                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

         1.       The  September  30, 1996 balance  sheet  presented  herein was
                  derived from the audited June 30, 1996 financial statements of
                  the Company.

         2.       These financial statements have been prepared in accordance
                  with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
                  financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-QSB.
                  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
                  the audited financial statements of the Company for the year
                  ended June 30, 1996 for a description of the significant
                  accounting policies, which have continued without change, and
                  other footnote information.

         3.       All  adjustments  which are,  in the  opinion  of  management,
                  necessary  for a  fair  presentation  of  the  results  of the
                  interim periods have been included. The results of the interim
                  periods are not necessarily  indicative of the results for the
                  full year.

         4.       The Company  completed its initial public offering on November
                  18, 1996 and the  over-allotment on December 3, 1996, which in
                  the  aggregate   consisted  of  1,460,000   units,   realizing
                  $4,217,049  in net  proceeds.  Each unit included one share of
                  common stock and one redeemable  warrant  exercisable at $6.00

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements which involve
risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results and experience could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as
a result of many factors including changes in the market and/or regions
currently served by the Company and in those markets and/or regions that the
Company may expand into; changes in the insurance industry; the Company's
inability to retain current or new hearing officers; and changes in the public
court system.

General

     The Company provides alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") services to
insurance companies, law firms, large self-insured corporations and
municipalities. To date, the Company has focused the majority of its marketing
efforts on developing relationships, and expanding existing relationships, with
insurance companies which the Company believes are some of the largest consumers
of ADR services.

     The Company opened its first office in March 1992 in New York and has grown
to five locations in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Tennessee and South
Carolina.

     The Company's objective is to become one of the leading providers of ADR
services nationally. To accomplish this goal, the Company plans to open up new
offices in states where it does not presently have offices, which may include
the acquisition of existing ADR companies. In addition, the Company intends to
increase its marketing of ADR services to litigants in other types of disputes, 
including complex commercial issues, construction, employment and worker's 
compensation cases.

     The Company has experienced net incomes and positive cash flow from
operations each year since January 1993.

     First Quarter Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to First Quarter Ended
     ----------------------------------------------------------------------
September 30, 1995
- ------------------

     Revenues. Revenues increased 5% to $813,444 for the first quarter ended
September 30, 1996 from $775,828 for the comparable 1995 period. Management
attributes this growth in sales to increased business with existing as well as
new clients, in light of the atypical growth experienced in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996, due to two large successful pilot programs.
<PAGE>

     Costs of Services. Cost of services as a percentage of revenues for the
first quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased to 24% from 23% for the
comparable 1995 period. This increase was attributable to the Company's
increased business resulting in additional hearing officer fees. As volume of
cases heard increases, the cost of services as a percentage of revenue is
expected to decrease.

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing costs as a percentage of revenues
for the first quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased to 51% from 46% for the
comparable 1995 period. Much of this increase was related to salaries attributed
to the increase in personnel in staffing the additional offices, which accounted
for an increase of 16%. Management believes that the Company is currently
operating with excess capacity.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative costs as a
percentage of revenues for the first quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased
to 22% from 21% for the comparable 1995 period. Much of this increase was
related to office rents, which increased 71%.

     Other Expenses, net. Other expenses as a percentage of revenues for the
first quarter ended September 30, 1996 remained unchanged at 1% from the
comparable 1995 period. Other expenses resulted from interest expense from a
past private placement financing. This debt was satisfied in full on
November 20, 1996.

     Provision for Income Taxes. The Company did not have taxable federal income
for the quarters ending September 30, 1995 and 1996, due to net operating loss
carryfowards. As of September 30, 1995 and 1996 the Company had net operating
loss carryfowards for federal tax purposes of approximately $275,112 and $78,051
respectively.

     Net Income. Net income for the first quarter ended September 30, 1996
decreased to $9,313 from $75,841 for the comparable 1995 period. This decrease
was primarily due to increases in sales and marketing expenses of 5% as a
percentage of revenues. Management believes that the prior period was atypical
due to two large scale pilot ADR programs which were successful but
not repeated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital deficit of $493,190
compared to a working capital deficit of $464,426 at June 30, 1996. This change
in working capital was primarily due to the costs associated with the initial
public offering, which closed on November 18, 1996.
<PAGE>

     The Company had net cash provided by operating activities of $21,519 for
the first quarter of 1997 and net cash provided by operating activities of
$57,813 for the first quarter of 1996.

     The Company had net cash used in investing activities of $2,990 for the
first quarter of 1997, and $18,136 for the first quarter of 1996. The primary
use of cash during these periods for investing activities was for capital 
expenditures.

     The Company had net cash used in financing activities of $54,811 for the
first quarter of 1997, due to costs associated with the offering and $61,335
for the first quarter of 1996, due to distributions and costs associated with
the offering.

     In June 1994, the Company, in a private placement, issued promissory notes
in the aggregate amount of $400,000. The notes bore interest at a rate of 8% per
annum, and were originally due June 30, 1996. Subsequently the due dates of the
notes were extended to December 31, 1996. On November 20, 1996, the notes were
repaid in-full from a portion of the net proceeds of the Company's initial
public offering.
