ITEM 5.

     On February 10, 1997,  the Company voluntarily filed for relief under 
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code").  The 
petition was filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern 
District of California - the San Jose Division (the "Court") and was 
assigned case number 97-5-1077.  The Company is operating as 
debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code. The Company has limited 
capital available for reorganization and is seeking a strategic relationship 
or capital infusion for such purpose.  Any trading of the Company's stock at 
this time should be considered highly speculative.

          On January 15, 1998, the Company entered into a Loan and Security 
Agreement (the "Agreement") with Asset Recovery Group, LLC, a Colorado 
limited liability company  ("ARG") pursuant to which the Company may borrow 
in increments up to $600,000. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement will bear 
interest at a rate of 10% per annum and will have a super priority status and 
will be secured by all of the assets of the Company once the Company has 
borrowed the entire $600,000. The Court had previously approved the borrowing 
of $158,000 of funds under the Agreement as an interim bridge loan and on 
February 25, 1998 the Court signed an order granting final approval of the 
entire $600,000 borrowing and related Agreement. Mr. Donald G. Marquart a 
former co-founder, officer and director and current shareholder of the 
Company is a co-manager of ARG and an investor in ARG.  The funds will be 
utilized to fund limited operations until a Plan of Reorganization jointly 
developed with the lender can be prepared, funded and confirmed. There can 
be no assurance that that adequate funding will be obtained from ARG to fund 
the entire Agreement or to adequately fund a Plan of Reorganization.  The 
Company will pay a 10% finder's fee on the amounts borrowed under the 
Agreement.
