PROSPECTUS Information contained herein is subject to completion or amendment. A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. This prospectus shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such State. PROSPECTUS DATED AUGUST 11, 1998 BCAM INTERNATIONAL, INC. 1,980,198 Shares of Common Stock (a) 250,000 Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon Exercise of the 1998 Private Placement Warrants (a) 2,019,802 Shares of Common Stock (b) 375,000 Shares of Common Stock (c) This prospectus relates to the offering of a maximum aggregate of 4,625,000 shares of Common Stock of BCAM International, Inc. (the "Company"). All of the 4,625,000 shares included herein will be offered by various selling shareholders (the "Selling Shareholders"), and not the Company, as follows: (i) 1,980,198 shares issued in an April 1998 private placement offering (the "April 1998 Offering"), (ii) 250,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of Non-Redeemable 1998 Private Placement warrants which were also issued in the April 1998 Offering, (iii) 2,019,802 shares which the Company and the investors in the April 1998 Offering agreed would be registered in respect of repricing provisions which are described elsewhere herein and (iv) 375,000 shares of Common Stock issued to Charles G. Schuyler in connection with the Company's acquisition of Drew Shoe Corporation in September 1997. (a) Pursuant to the April 1998 Offering the Company completed the sale of 1,980,198 shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to repricing as described below, and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years, in exchange for aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 (before placement agent fee of 6.5% and expenses) in a private placement to accredited investors. The number of shares issued to these investors will be "repriced" in increments of invested proceeds pursuant to a schedule. The increments are initially four $300,000 increments and then four $200,000 increments on eight occasions. The repricing increments commence with the effectiveness of this registration statement, then one increment 60 days later and the remaining six increments in 30 day intervals thereafter. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued at 77% of the average closing bid price, as defined, for the five trading days immediately preceding but not including, the "repricing" date. Each "repricing" calculation is made independent of the other "repricing" calculations. The operation of the "repricing" provision could result in a significantly greater number of shares being issued than the shares listed above. For example, if each of the repricings of all of the increments were made when the Company's stock price was at the average closing bid price on August 7, 1998, the Company would be obliged to issue an additional 2,175,646 shares, in aggregate, to the selling shareholders. See (b) below. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing of the Offering in April 1998. The Company is exposed to penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares within 130 days of such closing date. The Company has agreed, under certain circumstances, not to sell additional securities for 270 days after issuance of all shares under the "repricing" provisions without the consent of the investors and has agreed to a right of first refusal as defined in the agreements. The Registrant claims exemption from registration of the sale of this Common Stock and Warrants by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. (b) Represents shares which the Company and the investors in the April 1998 Offering agreed would be initially registered in respect of shares which may be issued pursuant to the repricing provisions which are described in (a) above and elsewhere herein. (c) Represents shares issued to Charles G. Schuyler, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company's Drew Shoe Corporation subsidiary, in connection with the acquisition of the stock of Drew Shoe Corporation on September 22, 1997. The Company is not aware of any underwriting arrangements with respect to the sale of the securities to which this Prospectus relates. The Common Stock is traded from time to time on the Boston Stock Exchange and the Common Stock and its Redeemable Class B Warrants and its Redeemable Class E Warrants are traded in the NASDAQ (SmallCap) market at prices then prevailing. The Company will not receive proceeds from the registration of the 1,980,198 shares, the 375,000 shares and the 2,019,802 shares and may receive proceeds if any of the Warrants described above are exercised. (See "Use of Proceeds"). The closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock on August 7, 1998, as reported on NASDAQ (symbol: BCAM), is $0.625 per share. (See "Market for Company's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters"). THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION. SEE "RISK FACTORS AND DILUTION."

Each prospective investor is urged to read this Prospectus in its entirety. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to "BCAM" and the "Company" herein include its subsidiaries. This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this Prospectus, the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "expect" and other similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business," as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus. THE COMPANY BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") since its inception was a specialized ergonomic (i.e. human factors engineering) software, technology and consulting company. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe's annual revenues were approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996. Drew Shoe's business generates non-technology based revenue, as well as potential new product opportunities through possible commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") technology into Drew Shoe products and is an element of the Company's strategy of further possible acquisition of medical footwear and related businesses. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In February 1998, the ergonomic consulting services business was sold due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In late February 1998, the Company discontinued the operations of the HumanCAD Systems division. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The Company's focus is on building its business in medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's IST and proprietary "microvalve" technology. Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. The Company's principal subsidiaries consist of Drew Shoe Corporation (medical footwear) and BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies). While the Company presently believes that it has the liquidity to satisfy its planned operations through March 1999, in April 1999 very material secured obligations must be satisfied. The Company presently does not have the resources to satisfy such obligations and therefore could not prevent foreclosure on all of the assets of the Company. Further, the April 1998 debt restructure results in approximately $2.5 million of charges to operations and/or stockholders' equity that will be recorded in the second quarter ended June 30, 1998. Partly as a result of such charge, the Company does not presently meet the criteria for continued listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap market. See "Risk Factors", "Recent Events", "Summary Financial Data", "Consolidated Financial Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation". - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Offer Securities Offered.....................

See "Management - Stock Option Plans", "Management - Director Compensation", "Principal Stockholders-Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management", and "Description of Securities" and "Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements". - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary Financial Data The summary historical financial data set forth below is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 1997 and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 and from the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 (date of acquisition by the Company) and for the year ended December 31, 1996 as well as the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 1998 and for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company has accounted for the acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the Company's financial position at December 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998 (unaudited) includes the financial position of Drew Shoe based upon an allocation of the purchase price of Drew Shoe. The Company's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 include the operations of Drew Shoe for approximately three and one half months since its acquisition by the Company. The Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 (unaudited) include the operations of Drew Shoe for the entire period and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 do not include the operations of Drew Shoe. The summary pro-forma operations data set forth below shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of January 1, 1997. This information is derived from the financial statements described above as well as the pro-forma information appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non-recurring charges which are discussed in Notes 6 and 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company) and the amortization of preliminary fair value adjustments principally for increased depreciation and amortization. The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficient available net operating losses to offset anticipated profits from Drew Shoe, if any. The summary pro-forma balance sheet data presented below reflects: (1) the proceeds, net of estimated expenses, of the private offering of $2,000,000 of Common Stock and Warrants in April 1998 (see "Recent Events") and (2) the material charges and adjustments that result from the April 1998 restructure of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes (see "Recent Events"). The summary pro-forma financial data should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and Drew Shoe referred to above as well as to the unaudited pro-forma information of the Company and Drew Shoe, also included elsewhere in this prospectus. Pro-forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which would have been achieved had the Company actually acquired Drew Shoe on January 1, 1997.

At December 31, 1997, an estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in the acquisition of Drew Shoe has been made. Based upon such evaluation at December 31, 1997, there is not a material amount of goodwill recorded in the acquisition of Drew Shoe. (b) Pro-forma column excludes non-recurring charges including: (i) the application of Emerging Issues Task Force pronouncement D-60 for the beneficial value of the conversion feature of certain financings completed in 1997 including $788,000 related to a convertible preferred stock of a subsidiary (charge to minority interest), an initial amount, through December 31, 1997, of approximately $1,635,000 related to a convertible note payable (interest and financing cost), (ii) the write off of approximately $130,000 of costs associated with financings which the Company elected not to complete (interest and financing costs) and (iii) the aggregate charges to operations and extraordinary item of approximately $2.2 million. Such charges are excluded from the summary pro-forma information above because they are non-recurring in nature. The pro-forma column includes the 10% minority interest received by the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes as part of the April 1998 debt restructure agreement.

(c) Reflects: (i) the issuance on April 22, 1998 of 1,980,198 shares (prior to any repricings) of Common Stock of the Company in exchange for $2,000,000, net of commissions and expenses estimated to be $180,000 and (ii) accounting for charges associated with the April 1998 restructure of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes. Such charges include; (i) the write-off of an aggregate of approximately $564,000 of deferred finance costs and approximately $1,087,000 of debt discount that results from the shortened term to maturity of the Convertible Notes, (ii) the write-off of unamortized debt discount of approximately $281,000 that resulted from the original issuance of the warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock which the noteholders gave up and (iii) the charge, as an extraordinary item, of approximately $552,000 as the value of the 10% minority interest in Drew Shoe and BCAM Technology given up to the noteholders. (d) See "Risk Factors" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" regarding very material secured debt coming due in April 1999 which the Company presently does not have the ability to satisfy. RECENT EVENTS: ACQUISITION OF DREW SHOE CORPORATION AND RELATED ACQUISITION FINANCING (INCLUDING APRIL 1998 RESTRUCTURING OF SUCH FINANCING); DISCONTINUANCE OF ERGONOMIC CONSULTING AND SOFTWARE OPERATIONS; RECENT PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. The purchase price was paid by delivery to the two shareholders of Drew Shoe of an aggregate of $3,882,000 in cash, promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 and by delivery of an aggregate of 375,000 shares of common stock to one shareholder who is the ongoing President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. The Company intends to continue to operate Drew Shoe as a manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements". See "Description of Securities; 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Non- Redeemable Class DD Warrants", "Risk Factors Secured Debt Coming Due in 1999", "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis" for a description of the $6,390,000 (including $390,000 of interest "paid in kind" on March 19, 1998) face amount of 10%/13% Convertible Notes and warrants issued in order to finance the acquisition of Drew Shoe and an April 1998 restructuring of this obligation which accelerates the maturity of such 10%/13% Convertible Notes to April 16, 1999 and secures the obligation with all of the assets of the Company not presently secured by a bank (see below). Effective April 14, 1998 the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and related warrants entered into a First Amendment (and related Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) of the September 1997 Note Purchase Agreement in order to restructure the obligation. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement), (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders of a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. The Company expects to take significant charges to operations and/or stockholders equity in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. Such charges include; (i) the write-off of an aggregate of approximately $564,000 of deferred finance costs and approximately $1,087,000 of debt discount that results from the shortened term to maturity of the Convertible Notes, (ii) the write-off of unamortized debt discount of approximately $281,000 that resulted from the original issuance of the warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock which the noteholders gave up and (iii) the accrual, an extraordinary item, of approximately $552,000 as the value of the minority interest in Drew Shoe and BCAM Technology given to the noteholders. Simultaneously with the acquisition, Drew Shoe closed a credit facility (guaranteed by the Company and secured by all of the assets of Drew Shoe) consisting of a revolving line of credit (asset-based) and term loan with a commercial bank as described more fully in "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements." Indebtedness under such agreements totaled approximately $3,718,000 at March 31, 1998. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business as discussed in Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements. In late February 1998, the Board of Directors decided to seek alternative value for the operations of the HumanCAD Systems division. See "Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements." On April 22, 1998 the Company completed the offering of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company, subject to repricing as described below, and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years, in exchange for aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 in a private placement to accredited investors. The number of shares issued to these investors will be "repriced" in increments of invested proceeds pursuant to a schedule. The increments are initially four $300,000 increments and then four $200,000 increments on eight occasions. The repricing increments commence with the effectiveness of this registration statement, then one increment 60 days later and the remaining six increments in 30 day intervals thereafter. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued at 77% of the average closing bid price, as defined, for the five trading days immediately preceding but not including, the "repricing" date. Each "repricing" calculation is made independent of the other "repricing" calculations. The operation of the "repricing" provision could result in a significantly greater number of shares being issued than the shares listed above. For example, if each of the repricing of all of the increments was made when the Company's stock price was at the average closing bid price on August 7, 1998, the Company would be obliged to issue an additional 2,175,646 shares, in aggregate, to the selling shareholders. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, and the sale of Ergonomic Consulting Services and discontinuance of the HumanCAD Systems operations, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The operations of Drew Shoe alone are not sufficient to turn the Company profitable in the immediate future. In fact, the Company has financed the acquisition of Drew Shoe with convertible notes and bank debt that add significant cash and non-cash charges for interest and financing and, as amended in April 1998, the convertible notes need to be refinanced prior to April 16, 1999. The Company is now a medical footwear and technology company with a focus on: (i) building its presence in medical footwear and related industries through internal growth and planned acquisitions, (ii) advancing the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and (iii) developing new technologies including its proprietary "microvalve." The Company believes that the medical footwear and related businesses is a fragmented business with expansion opportunities for the Company. There is no assurance that such opportunities will materialize, can be financed by the Company, or result in profitable operations. As a result of the April 16, 1999 maturity of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes, the Company may be subject to default and foreclosure on all of its assets if it is unable to refinance or restructure such obligation. Should such a default occur, it would represent an event of default under Drew Shoe's revolving credit and term loan agreement with a bank. Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. Reference is made to "Risk Factors - Secured Debt Coming Due in 1999", "Charges to Operations Related to Recent Financings", "Description of Securities, 10%/13% Redeemable Convertible Notes", "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" as well as other areas of this Prospectus for a more complete understanding of the Drew Shoe acquisition, the discontinued operations and the effect of the April 1998 restructure of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes. On May 21, 1998, the Company was notified that it no longer meets the net tangible assets, the market capital or the net income requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market and that a review would be made of the Company's eligibility for continued listing. On June 5, 1998 the Company responded to NASDAQ's request regarding this matter, on June 9, 1998 NASDAQ determined not to accept the Company's plan and on June 15, 1998 the Company requested an oral hearing on this matter. On June 29, 1998, NASDAQ granted the Company's request for an oral hearing and a "stay" of the delisting. On July 21, 1998, the Company submitted certain objections to the determination by Nasdaq as well as an update of its plans to achieve and maintain compliance. The Company's hearing was conducted on August 6, 1998 and no determination has yet been communicated to the Company. RISK FACTORS The securities offered hereby are speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk, and should only be purchased by investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment. Each prospective investor should carefully consider the following risks, as well as other information, described elsewhere in this Prospectus (see especially "Risk Factors" as well as the financial statements of the Company and of Drew Shoe as well as pro-forma financial data of the Company and of Drew Shoe included elsewhere in this Prospectus), before purchasing the securities offered hereby. This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. When used herein, the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," and "expect" and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from the results expected in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed in the following risk factors. Secured Debt Coming Due in 1999. The Company presently has approximately $9,322,000 face amount of secured debt coming due in 1999, including $6,390,000 (including $390,000 of interest "paid in kind" at March 31, 1998) 10%/13% Convertible Notes which are due on April 16, 1999 (the "Convertible Notes") and approximately $2,789,000 of revolving credit bank debt due on September 19, 1999 (the "Revolving Notes") (together, the "Secured Obligations"). A default of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes would be an event of default under the Revolving Notes and under a separate Term Loan with a bank (balance of approximately $929,000 at March 31, 1998) thereby making such obligations currently payable which, if not paid, could result in foreclosure on the security and guarantee. Other unsecured obligations also come due or have scheduled payments presently and during this period and another secured obligation has scheduled payments in 1998 and 1999. The Convertible Notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company, including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, except the assets of Drew Shoe, and the Revolving Notes and Term Loan are secured by all of the assets of Drew Shoe and guaranteed by the Company. The Company presently does not have the resources to satisfy either the Convertible Notes or the Revolving Notes and Term Loan and could, therefore find itself in default of the payment terms, thereby permitting the secured creditors to foreclose on their security. The restructuring of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes will result in charges to operations and/or stockholders' equity which aggregate approximately $2.5 million and will be recorded in the quarter ending June 30, 1998. The risk exists that charges of this magnitude may be confusing to investors and may have a depressive effect on the price of the stock. (Also see "Risk Factors - Delisting from NASDAQ SmallCap Market"). The Company's plan is to restructure or refinance such Secured Obligations prior to their maturities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its plan to restructure or refinance such Secured Obligations and that, therefore, the secured creditors may be in a position to foreclose on all of the assets of the Company. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation", "Description of Securities", and "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements". Delisting from Nasdaq SmallCap Market. On May 21,1998, the Company was notified that the Company no longer meets the net tangible assets, the market capital or the net income requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and that a review would be made of the Company's eligibility for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The criteria for listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market is discussed in the following paragraphs. On June 5, 1998, the Company responded to the Nasdaq Stock Market's request for the Company's proposal for achieving compliance. On June 9, 1998, the Nasdaq Stock Market informed the Company that it determined not to accept the Company's plan for achieving compliance and that the Company's securities would be delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market on June 17, 1998. On June 15, 1998, the Company requested an oral hearing on this matter. On June 29, 1998, the Nasdaq Stock Market granted the Company's request for a hearing and advised that the delisting would be stayed. On July 21, 1998 the Company submitted certain objections to the determination by Nasdaq as well as an update of its plans to achieve and maintain compliance. The Company's hearing was conducted on August 6, 1998 and no determination has yet been communicated to the Company. At March 31, 1998, the Company did not meet the requirements for continued listing by NASDAQ. Further, the Company will not meet such standards when it finalizes its June 30, 1998 consolidated financial statements. The private placement of common stock and warrants in April 1998, net of estimated expenses, increased net tangible assets by approximately $1.8 million, however, the Company expects to take aggregate charges of approximately $2.5 million to operations and/or stockholders' equity as a result of the restructuring of the Convertible Notes (discussed elsewhere herein). Such charges will be reported in the June 30, 1998 quarter. As a result, the Company's securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market unless Nasdaq grants the Company's request to continue its listing, notwithstanding this deficiency, in order to permit the Company to complete its plan for compliance. Should the Company's securities be delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap market the Company would then need to meet the criteria for new listing in order to be reincluded on the Nasdaq SmallCap market. On August 22, 1997 the Securities and Exchange Commission approved NASDAQ proposed changes to its current listing criteria (the "new requirements"). Under the new requirements, for initial listing the Company, generally, must have (i) net tangible assets of at least $4,000,000, or a market capitalization of at least $50,000,000, or net income in two of the last three years of $750,000; (ii) a minimum of 1,000,000 shares publicly held; (iii) a minimum of $5,000,000 in market value of public float; (iv) a minimum bid price of $4.00 per share; (v) a minimum of 300 shareholders; (vi) an operating history of one year or a market capitalization of $50,000,000; and (vii) implementation of corporate governance requirements. Under the rules for continued listing, the Company, generally, must have (i) net tangible assets, as defined, of $2,000,000, or a market capitalization of at least $35,000,000, or net income in two of the last three years of at least $500,000; (ii) a minimum of 500,000 shares publicly held; (iii) a minimum of $1,000,000 in market value of public float; (iv) a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share; (v) a minimum of 300 shareholders; and (vi) implementation of corporate governance requirements. NASDAQ has indicated that companies failing to satisfy the new continued listing requirements will be generally allowed until February 1998 to meet these new requirements by demonstrating, among other things, compliance with the previous requirements. NASDAQ has also indicated that a company's ability to sustain long term compliance is a factor they review in non-compliance situations. Disclosure Relating to Low Priced Securities; Possible Restrictions on Resales of Low Priced Securities and on Broker-Dealer Sales; Possible Adverse Effect of "Penny Stock" Rules on Liquidity for the Company's Securities. In the event that the Company is unable to satisfy the NASDAQ maintenance requirements, trading of the Common Stock will be conducted in the NASD's Electronic Bulletin Board or the "pink sheets". In the absence of the Company's securities being quoted on NASDAQ, or the Company having $4,000,000 in net tangible assets or market capitalization of $50,000,000, trading in the securities would continue to be covered by Rule 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act for non-NASDAQ and non-exchange listed securities. If the Company's securities were removed from Nasdaq (see "Delisting from NASDAQ SmallCap Market" above), they may become subject to Rule 15c2-6 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"), which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers which sell such securities to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors" (generally, individuals with net worths in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by this Rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. Consequently, such Rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and may affect the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell any of the securities acquired hereby in the secondary market. The commission has adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be any non-Nasdaq equity security that has a market price (as therein defined) less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions (see below). For any transaction by broker-dealers involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market prior to any such transaction. Disclosure is also required to be made about compensation payable to both broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. The foregoing penny stock restrictions will not apply to the Company's securities if such securities are listed on the Nasdaq National Market System, are otherwise listed on Nasdaq and have certain price and volume information provided on a current and average revenue criteria. There can be no assurance that the Company's securities will qualify for exemption from these restrictions. In any event, even if the Company's securities were exempt from any such restrictions, the Commission has the authority, pursuant to Section 15(b)(6) of the 1934 Act, to prohibit any person that is engaged in unlawful conduct while participating in a distribution of a penny stock from associating with a broker-dealer or participating in a distribution of a penny stock, if the Commission finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest. If the Company's securities were subject to the rules on penny stocks, the market liquidity for the Company's securities could be severely adversely affected. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such exceptions include an equity security listed on NASDAQ and an equity security issued by an issuer that has (i) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for three years, (ii) net tangible assets of at least $5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years, or (iii) average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the preceding three years. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith. As a result the market liquidity for such securities has been severely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell securities. There is no assurance that trading in the Company's securities will not be subject to these or other regulations that would adversely affect the market for such securities. See "Risk Factor - Delisting from Nasdaq SmallCap Market". History of Operating Losses; Effect of Recent Acquisition of Drew Shoe and Recent Discontinued or Sold Businesses. The Company has been a software technology and consulting company specializing in ergonomic solutions for individuals, government and corporations, and has incurred significant operating losses since its inception. The Company's revenues have historically been derived principally from ergonomic consulting services. The Company recently sold its Ergonomic Consulting Services business (February 1998) and discontinued its HumanCAD Systems operations (February 1998). The Company reported a net loss of $6,036,000 (including approximately $2,423,000 of financing charges which will not recur after September 1998 and approximately $1,376,000 of losses related to discontinued operations) for the year ended December 31, 1997. Net losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 were approximately $1,514,000 (including approximately $245,000 from discontinued operations). Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 totaled approximately $4,183,000 (including $1,493,000 in financing charges which will not recur after September 1998, non-recurring charge for compensatory element of 1997 options approved in 1998 of $858,000 and loss from discontinued operations of $803,000). Since inception, the Company has accumulated deficits which aggregate, at March 31, 1998 (unaudited), approximately $23,420,000. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe, a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear. The Company believes that the acquisition of Drew Shoe provides it with several opportunities including: (a) the possibility of incorporating its IST technology into medical footwear, (b) significant revenue and operations, (c) growth opportunities through possible acquisitions in the medical footwear and related industries. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to capitalize on such opportunities or achieve profitable operations. Further, the operations of Drew Shoe taken by themselves and at levels which can reasonably be expected to be attained in the short-term, are not expected to be sufficient to result in profitable operations for the Company. The Company's operations are subject to numerous risks associated with the establishment and development of a business and the commercialization of new technologies. Although the Company has recently acquired Drew Shoe, the operations of Drew Shoe alone are not sufficient to turn the Company profitable in the immediate future. Further, the Company has financed the acquisition of Drew Shoe with Convertible Notes and bank debt that have added significant cash and non-cash charges for interest and financing as well as a need to refinance $6,390,000 face amount of convertible notes coming due in April 1999. (See "Risk Factors - Secured Debt Coming Due in April 1999", "Charges to Operations Related to Recent Financings" and "Description of Securities, 10%/13% Redeemable Convertible Notes" as well as "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements"). There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or sustain profitable operations through the Drew acquisition or through the business strategy articulated above. Ongoing Operation of Drew Shoe; Operating History and Profitability. Drew Shoe was incorporated approximately 60 years ago and has been in business for approximately 125 years. The company was primarily a comfort shoe manufacturer until 1992, when it shifted its focus to medical footwear, which had previously comprised only a small portion of the company's business. Accordingly, Drew Shoe has only a five year operating history in the medical footwear business. In fiscal 1996, Drew Shoe had net income of approximately $26,000 on sales of approximately $14,609,000 and in the approximately eight and one half months of 1997 prior to its acquisition by the Company on September 22, 1997, Drew Shoe had revenues of approximately $11,124,000 and net income of approximately $191,000. There can be no assurance that Drew Shoe will be profitable. Although Drew Shoe has experienced moderate revenue growth since it shifted its focus to medical footwear, such growth may not be sustainable and may not be indicative of future operating results. See "Management of Growth; Risks Associated with Expansion; Capital Requirements". Drew Shoe's prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by manufacturers and, to some extent, retailers, in the process of shifting their sales and marketing efforts to new end users and, in effect, anticipating growth from a new target market. In order to address these risks, Drew Shoe must, among other things, respond to competitive developments, attract, retain and motivate qualified persons, and continue to develop its expertise in marketing, product development and customer service as well as improve its information systems. There can be no assurance that Drew Shoe will be successful in addressing these risks. The failure of Drew Shoe to achieve significant profitability would have a material adverse effect on the Company. Charges to Operations Related to Recent Financings. During 1997 a subsidiary of the Company (BCA Services, Inc.) completed an aggregate $1,200,000 private offering of its Preferred Stock, and warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock, to accredited investors. The shares of Preferred Stock were convertible into the Company's Common Stock as defined (See "Description of Securities - Preferred Stock of BCA Services"). On September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes") and warrants to eight investors for an aggregate consideration of $6,000,000 (now $6,390,000 as a result of the payment in kind of the March 19, 1998 interest). The Convertible Notes, as amended, are due on April 16, 1999, unless at any time after September 19, 1998, they are converted, as amended, at $.78 per share, into 8,192,308 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of its convertible notes (on the same terms), in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% annually with semi-annual compounding. Warrants were also issued to the noteholders for the purchase, as amended, of 2,034,884 shares of common stock, are exercisable at $1.72 per share at any time prior to September 19, 2002. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued Statement D-60 which requires special accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "in the money" at the date of issuance. Such accounting requires that the beneficial value of such conversion feature be charged to operations (in the case of a convertible note) or to retained earnings as dividends (in the case of a preferred stock) over a period reflecting the shortest period in which the investor has to exercise under the most favorable terms to the investor (based upon the traded market price, without discount, compared to the conversion amount). As a result of such accounting, the Company expects to charge approximately $5,925,000 related to the Convertible Notes to interest and financing costs ratably over a one year period beginning on September 19, 1997. An additional approximately $219,000 of beneficial value arises as a result of the March 19, 1998 payment of interest by issuance of additional Convertible Notes. Such amount is being amortized over the remaining six months during which such Convertible Notes may not be converted. The Company also has charged amounts related to the issuance of $1,200,000 of the Preferred Stock of BCA Services, Inc. (approximately $788,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997) to minority interests immediately. These charges are in addition to charges to amortize the debt discount in connection with the Convertible Notes (estimated to be approximately $1,872,000) and the related deferred financing costs (estimated to approximate $825,000) over the term of the Convertible Notes (originally five years and now through April 16, 1999). The risk exists that non-cash charges of the magnitude described above (for example, more than $10,500,000 over the twelve months from September 1997 to September 1998) may be confusing to investors or otherwise have a depressive effect on the valuation of the Company's common stock. Competition. The market for the wholesale distribution and retail distribution of medical footwear and comfort shoes is intensely competitive. Drew Shoe faces strong existing competition for similar products and will face significant competition from new companies or existing companies with new products. Many of these companies may be better financed, have better name recognition and goodwill, have more marketing expertise and capabilities, have a larger and more loyal customer base, along with other attributes, that may enable them to compete more effectively. Drew Shoe has no proprietary technology with respect to the design or manufacture of its medical footwear products. The market for medical footwear, and for casual shoes, which may be perceived by many consumers as a substitute for medical footwear, includes a number of well-established companies with recognized brand names. Potential purchases of medical footwear are often based upon highly subjective decisions that may be influenced by numerous factors, many of which are out of Drew Shoe's control. As a result, Drew Shoe may face substantial competition from existing and new companies that market both medical and comfort shoes that are perceived to meet needs for comfort and protection, and are visually appealing. There can be no assurance as to the market acceptance of Drew shoes in relation to its competition. Reliance on a Single Major Product Line. Drew Shoe has relied to a large extent on medical footwear for sales. In addition, over 60% of its sales are women's shoes. If sales of these products are less than projected, Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition would be materially adversely affected. In addition, while only a minor percentage of Drew Shoe's revenue is currently related to the 1994 Federal legislation which provides for Medicare funding of shoes for diabetics, the Company has anticipated that some portion of its future growth will be related to this factor as individuals become aware of this Medicare reimbursable benefit. If Drew Shoe is not successful in promoting this opportunity, Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected. Reliance on Certain Distribution Channels and Significant Customer. Drew Shoe relies on its own specialty retail stores for approximately 25% of its sales, the Veteran's Administration for approximately 11% of its sales, and approximately 2,000 specialty retail stores as customers for the remainder of its sales. The Company is presently evaluating the effectiveness of its present retail stores and is exploring other distribution channels and products for possible future growth. There is no assurance that its present distribution channels or potential future distribution channels will be effective or result in profitable operations. There is no assurance that the Company will conclude to continue to operate its specialty retail stores which result in approximately 25% of revenues. Further, there can be no assurance that the Veteran's Administration will remain a major customer. Dependence on Certain Suppliers; Foreign Suppliers. Drew Shoe depends on various raw materials and components to manufacture its shoes, many of which are dependent on one supplier. Drew Shoe does not have binding long-term supply contracts with these suppliers. Therefore, Drew Shoe's success will depend on maintaining its relationships with these suppliers and developing relationships with new suppliers. Any significant delay or disruption in the supply of leather and other key materials caused by manufacturers' production limitations, material shortages, quality control problems, labor interruptions, shipping problems or other reasons would materially adversely affect the Company's business. The delays in receiving such supplies from alternative sources would cause Drew Shoe to sustain at least temporary shortages of materials which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Approximately 15% of Drew Shoe's supplies, primarily leather, are provided by Italian companies. As a result, the supply of some of the materials required to manufacture Drew's shoes is subject to additional cost and risk factors, many of which are out of the Company's control, including political instability, import duties, trade restrictions, work stoppages and foreign currency fluctuations. An interruption or material increase in the cost of supply would materially adversely affect Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition. Manufacturing and Inventory Systems. Drew Shoe's business is subject to inventory risk, in that its inventory turnover has been traditionally low and its lack of adequate inventory management systems has resulted in a significant writedown of inventory in 1996, which is greater than historical norms. Inventory losses are currently determined annually upon the occurrence of a physical inventory and subsequent reconciliation of the results against accounting records. The Company intends to improve, develop and implement inventory management systems to correct these problems. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so. Drew Shoe's business is also subject to manufacturing risk, in that its machinery and equipment may not be as modern as that of its competitors. Inventory management systems and other manufacturing improvements including manufacturing automation may require significant funding. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient funding to implement these improvements or that, even if funding is sufficient, the Company will be technically and operationally successful in implementing these improvements. Labor Contract. The Drew Shoe business is subject to potential increases in its labor cost, in that a substantial number of employees are covered by a union contract. Such contract calls for specific increases over the three year term ending May 2001. There can be no assurance that potential increases in labor costs can be passed through to the consumer in increased pricing or offset by greater efficiency. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that management will be able to maintain the quality of the labor/management relationship developed at Drew Shoe over the years. Dependence on Key Personnel; Retention of Personnel. The Company is dependent upon the services of Michael Strauss, the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company and Robert Wong, Vice Chairman, Chief Technology Officer. Additionally, the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary is dependent on the services of Charles Schuyler, President and Chief Executive Officer of Drew Shoe and Larry Martin, the Vice President of Finance of Drew Shoe. Although the Company currently has employment agreements with Michael Strauss (through the end of 1999), Robert Wong (through the end of 1998), Charles Schuyler (through September 2000) and Larry Martin (through September 1999), there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain the services of these key personnel. The loss of the services of such personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects. Currently, the Company has $4,000,000 (each) of term key man life insurance on the lives of Michael Strauss and Charles Schuyler. There is strong competition for qualified personnel in the technology and shoe manufacturing industries, and the loss of key personnel or an inability of Drew Shoe to attract, retain and motivate key personnel could adversely affect Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition. Susceptibility to General Economic Conditions. Because sales of shoes have historically been dependent, to some extent, on discretionary consumer spending, Drew Shoe's revenues are subject to fluctuations based upon the general economic conditions of the United States. If there is a general economic downturn or recession in the United States consumer spending on medical footwear could decline which could have a material adverse effect on Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition. Product Returns from Warranty. Drew Shoe, as part of its marketing efforts, accepts product returns for 30 days from the date of sale, and charges customers a $6 restocking fee. Drew Shoe has experienced an approximately 10% return rate over the past two years. The percentage has not varied significantly over the past 5 years. If the rate of returned product increases, Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Management of Growth; Risks Associated with Expansion; Capital Requirements. Drew Shoe's growth and expected growth has resulted in, and is expected to continue to result in, increased demands on Drew Shoe's management and its operating systems. This growth may require an increase in the number of employees and an increase in the responsibilities of both existing and new management personnel. This growth may result in a strain on Drew Shoe's existing operational, financial, human resource and information systems. Drew Shoe's financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures have evolved with the growth of Drew Shoe and there can be no assurance that Drew Shoe's controls, systems or procedures will continue to be adequate to support its operations. The Company expects that Drew Shoe will need to further develop its management controls, reporting systems and procedures to accommodate potential future growth and enhance current efficiency. There can be no assurance that Drew Shoe will be able to do so effectively and on a timely basis, and failure to do so when necessary could have a material adverse effect upon Drew Shoe's business, operating results and financial condition. Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations. Historically, sales of Drew Shoe products are not seasonal. However, sales revenue and profitability may vary from quarter to quarter based on the introduction of new products, opening of new stores, weather conditions, marketing and media expenditures, and certain non-recurring charges. Risks of Expansion and Acquisition Plan. The Company has incurred and continues to incur significant expenses to attract and retain qualified management personnel and consultants, and to seek out potential acquisition candidates consistent with its growth strategy. There is no assurance that the Company's expenditures on such activities will result in any acquisitions or, if it does result in acquisitions, that such acquisitions can be financed on a satisfactory basis or at all, or that such potential acquisitions will result in profitable operations. Limited Rights to Certain Products. In certain cases, the Company has assisted clients of its discontinued Ergonomic Consulting Business to develop products in response to a specific request of such client. In such cases, the client may have funded all or a significant portion of the Company's development costs. Although the Company believes that it owns the rights to develop any products derived from work performed, including certain products under development by the Company, no assurance can be given that any client which has retained the Company will not in the future assert the right to restrict the Company's activities with respect to any technology developed or claim rights to products sought to be commercialized by the Company. Lack of Patent Protection; Reliance on Trade Secret and Copyright Protection. In the Company's IST and "microvalve" technology business the Company has obtained eight issued patents and has six pending patents. There can be no assurance that its technologies are entitled to patent protection or that the claims in the pending patent applications (currently six) will be issued as patents, that any issued patents will provide the Company with significant competitive advantages, or that challenges will not be instituted against the validity or enforceability of any patents owned by the Company or, if instituted, that such challenges will not be successful. The cost of litigation to uphold the validity of a patent and prevent infringement can be substantial even if the Company prevails. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar technologies, duplicate the Company's technology or design around the patented aspects of the Company's technology or that the Company will not infringe on patents or other rights owned by third parties. The Company protects its proprietary written material, know-how, computer software and technology which it has or may develop, through the use of copyrights, common-law trade secret protection, trademarks and service marks, and contractual arrangements. These laws provide only limited protection, however, since they do not protect the "ideas" or "concepts" reflected in such materials or software, but only protect the expression of the "ideas" or "concepts" contained therein. While the Company generally enters into confidentiality arrangements with its employees, consultants and customers, and implements various measures to maintain "trade secret" protection for its products in an attempt to maintain the proprietary nature of its products, there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful. Accordingly, there is no assurance that competitors may not develop products, materials or software which perform similar or identical functions as the Company's products or proprietary software without infringing upon the Company's copyrights or violating trade secret laws. The legal and factual issues arising in copyright or trade secret litigation are often both complex and unclear and any attempt to enforce the Company's rights thereunder will face both the high cost of litigation and the uncertainty of the result. Government Regulation. The Company does not believe that its present and currently proposed activities are generally subject to any material government regulation in the United States or other countries. It is possible that certain products developed by the Company in the future as an adjunct to its ergonomics business, might be deemed under new legislation or regulations to be "medical devices" or otherwise be subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Food and Drug Administration or similar agencies. In the event that any product is subject to such governmental regulation, the Company will be required to obtain any necessary approvals, which could delay or, in certain circumstances, even prevent the introduction to the marketplace of such product and result in significant expense. Shares Eligible for Future Sale. Upon issuance of all shares of Common Stock registered hereby, the Company will have 22,825,044 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Additionally, the Company will have options warrants and convertible securities that could result in the issuance of an additional over 24,000,000 shares of common stock. See "Description of Securities". Holders of options and warrants are likely to exercise them when, in all likelihood, the Company could obtain additional capital on terms more favorable than those provided by such options or warrants. Further, while such options warrants and convertible securities are outstanding, they may adversely affect the terms on which the Company can obtain additional capital. In addition, future sales of Common Stock could depress the market price of the Company's Common Stock. Dilutive Effects of the Shares Being Registered. Investors in the common shares offered hereby will be subject to immediate and substantial dilution to their investment. No Dividends. The Company has paid no cash dividends on its Common Stock since its inception, is precluded from paying cash dividends on its Common Stock under its 10%/13% Convertible Notes and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Market Overhang. Future sales of common stock could depress the market price of the Company's Common Stock. Further, the options, warrants and convertible securities presently outstanding are exercisable/convertible into a total of over 24,000,000 shares. The exercise/conversion of such instruments could adversely affect the market for the Common Stock, and any sale of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to such options, warrants and convertible securities could also depress the market price of the Common Stock. (See "Description of Securities"). Non-Registration in Certain Jurisdictions of Shares Underlying Warrants and Options. Holders of the Warrants or Options may reside in or move to jurisdictions in which the common shares underlying the securities may not be registered or otherwise qualified for sale during the period that the securities are exercisable. In this event, the Company would be unable to issue common shares unless and until the shares could be qualified for sale in jurisdictions in which such purchasers reside, or an exemption to such qualification exists in such jurisdiction. The Company has no obligation to effect any such registration or qualification. If the Company elects to attempt such registration or qualification, no assurances can be given that the Company will be able to effect any required registration or qualification. Notwithstanding this, the Company intends to put forth its best efforts to cause this registration statement to be effective by approximately August 13, 1998. However, no assurances can be given that the statement will be effective on or about that date. The Company has qualified the offering in the following states: Alabama, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin. See "Description of Securities". Discretion in Use of Proceeds Designated for Working Capital. With respect to any proceeds that the Company receives from the conversion of the warrants or options, when and if that occurs, the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of the proceeds. While such funds are to be applied for working capital and general purposes in furtherance of the Company's business, investors will be reliant on management as to the specific applications of the proceeds. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The Common Stock of the Company is quoted primarily on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market under the symbol BCAM. It is also traded on the Boston Stock Exchange under the symbol BAM. The following table sets forth the high and low closing bid quotations for the Common Stock as reported by NASDAQ and the Boston Stock Exchange for each calendar quarter during 1997 and 1996. The NASDAQ Small Cap market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without retail markup, markdown or commission and do not necessarily represent actual transactions.

The 1998 Private Placement Warrants are exercisable no later than April 22, 2001. Assuming the exercise of the Warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock, the Company would receive aggregate proceeds of approximately $500,000 (before any expenses). If the Company were to receive such proceeds indicated above, said proceeds would be utilized for general working capital purposes. The Company may also use working capital for acquisitions. The foregoing represents the Company's best estimate of its use of the net proceeds from any exercise of the 1998 Private Placement Warrants based upon the current state of its business operations, its current plans and current economic and industry conditions. Further events, including the problems, delays, expenses and complications frequently encountered by businesses as well as changes in economic, regulatory or competitive conditions or the success or lack thereof of the Company's research and marketing activities and planned acquisitions, may require reallocation of funds or may require the delay, abandonment or reduction of the Company's efforts. CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company at March 31, 1998 (unaudited) and pro-forma at March 31, 1998 to reflect: (1) the issuance and sale of the 1,980,198 shares of Common Stock and warrants in the April 1998 Private Placement yielding gross proceeds of $2,000,000, (2) the issuance of an additional 2,019,802 shares of Common Stock to account for the repricing provisions of the April 1998 Private Placement, (3) 100,000 shares of Common Stock issued in April 1998 upon exercise of the Class AA warrants for gross proceeds of approximately $65,000 and (4) charges related to the restructure of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes including the write-off of approximately $564,000 of deferred finance costs and approximately $1,087,000 of debt discount due to the shortened maturity, the write-off of approximately $281,000 of unamortized debt discount related to the warrants given up by the noteholders and accrual of approximately $552,000 of minority interest for the 10% interest in subsidiaries given up to the noteholders. "As adjusted" amounts reflect the assumed issuance of 250,000 shares upon exercise of the 1998 Private Placement Warrants. This information does not reflect losses from operations subsequent to March 31, 1998. See "Notes 6, 7 and 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements".

- ---------- (1) Secured debt with a face value of approximately $9,322,000 comes due in 1999 beginning with approximately $6,390,000 in Convertible Notes due in April 1998. The Company presently does not have the resources to satisfy this obligation when it comes due. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements", "Risk Factors". SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The summary historical financial data set forth below is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 1997 and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 and from the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 (date of acquisition by the Company) and for the year ended December 31, 1996 as well as the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 1998 and for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company has accounted for the acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the Company's financial position at December 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998 (unaudited) includes the financial position of Drew Shoe based upon an allocation of the purchase price of Drew Shoe. The Company's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 include the operations of Drew Shoe for approximately three and one half months since its acquisition by the Company. The Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 (unaudited) include the operations of Drew Shoe for the entire period and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 do not include the operations of Drew Shoe. The summary pro-forma operations data set forth below shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of January 1, 1997. This information is derived from the financial statements described above as well as the pro-forma information appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non-recurring charges which are discussed in Notes 6 and 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company) and the amortization of preliminary fair value adjustments principally for increased depreciation and amortization. The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficient available net operating losses to offset anticipated profits from Drew Shoe, if any. The summary pro-forma balance sheet data presented below reflects: (1) the proceeds, net of estimated expenses, of the private offering of $2,000,000 of Common Stock and Warrants in April 1998 (see "Recent Events") and (2) the material charges and adjustments that result from the April 1998 restructure of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes (see "Recent Events"). The summary pro-forma financial data should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and Drew Shoe referred to above as well as to the unaudited pro-forma information of the Company and Drew Shoe, also included elsewhere in this prospectus. Pro-forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which would have been achieved had the Company actually acquired Drew Shoe on January 1, 1997.

At December 31, 1997, an estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in the acquisition of Drew Shoe has been made. Based upon such evaluation at December 31, 1997, there is not a material amount of goodwill recorded in the acquisition of Drew Shoe. (b) Pro-forma column excludes non-recurring charges including: (i) the application of Emerging Issues Task Force pronouncement D-60 for the beneficial value of the conversion feature of certain financings completed in 1997, including $788,000 related to a convertible preferred stock of a subsidiary (charge to minority interest), an initial amount, through December 31, 1997, of approximately $1,635,000 related to a convertible note payable (interest and financing cost), (ii) the write off of approximately $130,000 of costs associated with financings which the Company elected not to complete (interest and financing costs) and (iii) the aggregate charges to operations and extraordinary item of approximately $2.2 million. Such charges are excluded from the summary pro-forma information above because they are non-recurring in nature. The pro-forma column includes the 10% minority interest received by the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes as part of the April 1998 debt restructure agreement. See "Financial Statements", "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements", "Risk Factors - Secured Debt Coming Due in 1999", "Charges to Operations from Recent Financings", "Recent Events: Acquisition of Drew Shoe Corporation and Related Acquisition Financing (Including April 1998 Restructuring of Such Financing)" and "Description of Securities" for a fuller discussion.

Such charges include; (i) the write-off of an aggregate of approximately $564,000 of deferred finance costs and approximately $1,087,000 of debt discount that results from the shortened term to maturity of the Convertible Notes, (ii) the write-off of unamortized debt discount of approximately $281,000 that resulted from the original issuance of the warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock which the noteholders gave up and (iii) the charge, an extraordinary item, of approximately $552,000 as the value of the 10% minority interest in Drew Shoe and BCAM Technology given to the noteholders. (d) See "Risk Factors" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" regarding very material secured debt coming due in April 1999 which the Company presently does not have the ability to satisfy. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below in "Factors That May Affect Future Results". Overview The Company has historically been a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996 and has been in business for approximately 125 years. Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential new product opportunities through utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) into Drew Shoe products and a platform for further possible acquisition of medical footwear and related business. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business as discussed in Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements. In late February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of the HumanCAD software division as discussed in Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. Such revenues, taken by themselves and at levels which can reasonably be expected to be attained in the short term, are not expected to be sufficient to result in profitable operations for the Company. The Company is now a medical footwear and technology company with a focus on: (i) building its presence in medical footwear and related industries through internal growth and planned acquisitions, (ii) advancing the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and (iii) developing new technologies including its proprietary "microvalve." The Company has collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and with MCNC which provide resources in potentially strengthening the Company's technologies. Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. While the Company believes that it presently has the liquidity to satisfy its planned operations through March 1999, in April 1999 very material secured obligations must be satisfied. The Company presently does not have the resources to satisfy such obligations and therefore could not prevent foreclosure on all of the assets of the Company. See "Risk Factors" and "Consolidated Financial Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation". See also "Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements" regarding the restructure of certain long-term debt. For the year ended December 31, 1997 compared to the year ended December 31, 1996 - Results of Operations Results of operations for 1997 are significantly impacted by restructuring developments including: (1) the acquisition of Drew Shoe (2) the sale of the Ergonomic Consulting Services business and the discontinuation of HumanCAD Systems division and (3) charges and costs related to the financing to acquire Drew Shoe and other financing during the year. Drew Shoe acquisition - Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor (presently both wholesale and retail) of medical footwear. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the results of operations of Drew Shoe are consolidated with the Company's 1997 operations for approximately three and one half months beginning on September 22, 1997. Drew Shoe had operating income of approximately $112,000 (before subsidiary interest and finance costs, net of interest income, of approximately $106,000). Further, the Company expects to take steps to build the revenue base and profitability of Drew Shoe. The Company expects that its revenues in the near term will be principally from Drew Shoe. Discontinued operations - As discussed in greater detail in "Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements", the Company has recorded the operations of the Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD") and HumanCAD Systems operations ("HCAD") as discontinued operations. The two divisions represented combined revenues and operating losses of approximately $602,000 and $1,356,000, respectively, in 1997. These divisions were discontinued because ECSD did not generate operating profits for the Company and HCAD required capital which the Company could not obtain on favorable terms. Because the measurement date for the HumanCAD discontinuance is in late February 1998, there have been additional losses of approximately $803,000 recorded from this activity until its discontinuance in the first quarter of 1998. Charges and costs related to financings (including minority interest charge) - Interest and financing costs for the year ended December 31, 1997 consisted principally of: (i) non-cash amortization of Unamortized charge for beneficial debt conversion of approximately $1,635,000 as a result of the application of EITF Statement D-60, (ii) costs of financings which the Company chose not to complete of approximately $130,000, (iii) amortization of debt discount of approximately $180,000, and (iv) interest cost of approximately $300,000. See "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements" regarding the significant non-cash charge which results from the accounting under EITF Statement D-60. In addition to the interest and financing costs discussed above, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of approximately $788,000 to minority interests during 1997. This charge reflects the accounting for the beneficial conversion feature of subsidiary preferred stock issued during 1997. Such accounting, in accordance with EITF Statement D-60 is described in "Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Ongoing selling, general and administrative costs - Ongoing selling, general and administrative costs before considering such costs at the acquired company (Drew Shoe) totaled approximately $1,501,000 in 1997 compared to approximately $1,408,000 in 1996. The increase consists principally of approximately $150,000 related to increases in executive compensation and bonuses over the prior year, offset by various decreases. The Company recorded a charge of approximately $1.2 million (including approximately $286,000 related to discontinued operations) in the first quarter of 1998 related to stock options granted in 1997 (at their fair market value) which were approved by the shareholders in February 1998 when the market price of the Company's stock exceeded the option price. Research and development costs - In 1997, research and development costs consist principally of costs associated with the Company's development of a "microvalve" in collaboration with a third party, MCNC. License revenues - License revenues consist principally of revenues received from IST products and have not been significant in 1997 or 1996. One Company licensee, Textron, has launched a new product, in September 1997, utilizing IST in an automobile seat. It is expected that such product would generate license revenues for the Company in approximately the fourth quarter of 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources The September 22, 1997 purchase of Drew Shoe results in a significant change to the financial position, working capital, capital resources and liquidity of the Company. This results from: (i) the issuance of $6,000,000 of 10%/13% Convertible Notes, due as amended in April 1999, and Warrants, (ii) the secured credit facility with a bank and (iii) the purchase of significant operating assets in Drew Shoe (principally inventory, receivables, facilities and equipment), net of expenses and liabilities associated with the transactions. The Company's financial position, working capital and liquidity was also affected by the July and September issuance of an aggregate of $1,200,000 of convertible preferred stock of a subsidiary, all of which has been converted into common stock of the Company at March 31, 1998 (see "Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements") and the January through March 1997 private placement of common stock and warrants for an aggregate consideration of $1,075,000. The changes in Company's financial position are reflected in the following table: December 31, 1997 December 31, 1996 ----------------- ----------------- Cash $ 1,594,000 $ 526,000 Inventory $ 6,278,000 $ 0 Working capital $ 6,716,000 $ 438,000 Long-term debt (see below) $ 7,972,000 $ 0 Total Assets $14,177,000 $1,304,000 Shareholders equity $ 2,094,000 $1,015,000 See "Notes 5, 6 and 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements" for a description of the acquisition of Drew Shoe and the terms of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes, secured credit facility, convertible preferred stock and short term note payable. The structure of the secured credit facility with a bank is such that Drew Shoe cannot transfer cash to the Company other than in the ordinary course of business. Subsequent to December 31, 1997 a planned financing directed toward the development and marketing efforts of the HumanCAD Systems business was terminated by the potential funding source. The losses of that division in the first quarter of 1998 were approximately $803,000. At December 31, 1997, the Company required additional capital in order to fund its operations during 1998. In April 1998, the Company completed a private placement that raised an aggregate $2,000,000 through the issuance of common stock and warrants (See - "Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities" and "Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements"). This financing would permit the Company to continue to pursue its business strategy until approximately April 1999. At that time, the Company will require additional capital to satisfy obligations coming due and to pursue its business plan (however, see next paragraph). Further, the capital raised in the 1998 Private Placement would most likely not be sufficient to fund any significant acquisitions and is not planned to be used for that purpose. The Company expects that it will be required to raise additional capital in order to fund its acquisition strategy and to develop and exploit its "microvalve". On April 14, 1998, the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes agreed to restructure the 10%/13% Convertible Notes (See -- "Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities", "Risk Factors - Secured Debt Coming Due in 1999 ", and "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements"). As part of the restructuring, the Company agreed to accelerate repayment of the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, to grant a 10% interest in Drew Shoe and BCAM Technologies and to secure the obligation with all of the assets of the Company. As a result, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation (presently $6,390,000) in less than one year or face default on the security. A default on this obligation would trigger a default on Drew Shoe's bank debt totaling approximately $3,718,000 at December 31, 1997. It is the Company's intention, the success of which cannot be assured, to refinance or otherwise restructure this Convertible Note obligation. If the Company is unable to restructure or refinance this obligation, the holders will have the right to foreclose on all of the assets of the Company and a default would be triggered on Drew Shoe's secured bank debt. For the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1997 - Results of Operations Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 continue to be significantly impacted by restructuring developments including: (1) the integration of the September 1997 acquisition of Drew Shoe, (2) the discontinuation of the Ergonomic Consulting Services Division and HumanCAD Systems business, (3) a charge to compensation expense for certain options granted during 1997 which were at exercise prices below the market value when approved by the shareholders in February 1998 and (4) charges and costs related to the financing to acquire Drew Shoe and other financing during the year. Drew Shoe acquisition - Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of its liabilities. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the results of operations of Drew Shoe are consolidated with the Company's operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998, but not for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Drew Shoe had operating income (before subsidiary interest and finance costs, net of interest income, of approximately $110,000) of approximately $142,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 1998. Further, the Company expects to take steps to build the revenue base and profitability of Drew Shoe. The Company expects that its revenues in the near term will be principally from Drew Shoe. Discontinued operations - As discussed in greater detail in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has recorded the operations of the Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD") and HumanCAD Systems business ("HCAD") as discontinued operations. The two divisions represented combined revenues and operating losses of approximately $202,000 and $803,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Provisions for losses on discontinuance of these operations of approximately $50,000 and $250,000 have been recorded to operations in the fourth quarter of 1997 and first quarter of 1998, respectively. Additionally, the three-months ended March 31, 1998 includes a charge to discontinued operations for approximately $286,000 for the compensatory element of stock options granted in 1997 and approved by the shareholders in February 1998. These divisions were discontinued because ECSD did not generate operating profits for the Company and HCAD required capital which the Company could not obtain on favorable terms. Charges and costs related to financings - Interest and financing costs for the three months ended March 31, 1998 consisted principally of: (i) non-cash amortization of Unamortized charge for beneficial debt conversion of approximately $1,493,000 as a result of the application of EITF Statement D-60, (ii) amortization of debt discount recorded to recognize estimated fair value of detachable warrants of approximately $95,000, (iii) amortization of Deferred finance costs of approximately $50,000 and (iv) accrual for interest and all other of approximately $350,000 (including approximately $90,000 to reflect the incremental interest (from 10% to 13%) associated with the Company's decision to make the March 19, 1998 interest payment in kind). See "Note 4 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" regarding the significant non-cash charge which results from the accounting under EITF Statement D-60. Ongoing selling, general and administrative costs - Selling, general and administrative costs increased from approximately $367,000 to approximately $1,910,000 principally as a result of the addition of such costs at Drew Shoe as well as increased corporate costs for compensation and professional fees. Research and development costs - In the three months ended March 31, 1998, research and development costs consist principally of costs associated with the Company's development of a "microvalve" in collaboration with a third party, MCNC. License revenues - License revenues consist principally of revenues received from IST products and have not been significant to date. One Company's licensee, Textron, has launched a new product, in September 1997, utilizing IST in an automobile seat. It is expected that such product may generate license revenues for the Company in approximately the fourth quarter of 1998. The Company cannot estimate the effect, if any, of the June and July 1998 strike by the United Auto Workers against General Motors on its ability to generate license revenue from this product in the second half of 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources From December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998 (unaudited), Company's financial position changed as follows: March 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 -------------- ----------------- (unaudited) Cash $ 656,000 $ 1,594,000 Working capital $ 5,805,000 $ 6,716,000 Long-term debt (see below) $ 8,567,000 $ 7,972,000 Total Assets $14,126,000 $14,177,000 Shareholders' equity $ 1,166,000 $ 2,094,000 On April 14, 1998, the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes agreed to restructure the 10%/13% Convertible Notes as discussed in "Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements". As part of the restructuring, the Company agreed to accelerate repayment of the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, to secure the obligation with all of the assets of the Company and to grant the holders a 10% interest in the Company's Drew Shoe and BCAM Technology subsidiaries, among other items. As a result, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation ($6,390,000, including interest paid in kind on March 19, 1998) in approximately one year or face default and possible foreclosure on the security. It is the Company's intention to refinance or otherwise restructure this obligation prior to its maturity. See "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements". At March 31, 1998, the Company required additional capital in order to fund its operations during 1998. During April 1998, the Company commenced a private placement and raised an aggregate $2,000,000 though the issuance of common stock and warrants. This financing would permit the Company to continue to pursue its business strategy for approximately 12 months. Thereafter, the Company will require additional capital to pursue its business plan, including to repay secured debt coming due in April 1999. Further, the capital raised in this financing would most likely not be sufficient to fund any significant acquisitions and is not planned to be used for that purpose. The Company expects that it may be required to raise substantial additional capital in order to fund its acquisition strategy and to develop and exploit its "microvalve". See "Recent Events" and "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" Factors That May Affect Future Results The Company's future operating results are dependent on the Company's ability to: (i) obtain sufficient capital to fund its debts when they come due (including secured debt coming due in 1999), development, growth and acquisition plans, (ii) generate profitable growth at Drew Shoe, (iii) generate sufficient profits from operations to fund its debt service, (iv) identify and successfully close potential acquisitions on terms that are favorable to the Company (v) achieve further successful development of IST and increase the number of licensees, and the commercialization of IST by its licensees, (vi) introduce IST in medical footwear and orthotic products and (vii) successfully develop the "microvalve", and in addition they are also dependent on, (viii) general economic conditions and conditions in the financial and medical footwear markets and related industries. Forward-Looking Statements Information set forth in this Prospectus regarding the Company's plans for future operations constitutes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the factors set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of this Prospectus. BUSINESS BCAM International Inc. (formerly Biomechanics Corporation of America prior to a name change effected June 22, 1995), was organized in 1984 under the laws of the State of New York. GENERAL BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") has historically been a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996 and has been in business for approximately 125 years. Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential new product opportunities through utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) into Drew Shoe products and a platform for further possible acquisition of medical footwear and related businesses. Drew Shoe's operations, taken by themselves and at levels which can reasonably be expected to be attained in the short-term, are not expected to be sufficient to result in profitable operations for the Company. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In late February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to seek alternative value for the operations of the HumanCAD Systems division as a result of the unavailability of financing, on acceptable terms to the Company, to further the necessary development activities of that division on a basis which would enhance shareholder value. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues have been and are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business and related industries. Revenues from Drew alone are not expected to be at a level sufficient for the Company to achieve a profit. The Company's strategic focus is on building its presence in the medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and its proprietary "microvalve". Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. On September 9, 1997, the Company announced that the 1998 Cadillac STS would offer, as an option, a driver and passenger seat utilizing the Company's IST technology through a license agreement with McCord Winn Textron Inc., a subsidiary of Textron Inc. Revenues from this product have not been material to date. The Company's principal subsidiaries consist of Drew Shoe Corporation (medical footwear), BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies), BCA Services, Inc. (principally human ergonomics consulting which has been sold), HumanCAD Systems, Inc. (principally software development and marketing which operations have been reduced substantially while the Company seeks a strategic alternative for that business). The Company is a now a medical footwear and technology company with a focus on: (i) building its presence in medical footwear and related industries through internal growth and planned acquisitions, (ii) accelerating the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and (iii) developing new technologies including its proprietary "microvalve." The Company has collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and with MCNC which provide valuable resources in strengthening the Company's technologies. The Company anticipates that its business plan will be enhanced, subject to the availability of capital, by the acquisition of additional operating businesses in the medical footwear and related businesses and by the further development, subject to availability of capital, and commercialization of IST and "microvalve". The Company hopes, over time, to incorporate its IST and "microvalve" technology into intelligent medical footwear and other products. There is no assurance that the Company can accomplish its plans or achieve profitable operations or raise the capital which would be necessary to achieve its plans. Each of the Company's present and other businesses is described below. (I) DREW SHOE CORPORATION Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. Drew has a 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility and a 40,000 square foot distribution, executive office and manufacturing facility in Lancaster, Ohio. Additionally, Drew operates approximately 15 retail medical footwear stores in various areas of the United States. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996. Drew relies, for distribution, on sales to approximately 2,000 retail stores (approximately 65%), sales to the Veterans Administration (approximately 11%) and sales through its 15 owned retail stores (approximately 25%). The Company is presently reviewing the effectiveness of its retail stores. Drew has been in business for over 125 years and was primarily a comfort shoe manufacturer and distributor until 1992, when it shifted its focus to medical footwear. Medical footwear had been a small portion of the Company's business prior to 1992. Approximately 60% or more of Drew Shoe's sales are of women's shoes. The Company intends to continue to operate Drew Shoe as a manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear. The Company believes that the industry in which Drew Shoe operates is fragmented, has several relatively small competitors and represents an opportunity for consolidation within the industry. Further, the Company believes that related industries such as custom orthotics and other comfort products may be a good synergistic fit for the Company and that such companies may also represent an opportunity for consolidation. In addition to the opportunities which may exist in the consolidation of medical footwear, orthotic and related industries, the Company believes that it brings important "comfort" technology which may have application in medical footwear and related products. As such, Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential opportunities through (i) a platform for possible further acquisitions of medical footwear and related businesses (ii) profit and systems improvement opportunities and (iii) the possible utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) in medical footwear, orthotic and other products. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be largely affected by the medical footwear business however, the operations of Drew Shoe alone are not expected to be sufficient to turn the Company profitable in the immediate future. The Company has financed the acquisition of Drew Shoe with convertible notes and bank debt that have added significant cash and non-cash charges for interest and financing. (See "Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities" and "Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements" for a discussion of the acquisition financing as well as the April 1998 restructure which secures the financing with Company assets and accelerates the maturity date of the obligation to April 1999.) (II) INTELLIGENT SURFACE TECHNOLOGY ("IST") Since 1991, the Company has developed technologies which resulted in eight issued patents, as well as various notice of allowance and additional patent filings related to its IST. IST empowers surfaces to automatically measure any part of the body touching that surface and then, in real time, adjust that surface to conform to that user's body to provide the ultimate in comfort and fit. Such a surface is considered an intelligent surface because it is able to learn about the user and recognize patterns of the user's activities through its proprietary software. The Company has identified applications for this technology in the primary areas of seating, footwear and bedding. In addition, the technology may be useful for handtools, exercise equipment, helmets, etc. The Company's strategy has been to license such technology to companies that can develop products that can exploit this technology. Current Licensees Textron. The Company and McCord Winn Textron Inc., a subsidiary of Textron Inc. ("Textron") signed a Development and License Agreement in March 1993, amended in October 1993 and August 1996, whereby the Company granted an exclusive worldwide license to Textron to use the IST patents and know-how in the manufacture, use and sale of seats, and seating components for the transportation industry, wheelchairs, office furniture applications and hospital beds. In September 1997, Textron began selling an automobile seat utilizing IST to the Cadillac Division of General Motors for inclusion, as optional equipment, in the driver and front passenger seat for the 1998 Cadillac Seville STS model. Textron is obligated to pay the Company a royalty, after deduction of an agreed upon credit ($150,000) over four or more years, for the use of the Company's technology in the sale of the systems. There were no revenues in the 1997 financial statements, and only $2,000 of revenue recognized in the first quarter of 1998 financial statements, from the sales of Textron. The Company anticipates, but cannot assure, based upon the information on sales activity and other information provided by Textron, that it will record license revenues in the second half of 1998. The August 1996 amendment obligated Textron to pay royalties to the Company through December 31, 1999, for any products designed using the Company's IST. After January 1, 2000, Textron shall be obligated to pay the Company royalties only for any products designed which actually incorporate IST patents and know-how transmitted to Textron by the Company after May 31, 1996. The Company has disclosed to Textron that it has received four patents and one "Notice of Allowance" after May 31, 1996. Reebok. In January 1994, the Company and Reebok International Ltd. ("Reebok") signed a world-wide exclusive licensing and development agreement for the use of IST for certain footwear. In addition, Reebok has a right of first refusal to obtain exclusive licenses to use IST on athletic, sport and fitness equipment fields of use. The fields of medical equipment and orthopedic devices are specifically excluded from the Reebok license. No revenue has been recorded in 1997 from this license. The Company and Reebok are continuing discussions. Sealy. In August 1996, the Company signed an agreement with Sealy, Inc. in which Sealy, Inc. has the option to license IST for its adjustable bed and a right of first refusal as applied to all bedding products (excluding medical bedding applications). No revenue has been recorded in 1997 from this license. The Company is in various stages of discussions with other companies about the possible license of IST for use in consumer seating and other products. (III) PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT Since 1989, the Company has developed, marketed, maintained, and continuously upgraded its Mannequin Pro(TM) software product. This proprietary software product was further developed and marketed by the Company's HumanCAD(R) Systems operation during 1997. In December 1997, the Company received a commitment for certain financing of the planned development and marketing activities of HumanCAD in 1998. The Company took an additional facility in Waterloo, Canada and hired additional sales and marketing and development personnel subsequent to that time. In late February 1998, the Company was advised by the funding source that it would no longer be interested in going forward with the planned financing. The Company then determined to seek alternative value for its investment in these software products and significantly reduced its development and marketing efforts. The operations of the HumanCAD Systems business are considered a discontinued operation in the accompanying financial statements with a measurement date of February 1998. As such, additional charges to operations of approximately $803,000 were made in the first quarter of 1998. The related products of the Human CAD division are as follows: Mannequin Pro(TM) MannequinPro(TM) is a human modeling program that enables the user to render 3-dimensional scalable humanoid figures on a personal computer. These figures can be articulated into any position and then can be viewed from any angle, distance or perspective. The result of that view can be printed, plotted or exported to other graphics software for further enhancement of the image. The figures can walk, bend, reach and grasp objects. A user can test the functionality of the design of almost anything used by humans. The Company has recently upgraded a Windows(R) version that processes in all Windows(R) platforms. The software is compatible with CAD and other graphic programs, and has motion capture capabilities useful for graphical illustrations and motion analysis. The Company believes that several universities, design organizations and government agencies, including NASA, are current users of the earlier version of MannequinPro(TM). HumanCAD has also developed a low cost version of MannequinPro called Mannequin OnSite. (IV) ERGONOMIC CONSULTING SERVICES Until February 9, 1998, the Company had provided ergonomic consulting services in two areas: (i) Traditional Ergonomic Consulting Services, in Ergonomic Product Assessment and Redesign, and Ergonomic Workplace Assessment and (ii) Software Based Consulting Services, tailored to the implementation and use of the HumanCAD(R) line of ergonomic software products. Prior to the acquisition of Drew Shoe, Ergonomic Consulting Services represented the majority of revenues (over 75%) in 1997 and 1996. On February 9, 1998, this business was sold to a third party in exchange for 7.5% of revenues under contracts in process assumed by the third party plus certain defined future revenues. In Ergonomic Product Assessment and Redesign services, the Company performed comprehensive subjective and objective ergonomic testing on products that quantifies the product's relationship in terms of comfort, fit, useability and user performance to humans. This knowledge was used by product developers, manufacturers and industrial design firms to improve existing products and/or to develop new ones. In Ergonomic Workplace Assessment services, the Company provided industrial companies, government, and insurance companies with advice on how to reduce musculoskeletal injuries, through its proprietary EARLY(R) (Ergonomic Assessment of Risk and Liability) services and other consulting services. Other benefits are the potential for improved productivity, enhanced product and service quality. New investments in these technologies have been discontinued. SALES AND MARKETING Drew Shoe - Wholesale Drew Shoe markets its products through approximately eleven independent sales representatives and through the efforts of four employees who are part of a customer service telemarketing team. The sales representatives call on retail customers periodically during the year and solicit new orders based upon new product samples and seasonal catalogues, which reflect the Company's complete product line. The customer service telemarketing team calls or receives calls from customers who want to place fill-in orders. The Company's products are advertised locally by Drew customers. Drew participates in these costs based upon a preset formula. All orders are subject to credit approval and are shipped from Lancaster, Ohio. Drew Shoe - Retail Drew Shoe's 15 retail stores service the medical footwear needs of the communities in which they are located. Each store communicates its marketing message via newspaper advertising, direct mail and by calling on appropriate doctors in the community. Each store has a qualified staff in-house to assist the customer in meeting their specific footwear needs. Marketing Strategy for Licensing IST In order for the Company to obtain new licensees, the Company's marketing strategy has focused on identifying organizations that: o Are large, o Are financially strong, o Have marketing presence, and o Have the financial resources to commercialize the technology The Company will license the IST technology to organizations that meet the above criteria and will assist those organizations in commercializing the technology. Research and Development The Company's research and development is focused on enhancing and commercializing the Company's core technologies. The Company attempts to minimize spending on research. Therefore, the Company typically will try to acquire the rights to use an existing technology, if available, rather than spend money and effort to invent a new technology. The Company will, however, fund research for technology, when the needed technology is not available. For example, in the case of certain components (i.e., a self-generating power supply and an intelligent switch) which are necessary to employ IST for handtools and footwear applications, the Company is seeking to acquire the rights to technology to manufacture such components instead of trying to invent those technologies. However, in the case of other control components (i.e., the microvalve that will control the "air pressure"), the Company is devoting resources to develop that technology, in order to be in a better position to exploit the commercial opportunities of IST in a miniaturized environment. The Company has a collaborative arrangement with MCNC to develop a microelectric mechanical device "microvalve" using MEMS (micro electric mechanical systems) technology. In the area of development, the Company is focusing on software and application engineering for IST to support products of its licensees and on development of the "microvalve". Further software developments include principally IST. The Company uses its internal resources and subcontractors, as needed, in its research and development activities. For example, the Company has established collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook, MCNC and the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and plans to establish additional relationships with other universities, and government laboratories, as necessary. Competition Drew Shoe The Company competes in a fragmented medical and comfort niche market segment of the footwear market. Competition includes P.W. Minor, whose products are very similar to those offered by Drew Shoe. Various other companies compete with Drew on the fringe of the medical footwear market, including SAS, a large manufacturer and retailer of comfort oriented footwear for women and men. IST Although there may be similar systems to the Company's IST, the Company believes that its patents and know-how protect its technology from competition. Suppliers Drew Shoe depends on various raw materials and components to manufacture its shoes, many of which are dependent on one supplier. Drew Shoe does not have binding long-term supply contracts with these suppliers. Approximately 15% of Drew Shoe's supplies, primarily leather, are provided by Italian companies. The Company believes that its relationships with its vendors are satisfactory. Government Regulation The Company's present and proposed activities are not generally subject to government regulation in the United States or other countries. The costs and effects of complying with environmental laws by the Company are not material. Proprietary Information The patent process may be a significant protection for the Company's intellectual property. The Company has obtained eight patents and has filed six additional United States patent applications relating to its IST. One of the patents filed may also be significant since it is for a component which the Company considers critical and needed to miniaturize the application of the IST. Such miniaturization may allow the Company to: a) accelerate the commercialization of many applications, b) enter the potentially large medical footwear market with applications for diabetics, arthritics and the aging population, and c) provide applications to other industries, such as the hand tool industry. The Company also has five U.S. patents in fields other than IST. Major Customers Drew Shoe During 1996 and 1997 the Veteran's Administration was Drew's largest customer accounting for approximately 11% of revenue each year. No other customer accounted for more than 5% of Drew's revenues in either year. IST The most significant customer for IST as the Company enters 1998 is Textron, although revenues to date have been immaterial. See above. The "Year 2000" issue At Drew Shoe, there are information systems used for general accounting, wholesale operations, retail operations and factory management. In October 1997, Drew Shoe, with the assistance of consultants, began a comprehensive review of its information systems, most of which are in need of upgrade in order to keep pace with the growth strategies of the Company. In connection with such efforts, Drew Shoe made capital expenditure commitments of approximately $50,000 to upgrade certain hardware and expects to make certain additional commitments for hardware, peripheral equipment, software and software upgrades in connection with its comprehensive review of its information systems. These efforts are expected to result in substantial change to the information systems of Drew Shoe over the coming eighteen months. In each effort, the "Year 2000" problem is being addressed as a priority item. Since the scope of proposed changes to the information systems at Drew Shoe is still under review, management is not able to estimate the cost, (which may be material), at this time, of changes to its systems. At the Company's corporate office, information systems are principally utilized for general accounting, word processing and analysis. Such systems have generally been upgraded during 1998 in order to be "Year 2000" compliant. The Company does not believe that the cost of compliance with "Year 2000" was material at its headquarters. Employees As of June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately 265 employees, including approximately 255 persons employed by Drew Shoe, 2 employees devoted to technology, 3 corporate administrative employees, 3 executive officers and 2 employees devoted to the discontinuance of HumanCAD. Of the 255 employees at Drew Shoe, approximately 18 are employed part-time and approximately 155 are covered by a collective bargaining agreement that expires in May 2001. In addition, the Company has established a collaborative research and development relationship with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and plans to establish additional relationships with other universities, government laboratories, and other sub-contractors. The Company has been able to attract and retain skilled employees by offering competitive salaries and benefits. The Company believes that its relationship with its employees is good. PROPERTY Since 1990, the Company has leased office space at 1800 Walt Whitman Road, Melville, New York. The Company's lease, as amended in May 1998, expires on March 31, 2001. The current annualized lease rate for this space is approximately $84,000, which is subject to annual increases. The facility, contains approximately 4,100 square feet of office space, as amended in June 1998. The Company's HumanCAD Systems business has two development facilities, one in Toronto, Canada and one in Waterloo, Canada. Such facilities contain an aggregate of approximately 3,000 square feet and were utilized for development and executive offices. The Waterloo facility has been closed and the Toronto facility is being closed. The Company hopes to sublet such facilities, if possible. Drew Shoe owns a 40,000 square foot facility at 252 Quarry Road, Lancaster, Ohio. This facility serves as Drew Shoe's executive office as well as warehouse and certain manufacturing facilities. Drew Shoe also owns a 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility on Forest Rose Avenue in Lancaster, Ohio that houses its principal manufacturing operations. Drew Shoe leases retail space to house its 15 retail outlets. Such facilities call for aggregate annual rentals of approximately $286,000 per year. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In January 1998, Ulin & Holland Incorporated ("U & H") filed suit against the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary in United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The suit alleges that U & H was retained in 1992 by Drew Shoe pursuant to which U & H alleges that it is due a fee of not less than $297,000 in connection with the Company's acquisition of Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe disputes this claim and the Company intends to vigorously defend this action. The Company's HumanCAD Systems operations were discontinued in February 1998. The Company is in the process of liquidating the business with the assistance of appropriate professionals. Various vendors and one customer have threatened litigation for amounts claimed to be due them. One vendor has filed litigation against the Company in connection with a claim of approximately $19,000. There can be no assurance that any threatened litigation will not result in the filing of an action against the Company or that such action(s) will not result in additional costs beyond those already included in the Company's financial statements. There are no other material legal proceedings pending against the Company. DIVIDENDS The Company has paid no cash dividends on its Common Stock since its inception and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

Limitation of Liability of Directors; Indemnification of Directors and Officers; Directors and Officers Insurance Sections 721 through 725 of the New York Business Corporation Law provide that New York corporations shall have the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with actions, suits or proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that they were or are such directors, officers, employees or agents, against expenses incurred in such actions, suits or proceedings. Article Seventh of the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of directors and officers of the Company generally in accordance with New York law. Section 721 of the New York Business Corporation Law permits a corporation to enter into agreements with its directors and officers providing for indemnification for actions, suits or proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that they were or are such directors or officers, against expenses incurred in such actions, suits or proceedings, provided, however, that no such indemnification may be provided if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. Pursuant to such authority, the Company has entered into an agreement with each of its current directors indemnifying them to the maximum extent permitted by Section 721. The agreement provides for the indemnification of these individuals against any and all civil or criminal actions or proceedings brought as a result of such individual being a director or officer of the Company and any judgments and amounts paid in settlement costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees. No indemnification may be made, however, if a judgment or final adjudication establishes that the individual committed acts in bad faith or with deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he personally gained financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. Such indemnification shall be made only by the Board acting with a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to the action in question, or by independent legal counsel, or by the stockholders and in all cases only after a finding that the applicable standard of conduct has been met. Under Section 722(a), the corporation may indemnify any director or officer in any action (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) brought against him by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate was a director or officer of the corporation, or served another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity at the request of the corporation. Indemnification may be given for judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, if such director or officer is shown to have acted in good faith, in furtherance of a purpose believed to be in the best interests of the corporation, and, in the case of a criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reason to believe such conduct was unlawful. Section 722(c) of the New York Business Corporation Law provides for permissive indemnification by the corporation of directors and officers, sued by or in the right of the corporation, against reasonable expenses including attorney's fees unless the director or officer is found to have breached his duty to the corporation under Section 717 or Section 715(h) of the Business Corporation Law, respectively. Amounts paid under this section may not include amounts paid in settlement of a threatened or pending action and expenses incurred in defense of a threatened action or settlement of a pending action without court approval. Indemnification may be by court order under Section 724 or by approval of the corporation in the manner set forth in the statute. Under Section 723(a), success on the merits or otherwise entitles the director or officer to indemnification under Section 722. If not wholly successful, indemnification shall be made by the corporation only if a quorum of the board, not including parties to the action, finds that the standards of Section 722 have been met. If a quorum cannot be obtained, approval may be by the board upon (i) the opinion of independent legal counsel or (ii) a determination by the stockholders that the standards of conduct have been met by the director or officer. Expenses may be paid in advance if authorized by one of the methods discussed above. Under Section 724, if the corporation fails to provide indemnification, the director or officer may apply to the court and may receive indemnification to the extent authorized under Section 722. Expenses may also be advanced if the court finds the defendant director or officer to have raised genuine issues of fact or law. Expenses advanced must be repaid to the corporation if (i) the director or officer has not met the applicable standard which entitles him to indemnification or (ii) if he has been paid in excess of the amount to which he is entitled. Indemnification may not be made if it is inconsistent with the corporation's certificate, by-laws, board resolutions or agreements or a condition imposed by the court in approving a settlement. The New York Business Corporation Law permits a corporation through its certificate of incorporation to prospectively eliminate or limit the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, with certain exceptions. The exceptions include acts or omissions in bad faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, improper declaration of dividends, and transactions from which the director personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation exonerates its directors from personal liability to the extent permitted by this statutory provision. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is therefore unenforceable. The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance. Stock Option Plans The Board of Directors and the Shareholders of the Company approved and adopted the 1995 Stock Option Plan(the "1995 Plan"). Pursuant to the 1995 Plan, the Company is permitted to issue ISOs and NQOs to employees, directors or consultants of the Company (ISOs and NQOs are hereinafter collectively referred to as "Options"). ISOs under the 1995 Plan are intended to qualify for the tax treatment accorded under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). NQOs are intended to be Options which do not qualify for the tax treatment accorded under Section 422 of the Code. The purpose of the 1995 Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining the services of competent employees, directors and consultants. The 1995 Plan replaces all prior option plans and no further options will be granted under the prior option plans. Under the Code, generally, there will be no tax consequences from the grant or exercise of an ISO under the 1995 Plan. An employee holding (i) an ISO at least two years from the date of grant and (ii) the Common Stock issued on exercise for at least one year after the exercise, will have long term capital gain or loss income tax treatment for the gain or loss recognized on the sale of the Common Stock. The difference between the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time the ISO is exercised and the exercise price will be an "item of adjustment" under Code Section 56(b)(3) for purposes of the Alternative Minimum Tax under Code Section 55. If an employee disposes of the Common Stock without meeting these holding period requirements, the employee will realize ordinary income equal to the difference between the lesser of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price or the amount realized over the adjusted basis and capital gain treatment for any excess realized, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction, in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by the employee. When an employee is entitled to capital gain treatment on the sale of the Common Stock, there is no taxable event to the Company. The employee also must remain a Company employee from the time the ISO was granted until three (3) months before the date of actual exercise, except that disabled employee or a deceased employee's representative may exercise an ISO twelve (12) months after termination of employment. Under the Code, generally, there will be no tax consequences from the grant of a NQO under the 1995 Plan. An employee, director or consultant holding a NQO shall be deemed to receive compensation upon exercise of the NQO in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Common Stock issued on exercise over the exercise price. The employee, director or consultant will realize ordinary income, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction, in an amount equal to such excess. Such income constitutes "wages" subject to the withholding requirements of the Code. The basis of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the NQO will be increased by the amount of taxable income attributable to the exercise. All gain or loss on the sale of the Common Stock will be capital gain or loss. The foregoing is based upon the current Federal tax laws and regulations and is not a complete description of the tax aspects of the 1995 Plan. In addition, each optionee may be subject to state and local taxes. All employees, directors and consultants of the Company, any subsidiary or any parent of the Company are eligible to participate in the 1995 Plan. Currently, three officers, three non-officer directors, and all other employees are eligible to participate. The Board of Directors anticipates that the number of eligible employees, directors and consultants may increase with the growth of the Company. The 1995 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company, which to the extent it shall determine may delegate its powers with respect to the administration of the 1995 Plan to a committee (the "Committee") consisting of not less than three members, who shall be directors of the Company. To the extent permitted under the express provisions of the 1995 Plan, the Board of Directors shall have authority to determine which employees, directors or consultants are eligible to receive Options, the number of shares covered by each grant of an Option, and otherwise to interpret and administer the 1995 Plan. The Board of Directors may at any time terminate the 1995 Plan and may, under certain circumstances, amend the 1995 Plan, provided that no amendment may materially increase the maximum number of shares subject to the 1995 Plan, materially increase the maximum benefits accruing under the 1995 Plan, materially modify the requirements for eligibility, make any change requiring shareholder approval under the Code or the 1934 Act, or change the terms of an outstanding Option without the consent of the optionee. Under the 1995 Plan, ISOs to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock shall not be granted with an exercise price less than 100 percent of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the ISO is granted; provided, however, than an employee that owns more than ten (10%) percent of the voting power of all classes of the Company's Common Stock shall not be granted an ISO with an exercise price of less than 110% percent of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of the grant. The option price per share with respect to each NQO granted under the 1995 Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors. The employee, director or consultant shall pay for the Common Stock acquired on exercise of Options under the 1995 Plan by delivering a check payable to the order of the Company, or cash, a promissory note, or shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the date of delivery equal to aggregate exercise price for such number of Option shares and any income tax withholding due. In no event shall the optionee have any right or status as a shareholder prior to the issuance of the Option shares. Options under the 1995 Plan shall have a term of not more than ten (10) years; provided, however, that in no event shall any ISO granted to a person then owning more than ten (10%) percent of the voting power of all classes of the Company's Common Stock be exercisable more than five (5) years after the date the Option is granted. Except for provisions requiring acceleration of vesting, no Option shall vest or be first exercisable prior to six months from the date of grant. Any Option granted to an employee under the 1995 Plan shall terminate three (3) months after termination of employment, except as may be extended by the Board. Any Option granted to a consultant or non-employee director shall terminate twelve (12) months after he ceases to be a consultant or non-employee director, except as may be extended by the Board. Any Option granted under the 1995 Plan shall terminate (i) on the earlier of the expiration of the Option or twelve (12) months after the date on which the optionee ceases to be an employee, a non-employee director, or a consultant if such termination results from the optionee's permanent and total disability; and (ii) on the earlier of the expiration of the Option or twelve (12) months after the optionee's death, if the optionee was an employee, non-employee director or consultant at death, during which period the optionee's executors or administrators may exercise any Option not exercised by the optionee during his lifetime. If the optionee's death occurs within three (3) months after termination as an employee, a non-employee director or a consultant, the Option may be exercised until the earlier of twelve (12) months following the date of the optionee's death or the expiration of the Option. The aggregate fair market value, determined at the time the ISO is granted, of the Common Stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by an employee in any calendar year under the 1995 Plan may not exceed $100,000. Subject to the foregoing and to the specific limitations set out in the 1995 Plan, any Option granted pursuant to the 1995 Plan shall contain provisions established by the Board of Directors setting forth the manner of exercise of such Option. Pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Plan, the number of shares covered by an Option and the Option price per share (as well as the maximum number of shares as to which Options may be granted to any one individual) are subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, mergers, consolidations, and other similar events. Otherwise, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under the 1995 Plan is 2,000,000. In the event of a change of control, all Options become fully vested. Change of control is deemed to occur when (i) any group becomes the owner of at least 20% of the total voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote in an election, (ii) the current directors shall cease to constitute a majority of the board, (iii) the shareholders approve a certain plan of liquidation or merger or consolidation of the Company where the Company's current shareholders do not hold at least a majority of common stock of the surviving corporation or the Board of Directors immediately prior to the merger or consolidation would not constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of the surviving corporation, or the shareholders approve an agreement providing for the sale or other disposition of substantially all of the Company's assets. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with its terms, the 1995 Plan will expire on the date ten (10) years after the date of its adoption by the Board of Directors and no Option may be granted after that date. Prior to the 1995 Plan, the directors of the Company had adopted and the stockholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Plan"). In 1992, the Board of Directors adopted and the stockholders approved the adoption of an amendment to the Plan to (a) increase the total number of shares with respect to which options may be granted by 500,000 to 1,565,957, (b) permit the granting of NQOs at a price per share less than the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant and (c) permit options to be exercised up to two years after termination of employment under certain circumstances. In 1989, the Company also adopted a Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan ( the "1989 Nonstatutory Plan") for directors. Under the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan, the Company could grant options for the purchase of 355,000 shares of common stock at not less than fair market value at the date of grant. Pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Plan, no options may be granted under the 1989 Plan or the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan subsequent to June 22, 1995. Pursuant to the 1995 Plan, the Board of Directors has granted options to acquire an aggregate of 1,760,500 shares of Common Stock of the Company (net of cancellations). The Board of Directors intends such options to be ISOs to the extent such is allowable under the Code. Any such options granted as ISOs which exceed such limitation shall be characterized as NQOs. The Board of Directors has also granted NQOs to acquire an aggregate of 165,000 shares of Common Stock (net of cancellations) pursuant to the 1995 Plan to various officers and directors and consultants. Pursuant to the 1989 Plan, the Board of Directors granted ISOs to acquire 32,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company (net of cancellations). In addition, the Board of Directors granted NQOs to acquire an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company (net of cancellations) to a consultant. The Board of Directors had also granted NQOs to acquire an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Common Stock (net of cancellations) pursuant to the Non-Statutory Plan to various officers and directors. In 1997, the Company issued option grants under the 1995 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 3,984,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, approximately 3,764,500 of which were subject to approval by shareholders of an amendment to the Company's 1995 Plan. The amendment, approved at the 1997 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in February 1998, increases the number of shares under the 1995 Plan from 2,000,000 to 8,000,000 shares. All outstanding options are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.922 to $3.219 per share. The exercise prices of all outstanding options were determined by the Board to be not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of grant. The options all expire not more than ten years after the date of grant and by their terms become void if any of the recipients violate any restrictive covenant or confidentiality agreement executed by them with respect to the Company. Director Compensation Employee-directors receive no compensation for serving on the Board of Directors other than reimbursement of expenses incurred in attending meetings. Non-employee directors elected or appointed to the Board of Directors are paid an annual directors' fee of $5,000 plus $500 for each Board meeting attended and are reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending meetings. During the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, stock options were issued to the following non-employee directors. Options to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock were issued to Joel L. Gold. Including these options, Mr. Gold has been granted options to purchase an aggregate of 107,500 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $.75 to $1.68 per share. Options to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock were issued to Glenn F. Santmire. Subsequent to fiscal year-end, options to purchase an additional 35,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.25 were issued to Mr. Santmire. Including these options, Mr. Santmire has been granted options to purchase an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $.75 to $1.5156 per share. Options to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock were issued to Sandra Meyer, at an exercise price of $.7813 per share. Options to purchase 750,000 shares of Common Stock, 690,125 of which are subject to shareholder approval of the amendment to the 1995 Stock Option Plan described herein, were issued to Norman B. Wright, at prices ranging from $.75 to $1.5157 per share. PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS SPECIFIC TO THIS REGISTRATION The following table sets forth information regarding the common shares and warrants (and common shares underlying the warrants) that will be registered under this registration statement.

(b) Shares not subject to "repricing". (c) The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" in increments of invested proceeds pursuant to a schedule. The increments are initially four $300,000 increments and then four $200,000 increments on eight occasions. The repricing increments commence with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares, then one increment 60 days later and the remaining six increments in 30 day intervals thereafter. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued at 77% of the average closing bid price, as defined, for the five trading days immediately preceeding but not including, the "repricing" date. Each "repricing' calculation is made independent of the other "repricing" calculations. The operation of the "repricing" provision could result in significantly greater number of shares being issued than the amounts listed in the above table. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company is exposed to penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares by approximately the end of August 1998. The Company has agreed not to issue certain financings for 270 days after issuance of all shares under the "repricing" provisions without the consent of the investors and has agreed to a right of first refusal as defined in the agreements. The $2,000,000 issuance of common stock and warrants triggers the anti-dilution provisions of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and the Company's currently outstanding Class B and Class E warrants. See "Description of Securities" and Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 1998, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders' approved an increase in the number of authorized share of Common Stock from 40,000,000 to 65,000,000. The holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available theretofore and in such amounts as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. See "Dividend Policy." Each stockholder is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock held by him. Under the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation the Common Stock is not subject to redemption. See "Certain Transactions-Redemption." Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and following provision for the liquidation preference of all outstanding preferred stock, the assets legally available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock are distributable ratably among the holders of the outstanding Common Stock. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will upon issuance, be fully paid and non-assessable. In September 1989, the Company authorized and adopted a Restated Certificate of Incorporation which provided that the Company's Common Stock is not entitled to any preemptive rights. The Company has received from each of its Pre-IPO Stockholders waivers of any preemptive rights such stockholders may have been entitled to with respect to prior issuances of securities by the Company. Warrants, Options and Convertible Securities Common shares reserved for future issuance as of March 31, 1998, adjusted in the case of the 1998 stock option plan for the February 1998 increase to the shares available under such plan, are approximately as follows: Units sold in public offering in 1990: Class B warrants, subject to antidilution (see below).......... 1,292,000 Class E warrants, subject to antidilution (see below).......... 737,000 Unit Options, expired in 1997.................................. 0 Conversion feature of 10%/13% Convertible Notes, subject to antidilution and "pay in kind" provisions ($0.78, 2002 see Note 6) .................................................. 8,192,000 Third party options (see table below).......................... 1,050,000 1989 Stock Option Plan (see below)............................. 432,000 1989 Nonstatutory Plan (see below)............................. 25,000 1995 Stock Option Plan (as amended in 1998, see below)......... 8,192,000 Warrants issued in private placements: Class C warrants, expired during 1997......................... 0 Class D warrants, expired during 1997......................... 0 Class AA warrants ($0.65, 2002, see above).................... 975,000 Class BB warrants ($0.72, 2002, see above).................... 100,000 Class CC warrants ($1.03, 2002, see above).................... 10,000 Class DD warrants ($1.72, 2002, see above).................... 2,035,000 Class EE warrants ($0.80, 2002 see below)..................... 500,000 1998 Private Placement warrants ($2.05, 2002, see below)...... 250,000 1998 Consultant warrants ($1.00, 2003, see below)............. 400,000 ---------- 24,190,000 ---------- Redeemable Class B and Redeemable Class E Warrants. The Redeemable Class B have been issued pursuant to a warrant agreement, dated January 17, 1990 (as amended, the "Warrant Agreement"), among the Company, the Underwriter and North American Transfer Co., as assignee from American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, warrant agent (the "Warrant Agent"), and are evidenced by warrant certificates in registered form. The Class E Warrants were issued in connection with a "Discounted Warrant Plan" offered to holders of the Class A Warrants (all of which have been exercised or expired) and Class B Warrants issued in connection with the public offering in 1990. On December 20, 1996, the Company extended the expiration date of the Company's Redeemable Class B Warrants and Redeemable Class E Warrants to January 17, 1998 and amended the exercise price of the Redeemable Class B Warrants to $1.14/share. The Class B and Class E Warrants are presently exercisable, were due to expire in January 1998, have been extended to October 17, 1998 and are subject to anti-dilution provisions. As a result of the financings completed in 1997, the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants were triggered and resulted in the following revisions to the warrant price and the number of shares subject to warrant:
Exercise price Number of shares Exercise price Number of shares per warrant per warrant per share subject to warrant -------------- ---------------- ---------------------------------- Class B Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.50 1.2 $1.25 969,191 Current $1.14 1.6 $ .71 1,292,254 Class E Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.25 1.1 $1.14 540,747 Current $0.95 1.5 $ .63 737,382
The 1998 private placement discussed in the following paragraphs may trigger the operation of antidilution provisions of the Class B and Class E warrants especially with respect to the additional shares which may be issued pursuant to the "repricing" provisions of such private placement . As provided initially in the Warrant Agreement, each Redeemable Class B Warrant entitled the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at exercise prices, ranging from $3.33 to $4.67 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time commencing upon issuance of the Redeemable Class B Warrants until the close of business on the expiration date (originally January 17, 1998 and now October 17, 1998), unless previously redeemed. The Redeemable Class B Warrants are subject to redemption by the Company at any time on not less than 30 days' prior written notice, at $.03 per Warrant, if (i) the average closing bid price of the Common Stock exceeds the applicable average closing bid price for any period of 30 consecutive business days ending within 15 days prior to the date of the notice of redemption and (ii) the Company has in effect a current prospectus covering the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Redeemable Class B Warrants. The exercise price of the Redeemable Class B and E Warrants and the number and kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities and property to be obtained upon the exercise of those Warrants are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, including a stock split of, or stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or recapitalization of, the Common Stock or sale of Common Stock at less than the market price of the Common Stock, provided that no adjustment shall be made unless and until the adjustment, or the aggregate of successive adjustments, would exceed $.25 per share. Additionally, an adjustment would be made upon the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company so as to enable those Warrant holders to purchase the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable in such event by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that might otherwise have been purchased upon exercise of such Warrant. No adjustment for previously paid cash dividends, if any, will be made upon exercise of those Warrants. After giving effect to the foregoing provisions, the exercise prices and number of shares for the Redeemable Class E and Redeemable Class B Warrants, have been adjusted to the prices and share conversions set forth in the table above. The Warrants do not confer upon the holder any voting or any other rights of a stockholder of the Company. Upon notice to the Warrant holders, the Company has the right to reduce the exercise price or extend the expiration date of the Warrants. The Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the Warrant certificate on or prior to the respective expiration date (or earlier redemption date) of such Warrants at the offices of the Warrant Agent, with the form of "Election to Purchase" on the reverse side of the Warrant certificate duly completed and executed, accompanied by payment of the full exercise price (by certified check payable to the order of the Warrant Agent) for the number of Warrants being exercised. The terms of the Redeemable Class E Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the adjusted exercise prices set forth above and the adjusted conversion ratio. Non-Redeemable Class AA Warrants 1,075,000 Non-redeemable Class AA Warrants were issued in 1997 in connection with a private placement offering for $1,075,000. 1,075,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock are issuable upon the exercise of the 1,075,000 Warrants at an exercise price of $.65 per share. The Non-Redeemable Class AA Warrants are exercisable until March 31, 2002. One Warrant is convertible into one share of the Company's Common Stock. As of the date of this filing, warrants to purchase 100,000 shares have been exercised and warrants to purchase 975,000 shares of Common Stock are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The terms of the Non-Redeemable Class AA Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the exercise prices set forth above and the conversion ratio and certain more extensive dilution provisions contained in the Redeemable Class B Warrants, provided that, pursuant to the terms of the private placement offering, each Non-Redeemable Class AA Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at $.65 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time prior to its expiration on March 31, 2002. Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants 100,000 Non-redeemable Class BB Warrants were issued between the commencement of a private placement in July 22, 1997 and its conclusion in September 1997 to two investors in the private placement (25,000 each) and to the placement agent (50,000). The terms of the Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the exercise prices set forth above and the conversion ratio, and certain more extensive dilution provisions contained in the Redeemable Class B Warrants, provided that, pursuant to the terms of the private placement offering, each Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at $0.72 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time prior to its expiration on July 22, 2002. Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants The Company completed an offering of $200,000 on September 17, 1997, which, in part, resulted in the issuance of 10,000 Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock exercisable at $1.0264 per share. One Warrant is convertible into one share of the Company's Common Stock. The Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants are exercisable until September 17, 2002. The terms of the Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the exercise prices set forth above, the conversion ratio and certain more extensive dilution provisions contained in the Redeemable Class B Warrants, provided that, pursuant to the terms of the private placement offering, each Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at $1.0264 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time prior to its expiration on September 17, 2002. Non-Redeemable Class DD and Non-Redeemable Class EE Warrants On September 19, 1997, the Company issued, as amended in April 1998, Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants to purchase 2,034,884 shares of Common Stock at $1.72 per share (after the operation of antidilution provisions to the shares issued in the April 1998 private placement), in connection with the issuance of the 10%/13% Convertible Subordinated Notes as part of the financing for the Drew Shoe acquisition, and 500,000 Non-Redeemable Class EE Warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.80 per share The terms of the Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the exercise prices set forth above, the conversion ratio, provided that, pursuant to the terms of the private placement offering, each Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at $1.72 (as adjusted) per share, subject to adjustment for antidilution, at any time prior to its expiration on September 19, 2002. It is likely that any material "repricing" of the shares to be issued in the 1998 Private Placement will result in additional antidilution adjustments. The terms of the Non-Redeemable Class EE Warrants are identical to those of the Redeemable Class B Warrants, excluding the exercise prices set forth above, the conversion ratio and certain more extensive dilution provisions contained in the Redeemable Class B Warrants, provided that, pursuant to the terms of the private placement offering, each Non-Redeemable Class EE Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at $.80 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time prior to its expiration on September 19, 2000. 1998 Private Placement Warrants In April 1998 in connection with the private placement of common stock and warrants for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000, the Company issued warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of its common stock at $2.05 per share prior to April 2003. The terms of the warrants are similar to the Non-Redeemable Class CC warrants discussed above except for the exercise price and expiration date. 1998 Consultant Warrants In July 1998, the Company issued warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock to a consultant. Such warrants are exercisable at $1.00 per share through July 2003 and contain piggyback registration rights. Acquisition Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue 750,000 shares of its Acquisition Preferred Stock, $.01 par value, none of which are presently issued and outstanding. The Acquisition Preferred Stock is only permitted to be issued as consideration pursuant to (i) a statutory merger or consolidation as to which the Company is the surviving entity, (ii) the acquisition by the Company of substantially all the assets or business of another entity or (iii) the acquisition by the Company of 50% or more of the voting securities of another entity. The Acquisition Preferred Stock is issuable from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix, before issuance, (i) the voting powers, if any, and (ii) the designations, preferences and any other rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions applicable to each series of Acquisition Preferred Stock, including, without limitation, dividend rates and conditions, dividend preferences, conversion and redemption rights and liquidation preferences. The Board of Directors may without approval of the holders of the Common Stock issue the Acquisition Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights which may adversely affect the rights, including voting rights, of the holders of the Common Stock. 8% Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue 15,000 shares of its 8% Preferred Stock, $10.00 par value, none of which are issued and outstanding. Holders of 8% Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights. Holders of shares of 8% Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of $.80 per share, payable quarterly, as and when declared by the Board of Directors, before any dividend may be paid or declared on the Common Stock. The Company may at any time, and within five years after issuance must, redeem the 8% Preferred Stock, at $10.00 per share, together with accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. In the event of the liquidation or winding up of the Company, holders of the 8% Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive $10.00 per share, together with all accrued and unpaid dividends, before any amounts may be paid in respect of the Company's Common Stock. Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series and to fix before issuance with respect to each series: (a) the designation and the number of shares to constitute each series, (b) the liquidation rights, if any, (c) the dividend rights and rates, if any, (d) the rights and terms of redemption, if any, (e) whether the shares will be subject to the operation of a sinking or retirement fund, if any, (f) whether the shares are to be convertible or exchangeable into other securities of the Company or its subsidiaries, and the rates thereof, if any, (g) any limitations on the payment of dividends on the Common Stock while any such series is outstanding, if any, (h) the voting power, if any, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, of the shares, which voting powers may be general or special, and (i) such other provisions as shall not be inconsistent with the Certificate of Incorporation. All the shares of any one series of the Preferred Stock shall be identical in all respects. The Board of Directors may without approval of the holders of the Common Stock issue the Acquisition Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights which may adversely affect the rights, including voting rights, of the holders of the Common Stock. Preferred Stock of BCA Services On July 22, 1997 BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, commenced, and in September 1997 completed, a private offering to accredited investors (the "Offering") and sold 100 shares of BCA's Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for a total consideration of $1.0 million. The Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Common Stock") at a price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock over a three day trading period ending on the day preceding the conversion date (the "Variable Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price could not be greater than 100% of the Variable Conversion Price on the first closing date (the "Fixed Conversion Price"). The Fixed Conversion price was $0.6563. In July and September 1997, the Company sold 100 shares ($1,000,000) of Convertible Preferred stock to Austost Anstalt Schaan ($500,000) and UFH Endowment LTD. ($500,000). Between November 1997 and March 1998, all of the Convertible Preferred stock issued was converted into common stock of the Company at an average price of approximately $0.65 per share. In addition, purchasers of the Convertible Preferred stock received Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants to purchase an aggregate 50,000 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $0.7219. The warrants have a term of five years and the Common Stock underlying the warrants contains registration rights. On September 18, 1997, BCA closed a separate offering of its Preferred Stock plus warrants for $200,000 on similar terms and conditions as the Offering (excluding the existing fixed conversion feature and certain fees). As a result of this offering, 20 shares of Preferred Stock (convertible into the Company's Common Stock at a maximum price of $0.9331 per share) were issued, along with Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase up to 10,000 shares of Common Stock (at $1.0264 per share). The purchasers of the securities were Arcadia Mutual Fund, which purchased 15 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 7,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock, and David Morgenstern, who purchased 5 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock. All of the Convertible Preferred Stock issued in this offering was converted to Common Stock of the Company at an average price of approximately $0.79 per share prior to December 31, 1997. The Registrant claims exemption from registration of these two placements by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued which requires accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the preferred stock described above and the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants described below). This accounting results in significant charges to operations in connection with these financings as further described in Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. 10%/13% Redeemable Convertible Notes and Warrants In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, On September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes to eight investors in the aggregate face amount (after reflecting interest "paid in kind" on March 19, 1998 of $390,000) of $6,390,000 (the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes are due, as amended in April 1998 (see "Debt restructuring" below), on April 16, 1999 unless at any time after September 19, 1998, they are converted, at $.78 per share (after reflecting antidilution provisions applied to the 1998 Private Placement), into 8,192,308 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The conversion feature is subject to antidilution in certain circumstances including the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in the 1998 Private Placement. (See "Recent Events" and Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements). Further, any future material "repricings" pursuant to the 1998 Private Placement would cause additional adjustments to the conversion price per share. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of its Convertible Notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. In addition, the Company issued to the noteholders Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants to purchase, as amended in April 1998, 2,034,884 shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.72 per share (after reflecting antidilution provisions applied to the 1998 Private Placement) at any time prior to September 19, 2002. Further, any future material "repricings" pursuant to the 1998 Private Placement would cause additional adjustments to the exercise price per share and number of shares subject to warrant. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on the date of the transaction was approximately $1.52 and on the March 19,1998 interest payment date was approximately $1.25. Effective April 14, 1998 the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and related warrants entered into a First Amendment (and related Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) of the September 1997 Note Purchase Agreement in order to restructure the obligation. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement), (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders of a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in the second quarter of 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. See "Non-Redeemable Class DD and Non-Redeemable Class EE Warrants" regarding the terms of the warrants to purchase, as amended, 2,000,000 shares of common stock issued in connection with the Convertible Notes. See Risk Factors, "Secured debt coming due in 1999", and "Charges to Operations Related to Recent Financings." Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent North American Transfer Co., Freeport, New York is the Company's transfer and warrant agent. Business Combination Provisions New York law regulates "business combinations," a term covering a broad range of transactions, between "resident domestic corporations" (as defined, which term would include the Company) and an interested stockholder, which is defined as any person beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the resident domestic corporation or any affiliate or associate of such owner. However, if the interested stockholder has owned at least 5% of such outstanding voting stock at all times from October 31, 1985 to the date at which he or it first attains 20% ownership (the "Stock Acquisition Date"), the proposed business combination is exempt from this statute. Under the statute, a resident domestic corporation may not engage in any business combination with any interested stockholder unless (a) if the business combination is to occur within five years of the date the stockholder acquired 20% or more ownership, either the business combination or the stock acquisition must have been previously approved by the board of directors, or (b) the business combination is approved by a majority of outstanding voting shares (not including those shares owned by the interested stockholder), which approval may not be effectively given until approximately five years after the interested stockholder's Stock Acquisition Date, or (c) the consideration paid to the non-interested stockholders must meet certain stringent conditions imposed by the statute. The restrictions imposed by the statute will not apply to a corporation which amends its by-laws by the affirmative vote of a majority of its outstanding voting stock (not including those shares held by the interested stockholders) to "elect out" of the statute; provided that such amendment will not be effective for 18 months after such vote and will not apply to any business combination where the Stock Acquisition Date is on or prior to the date of the amendment. At this time, the Company will not seek to "elect out" of the statute and, therefore, the restrictions imposed by the statute will apply to the Company. The Company does not presently anticipate participating in any business combination or similar transaction covered by the "business combination" statute in the foreseeable future and is not actively considering or discussing any such transaction. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Upon issuance of all shares of Common Stock registered hereby, the Company will have 23,200,035 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of BCAM International, Inc., as of December 31, 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of BCAM International, Inc. at December 31, 1997, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Melville, New York April 20, 1998 F-1 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Consolidated Balance Sheet December 31, 1997 Assets - ------ Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,594,000 Accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts of $120,000 1,584,000 Inventory 6,278,000 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 205,000 Current assets of discontinued operations, principally receivables 253,000 ------------ Total current assets 9,914,000 Property, plant and equipment, at cost: Land and buildings 826,000 Equipment, furniture and fixtures 2,924,000 Leasehold improvements 51,000 ------------ 3,801,000 Less accumulated depreciation and amortization (832,000) ------------ 2,969,000 Deferred finance costs, net 786,000 Other assets 508,000 ------------ Total assets $ 14,177,000 ============ Current liabilities: Current portion of long-term debt $ 463,000 Accounts payable 962,000 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 1,637,000 Current liabilities of discontinued operations, principally trade payables 136,000 ------------ Total current liabilities 3,198,000 Long-term debt and convertible notes, net of current maturities and unamortized debt discount 7,972,000 Other non-current liabilities 295,000 Minority interest 618,000 Commitments and contingencies Shareholders' equity: Acquisition preferred stock, 750,000 authorized shares, none issued -- Preferred Stock, 2,000,000 authorized, none issued -- Common stock, par value $.01 per share -- 65,000,000 shares authorized, 18,171,641 shares issued and 17,408,459 shares outstanding 182,000 Paid-in surplus 26,338,000 Unamortized charge for beneficial debt conversion (4,290,000) Deficit (19,237,000) Less 763,182 treasury shares (899,000) ------------ Total shareholders' equity 2,094,000 ------------ Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $ 14,177,000 ============ See accompanying notes.

See accompanying notes F-5 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 1. Description of Business and Principles of Consolidation BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") has been primarily a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, major corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had revenues for its year ended December 31, 1996 of approximately $14.6 million and has been in business for approximately 125 years. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of the HumanCAD Systems division as a result of the lack of available financing to further the necessary business development activities of that division on a basis that would enhance shareholder value. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The Company's strategic focus is on building its presence in the medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's proprietary technologies, principally Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and its proprietary "microvalve". Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BCAM International, Inc. and its subsidiaries, principally Drew Shoe (medical footwear), since September 22, 1997, BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies), BCA Services, Inc. (principally human ergonomics consulting which has been discontinued), and HumanCAD Systems, Inc. (principally software development and marketing which has been discontinued). The Company requires additional capital to fund its activities in 1998 and made a private placement of its equity securities in April 1998 in order to satisfy this need (see note 7). In April 1998, the Company and the holders of its 10%/13% Convertible Notes agreed to a restructuring of the obligation which accelerates repayment to April 1999, among other matters discussed in Note 6. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cash Equivalents, Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed Federally insured limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, their dispersion across different geographic areas, and generally short payment terms. In addition, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Revenue from wholesale medical footwear sales is recognized at the time products are shipped. Revenue F-6 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 from retail medical footwear sales through Company-owned retail operations is recognized at the point of sale. License revenues are recorded when earned under the related license agreement. Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. Property, Plant and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Other Assets The costs of acquiring or processing (principally professional and government fees) patents, trademarks and other intellectual properties are capitalized at cost. This amount is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets of approximately 5 years. Research and Development Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." At December 31, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $15,937,000 for income tax purposes, expiring through 2012. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, deferred tax assets approximating $5,886,000 and $4,672,000, respectively, arising from the future potential availability of net operating loss carryforwards have been offset in full by valuation allowances in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109. The utilization of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards. Additionally, based on ownership changes which occurred in 1997 and in prior years, it is expected that the annual utilization of the otherwise available net operating loss carryforwards will be limited by the provisions of Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. As such the Company may be restricted as to the utilization of its net operating loss. The Company believes that significant issuances of additional stock could trigger an additional change and a new limitation. Net Loss Per Share In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per Share. Statement 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Net loss per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents have been excluded because their effect is antidilutive. There was no effect to the Company's financial statements of adopting SFAS 128. Stock-Based Compensation In 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." In accordance with the standard, the Company elected to continue to account for its stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations (APB 25). Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's stock options granted equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is required to be recognized except in the case of options issued which are subject to shareholder approval (see Note 7) F-7 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Reclassification Certain amounts in the 1996 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 1997 presentation. 3. Inventories Inventories consisted of the following at December 31, 1997: Raw materials $ 760,000 Work in process 976,000 Finished goods 4,542,000 ---------- Total $6,278,000 ========== Inventories at September 22, 1997 (date of acquisition of Drew Shoe) were approximately $6,175,000. 4. Property and equipment Property and equipment consists of the following at December 31, 1997 and were depreciated and amortized utilizing the estimated useful lives indicated below: Range of Estimated December Useful Lives 31, 1997 ------------ ---------- Land $ 100,000 Buildings and improvements 10-35 years 726,000 Equipment, furniture and fixtures 5-10 years 2,924,000 Leasehold improvements 2-5 years 51,000 ---------- Total 3,801,000 Less accumulated depreciation 832,000 ---------- Total $2,969,000 ---------- Approximately $2,839,000, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, of the total property and equipment was acquired in September 1997 as part of the acquisition of Drew Shoe. 5. Acquisition of Drew Shoe Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. The purchase price was paid by delivery to the shareholders of Drew Shoe of an aggregate of $3,882,000 in cash, promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 (See Note 6) and by delivery of an aggregate of 375,000 unregistered shares of the Company's Common Stock (valued at approximately $1.20 per share to reflect a discount for lack of registration). The promissory notes bear interest at 8% per annum, are due on September 19, 1999, and are payable in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments aggregating $8,333.34 (plus interest) with final payments due in the twenty-fifth (25th) month aggregating $200,000. See Note 6 for a description of the securities issued in order to finance the acquisition of Drew Shoe. Simultaneously with the acquisition, Drew Shoe entered into a credit facility with a commercial bank (guaranteed by the Company) which is further described in Note 6. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. In addition, Drew Shoe operates 15 retail shoe specialty stores. The Company has accounted for F-8 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. Under such method, the purchase price paid plus costs of the acquisition are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired company based on the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired. The remaining amount, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired company are consolidated with the Company's operations beginning on the date of purchase. At December 31, 1997, a preliminary estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities has been made based upon certain appraisals and other data that is preliminary and subject to change. Based upon such preliminary evaluation at December 31, 1997, approximately $21,000 of goodwill has been recorded in connection with the acquisition of Drew Shoe. The following summary shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of the beginning of each period shown. This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non-recurring charges that are discussed in Notes 6 and 7) and the amortization of fair value adjustments (principally for increased depreciation). The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficiently available net operating losses available to offset anticipated profits from Drew Shoe. This summary may not be indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the purchase occurred at the beginning of each period shown. 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Revenues $15,083,000 $14,638,000 =========== =========== Loss from operations $(1,321,000) $(1,123,000) =========== =========== Loss from Continuing Operations (excluding non-recurring charges in 1997) $(2,905,000) $(2,506,000) =========== =========== Net loss (excluding non-recurring charges in 1997) $(4,280,000) $(2,751,000) =========== =========== Net loss per share (excluding non recurring charges in 1997) $ (0.26) $ (0.19) =========== =========== 6. Long Term Debt and Convertible Notes Secured bank debt - Simultaneously with the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Drew Shoe, entered into a credit facility with a commercial bank consisting of: (i) a revolving line of credit up to $4,500,000 (which is based upon agreed upon percentages of accounts receivable and inventory) and (ii) a term loan of $1,000,000. As of the date of the Drew Shoe acquisition, the Company believes there was approximately $4,500,000 available under this credit facility (approximately $3,750,000 of which was drawn down to pay certain existing liabilities of Drew Shoe, including an existing liability to that bank of approximately $2,655,000, debentures payable to former shareholders of approximately $845,000, and to transfer $250,000 to the Company). The revolving line of credit matures on September 30, 1999, and calls for current payments of interest at a rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at December 31,1997). The term loan portion of the credit facility (in the principal amount of $1,000,000) also bears an interest rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at December 31, 1997) and is payable in monthly installments through September 30, 2000 with a payment due at that time of $583,000. Both the revolving line of credit and term loan may be used for general working capital purposes and are guaranteed by the Company. The credit facility with this bank requires Drew Shoe to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, principally net worth, and contains restrictions on the transfer of cash to the Company. Costs incurred in connection with the bank term loan and revolving credit totaling approximately $75,000, are included in Deferred finance cost and are being amortized to Interest and financing cost using the effective interest method over a two year period. 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants - In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, on September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes (the F-9 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 "Convertible Notes"), and Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants, in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000. The Convertible Notes are due, as amended, on April 16, 1999 unless at any time after September 19, 1998 they are converted, at $.80 per share, into 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Such conversion feature is subject to antidilution provision in certain circumstances including the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in 1998 discussed below. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of additional Convertible Notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. The Convertible Notes require the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants including maintenance of minimum levels of interest coverage and net worth (as defined). At December 31, 1997, the Company was in violation of such covenants. On April 14, 1998, the noteholders and the Company entered into the First Amendment of the Note Purchase Agreement (together with a Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) in order to restructure the agreement. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement) (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. As a result of the restructuring, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation ($6,000,000) in approximately one year or face default and on the security. It is the Company's intention to refinance or otherwise restructure this obligation. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. The Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants entitle the holders to purchase, as amended, 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $1.75 per share at any time prior to September 19, 2002. The Company has, under generally accepted accounting principles, recorded approximately $1,872,000 of the $6,000,000 received from the sale of the Convertible Notes and Warrants as the estimated value (based upon a "Black Scholes" calculation) of the detachable warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes resulting in a discount to the value assigned to the Convertible Notes. Such amount is being amortized over the five-year term of the Convertible Notes. The private placement of convertible notes and warrants to one investor group (aggregating $5,000,000 of the total $6,000,000) was made with the assistance of an investment banker who charged a cash fee of 6% ($300,000) plus 187,500 unregistered shares of common stock (valued at $1.20 per share to reflect a discount for lack of registration), and Class EE warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.80 per share, of the Company. The cash fee, shares of stock and the estimated fair value of the warrants aggregate approximately $1,025,000. This amount has been apportioned between Deferred financing costs, and acquisition costs of Drew Shoe. The portion allocated to Deferred financing costs (approximately $775,000), together with legal and other costs of the transaction are being amortized over the five year term of the Convertible Notes. There were no investment banking fees associated with the remaining $1,000,000 of proceeds. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on the date of the transaction was approximately $1.50. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued. Statement D-60 requires certain new accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the Convertible Notes described above and the Convertible Preferred Stock of BCA Services, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, described in Note 7). This accounting requires that the beneficial value be charged to operations (based upon the traded market price, without discount, compared to the conversion price) in the case of a convertible note or to retained earnings as a dividend in the case of a preferred stock, over a period reflecting the shortest period in which the investor has to exercise and under the most favorable terms to the investor. As such, the Company has charged approximately $5,925,000 (representing the value of the beneficial debt conversion feature of the Convertible Notes measured at the date of issuance) to Unamortized Charge for Beneficial Debt Conversion in the shareholders' equity section of its Consolidated F-10 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Balance Sheet. Such amount is being charged to Interest and financing costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations at the rate of approximately $1,481,000 per quarter until September 19, 1998. See, however, the discussion of the restructuring of this financing above. This charge to operations is considered a non-recurring charge in the preparation of the summary pro-forma data contained in Note 5. This charge is in addition to amortization of Deferred financing costs and the debt discount related to the Convertible Notes (approximately $1,872,000), over the five-year term of the Convertible Notes. At December 31, 1997, long term debt consists of the following: 10%/13% Convertible Notes, face amount $6,000,000, net of approximately $1,767,000 of unamortized debt discount with interest payable on March 19 and September 19, due April 16, 1999 unless earlier converted $4,233,000 Revolving credit arrangement with a bank, payable on September 30, 1999, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5% 2,618,000 Term Loan agreement with a bank, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5% payable in monthly principal installments of $11,905 plus interest through September 30, 2000 when the final payment of $583,000 is due. 976,000 Notes payable to sellers of Drew Shoe (including $187,500 payable to the ongoing President of Drew Shoe), bearing interest at 8%, with monthly payments of principal aggregating $8,333 plus interest and balloon payments aggregating $200,000 on September 19, 1999 375,000 Amount payable to parties related to former owners and an officer of Drew Shoe due December 31, 1998, bearing interest at prime 214,000 Other, net 19,000 ---------- Total long term debt 8,435,000 less: current portion 463,000 ---------- $7,972,000 ========== Principal payment requirements on the above obligations, adjusted for the debt restructure described above is approximately as follows subsequent to December 31, 1997: Years ended Amount ---------- ----------- 1998 $ 463,000 1999 9,049,000 2000 690,000 ----------- 10,202,000 ----------- Less unamortized debt discount (1,767,000) ----------- Total Long-term Debt at December 31, 1997 $ 8,435,000 =========== F-11 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 7. Shareholders' Equity 1997 Sale of Convertible Preferred Stock of Subsidiary - On July 22, 1997, September 8 and September 18, 1997, BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), previously wholly-owned by the Company, sold 120 shares of BCA's Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for an aggregate consideration of $1,200,000 in two private offerings to accredited investors. The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a price equal to a fixed discount (30%) of the average closing bid price of the common stock over a period of time ending on the day preceding the conversion date and subject to a ceiling price. In addition, for 100 of the shares of Preferred Stock sold, the Company issued Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at $0.72 per share. For 20 shares of Preferred Stock sold, the Company issued Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at $1.03 per share. The Class BB and CC Warrants have a term of five years and the underlying common stock has been registered by the Company. The two private placements of BCA Preferred Stock were made with the assistance of a placement agent. The placement agent charged a commission of 8% in fees and 2% in expenses, plus warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at approximately $0.72 per share for five years, for the first offering ($1,000,000). The placement agent charged 6% in fees and no warrants for the second offering ($200,000). At December 31, 1997, $500,000 of the Preferred Stock had been converted into 706,226 common shares of the Company at a weighted average conversion price of approximately $0.71. Subsequent to December 31, 1997, the remaining $700,000 of the Preferred Stock has been converted into 1,066,585 shares of common stock at $0.66 per share resulting in the transfer of $618,000 of minority interest at December 31, 1997 into shareholders equity. See Note 6 for a discussion of certain accounting treatment called for by Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60. Because the Preferred Stock issued is that of a subsidiary, but is convertible into shares of the Company, the Company has recorded the Preferred Stock of the subsidiary as "Minority interest" in the consolidated financial statements until its conversion into common stock of the Company. The "beneficial" conversion feature, therefore, has been charged to Minority interests (approximately $788,000) in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Such amount is considered a non-recurring charge in preparation of the summary pro forma data in Note 5. 1997 Sale of common stock and warrants of the Company - In January 1997, the Company commenced an offering and ultimately sold 1,075,000 equity units (each consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and one non-redeemable Class AA warrant) for $1,075,000. The Class AA warrants, as amended, entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at $0.65 per share until March 31, 2002. Authorized shares/Shares reserved for future issuance - At the annual meeting of shareholders on February 19, 1998 (including an adjournment to March 16, 1998), the shareholders of the Corporation approved an increase in the authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 shares to 65,000,000 shares. Additionally, the shareholders approved the adoption of changes to the bylaws of the Corporation to, among other matters, permit the Board of Directors to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of the Company on terms to be set by the Board of Directors. The Company is also authorized to issue up to 750,000 shares of its acquisition preferred stock, $.01 par value, none of which are presently issued and outstanding. The acquisition preferred stock is permitted to be issued pursuant to (i) a statutory merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving entity, (ii) the acquisition by the Company of substantially all the assets or business of another entity or (iii) the acquisition by the Company of 50% or more of the voting securities of another entity. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix, before issuance, the voting powers, designations, preferences and other rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions applicable to each series of acquisition preferred stock. Common shares reserved for future issuance as of December 31, 1997, adjusted in the case of the 1998 F-12 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 stock option plan for the February 1998 increase to the shares available under such plan, are approximately as follows: Units sold in public offering in 1990: Class B warrants, subject to antidilution (see below)............ 1,292,000 Class E warrants, subject to antidilution (see below)............ 737,000 Unit Options, expired in 1997.................................... 0 Conversion feature of 10%/13% Convertible Notes, subject to antidilution and "pay in kind" provisions ($0.80, 2002 see Note 6) .................................................... 7,500,000 Conversion feature of BCA Preferred stock, stated at amount actually converted in full prior to March 31, 1998, (see above) ......................................................... 1,067,000 Third party options (see table below)............................ 1,050,000 1989 Stock Option Plan (see below)............................... 432,000 1989 Nonstatutory Plan (see below)............................... 25,000 1995 Stock Option Plan (as amended in 1998, see below)........... 8,000,000 Warrants issued in private placements: Class C warrants, expired during 1997........................... 0 Class D warrants, expired during 1997........................... 0 Class AA warrants ($0.65, 2002, see above)...................... 1,075,000 Class BB warrants ($0.72, 2002, see above)...................... 100,000 Class CC warrants ($1.03, 2002, see above)...................... 10,000 Class DD warrants ($1.75, 2002, see above)...................... 2,400,000 Class EE warrants ($0.80, 2002 see Note 6)...................... 500,000 ---------- 24,188,000 ---------- Class B and Class E Warrants - The Company's Class B warrants were issued in connection with a 1990 public offering of securities of the Company. The Class E Warrants were issued in connection with a "Discounted Warrant Plan" offered to holders of the Class A Warrants (all of which have been exercised or expired) and Class B Warrants issued in connection with the public offering in 1990. The Class B and Class E Warrants are presently exercisable, were due to expire in January 1998, have been extended to October 17, 1998 and are subject to anti-dilution provisions. As a result of the financings completed in 1997, the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants were triggered and resulting in the following revisions to the warrant price and the number of shares subject to warrant:
Exercise price Number of shares Exercise price Number of shares per warrant per warrant per share subject to warrant -------------- ---------------- ---------------------------------- Class B Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.50 1.2 $1.25 969,191 Current $1.14 1.6 $ .71 1,292,254 Class E Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.25 1.1 $1.14 540,747 Current $0.95 1.5 $ .63 737,382
The 1998 private placement discussed in the following paragraphs may trigger the operation of antidilution provisions of the Class B and Class E warrants and will trigger the operation of the antidilution provisions of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes discussed in Note 6. F-13 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 1998 Private placement of common shares and warrants - Beginning on April 14, 1998, the Company commenced a private offering of its common stock and warrants. The offering contemplates aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 for the purchase of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years by seven accredited investors. Through April 16, 1998 the Company issued 1,881,188 shares of common stock, together with warrants to purchase 237,500 common shares at $2.05 per share for three years, to private investors in exchange for $1,900,000, less $475,000 held in escrow pending the Company's filing of a registration statement covering the shares and shares underlying the warrants prior to June 13, 1998. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" pursuant to a schedule initially in four $300,000 increments and then in four $200,000 increments on eight occasions commencing with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares and again 60 days later and then in 30 day intervals. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued using a 23% discount to the market price, as defined, at that time. The operation of this provision could result in significantly greater number of shares being issued. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company is exposed to significant penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares within 130 days, has agreed not to issue certain financings and has agreed to pay a placement agent a 6.5% fee in connection with the transaction. Stock Options In June 1995, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan"). The 1995 Plan supercedes and closes all prior option plans and provides for the granting of incentive stock options ("ISOs") and/or nonqualified stock options to employees, directors or consultants of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The option price per share for ISOs granted under the 1995 Plan shall not be less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and are exercisable over various periods up to ten years from the date of grant. No option may be granted under the 1995 Plan after June 2005. At December 31, 1996, there were 219,500 shares available for granting of future options. In 1997, the Company issued option grants under the 1995 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 3,984,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, approximately 3,764,500 of which were subject to approval by shareholders of an amendment to the Company's 1995 Plan. The amendment, approved at the 1997 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in February 1998, increases the number of shares under the 1995 Plan from 2,000,000 to 8,000,000 shares. In 1989, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of a 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Plan"). The 1989 Plan provided for the granting of incentive stock options and/or nonqualified stock options to key employees and consultants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a price per share not less than the fair market value on the date of grant. In 1992, the Plan was amended to: (a) increase the number of shares to 1,565,957, (b) permit the granting of nonqualified stock options at a price per share less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant and (c) permit options to be exercised up to two years after termination of employment under certain circumstances. Options vest and are exercisable over various periods up to six years from the date of grant. In 1989, the Company also adopted a Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Nonstatutory Plan") for directors. Under the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan, the Company could grant options for the purchase of an aggregate of 355,000 shares of common stock at not less than fair market value at the date of grant. Pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Plan, no options may be granted under the 1989 Plan or the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan subsequent to June 22, 1995. Option activity during each of the two years ended December 31, 1997 for the 1989 Plan and the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan is summarized as follows: F-14 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997

Such approval was received in February 1998. Generally accepted accounting principles require that a charge to compensation expense be made if the market value of the stock on the date of shareholder approval exceeds the market value on the date of grant. The closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of the shareholder vote was approximately $1.41. Options to purchase approximately 1.8 million shares were granted at prices that, although fair market value at the time of grant, were lower than $1.41. As a result, the Company will record a charge to compensation expense of approximately $1,200,000 in the first quarter of 1998. Primarily as a result of the acquisition activity of the Company, 550,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options were granted to eight investment bankers and other vendors who, as third parties, are outside of the 1995 Plan, as amended. The options are exercisable for from two to ten years, 375,000 shares at a price of $0.75 per share and 175,000 shares at a price of $1.52 per share. During 1996, the Company granted 100,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third F-15 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 party, which are exercisable for a period of ten years at a price of $1.17 per share. In addition, during 1995, the Company granted 300,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which are exercisable for a period of eighteen months at a price of $1.05 per share, and 5,000 nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which were cancelled in 1996. Further, in 1994 the Company granted 100,000 nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which vest ratably over two years and are exercisable for a period of five years at a price of $1.69 per share. At December 31, 1997, 1,050,000 of these options are outstanding. The following table summarizes information about the options to third parties (1,050,000) and warrants not reflected as granted as part of any option plan. Options/warrants Outstanding ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Weighted Average Range of Number Outstanding at Remaining Weighted Average Exercise Price December 31, 1997 Contractual Life Exercise Price ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $0.65 to $1.00 2,787,382 3.2 years $0.77 $1.01 to $1.75 4,377,254 3.4 years $1.50 ========================================================================= $0.65 to $1.75 7,164,636 3.3 years $1.22 ========================================================================= The Company recorded a charge to selling, general and administrative costs of approximately $175,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 related to the estimated fair value of the options granted to consultants. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based compensation" which requires that the information be determined as if the Company has accounted for its stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair value method of that statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company's pro forma information follows: December 31, December 31, 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ Pro forma net loss: Continuing operations $(4,995,000) $(1,617,000) Discontinued operations (1,376,000) (245,000) ----------- ----------- Total $(6,371,000) $(1,862,000) =========== =========== Pro forma net loss per share: Basic Continuing operations $ (.31) $ (.11) Discontinued operations $ (.09) $ (.02) ----------- ----------- $ (.40) $ (.13) ----------- ----------- Assuming dilution Continuing operations $ (.32) $ (.11) Discontinued operations $ (.09) $ (.02) ----------- ----------- $ (.41) $ (.13) =========== =========== The fair value of these options at the date of the grant was estimated with the following weighted average assumptions for 1997 and 1996: risk free interest rates ranging from 6.25% to 6.36%, no dividend yield, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common stock ranging from 49% to 76%, and a weighted average expected life of the options ranging from six to ten years. Because Statement 123 is applicable only to options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 and employee stock options granted vest over a period from one to four years, its pro forma effect will not be fully reflected in pro forma net loss. F-16 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 The following table summarizes information about stock options, including those to third parties, outstanding at December 31, 1997:

The weighted average fair value of all stock options granted in 1997 was $.63 per share. F-17 8. Discontinued Operations Ergonomic Consulting Services Division - In December 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to sell the operations of its Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD"). ECSD has not generated operating profits and is no longer considered a core asset in light of the Company's current strategy. The plan of disposition involved finding a strategic buyer who would take over the Company's contractual commitments (some of which are long-term) to consulting division customers and liquidating the remaining assets through collection (with respect to receivables) or sale or disposal (with respect to furniture and equipment). On February 9, 1998, the Company closed on the sale of the revenue contract rights and transfer of the obligations for certain related personnel of the ECSD to a third party. Terms of the sale call for the payment of a portion of future revenues of the contracts sold as well as a portion of certain follow-on work, or referrals for work provided by the Company. At December 31, 1997, assets of the ECSD were approximately, 155,000, consisting principally of billed and unbilled receivables, and liabilities were approximately $76,000 consisting principally of trade payables. The operations of the ECSD from January 1, 1998 through disposal on February 9, 1998 did not generate a loss due to the high utilization of personnel on contracts during that time. Approximately $50,000 has been accrued in the December 31, 1997 financial statements as a loss on disposal representing management's estimate of the write-off of furniture and equipment and accrual of certain lease costs. There was no material severance paid in connection with the discontinuance of the ECSD. Revenues, gross margin and net loss for ECSD are approximately the following for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996: 1997 1996 --------- --------- Revenues $ 467,000 $ 576,000 Gross Margin $ 183,000 $ 247,000 Net Loss $(356,000) $(245,000) HumanCAD Systems Operations - During late February 1998, as a result of specific events at the time, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to seek alternative value for the HumanCAD Systems operations ("HCAD") by (i) initially reducing the activity and (ii) seeking a strategic or management buyer for the operation. In December 1997, the Company had reached agreement with a funding source to provide approximately $2.5 million for development and marketing of the Company's existing and planned HCAD ergonomic modeling software products. In January 1998, the Company commenced executing the business plan contemplated by the financing but in late February 1998, the funding source advised the Company that they were no longer willing to go forward with the planned financing. The Company is seeking a strategic or possible management buyer for a majority of HCAD. The measurement date for the discontinuance is February 1998, at which time losses from January 1, 1998 through February 1998 will be recorded and a provision for discontinued operations (principally severance and non-cancellable lease costs) will be made. Such amount is expected to exceed $500,000. The Company has reflected the 1997 operations of HCAD as a discontinued operation in the December 31, 1997 financial statements. At December 31, 1997, assets of the HCAD were approximately $98,000 consisting principally of customer receivables, certain computer and communications equipment, furniture, and inventory. Liabilities were approximately $60,000 consisting principally of trade payables and payroll. Revenues, gross margin and net loss for HCAD are approximately the following for the year ended December 31, 1997 (HCAD did not operate in 1996): 1997 ----------- Revenues $ 135,000 Gross Margin $ 125,000 Net Loss $(1,000,000) F-18 9. Commitments and contingencies Leases - The Company leases its office space for a term extending through March 31, 2000. In August, 1996, this lease was modified to reflect a reduction in leased space. Additionally, the Company has entered into various operating leases for equipment. Future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases for years December 31 are as follows: 1998 $541,000 1999 406,000 2000 256,000 2001 77,000 Thereafter 88,000 Rent expense in 1997 and 1996, under all operating leases, was approximately $550,000 and $179,000, respectively. Collective bargaining agreement - Approximately 155 of Drew Shoe's approximately 255 employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with a union. The contract covering such employees is due to expire in May 1998. Litigation - In January 1998, a third party filed suit against the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary alleging that it is due a fee of not less than $297,000 in connection with the Company's acquisition of Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe disputes this claim and the Company intends to vigorously defend this action. There are no other material legal proceedings pending against the Company. 10. Pension The Company has two noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Benefits under the plan covering nonunion employees are based on average monthly compensation and years of service. Benefits under the plan covering union employees are based on years of service. The Company's policy is to make contributions to the plans sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements. Effective September 3, 1997, the Company's non-union plan was frozen and no future benefits will accrue to participants in the plan. The net pension liability at December 31, 1997 reflects the result of these plan changes. F-19 A summary of the components of net periodic pension cost for the period from September 22, 1997 to December 31, 1997 is as follows: Service cost $ 9,000 Interest 33,000 Actual return on plan assets (14,000) Amortization and deferral (4,000) -------- Net pension cost $ 24,000 ======== The following table sets forth the funded status and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 1997: Actuarial present value of benefit obligation: Vested benefit $1,525,000 Nonvested benefits 70,000 ---------- Accumulated and projected benefit obligation 1,595,000 Plan assets at fair market value 1,056,000 ---------- Accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets 539,000 Accrued pension cost $ 539,000 Significant assumptions used in the accounting for the defined benefit plans were as follows: Discount rate 7.00% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.25% The plans assets are invested in an annuity investment fund, certificates of deposit, insurance contracts and interest bearing cash accounts. 11. Other Other assets- Other noncurrent assets principally include patent costs of approximately $147,000 (net of related amortization of approximately $61,000), and cash surrender value of life insurance (approximately $88,000). Goodwill (preliminary) in connection with the Drew acquisition is included in other assets and totals approximately $21,000. Other non-current liabilities- Other non-current liabilities consist principally of accrued pension cost and certain non-current obligations under contracts and commitments in connection with the acquisition of Drew Shoe. Costs of financings not completed- In the third quarter of 1997, the Company was able to secure more favorable acquisition financing and credit facility for its acquisition of Drew Shoe than it had originally expected. As a result, the Company elected not to complete a proposed acquisition financing and a proposed credit facility. Costs associated with such uncompleted financings of approximately $130,000 were charged to Interest and financing costs in the year ended December 31, 1997. Charges to fourth quarter operations - Significant charges to operations in the fourth quarter of 1997 include: (i) approximately $175,000 for the estimated value of options granted to consultants in May and September 1997, (ii) accrual of contractual management bonuses for three executives of approximately $75,000 (including $25,000 related to discontinued operations), (iii) write off of approximately $75,000 of capitalized software costs no longer considered realizable (included in discontinued operations) and (iv) costs of approximately $235,000 related to a collaborative research effort (microvalve) and certain software development costs. F-20 Advertising expense - Advertising expense for Drew Shoe were approximately $125,000 for the period of inclusion of Drew Shoe in the Company's financial statements for 1997. Such costs are expensed as incurred. Significant customer - One customer accounts for approximately 11% of the Company's revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997.

See accompanying notes. F-25 BCAM International, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) March 31, 1998 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Financial position at March 31, 1998 and results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 include the financial position and results of operations of Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe") since its acquisition by the Company on September 22, 1997 (see Note 3). Results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997 do not reflect the results of Drew Shoe (because this period precedes the acquisition of Drew Shoe) and have been restated to reflect, as discontinued operations, the Company's Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD") and HumanCAD Systems Division ("HCAD"). Results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of the Company (at December 31, 1997 and for the two year periods then ended) and the audited statements of operations and cash flows of Drew Shoe (for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996) included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997. 2. Description of Business and Principles of Consolidation BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") has been primarily a software, technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe") as described in Note 3. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ECSD. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of ECSD due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of HumanCAD as a result of the lack of available financing, on acceptable terms to the Company, to further the necessary business development activities of that division. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The Company's focus is on creating value for its shareholders through its investment in medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and its proprietary "microvalve". The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BCAM International, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Drew Shoe (medical footwear), BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies), BCA Services, Inc. (principally ECSD which has been discontinued), and HumanCAD Systems, Inc. (principally software development and marketing which has been discontinued). F-26 3. Acquisition of Drew Shoe Corporation Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. In addition, Drew Shoe operates 15 retail shoe specialty stores. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. Under such method, the purchase price paid plus costs of the acquisition are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired company based on the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired. The remaining amount, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired company are consolidated with the Company's operations beginning on the date of purchase. At December 31, 1997, a preliminary estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities has been made based upon certain appraisals and other data that is preliminary and subject to change. Based upon such preliminary evaluation at December 31, 1997, approximately $21,000 of goodwill has been recorded in connection with the acquisition of Drew Shoe. The following summary shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997 assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of January 1, 1997. This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non- recurring charges for beneficial conversion features of certain security placements and other costs which are discussed in Note 4 below and in Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 1997) and the amortization of fair value adjustments principally for increased depreciation and amortization. The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficiently available net operating losses available to offset any anticipated profits from Drew Shoe. Quarter ended March 31, 1997 -------------- Revenues $ 3,700,000 ----------- Loss from operations $ (228,000) ----------- Loss from continuing operations, excluding non-recurring charges $ (593,000) ----------- Net Loss, excluding non-recurring charges $ (643,000) ----------- 4. Long Term Debt and Convertible Notes Secured bank debt - Simultaneously with the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Drew Shoe, entered into a credit facility with a commercial bank consisting of: (i) a revolving line of credit ("revolver") which is based upon agreed upon percentages of accounts receivable and inventory and (ii) a term loan of $1,000,000. As of March 31, 1998, Drew Shoe had outstanding borrowings of approximately $2,789,000 under the revolver and believes it had another approximately $311,000 available. The revolving line of credit matures on September 30, 1999, and calls for current payments of interest at a rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at March 31, 1998). The term loan portion of the credit facility also bears an interest rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at March 31, 1998) and is payable in monthly principal installments of $11,905, plus interest, through September 30, 2000 with a payment due at that time of $583,000. Both the revolving line of credit and term loan may be used for general working capital purposes and are guaranteed by the Company. The credit facility with this bank, as amended on May 14, 1998, requires Drew Shoe to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, principally net worth and cash interest coverage, and contains restrictions on the transfer of cash to the Company. F-27 Costs incurred in connection with the bank term loan and revolving credit totaling approximately $75,000, are included in Deferred finance cost and are being amortized to Interest and financing cost using the effective interest method over a two year period. Secured 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants - In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, on September 19, 1997, the Company issued convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes"), and Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants, in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000. The Convertible Notes are due, as amended, on April 16, 1999, unless at any time after September 19, 1998 they are converted, at $.80 per share, into 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company (subject to antidilution provisions). The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of additional Convertible Notes ("payment in kind") in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. On March 19, 1998, the Company elected to make the semiannual interest payment in kind. As such, the Company increased the related obligation by $390,000. On April 14, 1998, the noteholders and the Company entered into the First Amendment of the Note Purchase Agreement (together with a Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) in order to restructure the obligation. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement), (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. As a result of the restructuring, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation ($6,390,000 including $390,000 of interest "paid in kind" on March 19, 1998) in approximately one year or face default and foreclosure on the security. It is the Company's intention to refinance or otherwise restructure this obligation prior to its maturity. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in the second quarter of 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. The Company has allocated approximately $1,872,000 of the $6,000,000 received from the sale of the Convertible Notes and Warrants as the estimated value of the detachable warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes resulting in a discount to the value assigned to the Convertible Notes. Such amount has been amortized over the initial five-year term of the Convertible Notes in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Deferred financing costs of approximately $825,000 in connection with the transaction have been amortized over the initial five-year term of the Convertible Notes in the accompanying financial statements. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on September 19, 1998 was approximately $1.50 and approximately $1.25 at March 19, 1998 (when additional Convertible Notes were issued as payment in kind for interest). In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued. Statement D-60 requires certain accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the Convertible Notes discussed above). This accounting requires that the beneficial value be charged to operations (based upon the traded market price, without discount, compared to the conversion price) in the case of a convertible note over a period reflecting the shortest period in which the investor has to exercise and under the F-28 most favorable terms to the investor. As such, the Company has charged approximately $5,925,000 at September 19, 1997, and an additional $219,000 at March 19, 1998, to Unamortized Charge for Beneficial Debt Conversion in the shareholders' equity section of its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Such amount represents the value of the beneficial debt conversion feature of the Convertible Notes measured at the date of issuance in September 1997 and for the payment in kind in March 1998. This amount is being charged to Interest and financing costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations at the rate, as adjusted for the March 1998 payment in kind, of approximately $1,591,000 per quarter until September 19, 1998. This charge to operations is considered a non-recurring charge in the preparation of the summary pro-forma data contained in Note 3. At March 31, 1998, long term debt consists of the following: 10%/13% Convertible Notes, face amount $6,390,000, net of approximately $1,673,000 of unamortized debt discount with interest payable on March 19 and September 19, due April 16, 1999 unless earlier converted $4,717,000 Revolving credit arrangement with a bank, payable on September 30, 1999, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5% 2,789,000 Term Loan agreement with a bank, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5% payable in monthly principal installments of $11,905 plus interest through September 30, 2000 when the final payment of $583,000 is due. 929,000 Notes payable to sellers of Drew Shoe (including $187,500 payable to the ongoing President of Drew Shoe), bearing interest at 8%, with monthly payments of principal aggregating $8,333 plus interest and balloon payments aggregating $200,000 on September 19, 1999 350,000 All other 355,000 ---------- Total long term debt 9,140,000 less: current portion (573,000) ---------- $8,567,000 ========== Principal payment requirements on the above obligations, adjusted for the debt restructure described above is approximately as follows subsequent to March 31, 1998: Years ended Amount ----------- 1998 $ 573,000 1999 9,550,000 2000 690,000 ----------- 10,813,000 Less unamortized debt discount (1,673,000) ----------- Total Long-term Debt at March 31, 1998 $ 9,140,000 ----------- F-29 5. Private Placements 1998 Private placement of common shares and warrants - On April 22, 1998, the Company completed a private offering of its common stock and warrants. The offering raised aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 for the purchase of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years by six accredited investors. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" pursuant to a schedule initially in four $300,000 increments and then in four $200,000 increments on eight occasions commencing with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares and again 60 days later and then in 30 day intervals. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued using a 23% discount to the market price, as defined, at that time. The operation of this provision could result in a significantly greater number of shares being issued. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company has agreed not to issue certain financings and has agreed to pay a placement agent a 6.5% fee in connection with the transaction. 1997 Sale of common stock and warrants of the Company - In January 1997, the Company commenced an offering and ultimately sold 1,075,000 equity units (each consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and one non-redeemable Class AA warrant) for $1,075,000. The Class AA warrants, as amended, entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at $0.65 per share until March 31, 2002. In April 1998, warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock were exercised by he holders. During 1997 the Company issued Convertible Preferred Stock of its BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA") subsidiary (and certain warrants) which were convertible into common stock of the Company (as discussed in Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 1997 included in the Company's Form 10-KSB). During the three months ended March 31, 1998, the remaining Convertible Preferred Stock of BCA was converted into 1,066,585 shares of the Company's common stock at an average conversion price of approximately $0.65 per share. 6. Discontinued Operations Ergonomic Consulting Services Division - In December 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to sell the operations of its Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD"). ECSD has not generated operating profits and is no longer considered a core asset in light of the Company's current strategy. The plan of disposition involved finding a strategic buyer who would take over the Company's contractual commitments (some of which are long-term) to consulting division customers and liquidating the remaining assets through collection (with respect to receivables) or sale or disposal (with respect to furniture and equipment). On February 9, 1998, the Company closed on the sale of the revenue contract rights and transfer of the obligations for certain related personnel of the ECSD to a third party. Terms of the sale call for the payment of a portion of future revenues of the contracts sold as well as a portion of certain follow-on work, or referrals for work provided by the Company. At March 31, 1998, assets of the ECSD were approximately $180,000, and liabilities were not material. The operations of the ECSD from January 1, 1998 through disposal on February 9, 1998 did not generate a loss due to the high utilization of personnel on contracts during that time. Approximately $50,000 has been accrued in the December 31, 1997 financial statements as a loss on disposal representing management's estimate of the write-off of furniture and equipment and accrual of certain lease costs. Management believes that the $50,000 accrual recorded in December 1997 continues to be adequate at March 31, 1998. There was no material severance paid in connection with the discontinuance of the ECSD. HumanCAD Systems Operations - During late February 1998, as a result of specific events at the time, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to seek alternative value for the HumanCAD Systems F-30 operations ("HCAD") by (i) initially reducing the activity and (ii) seeking a strategic or management buyer for the operation. In December 1997, the Company had reached agreement with a funding source to provide approximately $2.5 million for development and marketing of the Company's existing and planned HCAD ergonomic modeling software products. In January 1998, the Company commenced executing the business plan contemplated by the financing, but in late February 1998 the funding source advised the Company that they were no longer willing to go forward with the planned financing. The Company continues to seek a strategic or possible management buyer for HCAD. The measurement date for the discontinuance is February 1998, at which time losses from January 1, 1998 through February 1998 have been recorded and a provision for discontinued operations (principally severance and non-cancelable lease costs) has been made. At March 31, 1998, assets of the HCAD were approximately $90,000 (principally receivables and equipment) and liabilities (excluding intercompany) were approximately $300,000 consisting principally of trade payables and payroll. Revenues and net loss for ECSD and HCAD discontinued operations are approximately the following for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 and 1997: 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Revenues $ 202,000 $ 71,000 Net Loss $ (803,000) $ (50,000) 7. Other Per share data - In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per Share. Statement 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Net loss per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents have been excluded because their effect is antidilutive. Income taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The Company has not reflected a benefit for income taxes in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, since the future availability of net operating loss carryforwards have been offset in full by valuation allowances in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109. Antidilution adjustments to 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Class B Warrants and Class E Warrants - Principally as a result of the 1998 Private Placement of common stock and warrants in April 1998, the Company believes that the antidilution provisions of the Convertible Notes and the Class B and Class E Warrants have been triggered. The calculation of the revised amounts has not yet been completed by the Company.

See Notes to Financial Statements. F-35 Note 1 - Business and summary of accounting policies: Business: Drew Shoe Corporation (the "Company") designs, manufactures, imports, markets and distributes women's and men's shoes for sale to independent retailers and through Company-owned retail operations throughout the United States. Basis of accounting/Use of estimates: The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the historical basis of accounting of the Company prior to its acquisition, on September 22, 1997, by BCAM International, Inc. ("BCAM"). Results of operations and cash flows on the historical basis of accounting may not be indicative of future results of operations. This is because, among other factors, the additional depreciation, amortization or other charges which may result from the revaluation of the assets and liabilities of the Company in connection with the acquisition. Further, the recording of other acquisition adjustments, as well as future events and conditions, may affect comparisons. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Financial instruments and off-balance-sheet risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed Federally insured limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, their dispersion across different geographic areas, and generally short payment terms. In addition, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. Property and equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Goodwill: Goodwill, included in other assets, is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from five to twenty years. Revenue recognition: Revenue from wholesale product sales is recognized at the time products are shipped. Revenue from retail product sales through Company-owned retail operations is recognized at the point of sale. Income taxes: F-36 The Company has elected to be treated as an "S" Corporation under the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these sections, corporate income or loss, in general, is allocated to the stockholders for inclusion in their personal income tax returns. Accordingly, there is no provision for Federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The Company has also elected to be treated as an "S" Corporation in the states in which it files corporate income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for state income taxes has been provided in the accompanying financial statements. Advertising: The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs charged to operations were approximately $321,000 and $364,000 for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Note 2 - Inventories: Inventories used in the computation of cost of goods sold were approximately $6,378,000 and $6,694,000 at September 22, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. Note 3 - Property and equipment: Property and equipment consists of the following at September 22, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, and were amortized utilizing the estimated useful lives indicated below: Range of Estimated September December Useful Lives 22, 1997 31, 1996 ------------ ---------- --------- Land $ 100,000 $ 100,000 Building and improvements 10-35 years 857,000 865,325 Machinery and equipment 5-13 years 2,742,000 2,614,715 ------------ ----------- Total 3,699,000 3,580,040 Less accumulated depreciation 2,397,000 2,229,895 ------------ ----------- Total $ 1,302,000 $ 1,350,145 ============ =========== F-37 Note 4 - Notes payable - and long term debt: Charges for interest included in the accompanying Statements of Operations and Cash Flows are based principally upon the following historical borrowings of the Company: Approximate Weighted Average Borrowings ------------ To September 22, 1997 ------------ Revolving credit (prime) and Bankers Acceptance ($500,000 at 7.25%) facility with a Bank $2,164,000 Mortgage Note payable with interest at prime plus .25 375,000 Notes payable to related party with interest at prime 214,000 Debentures payable to related parties with interest at 10% 845,000 All other 25,000 ---------- Total $3,623,000 ========== The Revolving Credit and Banker Acceptance facility, Mortgage Notes and Debentures were repaid on September 22, 1997 in connection with the acquisition by BCAM. Interest charged to the Statement of Operations for related parties approximated $108,000 and $119,000 in the period ended September 22, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. Principal payment requirements on the above obligations, as adjusted for the refinancing discussed in Note 9, in each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 1997 are as follows: Year Ending December 31, Amount ------------ ---------- 1998 $ 148,000 1999 2,980,000 2000 694,000 2001 2,000 2002 2,000 Note 5 - Pension plans: The Company has two noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Benefits under the plan covering nonunion employees are based on average monthly compensation and years of service. Benefits under the plan covering union employees are based on years of service. The Company's policy is to make contributions to the plans sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements. Effective September 3, 1997, the Company's non-union plan was frozen and no future benefits will accrue to participants in the plan. The net pension liability at December 31, 1997 reflects the result of these plan changes with no material curtailment gain or loss. A summary of the components of net periodic pension cost for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 is as follows: F-38 1997 1996 --------- --------- Service cost $ 28,000 $ 136,000 Interest 100,000 144,000 Actual return on plan assets (40,000) (46,000) Amortization and deferral (13,000) (13,000) --------- --------- Net pension cost $ 75,000 $ 221,000 ========= ========= Significant assumptions used in the accounting for the defined benefit plans were as follows: Discount rate 7.00% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.25% Effective September 3, 1997, the accrual of future benefits under the nonunion defined benefit pension plan was suspended. The effect of the curtailment of the nonunion plan on the Company's financial statements at December 31, 1996 cannot currently be determined. Note 6 - Commitments and other matters: Lease commitments: The Company leases retail space and certain machinery and equipment under operating leases that expire through 2003. Related rent expense amounted to approximately $269,000 and $369,000 for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Future minimum rental payments required under the non-cancelable operating leases in years subsequent to December 31, 1997 are as follows: Year Ending December 31, Amount ------------ -------- 1998 $390,000 1999 251,000 2000 100,000 2001 38,000 2002 28,000 Collective bargaining agreement: At September 22, 1997, approximately 60% of the Company's workforce is represented under a collective bargaining agreement which expires May 31, 1998. Concentrations: The Company relies to a large extent on medical footwear for sales. Approximately 60% of the Company's sales are women's shoes. One customer accounts for more than approximately 11% of the Company's sales. Note 7 - Provision for income taxes: A reconciliation of income taxes based on pre-tax income and the Federal statutory rate to the Company's effective rate for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996 F-39 follows: Period ended Year ended September December 22, 1997 31, 1996 ------------ ---------- Federal statutory income tax rate 34.0% 34.0% Increase (decrease) resulting from: State income taxes, net of Federal tax benefit 7.8 7.0 "S" Corporation income not subject to Federal or state tax (48.6) (42.7) Other 6.8 1.7 ------------ ---------- Effective rate --% --% ============ ========== Note 8 - Unaudited proforma income tax information: Unaudited proforma income tax information as if the Company had been a "C" Corporation subject to Federal and state income taxes follows: Period ended Year ended September December 22, 1997 31, 1996 --------- --------- Income before income taxes $ 191,000 $ 26,000 Pro forma provision for income taxes (73,000) (10,000) --------- --------- Pro forma net income $ 118,000 $ 16,000 ========= ========= Note 9 - Subsequent events: Effective September 22, 1997, the Company's stockholders sold all of the outstanding common stock of the Company to BCAM International, Inc. ("BCAM"), a publicly-held software technology and consulting company, for cash and other consideration. On September 22, 1997, the Company entered into a new $4,500,000 revolving credit facility and a $1,000,000 term loan with the Bank. Under the terms of the revolving credit facility, the Company may borrow a maximum of 80% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, and 35% of eligible inventory, as defined. Such borrowings bear interest at the prime rate plus 1.5%, payable monthly. Principal payments are not required under the revolving credit facility until expiration on September 30, 1999. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the term loan are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and guaranteed by BCAM. The agreement contains various restrictive covenants including net worth requirements, limitations on dividends and distributions, limitations on transactions with affiliates, as defined, and the maintenance of a debt service coverage ratio. F-40 INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION On September 22, 1997 the Company acquired Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. The purchase price was paid by delivery to the two shareholders of Drew Shoe of an aggregate of $3,882,000 in cash, promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 and by delivery of an aggregate of 375,000 unregistered shares of the Company's Common Stock to one seller (valued at approximately $1.20 per share to reflect a discount for lack of registration). The promissory notes bear an interest rate of 8% per annum, are due on September 19, 1999, and are payable in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments aggregating $8,333.34 (plus interest) with final payments due in the twenty-fifth (25th) month aggregating $200,000. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. In addition Drew Shoe operates retail shoe specialty stores. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. Under such method, the purchase price paid plus costs of the acquisition are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired company based on the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired. The remaining amount, if any, is allocated to goodwill. At December 31, 1997, a preliminary estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities has been made based upon data which is preliminary and subject to change. Based upon such preliminary evaluation at December 31, 1997, there is not a material amount of goodwill to be recorded in the acquisition of Drew Shoe. In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, on September 19, 1997, the Company issued 10%/13% Subordinated Convertible Notes in the aggregate face amount of $6,000,000 (the "Convertible Notes"). In March 1998, the Company made an "in kind" interest payment of $390,000 thereby increasing the total outstanding amount to $6,390,000. The Convertible Notes are due, as amended in April 1998, on April 16, 1999, unless at any time after September 19, 1999, they are converted, at $.78 per share (as adjusted for antidilution provisions relative to the 1998 Private Placement), into 8,192,308 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of its convertible notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. The pro-forma financial information has been prepared assuming the payment of cash interest of 10%. In addition, the Company issued to the noteholders Non-Redeemable Warrants to purchase, as amended in April 1998, 2,034,884 shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.72 (as adjusted for antidilution provisions relative to the 1998 Private Placement) per share at any time prior to September 19, 2002. Further, any future material "repricings" pursuant to the 1998 Private Placement would cause additional adjustments to the exercise price per share and number of shares subject to warrant. The Company has recorded approximately $1,872,000 of the $6,000,000 received from the sale of the Convertible Notes and Warrants as the estimated value of the detachable warrants. Of the amount allocated to the detachable warrants, approximately $1.3 million has been written off in connection with the April 1998 debt restructure and the remainder is being written off ratably over the amended term of the obligation. Simultaneously with the acquisition, Drew Shoe entered into a secured credit facility with a commercial bank (guaranteed by the Company) which is further described in "Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements" of the Company at December 31, 1997. Approximately $3.7 million is outstanding under this agreement at June 30, 1998. The pro-forma financial data set forth below shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of January 1, 1997. This information is derived from the audited financial statements of the Company (consolidated) for the year ended December 31, 1997 and of Drew Shoe for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 (date of acquisition by the Company) (all, appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus). This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non-recurring charges which are discussed in "Notes 6 and 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" and the amortization of preliminary fair value adjustments principally for increased depreciation. The pro-forma information does not reflect the non-recurring charge which results from the April 1998 restructuring of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes. The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficiently available net operating losses to offset anticipated profits from Drew Shoe.

(j) To eliminate non-recurring charge for beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes. (k) To eliminate non-recurring financing charges for financing not completed. (l) To eliminate non-recurring charge for beneficial subsidiaries preferred stock conversion. F-43 General Notes: Note 1. The Company has identified certain cost savings and is evaluating other cost savings measures for implementation at Drew Shoe. The Company has not reflected any such cost savings in this pro-forma information because the specific identification of savings, net of new investments, is not yet finalized. Note 2. The Company has excluded from this pro forma information non-recurring charges related to the issuance of the acquisition financing and the preferred stock issued by a subsidiary (See Notes 6 and 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements). Such charges include: a. Non-recurring charge to Minority Interests for beneficial subsidiaries preferred stock conversion recorded in 1997. $ 788,000 b. Non recurring charge to interest and financing costs as a result of beneficial debt conversion feature of convertible notes to be amortized over 12 months ending September 19, 1998, approximately. $5,925,000 c. Non recurring charge to write off costs associated with proposed financings which the Company decided not to complete. $ 130,000 Note 3. The Company has not included a pro forma income tax provision because it will consolidate Drew Shoe for tax purposes and utilize existing net operating losses of the Company against any anticipated profits of Drew Shoe. While such net operating losses are subject to limitations as to their usage, the Company believes that it will have sufficient available net operating losses to offset the anticipated profits of Drew Shoe in the near term. Also, based on the existing results of operations and additional cash interest on a recurring basis, the consolidated company is likely to be generating additional pretax losses in the near term. F-44 PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Sections 721 through 725 of the New York Business Corporation Law provide that New York corporations shall have the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with actions, suits or proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that they were or are such directors, officers, employees or agents, against expenses incurred in such actions, suits or proceedings. Article Seventh of the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of directors and officers of the Company generally in accordance with New York law. Section 721 of the New York Business Corporation Law permits a corporation to enter into agreements with its directors and officers providing for indemnification for actions, suits or proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that they were or are such directors or officers, against expenses incurred in such actions, suits or proceedings, provided, however, that no such indemnification may be provided if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. Pursuant to such authority, the Company has entered into an agreement with each of its current directors indemnifying them to the maximum extent permitted by Section 721. The agreement provides for the indemnification of these individuals against any and all civil or criminal actions or proceedings brought as a result of such individual being a director or officer of the Company and any judgments and amounts paid in settlement costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees. No indemnification may be made, however, if a judgment or final adjudication establishes that the individual committed acts in bad faith or with deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he personally gained financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. Such indemnification shall be made only by the Board acting with a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to the action in question, or by independent legal counsel, or by the stockholders and in all cases only after a finding that the applicable standard of conduct has been met. Under Section 722(a), the corporation may indemnify any director or officer in any action (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) brought against him by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate was a director or officer of the corporation, or served another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity at the request of the corporation. Indemnification may be given for judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, if such director or officer is shown to have acted in good faith, in furtherance of a purpose believed to be in the best interests of the corporation, and, in the case of a criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reason to believe such conduct was unlawful. Section 722(c) of the New York Business Corporation Law provides for permissive indemnification by the corporation of directors and officers, sued by or in the right of the corporation, against reasonable expenses including attorney's fees unless the director or officer is found to have breached his duty to the corporation under Section 717 or Section 715(h) of the Business Corporation Law, respectively. Amounts paid under this section may not include amounts paid in settlement of a threatened or pending action and expenses incurred in defense of a threatened action or settlement of a pending action without court approval. Indemnification may be by court order under Section 724 or by approval of the corporation in the manner set forth in the statute. Under Section 723(a), success on the merits or otherwise entitles the director or officer to indemnification under Section 722. If not wholly successful, indemnification shall be made by the corporation only if a quorum of the board, not including parties to the action, finds that the standards of Section 722 have been met. If a quorum cannot be obtained, approval may be by the board upon (i) the opinion of independent legal counsel or (ii) a determination by the stockholders that the standards of conduct have been met by the director or officer. Expenses may be paid in advance if authorized by one of the methods discussed above. Under Section 724, if the corporation fails to provide indemnification, the director or officer may apply to the court and may receive indemnification to the extent authorized under Section 722. Expenses may also be advanced if the court finds the defendant director or officer to have raised genuine issues of fact or law. Expenses advanced must be repaid to the corporation if (i) the director or officer has not met the applicable standard which entitles him to indemnification or (ii) if he has been paid in excess of the amount to which he is entitled. Indemnification may not be made if it is inconsistent with the corporation's certificate, by-laws, board resolutions or agreements or a condition imposed by the court in approving a settlement. The New York Business Corporation Law permits a corporation through its certificate of incorporation to prospectively eliminate or limit the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, with certain exceptions. The exceptions include acts or omissions in bad faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, improper declaration of dividends, and transactions from which the director personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled. The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation exonerates its directors from personal liability to the extent permitted by this statutory provision. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is therefore unenforceable. Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution. The estimated expenses in connection with this offering are as follows: Accounting fees and expenses ............................................$ 7,500 Legal fees and expenses .................................................$10,000 Printing and Miscellaneous expenses .....................................$12,500 ------- TOTAL ...................................................................$30,000 ======= Item 26.

The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. (ii) Convertible Preferred stock of BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), a subsidiary of the Registrant ($1,200,000) - On July 22, 1997 BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, commenced an Offering (the "Offering") to sell up to 150 shares of BCA's Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for a total consideration of $1.5 million in a private offering to accredited investors. The Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Common Stock") at a price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock over a three day trading period ending on the day preceding the conversion date (the "Variable Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price could not be greater than 100% of the Variable Conversion Price on the first closing date (the "Fixed Conversion Price"). The Fixed Conversion price was $0.6563. In July and September 1997, the Company sold 100 shares ($1,000,000) of Convertible Preferred stock to Austost Anstalt Schaan ($500,000) and UFH Endowment LTD. ($500,000). Between November 1997 and March 1998, all of the Convertible Preferred stock issued was converted into common stock of the Company. In addition, purchasers of the Convertible Preferred stock received Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $0.7219. The warrants have a term of five years and the Common Stock underlying the warrants contains registration rights. On September 18, 1997, BCA closed a separate offering of its Preferred Stock plus warrants for $200,000 on similar terms and conditions as the Offering (excluding the existing fixed conversion feature and certain fees). As a result of this offering, 20 shares of Preferred Stock (convertible into the Company's Common Stock at a maximum price of $0.9331 per share) were issued, along with Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase up to 10,000 shares of Common Stock (at $1.0264 per share). The purchasers of the securities were Arcadia Mutual Fund, which purchased 15 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 7,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock, and David Morgenstern, who purchased 5 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock. All of the Convertible Preferred Stock issued in this offering was converted to Common Stock of the Company at an average price of approximately $0.79 per share prior to December 31, 1997. The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The two private placements of BCA preferred stock were made with the assistance of a placement agent, Corporate Capital Management, who charged a commission of 8% in fees and 2% in expenses plus warrants to purchase up to 50,000 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant at approximately $0.66 per share, for five years for the first offering and 6% in fees and no warrants for the second offering. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued which requires accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the preferred stock described above and the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants described below). This accounting results in significant charges to operations in connection with these financings as further described in Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. (iii) 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants ($6,000,000) - In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, on September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes to eight investors in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000 (the "Convertible Notes"). In March 1998, the Company made an "in kind" interest payment increasing the total outstanding amount to $6,390,000. The Convertible Notes are due, as amended in April 1998 (see "Debt restructuring" below), on April 16, 1999 unless at any time after September 19, 1998, they are converted, at $.78 per share (adjusted for antidilution provisions related to the 1998 Private Placement), into 8,192,308 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The conversion feature is subject to antidilution in certain circumstances including the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in 1998 and possible future dilution through the operation of the "repricing" provisions of the 1998 Private Placement discussed below. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of its Convertible Notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. In addition, the Company issued to the noteholders Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants to purchase, as amended in April 1998, 2,034,884 shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.72 per share (adjusting for antidilution provisions related to the 1998 Private Placement) at any time prior to September 19, 2002. Issuance of materially additional shares under the "repricing" provisions of the 1998 Private Placement would result in further antidilution adjustments. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on the date of the transaction was approximately $1.52 and on the date of the payment of interest in kind was approximately $1.25. The purchasers of the securities are set forth in the following table:
Common shares Common shares under Name of purchaser Amount paid(a) issuable warrants - -------------------------- -------------- ------------- ------------------- Impleo, LLC $5,325,000 6,826,923 1,695,737 621 Partners 159,750 204,808 50,872 R.

(a) Including 13% interest paid in kind on March 19, 1998. Kirr Marbach & Company, LLC, a registered investment advisor, is the managing general partner of 621 Partners, Appleton Associates and R. Weil & Associates, and together with Messrs Kirr, Marbach and Summerville may be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of Regulation 13D-G. The private placement of convertible notes and warrants to Impleo, LLC was made with the assistance of an investment banker, Josephberg Grosz and Company, who charged a cash fee of 6% ($300,000) of proceeds plus 187,500 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, at $0.80 per share, of the Registrant. The remaining $1,000,000 of proceeds was not subject to a commission. The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued which requires accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the preferred stock and the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants described above). This accounting results in significant charges to operations in connection with these financings as further described in Notes 6 and 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company also has, under generally accepted accounting principles, recorded approximately $1,872,000 as the estimated value of the detachable warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes. Reference is made to Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. (iv) Debt Restructuring - Effective April 14, 1998 the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and related warrants entered into a First Amendment (and related Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) of the September 1997 Note Purchase Agreement in order to restructure the obligation. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement), (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders of a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. (v) Sale of Common Stock and Warrants (April 1998) - - On April 14, 1998 the Company commenced an offering of $2,000,000 of its common stock and warrants in a private placement to accredited investors. Such offering was completed on April 22, 1998. The offering raised aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 for the purchase of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years by six accredited investors as follows:

(a) Prior to "repricing", if any, as discussed below and in footnote (a) of the Prospectus cover page. (b) Shares not subject to "repricing". (c) The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" in increments of invested proceeds pursuant to a schedule. The increments are initially four $300,000 increments and then four $200,000 increments on eight occasions. The repricing increments commence with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares, then one increment 60 days later and the remaining six increments in 30 day intervals thereafter. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued at 77% of the average closing bid price, as defined, for the five trading days immediately preceeding but not including, the "repricing" date. Each "repricing' calculation is made independent of the other "repricing" calculations. The operation of the "repricing" provision could result in significantly greater number of shares being issued than the amounts listed in the above table. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company is exposed to penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares by approximately the end of August 1998. The Company has agreed not to issue certain financings for 270 days after issuance of all shares under the "repricing" provisions without the consent of the investors and has agreed to a right of first refusal as defined in the agreements. The Company has paid a placement agent a 6.5% fee in connection with the transaction. The $2,000,000 issuance of common stock and warrants triggers the anti-dilution provisions of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and the Company's currently outstanding Class B and Class E warrants. See "Description of Securities" and Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Undertakings Required by Regulation S-B, Item 512 (a): The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a) (3) of the 1933 Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and (iii) to include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. (2) That, for determining liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering. (3) To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. Undertaking Required by Regulation S-B, Item 512 (e): Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
