PART I
MATERIAL TECHNOLOGY, INC.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Material Technologies, Inc. ("Matech"), a development stage company, successor
on July 31, 1997, to Material Technology, Inc.'s ("Matech 1") business, owns
that certain device known as the Fatigue Fuse, which requires additional testing
to more precisely identify appropriate commercial uses prior to manufacturing
and marketing. Matech is also the exclusive licensee of the Electrochemical
Fatigue Sensor, which requires substantial additional development. These
technologies are intended to indicate the level of fatigue of certain metal
structures including aircraft, bridges, cranes, ships, and other structures. No
commercial application of Matech's products hasbeen arranged to date and it will
be Matech's aim to develop a market for the Fatigue Fuse once testing is
completed and for the Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor once it has been fully
developed.
The Company is seeking to raise funds from numerous sources, including various
state and federal governmental agencies and/or private or public offerings of
securities. At this time, however, the Company has no firm agreements other than
a teaming agreement with Southwest Research Institute ("SWRI") related tothe Air
Force contract signed on February 25,1997. In August 1996, Matech entered into a
teaming agreement with SWRI, San Antonio, Texas (a non-profit research facility)
and the University of Pennsylvania. On February 25, 1997 the team was awarded a
$2.5 million Phase I contract to "determine the feasibility of the EFS to
improve the United States Air Force capability to perform durability
assessments of military aircraft, including both air frames and engines through
the application of the EFS to specific military aircraft alloys." Matech's share
of this award is approximately $550,000. Sufficient interest has been generated
by the military and the Pentagon and Congress has appropriated an additional
$5,000,000 for further development related to the EFS technology. The
contracting process for the additional funding has begun. The Company
anticipates that process will take two to three months from the date of this
filing.
Management anticipates marketing the Fatigue Fuse separately at first. If the
Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor is successfully developed, the two products will
complement each other. Matech is aware of several manufacturers capable of
producing the Fatigue Fuse at a reasonable cost. No assurance can be given,
however, that these devices will be successfully completed, that they can be
commercially produced, that they will perform to Management's expectations, or
that commercial markets will be successfully developed. Moreover, there may be
significant competition for the fatigue Fuse if and when it is marketed.
DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES
The development and application sequence for the Fatigue Fuse and
Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor consists of Basic Research, Exploratory
Development, Advanced Development, Prototype Evaluation, Application
Demonstration, and Commercial Sales and Service. The Fatigue Fuse came first and
is furthest along the path, beginning with the Basic Research by the inventor,
Professor Maurice Brull of the University of Pennsylvania. Matech conducted the
Advanced Development, including variations of the adhesive bonding process, and
fabrication of a laboratory grade recorder for the separation events which
constitute proper functioning of the Fatigue Fuse. The next step, Prototype
Applications, is almost complete, encompassing empirical tailoring of Fuse
parameters to fit the actual spectrum loading expected in specific applications.
The associated tests include both coupon specimens and full scale structural
tests with attached Fuses. A prototype of a flight qualifiable operational
separation event recorder was designed, fabricated, and successfully
demonstrated. The next tasks will be to prepare a mathematical analysis for more
efficient selection of Fuse parameters and to conduct a comprehensive test
program to prove the ability of the Fatigue Fuse to accurately indicate fatigue
damage when subjected to realistically large variations in spectrum loading. The
final tasks prior to marketing will be an even larger group of demonstration
tests.
The Fatigue Fuse is in its final stages of testing and development. To
beginmarketing the Fatigue Fuse, will take from 6 to 12 months and cost
approximately $600,000, including technical and beta testing and final
development. Iftesting, development, and marketing are successful, management
estimates Matechshould begin receiving revenue from the sale of the Fatigue Fuse
within a yearof receiving the $600,000. Management cannot estimate the amount
of revenuethat may be realized.
To date, certain organizations have included Matech's Fatigue Fuse in test
programs. Already completed are tests for welded steel civil bridge members. In
1996, Westland Helicopter, a British firm, tested the Fatigue Fuse on
Helicopters. That test was successful in that the legs of the fuses failed in
sequence as predicted. British Aerospace is conducting a full scale, 3 year test
of the Fatigue Fuse on Grumman T-38 training aircraft. Matech has also received
commercial inquires on the availability of fatigue Fuses for windmills, marine
cranes, and refinery pressure vessels.
DESCRIPTION OF TECHNOLOGIES
The Fatigue Fuse
The Fatigue Fuse was designed to be affixed to a structure to give warnings as
preselected portions of the fatigue life have been used up (i.e., how far to
failure the object has progressed).It will give warnings against a condition of
widespread generalized cracking due to fatigue.
The Fatigue Fuse is a thin piece of metal similar to the material being
monitored. It consists of a series of parallel metal strips connected to a
common base, much as fingers are attached to a hand. Each of the "fingers" has a
different geometric pattern called "notches" defining its boundaries. By
application of the laws of physics in determining the geometric contour of each
of the notches, the fatigue life of each of the fingers should be finite and
predictable. When the fatigue life of a given finger (or Fuse) is reached, the
fuse breaks. By implementing different geometry of each finger in the array,
different increments of fatigue life become observable. Typically, notches will
be designed to facilitate the observation of increments of fatigue life of 10%
to 20%. By mechanically attaching or bonding these devices to different areas of
the structural member of concern, the Fuse undergoes the same fatigue history as
the structural member. Therefore, breakage of a Fuse will indicate that an
increment of fatigue life has been reached for the structural member.
Fatigue results from a metal object being subjected to repeated cyclic strain.
In a commercial context this strain and concomitant stress comes about as a
result of a large number of cycles of loading and unloading. Sudden fracture can
result. Fatigue damage and the resultant compromise of the stability and
integrity on the member experiencing fatigue can present the potential for
structural failure and extreme danger. Such objects as bridges and the wings of
airplanes are subject to fatigue and it is obvious that the sudden fracture of
such an object would have disastrous results. It is presently impossible, under
any generally acceptable theory of fatigue phenomena, to predict by analysis
alone when the limit is reached and when a fracture may take place. Further, in
normal usage, the damage occurs cumulatively, at microscopic levels and can only
be detected in the early stages at a time when dire results can be avoided by
examination of the microscopic structure.
This difficulty has caused designers of objects and structures subject to
fatigue to be extremely conservative by designing structures in a manner which
maintains the stresses presented in critical areas of a structure at a level
well below the know endurance limits of the material employed. In many instances
this has resulted in extreme expense. In spite of this "overdesigning",
catastrophic fatigue failures still occur. Although tests of the Fatigue Fuse
have been performed in independent laboratories and the Fuse has been shown to
perform as designed and as expected, Management has determined that substantial
additional testing is necessary to ensure that it will be possible to calibrate
various types of loading spectra, i.e., the range and types of stresses which a
metal object experiences during usage. Management estimates that it will
require an outlay of approximately $350,000 to accomplish this additional
testing. If this money were available, Management estimates that such additional
testing could be accomplished in 6 to 12 months.
Management believes that the Fatigue Fuse will be of value in monitoring
aircraft, ships, bridges, conveyor systems, mining equipment, cranes, etc. No
special training will be needed to qualify individuals to report any broken
segments of the Fatigue Fuse to the appropriate engineering authority for
necessary action. The success of the device is contingent upon Matech's
successful development and marketing of the Fatigue Fuse, and no assurance can
be given that Matech will be able to overcome the obstacles relating to
introducing a new product to the market. To determine its ability to produce and
market the Fatigue Fuse, Matech needs substantial additional capital and no
assurance can be given that needed capital will be available.
Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor ("EFS")
In August, 1993, Tensiodyne, a predecessor of Matech 1, entered into two
agreements, a license and a development agreement, with the University of
Pennsylvania regarding a new invention designed to measure electrochemically the
status of fatigue of a structure without knowing the structure's past loading
history. Pursuant to the license agreement, 12,500 shares of Tensiodyne's common
stock were issued, a 5% royalty on sales of this product was granted, and under
the development agreement Tensiodyne undertook to pay $11,112 per month for a
total of 18 months, for a total payment of $200,000. As of this date, no
payments have been made on this obligation. On December 17, 1997, the company
and the University modified the terms of the licensing agreement and related
obligation. The terms of the modified agreements include an increase in the
University's royalty to 7% of the sale of related products, the issuance of
additional shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock to equal 5% of the
outstanding stock of the Company as of December 17, 1997, and to pay to the
University 30% of any amounts raised by the Company in excess of $150,000
(excluding amounts received on government grants or contracts) up to $200,000
plus interest at 1 (r) % per month from June 30, 1997.
The EFS is a high precision instrument consisting of (a) a cell which can be
attached to a structure to measure electrical current and (b) software to
interpret the current measurements. The cell is an enclosure which contains a
fluid or gel which conducts electricity and two metal electrodes connected to
external wires leading to a battery and the current measuring instrument. The
sensor is temporarily attached to a structural member, then the member is
subjected to multiple loads while the instrument records the current. A computer
analyzes the current record to determine the degree of fatigue damage present at
the location of the sensor in the structure. Then the sensor is removed.
Preliminary tests at the University of Pennsylvania on different metals
indicates that various stages of fatigue in each metal produce a current
specifically associated with each stage. For example, if the specific metal has
experienced 20% of its fatigue life, the current produced with the EFS
technology has certain characteristics, i.e. a signature. If the metal has
experienced 40% of its fatigue life, the current has a different but distinct
signature associated with that amount of fatigue.
The EFS is in the initial stage of research. No assurance can be given that it
can be successfully developed or that, if successfully developed, it can be
produced at a commercially acceptable price, and that even if these two
conditions are met, that there will be a market for the EFS.
PATENTS
Matech is the assignee of four patents originally issued to Tensiodyne
Corporation, a predecessor of Matech. The first was issued on May 27, 1986, and
expires on May 27, 2003. It is entitled "Device for Monitoring Fatigue Life" and
bears United States Patent Office Numbers 4,590,804. The second patent, entitled
"Method of Making a Device for Monitoring Fatigue Life" was issued on February
3, 1987 and expires February 3, 2004, United States Patent Office Number
4,639,997. The third patent, entitled "Metal Fatigue Detector" was issued on
August 24, 1993 and expires on August 24, 2010, United States Patent Number
5,237,875. The fourth patent, entitled "Device for Monitoring the Fatigue Life
of a Structural Member and a Method of Making Same," was issued on June 14, 1994
and expires on June 14, 2011, United States Patent Number 5,319,982.
STRATEGIC ALLIANCE WITH STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY MONITORING SYSTEMS
The Company has entered into a strategic alliance with Structural Integrity
Monitoring Systems ('SIMS') of Willimantic, Connecticut. The company and SIMS
are in the final stages of planning to obtain government funding to develop and
demonstrate a bridge monitoring systems. The Company and SIMS have formed a
Delaware corporation, Millennium Bridge Monitoring, Inc. The Company and SIMS
will each own 50% of Milllennium Bridge and will each license its technology to
that Company. Millennium Bridge will then apply for federal government funds
for development and a demonstration project. As this plan is in its early
stages, the Company can
DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF PRODUCT
Provided there are funds to support such activities, as to which no assurance
can be given, Matech intends to exhibit the Fatigue Fuse and the Electrochemical
Fatigue Sensor at various aerospace trade shows and will also market its
products directly to end users, including aircraft manufacturing and aircraft
maintenance companies, manufactures and operators of cranes, certain state
regulatory agencies charged with overseeing maintenance of bridges, and
companies engaged in manufacturing and maintaining large ships and tankers, and
to the military. Although management intends to undertake marketing, dependent
on the availability of funds, within and with out the United States, no
assurance can be given that any such marketing activities will be implemented.
Competition
Matech's Products
1. The Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor is intended to provide a fatigue
measurement which cannot now be obtained from any other instrument, namely, an
assessment of the extent of fatigue damage before cracks have grown to a size
detectable by nondestructive inspection, in a structure which has not previously
been instrumented or monitored to record the loads or strains experienced in
service.
2. The Fatigue Fuse provides a simple low-tech way to assess and predict fatigue
damage, which otherwise requires complex instrumentation, precision data
recording, and sophisticated analytical programs.
Competitor's Products
Other technologies exist which indicate fatigue damage. Single cracks larger
than a minimum size can be found by nondestructive inspection methods such as
dye penetrant, radiography, eddy current, acoustic emission, and ultrasonics.
Track of load and strain history, for subsequent estimation of fatigue damage by
computer processing, is possible with recording instruments such as stain gauges
and counting accelerometers. These methods have been used for up to 40 years and
also offer the advantage that they have been accepted in the market, whereas
Matech's products will remain largely unproven for some currently indeterminable
period. Companies marketing these alternate technologies include Magnaflux
Corporation, Kraut-Kermer-Branson, Dunegan-Endevco, and MicroMeasurements. These
companies have more substantial assets, greater experience, and more resources
than Matech, including but not limited to, established distribution channels and
an established computer base. The familiarity and loyalty to these technologies
may be difficult to dislodge. Because Matech is still in its development stage,
it is unable to predict whether its technologies will be successfully developed
and commercially attractive in potential markets.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
As of April 10, 1997, the Company entered into a lease at 11661 San Vincente
Boulevard, Suite 707, Los Angeles, California, 90049, which has a term of 24
months beginning June 1, 1997. The space consists of 830 square feet and will be
adequate for the Company's current and foreseeable needs. The total rent is
$40,464.00 payable at $1,868.00 per month.
Matech owns a remote monitoring system and certain manufacturing equipment which
is presently leased to the University of Pennsylvania (Laboratory for Research
on the Structure of Matter) for instructional and testing purposes. In
consideration for leasing this equipment, the University has agreed to perform
1,200 hours of testing on materials to be used in connection with the Fatigue
Fuse. The first five year term of this lease will expire on March 31,1998.
Lessee has the right to borrow the equipment for a further five year period.
Upon the expiration of the second five year period, the University has the right
to purchase the equipment at its then fair market value.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On August 26, 1997, the Company and its President, Robert M. Bernstein filed a
complaint in the Superior Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Suffolk
Co., Material Technologies, Inc. and Robert M. Bernstein v. Sherman Baker et
al., No. 97-4590B. The complaint seeks a declaratory judgment that, under a 1994
agreement with a group of investors known as the Baker Group, that group is not
entitled to receive shares of the Company without payment of consideration.
Under the 1994 agreement, Robert M. Bernstein is required to provide the Baker
Group with the opportunity to purchase 35% of any and all shares that the
Company issues to him.
On October 22, 1997, the Baker Group defendants filed an answer and
counterclaims against Robert M. Bernstein only. The Baker Group also seeks a
declaratory judgment and damages against Mr. Bernstein for breach of contract
and for inducing the group to enter into an exchange agreement in connection
with the SecurFone transaction that was closed on July 31, 1997. As a result of
the Baker Group's claims against Mr. Bernstein and in order to close the
SecurFone transaction, Mr. Bernstein placed 150,000 of his SecurFone shares in
escrow subject to a resolution of the Baker Group's claims and SecurFone has
withheld payment of $50,000 to the Company until those claims are resolved. The
Company's failure to receive that $50,000 has had an adverse impact on the
Companies operating capital. The parties are in the midst of settlement
discussions.
On January 13, 1998 Linda Biron, an individual, served a Complaint on Robert M.
Bernstein, the Company's President, claiming breach of a contract between Ms.
Biron and Mr. Bernstein. Ms. Biron alleges that she had an agreement with Mr.
Bernstein that she would be paid $100,000 if the Company received government
funding as a result of her efforts in introducing Mr. Bernstein to certain
individuals, that she made the introductions, and that such funding was received
but she was not paid the $100,000. Matech is not a party to the suit but the
Company is paying for Mr. Bernstein's defense in the action. Mr. Bernstein
denies the material allegations of the Complaint. In management's opinion the
allegations are spurious as there was no enforceable contract between Ms. Biron
and Mr. Bernstein and Ms. Biron's introductions were not a cause of the funding
the Company received.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
On July 31, 1997, Robert M. Bernstein, as the holder of 2,426,130 shares of
Class A Common Stock in Matech 1 and 60,000 shares of Class B Common Stock in
Matech 1 with 200 votes per share, Joel Freedman as the holder of 113,481 shares
of Class A Common Stock in Matech 1, and John Goodman as the holder of 58,000
shares of Class A Common Stock in Matech 1 authorized the transfer of all Matech
1's assets and liabilities to the Company (Matech 2) in exchange for 5,560,000
shares of the Company's (Matech 2) common stock and the distribution of
5,000,000 of those shares to the Matech 1's shareholders under an S-1
Registration Statement which became effective on July 31, 1997, leaving Matech 1
with 560,000 shares of Matech 2. Matech 1's shareholders received a 14C
Information Statement prior to the vote. These shareholders also (a) authorized
Matech 1 to reverse split its stock one for ten (1 for 10) reducing Matech 1's
outstanding shares from 5 million to 500,000, (b) authorized the closing of the
Stock Purchase agreement among Montpilier Holdings, Inc., SecurFone America,
Inc., Matech 1, and Robert M. Bernstein, (c) the issuance of 4,500,000 of Matech
1's Class A Common Stock in exchange for all the stock of SecurFone America,
Inc., and (d) that Matech 1's name be changed to SecurFone America, Inc.
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
On July 31,1997, Matech 2's S-1 registration became effective for distribution
of 707,911 shares of Class A Common Stock to 408 shareholders of Material
Technology, Inc. as of July 31, 1997.
The Company's Class A Common Shares were then quoted on the NASDAQ Bulletin
Board. Its trading symbol is MTEY.
On November 3, 1997, the Board authorized the Corporation to issue 100,000shares
of Class A Common Stock to Miles Wilson for his valuable consultingservices.
On November 21, 1997, the Board authorized the Corporation to issue
100,000shares of Class A Common Stock to Alex Adelson for his valuable
consultingservices.
From July 31 through December 31, 1997, Matech's Class A Common Stock was quoted
between a low bid of $.2812 per share and a high bid of $2.50 per share on the
NASDAQ Bulletin Board. Such over-the-counter quotations reflect inter-dealer
prices, without retail markup, markdown or commission and may not necessarily
represent actual transactions. The following chart contains the high and low bid
prices per share in the last two calendar quarters of 1997.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of results of operations, capital resources, and
liquidity pertains to the consolidated activities of Material Technology, Inc.,
("Matech 1") for 1996 and of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Since July 31, 1997, the Company has been successor to all of the assets and
operations of Matech 1.
Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997
Revenues
Neither Matech 1 nor the Company generated any significant revenue in 1996, or
1995. In 1997, the Company received $336,410 under its contract with Southwest
Research Institute ("SWRI"). In addition, the Company received $70,000 to
reimburse expenses for the SecurFone transaction and is due another $50,000
which is being retained by SecurFone until the claims of the Baker Group are
resolved. (See, "Legal Proceedings").
COSTS AND EXPENSES
General and Administrative costs were $435,222 for 1997, $472,486 for 1996, and
$188,745 for 1995. The major costs in 1997 were legal costs of $166,102 incurred
in contracting for government funds for research and development of the EFS
technology and effecting the SecurFone transaction, officers' salaries of
$90,417, consulting fees of $111,013, filing and public relations costs of
$31,917 primarily for the Company's filings with the SEC relating to the
SecurFone transaction, employee expenses of $27,286, travel expenses of $20,744,
and rent of $28,136.88.
The major costs in 1996 were officers' salaries of $200,000, professional fees
of $111,080, office related expenses of $45,136, travel expenses of $21,902,
rent of $16,742 and consulting fees totaling $34,631. The primary increase in
these expenses from 1995 resulted from the Board approving compensation of
$200,000 to Robert M. Bernstein for his successful negotiation of the teaming
agreement with SWRI and the University of Pennsylvania which resulted in the
United States Air Force awarding SWRI a $2,500,000 contract in February 1997 to
conduct research on the Company's EFS technology.
The major costs incurred during 1995 were professional fees of $33,206, the
charge-off of offering costs of $31,480, office related expenses of $19,751,
travel cost of $28,298, rent of $28,514, interest of $10,817, and consulting
fees of $15,362.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's accountant has opined that the Company's financial condition
raises substantial doubt concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. As a result of the Company's subcontract with SWRI related to its
contract with the U.S. Air Force which is providing $2.5 million for research on
the EFS technology and the possibility of additional government funding in
addition to that contract, it appears that the Company will have sufficient
funds to continue operating at least through 1998.
As reflected in the numbers below, over the past three years, to continue
seeking capital and to maintain its patents, the Company was totally dependent
on the willingness of the Company's President, Mr. Bernstein, and long time
investors in the Company to loan the Company money or purchase additional
securities from the Company. Over the next year, the Company expects to receive
additional funds from a subcontract with SWRI relating to its research contract
that the United States Air Force awarded to SWRI on February 25, 1997 plus an
extension of that contract. These funds, however, are not guaranteed. In
addition, once the Baker law suit is resolved, the Company expects to receive an
additional $50,000 from SecurFone America, Inc. under the Stock Purchase
Agreement which will provide the Company additional working capital. These
funds, however, are only a beginning, the Company estimates substantial
additional funds will have to be raised to complete research and development and
bring its products to market. Although, Mr. Bernstein intends to continue to
loan the Company funds as required to seek additional financing, he is under no
obligation to do so. The Company does not expect to receive any additional
material financing from its other long time investors.
Any prediction of the likelihood or timing of obtaining the required funding
would be highly speculative. The Company's ability to obtain such financing may
depend on the results of the research contract with SWRI which will not be

Description of Capital Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 11,000,000 shares of stock. Each of the
11,000,000 shares of stock has a par value of $.001. Of the Shares authorized,
10,000,000 are Class A Common Shares; 100,000 are Class B Common shares; and
900,000 are Preferred shares.
Holders of the Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share of common
stock held.
Holders of the Class B Common stock are entitled to 200 votes for each share of
Class B Common held but are not entitled to dividends by reason of their holding
shares of Class B Common stock; nor are they entitled to participate in any
proceeds in the event of a liquidation of the Company.
The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides that the designation of
powers, preferences and rights, including voting rights, if any, qualifications,
limitations or restrictions on Preferred Stock is to be fixed by resolution or
resolutions of the Board of Directors.
On April 30, 1997, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware a Certificate of Designation designating 350,000 of the 900,000
preferred shares as Class A Preferred convertible stock. Under the Certificate
of Designation, 350,000 shares of preferred stock were designated Class A
Convertible Preferred Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Class A Preferred").
Class A preferred has a liquidation preference. In the event of liquidation,
holders of Class A Preferred have the right to receive $.72 for Each Share of
Class A Preferred held; before any payment is made or any assets are distributed
to holders of Common Stock, or any other stock of any other series or class
ranking junior to these shares. In the event of liquidation, holders of Class A
Preferred are not entitled to payment beyond $.72 per share. These provisions
may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control.
Each share of Class A Preferred is convertible into common stock at the
discretion of the holder, at the rate of one share of Class A Preferred for each
.72 share of common stock. Under the Certification of Designation, Matech is not
permitted to issue stock which is senior to or pari passu with Class A Preferred
without prior consent of a majority of the outstanding Class A Preferred shares.
Adjustment of the number of Class A Preferred outstanding is provided for in the
event of any reclassification of outstanding securities or of the class of
securities which are issuable upon conversion of shares and in the event of any
reorganization of Matech which results in any reclassification or change in the
number of shares outstanding. Similarly, in the event of any such change, the
conversion price is subject to adjustment to reflect such change. If at any time
while shares of Class A Preferred are outstanding a stock dividend on the Common
Stock is issued, the conversion price will be adjusted to prevent any dilution
of the holders' of Class A Preferred right of conversion. If (a) there is a
reclassification or change in Matech's Common Stock to which the Class A is
convertible other than stock splits or other decrease or increase in the number
of shares outstanding, (b) Matech consolidates or merges with another
corporation, or (c) Matech sells or transfers substantially all of its assets,
then the Class A preferred shareholders are entitled to the same consideration
as they would have been entitled to if their shares had been converted prior to
the reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. This
provision may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in
control. Voting rights and the right to receive dividends inherent in Class A
Preferred are similar to those rights which inure to the Common Stock.
On April 30 1997, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation bringing into
existence a Class B Preferred Stock. Class B Preferred Stock is junior and
subordinate to Class A Convertible Preferred Stock. Fifteen (15) shares of Class
B Preferred Stock were authorized from the 9,650,000 undesignated preferred
shares in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization. Fifteen (15)
shares have been issued to Tensiodyne in connection with the reorganization on
exchange for $150,000. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary holder of Class B Preferred Stock
are entitled t receive $10,000 per share as a liquidation preference. this
liquidation preference is senior to the liquidation rights of all other classes
of stock except the Class A Preferred's liquidation rights. This provision may
have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control. At any
time, Matech has the option to redeem Class B Preferred stock of $10,000 per
share plus any unpaid dividends. After January 31, 2004, holders have the option
to redeem their shares at any time. The holders have the right to receive cash
dividends, which are determined pursuant to a formula set forth in the
Certificate of Designation. That formula reads as follows: "Each time cash
dividend is paid on the Common Stock there shall also be paid with respect to
each outstanding share of Class B Preferred Stock and amount determined by
multiplying the aggregate amount of the dividend paid with respect to the Common
Stock by a fraction (i) the numerator of which the dividend was paid, and (x)
multiplying the resulting product by thirty percent (30%) and then (y) dividing
the resulting product by five hundred and ten (510)." Holders of Class B
Preferred Stock shall have one (1) vote per share and shall be entitled by class
vote to elect one (1) director and to vote, as a class, on removal of any
director so elected. Otherwise, holders of Class B Preferred Stock shall not
have the right to vote as a class on any matter.
As of date hereof, 5,787,000 shares of Class A Common Stock are outstanding and
held by 419 shareholders; 60,000 shares of Class "B" Common Stock are
outstanding and are held by one shareholder, Robert M. Bernstein; 350,000 shares
of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding and are held by 12
shareholders; and 15 shares of Class B Preferred Stock are outstanding and are
held by one shareholder, Tensiodyne Corporation.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
From time to time, Robert M. Bernstein advanced funds to the Company and at
December 31, 1997 the Company owed him $118,863. The Board has approved paying
Mr. Bernstein interest at the rate of 10% per year on his advances. Robert M.
Bernstein is under no obligation to make further advances to the Company but may
continue to so do at his sole discretion.
In March 1998, the Board authorized the Corporation to issue a total of2,430,000
shares of Class A Common Stock and to sell those shares at $.07 pershare to
Robert M. Bernstien for a total of $170,000 that he has lent to theCorporation,
including $25,000 on March 9, 1998. Mr. Bernstein will offer tosell part of
these Class A Common Stock at $.07 per share to a group ofpreferred shareholders
known as the Baker Group in accordance with a 1994agreement between the Company,
Mr. Bernstein and that Group. The sale of thestock provided needed working
capital.
On August 7, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors passed the following
resolution:
IT IS RESOLVED that, if the Corporation profits substantially from the work of
Robert M. Bernstein by obtaining what the Board determines to be substantial
funding, licensing its technology, selling its technology, merging with another
company, or otherwise profiting in a substantial manner from Mr. Bernstein's
efforts (the "triggering event"), the Corporation shall pay Mr. Bernstein a
minimum of $150,000 in salary for each year that he has acted as President and
Chief Executive Officer from 1991 to the date of the triggering event. This
amount is intended to be a minimum salary and not in addition to any other
salary paid to or accrued for Mr. Bernstein.
On February 21, 1997, Matech 1 entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with
Montpelier Holdings, Inc., ("MHI") SecurFone America, Inc., ("SecurFone") and
Robert M. Bernstein, the Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder of
Matech 1. Under that agreement, on March 4, 1997, the Company (Matech 2) was
formed. On July 31, 1997, Matech 1 transferred all of its assets and liabilities
to Matech 2 in exchange for 5,560,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock and the parties to the Agreement effected a reverse merger of SecurFone
into Matech 1. Upon closing, Matech 1 acquired SecurFone America, Inc., and
issued 4,5000,000 shares of Matech 1's common stock to SecurFone's shareholders
representing 90% of Matech 1's outstanding capital stock. Matech 2 then caused
4,550,000 of its Class A Common shares to be distributed to Matech 1's
shareholders, one share of Matech 2's shares for each share of Matech 1. As part
of this distribution, on July 31, 1997, a registration statement became
effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission under which 707,911 of
these Matech 2 shares were distributed to 408 shareholders with a prospectus.
The Company also issued 450,000 shares to two individuals who arranged the
SecurFone transaction. Matech 1 changed its name to SecurFone America, Inc. and
retained 560,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock.
On March 9, 1997, the Company's Board authorized the issuance of 60,000 shares
of it Class B Common Stock to Robert M. Bernstein, 350,000 shares of its Class A
Convertible Preferred Stock to the Baker Group in exchange for that group's
350,000 shares of preferred stock in Matech 1 which is the subject of litigation
(See, Legal Proceedings), and 15 shares of the Company's Class B Preferred Stock
to Tensiodyne Corporation in exchange for its preferred stock in Matech1. The
rights, privileges, and designations of the Company's Class B Common Stock and
its preferred stock are the same as the corresponding Matech 1 securities except
that the redemption date of Matech 2's Class B Preferred Stock was changed from
January 31,2004 to January 1,2002.
The transfer of Matech's assets and liabilities to Matech 2 and the
distribution of its shares was designed to provide Matech's shareholders with an
interest in SecurFone's business while separating the two businesses which have
distinct missions and distinct financial, investment, and operating
characteristics, as well as different management teams. Maintaining the
separation allows each company to adopt strategies and pursue objectives
appropriate to its specific business and to be valued independently from the
other. The distribution enabled Matech's management to concentrate its attention
and resources on developing its Fatigue Fuse and Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor
without regard to the corporate and financial objectives and policies of
SecurFone.

Independent Auditors' Report
Board of DirectorsMaterial Technologies, Inc.Los Angeles, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Material Technologies, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 1997, and the related
statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders' equity (deficit) for the
year then ended, and for the period from January 1, 1991, through 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. Statements of operations and cash flows for the period from
October 21, 1983 (inception) through December 31, 1990, (with the exception of
1989 which was unaudited) were audited by other auditors whose reports dated on
various dates, expressed unqualified opinions including an explanatory
paragraph, as discussed in Note 4, regarding the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. These standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Material Technologies, Inc. as
of December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the year then ended, and for the period from January 1, 1991 through December
31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations
that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 4. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Organization Material Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was
organized on March 4, 1997, under the laws of the state of Delaware.
On March 9, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of
5,560,000 of its Class A Common Stock to Material Technology, Inc. ("Matech 1")
in exchange for all of Matech 1's operations including all of its assets and the
assumption of all of Matech 1's liabilities.
The formation of this subsidiary and related transfer of assets and liabilities
is in connection with a February 17, 1997 Stock Purchase Agreement among Matech
1, Montpilier Holdings, Inc., SecurFone America, Inc. and the Company's
President. Under this agreement, the parties effected a reverse merger of
SecurFone into Matech 1 immediately after the distribution of this Company's
stock to the shareholders of Matech 1. A schedule of the assets and liabilities
acquired is as follows:PP

Prepaid Expenses $ 6,472
Property & Equipment

The amounts reflected above are the balances reflected in Matech 1's audited
balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, adjusted to take into effect the
conversion of certain loans due a shareholder and the Company's President as
discussed further in Notes 9 and 14. Management has determined that the activity
between this balance sheet date and the actual date of transfer is immaterial.
For financial reporting purposes, the above transaction was treated as a
recapitalization. Therefore, the assets and liabilities transferred have been
recorded at historical cost.
The Company is in the development stage, as defined in FASB Statement 7, with
its principal activity being research and development in the area of metal
fatigue technology with the intent of future commercial application. The Company
has not paid any dividends and dividends which may be paid in the future will
depend on the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors.

to 20 years (see Note 5).
c. Net Loss Per Share

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 4 - Realization of Assets
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the
Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained substantial
operating losses totaling $2,934,942 since its inception through December
31,1997. These continuing losses are an indication that the Company may not be
able to continue to operate.
The Company anticipates that it needs approximately $600,000 in order to
complete the development and marketing of its Fatigue Fuse and approximately
$2,000,000 to develop the Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor.Management believes the
source of the $2,600,000 will be through government grants, sale of the
Company's stock, entering into joint ventures, and or through the sale of
royalty interests.

Note 6 - Litigation Settlement
On October 26, 1992, the Company agreed to an out-of-court settlement resulting
from improprieties by its chief technical consultant, who was also an officer
and director. The settlement resulted in a return from the individual of 5,650
shares of the Company's common stock, a return of 600 warrants to purchase 600
shares of common stock, and a promissory note for $50,000 secured by a mortgage
interest on the individual's residence.
The note was non-interest bearing due and payable upon either the deathof the
individual's spouse or upon conveyance or attempted conveyance of any interest
in the individual's residence. Interest was imputed pursuant to APB-21 at an
annual rate of 8.5%. The balance of this note as of December 31, 1996 was
$25,753. Accrued interest credited to operations for the years 1995 and 1996
were $1,929 and $2,091, respectively.
As of December 31, 1996, the note was in default due to the failure by the
individual to maintain insurance on the property and to pay property taxes.
During 1997, the Company foreclosed on the property and then sold it. The
proceeds received from the sale net of related costs and attorney's fees
amounted to approximately $44,450. The company realized a net gain from the
foreclosure of approximately $18,697.
Note 7 - License Agreement
The Company has entered into a license agreement with the University of
Pennsylvania regarding the development and marketing of the Electrochemical
Fatigue Sensor. The Sensor is designed to measure electrochemically the status
of a structure without knowing the structure's past loading history. The Company
is in the initial stage of developing the Sensor.
Under the terms of the agreement the Company issued to the University 12,500
shares of its common stock, and a 5% royalty on sales of the product. The
Company valued the licensing agreement at $6,250. Under the terms of the
agreement, the license terminates upon the expiration of the underlying patents,
unless sooner terminated as provided in the agreement. The Company is amortizing
the license over 20 years.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 7 - License Agreement (continued)
In addition to entering into the licensing agreement, the Company also agreed to
sponsor the development of the Sensor. Under the Sponsorship agreement, the
Company agreed to reimburse the University development costs totaling
approximately $200,000 which was to be paid in 18 monthly installments of
$11,112. The research and development costs are recorded at present value,
usingan annual interest rate of 8.5%. At December 31, 1995, and 1996, the
presentvalue of this obligation was $188,494. The Company charged the full
$188,494 to operations as research and development in 1993. The Company has not
made any payments toward this obligation.
Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company reimbursed the University
$10,000 in 1996 for the cost it incurred in the prosecution and maintenance of
its patents relating to the Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor.
The Company and the University have agreed to modify the terms of the licensing
agreement and related obligation. The terms of the modified agreements include
an increase in the University's royalty to 7% of the sale of related products,
the issuance of additional shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock to equal
5% of the outstanding stock of the Company as of the effective date of the
modified agreements, and to pay to the University 30% of any amounts raised by
the Company in excess of $150,000 (excluding amounts received on government
grants or contracts) up to the amount owed to the University.
The parties agreed that the balance owed on the Sponsorhip Agreement is $200,000
and commencing June 30, 1997, the balance due will accrue interest at a rate of
1.5% per month until the loan matures on December 16, 2001, when the loan
balance and accrued interest becomes fully due and payable. In addition, under
the agreement, Mr. Bernstein agreed to limit his compensation from the Company
to $150,000 per year until the loan and accrued interest is fully paid. Interest
charged to operations for 1997 relating to this obligation was approximately
$29,505.

interest at major bank prime rate. The principal and all accrued interest is
fully due and payable in 2 years, but the Company is required to pay-off the
loan and accrued interest in full from the proceeds of any independent
financing.
As additional consideration for the loan, the Company granted to Mr. Baker, a 1%
royalty interest in the Fatigue Fuse and a 0.5% royalty interest in the
Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor. The Company has not placed a value on the
royalty interest granted. The balance due on this loan as of December 31, 1996
and 1997 was $32,459 and $35,218, respectively. Interest charged to operations
for 1995, 1996, and 1997 were $2,775, $3,189, and $2,759, respectively.

Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company's commitments and contingencies are as follows:
a. On December 24, 1985, in order to provide funding for research
and development related to the Fatigue Fuse, the Company entered into various
agreements with the Tensiodyne 1985-I R & D Partnership. These agreements were
amended on October 9, 1989, and under the revised terms, obligated the Company
to pay the Partnership a royalty of 10% of future gross sales. The Company's
obligation to the Partnership is limited to the capital contributed to it by its
partners in the amount of approximately $912,500 and accrued interest.
b. On August 30, 1986, the Company entered into a funding agreement
with the Advanced Technology Center ("ATC"), whereby ATC paid $45,000 to the
Company for the purchase of a royalty of 3% of future gross sales and 6% of
sublicensing revenue. The royalty is limited to the $45,000 plus an 11% annual
rate of return. At December 31, 1995, and 1996, the future royalty commitment
was limited to $107,510 and $119,336, respectively.
The payment of future royalties is secured by equipment used by the Company in
the development of technology as specified in the funding agreement.
c. On May 4, 1987, the Company entered into a funding agreement with
ATC, whereby ATC provided $63,775 to the Company for the purchase of a royalty
of 3% of future gross sales and 6% of sublicensing revenues. The agreement was
amended August 28, 1987, and as amended, the royalty

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
cannot exceed the lesser of (1) the amount of the advance plus a 26% annual
rate of return or, (2) total royalties earned for a term of 17 years.
At December 31, 1996, and 1997, the total future royalty commitments, including
the accumulated 26% annual rate of return, was limited to approximately
$554,734, and $698,965, respectively. The future royalties are secured by the
Company's patents, products, and accounts receivable, which may be related to
technology developed with the funding.
d. In 1994, the Company issued to Variety Investments, Ltd. of
Vancouver, Canada ("Variety"), a 22.5% royalty interest on the Fatigue Fuse in
consideration for the cancellation of cash advances made to the Company by
Variety.
In December 1996, in exchange for the issuance by the Company of 250,000 shares
of its Class A Common Stock, Variety reduced its royalty interest to 20%.
e. Under an agreement which was effective February 2, 1994, Tensiodyne
Corporation, the Company's former parent, was obligated to provide $5,100,000 in
financing.
During 1994, the Company received $150,000 under this agreement in exchange for
the issuance of 7,560 shares of its Class A common stock and 15 shares of its
Redeemable Class B Preferred Stock. The $150,000 has been classified for
financial purposes as Redeemable Preferred Stock.
The Shareholders of the preferred stock have the right of redemption at $10,000
per share, if the preferred shares are not redeemed by the Company within 10
years of issuance.
Dividends are payable on the preferred shares to the same extent as aggregate
dividends on the number of shares of common stock equal to 30% of shares of the
Company's common stock outstanding on the closing date. The holders of the
preferred shares will be allowed to elect a director of the Company.
Tensiodyne was not able to fund the full amount of its obligation to the Company
and on November 22, 1994, the Company filed suit against

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
Tensiodyne was not able to fund the full amount of its obligation to the
Company and on November 22, 1994, the Company filed suit against Tensiodyne for
breach of contract. On March 28, 1995, a settlement agreement was entered into
whereby Tensiodyne issued to the Company 6,375,000 shares of its Common Stock.
The proceeds received from the sale of these shares will be used to reduce
Tensiodyne's obligation to pay the remaining balance owing of $4,950,000 and
accrued interest which is assessed under the settlement agreement at 7% per
annum.
The Company also received upon the signing of the settlement agreement 250,000
shares of Tensiodyne common stock.
Management believes that Tensiodyne has insufficient capital to meet its
obligation to pay any of the amounts owed and the Company will have to rely on
the proceeds it receives through the sale of the Tensiodyne shares to reduce the
amount due.
The shares received were subject to restrictions imposed under SEC Rule 144. As
of December 31, 1997, the restrictions imposed by SEC Rule 144 are lifted, but
due to the limited market in which to sell the Tensiodyne stock, it is
impractical to estimate the full value of the obligation owed the Company by
Tensiodyne.
On December 30, 1996, an agreement was entered into whereby Tensiodyne agreed to
exchange the 15 shares of Redeemable Class B Preferred Stock it owned in Matech
1 for 15 shares of the Company's Redeemable Class B Preferred Stock. The rights
of the new issuance will be the same as the rights of the shares exchanged
except the shares in the Company will be redeemable two years earlier on January
31, 2002. In consideration for the exchange, the Company paid Tensiodyne
$5,000.pp ??
f. The Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party
for providing the idea of pursuing a government contract for the funding of the
development of the Company's technologies, under which he would receive a number
of the Company's Class A Common Stock equal to 2.5% of the number of shares
outstanding as of the date a government contract is signed, 15% of the amount of
the government contract, and an appointment to the Company's Board of Directors.
Funds due him will be paid only when such funds become available to the Company.

Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
The Company's obligation is created on the date the government contract is
signed. Under the agreement with this individual, the amounts due will be
evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at major bank prime.
Interest accrues nine months after the government contract is executed, and is
payable quarterly. The principal balance and any accrued interest is paid
through funds raised or earned by the Company. The Company is obligated to pay
12.5% of the first $1,000,000 earned or raised and 15% of any amount in excess
of the $1,000,000.
The Agreement contains anti-dilution provisions relating to the shares to be
issued which expire once $50,000 is paid. The Company's obligation to have this
person as a Director expires once all amounts due are paid. The contingent
amount due has been personally guaranteed by the Company's President and is
secured by the Company's patents. The personal guarantee expires upon the
individual receiving $100,000.
g. As discussed in Note 9, the Company granted a 1% royalty interest
in the Company's Fatigue Fuse and a .5% royalty interest in its Electrochemical
Fatigue Sensor to Mr. Sherman Baker as part consideration on a $25,000 loan made
by Mr. Baker to the Company.

$2,500,000 Phase I contract to "determine the feasibility of [the Company's
Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor ("EFS")
to improve the Unites States Air Force capability to perform durability
assessments of military aircraft, including both air frames and engines through
the application of EFS to specific military aircraft alloys". The Company is
performing services for SWRI and its share of the award is approximately
$550,000 which is to be disbursed for specific purposes as defined in the
contract.
During 1997, the Company earned approximately $336,410 from this agreement
of which approximately $62,332 was due the Company as of December 31, 1997
i) Operating Leases
The Company leases its existing office under a noncancelable lease which expires
on May 31, 1999.
Rental expense charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 1995,
1996, and 1997 were approximately $28,514, $29,017, and $28,137, which consisted
solely of minimum rental payments.
Minimum rental commitments under the noncancelable lease expires as follows:

Note 12 - Investments
The Company through a settlement with Tensiodyne Corporation received 6,581,250
of Class A Common Stock of Tensiodyne Corporation. During 1996, the Company
received approximately $17,750 through the sale of 50,000 shares of Tensiodyne
Corporation stock.
As of December 31, 1996, these shares were restricted and subject to Rule 144 of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Of the remaining 6,581,250 shares owned
by the Company, approximately 690,000 shares were free trading. The Company is
accounting for the free trading shares pursuant to FASB Statement 115. The
690,000 shares were valued at their market value using the price as quoted on
the bulletin board at December 31, 1996, of $.08 per share. The Company has
classified these shares as available for sale and the unrealized gain on these
shares at December 31, 1996, amounting to $55,200 has been classified to
stockholders' deficit.
In 1997, the sales restrictions of Rule 144 expired. Using the price as quoted
on the bulletin board at December 31, 1997, of approximately $.10 per share, the
market value of the 6,531,250 shares would be approximately $653,125. However
due to the share's limited market, the Company believes that the actual proceeds
it would derive from the sale of these shares at December 31, 1997 would be far
lower then its $653125 computed value. The Company believes that the decline in
value is other than temporary, and therefore has continued to value these shares
at $55,200.
