--------------------------
The Company provides Woolsey-Hosoi with embalming services, assistance with
funeral arrangements, use of its facilities and related charges. The revenues
from services provided to Woolsey-Hosoi is reflected in net sales and services
which amounted to $12,728 and $10,440 for the period ended February 29, 2000
and February 28, 1999, respectively.
(6) Deferred income taxes
---------------------
Deferred taxes are recognized for differences between the basis of assets and
liabilities for financial statements and income tax purposes. The deferred
assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those
differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and
liabilities are recovered or settled. The deferred tax liability results from
the recognition of unrealized gains, net of losses, on securities for
financial statements purposes and recognition of gains or losses when
securities are sold for income tax purposes, the inclusion of deferred
earnings on an annuity policy for financial statements and the recognition of
the earnings when received for tax purposes and the equity method of
accounting for the investment in subsidiary as explained under Garden Life
Plan, Ltd. above. Under the equity method, the Company's share of earnings of
the subsidiary is reported for tax purposes only when distributions of
earnings are received as dividends. At February 29, 1999 the Company's
retained earnings included approximately $2,795,231 of undistributed earnings
of GLP.
The deferred tax asset results from the use of the reserve method in
accounting for uncollectible accounts receivable in the financial statements
and the use of the direct write off method for income tax purpose, the accrual
of the retroactive rent for financial statements purposes and the recognition
of the rent expense when paid for income tax purposes and the accrual of
vacation and sick leave when earned for the financial statements and the
recognition for income tax purposes when paid.

(9) Comprehensive income
--------------------
In the year ended May 31, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which requires
that unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities be included

(10) Reacquired shares
-----------------
Capital contributed is reduced for shares of the Company reacquired after June
30, 1987. Payments for shares in excess of the par value of each share
acquired has been charged to additional paid-in capital. Purchase of
reacquired shares have exceeded the balance of additional paid-in capital and
therefore, Retained Earnings is charged for the cost in excess of par value.
The 223,785 shares reflected as Treasury Stock as of November 30, 1999
reflects the shares acquired before July 1, 1987.
(11) Prior period adjustment
-----------------------
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 1999 financial statements, it was
determined that the amount of income taxes provided in the financial
statements was understated. As a result additional income taxes of $20,943
has been charged to retained earnings in the current year.
(12) Year 2000 Issue
---------------
The Year 2000 Issue arises because most computer software programs allocate
only two digits to the data field for year on the assumption that the first
two digits will be 19. Such programs, absent reprogramming, will thus
interpret the year 2000 as the year 1900 and 2001 as 1901 and so on. The Year
2000 Issue affects both computer hardware (i.e. the embedded logic of
computer chips) and computer software and could impact both the ability to
enter data into computer programs and the ability of such programs to process
data correctly. The Company's operations, like those of many business entities,
including infrastructure providers, vendors and others whose performance can
affect the operations of the Company, may be impacted by the Year 2000 Issue
with microprocessors and programs. Unless such microprocessors or programs are
modified or replaced, they may not function properly after December 31, 1999,
causing system failure or miscalculations.

(12) Year 2000 Issue (continued)
---------------
Based on recent assessments, the Company has determined that it will be
required to modify or replace significant portions of its software and
hardware so that these systems will properly utilize dates beyond December 31,
1999. The Company presently believes that with modifications or replacement
of existing software and certain hardware, the Year 2000 Issue can be
mitigated. However, if such modifications and replacements are not made, or
are not completed timely, the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on
the operations of the Company.
The Company has identified the system in the matrix below as mission-critical
which may be affected by the Year 2000 Issue. This system was subject to the
following four stages of work: awareness, assessment, remediation and
validation/testing.
The following matrix summarizes the Company's Year 2000 remediation work for
its mission-critical system. The remediation is either complete, in progress
or yet to be addressed.

responded, as the case may be, but on whose operations the Company directly or
indirectly depends, will be in compliance in a timely manner. Any failure by
some or all of these persons to be in compliance could adversely affect the
operations of the Company.
The Company will utilize both internal and external resources to reprogram,
replace, test and implement software and equipment for Year 2000
modifications.
The Company has spent approximately $3,500 to replace general office desktop
systems. At the present time, the Company believes that the amount of money
needed to complete the Year 2000 remediation will not be material and is
estimated not to exceed $25,000.
The Company does not have any substantial contingency plans because it
believes that its remediation efforts will be successful. The Company has,
however, identified specific procedures required to keep its operations
functioning in the event of delays or machine failures.
Because of the unprecedented nature of the Year 2000 Issue, its effects and
the success of remediation efforts will not be fully determinable until the
Year 2000 and thereafter. There is no assurance that the Company will be Year
2000 ready, that the Company's remediation efforts will be successful in whole
or in part, or that parties with whom the Company does business will be Year
