facilities located in Lancaster, California and Elkhart, Indiana. The
Company's corporate offices are located at its Lancaster facility in
California. The Company's controller left the Company on January 31, 1997

the change in financial personnel the Company's auditors were not able to
furnish the financial information needed to file the Company's Form 10-K.

The Company and the auditors have not resolved accounting differences on
inventory balances, which may result in a significant decrease or possible
increase in earnings compared to the corresponding period for the last fiscal
year. These differences are unresolved at the date of this filing. For this
reason, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the results of operations.
