Company Press Release
IMA States Its Intention to Defend Unfounded Lawsuit
SHELTON, CT--Jan. 27, 2000--IMA (NASDAQ: IMAA - news) said today that a lawsuit
styled as a shareholder class action has been filed against it and two of its
officers in the U.S. District Court of Connecticut. The complaint alleges that
the Company purportedly violated federal securities laws by making materially
false and misleading statements and concealing material adverse facts during the
period between August 12, 1999 and November 18, 1999. The Company has reviewed
the complaint and believes that it is without merit. The Company intends to
defend the case vigorously.
