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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.

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. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Isolagen Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C.

Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION, BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION Isolagen Technologies, Inc. ("Isolagen" or the "Company") is a Delaware corporation incorporated on December 28, 1995. Isolagen was organized to research, develop and market products and services related to a living system of cultured and expanded autologous fibroblasts with an exacellar matrix that replenishes the dermis and subcutaneous tissues (hereinafter referred to as the "Technologies"). During 1999, all commercial sales of the Company's products and services were suspended until completion of a formal approval process by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Through December 31, 2000, the Company has been primarily engaged in developing its initial product technology, recruiting personnel and raising capital. In the course of its development activities, the Company has sustained losses and expects such losses to continue through at least 2001. The Company will finance its operations primarily through its existing cash, future financing and revenues. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Interim Financial Information The financial statements as of June 30, 2001 and for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited. In the opinion of the Company's management, such unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary, which include only normal recurring items, to present fairly the information set forth therein. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period of a full year. Statement of cash flows For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Concentration of credit risk The Company maintains its cash with a major U.S. domestic bank. The amounts held in this bank exceed the insured limit of $100,000 from time to time. The terms of these deposits are on demand to minimize risk. The Company has not incurred losses related to these deposits. The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the development stage including, but not limited to, development of new products, development of markets and distribution channels, dependence on key personnel, and the ability to obtain additional capital as needed to fund its product plans. The Company has a limited operating history and has yet to generate any significant revenues from customers. To date, the Company has been funded by private debt and equity financings. The Company's ultimate success is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital and to successfully develop and market its products. The products developed by the Company require approvals from the United States FDA or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance that all of the Company's products will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company was denied such approvals or such approvals were delayed, it may have a materially adverse impact on the Company. 13 11 Isolagen Technologies, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Property and equipment Property and equipment, consisting primarily of lab equipment, computer equipment, office furniture and fixtures is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to five years subject to half year convention. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged against income as incurred. Inventory At December 31, 1999, inventory consisted of skin creams and related products sold to consumers. During 2000, the Company recorded an obsolence reserve equal to the total ending inventory balance of $17,271 due to uncertainty regarding shelf-life. Earnings per share data Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated based on the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share also gives effect to the dilutive effect of stock options warrants and convertible preferred stock (calculated based on the treasury stock method). The Company does not present diluted earnings per share for years on which it incurred net losses as the effect of potentially dilutive shares from convertible debt is antidilutive. Income taxes An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between income tax and financial reporting and principally relate to recognition of revenue and expenses in different periods for financial and tax accounting purposes and are measured using currently enacted tax rates and laws. In addition, a deferred tax asset can be generated by net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs"). If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes license and other upfront fees on a ratable basis over the term of the respective agreement. Milestone payments are recognized upon successful completion of a performance milestone event. Any amounts received in advance of performance are recorded as deferred revenue. Research and development expenses Research and development include direct costs, research-related overhead, and costs associated with sponsored research which are charged to operations as incurred. 14 12 ISOLAGEN TECHNOLOGIES, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recent accounting pronouncements In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141"), which establishes financial accounting and reporting for business combinations and supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations, and FASB Statement No. 38, Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for using one method, the purchase method. The provisions of SFAS No. 141 apply to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 is expected to have no material impact on financial reporting and related disclosures of the Company. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No. 142"), which establishes financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition, and after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 142 during the first quarter of fiscal 2002, and is in the process of evaluating the impact of implementation on the financial position of the Company. NOTE 3 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is comprised of: December 31, -------------------------------- 2000 1999 -------------- ------------- Lab Equipment $ 52,454 $ 52,454 Computer Equipment 6,326 6,326 Office Equipment 25,516 25,516 ---------- ---------- 84,296 84,296 Less: Accumulated depreciation (52,349) (36,016) ---------- ---------- Property and equipment, net $ 31,947 $ 48,280 ---------- ---------- NOTE 4 - NOTES PAYABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS The Company has unsecured notes payable to two shareholders. The notes bear interest at 7.5% and are due on demand. 15 13 ISOLAGEN TECHNOLOGIES, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE DEBT Convertible debt consists of the following: December 31, -------------------------------- 2000 1999 -------------- ------------- Convertible notes payable to individuals, interest ranging from 7.5% to 10% due in quarterly installments, convertible to 1% of the Company's outstanding common stock per $100,000 of principal converted, principal and all accrued interest due at maturity on August 31, 2003. $ 850,000 $ 850,000 Convertible notes payable to individuals, interest at 7.5% due in quarterly installments, convertible to 1% of the Company's outstanding common stock per $100,000 of principal converted, due on demand. 600,000 400,000 ----------- ------------ 1,450,000 1,250,000 Less: current maturities (600,000) (400,000) ----------- ------------ Convertible debt, less current maturities $ 850,000 $ 850,000 ----------- ------------ NOTE 6 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The components of the Company's deferred tax assets at December 31, 2000 and 1999 are as follows: December 31, ------------------------------- 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- Deferred tax assets: Loss carryforwards $ 887,114 $ 617,369 Deferred tax liabilities: Deferred revenue 122,400 -- ----------- ----------- 764,714 617,369 Less: Valuation allowance (764,714) (617,369) ----------- ----------- $ -- $ -- ----------- ----------- As of December 31, 2000, the Company has generated NOLs of $2,609,159 available to reduce future income taxes. These carryforwards begin to expire in 2017. A change in ownership, as defined by federal income tax regulations, could significantly limit the Company's ability to utilize its carryforwards. Additionally, because federal tax laws limit the time during which the NOLs may be applied against future taxes, the Company may not be able to take full advantage of the NOLs to reduce future income taxes if it fails to generate taxable income prior to expiration of the NOLs. As the Company has had cumulative losses and there is no assurance of future taxable income, valuation allowances have been recorded to fully offset the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2000 and 1999. The valuation allowance increased $147,345 during 2000 due to the Company's current period net loss. 16 14 ISOLAGEN TECHNOLOGIES, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating leases The Company leases office space, office furniture and fixtures and equipment under noncancelable operating lease arrangements for various periods ranging up to five years. Future minimum lease payments are as follows: Year Ending December 31, ------------ 2001 $ 105,850 2002 108,542 2003 64,963 ---------- Total future minimum lease payments $ 279,355 ---------- Lease rental expenses were approximately $105,000 and $99,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. License agreement Effective July 1, 2000, the Company granted exclusive rights to develop and market its Technologies and products within Japan. Should the development efforts result in a marketable product, the Company will receive royalties based on product sales. Upon execution of the license agreement, the Company received an initial up-front fee of $400,000 which was deferred and will be recognized on a ratable basis over the five year term of the agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company recognized $40,000 of contract revenues pursuant to this agreement. Litigation The Company is involved in a legal dispute with one of its vendors. The full amount of disputed invoices is included in accounts payable at December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, resolution of the dispute should not have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Company. NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTIES The Company has notes payable and convertible debt due to officers and shareholders. Interest of $15,188 and $15,000 was paid to shareholders during 2000 and 1999, respectively. 17 15 ISOLAGEN TECHNOLOGIES, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Acquisition and merger On August 10, 2001, the Company completed an acquisition agreement and plan of merger with American Financial Holdings, Inc. ("AFH") and Gemini IV, Inc. ("Gemini"). This merger was initiated in December 2000. AFH was a non-operating, public shell company with limited assets. Consequently, the substance of the merger transaction was a capital transaction rather than a business combination. The transaction was equivalent to the issuance of stock by AFH for the net assets of the Company and Gemini, accompanied by a recapitalization and private placement of common stock of AFH. The accounting is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangibles are recorded. Subsequent to the merger, the Company continued as a wholly-owned subsidiary of AFH. Proceeds from the recapitalization and private placement totaling $2,020,000 are sufficient to meet the Company's short-term cash requirements. Operating lease In September 2001, the Company terminated its lease for office space and initiated relocation of its primary offices to Houston, Texas. 18 (b) PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
