                    legality  of  securities   being   registered   and  Consent
                    of  Counsel included therein.

          23        Consent   of  KPMG  Peat   Marwick, LLP,  Independent Public
                    Accountants.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.

I. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file,  during any period in which  offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective  amendment  to this  Registration  Statement:  (i) to include any
prospectus  required by section  10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to
reflect in the  prospectus  any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the  Registration  Statement  (or the most  recent  post-effective  amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
in the information set forth in the Registration Statement (except to the extent
the  information  required to be included by clauses (i) or (ii) is contained in
periodic reports filed by the Registrant  pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 that are  incorporated  by reference  into this
Registration Statement);  (iii) to include any material information with respect
to the  plan  of  distribution  not  previously  disclosed  in the  Registration
Statement  or any  material  change  to  such  information  in the  Registration
Statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933,  each  such  post-effective  amendment  shall be deemed to be a new




                                       -4-

<PAGE>

registration  statement  relating to the  securities  offered  therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective  amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (4) That for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration
Statement relating to the securities  offered therein,  and the offering of such
securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial  bona fide  offering
thereof.

     (5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the  Registrant  pursuant  to  the  foregoing  provisions,   or  otherwise,  the
Registrant  has been advised that in the opinion of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such  liabilities  (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

II. In accordance with the undertakings described above in section I.(1) of this
Item 9, the registrant sets forth the following:

          The  registrant  recorded  sales  of  $4,101,685  and  a net  loss  of
     $(1,197,795)  for the third  quarter  ended March 31, 1996.  These  figures
     compare  to  sales  of  $4,684,707  and a net  loss of  $(124,272)  for the
     comparable  period  of the  prior  year.  The loss per  share for the third
     quarter  was  $(.30)  compared  to a loss per share of $(.04) for the third
     quarter of last year.

          Net  sales  for  the  9  month  period  ended  March  31,  1996,  were
     $12,992,779,  up 10 percent from net sales of $11,794,489  for the 9 months
     ended April 1, 1995.  The net loss for the 9 month  period  ended March 31,
     1996 was  $(1,121,004)  or  $(.28)  per  share,  compared  to a net loss of
     $(2,746,534)  or $(.67) per  share for the  comparable  period of the prior
     fiscal year.

          Included in the results for both the 9 months and 3 months ended March
     31,  1996  was a third  quarter  restructuring  charge  against  income  of
     $810,000  resulting  from a  provision  for  the  costs  associated  with a
     management buyout and liquidation of the registrant's EW Simulator business
     at  its  foreign  subsidiary  in  England.   This  charge,  which  includes
     provisions  for the writedown of EW Simulator  assets to realizable  value,
     legal and professional  fees and costs to complete an existing EW Simulator
     contract in excess of expected  revenue,  reduced  earnings  for both the 3
     months and 9 months ended March 31, 1996 by $810,000, or $(.20) per share.
