                      1999 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

     The Company's executive offices are located at 107 Audubon Road, #5,

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy
Card are first being sent to stockholders on or about November 5, 1999.

     The Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on November 3, 1999
as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of
and to vote at the Annual Meeting (the "Record Date"). Only stockholders of
record of the Company's common stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Common
Stock"), at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to notice
of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were
5,207,320 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting. Holders of Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on the
Record Date will be entitled to one vote for each share held by them.

     The presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of at least a majority of
the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote is
necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual
Meeting. The affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of
Common Stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required for the
election of directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes are each included in the
number of shares present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of establishing a
quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of
the election of directors.

     STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE REQUESTED TO COMPLETE, DATE, SIGN AND
PROMPTLY RETURN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD IN THE ENCLOSED POSTAGE-PREPAID
ENVELOPE. SHARES REPRESENTED BY A PROPERLY EXECUTED PROXY RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE
VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND NOT REVOKED WILL BE VOTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING
AS DIRECTED ON THE PROXY. IF A PROPERLY EXECUTED PROXY IS SUBMITTED AND NO
INSTRUCTIONS ARE GIVEN, THE PROXY WILL BE VOTED FOR THE ELECTION OF THE FIVE
NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR OF THE COMPANY NAMED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT. IT IS NOT
ANTICIPATED THAT ANY MATTER OTHER THAN THOSE SET FORTH IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT
WILL BE PRESENTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING. IF OTHER MATTERS ARE PRESENTED, PROXIES
WILL BE VOTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DISCRETION OF THE PROXY HOLDERS. YOU MAY
REVOKE YOUR PROXY AT ANY TIME BEFORE IT IS VOTED.

     A stockholder of record may revoke a proxy at any time before it has been
exercised by filing a written revocation with the Secretary of the Company at
the address of the Company set forth above; by filing a duly executed proxy
bearing a later date; or by appearing in person and voting by ballot at the
Annual Meeting. Any
<PAGE>   4

stockholder of record as of the Record Date attending the Annual Meeting may
vote in person whether or not a proxy has been previously given, but the
presence (without further action) of a stockholder at the Annual Meeting will
not constitute revocation of a previously given proxy.

     THE COMPANY'S 1999 ANNUAL REPORT, INCLUDING THE COMPANY'S AUDITED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1999, IS BEING MAILED TO
STOCKHOLDERS CONCURRENTLY WITH THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

                                   PROPOSAL 1
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     The Board of Directors of the Company is currently comprised of four
members with each director serving for a term of one year and until their
successors are duly elected and qualified.

     At the Annual Meeting, five directors will be elected to serve until the
2000 Annual Meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.
The Board of Directors has nominated Anthony J. Armini, Stephen N. Bunker,
Robert E. Hoisington, Shunkichi Shimizu and Michael Szycher (the "Nominees").
Each nominee has indicated his willingness to serve as a director of the
Company, and therefore the Board of Directors anticipates that each such Nominee
will serve as a director if elected. However, if any person nominated by the
Board of Directors is unable to accept election, the proxies will be voted for
the election of such other person or persons as the Board of Directors may
recommend.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

     The Board of Directors of the Company held one meeting during the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1999 which was fully attended and acted by unanimous written
consent in lieu of other meetings.

     The Company has standing Audit and Compensation Committees. The members of
the Audit Committee are Messrs. Hoisington (as Chairman), and Shimizu. The Audit
Committee reviews the results of the annual audit of the Company's accounts
conducted by the Company's independent auditors and the recommendations of the
auditors with respect to accounting systems and controls. During the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1999 the Audit Committee held one meeting.

     The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Hoisington (as
Chairman) and Shimizu. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the

Company's 1998 Stock Option Plan. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999,

     The Board of Directors selects nominees for election as directors of the
Company. The Board of Directors will consider a nominee for election to the

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
the Company's officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10%
of a registered class of the Company's equity securities ("ten percent
stockholders") to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Officers, directors and ten percent
stockholders are charged by the SEC regulations to furnish the Company with
copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

     Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4, and 5 and amendments thereto
furnished to the Company during the past fiscal year, and, if applicable,
written representations that Form 5 was not required, the Company believes that
all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and
ten percent stockholders were fulfilled in a timely manner.

     In September 1999, the Compensation Committee approved, and the Company
entered into employment agreements with each of Anthony J. Armini, President,
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board and Stephen N. Bunker, Vice
President and Chief Scientist of the Company. Pursuant to their employment

annual base salary of $125,000 and Dr. Bunker is entitled to an annual base
salary of $100,000, both of which are subject to annual review. Each of them is

exercise options to purchase 321,642 shares of Common Stock, in aggregate. The
interest rate of each loan, which is unsecured, is 6% per annum. The entire
principal amount and accumulated interest on each loan will be due on January 7,

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

     The Company's directors who are employees of the Company do not receive any
compensation for service on the Board of Directors. Directors who are not

$2,500 and are reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with
attendance at Board and committee meetings.

     Under the 1998 Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the "Option
Plan"), each Director who is not an employee of the Company, other than Mr.
Shimizu, automatically receives an annual grant of options to purchase 2,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the
Common Stock on that date for each year of service. Each such option will have a
term of five years and will vest in full on the date of the grant.
