Statements made in this Press Release that are not historical or current facts
are "forward-looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of
federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements represent management's best
judgment as to what may occur in the future, but are subject to certain risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ
materially from those presently anticipated or projected. Such factors include
adverse economic conditions, entry of new and stronger competitors, inadequate
capital, unexpected costs, and failure to capitalize upon access to new
clientele. Additional risks and uncertainties which may affect forward-looking
statements about the Company's Y2K One business and prospects include the
possibility that a competitor will develop a more comprehensive or less
expensive Y2K solution, and delays in market awareness of TAVA and its product
