position. The impact of
competition will likely have an effect on sales volumes and on prices charged by
the Company. In addition, increased cost consciousness has revived competition
from reusable instruments to some extent. The Company believes that single use
instruments are safer and more cost efficient for hospitals and the healthcare
system than reusable instruments, but it cannot predict the extent to which
reusable instruments will competitively impact the Company.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

        Raw materials necessary for the manufacturer of parts, components and
packaging supplies for all of the Company's products manufactured by the Medical
Products Division are readily available from numerous third-party suppliers.

        The Company does not rely on any other principal suppliers for any of its
raw materials. However, with regard to SutureMate(R), the Company has received a
price quotation from Tuthill Plastics, Inc. for the manufacture of the
redesigned SutureMate(R).

Dependence on Major Customers

        SutureMate(R)sales are currently principally reliant upon DeRoyal and
in-house distribution and re-establishment of various distribution arrangements
for generating revenues for this product. Changes in state laws have increased
the attractiveness of this product.

        Subject to the availability of additional funding, of which there can be no
assurance, the Company believes that it can increase its customer base so that
the loss of any one client will not adversely impact upon the financial
condition of Surgical.

Research and Development

        The Company believes that research and development is an important factor
in its future growth. In the past, the Company engaged in extensive product
research and development and it has at least four (4) additional products for
the medical and healthcare community, all of which are in various stages of
development, from prototype to patent. Subject to the availability of additional
funding, the Company again may devote a substantial amount of time to the
research and development of products within distinct product lines.
Substantially all of the products in research and development have been
designed, drawn, had preliminary market research conducted and have been
submitted for review to the Company's patent counsel.

        As a natural by-product of an active research and development department,
some product concepts have been generated which do not fit the Company's chosen
focus. Several surgical and obstetrical devices have been designed and either
will be licensed or sold outright to appropriate corporate entities.




                                       12


Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks

        Patents are significant to the conduct of the Company's business. The
Company owns four (4) patents on two (2) products; U. S. Patent No. 4,969,893
issued on November 13, 1990, U. S. Patent No.'s Des. 353,672 issued on December
20, 1994 and U.S. Patent No. 5,385,569 issued on January 31, 1995, each for
SutureMate(R)and United States Patent No. 5,364,375, was issued on November 15,
1994 for Prostasert?. Dr. Swor was the inventor who originally secured the
patents which he later assigned to the Company in exchange for stock.

        On June 1, 1998, the Company filed for two (2) patents on the OASiS system
which includes propriety aspects of the software, algorithms and reports, as
well as the inservice training modules which are owned by the Company. Neither
of these patents have been issued to date and the applications are still
pending.

        The Company has an extensive library of copyrighted educational and
training material related to occupational safety and surgical techniques. These
include the Surgical Safety Manual published in 1994, which was revised in 1996.

        The Company filed on July 1, 1993 for trademark registration with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office for SutureMate(R). This trademark was
registered on April 5, 1994.

Governmental Regulation

FDA Approval

        Regulation by governmental authorities in the United States and foreign
countries is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing
of the Company's proposed products and services and in its ongoing research and
product development activities. It is anticipated that virtually all of the
products developed by the Company's Medical Products Division will require
regulatory approval by governmental agencies prior to commercialization.

        It is expected that many of the Company's products, as presently
contemplated, will be regulated as medical devices. Prior to entering commercial
distribution, all medical devices must undergo FDA review under one or two basic
review procedures: a Section 510(K) premarket notification ("510(K)") or a
premarket approval application ("PMA"). In the past, the Company's products have
been cleared by the FDA under the 501(K) expedited form of pre-market review or
have not required FDA approval.

        To the extent the Company develops products for use in more advanced
surgical procedures, the regulatory process may be more complex and time
consuming. Some of the Company's potential future products may require lengthy
human clinical trials and the PMA application relating to class III medical
devices. The Company has no reason to believe that it will not be able to obtain
regulatory approval for its products, to the extent efficacy, safety and other



                                       13


standards can be demonstrated, but the lengthy approval process will require
additional capital (of which there is no assurance that the Company). During any
review period, there is the risk of entry by competitors and risk of changes in
the marketplace prior to market approvals being obtained.

        Overseas, the degree of government regulation affecting the Company varies
considerably among countries, ranging from stringent testing and approval
procedures in certain locations to simple registration procedures in others,
while in some countries there is virtually no regulation of the sale of the
Company's products. In the past, when the Company had active foreign
distribution agreements, it had not encountered material delays or unusual
regulatory impediments in marketing its products internationally. Establishment
of uniform regulations for European Economic Area nations took place on January
1, 1995. These regulations subject the Company to a single regulatory scheme for
all of the participating countries. Once the Company's domestic channels are
satisfied, Surgical will commence its program for meeting regulatory
requirements internationally. The Company expects that it will be able to market
its products in Europe with a single registration applicable to all
participating countries. The Company also is establishing procedures to respond
to various local regulatory requirements existing in all other international
markets in which it intends to market its products should adequate financing be
available.

OSHA Mandatory Reporting of Illness and Injury

        Federal rules administered by the OSHA require healthcare workers to report
if they have been accidentally stuck with a needle previously used by a patient,
or splashed by blood or bodily fluids.

        On February 11, 1997, in the Federal Register, OSHA issued a final rule,
effective March 13, 1997, that amended the Occupational Injury and Illness
Reporting Regulation (29 CFR Part 1904) established in 1971. Under the 1971
regulation, employers were required to collect and maintain injury and illness
data and have it available for OSHA to examine when they came on site for an
inspection. It was determined that OSHA needed a separate provision for
collection of data by mail.

        The final rule requires, employers, upon request, to report to OSHA their
illness and injury data, in addition to the number of workers and the number of
hours worked in a designated period. It establishes a mechanism for OSHA to
conduct an annual survey of ten (10) or more employers by mail or other remote
transmittal. The specific request may come directly from OSHA or its designee,
e.g., the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health ("NIOSH").

        OSHA also initiated a number of partnerships with other federal and
national organizations in an effort to reduce the increasing number of
occupational illnesses and injuries among workers. This effort was prompted, in
part, by OSHA's inability to inspect and enforce worker safety in the
approximately five million (5,000,000) work sites in the United States and to
collect accurate worker injury and illness data to assist in targeting the
approximately 8,000 annual inspections in the face of continuing shrinking
budgets.



                                       14



        In August 1996, OSHA also announced a seven-state initiative to protect
workers in nursing homes and personal care facilities, one of the nation's
largest growing industries. The seven states include Florida, Illinois,
Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Nationwide there are
1.6 million nursing home workers in more than 21,000 facilities. It is
anticipated that by the year 2005, the nursing home and personal care facilities
will be one of the largest industries in the United States. Potential nursing
home hazards include back injuries from incorrect and/or strenuous lifting of
residents, slips and falls, workplace violence and risks from bloodborne
pathogens, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases.

        Effective April 2001, OSHA revised its bloodborne pathogens standards to
conform with the requirements of the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of
1999. This act required OSHA to revise the standards so as to include new
examples in the definitions of engineering controls along with other matters.
The final OSHA rule can be viewed at
www.osha-slc.gov/FedReg_osha_data/FED200110118A.html.


State and Local Licensing Requirements

        Since 1998, 18 states have adopted some type of legislation regarding
needlesticks and health care worker exposure to bloodborne pathogens exposure.
They include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa,
Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio,
Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia. Legislation is being considered in
Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Montana, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
Wisconsin and the District of Columbia.

        These state laws are aimed at adding additional safeguards for health care
workers at the state level. This includes addition provisions not in the federal
OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standards and/or coverage of public employees not
regulated by OSHA. An overview of state needle safety legislation can be viewed
at www.cdc.gov/niosh/ndl-law.html.

        Other than the governmental regulatory schemes listed above, the Company is
not subject to any other state or local regulations which apply to the operation
and business of the Company.

Effect of Probable Governmental Regulation on the Business

        The Company does not believe that there are any effects from probable
government regulation, including state or local laws, on the business.

Cost of Research and Development

        For fiscal years 2002 and 2001, the Company expended $0 of its revenues,
respectively, on research and development. These expenditures represented 0%,
respectively, of the total revenues of the Company for such fiscal years. The
principal decrease in the cost of research and development for these years are



                                       15


based upon the fact that the Company had insufficient capital in 2002 and 2001
to perform such activities.

Cost and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws

        The Company's business also could be subject to regulation under the state
and Federal laws regarding environmental protection and hazardous substances
control, including the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Environmental
Protection Act, and Toxic Substance Control Act. In 1992, the United States
Congress expressed increasing interest in the issues of sharp injuries. The
House Subcommittee on Regulation held hearings regarding needlestick injuries
and the implementation of mandated guidelines on safer medical devices. However,
the Company is unaware of any bills currently pending in Congress on this issue.
The Company believes that it is in material compliance with the current and
other applicable laws and that its continual compliance therewith will not have
a material adverse effect on its business.


Employees and Consultants

        As of December 31, 2002, the Company employed two (2) persons on a full
time basis via employment contracts effective June 1, 2002 for Mr. Novak and Mr.
Gray. None of these employees are represented by a labor union for purposes of
collective bargaining.

        On March 31, 2003 the Company entered a series of consultant relationships
to assist in business development and company and product acquisitions. These
consultant agreements are encompassed in the 2003 Stock Compensation Plan as
described in pre 14c as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
April 7, 2003 as incorporated by reference into this document.

Item 2. Description of Property

        The Company's mailing address is 8374 Market Street #439, Bradenton,
Florida, its telephone and fax number is (941) 360-3039.

        The executive offices were leased by Core Care beginning April 2001 and
subleased to C5. On May 9, 2002, Core Care assigned all rights, title and
interest in the lease to the Company. On May 10, 2002, the Company executed an
Amendment to the Lease Agreement with the landlord. As a result, part of the
space under the lease was surrendered to the landlord on June 1, 2002. Under the
terms of the lease as amended, commencing June 1, 2002, the Company was
obligated to pay a monthly rental of approximately $4,500 for approximately
2,200 square feet of office space. This office lease was terminated October 26,
2002, furniture and computers were sold, and financial records were put into
storage at the home offices of the company officers.

        The Company owns no real property and the balance of the remaining personal
property consisting of furniture, fixtures and equipment and leasehold
improvements where disposed of prior to exiting the corporate office lease
arrangement.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

        On March 25, 2002, the Company agreed to pay IBM $20,000 on or before May
31, 2002 as settlement for certain litigation. The settlement was predicated on
the Company paying this amount by May 31, 2002. However, the Company was unable
to pay these funds, and as such, the settlement amount was increased to $100,000
plus interest commencing June 1, 2002. The Company is liable to IBM for $100,000
plus statutory interest from June 1, 2002 as it has missed its threshold payment
date. The Company believes that this settlement was in the best interest of the
Company and its shareholders as it minimized the potential exposure should the
Company have been unsuccessful at trial. The Company charged the additional
$80,000 due to the vendor to operations during 2002.

On January 30, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with a health care
provider (the "Provider") in which the Provider was to perform clinical testing
of ten surgical or medical products submitted by the Company. The agreement,
which has been personally guaranteed by the Company's predecessor CEO, expired
on January 30, 2003 and required the Company to pay the Provider a fixed amount
of $25,000 for each of the ten studies. The agreement further provided that the
Company was obligated to pay the $250,000 even if the Company elected to forego
having the Provider perform the clinical testing. The Company has not submitted
any products for clinical testing during the term of the agreement and/or paid
any amounts due under this arrangement. For various reasons, the Provider has
effectively agreed to waive their rights under the agreement provided that the
Company either (1) enters into a new profit participation agreement with the
Company under which the Provider would receive no less than $250,000 within a
four year period commencing on the date of such agreement or (2) makes an
immediate payment of $50,000 to the Provider. As a result thereof, the Company
has recorded a $50,000 liability as of December 31, 2002, which amount
represents the probable amount of the liability existing at such time. If the
Company elects to enter a new profit participation agreement, the new agreement
is expected to retain the existing personal guaranty of the Company's previous
CEO.

        The Company knows of no other legal proceedings to which it is a party or
to which any of its property is the subject or any unsatisfied judgments against
the Company and knows of no other material legal proceedings which are pending,
threatened or contemplated.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

        There were no matters submitted to the vote of the security holders during
the fourth quarter 2002 or at any time during 2002. As described in a pre 14c as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2003, and
incorporated by reference, there will be certain actions requiring security
holder vote during the 2nd quarter 2003.

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Discussion and Analysis

        The Company was founded in 1992 to combat the potential spread of
bloodborne pathogenic infections such as HIV and hepatitis. It has broadened its
mission to research, develop, manufacturing, marketing and selling medical
products and services to the healthcare community.

        The Company was in the development stage until 1993 when it began
commercial shipments of SutureMate(R), its first product. During much of 2002
and 2001 the Company was relatively inactive as it sought a revenue merger
partner. There can be no assurance that profitability or significant revenues on
a quarterly or annual basis will occur in the future. Moreover, the Company
expects to continue to incur operating losses through at least December 31,
2004, and there can be no assurance that losses will not continue after such
date.

        As discussed in the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2002, the operating losses incurred by the Company, and
various other matters, raises doubt about its ability to continue as a going



                                       19



concern. During 2002, the Company's reduced operations were funded by bridge
--loans and residual sales and the Company's net loss continued. This period of
severe working capital constraints caused a significant strain on the Company's
management, financial and other resources. As a result of the difficulty in
forecasting revenue levels, the Company expects to continue to experience
significant fluctuations in its revenues, costs and gross margins, and therefore
its results of operations.

        The Company's plan of operations for the next twelve months is to focus on
identification and merger with a significant revenue producing company.

        In the short term, to fund operations through fiscal 2003, the Company will
be relying upon its revenues and will be seeking additional funds from strategic
alliances with potential clients, its shareholders, and other third party
lenders and/or investors.

        As discussed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements for the period ended
December 31, 2002, if the financing referred to above is not secured, the
recoverability of the recorded asset amounts may be impaired.

        The Company requires between $1 and $5 million in additional capital in the
form of debt or equity to fund the continued operations and merger and
acquisition activities.

Results of Operations - Full Fiscal Years

Revenues

        To date, a limited number of customers and distributors have accounted for
substantially all of the Company's revenues with respect to product sales. For
fiscal years ending December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company derived
approximately all of its revenue from sales of SutureMate.

        The Company anticipates that the main focus of its selling efforts will be
to focus on the sale of SutureMate(R). The Company intends to continue to sell
its products to a relatively small group of medical products distributors with
the objective of having its products distributed on a larger national and
international scale. Recent legislation regarding needlestick injuries is
expected to increase demand for the SutureMate(R)product. The Company has
entered into worldwide distribution agreement with DeRoyal for which the first
order was delivered in May 2001. Most medical product distributors carry an
extensive line of products (some of which they manufacture themselves) which
they make available to end users (hospitals, surgeons, healthcare workers) and
various of these products may compete with each other as to function, price or
other factors. In addition, numerous medical product distributors are not
themselves well capitalized and their financial condition may impact their
ability to properly distribute the Company's products.

        The Company's ability to achieve revenues in the future will depend in
significant part upon its ability to obtain orders from, maintain relationships
with and provide support to, existing and new customers, as well as the



                                       20



condition of its customers. As a result, any cancellation, reduction or delay in
orders by or shipments to any customer or the inability of any customer to
finance its purchases of the Company's products may materially adversely affect
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. There can
be no assurance that the Company's revenues will increase in the future. In
addition, the Company expects that the average selling price of a particular
product line will also decline as such products mature, and as competition
increases in the future. Accordingly, the Company's ability to maintain or
increase revenues will depend in part upon its ability to increase unit sales
volumes of its products and to introduce and sell products at prices sufficient
to compensate for reduced revenues resulting from declines in the average
selling price of the Company's more mature products. The management views the
companies majority of future revenues with be based upon the success of the
Company's merger and acquisition efforts.

Net Sales

        Net sales for the year ended December 31. 2001 and 2002 are comprised of
sales of SutureMate(R).

        The Company has an ongoing program to increase the exposure and
productivity of its websites and to reduce the costs of manufacturing its
products. As part of this program, the Company has been attempting to achieve
cost reductions principally through engineering and manufacturing improvements,
product economies and utilization of third party subcontractors for the
manufacture of the Company's products. Notwithstanding a delivery of defective
units, to date, it has been successful in substantially reducing such costs by
re-designing SutureMate(R). The success of these cost reduction programs will
not be known until production volumes are scaled up. There can be no assurance
that the Company's ongoing or future programs can be accomplished or that they
will increase gross profits.

        To the extent the Company is unable to increase the exposure and
productivity of its websites or to reduce its production costs or introduce new
products with higher margins, the Company's results of operations could be
materially adversely affected. The Company's results may also be affected by a
variety of other factors, including mix of products and services sold;
production, reliability or quality problems; price competition; and warranty
expenses and discounts.


                                       21


Operating Expenses

        Selling, General and Administrative. These expenses consist primarily of
the selling, general and administrative expenses for salaries, contract labor
and other expenses for management, information technology ("IT"), finance and
accounting, legal and other professional services including ongoing expenses as
a publicly owned Company related to legal, accounting and other administrative
services and expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31,
2001, general and administrative expenses were $551,648 and $386,056,
respectively. The increase of $165,591 is due primarily to increase of salaries
for its recently appointed executives who are identifying merger and product
opportunities. The Company expects general and administrative expenses to
increase in absolute dollars in 2003 as compared to 2002, as the Company
continues to expand its operations.

Research and Development

        For the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, research and
development expenses were $0 respectively. During 2002, the Company did not
capitalize any costs. The Company intends to invest resources to development of
new products and expects that research and development expenses in 2003 will
increase in absolute dollars as compared to 2002.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

        Interest and other income (expense), net consists primarily of interest
expenses accrued and or paid on the TK loans, notes due to officers, convertible
notes payable and MHC notes payable which were approximately $116,617.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Assets

        During the year ending December 31, 2002, the Company determined and
recorded related impairment expenses of $10,349on various assets. During the
year ended December 31, 2001, the Company determined and recorded related
impairment expenses of $1,276,038 and $174,130 for goodwill recorded at the date
of the C5 acquisition and for other assets, respectively.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of the Company
should be assessed in context with the ability of the Company to continue as a
going concern as discussed in the Company's financial statements.



                                       22




        At December 31, 2002, the Company had assets totaling $47 and liabilities
totaling $1,283,980. Since its inception in June of 1992, the Company has
financed its operations and met its capital requirements through sales of its
products, fees from OASiS, proceeds from the sale of or exchange for common
stock aggregating approximately $2,500,000, through borrowing from current
shareholders, through its arrangement with TK and through a former line of
credit of $100,000.

        Operating activities used net cash of $135,202 and $203,414 in 2002 and
2001, respectively.

        At December 31, 2002, the Company had a deficiency of working capital of
approximately $1,284,000 compared to a deficiency of working capital of
approximately $2,175,000 at December 31, 2001. This represented a increase in
working capital of approximately $891,000, which increase resulted substantially
from the retirement of the TK and MHC loans and from decreases arising from
operating expenses and shareholder advances. At December 31, 2002, the Company's
liabilities consisted of accounts payable in the amount of $295,311, accrued
expenses of $568,397, deferred revenue of $50,000, loans owed to Mr. Novak and
Mr. Gray totally $39,000, convertible debt of $57,500 and shareholder advances
of $159,763.

        At December 31, 2002, the Company does not have any significant off balance
sheet commitments.

        The Company's future capital requirements will depend upon many factors,
including merger and acquisition with a revenue producing products and
companies, its current sale of SutureMate, and new products and services, the
extent and timing of acceptance of the Company's products and services in the
market, requirements to maintain adequate manufacturing arrangements, the
progress of the Company's research and development efforts, expansion of the
Company's marketing and sales efforts, the Company's results of operations and
the status of competitive products and services. The Company will require
additional financing to fund its operations. There can be no assurance that any
additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at
all, when required by the Company. In the event additional debt is raised, the
amount of such financing, depending upon its terms, would increase either the
short or long term debt of the Company or both and it will incur future interest
expense. If adequate funds are not available as and when needed, the Company may
be required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of its planned
expansion, or research and development or manufacturing programs or obtain funds
through arrangements with partners or others that may require the Company to
relinquish rights to certain of its products or potential products or other
assets that the Company would not otherwise relinquish. Accordingly, the
inability to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. At December
31, 2002, we do not have the funds in place to meet our projected operating
expenditures for the foreseeable future.

Critical Accounting Policies

        Revenue Recognition

        The Company recognizes revenue related to services upon completion of the
services and/or shipment of the products.

        Long-Lived Assets

        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" requires that long-lived assets,



                                       23



including certain identifiable intangibles, and the goodwill related to those
assets, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value of the assets in question may not be
recoverable. Management has evaluated the Company's long-lived assets and has
determined that there were events during fiscal 2002 and 2001 that indicated
that certain intangible and fixed assets were impaired. As a result, the Company
recorded certain losses from impairment during 2002 and 2001.

        Property and Equipment

        Prior to its impairment and write off, property and equipment were stated
at cost. Depreciation and amortization was calculated using the straight-line
method over the assets' estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years.

        Financial Instruments

        Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market
assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31,
2002. The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial
instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include
cash, accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities and other notes
payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these
financial instruments because they are short term and/or are anticipated to be
satisfied through the issuance of our common stock. It was not practicable to
estimate the fair market value of the related party notes payable, convertible
notes payable and stockholder advances due to uncertainty surrounding the dates
they will be satisfied.

        Stock-Based Compensation

        The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees for
services based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued and accounts
for equity instruments issued to other than employees based on the fair value of
the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments,
whichever is more reliably measurable.

        The Company accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." The provisions of SFAS 123 allow
companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to
continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in APB Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) but disclose the pro forma
effects on net income (loss) had the fair value of the options been expensed.
The Company has elected to continue to apply APB 25 in accounting for its stock
option incentive plans.

        Recent Pronouncements

        In July 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets".
SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30,
2001. SFAS 142 is effective for the year beginning January 1, 2002; however
certain provisions of that Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible
assets acquired between July 1, 2001, and the effective date of SFAS 142.
Because goodwill and all other intangibles were determined to be impaired as of
December 31, 2001, the adoption of SFAS 142 will have a material impact on its
financial statements.



                                       24



        In July 2001 the FASB issued SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This Statement applies to all entities. It
applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets
that result from the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the normal
operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. This
Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company does not believe the adoption of this
standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

        In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for a
cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized at its fair
value when the liability is incurred. Under previous guidance, a liability for
certain exit costs was recognized at the date that management committed to an
exit plan, which was generally before the actual liability has been incurred.
SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after
December 31, 2002. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No.
146, as required on January 1, 2003, will have a material impact on its
financial statements.

        In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of SFAS No. 123." This
standard amends SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide
alternative methods of transition for companies that voluntarily change to the
fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It
also requires prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of
the Company's accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee
compensation in both annual and interim financial statements. The transition
provisions and annual disclosure requirements are effective for l fiscal years
ending after Dec. 15, 2002, while the interim period disclosure requirements are
effective for interim periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2002. The Company does
not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 148 will have a material impact on its
financial statements.

Plan of Operations

        The Company's plan of operations for the next twelve months is to focus on
identification and merger with a significant revenue producing company. In the
short term, to fund operations through fiscal 2003, the Company will be relying
upon its revenues and will be seeking additional funds from strategic alliances
with potential clients, shareholders, and other third party lenders and/or
investors. The Company will maintain minimal staff while seeking capital and
merger partners. The Company requires between $1 and $5 million in additional
capital in the form of debt or equity to fund the continued operations and
merger and acquisition activities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Surgical Safety Products, Inc. and
subsidiary:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Surgical Safety
Products, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2002, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we 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. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the
years ended December 31,2002 and 2001 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

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
consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered significant losses
from operations, has working capital and stockholders' deficits and will require
a significant amount of capital and/or debt financing to proceed with its
business plan. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard
to these matters are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                        /s/ Kingery, Crouse & Hohl, P.A.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Activities

Surgical Safety Products, Inc. (Surgical) was incorporated in the State of
Florida on May 15, 1992 and merged into a New York Corporation in 1994. Surgical
and its wholly owned subsidiary, C5 Health, Inc. (C5), (collectively, the
Company) is engaged in product development, sales and distribution and services
for the healthcare industry. The Company had limited business activity during
2002 and 2001.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
C5. All inter-company accounts and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue related to services upon completion of the
services and/or shipment of the products.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Long-Lived Assets

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" requires that long-lived assets,
including certain identifiable intangibles, and the goodwill related to those
assets, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value of the assets in question may not be
recoverable. Management has evaluated the Company's long-lived assets and has
determined that there were events during fiscal 2002 and 2001 that indicated
that various intangible and fixed assets were impaired. As a result, the Company
recorded certain losses from impairment during 2002 and 2001. See Notes 3, 7,
and 13.

Property and Equipment

Prior to its impairment and write off, property and equipment were stated at
cost. Depreciation and amortization was calculated using the straight-line
method over the assets' estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs
included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $-0 for both of
the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.

Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions
and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2002. The
respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments
approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash,
accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities and other notes payable. Fair
values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial
instruments because they are short term and/or are anticipated to be satisfied
through the issuance of our common stock. It was not practicable to estimate the
fair market value of the related party notes payable, convertible notes payable
and stockholder advances due to uncertainty surrounding the dates they will be
satisfied.


                                       34


Net Loss Per Common Share

The Company calculates net loss per share as required by SFAS 128, "Earnings per
Share." Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per
share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of
common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the
periods when they would be anti-dilutive common stock equivalents (consisting of
warrants and stock options) are not considered in the computations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

Segment Information

The Company follows SFAS 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information." Certain information is disclosed, per SFAS 131, based on
the way management organizes financial information for making operating
decisions and assessing performance. The Company currently operates in a single
segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it
expands its operations.

Income Taxes

The Company follows SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" for recording the
provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed
based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases
of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when
the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred
income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or
liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to
the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such
valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in
the period of change.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees for services
based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued and accounts for equity
instruments issued to other than employees based on the fair value of the
consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments, whichever is
more reliably measurable.

The Company accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." The provisions of SFAS 123 allow
companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to
continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in APB Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) but disclose the pro forma
effects on net income (loss) had the fair value of the options been expensed.
The Company has elected to continue to apply APB 25 in accounting for its stock
option incentive plans.

Recent Pronouncements

In July 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 141,
"Business Combinations", and SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets". SFAS
141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001.
SFAS 142 is effective for the year beginning January 1, 2002; however certain
provisions of that Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets
acquired between July 1, 2001, and the effective date of SFAS 142. Because
goodwill and all other intangibles were determined to be impaired as of December
31, 2001, the adoption of SFAS 142 did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial statements.


                                       35



In July 2001 the FASB issued SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This Statement applies to all entities. It
applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long- lived
assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the
normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of
lessees. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company does not believe the adoption
of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for a cost
associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized at its fair value
when the liability is incurred. Under previous guidance, a liability for certain
exit costs was recognized at the date that management committed to an exit plan,
which was generally before the actual liability has been incurred. SFAS No. 146
will be effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31,
2002. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 146, as
required on January 1, 2003, will have a material impact on its financial
statements.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of SFAS No. 123." This
standard amends SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide
alternative methods of transition for companies that voluntarily change to the
fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It
also requires prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of
the Company's accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee
compensation in both annual and interim financial statements. The transition
provisions and annual disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years
ending after Dec. 15, 2002, while the interim period disclosure requirements are
effective for interim periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2002. The Company does
not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 148 will have a material impact on its
financial statements.

Note 2 - Going Concern

The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business.

The Company has experienced significant losses from operations of $719,819 and
$1,741,922 in 2002 and 2001, respectively and has working capital and
stockholders' deficits of $1,283,933 at December 31, 2002. The Company's ability
to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to attain
profitable operations by securing financing and implementing its business plan
and the successful integration of an operating business. In addition, the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of
the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into
established markets and the competitive environment in which the Company
operates. Management's plans include searching for an appropriate merger and/or
acquisition target. In the interim, management will attempt to fund operations
by raising debt or equity capital through borrowings and/or private placements.
However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in their
efforts to raise capital and/or to locate a suitable merger or acquisition
target, or that such merger or acquisition can be accomplished on acceptable
terms. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to
continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of
the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 - Acquisition

On October 26, 2001, Surgical acquired all of the stock of C5 in exchange for
20,022,889 shares of its common stock. C5 is a transaction-based healthcare
e-business and information services company located in Sarasota, Florida, which
had no significant revenue generating operations since its inception in April
2001.

The Company accounted for this transaction using the purchase method of
accounting. The results of operations have been included in the accompanying
financial statements since the effective date of the acquisition. The fair
market value of the common shares issued to effect the acquisition aggregated
$220,252.



                                       36



The purchase price was allocated as follows:

Current assets                                        $     12,500
Property and equipment                                      98,929

                                                      =============

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at the historical cost
bases of C5 as such bases approximated the fair values of C5's assets and
liabilities at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price paid
over the fair value of the net assets acquired of $1,276,038 was recorded as
goodwill. The Company had determined that the goodwill was impaired at December
31, 2001 and recorded a charge to operations for the impairment.

The following  summarized 2001 pro forma information assumes the acquisition had
occurred on April 20, 2001, the date of inception of C5.

Note 4 - Convertible Notes Payable

The Company has outstanding convertible promissory notes aggregating $57,500 at
December 31, 2002. The notes carried a premium of 10% of the principal amount,
and entitled each of the note holders to an additional premium of one share of
common stock for each $2 loaned to the Company. The notes are convertible into
common shares of C5 at a rate of $.50 per share. C5 paid the premium and
recorded the 30,000 shares of common stock due as additional premium at $.05 per
share (the amount is included in additional paid in capital in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet). None of the 30,000 shares have been issued to the
respective lenders and the notes are in default at December 31, 2002.

Note 5 - Notes Payable - Related Party

At December 31, 2002, notes payable - related party consists of two unsecured
promissory notes due to officers, bearing interest at fixed rates of 9.5% per
annum. The notes, and related accrued interest, are due on demand.

Note 6 - Other Convertible Notes Payable

In December 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with an
investment-banking firm (lender) to obtain a convertible secured line of credit
in the amount of $5,000,000. On February 7, 2001, the Company executed a loan
cancellation and settlement agreement effectively terminating the line of credit
agreement. Pursuant to the termination agreement, the remaining balance of the
debt as of such time was to continue to accrue interest at 8% until the notes
and related accrued interest were fully converted. At December 31, 2001, the
balance of the notes and accrued interest was $341,442; this amount, and
additional interest of $19,893 earned by the lender in 2002, was converted to
843,560 shares of the Company's common stock on December 15, 2002.
Simultaneously, the note was returned to the Company thereby terminating all
related rights and obligations (including the rights of the lender to exercise
certain warrants that had been granted during the term of the loan).


                                       37


Note 7 - Software Development Costs

During 2000 the Company incurred and capitalized expenditures relating to the
enhancement of certain software in the amount of $147,768. During 2001 the
Company determined that the value of the software was impaired and charged the
unamortized cost of $23,850 to operations.

Note 8 - Stock Option Plans

The Company has various stock option plans outstanding. Options granted under
the 1998 stock option plans are exercisable only after the respective vesting
period, which is determined by the Company's stock option committee. Options
expire seven years from the date of grant. Under the 1999 stock option plan,
options granted to employees vest ratably over three years; vesting is
determined by the Company's stock option committee for options granted to
officers, directors, and consultants. Options expire ten years from the date of
grant.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
SFAS 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its stock
options under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value for these
options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following assumptions for 2000: risk-free interest rate of 6.03%;
dividend yield of 0%; volatility factor of the expected market price of the
Company's common stock of .34; and a weighted-average expected life of the
option of 2.7 years.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because
the Company's stock options have characteristics significantly different from
those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions
can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the
existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair
value of its stock options.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options
is charged to expense over the options' vesting period. For the fiscal years
ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 the Company would have recorded compensation
expense of approximately $11,750 and $11,900, respectively. The Company's pro
forma information for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 is as follows:

                                          2002               2001

Note 9 - Common Stock

During 2001, the Company issued 5,157,500 shares of its common stock having a
fair market value of $78,895 to certain employees (including 4,657,500 shares
issued to the Company's then chief executive officer - see Note 11) as
consideration for services rendered.

As discussed in Note 3, during 2001 the Company issued 20,022,889 shares of
common stock with a fair market value of $220,252 in conjunction with the
acquisition of C5.

Pursuant to terms of the other convertible, secured line of credit agreement
discussed at Note 6, the Company was required to issue 2,700,000 shares of its
common stock to be held in escrow by the lender. The purpose of the escrow
account was to ensure availability of shares of common stock that the lender
could obtain by exercising the conversion feature and warrants issued pursuant
to the agreement. During fiscal 2000, the lender converted a portion of the
principal and interest outstanding to 1,334,536 shares of these escrowed shares.
The remaining escrowed shares were issued in 2001. In addition, during 2001 the
Company issued 2,278,321 shares of its common stock with a fair market value of
$25,061 as "bonus shares" to such lender. This amount was reflected as
additional interest expense in 2001.

In accordance with a settlement agreement as discussed in Note 6, on December
15, 2002 the remaining balance of the other convertible notes payable plus
accrued interest totaling $361,135 were exchanged for 843,560 shares of common
stock for termination of all obligations under the agreement.



                                       39



During the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, a stockholder contributed
$96,500 and $105,216 in exchange for the rights to receive a total of 6,723,858
shares of the Company's common stock. These shares were issued during the year
ended December 31, 2002.

At December 31, 2002, the Company has 475,000 warrants outstanding, which
warrants entitle the holders to purchase one share of the Company's restricted
common stock for $1.00 a share. The warrants expire in 2004.

Note 10 - Income Taxes

At December 31, 2002, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of
approximately $5,400,000 that expire during the years 2008 through 2022. At
December 31, 2002 we had no deferred tax liabilities and our non-current
deferred income tax asset arose solely from such net operating loss carry
forwards. However, because of a potential change in control, and based on the
Company's financial history, the availability of these losses to offset future
taxable income is so uncertain that no deferred income tax asset has been
recorded.

Note 11 - Commitments

Leases

In 2001, and for a portion of 2002, the Company subleased space for its
administrative headquarters on a month-to-month basis. In May 2002, the Company
entered a lease expiring on March 31, 2006. This lease was terminated on October
29, 2002 and all future obligations were released in exchange for a promissory
note totaling $33,009 which included termination and related fees. This note is
due on October 29, 2003 and accrues interest at 6% per annum (such interest is
also due at maturity).

Subsequent to termination of such lease, the Company has operated out of the
President's home. No amounts have been ascribed to the value of this space in
the accompanying 2002 consolidated statements of operations because the value of
such office space was not considered significant.

In connection with the acquisition of C5 (see Note 3), the Company leased some
of its administrative facility in Manassas, Virginia from a related entity under
a month-to-month arrangement (the arrangement was terminated effective April 30,
2002). Total rent expense during the year ended December 31, 2002, and the
period subsequent to the acquisition of C5 in 2001, under this arrangement
approximated $5,712 and $5,250, respectively.

Rent expense under all operating leases approximated $95,100 and $29,000 during
the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Employment Agreements

During the period June 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002, the Company was obligated
under an employment arrangements with its chief executive officer that required
annual base compensation of $100,000 per year. At the election of the officer,
this salary may be converted into shares of the Company's common stock at 75% of
the fair market value of such stock on June 1, 2001. This officer also was
granted the right to convert all accrued but unpaid salary due him through May
31, 2001 at the closing bid price on June 1, 2001. As a result, the officer
converted accrued salaries existing at that time into 4,657,500 shares of
restricted common stock on June 1, 2001. This agreement ended on March 31, 2002,
which coincided with the officer's personal efforts being allocated and directed
to other business ventures outside of the Company.

Effective June 1, 2002, the Board of Directors passed a resolution regarding
employment arrangement with its newly appointed chief executive officer and
chief financial officer. The Board resolved that such arrangements be for an
annual salary of $150,000 for each officer. The Company may terminate the
agreements for any reason upon ninety days notice.

Settlement Agreement

In March 2002, the Company settled certain litigation filed by a former supplier
of support services for the Company's Oasis


                                       40


systems. The plaintiff was alleging among other things, breach of contract and
unjust enrichment. Pursuant to terms of the settlement, the Company had agreed
to pay the plaintiff $20,000 on or before May 31, 2002. In the event such
payment was not made, the Company would be liable to the plaintiff for $100,000
plus interest from June 1, 2002. The $20,000 payment was not made by May 31,
2002 and accordingly, the $100,000 amount is now due. The $100,000 settlement
has been included in accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Other

On January 30, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with a health care
provider (the "Provider") in which the Provider was to perform clinical testing
of ten surgical or medical products submitted by the Company. The agreement,
which has been personally guaranteed by the Company's predecessor CEO, expired
on January 30, 2003 and required the Company to pay the Provider a fixed amount
of $25,000 for each of the ten studies. The agreement further provided that the
Company was obligated to pay the $250,000 even if the Company elected to forego
having the Provider perform the clinical testing. The Company has not submitted
any products for clinical testing during the term of the agreement and/or paid
any amounts due under this arrangement. For various reasons, the Provider has
effectively agreed to waive their rights under the agreement provided that the
Company either (1) enters into a new profit participation agreement with the
Company under which the Provider would receive no less than $250,000 within a
four year period commencing on the date of such agreement or (2) makes an
immediate payment of $50,000 to the Provider. As a result thereof, the Company
has recorded a $50,000 liability as of December 31, 2002, which amount
represents the probable amount of the liability existing at such time. If the
Company elects to enter a new profit participation agreement, the new agreement
is expected to retain the existing personal guaranty of the Company's previous
CEO.

Note 12- Other Related Party Transactions

In December 2002, debt and accrued interest having a carrying book value of
approximately $1,044,000 was extinguished. The transaction resulted from the
dissolution of the related party as a legal company and with no legal standing
in the states in which it transacted business. All known registered agent
representatives were contacted and indicated their resignation with no successor
being identified, and management believes that the possibility of payment of
such debt in the future is remote. Because of the nature of the relationship
between the creditor and the Company, the extinguishment has been reflected as
an increase in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet.

The Company periodically receives working capital advances from stockholders. At
December 31, 2002, $118,200 of the stockholders advances in the consolidated
balance sheet are non-interest bearing and $41,563 bear interest at a fixed rate
of 10% per annum. All of the advances are unsecured and due on demand.

In connection with the related party notes, the Company incurred interest
expense of approximately $86,420 and $24,300, respectively, during the years
ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The amounts are included in
accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities at December 31, 2002 less
certain accrued interest totaling $68,430 considered extinguished as discussed
in Note 14.

In addition to such interest, at December 31, 2002 accounts payable and accrued
and other liabilities included other amounts owed to officers, directors and
other affiliates of approximately $332,000 at December 31, 2002.

During 2001, an officer of the Company contributed $30,000 in unpaid salary to
the capital of the Company.

Note 13 - Other Impairments

Certain intangibles and property and equipment having book values of
approximately $10,349 and $122,680, respectively were deemed to be impaired as
of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and accordingly, were written-off during such
years.



                                       41



Note 14 - Subsequent Events

On March 31, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and approved
several resolutions as follows:

          register the shares under the 2003 Stock Compensation Plan.
        o The authorization of a Series A Preferred Stock consisting of 4,000,000
          shares.

          accrued and unpaid salary totaling $200,000 to two officers of the Company.
        o Issuance of 1,330,000 of Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of
          $100,000 cash by an individual investor.
        o The incorporation of a subsidiary to be known as Power3 Medical, Inc. to be
          incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada as a wholly owned
          subsidiary.
        o Entering a merger with and into its wholly owned subsidiary known as Power3
          Medical, Inc.

In addition, on March 31, 2003 the Company entered a series of consultant
relationships to assist in business development and company and product
acquisitions. These consultant agreements are encompassed in the 2003 Stock
Compensation Plan. These consultants will receive warrants for 8,000,000 shares
of common stock registered under a contemplated S-8 filing.

Employee Contracts and Agreement

        During the period June 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002, the Company was obligated
under an employment arrangement with its chief executive officer that required
annual base compensation of $100,000 per year. At the election of the officer,
this salary may be converted into shares of the Company's common stock at 75% of
the fair market value of such stock on June 1, 2001. This officer also was
granted the right to convert all accrued but unpaid salary due him through May
31, 2001 at the closing bid price on June 1, 2001. As a result, the officer
converted accrued salaries existing at that time into 4,657,500 shares of
restricted common stock on June 1, 2001. This agreement ended on March 31, 2002,
which coincided with the officer's personal efforts being allocated and directed
to other business ventures outside of the Company.



                                       47


        During the term of the agreement, Dr. Swor accrued $83,333 of salary. On
August 12, 2002 and effective June 1, 2002, the Board of Directors passed a
resolution regarding employment arrangement with its newly appointed chief
executive officer, Timothy S. Novak and chief financial officer, R. Paul Gray.
The Board resolved that such arrangements be for an annual salary of $150,000
for each officer. The agreements may be terminated for any reason; if the
Company elects to do so without cause, then the officers will be entitled to
compensation and benefits for a period of ninety days. Under these agreements
the officers had accrued $125,000 as of March 31, 2003, which remains unpaid. On
March 31,2003, each officer converted $100,000 of this accrued and unpaid salary
in consideration for issuance of preferred stock as described following.

Key Man Life Insurance

        The Company was the named beneficiary of a key-man life insurance policy
currently owned by Dr. Swor, for which the Company had reimbursed Dr. Swor.
Since the company was unable to reimburse Dr. Swor for the premiums associated
with this policy in 2002 and Dr. Swor is no longer considered "key-man" to the
Company, the company releases any and all right to be the named beneficiary of
this key man policy and signs over any existing cash values to Dr. Swor as an
off-set to the outstanding liabilities and advances due to Dr. Swor.

established by the Stock Option Committee for Directors, Consultants and
Advisors. The plan is overseen by the Board of Directors or the Stock Option
Committee and all issuances are at fair market value as defined in the plan (and
110% of fair market value in the case of a 10% or more shareholder). The plan
provides the exercise rights on death, disability or termination of employment.

Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

        During the period June 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002, the Company was obligated
under an employment arrangement with its chief executive officer that required
annual base compensation of $100,000 per year. At the election of the officer,
this salary may be converted into shares of the Company's common stock at 75% of
the fair market value of such stock on June 1, 2001. This officer also was
granted the right to convert all accrued but unpaid salary due him through May
31, 2001 at the closing bid price on June 1, 2001. As a result, the officer
converted accrued salaries existing at that time into 4,657,500 shares of
restricted common stock on June 1, 2001. This agreement ended on March 31, 2002,
which coincided with the officer's personal efforts being allocated and directed
to other business ventures outside of the Company.

        Effective June 1, 2001, the Board of Directors passed a further resolution
awarding 500,000 shares of its restricted Common Stock to the acting office
manager in consideration of her past and future efforts on behalf of the
Company. Said shares were valued at $10,000 based upon the applicable price on
June 1, 2001. The valuation for this transaction appears as approximately $7,700
in the financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2001.

        Surgical executed a Term Sheet with C5 on July 10, 2001 whereby C5 agreed
to merge into OIX, Inc., the Company's wholly owned subsidiary The reverse
triangular merger was executed on September 15, 2001 to take effect upon
completion of the filings of the Articles of Merger with the States of Florida
and Delaware. Such filings were effective date on October 26, 2001.

        Under the merger, the Company acquired all of the shares of C5 from the
eleven (11) C5 shareholders in exchange for 20,022,889 shares in the Company and
merged OIX into C5. This issuance effectively changed control in the Company.
The Company's shares were issued in accordance with Rule 506 of Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Blue Sky laws
of Virginia and Florida.

        At the time of the merger, by virtue of the acquisition of C5, the Company
assumed certain liabilities. In this regard, the Company did not assume the
following liabilities, which will remain the sole liability of C5 Health, Inc.,
a private Delaware Corporation. The following will remain the sole obligation of
C5 Health, Inc. and are not assumed by the parent:

        1. Promissory Notes in the total face amount of $57,500 to seven (7)
           individuals who are unaffiliated to the Company or C5. The notes
           carried a premium of 10% of the principal amount, and entitled each of
           the note holders to an additional premium of one share of common stock
           of C5 for each $2 loaned to C5 prior to the merger. The notes are
           convertible into common shares of C5 at a rate of $.50 per share. C5
           paid the premium and recorded the 30,000 shares of common stock due as



                                       53



           additional premium at $.05 per share. None of the 30,000 shares of C5
           stock have been issued to the respective lenders and the notes were
           originally due on August 27, 2001 and were in default at December 31,
           2001.

        2. A Secured Promissory Note in the face amount of $500,000 issued May
           22, 2001 by C5 and bearing interest at a fixed rate of 8.5% per annum
           payable to MHC as part of the acquisition by C5 of MHC's assets. The
           note was due originally on August 22, 2001 with all accrued interest.
           It was extended to December 31, 2002. It was secured by the assets
           owned by C5. As discussed in the 2002 consolidated financial
           statements, this note was extinguished effective December 31, 2002 as
           MHC (a related party) no longer had legal standing in the states in
           which it transacted business.

        3. A Secured Promissory Note in the face amount of $460,000 issued August
           1, 2001 by C5, which accrued interest in the event of default at the
           rate of 8.5% per annum and was payable to MHC. The note was originally
           due on July 31, 2002. MHC extended the note to December 31, 2002. The
           note was secured by the assets of C5 acquired by MHC. As discussed in
           the 2002 consolidated financial statements, this note was extinguished
           effective December 31, 2002 as MHC (a related party) no longer had
           legal standing in the states in which it transacted business.

        4. Unsecured Promissory Notes in the total face amount of $45,000 issued
           in June 2001 by C5 and payable to Mr. Gray and Mr. Novak bearing
           interest at the fixed rate of 9.5% and are due on demand At December
           31, 2002, these notes totaled $39,000.

        Mr. Danielczyk incorporated MHC in Delaware in March 1999 and acted as its
Director and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Danielczyk owned 20% of MHC. Mr.
Danielczyk was the Chairman of the Board of C5 from June 2001 and owned
individually and beneficially through Bentley 19.56% at the time of its
acquisition by the Company. Mr. Danielczyk is a Director and Chief Executive
Officer from May 2001 of Reli that has engaged in certain related party
transactions with C5 and Mr. Danielczyk owns 35% of Reli. Reli owned 2.93 % of

and owned 20% of Reli.

        Mr. Novak has been a Director, President and Chief Operating Officer of C5
since its formation in April 2001 and owned 27.18% of C5 individually at the
time of its acquisition by the Company. In addition to his duties with the
Company and C5, he was elected a Vice President of Reli in March 2002 and
resigned in May 2002. He holds no ownership in that company.

Dr. Swor in the amount of $101,700 for working capital advances. These advances
are non-interest bearing and due on demand.
