PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
11-K, 20-F, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion
thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed period.
The delay in filing the Form 10-Q is due to the devotion of resources to the
development and management of foreign operations, as well as the consolidation
of foreign operations demonimated in multiple currencies. The Company expects to
file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 on or before May 24,
1996.

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject
report or portion thereof?
[X] Yes [ ] No
For the quarter ended March 31, 1996 the Company incurred a net loss of
$145,000, compared to net income of $148,000 earned in the second
quarter of fiscal 1995. The decline in net income and the $900,000
decline in sales is due to delays in completing one large systems order
and long lead-times from quartz vendors. Management believes the
results for the third quarter will be significantly improved as
compared to this quarter and will compare favorably to the third
quarter of fiscal 1995.
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons
why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
