some of the same investors from the February financing. As a result of this
transaction, outside investors and Poly Ventures L.P.I provided total financing
of $400,000 in cash in exchange for 3,200,000 shares ($.125 per share)of the
Company's Common Stock. Pursuant to this agreement, Poly Ventures L.P.I agreed

Stock at a price of $.125 per share (2,800,000 shares). In addition, the
Company also issued warrants, valid for a period of five years, to purchase
2,571,429 shares of the Company's Common Stock at the price of $.178 per share.

to the February 13, 1992 investors pursuant to the antidilution provisions of
the investment agreement and such additional shares are reflected as
outstanding shares at December 31, 1992.
E. CESSATION OF BUSINESS
As of August 6, 1993, The Board of Directors determined that in view
of working capital deficiencies, lack of demand for the Company's electronic
transaction terminal, the large additional capital investment required to
continue operations, and in order to preserve remaining capital resources of
the Company, to immediately cease all ongoing operations of the Company except
for any activity necessary to preserve corporate integrity, assets and capital.
Presently, the Company is seeking a suitable merger or acquisition
partner that can utilize the Company's corporate structure and its propriety
technology. However, there is no assurance that a suitable merger or
acquisition partner can be found.
