Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of
the Company's deferred tax assets (liabilities) are as follows:

On July 1, 1998, the Company changed its tax status, as defined by the Internal
Revenue Code, to Subchapter S, which eliminated the requirement for the Company
to pay federal income taxes as net income is passed through and taxable to the
individual stockholders. A state provision for income taxes will be recorded
based on a California statutory rate of 1.5% for Subchapter S Corporations.

9. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. The Company has completed
an assessment of their IT systems as well as the software and hardware sold to
its customers noting that they are Year 2000 compliant. The Company's IT systems
primarily consist of its financial reporting system. In July 1998, the Company
purchased and implemented a Year 2000 compliant financial reporting software
package totaling $42,000. The Company's non-IT systems primarily consist of
heating, sprinklers and security equipment at the Company's facilities. The
Company will complete its review and remediation of its non-IT systems and its
IT systems other than the financial reporting system by October 1, 1999. The
Company estimates that the total remaining costs to complete any required
modifications, upgrades or replacements of its IT and non-IT systems will not
have a material adverse effect on its business or results of operations. The
Company has obtained Year 2000 compliant certification letters from its major
software and hardware vendors noting that their software and hardware sold by
the Company are Year 2000 compliant. However, the failure of the Company's other
vendors and suppliers to be fully Year 2000 compliant with regards to their
products by January 1, 2000 could result in interruptions in the Company's
normal business work operations. The Company is currently developing contingency
plans to address the year 2000 issues that may pose a significant risk to the
Company's ongoing operations. The Company expects to complete the contingency
plans by October 31, 1999.
