Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant.

      A change in control of the Registrant occurred on September 28, 1999 (the
"Effective Time") pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan
of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of August 20, 1999 between the
Registrant, New Millennium Multimedia, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("NM"), Grace
Newco, Inc., a Georgia corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant
("Merger Sub") and Signal Compression, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Signal").
The Merger Agreement provided for the merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with
and into NM, with NM as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, NM
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant and the former shareholders
of NM received an aggregate of 66,223,329 or 89.70% of the outstanding shares of
the common stock, no par value, of the Registrant (the "Common Stock").
Effective as of the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Registrant
(the "Board"), which, prior to the Effective Time, was composed of Jacob
Barrocas as sole director, increased the size of the Board from one to six
members and the following persons were elected to the Board: Louis Friedman,
Richard S. Granville, III, Ronald McCallum, Dr. Lee Silverstein and Peter
Tierney (the "NM Designees"). Information with respect to the NM Designees,
including beneficial ownership of the Common Stock by such NM Designees, is
included in the Registrant's Information Statement pursuant to Section 14(f) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and Rule
14f-1 thereunder, filed by the Registrant on August 27, 1999, as amended on
September 24, 1999 and October 7, 1999 (the "Information Statement"), which is
incorporated herein by this reference. All references to the terms of the Merger
Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement,
which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference.

      At a meeting of the Board held on September 30, 1999, the Board voted to
increase the size of the Board to seven persons and elected James Blanchard to
the Board. The Board also elected the following persons to the offices set forth
opposite their names:

      Louis Friedman                      Chairman of the Board
      Richard S. Granville, III           Chief Executive Officer
      James Blanchard                     President
      Ronald McCallum                     Chief Financial Officer and Secretary

      Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, certain shares of Common Stock held by
Signal, which prior to the Merger held approximately 66% of the Common Stock and
following the Merger holds approximately 6.77% of the Common Stock, were pledged
to NM (the "Pledge Agreement") to secure certain indemnification obligations of
the Issuer to NM and the former shareholders of NM (the "Indemnitees"). The
terms of the Pledge Agreement provide for the release of a number of pledged
shares equal to one percent (1%) of the outstanding Common Stock on the Initial
Release Date and on each subsequent Release Date (each as defined in the Pledge
Agreement); provided that (a) no default has occurred and is continuing under
the Pledge Agreement); (b) the pledged shares remaining as collateral are
sufficient to satisfy the aggregate of claims made as of the Initial Release
Date or the Release Date, as the case may be; or (c) the pledgees shall not have
determined that a release of pledged shares would have an adverse


                                       2
<PAGE>

impact on the market or trading activity for the Common Stock. Under the Pledge
Agreement, the Initial Release Date occurs thirty (30) days following the
effective date of the Merger and Release Dates occur at quarterly intervals
thereafter until the termination of the Pledge Agreement. The Pledge Agreement
terminates on the later of (i) eighteen months following the effective time of
the Merger and (ii) the resolutions of all indemnification claims made by the
Indemnitees under the Merger Agreement. All references to the terms of the
Pledge Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Pledge
Agreement, which is attached as an exhibit to the Merger Agreement, filed as
Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

      Because the shares of Common Stock received by the former shareholders of
NM were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
such shares are "restricted securities" (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated
under the Act) and accordingly, may not be sold or transferred by the holders
thereof unless such shares are registered under the Act or are sold or
transferred pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

      On September 28, 1999, the Merger was consummated in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant thereto, Merger Sub, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Registrant, was merged with and into NM, with NM as
the surviving corporation. Following the Merger, NM became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Registrant. In consideration for the Merger, the former
shareholders of NM received 66.3013 shares of Common Stock for each share of NM
Common Stock (the "Merger Consideration"). As a result thereof, the former
shareholders of NM now beneficially own an aggregate of 66,223,329
(approximately 89.70%) of the outstanding Common Stock. The Merger Consideration
was determined in arms' length negotiations between the parties to the Merger
Agreement. Prior to the consummation of the Merger, there were no material
relationships between NM and its former officers, directors, affiliates,
associates or shareholders and the officers, directors, affiliates, associates
or shareholders of the Registrant. As described in Item 1 of this Report, upon
consummation of the Merger, the NM Designees were elected to the Board and
certain officers of NM were elected officers of the Registrant. The response to
Item 1 of this Report is incorporated herein by this reference.

      The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is being
filed as an exhibit to this report. In addition, the Registrant's Information
Statement and Report on Form 8-K dated August 20, 1999, which reported the
announcement of the execution of the Merger Agreement, is incorporated herein
and made a part hereof by this reference.

      As a result of the Merger, the Registrant is a holding company for NM. NM,
doing business as Avana (www.avana.net), is an integrated communications
provider based in Atlanta, Georgia. In addition to providing internet services
to approximately 5,400 internet subscribers, Avana is seeking to become a
"bundled services" communications provider offering an array of communications
and related services, including, but not limited to, local dial tone, intra- and


                                       3
<PAGE>

inter-state access, long distance, enhanced services, Internet, data private
lines, frame relay, ATM (asynchronous transfer mode), calling cards, wireless
and other communications services. Avana utilizes several network provides,
including ICG Communications and Qwest Communications. Avana also has an ongoing
relationship with Lucent Technologies for network solutions and implementation
services.

                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for Grace Development, Inc. ("Grace") for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 1998 give retroactive
effect to the acquisition of Avana Communications, Inc. ("Avana") by New
Millennium Multimedia, Inc. ("NMM") as if they had occurred on January 1, 1998.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations do not
purport to be indicative of the actual results of operations of Grace had the
acquisition been completed at the beginning of the respective periods, and
should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited financial statements of Grace
and the audited financial statements of Avana and NMM and the related notes
thereto.

On May 5, 1999 NMM completed its acquisition of Avana. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Statement
No. 16 "Business Combinations". Total consideration included the issuance of
97,824 shares of NMM stock later converted to 6,485,858 shares of Grace Stock,
and cash of $364,000. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded
goodwill of approximately $533,000, which is being amortized, on a straight-line
basis over five years.
