AHT, a national provider of Internet-based healthcare e-commerce among physicians, other healthcare providers and healthcare organizations, voluntarily filed for bankruptcy protection in September of this year, and the assets acquired by Cybear include all of AHT's patents, licenses and trademarks, and current client contracts. The acquisition arose out of the $4 million secured loan that Cybear made to AHT in March 2000. For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, Cybear reserved the full amount of this note due to the uncertainty of collection resulting from the AHT bankruptcy filing. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, which was approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court on November 22, 2000, an independent valuation will determine the value of the assets acquired by Cybear, and the amount, if any, of Cybear's deficiency claim against AHT. Any deficiency claim will attach as a first senior lien and security interest against all of the remaining assets of AHT, including proceeds from the litigation An action brought in court to enforce a particular right.

While it is unfortunate that AHT was forced to file for bankruptcy, we view the acquisition of their assets as an opportunity to capitalize on the strengths of both companies.
