PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE MORE DETAILED
INFORMATION APPEARING ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS AND INCORPORATED HEREIN BY
REFERENCE. INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE INFORMATION SET FORTH HEREIN
UNDER "RISK FACTORS."
The Company provides knowledge-based professional services and high-
quality technology-based product solutions to government and commercial
customers through its core professional services organization ("PSO") business.
Beginning in 1993, the Company expanded beyond PSO into telecommunications,
initially by developing the OSU(R) Network Interface. In 1995, the Company
launched a second telecommunications initiative when it began development of its
NetworkVUE(TM) software. See "THE COMPANY -- Professional Services
Organization," "-- Other Businesses."
From the inception of this expansion through early 1997, the Company
invested the free cash flow from PSO and incurred substantial debt in order to
fund the development of its telecommunications business units, but did not
realize the revenues that it had anticipated from these business units. By
January 1997, the Company concluded that it should seek to raise additional
capital in order, among other things, to continue its operations, and thus
entered into financing agreements with the Selling Stockholder and another
investor. Under the agreement with the Selling Stockholder, the Company sold a
$4 million aggregate principal amount 5% debenture due January 30, 2000
convertible at the Selling Stockholder's option under certain circumstances into
shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price specified in the
agreement. The Company also entered into an agreement with the other investor
pursuant to which the investor, under certain circumstances and subject to
certain conditions specified in the agreement, may be required to purchase from
the Company up to $18 million of the Company's Common Stock over a period of 42
months. The Company issued to the Selling Stockholder and the other investor
warrants to purchase up to 520,000 total shares of the Company's Common Stock at
specified prices. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity Financing."
This Prospectus offers for resale by the Selling Stockholder up to
2,120,000 shares of Common Stock that the Company may sell to the Selling
Stockholder pursuant to the terms of the agreement between the Company and the
Selling Stockholder.
The Company expects to use the proceeds, if any, that it receives under
its agreement with the Selling Stockholder to reduce its outstanding
indebtedness under a revolving line of credit that provides working capital.
Depending upon the amount and terms of the Company's indebtedness at the time it
receives proceeds, if any, the Company also might use the proceeds to repay
other indebtedness and for general corporate purposes. See "USE OF
PROCEEDS."
The Company has closed most of its telecommunications business units and
is focusing primarily on PSO, which in the last four years has generated in
excess of 90% of the Company's revenue and during that period has been
consistently profitable with positive cash flows. The Company also expects to
pursue strategies to restructure its bank debt, which was $22.5 million at
December 31, 1996. See "RECENT DEVELOPMENTS."
The risks of investing in the shares of Common Stock offered by this
Prospectus are described more fully under the caption "RISK FACTORS," which
discusses the Company's ability to refocus on its core PSO business unit and
sell or close its other business units; the Company's high debt level; the
volatility of the price of the Company's Common Stock and the shares of the
Company's Common Stock eligible for future sale; the Company's dependence on
government contracts; the Company's dependence on significant contracts; the
Company's contract profit exposure; the potential for the Company's suspension
and debarment as a government contractor; the impact of technological change on
the Company and the Company's dependence on proprietary information; the
competitiveness of the markets that the Company services; the Company's
dependence on its professional staff; the Company's ability to meet the New York
Stock Exchange's continued listing requirements; and the potential issuance of
preferred stock by the Company.

<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information in this Prospectus, the following
factors should be considered carefully by prospective investors in evaluating an
investment in the shares of Common Stock offered in this Prospectus.
EFFECTS OF RESTRUCTURING
The Company has refocused on its core PSO business unit; its OSU(R),
NetworkVUE(TM) and CIS business units have ceased operations, and its GRC
Instruments(TM) and Advanced Security Technologies/Vindicator(R) business units
are continuing their operations pending their sale or closure. See "RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS." There can be no assurance that the sale or closure of any of
these business units will be completed in a timely or satisfactory manner or
that the proceeds from the sales will meet the Company's financial goals. Delays
or other adverse developments in selling or closing these business units could
cause further losses to the Company and result in additional debt and reduced
liquidity. While the Company hopes to achieve greater profitability as a result
of these changes, there can be no assurance that this strategy will succeed.
Although PSO has generated more than 90% of the Company's revenues in
recent years, the financial and other effects of the anticipated sale or closure
of the Company's other business units could disrupt the Company's operations
further and, as noted, cause an increase in indebtedness and further reductions
in liquidity, thereby undermining the Company's goal of returning to
profitability and generating the cash flow necessary to service its debt.
HIGH DEBT LEVEL
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had outstanding $31.2 million of
debt, consisting of a $5 million term loan (the "Term Loan"), $17.5 million
drawn from a $22 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Credit"), a
$6.8 million equipment lease financing (the "Equipment Lease") and a $1.9
million note related to the 1996 acquisition of assets from Quintessential
Solutions, Inc. (the "Note"). On January 30, 1997, the Company also issued the
Debenture. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity Financing." The Company may
experience further increases in debt
-5-
<PAGE>
levels during the fiscal year ending on June 30, 1997 in connection with the
sale or closure of its OSU(R), NetworkVUE(TM) and APD business units. See "THE
COMPANY -- Other Businesses."
The Company's level of indebtedness was the principal reason for the
anticipated sale or closure of its unprofitable business units. The current
level and terms of indebtedness also: (i) will require the Company to dedicate
a significant portion of its available net earnings from operations to payment
of interest and principal on the indebtedness; (ii) could limit the Company's
flexibility in reacting to business developments and changes in industry and
economic conditions generally; (iii) could limit the Company's ability to obtain
additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures,
research and development, acquisitions and general corporate purposes; and (iv)
could place the Company at a competitive disadvantage inasmuch as many of its
competitors are not comparably indebted.
The Company is exploring strategies for refinancing the Term Loan, which
will come due on September 1, 1998 unless extended, and the Revolving Credit,
which is repayable on January 15, 1999 unless extended. In addition, the
Equipment Lease is repayable in monthly installments until June 2001. The
Company expects to seek to negotiate an extension to, and other new terms for,
the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit. The Company is also exploring
additional and substitute financing sources, including receivables financing and
the private sale of additional debt or equity. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to negotiate any extensions or additional or substitute
financing or that terms of any such financing will be favorable to the Company.
The Company also anticipates reducing its indebtedness with cash flow
from its PSO business unit. Any growth in PSO, however, could actually reduce
cash flow in the short term because of the time lag between when PSO renders
services and when PSO's principal customer, DoD, pays for those services.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance of continued growth in PSO's business,
which is subject to additional risks. See "-- Dependence on Significant
Customer," "-- Dependence on Significant Contracts," "-- Contract Profit
Exposure," "--Audits," "-- Potential Suspension and Debarment," "-- Rapid
Technological Change," "-- Competition" and "-- Dependence on Professional Staff
and Key Personnel."
The Company also expects to reduce its indebtedness by raising
additional capital through the Structured Equity Line. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt
and Equity Financing." Conditions to the sale of Common Stock under the
Structured Equity Line include (i) effectiveness of a registration statement
under the
-6-
<PAGE>
Securities Act for the resale by Cripple Creek of the shares of Common Stock to
be sold to Cripple Creek, (ii) Cripple Creek and its affiliates not beneficially
owning more than 4.9% of the Company's Common Stock, (iii) listing of the
Company's Common Stock on the NYSE or AMEX or trading of the Company's Common
Stock on the Nasdaq NMS and (iv) the price of the Common Stock being at least
$4.00 per share, the value of open market trading of the Common Stock being at
least $500,000 per day, and the amount of Common Stock sold to Cripple Creek in
any three month period not exceeding 8% of the average daily value of open
market trading of the Common Stock on its principal market multiplied by the
number of trading days in that period. Based on recent prices and trading volume
for the Common Stock, there is a substantial risk that the Company may not be
able to sell as much as $3 million in Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder in
each three month period, and there is a substantial risk that in at least some
quarters the Company may not be able to sell any Common Stock at all.
At December 31, 1996, the Company was in default on the loan agreement
that governs the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit (the "Loan Agreement"), but
secured an amendment on February 7, 1997 that brought the Company back into
compliance as of December 31, 1996, and amended the financial covenants
prospectively to levels that the Company believes, under its current plans and
projections for continuing operations, will allow the Company to remain in
compliance over the next 12 months. There can be no assurance, however, that
the Company will be able to remain in compliance with the Loan Agreement, or
that, in the event of another default, additional amendments to the Loan
Agreement would be able to be made. If the Company is again in default under
the Loan Agreement and cannot secure a waiver or amendment thereto, then the
amounts outstanding under the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit (together with
the cross-default under the Equipment Lease) would become immediately due and
payable. It is unlikely that the Company would be able to make or finance such
a payment.
STOCK PRICE VOLATILITY; SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
The price of the Company's Common Stock has been volatile. For the
twelve months ended April 25, 1997, the price of the Common Stock ranged from $3
3/4 to $44 5/8, and closed at $4 3/4. The price of the Common Stock could be
subject to additional significant fluctuations in response to, among other
things, variations in the Company's operating results, introduction of new
services or technologies by the Company or its competitors, changes in other
conditions or trends in the Company's industries, changes in security analysts'
estimates of the Company's or its competitors' or industries' future
performance, general market conditions and the matters
-7-
<PAGE>
described herein under "RISK FACTORS." General market price declines or market
volatility in the future, or future declines or volatility in the prices of
stock for companies in the Company's industries, also could affect the price of
the Common Stock.
The Company's agreements with the Selling Stockholder and Cripple Creek
may also have an effect on the price of the Company's Common Stock. Under the
Company's agreements with the Selling Stockholder, the Company is required to
convert the $4,000,000 Debenture (plus any interest not paid in cash) into
Common Stock at a price equal to the lesser of (i) $11 per share or (ii) 94% of
the lowest reported sale price during the three trading days immediately
preceding the date of conversion. The Company also has issued a warrant to the
Selling Stockholder to purchase 320,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of
$8.47 per share. Under the Company's agreements with Cripple Creek, the Company
may issue up to $18,000,000 of Common Stock to Cripple Creek at a price that is
equal to 94% of the lowest reported sale price during the three days immediately
preceding the notice of purchase to Cripple Creek. The Company also has issued a
warrant to Cripple Creek to purchase 125,000 shares of Common Stock at $8.47 per
share and may issue a warrant to Cripple Creek to purchase 75,000 shares at 140%
of a future market price. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity Financing." The
resale by the Selling Stockholder and Cripple Creek of the Company's Common
Stock that they acquire could depress the market price of the Company's Common
Stock.
Moreover, the terms of the Structured Equity Line provide that the
Company has the right to require Cripple Creek to purchase up to $3 million of
the Common Stock in any of the three month periods during its term, subject to
certain limitations. Although the terms of the Structured Equity Line provide
that Cripple Creek and its affiliates are not required to purchase Common Stock
in an amount such that they would beneficially own more than 4.9% of the Common
Stock outstanding, Cripple Creek also has agreed to use its best efforts to
continue to purchase Common Stock notwithstanding this limitation. Accordingly,
Cripple Creek may be required to purchase Common Stock from the Company in a
manner that would require it, in order to stay under the 4.9% beneficial
ownership limitation and comply with its obligations to the Company, to sell
shares without regard to any adverse effects on price and other market factors
associated with the Common Stock. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity
Financing" and "SELLING STOCKHOLDER."
DEPENDENCE ON GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS
PSO, which is expected to generate substantially all of the Company's
revenues in the foreseeable future, derives
-8-
<PAGE>
substantially all of its business from service contracts and subcontracts with
DoD and its instrumentalities. Typically, such contracts have an initial term of
one year combined with two, three or four one-year renewal periods exercisable
at the government's discretion. DoD and its instrumentalities are not obligated
to exercise the options to renew. At the time of completion, a contract in its
entirety may be "recompeted" against all interested third-party providers, and
awards are subject to protest by disappointed bidders. Federal law permits DoD
to terminate a contract at any time if such termination is deemed to be in DoD's
best interest. DoD's failure to renew, or termination of any significant portion
of, the Company's contracts could have an adverse effect on the Company.
Continuation and renewal of existing contracts with the DoD, and
acquisition of additional contracts from DoD, is contingent upon, among other
things, the availability of funding for DoD. The current world political
situation and domestic political pressure to reduce the federal budget deficit
have reduced, and may continue to reduce, DoD's budget, which could have an
adverse effect on the Company's earnings.
The adoption of new or modified procurement regulations also could have
an adverse effect on the Company and its cost of competing for and performing
government contracts.
DEPENDENCE ON SIGNIFICANT CONTRACTS
Although PSO contracts at fiscal year-end 1996, 1995 and 1994 have
numbered 149, 175 and 189, respectively, the loss of one or more may have a
substantial adverse impact on PSO's revenues and profitability if the particular
contract is large in relation to the rest. There also can be no assurance that
the Company will win any follow-on contracts.
CONTRACT PROFIT EXPOSURE
The Company provides services to the government through three types of
contracts: fixed-price, time-and-materials and cost-reimbursement. The Company
assumes financial risk on fixed-price contracts (approximately 5.3% of the
Company's government contract revenues in fiscal year 1996) and time-and-
material contracts (approximately 32.2% of the Company's government contract
revenues in fiscal year 1996) because the Company assumes the risk of performing
those contracts at the stipulated prices or negotiated hourly rates. The
failure to estimate ultimate costs accurately or to control costs during
performance of the work could result in losses or smaller than anticipated
profits. The balance of the Company's government contract revenue in fiscal
year 1996 (approximately 62.5%) was derived from cost-reimbursement contracts.
To the extent that the actual
-9-
<PAGE>
costs incurred in performing a cost-reimbursement contract are within the
contract ceiling and allowable under the terms of the contract and applicable
regulations, the Company is entitled to reimbursement of its costs plus a
stipulated profit. However, if the Company's costs exceed the ceiling or are not
allowable under the terms of the contract or applicable regulations, any excess
would be subject to adjustment and repayment upon audit by the government.
AUDITS
Government contract payments received by the Company for allowable
direct and indirect costs are subject to adjustment and repayment after audit if
the payments exceed allowable costs as defined in such government contracts.
Audits have been completed on all of the Company's incurred contract costs
through the end of fiscal year 1986 and on certain incurred contract costs
through the end of fiscal years 1987, 1990 and 1991.
POTENTIAL SUSPENSION AND DEBARMENT
The Company is subject to federal regulations under which its right to
receive future awards of new government contracts, or extensions of existing
government contracts, may be unilaterally suspended or barred should the Company
be convicted of a crime or be indicted based on allegations of violation of
certain specific federal statutes or other activities. Suspensions, even if
temporary, can result in the loss of valuable contract awards for which the
Company otherwise would be eligible. The initiation of suspension or debarment
hearings against the Company could have an adverse effect on the Company.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
The Company's business is dependent on its technical and organizational
knowledge, practices and procedures, and its future success is based, in part,
on its ability to keep up to date with new technological breakthroughs and
incorporate such changes in its products and services. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in developing and marketing in a
timely manner new products and services that respond to technological advances
by others, or that the Company's products and services will adequately and
competitively address the needs of the changing marketplace.
COMPETITION
The markets that the Company services are highly competitive and likely
to become more so with the expected continuing decline of government defense
expenditures. Some of the Company's competitors are large, diversified firms
with
-10-
<PAGE>
substantially greater financial resources, lower debt levels and larger
technical staffs than the Company has available to it. Government agencies also
compete with the Company because they can utilize their internal resources to
perform certain types of services that the Company might otherwise perform.
DEPENDENCE ON PROFESSIONAL STAFF
To service its PSO contracts, the Company must recruit and retain key
technical personnel, such as operations research and software engineers,
computer programmers, and other skilled scientists and engineers. Competition
for such personnel is intense, and the Company often must comply with provisions
in government contracts that require employment of persons with specified levels
of education, work experience and security clearances. At December 31, 1996,
the Company had openings for approximately 219 PSO-related positions. This
contrasts with the Company's openings at June 30, 1996 for 209 PSO-related
positions. An inability to fill a substantial portion of these current openings
could have an adverse impact on the Company's revenue growth and profitability.

The Company's Common Stock is listed and traded primarily on the NYSE.
As of December 31, 1996, the Company did not comply with the net tangible asset
continued listing criterion set forth in Section 802.00 of the NYSE Listed
Company Manual ("NYSE Manual"). The NYSE Manual states in Section 801.00 that
when a company falls below any criterion, the NYSE will review the
appropriateness of continued listing and might not permit continued listing
unless a company is proposing to make changes that would bring it in line with
original listing standards. At the present time, the Company would not meet
certain original listing standards, including "aggregate market value of
publicly-held shares" and "demonstrated earning power." Listing of the Common
Stock on the NYSE or the AMEX or trading of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq NMS
is a condition to the Company selling shares to Cripple Creek under the
Structured Equity Line. See "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity Financing." The
Company has had no discussions with the NYSE concerning its listing or the
status of its application to list the shares offered hereby. There can be no
assurance that the Common Stock will not be delisted on the NYSE or, if the
Common Stock is delisted, that the Company will be able to list the Common Stock
on the AMEX or have it traded on the Common Stock on the Nasdaq NMS. If the
Company's Common Stock is not listed on the NYSE or AMEX and not traded on the
Nasdaq NMS, the market price and trading volume of the Common Stock could be
adversely affected.

POTENTIAL ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK
The Company's Board of Directors has the authority, without any further
vote by the Company's stockholders, to issue up to 300,000 shares of Preferred
Stock in one or more series and to determine the designations, powers,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights thereof,
including without limitation, the dividend rate (and whether dividends are
cumulative), conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption,
redemption price and liquidation preference. Although the Company has no
current plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock, the rights of the holders
of Common Stock would be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the
rights of the holders of any Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future.
Issuance of Preferred Stock could have the effect of delaying, deterring or
preventing a change in control of the Company, including the imposition of
various procedural and other requirements that could make it more difficult for
holders of Common Stock to effect certain corporate actions, including the
ability to replace incumbent directors and to accomplish transactions opposed by
the incumbent Board of Directors.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Company's OSU(R), NetworkVUE(TM) and CIS business units have ceased
operations. The Company is attempting to sell the intellectual property of
OSU(R), NetworkVUE(TM) and CIS, but there can be no assurance that the Company
will succeed in doing so. The Company is in the process of addressing the
warranty, servicing and other contractual obligations of OSU(R), NetworkVUE(TM)
and CIS resulting from previous sales of their respective products. The Company
is also attempting to preserve the value of the intellectual property of OSU(R),
NetworkVUE(TM) and CIS pending disposition. For a description of these and the
Company's other businesses discussed in this section, see "THE COMPANY -- Other
Businesses."
The Company's GRC Instruments(TM) and Advanced Security
Technologies/Vindicator(R) business units are continuing their operations
pending their sale. The Company is in negotiation with potential purchasers, but
there can be no assurance that any agreements will be reached or that any sales
would be at favorable prices or without the Company incurring additional losses.
For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company anticipates reporting
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for its OSU(R),
NetworkVUE(TM), and APD businesses on a discontinued operations basis.
On March 10, 1997, the Company announced that its board of directors has
unanimously elected Joseph R. Wright, Jr., as its new chairman. Mr. Wright had
been a member of the Company's board since 1994. Mr. Wright is also Chairman
and CEO of AVIC Group International, Inc., a public company establishing joint
ventures to develop, finance, build and maintain telecommunications networks in
the People's Republic of China. From 1981 to 1982, Mr. Wright served as deputy
secretary of the Department of Commerce, then spent the next six years as deputy
director of the White House Office of Management and Budget ("OMB"). He was a
member of the President's Cabinet as director of OMB from 1988 to 1989, prior to
becoming vice chairman and executive vice president of W.R. Grace & Co.,
positions he held from 1989 until 1994.

THE COMPANY
The Company provides knowledge-based professional services and high-
quality technology-based product solutions to government and commercial
customers through its core professional services organization ("PSO") business.
Beginning in 1993, the Company expanded beyond PSO into telecommunications,
initially by developing the OSU(R) Network Interface. In 1995, the Company
launched a second telecommunications initiative when it began development of its
NetworkVUE(TM) software. From the inception of this expansion through early
1997, the Company invested the free cash flow from PSO and incurred substantial
debt in order to fund the development and marketing of these products. During
this time, PSO generated in excess of 90% of the Company's revenue and was
consistently profitable with positive cash flows. As discussed under "RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS," the Company has decided to sell or close most of the
telecommunications business units and certain other business units and focus
primarily on PSO. The Company also expects to pursue strategies to restructure
its bank debt, which was $22.5 million at December 31, 1996.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ORGANIZATION
The Company's principal business is PSO, which focuses on providing
information technology consulting services, primarily to the United States
Department of Defense ("DoD") and its instrumentalities. Areas of expertise
include: software and system engineering; business decision support systems;
analytical modeling and simulation; database design and implementation; legacy
migration engineering; network design and integration; systems integration;
post-deployment software support; operation support and management; virtual
manufacturing consulting; communication engineering; and testing and evaluation.
These services are applied to such areas as: financial and personnel
management; automated acquisition systems; transportation planning and analysis;
manufacturing analysis; logistics planning; security clearance processing;
WAN/LAN analysis; training systems; and information warfare systems relying on
radar, optics, communication networks, electronics, navigation and guidance,
control, space and surveillance systems. PSO had revenues of $27.8 million for
the quarter ended December 31, 1996 and $117.7 million for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1996.
OTHER BUSINESSES
Telecommunications Division. The Company's Telecommunications Division
consisted of three business units: OSU(R), NetworkVUE(TM) and the Application
Software Group ("ASG"). As described under "RECENT DEVELOPMENTS," the
Company has shut down its OSU(R) and NetworkVUE(TM) business units, which
constituted the bulk of the Telecommunications Division, but the Company remains
fully committed to ASG. OSU(R) is a section terminating regenerator that
provides demarcation between any two entities with a synchronous optical network
transmission protocol fiber network. NetworkVUE(TM) is a suite of software
modules that automates the analysis, design and planning of telecommunications
networks based on optimizing cost, performance and reliability. ASG develops
custom software for the telecommunications industry. OSU(R) had revenues of
$71,000 and $1.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 and the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1996, respectively, and for the same periods NetworkVUE(TM)
had revenues of $172,000 and $460,000 and ASG had revenues of $605,000 and
$0.
Advanced Products Division. As described under "RECENT DEVELOPMENTS,"
the Company is pursuing the sale or closure of the three business units that
constitute its Advanced Products Division ("APD"): GRC Instruments(TM),
Commercial Information Solutions (CIS) and Advanced Security Technologies/
Vindicator(R). GRC Instruments(TM) designs, manufactures, markets and
sells electronically
- 14 -
<PAGE>
instrumented impact testing equipment for dynamic materials testing under the
Dynatup(R) label. Commercial Information Solutions (CIS) develops and markets
the FLOW GEMINI(TM) line of environmental, health and occupational safety
software products, which facilitates compliance with federal and state
recordkeeping. Vindicator(R) provides physical security and access control
systems for critical resource protection requirements. GRC Instruments(TM) had
revenues of $894,000 and $3.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1996
and the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, respectively; Commercial Information
Solutions had revenues of $189,000 and $1.5 million, and Vindicator(R) had
revenues of $451,000 and $422,000 for the same periods. The Company will retain
and move to PSO a small part of its Advanced Security Technologies business, the
Advanced Technology Services Group, which had revenues of $137,000 and $1.1
million for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 and the fiscal year ended June
30, 1996, respectively.
DEBT AND EQUITY FINANCING
The Company entered into financing agreements with the Selling
Stockholder and another investor in January 1997 in order to raise additional
capital to continue its operations. The Company sought to raise additional
capital because, since 1993, the Company had invested the free cash flow from
PSO and incurred substantial debt to finance the development of products for its
telecommunications business units but had not realized the revenues that it had
anticipated from these business units. Before entering into the financing
agreements, the Company sought the advice of its financial advisor, Smith Barney
Inc. ("Smith Barney"), which the Company had engaged to advise the Company with
respect to a full range of financial and strategic options. In particular,
Smith Barney, on the Company's behalf, sought strategic partnerships,
distributorship, licensing agreements and other transactions. Among the goals
of any such transaction was to find a corporate partner that could provide
additional capital and financial resources to assist the Company in continuing
to develop its telecommunications business units. By January 1997, these
efforts had not been successful, and the Company believed that obtaining near-
term commitments for additional capital was in its best interest. The Company
also considered, as alternatives to the financing agreements, other debt and
equity financings, but concluded that such financings were not likely to be
available within an acceptable time frame and/or on acceptable terms. Thus, the
financing agreements provided what the Company believed were terms for
additional capital in the needed time frame that were in the best interest of
the Company.
Convertible Debenture. The Company and the Selling Stockholder entered
into a Convertible Securities Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 21,
1997 (the "Subscription Agreement"), pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder
agreed to purchase a $4 million aggregate principal amount 5% Convertible
Debenture due January 30, 2000 (the "Debenture"). Interest on the Debenture is
payable quarterly in cash or, at the Company's option, the amount due may be
added to the outstanding principal due under the Debenture. Sixty days after
January 30, 1997, the Debenture becomes convertible, at the Selling
Stockholder's option at any time and from time to time, into the Company's
Common Stock at the lesser of (i) $11 per share, subject to adjustment under
certain circumstances, or (ii) 94% of the lowest reported sale price during the
three trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. If the Company
is in default under the terms of the Debenture, the Selling Stockholder may sell
the Debenture to the Company at 120% of the amount of the outstanding principal
due under the Debenture plus accrued but unpaid interest.
As consideration for entering into the Subscription Agreement, the
Company has issued to the Selling Stockholder a seven year warrant, which,
subject to certain exceptions, is not exercisable until July 30, 1998, to
purchase 320,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $8.47 per
share (the "Warrant"). If the Company (i) sells all or substantially all of its
assets, (ii) enters into a merger, consolidation, reorganization or other
similar transaction that results in the shareholders of the Company owning in
the aggregate less than 50% of the common
- 15 -
<PAGE>
equity or having less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity, or
(iii) fixes a record date for the declaration of a material special distribution
or dividend, then the Selling Stockholder may sell the Debenture to the Company
at 115% of the outstanding principal due under the Debenture plus accrued but
unpaid interest, and the Warrant becomes immediately exercisable at a price
equal to the lesser of (i) $8.47 per share or (ii) 80% of the "Transaction
Value" per share. "Transaction Value" is defined in the Warrant to mean, in the
case of a merger, acquisition, sale of Common Stock, sale of assets or similar
transaction, the fair market value of the consideration to be received per share
of Common Stock, as evidenced by the average of the closing sale price for the
Common Stock during the 10 trading days following the announcement of such
definitive agreement, and in the case of a material special dividend or
distribution, the fair market value of the dividend or distribution.
Under a related Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of January 30,
1997, the Company agreed to file the registration statement of which this
Prospectus is a part under the Securities Act for the resale by the Selling
Stockholder of the shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of all or any part of the Debenture and the exercise of all or any
part of the Warrant.
Structured Equity Line. The Company also has entered into a Structured
Equity Line Flexible Financing Agreement (the "Structured Equity Line"), dated
as of January 21, 1997, with Cripple Creek Securities, LLC ("Cripple Creek"), a
Delaware limited liability company, and a related Registration Rights Agreement,
dated as of January 30, 1997 (the "Equity Line Registration Rights Agreement"),
whereby the Company agreed to file under the Securities Act a registration
statement for the resale by Cripple Creek of shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to
the terms of the Structured Equity Line, Cripple Creek is required to purchase
shares of Common Stock over a period of 42 months (subject to adjustment upon
the occurrence of certain events) from the date of effectiveness under the
Securities Act of the registration statement, for an aggregate purchase price of
up to $18 million. The Company may terminate the Structured Equity Line on the
first anniversary of the date of effectiveness of the registration statement,
provided that Cripple Creek has, as of or on such first anniversary purchased
shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of at least $5 million.
If the Company issues less than $5 million of its Common Stock under the
Structured Equity Line, it must pay Cripple Creek up to $300,000. Under the
terms of the Structured Equity Line, during the first six months of the
effectiveness of the registration statement, Cripple Creek may, but is not
required to, purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock for an aggregate
purchase price of up to $3 million. During each three month period following
that initial six month period, the Company, subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions, can require Cripple Creek to purchase shares of Common Stock
for an aggregate purchase price of at least $1.5 million and up to $3 million.
At the beginning of each three-month period, the Company shall notify Cripple
Creek of the aggregate purchase price of shares of Common Stock required to be
purchased by Cripple Creek during such three-month period. Cripple Creek will
select and notify the Company of the date on which the purchase of shares of
Common Stock from the Company shall close within each such three-month period
following notification by the Company, and of the purchase of additional shares
of Common Stock during such period if the aggregate purchase price of the shares
of Common Stock to be acquired pursuant to the Company's notification is less
than $3 million. The purchase price per share to be paid by Cripple Creek for
shares of Common Stock acquired under the Structured Equity Line is equal to 94%
of the lowest reported sale price during the three trading days immediately
preceding the notice of purchase by Cripple Creek.
- 16 -
<PAGE>
Cripple Creek's obligation to purchase shares of Common Stock under the
Structured Equity Line is subject to various conditions, including, without
limitation: (i) effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities
Act for resale of the underlying shares by Cripple Creek; (ii) the price of the
Common Stock being at least $4.00 per share, (iii) the reported trading volume
of the Common Stock on its principal market multiplied by the weighted average
trading price of the Common Stock (by trading volume) (the "value of open market
trading") during a period of 20 trading days prior to the commencement of each
three-month period of at least $500,000 per day during any three month period in
which the Company requires the Selling Stockholder to purchase shares of Common
Stock for an aggregate purchase price in excess of $1.5 million; (iv) the lesser
of the amount of Common Stock sold by the Company to Cripple Creek in any three
month period not exceeding 8% of the average daily value of open market trading
of the Common Stock on its principal market multiplied by the number of trading
days in that period and the immediately preceding three month period; (v)
listing of the Company's Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") or
American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") or trading of the Company's Common Stock on the
Nasdaq National Market System ("Nasdaq NMS"); and (vi) the percentage of the
Company's Common Stock beneficially owned by Cripple Creek and its affiliates
not being more than 4.9% of the outstanding Common Stock on each closing date
for the purchase of shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the
Structured Equity Line.
As consideration for entering into the Structured Equity Line, Cripple
Creek received a seven year warrant to purchase 125,000 shares of the Company's
Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $8.47 per share (the "Equity Line
Warrant"). The Equity Line Warrant is not exercisable for 18 months from the
date of issuance, but will become immediately exercisable if the Company
declares a material dividend or distribution (other than shares of Common
Stock), sells substantially all of its assets or enters into a merger,
consolidation or other similar transaction, or the Structured Equity Line is
terminated in accordance with its terms, and in such event the exercise price
will be the lesser of (i) $8.47 or (ii) 80% of the Transaction Value per share
("Transaction Value" has the meaning set forth above).
If the Company elects to issue Common Stock under the Structured Equity
Line for an aggregate purchase price of more than $5 million or to extend the
term thereof beyond one year, the Company will issue an additional seven year
warrant for the purchase of 75,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Additional Equity Line Warrant") at an exercise price equal to 140% of the
closing sale price of the Common Stock at the time of the issuance of the
Additional Equity Line Warrant. The Additional Equity Line Warrant will be
exercisable at the same time as the Equity Line Warrant, or upon issuance, if
the Equity Line Warrant is exercised prior to the issuance of such Additional
Equity Line Warrant, contain provisions similar to those in the Equity Line
Warrant.
The Company could receive, before expenses, up to $18,000,000 under the
Structured Equity Line and up to $1,058,750 under the Warrant. Under the
Additional Warrant, the amount of gross proceeds received will depend on the
exercise price of the Additional Warrant, which is specified in the Structured
Equity Line as 140% of the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the date of
issuance of the Additional Warrant. Thus, if, for example, the closing sale
price on the date of issuance were $10, the gross proceeds from the Additional
Warrant, assuming full exercise, would be $1,050,000 (i.e. 140% x $10 x 75,000
shares). There can be no assurance that the Company will receive any proceeds
under the Structured Equity Line, the Warrant and the Additional Warrant.
Under the Structured Equity Line and the related Equity Line
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to file under the Securities
Act a registration statement for the resale by Cripple Creek of the shares of
the Company's Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Structured Equity Line,
the Equity Line Warrant and the Additional Equity Line Warrant. That
registration statement is separate from the registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part.

OTHER INFORMATION
The Company was organized in California in 1961 and has been a Delaware
corporation since 1974. The Company's principal executive offices are located at
1900 Gallows Road, Vienna, Virginia 22182, and its telephone number is (703)
506-5000. For further information about the business and operations of the
Company, reference is made to the Company's reports incorporated herein by

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 30,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, $.10 par value per share, and 300,000 shares of undesignated
Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value per share. As of March 31, 1997, 9,342,557
shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding. There were no shares of
Preferred Stock designated or issued.
Common Stock. The holders of the Common Stock have one vote per share
and are entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors of the
Company. The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive, subject to
the preferential rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock (as hereinafter
described), out of the assets legally available therefor, dividends at such time
and in such amounts as the Board of Directors may determine. Subject to the
preferential rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock, upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets legally available for
distribution to stockholders of the Company shall be distributed ratably among
the holders of the Common Stock.
Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors is empowered to issue up to
300,000 shares of preferred stock from time to time
- 18 -
<PAGE>
in one or more series, fixing in each case, among other things: (i) the rate of
dividends and whether they shall be cumulative, (ii) voting rights, if any,
(iii) redemption price, (iv) the amount payable in the even of involuntary or
voluntary liquidation and (v) the terms and conditions on which shares may be
converted if the shares of that series are to be issued with the privilege of
conversion.
Shareholder Rights Plan. The Company has a Shareholder Rights Plan under
which a dividend of one Common Stock Purchase Right (a "Right") is automatically
issued for each share of Common Stock. The Rights are not exercisable or
transferable apart from the Common Stock until ten business days after a person
has acquired beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the Common Stock, or
commences, or announces an intention to commence, a tender offer for 25% or more
of the Common Stock. Separate certificates for the Rights will be mailed to
holders of the Common Stock as of such date, and each Right will entitle the
holder thereof to buy one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $100.
However, if any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 25% or more of
the Common Stock (other than pursuant to an offer for all shares that the
independent Directors of the Company determine is fair to, and otherwise in the
best interest of, the Company and its shareholders), each Right not owned by
such person or group will entitle the holder to purchase, at the exercise price
of the Rights, that number of shares of Common Stock (or other consideration)
that would have a market value of two times the exercise price of the Rights.
Similarly, in the event that the Company is a party to a merger or other
business combination transaction, each Right will entitle the holder to
purchase, at the exercise price of the Rights, that number of shares of common
stock of the acquiring company that would have a market value of two times the
exercise price of the Rights. The Rights are redeemable at $.05 per Right prior
to the tenth business day following the public announcement that a person has
acquired beneficial ownership of 25% of the Common Stock. Upon redemption, the
right to exercise the Rights will terminate. The Rights expire on December 31,
2005.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of the
shares of Common Stock offered by this Prospectus. The Company received gross
proceeds of $4 million from the sale of the Debenture and could receive gross
proceeds of up to $2,710,400 from the exercise of the Warrant if the Warrant is
exercised in full. No assurance can be given that the Warrant will be exercised,
and
- 19 -
<PAGE>
the Warrant is generally not exercisable until July 30, 1998.
The $4 million that the Company received from the sale of the Debenture
was used to reduce the amount of outstanding indebtedness under the Revolving
Credit. The Company expects that any net proceeds from the exercise of the
Warrant will be used to further reduce the amount of outstanding indebtedness
under the Revolving Credit, which provides working capital for the Company.
Depending upon the amount and terms of the Company's indebtedness at the time
the Warrant is exercised, the Company also might use the proceeds from the
exercise of the Warrant to repay other indebtedness or for general corporate
purposes to satisfy operating cash flow requirements.
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had outstanding $31.2 million of
debt, consisting of the $5 million Term Loan, $17.5 million drawn from the $22
million Revolving Credit, the $6.8 million Equipment Lease and the $1.9 million
Note. On January 30, 1997, the Company also issued the Debenture.
The Term Loan is due on September 1, 1998, and bears interest at the
bank's floating prime rate, currently 8.5% per annum. The Revolving Credit is
due on January 15, 1999, and, if the Company is not in default, the Revolving
Credit is automatically renewable for one-year renewal terms unless the bank, at
its option, delivers written notice of non-renewal to the Company at least 15
months in advance; the Revolving Credit bears interest at the bank's floating
prime rate, currently 8.5% per annum. The Equipment Lease is payable through
June 2001 in monthly installment rental payments that include an interest
component of 9.0%. The Note is due in November 1997 (except for a principal
amount of $600,000, which was due in November 1996 but as to which a dispute
exists) and bears interest at 8.0%. The terms of the Debenture are described
herein under "THE COMPANY -- Debt and Equity Financing."
The Company's debt increased from $12.1 million on December 31, 1995 to
$31.2 million on December 31, 1996 primarily because of the Company's investment
in its Telecommunications Division. See "THE COMPANY."

of shares to be named in the Prospectus Supplement relating to such offering
and, if an underwriting syndicate is used, the managing underwriter or
underwriters, will be set forth on the cover of such Prospectus Supplement.

conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of
the shares if any are purchased.
If dealers are utilized in the sale of shares of Common Stock in respect
of which this Prospectus is delivered, the Selling Stockholder will sell such
shares to the dealers as principals. The dealers may then resell such shares to
the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealers at the time of

forth in a Prospectus Supplement relating thereto.
If an agent is used, the agent will be named, and the terms of the
agency and any commissions will be set forth in a Prospectus Supplement relating
thereto. Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement, any such agent

Shares may be sold directly by the Selling Stockholder to institutional
investors or others, who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of
the Securities Act with respect to any resale thereof. The terms of any such
sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, will be described
in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto.
Agents, dealers and underwriters may be entitled under agreements
entered into with the Selling Stockholder to indemnification against certain

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in substance, that
Delaware corporations shall have the power, under specified circumstances, to
indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with
actions or suits by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact
that they were or are such directors, officers, employees and agents, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) and, in the case of actions, suits or
proceedings brought by third parties, against judgment, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in any such action, suit or
proceeding.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director
shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except for liability (i) for
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders,
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the

provide that the Company may indemnify its directors, officers and legal
representatives to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law against all
awards and expenses (including attorneys' fees).
The Company has purchased an insurance policy that purports to insure
its officers and directors against certain liabilities incurred by them in the

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represents a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective registration statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement; provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from the registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
II-7
<PAGE>
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
the requirements for filing on Form S-2 and has duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in
