         (a)      The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this
                  form could not be eliminated  without  unreasonable  effort or
                  expense;

                  report on Form 10-K,  Form 20-F,  Form 11-K, or Form N-SAR, or

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.


PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(1)      Name  and  telephone  number of  person  to  contact  in regard to this
         notification:

             ROBERT T. HASS                          (602)         967-5146
         -----------------------------            -----------  -----------------
                (Name)                            (Area Code) (Telephone Number)

(2)      Have all other periodic  reports  required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
         the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the  Investment
         Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter
         period that the  registrant  was  required to file such  reports)  been
         filed? If answer is no, identify report(s).

                                                              [X]  Yes   [ ] No

         -----------------------------------------------------------------------


(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.
