During the last five years, neither Anjou nor, to the best of

The source of the funds used to finance the acquisitions reported
by this Amendment No. 16 was working capital. The total amount of such funds
was $2,196,250.00, exclusive of brokerage commissions.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Shares purchased by CGE and Anjou to the date hereof were
acquired, and are being held, as an investment. Neither CGE nor Anjou has any
present plans or proposals which may relate to or would result in:
(a) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(b) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) Any change in the present board of directors or
management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number
or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(d) Any material change in the present capitalization or
dividend policy of the Issuer;
(e) Any other material change in the Issuer's business or
corporate structure;
(f) Changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments
corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of
control of the Issuer by any person;
(g) A class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a
national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(h) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming
eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the
Act; or
(i) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
As a result of the sale by the Issuer of 1,100,000 newly issued
Shares on April 21, 1993, CGE's ownership percentage of the outstanding Shares
was reduced from approximately 15.1% to approximately 13.3%. CGE presently
intends, depending upon market conditions and share prices, to acquire (either
directly or through a subsidiary, including Anjou) additional Shares from time
to time in the open market or in negotiated transactions or both to increase
its ownership percentage of the outstanding Shares. CGE has advised the Issuer
that such purchases of Shares will be solely for investment purposes. CGE
filed a Premerger Notification and Report Form with the Federal Trade
Commission and the Department of Justice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976 stating its intention to purchase additional Shares,
which purchases will result in CGE holding at least 15% of the outstanding
Shares. CGE intends to review its
Page 5 of 16
6
investment position in the Issuer periodically and, depending on such review
and the Issuer's business, prospects and future developments, CGE may seek to
acquire further Shares or may sell its Shares.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) As of May 26, 1994, CGE was the owner of 1,493,600 Shares
constituting approximately 13.1% of the outstanding Shares (based upon
11,404,928 Shares outstanding as calculated above). To the best knowledge of
CGE, no director or executive officer owns or has any right to acquire,
directly or indirectly, any Shares.
As of May 26, 1994, Anjou was the owner of 120,000 Shares
constituting approximately 1.0% of the outstanding Shares (based upon
11,404,928 Shares outstanding as calculated above). To the best knowledge of
Anjou, no director or executive officer of Anjou International Company owns or
has any right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any Shares.
As of May 26, 1994, CGE and Anjou were the beneficial owners of
1,613,600 Shares constituting approximately 14.1% of the outstanding Shares
(based upon 11,404,928 Shares outstanding as calculated above).
(b) CGE has the sole power to vote or direct the disposition of
1,493,600 Shares. CGE has the shared power to vote or direct the disposition
of 120,000 Shares. Anjou has the shared power to vote or direct the
