UNIVERSAL LIFE HOLDING CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
ORGANIZATION
Universal Life Holding Corporation (The Company) is a profit corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Illinois on August 13, 1964 for the
purpose of residential rental property management as well as other real estate
and investment activities. The Company's business activities have virtually
ceased since 1992 and , as a result, the Company approved a plan of liquidation
on May 25, 1995. Consequently, the Company's financial statements are presented
on a liquidation basis.
LIQUIDATION BASIS ACCOUNTING
The liquidation basis of accounting presents assets at amounts expected to be
realized in liquidation and liabilities at amounts expected to be paid to
creditors. This basis of accounting is considered to be generally accepted
accounting principles for companies in liquidation or for which liquidation
appears imminent. The Company does not intend to declare or pay any liquidating
dividends. Tax law requires gains from liquidation to be taxed on distribution.
The Company did not have any such gains in 1997.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
In 1997 the Company had no formal business operations.
ADVERTISING EXPENSE
The Company recognizes advertising expenses in accordance with Statement of
Position ("SOP") 93-7 "Reporting on Advertising Costs." As such, the Company
expenses the costs of producing advertisements at the time production occurs,
and expenses the cost of communicating advertising in the period in which the
advertising space or airtime is used. The Company does not have any advertising
costs in 1997.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is stated at a liquidated fair market value expected to
be realized in liquidation. No depreciation is recognized under liquidation
basis accounting. Costs for routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as
incurred and gains and losses on the disposal of assets are recognized in the
period such disposals occur. The Company did not own any property or equipment
in 1997.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INCOME TAXES
The Company files its tax return with the Internal Revenue Service as a C
Corporation. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying statutory tax
rates to future years' differences between the tax bases and financial reporting
amounts of assets and liabilities. Loss carryforwards, if any, expire fifteen
years following the tax year end in which they occur. Due to the plan of
liquidation no recognition of tax asset benefits has been recorded. Should the
company engage in any activities that result in the earnings of taxable
revenues, tax loss carryforwards of $1,377,798 from 1995 and prior years will be
utilized if still available.
USE OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires that management make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in liquidation and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets in liquidation
during the respective reporting period. Actual results could vary from these
estimates and assumptions.
CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company
maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, the balances
of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company did not
have any cash or cash equivalents on March 31, 1997. The Company's reliance on
its shareholders to finance the administrative and legal costs necessary to
maintain the Company's status with the Securities and Exchange Commission
represent a concentration of risk should the shareholders be unable to provide
or create the funding necessary.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
As per Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), Earnings Per Share, standards for computing and
presenting earnings per share (EPS) applies to publicly held common stock or
potential common stock. It requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS
on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital
structures. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common
stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. For the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 the number of shares considered to be outstanding is computed as
actual number of shares of the Company outstanding during that period. The
average number of shares outstanding for the full period being reported upon has
been computed including other appropriate adjustments made to deal with changes
in numbers of shares issued during the period. Diluted EPS were not computed as
the Company's capital structure is not complex, having no dilutive instruments
outstanding as of the date of the financial statements.
2. Officers' Compensation
The Company's day to day activities are managed by a certain
officer/shareholder, who contributed his time on the Company's behalf without
compensation in either cash or stock. No value for these services has been
determined or recorded on the accompanying financial statements
3. Contingencies
The Company's corporate counsel has confirmed that as of the date of the
financial statements, the Company is not involved in any lawsuits nor is there
any pending litigation.
4. Subsequent Events
Management of the Company is currently seeking a private corporation for a
possible reverse merger acquisition. As of the date of these financial
statements, no suitable corporation has been found. Management, however,
continues in its efforts to bring the Company current with regard to its
Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
The Company's largest shareholder is financing the professional fees and
administrative costs necessary for the Company to achieve compliance with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service and any state
and local jurisdictions.

Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to
accept only two-digit entries in the date code field and cannot reliably
distinguish dates beginning January 1, 2000 from dates prior to the year 2000.
Many companies' software and computer systems may need to be upgraded or
replaced in order to correctly process dates beginning in 2000 and to comply
with the "Year 2000" requirements. The Company has reviewed its' internal
programs and has determined that there are no significant Year 2000 issues
within the Company's systems or services. The Company has completed
modifications to its internal systems to attempt to ensure Year 2000 compliance.
The costs of these modifications was not material and involved a reallocation of
internal resources rather than incremental expenditures. In addition, the
Company utilizes third party hardware, software and services that may not be
Year 2000 compliant. Although the Company believes that its' software and the
hardware and software provided by third parties is Year 2000 compliant, the
Company may be wrong. If the Company is wrong, it could face unexpected expenses
to resolve any related issues and any unexpected interruptions could be harmful
to its business.
