RIDER TO FORM 12b-25

PART III - NARRATIVE

As a result of unexpected delays in gathering the data necessary to
finalize the Registrant's Form 10-K, largely due to other necessary
business commitments of certain of the Registrant's officers responsible
for preparing the subject report, the Report on Form 10-K could not be
timely filed without unreasonable effort or expense.

PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(3) During fiscal 1996, the Company had net income of approximately 
$3,300,000 compared to a net loss of approximately $16,000 for fiscal
1995.  This change is principally due to the foregiveness of debt of
approximately $3,300,000 effected in November 1995.
