          MABV issued an interest-bearing note in the amount of 5,530,525             
          Dutch Guilders with 9.5-percent interest due quarterly and the              
          principal due in 10 years on presentation of the promissory note.           
          MABV also issued a non-interest-bearing note for $8.4 million               
          (U.S.) that was payable in 10 years upon presentation of the                
          note.                                                                       
               MABV immediately transferred the assets it received from               
          MANV to MDT for a total consideration of $14 million.  Of this              
          amount, $3.5 million was paid with MDT stock and $10.5 million              
          was paid with an interest-bearing note.  The interest-bearing               
          note had a rate of 10 percent.  The interest was due quarterly,             
          and the principal was due in 5 years.                                       
               After the section 351 transfers, MTNV held all the stock of            
          MTBV, which held all the stock of MSI.  MANV held all the stock             
          of MABV, which held all the stock of MDT.  The C&L September 30,            
          1988, letter to the Inspector of Taxes stated that Manver held              
          all the shares of both MANV and MTNV.                                       
               MSI and MDT signed licensing contracts with Manver that were           
          substantially the same as the Manver-MTNV/MANV contracts.  The              
          MSI and MDT documents were dated August 1, 1987, and December 1,            
          1987, respectively.  MSI and MDT signed new management contracts            
          with Eurotor dated August 1, 1987, and December 1, 1987,                    
          respectively.
