                  -------------------------------------------------

                  The following is added to the response to Item 3:

                  On October 14, 2003, following delivery by Holdings and its
assignees of written notice pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on October 8,
2003 (the "Option Exercise Notice"), as more fully described in Item 4 below,
pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement (as modified by the Assignment
Letter Agreement and the TransTech Assignment Letter Agreement (as defined
below)), the Reporting Persons (other than TransTech) acquired certain
securities of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $2,010,905, which
funds were obtained from cash on hand.

                  On October 14, 2003, following delivery by Holdings and its
assignees of the Option Exercise Notice, as more fully described in Item 4
below, pursuant to the terms of the Assignment Letter Agreement and the
Purchase Agreement, Barry F. Schwartz, Executive Vice President and General
Counsel of Mafco and Holdings, and Todd J. Slotkin, Executive Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer of Mafco and Holdings and a Director of TransTech,
each acquired certain securities of the Company for a purchase price of
approximately $45,000, which funds were obtained from personal funds.

                  On October 8, 2003, as more fully described in Item 4 below,
the Reporting Persons exercised their option to purchase additional securities
of the Company for an aggregate amount of $6,840,595, subject to the
conditions described in Item 4 below, which funds (i) Mafco and Holdings
expect to obtain from cash on hand, and (ii) TransTech expects to obtain from
the proceeds of a private placement of its equity securities.

Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.
                  ----------------------

                  The following is added to the response to Item 4:

                  On October 8, 2003, the Company, Holdings and TransTech
entered into a Letter Agreement (the "TransTech Assignment Letter Agreement"),
pursuant to which Holdings assigned to TransTech a portion of the Option under
the Purchase Agreement to purchase certain shares of Common Stock and
Warrants. See Item 6.

                  On October 14, 2003, following delivery by Holdings and
its assignees of the Option Exercise Notice, (A) Holdings acquired from the
Company (x) 1,396,462 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.44 per share
and (y) a Warrant (the "Tranche B-1 Warrant"), for no additional
consideration, to purchase 698,232 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate
purchase price of $2,010,905, and (B) Messrs. Schwartz and Slotkin each
purchased (x) 31,250 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.44 per share
and (y) a Warrant, for no additional consideration, to purchase 15,625
shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $45,000. A copy
of the Option Exercise Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 13 and a copy
of the Tranche B-1 Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit 14. The
descriptions of the Option Exercise Notice and the Tranche B-1


                                 Page 6 of 16


Warrant are qualified in their entirety by reference to
the Option Exercise Notice and the Tranche B-1 Warrant, respectively.

                  In addition, pursuant to the Option Exercise Notice, (A)
Holdings also exercised the remaining portion of its Option to purchase (x)
1,278,191 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.44 per share and (y) a
Warrant (the "Tranche B-2 Warrant"), for no additional consideration, to
purchase 639,095 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,840,595, and (B) TransTech exercised the portion of the Option assigned to
it pursuant to the TransTech Assignment Letter Agreement (the "TransTech
Option") to purchase (x) 3,472,222 shares (the "TransTech Shares") of Common
Stock at a price of $1.44 per share and (y) a Warrant (the "TransTech
Warrant"), for no additional consideration, to purchase 1,736,111 shares of
Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $5,000,000. The closing for
the transactions described in this paragraph will only take place following
the approval of the Company's stockholders required by Rule 4350.

                  The TransTech Assignment Letter Agreement amended the
provision of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the appointment of
individuals to the Board of Directors of the Company to provide that at such
time as Holdings and TransTech have invested an aggregate of $5,000,000 or
more in Common Stock and, with respect to the Holdings Representative (as
defined below), for so long as Holdings, together with its affiliates (other
than TransTech), beneficially owns at least 1,700,000 shares of Common Stock
(as appropriately adjusted for any stock split, combination, reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock distribution or
similar event), and, with respect to the TransTech Representative (as defined
below), for so long as TransTech, together with its affiliates (other than
Holdings, its officers or affiliates), beneficially owns at least 1,700,000
shares of Common Stock (as appropriately adjusted for any stock split,
combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock
dividend, stock distribution or similar event), the Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to appoint to its Board of Directors one individual
designated by Holdings (the "Holdings Representative") and one individual
designated by TransTech (the "TransTech Representative" and together with the
Holdings Representative, the "Investor Representatives"). The initial Investor
Representatives are to be those individuals that are designated by Holdings or
TransTech, as the case may be, following fulfillment of the conditions
described in this paragraph, and they are to serve until their successors are
duly elected. Thereafter, the Investor Representatives are to be elected at
the same time as other members of the Company's Board of Directors. If for any
reason the Holdings Representative or the TransTech Representative resigns or
is otherwise removed from the Company's Board of Directors, then the Company
will use its reasonable best efforts to appoint, as his or her replacement,
the individual designated by Holdings or TransTech, as the case may be.

Item 5.           Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
                  ------------------------------------

                  The response to Item 5(a) - (b) is amended by deleting the
first, second and fifth paragraphs thereof and substituting the following in
lieu thereof:


                                 Page 7 of 16


                  Based upon information contained in the Company's Quarterly
Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, there were
17,149,682 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 13, 2003.

                  As a result of the transactions described in Item 4, the
Reporting Persons (other than TransTech) may be deemed to share beneficial
ownership of 5,535,385 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately
25.6% of the Common Stock deemed to be outstanding as of October 14, 2003
(which includes certain shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially
owned by the Reporting Persons (other than TransTech) but not outstanding).
The Reporting Persons (other than TransTech) have shared power to vote and
dispose of the shares of Common Stock that they own or, in the case of
certain securities, would own upon issuance following the approval of the
Company's stockholders pursuant to Rule 4350, and exercise of the Warrants
held by such Reporting Persons.

                  In addition, TransTech may be deemed to have beneficial
ownership of 5,208,333 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately
21.8% of the Common Stock deemed to be outstanding as of October 14, 2003
(which includes certain shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned
by TransTech but not outstanding). TransTech would have sole power to vote and
dispose of such shares of Common Stock upon issuance, following the approval
of the Company's stockholders pursuant to Rule 4350, of the TransTech Shares
and exercise of the TransTech Warrant.

                  As a result of the transactions described in Item 4, as of
October 14, 2003, Messrs. Schwartz and Slotkin may each be deemed to have
