SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Preparation
- ----------------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the requirements of Form 10-QSB and include all adjustments which in the
opinion of management are necessary in order to make the financial statements
not misleading. Certain items in the fiscal 1996 financial statements have
been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 1997 manner of presentation. The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and profits have been eliminated.
Note 2 - New Accounting Pronouncements
- -------------------------------------------
On March 3, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS
128). This pronouncement provides a different method of calculating earnings
per share than is currently used in accordance with Accounting Principles
Board Opinion (APB) No. 15, "Earnings per Share." SFAS 128 provides for the
calculation of "Basic" and "Diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per
share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar
to fully diluted earnings per share. The Company will adopt SFAS 128 in 1998
and its implementation is not expected to have a material effect on the
consolidated financial statements.
Note 3 - Business Acquisitions
- ------------------------------------
On August 4, 1995, NBI, Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of
the Belle Vernon Motel Corporation for $2,430,000 in cash pursuant to a stock
purchase agreement. During fiscal 1996, the Company changed the name of the
Belle Vernon Motel Corporation to NBI Properties, Inc. NBI Properties, Inc.
owns and operates an 81 room Holiday Inn in Southwestern Pennsylvania. The
primary assets held by the acquired corporation consist of cash, accounts
receivable, property and equipment. The Company received approval as an
authorized Holiday Inn franchisee prior to the purchase transaction. The
property and equipment acquired continues to be operated as a Holiday Inn
Hotel.
On August 14, 1995, with an effective date of close of business on July 31,
1995, American Glass, Inc., a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of NBI,
Inc., completed its purchase of a majority of the assets of L.E. Smith Glass
Company of Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, pursuant to an asset purchase and
sale agreement. L.E. Smith Glass Company is a manufacturer of handmade fine
glass giftware and lighting fixtures and has been in business since 1907. The
assets purchased consist primarily of accounts receivable, inventories, and
property, plant and equipment. The property, plant and equipment acquired
continues to be used in the manufacture of handmade fine glass giftware and
lighting fixtures. The final adjusted purchase price of $5,770,000 was paid
with (i) the assumption of $3,449,000 of certain liabilities at July 31, 1995,
(ii) cash, and (iii) cash proceeds from the liquidation of other current
assets held by the Company.
Both acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. The results of operations of these acquired businesses have been
included in the accompanying Statements of Operations since the effective
dates of acquisition.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 4 - Discontinued Operations
- ------------------------------------
As of August 27, 1996, the Company has discontinued all of its operations in
the computer industry segment. Therefore, it has separately reported the
losses from this segment as discontinued operations for the three and nine
months ended March 31, 1996. At June 30, 1996, the Company estimated the net
realizable value of the sale or disposal of the discontinued operations,
including estimated costs and expenses directly associated with the disposal
and estimated losses from operations through the expected disposal date, and
expects a moderate overall gain from the discontinued operations. This gain
will be recognized when it is realized.
There was no revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1997, and $395,000 of revenue from discontinued operations for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997. Revenues from the discontinued operations
totaled $174,000 and $498,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31,
1996, respectively.
Note 5 - Cash and Cash Equivalents
- ----------------------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents include investments that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less.
The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with financial
institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of federally
insured limits.
Note 6 - Investments in Securities and Obligations from Short-Sale
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transactions
- ------------
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, all of the
Company's securities were classified as trading securities; no securities were
classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale. For the quarter ended
March 31, 1997, the Company recorded net realized and unrealized gains of
$292,000 and $122,000, respectively, compared to net realized and unrealized
losses of $66,000 and $411,000, respectively in the same quarter of the prior
fiscal year. The Company recorded net realized and unrealized gains of
$353,000 and $232,000, respectively, for the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
compared to a net realized gain of $535,000 and a net unrealized loss of
$332,000 in the same period of the prior fiscal year. During the first
quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company sold a significant portion of its
securities to fund its two business acquisitions.
As part of its investment policies, the Company's investment portfolio may
include option instruments and may include a concentrated position in one or
more securities. As a result of this, the financial results may fluctuate
significantly and have larger fluctuations than with a more diversified
portfolio. In addition, the Company may invest in short-sale transactions of
trading securities. Short-sales can result in off-balance sheet risk, as
losses can be incurred in excess of the reported obligation if market prices
of the securities subsequently increase.

In January 1997, the Company exercised its purchase option for $1 million on
approximately 88 acres of undeveloped land located in southwestern
Pennsylvania. The purchase was funded by cash and cash equivalents, including
$100,000 which was paid in fiscal 1996 in accordance with the terms of the
agreement. The Company plans to pursue commercial development of the
property.
Note 9 - Income Taxes
- -------------------------
IRS Debt:
- ----------
On October 13, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement in principle with
the IRS, effective October 1, 1995. This agreement revises the payment terms
provided in its settlement agreement with the IRS dated June 12, 1991, as to
NBI's federal income tax liabilities for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1980
through 1988. The new agreement provided for a principal payment of $250,000,
plus accrued interest for the period July 1, 1995 through September 30, 1995,
at the original stated rate, and accrued interest for the period October 1,
1995 through December 31, 1995, at the rate of 7.5% per annum, which was paid
upon execution of the definitive agreement on March 19, 1996. Subsequently,
quarterly interest payments were due beginning April 1, 1996 through October
1, 1997. Interest was paid and accrued on the outstanding principal balance
at the rate of 7.5% for the period October 1, 1995 through March 31, 1996.
The interest rate for April 1, 1996 through October 1, 1997 is being
negotiated, under the terms of the agreement, based upon NBI's ability to pay
the statutory rate, but in no event will the interest rate for this period
exceed the lesser of the statutory rate or 10%. The Company is paying
interest on the scheduled payment dates based upon the rate of 7.5% for this
period until the negotiations are finalized. The remaining principal balance
of $5.3 million is due in full on October 1, 1997 and is included in the
current portion of the IRS debt.
In order to pay such amount, management intends to obtain additional debt or
equity financing. The Company is currently researching various financing
options; however there can be no assurances the Company will be able to obtain
such financing. The Company's ability to continue as a going-concern is
dependent upon attainment of financing sufficient to pay off the IRS debt when
due.
<PAGE>
NBI, INC.
SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
In conjunction with the new agreement, the Company granted the IRS a security
interest in all of the capital stock of American Glass, Inc., as well as all
of the capital stock of NBI Properties, Inc. The security interest will
automatically terminate upon full payment by NBI of all principal and interest
owed to the IRS under the agreement.
The agreement also provides for accelerated principal payments to be made
within forty-five days after the end of any fiscal quarter in which NBI,
Inc.'s unconsolidated cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash,
exceed $1.3 million. The Company is required to pay to the IRS fifty percent
of the amount by which such cash and cash equivalents exceed $1.3 million.
Any such payment shall be applied to and shall reduce the outstanding
principal balance.
There is no accelerated principal amount payable in accordance with the
revised agreement based upon the Company's cash and cash equivalents at March
31, 1997. Furthermore, any other accelerated principal payments due under the
new agreement within the next twelve months, based upon subsequent quarter-end
cash and cash equivalent positions, are not determinable at March 31, 1997.
Income tax provision:
- -----------------------
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997, the Company recorded an
income tax benefit of $11,000 and an income tax provision of $90,000,
respectively, including state income tax provisions. These amounts were based
upon book income. Due to significant temporary differences related mainly to
bad debt reserve recoveries and unrealized investment gains, the Company
estimates a taxable loss as of March 31, 1997.
In accordance with fresh start accounting, which was adopted as of April 30,
1992, and as a result of the Company's reorganization under Chapter 11 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code, utilization of any income tax benefit from
pre-reorganization net operating losses are not credited to the income tax
provision, but rather, reported as an addition to capital in excess of par
value. There was a non-cash reversal of $25,000 and no non-cash component
included in the income tax benefit and provision for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1997, respectively, as no pre-reorganization net operating
losses are expected to be used for fiscal year 1997.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 1996, the Company recorded an
income tax benefit of $196,000 and an income tax provision of $177,000,
respectively, including state provisions. These amounts were based upon book
income and included a non-cash charge of $11,000 related to the utilization of
the Company's pre-reorganization net operating loss carryforwards for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996.
Note 10 - Hotel Improvements and Other Commitments
---------------------------------------------------------
As of March 31, 1997, the Company's hotel operation had completed a majority
of approximately $1,000,000 in planned renovations. The remaining
improvements are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal
1997. As a result of these renovations, the Company is now in compliance with
the Holiday Inn franchise agreement provisions regarding certain property
improvement requirements.
On December 3, 1996, the Company obtained a $1,000,000 bank mortgage, under a
construction and term loan agreement, to fund these improvements. As of March
31, 1997, $981,000 had been advanced, of which $15,000 is included in current
portion of notes payable. Advances under the note bear interest at the bank's
"Basic Rate" (8.25% at March 31, 1997) plus 1%, payable monthly until July 1,
1997, at which time all improvements are to be completed. Principal and
interest at 8.85% is then payable in monthly installments of $9,000. After
five years, the interest rate changes to the five year U.S. Treasury rate plus
2.7%. The note is due in full July 1, 2007, and is collateralized by a first
security interest in the hotel assets.

(Unaudited)
Note 11 - Stockholders' Equity
- ----------------------------------
The Company has authorized 20,000,000 shares of $.01 par value common stock.
At March 31,1997, 10,005,020 shares were issued including 2,027,536 held in
treasury. Therefore, the Company had 7,977,484 shares issued and outstanding
at March 31, 1997, including 1,500,000 shares which are unregistered.
In March 1996, the Company issued 1,500,000 unregistered shares of its common
stock from shares held in treasury through a private placement stock offering.
The offering resulted in net proceeds of $1,047,000 which was
used by the Company first to pay obligations due to the IRS and then for
operating capital of the Company. Holders of at least 50% of the shares
issued have had the right to demand registration of the shares since December
1, 1996. Holders also have the right, until December 31, 1999, to have their
shares registered at any time the Company registers shares for its own
purpose. In March 1997, the Company filed a Form S-3 with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering these shares. This
registration statement has not yet been declared effective.
In February 1995, the Company issued warrants to purchase 1.7 million shares
of its common stock at $.89 per share in conjunction with an acquisition.
These warrants are exercisable through December 31, 2002. As of March 31,
1997, no warrants had been exercised.
Note 12 - Seasonal Variations of Operations
- -------------------------------------------------
Due to seasonal variations in these businesses, all of the Company's ongoing
operations typically have their strongest revenue performance during the first
fiscal quarter. Generally, the second and fourth fiscal quarters' revenues
from these operations are moderately lower than in the first quarter, while
the third fiscal quarter's revenue is usually significantly lower than the
other quarters.
Note 13 - Other Income and Expenses
- -----------------------------------------
Included in other income and expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1997
is income of $348,000, net of legal fees, related to the recovery of a note
receivable that the Company had previously established a reserve for. Also
included in other income and expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1997
were expenses of $126,000 for architect fees related to hotel improvement
projects that the Company has decided not to pursue.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THIRD QUARTER, FISCAL YEAR 1997
The statements in this discussion contain both historical and forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements are based upon current
expectations and the actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated. Factors that may affect such forward-looking statements include,
among others, competitive factors and pricing pressures, loss of significant
customers, availability of raw materials, labor disputes, investment results,
ability to obtain financing, adequacy of insurance coverage, reliance on key
personnel, inflation and general economic conditions.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal year 1997
increased $571,000, or 21.2%, to $3.3 million from $2.7 million in the third
quarter of the prior fiscal year. Year-to-date, revenues totaled $10.6
million for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, an increase of $2.0 million,
or 22.9%, as compared to the same period of fiscal 1996.
Sales revenue of $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased
$588,000, or 25.8%, from the same period of the prior fiscal year. For the
nine months ended March 31, 1997, sales revenue totaled $9.2 million, an
increase of $1.9 million, or 25.3% compared to the same period in fiscal 1996.
The sales revenue growth was primarily related to expanded market penetration
by the glass company resulting from its increased focus on the smaller
individually-owned stores. Year-to-date, the sales revenue also included an
increase resulting from the inclusion of a full nine months of revenue from
the L.E. Smith Glass Company during the fiscal period ended March 31, 1997,
compared to revenues for the period August 1, 1995, its acquisition date,
through March 31, 1996 included in the same period of fiscal 1996. In
addition, the Company had increased sales revenue from Krazy Colors, Inc. for
the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997, as compared to the same
periods in fiscal 1996 resulting from a large order from a new catalog
distributor.
Service and rental revenue totaled $398,000 and $1.4 million for the three and
nine months ended March 31, 1997 respectively, as compared to $415,000 and
$1.3 million for the same periods in fiscal 1996. The decline in revenues
during the third quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to fiscal 1996 was
experienced because the third quarter of fiscal 1996 included increased
occupancy rates related to bookings from flood assistance organizations and
inclement weather activity. This decline was significantly offset by a
moderate increase in food and beverage revenues from the hotel. The increased
revenues year-to-date resulted from the inclusion of nine full months of
revenue from the hotel during fiscal 1997, compared to revenues for the period
August 4, 1995, its acquisition date, through March 31, 1996 included in the
same period of fiscal 1996, partially offset by a decrease in revenues during
the second quarter of fiscal 1997 resulting from a reduction in available
rooms at the Belle Vernon Holiday Inn due to the hotel renovation activity.
Total revenues from continuing operations are expected to increase moderately
for the three months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the same period in
the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased sales efforts for the glass
manufacturing company, partially offset by an expected decline in revenues
from the paint manufacturing company due to a refocus of the sales efforts.
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 are expected to increase
slightly compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1997, primarily due to
increased activity at the Belle Vernon Holiday Inn resulting from seasonal
variations, partially offset by a decline in expected revenues from Krazy
Colors.
Cost of sales, service and rental was 74.2% and 73.7% of total revenue for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, cost of sales, service and rental were 70.1%
and 71.8% of total revenue, respectively.

THIRD QUARTER, FISCAL YEAR 1997 - CONTINUED
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 was 72.7% compared to 73.2% for the same period in fiscal 1996.
The resulting improved gross margin was primarily related to the increased
revenue volume of Krazy Colors, Inc., as the gross margin on the sales from
L.E. Smith Glass Company remained steady. For the nine months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, cost of sales as a percentage of sales revenue was 69.2% and
71.8%, respectively. Fiscal 1997's year-to-date gross margin on sales
reflected an improvement due to an overstatement of cost of goods sold of
$99,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996, which was corrected in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1996, as well as an improvement resulting from the increased
revenue volume of both the glass company and paint manufacturing operations.
Cost of service as a percentage of service and rental revenue was 85.2% and
76.4% for the three months ended March 31, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The
related decline in gross margin occurred primarily due to the lower room
rental volume experienced during the third quarter of fiscal 1997, as the
Company realizes more favorable gross margin on room rentals than on food and
beverage services. In addition, the hotel had increased fixed costs for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period in fiscal 1996,
resulting from additional depreciation and amortization related to the
renovations completed during fiscal 1997. For the nine months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, cost of service and rental and a percentage of service and
rental revenue was 76.0% and 72.1%, respectively. Fiscal 1997's year-to-date
gross margin decline was also affected by the decreased revenue volume during
the second quarter of fiscal 1997 resulting from the hotel renovation project,
without a corresponding decrease in costs, as the costs include a significant
amount of fixed expenses.
Cost of sales, service and rental as a percentage of total revenue for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 is expected to increase modestly, compared to
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, primarily due to a less favorable sales mix
from the glass company expected during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.
This increase is also due to a projected increase in costs from the hotel
operations primarily resulting from additional depreciation and amortization
related to the renovations completed during fiscal year 1997. Cost of sales,
service and rental as a percentage of total revenue for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1997 is also expected to increase slightly compared to the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 due to the projected sales mix of the glass company, as
well as an expected decline in revenue volume from the paint manufacturing
operation available to cover fixed costs, partially offset by improved margins
on the hotel operations resulting from an expected increase in revenues.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled $819,000 and $689,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
increased expenses were primarily related to increased sales and marketing
activities. In addition, the third quarter of fiscal 1997 included an accrual
for the CEO bonus, based upon the provisions of his employment agreement, due
to the reported pre-tax income for this quarter, whereas the Company recorded
an accrual reversal in the same period of the prior fiscal year, due to the
pre-tax loss incurred during that quarter. Marketing, general and
administrative expenses totaled $2.5 million for the nine months ended March
31, 1997, an increase of $584,000 compared to expenses of $1.9 million for the
same period of fiscal 1996. The year-to-date increase in marketing, general
and administrative expenses was also affected by the inclusion of the glass
manufacturing and hotel operations for a full nine months in fiscal 1997,
while these operations were only included since their acquisition dates,
August 1, 1995 and August 4, 1995, respectively, in the same period of fiscal
1996. In addition, the nine months ended March 31, 1996 included $41,000 of
credits related to certain reserve adjustments.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses are expected to increase
moderately for the three months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to both the
same period in the prior fiscal year and the third quarter of fiscal 1997,
primarily due to the increased sales and marketing activities.

THIRD QUARTER, FISCAL YEAR 1997 - CONTINUED
The Company recorded net gains on investments of $414,000 and $585,000 for the
three and nine months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, compared to a net
loss on investments of $477,000 and a net gain on investments of $203,000 for
the same periods in fiscal 1996, respectively. As part of its investment
policy, the Company's investment portfolio may include investments in option
instruments and may include a concentrated position in one or more securities.
As a result, the financial results may fluctuate significantly and
have larger fluctuations than with a more diversified portfolio. In addition,
the Company may invest in short-sale transactions of trading securities.
Short-sales can result in off-balance sheet risk, as losses can be incurred in
excess of the reported obligation if market prices of the securities
subsequently increase.
The Company recorded net other income of $22,000 and $10,000 for the quarters
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the nine months ended March
31, 1997 and 1996, the Company had net other income of $223,000 and $68,000,
respectively. The year-to-date increase resulted from the recovery of a note
receivable in the second quarter of fiscal 1997, partially offset by
architectural expenses related to hotel improvement projects that the Company
decided not to pursue.
The Company recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of
$11,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 and an income tax provision from
continuing operations of $90,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, as
compared to an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $196,000 and
an income tax provision from continuing operations of $177,000 for the same
periods in fiscal 1996, respectively. Included in these amounts are state
income tax provisions of $24,000 and $122,000 for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1997, respectively, compared to $4,000 and $103,000 for the
same periods in fiscal 1996, respectively. The state income tax provisions
are primarily related to the Company's Pennsylvania operations. NBI does not
have any net operating loss carryforwards available in Pennsylvania; however
it does have significant federal net operating loss carryforwards, as well as
significant net operating loss carryforwards in several other states.
Therefore, the Company has no federal or other state income taxes payable. In
accordance with fresh start accounting, the income tax benefit and provisions
recorded do include non-cash charges to the extent that the Company expects to
use its pre-reorganization net operating loss carryforwards. These charges
are reported as an addition to capital in excess of par value, rather than as
a credit through the income tax provision. The Company expects a taxable loss
in fiscal 1997, due to significant temporary differences primarily related to
bad debt reserve recoveries and unrealized investment gains, resulting in
lower non-cash charges to the income tax provision during fiscal 1997.
Accordingly, there was no non-cash component included in the income tax
provision for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, compared to a non-cash
charge of $11,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
As of August 27, 1996, the Company has discontinued all of its operations in
the computer industry segment. Therefore, it has separately reported the
losses from this segment of $42,000 and $128,000 for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1996, respectively, as discontinued operations. At June 30,
1996, the Company estimated the net realizable value of the sale or disposal
of the discontinued operations, including estimated costs and expenses
directly associated with the disposal and estimated losses from operations
through the expected disposal date, and expects a moderate overall gain from
the discontinued operations. This gain will be recognized when it is
realized.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's total assets increased $1.5 million to $11.7 million at March
31, 1997 from $10.2 million at June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily
related to net income of $908,000 recognized for the nine months ended March
31, 1997, as well an increase in hotel property and equipment, related to the
renovations, which was funded by a mortgage note. The Company had negative
working capital of $4.2 million at March 31, 1997, compared

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

THIRD QUARTER, FISCAL YEAR 1997 - CONTINUED
to working capital of $1.5 million at June 30, 1996. The decline of $5.7
million in working capital was primarily related to the reclassification of
the IRS debt to current during the second quarter of fiscal 1997. In
addition, in January 1997, the Company exercised its purchase option for $1
million on approximately 88 acres of undeveloped land located in southwestern
Pennsylvania. The purchase was funded by cash and cash equivalents.
The Company plans to pursue commercial development of the property and is
currently researching financing options to fund the project.
The entire outstanding principal balance on the IRS debt of $5,278,000 at
March 31, 1997 is due in full on October 1, 1997 and was reclassified to
current liabilities during the second quarter of fiscal 1997. In order to pay
such amount, the Company will need to obtain additional debt or equity
financing. The Company is currently exploring various financing options;
however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
such financing or that if it is able to obtain such financing, that it will be
on favorable terms. The Company's ability to continue as a going-concern is
dependent upon attainment of financing sufficient to pay off the IRS debt when
due.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company's hotel operation had completed a majority
of approximately $1,000,000 in planned renovations. The remaining
improvements are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal
1997. As a result of these renovations, the Company is now in compliance with
the Holiday Inn franchise agreement provisions regarding its property
improvement requirements. During the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the
Company was successful in obtaining a first mortgage on the hotel assets to
fund these renovations.
The Company's glass manufacturing operation is in process of obtaining a long-
term loan to finance approximately $650,000 of capital expenditures expected
to be completed within the next six months.
The Company expects its other working capital requirements in the next fiscal
year to be met by existing working capital at March 31, 1997, internally
generated funds and short-term borrowings.
