BUSINESS The Corporation - --------------- Logan International Corp. was incorporated in the State of Washington on September 15, 1993 and commenced operations in April 1994. In this document, unless the context otherwise requires, the "Corporation" or "Logan" refers to Logan International Corp. and its subsidiaries. The Corporation is a subsidiary of MFC Bancorp Ltd. ("MFC"), which owns approximately 71% of the Corporation's shares of common stock. A subsidiary of MFC owns $6 million of preferred shares in the capital stock of the Corporation. Business of the Corporation - --------------------------- The Corporation operates in the financial services industry, engaged primarily in the real estate business. All of the Corporation's real estate assets are located in the Puget Sound region of the State of Washington, are undeveloped and a substantial portion are in a pre-development state. Logan intends, as opportunities arise, to monetize its real estate assets to finance the acquisition of controlling interests in operating businesses. Logan may also acquire additional real estate assets. Logan does not intend to develop any of its undeveloped real estate properties, but in certain instances may participate in development joint venture arrangements as an interim step in the sale or monetization of a property, and will continue pre-development work on the properties to the extent necessary to protect or enhance their value. The development of real property in the State of Washington is subject to multiple layers of government regulation, including state law and certain ordinances of the city and county wherein the property is located. Environmental regulations at the federal, state and local levels with regard to wetlands, stormwater retention and discharge, wildlife, tree preservation, slopes and groundwater recharge have greatly increased the cost and uncertainty related to the development of property in the State of Washington and have lengthened the time necessary to receive development permits. Consequently, fewer developers are buying property in the State of Washington and these developers tend to wait until the permitting process is near completion before committing to a purchase. The type and intensity of development of real property in the State of Washington is subject to the comprehensive plan and zoning designation of the property within the city or county in which the property is located. Property development is also affected by sensitive areas, such as wetlands, streams or wildlife habitat, located on the site. Both the local government and the Army Corps of Engineers have jurisdiction over wetland areas. Upon delivery of a development proposal, the appropriate government agency will examine the site and delineate wetland areas. These areas must either be left undisturbed with sufficient buffers for protection or a mitigation plan for the designated areas must be approved. Due to the broad definition of wetlands, it is common for undeveloped property in the western Washington area to have some wetlands designated. The majority of the Corporation's properties have had some wetland areas designated. 4 5 In 1990, the Washington legislature passed the Growth Management Act ("GMA") to "guide the development and adoption of comprehensive plans and development regulations" in Washington State. The goal of the comprehensive development plans is to, among other things, reduce the development density in rural areas, encourage affordable housing and a variety of housing densities, maintain and conserve natural resource industries and lands and protect and enhance the environment and the availability of water. Under the GMA, the counties in which the Corporation's properties are located have a several year period in which to develop county-wide growth plans that will designate those areas in which growth will be accommodated over the next 20 years. As a result of the uncertainty which has arisen from the formulation of these growth plans, the permitting process relating to the development of property in these counties has been delayed. It is believed, however, that all of the Corporation's properties are located in areas where additional growth will be permitted. The Corporation intends to use the proceeds from the sale or monetization of its real estate assets to acquire controlling equity interests in operating businesses. In addition, the Corporation may seek to exchange its real estate assets for equity interests in certain other companies. The Corporation will seek to acquire interests in those companies that it believes its expertise in financial restructuring and asset management will add value to the Corporation's investment. In order to accomplish such acquisitions, the Corporation may engage in joint ventures with affiliated companies. In December 1998, the Corporation transferred its 50.9% interest in the shares of common stock of ICHOR Corporation ("Ichor") to a wholly-owned subsidiary of its parent corporation. Ichor is a Delaware corporation whose shares of common stock are quoted on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. At December 31, 1998, the Corporation had no full-time employees. The executive officers of the Corporation devote such time to the business of the Corporation as is required. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Corporation's administrative offices are located on premises leased by an affiliate of its parent company in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Corporation's undeveloped real estate properties are located in the Puget Sound region of Washington State and consist of 8 parcels totaling approximately 111 acres which are zoned for various commercial uses including retail, office and business park, and 2 parcels totaling approximately 37 acres which are zoned for medium to high residential use. The Corporation is seeking to sell these parcels and does not intend to fully develop the majority of them prior to sale. The Corporation typically engages in such preliminary development work as is necessary to maximize the value of the parcels prior to their sale. 5 6 Gig Harbour Property - -------------------- The Corporation owns approximately 102 acres of undeveloped real property which was, in early 1997, annexed to the City of Gig Harbour, Washington, which is located at the west end of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge from Tacoma, Washington. The annexation provides for much higher intensity development than was allowed under its previous jurisdiction (Pierce County), and opens the way for a new major thoroughfare to be built through the middle of the property that connects State Highway 16 and the North entrance of Gig Harbour. Of the total acreage, 50 acres are now zoned for retail/commercial uses, 35 acres for medium density (8 units per acre) residential use and 17 acres for business park/professional office. The retail portion of the property is under an option agreement for development into a regional shopping center. The Corporation may develop all or a portion of the remaining land through partnerships, joint ventures or other economic associations with local developers. The Corporation's current involvement is limited to pre- development work, including infrastructure (roads, sewer and water services), preliminary permits, market studies, feasibility studies and related activities. All utilities are available to the site, but the extension of utilities would be required prior to development of the site. In addition, internal roadways will need to be constructed to provide access to the site and the site will require grading prior to development. The Corporation has not determined whether it will be involved in any of the actual site work. The City of Gig Harbour is planning an extension of a street past the site, which when completed, will provide access to the site from the City of Gig Harbour and State Highway 16. This street extension may take up to 18 months to complete. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Corporation is subject to routine litigation incidental to its business from time to time. The Corporation does not believe that the outcome of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS Not applicable. 6 7 PART II ------- ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS (a) Market Information.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively, should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere herein. Effective December 31, 1998, the Corporation transferred its holdings of shares of common stock of Ichor. Ichor's results of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and its assets and liabilities as at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, have been included in the Corporation's financial statements. As Ichor sold its environmental remediation services business in April 1997 and a waste oil recycling facility in December 1997, these operations have been accounted for as discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 1997. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods' financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation. Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to the - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Year Ended December 31, 1997 - ---------------------------- Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998 decreased to $3.1 million from $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. In the year ended December 31, 1998, the Corporation sold real estate for $1.0 million, compared to $3.3 million in the comparative period of 1997. In the current period, the Corporation reported a non-cash accounting gain on disposal of subsidiaries of $1.4 million. Effective March 31, 1998, the Corporation's then 50.9% owned subsidiary, Ichor, sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, ICHOR Services, Inc. ("Services"), and recognized a non-cash accounting gain on the sale as a result of the disposal of net liabilities of Services. Effective December 31, 1998, the Corporation transferred its holdings of shares of common stock of Ichor. Costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 decreased to $2.5 million from $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. The cost of real estate sold and related selling costs decreased to $0.9 million in the year ended December 31, 1998 from $1.9 million in the comparable period of 1997, primarily as a result of a reduction in the sale of real estate. Interest expense decreased to $0.4 million in the year ended December 31, 1998 from $0.9 million in the same period of 1997, primarily as a result of decreased indebtedness resulting from the disposition by Ichor of Services. General and administrative expenses were $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Corporation had net income of $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share, in the year ended December 31, 1998.

Costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased to $4.1 million from $3.8 million in the comparable period of 1996, primarily as a result of the inclusion of Ichor's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997. General and administrative expenses increased to $1.2 million in the year ended December 31, 1997 from $1.1 million in the comparable period of 1996.

The cost of real estate sold and related selling costs decreased to $1.9 million in the year ended December 31, 1997, from $2.4 million in the comparable period of 1996, primarily as a result of a reduction in the sale of real estate. The Corporation reported income from continuing operations of $0.4 million in the year ended December 31, 1997, compared to a loss of $5,000 in the year ended December 31, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Corporation had cash of $0.6 million at December 31, 1998, compared to $0.5 million at December 31, 1997. Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.5 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to $0.8 million in the year ended December 31, 1997. Borrowings from the Corporation's parent company and its subsidiaries provided cash of $4.4 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to $1.2 million in the comparable period of 1997. A decrease in accounts and notes receivable provided cash of $0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to an increase in accounts and notes receivable using cash of $2.2 million in the same period of 1997. Sales of and a decrease in real estate held for development and sale provided cash of $0.8 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to $1.5 million in the year ended December 31, 1997. 10 11 Investing activities used cash of $6.3 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, primarily for the purchase of a note receivable in the amount of $1.4 million and the purchase of common shares of the Corporation's parent corporation. Financing activities provided cash of $2.0 million in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to using cash of $1.2 million in the year ended December 31, 1997. A net increase in indebtedness provided cash of $25,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to a net decrease in indebtedness using cash of $1.0 million in the comparative period of 1997. The Corporation paid $0.3 million in dividends on its preferred stock in the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to $0.2 million in the comparative period of 1997. At December 31, 1998, the Corporation had $1.7 million in outstanding notes which are secured by deeds of trust on a portion of the Corporation's real estate assets and are non-recourse to the Corporation. Pursuant to such deeds of trust, the Corporation is obligated to make property tax and assessment payments on the secured properties on a timely basis. At December 31, 1998, overdue property taxes on the Corporation's properties amounted to $0.1 million. In addition, there were approximately $0.2 million in assessments to local improvement districts ("LIDs"). Overdue property taxes and LIDs accrue interest at approximately 12% per annum. Under Washington State law, if property taxes or LIDs remain delinquent for three years, the governing jurisdiction can commence foreclosure proceedings against the property. The Corporation anticipates that for the foreseeable future it will permit property taxes to remain overdue, but may pay such taxes and LIDs as are necessary to prevent foreclosure proceedings from occurring. No non- judicial or judicial foreclosure actions have been commenced as a result of the Corporation's failure to make property tax or assessment payments on a timely basis. The following table summarizes the repayment schedule of the Corporation's debt obligations, LIDs and unpaid property taxes at December 31, 1998: Year Ending Dollars in December 31, Thousands ------------ ---------- 1999 $ 1,811 2000 41 2001 41 2002 41 2003 41 Thereafter 41 ---------- $ 2,016 ========== The Corporation has no commitments for capital expenditures in relation to its undeveloped real estate, although it may need to provide funds for pre- development work on certain parcels in order to enhance their marketability and sale value. The Corporation believes that its assets should enable the Corporation to meet its current ongoing liquidity requirements. 11 12 Year 2000 - --------- Many of the world's computer systems currently record years in a two-digit format. These computer systems will be unable to properly interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which could lead to business disruptions and is commonly referred to as the "Year 2000" issue. Based on its current information, management of the Corporation has determined that the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems for its computer systems as it only utilizes commercially available software and personal computers, which are Year 2000 compliant. The total cost to the Corporation of Year 2000 compliance activities has not been and is not currently anticipated to be material to its financial position or results of operations in any given year. In addition, management of the Corporation has initiated communications with clients to ascertain their Year 2000 readiness and develop contingency plans as required, and management intends to address this issue with any prospective client. The determination by management and costs relating to the Year 2000 issue are based on management's best estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events. However, there can be no assurance that these estimates will be achieved and actual results could vary materially from those anticipated. ITEM 7A.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Logan International Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. 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 generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from 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.

AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In Thousands of Dollars, Except for Per Share Amounts) Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations - -------------------- Logan International Corp. ("the Company") is in the financial services industry which currently includes investments in real estate. The Company is a 71% - owned subsidiary of MFC Bancorp Ltd. ("MFC"). Principles of Consolidation - --------------------------- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Unless otherwise stated, all notes to financial statements relate to continuing operations. Cash - ---- Cash balances are occasionally in excess of federally insured amounts. Cash held in escrow represented amounts which were subject to withdrawal restrictions. Investments - ----------- The Company holds certain of its marketable investments (including those in the common stock of MFC) as available-for-sale securities which are stated at fair value. Any unrealized holding gains or losses of available-for-sale securities are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. If a loss in value in available-for-sale securities is considered to be other than temporary, it is recognized in the determination of net income. Cost is based on the specific identification method to determine realized gains or losses. Investments in nonmarketable securities (consisting of preferred stock of MFC) are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Real Estate Held for Development and Sale - ----------------------------------------- Real estate held for development and sale is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value as determined by management based on current market conditions in the same geographic region. The Company's real estate is treated as inventory which is to be disposed of in the near-term and is, therefore, classified as a current asset. 21 22 Note 1. (Continued) Environmental Conservation - -------------------------- Liabilities for environmental conservation are recorded when it is probable that obligations have been incurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. Any potential recoveries of such liabilities are to be recorded when there is an agreement with a reimbursing entity. No such liabilities were recorded in these consolidated financial statements. Taxes on Income - --------------- The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates. Earnings Per Share - ------------------ Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive common shares; however, there were no dilutive securities for 1998, 1997 and 1996. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 10,837,808 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, and 6,862,348 for the year ended December 31, 1996. The income or (loss) from continuing operations to compute the amount attributable to common shareholders includes the recognition of preferred stock dividends in arrears of $300 for each of the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Use of Estimates - ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 22 23 Note 1. (Continued) Comprehensive Income - -------------------- Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. The primary objective of this statement is to report and disclose a measure of all changes in equity of an entity that result from transactions and other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners. Of the various methods allowed to accomplish this objective, the Company has elected to provide separate statements of comprehensive income. New Accounting Standards - ------------------------ Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. This statement requires use of the "management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Management operates the Company as one segment: financial services. Information for management purposes does not require the segmenting of financial services activities. Operating revenues are realized primarily from third party sources in the United States. All long-lived assets are located in the United States. Since there is one segment, no additional segment disclosures are considered necessary for continuing operations. Statement of Financial Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" established accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. This statement requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. Because the Company does not engage in any derivatives or hedging activities, there should be no impact on its financial statements. Statement of Financial Standards No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained After the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise" establishes accounting and reporting standards for certain activities of mortgage banking enterprises and other enterprises that conduct operations that are substantially similar to a mortgage banking enterprise. Because the Company does not engage in any mortgage banking activities, there should be no impact on the Company's financial statements. 23 24 Note 2. Discontinued Operations During 1997, a subsidiary, Ichor Corporation ("Ichor"), sold its remediation services segment for $147 in cash. As part of the sale transaction, current assets and liabilities of the segment were retained. Also, in 1997, Ichor sold all of its waste oil facility assets for $320 in cash plus a note for $680 which was paid in 1999. Both segments were accounted for as discontinued operations in 1997. A subsidiary of Ichor was sold in 1998 at a non-cash accounting gain of $437. The gain resulted from the assumption of the subsidiary's liabilities by the third party purchaser. Effective December 31, 1998, the Company transferred all of its shares of common stock in Ichor to a wholly-owned subsidiary of MFC. As a result of the transaction, the Company had a net non-cash accounting gain of $982. Further, the Company may receive future proceeds from the subsidiary based on the ultimate disposition of these shares to third parties. Note 3. Investments The Company has investments in available-for-sale securities which have been classified as long-term at December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. These securities may be summarized as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---------- ---------- ---------- Proceeds from sales $ - $ - $ 313 Realized gains - - 175 Fair value of securities at December 31 (of which $4,563 represents MFC common stock for 1998) 4,792 814 201 Cost of securities at December 31 (of which $4,830 represents MFC common stock for 1998) 5,639 808 129 ---------- ---------- ---------- Unrealized (loss) gain in shareholders' equity at December 31 $ (847) $ 6 $ 72 ========== ========== ========== 24 25 Note 3. (Continued) Included in long-term investments are 82,200 MFC Class A Preferred Shares, Series 1, carried at the original cost of $6,200. Since no trading market exists for these shares, management believes the fair value is equal to cost based on the book value of the investee. These shares are convertible, have an annual dividend rate of $3.65 per share, are redeemable at any time and are retractable after 2002 subject to certain conditions. The shares are redeemable and retractable at $70.00 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The shares are convertible at $3.65 per share of common stock for the first year and then increased by $.18 increments each year through 2002 with no adjustment thereafter. The Company received $290 and $172 in dividends in 1998 and 1997, respectively, on these shares. Note 4. Debt 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Nonrecourse notes payable collateralized by real estate: Interest at 15%; due August 30, 1999 $ 1,035 $ 830 Interest at 15%; due August 30, 1999 450 360 Interest at 12%; due August 30, 1999 170 - Amounts due to an insurance company in monthly installments of $38. No interest was charged on this debt. No interest was imputed since the amount is not material. - 757 Other 10 10 ---------- ---------- 1,665 1,957 Less current portion (1,665) (1,597) ---------- ---------- $ - $ 360 ========== ========== 25 26 Note 4. (Continued) In addition to notes payable, the Company also has assessments due to local improvement districts ("LID") and unpaid property taxes which are priority liens on real estate. LID assessments payable are summarized as follows: 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- LID, interest at 9%; payable in annual installments of $41 plus interest $ 245 $ 327 LID, interest at 7.75%; $68 payable in March 1997 and in annual installments of $13 plus interest thereafter - 126 ---------- ---------- $ 245 $ 453 ========== ========== Property taxes in the amount of $106 and $372 were not paid as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. These amounts along with the current portions of notes payable and LID assessments payable have been combined and are classified as current liabilities. As of December 31, 1998, the principal maturities of debt are as follows: 1999 $ 1,811 2000 41 2001 41 2002 41 2003 41 Thereafter 41 ----------- $ 2,016 =========== Based on borrowing rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and average maturities, management believes that the fair value of the Company's debt approximates the amounts disclosed in this note. Note 5. Preferred Stock The Company's Preferred Shares, Series B are voting and require that dividends be paid annually at 5% in arrears on December 31 (amounting to approximately $300 at December 31, 1998). Should dividends not be paid as required, interest at 8% is to be accrued on the unpaid amount. The Company may redeem these shares at any time at an aggregate price which includes all unpaid dividends, accrued interest and a redemption premium of 10% based on the amount paid for the shares. Upon liquidation, these shares are entitled to receive the same amounts as redemption 26 27 Note 5. (Continued) in priority to the common or other shares. As long as any of the Preferred Shares, Series B remain outstanding, the Company cannot pay dividends on common or other junior shares, redeem less than all of these shares or issue additional preferred stock unless all unpaid dividends including interest have been paid. In any event, no shares may be issued in priority to the Preferred Shares, Series B shares without the approval of the preferred shareholders. All 60,000 issued and outstanding shares are held by a subsidiary of MFC. Note 6. Income Tax The reconciliation of income tax from continuing operations computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate to the Company's effective tax for years ended December 31 is as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---------- ---------- ---------- Tax at U.S. statutory rate $ 158 $ 139 $ - Minority interest 49 (329) - Permanent difference associated with the gain on disposal of subsidiary (334) - - Valuation allowance 66 213 - Other 61 (23) - ---------- ---------- ---------- $ - $ - $ - ========== ========== ========== The significant components of the Company's deferred tax asset is as follows: 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Available net operating loss carryforwards $ 746 $ 3,654 Tax basis in real estate acquired in excess of carrying value 439 457 ---------- ---------- 1,185 4,111 Valuation allowance (1,185) (4,111) ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset $ - $ - ========== ========== 27 28 Note 6. (Continued) The Company's net operating loss carryforwards of $2,195 will expire in the years ending December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2013 at $251, $1,695, and $249, respectively. The utilization of these losses is subject to annual limitations due to the Internal Revenue Code. At December 31, 1997, $2,992 of the deferred tax asset was attributable to the net operating loss carryforwards of a subsidiary which was disposed of in 1998. Any tax benefits resulting from the determination of other comprehensive income have been fully reserved. Note 7. Real Estate Transactions The Company has an option agreement to sell approximately 46 acres out of a larger parcel of real estate held for sale for approximately $7,300 which expired August 31, 1998. However, the agreement has been extended to August 30, 1999, by the payment of a $50 fee. During 1996, the Company sold a subsidiary which had as its only asset a parcel of real estate. The proceeds from the sale of $3,340 were shared equally with MFC because of MFC's assistance in concluding the sale. The Company's profit from this sale was included in the 1996 financial statements. The remaining amount due on the sale of $417 is included in accounts receivable at December 31, 1998 and 1997. The receivable is due September 1999 and is secured with the real estate. Management estimates that the fair value of the receivable approximates carrying value based on similar transactions in the market. Note 8. Transactions With Affiliates At December 31, 1998, due to affiliates was an account payable to another subsidiary of MFC which was used by the Company to purchase 500,000 shares of MFC's common stock. The Company received a dividend payment of $10 on these shares. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, another subsidiary of MFC Bancorp held a warrant to purchase 125,000 shares of the Company's stock at $.50 per share by December 31, 2000. The warrants were priced in excess of the average trading price of the Company's shares in 1998 and 1997. At December 31, 1997, due to affiliates included $1,088 to MFC for advances and a $780 advance to Ichor from another MFC subsidiary. 28 29 Note 9. Supplementary Disclosures with Respect to the Statement of Cash Flows Cash paid for interest during the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, was $528, $598 and $32, respectively. Significant noncash transactions in 1998: 1. The Company transferred its shares in Ichor to another subsidiary of MFC. 2. The Company sold a subsidiary to a purchaser who assumed the subsidiary's liabilities. Significant noncash transactions in 1997: 1. Ichor received a $680 note as a part of the sale of its waste oil recycling facility which was paid in 1999. 2. A subsidiary of MFC converted $750 of debt due from Ichor into 75,000 shares of Ichor's preferred stock which is reflected as minority interest at December 31, 1997. Significant noncash transactions in 1996: 1. The Company transferred parcels of land to a lender in exchange for extinguishment of debt of $1,196. An extraordinary gain of $257 was recognized as a result of this transaction. In addition, the Company transferred a parcel of land to a lender in exchange for extinguishment of debt of $511. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of this transaction. 2. The Company exchanged a subsidiary of MFC in a transaction valued at $2,425 for common stock and a note receivable from Ichor. 3. The waste oil recycling facility was acquired in satisfaction of a loan of $2,425. 4. The Company issued 100,000 common shares at $.50 per share to a lender for the release of a conversion right. 29 30 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
