                                 EXHIBIT A
                               to Form 12b-25

            The Registrant is unable to file its annual report on Form
   20-F for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997 without unreasonable
   effort or expense, on account of the reorganization discussed below
   and a change of executive management which delayed the preparation
   and delivery of the financial information required to prepare the
   required interim financials for the Registrant's first filing of a
   Form 10-Q.  Addressing the problems which caused the delay in the
   preparation of the Registrant's Form 10-Q in turn occupied the
   resources of the Registrant required for the timely preparation of
   the Registrant's Form 20-F.  As the Registrant is a development stage
   company, the Registrant does not have the management depth to prepare
   its Form 10-Q and Form 20-F simultaneously.

            On June 17, 1997, the Registrant s 80% owned indirect
   subsidiary amalgamated with and into the Registrant s wholly owned
   subsidiary, SGI Holding Corporation Limited, a Bermuda exempted
   company ( SGIHC ).  Immediately following such amalgamation, SGIHC
   amalgamated with and into the Registrant.  As part of the general
   reorganization of the Registrant, on June 17, 1997, all of the
   existing officers of the Registrant resigned and the board of
   directors of the Registrant appointed as new officers the existing
   officers of the amalgamated subsidiary.  A new Chief Financial
   Officer of the Registrant was not appointed until July 14, 1997.  The
   new financial accounting staff had not been directly involved in the
   preparation of financial statements for the Registrant and the new
   officers of the Registrant had only limited experience with the
   reporting obligations of the Registrant.  Also on June 17, 1997, the
   Registrant s headquarters were moved from Vancouver, Canada to
   Memphis, Tennessee.  Additionally, following the reorganization, the
   Registrant determined to change its auditor from a Canadian auditor
   to a U.S. auditor; however, the Registrant has not yet appointed a
   successor auditor.  The former officers of the Registrant, who
   remained in Vancouver, failed to deliver in a timely manner to the
   current officers of the Registrant, located in Memphis, the
   information repeatedly requested by them and required for the
   preparation of the Form 10-Q.  Additionally, the transitioning of the
   Registrant s auditors have prevented the Registrant from consulting
   its auditors on the preparation of interim financials, which
   increased the resources required for the preparation of the
   Registrant s Form 10-Q and drew resources away from the preparation
   of the Form 20-F.

            The inability of the current financial staff of the
   Registrant to obtain either the financial information necessary to
   prepare first Registrant's Form 10-Q and second the Form 20-F has
   prevented timely preparation of the Registrant's Form 20-F.<PAGE>
