filed with the prescribed time period. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
The Company's preparation of its financial statements for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1999, and the audit thereof, took longer than anticipated due, in
part, to the Company's change in independent auditors in May 1999 and problems
with internal computer software programs. Although the Company has worked
diligently on preparing said financial statements and other items of the Form
10-KSB, an additional time of one day or two days is required in order to

Company expects to file its Form 10-KSB no later than September 30, 1999.

SCHEDULE A
The Company's results of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999
are expected to change significantly from the results of operations for the
prior period.
The Company expects a net loss for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 of
approximately $2,628,433, or $(.51) per share, as compared to a net loss of
$97,438, or $(.02) per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998. The
increase in the loss is due primarily to a decrease in sales, together with a
decrease in gross margin as a result of a less profitable product mix and fixed
overhead and manufacturing expenses.
