NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
MARCH 31, 1997 AND 1996
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.
It is suggested that these unaudited condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated statement of
deficiency in net assets available in liquidation and changes in deficiency in
net assets available in liquidation at March 31, 1997 and for all periods
presented herein have been made.
B - Liquidation of business
On October 24, 1991, the Company announced that the Board of Directors
of Gobi-Primak, Inc., ("Gobi"), its principal operating subsidiary, determined
there were no further sources of capital available to meet the severe working
capital shortages faced by Gobi, and announced it intended to explore various
alternatives, including the sale of Gobi.
On November 5, 1991, Fleet Credit Corporation ("Fleet"), sent
Gobi-Primak, Inc. a letter of an event of default under the loan agreement,
demanding immediate repayment of all sums outstanding under the loan agreement.
The Company entered into an arrangement with Fleet, whereby Fleet would take
peaceful possession of all of Gobi's assets and begin the orderly liquidation of
Gobi's assets.
Fleet immediately appointed a liquidator, Alco Capital, to supervise the
liquidation of all of Gobi's assets. In 1992, all the assets of Gobi had been
liquidated.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF DEFICIENCY IN NET ASSETS
AVAILABLE IN LIQUIDATION
In the third quarter of 1994, the Company settled a disagreement with
subordinated note holders. The subordinated note holders are being paid through
June 1, 1999. The principal of approximately $184,000 is included in the
Consolidated Statement of Deficiency in Net Assets in Liquidation. These
obligations have been personally guaranteed by a director of the Company. The
director is currently satisfying the notes, and as payments are made, the
Company will have an obligation to repay the director. The director has the
option to pledge certain securities to the payees of these notes, in which event
the Company shall be released of all obligations to those payees.
During 1992, the Company's bank, Fleet Credit Corporation completed the
liquidation of Gobi's assets and generated funds to reduce the note payable to
the bank by approximately $1,400,000.
There are no assets available for disbursement to unsecured creditors.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
On November 5, 1991 the Company was notified by Fleet Credit
Corporation ("Fleet") that an Event of Default existed under its Amended and
Restated Revolving Credit Loan Agreement dated as of April 25, 1989. The
Company's Board of Directors elected to turn over all of Gobi's assets to Fleet
for liquidation on a peaceful possession basis. Fleet immediately began the
liquidation of Gobi's assets. In 1992, all the assets of Gobi had been
liquidated.
