service provider of, MasterCard and an independent sales organization of VISA. These designations are dependent upon our being sponsored by member clearing banks of both organizations and our continuing adherence to the standards of the VISA and
MasterCard associations. The member financial institutions of VISA and MasterCard, some of which are our competitors, set the standards with which we must comply. If we fail to comply with these standards, our designation as a certified processor, a
member service provider or as an independent sales organization could be suspended or terminated. The termination of our member service provider status or our status as a certified processor, or any changes in the VISA and MasterCard rules that
prevent our registration or otherwise limit our ability to provide transaction processing and marketing services for the VISA or MasterCard organizations would most likely result in the loss of merchant customers and lead to a reduction in our

interest rate based on Canadian Dollar LIBOR (C$LIBOR). This rate will fluctuate with market rates, and if it increases, our cost of capital will also increase which will reduce our earnings from operations. The credit facility was scheduled to
expire on December 9, 2003 but its expiration date has been extended until July 30, 2004. The credit facility is renewable only at the consent of CIBC. Should CIBC choose not to renew the credit facility, we will have to find alternative financing
or fund the Canadian merchants ourselves. We are currently negotiating the syndication of this facility among CIBC and a group of U.S. lenders and expect to receive future periodic extensions until we complete the syndication. We expect to complete
the syndication by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 and expect that the credit facility will have a minimum term of 364 days and will be renewable annually. We may not have the cash flow necessary to fund the Canadian merchants
ourselves, and we may lose those customers as a result. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

by technological change, new product introductions, evolving industry standards and changing customer needs. In order to remain competitive, we are continually involved in a number of research and development projects. These projects carry the risks
associated with any research and development effort, including cost overruns, delays in delivery and performance problems, but in the electronic payments and consumer money transfer markets these risks are even more acute. Our markets are constantly
experiencing rapid technological change. Any delay in the delivery of new products or services could render them less desirable by our customers, or possibly even obsolete. In addition, the products and services we deliver to the electronic payments

product or service could result in significant processing or reporting errors. As a result of these factors, our research and development efforts could result in increased costs that could reduce our operating profit, a loss of revenue if promised
new products are not timely delivered to our customers, or a loss of revenue or possible claims for damages if new products and services do not perform as anticipated. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

financial condition, including in particular, our business strategy and means to implement our strategy, the amount of future capital expenditures, our success in developing and introducing new products and expanding our business, the successful
integration of future acquisitions, and the timing of the introduction of new and modified products or services. You can sometimes identify forward looking-statements by our use of the words &#147;may,&#148; &#147;could,&#148; &#147;should,&#148;

achieved. Our actual revenues, revenue growth rates and margins, other results of operation and shareholder values could differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements as a result of many known and unknown factors, many
of which are beyond our ability to predict or control. These factors include, but are not limited to, those set forth on pages 3-8 of this prospectus, those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and those set forth in our press releases,
reports and other filings made with the SEC. These cautionary statements qualify all of our forward-looking statements and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. </FONT></P> <P

prevailing at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. The selling shareholder has advised us that it has not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any
