ITEM 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On January 10, 2000, the Company completed an agreement wherein it transferred
its customer list, some physical assets, its phone number and name of its
subsidiary DSG, Inc. a California corporation to Automatic Data Capture
Technologies, Inc., a California corporation for the total sum of $350,000.00.
The method of payment was $200,000 down and the balance at the rate of
$10,000.00 every three months commencing June 30, 2000. From the first payment
at the closing, the sum of $50,000.00 was withheld into an escrow to guarantee
the payment of past due California sales taxes, sum of $14,938.10 to transfer to
the buyer the deposits of the former customers of DSG, Inc., the sum of
$36,638.01 to pay off the Companies factor and the sum of $3,435.93 to pay off a
judgment recorded against the Company. This left the sum of $94,987.96 paid to
DSG, Inc. The $50,000.00 being withheld will be released to the Company when the
Company shows the buyer that the obligation to the State Board of Equalization
of California has been paid, or may be applied to the payoff of the obligation.
There is no relation between the buyer and the seller, other than they are in
related business', nor is there any relationship between any officer or director
of either company with the other.
The sale by the Company of the assets of its subsidiary DSG, Inc., will result
in DSG, Inc., no longer being able to continue its existing business of the sale
of Bar coding material or services, but will not impact on its ability to market
its primary project, the sale of its Ticketrac product to the gaming industry.
A copy of the sales agreement and the First Amendment is attached hereto as
Exhibit "A"and "B" respectively.

against or affecting the assets of the Business or the Assets or any of them
except as disclosed in Exhibit 9.H.

sales, use, occupation, property, Social Security, unemployment, Workers'
Compensation, ad valorem, excise or other taxes of Seller and all assessments,
deficiencies, interest, and penalties related to such taxes, whether disputed or
not, due and payable on or before the Closing have been or will be paid and no
agreements are currently in effect with respect to the filing of any tax returns
or the payment or assessment of any tax or deficiency or waiving or extending

of any assessments, deficiencies, interest, or penalties.
10
<PAGE>
I. Exhibit 9.I. is a correct, true and complete list showing all
liability insurance policies (listing the insurer, the amount of coverage, the
expiration date, the type of insurance and the policy number) maintained by or
relating to the Business and the Assets. Seller will keep all the insurance and
each of the policies or renewals in full force and effect until the Closing.
Seller is not in default with respect to any material provision contained in the
insurance policies nor has it failed to give notice or pay any premium under the
policies in timely fashion nor has it been denied insurance coverage or been
granted coverage or a claim accepted only with a reservation of rights in whole
or in part. There is no event for which a claim could be made and which Seller
has not filed. The insurance listed in Exhibit 9.I. fully and adequately covers
the Seller and the Assets against any and all liability for claims which may
arise from events prior to the Closing relating to the Business.
J. All items included in the Purchased Inventory are the property of
Seller. No items included in the Purchased Inventory will be pledged as
collateral or held by Seller on consignment from others as of the Closing. All
of the Purchased Inventory is saleable in the ordinary course of the Business.
All of the Purchased Inventory is "fresh" and free of defects.
K. Exhibit 9.K. is a schedule setting forth the name, current annual
salaries, date and amount of last increase compensation or adjustment, date of
last review, position, duties, place of employment, date of hire of each
employee set forth on such Exhibit and any bonus, and other forms of
compensation, remuneration, commission and benefits of any nature paid or
payable or promised or accrued or earned to or for the benefit of or by that
employee for the immediately preceding fiscal year and for the current fiscal
year of the Business.
L. Seller's existing customer purchase orders and vender purchase
orders were obtained in the ordinary course of business. Seller and CSI
reasonably anticipate that Seller will derive a profit on all of these customer
purchase orders. At the time of execution of this Agreement, Seller will attach
hereto as Exhibit 9.L. a true, correct and complete list of Seller's customers
for the past five (5) years of operation of the Business.
11
<PAGE>
M. The Seller has not received notice of any kind from any
Government Authority alleging that the Seller has failed to comply with any
applicable law, ordinance, regulation, statute, rule or restriction relative to
the use, handling, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials or as to
environmental matters pertaining to or affecting the Premises (whether on, under
or about) or the Business.
N. The Deposits reflected on Exhibit 2.A.i. are and will be bona
fide deposits from the customers indicated, and arose out of the ordinary course
of Seller's business and will be in individual amounts sufficient to cover the
products to be delivered and/or services to be performed and are sufficient in
amount to permit Buyer to derive a profit in connection with the particular
customer purchase order related to the particular Deposit.
O. Neither Seller nor CSI has any knowledge of or reason to know of
any current or anticipated termination, cancellation, limitation, modification
or change in the business relationship of Seller for any reason with any
customer or group of affiliated customers whose purchases individually or in the
aggregate constituted more than five percent (5%) of any Seller's invoiced sales
during 1998 or 1999.
P. To the best knowledge of Seller and CSI, all the representations
and warranties under this Agreement and all Exhibits and data provided by Seller
