The Company's Italian subsidiaries, following the sale of the
Maserati operations in May 1993, have sharply reduced their
administration and financial personnel as part of their efforts to
reduce and control expenses. As part of these cost saving measures
the O.A.M. S.p.A. subsidiary engaged outside contractors to prepare
the financial information necessary to permit the Company to file
the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information was not
delivered to O.A.M. in sufficient time to enable a timely filing of
the Quarterly Report.
