NOTE A
This Form 13G is filed on behalf of the Reporting Person and Dominion Capital
Fund, Limited ("Dominion"), a Bahamas corporation, with an address of principal
office at c/o Citco Fund Services, Bahamas Financial Centre, 3rd Floor,
Charlotte & Sherley Street, P.O. Box CB-13136, Nassau, Bahamas. Each of the
Reporting Person and Dominion disclaims any intent to act in concert with the
other; they may be treated as a Group solely for definitional purposes of this
Form 13G and accordingly are making this joint filing.
This Form 13G represents ownership of shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer
as follows:
Reporting Person 198,019 shares 5.6%
Dominion 402,435 shares 11.4%
In addition, the Reporting Person holds $850,000 and Dominion holds $1,595,000
of the Issuer's Convertible Debentures. Under the terms of the Debentures, they
are generally convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, where
conversions are effected at a conversion rate equal to (x) 120% of the average
closing bid of a share of Common Stock of the Issuer during the 5 trading days
prior to the purchase of the Debentures, or (y) 65% of the average of the
closing bid price of a share of Common Stock of the Issuer during the 5 trading
days prior to the conversion.. Such Debentures, however, are not currently
fully convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Issuer by the Reporting
Person, because of a provision in Section 2(j) of each of the Debentures which
restricts its right to convert if, the aggregate conversions would exceed 4.9%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Were such restriction
not included in the Debentures, the Reporting Person would, based on current
market prices of such Common Stock at about $2.0875 per share, be able to
convert the Convertible Debentures into 1,801,934 shares of Common Stock.
If all of the Debentures were convertible and converted, the Reporting Person's
and Dominion's total shares would then be 2,402,388 and their percentage
ownership interest would then be 45.1% (Reporting Person - 15.5%; Dominion
- -29.6%). The exact number of shares which would be issuable to the Reporting
Person upon such conversions can not be specified at this time, because the
actual conversion rate at the time of any given conversion may be higher or
lower.
Each of the Reporting Person and Dominion disclaims any beneficial interest in
or voting rights in the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by the other
or any other holder of shares of the Issuer.
The share amounts and prices in this report take into account the 1:6 reverse
stock split effected by issuer on or about October 1, 1998.

Inc. on its behalf.
