ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
In August 1994, Hardy v. Saliva Diagnostic Systems, Inc., Ronald L.
Lealos, Eugene Seymour and Richard S. Kalin, was filed in United States
District Court, District of Connecticut by Luc Hardy, a former director
and officer of the Company (the "Action"). The complaint alleged several
causes of action against the Company and individual defendants, including
former directors and officers of the Company, including breach of Mr. Hardy's
employment agreement with the Company, intentional interference with
contract by the individual defendants, slander and deceptive trade
practices, all arising from his employment termination by the Company. A
judgment was entered against the Company on March 23, 1999 for approximately
$1,675,000. Pursuant to a settlement agreement dated July 2, 1999 (the
"Settlement"), the Company issued approximately 1,500,000 shares of its
common stock and will pay approximately $290,000 in cash over a two-year
period to Mr. Hardy. As a part of this settlement, Mr. Hardy has agreed to
enter into a two-year consulting agreement pursuant to which Mr. Hardy will
provide consulting services to the Company. The settlement was to become
effective upon Mr. Hardy's filing of a satisfaction and release of the
judgment, as well as a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice of the Action,
both of which have now occurred.
ITEM 4. Purpose of Transaction
The shares issued pursuant to the Settlement were acquired for, and are
being held for, investment purposes. Hardy has no plan or proposal that is
related to, or would result in, any of the actions enumerated in Item 4 of the
instructions to Schedule 13D.
