ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         Pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated as of October 5, 1998 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and
among Technology Manufacturing & Design, Inc., a Texas corporation ("TMD"), and
GWP, Inc. ("GWP"), a Georgia corporation and acquisition subsidiary of U.S.
Technologies Inc. (the "Company"), the Company acquired 51% of the capital
stock of TMD on a fully diluted basis and thereby assumed control of TMD's
operations. TMD is in the business of manufacturing certain specialized
computer components and circuit boards, which is expected to serve as a
complement to the Company's outsourcing operations through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Labor to Industry Inc.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, GWP has agreed
to purchase 19,000,000 shares of TMD's capital stock for an aggregate purchase
price of $536,486, all of which was paid in cash out of working capital. The
purchase price was determined through arms-length negotiations between the
Company and TMD. In addition, GWP has agreed to infuse up to an additional
$193,514 as paid-in capital to satisfy working capital shortfalls of TMD.
Further, during the period beginning on October 5, 2000 and ending on October 5,
2001, on a date to be determined by GWP, GWP has agreed to purchase the
remaining 49% interest from the TMD shareholders at a purchase price to be
determined by a formula based on TMD's EBITDA. The transaction is scheduled to
close on or before October 30, 1998.

         The foregoing description of the acquisition of the capital stock of
TMD is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Stock Purchase
Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1.

this Report is required to be filed).

         (b)      Pro Forma Financial Information:

         At the present time, it is impractical to provide the pro forma

forma financial information under cover of Form 8-K/A as soon as practicable,
but not later than December 19, 1998 (60 days after this Report is required to
be filed).
