                increase its production, over the past three weeks, we have 
                successfully begun to systematically expand our customer base 
                and markets in order to increase our revenue volumes and

                increase. As a result of our efforts, we anticipate significant 
                revenue growth for the remainder of this year and into next.

                manufacturing into other markets, such as medical applications 
                and PC gaming applications. The Company’s other operating 
                division, Sequent Technologies, is in the process of 
                establishing initial market acceptance of its long-range video,
