NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Tech Laboratories, Inc.
("the Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with Item
310(b) of Regulation SB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
the three and six months ended, June 30, 2006 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December
31, 2006. These unaudited financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended, December 31,
2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. LONG-TERM CONVERTIBLE DEBT
On May 18, 2004, the Company issued an additional $250,000 convertible
debenture at a rate of 5.0% due on May 18, 2007.
On December 27, 2005, the convertible debt of $250,000 was renegotiated
with an additional $300,000 plus accrued interest for a total amount of
$537,220. The interest rate is 15% per annum and is due upon demand.
Simultaneously with the financing agreement, we issued an Amended and
Restated Convertible Debenture to the Investor in the amount of $537,220 to
cure the default under the Debenture issued to the Investor on April 5,
2005 in the original amount of $420,514 for not filing a registration
statement by the initial filing deadline (the "Amended Debenture"). The
Amended Debenture bears a 15% interest rate and a maturity date of December
27, 2006. The debenture is convertible into shares of our common stock at a
conversion price equal to the lesser of (a) $0.00525 per share or (b)
ninety percent of the lowest Closing Bid Price of the common stock during
the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, as quoted
by Bloomberg, LP. We are committed to filing an SB-2 Registration Statement
with the SEC within 90 days of funding. There are penalty provisions should
the filing not become effective within 150 days of filing.
In accordance with EITF 98-5, the Company recognized an imbedded beneficial
conversion feature present in the Notes. The Company recognized and
measured an aggregate of $149,902 of the proceeds, which is equal to the
intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to
additional paid-in capital and a discount against the Notes.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
Plan of Operation
On July 11, 2005 (the "Effective Date"), we finalized a Settlement Agreement and
Release (the "Agreement") with Bernard Ciongoli and Earl Bjorndal (the
"Settlement Parties"). In connection with the Agreement, Mr. Ciongoli resigned
from his positions as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
Officer, and member of the Board of Directors of the Company, and agreed to the
cancellation of 17,931,806 of his shares of our common stock. Earl Bjorndal
resigned from his positions as Vice President and member of the Board of
Directors of the Company, and agreed to the cancellation of 8,044,445 of his
shares of our common stock. The parties agreed to the transfer of all of the
Company's assets, including all technologies and product lines, to the
Settlement Parties in exchange for the cancellation of all outstanding
obligations owed to the Settlement Parties, including past due salaries and
loans due to them, the cancellation of the above mentioned shares, and the
assumption of certain liabilities of the Company and the lease by the Settlement
Parties. As part of the Agreement, we agreed to transfer all of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock of Tech Logistics, Inc., our subsidiary to
Bernard Ciongoli.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Settlement Parties granted us a seven-year
license in the transferred technology, pursuant to which we shall have the right
to sell the products developed from the DynaTrax technology as a dealer to its
customers at a dealer price of 25% off list price. We will also receive a
royalty of 5% of the profits per year for the sale of DynaTrax products. In
exchange for all of the Company's assets, the Settlement Parties agreed to the
cancellation of all outstanding obligations owed to the Settlement Parties,
including past due salaries and loans due to them; the cancellation of the above
mentioned shares; and the assumption of certain liabilities of the Company and
the lease by the Settlement Parties.
The Registrant is continuing its efforts to locate a merger Candidate for the
purpose of a merger. It is possible that the registrant will be successful in
locating such a merger candidate and closing such merger. However, if the
registrant cannot effect a non-cash acquisition, the registrant may have to
raise funds from a private offering of its securities under Rule 506 of
Regulation D. There is no assurance the registrant would obtain any such equity
funding.
We will attempt to locate and negotiate with a business entity for the
combination of that target company with us. The combination will normally take
the form of a merger, stock-for-stock exchange or stock-for-assets exchange. In
most instances the target company will wish to structure the business
combination to be within the definition of a tax-free reorganization under
Section 351 or Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. No
assurances can be given that we will be successful in locating or negotiating
with any target company.
A business combination with a target company will normally involve the transfer
to the target company of the majority of our issued and outstanding common
stock, and the substitution by the target company of its own management and
board of directors.
No assurances can be given that we will be able to enter into a business
combination, as to the terms of a business combination, or as to the nature of
the target company.

Results of Operations
Sales were $-0- for the three and six months ended, June 30, 2006 as
compared to $17,166 and $91,280 for the similar periods of 2005.
Cost of sales was $-0- for the three and six months ended, June 30, 2006
because there were no sales.
Selling, administrative, and general expenses decreased by $81,774 for the
three months ended, June 30, 2006, compared to the same period of 2005, and
decreased by $23,817 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same
period of 2005 because operations has ceased as a result of the settlement
agreement.
Loss from operations for the three months ended, June 30, 2006, was
$129,644 compared to the loss of $215,932 for the same period in 2005. Loss from
operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $299,490 compared to the
loss of $254,211 for the same period in 2005.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
None
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operating activities utilized cash of $121,939 during the six
months ended, June 30, 2006, as compared to $102,220 during the six months
ended, June 30, 2005.
As a result of the continuing operating losses and negative cash flow
experienced during 2004, 2005 and the first half of 2006, Tech Labs has a
tenuous liquidity position. If alternative financing is not obtained or a
suitable merger candidate is not found, substantial doubt exists about Tech
Labs' ability to continue as a going concern.
8
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including
our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an
evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined
under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2006. Based on
this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer
have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or
submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's
rules and forms and that our disclosure and controls are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit
under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or
persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial
reporting that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On July 31, 2002, Tawfik Khalil and Amneh Khalil filed a lawsuit in the Superior
Court of Passaic County, New Jersey, against Glen Venza, a Company part-time
employee, Tech Labs, and certain other parties for property damages and personal
injuries. The case arose from a car accident involving Mr. Venza and the
plaintiffs, which occurred while Mr. Venza was performing certain duties for
Tech Labs in a vehicle Mr. Venza borrowed from a third party. Tech Labs has only
been named as a party to the personal injuries, and not for property damages,
and believes it is covered for the accident by its insurance policy.The parties
have entered into a settlement agreement in which Tech Labs is obligated to pay
$5,000 to plaintiff.
On July 30, 2003, a former director and a former employee filed a joint lawsuit
in Superior Court of New Jersey, Passaic County, against us for consulting fees
and expenses, respectively. In the same lawsuit, W.T. Sports filed a claim for a
commission owed on sales due from a licensing agreement with us. The claims by
the former director and former employee are for about $10,000 and we deny any
liability under these claims and are defending the lawsuit. With regard to W.T.
Sports, our agreement has an arbitration in case of dispute and therefore we are
attempting to move this case to arbitration. We believe that we have a
counterclaim, which is far in excess of the amount they claim we owe for the
licensing fees. On November 11, 2004, an arbitration hearing took place. On
December 31, 2004, the arbitrator awarded $35,148 to WT Sports. Tech Labs can
continue to manufacture the system in the United States.
On June 30, 2004, the law firm of Stursberg & Veith, former counsel to Tech
Laboratories, Inc., filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York claiming that the plaintiff delivered certain good
and valuable services to Tech laboratories and is owed $161,179.26 plus
interest, costs, and disbursements for each cause of action, and other and
further relief as the Court may deem necessary. The complaint alleges four
causes of action including an unpaid account, stated breach of contract, quantim
meruit, and unjust enrichment. We disagree with the amount of the unpaid balance
owed to the plaintiff. We have filed a counterclaim for overcharging by the
plaintiff. On December 5, 2005, a judgment was rendered by the court to make
payment of $204,834.10, including interest.
Item 2. Changes in Securities.
On April 3, 2006, we issued 5,555,556 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $15,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $15,000 or $.0027 per share.
On April 7, 2006, we issued 4,761,905 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $10,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $10,000 or $.0021 per share.
On April 28, 2006, we issued 7,317,073 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $15,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $15,000 or $.00205 per share.
On May 3, 2006, we issued 7,317,073 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $15,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $15,000 or $.00205 per share.

Item 2. Changes in Securities (Cont'd)
On May 17, 2006, we issued 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $10,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $10,000 or $.0020 per share.
On June 7, 2006, we issued 6,535,948 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $10,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $10,000 or $.00153 per share.
On June 23, 2006, we issued 4,605,263 shares of our common stock to Montgomery
Equity Partners, Inc. based on the conversion of $7,000 of a convertible
promissory note. The issuance was valued at $7,000 or $.00152 per share.
All of the above issued shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from
registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. No
commissions were paid for the issuance of such shares. All of the above
issuances of shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section
4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance of such shares by us did
not involve a public offering. All of the shareholders were sophisticated
investors and had access to information normally provided in a prospectus
regarding us. The offering was not a "public offering" as defined in Section
4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of
the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not
undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number
of investors. In addition, all shareholders had the necessary investment intent
as required by Section 4(2) since he agreed to and received a share certificate
bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of
the 1933 Securities Act. These restrictions ensure that these shares would not
be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a
"public offering." Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the
requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
of 1933 for the above transactions.
Item 3. Defaults by the Company Upon its Senior Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
None.
Item 5. Other Information.
None.
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports of Form 8-K
On January 10, 2006, the Company filed an 8K based on a change in the Board
of Directors of the Company.
