DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE: None PART I ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS General Developed Technology Resource, Inc. (the Company or DTR) was incorporated on November 13, 1991 in the State of Minnesota to locate potentially viable technologies in the former Soviet Union (fSU) for transfer and sale to companies in the West. During the first two years of operations, the Company experienced limited success in technology transfer and shifted its focus to the sale and distribution of aviation security equipment in the fSU. In 1995, the Company formed a 50/50 joint venture called FoodMaster Corporation (hereinafter FoodMaster) with Ak-Bulak, a dairy just outside Almaty, Kazakhstan to produce and sell yogurt and other dairy products. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company sold its aviation security sales and service business to Gate Technologies for $810,000 which included reimbursement of expenses of $45,000. This transaction is more fully described in Item 6, "Discontinued Operations." The financial statements and related information reflect the sale of this business as discontinued operations. Additionally, overhead was reduced to the level necessary to effectively support continuing operations. After the sale of the aviation security business, the Company focused its attention almost exclusively on development of the dairy business in the fSU. Effective August 1996, the Company obtained an option to purchase 80% of Ak-Bulak, which went bankrupt subsequent to the establishment of FoodMaster. In January 1997, FoodMaster formed a joint venture in Akmola (now called Astana), the new capital of Kazakhstan, and began production of dairy products at this location in March 1997. On March 3, 1997, DTR and Agribusiness Partners International L.P. (API) established the FoodMaster International LLC (FMI) joint venture to acquire and operate dairies in the fSU. For a 40% interest in FMI, DTR contributed its 50% ownership in FoodMaster, the Ak-Bulak option, and its opportunities for a future acquisition of a dairy in Moldova. Exercise of the Ak- Bulak option by FMI in March 1997 increased the ownership in FoodMaster to 90%. API agreed to contribute $6 million dollars which was paid to FMI between March 1997 and June 1998 to further develop FMI's existing and future dairy operations in the fSU for a 60% interest in FMI. On September 11, 1998, DTR and API amended the FMI joint venture agreement to allow API to contribute up to an additional $6 million dollars for an additional 10% ownership. This additional contribution was paid to FMI between September 1998 and April 1999. As of December 31, 1998, API owned 67% and DTR owned 33% of FMI based on API's additional investment of $3.8 million. API contributed the remaining $2.2 million of the additional investment by April 1999 which reduced DTR's ownership to 30%. The investment proceeds received by FMI were used to fund expansion of existing facilities and to acquire four additional subsidiaries. DTR has a right to earn a greater ownership interest in FMI by achieving certain defined performance targets based on returns to API. Additionally, DTR manages the day-to-day operations of FMI under a management contract which has no contractual termination date. As of December 31, 1998, DTR has a 33% interest in FMI. All of FMI's subsidiaries are operating plants for manufacturing dairy products such as milk, yogurt, cheese, and ice cream or distribution companies to facilitate the distribution of these products. The following table sets forth FMI's ownership percentage in its subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997: December 31, October 31, Company Name Location 1998 1997 FoodMaster Corporation Almaty, Kazakhstan 90.00% 90.00% FoodMaster NC* Astana, Kazakhstan 20.00% 0.00% Fabrica produse lactate Hincesti Hincesti, Moldova 80.50% 73.74% Soroca Cheese Factory Soroca, Moldova 60.11% 0.00% JSC Bilosvit-Uman Uman, Ukraine 62.88% 0.00% FoodMaster Kyiv** Kyiv, Ukraine 100.00% 0.00% * FoodMaster Corporation owns 60% of FoodMaster NC. ** Denotes distribution company only. In November 1997, DTR's Board of Directors voted to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary called SXD, Inc. with an investment of $800,000 in cash and receivables. SXD owns and operates DTR's x-ray tube distribution business, and holds a minority interest in Phygen, Inc., a coating technology business. In addition, SXD has royalty rights to any patents sold by Armed, a cancer detection business. As of December 31, 1998, there is no reportable activity in either Phygen or Armed. In April 1999, DTR purchased a 67% ownership interest in Savory Snacks LLC for $123,305. This Wisconsin based company manages snack food companies in the former Soviet Union. Ongoing Business Strategy The Company's strategy is to provide management services and invest in food businesses in the fSU both by acquiring additional dairies for FMI and having FMI and other subsidiaries selling additional products including, but not limited to, dairy products. The Company plans to invest in and manage companies that are expected to eventually become market leaders in high margin products in the areas in which we choose to compete. This goal will be accomplished by dedication to brand development, the introduction of "profit products", quality control and standardization, control of the milk supply, and training of Company and subsidiary personnel. Business Operations Dairy and Food Processing DTR manages all of the dairy operations and distribution companies owned by FMI. These dairy operations manufacture and sell a variety of different dairy products, including but not limited to kefir, yogurt, cheese, ice cream, ice pops, butter and sour cream. From 1995 through February 1997, FoodMaster Corporation operations were consolidated in DTR's financial statements. After February 1997, FoodMaster's operations were no longer reported on a consolidated basis with DTR due to the transfer of DTR's ownership in FoodMaster to FMI. Beginning in March 1997, DTR recognizes all of its ownership in dairy operations in its Statement of Operations under the "Equity in (loss)earnings of FMI joint venture" and in its Balance Sheet under "Investment in FMI." In addition, DTR receives management fees for direct expense reimbursements with the potential to earn a greater ownership in FMI for reaching defined performance targets. There is no profit margin in the management fees received and these fees are reimbursed in accordance with a pre-approved budget between DTR and FMI. X-ray Tubes The Company distributed x-ray tubes through SXD, Inc. under an exclusive distribution agreement with Svetlana-Rentgen ("Svetlana"), a company located in the fSU until March 1999. Revenues from the sale of x-ray tubes accounted for 17.4%, 12.5% and 8.0% of DTR's total revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two months ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively. There are several companies that manufacture and sell x-ray tubes in direct competition to DTR. At present, the Company does not have a measurable market share and is phasing this division out of its operations. Food Packaging Equipment In November 1994, the Company signed an International Distribution Agreement with NiMCO Corporation of Crystal Lake, Illinois, granting the Company exclusive rights to sell certain NiMCO food packaging products in most areas of the fSU. This exclusivity expired on December 31, 1996. However, DTR continues to distribute NiMCO food packaging machines out of Crystal Lake, Illinois on a non-exclusive basis mainly to its foreign subsidiaries. Sales from food packaging equipment accounted for 7.8%, 51.9% and 13% of DTR's revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two months ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively. Competition Dairy and Food Processing The FMI subsidiary operations compete with several local companies, as well as foreign importers of products, under the FMI local brand names of FoodMaster, Alba and Bilosvit. However, the Company believes that FMI's products are superior to local competitors and priced competitively with imports. The FoodMaster name along with the local specialty brand names are recognized as quality products. In Almaty, Kazakhstan, FoodMaster's fluid milk products are estimated to hold a greater than 50% market share. Food Packaging Equipment Manufacturers producing competing equipment of similar performance to the NiMCO line of equipment include Tetra-Laval of Sweden, Elo-Pak of Norway, International Paper of the United States, Pastu-Pack of the UK, and Galdi of Italy. Some of these companies have been selling equipment in the fSU for more than 20 years. The Company does not currently have a measurable market share. At this time, DTR is not focusing on selling equipment to parties other than FMI subsidiaries on an "as needed" basis. Principal Suppliers Dairy and Food Processing Suppliers to the dairy operations consist of numerous dairy farmers located in the vicinity of the dairies. In addition, FMI receives packaging supplies from many suppliers throughout Europe and the United States. Food Packaging Equipment NiMCO, based in Crystal Lake, IL, was the sole supplier of packaging equipment for dairy based products. X-ray Tubes Svetlana Rentgen (Svetlana), based in the fSU, is the exclusive supplier of tubes. In accordance with its plan to phase out this operating division, the Company ended its relationship with Svetlana in March 1999. Major Customers For the year ended December 31, 1998, the two months ended December 31, 1997 and the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997, the Company recorded net equipment sales of $440,942, $346,844 and $2,467,790, respectively. The following table sets forth the name and location of each customer who accounted for 10% or more of the Company's sales for 1998 and each period in 1997, respectively: Percentage of Sales Two Months Year Ended Ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, October 31, Customer Name Location 1998 1997 1997 EG&G Astrophysics Long Beach, CA 47.1% 12.5% 9.0% Control Screening Fairfield, NJ 21.8% 6.9% 1.7% FoodMaster Int'l LLC Edina, MN 30.5% 40.3% 0.0% Kostenay Astana, Kazakhstan 0.0% 40.3% 0.0% Agro-Leasing Almaty, Kazakhstan 0.0% 0.0% 12.9% Governmental Regulations The Company's principal revenue-generating business activity in 1998 and 1997 was managing the FMI subsidiaries' manufacturing and selling of dairy products in the fSU. The governmental, political, social, and legal structures within countries of the fSU are evolving. In general, business must comply with decrees, laws, and instructions issued from a multitude of government bodies at the national and local levels. The government regulations that most affect the Company are in the areas of taxation, currency and customs regulation, business registration, and labor laws. To the best of management's knowledge, the Company is in full compliance with the laws in all the countries of the fSU in which business is conducted, and as necessary, may seek legal counsel in the United States or from local counsel in the applicable fSU country. Employees As of August 9, 1999, the Company had four full-time employees in its offices in Edina, Minnesota; one full-time employee in Almaty, Kazakhstan; three full-time employees in Hincesti, Moldova; and three full-time employees in Kyiv, Ukraine. All of the foreign-based employees are responsible for managing the dairy and financial operations of the FMI subsidiaries. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreements and it considers its employee relations to be satisfactory. ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY During 1997, the Company moved its corporate headquarters from Minnetonka, Minnesota to Edina, Minnesota. This move allowed the Company to reduce its space from 2,139 to 1,009 square feet and its monthly base rent from approximately $2,900 to $1,600. The lease has a term of 60 months and expires on April 30, 2002. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In 1996, the Company filed suit against a former officer for breach of contract. The employee filed a counterclaim for breach of the severance agreement. In December 1996, the lawsuit was settled with the former officer relinquishing 48,190 shares of the Company's Common Stock to satisfy a $29,035 receivable. DTR has no contingent or future liability. In 1996, a former employee filed a claim with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights and concurrently with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), charging the Company with age and national origin discrimination. In 1997, the Minnesota Department of Human Rights denied the claim. No further action has been taken by the former employee since the Department's decision. In the opinion of management, there are no material legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company as of December 31, 1998 or as of the date of filing of this Form 10- KSB. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to a vote of the shareholders during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 1998. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The Company's Common Stock was traded on the National Association of Securities Dealer Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ) from April 23, 1993 until November 3, 1995, when the Company was de-listed as a result of noncompliance with minimum per-share price requirements. After a three-for-one reverse split in December 1995, the Company was re-listed. In the first quarter of 1996, the Company fell below the listing requirements and was again de-listed. Since then, the Company's Common Stock has been quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol of DEVT. The following table sets forth the high and low daily average between the bid and sales prices for each quarter as reported on the NASDAQ or the OTC Bulletin Board during the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997.

The Company estimates there are 660 beneficial owners of its Common Stock. The transfer agent for the Company's Common Stock is Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A., 161 North Concord Exchange, South St. Paul, Minnesota, 55075-0738, telephone: (800) 468-9716 or (651) 450-4058. The Company has never declared nor paid any dividends on its Common Stock. The Board of Directors presently intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to declaration and payment of dividends will be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Statements other than current or historical information included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis and elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB, in future filings by Developed Technology Resource, Inc. (the Company or DTR) with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in DTR's press releases and oral statements made with the approval of authorized executive officers, should be considered "forward-looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. DTR wishes to caution the reader not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. On March 3, 1997, DTR and Agribusiness Partners International L.P. (API) established the FoodMaster International LLC (FMI) joint venture to acquire and operate dairies in the fSU. For a 40% interest in FMI, DTR contributed its 50% ownership in FoodMaster, the Ak-Bulak option, and its opportunities for a future acquisition of a dairy in Moldova. Exercise of the Ak- Bulak option by FMI in March 1997 increased the ownership in FoodMaster to 90%. API agreed to contribute $6 million dollars which was paid to FMI between March 1997 and June 1998 to further develop FMI's existing and future dairy operations in the fSU for a 60% interest in FMI. On September 11, 1998, DTR and API amended the FMI joint venture agreement to allow API to contribute up to an additional $6 million dollars for an additional 10% ownership. This additional contribution was paid to FMI between September 1998 and April 1999. As of December 31, 1998, API owned 67% and DTR owned 33% of FMI based on API's additional investment of $3.8 million. API contributed the remaining $2.2 million of the additional investment by April 1999 which reduced DTR's ownership to 30%. The investment proceeds received by FMI were used to fund expansion of existing facilities and to acquire four additional subsidiaries. DTR has a right to earn a greater ownership interest in FMI by achieving certain defined performance targets based on returns to API. Effective March 1997, DTR records its proportionate share (40% from March 1997 to September 1998 and 33% thereafter) of the net income or loss of FMI in the statement of operations as equity in (loss) earnings of FMI joint venture under the equity method of accounting. DTR also entered into a management agreement on March 3, 1997 with FMI, whereby DTR manages the day to day operations of FMI, manages the subsidiaries of FMI, and pursues future dairy acquisitions for FMI for a management fee. The management fee is a direct expense reimbursement, with no profit margin, in accordance with a pre-approved budget between DTR and FMI. Thus, management fees will increase or decrease as DTR's expenses incurred for management activities increase or decrease, with no effect on income because there is no profit margin provided for in the agreement. There is no stated contractual termination date in this agreement. Two Months Two Months Year Ended Year Ended Ended Ended December 31, October 31, December 31, December 31, 1998 1997 1997 1996 Revenues: FM Kazakhstan $ 0 $1,774,870 $ 0 $809,511 Equipment 137,042 428,890 279,644 (287) X-Ray Tube 303,900 264,030 67,200 37,800 Total Sales 440,942 2,467,790 346,844 847,024 Management Fee Income 1,281,322 802,492 190,548 0 Other Revenues 28,359 39,761 1,215 8,249 Total Revenues $1,750,623 $3,310,043 $538,607 $855,273 Cost of Sales: FM Kazakhstan $ 0 $ 871,937 $ 0 $503,042 Equipment 100,499 298,067 216,762 1,684 X-Ray Tube 260,950 228,445 57,600 32,900 Total Cost of Sales $ 361,499 $1,398,449 $274,362 $537,626 Results of Operations Revenues The Company generated total revenues of $1,750,623 and $3,310,043 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997, and revenues of $538,607 and $855,273 for the two-months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996. This 47% and 37% respective decrease in revenues is primarily the result of the change from the consolidated method of reporting FoodMaster's revenues to reporting the FMI joint venture operating results under the equity method as discussed above. In addition, it reflects the new focus of DTR in managing the FMI joint venture. Sales for the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997 totaled $440,942 and $2,467,790, respectively. Sales for the two months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 totaled $346,844 and $847,024, respectively. Sales resulted from three areas within DTR - dairy operations of FoodMaster (until February 1997 only), equipment sales, and x-ray tube sales. After February 1997, the dairy operations of FoodMaster are no longer reported on a consolidated basis with DTR due to the transfer of FoodMaster to FMI. The dairy operations of FoodMaster are consolidated in the financial statements of FMI, and DTR recognizes its share of FMI's income or loss as equity in earnings (loss) of FMI joint venture in DTR's Statements of Operations. FoodMaster sales from November 1996 through February 1997 were $1,774,870 or 71.9% of DTR's total sales for the year ended October 31, 1997. FoodMaster sales from November 1996 through December 1996 were $809,511 or 95.6% of DTR's total sales for the two months ended December 31, 1996. For the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997, sales of food packaging equipment were $137,042 (31.1%) and $428,890 (17.4%) of total sales, respectively. Sales of equipment occur primarily to subsidiaries of FMI throughout each year depending on the amount of new customers and growth among existing locations. Sales of food packaging equipment were $279,644 (80.6%) of total sales in the two months ended December 31, 1997. There were no sales of equipment in the final two months of 1996. Sales of equipment occur sporadically throughout the year and are not necessarily comparable by periods shorter than one year. Sales of x-ray tubes by SXD, Inc., DTR's 100% owned subsidiary, increased 15% to $303,900 in the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to sales of $264,030 for the year ended October 31, 1997. The $39,870 increase occurred due to an increase in the quantity of shipments to repeat customers during 1998. In the two months ended December 31, 1997, sales of x-ray tubes were $67,200 compared to $37,800 in the two months ended December 31, 1996. The 78% increase occurred due to the timing and quantity of orders during this period in 1997. Management fee revenues (which have no profit margin) billed to FMI for services was $1,281,322, $190,548 and $802,492 for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two months ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively, in accordance with its management agreement with FMI. The management fee began in March 1997. Therefore, the year ended October 31, 1997 only reflects eight months of management fee revenues. Management fees (which have no profit margin) are expected to increase with additional acquisitions by FMI. These acquisitions require additional management personnel, travel, training, and other resources. Cost of Sales Cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997 were $361,449 and $1,398,449, respectively. Cost of sales for the two months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $274,362 and $537,626, respectively. This 74% and 49% decrease in cost of sales is partly the result of the change from the consolidated method of reporting FoodMaster's revenues to reporting the FMI joint venture operating results under the equity method as discussed above, as well as other reasons noted below. Cost of sales reflects the cost of manufacturing the dairy products of FoodMaster for the final two months in 1996 through February 1997, and the cost of purchasing food packaging equipment and x-ray tubes. FoodMaster cost of sales was $871,937 or 49.1% of sales for the four-month period from November 1996 through February 1997 during the year ended October 31, 1997. FoodMaster incurred $503,042 of this cost during the final two months of 1996. Cost of sales on equipment sales was $100,499 resulting in a gross profit of 26.7% for the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to a cost of $298,067 and gross profit of 30.5% for the year ended October 31, 1997. During the two-fiscal month period ended December 31, 1997, the Company recorded cost of $216,762 on sales of equipment resulting in a gross profit of $62,882 or 22.5%. X-ray tubes cost of sales were $260,950 and $228,445 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997, respectively, and $57,600 and $32,900 during the two-month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Gross profit remained consistent with a 13% to 14% margin received on sales during all reported periods. Selling, general and administrative Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 were $1,391,611 compared to $1,382,334 for the year ended October 31, 1997. FoodMaster comprised $515,491 of the SG&A expense in 1997. Therefore, the Company's other SG&A expenses in 1997 excluding the FoodMaster operations were $866,843. The $524,768 increase in SG&A expenses excluding FoodMaster operations is the result of DTR hiring additional employees and consultants and increasing their travel to manage the dairy operations of FMI. However, these costs are offset by the management fees billed to FMI as discussed above under Revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the two months ended December 31, 1997 were $206,004 compared to $329,119 for the two months ended December 31, 1996. During the two months of 1996, FoodMaster operations comprised $260,859 of the $329,119 SG&A expenses. Therefore, the Company's other SG&A expenses in 1996 excluding the FoodMaster operations was $68,260. The $137,744 increase in SG&A expenses excluding FoodMaster operations is the result of that mentioned above. Discontinued Operations Effective December 31, 1995, DTR entered into an agreement to sell certain assets and the rights to its airport security equipment in the fSU to Gate Technologies, Inc., a United Kingdom company owned by a former DTR employee. DTR transferred assets, inventory, customer lists, promotional materials, and other items with a net book value on January 31, 1996 of $143,293. In exchange for these items, DTR received a cash payment of $45,000 to reimburse DTR for expenses related to this business during the first quarter of 1996 and a note receivable totaling $765,000 payable over 30 months. A portion of these payments is personally guaranteed by the former employee, and is collateralized by 16,430 shares of DTR's common stock owned by the former employee. Additional contingent payments may also be received based on future performance. DTR retained the right to pursue airport security management contracts. Due to the inherent risks associated with operating in the fSU, including credit risk, the gain on this sale has been deferred and will be recognized as payments are received. DTR received total payments of $200,000 during the year ended October 31, 1997. As a result, DTR recorded a gain on discontinued operations of $200,000 for the year ended October 31, 1997. This gain on the sale is presented as discontinued operations in the statements of operations. In August 1997, the Board of Directors approved a revision in the sale agreement that increased the balance due to DTR by $40,000 representing interest on the outstanding balance. The increase in the receivable balance was accounted for as an increase in deferred gain. In addition, the payment terms were revised to require two payments in 1998 with the final payment due on January 1, 1999. No payments were received during the year ended December 31, 1998 or during the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997. Due to the buyer's deliquency in payment and the limited success of the business that was sold, management reduced the receivable and the related deferred gain recorded on its balance sheet by $280,000 at December 31, 1998. The remaining receivable balance of $200,000 is partially offset by a current deferred gain of $181,707 at December 31, 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources Operating Activities DTR increased its cash used in operating activities to $181,069 during the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to cash used of $137,571 for the year ended October 31, 1997. The increase in cash used was primarily due to a reduction in operating income by approximately $525,000 offset by cash flows from reducing operating assets. DTR received $473,520 from operating activities in the final two months of 1997. This was achieved by receiving a net $207,781 from FMI in payment for DTR's management fees and increasing payables by $180,168. Investing Activities In the two months ended December 31, 1997, DTR's 100% owned subsidiary, SXD, Inc. used $500,000 of its cash to invest in an unsecured note receivable from an unaffiliated private company. This investment was returned in 1998 with approximately $199,000 in interest income. During the year ended December 31, 1998, SXD, Inc. loaned $600,000 to invest in an unsecured note receivable from another unaffiliated private company. SXD expects to receive this principal plus interest on its investment in the fourth quarter of 1999. DTR also purchased $21,945 in new software and equipment for its office in Minneapolis, MN in 1998. In addition, the Company received a $500,000 repayment on the note outstanding at December 31, 1997. During the year ended October 31, 1997, cash used in investing activities primarily related to purchases and sales of equipment by FoodMaster in the beginning of the year. Financing Activities In the first quarter of 1998, options to purchase 15,000 shares of DTR's Common Stock were exercised for a purchase price of $1.50 per share. There were no financing activities during the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997. During the year ended October 31, 1997, DTR's FoodMaster operations made principal payments of $8,900 on a $70,910 bank loan obtained in 1996. After this period, the FoodMaster cash flows were consolidated with FMI in accordance with the transfer discussed above. Year 2000 The Company has been addressing Year 2000 (Y2k) issues. Since the Company is not a direct manufacturer of products and since all of its assets are less than six years old, most of its exposure to the Y2k issue falls in the area of third parties. All of the Company's information technology systems are Y2k compliant, but the Company is still determining the effect on non- information technology systems. The Company plans to be Y2k compliant by October 1999. The Company does not believe that the costs related to the Y2k issue will be greater than $25,000 due to the reasons stated above. The Company may use these funds for an outside consultant to provide an evaluation of its entire system. The most risk that the Company faces in its operations is that of the failure of third party vendors to be ready for the Y2k. The most direct risk could be a failure on the part of telecommunication companies, which would impede the daily communication between the Company and its subsidiaries. Indirectly, the subsidiaries could experience a failure to receive timely shipments of supplies which would result in a loss of an indeterminable amount of revenues. The Company is currently developing its contingency plan for the aforementioned risks. It expects to have this plan fully created by October 1999. In addition, the Company is currently developing a contingency plan for FMI and its subsidiaries. Based on a preliminary evaluation, the effects on the manufacturing operations are not fully determinable. However, the manufacturing subsidiaries have working generators that can support the operations in the event of power failures and all subsidiary computer operations are expected to be Y2k compliant by November 1999. Adverse Foreign Economic and Currency Conditions Since August 1998, the countries of the fSU in which the subsidiaries of FMI operate have faced a series of adverse economic conditions. Uncertainties regarding the political, legal, tax or regulatory environment, including the potential for adverse and retroactive changes in any of these areas could significantly affect the Company and the carrying value of its investment in the FMI joint venture. The countries have seen a significant devaluation of their local currency against the US dollar, higher interest rates and reduced opportunities for financing. DTR is committed to working with FMI's subsidiaries to focus production on profitable products and to address working capital shortages as needed over the coming year. In July 1999, FMI sold 10% of its consolidated Kazakhstan operations for cash of $1.8 million and it converted $1.8 million of its loans to the Kazakhstan subsidiaries to equity so that its ownership would not be diluted. This cash infusion was used to pay DTR's management fees in 1999. Based on management's current projections for FMI and the receipt of the $6 million additional investment from API into FMI, the Company believes that the carrying value of its investment in FMI at December 31, 1998 is not permanently impaired and that DTR has sufficient working capital and liquidity to fund its current operations through the coming year. Management is continually looking for opportunities for growth. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - DEVELOPED TECHNOLOGY RESOURCE, INC. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Board of Directors and Shareholders DEVELOPED TECHNOLOGY RESOURCE, INC. Edina, Minnesota We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Developed Technology Resource, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two- month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We did not audit the 1998 financial statements of S.A. Fabrica de brinzeturi din Soroca, S.A. Fabrica de produse lactate din Hancesti, and FoodMaster Kyiv, three partially-owned subsidiaries of FoodMaster International L.L.C. (FMI), a joint venture of the Company which is accounted for by the equity method. The Company's equity interest in these three FMI subsidiaries' net assets of approximately $650,000 at December 31, 1998 and net loss of approximately $102,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 are included in the Company's accompanying financial statements. Each of the financial statements of FMI's three partially-owned subsidiaries were audited by other auditors whose reports dated April 30, 1999, April 30, 1999 and April 16, 1999, respectively, included explanatory paragraphs disclosing that such financial statements were prepared assuming that each of the three partially-owned subsidiaries would continue as going concerns despite suffering losses, having accumulated deficits or current liabilities which exceed current assets at December 31, 1998 combined with the uncertainty due to the Year 2000 issue and the current economic environment in Moldova and Ukraine, respectively, all of which raise substantial doubt about each of their ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements for each of the three partially-owned subsidiaries of FMI which do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties, have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such companies, is based solely on the reports of such other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. These 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 and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the Company's financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Developed Technology Resource, Inc. as of December 31, 1998 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements and in the reports of the other auditors as described above, there are significant uncertainties which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that might be necessary as a result of these uncertainties. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Minneapolis, Minnesota September 3, 1999

See accompanying notes to the financial statements. DEVELOPED TECHNOLOGY RESOURCE, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years Ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997 and Two-Month Transition Period Ended December 31, 1997 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business Developed Technology Resource, Inc. (DTR or the Company) invests in and manages dairy and distribution operations in the countries of the former Soviet Union (fSU) through FoodMaster International L.L.C. (FMI), its joint venture with Agribusiness Partners International L.P. (API). In addition to managing FMI, DTR sells packaging equipment and manages the operations of its 100% owned subsidiary, SXD, Inc. During 1998, SXD, Inc. distributed X-ray tubes under DTR's exclusive agreement with a Russian manufacturer, issued unsecured short-term loans, and held ownership interests in the coatings technology business of Phygen, Inc. and the cancer detection business of Armed which had no reportable business activity during 1998 or 1997. The x-ray tube distribution agreement expired in March 1999 and the company is phasing out this operation during 1999. Going Concern Considerations Since August 1998, the countries of the fSU, in which the subsidiaries of FMI operate, have faced a series of adverse economic conditions. Uncertainties regarding the political, legal, tax or regulatory environment, including the potential for adverse and retroactive changes in any of these areas could significantly affect the Company. The countries have seen a significant devaluation of their local currency against the US dollar, higher interest rates and reduced opportunities for financing. As a result of these situations, several of the subsidiaries have suffered significant losses in 1998 and carry an accumulated deficit at December 31, 1998. DTR is committed to working with FMI's subsidiaries to focus production on profitable products and to address working capital shortages as needed over the coming year. The year 2000 (Y2k) issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits rather than four to identify a year. Date sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date, resulting in errors when information using the Y2k date is processed. The effects of the Y2k issue may be experienced before, on, or after January 1, 2000 and if not addressed, the impact on operations and financial reporting may range from minor errors to significant systems failure which could affect an entity's ability to conduct normal business operations. It is not possible to be certain that all aspects of the Y2k issue affecting the Company, including those relating to the efforts of customers, suppliers, or other third parties, will be fully resolved. Due to the nature of the subsidiaries' equipment and relative compliance with Y2k in its computerized systems, no serious interruptions in production or financial processing are expected. The direct risks are those resulting from the general economic environment, and relationships with suppliers and customers. Change in Fiscal Year The Company changed its fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31 in order to correspond with the calendar year end of its subsidiaries and FMI joint ventures. As a result, the accompanying financial statements report the two-month transition period results from November 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 in addition to the years ended December 31, 1998 and October 31, 1997. Basis of Presentation From 1995 through February 1997, the financial statements include the operations of DTR and FoodMaster Corporation (FoodMaster), DTR's 50% owned subsidiary in Almaty, Kazakhstan. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. On March 3, 1997, DTR contributed its 50% ownership of FoodMaster to the FMI joint venture for a 40% ownership in FMI. Effective March 1997, DTR records its proportionate share of the net income or loss of FMI in the statements of operations as equity in earnings of FMI joint venture under the equity method of accounting. The excess of DTR's underlying equity in net assets of FMI over the carrying value of its investment ($2,873,726 at December 31, 1998, net of accumulated amortization) is being amortized to income over 15 years. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. Furniture and Equipment Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, primarily three to five years. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized upon shipment of products to customers and as services are provided to FMI under the management agreement. Net (Loss) Income per Common Share In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which was required to be adopted by DTR in 1998. This statement also required any prior periods to be restated. Net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Under the new standard for calculating basic net income (loss) per share, the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is eliminated. However, stock options and warrants are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share when the result is dilutive. Segment Reporting In June 1997, the FASB issued FAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This statement is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company evaluated this statement and determined that no additional disclosures about segments were necessary. The Company does not manage based on operating segments. 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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Financial Instruments FAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 1998. The respective carrying value of financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand. New Accounting Standards In June 1997, the FASB issued FAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income includes all changes in shareholders' equity except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. FAS No. 130 is not currently applicable for the Company because the Company did not have any items of other comprehensive income in any of the periods presented. In June 1998, the FASB issued FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement is effective for fiscal quarters of all years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company has not yet evaluated the full impact of adoption. 2.Ak-Bulak Option Effective August 1996, the Company obtained an option to purchase 80% of Ak-Bulak, an inactive company which owned the other 50% of the FoodMaster joint venture. To exercise the option, the Company agreed to pay certain pre-defined outstanding debts of Ak-Bulak and to make capital improvements to the dairy owned by FoodMaster. As of March 2, 1997, DTR had paid $171,774 in connection with the exercise of this option. On March 3, 1997, DTR contributed its 50% ownership in FoodMaster along with this option to the FMI joint venture. FMI repaid DTR for all but $14,045 of the costs paid through March 2, 1997 to exercise the option (See Note 3). 3.Investment in FoodMaster International L.L.C. (FMI) On March 3, 1997, DTR and API established the FMI joint venture to acquire and operate dairies in the fSU. For a 40% interest in FMI, DTR contributed its 50% ownership in FoodMaster, the Ak-Bulak option (See Note 2), and its opportunities for a future acquisition of a dairy in Moldova. Exercise of the Ak-Bulak option by FMI in March 1997 increased the ownership in FoodMaster to 90%. API agreed to contribute $6 million dollars which was paid to FMI between March 1997 and June 1998 to further develop FMI's existing and future dairy operations in the fSU for a 60% interest in FMI. On September 11, 1998, DTR and API amended the FMI joint venture agreement to allow API to contribute up to an additional $6 million dollars for an additional 10% ownership. This additional contribution was paid to FMI between September 1998 and April 1999. As of December 31, 1998, API owned 67% and DTR owned 33% of FMI based on API's additional investment of $3.8 million. API contributed the remaining $2.2 million of the additional investment by April 1999 which reduced DTR's ownership to 30%. The investment proceeds received by FMI were used to fund expansion of existing facilities and to acquire four additional subsidiaries. DTR has a right to earn a greater ownership interest in FMI by achieving certain defined performance targets based on returns to API. Effective March 1997, DTR records its proportionate share (40% from March 1997 to September 1998 and 33% thereafter) of the net loss or income of FMI in the statement of operations as equity in (loss) earnings of FMI joint venture under the equity method of accounting. DTR also entered into a management agreement on March 3, 1997 with FMI, whereby DTR manages the day to day operations of FMI and the dairy operations owned by FMI, and pursues future dairy acquisitions for FMI for a management fee. The management fee is a direct expense reimbursement, with no profit margin, in accordance with a pre-approved budget between DTR and FMI. Thus, management fees will increase or decrease as DTR's expenses incurred for management activities increase or decrease, with no effect on income because there is no profit margin provided for in the agreement. There is no stated contractual termination date in this agreement. The Company recorded management fee revenue of $1,281,322, $190,548 and $802,492 for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two months ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively, in accordance with its management agreement with FMI. Summarized financial information from the audited financial statements of FMI accounted for on the equity method is as follows: December 31, 1998 Current assets $5,991,784 Total assets 17,289,249 Current liabilities 4,212,351 Noncurrent liabilities 1,363,486 Joint-venture equity 11,713,412 DTR's 33% share of FMI 's equity 3,865,426 DTR's negative goodwill (2,873,727) DTR's carrying value of FMI's equity 991,699

4.Note Receivable On December 3, 1998, SXD made a loan and received a $600,000, unsecured, convertible promissory note with an unrelated third party. All principal together with accrued interest of 8% per annum was due and payable on March 15, 1999. This note has been extended to November 30, 1999 to allow the debtor additional time to raise funds and repay the note. 5.Furniture and Equipment Furniture and equipment are summarized as follows: Estimated Useful Life Software 5 years $ 10,512 Furniture & equipment 5 years 120,493 Leasehold improvements 5 years 4,982 135,987 Less accumulated depreciation 92,193 Furniture and equipment, net $ 43,794 6.Discontinued Operations Effective December 31, 1995, DTR entered into an agreement to sell certain assets and the rights to its airport security equipment in the fSU to Gate Technology, a United Kingdom company owned by a former DTR employee. DTR transferred assets, inventory, customer lists, promotional materials, and other items with a net book value on January 31, 1996 of $143,293. In exchange for these items, DTR received a cash payment of $45,000 to reimburse DTR for expenses related to this business during the first quarter of 1996 and a note receivable totaling $765,000 payable over 30 months. A portion of these payments is personally guaranteed by the former employee, and is collateralized by his ownership of 16,430 shares of DTR's common stock. Additional contingent payments may also be received based on future performance. DTR retained the right to pursue airport security management contracts. Due to the inherent risks associated with operating in the fSU, including credit risk, the gain on this sale has been deferred and will be recognized as payments are received. DTR received total payments of $200,000 during the year ended October 31, 1997. As a result, DTR recorded a gain on discontinued operations of $200,000 for the year ended October 31, 1997. This gain on the sale is presented as discontinued operations in the statements of operations. In August 1997, the Board of Directors approved a revision in the sale agreement that increased the balance due to DTR by $40,000 representing interest on the outstanding balance. The increase in the receivable balance was accounted for as an increase in deferred gain. In addition, the payment terms were revised to require two payments in 1998 with the final payment due on January 1, 1999. No payments were received subsequent to January 1, 1999, during the year ended December 31, 1998 or during the two- month transition period ended December 31, 1997. Due to the buyer's deliquency in payment and the limited success of the business that was sold, management reduced the receivable and the related deferred gain recorded on its balance sheet by $280,000 at December 31, 1998. The remaining balance of $200,000 is still recorded as a receivable and is offset by a $181,707 deferred gain at December 31, 1998. 7.Commitments & Contingencies Leases The Company leases its office facilities under a five-year operating lease that expires on April 30, 2002. The following schedule sets forth the future minimum rental payments required under the operating lease: Year Ending Operating December 31, Leases 1999 18,919 2000 19,423 2001 19,928 2002 10,090 $ 86,774 Rent expense was $66,911, $8,059, and $25,500 for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively. Rent expense exceeds the amount shown in the above operating lease commitments due to apartment rentals for ex-pat employees on a month-to-month basis. These rental fees are charged back to FMI through the management fee each month. 8.Stock Options and Warrants Under the Company's 1992 Stock Option Plan (the Plan), the Board of Directors may grant qualified or nonqualified options for up to 66,667 shares of common stock to employees and non- employees. Options granted to employees generally vest over a five year period. Certain options granted to employees contain provisions whereby vesting is accelerated in the event the employee is terminated without cause as defined in the option agreements. Options granted to non-employees vest equally over one year after the date of grant and are exercisable for ten years from the date of grant. Effective September 30, 1996, the Plan was amended to increase the shares available for granting to 600,000 shares. On November 6, 1997, the Board of Directors adopted the 1997 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan, superseding the 1993 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan. Under the terms of this plan, the Company reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for issuance to outside directors as compensation for their services as board members. In exchange for the surrender of all stock options previously granted to the outside directors, the Board granted stock options under the new plan for 15,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share to the current outside directors. Options for the purchase of shares are issued to the directors each year upon their election at the annual shareholders meeting and vest quarterly throughout the year. The number of options granted each year is determined by the Board of Directors and the option price will be set as the average between the bid and ask prices of the Company's Common Stock on the date of issuance. The Company applies APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for the above employee plans. Under the provisions of APB Opinion 25, if options are granted or extended at exercise prices less than fair market value, compensation expense is recorded for the difference between the grant price and the fair market value at the date of the grant. FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, requires the Company to provide pro- forma information regarding net income and per share amounts as if compensation cost for the Company's stock options had been determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed by FAS No. 123. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used for options issued during the periods: Two Months Year Ended Ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, October 31, 1998 1997 1997 Dividend Yield None None None Volatility 105.5 - 115.3% 119.4 - 132.8% 102.6 - 120.8% Risk Free Interest Rate 5.8% - 5.9% 5.6% - 5.7% 6% Expected Lives in Months 30 - 120 3 - 30 18 - 120 Had compensation costs been determined based on the fair value of options at their grant dates in accordance with FAS No. 123, the Company would have shown the following effect: Decrease in Net Income $ 122,000 $ 33,150 $ 98,567 Decrease in EPS Basic 0.15 0.04 0.12 Decrease in EPS Diluted 0.10 0.03 0.11 The following table summarizes the information about the Company's warrant and stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1997:

FAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities were as follows: December 31, 1998 Deferred tax asset $1,060,000 Deferred tax liabilities (6,500) Valuation allowance (1,053,500) -- Deferred income tax assets and liabilities consist primarily of net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards and the allowance for doubtful accounts, and differences between the financial and tax basis of furniture and equipment, respectively. At December 31, 1998, the Company had NOL carryforwards of approximately $2,932,000 for income tax purposes. The NOL carryforwards expire in years 2007 through 2011 if not previously utilized. Utilization of the available NOL carryforward may be limited due to future significant changes in ownership under Internal Revenue Codes Section 382. These potential future tax benefits are not recognized in the financial statements since realization is not reasonably assured. The Company intends to permanently reinvest the earnings of FMI. Therefore, no U.S. deferred income taxes are provided on these earnings. 11.Earnings Per Share In 1998, the Company adopted FAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Earnings per share (EPS) amounts presented for 1997 have been restated for the adoption of FAS No. 128. The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.
Two Months Year Ended Ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, October 31, 1998 1997 1997 Basic Earnings Per Common Share: Income from continuing operations $ (186,498) $ 49,763 $ 510,416 Gain from discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $ 200,000 Net income $ (186,498) $ 49,763 $ 710,416 Average shares outstanding 805,615 790,820 795,969 Basic EPS on continuing operations $ (0.23) $ 0.06 $ 0.64 Basic EPS on discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $ 0.25 Basic EPS on net income $ (0.23) $ 0.06 $ 0.89 Diluted Earnings Per Common Share: Income from continuing operations $ (186,498) $ 49,763 $ 510,416 Gain from discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $ 200,000 Net income $ (186,498) $ 49,763 $ 710,416 Average shares outstanding 805,615 790,820 795,969 Shares issued from the assumed exercise of stock options -- 615,000 588,334 Shares assumed to be repurchased with proceeds from exercise -- (332,055) (509,772) Total 805,615 1,073,765 874,531 Diluted EPS on continuing operations $ (0.23) $ 0.05 $ 0.58 Diluted EPS on discontinued operations $ .-- $ .-- $ 0.23 Diluted EPS on net income $ (0.23) $ 0.05 $ 0.81
The assumed exercise of common stock equivalents (658,333 shares) have not been included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the year ended December 31, 1998 as their effect would be antidilutive. 12.Related Party Transactions During 1998, DTR sold a packaging machine and inventory items to FMI for $118,130 and $16,294, respectively. The cost of these items were $82,592 and $17,907 respectively. During the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997, DTR sold one packaging machine to FMI for $139,822 with a cost of $106,802. There were no related party transactions in the year ended October 31, 1997. 13.Economic Dependence For the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, the Company had two customers which comprised 100% of its x-ray tube sales of $303,900, $67,200 and $264,030, respectively. In addition, the Company had one supplier for these x-ray tubes. Purchases from this supplier totaled $260,950, $57,600 and $228,445 for the year ended December 31, 1998, the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended October 31, 1997, respectively. Sales to related parties comprised 30.5% at $134,424 and 40.3% at $139,822 of total sales for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997, respectively. There were no sales to related parties during the year ended October 31, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1998 and the two-month transition period ended December 31, 1997, the Company had two non-related customers which comprised 68.9% and 52.8% of total sales. During the year ended October 31, 1997, there was only one non-related customer who accounted for total sales of greater than 10% at 12.9%. Sales to these non-related parties totaled $303,900, $183,022 and $318,125 during these respective periods. 14.Supplemental Disclosures of Cash Flow Information Non-cash operating and investing activities: For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company reduced the deferred gain and corresponding receivable from the sale of discontinued operations by $280,000 as discussed in Note 6. In September 1998, API began its purchase of an additional 10% of FMI for $6 million dollars as discussed in Note 3. As a result, DTR recorded a $614,675 increase in the value of its investment for the cash contributed by API to FMI through December 31, 1998 in order to recognize the unrealized gain from the reduction in its ownership interest in FMI. The API capital contribution to FMI also increased DTR's paid-in- capital in December 1998. For the year ended October 31, 1997, the Company contributed $626,917 in net assets of its FoodMaster joint venture to FoodMaster International L.L.C. (FMI) for its 40% interest as discussed in Note 3. In addition, the Company redeemed 48,190 shares of common stock in exchange for the satisfaction of a $29,035 account receivable as discussed in Note 9. Finally, the Company increased the deferred gain and a corresponding receivable from the sale of discontinued operations by $40,000 for additional interest due to DTR as discussed in Note 6. The non-cash effects of these transactions have been removed from the appropriate categories in the operating and investing section of the Company's Statements of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. Two Months Year Ended Ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, October 31, Supplemental cash flow information: 1998 1997 1997 Cash paid for: Interest $ 2,110 $ -- $ -- 15.

In April 1999, API completed its additional $6 million contribution to the FMI joint venture bringing DTR's ownership in FMI to 30%. In July 1999, FMI sold 10% of its consolidated Kazakhstan operations for cash of $1.8 million and it converted $1.8 million of its loans to the Kazakhstan subsidiaries to equity so that its ownership would not be diluted. This cash infusion was used to pay DTR's management fees in 1999. ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE On December 23, 1997, Developed Technology Resource, Inc. dismissed Lurie, Besikof, Lapidus & Co., LLP, the principal accountant previously engaged to audit the registrant's financial statements for the year ended October 31, 1996, as its independent accountant.
