Item 9. Sales Of Equity Securities Pursuant To Regulation S
A. The Company issued a $200,000 convertible debenture in November 1996 under
the provisions of Regulation S promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("Regulation S"). In November 1996, the investor, a foreign
company, elected to convert the principal and accrued interest on the
debenture into 1,001,151 common shares, at $0.20 per share. (The debenture's
conversion price was 60% of the market price of the stock, as defined, on the
date of conversion, but was subject to a minimum conversion price of $0.20 per
share.) In recognition of a reduction in the market price of the Company's
common stock, on December 19, 1996 the Company and the investor amended the
original terms of the debenture to reflect no minimum conversion price. The
closing bid price of the Company's common stock on December 19, 1996 was $0.18
per share. Using that price and the debenture's revised conversion formula,
the Company will issue approximately 1,000,000 additional common shares to the
foreign investor on conversion of the debenture. The additional shares will
also be issued under the provisions of Regulation S. The Company received no
additional consideration for the additional shares; however, the Company is
continuing to negotiate issuance of convertible debentures to other foreign
investors through Alexander, Wescott & Co., Inc. ("Wescott"), the placement
agent for the debentures.
B. The conversion terms for any similar debentures issued through Wescott
will continue to have a 40% discount from market with no minimum conversion
price. However, the shares may not be issued for less than the $0.10 par
value of the common stock.
C. The closing market bid price of the Company's common stock on December 19,
1996 was $0.18 per share.
