The Registrant has been in discussions with respect to (i) the renegotiation of
existing service contracts that are ongoing with its affiliate dental practices
and (ii) certain compliance issues with its secured lender. The existing service
contracts would, if amended as currently contemplated by the parties, affect the
valuation of the Registrant's intangibles and would result in a charge against
earnings which, in turn, would affect compliance with certain of the financial
covenants in the Registrant's secured credit agreements. The Registrant is
currently not in compliance with certain of the covenants of its $15 million
bank credit facility with Bank One of Texas, N.A. (the "Bank One Facility"). The
Registrant is currently renegotiating certain of the covenants of the Bank One
Facility, which the Company anticipates will be completed prior to July 14,
2000. The resolution of these issues has delayed the completion of the Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000.

receivable and notes receivable from affiliated dental practices. In the year

related to doubtful collections of accounts receivable and notes receivable from
affiliated dental practices of approximately $4.5 million on a pre-tax basis. In
