Item 3.
The Company is in the process of finalizing its evaluation of certain long
lived assets under SFAS 121. This evaluation will require review by the
Company's independent auditors, and will be completed shortly. The completion
of this evaluation will likely result in a charge against the Company's
results of operations in the fourth quarter of 1998. Upon resolution of these
aforementioned items, the Company anticipates completion of its annual audit
shortly thereafter.
