shares were issued in the amounts of 3,183,674 to Mr. Simpson, 979,592 to Mr.

On June 30, 1999 Aztore Holdings, Inc., then the majority shareholder of TRG,
converted $82,820 in debt and assumed an approximate $20,000 liability of TRG in
exchange for 100,000 shares of TRG Series A preferred stock. The $82,820 debt
resulted from advances made to TRG by Aztore.
Effective September 1, 1999, TRG acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of
CIMsoft in exchange for 5,400,008 shares of common stock. These shares were
issued 3,183,674 to Mr. Simpson, 979,592 to Mr. Bruce Williams, 734,694 to Mr.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Directors are not currently compensated for their services on the Board of
Directors.
BOARD MEETINGS
The Board of Directors held four regular meetings in 1999. Each director
attended all four meetings.
BOARD COMMITTEES
The Board has authorized Audit and Compensation Committees, and has appointed
Michael S. Williams as the sole member of the Audit Committee, and Michael S.
Williams and Bruce D. Williams as the members of the Compensation Committee.
These committees held no meetings in 1999. The Board has defined the roles of
these committees as follows:
THE AUDIT COMMITTEE recommends to the Board appointment of our independent
auditors, and reviews audit reports, accounting policies, financial
statements, corporate compliance programs, internal controls, audit fees,
and certain officer expenses.
THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE reviews and recommends to the Board the
compensation and benefits of all executive officers of the Company and
reviews general policy relating to compensation and benefits of employees
of the Company. The Compensation Committee also administers the issuance of
stock options and other awards under the Company's stock plan.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
For the year ended December 31, 1999 the Company engaged King, Weber &
Associates, LLC to audit its financial statements. The Board of Directors and
the Audit Committee have not yet selected independent auditors for the current
year, and, therefore, no recommendation is made to the stockholders at this
time.
