 GRAND HAVANA ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 29, 2002 and DECEMBER 23, 2001
 (Unaudited)
 
 1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 The interim consolidated condensed financial statements presented have been prepared by Grand Havana Enterprises, Inc. (the Company) without audit, and in the opinion of the management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for fair statements of (a) the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended December 29, 2002 and December 23, 2001, (b) the consolidated financial position at December 29, 2002 and (c) the consolidated cash flows for the three months ended December 29, 2002 and December 23, 2001. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. The consolidated balance sheet presented as of September 29, 2002 has been derived from the consolidated financial statements that have been audited by the Companys independent
auditors. The consolidated financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by Form 10-QSB and do not contain certain information included in the annual financial statements and notes of the Company. The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form10-KSB.
 
 Use of Estimates . The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
  Revenue Recognition and Measurement . The Company derives revenues from four principal sources: (1) membership (humidor rental) fees; (2) sales of cigars and related merchandise; (3) private events and club activities; and (4) food and beverage sales. Revenue from sales of cigars and related merchandise, private events and club activities, and food and beverage sales are recognized at the time of the sale. The Company recognizes two types of membership (humidor rental) fees,  an initial fee, or set up fee, and a monthly rental fee. The initial fee is recognized at the time the member joins. The monthly rental fee is charged in advance for a three-month period, and recognized equally over the three-month period.
Deferred revenue represents those humidor fees charged in advance and recognized equally over the three-month period.
 
 Income (Loss) Per Share . Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is calculated assuming the issuance of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of stock options and warrants. These potentially dilutive securities were not included in the calculation of loss per share for the three months ended December 29, 2002 and December 23, 2001, because the Company incurred a loss during the periods, and thus, their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, basic and diluted losses per share are the same for the three months ended December 29, 2002 and December 23,
2001.
 
 Principles of Consolidation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
 Fair Value of Financial Instruments . The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred liabilities and term loans. The fair value of the Companys financial instruments approximates the carrying value of the instruments.
 
 Recent Accounting Pronouncements . In January 2003 (as revised in December 2003), the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 46, entitled Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (Interpretation 46), an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (ARB 51). Interpretation 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities, which have one or both of the following characteristics: (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated support from other parties; or (ii) the investors lack one or more of the following essential
characteristics of a controlling financial interest: (a) the direct or indirect ability to make decisions about the entitys activities through voting rights or similar rights, or (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity if they occur.
 4
 Interpretation 46, as revised, also requires expanded disclosure by the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, and by an enterprise that holds a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, but is not the primary beneficiary.
 
 Interpretation 46, as revised, applies to small business issuers no later than the end of the first reporting period after December 15, 2004. The effective date includes those entities to which Interpretation 46 had previously applied. However, prior to the required application of Interpretation 46, a public entity that is a small business issuer must apply Interpretation 46 to those entities that are considered to be special purpose entities no later than as of the end of the first reporting period after December 15, 2003.
 
 Interpretation 46 may be applied prospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date which it is first applied, or by restating previously issued financial statements for one or more years with a cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the first year restated.
 
 In June 2003, FASB issued an exposure draft for a proposal under the Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS), entitled Qualifying Special Purpose Entities (QSPE) and Isolation of Transferred Assets," an amendment to SFAS No. 140 (The Exposure Draft). The Exposure Draft is a proposal that is subject to change, and as such, is not yet authoritative. If the proposal is enacted in its current form, it will amend and clarify SFAS No. 140. The Exposure Draft would prohibit an entity from being a QSPE if it enters into an agreement that obligates a transferor of financial assets, its affiliates, or its agents to deliver additional cash or other assets to fulfill the special purposes entitys obligation to beneficial interest holders.
 
 In December 2002, FASB issued Statement No. 148, entitled Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure," an amendment to FASB Statement No. 123 (SFAS 148). SFAS 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), and provides alternative methods for accounting for a change by registrants to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Additionally, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require disclosure in the significant accounting policy footnote of both annual and interim statements of the method of accounting for stock-based compensation, and the related pro forma disclosures, when the intrinsic value method continues to be used. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2002, and disclosure is effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2002.
 
 In April 2003, FASB issued SFAS No. 149, entitled Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 149). SFAS 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, entitled Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133). The changes in SFAS 149 improve financial reporting by requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. All of its provisions must be applied prospectively.
 
 In May 2003, FASB issued SFAS No. 150, entitled Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments and Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS 150). SFAS 150 changes the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity that, under previous pronouncements, issuers could account for as equity. The new accounting guidance contained in SFAS 150 requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities on the balance sheet.
 5
 SFAS 150 affects the issuers accounting for three types of freestanding financial instruments. One type is mandatory redeemable shares, which the issuing company is obligated to buy back in exchange for cash or other assets. A second type includes put options and forward purchase contracts, which involve instruments that require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets. The third type of instruments that are liabilities under SFAS 150 are obligations that can be settled with shares, the monetary value of which is fixed, tied solely or predominantly to a variable such as a market index, or that vary inversely with the value of the issuers shares. SFAS 150 does not apply to features embedded in a financial instrument that are not derivative in their
entirety.
 
 Most of the provisions of SFAS 150 are consistent with the existing definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, entitled Elements of Financial Statements. The remaining provisions of SFAS 150 are consistent with FASBs proposal to revise the definition to encompass certain obligations that a reporting entity can settle by issuing its own shares. SFAS 150 is effective for the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of a non-public entity, where the effective date is the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2004.
 
 The implementation of the provisions of these pronouncements are not expected to have a significant effect on the Companys consolidated financial statement presentation.

TAXES PAYABLE 
 The Company owed the New York State Department of Taxation $256,953 in back sales tax, interest and penalties as of December 29, 2002.
 
 On February 11, 2003, the Company was notified by the City of New York Department of Finance that it was in arrears in payment of Commercial Rent Tax. This tax is based on annual rent payments made to the Companys landlord at a rate of 6%, after a 35% discount. The Company has never paid any Commercial Rent Tax since its opening in June 1997. The City informed the Company that it was the responsibility of landlords to inform their tenants of the rent tax in effect. Upon notification by the City of New York, the Company requested a conciliation conference, which was granted and held on June 24, 2003, and attended by Stanley Shuster, the Companys Chief Executive Officer. At this conference, the Company agreed to pay the
back rent tax and interest, while the City of New York agreed to waive all penalties. This amounted to $137,498 in back taxes and $36,036 in interest. The City waived $53,293 in penalties. On July 31, 2003, the Company made a down payment of $43,250. On September 12, 2003, the Company was notified by the City of New York of its upcoming amnesty period, starting October 20, 2003 and running until January 23, 2004. During this period, if payment of remaining back rent tax was paid-in-full, the interest portion would be reduced to $20,154. As of December 29, 2002, the Company owed the City of New York approximately $135,000 in Commercial Rent Tax and interest.
 
 In May 2003, the Company began negotiations with the State of New York Department of Finance with regards to the Companys sales tax in arrears. The Company paid $100,000 as a down payment and entered into a tentative agreement to pay $25,000 a month until the total balance was paid-in-full. In July 2003, the Company began making monthly payments. On January 24, 2004, the State of New York formally approved the $25,000 per month payment agreement, which is scheduled to end in July 2005.
 
 5.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 
 On March 1, 2004, the Company consolidated its notes payables and all accrued liabilities to advances made by the Companys former Chief Executive Officer. The Company issued a promissory note to its former Chief Executive Officer in the amount of $2,500,901. In connection therewith, the former Chief Executive Officer agreed to terminate a security agreement dated September 30, 1998, whereby he was granted a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company.  The Company also issued a promissory note to United Films for $782,917, which consolidated the original note and accrued interest due to United Films. Lastly, the Company issued a promissory note to an affiliate, 1990 Westwood Blvd., Inc. (1990 Westwood), the Companys former landlord of its
corporate office, for $181,720. The notes issued to the Company's former Chief Executive Officer, United Films and 1990 Westwood on March 1, 2004 provided for interest at a rate of 5% per annum.
 
 On September 26, 2004, the Company cancelled the notes issued to its former Chief Executive Officer, United Films and 1990 Westwood on March 1, 2004. In consideration for such cancellation and termination of the March 1, 2004 notes, the Company issued its former Chief Executive Officer, United Films and 1990 Westwood new, unsecured promissory notes for principal and unpaid interest owed to such parties as of such date in amounts of $2,435,050, $798,786 and $170,866, respectively (collectively, the September 2004 Notes). The September 2004 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum. The Company has the right to prepay the September 2004 Notes in whole or in part at any time. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay its
former Chief Executive Officer successive monthly installments of at least $10,000, commencing on October 1, 2004 and continuing on the first day of each month until the loan matures. The September 2004 Notes are all due and payable upon the earlier of (1) September 30, 2007, (2) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (3) a change in control of the Company.

 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
 OVERVIEW
 
 The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB. Certain statements contained herein that are not related to historical results, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Companys business strategy and objectives, future financial position and estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), and involve risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, there
can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate, and actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with the ability to obtain adequate working capital on terms favorable to the Company, compliance with regulatory requirements, the Companys ability to sell more memberships, a decline in public consumption of cigars and other tobacco products, significant increases in excise taxes, which could substantially increase the price of cigars and general economic factors. All forward-looking statements contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB are qualified in their entirety by this statement.
 
 The Company is engaged in the business of the ownership and operation of private membership cigar clubs known as Grand Havana Rooms, and in the ownership and operation of retail cigar stores known as Grand Havana House of Cigars. Unless the context otherwise indicates, the Company means Grand Havana Enterprises, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
 The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 13, 1993 under the name United Restaurants, Inc. The Company was originally formed in order to acquire all of the capital stock of Loves Enterprises, Inc. (LEI). LEI was the franchiser, owner and operator of the Loves restaurant chain. The Company acquired the stock of LEI in May 1993. In December 1996, due to less than anticipated operating results from the Loves restaurant chain, the Company adopted a plan of discontinuance with respect to the Loves restaurant chain, which was completed in July 1998.
 
 The Company currently owns and operates two Grand Havana Rooms, one in Beverly Hills, California, which opened in June 1995, and one in New York, New York, which opened in May 1997. The Company formerly operated a third Grand Havana Room and House of Cigars in Washington, D.C. That location was closed in February 1999 and substantially all of the assets were sold. In addition, the Company currently owns and operates one Grand Havana House of Cigars location in Beverly Hills, California, which opened in December 1997. The Company previously operated a Grand Havana House of Cigars in Las Vegas, Nevada, which opened in November 1997. The Company closed the Las Vegas Grand Havana House of Cigars on January 1, 2002. The Companys primary business focus is operating its existing cigar clubs and retail
store.
 
 For the quarter ended December 29, 2002, the Company had a net loss of ($113,488), compared to a net loss of ($10,697) for the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001. This is primarily due to the accrued Commercial Rent Tax due to the City of New York.
 
 The House of Cigars location experienced a small gain. The Beverly Hills House of Cigars had an operating income of $2,574 for the quarter ended December 29, 2002, compared to an operating loss of ($4,384) for the quarter ended December 23, 2001.

 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 29, 2002 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 23, 2001.
 
 REVENUES
 
 The Company derives revenues from continuing operations from four principal sources: (1) membership (humidor rental) fees; (2) sales of cigars and related merchandise; (3) club activities; and (4) food and beverage sales. During the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, the Company had revenues of $1,618,173, compared to revenues of $1,654,320 for the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001, a decrease of $36,147, or approximately 2.2%. The decrease in revenues is primarily due to a decrease in membership (humidor rental) fees, and a reduction in club activities and private events.
 
 Membership (Humidor Rental) Fees. Revenue from humidor rental fees decreased from $490,920 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001 to $457,934 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, a decrease of $32,986, or approximately 6.7%. This was primarily due to a reduction in membership at the New York Grand Havana Room, and reduced new membership overall. The New York Grand Havana Room has approximately 40% of its regular and social memberships available for sale.
 
 Merchandise Sales. Revenue from merchandise sales decreased from $110,964 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001 to $100,130 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, a decrease of $10,834, or approximately 9.8%. This decrease is principally due to the overall public decline in tobacco and other tobacco products usage, and the closure of the Las Vegas Grand Havana House of Cigars.
 
 Club Activities. Revenue from club activities or private events decreased from $317,484 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001 to $269,472 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, a decrease of $48,012, or approximately 15.1%.
 
 Food and Beverage. Revenue from food and beverage increased from $734,952 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001 to $790,637 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, an increase of $55,685, or approximately 7.6%. This increase is primarily due to a greater number of Christmas parties in 2002.
  COSTS AND EXPENSES
 
 During the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, the Company incurred total costs and expenses of $1,685,353, compared to $1,609,143 for the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001, an increase of $76,210, or approximately 4.7%.
 
 Food and Beverage. During the quarter ended December 29, 2002, food and beverage expenses were $256,948, a decrease of $28,053, or 9.8%, over food and beverage expenses for the quarter ended December 23, 2001. This decrease was attributable to a reduction in liquor costs at the Grand Havana Room in New York. The Company also closed its kitchen in Beverly Hills, California at the end of January 2001, and entered into a contract with Mistrals Brasserie L.L.C. ("Mistrals") to provide food for the club. In June 2002, Mistrals was replaced by 301 N. Canon Dr. L.L.C. ("301 Canon"). The Company's contract with 301 Canon calls for food costs to be 72% of 301 Canon's sales.
 
 Merchandise. During the quarter ended December 29, 2002, merchandise expenses were $61,081, an increase of $6,206, or 11.3%, over merchandise expenses for the quarter ended December 23, 2001. This increase was due to a slightly reduced margin in merchandise sales.
 
 Operating Expenses. During the quarter ended December 29, 2002, operating expenses were $1,105,384, an increase of $116,319, or 11.8%, over operating expenses for the quarter ended December 23, 2001. This increase was attributable to the accrual of past Commercial Rent Tax of approximately $135,000.
 10
 Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by approximately 16.6%, from $106,205 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001, to $88,568 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002.
 
 General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately 0.4%, from $173,997 in the fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001, to $173,372 in the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002.
 
 NET INCOME (LOSS)
 
 The Company experienced net loss of ($113,488), or ($0.01) per share, for the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2002, compared to a net loss of ($10,697), or ($0.00) per share, for fiscal quarter ended December 23, 2001, an increase in net loss of ($102,791), or approximately -960.9%.

On March 1, 2004, the Company and 1990 Westwood entered into a letter agreement, whereby the Company issued a promissory note to 1990 Westwood in the amount of $181,720.

The full amount due under the 1997 Promissory Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, was due and payable by the Company on demand. The president of United Films is Brian Shuster, the son of Harry Shuster and the brother of Stanley Shuster, the current Chief Executive Officer and principal stockholder of the Company.

 The Company believes that it will meet its working capital needs in the current fiscal year from the operations of its Grand Havana Rooms and Grand Havana House of Cigars locations. Due to the fact that the trading price of the Companys common stock has remained low in the last twelve months, and because it currently is not trading on a nationally recognized exchange, the Company does not anticipate that it will be able to sell its securities in private placements on terms that are acceptable to the Company for the foreseeable future. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds through private placement of its securities, it may seek financing from affiliated or unaffiliated third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing would be
available to the Company when and if it is needed, or that if available, it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain financing to meet its working capital needs and to repay indebtedness as it becomes due, the Company may have to consider such options as selling or pledging portions of its assets in order to meet such obligations.
 
 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
  Revenue Recognition and Measurement . The Company derives revenues from four principal sources: (1) membership (humidor rental) fees; (2) sales of cigars and related merchandise; (3) private events and club activities; and (4) food and beverage sales. Revenue from sales of cigars and related merchandise, private events and club activities, and food and beverage sales are recognized at the time of sale. The Company recognizes two types of membership (humidor rental) fees, an initial fee, or set up fee, and a monthly rental fee. The initial fee is recognized at the time the member joins. The monthly rental fee is charged in advance for a
three-month period, and recognized equally over the three-month period. Deferred revenue represents those humidor fees charged in advance and recognized equally over the three-month period.
 
 Recent Accounting Pronouncements . In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation 46 which addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities, which have one or both of the following characteristics: (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated support from other parties; or (ii) the investors lack one or more of the following essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest: (a) the direct or indirect ability to make decisions about the entitys activities through voting rights or similar rights, or (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity if they occur.
 12
 Interpretation 46, as revised, also requires expanded disclosure by the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, and by an enterprise that holds a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, but is not the primary beneficiary.
 
 Interpretation 46 applies to small business issuers no later than the end of the first reporting period after December 15, 2004. The effective date includes those entities to which Interpretation No. 46 had previously applied. However, prior to the required application of Interpretation 46, a public entity that is a small business issuer must apply Interpretation 46 to those entities that are considered to be special purpose entities no later than as of the end of the first reporting period after December 15, 2003.
 
 Interpretation No. 46 may be applied prospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date it is first applied, or by restating previously issued financial statements for one or more years with a cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the first year restated.
 
 In June 2003, FASB issued the Exposure Draft. The Exposure Draft is a proposal that is subject to change, and as such, is not yet authoritative. If the proposal is enacted in its current form, it will amend and clarify SFAS 140. The Exposure Draft would prohibit an entity from being a QSPE if it enters into an agreement that obligates a transferor of financial assets, its affiliates, or its agents to deliver additional cash or other assets to fulfill the special purposes entitys obligation to beneficial interest holders.
 
 In December 2002, FASB issued SFAS 148, which amends SFAS 123 and provides alternative methods for accounting for a change by registrants to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Additionally, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require disclosure in the significant accounting policy footnote of both annual and interim statements of the method of accounting for stock-based compensation, and the related pro forma disclosures, when the intrinsic value method continues to be used. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002, and disclosure is effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2002.
 
 In April 2003, FASB issued SFAS 149 which amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and hedging activities under SFAS 133. The changes in SFAS 149 improve financial reporting by requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. All of its provisions must be applied prospectively.
 
 In May 2003, FASB issued SFAS 150 which changes the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity that, under previous pronouncements, issuers could account for as equity. The new accounting guidance contained in SFAS 150 requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities on the balance sheet.
 
 SFAS 150 affects the issuers accounting for three types of freestanding financial instruments. One type is mandatory redeemable shares, which the issuing company is obligated to buy back in exchange for cash or other assets. A second type includes put options and forward purchase contracts, which involves instruments that require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets. The third type of instruments that are liabilities under SFAS 150 are obligations that can be settled with shares, the monetary value of which is fixed, tied solely or predominantly to a variable such as a market index, or that vary inversely with the value of the issuers shares. SFAS 150 does not apply to features embedded in a financial instrument that are not derivative in their
entirety.
 
 Most of the provisions of SFAS 150 are consistant with the existing definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, entitled Elements of Financial Statements. The remaining provisions of SFAS 150 are consistent with FASBs proposal to revise the definition to encompass certain obligations that a reporting entity can settle by issuing its own shares. SFAS 150 is effective for the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of a non-public entity, where the effective date is the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2004.
 13
 The implementation of the provisions of these pronouncements are not expected to have a significant effect on the Companys consolidated financial statement presentation.
