Item 1.  Business

General

In the Caribbean, Devcon International Corp. (the "Company") produces and
distributes ready-mix concrete, crushed stone, concrete block, and asphalt and
distributes bulk and bagged cement. We also perform site preparation work as a
land development contractor. We have established a significant market share in
most locations where we have facilities. In prior years we referred to our
business as the concrete and related products and contracting divisions
segments. We will from hereafter refer to them as the materials and construction
divisions respectively.

During the first quarter of 2000 we sold our operations in Tortola and Dominica,
our concrete operations in St. Thomas and all our bulk cement terminals. Due to
these sales, our materials revenue in 2000 has diminished compared to 1999. The
operations in Tortola and Dominica had revenue of $9.5 million in 1999 and
$946,000 in 2000. The concrete operations in St. Thomas had revenue of $6.3
million in 1999 and no revenue in 2000. However, our quarry in St. Thomas
continues to supply sand and stone to the St. Thomas concrete operation. The
revenue from this supply was $2.1 million in 2000, therefore the net decrease in
revenue by selling the concrete operation in St. Thomas was approximately $4.2
million. The cement terminals we sold had sales of cement to third parties of
approximately $7.3 million in 1999. However, after the sale we entered into an
agreement with the buyer to distribute cement from the terminals we sold and,
pursuant to this arrangement, the sales of cement were $10.2 million to third
parties in 2000. The distribution agreement has been terminated as of March 1,
2001 and we have entered into a renewed terminal management contract with the
owners of the cement terminals. The loss of distribution offset by the renewed
terminal management contract will have a negative effect on our sales volume of
approximately $7.3 million in 2001 and on gross margins before allocation of
overhead cost of approximately $500,000.

We are a large producer and distributor of ready-mix concrete and quarry
products in these Caribbean islands:

         Puerto Rico               Commonwealth of Puerto Rico
         St. Thomas                United States Virgin Islands
         St. Croix                 United States Virgin Islands
         St. Maarten               Netherlands Antilles
         St. Martin                French West Indies
         Antigua                   West Indies

Our construction division performs earthmoving, excavating, and filling
operations, builds golf courses, roads, and utility infrastructures, dredges
waterways and constructs deep-water piers and marinas in the Caribbean. We have
historically provided these land development services to both private
enterprises and governments in the Caribbean. We believe that our relationships
with customers in the Caribbean give us a competitive advantage. Our project
managers have substantial experience in land development construction, and our
equipment is well suited for the Caribbean markets. We have equipment and
personnel in the Caribbean that, we believe, often allow us to start work more
quickly and less expensively than other contractors. While we can bid
competitively and cost-effectively for these


                                       2
<PAGE>

land development contracts, our ability to mobilize quickly can sometimes cause
us to incur higher expense.

The following table sets forth financial highlights of our materials,
construction and other business. See further information in Note 11 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our executive offices are located at 1350 East Newport Center Drive, Suite 201,
Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442 and our telephone number is (954)429-1500. In
this document, the terms "Company" and "Devcon" refer to Devcon International
Corp. and its subsidiaries.

Business Development

From time to time, we investigate opportunities to expand our operations to
areas of the Caribbean where we presently have no business.

During the first quarter of 2000 we sold our operations in Tortola and Dominica,
our concrete operations in St. Thomas and all our bulk cement terminals. Due to
hurricane damages we have decided to close our Saba operations. See additional
information under Item 1 - Business-General.

Risks of Foreign Operations

Portions of our operation in 2000 were conducted in Caribbean foreign countries,
primarily Antigua and Barbuda, St. Maarten and St. Martin. In 2000, 49.7 percent
of our revenue was derived from foreign operations. Overseas contract work
performed by the parent U.S. corporation is not considered foreign-source
revenue for this calculation. For a summary of our revenue and earnings from
foreign operations, see Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The risks of doing business in foreign areas include potential adverse changes
in U.S. diplomatic relations with foreign countries, changes in the relative
purchasing power of the U.S. dollar, hostility from local populations, adverse
effects of exchange controls, restrictions on the withdrawal of foreign
investment and earnings, government policies against businesses owned by
non-nationals, expropriations of property, the instability of foreign
governments, and any insurrection that could result in uninsured losses. We are
not subject to these risks in Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands since these
territories use the U.S. dollar as currency. The Company is also subject to U.S.
federal income tax


                                       3
<PAGE>

upon the distribution of certain offshore earnings. See Note 8 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. Although we have not encountered significant
difficulties in our foreign operations, there can be no assurance that we will
never encounter difficulties.

Materials Division

General In 2000 we manufactured and distributed ready-mix concrete, block and
crushed aggregate. We also distributed bulk and bagged cement. The different
activities on the islands are shown below:

                                                      Concrete   Bulk and

         Dominica                 S                               S

The "S" in the above table corresponds to operations sold in the first quarter
of 2000 and "C" corresponds to closed operations during 2000.

Our materials business employed assets in 2000 such as:

     o   Quarries                       o    Concrete Batch Plants
     o   Rock Crushing Plants           o    Fleet of Concrete Mixer Trucks
     o   Bulk Cement Terminals          o    Concrete Block Plants
     o   Cement Bagging Facilities      o    Asphalt Plants

See additional information under Item 1 - Business-General.

Ready-Mix Concrete and Concrete Block Our concrete batch plants mix cement,
sand, crushed stone, water and chemical additives to produce ready-mix concrete
for use in local construction. Our fleet of concrete mixer trucks deliver the
concrete to the customer's job site. At our concrete block plants, a
low-moisture concrete mixture is machine-formed, then dried and stored for later
sale. Usually, our ready-mix concrete operations and concrete block plants are
the area's largest or only facility.

Quarry Operations and Crushed Stone We own or lease quarry sites at which we
blast rock from exposed mineral formations. This rock is crushed to sizes
ranging from 3 1/2-inch stones down to manufactured sand. The resulting
aggregate is then sorted, cleaned and stored. The aggregate is sold to customers
and used in our operations to make concrete products. Our quarries are the
largest on five Caribbean islands. It is often less expensive to manufacture
crushed rock at our quarries than to import aggregate from off-island sources.

                                       4
<PAGE>

Bulk and Bagged Cement In prior years, we owned and operated several bulk cement
terminals and leased a 6,000 metric ton cement ship. The cement for the
Company's terminals was purchased from a number of manufacturers located
throughout the Caribbean basin and delivered to the terminals via the bulk
cement ship. In the beginning of 2000, all of the Company's cement terminals
were sold, and the charter on the bulk cement ship was terminated. The effect of
this transaction was that we now enter the supply chain for cement at a later
stage, and purchase cement directly from the terminals we sold. The Company
purchases cement from these terminals for use in its concrete batch plants, and
for resale of bulk and bagged cement under an exclusive distribution agreement
with the owner of the terminals. The distribution agreement was cancelled as of
March 1, 2001.

Supplies We presently obtain all of the crushed rock and a majority of the sand
necessary for our production of ready-mix concrete from our own quarries. We
believe our ability to produce our own sand and stone gives us a competitive
advantage because of the substantial investment required to produce aggregates,
the difficulty in obtaining the necessary environmental permits to establish
quarries and the moratorium on mining beach sand imposed by most Caribbean
countries. We purchase cement from cement terminals located on the islands where
our operations are established and bulk cement is readily available from a
number of manufacturers located throughout the Caribbean basin.

Customers Our primary customers are building contractors, governments, asphalt
pavers and individual homeowners. Customers generally pick up quarry products,
concrete block and bagged cement at our facilities, and we generally deliver
ready-mix concrete and bulk cement to the customers' job sites.

Competition We have some competitors in the materials business in the locations
where we conduct business. We encounter competition from the producers of
asphalt, which is an alternative material to concrete for road construction. We
believe our materials market share, resources, facilities, local presence and
cost structure give us a competitive advantage in the eastern Caribbean markets
where we operate.

Construction Division

General We have completed land development construction projects, including
interstate highways, airport sites and runways, deep-water piers and marinas,
hydraulic dredging, golf courses, and industrial, residential and commercial
site development. We pursue the most profitable land development contracts
available in the Caribbean, rather than attempting to maintain a high volume.

The revenue related to the work performed by our construction division is
generated on a contract-by-contract basis. The majority of our contracts are
completed in less than one year, although we obtain multi-year contracts from
time to time. These contracts are bid or negotiated at a fixed price except for
changes in the scope of the work requested by the owner during the term of the
contract. The majority of our work is performed by our own labor and equipment
and is not subcontracted. We also enter into unit-price contracts where our fee
is based upon the quantity of work performed. This is often measured in yards,
meters or tons, rather than time.

                                       5
<PAGE>

Operations We obtain leads for new projects from customers and engineering firms
with whom we have established relationships. First, we decide whether to submit
a bid or negotiate to undertake a particular project. We prepare and submit
timely proposals detailing what we believe will best meet the customer's
objectives. We have also provided long-term or short-term financing to obtain
more profitable construction contracts, and any financing by us in the future is
contingent upon our financial position and operating results. Project proposals
and bids are reviewed by our Vice President of Construction Operations and/or
our President. After a customer accepts our proposal, a formal contract is
negotiated. We are normally the prime contractor. We assign a project manager
and one of our seven field superintendents to maintain close contact with the
customer and its engineers, to supervise personnel and the relocation, purchase,
lease and maintenance of equipment, and to schedule and monitor our operations.

Backlog Our backlog of unfulfilled portions of construction contracts at
December 31, 2000 was $13.0 million involving 7 projects. One Bahamian project's
backlog amounts to $12.3 million at the end of 2000. A subsidiary and two of our
directors are minority partners, and our President is Chairman of the entity
developing this project. This partnership does not yet have the necessary
financing to complete the development of the project and there is uncertainty as
to whether it will obtain necessary financing. Therefore, the amount of the
backlog could substantially diminish and the timing of completion could vary.
The backlog of $13.0 million at the end of 2000 compares to $18.7 million
involving 6 projects at December 31, 1999. Since December 31, 2000 we have
entered into new construction and dredging contracts in the Caribbean amounting
to $8.1 million. We expect most of the current backlog to be completed during
2001, except for the project in the Bahamas.

Bonding We must obtain a performance bond to bid on government construction
contracts and some private contracts. We have, in the past, been able to bond
all contracts that so required.

Competition Land development construction is extremely competitive. Primary
competitive factors include price, prior experience and relationships, the
equipment available to complete the job, innovation, the available engineering
staff to assist an owner in minimizing costs, how quickly a company can complete
a contract, and the ability to obtain bonding which guarantees contract
completion. We believe that we compete effectively and have a favorable
competitive position in our Caribbean markets.

Other Operations

Marina Two of our subsidiaries owned a Virgin Islands general partnership formed
in 1988 to construct and operate a marina on a 4.92 acre parcel of land leased
from the U.S. Virgin Islands government. The marina was sold for $3.3 million on
February 3, 1998 and we recognized a loss of $108,000 in 1997.

Tax Exemptions and Benefits

Most of our offshore earnings are taxed at rates lower than U.S. statutory
federal income tax rates due to tax exemptions and lower prevailing tax rates
offshore. The U.S. Virgin Islands Industrial Development Commission granted us
tax exemptions on most of our U.S. Virgin Islands earnings through 2003.

                                       6
<PAGE>

U.S. tax laws provide that our offshore earnings are not taxable for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, and most post-April 1988 materials division
earnings in the U.S. Virgin Islands can be distributed to us free of U.S. income
tax. Any distribution to our United States operations of: (1) earnings from our
U.S. Virgin Islands operations accumulated prior to April 1, 1988; or (2)
earnings from our Antigua, St. Martin and St. Maarten operations, would subject
us to U.S. federal income tax on the amounts distributed, less applicable taxes
paid in those jurisdictions. At December 31, 2000, $37.6 million of accumulated
earnings had not been distributed to our U.S. operations. We have not provided
for U. S. federal income tax on the undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries because we intend to permanently reinvest those earnings offshore,
unless the earnings can be repatriated in a tax-free manner.

Our tax exemption and our ability to receive most of the current earnings from
our U.S. Virgin Islands operations without subjecting us to U.S. income taxes
reduce our income tax expense. For further information on our tax exemptions and
income taxes, see Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Equipment

Both of our businesses require us to lease or purchase and maintain equipment.
As of December 31, 2000, our equipment included cranes, bulldozers, road
graders, rollers, backhoes, earthmovers, a hydraulic dredge, barges, rock
crushers, bulk cement handling equipment and concrete batch and block plants,
concrete mixer trucks, asphalt processing and paving equipment and other items.
Some of this equipment is encumbered by chattel mortgages. See Notes 7 and 10 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Miscellaneous Investments and Joint Ventures

We have invested or participated in several joint ventures in connection with
our construction and materials division.

During 1998, 1999 and 2000 we invested a total of $184,000 for a 1.2 percent
interest in a real estate joint venture in the Bahamas. The upscale resort
project awaits final financing to finish its development, however, there is
uncertainty whether it will obtain this financing. Two of our directors have an
interest in the joint venture. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

During the last three years we invested a total of $177,000 for a 33.3 percent
interest in a real estate company in Puerto Rico that owns the land where the
Aguadilla aggregate processing plant operates. During 2000 we recognized a loss
of $23,000 using the equity method of accounting.

Item 3.       Legal Proceedings

We are sometimes involved in routine litigation arising in the ordinary course
of our business, primarily construction.

In the late 1980s, Bouwbedrijf Boven Winden, N.V., ("BBW") currently a Devcon
subsidiary in the Netherlands Antilles, supplied concrete to a large apartment
complex on the French side of St. Maarten. In the early 1990s the buildings
began to develop exterior cracking and "popouts." In November 1993, BBW was
named one of several defendants including the building's insurer, in a suit
filed by Syndicat des Coproprietaires la Residence Le Flamboyant (condominium
owners association of Le Flamboyant), in the French court "Tribunal de Grande
Instance de Paris", case No. 510082/93. A French court assigned an expert to
examine the cause of the cracking and popouts and to determine if the
cracking/popouts are caused by a phenomenon known as alkali reaction (ARS). The
expert found, in his report dated December 3, 1998, BBW was responsible for the
ARS. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages, including demolition and
replacement of the 272 apartments. Based on the advice of legal counsel, a
judgment assessed in a French court would not be enforceable against a
Netherlands Antilles company. Thus, the plaintiff would have to file the same
claim in an Antillean court. It is too early to predict the final outcome of
this matter. During 2000 no actions have been taken in or by the court.
Management believes our defenses to be meritorious and does not believe that the
outcome will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

We are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations.
We believe that the Company is in compliance with all such laws and regulations.
Compliance with environmental protection laws has not had a material adverse
impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows in the past and is not expected to have a material adverse impact in the
foreseeable future.

Item 4.       Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote of our security holders during the fourth

of Common Stock plus more than 800 beneficial owners holding our Common Stock in
their brokers' name. The closing sales price for the Common Stock on March 16,
2001, was $6.25. We paid no dividends in 2000 or 1999. The payment of cash
dividends will depend upon the earnings, consolidated financial position and
cash requirements of the Company, its compliance with loan agreements and other
relevant factors. We do not presently intend to pay dividends. No unregistered
securities were sold or issued in 2000, 1999 or 1998.

Dollar amounts of $1.0 million or more are rounded to the nearest one tenth of a
million; all other dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand and
all percentages are stated to the nearest one tenth of one percent.

This Form 10-K contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), which represent the Company's expectations and beliefs. These statements
involve risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control, and actual results
may differ materially depending on many factors, including the financial
condition of our customers, changes in domestic and foreign economic and
political conditions, demand for our services, and changes in our competitive
environment.

These and other factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ
materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Any
forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date it is made. We undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date it is made. It is not possible for management to
predict unanticipated factors or the effect they might have on our business.

Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2000 with Year Ended December 31, 1999

Revenue

Our revenue was $65.2 million in 2000 and $68.0 million in 1999. This 4.1
percent decrease reflects a decrease in materials revenue, partially offset by
an increase in construction revenue.

Our materials revenue decreased 7.9 percent to $51.0 million in 2000 from $55.3
million in 1999. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of the concrete
operations on St. Thomas, Tortola and Dominica. Excluding the sale


                                       13
<PAGE>

of these operations, materials revenue increased by 20.8%, primarily due to
increased demand for quarry products in St. Martin and Puerto Rico and increased
sale of cement in St. Croix. At this time, we cannot predict materials revenue
levels in 2001. However, the total volume may be decreased due to the
termination of our distribution agreement for the sale of cement.

Revenue from our construction division increased 12.3 percent to $14.3 million
in 2000 from $12.7 million in 1999. This increase resulted primarily from
increased activity with our dredge. Our backlog of unfilled portions of land
development contracts at December 31, 2000 was $13.0 million involving 7
projects, as compared to $18.7 million involving 6 projects at December 31,
1999. The backlog of the contract in the Bahamas at December 31, 2000 was $12.3
million. We expect most of this contract not to be completed during 2001. There
is uncertainty whether or not the project will receive its final financing.
Therefore, the amount of the backlog could substantially diminish and timing of
completion could vary. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
and Item 7 "Liquidity and Capital Resources". Since December 31, 2000 we have
entered into new construction and dredging contracts in the Caribbean amounting
to $8.1 million. We expect to complete the other remaining contracts during
2001.

Cost of Materials

Cost of materials decreased slightly to 83.6 percent of materials revenue in
2000 from 83.8 percent in 1999. The cost decrease was due to improved sales
volumes and, therefore, better margins on St. Martin and Puerto Rico, offset to
a lesser extent by higher production costs in Antigua and lower margin on our
cement sales.

Cost of Construction

Cost of construction decreased to 80.2 percent of construction revenue in 2000
from 86.5 percent in 1999. Decreased costs as a percent of revenue were due to
higher profitability on some 2000 contracts, especially dredging contracts, and
the completion of contracts with very low or negative margins in 1999. Our gross
margins are also affected by the profitability of each contract and the stage of
completion.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expense") decreased by 13.1
percent to $11.3 million in 2000 from $13.0 million in 1999. This decrease is
primarily due to the sale of the operations in St. Thomas and Tortola and to
accruals established in 1999 in connection with collective bargaining
agreements. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 17.3 percent in
2000 from 19.1 percent in 1999.

In 1999 we reduced our provision for litigation by $1.2 million due to the
settlement of two major lawsuits.

Due to lower profitability, lower volumes and hurricane damages, management upon
its review in 2000 and 1999 of long-lived assets, determined that impairment had
occurred to some of our assets. An impairment expense was recognized of $702,000
in 2000 compared to $805,000 in 1999. In 2000, goodwill recorded in connection
with our purchase of our subsidiary in St. Martin was written down by $378,000
due to low profitability. In addition,


                                       14
<PAGE>

the remaining assets in Saba were determined to be impaired due to the closure
of its operations, and certain obsolete equipment was also determined to be
impaired. In 1999, a significant portion of our quarry assets in Saba were
written down and idle assets on St. Kitts and St. Croix were also determined to
be impaired.

Divisional Operating Loss

The operating loss was $1.2 million in 2000 compared to an operating loss of
$2.2 million in 1999. Our materials division had an operating loss of $1.6
million in 2000, representing an improvement of $591,000 compared to an
operating loss of $2.2 million in 1999. This reduction in the loss is primarily
due to improved profitability in St. Martin and Puerto Rico and accruals
recorded in 1999 in connection with collective bargaining agreements, offset to
a lesser extent by higher cement cost and the effect that the sale of our
operations in St. Thomas, Tortola and Dominica had on our operating income in
2000. Our construction division had operating income of $1.3 million in 2000
compared to an operating loss of $301,000 in 1999, an improvement of $1.6
million. This increase is primarily attributable to improved margins and a
$200,000 write down of a note in 1999.

Other Income

We recognized a gain on the sale of our cement terminals and the concrete
business in St. Thomas and the Tortola operation, in the aggregate amount of
$18.3 million. We had gains on sale of other property and equipment of $154,000
in 2000 compared to $14,000 in 1999. Our interest expense decreased to $913,000
in 2000 from $2.4 million in 1999 due to a substantial reduction of outstanding
debt, utilizing the proceeds of our sales of operations as mentioned above. Our
interest income increased to $2.5 million in 2000 compared to $630,000 in 1999.
Our interest income increased due to interest recognized on notes receivable due
from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, and to a lesser extent to higher
levels of cash and cash equivalents. Previously we had estimated we would record
$2.1 million for year 2000 in interest from these Antigua notes, however, due to
the fact that the payments received were less than anticipated, the interest
recorded was $1.5 million. The decrease in payments was due to a delay in the
implementation of property taxes. We expect to record interest of $1.9 million
from these notes in 2001. The minority interest allocation of losses decreased
to $314,000 in 2000 from $830,000 in 1999, mainly due to improved result in our
operations in Puerto Rico.

Income Taxes

Income taxes increased to $716,000 in 2000 from $273,000 in 1999. Our tax rate
varies depending on the level of our earnings in the various tax jurisdictions
where we operate, the tax loss carry-forwards and tax exemptions available to
us. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and "Business - Tax
Exemptions and Benefits."

Net Earnings (Loss)

Our net income was $18.5 million in 2000 compared to a net loss of $3.3 million
in 1999. This change in profitability was primarily attributable to the profit
recognized on the sales of assets in the beginning of the year, net interest
income, and to a lesser extent, reduced operating loss.

Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 1999 with Year Ended December 31, 1998

Revenue

Our revenue was $68.0 million in 1999 and $66.2 million in 1998. This 2.8
percent increase reflects an increase in materials revenue, partially offset by
decreases in construction and in other revenue.

Our materials revenue increased 9.6 percent to $55.3 million in 1999 from $50.4
million in 1998. This increase was primarily due to increased demand for this
division's products on certain Caribbean islands, partially offset by decreased
demand on other Caribbean islands, particularly due to disruptions from
hurricanes Georges and Lenny.

Revenue from our construction division decreased 17.2 percent to $12.7 million
in 1999 from $15.4 million in 1998. This decrease resulted from finishing some
medium-sized contracts during 1999 and a slowdown of our work in connection with
the $23.8 million contract in Exuma, Bahamas. Our backlog of unfilled portions
of land development contracts at December 31, 1999 was $18.7 million involving 6
projects, as compared to $16.3 million involving 10 projects at December 31,
1998. The backlog of the contract in the Bahamas at December 31, 1999 was $15.1
million. See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 7
"Liquidity and Capital Resources".

Cost of Materials

Cost of materials rose slightly to 83.8 percent of revenue in 1999 from 81.8
percent in 1998. The cost increase was due to higher production costs in St.
Martin, Saba and Puerto Rico, offset to a lesser extent by improved sales
volumes and, therefore, better margins on Antigua and Dominica.

Cost of Construction

Cost of construction increased to 86.5 percent of revenue in 1999 from 84.0
percent in 1998. Increased costs as a percent of revenue were due to lower
profitability on some 1999 contracts. Our gross margins were also affected by
the profitability of each contract and the stage of completion.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expense") increased by 14.8
percent to $13.0 million in 1999 from $11.3 million in 1998. This increase is
primarily due to accruals in connection with collective bargaining agreements
and due to increased costs on some of the islands, most notably Antigua and St.
Martin. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 19.1 percent in
1999 from 17.1 percent in 1998.

In the fourth quarter of 1998 we accrued $1.5 million for legal fees and a write
off of a receivable related to a Florida State Court judgment. We also reduced
our provision for litigation by $2.0 million, due to the partial settlement on
another lawsuit. In 1999 we reduced our provision for litigation by $1.2 million
due to the settlement of two major lawsuits.

Due to hurricane damages and lower volumes, management upon its review in 1999
of long-lived assets, determined that impairment had occurred to some of our
assets. A significant portion of our quarry assets in Saba were written down due
to hurricane damages on the island, particularly the adjacent harbor


                                       16
<PAGE>

used for export of aggregates. Idle assets on St. Kitts and St. Croix were also
impaired. An impairment loss was recognized of $805,000 in 1999, compared to no
expense in 1998.

Substantially due to the write down in 1999 of one note receivable in St. Croix
by $200,000, the provision for doubtful accounts in 1999 was an expense of
$231,000 compared to a benefit of $65,000 in 1998.

Divisional Operating (Loss) Income

The operating loss was $2.2 million in 1999 compared to income of $945,000 in
1998. Our materials division had an operating loss of $2.2 million in 1999,
representing a decrease of $2.9 million compared to income of $693,000 in 1998.
This decrease in profitability was primarily due to accruals in connection with
collective bargaining agreements, the impairment of assets on Saba and St.
Kitts, and losses incurred on Puerto Rico and St. Martin, offset to a small
extent by improved profit margin on some islands. Our construction division had
an operating loss of $301,000 in 1999 compared to income of $714,000 in 1998, a
deterioration of $1.0 million. This decrease is mainly attributable to lower
activity specifically due to the slowdown of the contract in the Bahamas and a
$200,000 write down of a note.

Other Income

We had gains on sale of property and equipment of $14,000 in 1999 compared to
$507,000 in 1998. We recognized in 1998 $278,000 in profit on the sale of our
share of the CorbKinnon joint venture. Our interest expense increased to $2.4
million in 1999 from $2.1 million in 1998. This increase is due to increased
loan balances and rising interest rates in 1999. Our interest income decreased
to $630,000 in 1999 compared to $1.1 million 1998. This is due to our
recognizing less income from cash receipts in excess of anticipated amounts from
agreed upon sources from the notes receivable due from the Government of Antigua
and Barbuda.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased to $273,000 in 1999 from $339,000 in 1998. Our tax rate
varies depending on the level of our earnings in the various tax jurisdictions
where we operate, the level of operating loss carry-forwards and tax exemptions
available to us. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and
"Business - Tax Exemptions and Benefits."

Net (Loss) Earnings

Our net loss was $3.3 million in 1999 compared to income of $484,000 in 1998.
This change in profitability was primarily attributable to decreased gross
profit of $1.1 million, accrual of severance of $1.0 million, an impairment loss
of $805,000, increased provision for doubtful accounts and notes of $231,000,
increased interest cost of $295,000, reduced interest income of $448,000, offset
to a lesser extent by an increased credit for litigation of $699,000 and
increased minority interest income of $670,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generally fund our working capital needs from operations and bank borrowings.
In the construction business, we expend considerable funds for equipment, labor
and supplies. Our capital needs are greatest at the start of


                                       17
<PAGE>

a new contract, since we generally must complete 45 to 60 days of work before
receiving the first progress payment. As a project continues, a portion of the
progress billing is usually withheld as retainage until the work is complete. We
sometimes provide long-term financing to customers who have previously utilized
our construction services. Accounts receivable for the materials division are
typically outstanding for 60 days or longer. Our business requires a continuing
investment in plant and equipment, along with the related maintenance and upkeep
costs.

Management believes our cash flow from operations, existing working capital, and
funds available from lines of credit will be adequate to meet our needs during
the next 12 months.

As of December 31, 2000, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and
cash equivalents of $8.2 million and working capital of $14.0 million. As of
December 31, 2000, total outstanding liabilities were $19.7 million compared to
$42.5 million as of December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 2000, available lines
of credit totaled $1.3 million.

Cash flow provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2000
was $2.3 million compared with $2.4 million for the year ended December 31,
1999. The primary use of cash for operating activities during the year ended
December 31, 2000 was an increase in receivables of $4.5 million and an increase
in costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings of $1.1 million. The
primary source of cash from operating activities was an increase in accounts
payable and accrued expenses of $2.3 million.

Net cash provided by in investing activities was $17.8 million in 2000.
Purchases of property, plant, and equipment were $5.0 million. The purchases
were to a large extent paid in cash. Proceeds from disposition of businesses
were $23.2 million and purchases of treasury stock was $2.7 million.

We turned our fiscal year-end accounts receivable, excluding notes and employee
receivables, approximately 5.1 times in 2000 compared to 5.7 times in 1999. The
reduction resulted from a lower turnover rate for the materials division
accounts receivable, due to a reduction in the turnover rate in the U.S. Virgin
Islands and St. Martin. The construction division showed a small improvement.

On November 1, 1999, we extended a $1.0 million note to the venture in the
Bahamas, secured by equipment and guarantees. As of December 31, 2000 $826,000
was outstanding. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of
December 31, 2000 we had trade receivables, net of billings in excess of costs
and estimated earnings, from the venture of approximately $2.0 million;
subsequent to the year-end we received $778,000 in payments and issued $630,000
in additional contract billings. Our President has personally guaranteed $1.2
million of the outstanding trade receivables from the venture. We expect to
receive interim payments from the venture's cash resources to cover our
incremental costs while the venture is seeking its total financing.

The Company entered into a credit agreement with a Caribbean bank in November
1996 for a total credit of $7.0 million. One part of the credit agreement is a
term loan for $6.0 million, which was fully paid in 2000. The second part is a
revolving line of credit of $1.0 million. The credit line has a review and
re-approval process in July of each year until 2002. We had $300,000


                                       18
<PAGE>

outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 2000. The interest rate on
amounts borrowed under both loans varies with the prime rate.

We have a $500,000 unsecured overdraft facility from a commercial bank in the
Caribbean. The facility is due on demand and bears interest at 14.0 percent per
annum. At December 31, 2000, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under
this line.

At December 31, 2000 we had borrowed approximately $2.1 million from the Company
President. The note to the President is unsecured and bears interest at a rate
variable with the prime rate. Eight hundred thousand is due on demand and $1.3
million is due on April 1, 2002.

We purchase equipment as needed for our ongoing business operations. We are
currently replacing or upgrading some equipment used by the materials division,
principally concrete trucks and quarry equipment. This should result in a net
cash expenditure of approximately $3.5 million. At present, management believes
that our inventory of construction equipment is adequate for our current
contractual commitments and operating activities. New construction contracts
may, depending on the nature of the contract and job location and duration,
require us to make significant investments in heavy construction equipment.
During 2000 we sold equipment with an original cost basis of approximately
$657,000 and a net book value of approximately $146,000. The net proceeds were
approximately $254,000. During 2000 we also sold real property in the Caribbean
with net proceeds of $591,000. We realized a gain of approximately $154,000 on
these transactions. We believe we have available funds or can obtain sufficient
financing for our contemplated equipment replacements and additions.

Historically, we have used a number of lenders to finance a portion of our
machinery and equipment purchases. At December 31, 2000, amounts outstanding to
these lenders totaled $1.3 million. These loans are typically repaid over a
three to five-year term in monthly principal and interest installments.

A significant portion of our outstanding debt bears interest at variable rates.
A substantial increase in interest rates could negatively impact us.

Our notes receivable at December 31, 2000 include $7.5 million in promissory
notes from the Government of Antigua with approximately $138,000 classified as a
current receivable.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)      Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         (a)      Devcon International Corp. and its subsidiaries (the
                  "Company") produce and distribute ready-mix concrete, crushed
                  stone, concrete block, and asphalt and distribute bulk and
                  bagged cement in the Caribbean. The Company also performs
                  earthmoving, excavating and filling operations, builds golf
                  courses, roads, and utility infrastructures, dredges waterways
                  and constructs deep-water piers and marinas in the Caribbean.

         (b)      Principles of Consolidation

                  These consolidated financial statements include the accounts
                  of Devcon International Corp. and its majority-owned
                  subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and
                  transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

                  The Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and
                  affiliates are accounted for under the equity and cost
                  methods. Under the equity method, original investments are
                  recorded at cost and then adjusted by the Company's share of
                  undistributed earnings or losses of these ventures. Other
                  investments in unconsolidated joint ventures in which the
                  Company owns less than 20% are accounted for by using the cost
                  method.

         (c)      Revenue Recognition

                  Materials Division

                  Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered.

                  Construction Division

                  The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of
                  accounting for both financial statements and tax reports.
                  Revenue is recorded based on the Company's estimates of the
                  completion percentage of each project, based on the
                  cost-to-cost method. Anticipated contract losses, when
                  probable and estimatable, are charged to earnings. Changes in
                  estimated contract profits are recorded in the period of
                  change. Selling, general and administrative expenses are not
                  allocated to contract costs. Monthly billings are based on the
                  percentage of work completed in accordance with each specific
                  contract. While some contracts extend longer, most are
                  completed within one year.

                  Other

                  Other revenue consists of revenue from a marina that the
                  Company sold in 1998. Revenue was recognized when products or
                  services were delivered.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (d)      Cash and Cash Equivalents

                  Cash and cash equivalents include cash, time deposits and all
                  highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of
                  three months or less.

         (e)      Notes Receivable

                  Notes receivable are recorded at cost, less the related
                  allowance for impaired notes receivable. Management,
                  considering current information and events regarding the
                  borrowers' ability to repay their obligations, considers a
                  note to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will
                  be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
                  contractual terms of the note agreement. When a loan is
                  considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is
                  measured based on the present value of expected future cash
                  flows discounted at the note's effective interest rate.
                  Impairment losses are included in the allowance for doubtful
                  accounts through a charge to bad debt expense.

         (f)      Inventories

                  The cost of sand, stone, cement and concrete block inventories
                  is determined using average costs approximating the first-in,
                  first-out (FIFO) method and is not in excess of market. All
                  other inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or
                  market.

         (g)      Property, Plant and Equipment

                  Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation
                  is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated
                  useful life of each asset. Leasehold improvements are
                  amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of
                  the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.

                  Useful lives or lease terms for each asset type are summarized
                  below:

                           Buildings                      15 - 40 years
                           Leasehold improvements          3 - 55 years
                           Equipment                       3 - 20 years
                           Furniture and fixtures          3 - 10 years

                  Assets not required for the Company's current or future
                  business operations are classified as assets held for sale.

         (h)      Foreign Currency Translation

                  All balances denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured
                  at year-end rates to the respective functional currency of
                  each consolidating company.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

                  For those subsidiaries, with a functional currency other than
                  the US dollar, assets and liabilities have been translated
                  into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income statement
                  accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange
                  rates during the period. The translation adjustment decreased
                  equity by $442,925 in 2000, $735,201 in 1999, and increased
                  equity by $340,624 in 1998.

         (i)      Intangible Assets

                  The excess of cost over the fair value of net assets in
                  acquired subsidiaries, and costs of non-compete agreements,
                  are amortized over five to fifteen year periods on a
                  straight-line basis. The Company regularly evaluates the
                  recoverability of its intangible assets and their amortization
                  periods to determine whether an adjustment to the carrying
                  value or a revision to the estimated useful lives is
                  appropriate. No intangible assets were remaining as of
                  December 31, 2000.

          (j)     Earnings (Loss) Per Share

                  The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with the
                  provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
                  128, "Earnings per Share," which establishes standards for
                  computing and presenting basic and diluted earnings per share.

                  Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings
                  (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
                  during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed
                  assuming the exercise of stock options and the related income
                  tax effects if not antidilutive. For loss periods, common
                  share equivalents are excluded from the calculation, as their
                  effect would be antidilutive. See Note 2 of Notes to
                  Consolidated Financial Statements for the computation of basic
                  and diluted earnings per share.

         (k)      Foreign Operations

                  Some of the Company's operations are conducted in foreign
                  areas of the Caribbean. In 2000, 49.7 percent of the Company's
                  revenue was derived from foreign operations. Overseas contract
                  work performed by the parent U.S. corporation is not
                  considered foreign revenue for purposes of this calculation.

         (l)      Income Taxes

                  Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
                  method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
                  the future tax consequences attributable to differences
                  between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
                  assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and
                  operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax
                  assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
                  expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
                  those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
                  settled. The effect on deferred tax

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

                  assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized
                  in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The
                  Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries file
                  consolidated federal and state income tax returns.
                  Subsidiaries located in U.S. possessions and foreign countries
                  file individual income tax returns. U.S. income taxes are not
                  provided on undistributed earnings which are expected to be
                  permanently reinvested by foreign subsidiaries, unless the
                  earnings can be repatriated in a tax-free manner.

          (m)     Use of Estimates

                  Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and
                  assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and
                  liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
                  liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements
                  in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
                  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

         (n)      Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
                  for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of

                  The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance SFAS
                  No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
                  and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."

                  This Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain
                  identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever
                  events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
                  value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of
                  assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the
                  carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected
                  to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to
                  be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by
                  the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed
                  the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are
                  reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value
                  less costs to sell.

                  In accordance with its policy, the Company recorded a charge
                  of approximately $702,000 in 2000 and $805,000 in 1999 for the
                  impairment of long-lived assets. The impairment of the assets
                  on Saba occurred due to the decision to close the business.
                  Impairment of goodwill recognized for the subsidiary on St.
                  Martin was due to low profitability. The materials segment had
                  $659,000 and the construction segment had $43,000 of
                  impairment losses in 2000.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (o)      Stock Option Plans

                  The Company applies the intrinsic value-based method of
                  accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
                  Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,"
                  and related interpretations, in accounting for its fixed plan
                  stock options. As such, compensation expense would be recorded
                  on the date of grant only if the current market price of the
                  underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. SFAS No. 123,
                  "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," established
                  accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair
                  value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee
                  compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS No. 123, the Company
                  has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based
                  method of accounting described above, and has adopted the
                  disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123.

         (p)       Reclassification

                  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
                  with the current year presentation.

(2)      Earnings Per Share

         The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted
         earnings per share data:

                                              2000        1999         1998

         Options                             350,971           --       21,525
                                           ---------    ---------    ---------

         Weighted average number of
           common shares outstanding -
           diluted                         4,201,537    4,481,304    4,520,460
                                           =========    =========    =========

         Options to purchase 560,300 shares of common stock at prices ranging
         from $2.17 to $3.75 per share, were outstanding for the year ended
         December 31, 1999, but were not included in the computation of diluted
         earnings per share because the inclusion of the options would be
         antidilutive. The options expire on various dates.

         The Company acquired a total of 805,350 of its outstanding common
         shares in 2000, of which 420,100 were received in partial consideration
         for the sale of the concrete operation in St. Thomas and the Tortola
         operation and 385,250 shares were repurchased on the Nasdaq market at
         an average cost of $6.97 per share.

         During 2000, the Company retired 675,850 shares and as of December 31,
         2000 the Company had 171,300 shares of treasury stock, which may be
         used for exercise of stock options or may be retired.

                                                  ===========       ===========

         Included in notes and other receivables are unsecured notes due from
         the Government of Antigua and Barbuda totaling a net amount of
         $7,483,329 and $8,247,941 in 2000 and 1999, respectively, approximately
         $138,000 of which is classified as a current receivable. In April 2000
         the Company amended the agreement with the Government of Antigua and
         Barbuda. The interest rate on the notes receivable was reduced from 10%
         to 6%. Since April 28, 2000 the Company has been recognizing interest
         income on the notes receivable for all payments. Prior to that date the
         Company recognized interest only for payments received in excess of
         agreed upon amounts. The gross balance of the notes is $30.7 million.

         The notes call for both quarterly and monthly principal and interest
         payments until maturity in 2015. The notes are being paid with the
         government's revenue from certain defined sources. The agreed upon
         sources are lease proceeds from a rental of a United States military
         base, fuel tax revenues and proceeds from a real estate venture. From
         time to time in the future the Company expects to forgive part of the
         gross balance to pay taxes and duties; therefore the notes may be paid
         off prior to the scheduled maturity. Cash receipts during 2000 were
         $2.1 million. Interest income recognized in 2000, 1999 and 1998 was
         $1,538,540, $417,147 and $746,120, respectively. The government has
         been delayed in their implementation of certain property taxes which
         were to provide funds for increased payments and, therefore, the agreed
         to additional payments of approximately $730,000 have not been
         received. Previously the Company had estimated that the Company would

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         record $2.1 million for year 2000 in interest from these Antigua notes,
         however, due to the fact that the payments received were less than was
         anticipated, the interest recorded was $1.5 million. We expect to
         record interest of $1.9 million from these notes in 2001. The Company
         will only record interest on the notes for payments received.

         Antigua-Barbuda Government Development Bonds 1994-1997 series amounting
         to $186,091 and $173,914 in 2000 and 1999, respectively, are included
         in the total due from the government of Antigua and Barbuda.

         The Company also has net trade receivables from various Antiguan
         government agencies of $29,796 and $75,179 in 2000 and 1999,
         respectively. Several of the Company's customers perform services for
         the Antiguan government and depend on payments from the government to
         satisfy their obligations to the Company.

         Trade notes receivable - other consist of the following:

         At December 31, 2000, the Company had equity interests in two real
         estate ventures consisting of a 1.2 percent equity interest in a real
         estate project in the Bahamas (see Note 12) and a 33.3 percent interest
         in a real estate company in Puerto Rico. Equity losses of $23,166 and
         $17,700 were recognized in 2000 and 1999, respectively, on all ventures
         accounted for under the equity method.

(6)      Fair Value of Financial Instruments

         The carrying amount of financial instruments including cash, cash
         equivalents, most of the receivables - net, other current assets,
         accounts payable trade and other, accrued expenses and other
         liabilities, notes payable to banks, and current installments of
         long-term debt approximated fair value at December 31, 2000 because of
         the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of debt and
         most notes receivable approximated fair value at December 31, 2000
         based upon the present value of estimated future cash flows. Given the
         nature of the notes and lack of comparable instruments, estimation of
         fair value of the notes due from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda
         is not practicable.

(7)      Long-term Debt

         Long-term debt consists of the following:

         Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary
         differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
         financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
         purposes, and (b) net operating loss carryforwards.

         Significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities results
         from the tax effects of temporary difference:

         The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2000
         was $5.3 million or about 89 percent of the potential deferred tax
         benefit.

         In April 1988, the U.S. Virgin Islands Industrial Development
         Commission (IDC) granted one of the Company's subsidiaries a 10-year
         tax exemption expiring in April 1998. With some conditions and
         exceptions, the Company's (1) production and sale of ready-mix
         concrete; (2) production and sale of concrete block on St. Thomas and
         St. Johns and outside of the U.S. Virgin Islands; (3) production and
         sale of sand and aggregate; and (4) bagging of cement from imported
         bulk cement, are 100 percent exempt from U.S. Virgin Islands real
         property, gross receipts (currently 4 percent) and excise taxes, 90
         percent exempt from U.S. Virgin Islands income taxes, and about 83
         percent exempt from U.S. Virgin Islands customs duties. In 1998, the
         Company was granted a five-year extension, through April 2003, of the
         previous benefits.

         At December 31, 2000, approximately $37.6 million of foreign
         subsidiaries' earnings have not been distributed and no U.S. income
         taxes have been provided on them. These earnings are considered
         permanently reinvested in the subsidiaries' operations, unless the
         earnings can be repatriated in a tax-free manner, and when earned, did
         not require income tax recognition under U.S. laws. Should the foreign
         subsidiaries distribute these earnings to the parent company or provide
         access to these earnings, taxes at the U.S. federal tax rate, net of
         foreign tax credits, may be incurred.

         At December 31, 2000, the Company had accumulated net operating loss
         carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in its
         Caribbean operations of about $14.6 million, which expire at various
         times through the year 2010.

         royalty payments due to the owners of the Societe des Carrieres de
         Grand Case (SCGC) quarry. See Note 16.

         During November 1997, the Company sold its leasehold right on a long
         term land lease with the Dutch government of St. Maarten, and recorded
         a $240,000 loss on disposition of leasehold. The property was partially
         vacated during 1998, and the Company entered into a month-to-month
         lease for a portion of the property.

         On February 3, 1998, the Company sold Crown Bay Marina on St. Thomas,
         U.S. Virgin Islands, for $3.3 million, which approximated the net book
         value and related costs of disposition. Proceeds were utilized to repay
         about $3.0 million in debt on the property. The related long term
         operating lease was assigned to the new owner.

(11)     Segment Reporting

         The Company is organized based on the products and services it
         provides. Under this organizational structure the Company has two
         reportable segments: materials and construction. Materials includes
         manufacturing and distribution of ready-mix concrete, block, crushed
         aggregate and cement. Construction consists of land development
         construction projects. The accounting policies of the segments are the
         same as those described in the summary of significant accounting
         policies.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(12)     Related Party Transactions

         The Company leases a 4.4 acre parcel of real property in Florida from
         the Company's President. Annual rent on the property was $49,303 in
         2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

         At December 31, 2000, the Company had a note payable of $2.1 million to
         the Company's President resulting from various advances made to the
         Company in previous years. The note is unsecured and bears interest at
         a rate variable with the prime rate. Eight hundred thousand dollars is
         due on demand and $1.3 million is due on April 1, 2002. The President
         has the option to make the note due on demand should a "Change of
         Control" occur. A Change of Control has occurred if a person or group
         acquires 15 percent or more of the common stock or announces a tender
         offer that, if successful, would result in ownership by a person or
         group of 15 percent or more of the common stock.

         At December 31, 2000 the Company had an investment and advances
         totaling $184,000 representing 1.2 percent interest in a real estate
         joint venture in which the President and one Board member also
         participate with equity interests of 11.3 percent and 1.0 percent,
         respectively. The investment is carried at cost, accordingly no income
         or loss has been recorded from this investment. The Company has a $23.8
         million contract with the venture to perform land preparation services.
         In connection with this contract, the Company has recorded revenue of
         $2.7 million during 2000. The backlog on the contract as of December
         31, 2000 was $12.3 million. The project has not yet received its total
         financing and completion of the project is pending additional
         financing. The Company has been advised by this entity that it has
         received a loan commitment letter from a bank, has entered into a
         contract with a reputable hotel chain for management of the hotel being
         built, and has received further financial commitments from other
         sources. All commitments are subject to significant conditions that the
         entity is currently working on fulfilling. Until the financing
         transaction is consummated there is uncertainty whether or not the
         project will receive its final financing. The Company is monitoring the
         situation closely.

         On November 1, 1999, the Company extended a $1.0 million note to the
         venture, secured by equipment. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated
         Financial Statements. As of December 31, 2000 the Company had trade
         receivables, net of billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings,
         from the venture of approximately $2.0 million. The Company's President
         has personally guaranteed up to $1.2 million of the outstanding trade
         receivables from the venture, subject to exhaustion by the Company of
         all other remedies. The Company expects to receive interim payments
         from the venture's cash resources to cover its incremental costs while
         the venture is seeking its total financing. Subsequent to year-end the
         Company received $778,000 in payments from the venture and issued
         $636,000 in additional contract billings.

         Other assets include amounts due from officers and employees as a
         result of payments made by the Company pursuant to a split-dollar life
         insurance plan. The Company's advances to pay premiums are secured by a
         pledge of the cash value of the issued policies. Amounts due to the

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         Company under the split-dollar life insurance plan was $853,488 in 2000
         and $763,337 in 1999, respectively.

(13)     Stock Option Plans

         The Company adopted stock option plans for officers and employees in
         1986, 1992 and 1999. While each plan terminates 10 years after the
         adoption date, issued options have their own schedule of termination.
         Until 1996, 2002 and 2009, options to acquire up to 300,000, 350,000
         shares, and 350,000 shares respectively, of common stock may be granted
         at no less than fair market value on the date of grant.

         All stock options granted pursuant to the 1986 Plan not already
         exercisable, vest and become fully exercisable (1) on the date the
         optionee reaches 65 years of age and for the six-month period
         thereafter or as otherwise modified by the Company's Board of
         Directors, (2) on the date of permanent disability of the optionee and
         for the six-month period thereafter, (3) on the date of a change of
         control and for the six-month period thereafter, and (4) on the date of
         termination of the optionee from employment by the Company without
         cause and for the six-month period after termination.

         Stock options granted under the 1992 and 1999 Plan vest and become
         exercisable in varying terms and periods set by the Compensation
         Committee of the Board of Directors. Options issued under the 1992 and
         1999 Plan expire after 10 years.

         The Company adopted a stock-option plan for directors in 1992 that
         terminates in 2002. Options to acquire up to 50,000 shares of common
         stock may be granted at no less than the fair-market value on the date
         of grant. The 1992 Directors' Plan provides each director an initial
         grant of 8,000 shares and additional grants of 1,000 shares annually
         immediately subsequent to their reelection as a director. Stock options
         have 10-year terms, vest and become fully exercisable six months after
         the issue date. Stock option activity by year was as follows:

(16)     Commitments and Contingencies

         The Company has contingent obligations and has made guarantees in
         connection with acquisitions, joint ventures, employee and construction
         bonding and a tax exemption. As part of the 1995 acquisition of Societe
         des Carrieres de Grand Case ("SCGC"), a French company operating a
         ready-mix concrete plant and quarry in St. Martin, the Company agreed
         to pay the quarry owners, who were also the owners of SCGC, a royalty
         payment of $550,000 per year through August 2005. The agreement may be
         renewed, at the Company's option, for a successive five-year period and
         would require annual payments of $550,000 per year. At the end of the
         15-year royalty period, the Company has the option to purchase this
         50-hectare property for $4.4 million.

         In June 2000, the Company entered into an amended Life Insurance and
         Salary Continuation Agreement with the Company President. The President
         shall receive a retirement benefit upon the sooner of his retirement
         from his position after March 31, 2003, or a change in control of the
         Company. Benefits to be received shall equal 75% of his base salary,
         and shall continue for the remainder of his life. In the event that he
         is survived by a spouse, then the surviving spouse shall receive a
         benefit equal to 100% of his base salary for the shorter of five years

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         or the remainder of the surviving spouse's life. The Company will
         recognize the expense of the retirement agreement over his expected
         remaining period of active employment with the Company. The expense
         related to this agreement was $220,000 in 2000.

         In the late 1980s, Bouwbedrijf Boven Winden, N.V., ("BBW") currently a
         Devcon subsidiary in the Netherlands Antilles, supplied concrete to a
         large apartment complex on the French side of St. Maarten. In the early
         1990s the buildings began to develop exterior cracking and "popouts."
         In November 1993, BBW was named one of several defendants including the
         building's insurer, in a suit filed by Syndicat des Coproprietaires la
         Residence Le Flamboyant (condominium owners association of Le
         Flamboyant), in the French court "Tribunal de Grande Instance de
         Paris", case No. 510082/93. A French court assigned an expert to
         examine the cause of the cracking and popouts and to determine if the
         cracking/popouts are caused by a phenomenon known as alkali reaction
         (ARS). The expert found, in his report dated December 3, 1998, BBW was
         responsible for the ARS. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages,
         including demolition and replacement of the 272 apartments. Based on
         the advice of legal counsel a judgment assessed in a French court would
         not be enforceable against a Netherlands Antilles company. Thus, the
         plaintiff would have to file the same claim in an Antillean court. It
         is too early to predict the final outcome of this matter and no actions
         have been taken in or by the court during 1999 and 2000. Management
         believes the Company's defenses to be meritorious and does not believe
         that the outcome will have a material adverse effect on the
         consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of
         the Company.

         The Company is involved in other litigation and claims arising in the
         normal course of business. The Company believes that such litigation
         and claims will be resolved without a material adverse effect on the
         Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

         The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws
         and regulations. Management believes that the Company is in compliance
         with these laws and regulations. Compliance with environmental
         protection laws has not had a material adverse impact on the Company's
         consolidated financial condition or results of operations and is not
         expected to have a material adverse impact in the foreseeable future.

         The Company sold substantially all of its interest in a real estate
         joint venture with the Government of Antigua and Barbuda to a third
         party in 1990. In connection with this sale, the purchaser assumed the
         Company's guarantee of payment to the Government of Antigua and Barbuda
         made upon the formation of the joint venture. This guarantee, which
         would become an obligation of the Company in the event of a default by
         the purchaser, provides that net profits from the joint venture's
         operations will equal or exceed $20,000 per month. No liability has
         been incurred by the Company nor have payments been made by the Company
         or the purchaser in connection with this guarantee. The guarantee
         expires upon the earlier of the sale or disposal by the venture of its
         real estate or September 2003. There are no current plans to sell or
         dispose of any of the venture's property.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(17)     Business and Credit Concentrations

         The Company's customers are concentrated in the Caribbean and are
         primarily involved in contracting. Credit risk may be affected by
         economic and political conditions in the countries where the Company
         operates. Potential concentrations of credit risk include receivables
         and costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings. No single
         customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's sales in 2000,
         1999 or 1998 and there are no receivables from a single customer that
         represent more than 10% of total receivables as of December 31, 2000 or
         1999, other than the notes receivable from the Government of Antigua
         and Barbuda and the receivable from the construction project in the
         Bahamas. Although receivables are generally not collateralized, the
         Company may place liens or their equivalent in the event of nonpayment.
         The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the
         creditworthiness of customers as well as general economic conditions of
         the countries where it operates. An adverse change in these factors
         would affect the Company's estimate of bad debts.

         The Company has a construction project with a backlog of $12.3 million.
         A subsidiary and two of the Company's directors are minority partners
         of, and the Company's President is Chairman of, the entity developing
         the project. This partnership does not yet have the financing to
         complete the project, therefore, the amount of the backlog could
         substantially diminish and the timing of completion of the contract
         could vary.

         The Company has separate union agreements with its employees on St.
         Thomas, St. Croix and Antigua. The agreement on St. Thomas expires
         March 2003, on St. Croix March 2001 and on Antigua November 2000. The
         Company is currently finalizing new contracts for the unions on St.
         Croix and Antigua. There can be no assurance that said agreements will
         be renewed without labor disturbances or conflicts. In the past there
         have been no labor conflicts.

         Management believes the Company's ability to produce its own sand and
         stone gives it a competitive advantage because of the substantial
         investment required to produce sand and stone, the difficulty in
         obtaining the necessary environmental permits to establish quarries,
         and the moratorium on mining beach sand imposed by most Caribbean
         countries. If the Company is unable to produce its own sand and stone,
         the consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash
         flows could be adversely affected.

(18)     Sale of Businesses

         In January 7, 2000 the Company closed a transaction to sell certain
         concrete related assets on St. Thomas, USVI and the subsidiary Devcon
         Masonry Products (BVI), Ltd. to a purchaser and the purchaser's related
         parties. The selling price was $6 million in cash, a note for $2.5
         million payable over three years and 420,100 shares of Devcon
         International Corp. held by the buyer. The shares were valued at $2.4
         million at the day of closing. The book value of the assets sold,
         including certain expenses and deferred gain due to a $1 million
         contingency accrual, was $8.7 million. Therefore, the Company realized
         in the first quarter of 2000 a gain on this transaction before tax of
         $2.2 million.

         On February 3, 2000 the Company closed a transaction to sell real
         property in St. Croix. The selling price was $2.3 million in cash, and
         the book value of the property was $1.9 million. As a result, the
         Company realized a gain on the transaction in the first quarter of
         approximately $336,000 before taxes.

         On February 22, 2000 the Company closed a transaction to sell certain
         bulk cement terminal assets on four of the islands in the Caribbean.
         The purchasers were Union Maritima International (UMAR) and some of its
         affiliated companies. The selling price was $19.6 million in cash. The
         book value of the assets, including certain expenses and contingency
         accruals, was $3.8 million, resulting in a gain on the transaction of
         $15.8 million before taxes. The Company simultaneously entered into an
         agreement to manage the terminals for one year. This management
         agreement was amended and renewed on March 1, 2001 for an additional
         year, with a 90-day termination option for both parties. The Company
         also entered into a supply agreement to buy cement from the terminals
         for five years for its own use in the Company's batch and block plants.
         The agreement has stipulations so that the Company will be able to
         enjoy the best price available in the local market from any cement
         supplier. The Company sold cement to third parties in 1999 and entered
         into a one-year contract to distribute cement on these four islands.
         This distribution agreement was terminated on March 1, 2001.

         On March 16, 2000 the Company closed on a related transaction to sell
         its subsidiary in Dominica to an affiliated company of UMAR. The
         selling price was $4.1 million plus an earnout of 50% of the profits or
         losses of a portion of the Company's operations. The book value of the
         assets, including certain expenses and contingency accruals, was $3.0
         million. The gain of $1.1 million on the transaction will be deferred
         to the first quarter of 2002, when the earnout period has finished.

         WHEREAS the Company and the Employee therefore wish to amend and
restate the Life Insurance and Salary Continuation Agreement as the Salary
Continuation and Retirement Benefit Agreement so as to provide the Employee with
a Retirement Benefit, and to provide the Surviving Spouse of the Employee with a
Survivor Benefit in accordance with the terms set forth herein.

                                    AGREEMENT

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual
promises hereinafter set forth and of other good and valuable consideration, the
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be
legally bound, hereby amend and restate the Life Insurance and Salary
Continuation Agreement as the Salary Continuation and Retirement Benefit
Agreement (the "Agreement"), and agree as follows:

         Section 1. Salary Continuation Death Benefit. If the Employee shall
cease to be employed by the Company as a result of his Disability (as defined
below) or death, the Company shall pay monthly payments (as calculated below) as
provided herein for a period of sixty (60)

<PAGE>

consecutive months, commencing on the first day of the calendar month coinciding
with or immediately following the date the Employee's employment is terminated
by reason of his Disability or death. For purposes of this Agreement, Disability
shall be defined to mean the Employee's permanent mental or physical disability
as determined by a licensed medical physician satisfactory to the Company. The
amount of each monthly payment shall be equal to the sum of (i) the Employee's
monthly salary for the last full month immediately preceding the month the
Employee's employment is terminated, and (ii) one-twelfth of the Employee's
annual bonus in the calendar year immediately preceding such termination. The
monthly payments shall be paid to the Employee, or if the Employee should die
before all of the payments required under this provision have been made, to the
beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by the Employee by written notice to the
Company, or if no beneficiary has been designated or then shall be living, to
the Employee's estate.

         Section 2. Retirement Benefits.

              (a) If the Employee's employment with the Company terminates on or
after the earlier of (i) March 31, 2003, or (ii) the date on which a Change in
Control of the Company occurs, and such termination is for any reason other than
the death or Disability (as defined in Section 1 hereof) of the Employee, then
the Company shall pay the Employee a monthly retirement benefit (the "Retirement
Benefit") equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the Employee's highest monthly
base salary during the twenty-four-month period immediately preceding the date
on which the Employee's employment terminates (the "Retirement Date"). Payment
of the Retirement Benefit shall commence on the first day of the calendar month
coinciding with or immediately following the Employee's Retirement Date and
shall continue with the final payment being due on the first day of the calendar
month coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of the Employee's death.

              (b) In the event that the Employee dies after his Retirement Date
and is survived by a spouse to whom he was married on his Retirement Date (the
"Surviving Spouse"), then the Company shall pay the Surviving Spouse a monthly
benefit equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Employee's highest monthly
base salary during the twenty-four-month period immediately preceding his
Retirement Date (the "Survivor Benefit"). The Survivor Benefit shall be payable
to the Surviving Spouse on a monthly basis commencing on the first day of the
month immediately following the date on which the Employee dies and continuing
with the final payment being due on the earlier of (i) the first day of the
sixtieth calendar month following the date on which the Employee dies, or (ii)
the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or immediately preceding the
date of the Surviving Spouse's death.

              (c) For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Change in
Control" shall mean:

                           (i) Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a
reorganization, merger, consolidation or other form of corporate transaction or
series of transactions, in each case, with respect to which persons who were the
shareholders of the Company immediately

                                       2
<PAGE>

prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation or other transaction do
not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined
voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the
reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting
securities, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately
prior to such reorganization, merger, consolidation or other transaction, or a
liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company (unless such reorganization, merger,
consolidation or other corporate transaction, liquidation, dissolution or sale
is subsequently abandoned); or

                           (ii) Individuals who, as of the Effective Date,
constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute
at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director
subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or nomination for election by
the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the
directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or
nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection
with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the
Directors of the Company) shall be, for purposes of this Agreement, considered
as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or

                           (iii) The acquisition (other than from the Company)
by any person, entity or "group", within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or
14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act, of beneficial ownership (within the
meaning of Rule 13-d promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act) of more than
twenty-five percent (25%) of either the then outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding
voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors
(hereinafter referred to as the ownership of a "Controlling Interest")
excluding, for this purpose, any acquisitions by (1) the Company or its
Subsidiaries, (2) any person, entity or "group" that as of the Effective Date
owns beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act) of a Controlling Interest, or (3) any employee
benefit plan of the Company or its subsidiaries.

         Section 3. Claims Procedure. In the event that any Employee or any
beneficiary claims to be entitled to benefits under this Agreement and the
Company determines that such claim should be denied in whole or in part, the
Company shall, in writing, notify such claimant within ninety (90) days of
receipt of such claim that his claim has been denied, setting forth the specific
reasons for such denial. Such notification shall be written in a manner
reasonably expected to be understood by such Employee or any beneficiary and
shall set forth the pertinent sections of the Agreement relied on, and where
appropriate, an explanation of how the claimant can obtain review of such
denial. Within sixty (60) days after the mailing or delivery by the Company of
such notice, such claimant may request, by mailing or delivery of written notice
to the Company, a review and/or hearing by the Company of the decision denying
the claim. If the claimant fails to request such a review and/or hearing within
such sixty (60) day period, it shall be conclusively determined for all purposes
of this Agreement that the denial of such claim by the Company is correct. If
such claimant requests a hearing within such sixty (60) day period,

                                       3
<PAGE>

the Company shall designate a time (which time shall not be less than seven (7)
nor more than sixty (60) days from the date of such claimant's notice to the
Company) and a place for such hearing, and shall promptly notify such claimant
of such time and place. A claimant or his authorized representative shall be
entitled to inspect all pertinent documents and to submit issues and comments in
writing. If only a review is requested, the claimant shall have sixty (60) days
after filing a request for review to submit additional written material in
support of the claim. After such review and/or hearing, the Company shall
promptly determine whether such denial of the claim was correct and shall notify
such claimant in writing of its determination with sixty (60) days after such
review and/or hearing or after receipt of any additional information submitted.

         Section 4. Unfunded Arrangement. The obligations of the Company under
this Agreement shall be paid from the general assets of the Company and not from
any particular fund. It is intended that this arrangement shall constitute an
"unfunded" arrangement for a select group of management or highly compensated
employees under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
Any assets acquired by the Company relating to this arrangement shall be subject
to the claims of the Company's creditors, shall be considered general assets of
the Company and shall not be subject to any claims by the Employee or any
beneficiary thereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be interpreted to
grant to any Employee or any beneficiary, any right, title or interest in any
assets of the Company, and the Employee and any beneficiaries shall be unsecured
general creditors of the Company with respect to any rights they may have to
benefits under the Agreement.

         Section 5. Notices. All notices under this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be given by personal delivery, by telegram, or by registered

<PAGE>

Company's legal obligation to withhold any and all appropriate federal, state,

Employee by the Federal Insurance Contributions Act ("FICA"), as applicable to
any and all payments made by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

         Section 7. Certain Additional Payments by the Company. Anything in this

payments required under this Section 7) (a "Payment") would be subject to an
excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Employee
with respect to any such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such
interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise
Tax"), the Company shall make a payment to the Employee (a "Gross-Up Payment")
in an amount such that after payment by the Employee of all taxes (including any
Excise Tax) imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Employee retains (or has had
paid to the Internal Revenue Service on his behalf) an amount of the Gross-Up
Payment equal to the sum of (x) the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments and (y)
the product of any deductions disallowed because of the inclusion of the
Gross-Up Payment in the Employee's adjusted gross income and the highest
applicable marginal rate of federal income taxation for the calendar year in
which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made. For purposes of determining the amount
of the Gross-Up Payment, the Employee shall be deemed to (i) pay federal income
taxes at the highest marginal rates of federal income taxation for the calendar
year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, and (ii) pay applicable state
and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation for the calendar
year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of the maximum reduction
in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and
local taxes.

         Section 8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida

or violation.

         This Note shall bear interest from the date of this Note until maturity
         at the rate of 6% per annum and thereafter at the rate provided in Item
         5.

3.       Dredging and Deep Water Pier Construction Agreement

         This Note is being issued pursuant to that certain Dredging and
         Deepwater Pier Construction Agreement and all exhibits thereto between
         Maker and Payee dated April 3, 1987 (the "Agreement") and all other
         amendments thereto (the "Amendments"). This Note consolidates and
         replaces the promissory notes listed in Exhibit A to this Promissory
         Note. It is expressly understood and agreed that the terms of this Note
         are subject to the terms of the Agreement and the Amendments. Terms
         defined in the Agreement and the Amendments shall have the same meaning
         when used herein. In the case of any conflict this Note shall prevail.

4.       Events of Default

         The unpaid balance of the Note, including principal and accrued
         interest, shall at the option of Payee become immediately due and
         payable upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events
         ("Events of Default"), regardless of the cause thereof and whether
         within or beyond the control of the Maker:

         (a)      The failure of Maker to pay any sum due under this Note within
                  60 days after notice to Maker that a payment has not been made
                  when due.

                  this Note.

         From and after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event
         of Default, regardless of whether Payee also elects to accelerate the
         maturity of the Note, at Payee's sole option the unpaid balance of the
         Note shall bear interest at 10% (the "Default Rate"); provided,
         however, that after judgment all such sums shall bear interest at the
         greater of the Default Rate or the rate prescribed by applicable law
         for judgments. All interest which accrues at the Default Rate shall be
         due and payable on Payee's demand from time to time.

6.       Rights and Remedies of Payee

         Payee shall be entitled to pursue any and all rights and remedies
         provided by applicable law and/or under the terms of this Note, all of
         which shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or
         concurrently. Payee's delay in exercising or failure to exercise any
         rights or remedies to which Payee may be entitled if any Event of
         Default occurs shall not constitute a waiver of any of Payee's rights
         or remedies with respect to that or any subsequent Event of Default,
         whether of the same or a different nature, nor shall any single or
         partial exercise of any right or remedy by Payee preclude any other or
         further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No waiver of any
         right or remedy by Payee shall be effective unless made in writing and
         signed by Payee, nor shall any waiver on one occasion apply to any
         future occasion, but shall be effective only with respect to the
         specific occasion addressed in that signed writing.

7.       Waiver and Consent

         To the fullest extent permitted by law Maker hereby: (a) waives demand,
         presentment, protest, notice of dishonor, suit against or joinder of
         any other person, and all other requirements necessary to charge or
         hold Maker liable with respect to the Note (except as otherwise
         expressly set forth herein); (b) waives any right to interpose any
         set-off or counterclaim or to plead any statute of limitations as a
         defense in any such action or proceeding. No provision of this Note
         shall limit Payee's right to serve legal process in any manner
         permitted by law or to bring any such action or proceeding in any
         competent jurisdiction. Until Payee receives all sums due under this
         Note in immediately available funds, Maker shall not be released from
         liability with respect to the Note unless Payee expressly releases
         Maker in a writing signed by Payee.

8.       Costs, Indemnities and Expenses

         Maker agrees to pay all filing fees and similar charges and all costs
         incurred by Payee in collection or securing or attempting to collect or
         secure the Note, including reasonable attorney's fees, whether or not
         involving arbitration, litigation and/or appellate or administrative
         proceedings. Maker agrees to pay any documentary stamp taxes,
         intangible taxes, withholding tax or other taxes which may now or
         hereafter apply to any payment made in respect of the Note, and Maker
         agrees to indemnify and hold Payee harmless from and against any
         liability, reasonable costs, reasonable attorney's fees, penalties,
         interest or expenses relating to any such taxes, as and when the same
         may be incurred.

9.       Maximum Interest Rate

         In no event shall any agreed to or actual exaction charged, reserved or
         taken as an advance or forbearance by Payee as consideration for the
         Note exceed the limits (if any) imposed or provided by the law
         applicable from time to time to the Note for the use or detention of
         money or for forbearance in seeking its collection; Payee hereby waives
         any right to demand such excess. In the event that the interest
         provisions of this Note or any exactions provided for in this Note
         shall result at any time or for any reason in an effective rate of
         interest that transcends the maximum interest rate permitted by
         applicable law (if any), then without further agreement or notice the
         obligation to be fulfilled shall be automatically reduced to such limit
         and all sums received by Payee in excess of those lawfully collectible
         as interest shall be applied against the principal of the Note
         immediately upon Payee's receipt thereof, with the same force and
         effect as though the Maker had specifically designated such extra sums
         to be applied to principal and Payee had agreed to accept such extra
         payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment or prepayments. During any time
         that the Note bears interest at the maximum lawful rate (whether by
         application of this paragraph, the Default Rate provisions of this Note
         or otherwise), interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual
         number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days.

10.      Governing Law

         The Note shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance
         with, the laws of Antigua and Barbuda, W.I., as currently in effect and
         subject to the principles of public international law. Antigua hereby
         irrevocably and unconditionally waives any and all defenses it may have
         based in whole or in part upon the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

11.      Severability

         Any provision of this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
         jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction only, be ineffective only
         to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
         invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity
         or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.      Interpretation

         The term "Payee" shall be deemed to include any subsequent holder(s) of
         this Note. Whenever used in this Note, words in the singular include
         the plural, words in the plural include the singular, and pronouns of
         any gender include the other genders, all as may be appropriate.
         Captions and paragraph headings in this Note are for convenience of
         reference only and shall not affect its interpretation.

13.      Miscellaneous

         Time shall be of the essence with respect to the terms of this Note.
         This Note cannot be changed or modified orally. This Note may be
         prepaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty. Unless
         otherwise provided in the Agreement, no prepayment need include imputed
         interest not accrued through the date of prepayment, and no imputed
         interest shall accrue thereafter on any amount prepaid. In furtherance
         of the above, except as otherwise required by law or by the provisions
         of this Note or designated by Payee, payments received by Payee
         hereunder shall be applied first against interest accrued on the Note,
         and next in reduction of the remaining balance of the Note, except that
         during the continuance of any Event of Default Payee may apply such
         payments in any order to priority determined by Payee in its exclusive
         judgement. Except as otherwise required by the provisions of this Note
         or designated by Payee, any notice required to be given to Maker shall
         be deemed sufficient if made personally or if mailed, postage prepaid,
         to Maker's address as it appears on the signature page of this Note (as
         the same may hereinafter be changed by written notice to Payee from
         Maker).

THIS NOTE IS SIGNED, SEALED, AND DELIVERED AS OF THE DATE FIRST WRITTEN ABOVE BY
AND THROUGH ITS SIGNATORY DULY AUTHORIZED.

in like lawful money from the date hereof at a rate per annum upon the unpaid

         instead be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall
         accrue accordingly.

         Maker shall utilize the sources of payment set forth in that certain

         This Note shall bear interest from the date of this Note until maturity
         at the rate of 6% per annum and thereafter at the rate provided in Item
         5.

3.       Dredging and Deep Water Pier Cconstruction Agreement

         This Note is being issued pursuant to that certain Dredging and
         Deepwater Pier Construction Agreement and all exhibits thereto between
         Maker and Payee dated April 3, 1987 (the "Agreement") and all other
         amendments thereto (the "Amendments"). This Note consolidates and
         replaces the promissory notes listed in Exhibit A to this Promissory
         Note. It is expressly understood and agreed that the terms of this Note
         are subject to the terms of the Agreement and the Amendments. Terms
         defined in the Agreement and the Amendments shall have the same meaning
         when used herein. In the case of any conflict this Note shall prevail.

4.       Events of Default

         The unpaid balance of the Note, including principal and accrued
         interest, shall at the option of Payee become immediately due and
         payable upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events
         ("Events of Default"), regardless of the cause thereof and whether
         within or beyond the control of the Maker:

         (a)      The failure of Maker to pay any sum due under this Note within

                  due.

         Note shall bear interest at 10% (the "Default Rate"); provided,
         however, that after judgment all such sums shall bear interest at the
         greater of the Default Rate or the rate prescribed by applicable law

6.       Rights and Remedies of Payee

         Payee shall be entitled to pursue any and all rights and remedies
         provided by applicable law and/or under the terms of this Note, all of
         which shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or
         concurrently. Payee's delay in exercising or failure to exercise any
         rights or remedies to which Payee may be entitled if any Event of
         Default occurs shall not constitute a waiver of any of Payee's rights
         or remedies with respect to that or any subsequent Event of Default,
         whether of the same or a different nature, nor shall any single or
         partial exercise of any right or remedy by Payee preclude any other or
         further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No waiver of any
         right or remedy by Payee shall be effective unless made in writing and
         signed by Payee, nor shall any waiver on one occasion apply to any
         future occasion, but shall be effective only with respect to the
         specific occasion addressed in that signed writing.

7.       Waiver and Consent

         To the fullest extent permitted by law Maker hereby: (a) waives demand,
         presentment, protest, notice of dishonor, suit against or joinder of
         any other person, and all other requirements necessary to charge or
         hold Maker liable with respect to the Note (except as otherwise
         expressly set forth herein); (b) waives any right to interpose any
         set-off or counterclaim or to plead any statute of limitations as a
         defense in any such action or proceeding. No provision of this Note
         shall limit Payee's right to serve legal process in any manner
         permitted by law or to bring any such action or proceeding in any
         competent jurisdiction. Until Payee receives all sums due under this
         Note in immediately available funds, Maker shall not be released from
         liability with respect to the Note unless Payee expressly releases
         Maker in a writing signed by Payee.

8.       Costs, Indemnities and Expenses

         Maker agrees to pay all filing fees and similar charges and all costs
         incurred by Payee in collection or securing or attempting to collect or
         secure the Note, including reasonable attorney's fees, whether or not
         involving arbitration, litigation and/or appellate or administrative
         proceedings. Maker agrees to pay any documentary stamp taxes,
         intangible taxes, withholding tax or other taxes which may now or
         hereafter apply to any payment made in respect of the Note, and Maker
         agrees to indemnify and hold Payee harmless from and against any
         liability, reasonable costs, reasonable attorney's fees, penalties,
         interest or expenses relating to any such taxes, as and when the same
         may be incurred.

9.       Maximum Interest Rate

         In no event shall any agreed to or actual exaction charged, reserved or
         taken as an advance or forbearance by Payee as consideration for the
         Note exceed the limits (if any) imposed or provided by the law
         applicable from time to time to the Note for the use or detention of
         money or for forbearance in seeking its collection; Payee hereby waives
         any right to demand such excess. In the event that the interest
         provisions of this Note or any exactions provided for in this Note
         shall result at any time or for any reason in an effective rate of
         interest that transcends the maximum interest rate permitted by
         applicable law (if any), then without further agreement or notice the
         obligation to be fulfilled shall be automatically reduced to such limit
         and all sums received by Payee in excess of those lawfully collectible
         as interest shall be applied against the principal of the Note
         immediately upon Payee's receipt thereof, with the same force and
         effect as though the Maker had specifically designated such extra sums
         to be applied to principal and Payee had agreed to accept such extra
         payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment or prepayments. During any time
         that the Note bears interest at the maximum lawful rate (whether by
         application of this paragraph, the Default Rate provisions of this Note
         or otherwise), interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual
         number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days.

10.      Governing Law

         The Note shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance
         with, the laws of Antigua and Barbuda, W.I., as currently in effect and
         subject to the principles of public international law. Antigua hereby
         irrevocably and unconditionally waives any and all defenses it may have
         based in whole or in part upon the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

11.      Severability

         Any provision of this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
         jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction only, be ineffective only
         to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
         invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity
         or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.      Interpretation

         The term "Payee" shall be deemed to include any subsequent holder(s) of
         this Note. Whenever used in this Note, words in the singular include
         the plural, words in the plural include the singular, and pronouns of
         any gender include the other genders, all as may be appropriate.
         Captions and paragraph headings in this Note are for convenience of
         reference only and shall not affect its interpretation.

13.      Miscellaneous

         Time shall be of the essence with respect to the terms of this Note.
         This Note cannot be changed or modified orally. This Note may be
         prepaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty. Unless
         otherwise provided in the Agreement, no prepayment need include imputed
         interest not accrued through the date of prepayment, and no imputed
         interest shall accrue thereafter on any amount prepaid. In furtherance
         of the above, except as otherwise required by law or by the provisions
         of this Note or designated by Payee, payments received by Payee
         hereunder shall be applied first against interest accrued on the Note,
         and next in reduction of the remaining balance of the Note, except that
         during the continuance of any Event of Default Payee may apply such
         payments in any order to priority determined by Payee in its exclusive
         judgement. Except as otherwise required by the provisions of this Note
         or designated by Payee, any notice required to be given to Maker shall
         be deemed sufficient if made personally or if mailed, postage prepaid,
         to Maker's address as it appears on the signature page of this Note (as
         the same may hereinafter be changed by written notice to Payee from
         Maker).

THIS NOTE IS SIGNED, SEALED, AND DELIVERED AS OF THE DATE FIRST WRITTEN ABOVE BY
AND THROUGH ITS SIGNATORY DULY AUTHORIZED.
