In addition, $228,014.53 in interest charges will also be removed from the books of the company, for a total reduction of $702,715.81. The full effect of these changes will be reflected in the quarterly financial statements that will be filed by the company for its second quarter that ends on Aug. 31, 2000 and subject to the review and acceptance of these results by the company's auditor. The majority of these debts were older operational claims that remained from the period prior to 1996 and related solely to the operations of the company in the state of Colorado. These figures represent a 44 percent decline in the amount of liabilities from discontinued operations carried by the company and reflect current success in an ongoing effort to resolve the remaining liabilities.
