Item 2. Acqisition or Disposition of Assetse
Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, the Registrant acquired all the
capital stock of Donald Henig, Inc. ("DHI"), First Equities Commercial Corp.,
First Equities Service Corp., 235,294.11 shares in the Aristocrat Endeavor Fund
(a publicly traded Burmuda mutual fund) and 100,000 shares of Wireless Mexicano,
Inc.
DHI is a licensed mortgage banker in eight states with 25 retail branch
offices and two wholesale branch offices. Presently there are more than 200 full
and part-time employees who along with its completely automated mortgage
processing facility help expedite the large volume of loans originated on a
daily basis. There are separate departments for each area of business each with
its own managers, processors and underwriters. The various departments are "A"
loans, Government and "B" and "C" credit loans. In early 1996 management decided
to put into place plans of expansion by opening new branch offices and acquiring
branch offices from other mortgage banks and mortgage brokers. DHI has
successfully opened 23 branches, bringing the retail branch total to 25.
DHI is presently licensed as a mortgage banker in New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Florida, Missouri, Alaska, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and New
Mexico. Management has targeted a number of additional states to apply for
licenses. The branch network is now producing monthly originations in excess of
$25 million and is growing rapidly as each of the new branches become
established. It is company policy not to open up a branch unless an experienced
branch manager is available for the particular location. Because of the method
it has adopted for expansion, the cost of opening new branches and promoting
them is reasonable. Each of the branches, when warranted, has its own processing
unit with final underwriting and supervision by DHI management. All quality
control is likewise performed by DHI management.
First Equities Commercial Corp. is a mortgage banking firm which
specializes in the financing of commercial properties on a national basis, and
First Equities Service Corp. intends to sell mortgage life insurance utilizing
the DHI's customer base.

b. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
c. Mortgage Inventory
The Company presents its mortgage inventory at the lower of cost or market.
As of the date of this report, substantially all of the December 31, 1996
mortgage inventory has been sold. Mortgage inventory secures the related
warehouse lines of credit.
d. Accounts Receivable
Management has analyzed accounts receivable at December 31, 1996 and
considers all accounts to be currently collectible. Therefore, no provision has
been made for uncollectible accounts. As of the date of this report,
substantially all of the accounts receivable have been collected.
e. Deferred Costs
All direct processing costs associated with mortgages in the DHI's pipeline
at December 31, 1996 have been deferred. These costs include commissions,
processing salaries and related expenses, appraisal fees, credit costs, and
other direct expenses.
Commissions paid under a "draw against commission" arrangement have been
deferred when the draw exceeds the commission earned.
f. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment contributed to DHI are stated at the appraised fair
market values at the date of contribution. Property and equipment purchased by
the corporation are stated at cost.
Depreciation is calculated using straight-line and accelerated methods over
the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation charged to operations,
which includes amortization of capital lease obligations, for the year ended
December 31, 1996, was $50,942.
g. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of goodwill, acquired from UCMC Consulting Corp.,
in the amount of $150,000, and a franchise fee paid to Mortgage Tech Group,
Ltd., purchased in 1994 for $6,000, and organization costs in the amount of
$492,972, incurred in 1996 for the start up of new branches. These items are
being amortized over fifteen, five and three years, respectively. The total
amortization expense charged to operations during 1996 was $98,362.
h. Revenue Recognition
All fees are earned and recognized as revenue when the related mortgages
close. Premium income is recognized when the related mortgage closes and a
binding purchase agreement is effectuated, or after title is transferred,
whichever occurs first.
Certain application, commitment and other fees associated with the
Company's pipeline as of December 31, 1996, collected during loan processing,
give rise to the liability account "deferred income".

Note 3 - Acquisitions
a. Acquisition of Donald Henig, Inc.
On May 5, 1997, among other assets, the Company acquired all the capital
stock of DHI, a New York corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of IMN Equities,
for 20,421,700 shares of common stock with a per share value of $.21. The
transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and using the
purchase method of accounting with historic costs being the basis of valuation,
and accordingly, the accompanying proforma consolidated financial statements
include the consolidated balance sheet for the Company as of March 31, 1997 and
DHI as December 31, 1996, which includes an adjustment for an addtional
$2,000,000 capital infusion subsequent to the date of DHI's financial statements
(see "Subsequent Events") and for the Company the results of operations, cash
flows and stockholders' equity for the six months ended March 31, 1997 and for
DHI the results of operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31,
1996 as if the entities had been consolidated during the periods presented.
DHI was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on December 1,
1992. It operates under the names "Island Mortgage Network" and "Reliance
Mortgage Network". Its principal business activity is that of a licensed
mortgage banker. Presently, all mortgages are either table funded or funded
through the Company's warehouse lines of credit. Those funded using the
warehouse lines of credit are closed subject to a binding purchase agreement
with an investor and sold shortly after closing. The Company does not perform
any loan servicing activities. The Company received its New York State mortgage
banker's license on May 12, 1994. It holds additional licenses in the states of
Connecticut, New Jersey, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, North
Carolina, and Missouri. As of the date of this report, the Company has applied
for its mortgage banking licenses in a number of additional states. It is the
Company's intention to continue its expansion nationally.
b. Reorganization
Pursuant to an agreement dated September 1, 1995, between DHI, the existing
corporate shareholder, and certain investors, a complete change in ownership of
the Company was effectuated. In accordance with the agreement, the Company
entered into employment contracts with the existing president and exchanged
certain corporate receivables for a 5 percent interest in Mortgage Tech Group
Ltd.

NOTES TO PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1997
In September of 1996, DHI, its shareholders and First Equities Corp.
(formerly Cenna Communications, Inc.) entered into an agreement wherein a
reverse acquisition was effectuated. As a result of the transactions the
shareholders of DHI received shares of First Equities Corp. on a pro-rata basis,
in exchange for their shares in DHI. This transaction did not change control of
DHI as the principal shareholders retained in excess of 90% of the outstanding
stock of the parent.
In May, 1996, the capital stock of DHI was transferred to IMN Equities.
c. Mergers, Acquisitions, and Disposals
Pursuant to an agreement between DHI and C.S. Amsterdam Realty, Inc., dated

3.16 Employee Benefit Plans.
(a) Schedule 3.16 lists, with respect to DHI and any trade or business
(whether or not incorporated) which is treated as a single employer
with DHI (an "ERISA Affiliate"), (i) all material employee benefit
plans, (ii) each loan to a non-officer employee in excess of $10,000,
loans to officers and directors and any stock option, stock purchase,
phantom stock, stock appreciation right, supplemental retirement,
severance, sabbatical, medical, dental, vision care, disability,
employee relocation, cafeteria benefit or dependent care, life
insurance or accident insurance plans, programs or arrangements, (iii)
all bonus, pension, profit sharing, savings, deferred compensation or
incentive plans, programs or arrangements, (iv) other fringe or
employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements that apply to senior
management of DHI and that do not generally apply to all employees,
and (v) any current or former employment or executive compensation or
severance agreements, written or otherwise, as to which unsatisfied
obligations of DHI of greater than $10,000 remain for the benefit of,
or relating to, any present or former employee, consultant or director
of DHI (together, the "DHI Employee Plans").
(b) IMN has furnished to NGT a copy of each of the DHI Employee Plans and
related plan documents (including trust documents, insurance policies
or contracts, employee booklets, summary plan descriptions and other
authorizing documents, and, to the extent still in its possession, any
material employee communications relating thereto) and has, with
respect to each DHI Employee Plan which is subject to ERISA reporting
requirements. Any DHI Employee Plan intended to be qualified under the
Code has either obtained from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable
determination letter as to its qualified status under the Code,
including all amendments to the Code effected by the Tax Reform Act of
1986 and subsequent legislation, or has applied to the Internal
Revenue Service for such a determination letter prior to the
expiration of the requisite period under applicable Treasury
Regulations or Internal Revenue Service pronouncements in which to
apply for such determination letter and to make any amendments
necessary to obtain a favorable determination, or has been established
under a standardized prototype plan for which an Internal Revenue
Service opinion letter has been obtained by the plan sponsor and is
valid as to the adopting employer. DHI has also furnished NGT with the
most recent Internal Revenue Service determination or opinion letter
issued with respect to each such DHI Employee Plan, and nothing has
occurred since the issuance of each such letter which could reasonably
be expected to cause the loss of the tax-qualified status of any DHI
Employee Plan.
(c) Administration
(i) None of the DHI Employee Plans promises or provides retiree
medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person;
(ii) there has been no "prohibited transaction," as such term is
defined the Code, with respect to any DHI Employee Plan, which
could reasonably be expected to have, in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect;
(iii)each DHI Employee Plan has been administered in accordance with
its terms and in compliance with the requirements prescribed by
any and all statutes, rules and regulations, except as would not
have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; and DHI and
any ERISA Affiliate have performed all material obligations
required to be performed by them under, are not in any material
respect in default under or violation of, and have no knowledge
of any material default or violation by any other party to, any
of the DHI Employee Plans;
(iv) neither DHI nor any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any liability
or penalty under with respect to any of the DHI Employee Plans;
(v) all material contributions required to be made by DHI or ERISA
Affiliate to any DHI Employee Plan have been made on or before
their due dates and a reasonable amount has been accrued for
contributions to each DHI Employee Plan for the current plan
years
(d) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement
will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or other service
provider of DHI or any other ERISA Affiliate to severance benefits or
any other payment (including, without limitation, unemployment
compensation, golden parachute or bonus), except as expressly provided
in the Agreement, or (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting of
any such benefits, or increase the amount of compensation due any such
employee or service provider.
(e) There has been no amendment to, written interpretation or announcement
(whether or not written) by DHI or other ERISA Affiliate relating to,
or change in participation or coverage under, any DHI Employee Plan
which would materially increase the expense of maintaining such Plan
above the level of expense incurred with respect to that Plan for the
most recent fiscal year included in the DHI Financial Statements.

DHI's best knowledge, there are no pending claims against DHI under any

such employees. In addition, DHI has provided all employees, with all
