Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
Three Month Periods ended November 30, 1999 and 1998
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheet as of
November 30, 1999, condensed statements of operations for the
three month periods ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 and the
condensed statements of cash flows for the three month periods
ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnote disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
registrant's (the Company's) Annual Report for the Fiscal Year
Ended August 31, 1999 on Form 10-KSB/A. In the opinion of
management, the accompanying condensed financial statements
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
financial position and results of operations for the periods
presented. The results of operations for the period ended
November 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for the full year.
Certain amounts in the fiscal 1999 financial statements have
been reclassified to conform with the presentation in the fiscal
2000 financial statements.
Note 2. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
per Share". Statement 128 replaced the previously reported
primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and
diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share,
basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of
options, warrants, and convertible securities. Diluted earnings
per share is very similar to the previously reported fully
diluted earnings per share. All net income (loss) per share
amounts for all periods have been presented, and where
necessary, restated to conform to the Statement 128
requirements.

Note 3. Short-Term Borrowings
The Company entered into an accounts receivable credit agreement
(the "Agreement") with a bank (the "Bank") in July 1999. The
Agreement allows for up to an 80% advance rate on eligible
receivable balances. Borrowings are secured by substantially all
assets of the Company and bear interest at the Bank's prime
lending rate plus 10%. The minimum monthly amount charged by the
Bank is the greater of interest calculated in accordance with
the immediately preceding sentence or $1,200. The Agreement
remains in effect from year to year unless terminated in writing
by the Company or the Bank. At November 30, 1999, approximately
$24,844 in principal was outstanding under the Agreement.
Note 4. Note Payable to Related Party
On April 30, 1998, the Company executed a promissory note (the
"Note") in favor of Premier Laser Systems, Inc., a California
corporation ("Premier"). Borrowings against the Note are
available to the Company in the form of periodic advances. The
maximum principal amount available under the Note is $500,000,
which principal amount outstanding, together with any and all
accrued interest, is payable the earlier of (i) written demand
by Premier or (ii) April 30, 1999. Under the terms of the Note,
borrowings bear interest at the rate of 8 1/2% per annum, are
secured by certain of the Company's assets and are subordinate
to borrowings against the accounts receivable credit line with
<PAGE>7
the Company's Bank (see Note 3). Premier also has made certain
unsecured advances to the Company which are not covered by the
Note.
At November 30, 1999, the Company had recorded approximately
$1,508,000 in principal and interest outstanding under the Note
and unsecured advances, of which approximately $183,800 of
accrued interest was included in other accrued liabilities. The
principal amount is net of, among other things, an offset for
inventory transferred to Premier pursuant to a Manufacturing
Agreement entered into between the Company and Premier (see Note
5).
In October 1999, the Company and Premier entered into a Merger
Agreement whereby, among other things, the parties have agreed
that no payments will be required with respect to amounts owing
as of August 31, 1999 under the Note and unsecured advances
during the term of the Merger Agreement (see Note 6).
Note 5. Manufacturing Agreement
In March 1999, the Company and Premier entered into a
manufacturing agreement ("Manufacturing Agreement") whereby
Premier will manufacture the majority of the Company's products.
The Manufacturing Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of:
(i) material breach by either party, which breach is not cured
within thirty (30) days written notice thereof; (ii) ninety (90)
days written notice by the Company to Premier; (iii) one hundred
eighty (180) days written notice by Premier to the Company; or
(iv) mutual written agreement of the parties.
Under the terms of the Manufacturing Agreement, among other
things, the Company charges Premier for certain inventory
transferred to Premier and Premier charges the Company for
products manufactured pursuant to the Manufacturing Agreement.
Note 6. Merger Agreement
On October 21, 1999, the Company and Premier entered into an
agreement and plan of reorganization (the "Merger Agreement"),
whereby, upon requisite shareholder approval and the
satisfaction of certain other preconditions, the Company will
become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Premier and each share of
the Company's common stock, other than any dissenting shares and
any stock then owned by Premier or its subsidiaries, will
convert into 0.80 shares of Premier's common stock. The Merger
Agreement will terminate on January 31, 2000 or earlier based on
the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Merger
Agreement. The parties are currently in discussion with
regard to an extension of time to complete the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Under the Merger
Agreement, among other things, the parties have agreed that
no payments will be required during the term of the Merger
Agreement with respect to amounts owing by the Company to
Premier as of August 31, 1999 (see Note 4).
<PAGE>8
The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has approved the
Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby,
including the acquisition of the Company, and has agreed to
submit the Merger Agreement to the Company's shareholders for
their approval.
To permit the acquisition by Premier and all other actions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Board, after
considering the terms of the Merger Agreement and an opinion
rendered by the Company's independent financial advisors as to
the fairness of Premier's offer to the shareholders of the
Company, amended the Company's Rights Agreement effective in
October 1999.
Note 7. Series B Preferred Stock and Related Agreements
The Company and Premier also executed a Series B Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement on October 21, 1999 whereby, among other
things, the Company agreed to sell to Premier, upon the issuance
by the Company of shares of its common stock pursuant to the
exercise of stock options, shares of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock at a price of $25 per share with each share
carrying the voting power of 1,000 shares of the Company's
common stock.
Also on October 21, 1999, the Company, Premier and three of the
Company's outside directors (the "exercising Directors") entered
into a stock purchase agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to
which, among other things, the Exercising Directors each
exercised options to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at
an exercise price of $0.375 per share resulting in net proceeds
to the Company of $56,250.
The stock purchased by the Exercising Directors is restricted
and subject to repurchase by the Company until the earlier of
May 9, 2000 or the Effective Date of the Company's acquisition
by Premier, as defined in the Merger Agreement (see Note 6).
Also under the terms of the Agreement, Premier purchased 150
shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock at a per share
price of $25 in exchange for Premier's cancellation of certain
of the Company's debt in the aggregate amount of $3,750. These
150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are also restricted and
subject to repurchase by the Company if the Company repurchases
any of the common stock purchased by the Exercising Directors.
As a result of the foregoing transactions, Premier owns
approximately 49 1/2% of the Company's outstanding common stock
and all 150 outstanding shares of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock, resulting in sole voting power of approximately
53%.
Note 8. Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The Company has an accumulated deficit of $13,940,175 at
November 30, 1999. In addition, current liabilities exceed
current assets by $3,772,802 as of that date. These factors,
<PAGE>9
among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to
continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
During October 1999, the Company entered into an agreement and
plan of reorganization (the "Merger Agreement") with Premier.
The Company's Board of Directors has approved the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and has
agreed to submit the Merger Agreement to the Company's
shareholders for their approval (see Note 6).
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company would need
to obtain Premier's prior consent with respect to securing
additional capital beyond that generated from operations, and
the Company has requested Premier's cooperation and assistance
in that regard. There can be no assurance, however, that any
financing arrangements for securing additional capital will be
available, and, if available, can be obtained on terms favorable
to the Company and acceptable to Premier.
In addition, as a consequence of the Merger Agreement, certain
holders of options to purchase shares of the Company's common
stock may be inclined to exercise these stock options. The
Company could receive substantial proceeds from the exercise of
these stock options; however, there can be no assurance that any
stock options will be exercised in the near term, if at all.
In the event that the transactions contemplated under the Merger
Agreement are not consummated, then the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern would be seriously jeopardized, and
would depend upon its ability to restructure payment terms
and/or obtain substantial new financing to repay its debts and
ensure continued supply of materials and services.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
federal securities laws. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to
be covered by the safe harbor provisions contained in Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in Section 21E of the Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain
assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the
Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect,"
"intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. The
Company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or
strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse
effect on its operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to,
changes in: economic conditions generally and the medical instruments market
specifically, legislative or regulatory changes affecting OIS, including changes
in healthcare regulation, the availability of working capital, the introduction
of competing products, and other risk factors described herein. These risks and
uncertainties, together with the other risks described from time to time in
reports and documents filed by OIS with the SEC should be considered in
evaluating forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed
on such statements. Indeed, it is likely that some of the Company's assumptions
will prove to be incorrect. The Company's actual results and financial position
will vary from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements, and
the variances may be material.
Overview
To date, the Company has designed, developed, manufactured and marketed
ophthalmic digital imaging systems and has derived substantially all of its
revenues from the sale of such products. The Company has a reputation within the
ophthalmic community for producing high quality, reliable, easy to use equipment
and believes itself to be an acknowledged industry leader in the technology and
sales of digital ophthalmic imaging systems. The primary target market for the
Company's digital angiography systems has been retinal specialists.
The Company is currently attempting to expand its role in the ophthalmic imaging
field by developing new ocular imaging devices and applications targeted at the
broader markets of general ophthalmology and optometry.
In this regard, commencing in fiscal year 1998, OIS has applied significant
resources to the development of two ocular imaging devices, the Digital Fundus
Imager the ("DFI") and the Digital Slit Lamp Imager (the "DSLI"). The Company is
focusing a majority of its current development, manufacturing, marketing and
sales efforts on its DFI and DSLI products, and commenced delivering these
products during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 after experiencing certain
delays.
At the 1998 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology (the "1998
AAO Meeting") held during the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the DFI received
considerable interest and the Company has received significant purchase
commitments for the product. However, the Company has limited financial and
operational resources, including manufacturing, marketing and selling capacity
<PAGE>11
to meet any significant demand resulting from the introduction of this product.
To address this situation, during the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company
entered into the Manufacturing Agreement with Premier Laser Systems, Inc. a
California corporation ("Premier"), whereby Premier began assembling and
manufacturing the Company's products, including the DFI and DSLI. Initial
deliveries of revenue generating products manufactured by Premier under the
Manufacturing Agreement were made during the third quarter of fiscal 1999. The
Company entered into the Manufacturing Agreement to reduce the cost of
manufacturing its products and to take advantage of Premier's manufacturing
capabilities, but there can be no assurance that this arrangement will provide
the Company the anticipated benefits. To date, the Company has incurred
increased costs and significant delays in deliveries of its products under the
Manufacturing Agreement.
In addition, the Company recently agreed with Premier on co-marketing and
selling arrangements whereby, among other things: (a) the Company will
distribute in the United States and Canada certain of Premier's EyeSys products;
and (b) Premier will distribute the Company's products in certain international
markets. In anticipation of these arrangements, the Company and Premier have
been selling their ophthalmic products through a jointly managed EyeSys Vision
Group, which made its debut at the American Society of Cataract and Refractive
Surgery meeting in April 1999. To date, the Company has incurred increased costs
under these arrangements and it is unclear at this time whether these
arrangements will result in significant, if any, benefit to OIS.
The Company's results of operations have historically fluctuated from quarter to
quarter and from year to year and management anticipates that such fluctuations
will continue in the future. The Company has experienced operating losses for
each fiscal year since its initial public offering in 1992. At November 30,
1999, the Company had an accumulated deficit in excess of $13 million and its
current liabilities exceeded its current assets by more than $3 million. The
Company continues to experience cash flow deficits and there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to achieve or sustain significant positive cash
flows, revenues or profitability in the future.
On February 25, 1998, the Company and Premier entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), whereby Premier would offer to buy
those shares of the Company's common stock not already owned by it. As a
condition to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to amend its
Rights Agreement to permit Premier to acquire up to 51.3% of the Company's
outstanding common stock in private purchase agreements made simultaneously with
the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
In August 1998, Premier notified that Company that, due to a variety of factors,
Premier would not be able to close the transactions contemplated under the Stock
Purchase Agreement. As a result, the Stock Purchase Agreement was terminated. As
a result of such termination, the Company made demand to Premier for payment of
a $500,000 termination fee (the "Termination Fee") as provided for in the Stock
Purchase Agreement. The Termination Fee, however, among other things, was the
subject of subsequent negotiations between the companies.
<PAGE>12
On October 21, 1999, the Company and Premier entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement") whereby, upon requisite shareholder
approval, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Premier. The
Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has approved the Merger Agreement and
the transactions contemplated thereby, including the acquisition of the Company,
and has agreed to submit the Merger Agreement to the Company's shareholder for
their approval. The Merger Agreement will terminate on January 31, 2000 or
earlier based on the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Merger
Agreement and the parties are currently in discussion with regard to an
extension of time to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement.
To permit the acquisition by Premier and all other actions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement, the Board, after considering various factors, amended the
Company's Rights Agreement effective in October 1999.
In addition, the Company and Premier entered into two stock purchase agreements
on October 21, 1999 with respect to the Company's Series B Preferred Stock
whereby, among other things, Premier purchased 150 shares of the Company's
Series B Preferred Stock with each share carrying the voting power of 1,000
shares of the Company's common stock, at a per share price of $25 in exchange
for Premier's cancellation of certain of the Company's debt in the aggregate
amount of $3,750.
As a result of the foregoing transactions, Premier currently owns 49 1/2% of the
Company's outstanding common stock and all 150 outstanding shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred Stock, thereby giving Premier majority voting
control.
The Company's results of operations have historically fluctuated from quarter to
quarter due to a number of factors and are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for any future period or expected for the fiscal year
ending August 31, 2000. There can be no assurance that revenue growth or
profitability can be achieved or sustained in the future.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
interim financial statements and the notes thereto which are set forth elsewhere
in this Report on Form 10-QSB. In the opinion of management, the unaudited
interim period financial statements include all adjustments, all of which are of
a normal recurring nature, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of the periods.
Results of Operations
The Company incurred a net loss of $692,364, or $.16 per share, for the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to a net loss of $557,362, or $.13 per share,
for the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The per share figures are basic amounts in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (see Note 2 of Notes to
Condensed Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-QSB).
The 1999 figures reflect the negative impact attributable to continuing
diversion of the Company's resources and management's attention to acquisition
matters during the period. The results of operations for the first quarter of
2000 figures reflect the adverse impact on revenues and corporate operations
resulting from delays in delivery of the Company's products associated with the
outsourcing of the manufacture and assembly of the Company's products during the
<PAGE>13
period under the Manufacturing Agreement with Premier. In addition, the Company
has incurred higher than normal costs and professional fees and expenses in
connection the contemplated transactions with Premier, while diverting a
significant amount of the Company's resources and management's attention and
selling efforts away from the Company's core operations during this period.
The results of operations do not include any amounts with respect to a potential
contingent liability in connection with the collection of taxes from the
Company's customers, which amount has been estimated on the basis of numerous
factors and assumptions that might, in the least favorable combination, reach
$1.3 million. Management believes that the probability of such an assessment is
remote and accordingly, has not recorded a liability in its financial
statements. However, there can be no assurance that the amount that might
ultimately be assessed for prior periods would not materially affect the
Company's results of operations or cash flows in any given reporting period.
The Company's revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 were $1,01,168
representing a decrease of approximately 32% from revenues of $1,490,234 for the
first quarter of fiscal 1999. The reduced revenue levels during fiscal 2000
resulted, in large part, from delays in delivery of the Company's products
associated with the outsourcing of the manufacture and assembly of the Company's
products during the period under the Manufacturing Agreement with Premier. In
addition, this reduction reflects, to some extent, the adverse impact of
management's efforts being directed to the negotiation of the Merger Agreement
with Premier during the period and less time devoted to the generation of sales.
Lastly, the fiscal 2000 first quarter revenue levels were negatively affected by
the allocation of the Company's selling resources away from its core WinStation
products. Substantial selling resources were allocated during the period to
EyeSys products in support of co-marketing and co-selling arrangements with
Premier as well as the Company's low-cost digital imaging systems incorporating
its recently developed ocular imaging devices, the DFI and the DSLI. These
low-cost digital imaging products were introduced at the 1998 AAO Meeting and
the Company has received significant purchase commitments for these products.
While the Company made its initial commercial deliveries of these products
during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, revenues from the sales of these units
to date have been below management's initial expectations for a variety of
reasons, including those noted above as well as certain delays inherent in the
launch of new technology-based products. As a result of the foregoing, the
Company currently has a significant backlog of orders.
Gross margins were approximately 26% during the first quarter ended November 30,
1999 versus approximately 35% for the comparable quarter of 1999. As a
consequence of fixed expense levels representing a higher percentage of revenues
during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 versus the comparable period of fiscal
1999, the lower gross margin percentage during the first quarter of 2000 is due
in large measure to the significantly reduced revenue levels. The Company
continues to evaluate its expenses in this area consistent with current and
anticipated business conditions. The Company hopes its current manufacturing
relationship with Premier will provide certain efficiencies and improve gross
margins. To date, however, the Company has expended considerable resources in
connection with the outsourcing arrangements under the Manufacturing Agreement
<PAGE>14
and has experienced delays in the timely delivery of certain of its products
during the transition period, both of which have adversely impacted gross
margins. While both companies are collaborating to maximize efficiencies with
respect to the production of the Company's products under the Manufacturing
Agreement, continued delays in delivering products, if significant, would
adversely impact the Company.
Sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses accounted for
approximately 79% of total revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 as
compared with approximately 55% during the first quarter of fiscal 1999, with
the increased percentage resulting principally as a function of the reduced
revenue levels during the first quarter of 2000. Actual expense levels decreased
slightly, to $795,995 during the first quarter of 2000 versus $825,251 during
the first quarter of 1999. Primary contributing factors to the decreased
expenses were reduced commissions and other costs associated with decreased
revenue levels during the first quarter of 2000 versus the comparable period
1999. The Company is currently implementing marketing and selling alternatives
in an effort to reduce costs and/or improve efficiencies in this area, including
consolidating its current product offerings and entering into co-marketing and
selling arrangements with Premier.
Research and development expenses decreased by approximately 41% to $122,420, or
approximately 12% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 from $207,914,
or approximately 14% of revenues in fiscal 1999. The Company intends to continue
to focus its research and development efforts on its new digital image capture
products and reducing cost configurations for its current products. The extent
and focus of future research and development efforts will depend, in large
measure, on whether Premier and OIS consummate the transactions contemplated
under the Merger Agreement.
Other expense was $37,771 during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 versus $42,010
during the same period of 1999 and in both periods was comprised principally of
interest expense associated with borrowings and unsecured advances from Premier,
as well as borrowings under credit facilities with the Company's bank.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's operating activities generated cash of $6,746 in the first quarter
of fiscal 2000 and used cash of $80,704 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The
cash generated from operations during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was
principally from increases in customer deposits from orders generated at the
recently completed 1999 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology,
increased accounts payable and accrued liability levels and collection of
accounts receivable, which amounts essentially offset cash expended to fund the
net loss during the period. The cash used in operations during the first quarter
of 1999 was expended principally to fund the net loss during the period. This
amount was significantly offset by increases in customer deposits from orders
generated at the 1998 AAO Meeting and increases in accrued liabilities,
including those liabilities accrued in connection with professional costs
associated with on-going negotiations with Premier as well as interest
associated with borrowings from Premier (see Note 4 of Notes to Condensed
<PAGE>15
Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-QSB).
Cash used in investing activities was $18,995 during the first quarter of 2000
as compared to $547 during the same period for 1999. The Company's primary
investing activities consist of equipment and other capital asset acquisitions.
The Company does not currently have any pending material commitments for capital
expenditures and the Company has deferred significant capital acquisition
decisions pending improved cash flow.
The Company generated cash from financing activities of $81,094 during the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to using cash of $68,847 during the same
period of fiscal 1999. The cash generated from financing activities during the
first quarter of fiscal 2000 was resulted from the exercise of stock options by
the Exercising Directors during the period as well as an increase in the amount
of borrowings under the credit facility with Imperial Bank (the "Bank"). In
addition, pursuant to certain stock purchase agreements with respect to the
Company's Series B Preferred Stock, Premier purchased 150 shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred Stock at a per share price of $25 in exchange for
Premier's cancellation of certain of the Company's debt in the aggregate amount
of $3,750. The use of cash in financing activities during the 1999 period was
principally repayments of borrowings under the credit facility with the Bank,
which amount was partially offset by an increase in the amount of borrowings
under the note payable to and unsecured advances by Premier. Principal
repayments on notes payable to parties other than Premier were negligible in
1999.
As discussed in further detail in Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Financial
Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-QSB, on July 13, 1999, the Company
entered into an accounts receivable credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement")
with the Bank. The Credit Agreement allows for up to an 80% advance rate on
eligible accounts receivable balances. The Bank has full recourse against the
Company under the Credit Agreement and the Credit Agreement remains in effect
from year to year unless terminated in writing by the Company or the Bank.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the Bank's prime lending
rate plus 10%. The minimum monthly amount charged by the Bank is the greater of
interest calculated in the manner described above or $1,200. Under the terms of
the Credit Agreement, borrowings are secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets. Approximately $24,800 was outstanding under the Credit
Agreement at November 30, 1999.
Additionally, as discussed further in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Financial
Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-KSB, on April 30, 1998, the
Company executed a promissory note in favor of Premier (the "Premier Note"). The
Company has borrowed the maximum principal amount of $500,000 available under
the Premier Note, which principal amount outstanding, together with any and all
accrued interest, was payable the earlier of written demand by Premier or April
30, 1999. Under the terms of the Premier Note, borrowings bear interest at the
rate of 8 1/2% per annum, are secured by certain of the Company's assets and are
subordinate to borrowings under the Credit Agreement with the Bank. Premier also
has made certain unsecured advances to the Company which are not specifically
covered by the Premier Note. At November 30, 1999, the Company had recorded
<PAGE>16
approximately $1.5 million of indebtedness to Premier, including principal and
interest outstanding under the Note and unsecured advances, as well as charges
and credits pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturing Agreement, and excluding
a $500,000 termination fee in connection with the terminated Stock Purchase
Agreement in 1998 over which there is disagreement between Premier and the
Company as to whether the Company is entitled to said termination fee and
whether such termination fee can be used as an offset to the Company's debt to
Premier. Pursuant to terms of the Merger Agreement, the parties have agreed that
no payments will be required with respect to amounts owing as of August 31, 1999
during the term of the Merger Agreement. If the transactions contemplated under
the Merger Agreement are not consummated and demand for payment is made by
Premier, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern could be seriously
jeopardized, and would depend upon its ability to obtain new financing to repay
the debt to Premier.
At November 30, 1999, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were $246,852.
Even if no demand is made for payment of amounts owing under the Premier Note
and the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement are consummated,
the Company's existing cash balances together with ongoing collections of its
accounts receivable and available borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement
may not be adequate to meet its liquidity and capital requirements in the
immediate term. Substantial delays in the delivery of the Company's products,
including the mass introduction of its DFI and DSLI products, would result in
reduced anticipated cash flow from sales of such products as well as potential
increased costs associated therewith. Additionally, such delays could prompt
customers to request return deposits which would further adversely impact the
Company's cash position. Further, demand for payment by the Bank of amounts
claimed pursuant to a stock appreciation right granted to the Bank in connection
with a Credit Agreement could also result in the immediate need for additional
cash. At November 30, 1999, the Company had accrued approximately $300,000 in
contingent liability under the stock appreciation right.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company would need to obtain
Premier's prior consent with respect to securing additional capital beyond that
generated from operations, and the Company has requested Premier's cooperation
and assistance in that regard. There can be no assurance, however, that any
financing arrangements for securing additional capital will be available, and,
if available, can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company and acceptable
to Premier.
In addition, as a consequence of the Merger Agreement, certain holders of
options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock may exercise those
options. The Company could receive substantial proceeds from the exercise of
these stock options; however, there can be no assurance that any stock options
will be exercised in the near term, if at all.
In the event that the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement are
not consummated, the Company will likely have difficulty in meeting any
significant demand for its products without an infusion of capital or other
improvements in its liquidity position. Its ability to continue as a going
concern would be seriously jeopardized, and would depend upon its ability to
restructure payment terms and/or obtain substantial new financing to repay its
debts and ensure continued supply of materials and services.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
On October 18, 1999, the Company filed with the California
Secretary of State a certificate of determination
establishing the rights and privileges of the Company's
convertible Series B Preferred Stock. Reference is made to
the Company's Form 8-K filed on November 24, 1999
summarizing those rights and privileges.
On October 21, 1999, the Company and Premier executed a
Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement whereby, among
other things, the Company agreed to sell to Premier, upon
the issuance by the Company of shares of its common stock
pursuant to the exercise of stock options, shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred Stock at a price of $25 per
share with each share carrying the voting power of 1,000
shares of the Company's common stock.
Also on October 21, 1999, the Company, Premier and three of
the Company's outside directors (the "exercising Directors")
entered into a stock purchase agreement (the "Agreement")
pursuant to which, among other things, the Exercising
Directors each exercised options to purchase 50,000 shares
of common stock at an exercise price of $0.375 per share
resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $56,250.
The stock purchased by the Exercising Directors is
restricted and subject to repurchase by the Company until
the earlier of May 9, 2000 or the Effective date of the
Company's acquisition by Premier, as defined in the Merger
Agreement (see Note 6). Also under the terms of the
Agreement, Premier purchased 150 shares of the Company's
Series B Preferred Stock at a per share price of $25 in
exchange for Premier's cancellation of certain of the
Company's debt in the aggregate amount of $3,750. These 150
shares of Series B Preferred Stock are also restricted and
subject to repurchase by the Company if the Company
repurchases any of the common stock purchased by the
Exercising Directors.
As a result of the foregoing transactions, Premier owns
approximately 49 1/2% of the Company's outstanding common
stock and all 150 outstanding shares of the Company's Series
B Preferred Stock, resulting in sole voting power of
approximately 53%.
The sale of Series B Preferred Stock to Premier was exempt
under the federal securities laws by virtue of Regulation D.
Premier is a corporation with total assets in excess of $5
million, the total purchase price was of the transaction was
less than $1 million and there was no general solicitation
<PAGE>18
with respect to the transaction.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
As indicated in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Financial
Statements, and addressed further in the Liquidity and
Capital Resources discussion of Item 2 of Part I of this
report, the Company is in default of its principal and
interest payment obligations under the Note with Premier.
In addition, the Company also has recorded liability to
Premier for unsecured advances made to the Company by
Premier.
The aggregate amount recorded as liability at November 30,
1999 under the Note and unsecured advances, including
principal and interest, was approximately $1,508,000, which
amount was net of certain offset charges pursuant to the
terms of the Manufacturing Agreement described in Note 5 of
the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES
None.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
None.

probabilities that might, in the least favorable
combination, reach $1.3 million.
On November 24, 1999, Issuer filed a Form 8-K to
