Item 5. Other Events
Electrosource, Inc., has temporarily ceased battery production in
its San Marcos, Texas plant. Manufacturing and support personnel
have been furloughed. The Company expects to resume full
production in the first quarter of 2001 and recall all employees.
However, as reported in the Company's most recent Form 10Q, the
Company does not generate sufficient cash flow from its current
level of business to sustain operations without supplemental
funding from Kamkorp (the Company's majority shareholder) or
other financial sources. Therefore its ability to restart
production depends upon finding suitable sources of financing.
Management is currently negotiating with several potential
funding sources. While confident that adequate funding will be
acquired in the near term, the Company can offer no assurance
that these negotiations will be successful.
