During the forth fiscal quarter of 1996, the Company received a notice of resignation from its chief financial officer and primary accountant. This event resulted in changes in changes with respect to the personnel and policies of the Company's accounting department. These changes delayed the completion of the Company's audit and could not have been avoided by the Company without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company also reduced its staff from approximately 75 individuals to approximately 35 individuals in an effort to reduce expenses and improve its financial condition. This significant reduction in the number of employees, including substantial changes to the Company's accounting department, further delayed the preparation of the year-end financial statements.

The Company is projecting that it will record a net loss of approximately $1,800,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to a net loss of $418,729 of the previous year. The main factor contributing to this change is the increase in general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company during the last half of fiscal 1996. This increase is largely attributable to the Company's purchase of equipment and software used in the Company's development of its Internet services division. The Company also incurred higher salary expenses during 1996 resulting from a significant increase in the number of its employees.
