EXHIBIT A
The completion of the Company's merger with MCS on March 7, 2000 has resulted in
MCS being treated for accounting purposes as the acquirer and the Company as the
acquired entity. As a result of such treatment, the Company's auditors need
additional time to review the disclosures in the Form 10-Q. The 1999 results
from operations will be restated to reflect this treatment. We expect the
results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2000 to reflect
an operating loss for that period as compared to net income for the three month
period ended March 31, 1999. Due to the auditors having not completed their
review of the disclosures in the Form 10-Q, the Company was unable to timely
file the Form 10-Q.
