                                VISION TEN, INC.
                                     PART I
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
 
  Business Development
 
     Vision Ten, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized in 1989 (the 'Company'),
is engaged in the medical film digitizing business. The Company currently
manufactures and markets a single product, specifically a medium priced,
full-fidelity, full-featured solid state film digitizer.
 
     On May 19, 1994, the Company had approximately 53% of its outstanding
capital stock acquired by Cybernetics Products, Inc. ('CPI'), a corporation
engaged in the development, manufacturing and marketing of products and systems
utilized in the electronics, printed circuit board, electronic imaging and
photography markets, in exchange for approximately 185,000 shares of CPI's
common stock, of which the Company received approximately 105,000 shares (the
'CPI Acquisition'). In connection with the CPI Acquisition, the Company granted
CPI an 18 month option (the 'Option') exercisable at $.10 per share to acquire
such additional number of shares of the Company's Common Stock as would then be
required to provide the holder thereof with beneficial ownership of 80% of the
Company's outstanding capital stock. The Option expired on November 18, 1996.
 
     On March 28, 1996, ('The Partnership') through a reduction in intercompany
indebtedness between Oxberry, LLC, a New Jersey company owned by ('The
Partnership') and Dr. Thumim, and The Company, acquired 9,956,936 shares of The
Company's common stock giving it approximately 81% ownership of The Company See
Item 12 'Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management' and
Item 13 'Certain Relationships and Related Transactions'.
 
     On April 3, 1995, the shares of the Company's outstanding capital stock
owned by CPI were sold together with the Option referred to above to Alfred I.
Thumim as nominee for a limited partnership formed as the Thumim Family
Partnership L.P. (the 'Partnership') for $103,000 in addition to the assumption
of certain liabilities (the Stock Sale). Alfred I. Thumim is the President and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company and sole General Partner of the
Partnership.
 
BUSINESS OF ISSUER
 
  Imaging Technology
 
     Medical diagnostic imaging systems are based upon the ability of energy
waves to penetrate human tissue and to be detected by either photographic film
or electronic devices for presentation of an image on a video monitor.
 
     When a digitizer captures an X-ray film image it uses a sensor, such as a
charged-coupled device ('CCD'), to break the image being scanned into a series
of pixels (dots), which are then converted to digital signals and sent to a
computer's memory. The more pixels into which the image is divided, the more
accurate the scanned image will appear when viewed on a monitor, and the more
effective image enhancement can be to the viewer.

 
     The Company's third generation CCD 12-bit film digitizer is the medium used
to transfer high quality X-ray film images to a video monitor for diagnostic and
clinical review.
 
     The uniqueness of the Company's X-ray film digitizer resides in its
patented techniques for its diffuse film illumination light source and an
accurate density measurement of 3.5, which meets the industry acceptable
requirement for faithful reproduction of X-ray films. This patented capability
affords the Company the opportunity to favorably compete with more expensive
laser digitizers.
 
  Principal Products
 
     X-Ray Film Digitizer: The Company, in the latter half of 1992, extracted
the X-ray film digitizer component from its Rita!(Registered) system and began
to engineer and manufacture a high resolution X-ray film digitizer to be
marketed as an original equipment manufacture ('OEM') product for inclusion in
other companies' medical and industrial X-ray imaging computer systems.
 
                                       1
<PAGE>
     The digitizer produced by the Company is capable of digitizing an entire
chest-sized X-ray film (14'x17') at what management believes, based upon its
experience in the marketplace and upon discussions with customers, is one of the
highest resolution digitizers commercially available today: 3,373 by 4,000
pixels over a 14'x17' film. The digitizer is capable of sensing each pixel's
light level and translating it into one of approximately 4,096 levels of gray
for each pixel, representing changes in film density from approximately 0.0 to
3.5+ to correspond with the dynamic range of the majority of X-ray films in the
medical market. Image quality is comparable to the laser scanning processes.
Management believes this technology also offers many unique advantages,
including speed of scanning, spot size, cost to acquire, and cost to maintain.
 
  Principal Markets
 
     The markets in which the Company's product is used are principally
teleradiology, telemedicine and X-ray archival and storage. In the teleradiology
and telemedicine markets the scanner's ability to convert the image on an X-ray
or mammogram to digital data is used to transmit the data over communication
channels to remote computers for use by radiologists and medical consultants.
The ability of the scanner to convert the X-rays and mammogram to digital form
is also used to store these images on a variety of electronic media devices for
quick retrieval by computer systems. These markets are growing and are
competitive with the current emphasis of making the delivery of medical services
more efficient and cost effective using computer technology.
 
  Government Regulation
 
     The Company's X-ray film digitizer is subject to Federal regulations
monitored and enforced by the United States Food and Drug Administration
('FDA'). The film digitizer is considered a Class II device under the Medical
Devices Amendment of 1976 to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which means the
digitizer is substantially equivalent to products already on the market for FDA

regulatory purposes. Companies who manufacture Class II devices are subject to
pre-marketing notification requirements. These requirements include annual
registration, listing of devices, maintenance of good manufacturing practices,
labeling, prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration, and notification of
injuries. Management believes these requirements will not materially affect the
operations of the Company. The Company believes it has complied with all FDA
pre-market notification requirements related to the X-ray film digitizer.
 
  Manufacturing and Sources of Supply
 
     Manufacturing efforts, with respect to the Company's X-ray film digitizer,
consist mostly of assembly of standard industry items available from multiple
sources including an affiliate, Oxberry LLC, which has a fully integrated
manufacturing facility and Company-designed components manufactured by outside
service firms. The Company has not experienced any significant delays with
regard to availability or supply of any parts or components. Management believes
there are many source firms that could manufacture the Company-designed
components. The Company has no employees and receives assembly labor as well as
engineering personnel and software consultants on an 'as needed' basis from an
affiliate, Oxberry LLC, owned by the Partnership and General Partner, Alfred I.
Thumim. See 'Business Development' above.
 
  Proprietary Protection
 
     The Company presently holds two patents for significant components of its
X-ray film digitizer. There can be no assurance the Company's products will not
infringe upon any patents or rights of others.
 
  Marketing and Sales
 
     Utilizing its own commissioned marketing and sales personnel, the Company
markets its digitizers to OEMs' and system integrators. To meet customer
requirements, the Company provides such potential customers with film digitizers
for an evaluation period of approximately 30 to 90 days. At the end of the
evaluation period, the digitizer is either returned or purchased. It has been
the experience of the Company that a majority of the digitizers are purchased,
integrated with the OEM's technology and forms the start of a continuing
relationship.
 
     The Company generally warrants its products for one year with warranty
service, if required, performed by personnel from an affiliate, Oxberry LLC.
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
     Two customers accounted for approximately 75% and three customers accounted
for approximately 55% of the company's sales during the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995 respectively.
 
  Competition
 
     In the primary markets in which the Company sells X-ray film digitizers,
the major competitors are the Truvel division of The Vidar Corporation and
Lumisys, Inc., both of which have greater financial and managerial resources
than does the Company.

 
     Management believes the principal competitive factors for its product are
price, image quality, maintenance costs, reliability and speed of the equipment
as compared to the other competing products currently available in the
marketplace. Management believes the Company's digitizer is currently positioned
to compete favorably in each of the aforementioned respects.
 
  Research and Development
 
     To further enhance its existing products and technologies, the Company
utilizes the personnel resources of an affiliate, Oxberry LLC. Emphasis is
placed upon improved design of the Company's current product and introduction of
new products.
 
  Environmental Regulation Compliance
 
     Compliance with federal, state and local provisions regulating the
discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the
protection of the environment, does not have any material effect upon the
capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.
 
  Employees
 
     At December 31, 1996, there were no employees of the Company. The company
utilizes trained and qualified employees on an 'as needed' basis from an
affiliate, Oxberry LLC.
 
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
 
     As a result of the CPI Acquisition, the Company's manufacturing operation
was relocated to Carlstadt, NJ in April 1994, with Oxberry LLC. The Company
utilizes the manufacturing and administrative support of Oxberry LLC on an 'as
needed' basis.

    expense allocated to the Company in connection with its use of this leased
    space, approximated $8,000 which The Company believes this rental is
    comparable to that which could be obtained from an unaffilated third party.
    This amount is part of the advances making up the intercompany indebtedness
    due from The Company to Oxberry, LLC. See Item 13 'Certain Relationships and
    Related Transactions'. Prior to December 1996 the Company leased 200 square
    feet of a facility located in Los Angeles, CA for it's sales and marketing

    operations for monthly rent payments of $400. This lease was cancelled in
    November 1996 and the Company moved it's sales and marketing operations into
    the Carlstadt, NJ location.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS
 
GENERAL
 
     Vision Ten, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized in 1989 (the 'Company'),
is engaged in the medical film digitizing business. The Company currently
manufactures and markets a single product, specifically a medium priced,
full-fidelity, full-featured solid state film digitizer.
 
     On May 19, 1994, the Company had approximately 53% of its outstanding
capital stock acquired by Cybernetics Products, Inc. ('CPI'), a corporation
engaged in the development, manufacturing and marketing of products and systems
utilized in the electronics, printed circuit board, electronic imaging and
photography
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
markets, in exchange for approximately 185,000 shares of CPI's common stock, of
which the Company received approximately 105,000 shares (the 'CPI Acquisition').
In connection with the CPI Acquisition, the Company granted CPI an 18 month
option (the 'Option') to acquire such additional number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock as would then be required to provide the holder thereof
with beneficial ownership of 80% of the Company's outstanding capital stock. The
Option, exercisable immediately upon grant at a price of $.10 per share, expires
on November 18, 1995.

 
     On April 3, 1995, the shares of the Company's outstanding capital stock
owned by CPI were sold together with the Option to Alfred I. Thumim as nominee
for a limited partnership to be formed as the Thumim Family Partnership L. P.
(the Partnership), an entity controlled by the President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, for $103,000 in addition to the assumption of certain
liabilities.
 
     On March 28, 1996, ('The Partnership') through a reduction in intercompany
indebtedness between Oxberry, LLC, a New Jersey company owned by ('The
Partnership') and Dr. Thumim, and The Company, acquired 9,956,936 shares of The
Company's common stock giving it approximately 81% ownership of The Company. See
Item 12 'Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management' and
Item 13 'Certain Relationships and Related Transactions'.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
 
     Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996 were $502,000., compared to
revenues of $455,000. for the corresponding period in 1995. The increase in
revenue is a direct result of serveral large orders placed and shipped during
the first quarter of 1996, in order to replenish the inventory needs of several
customers.
 
     Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 1996 were $432,000 or 86% of
revenues, compared to $361,000 or 79% of revenues for the corresponding period
in 1995. The increase in cost of sales percentage in 1996 compared to 1995 is
primarily a result of increased costs of materials used in the Company products.
 
     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December
31, 1996 were $116,000, compared to $201,000 for the corresponding period in
1995. The reduction of these expenses is attributable to the Company's
elimination of the Sales and Marketing branch in Los Angeles, CA, during the
year as well as a reduction in facility costs.
 
     Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 1996 were
$33,000., compared to $0 for the corresponding period in 1995. The Company
increased it's research and development efforts during the year in order to
improve produce quality and decrease material costs.
 
     For the reasons set forth above, net loss for the year ended December 31,
1996 was $80,000, compared to a net loss of $107,000 for the corresponding
period in 1995.
 
  Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
     The Company's principal source of cash flow is the collection of customer's
accounts receivables and cash flow from operations. Such sources of cash have
been sufficient to fund the Company's cash flow needs to date. Additionally, the
Company has received the benefit of shared services from an affiliate, Oxberry
LLC. Allocations for rent, telephone and utilities were based upon an agreed
upon percentage. Approximately $121,500. and $135,000. were allocated by the
affiliate for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively.

 
     To the extent required, the Company's Chief Executive officer was committed
to fund operations to the extent that the Company's operating cash flows are not
sufficient in 1997.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Vision Ten, Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Vision Ten, Inc. as of
December 31, 1996 and the related statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the two years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Vision Ten, Inc. as of December
31, 1996 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
 
1. THE COMPANY
 
     Vision Ten, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized in 1989 (the 'Company'),
is engaged in the medical film digitizing business. The Company currently
manufactures and markets a single product, specifically a medium priced,
full-fidelity, full-featured solid state film digitizer.
 
     On May 19, 1994, the Company had approximately 53% of its outstanding
capital stock acquired by Cybernetics Products, Inc. ('CPI'), a corporation
engaged in the development, manufacturing and marketing of products and systems
utilized in the electronics, printed circuit board, electronic imaging and
photography markets, in exchange for approximately 185,000 shares of CPI's
common stock, of which the Company received approximately 105,000 shares (the
'CPI Acquisition'). In connection with the CPI acquisition, the Company granted
CPI an 18 month option (the 'Option') to acquire such additional number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock as would then be required to provide the
holder thereof with beneficial ownership of 80% of the Company's outstanding
capital stock. The Option was exercisable immediately upon grant at a price of
$.10 per share and expired on November 18, 1995. No options were exercised prior
to the expiration.
 
     On April 3, 1995, the shares of the Company's outstanding capital stock
owned by CPI were sold together with the option referred to above to Alfred I.
Thumin as nominee for a limited partnership formed as the Thumin Family
Partnership L. P. (The 'Stock Sale'), for $103,000 in addition to the assumption
of certain liabilities. Alfred I Thumin is the president and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company.
 
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Basis of Presentation
 
     INVENTORIES. Inventories, consisting of raw materials ($138,069) and
finished goods ($179,438) are stated at lower of cost (first-in, first-out
basis) or market.
 
     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT. Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation and amortization are provided principally by the straight-line
method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets.
 
     REVENUE RECOGNITION. The Company generally records revenue from the sale of
its product at the time of shipment.
 
     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development costs are charged to
operations in the period incurred.
 
     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand
and on deposit and highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of
three month or less.

 
     INCOME TAXES. As a result of changes in control of the Company which
occurred during 1994 and again in 1995, the amount of the Company's net
operating losses that may be utilized for federal income tax purposes in the
aggregate and in any one year, has been substantially reduced. For financial
reporting purposes, the deferred tax asset related to such net operating losses
has been fully offset by a valuation allowance as there can be no certainty such
net operating losses will be fully utilized.
 
     INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE INFORMATION. Net income (loss) per common share is
calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
each year.
 
     The weighted average number of shares to compute net loss per share was
14,534,160 and 7,978,529 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, which average excludes escrowed shares (see Note 5).
 
     ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that effect the reported amount of assets and

liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The carrying values of cash, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values
due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.
 
3. NOTE PAYABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS
 
     A.  Shareholder Advances. Through December 31, 1994, the Company had
         received operating advances from its majority shareholder, CPI, in
         addition to an advance payable of $93,000 related to the recording of
         the 53% sale to CPI. In connection with the Stock Sale on April 3,
         1995, the shareholder advance of $373,000 has been forgiven by CPI.
 
     B. Note Payable to Shareholder. Subsequent to the CPI Acquisition, a
        $650,000 note payable was assigned to CPI. In connection with the Stock
        Sale, the $650,000 non-interest bearing note has been assigned by CPI to
        Alfred I. Thumin, as nominee, for a limited partnership formed as the
        Thumin Partnership L.P. The holder of the note will not pursue
        collection of the note for through January 15, 1998.
 
4. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 
     The company maintains a deferred profit-sharing plan (i.e. a 401K plan)
covering all employees. Contributions to the plan are at the discretion of the
Board of Directors. There were no contributions to the plan in either 1996 or
1995.
 
5. STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
 
     In 1991, the Company sold 570,475 units to the public at $9.00 per unit,
each unit consisting of three shares of common stock and two redeemable common
stock purchase warrants. Each warrant entitled the holder to purchase, at any
time over a five year period through November 1996, one share of common stock at
a price of $4.00 per share during the first 30 months, and $5.00 per share
during the remaining 30 months. The warrant prices are subject to adjustment
under certain circumstances and subject to redemption at $.05 per warrant.
Proceeds from the sale were reduced by $1,060,081 in offering costs.
 
     Certain directors, officers and principal stockholders of the Company have
placed an aggregate of 716,667 shares of common stock of the Company in escrow
for a six-year term. The shares will be released from escrow and returned to the
stockholders if certain levels of earnings or a certain level of market price
for the Company's common stock are achieved. Earnings (loss) per share
calculations reflect the contingently issuable shares, which are not considered
to be outstanding for any periods presented. In exchange for the shareholders
agreement to escrow shares, the Company has issued warrants to purchase a total
of 354,727 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.57 per share. In
connection with the CPI Acquisition, 174,162 warrants were canceled. During
1992, the Company issued additional warrants to purchase 202,313 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $2.57 per share. These warrants which are
exercisable immediately expire in February 1997.
 
     In 1991, the Company issued warrants to unaffiliated third parties to
purchase 198,000 shares of common stock at $.60 per share which expired in 1996.
No warrants were exersised.
 
     In May 1994, prior to the exchange of shares related to CPI Acquisition, a
former president of the Company converted a note payable issued by the Company
in the original principal amount of $41,000 into 220,154 shares of common stock
of the Company. Concurrent with the above noted transaction, the former
president relinquished rights to acquire 215,458 shares of the Company's common
stock.

                     YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
 
5. STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT--(CONTINUED)

     In May 1994, the Company consummated the CPI Acquisition in exchange for
approximately 185,000 shares of CPI common stock shares, of which the Company
received approximately 105,000 shares and CPI acquired an approximately 53%

equity interest in the Company. In connection with the exchange of shares by and
between the Company and CPI, a certain shareholder of the Company forgave a note
payable, made by the Company in the original principal amount of $200,000 and
all related accrued interest in exchange for a note receivable held by the
Company in the original principal amount of $107,000 and 25,000 shares of CPI
common stock. Additionally, in connection with the exchange of shares by and
between the Company and CPI, another principal shareholder of the Company agreed
to reduce a note payable held by the Company in the original principal amount by
$150,000 and forgave all related accrued interest. Also, certain deferred
compensation payable by the Company in the approximate amount of $59,000 was
waived by certain current and former officers of the Company. The above
transactions result in the recognition of a $379,000 extraordinary gain due to
the early extinguishment of debt. Conditional upon the consummation of the
exchange of shares by and between the Company and CPI, the Company obtained
$128,000 of trade payable reductions from certain vendors. The related discounts
have been recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative
expenses. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, CPI received an
option to acquire up to 80% equity interest in the Company.
 
     In April 1995, the shares of the Company's outstanding capital stock owned
by CPI were sold together with the Option to Alfred I. Thumin, as nominee for a
limited partnership formed as the Thumin Family Partnership, L.P. for $103,000,
in addition to the assumption of certain liabilities. Alfred I. Thumin is the
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
 
     In 1996, the Company issued 3,121,300 shares of common stock to an entity
controlled by one of the Company's significant stockholders for administrative
services rendered to the Company by this affiliate. The shares were valued at
their approximate fair market value. Charges reflected in the statement of
operations aggregated $75,000 with respect to these transactions in 1996.
 
6. STOCK OPTION PLAN
 
     The Company's 1989 Stock Option Plan (the '1989 Plan') was adopted by the
Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company on February 28, 1989 and
March 30, 1989 respectively. The Plan provides for granting of 300,000 options
which are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and 75,000 options which are
not intended to meet the requirements of such section. 375,000 shares of common
stock are reserved for issuance upon exercise of the option granted under the
Plan. Options to purchase shares may be granted under the Plan to persons who,
in the case of incentive stock options, are full-time employees including
officers) of the Company, or, in the case of non-statutory stock options, are
employees, consultants or nonemployee directors of the Company. These options
vest over three years and expire five years from the date of the grant.
 
     Options to acquire 26,100 shares of the Company's common stock have been
granted and are outstanding under the 1989 Plan. As a result of the CPI
Acquisition, all rights to non-vested options under the 1989 Plan were canceled.
 
     The Company's 1992 Stock Option Plan (the '1992 Plan') was adopted by the
Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company on March 5, 1992 and
August 5, 1992, respectively. The 1992 Plan provides for granting 650,000
options which may or may not meet the requirements of Section 422A of the

Internal Revenue Code. 650,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance
upon exercise of the option granted under the 1992 Plan. Options to purchase
shares may be granted under the 1992 Plan to persons who, in the case of
incentive stock options, are full-time employees (including officers) of the
Company, or, in the case of non statutory stock options, are employees,
consultants, or nonemployee directors of the Company.

6. STOCK OPTION PLAN--(CONTINUED)

     Options to acquire 30,000 shares of the Company's common stock have been
granted and are outstanding under the 1992 Plan. At December 31, 1996, all of
the granted options, none of which have been exercised, were exercisable at an
exercise price of $.25 per share. As a result of the CPI Acquisition, all rights
to non-vested options under the 1992 Plan were canceled.
 
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
     Pursuant to a management agreement in place between the Company and an
affiliate, the Company was allocated expenditures related to salaries, rent,
telephone, and utilities by the affiliate. The salary allocation was based on
the estimated time incurred by employees of the afiiliate on behalf of the
Company. Allocations for rent, telephone, and utilities were based on an agreed
upon percentage. Approximately $121,500 and $135,000 were allocated by the
affiliate to the Company for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
 
8. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
 
     Two customers accounted for approximately 75% and three customers accounted
for approximately 55% of the Company's sales during the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
9. PERVASIVENESS OF ESTIMATES (STANDARD DISCLOSURE REQUIRED UNDER STATEMENT OF
POSITION NO. 94-6)
 
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
