be held on Friday, October 22, 1999, 10:00 A.M. at the Company's principal
office, located at 23263 Madero, Suite C, Mission Viejo, California 92691 (the

Board of Director's recommendations unless the proxy indicates otherwise. Any
shareholder giving a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its use by filing
with the Secretary of the Company a written revocation or a proxy bearing a
later date, or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting. The cost of the
solicitation of the proxies will be paid by the Company. In addition to the
solicitation of proxies by use of the mails, directors, officers and employees
of the Company may solicit proxies personally, or by other appropriate
custodians, nominees or fiduciaries holding shares of Common Stock in their
names for others, to send proxy materials and to obtain proxies from their
principals and the Company will reimburse them for their expenses in doing so.

The approximate date on which this proxy statement and the form of proxy is
first being sent or given to the Company's shareholders is October 1, 1999.

The Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999 is being
mailed concurrently with this proxy statement. Brokerage houses, custodians,
nominees and others may obtain additional copies of the Annual Report, Form 10-
KSB or this proxy statement by request to the Company.

The address of the Company's principal executive office is 23263 Madero,
Suite C, Mission Viejo, California 92691.

VOTING RIGHTS

Shareholders of Common Stock of record at the close of business on
September 24, 1999, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual
Meeting. As of September 24, 1999, there were 1,418,400 shares of Common Stock
outstanding, all of one class, all of which are entitled to be voted at the
Annual Meeting. The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of a
majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on September 24, 1999, will
constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes
of determining a quorum, but are not considered as having voted for purposes of
determining the outcome of a vote.

Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote; provided, however,
that, shareholders are entitled to cumulative voting in the election of
directors. As provided by the Company's Bylaws and by California law, in
electing directors no shareholder shall be entitled to accumulate his votes
(i.e., cast for any one candidate a number of votes greater than the number of
such shareholder's shares of Common Stock) unless the candidate's name has been
placed in nomination by a shareholder present at the Annual Meeting prior to the
commencement of the voting and at least one shareholder has given notice prior
to the commencement of voting of his intention to accumulate votes. If any
shareholder has given such notice, then each shareholder may accumulate his
votes and give to one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of
directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which his shares of
Common Stock are entitled, or may distribute his votes on the same principle
among as many candidates as he may desire. Regardless of whether the shares of
Common Stock are voted cumulatively, the candidates receiving the highest number
of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, shall be elected. Unless
otherwise instructed, the shares represented by proxies to management will be
voted in the discretion of management so as to elect the maximum number of
management nominees which may be elected by cumulative voting (if applicable).

PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SECURITIES

The following table sets forth information regarding beneficial ownership
of shares of Common Stock as of September 24, 1999, by (i) all persons known to
the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) each director and nominee for director
and all named executive officers, and (iii) all current executive officers and
directors as a group. Persons named in the following table have sole voting and
investment powers with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by

contained in the footnotes to the table. Information with respect to beneficial
ownership is based upon the Company's Common Stock records and data supplied to
