1.   OPERATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION-(CONTINUED)

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements furnished herein include all adjustments, consisting of only
recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the interim periods presented. These interim results of
operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The
condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
contained in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A ("Form 10-K/A").

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required for complete financial statements.

Certain items in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of October
31, 1998 have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation.

2.   ACQUISITION

On July 2, 1998, the Company acquired the network construction and
transportation systems business of ("MFSNT") from WorldCom, Inc. ("WorldCom")
pursuant to a merger agreement dated April 26, 1998 ("Plan of Merger"). On
September 9, 1998, the Company and WorldCom finalized the terms of the Plan of
Merger through the execution of an amended agreement. The acquisition of MFSNT
was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting at a total price of
approximately $67.5 million. The allocation of purchase price to identifiable
assets and liabilities acquired is based upon preliminary estimates. The Company
is in the process of obtaining additional information necessary to finalize the
allocation of purchase price. The effect of the final allocation on previously
reported amounts is not expected to be significant.

In conjunction with the acquisition of MFSNT, the Company granted an option to
WorldCom (the "WorldCom Option") to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, at an exercise price of $7.00 per share, but subject to
a 1,817,941 share maximum limitation, and the right to receive upon satisfaction
of certain conditions phantom stock awards (the "Phantom Stock Awards")
equivalent to 600,000 shares of common stock, payable in cash, stock, or a
combination of both at the Company's option. The WorldCom Phantom Stock Awards
are exercisable only on the following three days: July 2, 1999, July 2, 2000, or
July 2, 2001. WorldCom will be entitled to receive any appreciation of the
Common Stock over a base price of $5 3/32 per share, but in no event shall the
maximum payment exceed $25.00 per share. The fair values of the WorldCom Option
and Phantom Stock Awards were estimated at the date of grant at $3.5 million and
$0.6 million, respectively, and are included as a component of the total
consideration paid for the acquisition of MFSNT.

2.   ACQUISITION-(CONTINUED)

On January 8, 1999, the Company and WorldCom agreed to convert the WorldCom
Option to stock appreciation rights with similar terms and provisions, except
that the stock appreciation rights provide for the payment of cash to WorldCom
based upon the appreciation of the Company's common stock over a base price of
$7.00 per share. The stock appreciation rights may revert back to the WorldCom
Option if certain shareholder approvals are received. In connection with the
establishment of the stock appreciation rights liability as of January 8, 1999,
the fair value was estimated to be approximately $5.9 million as compared to the
previously estimated fair value of the option of $3.5 million. The difference of
$2.4 million represents debt issue costs of $0.5 million and a reduction of
paid-in capital of $1.9 million. In addition, as of January 31, 1999, the fair
value of the stock appreciation rights liability has been estimated to be $9.3
million and a charge to income of $3.4 million has been reflected as a change in
value of stock appreciation rights in the accompanying condensed consolidated
statement of operations.

3.   BORROWINGS

During the three months ended January 31, 1999, the Company was in violation of
the payment terms of its $10.0 million principal amount 12 percent Senior
Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Notes"). These Senior Notes were purchased from
the holders effective February 17, 1999.

On June 11, 1998, and amended on June 30, 1998, the Company obtained a $35.0
million three-year senior secured revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility").
The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants which require, among
other conditions, that the Company maintain certain minimum ratios, as well as
limitations on total debt. In connection with the senior secured revolving
credit facility, the company is currently in compliance with the provisions of
such agreement and anticipates continuing compliance therewith. If compliance is
not maintained, reported current liabilities would be increased by $35 million.

4.   SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK

During the three months ended January 31, 1999, the Company was in technical
violation of certain provisions of its Series B Preferred Convertible Stock
("Series B Preferred Stock") issued in June 1998. Such default resulted from the
Company's failure to have a registration statement registering the common stock
underlying the Series B Preferred Stock and certain related warrants declared
effective by December 27, 1998. Such default gave the holders of the Series B
Preferred Stock the option to require the Company to redeem their securities at
premium prices. During the quarter ended January 31, 1999, the holders of the
Series B Preferred Stock notified the Company of their intent to exercise such
redemption right; however, such notice has been withdrawn. In February 1999,
approximately 78 percent of the Series B Preferred Stock was purchased from the
original holders and, in connection with such purchase, the Company was given
until May 18, 1999 to effect the registration described above.

5.   STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 1996, the Company's shareholders adopted a stock option plan for the issuance
of up to 550,000 shares which included provisions for both incentive and
nonqualified stock options (the "Plan") and which expires on September 19, 2005.
On April 24, 1998, the shareholders increased the number of shares issuable
under the Plan to 1,300,000 and made certain other amendments to the Plan, which
relate primarily to the issuance of restricted stock awards.

In an effort to correct certain of the actions taken by the Company's Board of
Directors in order to maintain compliance with the Plan, as amended, the Board
of Director's rescinded certain of the stock option grants, or 530,000 options
under the Plan and 310,000 options outside the Plan, and reissued these options
at the fair market value, as defined by the Plan, on December 31, 1998, as well
as shortened certain of the expiration dates of the options.

information for the period from October 31, 1998 through January 31, 1999

The Financial Accountings Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION,
in 1995, which requires expanded disclosures of stock based compensation
arrangements with employees and encourages compensation cost to be measured
based on the fair value of the equity instrument. Under SFAS No. 123, companies
are permitted to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25,
ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, which recognizes compensation cost
based on the intrinsic value of the equity instrument awarded. The Company has
elected to continue to apply APB No. 25. Under APB No. 25, to the extent the
exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equal the market price of
the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is
recognized. The following is the pro forma effect on net income (loss) and
earnings (loss) per share as if the Company had adopted the expense recognition
requirement of SFAS No. 123 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

7.   LITIGATION

LITIGATION

On May 21, 1998, SIRIT Technologies, Inc. ("SIRIT") filed a lawsuit in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, against the
Company and Thomas M. Davidson, who has since become a member of the Company's
Board of Directors. SIRIT asserts claims against the Company for tortuous
interference, fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation and breach of
contract in connection with the Company's agreement to purchase the shares of
MFSNT and seeks injunction relief and compensatory damages in excess of $100.0
million.

On September 10, 1998, Shipping Financial Services Corp. ("SFSC") filed a
lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida
against the Company, and certain of its officers. SFSC asserts claims under the
federal securities laws against the Company and four of its officers that the
defendants allegedly caused the Company to falsely represent and mislead the
public with respect to two acquisitions, COMSAT and MFSNT, and the ongoing
financial condition of the Company as a result of the acquisitions and the
related financing of those acquisitions. SFSC seeks certification as a class
action on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated and seeks
unspecified damages and attorneys' fees.

The Company is subject to a number of shareholder and other lawsuits and claims
for various amounts which arise out of the normal course of its business. The
Company intends to vigorously defend itself in these matters. The disposition of
all pending lawsuits and claims is not determinable and may have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

KANAS GUARANTY AGREEMENT

In conjunction with the acquisition of MFSNT, the Company has agreed to
guarantee the payment obligations of Kanas under its credit agreement. The
aggregate commitment of the lenders under this agreement is $85.4 million, and
the purpose of the Kanas Credit Agreement is to provide the funds necessary to
complete the Alyeska Project.

CONTRACTS

The Company has and will continue to execute various construction and other
contracts which may require the Company to, among other items, maintain specific
financial parameters, meet specific milestones and post adequate collateral
generally in the form of performance bonds. Failure by the Company to meet its
obligation under these contracts may result in the loss of the contract and
subject the Company to litigation and various claims, including liquidated
damages.

8.   SALE OF SENIOR NOTES AND SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK

In February 1999, WorldCom advanced the Company $32.0 million for purposes of
facilitating the purchase of 2,785 shares, or approximately 78 percent of the
Series B Preferred Stock and the purchase of the outstanding $10.0 million
principal amount of Senior Notes. The advance accrues interest at 11.5 percent
and is repayable on the earlier of (i) October 31, 2000 or (ii) the dates of
redemption and/or conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Senior
Notes.

In connection with these transactions and as a result of the loan of the
WorldCom funds to the Purchaser, as defined below, the Company expects to
recognize an extraordinary loss (net of income taxes) in the second quarter of
fiscal year 1999 on the purchase of the Senior Notes of approximately $1.9
million and a reduction in income applicable to common stock of approximately
$10.0 million on the purchase of the Series B Preferred Stock.

In addition, the Company agreed to modify the terms of the existing Series B
Preferred Stock conversion price from 97% of market value to a fixed amount of
approximately $3.50 per share. These modifications will result in a reduction in
income applicable to common stock of approximately $4.5 million during the
second quarter of fiscal year 1999.

WorldCom also agreed to make available additional advances to the Company of up
to $15.0 million against amounts otherwise payable pursuant to the WorldCom
master services agreement. These additional advances will accrue interest at
11.5 percent and would be repayable to WorldCom on October 31, 2000.

The funds advanced by WorldCom were loaned by the Company to Cotton
Communications, Inc. (the "Purchaser"), which may be deemed an affiliate of the
Company, and on February 17, 1999, the holders of all of the Senior Notes and
the holders of 78 percent of the Series B Preferred Stock transferred their
holdings to the Purchaser. In connection with the transfer of the Senior Notes
and the Series B Preferred Stock, the Purchaser and the remaining holders of the
Series B Preferred Stock agreed to either waive all outstanding defaults under
such securities or refrain from exercising any remedies with respect to any such
outstanding defaults for a period of 90 days from February 17, 1999. During such
period of time, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to have declared
effective a registration statement covering the resale of shares of common stock
underlying the Series B Preferred Stock and the warrants associated with the
preferred stock.

Had these transactions occurred in the three months ended January 31, 1999
shareholders' equity at such date would have been as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis relates to the financial condition and
results of operations of the Company for the three months ended January 31, 1999
and 1998. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company's
condensed consolidated financial statement appearing elsewhere in this document.
Except for historical information contained herein, the matters discussed below
contain forward looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties,
including but not limited to economic, governmental and technological factors
affecting the Company's operations, markets and profitability.

As a result of three acquisitions during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1998,
primarily the acquisition of MFS Network Technologies Inc. ("MFSNT"), material
changes exist in substantially all balance sheet and statements of operations
categories.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected elements of
the Company's condensed statements of operations as a percentage of its
revenues:

</TABLE>

                                       16
<PAGE>

REVENUES: For the quarter ended January 31, 1999, revenues increased $69.5
million over the same period in the prior year from $22.3 million to $91.8
million. These increases in revenue are due primarily to growth of the Company's
operations through the acquisition of MFSNT in the third quarter of fiscal 1998,
the acquisition of certain contracts from COMSAT RSI JEFA Wireless Systems
("COMSAT") and the acquisition of Patton Management Corporation ("Patton") in
the second quarter of fiscal 1998, as well as increased demands for services in
the traffic management and telecommunications industry.

COST OF REVENUES: As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased from
85.3% to 83.1% for the three months ended January 31, 1999, compared to the same
period in the prior year. The decreases are due to increased revenues related to
the acquisitions of MFSNT and COMSAT resulting in slightly higher margins.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses
increased $4.6 million, from $3.2 million to $7.8 million, for the three months
ended January 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the previous year. These
increases are due to the overall increase in the management structure, at the
corporate level as well as the division offices, necessary to support the
Company's increased revenues in accordance with the Company's strategic
objective of growth through acquisition and an increase in costs resulting from
the acquisition of MFSNT.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION: As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and
amortization expense decreased from 5.6% to 2.5% for the three months ended
January 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in the prior year. This
decrease, as a percentage of revenue, is due to the significant increase in
revenues which did not require the same percentage increase in capital assets to
support the operations of the Company.

INCOME (LOSS) FROM OPERATIONS: For the quarter ended January 31, 1999 income
from operations for the Company was $5.4 million compared to loss of $(1.2)
million in the quarter ended January 31, 1998.

OTHER EXPENSE NET: Other expense, net increased by $6.2 million to $6.0 for the
three month period ended January 31, 1999 as compared to $(0.2) million for the
comparable period in 1998. This increase is due to increased interest cost
relating to the acquisition of MFSNT and the Senior Notes issued in January 1998
in the amount of $2.5 million and changes in value of stock appreciation rights
(SAR's) in connection with the purchase of MFSNT in the amount of $3.4 million.
The SAR's are not exercisable until the earlier of June 1, 1999 or one business
day after the date upon which the potential issuance of Common Stock under the
MFSNT purchase agreement is voted upon by the shareholders of Able. The value
reflected in the charge to the statement of operations is based on a
determination of fair value listing the price of common stock on January 31,
1999 of $10.44. This value will be increased or decreased based on the fair
value of the SAR's utilzing the price of the Company's stock at each reporting
date until the stock appreciation rights are converted to options or exercised
by the holder.

INCOME TAXES: The Company has provided income taxes at a rate which approximates
the rate used when applying federal and state statutory rates to pre-tax income,
after adjusting for the amortization of nondeductible goodwill.

NET INCOME (LOSS): Net loss for the three months ended January 31, 1999
decreased $0.3 million from $(0.9) million in 1998 to $(0.6) million in 1999 for
the reasons described above.

INCOME (LOSS) APPLICABLE TO COMMON STOCK: Loss applicable to common stock was
$(0.8) million for the three months ending January 31, 1999 as compared to
$(1.1) million for the three months ended January 31, 1998, respectively. On a
diluted basis, income per share was $(.06) per share for the three months ended
January 31, 1999 as compared to $(.12) per share for the same period in 1998.

                                       17

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $7.3 million at January 31, 1999 compared to
$13.5 million at October 31, 1998.

Cash used in operating activities of $(5.2) million is a result of net loss
generated by the Company of $(0.6) million for the three month period, decreased
by depreciation and amortization charges of $2.3 million, $24.0 million for
increases in costs and profits in excess of billings/billings in excess of
costs, additional liability for stock appreciation rights in the amount of $9.3
million, offset by the increase of the current valuation of such rights in the
amount of $5.4 million, increases in accounts receivable of $20.6 million,
decreases in accounts payable of $15.7 million and other changes increasing
current assets by $3.8 million.

Cash used in investing activities of $(0.3) million is due to net capital
expenditures required to support increased operations and replacement of
existing equipment.

Cash used in financing activities of approximately $(0.7) million is due
primarily to net repayments of long term debt and other borrowings, dividends
paid on preferred stock and proceeds from the issuance of stock options.

In February 1999, WorldCom advanced the Company $32.0 million for the purposes
of arranging the purchase of 2,785 shares, or approximately 78 percent of the
Series B Preferred Stock and the purchase of the outstanding $10.0 million of
Senior Notes. This advance is due the earlier of (i) October 31, 2000 or (ii)
the dates of redemption and/or conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock or the
Senior Notes.

WorldCom has also agreed to make available additional advance to the Company of
up to $15.0 million against amounts otherwise payable pursuant to the WorldCom
Master Services Agreement, which, if advanced, would be due on October 31, 2000.

At the date of this filing, the Company has obtained all necessary waivers which
cover various defaults under the Company's financing and preferred stock
agreements.

                                       18
<PAGE>

The Company believes that is has available cash from operations, as well as from
the additional advance available from WorldCom described above, sufficient to
meet the Company's operating and capital requirements for the next twelve
months. Nonetheless, pursuant to the terms of the documents relating to the
Series B Preferred Stock, under certain circumstances, including without
limitation, if the registration statement that includes the shares of common
stock underlying the Series B Securities is not declared effective on or before
May 18, 1999, the Company is delisted under certain circumstances from any
securities exchange, or any representation or warranty by the Company to the
holders is not true and correct, then the holders of certain outstanding shares
of Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or part, have the option to require the
Company to redeem their securities at premium prices. Although the Company
intends to use its best efforts to comply with the provisions in the documents
relating to the Series B Preferred Stock, the failure of which would provide the
holder the right to exercise such redemption option, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to do so, in part, because certain of such matters
are dependent upon the efforts or approval of others (such as the Securities and
Exchange Commission with respect to the effectiveness of the aforementioned
registration statement). In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company
will not experience adverse operating results or other factors which could
materially increase its cash requirements or adversely affect its liquidity
position.

changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such
forward-looking statements.

YEAR 2000

The Company's business is dependent upon various computer software programs and
operating systems that utilize dates and process data beyond the year 2000. The
Company's actions to address the risks associated with the year 2000 are as
follows:

THE COMPANY'S STATE OF READINESS. The Company has established programs to
coordinate its year 2000 "Y2K" compliance efforts across all business functions
and geographic areas. The scope of the programs include addressing the risks
associated with the Company's (i) information technology "IT" systems (including
the Company's products and services), (ii) non-IT systems that include embedded
technology (e.g., equipment and other infrastructure), and (iii) significant
vendors and their Y2K readiness. The Company is utilizing the following steps in
executing its Y2K compliance program: 1) awareness, 2) assessment, 3)
renovation, 4) validation and testing, and 5) implementation. The Company has
completed the awareness and assessment steps for all areas.

IT SYSTEMS. The Company's most significant renovation effort involves the
conversion of substantially all of MFSNT's IT Systems. The Company believes it
will be substantially completed with its testing and implementation for all IT
Systems by October 31, 1999.

NON-IT SYSTEMS. The Company expects to have all of its mission critical non-IT
Systems Y2K compliant by October 31, 1999. The Company is currently formulating
its testing and implementation plans for its mission critical non-IT systems.

SIGNIFICANT VENDORS. As part of the Company's Y2K compliance program, the
Company has contacted its significant vendors to assess their Y2K readiness. For
all mission critical third party software embedded in or specified for use in
conjunction with the Company's IT systems and products, the Company's
communications with the vendors indicates that the vendors believe they will be
Y2K compliant by October 31, 1999. Such third party software is being tested in
conjunction with the testing of the IT systems and products discussed above.
There can be no assurance that i) the Company's significant vendors will succeed
in their Y2K compliance efforts, or ii) the failure of vendors to address year
2000 compliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business or results of operations.

THE COSTS TO ADDRESS THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUES. Since inception of its
program through January 31, 1999, the costs related to the Company's Y2K
compliance efforts were not material. The total estimated costs to complete the
Company's Y2K compliance effort are approximately $2.0 million. The estimated
costs to complete, which does not include any costs which may be incurred by the
Company if its significant vendors fail to timely address Y2K compliance, is
based on currently known circumstances and various assumptions regarding future
events. However, there can be no assurance that these estimates will be achieved
and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated.

                                       20
<PAGE>

THE RISKS OF THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUES. The Company's failure to timely
resolve the Y2K risks could result in system failures, the generation of
erroneous information, and other significant disruptions of business activities.
Although the Company believes it will be successful in its Y2K compliance
efforts, there can be no assurance that the Company's systems and products
contain all necessary date code changes. In addition, the Company's operations
may be at risk if its vendors and other third parties fail to adequately address
the Y2K issue or if software conversions result in system incompatibilities with
these third parties. To the extent that either the Company relies does not
achieve Y2K compliance, the Company's results of operations could be materially
adversely affected. Furthermore, it has been widely reported that a significant
amount of litigation surrounding business interruption will arise out of Y2K
issues. It is uncertain whether, or to what extent, the Company may be affected
by such litigation.

THE COMPANY'S CONTINGENCY PLAN. The Company has not yet developed a
comprehensive contingency plan to address the situation that may result if the
Company or its vendors are unable to achieve Y2K compliance for its critical
operations. During fiscal 1999, based upon the status of the Company's Y2K
compliance efforts at that time and the Company's perceived risks to critical
business operations, the Company plans to evaluate what areas the Company
believes a contingency plan may be necessary, and execute such contingency plan
if warranted. The i) inability to timely implement such a plan, if deemed
necessary, and ii) the cost to develop and implement such a plan, may have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. Except for
statements of existing or historical facts, the foregoing discussion of Y2K
consists of forward-looking statements and assumptions relating to
forward-looking statements, including without limitation the statements relating
to future costs, the timetable for completion of Y2K compliance efforts,
potential problems relating to Y2K, the Company's state of readiness, third
party representations, and the Company's plans and objectives for addressing Y2K
problems. Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from
the Company's expectations, including without limitation (i) the failure of
vendors and service providers to timely achieve Y2K compliance, (ii) system
incompatibilities with third parties resulting from software conversion, (iii)
the Company's systems and products not containing all necessary date code
changes, (iv) the failure of existing or future clients to achieve Y2K
compliance, (v) potential litigation arising out of Y2K issues, the risk of
which may be greater for information technology based service providers such as
the Company, (vi) the failure of the Company's validation and testing phase to
detect operational problems internal to the Company, in the Company's products
or services or in the Company's interface with service providers, vendors or
clients, whether such failure results from the technical inadequacy of the
Company's validation and testing efforts, the technological infeasibility of
conducting all available testing, or the unavailability of third parties to
participate in testing, or (vii) the failure to timely implement a contingency
plan to the extent Y2K compliance is not achieved.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on debt
obligations that impact the fair value of these obligations. The Company's
policy is to manage interest rates through a combination of fixed and variable
rate debt. Currently, the Company does not use derivative financial instruments
to manage its interest rate risk. The table below provides information about the
Company's risk exposure associated with changing interest rates (amounts in
thousands):

</TABLE>

The Company has no cash flow exposure due to interest rate changes for its fixed
debt obligations. All of the Company's debt is non-trading. The fair value of
the Company's debt approximates its carrying value.

Although the Company conducts business in foreign countries, the international
operations were not material to the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows as of January 31, 1999. Additionally,
foreign currency transaction gains and losses were not material to the Company's
results of operations for the three months ended January 31, 1999. Accordingly,
the Company was not subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risk from
the effects that exchange rate movements of foreign currencies would have on the
Company's future costs or on future cash flows it would receive from its foreign
subsidiaries. To date, the Company has not entered into any significant foreign
currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to
hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

During the three months ended January 31, 1999, the Company was in violation of
the payment terms of its $10.0 million principal amount 12 percent Senior
Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Notes"). As was reported in the Company's 10-K/A
for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1998 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 1, 1999 (the "Form 10-K/A"), these Senior Notes
were purchased from the holders effective February 17, 1999. 

During the three months ended January 31, 1999, the Company was also in default
of certain provisions of its Series B Preferred Stock. Such default resulted
from the Company's failure to have a registration statement

                                       22
<PAGE>

registering the common stock underlying the Series B Preferred Stock and certain
related warrants declared effective by December 27, 1998. Such default gave the
holders of the Series B Preferred Stock the option to require the Company to
redeem their securities at premium prices. During the quarter ended January 31,
1999, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock notified the Company of their
intent to exercise such redemption right; however, such notice has been
withdrawn. As was reported in the Form 10-K/A, subsequent to January 31, 1999,
approximately 78 percent of the Series B Preferred Stock was purchased from the
original holders and, in connection with such purchase, the Company was given
until May 18, 1999 to effect the registration described above. For a further
description of the transactions engaged in with respect to the Series B
Preferred Stock, the reader is referred to the Form 10-K/A.
