Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
In his original Schedule 13D dated February 23, 1998, the Reporting
Person reported beneficial ownership of 2,533,308 shares. Of the
2,533,308 shares reported, 308,400 shares were acquired pursuant to

Reduction Systems ("WRS"). The Reporting Person surrendered 78.39

by the Reporting Person were held as options or warrants which were

On June 19, 1998, the Issuer effected a one-for-four reverse split of

complete list of grant dates and exercise prices for the options and

options to acquire 12.5% of the Issuer's fully diluted ownership,
which vests after the Company achieves six consecutive months with
EBITDA in excess of a total of $600,000. The purpose of the grant of
options was to allow Mr. Fagan to maintain at least 12.5% control of
the Issuer despite any dilution that may occur through the conversion
of convertible securities, the exercise of options or warrants, or the
issuance of new shares through June of 2000.
