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

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.
