Forward-Looking Statements

This annual report includes "forward-looking statements." All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this annual report that address activities, events or developments which we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. The words "believe", "intend", "expect", "anticipate", "project", "estimate", "predict" and similar expressions are also intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements address, among others, such issues as:

· future prices of and demand for our products,
· future earnings and cash flow,
· future plans and capital expenditures,
· expansion and other development trends of the engine industry,
· expansion and growth of our business and operations, and
· our prospective operational and financial information.

These statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate in particular circumstances.

However, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depends on a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including the risks set forth in "Item 3-Key Information-Risk Factors" and the following:

· fluctuations in prices of our products,
· potential acquisitions and other business opportunities,
· general economic, market and business conditions, and
· other risks and factors beyond our control.

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this annual report are qualified by these cautionary statements. We cannot assure you that the actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected effect on us or our business or operations.

Foreign Private Issuer Status and Currencies and Exchange Rates

Foreign Private Issuer Status:

Reg Technologies, Inc., (hereinafter referred to as the "Company”, or “we”, “it”, “our” or such other context as may be applicable), is a Canadian corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. Less than 50% of our common stock is held by United States citizens and residents, our business is administered principally outside the United States; and more than 50% of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, we believe that we qualify as a "foreign private issuer" for continuing to report regarding the registration of our common stock using this Form 20-F annual report format.

Currencies and Exchange Rates:

We publish our financial statements in Canadian dollars. Unless otherwise indicated, monetary amounts referred to in this annual report are in Canadian dollars. Unless otherwise indicated, all translations from Canadian dollars to US dollars have been made at a rate of CDN$ 1.5681 to US$ 1.00, the noon buying rate as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Noon Buying Rate") on April 30, 2002. We do not represent that Canadian dollar or US dollar amounts could be converted into US dollars or Canadian dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate, the rates below or at all. On October 16, 2002, the Noon Buying Rate was CDN$ 1.5840 to US$ 1.00. The following table sets forth noon buying rate for US dollars in New York City for cable transfers in Canadian dollars as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the periods indicated:

ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION

A.         SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

The summary consolidated financial information set forth below should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Consolidated Financial Statements, as of and for the years ended April 30, 2002 and 2001, together with the notes thereto, which appear elsewhere in this annual report. The Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended April 30, 2002 and 2001 have been audited by

5


Manning Elliott. The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. See Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP.

The selected financial data set forth in the following table is expressed in Canadian dollars. Since June 1, 1970, the Government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar. At April 30, 2002, US$1.00 was equal to approximately C$1.5681. The exchange rates for the past five fiscal years ended April 30, are presented in the introduction to this registration statement.

The following represents our selected financial data for each of the past five fiscal years, ending on April 30. The data presented is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and expressed in Canadian dollars:

Not applicable.

D.         RISK FACTORS

The occurrence of any of the following risks could hurt our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment You should carefully consider the following risks and the other information in this Report and our other filings with the SEC before you decide to invest in us or to maintain or increase your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also adversely impact and impair our business. If any of the following risks actually occur,

6


our business, results of operations, or financial condition would likely suffer. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Development Stage Enterprise. We are a development stage enterprise and is subject to all of the attendant business risks associated with a development stage enterprise, including constraints on financial and personnel resources, lack of established credit facilities, and uncertainties regarding product development and future revenues. We will continue to be subject to all the risks attendant to a development stage enterprise for the foreseeable future, including competition, complications and setbacks in the development program, and the need for additional capital.

We have reported losses in each year since its inception. At April 30, 2002, we had an accumulated deficit of ($11,364,635) in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our history consists almost entirely of development of its products funded entirely from the sale of our Common Stock in the absence of revenues. We anticipate that it will continue to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next 12 months and expects cumulative losses to increase as our development efforts expand.

Although we anticipate receiving future revenues from the sales of engines or the licensing of our technology or pursuant to a joint venture, we have received minimal revenues in preparation for licensing or joint venture activities, and there are no assurances that significant revenues will be derived from this activity in the future. We have received no revenues from sales of any of the products under development. There can be no assurance as to when or if we will be able to develop significant sources of revenue or whether our operations will become profitable, even if we are able to commercialize any product. See "Operating and Financial Review and Prospects," and Notes to Financial Statements.

Ability to develop product. We have no assurance at this time that a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users. The RC/DC Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines that competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate its potential markets. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.

Additional Financing will be Required. Our expectations as to the amount of funds needed for development and the timing of the need for these funds is based on our current operating plan, which can change as a result of many factors, and we could require additional funding sooner than anticipated. Our cash needs may vary materially from those now planned because of results of development or changes in the focus and direction of our development program, competitive and technological advances, results of laboratory and field testing, requirements of regulatory agencies and other factors.

We have no credit facility or other committed sources of capital. To the extent capital resources are insufficient to meet future capital requirements, we will have to raise additional funds to continue our development and operations. There can be no assurance that such funds will be available on favorable terms, or at all. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds on unattractive terms. Our inability to raise capital would have a material adverse effect on us.

Significant Losses for the Foreseeable Future. We expect to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and cannot be certain when or if we will achieve profitability. Failure to become and remain profitable will adversely affect the value of our Common Shares and our ability to raise capital and continue operations.

7


Product/Market Acceptance. Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users. The RC/DC Engine and the AVFCS which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines which our competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate our potential markets. A number of rotary engines have been designed over the past 70 years but only one, the Wankel, has been able to achieve mechanical practicality and any significant market acceptance. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or our potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine or the AFVCS.

No Formal Market Survey. We have not conducted a formal market survey but statistics available on the aircraft, marine and industrial markets alone indicate an annual market potential of more than one hundred million dollars.

Lack Of Experience To Manufacture Or Market Product. Assuming we are successful in developing the Rand Cam products, we presently have no proven ability either to manufacture or market the engine. There is no assurance that we will be able to profitably manufacture and market engines.

Going Concern Disclosure In Independent Auditor's Report. The report of our independent auditors with respect to our financial statements included in this Form 20-F includes a "going concern" qualification, indicating that our losses and deficits in working capital and shareholders' equity raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. See " Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and Notes to Financial Statements.

Our Dependence on Skilled Personnel. We are dependent on certain members of our management and engineering staff, the loss of services of one or more of whom could adversely affect our business. In particular, we depend on the abilities and continued participation of Pat Badgley and other key personnel who have been instrumental in bringing the Rand Cam engine to its present state of development. The loss of any of these key individuals could hamper the successful development of the engine. Our present officers and directors have other full-time positions or part-time employment unrelated to our business. Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us. We do not have "key man" life insurance on such officers and currently have no plans to obtain such insurance. See "Management". Our success also depends on our ability to attract and retain additional skilled employees.

Dependence on Consultants and Outside Manufacturing Facilities. Since our present plans do not provide for a significant technical staff or the establishment of manufacturing facilities, we will be primarily dependent on others to perform these functions and to provide the requisite expertise and quality control. There is no assurance that such persons or institutions will be available when needed at affordable prices. It will likely cost more to have independent companies do research and manufacturing than for us to handle these resources.

Protection of Intellectual Property. Our business depends on the protection of our intellectual property and may suffer if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. The success of our business depends on our ability to patent our engine. Currently, we have been granted several U.S. Patents. We cannot provide assurance that our patents will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, that the rights granted under the patents will give us competitive advantages or that our patent applications will be granted.

Product Errors. Engines such as the ones proposed by us and our related planned applications may contain errors or defects, especially when first introduced, or when new versions are released. Our products may not be free from errors after commercial release has occurred. Any errors that are discovered after such commercial release could result in loss of revenue or delay in market acceptance, diversion of development resources, damage to our reputation, increased service and warranty costs and liability claims. Any defects in these products could

8


adversely affect the operation of and market for our products, reduce revenue, increase costs and damage our reputation.

Competition. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. These companies possess greater technical resources and market recognition than us, and have management, financial and other resources not yet available to us. Existing engines are likely to be perceived by many customers as superior or more reliable than any new product until it has been in the marketplace for a period of time. There is no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively with these companies.

Market prices for our products may decline in the future. We anticipate that market prices for our main products may decline in the future due to increased competition. We expect significant competition among local and international companies, including from new entrants, may continue to drive equipment prices lower. We also expect that there may be increases in promotional spending by companies in our industry which would also contribute to increasing movement of customers between competitors. Such increased competition and the resulting decline of market prices for our products would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Rapid technological change. New technology or refinement of existing technology could render our Rand Cam products less attractive or obsolete. Our success depends in part upon its ability to anticipate changes in technology and industry standards and to successfully develop and introduce new and improved engines on a timely basis. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Timing of new product introductions and lack of market acceptance for our new products. Our future success may be dependent on the success of our products and services. The success of our business depends on a variety of factors, including:

·
the quality and reliability of our products and services;
·
our ability to develop new products and services superior to that of our competitors;
·
our ability to establish licensing relationships and other strategic alliances;
·
our pricing policies and the pricing policies of our competitors;
·
our ability to introduce new products and services before our competitors;
·
our ability to successfully advertise our products and services; and
·
general economic trends.

Volatility of The Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”) or the TSX Venture Exchange may adversely affect the price of the Common Stock. Certain stocks listed on the OTC BB and/or the TSX Venture Exchange have recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations and decreases which have adversely affected the market price of our and other stocks listed on the OTC BB and/or the TSX Venture Exchange without any regard to the underlying fundamentals of such stocks. These broad market fluctuations, which may occur in the future, as well as issues more specifically related to our business activities or prospects, our financial performance, intellectual property, may continue to adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.

Product liability. Product liability claims asserted against us in the future could hurt our business. If a customer suffers damage from our products, the customer could sue us on product liability or related grounds, claim damages for data loss or make other claims. We currently do not carry product liability insurance. While we have not been sued on product liability grounds to date, a successful product liability or related claim brought against us could harm our business.

9


We do not expect to pay cash dividends. We intend to retain any future earnings to finance our business and operations and any future growth. Therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Potential lack of attractive investment targets. Continued volatility of stock prices on the OTC BB and the TSX Venture Exchange may have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise capital on the OTC BB or the TSX Venture Exchange or by private investment, and the price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially.

Other Factors. Our areas of business may be affected from time to time by such matters as changes in general economic conditions, changes in laws and regulations, taxes, tax laws, prices and costs, and other factors of a general nature which may have an adverse effect on our business.

Conflict of Interest. Some of our current officers and directors have other unrelated full-time positions or part-time employment. Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote its time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.         HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT

We were originally incorporated on October 6, 1982 as Reg Resources Corp. under a perpetual charter pursuant to the British Columbia Company Act by registration of our Memorandum and Articles. On February 23, 1993 we changed our name to Reg Technologies Inc. in order to better reflect our main area of business development. We did not consolidate our shares at the time our name was changed.

Its authorized capital consists of 45,000,000 shares consisting of 30,000,000 common shares without par value, 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $1.00 per share and 5,000,000 class "A" non-voting shares without par value. Of the 30,000,000 common shares without par value, 16,578,371 shares were issued and outstanding as of April 30, 2001 and the same number of shares were issued and outstanding as of the date of this Form 20-F. There are no Preferred or Class "A" Shares currently outstanding. All the Issuer's outstanding shares are Common Shares. They are not subject to any future call or assessment and they all have equal voting rights. There are no special rights or restrictions of any nature attached to any of the shares and they all rank equally, as to all benefits that might accrue to the holder thereof.

Our head office is located at #1103 -11871 Horseshoe Way, Richmond, B.C., V7A 5H5, Canada. Our telephone number is 604-278-5996 and our fax number is 604-278-3409.

We made our initial public offering of 500,000 Common Shares in July 1983 at a price of $0.50 per share to residents of British Columbia. Following the completion of that offering, our shares were listed on the Vancouver Stock Exchange (which is now the TSX Venture Exchange, previously the Canadian Venture Exchange).

We were initially involved in the mineral development and oil and gas business. The mineral development business produced no revenues from operations and the oil and gas business produced only limited revenues.

On May 23, 1986 we entered an agreement which was amended October 20, 1986 ("Initial Agreements") among ourself, Rand Cam-Engine Corp (a private company owned by James L. McCann, the inventor of the Rand Cam Engine) and James L. McCann. Under this agreement we acquired a 40% interest in a company to be formed, by paying $50,000 and agreeing to expend $200,000 on research and development pertaining to the Rand Cam Engine, which utilizes a new type of design for a rotary internal combustion engine.

10


The company to be formed referred to above was incorporated in November 1989, by registration of its Memorandum and Articles pursuant to the British Columbia Company Act as Rand Energy Group Inc. (REGI), which company would hold all the rights, agreements and patents to the Rand Cam Engine. We acquired 1,200,000 of the issued and outstanding shares of REGI while Rand Cam-Engine Corp. acquired 1,800,000 of the issued and outstanding shares.

The Initial Agreements were superseded by an "Energy Group Acquisition Agreement" dated March 28, 1990 and a "Share Purchase Agreement" dated March 28, 1990 whereby James L. McCann and Rand Cam- Engine Corp. agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in and to the Rand Cam Engine to REGI for 1,800,000 common shares of REGI in consideration for certain covenants and warranties along with the $250,000 expended in accordance with the Initial Agreements. We were allotted 1,200,000 common shares of REGI.

These agreements resulted in us owning 40% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rand Technologies Inc., with the balance of 60% being owned by Rand Cam-Engine Corp. Pursuant to an amalgamation agreement between the shareholders of Rand Technologies Inc. and REGI, the two companies were amalgamated effective July 31, 1993. The amalgamated company is called Rand Energy Group Inc. and retains the same ownership structure.

Under an agreement dated April 27, 1993, between ourself, REGI, Rand Cam-Engine Corporation and James L. McCann (the "Agreement"), Rand Cam-Engine Corporation agreed to sell to us 330,000 shares of REGI, representing a further 11% interest in REGI. In consideration for a controlling interest in REGI, we agreed to pay Rand Cam-Engine Corporation $50,000, issue 600,000 shares of our Common Stock (the "Purchase Price") and grant a participating royalty to a maximum amount of $10,000,000, ("Participating Royalty"). On July 14, commencing in 1995 and for each consecutive year thereafter, the Participating Royalty is to be paid in the form of instalments by us. A minimum of $50,000 per year must be paid by us to the Rand Cam-Engine Corporation. As part of the minimum payment, we are to pay to Rand Cam-Engine Corporation, 5% of any after-tax net profits receive by us from REGI.

Pursuant to the Agreement, we were and are to distribute the 600,000 Common Shares to Rand Cam-Engine Corporation as follows: (a) 100,000 shares upon receiving regulatory approval; (b) a further 100,000 shares within five days of receiving written approval of the then Vancouver Stock Exchange following the successful testing of the Alpha version of the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Engine, and an independent engineer's report recommending further expenditures be made.

Our stock currently trades on the OTC BB under the symbol REGRF and on the TSX Venture Exchange as RRE.

B.         BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Nature of the Company’s Operations

We are engaged in the business of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine known as the Rand CamTM Direct Charge (“RC/DC”) Engine, which is a variation of the Original Engine. The Original Engine is an axial vane rotary engine, the worldwide marketing rights to which are held by RAND. A United States patent was issued for the RC/DC Engine on July 4, 1995, and assigned to us. Since no marketable product has yet been developed, we have not received any revenues from operations.

The RC/DC Engine is based upon the Original Engine patented in 1983. Brian Cherry, a former officer and director of the Company, has done additional development work on the Original Engine that resulted in significant changes and improvements for which the U.S. patent has been issued and assigned to us. We believe the RC/DC Engine offers important simplification from the basic Original Engine, which will make it easier to manufacture and will also allow it to operate more efficiently.

Based upon testing work performed by independent organizations on prototype models, we believe that the RC/DC Engine holds significant potential in a number of other applications ranging from small stationary equipment to automobiles and aircraft. In additional to its potential use as an internal combustion engine, the RC/DC Engine design is being employed in the development of several types of compressors, pumps, expanders and other applications.

To date, several prototypes of the RC/DC Engine have been tested and additional development and testing work is continuing. We believe that such development and testing will continue until a commercially feasible design is perfected. There is no assurance at this time, however, that such a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. If a commercially feasible design is perfected, we do, however, expect to derive revenues from licensing the Technology relating to the RC/DC Engine regardless of whether

12


actual commercial production is ever achieved. There is no assurance at this time, however, that revenues will ever be received from licensing the Technology even if it does prove to be commercially feasible.

We believe that a large market would exist for a practical rotary engine which could be produced at a competitive price and which could provide a good combination of fuel efficiency, power density and exhaust emissions.

Based on the market potential, we believe the RC\DC Engine is well suited for application to internal combustion engines, pumps, compressors and expansion engines. The mechanism can be scaled to match virtually any size requirement. This flexibility opens the door to large markets being developed.

We are currently testing prototypes for these products including air pumps for fuel cell applications and air conditioning compressors. Our strategy is to develop engines and compressors for low to medium horsepower applications, then apply the Technology to larger applications. We plan to license the Technology or enter into joint venture arrangements for other specific applications. The licensee or joint venture partners will then provide funding for research and development of the specific applications.

Products

Rand Cam Technology

Rand Cam Cold Turbine Engine

On March 13, 2001, we announced that analysis has been completed on a RAND CAM COLD TURBINE ENGINE to generate 1000 horsepower at 1800 rpm for the electrical power generation market. Preliminary drawings of this engine have been completed. A presentation has been prepared to visually demonstrate the technology so that we can generate interest and obtain funding to build and test this new engine. A dry run of the presentation was presented to a representative of one of the largest engine manufacturers in North America and the representative is assisting in setting up a presentation for its top management. Two additional presentations have been made to the management of this engine manufacturing company and the product is being reviewed by its engineering department. This presentation will be "taken on the road" and shown to additional major engine manufacturers and end users such as utility companies to solicit interest. Summarizing the presentation, the RAND CAM COLD TURBINE ENGINE compared to the best available MICROTURBINE ENGINE, has 32 percent better efficiency and generates 91 percent more power from the same airflow while retaining all of the emissions advantages of the MICROTURBINE ENGINE.

An analysis has been completed to show the potential of the RAND CAM COLD TURBINE ENGINE in aircraft application at the 400 horsepower output level so that we can work with several groups that have expressed interest in the Rand Cam Engine at this rating for aircraft and marine markets.

On July 12, 2001 we announced that our Engineer, Patrick Badgley, has completed a proposal to build a residential Cold Turbine Rand Cam™ generator. The self-contained residential power plant will be capable of providing 100% of the power needs of a modern luxury residence and would run on natural gas, propane or diesel fuel. The 25kW Rand Cam™ power plant would run at 3600 rpm, be extremely quiet, only 18 inches in overall diameter and would weigh 110 lbs.

Designs have been completed for three different applications of this new engine concept. The Cold Turbine is the use of a positive displacement RAND CAM(TM) compressor and a positive displacement RAND CAM(TM) expander in a Brayton cycle (gas turbine) machine.

Rotary Power International has been granted a license agreement for the power generator applications.

Gasoline and Diesel Engine

Two prototype engines were built in 1993 and 1994 by the WVURC to run on gasoline. Testing on these prototypes suggested that the concept is fundamentally sound and that with a program of engine review, design, testing and development, a technically successful range of engines can be developed. The current prototype design for the diesel engine was designed by a consortium made up of Alliant Techsystems (formerly Hercules Aerospace Company) ("Alliant"), WVURC and us. Alliant was involved in the design and development including drawings for the RC/DC diesel engine. In addition Alliant performed extensive analysis on the diesel engine including bearings, cooling, leakage, rotor, vanes, housing, vane tip heating, geometry and combustion. This engine was designed as a general purpose power plant for military and commercial applications. A prototype of the diesel engine has been assembled and tested.

Motor Scooter Project

The motor scooter project was successfully tested by Paul LaMarche, our engineer in Detroit, Michigan. Additional testing is proposed to prove the concept to potential interested customers.

The RC\DC Scooter Engine was successfully test fired on the new ignition system which was designed by our engineering team. The system fired in all chambers on both sides. The positive aspect of this test is that the ignition system is capable of operating at the demanding rate of the sixteen combustions per revolution versus the eight combustions for two revolutions on the existing piston engine used today.

The RC\DC Scooter engine will be a light weight, smooth and quiet running motor and very inexpensive to maintain and manufacture. Also, the RC\DC Scooter Engine prototype required equipment has been fabricated and acquired. The RC\DC Scooter Engine will weigh approximately 15-20 pounds and generate 20 HP. We have received inquiries from manufacturers regarding the possibility of including the Motor Scooter Engine in lightweight and inexpensive vehicles. There is no assurance, however, that we will enter into an agreement with anyone to manufacture the Motor Scooter engine.

Compressor

We contracted Coltec, Inc., a Columbus, Indiana engineering firm, to fabricate the Rand Cam (TM) air conditioning compressor for buses. The testing is to be conducted by Trans/Air Manufacturing Corporation, one of the largest manufacturers of air conditioning units for buses, which has agreed to jointly develop and manufacture the working model compressor. The prototype compressor was delivered to Trans/Air in January 2001 and is presently awaiting testing in a bus.

A special 3.2 SCFM air compressor has been designed for a large fuel cell customer. The customer has reviewed the design and his comments including type of drive motor, inlet and outlet piping arrangements and mounting considerations were incorporated and final drawings were prepared. This compressor is of virtually all plastic construction.

On June 28, 2001 we announced that the air pump for the fuel cell had been assembled and testing had commenced. The air pump was designed for the 1 KW fuel cell and is to be further tested by a potential customer at its facilities. Reg Technologies, Inc. also has agreed to build a Rand Cam compressor for several applications in the air, hydrogen and natural gas compressor requirements for fuel cell applications.

On August 21, 2001 we announced that the prototype air compressor requested by a major fuel cell manufacturer has been fabricated and is currently undergoing additional testing at REGI U.S.’s facility in Detroit. At the completion of this effort the compressor will be delivered to a compressor manufacturer for

14


evaluation and testing as a first step towards this manufacturer becoming a licensee to manufacture compressors for our applications.

Air Pump

On September 21, 2000 we announced that Paul LaMarche, a director and Vice President of Engineering, completed a series of feasibility tests on the Rand Cam air pump for the Lumbar seat application in automobiles. The Rand Cam air pump was tested without lubrication and filled the lumbar chamber in less than four (4) seconds, which is less than required by the specifications, at only 6,600 rpm. To date, production costs and manufacturing techniques have not been completed.

Hydraulic Pump

A special 2.5 GPM pump has been designed and fabricated for use in a hydrostatic transmission for the lawn and garden market. The pump includes an integrated 12 Volt drive motor. This pump incorporates the same new technologies used in the air conditioning compressor including the winged rotor and multi-piece vanes. The pump is designed for very low cost and is of all plastic construction. Production pricing has been obtained and we are very competitive according to our customer. This specific application for which this pump was designed has been temporarily put on hold.

Hydrogen Separator

We purchased the rights to the H2O Hydrogen Separator Technology consisting of a hydrogen separator based, which is a unique system for extracting hydrogen from water. We own a 50% interest in the U.S. rights and Reg Technologies, Inc. owns 50% of the worldwide rights excluding the U.S. to the Hydrogen Separator Technology.

In consideration for a 50% interest for the rights to the Hydrogen Separator Technology Reg Technologies, Inc. (“Reg”) agrees that we shall apply for a patent in the U.S. for the Hydrogen Separator Technology at Reg’s expense; and Reg agrees to build a prototype of the Hydrogen Separator Technology as designed by GHM, Inc. We declined the option to purchase an additional 50% interest. To date, patent confirmation has not been received by Reg.

Ceramic Rand CamTM Engine

On December 6, 2001 we announced that a U.S. Navy contract (SBIR No1-144) has been awarded to Advanced Ceramics Research (prime contractor) and REGI U.S., Inc. to build and test a Naval 0.5 horsepower ceramic engine. The proposed engine is a four stroke Rand Cam™ engine utilizing continuous injection and combustion in a single combustion chamber. The engine will be of all ceramic construction to permit high temperature operation, without cooling, to effectively burn heavy oil. This new motor will be developed for powering the U.S. Navy’s new Smart War-fighter Array of Re-configurable Modules (SWARM) low cost unmanned aerial vehicle.

On April 4, 2002 we announced that we signed an agreement to grant a license to Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. (“ACR”) for the Rand Cam™ based motors for 10 H.P. or less for the SBIR No 1-144 Navy Contract for the remote piloted applications. We agreed that a 5 year contract will also be granted to ACR for the Rand Cam™ concept motors for the commercial and military rights for the applications developed under the Navy contract for 10 H.P or less.

We will receive a royalty fee of 5% of the purchase price for the commercial and Navy applications. We also receive 30% of the Navy phase I contract and 50% of the phase II contract which is typically $50,000 to $100,000 for Phase I and $500,000 to $750,000 for Phase II. Phase I has been completed by Advanced Ceramics. The Company is awaiting funding from Phase II to be determined before the end of December, 2002.

Progress Report from May 1, 2001 to April 30, 2002

On June 28, 2001 we reported that the air pump for the fuel cell has been assembled and testing has been completed. The air pump was designed for the 1KW fuel cell and is to be further tested by a potential customer at their facilities.

On August 21, 2001, we reported progress on the Rand Cam™ Air Conditioning Compressor. We previously reported the air conditioning compressor for heavy-duty bus applications was completed and delivered to the Trans Air Manufacturing Company for testing in January of this year. Unfortunately, the testing has not been started. Pat Badgley previously visited this company and was assured that Trans Air is still very interested in the compressor. Testing has been delayed due to reorganization of Trans Air. We expect testing to commenced as soon as possible as Trans Air is still interested in the Rand Cam Engine compressor.

On October 22, 2001 we announced that Robert D. Stoddart B.S. Chemical Engineering, was appointed as Corporate Marketing Director for the Rand Cam(TM) technology applications for REGI U.S., Inc. Robert Stoddart brings with him 30 years experience in the aerospace and aircraft industry, as Corporate Marketing Director and Federal Government Affairs Director. Mr. Stoddart has been involved as a contractor and/or consultant for the Department of Defense, Naval Sea Systems Command; Naval Air Systems Command and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

We also announced that Stodd International, Mr. Stoddart's company, was appointed as agent for REGI U.S., Inc. to raise up to $6 million (U.S.) on a non-exclusive basis. A 5% agents fee of the total funds received from contacts introduced by Stodd International will be paid for funds raised, license fees, royalty payments and contract fees. We believe that Mr. Stoddart’s extensive expertise in government relations and advanced technologies marketing will be a valuable asset to marketing the Rand Cam(TM) projects and raising substantial funds for REGI U.S., Inc.

Our Rand Cam(TM) technology was exhibited at the GSE Expo (Ground Support Equipment Expo http://www.gseexpo.com) in Las Vegas at the Rio Hotel and Convention Center on October 23-25, 2001. Our booth was well attended.

On December 6, 2001, we announced that a U.S. Navy contract (SBIR No1-144) has been awarded to Advanced Ceramics Research (prime contractor) and REGI U.S., Inc. to build and test a Naval 0.5 horsepower ceramic engine. The proposed engine is a four stroke Rand Cam(TM) engine utilizing continuous injection and combustion in a single combustion chamber. The engine will be of all ceramic construction to permit high temperature operation, without cooling, to effectively burn heavy oil. This new motor will be developed for powering the U.S. Navy's new Smart War-fighter Array of Re-configurable Modules (SWARM) low cost unmanned aerial vehicle.

On April 4, 2002 we announced that we signed an agreement to grant a license to Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. (“ACR”) for the Rand Cam™ based motors for 10 H.P. or less for the SBIR No 1-144 Navy Contract for the remote piloted applications.

A 5 year contract will also be granted to ACR for the Rand Cam™ concept motors for the commercial and military rights for the applications developed under the Navy contract for 10 H.P or less. We will receive a royalty fee of 5% of the purchase price for the commercial and Navy applications. REGI U.S., Inc. also receives 30% of the Navy phase I contract and 50% of the phase II contract which is typically $50,000 to $100,000 for Phase I and $500,000 to $750,000 for Phase II.

The Industry

We initially targeted market was the smaller engine application (under 20 horsepower) segment. This includes such applications as lawnmowers, lawn tractors, weed eaters, tillers, shredders, chainsaws, electrical generators, pumps, heatpumps and tampers. Our management believes that many of these small engine applications could benefit by the expected size, weight, reduced vibration, cost and power density advantages of the Rand Cam Rotary Engines.

Possible military applications include smaller electrical generator sites, water pumps and a small diesel engine 5-10 HP for drones or remote piloted vehicles. We plan to address the electrical power generation market through solicitation of military research and development funding.

The use of the basic engine technology in air conditioning compressors appears to hold significant potential for mass market applications.

Another application is the air pump being developed for a large fuel company which could hold the potential for significant volume sales if it proves to be a viable alternative to existing pumps currently used in fuel cell applications.

We are currently targeting the diesel engine market for military applications.

Description of the Markets in Which the Company Competes

We currently face and will continue to face competition in the future from established companies engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing engines and other products. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. Such competitors are already well established in the market and have substantially greater resources than us. Internal combustion engines are produced by automobile manufacturers, marine engine manufacturers, heavy equipment manufacturers and specialty aircraft and industrial engine manufacturers. We expect that our engine would be used mainly in industrial and marine applications.

Except for the Wankel rotary engine built by Mazda of Japan, no competitor, that we are aware of, presently produces in a commercial quantity any rotary engine similar to the engines we are developing. The Wankel rotary engine is similar only in that it is a rotary engine rather than a reciprocating piston engine. Without substantially greater financial resources than is currently available to us, however, it is very possible that it may not be able to adequately compete in the engine business. One competitor, Rotary Power International, is presently producing the first production SCORE rotary (Wankel type) engines. Our RC\DC Engine is more fuel efficient, smaller, quieter, costs less to produce and will have fewer exhaust emissions.

We believe that if and when our engine is completely developed, in order to be successful in meeting or overcoming competition which currently exists or may develop in the future, our engine will need to offer superior performance and/or cost advantages over existing engines used in various applications.

Seasonality

We believe that there is no seasonality which affects the sales of our products.

17


Availability of Raw Materials

Since we are not in production and there are no plans at this time for us to enter the actual engine manufacturing business, raw materials are not of present concern. At this time, however, there does not appear to be any foreseeable problem with obtaining any materials or components, whic h may be required in the manufacture of its potential products.

Marketing Strategy

We intend to pursue the development of the RC/DC Engine and the air pump, compressor and other products by entering into licensing and/or joint venture arrangements with other larger companies, which have the financial resources to maximize the potential of the technology. At the present time no such licensing or joint venture arrangements have been concluded and there is no assurance that any will be in the foreseeable future. We have no current plans to become actively involved in either manufacturing or marketing any engine or other product which it may ultimately develop to the point of becoming a commercial product.

Our current objective is to complete and test the various compressor, pump and diesel engine prototypes. Based on the successful testing, the prototypes will be used for presentation purposes to potential license and joint venture partners. We are currently making presentations to the U.S. military which could result in additional government funding if the diesel engine prototype meets with its approval.

We expect revenue from license agreements with the potential end users based on the success of the design of from the compressor, pump, Cold Turbine Engine and diesel engine prototypes. Based on of successful testing of the Rand Cam prototypes, we expect to have joint venture or license agreements finalized, which would result in royalties to us. However, there is no assurance that the tests will be successful or that we will ever receive any such royalties.

The following marketing activities are all currently underway:

AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR - An agreement with Trans Air Manufacturers has been completed to use the Rand Cam(TM) compressor in air conditioning units in bus applications. We have delivered a compressor prototype for testing. We are awaiting test results from Trans Air.

AIR PUMP – A prototype air pump for a Fuel Cell Application has been completed and will be delivered to the Fuel Cell manufacturer for testing soon.

DIESEL ENGINE – Efforts are underway to obtain funding for modifications of the existing Diesel engine to incorporate the latest winged rotor technology and incorporate extensive thermal barrier coatings. Also several new aircraft engine designs have been completed for aircraft applications ranging from 1 to over 400 horsepower for interested potential customers. We have signed a license agreement with Advanced Ceramics and Radian MILPARTS to further develop our Rand Cam Technology for diesel engine applications. We are currently designing a 42 H.P diesel engine for a remote piloted helicopter for potential military applications.

Patents and Licenses

Patents

We have patents on the Rand Cam Engine for Canada, Mexico and the United States to protect certain aspects of the Rand Cam engine. U.S. patent 5,429,084 was granted on July 4, 1995, to James McCann, Brian Cherry, Patrick Badgley and four other individuals for various improvements incorporated in the RC/DC Engine, This

18


patent has been assigned to us. The patent to the original Rand Cam engine, U.S. Patent 4,401,070, was issued on August 30, 1983 to James McCann and the marketing rights are held by Rand Energy.

The RC/DC Engine is composed basically of a disk shaped rotor with drive shaft, which turns, and the housing or stator, which remains stationary. The rotor has two or more vanes that are mounted perpendicular to the direction of rotation and slide back and forth through it. As the rotor turns, the ends of the vanes ride along the insides of the stator housing which have wave-like depressions, causing the vanes to slide back and forth. In the process of turning and sliding, combustion chambers are formed between the rotor, stator walls and vanes where the fuel/air mixture is injected, compressed, burned and exhausted.

Two additional patents have been issued for improvements to the engine including: U.S. Patents 5,509,793 “Rotary Device with Slidable Vane Supports) issued April 24, 1996 and 5,551,853 “Axial Vane Rotary Device and Sealing System Therefor) issued September 3, 1996. Additional patent applications are presently in process for the Winged Rotor, Multi-Piece Vanes and Cold Turbine.

Royalty Payments

The August 1992 Agreement calls for us to pay RAND semi-annually a royalty of 5% of any net profits to be derived by us from revenues received as a result of its license of the Original Engine. The August 1992 Agreement also calls for us to pay Brian Cherry a royalty of 1% semi-annually any net profits derived by us from revenue received as a result of our licensing the Original Engine.

Other provisions of the April 1993 Agreement call for is (a) to pay to RAND a continuing royalty of 5% of the net profits derived from the Technology by us and (b) to pay to Brian Cherry a continuing royalty of 1% of the net profits derived by us from the Technology.

Pursuant to the letter of understanding dated December 13, 1993, among us, RAND, Reg Tech and WVURC, WVURC will receive 5% of all net profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the patented technology relating to the Original Engine and the RC/DC Engine.

No royalties are to be paid to Alliant or Adiabatics, Inc.

Pursuant to our agreement with Weston, we agreed to pay to Weston 8.5% of net sales derived from the AVFS together with a minimum annual royalty of $24,000 per year beginning October 1, 1997, payable quarterly. This agreement was terminated February 4, 2002.

Competition and Alternative Technologies

We believe strong competition can be expected in the engine market with new patents being taken out on a continuous basis and that we may have a time advantage over some of the competitive products as far as niche markets which we may enter, however there is no way to accurately determine or predict whether this situation is or will continue to be true.

The conventional piston type internal combustion engine is the prime competitor of the Rand Cam Engine. Due to the substantial infrastructure built up to support the standard combustion engine, substantial barriers to entry exist into this market.

A number of the new engine designs over the last decade have offered advantages on the thermodynamics front (e.g. more efficient use of energy through better combustion, better heat transfer, etc.). In the case of the Rand Cam Engine, its strong point it believed to be in its mechanism, not in its thermodynamics. Whether or not the

19


engine's mechanism alone will provide the competitive edge necessary to result in a marketable and successful product is unknown at this time.

Since we do not have management experience in manufacturing engines, it hopes to be able to follow the same strategy as that of other companies such as Orbital and Wankel, where it would be licensing its technology and would therefore not be directly engaged in manufacturing.

An extensive manufacturing study has not been performed to date and it could turn out that the costs to manufacture are prohibitive for one or more reasons. However, the computer modelling done can be utilized to generate manufacturing drawings which could be used to obtain preliminary costing estimates.

The development of our business and its ability to maintain its competitive and technical position has depended and will depend, in part, upon its ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering, managerial and manufacturing personnel.

Significant competition exists from engine manufacturers and engineering firms specializing in the development of internal combustion engines technology for the automotive, marine, motorcycle and small engine industry. Such competition also exists in the pump and compressor markets which may utilize the Rand Cam technology in their products. Many of these companies have substantially greater resources for research, development and manufacturing than us. It is possible that our competitors may succeed in developing technologies and products that are more effective or commercially acceptable. We believe, based on its testing of the Rand Cam engine that the engine is a superior overall engine package to the reciprocating piston engine. This assessment is made on the basis of the Rand Cam engine's potential for reduced engine weight and packaging volume, improved performance, and possibly lower manufacturing costs.

Technology development is taking place on many fronts and competitors may have, unknown to us, a product or products under development which may be technologically superior to ours which may be more acceptable to the market. Competition with engines employing Rand Cam technology may also include other lean burn engines, electric motors, gas turbine engines, solar power and hybrid vehicles, and may include concepts not yet known to us.

Material effects of Government

Our engine products including the spark ignited engine, Diesel engine and Cold Turbine engine will be subject to various exhaust emissions standards depending upon the application and the country in which it is produced and/or sold. As each product becomes ready for sale, it will be necessary to have the engine certified according to the standards in effort at that time.

C.         ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

For a list of our significant subsidiaries, see “Item 10 – Additional Information – Subsidiary Information”.

D.         PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

We own no properties. We currently utilize office space leased by Reg Technologies in a commercial business park building located in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, a suburb of Vancouver. The present facilities are believed to be adequate for meeting our needs for the immediate future. However we expect that we will likely acquire separate space when the level of business activity requires us to do so. We do not anticipate that we will have any difficulty in obtaining such additional space at favorable rates. Mr. Badgley, a director and Vice President, works out of an office in his home in Columbus, Indiana. From this office, Mr. Badgley oversees and controls development and testing of the engine and other prototypes. Mr. Badgley has also used the facilities of Coltec Industries which was under contract to design and build the compressor prototype.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. The following discussion is derived from the U.S. GAAP reconciliation.

A.         OPERATING RESULTS

We are a development stage company engaged in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Engine (the "RC/DC Engine").

As a development stage company, we devote most of our activities to establishing our business. Planned principal activities have not yet produced significant revenues and we have a working capital deficit. We have undergone mounting losses to date totaling $11,364,635 and further losses are expected until we complete a licensing agreement with a manufacturer and reseller. Our working capital deficit is $1,066,117. Our major assets are our tangible and intangible assets, being patents and intellectual property rights, totaling $227,438 which represents 90% of total assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to emerge from the development stage with respect to our planned principal business activity is dependent upon our successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from affiliates and controlling shareholders, and develop a market for our products.

Fiscal 2002 compared to 2001

Results of operations was net income of $166,000 ($0.01 per share) for 2002 as compared to a net loss of $1,632,000 ($0.10 per share) for 2001.

No revenues from the sale or licensing of any technology were realized in 2002 or 2001. We entered into license agreements with Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. and Rotary Power Generation Incorporated.

In 2002, we recognized a gain of $423,000 as a result of its subsidiary issuing shares outside the consolidated group for cash proceeds of $423,000 which resulted in a deemed disposition of 5% of our ownership in the subsidiary. In 2001 there was a gain of $2,000 on proceeds of $3,000. In 2001 we realized a gain of $81,000 from the sale of the remaining shares of LinuxWizardry Systems Inc. and received cash proceeds of $89,000. In 2002 a loss of $30,000 was recognized due to the write-down of the AVFS rights and development costs as compared to $678,000 in 2001. Administrative expenses decreased by $308,000 to $349,000 in 2002 from $652,000 in 2002. This increase is a result of: investor relations activities being decreased by $280,000 to $122,000 in 2002 as compared to $402,000 in 2001; professional fees decreased by $14,000 to $55,000 in 2002 as compared to $69,000 in 2001; regulatory fees decreased by $11,000 to $19,000 in 2002 as compared to $30,000 in 2001 as result of redeployment of staff to other companies.

Research and development expenses decreased by $528,000 to a $30,000 recovery compared to $498,000 spent in 2001. The largest components of research and development are prototype development costs of $15,000 compared to $121,000 spent in 2001 and technical consulting of $97,000 compared to $219,000. Technical consulting continued, with a reduction in pay, to consist of Patrick Badgley and Paul LaMarche. Accounts payable of $259,000 were written off during 2002. The majority of prototype developments are now being borne by the licensees and manufacturers.

The Company did not issue any common shares during the year.

B.         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In the past, we have derived most of our development and operating capital primarily from the issuance of our capital stock and our subsidiary REGI U.S., Inc. We have also caused our 51% owned subsidiary, Rand Energy Group Inc. to sell shares it owned in REGI U.S., Inc.

We have been successful in the past in acquiring capital through the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, and through advances from related parties. Although it intends to continue utilizing these sources, there has been no assurance in the past that these sources and methods would continue to be available in the future.

In the event that no other sources of capital were available to us in the future, on a reasonable financial basis, it would face the same obstacles as many small, undercapitalized companies do, and, in the worst case, we could be forced to reorganize or liquidate, either of which consequence would likely have an adverse financial effect upon our shareholders.

Fiscal 2002 compared to 2001

During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2002, we derived most of our development and operating capital primarily from the $216,719 in profits ($312,380 in proceeds) generated as a result of gains on the issuance of the subsidiary’s own shares (compared to nil received in fiscal 2001). Proceeds from related companies rose to $854,731 in 2002 from $489,311 the previous year, an increase of $365,423.

During the year, we raised a further $75,000, pursuant to a private placement of 500,000 units at $0.15 per unit. These units were issued in October, 2002.Each unit consisted of one share and one warrant to acquire one additional share at $0.20 per share if exercised in year one after receipt of funds. These funds raised do not provide enough working capital to fund ongoing operations for the next twelve months. We may also raise additional funds through the exercise of warrants and stock options, if exercised. Warrants with respect to 500,000shares at $0.20 per share may be exercised to net $100,000 and options with respect to 1,300,000 shares at prices between $0.40 and $0.52 per share may be exercised to net $574,000, if exercised.

Our investment in research and development activities totaled $101,219 during the 2002 fiscal year, up 26% from the $650,575 spent during the 2001 fiscal year.

C.         RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES, ETC.

The basic research and development work on the RC/DC Engine and other products is being coordinated and funded by us and REGI U.S., Inc. and funded as to 50% each.

We plan to contract with outside individuals, institutions and companies to perform most of the additional research and development work which we may require to benefit from our rights to the RC/DC Engine and other products. Development work on the air conditioning compressors completed by Coltec Industries an engineering firm in Columbus, Indiana under contract with us has been and is currently awaiting testing by Trans Air Manufacturing our potential customer for the Rand Cam Compressor for air conditioning units in buses.

During the last two fiscal years, we spent $165,145 on research and development.

C.         BOARD PRACTICES

Under section 187 of the Company Act, R.S.B.C. 1996, c. 62, the directors of a reporting company, from among their number, must elect at their first meeting following each annual general meeting a committee, to be known as the audit committee, composed of not fewer than 3 directors, of whom a majority must not be officers or employees of the company or an affiliate of the company, to hold office until the next annual general meeting. Our Board of Directors established an Audit Committee which members consist of John Robertson, Patrick Badgley, and Susanne Robertson. It is intended that following the completion of the annual general meeting of shareholders scheduled to be held on January 6, 2003, that, providing the directors nominated are elected by the shareholders, the directors will appoint John Robertson, Patrick Badgley, and Susanne Robertson as members of the Audit Committee.

Our directors are elected by the shareholders to hold office for a term of one year or until re-elected at the next annual general meeting.

ITEM 10. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Not applicable.

B.         Memorandum and Articles of Association

Our Memorandum and Articles are incorporated by reference to the information in our registration statement on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in Washington, D.C. on June 15, 1994, to which our Articles of Incorporation and Memorandum were filed as exhibits.

C.         Material Contracts

We did not enter into any material contracts which were not made in the ordinary course of business.

D.         Exchange Controls.

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export of capital affecting the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to nonresident holders of the Registrant's shares. Any such remittances, however, are subject to withholding tax. See Item 7, "Taxation".

There are no limitations under the laws of Canada, the Province of British Columbia or in the charter or any other constituent documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote our shares. However, under the provisions of the Investment Canada Act, when control of a Canadian business is acquired by a non- Canadian, the transaction may be reviewable in certain circumstances by Investment Canada, an agency of the federal government of Canada. Reviewable transactions are those in which a non-Canadian acquires the assets of a Canadian business or the voting shares of a Canadian corporation the value of which assets or shares exceeds $5 million (Canadian). Also, certain transactions are specifically exempted from review.

29


E.         Taxation.

Withholding

Generally, cash dividends paid by Canadian corporations to nonresident shareholders are subject to a withholding tax of 25 percent. However, pursuant to Article X[2] of the Canada-United States tax treaty, dividends paid to a resident if a company of the United States are only subject to a 15 percent withholding tax. Further, if the United states resident owns 10 percent or more of the voting shares of the Canadian company paying the dividends, the withholding tax is reduced to 10 percent. In addition to dividend withholding, interest paid to United States residents is subject to a 15 percent withholding tax pursuant to Article XI[2] of the Canada-United States tax treaty.

Capital Gains

A nonresident purchaser who holds our shares as capital property will not be subject to tax on capital gains realized on the disposition of such shares unless such shares are "taxable Canadian property" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and no relief is afforded under any applicable tax treaty. Our shares would be taxable Canadian property of a nonresident purchaser if the nonresident purchaser used the shares in carrying on a business in Canada or if at any time during the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition not less than 25 percent of the issued shares of any class of the Company belonged to the particular purchaser, persons with whom the purchaser did not deal at arm's length or any combination thereof.

Holders of our Common Shares should seek independent advice from their own professional tax advisors with respect to the Canadian Income Tax consequences arising from the holding of our Common Shares.

Auditors’ Report

To the Shareholders of
Reg Technologies Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Reg Technologies Inc. as at April 30, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated statements of loss and deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 generally accepted auditing standards used in Canada. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of the Company as at April 30, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and the changes in its cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in Canada. As required by The British Columbia Company Act we report that, in our opinion, these principles have been applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

Comments by Auditors for
U.S. Readers on Canada - U.S. Reporting Conflict

In the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when the financial statements are affected by significant uncertainties and contingencies such as those referred to in Note 2 to these financial statements. Our report to the shareholders dated September 13, 2002 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such uncertainties in the auditors’ report when the uncertainties are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

Consolidated Financial Statements
     
   
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 51% owned subsidiary, Rand Energy Group Inc., which owns a 45% interest in REGI US, Inc., a U.S. public company listed on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States. REGI US, Inc. continues to be considered a controlled subsidiary for consolidation purposes by way of control through other affiliated companies.

.
Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
     
   
The Company is in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam™/Direct Charge Engine and other RandCam™ applications, such as compressors and pumps (the “RC/DC Engine”). The world-wide marketing and intellectual rights, other than the U.S., are held by Rand Energy Group Inc. which controls REGI US, Inc. REGI US, Inc. owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights. Rand Energy Group Inc. and REGI US, Inc. have a project cost sharing agreement whereby the companies each fund 50% of the further development of The RC/DC Engine and its related industrial applications.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the crealization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenues from the sale or licensing of The RC/DC Engine or related applications or achieved operational profitability since inception. The Company’s activities are in the development stage and additiona costs for the further advancement and application diversification of The RC/DC Engine and related applications must be incurred. There is risk as to the Company’s ability to generate revenues and to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain financing and/or the attainment of revenues and profitable operations.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
The Company also owns a 51% interest in Rand Energy Group, which owns 5,053,000 shares of REGI U.S. Inc., a U.S. company trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, which shares had a value of approximately US$500,000 as of September 13, 2002. The Company can sell up to 113,000 shares of REGI US, Inc., being 1% of the issued shares, during any 90 day period.

Significant Accounting Policies
     
    [a] Goodwill on consolidation
       
     
Goodwill represents the excess of the original purchase consideration paid for Rand Energy Group Inc. over fair market value of net identifiable assets acquired and contingent consideration paid, and is amortized on a straight-line basis over twenty years. Goodwill is evaluated in each reporting period to determine if there were events or circumstances which would indicate a possible inability to recover the carrying amount.
     
     
     
       
    [b] Development costs
     
Costs incurred by the Company in development of The RC/DC Engine and related applications are capitalized as incurred. Costs will be amortized over the estimated useful life of specific licensed productsor rights following commencement of commercial activity, or written-off should The RC/DC Engine and/or AVFS be determined not to be commercially viable. The AVFS rights and development costs were written-off during the year.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
       
    [c] Property, plant and equipment
       
     
Costs to register and protect patents are capitalized. Coststo acquire intellectual property such astechnological rights and design drawings are capitalized. Costs of patents and intellectual property arebeing amortized to development costs on a straight-line basis over 20 years or written-off should TheRC/DC Engine and/or AVFS be determined by management not to be commercially viable.
     
     
     
     
      Computer equipment is amortized over 3 years on a straight-line basis.
       
    [d] Accounting basis
       
     
These financial statements are prepared using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. See Note 12 regarding adjustments from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
     
     
     
    [e] Foreign currency translation
       
      [i] Translation of foreign currency transactions and balances
         
        Revenue, expenses and non-monetary balance sheet items in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates.

      [ii] Translation of foreign subsidiary balances
         
       
Assets and liabilities of REGI US, Inc. are translated into Canadian dollars at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. The foreign subsidiary’s operating results are translated into Canadian dollars using the average exchange rate for the year with any translation gain or loss deferred and included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
         
       
The accumulated foreign exchange gain, totalling $554,093 to April 30, 2002, is a result of translating assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange on April 30, 2002 as compared to the exchange rate accumulated from the inception of REGI US, Inc
     
.
    [f] Use of estimates
       
     
The preparation of financial statements in conformity withCanadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, particularly the recoverability of capital assets and goodwill, and recording of 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 the estimates.

11 . Differences Between Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Canada and Those in the United States
       
   
The material differences between Canadian and U.S. accounting principles is the treatment of the following items:
       
    [a] Development costs
       
     
Development costs, under Canadian accounting principles, may be deferred, until the processes reach commercial production, at which time they are amortized on a systematic basis by reference to the sale or use of the processes, or until the project is sold or abandoned, at which time the costs are written-off. Under U.S.accountingprinciples, development costs must beexpensed as incurred requiring that development costs of $8,676,237 be expensed.
     
     
     
     
     
    [b] Capital assets
       
     
Intellectual property and goodwill are treated as capital assets under Canadian accounting principles. Under U.S. accounting principles, these relate to and thus, are treated as, research and development, which must be expensed as incurred, requiring the net book value of capital assets totalling $546,275 be expensed.
     
     
     
    [c] Non-controlling interest
       
     
The amounts written-off to operations in (a) and (b) above would be reduced by $2,702,347 which represents non-controlling interest therein.
