ITEM 3. BANKRUPTCY OR RECEIVERSHIP.
On November 22, 1996, Bankruptcy Judge Jeffry H. Gallet of the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, Docket No.
96 B 44434, signed an order confirming the registrant's Plan of Reorganization
(the "Plan"), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1 to registrant's
Disclosure Statement ("Disclosure Statement") for the Plan, filed as Exhibit A
hereto. Under the Plan, the registrant will merge with ORA Electronics, Inc.
("ORA"), effective upon the filing of a merger agreement between the registrant
and ORA, expected to be on or about December 16, 1996. Until such filing, either
participant in the proposed merger may withdraw. Upon the merger, the management
of ORA will become the management of the surviving corporation.
ORA is a supplier of portable cellular telephone and PCS (Personal
Communication Systems) accessories and enhancement products. Among ORA's
comprehensive line of products are hands-free solutions for portable cellular
telephones; battery charging solutions (including quick and fast charging
systems); power/performance enhancing products; other essentials for portable
cellular telephones and PCS handsets (including starter-kits, batteries, power
cords and carrying cases); speciality batteries (such as a vibrating battery);
antennas; mounts; and cradles which hold a portable phone in place in a vehicle.
ORA operates from an 80,000 square foot facility in the Technology Park of
Chatsworth, California and has approximately 75 employees.
The registrant currently has 14,997,599 outstanding shares of Common
Stock, par value $.001 per share ("NAE shares"), and is committed to issue
2,880,920 shares which are not authorized but the registrant is committed to
issue once authorized ("committed shares"). Assuming the merger becomes
effective, the authorized shares of ORA, the surviving corporation, will
comprise 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 per share ("ORA shares"), and
5,000,000 preferred shares, par value $.001 per share. Of such shares, (i)
5,000,000 ORA shares would be issued to the current stockholders of ORA, (ii)
246,500 ORA shares plus additional shares for rounding (described below) would
be issued to former holders of NAE shares and committed shares, (iii) an
aggregate of 3,500 ORA shares would be issued in exchange for claims of
creditors of the registrant, (iv) 160,566 ORA shares would be issued by ORA to a
financial consultant as consideration for services rendered in connection with
the merger, and (v) approximately 1,170,500 ORA shares would be issued in full
satisfaction of indebtedness and trade payables due an individual. The number of
ORA shares to be issued to such individual will increase by approximately 165
shares each day from December 3, 1996 to the date of such issuance to reflect
accrued interest on such indebtedness. No preferred shares will be issued by ORA
in the merger. The 246,500 shares to be issued to the former holders of NAE
shares and committed shares assumes that the Bankruptcy Court approves the
inclusion in such pool of 4,000 ORA shares previously allocated under the Plan
to certain administrative claim holders of North American (the "Reallocation").

<PAGE>
In addition, the Plan contemplates that warrants ("Warrants") would
be issued to holders of NAE shares and committed shares, entitling the holders
thereof to purchase ORA shares at the following exercise prices per share and
during the following periods after the Plan becomes effective:
AGGREGATE EXERCISE EXERCISE
WARRANTS NUMBER PRICE PERIOD
-------- --------- ------- --------
Class A 392,000 $ 5.00 180 days
Class B 588,000 10.00 18 months
Class C 490,000 15.00 36 months
Class D 686,000 20.00 60 months
The holders of outstanding NAE shares and committed shares would
share pro rata in a pool of ORA securities comprising 246,500 ORA shares,
392,000 Class A Warrants, 588,000 Class B Warrants, 490,000 Class C Warrants and
686,000 Class D Warrants. Such numbers assume the Bankruptcy Court approves the
Reallocation which includes Warrants. Under the Plan, ORA would issue additional
ORA shares and Warrants to round up the numbers of shares and Warrants received
by each holder of NAE shares and committed shares which are not integral
multiples of 100 to the next higher multiple of 100 shares and Warrants. Under
the aforesaid order confirming the Plan, such roundings will be available only
to holders of outstanding NAE shares (including beneficial owners of shares held
by nominees) and committed shares who held their shares on August 19, 1996, the
date on which a petition was originally filed by the registrant under the
Bankruptcy Code, and who surrender their certificates (or, in the case of
committed shares, other evidence satisfactory to ORA) to ORA representing all of
the NAE shares and committed shares held by such holders on such date.
As a result of the issuances of ORA shares referred to above, and
assuming the issuance of 100,000 shares pursuant to the round-up feature
described above, it is expected that, following the merger, ORA will have
approximately 6,681,500 shares outstanding, of which about 5.2% would be held by
the prior holders of NAE shares and committed shares.
ORA will grant to its financial consultant, in addition to the
shares of common stock referenced above, an option to purchase 14,772 shares of
its common stock (the "A Option"), an option to purchase 20,208 shares of its
common stock (the "B Option"), an option to purchase 17,478 shares of its common
stock (the "C Option") and an option to purchase 23,022 shares of common stock
(the "D Option"). The A Option, the B Option, the C Option and the D Option have
the same exercise prices and terms as the Class A Warrants, the Class B
Warrants, the Class C Warrants and the Class D Warrants, respectively.
Prior to the effective date of the Plan, the registrant does not
have any tangible assets but has creditor claims of $15,500, which are to be
satisfied for 3,500 ORA shares.

As of March 31, 1996, ORA had total assets of approximately $17.1
million of which approximately $10.2 were current assets, and approximately
$15.9 million of total liabilities of which approximately $8.7 million were
current liabilities. Total stockholders' equity was approximately $1.3 million.
For the 12 months ended March 31, 1996, ORA had a net loss of approximately $1.4
million on net sales of approximately $24.1 million.
