                      INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT

Item 5.  Other Events
         ------------

         In order to demonstrate compliance with the listing requirements of the
Nasdaq National Market  concerning public float (shares not held by affiliates),
the registrant  (the  "Company") is filing this report.  Similar  reports may be
filed  in the  future.  Absent  the  filing  of  this  report  or the  continued
compliance of the Company with the listing  requirements  of the Nasdaq National
Market,  the common stock of the Company could ultimately cease to trade on that
market, possibly resulting in less liquidity and, therefore,  more volatility in
the pricing of shares of common stock.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

         Persons  and  groups  owning in excess  of 5% of the  common  stock are
required  to file  certain  reports  regarding  such  ownership  pursuant to the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as  amended.  Based  upon such  reports  and
information  provided by the Company's  transfer agent, the following table sets
forth, as of January 31, 2000, certain  information as to those persons who were
beneficial owners of more than 5% of the outstanding  shares of common stock and
as to the common stock beneficially owned by executive officers and directors of
the Company as a group.  Management  knows of no  persons,  other than those set
forth below, who owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock at
January 31, 2000.  At January 31, 2000,  there were  1,127,806  shares of common
stock outstanding.
