Forward Looking Statements
Some of the statements contained in this report discuss our plans and strategies
for our business or state other forward-looking statements, as this term is
defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements
that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking
statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "plan,"
"intend," "should," "seek," "will," and similar expressions are intended to
identify these forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of
identifying them. These forward-looking statements reflect the current views of
our management. However, various risks, uncertainties and contingencies could
cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from
those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. See our Form 10-K for the
year ended February 29, 2020 for a discussion of certain known risks; also see
Part II, Item 1A.
Overview, Background and History
We are currently a "shell company" with no meaningful assets or operations other
than our efforts to identify and merge with an operating company. We no longer
have any full-time employees and our Chief Executive and Chief Financial
Officers serve on a part-time consulting basis.
Prior to March 2003, our business had been focused on pre-revenue development
and commercialization of disposable medical devices designed to enhance the
effectiveness of magnetic resonance imaging in detection and diagnosis of heart
disease. Due to the unavailability of funding, beginning in the fall of 2002 we
essentially ceased all of our operations including product development and
commercialization activities. Our efforts to realize value for our prior
business and MRI technology have been unsuccessful. As a result, we view our
most viable option to be merging with an unrelated operating company that would
benefit from our status as a reporting company in a so-called "reverse merger"
transaction. Entering into a "reverse merger" would likely involve very
substantial dilution to the existing stockholders. It would, however, provide
an opportunity to return some value to stockholders. While we have identified
and explored merging with a number of candidates over the past few years and
entered into definitive agreements with one candidate (which agreement was
subsequently terminated), we have no commitments to merge with any company at
the present time.
In order to raise cash to continue our efforts to pursue a reverse merger, on
October 31, 2005, the Company consummated a stock purchase agreement with Magna
Acquisition LLC ("MALLC") which resulted in a change of control of our Company.
Under the agreement, we sold 300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to MALLC for
gross proceeds of $190,000, before expenses. Contemporaneous with the new
investment, MALLC purchased from our former principal stockholder 307,727 shares
of the Company's Class A Common Stock, representing all the shares of our common
stock owned by that stockholder.
In January 2017, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer at the time
(the "CEO Purchaser") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Initial
Purchase Agreement") with the Company. Under the Initial Purchase Agreement,
the CEO Purchaser purchased all of the intellectual property rights, any and all
physical assets, any and all permits and all non-financial books, records,
files, design specification, software and other data related to the Company's
magnetic resonance imaging technology. In exchange for purchased assets, the
CEO Purchaser (a) assumed all liabilities of the Company related exclusively to
the purchased assets and (b) agreed to forgiveness of all indebtedness owing
from the Company totaling approximately $110,000 including intellectual property
counsel fees and costs, $68,000 of which had been paid by and is therefore due
to the CEO Purchaser for payments he has made on the Company's behalf in prior
years in an attempt to preserve certain intellectual property rights at that
time. The CEO Purchaser ceased making such payments several years ago and, as
such, the underlying intellectual property became compromised.
On June 30, 2020, Joel S. Kanter, individually and as representative for (i) the
607,727 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company owned by Magna Acquisition
LLC ("MALLC"), (ii) the $1,453,811 of promissory notes owed by the Company to
MALLC and to Joel S. Kanter (collectively, the "Notes"), and (iii) as
representative for the four directors and/or officers owning 106,032 shares of
Class A Common Stock of the Company (the "Seller"), entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which the Seller
agreed to sell 202,576 shares of Class A Common Stock and the Notes to Activist
Investing LLC, an entity owned by David Lazar ("Activist") for $105,000. The
202,576 shares represented approximately 17.2% of the 1,179,329 shares of Class
A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of the Company's outstanding shares of
common stock, which is not a majority. However, Mr. Lazar became the Company's
sole director and officer on or about July 18, 2020 and caused Activist to
convert the Notes (which were currently not convertible as of the date of the
Stock Purchase Agreement) into 116,697,438 shares of Class A Common Stock of the
Company on September 23, 2020. As a result, on or about July 18, 2020, there was
a change of control of the Company. There is no family relationship or other
relationship between the Seller and Activist. An Amendment to the Stock Purchase
Agreement clarified the responsibilities of the parties for filing tax returns,
and that references to the Company included Cardiac MRI, Inc., the Company's
100% subsidiary.
In connection with the sale under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the members of
the Company's Board of Directors resigned and appointed Mr. Lazar as the sole
director of the Company, subject to the filing and dissemination of an
Information Statement, which was filed on July 6, 2020, and the passage of the
10-day period set forth in SEC Rule 14f-1. The Company's officers also resigned
at the same time, namely Lawrence A. Minkoff, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and
Kenneth C. Riscica, Treasurer, Secretary and Chief Financial Officer. As a
result thereof, on or about July 18, 2020, Mr. Lazar then became the sole
Director and officer of the Company.
MALLC has been responsible for substantially all of our funding since October
2005 and until June 30, 2020. During the period from October 2005 through and
including August 31, 2020, MALLC loaned us an aggregate of approximately
$687,000 under a series of promissory notes payable that mature 120 days from
issuance. The balance of notes payable and accrued interest was approximately
$1,472,000 and $1,406,000, as of August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020,
respectively. Notes payable include 12% unsecured notes payable to MALLC, in the
aggregate principal amount of approximately $687,000, plus approximately
$762,000 of interest accrued. In addition, notes payable include 10% unsecured
notes payable to a former director of the Company (who is also a manager of
MALLC) in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $19,000 plus
approximately $4,000 of accrued interest. All of such notes become due 120 days
after issuance and, as such, approximately $687,000 principal amount of the
notes payable to MALLC are overdue at August 31, 2020. Approximately $17,000 of
the notes payable to the former director are overdue. The notes that are overdue
(the notes payable to MALLC and the notes payable to the former director) bear
interest at 15% and 12% per year, respectively. The noteholders have not
asserted that the Company is in default.
On June 2020, the former director loaned to us an additional approximately
$9,000.
We entered into an agreement with MALLC and the former director to convert all
amounts outstanding to them (including overdue amounts) into common stock of the
Company.

Recent Developments
COVID-19
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in
Wuhan, China, which has and is continuing to spread throughout other parts of
the world, including the United States. On January 30, 2020, the World Health
Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a
"Public Health Emergency of International Concern." On January 31, 2020, U.S.
Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II declared a public health
emergency for the United States to aid the U.S. healthcare community in
responding to COVID-19, and on March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization
characterized the outbreak as a "pandemic." COVID-19 has resulted in a
widespread health crisis that has adversely affected the economies and financial
markets worldwide. The business of any potential target business with which we
consummate a business combination could be materially and adversely affected.
Furthermore, we may be unable to complete a business combination if continued
concerns relating to COVID-19 restrict travel, limit the ability to have
meetings with potential investors or the target company's personnel, vendors and
services providers are unavailable to negotiate and consummate a transaction in
a timely manner. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our search for a business
combination will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and
cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the
severity of COVID-19, the duration of the pandemic, and the actions to contain
COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. If the disruptions posed by COVID-19
or other matters of global concern continue for an extended period of time, our
ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target
business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be
materially adversely affected.
Change of Control
On September 23, 2020, Activist Investing LLC (the "Seller"), the owner of
116,697,438 shares of common stock (the "Shares") upon conversion of $1,453,811
of promissory notes acquired by the Seller after the Seller purchased control of
the Company in July 2020, agreed to sell the Shares to Liu Lina (the
"Purchaser), a resident of China, for $255,000, pursuant to an Amended and
Restated Stock Purchase Agreement (the "A&R Stock Purchase Agreement"). The
first agreement between the Seller and the Purchase was superseded because it
had the incorrect name of the Seller. The Seller is owned 100% owned by David
Lazar. The Shares represent approximately 99.0% of the 117,876,762 shares of
Class A Common Stock of our outstanding shares of common stock.
The sale of the Shares to Ms. Liu was completed on October 2, 2020. Ms. Liu, as
the 99.0% majority stockholder of then appointed as directors of the Company the
following three persons: Wang Jun, Wang Yang and Bai Zhihui as directors and Ms.
Liu as CFO, Treasurer and Secretary (together, the "Designees"). As a result,
there was a change of control of the Company; and the change of management was
completed on or about October 12, 2020 (the "New Management Date"), ten (10)
days after the Company's Information Statement pursuant to SEC Rule 14f-1 was
filed with the SEC and mailed to the Company's stockholders. There is no family
relationship or other relationship between the Seller and the Purchaser.
In connection with the sale under the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Lazar
resigned as an officer and director, and John B. Lowy and Dovid Kotkes have
resigned as directors, and have appointed the Designees as our directors, on the
New Management Date. As a result thereof, the Designees became the directors of
the Company, on or about October 10, 2020.

Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended and Six Months Ended August 31,
2020 compared to the Three Months Ended and Six Months Ended August 31, 2019
Operating expenses for the three months ended and the six months ended August
31, 2020 were approximately $21,000 and $28,000 compared to $8,000 and $17,000
for the three months ended and the six months ended August 31, 2019 due to
comparable levels of activities on both periods. Other income (expense) was
approximately $305,000 for the 2020 six month period compared to $(52,000)
during the same period ended August 31, 2019. The increase in other was
attributable to gains from debt extinguishment and gains from settlement of
accounts payable for the period ended August 31, 2020.
During the six months ended August 31, 2020 we recorded a net income of $277,000
compared to a net loss of $69,000 for the six months ended August 31, 2019.
Our expenses, particularly professional and consulting fees, can increase
significantly if we are actively engaged in negotiations for a merger
transaction. There can be no assurance that any of our activities will result
in any transaction.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going concern
As indicated in the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, at August 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $-0- of
cash, negative working capital of approximately $1,484,000 and an accumulated
deficit of $28,812 ,000. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company
is in need of additional financing or a strategic arrangement in order to
continue its planned activities for the fiscal year that began on March 1, 2020.
The Company's plans to deal with this uncertainty are described above in
"Company Activities." Management's plans to raise capital, enter into a
strategic arrangement or sell or merge with an unrelated business have not been
successful to date and there can be no assurance that management's plans can be
realized at all. Historically, substantially all of the Company's financing, has
come from stockholder loans. There can be no assurance that additional
stockholder loans will be extended to the Company.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue operations as a going concern. No adjustments have been made in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements to the amounts and
classification of assets and liabilities which could result should the Company
be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no material off balance sheet arrangements that are likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
resources or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Principles
We have identified critical accounting principles that affect our interim
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements by considering accounting
policies that involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments as
well as considering newly adopted principals. See Note 2 - Summary Of
Significant Accounting Policies.
As of August 31, 2020, the impact of COVID-19 on our business continued to
unfold. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions carry a higher degree
of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional
information becomes available, our estimates may change in future periods.
