address.

     Mr.  Kirschner  was not,  during  the last five  years,  a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as
a result of such  proceeding  was or is subject to a  judgment,  decree or final
order enjoining future  violations of, or prohibiting,  or mandating  activities
