acquirer.

("CRL"),  a public company whose  securities are traded on the Canadian  Venture
Exchange.  As a result of the private  transaction  between the  Registrant  and
CRL's largest shareholder, the Registrant owns approximately 80% of CRL's issued
and  outstanding  stock.  The effective date of the transaction was December 15,
1999.

         CRL's  principal asset consists of its wholly owned  subsidiary,  Capco

at  approximately  $3.75  Million.  CAM has  also  agreed  to  convert  the debt
securities  which it owns in Chaparral  Resources  Inc.  (NASDAQ SC: CHAR),  and

403,226  shares  of  Chaparral  and  16,000,000   shares  of  Nevada   Manhattan
respectively.  These holdings are valued as of this filing at  approximately  $5
