                          STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL RISKS

         AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECUITIES IS SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVES A HIGH
DEGREE OF RISK AND INCLUDES THE POSSIBILITY OF A TOTAL LOSS OF ONE'S INVESTMENT.
ONLY THOSE PERSONS WHO ARE ABLE TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS SHOULD CONSIDER
PURCHASING THE UNITS. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH BELOW AS WELL AS THOSE SET FORTH IN THE
REGISTRATION STATEMEMNT EXCERPT BEFORE A DECISION IS MADE TO PURCHASE ANY
SHARES.


VIABILITY OF SUPERSTORE
-----------------------

         The proceeds of this Offering are earmarked and may be used only to
defray the costs of opening and marketing a retail art and framing "Superstore",
as described in the Superstore Description attached hereto, and for working
capital related thereto. There is no requirement that a particular amount of
Securities be sold. In the event that the Company does not receive sufficient
proceeds, the Company may not be able to open the "Superstore". Even if the
Company receives sufficient proceeds, there is no assurance that that the
Company will be able to open the "Superstore", as described, or to operate the
business properly. The Company will not pay any brokerage or other fees in
connection with the sale of the Notes. It believes that expenses and filing fees
will not exceed $25,000. If all of the Notes are sold, the Company will receive
proceeds in the amount of $475,000, which will be used to defray the costs of
opening and marketing the "Superstore" and for working capital related thereto.

POSSIBLE ILLIQUIDITY
--------------------

         The offer and sale of the Convertible Notes has not been registered
under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any jurisdiction in reliance
on exemptions from registration. The Securities may not be resold unless the
resale is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and the applicable
state securities laws or, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, an exemption
from registration is available. Further, the market for the Company's shares is
extremely limited and there is no assurance that an active market will develop
in the future. As a result, an investor must be prepared to continue to bear the
economic risk of his investment for an indefinite period of time.
