NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
February 28, 2009
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation:
The balance sheet at the end of the preceding fiscal year has been derived
from the audited balance sheet contained in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the
year ended August 31, 2008 (the "10-KSB") and is presented for comparative
purposes. All other financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments that include only normal recurring adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations
for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results
for the full year.
Footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America have been omitted in accordance with the published rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes thereto included in the 10-KSB for the most recent fiscal year.
Going Concern- The Company's financial statements have been presented on the
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has
reported substantial losses since inception. The Company's viability as a
going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations
through increased sales, obtaining additional financing or receiving
additional capital. This raises substantial doubt about the Company s ability
to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 - Reorganization:
Under a Chapter 11 proceeding, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed a Plan of
Reorganization for the Company, which became effective on August 11, 1995.
Claims of creditors, to the extent allowed under the Plan, were required to be
paid over a four-year period.
NOTE 3- Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies:
Loss per Share - Loss per share is based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the periods. The effect of warrants outstanding
is not included since it would be anti-dilutive.
Estimates and Uncertainties - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affects the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results, as determined at a later
date, could differ from those estimates.
Financial Instruments - Financial instruments include accounts
receivable, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, settled
liabilities and due to stockholders. The amounts reported for financial
instruments are considered to be reasonable approximations of their fair
values. The fair value estimates presented herein were based on market or
other information available to management. The use of different market
assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on
the estimated fair value amounts.
Equity Based Compensation- Effective September 1, 2006, the Company
adopted provisions of SFAS 123R for recording equity based compensation.

February 28, 2009
The weighted average fair value of warrants has been estimated on the date of
grant using the Black-Scholes warrants pricing model. There was $44,250 and
$147,529 of expense recorded for the periods February 28, 2009 and
February 29, 2008, respectively.
In accordance with SFAS 123, the fair value of each warrant grant has been
estimated as of the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following weighted average assumptions:
For the Six Months ended

New Accounting Pronouncements ? We have reviewed the issued but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements and have deemed such accounting
pronouncements not to be relevant or the adoption of such accounting
pronouncements once effective will not have a material effect on the
Company?s financial statements.
NOTE 4 - Management's Actions to Overcome Operating and Liquidity
Problems:
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's viability as a
going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations
through increased sales and/or obtaining additional financing. Without
achieving these, there is substantial doubt about the Company?s ability to
continue as a going concern.
The Company has a liability for settled claims payable to creditors in
connection with its reorganization under the Plan. Without the achievement
of profitable operations or additional financing, funds for repayment would
not be available.
Management believes that successful passing of stringent tests, obtaining
various civil and government approvals, and actions it has undertaken to
revise the Company's operating and marketing structure should provide it
with the opportunity to generate revenues needed to realize profitable
operations and to attract the necessary financing and/or capital for the
payment of outstanding obligations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company continued its product development and application testing, and now
have numerous certifications for specific applications. Since August 1995,
the Company has applied for eight patents, five of which have been issued. The
other three are pending. Additionally, one patent has been purchased by the
Company. The Company has been increasing its marketing efforts principally by
retaining the services of specialized distribution firms. The Company's
management believes that marketing efforts to date have brought the Company
closer to achieving greater sales for applications in many diverse industries
including: utilities military, maritime, wood products, structural steel and
nuclear power plants. Significant tests have been passed and approvals
received to qualify the Company's products in naval and other military and
government applications. Aggressive marketing efforts are underway to obtain
orders in these applications. Obstacles encountered in obtaining orders for
most applications are the continuing tests and approvals required, competition
against well established and better capitalized companies, cost,
the slow process of specifying new products in highly regulated industrial
applications and the decision not to use any fire retardant product.
In general, the Company's products perform their intended uses well and are
in a form that is safe and easy to use. The Company's most pressing need
continues to be cash infusion as discussed below in the section on Liquidity
and Capital Resources. The Company is limiting its research and development
efforts to concentrate on sales of existing products. While new market
opportunities frequently arise, the Company has opted to concentrate
on targeting sales of present products rather than developing new products.
Any new product opportunity will be pursued if it is viable.
Additional efforts are also being directed to increase international sales
by establishing distributor relationships in strategic locations throughout
the industrialized and third world countries.
The number of manufacturing and quality control employees will increase with
increased production. The salaried administrative and marketing staff will be
evaluated and may be increased to support sales and marketing initiatives.
Additional support for direct sales is expected to be provided by independent
commission agents or employees compensated principally by commission.
COMPARISON SIX MONTHS ENDED February 28, 2009 AND February 29, 2008:
Sales of $421,353 for the six months ended February 28, 2009 represented an
increase of 31.5% from the $320,298 for the comparable six-month period of
the prior year. Cost of goods sold during the same period increased from
$90,838 to $247,791 resulting in a gross profit of $173,562 compared to
$229,460 in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for
the six months ended February 28, 2009 were $590,325, representing a decrease
of $93,873 or 13.7% from the $684,198 of the similar period of the prior year.
Page 11
The main decrease during the period was $103,279 in equity based compensation.
COMPARISON THREE MONTHS ENDED February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008:
Sales of $166,571 for the three months ended February 28, 2009 represented a
decrease of 29.6% from the $236,456 for the comparable three-month period of
the prior year. Cost of goods sold during the same period decreased from
$60,242 to $60,122 resulting in a gross profit of $106,449 compared to
$176,214 in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for
the three months ended February 28, 2009 were $312,490 representing a
decrease of $88,743 or 22.1% from the $401,233 of the similar period of the
prior year.
During the periods ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008, the Company
realized approximately $21,453 and $48,152, respectively, through the sale of
a portion of its New Jersey Net Operating Loss Carry Forward under a program
sponsored by that state.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At February 28, 2009 the Company had cash a balance of $ 372.
The Company has deferred payment of $378,031 of the installments of the
Chapter 11 liability to unsecured creditors that were due in September 1996,
1997, 1998 and 1999. In order to pay those liabilities and meet working
capital needs until significant sales levels are achieved, the Company will
continue to explore alternative sources of funding including exercise of
warrants, bank and other borrowings, issuance of convertible debentures,
issuance of common stock to settle debt, and the sale of equity securities in
a public or private offering. There is no assurance that the Company will be
successful in securing requisite financing.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company does not issue or invest in financial instruments or derivatives
for trading or speculative purposes. Substantially all of the operations of
the Company are conducted in the United States and as a result are not subject
to material foreign currency exchange rate risk.
Item 4(t). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), as of
the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based
on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we
file or submit under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
There have been no changes in internal control over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during
the period covered by this report.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
A complaint was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division,
Bergen County on May 27, 2008. It is alleged by the plaintiff that the Company
entered into a contract with Otis and June Hastings and $250,000 remains due
and owing under said contract. The Company maintains that it has fully
satisfied the terms of the contract, including all monetary obligations. On
December 10, 2008 a mediation was held but the case was not resolved
Discovery is proceeding. The Company believes this lawsuit is without merit
and intends to vigorously dispute the claim.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
In February 2009 an officer of the Company converted 250,000 warrants into
common stock of the Company.
The price was determined to be $.10 per share which calculated at $25,000.
The manner of payment was a reduction of $25,000 from the accrued payroll
due him.
