-------  -----------------------------------------


                  Registrant's Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization filed with the
                  Bankruptcy Court in Los Angeles, California in connection with
                  Registrant's default in its obligation to redeem the $16.3
                  million in its outstanding 10% convertible subordinated
                  debentures due June 30, 2003, was confirmed by order of the
                  Court on October 9, 2003. The Court order approved the
                  extension of the debentures for an additional five years
                  through June 30, 2008, in return for which Registrant agreed
                  to (i) increase the annual interest rate to 11.5%; (ii) reduce
                  the conversion rate to $2.50; and (iii) agreed not to redeem
                  the debentures prior to July 1, 2005. The Bankruptcy
                  proceeding had no other impact on Registrant or its
                  operations.
