$13.3 million of product. For the year ended September 30, 2001, sales to CCC
were $11.7 million compared to $44.8 million for the year ended September 30,
2000. As a result, the Registrant expects to report a loss for 2001. In
addition, the Registrant expects to provide a significant reserve for losses
related to receivables due from CCC for the year ended September 30, 2001.
