3.       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

         This Amended Schedule 13D has been filed with respect to an aggregate
of two hundred seventy-five thousand seven hundred (275,700) shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock held by Triglova at November 30, 1996 and purchased
by Triglova for aggregate consideration of approximately Six Hundred Fifty-Seven
Thousand Dollars ($657,000). The source of funds used in making Triglova's
purchases was Triglova's working capital.

4.       PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Triglova holds the 209,500 shares of Common Stock owned by it, as of
January 9, 1997, for investment purposes. Triglova may acquire additional shares
of Common Stock for investment purposes from time to time, although it does not
have any present plans to do so.

         Triglova has no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:
any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or
liquidation involving the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation; the
sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Corporation or any of its
subsidiaries; any change in the Corporation's present Board of Directors or
management; any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy
of the Corporation; any material change in the Corporation's business or
corporate structure; any changes in the Corporation's charter, bylaws, or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Corporation by any person; a class of securities
of the Corporation being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing
to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association; a class of equity securities of the
Corporation becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or any
similar action.

5.       INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Triglova has the sole power to direct the vote or disposition of the
209,500 shares of the Common Stock of the Corporation owned by Triglova. That
power is exercised through Triglova's directors and officer.

         The 209,500 shares of Common Stock that Triglova owns represents
approximately 6.7% of that class of securities. The calculation of the
percentage of the class of Common Stock is based upon the 3,129,072 shares of
Common Stock reported by the Corporation as outstanding as of November 12, 1996
in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September
30, 1996.
