NG entered into agreements with companies located in Canada, Michigan,

consulting services.  A total of $256,000 in revenue was recognized in the
third quarter of 1999.

statements of NG. These statements include a balance sheet, income statement,
and statement of cash flows.  All significant intercompany transactions have

In May 1995, NG invested $1,000,000 in Separation Technologies, Inc. (STI).
This investment is in the form of 153,846 shares of 6% cumulative convertible
preferred stock.  NG also provides maintenance services for STI equipment on
an as needed basis, for which no revenue was recognized in the third quarter
