John, Appreciate your continuing efforts on this board. Thought I'd take a stab at the first one on the April list, FAVE. Makes for interesting reading, including an interest from celebrity Ivana Trump, who has been the chairman of the Board.tel-com.net The company has never made money:yahoo.marketguide.com The company recently filed a NT-10K. this seems to be a regular event for this company:freeedgar.com There is a small SI board for FAVE. Very little cash. Datek's NS status. Ratios pooryahoo.marketguide.com There is a complex relationship between the principle insider owner, Melvin Rosen, and the company. He is the principle inside shareholder and has a complex (for me :-))Debenture agreement. Also some loans. Sorry John, but I'll have to defer to you, the SEC-meister on this one."). Effective May 19, 1997, the Company issued to the Reporting Person (i) 180,000 shares of Common Stock (the "New Shares"), (ii) a Secured Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $2,000,000 ("Debenture"), and (iii) warrants ("Warrants") to purchase (a) 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, and (b) 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (all of the 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock underlying such Warrants are collectively referred to as the "Warrant Shares"). The New Shares, the Debenture and the Warrants were issued pursuant to the terms of a Debt Restructuring Agreement ("Restructuring Agreement") dated effective May 19, 1997, in connection with the restructuring of indebtedness evidenced by a promissory note dated February 23, 1996, in the principal amount of $2,000,000 issued by the Company. The Debenture matures and is payable in full on May 19, 1998, subject to optional extension by either the Company or the Reporting Person on certain terms and conditions. The Debenture is convertible into shares of Common Stock ("Debenture Shares") at any time prior to payment at a conversion rate which is equal to the lesser or (i) $0.50 per share, or (ii) the average of the closing "bid" prices for the Company's Common Stock as quoted on NASDAQ for the five days immediately preceding the date of conversion. This might be a good one to short befor the 10-K comes out. Look for ward to your comments. I couldn't find out what made the price spike up in November--no press releases or other hype. Ocote
