         ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

         As earlier  reported,  the Company and the  principals of Gedanken  (now Applied  Knowledge
Systems, Inc., "AKSI") are disputing the1996 Licensing Agreement,  under which the Company maintains
it has the exclusive  worldwide  rights to the Gedanken  Translation  System.  In November 2001, the
company  filed a demand with the American  Arbitration  Association  pursuant to the 1996  Licensing
Agreement.  Hearings  were to  commence  in  September  of 2002,  however  they were  suspended  for
Gedanken's  failure to pay the AAA fees.  The Company  filed a motion with the AAA to terminate  the
proceedings,  and the  matter is being  held in  abeyance,  pending  AAA's  receipt of fees or Court
intervention.

         On November 18, 2003, the Company filed a Complaint  against  Gedanken in Federal Court and
is in the process of serving the defendants.  The Complaint,  which was filed in Camden, New Jersey,
alleges Patent Infringement, Breach of Contract, Unjust Enrichment, Misrepresentation, and Breach of
Fiduciary Duties, as well as various claims against Gedanken's attorneys.
