(1)  WARRANT EXERCISE.  In August and September 1994 the Company
     completed a private placement of securities, including 1,000,000 redeemable
     common stock purchase Warrants that expire in August and September 1999. 
     Each Warrant entitles the Holder to purchase one share of Common Stock of
     the Company for $2.00.  The Warrants are redeemable at a price of $.10 per
     warrant and provision for the call of the warrants are effective, meaning
     the Company can now call the Warrants, if not exercised.  The Company also
     currently has an effective SEC Registration Statement (Registration No.
     33-89596) permitting the Warrants to be exercised and freely tradable
     shares issued.  During the period ended October 6, 1995, 84,000 warrants
     have been exercised.

(2)  ISSUANCE OF 150,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.  The Company currently
     has an effective Registration Statement (Registration No. 33-89398)
     covering the issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock to fund the
     settlement of the class action litigation.  The Company issued 150,000
     shares of Common Stock to fund the settlement on September 28, 1995, the
     end of its second quarter.  These shares will initially be valued at $3.00
     per share (subject to adjustment to market at the time of the actual
     distribution, may be higher than $3.00 per share.)

(3)  PRIVATE PLACEMENT.  The Company has several parities who have
     indicated an interest in acquiring a stock position in the Company.  The
     Company is taking the steps necessary to complete a Private Placement of
     278,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a price of $2.25 per
     share.  The prospective shareholders are all "accredited investors." 
     During the period ended October 6, 1995, 188,000 Common Shares have been
     sold.
