California; the move is expected to be completed by March 1, 2001. The Company

On November 9, 2000, the Company issued a second press release
announcing that it entered into binding letters of intent to restructure a
majority of the $80 million note currently due March 8, 2001, owed to the former

five former shareholders of Soft Plus who hold 74% of the interests in the $80
million note, including director and Chief Executive Officer Mohan Uttarwar, who
holds a 29% interest in the $80 million note. Closing on the restructured note
