SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's
directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of the
Company's Common Stock (collectively,
3
"Filing Persons") to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership (Form 3),
reports in changes of ownership (Form 4), or annual report of ownership (Form
5). All filing Persons are required by Securities Exchange Commission
regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed.
To the Company's knowledge based on its review of the copies of such reports
furnished to the Company and upon certain other representations made by filing
persons, D. Richard Thompson, Michael L. Kennemer, Todd R. Snyder and Raymond A.
Wechsler failed to timely file one (1) Form 3, which form was subsequently
filed.
The Company is unable to determine the reporting compliance of Section 16 (a)
beneficial owners of Cityscape common stock due to the lack of adequate records
and non-response to written representation by former officers and directors.

Cityscape's stock option plan became inoperative with the confirmation of the
amended plan of reorganization in Bankruptcy Court.
There were no shares of Cityscape's common stock acquired in 1999 through the

had an employment agreement with Cheryl P. Carl. The agreement required the
