Inc. (Halcon). He worked for that company or one of its subsid-
iaries until 1986 when Halcon and its subsidiaries ceased busi-
ness operations. During the first few years Mr. Korchak worked
for Halcon, he was involved in research and development. His

developed did not appear to be economically feasible, no further
work was done with respect to such processes.

and Development Corporation, a subsidiary of Halcon that was
involved in research and development. Sometime during 1981, Mr.

another subsidiary of Halcon that was involved in engineering,
and held that position during 1982.
