SEC 1344 (6/93
On January 11, 1999 the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the capital
stock of Pageant Technologies Incorporated, a Turks & Caicos Islands
corporation, in exchange for approximately 89.2% of the Company's Common Shares
on a fully diluted basis. On May 7, 1999 the Company filed a registration
statement on Form 20-F and on May 28, 1999 the Securities and Exchange
Commission sent comments on the filing to the Company which, among other things,
asked that the financial statements be revised to include additional
information about Pageant Technologies Incorporated and its wholly-owned US
subsidiary Pageant Technologies (U.S.A.) Inc. The Company has been delayed in
completing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q because it is having difficulty in
obtaining the required information from the necessary sources in the Turks &
Caicos Islands and the United States, but it expects to have such information in
time to file within the grace period proveded for under Rule 12b-25.
