Dependence On Key Personnel. The Company is managed by
a small number of key executive officers, most notably
Clifford L. Brody, the Company’s Chairman Chief [sic]
Executive Officer. The loss of services of one or more
of these key individuals, particularly Mr. Brody, could
materially and adversely affect the business of the
Company and its prospects. The Company believes that
its success will depend in large part on its ability to
attract and retain highly skilled and qualified
personnel. None of the executive officers of the
Company have [sic] employment agreements and the
Company does not maintain key person life insurance for
any of its executive officers.
The Confidential Private Placement Memorandum was supplemented in
October 1999.
