Pursuant to a Board of Directors meeting held on February 20, 1997, Registrant
determined that it would be in its best interest to eliminate all
relationships which resulted in partially interlocking directorates of
Registrant and Geotech Development Corp ("Geotech"). As a result of such
decision, Registrant reorganized its Board of Directors and executive
management so that none of the officers and directors of Geotech would be
officers or directors of Registrant. The effect of such reorganization is
reflected in Items 5 and 6 below.

Effective February 20, 1997, Thomas B. West resigned as CEO of Registrant,

removed by the Board of Directors as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and
Secretary of Registrant.
The Board of Directors appointed Maurice Spatt as President, CEO and Secretary
of Registrant, and appointed Max Schmid as Treasurer and Chief Financial
Officer of Registrant.

basis to 411 Conestoga Road, #26, Devon, Pennsylvania, 19333.

void by mutual agreement of the parties, and the balance owing to Geotech of
