FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements and information included in this Current Report on Form
8-K (this "Current Report") constitute "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in
this Current Report, the words or phrases "will," "will likely result," "are
expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "projected,"
"intends to," or the negative of these terms and similar expressions are
intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to
certain risks, known and unknown, and uncertainties, including, but not limited
to, the ability of the Registrant (as defined below) to obtain bankruptcy court
approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 proceeding filed by it from
time to time, potential adverse publicity surrounding the Chapter 11 proceeding,
the ability of the Registrant to obtain and comply with obligations and
covenants in the post-petition financing documents to the extent the Registrant
determines to obtain post-petition financing, the ability of the Registrant to
fund its working capital needs through the expiration of the post-petition
financing and thereafter, the potential adverse impact of the Chapter 11
proceeding on the Registrant's liquidity or results of operations, the ability
of the Registrant to obtain and maintain adequate relationships with vendors and
customers and manage relationships with it creditors and other lenders, the
ability of the Registrant to attract and motivate key employees in the future,
potential actions of regulatory authorities which govern the Registrant's
operation, including the potential for delisting by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") and the potential for other liquidation resulting from
the Registrant's activities prior to bankruptcy, the ability of the Registrant
to develop, prosecute, confirm and consummate a plan of reorganization with
respect to the Chapter 11 proceeding, the Registrant's ability to implement a
plan of reorganization and obtain adequate post-petition financing or other
capital on commercially acceptable terms, economic conditions, changes in laws
or regulations and other risks described in the Registrant's reports filed with
the SEC. Such factors could materially adversely affect the Registrant's future
financial performance and could cause the Registrant's actual results for the
future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed
within this Current Report or other SEC reports. It is currently anticipated
that additional discussion of such factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from managements's projections, forecasts, estimates and
expectations will be contained in the Registrant's future filings with the SEC.
