PART I

THE COMPANY

Item 1.      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

(a)

History and Development of Our Inventions

   

                Torvec, Inc. was incorporated as a New York business corporation on September 25, 1996. Upon its incorporation, the company acquired numerous patents, inventions and know-how developed for more than thirty years by Vernon E. Gleasman and members of his family. Upon its incorporation, the company commenced the development of its full terrain vehicle ("FTV™") - the merger of the speed and handling of a truck with the full terrain capability of a tracked vehicle. Through the ongoing creation, development and improvement of its FTV, the company developed the following inventions relating to seven distinct fields of automotive and related technology, each of which having individual commercial potential:

   
   

(i)

Iso-torque™ differential (next generation of Torsen® differential - see "Torsen" on Google websearcher);

       
   

(ii)

infinitely-variable transmission;

       
   

(iii)

steering drive and suspension system for tracked vehicles;

       
   

(iv)

high speed, steel-reinforced rubber tracks;

       
   

(v)

hydraulic pump and motor;

       
   

(vi)

spherical gearing constant velocity mechanism;

       
   

(vii)

ice adhesion modification system.

                As a family, the Gleasmans manufactured, operated and sold their own innovative products and companies for the 30 years prior to the company's incorporation. The Gleasmans knowledge of the automotive industry and its trends was the basis of the invention of the company's FTV. The Gleasman's creativity, experience and expertise have been recognized worldwide - in particular, Vernon E. Gleasman was the recipient of the Society of Automotive Engineers' 1983 Schwitzer Award for the most innovative new product at the Indianapolis 500 and the 2001 Distinguished Inventor of the Year Award granted by the Rochester Intellectual Property Law Association. In addition Vernon Gleasman has been nominated for the Lemelson-MIT prize, one of, if not the, most prestigious engineering awards in the world. For further information on this prize please see www.lemelson.org.

   

                To this date there is no worldwide, patented tracked vehicle with the high speed (60 mph) and handling characteristics of the company's FTV. To facilitate the development of the FTV the company had to resolve numerous engineering hurdles and the company's success in so resolving these engineering problems led to the inventions described above. The first generation FTV prototype was completed in February, 1999 and was initially showcased to the public in early spring, 1999. We have continued to improve the FTV since its introduction in the spring of 1999.

                The company intends to incorporate all of the above-referenced inventions into its FTV and commercialize the FTV as a stand alone vehicle. However, each of the company's inventions can be commercialized on an individual basis and the company intends to sell, license and/or jointly commercialize each of its inventions separately in order to generate monies necessary to fully develop and commercialize the company's FTV.

 

 


               The company and its subsidiaries rely on the services of three officers, those of its management consulting firm, CXO on the GO, LLC, and on the full-time services of Keith and James Gleasman as consultants.

(b)   Our Automotive Properties

               The following is an overview of our automotive technologies:

Torvec's FTV ä


               Historically, wheeled trucks and cars have been able to travel at high speeds on prepared roads and are easy to drive and steer. However, wheeled trucks and cars have lacked the ability to traverse truly difficult terrain. On the other hand, tracked vehicles have the ability to traverse truly difficult terrain but are difficult to steer precisely, are cumbersome to drive and are limited to relatively low speeds even on prepared roads.

               The company's FTV prototype is a new type of vehicle, that management believes combines the high speed capabilities of trucks and cars with the high traction capabilities of tracked vehicles.  The company has tested the FTV prototype over the past 4 years. It has demonstrated the FTV in person to representatives of many Tier I and Tier II automotive and truck componentry suppliers who are potential joint venture suppliers of the company's FTV. The company's overall strategy with respect to its FTV is to realize the capital necessary to launch the FTV through the sale or license of one or more of the company's patented technologies.

               Based upon these tests, demonstrations and the reaction of industry representatives, the company believes it has shown that the FTV is relatively easy to drive and steers as easily as a car and that it has shown that this tracked vehicle can traverse almost any terrain, with speeds of up to 60 mph being attainable on pavement and other relatively flat surfaces. The company also believes that it has shown that the FTV is also environmentally sensitive since its low ground pressure, less than 2 pounds per square inch, does not damage paved road surfaces or leave ruts or cause potholes on unpaved surfaces. The FTV is able to perform as it does because of its unique steering mechanism, which is protected by several U.S., European and Japanese patents. This steer-drive mechanism can best be described in engineering terms as a hydro-mechanical steering mechanism. The "mechanical" portion is manufactured from conventional, high volume gearing, while the "hydro" portion is our patented hydraulic pump and motor. Conventional hydraulic pumps and motors are large, noisy and inefficient at low revolutions per minute. The company believes its patented hydraulic pump and motor has solved these problems.


               It should be noted that unlike the United States, the vast majority of third world country roads are unpaved. The FTV is a highly desirable vehicle in these countries given their poor road conditions and weather extremes. The market is significant - 4,000,000 four wheel drive vehicles and light trucks are sold in the Asian, African, Central and South American markets annually ( Automotive News , March 2003).


Torvec's ISO-Torque ä Differential

               In 1951, Vernon E. Gleasman invented the dual-drive differential (the Torsen®). For the next thirty years, Vernon Gleasman and his sons manufactured and marketed this differential for the military, for incorporation in high performance cars, off road cars and 4x4 trucks. In 1982 the Gleasmans sold the Torsen differential to Gleason Corporation (for further information on the Torsen, explore "Torsen" on the Google websearcher).

               The company's ISO-Torque differential is a dramatically less expensive more efficient and lighter improvement on the Torsen. The Torsen is standard equipment on many major automobiles including Lexus, Toyota, Audi, Land Rover, GM vehicles and others. The major hurdle to the Torsen's utilization in a larger percentage of cars and trucks is price and weight. The company believes that the ISO-Torque differential eliminates these barriers.

 

Torvec's Infinitely Variable Transmission - Hydraulic Pump/Motor

               The company's infinitely variable transmission is a transmission that provides an uninterrupted drive through an infinite number of speed ratios, allowing ideal torque flow to propel the vehicle while permitting the engine to run at optimum efficiency. The company believes that the next generation of diesel engines with state-of-the-art electronics will allow interfacing and provide the necessary mechanisms to adequately control the infinitely variable transmission. Industry data has shown that the use of continuously variable and infinitely variable transmissions improves the fuel efficiency of all engines (gas/diesel), thus leading to reduced pollution. The company believes that its infinitely variable transmission will permit automotive diesel/gasoline engines to operate at ideal combustion rates which will reduce pollution and provide improved fuel economy under normal operations.

               In addition to having the potential of reducing diesel particulates and NOx, the company's transmission is less complicated and has approximately 1/3 fewer parts when compared to a conventional four or five speed automatic transmission, making it smaller in size and lighter in weight. The company's transmission, which the company believes will be simpler and less expensive to manufacture than existing transmissions, should provide the automotive industry with a higher performing product at a lower cost.


                In December, 1999, the company finished an extensive CAD/CAM evaluation of the infinitely variable transmission. The evaluation included finite element analysis, fluid dynamics analysis and material compatibility analysis for "real world conditions" under temperatures ranging from minus 20 degrees fahrenheit to 120 degrees.

               During the summer and fall of 2003, the company took the next steps toward commercialization of its infinitely variable transmission. The company installed the infinitely variable transmission in a 2003 Dodge Ram 3/4 ton 4x4 quad pick-up truck, with an electronically controlled 2004 emissions compliant Cummins turbo-diesel engine. This engine is 5.9 liters in displacement, 250 bhp at 2900 rpm and has 460 lb-ft of torque at 1400 rpm. We chose this engine size because it represents a huge market - SUVs, light trucks, delivery trucks, school buses, airport shuttle buses and class 3 to 5 trucks.

               The company next engaged the independent engineering firm of Viewpoint Systems, Inc. (a "Select Integrator" of National Instruments) to conduct a series of fuel-efficiency tests on the transmission. These independent tests confirmed that the company's 3/4-ton 4x4 Dodge Ram truck, utilizing the company's infinitely variable transmission with a diesel engine, generated a 96% improvement in fuel mileage over that obtained by a gasoline-powered, 4-speed automatic 4x4 truck of comparable weight and horsepower to the most popular SUVs. The tests also confirmed that Torvec's 3/4 ton diesel truck --

                --generated a 38.5% improvement in fuel efficiency over a same-model Dodge 4x4 diesel truck                   with a 4-speed automatic; and

                --generated a 28.5% improvement in fuel efficiency over a same model Dodge 4x4 diesel truck
                  with a manual transmission.

               In addition to demonstrating that our transmission achieved superior fuel economy, the tests also confirmed that other objectives, long sought by the automotive industry, were achieved:

                --the elimination of "vehicle creep", a characteristic of an automatic transmission

                 vehicle at rest without application of the brake;

               --interchangeability, i.e. Torvec's infinitely variable transmission fit in the same space
                as an existing automatic transmission, thus, eliminating the need for major costly
                 design changes to car and truck frames.

               The company's patented infinitely variable transmission dramatically reduces weight, complexity and cost compared to previously designed pumps and motors. More specifically, a commercial hydraulic pump and motor that is 12.7 cubic inch displacement weighs approximately 360 pounds compared with the company's equivalent pump and motor which weighs approximately 80 pounds.




Spherical Gearing Constant Velocity Mechanism

               The company's constant velocity mechanism features a new form of gearing - spherical gearing - which is based upon the geometry of spheres rather than conventional gear geometry of cylinders and cones. The company has developed this spherical gearing to replace constant velocity joints used, among other places in all front wheel drive vehicles. The company's constant velocity joint is a departure from known designs and its efficiency and weight savings may provide significant competitive advantage in the annual constant velocity joint market of over 200,000,000 per year. The spherical gearing constant velocity mechanism has been prototyped in steel and constituted the basis for the Rochester Intellectual Property Law Association awarding Vernon Gleasman its Distinguished Inventor of the Year Award in 2001.

               The company's spherical gears have been used to form a geared ball and socket coupling in which driving tooth contact is maintained continuously while at the same time permitting the coupling to be

flexed up to 52 degrees. The potential versatility of the company's spherical gears may open the door to many yet unknown solutions and products yet to be discovered.

               The company's constant velocity joint delivers torque through a varying angle. For example, it moves through a drive shaft to the wheels of a front wheel drive car as it is steered. The patented breakthrough in the company's constant velocity joint, management believes, is the unique use of spherical geometry to deliver torque over a greater range of motion and more evenly, with fewer parts, less weight and lower cost than the competition.

               The company initially developed its constant velocity joint to provide a better performing torque transfer component for some of its other products. It has recently begun pursuing applications beyond its original intended use. In particular, the constant velocity joint has great potential as a general component to many automotive suppliers, providing a proprietary offering in a commodity field with annual unit sales in excess of 200 million.

(c)     Our Ice Technology

               On November 29, 2000, the company acquired Ice Surface Development, Inc. ("ISDI"), from UTEK Corporation, 202 South Wheeler Street, Plant City, Florida 33566. As a result of the merger, the company acquired a 20-year, exclusive worldwide license granted by the Trustees of Dartmouth College for land-based motorized applications to a novel ice adhesion modification system developed by Professor Victor F. Petrenko at Dartmouth's Thayer School of Engineering. Our subsidiary, ISDI, is in the process of developing Dr. Petrenko's theoretical constructs into practical, demonstrable ice technology - see our web site www.torvec.com and the web site of our subsidiary ISDI- www.icesurfacedev.com .

 

The Ice technology as being developed by ISDI may allow for the rapid deicing of vehicle services utilizing three variations for deicing and corresponding process technologies:

       
   

(i)

direct current method - through electrolysis, creates a pressurized gas that breaks up and ejects ice, which is ideal for initial ice removal;

       
   

(ii)

alternating current (high frequency) method - melts interfacial ice with minimal heat exchange to the surrounding environment thereby reducing power requirements - this method is capable of continuously maintaining ice-free surfaces;

       
   

(iii)

pulse method-creates a short-term water barrier that enables ice to be easily removed. This method works well for initial removal and is relatively simple to produce.

       
         

               Aside from being designed to repel ice on glass and other surfaces, our ice technology may also increase the traction of rubber on ice. New ice traction systems based upon this technology could give vehicles, including the FTV, as much traction on ice as if they were driving on dry pavement. Vehicles could one day be equipped with "smart" tracks that grab ice.

   

               The company acquired ISDI from UTEK to integrate the Dartmouth de-icing technology into its FTV ä as well as to sub-license the technology for a wide-assortment of land-based motorized

vehicle applications (e.g. cars, trucks, trains and trailers), including their components (e.g. windshields).

 


(d)     Current Status of Product Development

See Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation, page 22.

(e)     Competition and Market Acceptance

               The company believes that its automotive technology is superior to similar products manufactured in the automotive industry and in some instances represents a true paradigm shift with respect to presently known technology. However, once the company commences operations, it will be competing against companies that have significantly greater financial, marketing and operating resources than the company. The company also believes that no other company in the world possesses the right to commercialize technology similar to its ice technology in the motorized, land-based vehicle field.

               The company's immediate future development is dependent upon its ability to successfully interest one or more strategic partners (either an automotive OEM and/or first tier supplier) in acquiring one or all of the company's technologies to fund the company's manufacture and marketing of its FTV™. It is also dependent upon acceptance of the FTV vehicle especially in the Asian, African, South and Central American markets.

               With respect to these foreign markets, the infrastructure of most of Asia, Africa, South and Central America is very similar to the U.S. in the early 1900's. At that time U.S. demographics were as follows: eighty percent of the population lived in rural areas, income was low and transportation was limited to walking, bicycles, push carts and animal pulled vehicles. Roads, when they existed, were dirt and at time impassable due to terrain or inclement weather. Even with the advent of automobiles, commerce remained inhibited because paved roads were only found in the cities. Similarly, the wheeled vehicles of the developing country today can only traverse the rural dirt roads during certain seasons of the year. When roads are in rough condition (e.g., muddy, blocked by snow or ice, etc.), there is little difference in travel time between an animal drawn cart, a man on foot or bicycle, or a wheeled car. If they are able to travel at all, even four-wheel drive vehicles are usually limited to 4-5 mph under these conditions. The idealized vehicle would be a vehicle that could travel at higher speeds (25-50 mph), regardless of the terrain, significantly shortening the travel time between rural areas and the primary marketplaces in the city. A tracked vehicle, in effect, "brings its own road with it".

               The company's ability to generate revenue and become profitable is also dependent upon the automotive industry's acceptance of its other products, namely the Iso-Torque differential, infinitely-variable transmission, the hydraulic pump and motor, the constant velocity joint and spherical gearing. The company's ultimate growth and future financial performance will depend on demonstrating the advantages of such products over existing technologies to an automotive industry which has committed substantial resources to product systems utilizing old technology. In addition, despite management's belief that its products are superior, the company will have to overcome the "not invented here" attitude that permeates the industry.

 

Item 2.      DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.


               The company has leased premises at Powder Mills Office Park, 1169 Pittsford-Victor Rd., Suite 125, Pittsford, New York 14534 for use as its executive offices. The lease is for a period of 3 years, commencing July 1, 2004 expiring on June 30, 2007 with rental payments throughout the period payable at the rate of $2,164.01 per month. The facilities consist of 1,737 square feet of rentable space and provide for 2 conference rooms, 3 offices and a storage area. The company is also responsible for its share of real estate taxes, certain maintenance and repair costs, and increases in utility costs associated with the premises.

               On August 1, 2004, the company leased premises consisting of a 520 square foot automobile bay and utilization of a 7,000 lb. lift for a term of six months at a rental rate of $600 per month. The lease arrangement permitted the company to have access to a state-of-the-art mustang dynamometer. On December 31, 2004, the company purchased from the previous owner, the dynamometer, the 7,000 lb. lift, a compressor as well as the dynamometer pit and fixtures, fluorescent lighting, HUBC hoses and blowers and assumed the lease and lease agreement from the previous tenant for the entire premises, consisting of a 3,932 sq. ft. facility, including 3 automobile bays. The lease term expires on February 28, 2007 with a monthly rental of $2,100.

                On March 1, 2005 the company entered into a 12 month lease with a shareholder pursuant to which the company rents a 3,131 square foot facility consisting of a 308 square foot office, and a 231 square foot conference room and a 2,592 square foot shop and manufacturing facility. The company is furnished with the services of three engineers and two machine operators at the facility. The company is obligated to pay 10,000 shares of its common stock on a monthly basis for the facility and services.


Item 3.      LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

               On October 26, 2004, the company commenced an action in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York against ZT Technologies, Inc., an Indiana corporation based in Carmel, Indiana.

              The suit petitioned the Court to declare the July 21, 2004 agreement between the parties to be ineffective and unenforceable as between the parties and with respect to any third party.

              The parties contemplate entering into a Settlement and Mutual Release of Claims agreement by virtue of which each party will pay its own attorney's fees, and the July 21, 2004 agreement between the company and ZT Technologies, Inc. will be declared ineffective and unenforceable as between the parties.

              There is no other litigation involving the company. To the knowledge of management, no federal, state or local governmental agency is presently contemplating any proceeding against the company.

It is currently developing with a joint venture partner a coating process designed to enable microcircuitry to be applied to glass surfaces without visual distortion. Our subsidiary is actively seeking a partner in the power supply field to assist it develop an industry-acceptable power supply for the ice technology.

               The company's license agreement with Dartmouth provides for a royalty of 3.5% based
on the value of net sales of licensed product with minimum annual payments of $10,000 for the
first two years, $15,000 for the third year and $25,000 per year thereafter. In addition, the
agreement provides for the payment of 50% of sub-license fee income.

(b) Current Status of Product Development

               Based upon our experience and research to date, we believe the following inventions will eventually become commercially viable:

o

o

o

o

o

o

the FTV ä , including the steering drive and suspension for tracked vehicles;

the Iso-Torque™ differential;

the infinitely variable transmission;

the hydraulic pump and motor;

spherical gearing constant velocity mechanism;

the ice technology.

These inventions are in the following stages of development.

o

The Iso-Torque ä differential - patent protection for this invention was issued July 8, 2004. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Iso-Torque Corporation, we anticipate building one or more prototype Iso-Torques and expect to showcase the new differential to the military as well as automotive, truck, and bus manufacturers and first-tier suppliers.

   

o

The infinitely variable transmission - the prototype which incorporates our hydraulic pump and motor, was installed in a 2003 Dodge Ram 3/4 ton 4x4 quad cab pickup truck, using an electronically controlled 2004 emissions compliant Cummins turbo-diesel engine. In the fall of 2003, we successfully completed tests which demonstrated that the truck generated:

 

-


-


-

a 96% improvement in fuel mileage over that obtained by a gasoline-powered, 4-speed automatic 4x4 truck of comparable weight and horsepower to the most popular SUVs;

a 38.5% improvement in fuel efficiency over a same-model Dodge 4x4 diesel truck with 4-speed automatic, and

a 28.5% improvement in fuel efficiency over a same-model Dodge 4x4 diesel truck with a manual transmission.

 

The company's tests conducted under the supervision of personnel at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory, Ann Arbor, Michigan in late May, 2004 demonstrated that our 12.2 cubic inch displacement hydraulic pump achieved significant efficiencies operating at 300 to 700 revolutions per minute (rpm) and 200 to 1,400 pounds per square inch (psi). These results confirmed that a fully-loaded vehicle, such as an SUV, equipped with our hydraulic pump/motor system (which is the heart of the IVT) will be capable of achieving city-driving start-up speeds in excess of 20 mph at between 700-750 rpm while the same SUV, equipped with an automatic transmission incorporating a torque converter, would only be idling at the same rpm, requiring approximately 2500 rpm to attain a speed of 20 mph from start-up. The lower the rpm, the greater the fuel savings. The greater the fuel savings, the less fuel emissions. Since approximately 85% of U.S. produced vehicles have automatic transmissions and torque converters and since, according to EPA statistics, over 60% of all driving occurs in city conditions, the company believes that the evidence gathered at the EPA confirms its long-held view that the adoption of its IVT by the automotive industry will result in very significant fuel savings, both diesel and gasoline, as well as fewer emissions. We believe that it will be possible for gasoline powered vehicles equipped with our IVT to achieve in city driving approximately the same mpg as is currently achieved by those vehicles during highway operation.

 

We have installed the infinitely variable transmission in a 2004 gasoline-fueled Tahoe and are performing EPA city driving and other tests (some of which were suggested by auto manufacturers). The tests compare, among other items, the fuel efficiencies generated by the Tahoe running on a Mustang dynamometer equipped with the OEM automatic transmission (the "baseline tests") as against the same Tahoe running on the same dynamometer equipped with the company's infinitely variable transmission.

   
 

The company is conducting these tests using our own custom designed electronic engine control unit.

   
 

We are also in the process of building another infinitely variable transmission to enable our subsidiary, IVT Diesel Corp., to enter into one or more joint ventures with strategic partners to offer complete diesel drive-train units to the U.S. military and for use in commercial vehicles, including Class 3 trucks and school buses. We expect that the diesel drive-train units offered will be loaded with technology driven features which will significantly improve performance in the recipient vehicles. The combined technological improvements should result in fuel savings, lower environmental emissions, increased driving performance, enhanced safety and greater reliability and durability.

     

o

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary IVT Diesel Corp., we have entered the FTV™ in the 2005 Grand Challenge sponsored by the Defense Advance Research Project Agency (DARPA), the central research and development organization of the U.S. Department of Defense. The purpose of the DARPA Grand Challenge is to develop a fully autonomous (not remote controlled) vehicle needed by the U.S. military in the war against terror. The Challenge supports the Congressional mandate that 30% of all U.S. military vehicles be capable of autonomous navigation by 2015.

The 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge is a cooperative effort of IVT Diesel Corp., MotoTron (a subsidiary of Brunswick Corporation) and Traxen Corporation. MotoTron will provide the vehicle control system and suitable application support while Traxen will provide the sensor fusion software, obstacle detection components and appropriate application support for integration with the command and control systems.

The 2005 Grand Challenge will be held on October 8, 2005 in the desert Southwest. The team (and there were 195 entrants as of the February 11, 2005 deadline) that develops an autonomous ground vehicle that finishes the designated route most quickly within 10 hours will receive $2 million. The route will be no more than 175 miles over desert terrain featuring natural and manmade obstacles. The exact route will not be revealed until 2 hours before the event begins.

Teams must qualify in order to participate in the actual October 8, 2005 Challenge Event. The first step is submission of a video demonstration by March 11, 2005 to determine which teams advance to the Site Visit. The evaluation conducted at the Site Visit (to be held May 2-21, 2005) determines the teams eligible for entry to the National Qualification Event (September 28-October 6, 2005) at which final participants are determined. Of the 195 entrants, DARPA will select 40 as semifinalists for the NQE event and 20 finalists for the Challenge itself.

   

o

The constant velocity joint - the prototype is complete and is ready for comprehensive tests. A partner is being sought to further commercialization.

   

               On June 29, 2000, the company announced that it had granted an exclusive, world-wide license of all its automotive technology to Variable Gear, LLC for the aeronautical and marine markets. Variable Gear will pay the company 4% royalties for 7 years after which the company is obligated to repurchase the license. Variable Gear is owned 51% by Robert C. Horton, Chairman and CEO of Ultrafab, Inc. and a company shareholder. The Company owns the remaining 49%. The company does not share in any profit or losses in this entity. Variable Gear to date has not commenced operations or sublicensed our automotive technology in its markets.

 

(c)     Company Expenses

               The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $9,805,000 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003 net loss of $2,927,000. The increase in the net loss of $6,878,000 is principally related to increases in general and administrative expense.

               Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 amounted to $2,165,000 as compared to $1,839,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase amounted to $326,000. This increase is attributable to increased costs associated with commercializing our technologies.

               General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 amounted to $7,932,000 as compared to $1,501,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase amounted to $6,431,000 and is principally due to the costs associated with warrants issued to our management consulting firm.

(d)     Liquidity And Capital Resources

               The company's business activities during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 were funded through the sale of 60,000 common shares to a major shareholder for $301,000, the sale of 235,770 Class A Preferred shares for approximately $943,000 and the sale of 42,500 Class B Preferred shares for $212,000.

               During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the company issued 469,883 shares to business consultants under its Business Consultants Stock Plan in exchange for ongoing corporate legal services, internal accounting services, business advisory services as well as legal fees and associated expenses for ongoing patent work and litigation. As of December 31, 2004 there are 1,886,168 shares available for future grants under the plan.

               James and Keith Gleasman have developed a working arrangement with the company that assures the company with continued access to the Gleasmans' expertise without unduly burdening the company's financial statements with the continuing expense of consulting fees. Under this arrangement, James and Keith Gleasman will continue to provide consulting services and assign new patents, existing patent improvements and all know-how in connection with all their inventions to the company. In addition, Keith Gleasman will continue to serve as President and as a director and James Gleasman will continue to serve as Chief Strategist, Investor Relations and as a director.

               For calendar 2005, each of the Gleasmans intends to sell, from his own personal holdings of Torvec, an average of approximately 500 common shares daily at prevailing market prices at the time of sale. The total number of shares sold under this plan, if all shares are sold, represents approximately 2% of the current Gleasman family holdings.

               At December 31, 2004, the company's cash position was $574,000, and the company had a working capital deficiency of $1,090,000. The company's cash position at anytime during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 was directly dependent upon its success in selling stock since the company did not generate any revenues. The company does not know whether it will generate revenues from its business activities during fiscal year 2005.

               At December 31, 2004, the company had accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,785,000.

                The company has an obligation to repurchase 51% of Variable Gear, LLC on January 1, 2008. The purchase price is equal to 51% of the then value of Variable Gear as determined by an independent appraiser selected by the parties. This liability can not be estimated at this time. We believe that a combination of cash flows from operations, financing and strategic alliances will produce sufficient cash flow to fund this obligation.

(e)     Subsequent Event

          On March 16, 2005, and March 25, 2005 a shareholder purchased an aggregate 47,500 Class A Preferred Shares for $190,000.

(f)     Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

               Revenue in connection with the granting of the license to Variable Gear, LLC is to be recognized when all conditions for earning such fee is complete. Generally, revenue is only recorded when no future performance is required related to the item.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

                The Company has adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." Accordingly, whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the assets. Management is also required to evaluate the useful lives each reporting period. When events or circumstances indicate, our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite useful lives, are tested for impairment by using the estimated future cash flows directly associated with, and that are expected to arise as a direct result of, the use of the assets. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, an impairment may be indicated. The carrying amount is then compared to the estimated discounted cash flows, and if there is an excess, such amount is recorded as an impairment.

(g)     Impact of Inflation

               Inflation has not had a significant impact on the company's operations to date and management is currently unable to determine the extent inflation may impact the company's operations during its fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

(h)     Quarterly Fluctuations

               As of December 31, 2004, the company had not engaged in revenue producing operations. Once the company actually commences significant revenue producing operations, the company's operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period as a result of a variety of factors, including purchasing patterns of consumers, the length of the company's sales cycle to key customers and distributors, the timing of the introduction of new products and product enhancements by the company and its competitors, technological factors, variations in sales by product and distribution channel, product returns, and competitive pricing. Consequently, once the company actually commences significant revenue producing operations, the company's product revenues may vary significantly by quarter and the company's operating results may experience significant fluctuations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Torvec, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Torvec, Inc. (a development stage company), and its subsidiaries as of 4, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended 4 and for the period from September 25, 1996 (inception) through 4 and changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) for the periods from September 25, 1996 (inception) through 4. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements enumerated above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Torvec, Inc. and subsidiaries as of 4, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended 4 and for the period from September 25, 1996 (inception) through 4, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

TORVEC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(a development stage company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2004

 

Note A - The Company

Torvec, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in New York on September 25, 1996. The Company, which is in the development stage, specializes in automotive technology. In September 1996, the Company acquired numerous patents, inventions and know-how (the "technology") contributed by Vernon E. Gleasman and members of his family (the "Gleasmans"). The Company intends to develop and design specific applications for this technology relating to steering drives for tracked vehicles, infinitely variable transmissions, hydraulic pumps and motors and constant velocity joints and spherical gearings. As consideration for this contributed technology, the Company issued 16,464,400 shares of common stock and $365,000 to the Gleasmans. In September 1996, the Company issued 2,535,600 shares of common stock (valued at $406,000) to individuals as consideration for the cost of services and facilities provided in assisting with the development of this technology.

For the period from inception through December 31, 2004, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $31,875,000, and at December 31, 2004 has a working capital deficiency of $1,090,000 and has been dependent upon equity financing and advances from stockholders to meet its obligations and sustain operations. The Company's efforts have been principally devoted to research and development, raising capital and marketing of principal products. Substantial additional financing will be required by the Company to fund its activities. In the circumstances the Company has established a budget to provide for its continued operations through December 31, 2005. On April 5, 2005, the Company had secured a funding commitment from a stockholder to fund operations, and other special projects on an as needed basis, of approximately $360,000 through December 31, 2005. In addition to the funding commitment, the stockholder purchased 47,500 shares of its Class A Preferred Stock for $190,000 on March 16, 2005 .

On November 29, 2000, the Company acquired Ice Surface Development, Inc. ("Ice") (incorporated on May 2, 2000) for 1,068,354 shares of common stock valued at approximately $3,405,000. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. On March 31, 2002, the Company granted to three former officers of the Company 28% of Ice in exchange for previously granted fully vested options (see Note I[1]). The exchange was valued at $618,000 based upon the estimated fair value of the options cancelled. The difference between the Company's deemed proceeds of $618,000 and the carrying portion of the Company's investment deemed sold of $850,000 is reflected as a reduction of paid in capital in stockholders' equity.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

[1]   Consolidation:

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiary, Ice (69.26% owned at December 31, 2004), and its wholly owned subsidiary Iso-Torque Corporation. All material intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

[2]   Property and Equipment:

Equipment, including a prototype vehicle, is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are being amortized over shorter of lease term or useful life.

[3]   Research and development and patents:

Research and development costs and patent expenses are charged to operations as incurred.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

[4]   License:

Through December 31, 2004, the license was being amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately 19 years which correlates to an underlying patent. Charges for amortization in each of the years ended December 31, 2004, and 2003 was $169,000. Such amortization expense is included in research and development expense. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company has changed its estimate of economic useful life to 3 years.

Total future amortization of the license are as follows:

$ 2,568,000

[5]   Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates are used in valuing assets and determining the useful life of such assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

[6]   Loss per common share:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," requires the presentation of basic earnings per share, which is based on common stock outstanding, and dilutive earnings per share, which gives effect to options, warrants and convertible securities in periods when they are dilutive. At December 31, 2004 and 2003 the Company excluded 2,832,435 (excluding 500,000 warrant subject to exercise conditions) and 2,543,300 potential common shares, respectively, relating to convertible preferred stock outstanding options and warrants from its diluted net loss per common share calculation because they are anti-dilutive.

[7]   Fair value of financial instruments:

The carrying amount of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The fair value of loans payable to stockholders and officers are not readily determinable due to the related party nature of those items.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

[8]   Stock-based compensation:

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has elected to account for its employee stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB No. 25"). Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options granted for goods or nonemployee services are measured using the fair value of these options and such costs are included in operating results as an expense.

The Company applies APB No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its employee and director stock options. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock options been determined based upon the fair value of awards under the Plan consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the Company's pro forma net loss attributable to common stockholders and related pro forma per share amounts would be as follows:

The fair value of options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing the following assumptions:  risk free rate of 3.85%; expected option life 10 years; expected stock volatility of 1.64%; and expected dividend yield 0%.

[9]   Revenue recognition:

Revenue in connection with the granting of a license to Variable Gear LLC (Note I[2]) is to be recognized when all conditions for earning such fee is complete. Revenue will be recognized when the related products are shipped, title has passed, collections are reasonably assured and the Company has no further obligation. An allowance for discounts and returns will be taken as a reduction of sales within the same period the revenue is recognized. Such allowances will be based on facts and circumstances.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

[10]  Impairment of long-lived assets:

The Company follows SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." Accordingly, whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the assets. Management is also required to evaluate the useful lives each reporting period. When events or circumstances indicate, our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite useful lives, are tested for impairment by using the estimated future cash flows directly associated with, and that are expected to arise as a direct result of, the use of the assets. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, an impairment may be indicated. The carrying amount is then compared to the estimated discounted cash flows, and if there is an excess, such amount is recorded as an impairment.

[11]  Recent accounting standards:

In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123 (Revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment: an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("FAS 123R"). FAS 123R is effective for public entities that file as small business issuers as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 31, 2005. Therefore, we will adopt it during fiscal 2006. FAS 123R sets accounting requirements for "share-based" compensation to employees, requires companies to recognize in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and disallows the use of the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock compensation. We are currently evaluating the impact that this statement will have on our results of operations.

Note C - License From the Trustees of Dartmouth College

On November 28, 2000, Ice entered into a 20-year exclusive license with the Trustees of Dartmouth College ("Dartmouth") for land-based applications to a novel ice adhesion modification system developed by Dr. Victor Petrenko at Dartmouth's Thayer School of Engineering for $25,000. The license agreement provides for the payment of $140,000 for sponsored research and a royalty of 3.5% based on the value of net sales of licensed product with minimum annual payments of $10,000 for the first two years, $15,000 for the third year and $25,000 per year thereafter. In addition, the agreement provides for the payment of 50% of sub-license fee income.

Expense for the above agreements totaled $23,000 and $23,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

On February 27, 2004, Dartmouth agreed to defer payment of the $15,000 royalty due November 2003. The company paid the $15,000 deferred royalty fee and the $25,000 royalty fee for the 2004 license year in the first quarter 2005.

[12]  Issuance of Stock and Warrants by Subsidiary:

These issuances reduced the Company's interest in the subsidiary from 72% to approximately 69.26%. Based on the Company's accounting policy, the change in the Company's proportionate share of Ice's equity resulting from the additional equity raised by the subsidiary is accounted for as a capital transaction and has been reflected as an increase in stockholders' equity. Pursuant to Ice's private placement the Company, has reserved the right but not the obligation, for a period not to exceed 30 months from June 9, 2003 or any subsequent offering of Ice stock, to purchase all of the capital stock of Ice (including shares to be issued upon exercise of outstanding warrants of Ice) at a purchase price equal to the greater of $3.00 per share or the appraised value of Ice with such appraised value capped at $6.00 per share.

In connection with the private placement, Ice issued 53,948 warrants to the placement agent exercisable at $.76 per share through June 9, 2008. In addition, 50,000 warrants were issued by Ice to a consultant exercisable at $.76 per common share through June 9, 2008.

[1]   Employment agreements:

The Company has entered into three employment agreements with stockholders for a period of three years, commencing on the first day of the month in which the Company receives the proceeds from an IPO. Two agreements each provide for salaries of $150,000 per year. The third agreement provides for a salary of $240,000 in the first year, $252,000 in the second year and $264,000 in the third year and provides for a minimum bonus of $15,000 per quarter for the duration of the agreement. Effective August 1, 2001, such employment agreements were terminated. However, options previously granted pursuant to those agreements remain in effect. No compensation charge has been reflected related to their change in status since the individuals were also members of the board of directors. As of December 31, 2002, the options were fully vested.

Effective January 1, 2002, one of the directors resigned. Consequently, the Company recorded a charge of $32,000 relating to the estimated fair value of the remaining vesting of such directors options during 2002.

On August 1, 2001, the Company entered into three-year employment agreements with its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer. The employment agreements provide for annual base salary of $240,000 pro rated for calendar year 2001 and increasing thereafter by $20,000 per annum. In addition, the agreements provide for an annual bonus of $60,000 for calendar year 2001 and increasing thereafter by $60,000 per annum. On September 1, 2001 the Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with its Vice President - Manufacturing. The employment agreement provides for annual base salary of $144,000 pro rated for calendar year 2001 and increasing by $16,000 for calendar year 2002, and increasing thereafter by $30,000 per annum. In addition, the agreement provides for annual bonuses of $25,000, $40,000 and $50,000 for calendar years 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. At March 31, 2002 amounts owing under these employment agreements aggregating approximately $633,000 were settled through the issuance of 448,865 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $.01. On March 20, 2003, 130,000 of these warrants were exercised and on September 26, 2003, another 50,000 of these warrants were exercised. On April 1, 2004, the balance of 268,865 warrants were exercised.

Effective March 31, 2002 the agreements were terminated and the officers resigned from the Company. Simultaneously, Ice executed employment agreements with the individuals in the name of Ice with the same terms as previously executed and the individuals became officers of Ice. In 2003 and 2002, these individuals contributed $240,000 and $720,000 respectively of accrued compensation to Ice's capital and agreed to forgo payment of all future monies under their employment agreement until certain board-discretionary performance criteria have been realized.

The Company may pay all compensation under these agreements either in cash or common stock as determined by the Board of Directors. In connection with these agreements, the Company granted 450,000 options at $5.00 per share. The term of the options granted shall be for a period of 10 years and vest immediately. These options were exchanged for a 28% interest in Ice in March 2002. (see note A)

On March 31, 2003, the Company issued 148,387 shares of common stock at fair market value to the officers of Ice in exchange for approximately $122,000 owed to them for services performed for Ice. These shares were issued under the Business Consultants Stock Plan.

Note J - Management Agreement

On February 20, 2004 the company entered into an agreement with a management-consulting firm to assist the company in executing a business plan to commercialize and produce a full terrain vehicle. Upon execution of the agreement, the company granted 15,306 shares of common stock at fair market value in settlement of $75,000 incurred on January 31, 2004. The February 20th agreement was terminated and replaced with a new agreement effective June 30th whereby the management consulting firm will furnish individuals to serve as the company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer and chairman of its board of directors as well as continuing to provide all of the business consulting and technical services provided under the February 20th agreement. As under the February 20th agreement, the June 30th agreement provides that no payments of any kind, stock, warrants or options will be made to the individuals furnished by the management consulting firm but all payments, stock issuances, warrants or options will be made by the company directly to the management consulting firm. The June 30th agreement is for an initial term of 24 months and will be renewed for additional 24 month periods unless either party provides notice to the other at least sixty days prior to the end of the term. Under the agreement, the company will pay the management consulting firm $50,000 (payable in the company's discretion, in stock under Business Consultants Plan or cash), plus 20,000 warrants exercisable at $.01 per share on a monthly basis. Upon the happening of a revenue producing event, the company will grant 40,000 warrants per month, exercisable at $.01 per share. Under the agreement, the company is obligated to grant warrants exercisable at $.01 per share based upon a formula if the closing bid price of the company's common stock is equal to or greater than $5.00 per share.

However, the total number of warrants issuable under the formula is capped at 2,250,000. In connection with this obligation, the company granted 500,000 warrants during the first quarter of fiscal 2004 as a result of the stock price exceeding $5.00 per share. Under the formula, the company may be obligated to grant additional warrants under the agreement's term at which time they will be valued. If the calculation were performed as of December 31, 2004, the company would have had to grant an additional 245,000 warrants. Pursuant to the agreement, the company granted 200,000 warrants on August 20, 2004. The agreement provides for additional success and other fees payable in warrants. In connection therewith, the company may recognize significant charges in the future if and when such events occur.

In fiscal 2004, the company issued a total of 940,000 warrants and a total of 107,499 common shares to the management consulting firm under both agreements. The company recorded a charge of approximately $5,496,000 for these warrants for the year ending December 31, 2004.

 

Note k - subsequent event

During the first quarter ended March 5, 2005, the company issued at fair market value an additional 60,000 warrants and 29,832 shares to the management consulting firm in accordance with the June 30 agreement.

The Company raised approximately $190,000 through the sale of 47,500 shares of its Class A Preferred Stock at $4.00 per share in the first quarter of 2005.

Year 2004 Options

               No options were granted in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 under the company's 1998 Stock Option Plan.

1998 Stock Option Plan

               On December 1, 1997, the company's Board of Directors adopted the company's 1998 Stock Option Plan pursuant to which officers, directors, key employees and/or consultants of the company may be granted incentive stock options and/or non-qualified stock options to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the company's common stock. On May 27, 1998, the company's shareholders approved the 1998 Stock Option Plan. On December 17, 1998, the company registered the shares reserved for issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan under the Securities Act of 1933.

               With respect to incentive stock options, the Plan provides that the exercise price of each such option must be at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date that such option is granted (110% of fair market value in the case of shareholders who, at the time the option is granted, own more than 10% of the total outstanding common stock), and requires that all such options have an expiration date not later than the date which is one day before the tenth anniversary of the date of the grant of such options (or the fifth anniversary of the date of grant in the case of 10% shareholders). However, in the event that the option holder ceases to be an employee of the company, such option holder's incentive options immediately terminate. Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date(s) of grant, for which incentive stock options are first exercisable by an option holder during any one calendar year cannot exceed $100,000.

               With respect to non-qualified stock options, the Plan permits the exercise price to be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted and permits Board discretion with respect to the establishment of the terms of such options. Unless the Board otherwise determines, in the event that the option holder ceases to be an employee of the company, such option holder's non-qualified options immediately terminate.

               As of December 31, 2004, 1,673,895 options have been issued to directors and officers at an average exercise price of $5.00 per share and 50,000 options have been issued to a key consultant at an exercise price of $2.26 per share.

Business Consultants Stock Plan

               On June 2, 1999, the company created a Business Consultants Stock Plan and reserved 200,000 shares of the company's $.01 par value common stock, which may be issued from time to time to business consultants and advisors who provide bona fide services to the company, provided that such services are not in connection with the offer or sale of securities of the company in a capital raising transaction and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the company's securities.

               With respect to the actual issuance by the company of shares for services rendered in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the per share value of such shares is equal to the closing price for the company's common stock on a date which is the date of the event triggering the issuance of the shares or is one business day immediately prior to such date as quoted in the over-the-counter market (OTCBB).


               The Company registered the 200,000 shares reserved for issuance under the Business Consultants Stock Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Registration Statement became effective on June 11, 1999. By virtue of such registration, business consultants, who are not affiliates of the Company, may immediately sell such shares in open market transactions without securities law restrictions.

               On September 12, 2000, October 11, 2001 and December 13, 2001, the Board authorized an increase in the number of shares under the Plan by 200,000, 200,000, and 100,000 respectively. The company undertook to register the issuance of such shares under cover of Securities and Exchange Commission Form S-8, and such registration statements became effective on October 5, 2000, November 7, 2001 and December 21, 2001, respectively.

               On January 24, 2002, the shareholders approved the number of shares reserved under the Plan by 800,000 and on September 30, 2002 and December 20, 2002, the Board authorized an increase in the number of shares reserved under the Plan by 250,000 and 250,000 respectively. The company undertook to register the issuance of such shares under cover of Securities and Exchange Commission Form S-8, and such registration statements became effective on February 1, 2002, November 12, 2002 and January 22, 2003, respectively.

               On May 8, 2003 and October 2, 2003 the Board authorized an increase in the number of shares reserved under the Plan by 350,000 shares and 250,000 shares, respectively. The company undertook to register the issuance of such shares under the cover of Securities and Exchange Commission Form S-8 and such registration statements became effective on May 23, 2003 and November 26, 2003 respectively.

               On April 20, 2004, the Board authorized an increase in the number of shares issued under the Plan by 2,500,000 shares. The company undertook to register the issuance of such shares under cover of Securities and Exchange Commission Form S-8 and such registration statement became effective on April 20, 2004.

               For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004, the company issued 469,883 shares of common stock under the Business Consultants Stock Plan.

Nonmanagement Directors Plan

               On October 1, 2004, the Board of Directors approved a Nonmanagement Directors Plan pursuant to which each nonmanagement director is entitled to receive, on an annual basis for services rendered as a director, warrants to purchase 12,000 shares of the company's common stock at $.01 per share. In addition, the chairman of the audit committee is entitled to receive, on an annual basis for services rendered as chairman, additional warrants for 5,000 shares of the company's common stock at $.01 per share.

                No director is eligible to receive warrants if he attends less than 75% of the meetings of the Board and any committee(s) of which he is a member.

                For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the company issued 53,000 warrants under the Nonmanagement Directors Plan.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT


Security Ownership - Common Stock

The following table presents information concerning the beneficial ownership of the shares of our common stock as of December 31, 2004 by:

o

each person who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock;

o

each of our directors;

o

each of our named executive officers; and

o

all of our directors and executive officers as a group.

The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned are based on 29,043,653 shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2004. Beneficial ownership is determined under rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shares of common stock subject to options that are exercisable on December 31, 2004 or exercisable within 60 days thereafter are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options for the purpose of calculating the number of shares beneficially owned and the percentage ownership of that person, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of calculating the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table, these persons have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

Item 12.      CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Certain Transactions

During the ten plus years prior to the incorporation of the company, Vernon E., Keith E. and James A. Gleasman invented and patented numerous improvements relating to drive mechanisms for tracked vehicles, transmissions, hydraulic pumps/motors, a unique form of gearing, universal joints, and constant velocity joints as disclosed in such patents. Upon the company's incorporation, the Gleasmans assigned all their right, title and interest to and in such inventions and patents to the company in exchange for the issuance of 16,464,400 shares of the company's common stock and the agreement of the company to pay the Gleasmans the sum of $365,000 for expenditures in the development of these inventions and products, the Gleasmans having agreed to waive and release the company from payment of any other expenses that they incurred in the development of these inventions and products. The Board of Directors of the company concluded that the value of the inventions, patents and patent applications assigned to the company, as well as the value of the services rendered, had a value in excess of the par value of the number of shares transferred to the assignors and service providers, respectively. Shares issued are fully paid and nonassessable.

               On April 15, 1997, the company issued 1,000,000 shares of its $.01 par value common stock to certain principals of LT Lawrence & Co., Inc. as compensation pursuant to the terms of a nonexclusive financial consulting agreement entered into February 11, 1997. LT Lawrence & Co., Inc. dissolved in March 1998, although the principals still hold the shares which were issued to them less any shares they may have sold. As a result of the same transaction, there are 125,000 outstanding consulting warrants which may be exercised if and when the company has an initial public offering of its common stock.

               On June 29, 2000, the company announced that it had granted an exclusive, world-wide license of all its automotive technology to Variable Gear, LLC for the aeronautical and marine markets. Variable Gear will pay the company 4% royalties for 7 years after which the company can repurchase the license. Variable Gear is owned 51% by Robert C. Horton, Chairman and CEO of Ultrafab, Inc. and a company shareholder. The company owns the remaining 49%.

               During 2001, the company borrowed $28,000 from James A. Gleasman. This loan is payable on demand and bears no interest.

               Other than as described herein, there have been no material transactions, series of similar transactions or currently proposed transactions to which the company was or is a party, in which the amount invested exceeds $60,000 and in which any director or executive officer, or any security holder who is known to the company to own of record or beneficially more than five percent of the company's common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had a material interest.

Pre-Approval of Policies and Procedures

Article II of our Audit Committee Charter, as amended, specifically provides that the Audit Committee must pre-approve all auditing and legally permissible non-auditing services to be performed by the company's registered public accounting firm. In accordance with such mandate, at a meeting held on January 15, 2003, the Audit Committee established a set of procedures governing the pre-approval process. Under the procedure, for each fiscal year, the Committee first shall determine the general nature and scope of the audit, audit-related, tax and other legally permissible non-audit services to be performed by the company's registered accounting firm. Prior to the performance of any services, the Committee shall require such firm to submit to the Committee one or more engagement letter(s) delineating specific audit, audit-related, tax and other legally permissible non-audit services to be rendered (together with a schedule of fees with respect to each of such services). Upon receipt of such engagement letter(s), the Committee shall review and approve such engagement letter(s) in advance of the performance of any such services, including the specific advance approval of fees in connection with each of such services. Upon approval and execution of each of such engagement letter(s) by the Committee, the registered public accounting firm shall perform such pre-approved services in accordance with the terms and conditions of each engagement letter and shall not engage in any other services unless each of said services, if any, shall have been specifically approved (including the specific approval of all fees associated therewith) by the Audit Committee in advance of the rendering any such service.


Audit -Committee Approval

The Audit Committee pre-approved 100% of the services rendered by Eisner LLP in accordance with such Committee's Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures.

 

 

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

               This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the company and its plans for future operation as well as management's beliefs and assumptions. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions ("Future Factors") which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.


               The Future Factors that may affect the company, its plans for its future operations and performance and results of the company's future business include, but are not limited to, the following:

     
 

a.

the company's ability to raise or borrow significant capital to fund its business plan;

     
 

b.

the company's ability to enter into collaborative joint working arrangements, formal joint venture arrangements and/or licensing arrangements with domestic and/or foreign governments, automotive industry manufacturers and suppliers to manufacture and promote the company's inventions;

     
 

c.

industry and consumer acceptance of the company's inventions;

     
 

d.

the level of competition and resistance in the automotive and related industries;

f.

the strength of the U.S. dollar against currencies of other countries where the company may operate, as well as cross-currencies between the company's future operations outside of the U.S. and other countries with whom it transacts business.

     

               Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The Company does not intend to update forward-looking statements.
