BUSINESS INTRODUCTION Environmental Safeguards, Inc. is engaged in the development, production and sale of environmental recycling technologies and services to waste management companies, oil and gas industry participants and other industrial customers, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries National Fuel & Energy, Inc. ("NFE") and OnSite Technology, L.L.C. ("OnSite"). As of March 2002, OnSite operates internationally through its wholly-owned subsidiaries OST Equipment Leasing L.L.C and OnSite Mexico, L.L.C., and its 50%-owned subsidiary, OnSite Arabia, Inc.. OnSite is in the final stages of closing down the OnSite Colombia, Inc. and OnSite Environmental UK Ltd. subsidiaries, and has completely closed-down its OnSite Venezuela, Inc. subsidiary. OnSite has recently begun the close-down process for its wholly-owned subsidiary OST Ambiental S de RL de CV. The environmental recycling services that we provide involve the removal of hydrocarbon contaminants and valuable drilling fluids from soil using indirect thermal desorption recycling technology. We provide these services on-site or at the central location to which the customer hauls the contaminated materials. HISTORY We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in December 1985, under the name of Cape Cod Investment Company. In December 1986, our name was changed to Cape Cod Ventures, Inc. In August 1987, an initial public offering was completed for 4,148,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.001 per share pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Regulation A. In May 1993, an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization was executed with National Fuel & Energy, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, providing for the acquisition of NFE in exchange for shares of our Common Stock. In connection with the reorganization, our name was changed to Environmental Safeguards, Inc., and NFE became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In January 1995, we entered into an agreement with Parker Drilling Company ("Parker"), a Delaware corporation, granting Parker exclusive marketing rights to our proprietary processes for on-site recycling services in connection with drill cuttings at oil and gas drilling sites throughout the United States and in certain foreign countries. In August 1995, we expanded our agreement with Parker by forming OnSite, a joint company between NFE and Parker, in which NFE and Parker each owned 50%. In December 1997, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Parker which provided for our acquisition, through NFE, of Parker's 50% equity interest in OnSite resulting in NFE becoming the owner of 100% of the equity interest in OnSite. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we paid $8,000,000 for the 50% equity interest and repaid a $3,000,000 loan that had been made to us by an affiliate of Parker. As part of the transaction, Parker returned to us unexercised warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of our Common Stock. Our sources of funds to effect the acquisition included the sale of $8,000,000 of new Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock to an investor group consisting of Cahill, Warnock Strategic Partners Fund, L.P., Strategic Associates, L.P., Newpark Resources, Inc. and James H. Stone, who is the Chairman of Stone Energy Corporation and a secured loan of $6,000,000 from the same investor group ("Loan Agreement"). Pursuant to the financing, David L. Warnock, a member of Cahill, Warnock & Co., L.L.C. and general partner of Cahill, Warnock Strategic Partners Fund, L.P., was appointed as one of our Directors. BUSINESS ACTIVITIES General: Substantially all of our activities are conducted through OnSite, which is engaged in the development and production of recycling technology and the sale of environmental recycling services. OnSite owns the technologies included in its Indirect Thermal Desorption ("ITD") units, and the proprietary 2 processes for on-site recycling of hydrocarbon contaminated soil. To date, the environmental recycling services we have provided have involved the removal of petroleum contaminants from soil using our ITD units. Our ITD units are easily transported processing systems which produce clean soil from contaminated soil while recycling the hydrocarbons. Our customers consist primarily of large corporations in the energy industry that have responded to the changing regulatory climate with respect to soil and other environmental contamination and waste management companies in the business of offering waste disposal services. The primary services we offer involve the recycling of soil contaminated by oil-based drilling fluids, fuel spills, leakage at storage tanks, refinery wastes, ship sludges, industrial wastes and other sources of hydrocarbon contamination, as well as the recycling of industrial waste. To recycle the contaminated soil, we utilize our ITD units consisting of (i) an indirect thermal desorption unit wherein the hydrocarbon contaminated soil is indirectly heated, thereby causing the hydrocarbon contamination to vaporize; and (ii) a condensation process system, which causes the hydrocarbon vapor to condense to a liquid, or an afterburner or thermal oxidizer, which incinerates the hydrocarbon vapor resulting in a safe and clean process. Our ITD units are mobile, and thus, contaminated soil can be recycled at the site where the contaminated soil is located. We do not haul or dispose of soil or contaminants away from the customer's location. As of March 2002, we owned five ITD units outright, and had a 50% interest in two additional units in our 50%-owned subsidiary OnSite Arabia, Inc. Customers: Our customers consist primarily of large oil and gas industry participants, waste management companies and other industrial companies. Through OnSite, we typically submit a bid for a project based on the costs of moving the equipment to the location, the estimated charges for labor and fuel, the nature and extent of the contamination, the type and moisture content of the soil and the estimated processing time. Alternatively, we may submit a bid for the outright sale of one or more ITD units. Once a contract has been awarded, equipment is moved to the client's desired location. Indirect Thermal Recycling: The primary services we offer involve: (i) the recycling of soil contaminated by oil-based drilling mud, fuel spills, leakage at storage tanks, leakage from pipelines; (ii) the recycling of hydrocarbon contamination at settling ponds, oil and gas exploration sites, refineries, petrochemical facilities, abandoned production fields, Department of Defense installations, ships and dock facilities and other similar sites; (iii) the recycling of valuable drilling fluids which have been captured in soil and drilling muds during the drilling process; and (iv) recycling of industrial wastes. To date we have employed our ITD units to provide recycling services to oil and gas industry drilling operations, tank farms and compressor sites, industrial waste disposal facilities and oilfield waste disposal facilities. This process is known as "indirect thermal desorption" because it reverses the contamination process and removes the hydrocarbons from the soil and discharges the contaminants previously absorbed without direct contact of the soil to a flame. Our ITD units, which are portable equipment, utilize a rotating, heat-jacketed trundle to vaporize hydrocarbons from contaminated soil or other contaminated materials. Our ITD units consist of two principal components: (i) an indirect thermal desorption unit wherein the hydrocarbon contaminated soil is indirectly heated, thereby causing the hydrocarbon contamination to vaporize; and (ii) a condensation process system, which causes the hydrocarbon vapor to condense to a liquid for recycling. As an alternative to the condensing system, the vapor can be passed through an afterburner or thermal oxidizer, which destroys the hydrocarbon vapors. The heat exchange system is comprised of a large fabricated steel shell which houses a rotating trundle. Hot gases pass through the shell and around the outside surface of the trundle. Hydrocarbon contaminated soil, or other contaminated materials, are loaded into the elevated end of the trundle by a conveyor belt or a front-end loader. As the trundle revolves, the soil is agitated by internal lifts and oars as it passes through the inside of the trundle by gravity flow and is heated to temperatures from 200 to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. At these temperatures, the hydrocarbon contaminants in the soil transform into vapors, which are vacuumed out of the heat exchange system into the condensing system, afterburner or the thermal oxidizer. The clean soil then drops out of the discharge door at the low end of the trundle and is passed through an enclosed conveyor for re-hydration before final discharge. Soil samples are tested at the end of the process to confirm that the 3 contaminants have been removed and the soil condition is within an acceptable range. The soil is then returned to its original location or such other location specified by the customer. The hydrocarbon vapors removed from the heat exchange system by vacuum are passed through a fan-cooled condensing system. The vapors are condensed into liquids and collected in storage tanks and can then be recycled or disposed, depending on the nature of the contaminant, the needs of the customer and the specifications required for reuse. To date, our ITD units have demonstrated their ability to process up to 192 tons of contaminated soil in a 24-hour period with 30% hydrocarbon saturation. However, the processing capacity varies significantly depending on the moisture content, degree of contamination, soil type, contamination type and the recycling required. There can be no assurance that our ITD units will continue to perform at this level, or that this performance will continue to be competitive with other technologies available in the market. Recycling of Hydrocarbon Contaminants: We have developed proprietary processes that are embodied in the condensation process system unit, one of the two principal components of our ITD units. Within this component the hydrocarbon contaminant(s) are condensed from the vapor state created in the dryer unit back into a liquid state via the proprietary processes and placed into storage for recycling back to the client. This allows the client to realize actual savings from its ability to re-utilize the hydrocarbons. We believe that this ability to recycle the hydrocarbon contaminant(s) is an important competitive advantage, as compared to the bioremediation, direct burn or "dig and haul" remediation technologies. Manufacturing of ITD Units: We have historically contracted with outside fabricators to manufacture our ITD units. Currently, we have no ITD units under construction by fabricators. EXISTING CONTRACTS FOR OPERATIONS We operate with our own trained personnel through wholly or partially-owned subsidiaries as discussed above. As of March 2002, five of our ITD units are located in the United States and two in the United Arab Emirates. We are currently operating three ITD units in Mexico under an Operations and Maintenance contract for the party that purchased the three ITD units from us. COMPETITION There are many companies that currently dispose of hazardous and industrial wastes and remediate or clean contaminated sites. Such companies are continually attempting to develop new and improved products and services. Other companies utilize competing technologies and techniques in an attempt to provide more economical or superior remediation services. Many of our competitors are established companies with substantially greater capital resources, larger research and development staffs and facilities and greater marketing capabilities than us. There can be no assurance that we will be competitive in the recycling industry in the future. We obtain our contracts through competitive bidding and are in direct competition with companies providing alternative means of, and utilizing alternative technologies for, remediating environmental problems. The most significant competition comes from companies utilizing "dig and haul," direct burn, and bioremediation technology to remediate soil contamination. Companies utilizing the "dig and haul" method generally transport the contaminated soil to other facilities for processing. We believe that the technology we utilize is competitive because our equipment is mobile, and thus, contaminated soil can be processed on location. The waste processing, recycling businesses are, to a large extent, dependent upon and constrained by the costs and regulations associated with transporting such wastes. More importantly, our recycling process addresses the latent liability associated with the contamination at the site. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop or acquire such technology and skill or that, if obtained, will be competitive with other alternatives available in the market. Companies utilizing direct burn technology use direct heat sources to incinerate contaminants found in the soil. Due to the closed nature of the heat transfer systems of our ITD units, we can safely handle much higher concentrations of contaminants than conventional direct burn methods. Conventional direct burn 4 methods process material with maximum contamination levels of 3% to 4% while our ITD units have processed materials with contamination levels as high as 40%. In addition, the portable nature of our ITD units permit them to be located at the contamination site. Our ITD units also permit the customer to recapture certain valuable liquids which are otherwise destroyed. We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing significantly higher operational service and a significantly higher value-added result for our clients for the recycling of hydrocarbons from soils and other mediums, and the subsequent reclaiming of the hydrocarbons into liquids for customer recycling or resale. For example, some of the design features of our ITD unit, which we believe provide service-level advantages, include: Recycling: Our ITD units remove 99.9% of hydrocarbon contaminants from the waste-stream soil, effectively eliminating the client's latent liability. Our ITD units transform waste streams into value for our clients by reclaiming valuable hydrocarbons for client recycling or resale. For example, our equipment has reclaimed millions of gallons of diesel oil while processing drill cuttings for major oil and gas participants. Tonnage: Our ITD units have proven processing capability of 1 to 10 tons per hour with up to 30% hydrocarbon-saturation in the soil. Some competitors are capable of similar processing speeds, but at lower hydrocarbon-saturation levels, resulting in throughput advantages for us. Portability: Our ITD units are built on two trailer beds for easier transport to our client's location, avoiding costly hauling expenses of contaminated materials to a central location. In addition, the design of our ITD units permit rig-down and/or rig-up in less than a day. Some competitive units are much less transportable, or not transportable at all. Wide Range of Hydrocarbons Treated: Our ITD units operate at low temperatures (200 degrees Fahrenheit), high temperatures (1,000 degrees Fahrenheit), and anywhere in between, thereby enabling the processing of wide ranges of hydrocarbon contaminants encountered at a client's site including both oil and gas and industrial waste. We believe that competition in the industry is concentrated in remediation services, whereas our ITD technology is capable of recycling valuable hydrocarbons. Further, we believe that our pricing policies are competitive. No assurance, however, can be given that we will be able to successfully compete with other companies or alternative technologies. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS -- COST OF COMPLIANCE We render services in connection with the recycling and disposal of various wastes. Federal, state and local laws and regulations have been enacted regulating the handling and disposal of wastes and creating liability for certain environmental contamination caused by such waste. Environmental laws regulate, among other things, the transportation, storage, handling and disposal of waste. Governmental regulations govern matters such as the disposal of residual chemical wastes, operating procedures, waste water discharges, air emissions, fire protection, worker and community right-to-know, and emergency response plans. Moreover, so-called "toxic tort" litigation has increased markedly in recent years as persons allegedly injured by chemical contamination seek recovery for personal injuries or property damage. These legal developments present a risk of liability should we be deemed to be responsible for contamination or pollution caused or increased by any evaluation, remediation or cleanup effort conducted by us, or for an accident which occurs in the course of such remediation or cleanup effort. There can be no assurance that our policy of establishing and implementing proper procedures for complying with environmental regulations will be effective at preventing us from incurring a substantial environmental liability. If we were to incur a substantial uninsured liability for environmental damage, our financial condition could be materially adversely affected. We presently have the ability to deliver soil recycling services that meet applicable federal and state standards for the delivery of its services, and for the level of contaminant removal. The government can, however, impose new standards. If new regulations were to be imposed, we may not be able to comply in either the delivery of our services, or in the level of contaminant removal from the soil. Operating permits are generally required by federal and state environmental agencies for the operation of our ITD units. Most of these permits must be renewed periodically and the governmental authorities involved 5 have the power, under various circumstances, to revoke, modify, or deny issuance or renewal of these permits. Site-related permits, however, are generally the responsibility of the client. EMPLOYEES We currently have 33 employees, 9 of whom are in domestic and international management or supervisory positions, including corporate and administrative functions. None of our employees are represented by a union. We consider our employee relations to be good.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in item 8 of this annual report, and our "Forward-Looking Statements" which discusses certain limitations inherent in such statements. INFORMATION REGARDING AND FACTORS AFFECTING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS We are including the following cautionary statement in this Form 10-K to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements made by us, or on behalf of us. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts. Certain statements in this Form 10-K are forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and uncertainties are set forth below. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed to have a reasonable basis, including without limitation, our examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that our expectations, beliefs or projections will result, be achieved, or be accomplished. In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the following are important factors that, in our view, could cause material adverse affects on our financial condition and results of operations: our ability to secure contracts for our ITD units; our ability to attain widespread market acceptance of our technology; our ability to obtain acceptable forms and amounts of financing to fund planned expansion; the demand for, and price level of, our services; competitive factors; the actual useful life of our ITD Units; ability to mitigate concentration of business in a small number of customers; the evolving industry and technology standards; the ability to protect proprietary technology; the dependence on key personnel; the effect of business interruption due to political unrest; the foreign exchange fluctuation risk; and our ability to maintain acceptable utilization rates on our equipment. We are not obligated to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of future events or circumstances. OVERVIEW We are engaged in the development, production and sale of environmental recycling technologies and services. Substantially all of our technologies and services are provided through OnSite and we are devoting substantially all of our efforts to the development of markets for OnSite's services. We are currently providing recycling services to companies engaged in land-based oil and gas exploration and production, refining, waste management, and other industrial applications. Oil and gas exploration, refinery and other types of industrial activities, often produce significant quantities of petroleum-contaminated drill cuttings and waste, from which our Indirect Thermal Desorption ("ITD") process can extract and recover the hydrocarbons as re-useable or re-saleable liquids, and produce recycled soil compliant with environmental regulations. We have expanded the activities of OnSite to include use of ITD technology to address hydrocarbon contamination problems and hydrocarbon recycling and reclamation opportunities at heavy industrial, refining, petrochemical and waste management sites, as well as at Superfund, DOD and DOE sites. In December 1997, we acquired the remaining 50% interest in OnSite from Parker Drilling Co. ("Parker"), giving us complete control of the ITD technology owned by OnSite, and providing us with a wholly-owned operating subsidiary that forms the cornerstone of our future operations. Total purchase consideration in the OnSite acquisition was financed by us through a private placement of Convertible Preferred and Preferred Stock, combined with senior secured notes and warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock. We included OnSite's operating results in our statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997, as though the acquisition took place at the beginning of that year, and deducted as a separate line item the pre-acquisition earnings attributable to the former 50% owner of OnSite. 10 We have focused essentially all of our attention on our now wholly-owned business operations in OnSite. OnSite was formed, as a 50%-owned joint company with Parker, as a means for assembling the capital necessary to build and improve the ITD process and to generate market awareness and acceptance of ITD technology. During the period 1996-2000 a substantial portion of our revenues were generated from major international oil and gas industry participants in Latin America (Colombia, Venezuela and Mexico) as well as from other domestic and foreign industrial applications. As of March 2002 we have for the most part completed our foreign contract operations, and have in fact taken steps to close down certain of our foreign subsidiaries as outlined below. We are now concentrating our marketing efforts and resources on domestic downstream plants, manufacturing facilities and waste management facilities, where our proprietary equipment and process have a competitive advantage in waste minimization, and recycling/reuse of hazardous waste markets -- including industrial, petroleum and petro-chemical waste streams. Highlights of our foreign operations follow: OnSite Colombia, Inc. ("OSC"): In November 1996, we formed a 50%-owned joint company OSC to provide hydrocarbon contaminated soil recycling services to oil and gas industry participants operating in Colombia. Having completed contract operations in Colombia, we re-acquired the 50% minority ownership of OSC and subsequently initiated formal procedures to close-down OSC. As of March 2002 the close-down process was in its final stages. OnSite Venezuela, Inc. ("OSV"): In January 1998, we formed our 100% owned subsidiary OSV, and commenced operations to provide hydrocarbon contaminated soil recycling services to oil and gas industry participants operating in Venezuela. Following completion of contract operations in Venezuela, we initiated formal procedures to close-down OSV, and as of March 2002 the close-down was completed. OnSite Arabia, Inc. ("OSA"): In December 1998, we formed a 50%-owned joint company OSA to provide hydrocarbon contaminated soil recycling services to oil and gas industry participants operating in the Arabian Gulf region. OnSite Environmental UK, Ltd ("OSE"): In April 1999, we formed OSE, a wholly-owned subsidiary, for operations in Scotland. Having completed contract operations in Scotland, we initiated formal procedures to close-down OSE. As of March 2002 the close-down was in its final phases. OnSite Mexico LLC ("OSM"): In July 1999, we registered OSM, a wholly-owned subsidiary, for operations in Mexico. OST Ambiental S de RL de CV ("SRL"): In March 2001, we registered SRL, a wholly-owned subsidiary, for operations in Mexico. SRL has recently completed all operations and its close-down procedures are being initiated. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS -- YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 Summary. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we earned net income of $1,507,000 as compared to a 2000 net loss of $1,462,000. The $2,969,000 net income increase was primarily due to the gain on sale of three ITD units and certain licensing rights during the fourth quarter of 2001, partly offset by 57% lower equipment utilization during 2001. Additional information follows. Revenue and Gross Margin. Revenue of $2,987,000 for 2001 generated $559,000 negative gross margin as compared to revenue of $11,250,000 and gross margin of $5,219,000 in 2000. The decrease in revenue and gross margin was due to a substantial drop in ITD utilization during 2001, where on average we had 1.8 units in operation as compared to 4.2 units during 2000. Nearly 80% of the decreased utilization was due to the completion of contract operations in Colombia at the end of 2000. Selling, General and Administrative ("SGA") Expense. SGA expenses during 2001 were nearly 29% below the prior year level primarily due to the winding-down of contract operations in Colombia. 11 Amortization of Engineering Design and Technology. This represents the amortization of Acquired Engineering Design and Technology costs, an intangible asset related to the December 1997 acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in OnSite from Parker Drilling. The intangible asset is being amortized over an 8-year estimated economic life. Research & Development Costs ("R&D") Expense. The expense for 2001 is at the 2000 level, and reflects ongoing R&D improvements to our Series 6000 ITD system design. Interest Expense. During 2001, $839,000 of interest expense was incurred (including amortization of debt issuance costs of $344,000), compared to interest expense of $1,018,000 for 2000 (including amortization of debt issuance costs of $372,000). The $179,000 overall decrease in interest expense for 2001 was mainly due to lower interest rates during 2001, and to a lesser degree, to less amortization of debt issuance costs as noted above. Gain on Sale of Assets. In December 2001 we completed the sale of three ITD units along with certain licensing rights. No ITD units were sold in the prior year. Other Income (Expense). Other income is mainly composed of foreign currency translation gains. The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are measured as if the functional currency was the U.S. Dollar ("USD"). The re-measurement of local currencies into USD created favorable translation adjustments that were included in net income in each respective year 2001 and 2000. Income Taxes. Approximately half of the 2001 tax provision relates to state income tax effects, with the balance due to foreign income tax effects mainly in our Mexico subsidiaries. The tax provision in 2000 primarily related to foreign income tax effects in our Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico and Scotland subsidiaries. We incurred net operating losses ("NOLs") in the U.S. in recent years, some of which were used in 2001 to offset taxes on our 2001 taxable income. The balance of our NOLs may be used to offset taxable income reported in future periods. The NOLs have generated deferred tax assets, but due to uncertainties regarding the future realization of these assets, a valuation allowance has been provided for the full amount of the deferred tax assets. We are implementing tax planning strategies, which if successful, may result in our recognizing these deferred tax assets in future periods, which would result in significantly reduced effective tax rates. However, presently there can be no assurances that the NOLs will be utilized. Minority Interest. Minority interest for 2001 reflects our 50% minority partner's interest in the net loss of OnSite Colombia and OnSite Arabia. During 2000, minority interest reflects our 50% minority partner's interest in the net income of OnSite Colombia, partly offset by the net loss of OnSite Arabia. COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS -- YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999 Summary. For the year ended December 31, 2000, we incurred a net loss of $1,462,000 as compared to a 1999 net loss of $483,000. The $979,000 increase in net loss was primarily due to the sale of an ITD unit during the first quarter of 1999 (not repeated during 2000), 10% lower equipment utilization during 2000 and the cost of equipment relocations during the first quarter of 2000. Additional information follows. Revenue and Gross Margin. Revenue of $11.3 million for 2000 generated $5.2 million (46% of revenue) gross margin as compared to revenue of $13.5 million and gross margin of $7.3 million (54% of revenue) in 1999. The majority of the 2000 decrease in revenue was due to operating an average of 4.2 ITD units during 2000 as compared to an average of 4.6 in 1999, a reduction of 10%, combined with the sale of an ITD unit to a 50%-owned subsidiary during the first quarter of 1999 (not repeated during 2000). The 8% decrease in gross margin ratio was mainly due to the combination of increased ITD depreciation expense in 2000 (two additional ITDs compared with 1999) and transportation and customs duty expenses associated with movements of ITD units in and out of Latin America in the first quarter of 2000. Selling, General and Administrative ("SGA") Expense. SGA expenses were at about the same level as 1999, both in amount and by type of expense. The average number of management employees classified as SGA remained essentially the same in 2000 as with 1999. 12 Amortization of Engineering Design and Technology. Reflects the amortization of Engineering Design and Developed Technology costs, an intangible asset related to the December 1997 acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in OnSite from Parker Drilling. The intangible asset is being amortized over an 8-year estimated economic life. Research & Development Costs ("R&D") Expense. The expense for 2000, unchanged from 1999, reflects ongoing R&D improvements to our Series 6000 ITD system design. Interest Income. The reduction in interest income resulted from a lower average cash balance available for short term investment income during 2000. Interest Expense. During 2000, $1,018,000 of interest expense was incurred (including amortization of debt issuance costs of $372,000), compared to interest expense of $1,455,000 for 1999 (including amortization of debt issuance costs of $522,000, partly offset by $45,000 of interest capitalized in connection with the first quarter 1999 construction of ITD units). The $437,000 overall decrease in interest expense for 2000 was due to lower interest expense on two international leases in Colombia, lower amortization of debt issuance costs as noted above, and no interest capitalization in 2000, as compared to $45,000 in 1999. Other Income (Expense). Other income is mainly composed of foreign currency translation gains. The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are measured as if the functional currency were the U.S. Dollar ("USD"). The re-measurement of local currencies into USD created favorable translation adjustments which were included in net income in each respective year 2000 and 1999. Income Taxes. The tax provision primarily relates to foreign income tax effects in our Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico and Scotland subsidiaries in 2000, and in our Colombia, Scotland and Mexico subsidiaries in 1999. We have incurred net operating losses ("NOLs") in the U.S. in recent years, which may be used to offset taxable income reported in future periods. The NOLs and certain foreign tax credits associated with the taxes paid primarily in Colombia have generated deferred tax assets, but due to uncertainties regarding the future realization of these assets, a valuation allowance has been provided for the full amount of the deferred tax assets. We are implementing tax planning strategies, which if successful, may result in our recognizing these deferred tax assets in future periods, which would result in significantly reduced effective tax rates. However, presently there can be no assurances that the NOLs and foreign tax credits will be utilized. Minority (Interest) Income. Minority interest expense for 2000 reflects our 50% minority partner's interest in the net income of OnSite Colombia, partly offset by net loss of OnSite Arabia. During 1999, the minority interest expense reflects our 50% minority partner's interest in the net income of OnSite Colombia. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We currently have no significant commitments for capital expenditures. Since our inception, we have expended a significant portion of our resources to develop markets and industry awareness of our ITD recycling process technology. Our efforts have been focused primarily on hydrocarbon soil contamination inherent in oil and gas exploration and downstream activities. Our efforts to develop markets and produce equipment have required significant amounts of capital, including long-term debt secured by our ITD units and related ITD technology. In December 2001, we completed the sale of three of our ITD units along with certain licensing rights, and utilized the bulk of the proceeds from the sale to retire our senior debt. With the exception of this sale, we have incurred recurring net losses and have been dependent on revenue from a limited customer base to provide cash flows. We completed our most significant service contract in December 2000 and during 2001 have been exploring ways to replace that revenue. During 2001 we've experienced a continued tightening of cash reserves and prior to repaying our senior debt in December 2001, we took actions to delay payments on that debt. Details of amounts deferred are described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in item 8 of this annual report, and as discussed below. We are currently seeking to obtain service contracts in our served markets and are considering strategic alternatives including the possible additional sale of certain of our assets. To the extent our cash reserves and 13 cash flows from operations are insufficient to meet future cash requirements, we will need to successfully raise funds through an equity infusion, the issuance of debt securities or the sale of ITD units. Financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Further, the sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders. Our independent accountants PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP have provided us their report which sets forth factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our viability as a going concern is dependent on increased utilization of our ITD units, and the achievement of a sustaining level of profitability. There can be no assurances, however, that we will increase ITD utilization or become sufficiently profitable in a time frame necessary to meet our obligations. We have evaluated the carrying value of long-lived assets, including associated intangibles. We performed an evaluation of recoverability by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the assets to their carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow is required. Given the homogeneous nature and geographic deployment flexibility of our assets, and based upon this evaluation by us, impairment of our long-lived assets has not been deemed necessary. The functional currency of our foreign operations is the U.S. dollar because customer invoicing, customer receivables, imported equipment and many of the operating cost factors are denominated in U.S. dollars. We plan to continue to implement the same approach to minimize our risks associated with foreign exchange fluctuation and its affect on our profitability. ACCOUNTING MATTERS In June 1998 and June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities", respectively. These statements establish accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 also require that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We do not currently hold derivative instruments or engage in hedging activities and, accordingly, these standards do not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. In addition, companies are required to review goodwill and intangible assets reported in connection with prior acquisitions, possibly desegregate and report separately previously identified intangible assets, and in certain cases reclassify certain intangible assets into goodwill. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and requires that goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment. SFAS No. 142 also requires that the useful lives of previously recognized intangible assets be reassessed and the remaining amortization periods be adjusted accordingly. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and affects all goodwill and other intangible assets recorded on a company's balance sheet at that date, regardless of when the assets were initially recorded. The effects of implementation of SFAS No. 142 on our results of operations or financial position has not yet been determined. SFAS No. 142 may require that we obtain annual independent appraisal of acquired engineering design and technology costs, reported in the accompanying December 31, 2001 balance sheet with a remaining unamortized carrying value of $1,610,000. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations". SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2001. We believe its adoption is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position. 14 In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The provisions of this statement provide a single accounting model for impairment of long-lived assets. We believe its adoption is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND CHOICES Preparation of financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires us to make choices between acceptable methods of accounting and to make estimates of future events to determine the value we report for certain assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the value we report for revenues and expenses in a period covered by our financial statements. While we try to be as precise as possible in making these estimates, many of them are subjective in nature and involve matters of judgement. We believe the most subjective and material estimates in our financial statements are the reserve, if any, which we report for accounts receivable, the amount of our deferred taxes and our accrued warranty costs. Accounts Receivable. When an account receivable is considered impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows or the fair value of collateral. Impairment losses (recoveries) are included in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Deferred Taxes. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred income tax assets to an amount that we believe to be realizable under the "more-likely-than-not" recognition criteria. While we consider future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance, in the future we may change our estimate of the amount of the deferred income tax assets that would "more-likely-than-not" be realized, resulting in an adjustment to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowance that would either increase or decrease, as applicable, reported net income in the period. Accrued Warranty and Other Contingent Costs. We record an accrual for product warranty and other contingencies when estimated future expenditures associated with such contingencies become probable, and the amounts can reasonably be estimated. However, new information may become available, or circumstances (such as applicable laws and regulations) may change, thereby resulting in an increase or decrease in the amount required to be accrued for such matters (and therefore a decrease or increase in reported net income in the period of such change). We believe that all of the estimates we used to prepare our financial statements were reasonable at the time we made them, but circumstances may change requiring us to revise our estimates in ways that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations or financial position. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are subject to market risk related to fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar compared to certain foreign currencies. We currently have foreign subsidiaries which operate in Mexico and the Arabian Gulf region. However, the functional currency used by each of these operating units is the U.S. dollar. Substantial portions of these operating units' invoicing, customer receivables, imported equipment and many operating cost factors are denominated in dollars. We attempt to maintain a balance between assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, however, such currency levels are generally not significant. These factors serve to mitigate the impact on our financial statements associated with foreign exchange fluctuations. A hypothetical 10% fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to the currencies of Mexico and the Arabian Gulf region would not have materially adversely affected our fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 financial position, results of operations or cash flows (regardless of the direction of the change in relation to the U.S. dollar). Our sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in revenue levels. While we are not a purchaser or producer of crude oil or related products, our customers to date include large multinational oil and gas producing companies which are directly impacted by the fluctuations in the price of crude oil. Decreases in the price of crude oil directly affect our current customers' cash flows and may 15 therefore affect our ability to collect receivables and our ability to generate repeat and new business. To a lesser extent, our historical customer base has included waste management companies and other industrial companies, whose fluctuations in business levels could also have an impact our ability to collect receivables and generate repeat and new business.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Environmental Safeguards, Inc. as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred losses from operations and has not generated sufficient business backlog. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

F-6 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Environmental Safeguards, Inc. (the "Company") provides environmental recycling services principally to oil and gas multi-nationals and to a lesser extent, waste management and other industrial companies, using proprietary Indirect Thermal Desorption ("ITD") technology. To date the primary service offered by the Company has been the remediation of soil contaminated by oil-based drill cuttings, refinery waste and industrial waste and the subsequent recovery of diesel and synthetic oils. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned or controlled subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates mainly involve the useful lives of property and equipment, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the realizability of accounts receivable. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development activities are expensed as incurred, including costs relating to patents or rights which may result from such expenditures. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is recognized at the time services are performed, or in the event of the sale of an ITD unit, when the sale is closed. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY COSTS The cost of shipping and delivery of ITD units for their initial use are included in the cost of the units and depreciated as a cost of services over the life of the units. The cost of subsequent shipments of individual units are charged directly to cost of service at the time of shipment. WARRANTY RESERVE During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company completed the sale of three of its ITD units and certain licensing rights (See Note 3). As part of the sale, the Company warranted those ITD units against defects in design and workmanship generally for one year, commencing from the time of delivery. A provision for estimated future costs relating to this warranty was recorded when the ITD units were sold. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions selected based upon management's assessment of the banks' financial stability. Balances periodically exceed the $100,000 federal depository insurance limit. The Company has not experienced any losses on deposits. Accounts receivable generally arise from sales of services to customers operating in the United States and Latin America. Collateral is generally not required for credit granted. As of December 31, F-7 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 2001, all of the Company's trade receivables were due from two customers for services performed in Mexico. As of December 31, 2000, all of the Company's trade receivables were due from two customers for services performed in Latin America (Mexico and Colombia). CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 years for ITD Units and 3 to 5 years for office furniture and equipment and transportation and other equipment. Additions or improvements that increase the value or extend the life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Disposals are removed from the accounts at cost less accumulated depreciation and any gain or loss from disposition is reflected in operations currently. INCOME TAXES The Company uses the liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and income tax carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance, if necessary, is provided against deferred tax assets, based upon management's assessment as to their realization. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123") established financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. It defined a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument and encouraged all entities to adopt that method of accounting for all of their employee stock compensation plans and include the cost in the income statement as compensation expense. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". The Company accounts for compensation cost for stock option plans in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25. ACQUIRED ENGINEERING DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY Acquired engineering design and technology represents the intangible value associated with certain proprietary equipment and process designs acquired by the Company in the acquisition of OnSite Technology, L.L.C. ("OnSite") in 1997. In the acquisition of OnSite, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisal. This intangible asset is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 8 years using the straight-line method. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS In the event facts and circumstances indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset, including associated intangibles, may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow is required. Given the homogeneous nature and geographic F-8 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) deployment flexibility of such assets, and based upon an evaluation by management, an impairment write-down of the Company's long-lived assets was not deemed necessary. TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are measured as if the functional currency were the U.S. dollar. The remeasurement of local currencies into U.S. dollars creates translation adjustments which are included in net income. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company includes fair value information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value of its financial instruments is different from the book value. When the book value approximates fair value, no additional disclosure is made. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998 and June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS") No. 133, ("Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" respectively. These statements establish accounting reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 also require that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company does not currently hold derivative instruments or engage in hedging activities and, accordingly, these standards do not have an impact on our results of operations or financial position. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for using the purchase method. In addition, companies are required to review goodwill and intangible assets reported in connection with prior acquisitions, possibly desegregate and report separately previously identified intangible assets, and in certain cases reclassify certain intangible assets into goodwill. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and requires that goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment. SFAS No. 142 also requires that the useful lives of previously recognized intangible assets be reassessed and the remaining amortization periods be adjusted accordingly. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and affects all goodwill and other intangible assets recorded on the Company's balance sheet at that date, regardless of when the assets were initially recorded. The effects of implementation of SFAS No. 142 on the Company's results of operations or financial position has not yet been determined. SFAS No. 142 may require that the Company obtain annual independent appraisal of acquired engineering design and technology costs, reported in the accompanying December 31, 2001 balance sheet with a remaining unamortized carrying value of $1,611,000. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations". SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2001. The Company believes the adoption of these new standards is not expected to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The provisions of this statement provide a single F-9 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) accounting model for impairment of long-lived assets. The Company believes the adoption of these new standards is not expected to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position. 2. LIQUIDITY ISSUES Since its inception, the Company has expended a significant portion of its resources to develop markets and industry awareness of the capabilities of its indirect thermal desorption recycling process. The Company's efforts have been focused on the development, production and sale of environmental recycling technologies and services to oil and gas industry participants, waste management companies and other industrial customers. The Company's efforts to develop markets and produce equipment have required significant amounts of capital including long-term debt secured by the Company's ITD units and related ITD technology. With the exception of the profitability impact from the Company's sale of three ITD units and certain licensing rights in late 2001 (as noted below and in Note 3), the Company has incurred recurring net losses and has been dependent on revenue from a limited customer base to provide cash flows. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently seeking to obtain service contracts in the markets that it serves and is also considering strategic alternatives including a possible additional sale of certain of its assets. In December 2001, the company completed the sale of three of its ITD units and certain licensing rights, and the proceeds were used to pay off all the Company's senior debt. (See Notes 3 and 4). The Company's long-term viability as a going concern is dependent on the repositioning of its asset base and the achievement of a sustaining level of profitability. To the extent the Company's cash reserves and cash flows from operations are insufficient to meet future cash requirements, the Company will need to raise funds through the infusion of equity, the issuance of debt securities or the sale of ITD units. Such financing may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Further, the sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities may result in dilution to the Company's stockholders. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management has evaluated the carrying value of long-lived assets, including associated intangibles. An evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the assets to their carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow is required. Given the homogeneous nature and geographic deployment flexibility of such assets, and based upon this evaluation by management, impairment of the Company's long-lived assets has not been deemed necessary. 3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consists of the following: <Table> <Caption> 2001 2000 ------- ------- (IN THOUSANDS) ITD Remediation/Recycling Units and auxiliary equipment..... $11,777 $14,973 Office furniture and equipment.............................. 36 36 Transportation and other equipment.......................... 49 49 ------- ------- 11,862 15,058 Less accumulated depreciation............................... 5,323 6,129 ------- ------- Property and equipment, net....................... $ 6,539 $ 8,929 ======= ======= </Table> F-10 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In December 2001 the Company completed the sale of three of its ITD units and licensing rights to a customer in Mexico. The total sales price for the ITD units and licensing rights was $6,900,000 and the Company recognized a gain on the sale of $6,252,000. In connection with the sale, the Company granted its customer in Mexico an exclusive license for, and right to use, the Company's ITD technology in Mexico (subject to an existing agreement) and an option to acquire a fourth ITD unit from the Company. 4. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt as of December 31, 2000 consisted of senior secured notes payable to certain corporate and individual investors (the "Investor Notes") funded in connection with the Company's acquisition of OnSite and subsequent exercise of an option for $5 million of additional debt under similar terms. The Investor Notes had an original face value of $11 million, and were fully repaid in December 2001. Following is an analysis of long-term debt as of December 31, 2000, (In thousands): <Table> Contractual balance......................................... $5,406 Less unaccreted discount.................................... (298) ------ Long-term debt............................................ 5,108 Less current maturities..................................... 2,945 ------ Long-term debt, net of current portion.................... $2,163 ====== </Table> As part of a plan to deal with liquidity issues, in August 2000 the Company obtained a six-month deferral for payment of certain quarterly installments on its long-term debt. In order to obtain the deferrals, the Company exchanged 400,000 newly issued shares of Series D convertible Preferred Stock for all issued shares of Series C non-convertible Preferred Stock held by the Company's primary lender. The conversion feature associated with the 400,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock was valued at $168,000 based on an independent appraisal. The value of the conversion feature, representing unaccreted discount, was amortized to expense over the remaining fifteen-month term of the debt using the effective interest method. Effective March 5, 2001 the Company entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") with its primary lenders and holders of its outstanding preferred stock that provided for a further three-month deferral (with a provision for further deferral under certain circumstances) of all principal and interest payments (both currently due and previously deferred) due in March on the Company's senior secured debt. In exchange for the deferral of senior secured debt and preferred stock dividend payments, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock was reset at the default rate or $0.37 per share. This change in the conversion price resulted in further dilution to the Company's stockholders. Based on a review by an independent appraiser, no value was assigned to the change in conversion feature. The Investor Notes also included a provision for the Company to issue to the lenders warrants to acquire shares of the Company's Common Stock upon the earlier of an event of default under the terms of the Investor Notes or February 17, 2000, provided, however, that the Investor Notes were repaid in full prior to February 17, 2000. Based on this provision, on February 17, 2000, the Company issued the lenders warrants to acquire 417,066 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.01 per share. These warrants had an approximate value of $438,000 at the date of issue based on an independent appraisal and such value was treated as additional interest and was amortized to expense over the remaining twenty-two month term of the debt using the effective interest method. The Investor Notes included a further provision for the Company to issue the lenders warrants to acquire an additional 188,571 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.01 per share if the Investor Notes are not prepaid in full by December 17, 2001. Based on this provision, on December 17, 2001, the Company issued the lenders warrants to acquire 188,571 shares of the company's common stock at $0.01 per share. These warrants F-11 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) had an approximate value of $46,000 at the date of issue and such value was treated as additional interest and was amortized to expense in the month of December 2001 to coincide with the full repayment of senior debt in December 2001. During the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred interest charges as follows: <Table> <Caption> 2001 2000 1999 ---- ------ ------ (IN THOUSANDS) Interest charged to expense................................. $839 $1,018 $1,455 Interest capitalized as construction period interest........ -- -- 45 ---- ------ ------ Total interest............................................ $839 $1,018 $1,500 ==== ====== ====== </Table> 5.

LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company leases certain equipment and facilities (mainly offices and vehicles) under cancelable operating leases. Certain of the leases provide for renewal options; however, none of the leases have a remaining term of greater than one year. Rental expense for operating leases was $50,000, $100,000 and $115,000 during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. F-12 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 7. INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows: <Table> <Caption> 2001 2000 ------- ------- (IN THOUSANDS) Deferred tax liabilities: Tax on undistributed foreign income....................... $ -- $ 232 Basis of property and equipment........................... 315 656 ------- ------- Total deferred tax liabilities.................... 315 888 ------- ------- Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards.......................... 1,170 2,389 Undistributed foreign losses.............................. 352 456 Foreign tax credit carryforwards.......................... -- 378 All other, net............................................ 452 452 ------- ------- Total deferred tax assets......................... 1,974 3,675 ------- ------- Valuation allowance.......................................

(61)% (34)% (34)% --- --- --- 30% 776% 76% === === === </Table> As of December 31, 2001, for U.S. federal income tax reporting purposes, the Company has approximately $3,444,000 of unused net operating losses ("NOLs") to future years. The Company's NOLs do not include the undistributed losses from certain controlled foreign corporations. The benefit from such NOLs will expire during the years ending December 31, 2017 to 2020. Because United States of America tax laws limit the time during which NOLs may be applied against future taxable income, the Company may be unable to take full advantage of its NOLs for federal income tax purposes should the Company generate taxable income. Further, the benefit from utilization of NOLs could be subject to limitations if material ownership changes occur in the Company. Based on such limitation, the Company has significant NOLs for which realization of tax benefits is uncertain. 8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company's articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with characteristics determined by the Company's board of directors. In 1997 the board of directors authorized the issuance and sale of up to 5,000,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock and up to 400,000 shares of Series C non-voting non-convertible preferred stock. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the board of directors authorized the issuance of up to 400,000 shares of Series D convertible preferred stock. The Series D shares were issued in exchange for Series C as discussed below. SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK In 1997, the Company issued 3,771,422 shares of $0.001 par value Series B convertible preferred stock for $4,000,000, or $1.06 per share. Dividends are paid at the same rate as common stock based upon the conversion rate. The Series B convertible preferred stock can be converted to common stock at any time at the option of the holder. The initial rate is 1 common share for each preferred share; however, the conversion rate is subject to adjustments to prevent dilution. The holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock have the right to vote on all matters except the election of Directors that are voted on by holders of the Company's Common Stock. However, Series B convertible preferred stockholders have the right to vote separately, as a class, for the election of one Director. The Series B convertible preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1.06 per share plus any unpaid dividends. In December 1998, the Company canceled 1,037,736 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock in exchange for accounts receivable. SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK In 1997, the Company issued 400,000 shares of Series C non-voting preferred stock with a $0.001 per share par value and a $10 per share stated value. The Series C preferred stock carries a quarterly dividend payable in arrears of prime plus 1.5% based on the stated value of the stock. The Series C preferred stock is redeemable at the option of the Company at a price of $10 per share plus any unpaid dividends. Proceeds of $4,000,000 from the Series C preferred stock were recorded net of a discount of $809,000, which included F-14 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) related offering costs incurred and the allocation of a portion of the proceeds to the warrants issued to the same investors. The allocation of proceeds between the Series C preferred stock, Investor Notes (See Note 4) and the warrants (See stock warrants below) was based upon relative fair values of the underlying securities. The Series C preferred stock was accreted to its liquidation value over a period of 26 months to February 17, 2000. The accretion of the Series C preferred stock is deducted from the net loss to derive the net loss applicable to common stockholders in the calculation of earnings per share (See Note 9). During 2001 the Company redeemed all outstanding shares of Series C preferred in exchange for Series D preferred as noted below. SERIES D PREFERRED STOCK During 2000, the Company exchanged 400,000 newly issued shares of Series D convertible Preferred Stock for Series C non-convertible Preferred Stock held by the Company's primary lender. The newly issued shares of Series D Preferred stock are convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $2.25 per share until December 31, 2002, and a conversion price of $1.00 after December 31, 2002. In the event of a default under the loan agreement, the conversion price shall be the lesser of $1.00 per share or the averaging thirty-day trailing price. The conversion feature associated with the 400,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock was valued at $168,000 based on an independent appraisal. The value of the conversion feature, representing unaccreted discount, was amortized to expense over the remaining term of the debt using the effective interest method. Other than the conversion feature of the Series D Preferred Stock, its features and preferences are the same as the Series C Preferred Stock. As shown in Note 4, in March 2001, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock was reset at the default rate of $0.37 per share, in exchange for the deferral of senior secured debt and preferred stock dividend payments. This change in the conversion price resulted in further dilution to the Company's stockholders. STOCK OPTIONS The Company periodically issues incentive stock options to key employees, officers, and directors to provide additional incentives to promote the success of the Company's business and to enhance the ability to attract and retain the services of qualified persons. The issuance of such options are approved by the Board of Directors. The exercise price of an option granted is determined by the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options is greater than or equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense has been recognized. Proforma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. No options were granted in 2001, 2000 or 1999 and, accordingly, no option pricing assumptions are presented. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in F-15 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company has adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") under which incentive stock options for up to 800,000 shares of the Company's common stock may be awarded to officers, directors and key employees. The Option Plan is designed to attract and reward key executive personnel. During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company had options for 610,000 of a total of 800,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Option Plan. During 2000, 62,500 options were forfeited resulting in a 547,500 of a total of 800,000 share of common stock reserved for the issuance under the Option Plan. Stock options granted pursuant to the Option Plan expire not more than ten years from the date of grant and typically vest over two years, with 50% vesting after one year and 50% vesting in the succeeding year. All of the options granted by the Company were granted at an option price equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. PROFORMA DISCLOSURES For purposes of proforma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is included in expense over the option's vesting period or expected life. Prior to September 1, 1999, 626,730 of the Company's stock options were repriced from original exercise prices ranging from $2.50 to $5.00 per share to a new exercise price of $1.44 per share. The new exercise price was based on the quoted market value of the Company's common stock at the date of repricing. The repricing of options significantly impacted proforma financial information in 1999.

All warrants bear an exercise price of $0.01 per share, are currently exercisable, and expire in December 2007. 9. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each year and after preferred stock dividend requirements. Diluted earnings per common share assume that any dilutive convertible debentures and convertible preferred shares outstanding at the beginning of each year were converted at those dates, with related interest, preferred stock dividend requirements and outstanding common shares adjusted accordingly. It also assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock options for which market price exceeds exercise price, less shares which could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds. The convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share for 2000 or 1999 since their effect was antidilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, due to the fact that the Company incurred net losses, all common stock equivalents have been excluded from the calculation of earnings per share because their effect is anti-dilutive. In periods when net income is reported, the calculation of diluted earnings per share may require that the common stock equivalents (totaling 19,645,939 as of December 31, 2001) disclosed in Note 8 be included in the calculation of the weighted average shares outstanding for periods in which net income is F-18 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC.

The Plan does not provide for Company matching or discretionary contributions and, accordingly, the Company recognized no expense under the Plan in 2001, 2000 or 1999. 11. LITIGATION The Company is from time to time involved in litigation incidental to its business, and which at times involves claims for significant monetary amounts, some of which would not be covered by insurance. Presently the Company has no existing litigation. 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In March 2001 and September 2000, the company entered into agreements with its primary lenders and holders of its outstanding preferred stock to defer various principal and interest payments on its senior debt. The senior debt was fully repaid in December 2001. During 1998, the Company entered into a marketing assistance agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") with the minority owners of OnSite Colombia, Inc. Under the terms of the Marketing Agreement, in exchange for assisting the Company in its business expansion efforts, the minority owners and the Company each received marketing assistance fees totaling $320,000 during each of the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. During December 1998, the Company formed a joint company, OnSite Arabia, Inc., with an investor group for the purpose of providing environmental remediation in the Arabian Gulf region. The Company sold F-19 ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) two ITD Units to the newly formed joint company (one in 1999 and one in 1998) and recognized gains to the extent proceeds received exceeded the Company's proportional basis in the assets. 13. SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS INFORMATION The Company currently operates in the environmental hydrocarbon recycling services. Substantially all revenues result from the sale of services using the Company's ITD units. The Company's reportable segments are based upon geographic area and all intercompany revenue and expenses are eliminated in computing revenues and operating income (loss). A significant portion of the Company's historical foreign operations were conducted by the Company's 50% owned joint company in Colombia. All foreign subsidiaries of the Company operate with the U.S. dollar as their functional currency and, accordingly, no cumulative translation adjustment is presented in the accompanying balance sheet. The Company and OnSite share office facilities and certain employees. Shared costs are generally specifically identified by company; however, certain costs must be allocated based upon management's estimates. The corporate component of operating income (loss) represents corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate assets include cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash investments.
