BANKRUPTCY OR RECEIVERSHIP By order dated March 19, 1997, the High Court of Justice, Chancery Division, Companies Court in London, England, (the "High Court") ordered that the following three wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, MTi Trading Systems, Winter Partners Limited and MTi Holding (UK) Limited (collectively, the "UK Subsidiaries"), be managed by joint administrators pursuant to the provisions of Section 8 of the English Insolvency Act 1986. The High Court appointed Mr. Malcolm Cohen and Anthony Peter Supperstone of BDO Stoy Hayward as joint administrators. The stated purposes of the High Court orders are (i) the survival of the UK Subsidiaries, and the whole or part of their undertaking, as a going concern, (ii) the approval of a voluntary arrangement under part I of the English Insolvency Act 1986, and (iii) a more advantageous realisation of the UK Subsidiaries' assets than would be effected on a winding up. ITEM 5 OTHER EVENTS The Company extended the expiration of its Class C Warrants to April 28, 1997 at 5:30 PM Eastern Standard Time. The original expiration date was February 26, 1997 and was previously extended to March 31, 1997. On March 18, 1997, the Supreme Court of the State of New York issued a temporary restraining order prohibiting Mr. Peter Morris and Mr. John Ridley from entering the Company's premises, from dealing in any of the Company's assets or properties, and from taking any action or doing anything in the name or on behalf of the Company. Messrs. Morris and Ridley are directors of the Company. They have challenged the temporary restraining order and removed the matter to the Federal Court in the Southern District of New York where it is scheduled for hearing on May 22nd, 1997.
