Part III-Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion

The Company advises that, since the resignation of its Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer in February 1999, the current four-member Board of Directors
has been unable to reach consensus on certain significant corporate matters,
including the timing of the annual shareholders' meeting and consideration of a
potential business acquisition/combination.
Since the termination of its previous securities counsel, the Company's interim
Chairman of the Board has been functioning in that capacity. However, the
Company is currently considering the engagement of new legal and securities
counsel to advise management on the matters discussed above as well as general
legal/securities matters, such as Form 10-KSB, 10-QSB and proxy-related
matters.

operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or

[X] Yes [ ] No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and Quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons

The Company's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1999, is
$305,900 compared to a net loss of $174,800 in three months ended
March 31, 1998. The period-to-period increase in net loss is primarily
attributable to the accrual of $150,000 in severance obligations to
the Company's former President and Chief Executive Officer who
resigned in February 1999.
