Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         Operating capital of NTOF was used to purchase the shares of Series D
Preferred Stock and Warrants issued to NTOF pursuant to the transaction
described in Item 4 below.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

     On August 14, 2001, NTOF, the Issuer and certain other parties executed a
Securities Exchange and Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") whereby NTOF
would invest $5 million in cash in exchange for 50,000 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock of the Issuer and warrants ("Warrants") to purchase an aggregate
of 84,100,980 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 50% of the Issuer's fully
diluted Common Stock. The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement
were effective as of September 5, 2001, subject to certain post-closing
conditions. Although the Warrants are immediately exercisable, the Company
currently does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock
to issue upon exercise of the Warrants. Therefore, before the Warrants may be
exercised by NTOF, shareholder approval must be obtained to, among other things,
approve an amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation to increase the
number of authorized shares of Common Stock and decrease the stated par value of
the Common Stock. A copy of the Purchase Agreement and Post-Closing Agreement
related thereto are attached hereto as Exhibits B and F, respectively. A copy of
the Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

     The Certificate of Designations for the Series D Preferred Stock of the
Issuer provides, among other things, for special voting rights upon failure to
receive shareholder approval in connection with the matters contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement. These voting rights provide that upon failure to receive the
requisite shareholder approval by December 31, 2001, then, from and after
January 1, 2002, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled
(i) except as otherwise provided by applicable law, to vote as a separate class
on all matters on which any shareholder of the Issuer are entitled to vote or to
consent: and (ii) to vote together with the holders of Common Stock on all
matters on which any holder of Common Stock is entitled to vote or to consent,
with each share of Series D Preferred Stock being entitled to 250 votes per
share. A copy of the Certificate of Designation for the Series D Preferred Stock
is attached hereto as Exhibit E.

     NTOF, the Issuer and certain other parties also executed a Shareholders
Agreement ("Shareholders Agreement") on August 14, 2001 which, among other
things, provides that for so long as NTOF owns any capital stock of the Issuer,
NTOF shall have the right to designate three of the five directors of the
Issuer. In addition, under certain circumstances, NTOF may have the right to
designate one additional director to the Board. The Shareholders Agreement also
contains a voting agreement whereby NTOF and certain other shareholders have
agreed to vote all shares owned or later acquired by such shareholders so that
at all times the persons designated to serve as members of the Board of
Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement will be
elected and remain members of the Board of Directors. A copy of the Shareholders
Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

     On September 4, 2001, as a material inducement to consummating the
transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, NTOF and Larry Martin, a
shareholder of the Issuer ("Martin"), executed a Voting Agreement and
Irrevocable Proxy ("Martin Voting Agreement") whereby Martin has agreed (i) not
to transfer or otherwise dispose of the 3,166,694 shares of Common Stock
presently owned by him, as well as any shares of Common Stock purchased by him
after the date of execution of the Martin Voting Agreement, and (ii) to vote
such shares of Common Stock so as to facilitate the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the approval of
the amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock and decreasing the stated par value of the
Common Stock. Martin has granted an irrevocable proxy to Hollingsworth and
Sweetser to vote Martin's shares of Common Stock in connection with and in favor
of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Martin
Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

     On September 10, 2001, as a material inducement to consummating the
transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, NTOF and Gruber & McBaine
Capital Management, a beneficial owner of the Issuer's Common Stock ("Gruber &
McBaine"), executed a Voting Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy ("Gruber & McBaine
Voting Agreement") whereby Gruber & McBaine has agreed (i) not to transfer or
otherwise dispose of the 767,400 shares of Common Stock over which it has
disposition power, as well as any shares of Common Stock that it purchases after
the date of execution of the Gruber & McBaine Voting Agreement, and (ii) to vote
such shares of Common Stock so as to facilitate the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the approval of
the amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock and decreasing the stated par value of the
Common Stock. Gruber & McBaine has granted an irrevocable proxy to Hollingsworth
and Sweetser to vote its shares of Common Stock in connection with and in favor
of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Gruber
& McBaine Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit G.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer

        (a) The Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of 3,934,094 shares
of Common Stock of the Issuer. This holding represents approximately 47% of the
total of 8,410,098 shares of Common Stock currently outstanding (according to
information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer).

        (b) The Reporting Persons have the shared power to vote or direct the
vote of 3,934,094 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons do

Common Stock of the Issuer.

        (c) Except as disclosed above in response to Item 4, there have been no
transactions in shares of Common Stock by the Reporting Persons.

        (d) Larry Martin has the right to receive and power to direct receipt of
dividends, or the proceeds from the sale of 3,166,694 shares of Common Stock of
the Issuer. Gruber & McBaine Capital Management is a registered investment
adviser whose clients have the right to receive and power to direct receipt of
dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale, of 767,400 shares of Common
Stock of the Issuer.
