Item 5.  Other Events-Resignations from the Board of Directors

         During the last week of October, 1997 the Chairman of the Board of
Directors requested and received resignations from the Company's three outside
directors. These resignations had been requested by the Chairman based upon the
strategic focus of the Company and the need for expertise in the bio medical
field. As a result, the Company does not have any outside directors. The Company
intends to identify and interview qualified candidates for the open director
positions as soon as practical.
