FORWARD LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

          This report contains certain "forward looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Generally, the
words "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend,"
"expect" and similar expressions identify forward looking statements. The
Registrant has based these forward looking statements largely on its current
expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting
its business. These forward looking statements include statements relating to
trends in the advertising and marketing services industry, particularly with
respect to anticipated advertising expenditures in the world's advertising
markets. Actual advertising expenditures may differ materially from the
estimates contained therein depending on, among other things, regional, national
and international political and economic conditions, technological changes, the
availability of media and regulatory regimes in the world's advertising markets.
Additionally, this report contains a number of "forward looking statements"
relating to the Registrant's performance. The Registrant's actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated, depending on, among other things,
gains to or losses from its client base, the amount of revenue derived from
clients, the Registrant's exposure to changes in the exchange rates of major
currencies against the pound sterling (because a substantial portion of its
revenues are derived and costs incurred outside of the United Kingdom), the
general level of advertising expenditures in the Registrant's markets referred
to above and the overall level of economic activity in the Registrant's major
markets as discussed above. The Registrant's ability to reduce its fixed cost
base in the short term is limited and therefore its trading performance can be
significantly affected by variations in the level of its revenues.

(No. 333-46570) and to be a part of such prospectus from the date on which this
report is furnished, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports
subsequently filed or furnished.
