   LITIGATION RELEASE NO. 16695 / September 11, 2000

   SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION v. KENNETH STEINER AND WOODBRIDGE
   FAMILY MEDICAL ASSOCIATES, P.C., Civil Action No. 00-02145 (D.D.C.)

   NEW JERSEY DOCTOR AND HIS MEDICAL PRACTICE PAY $1.3 MILLION TO SETTLE
   SEC CHARGES OF SELLING UNREGISTERED SYSTEMS OF EXCELLENCE SECURITIES

   The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that on
   September 8, 2000 the Honorable Gladys Kessler of the United States
   District Court for the District of Columbia entered final judgments
   against Kenneth Steiner ("Steiner"), a New Jersey physician, and his
   medical practice, Woodbridge Family Medical Associates, P.C.
   ("Woodbridge"), requiring them to collectively pay over $1.3 million
   in disgorgement, prejudgment interest and civil penalties.

   The Commission's complaint, filed on September 7, 2000, alleges that
   in two separate transactions in March and June 1996, Steiner acquired
   -- for himself, his corporate medical practice and in the names of
   family nominees -- a total of 689,655 shares of newly-issued Systems
   of Excellence, Inc. ("SOE") stock in a private placement at a total
   cost of $200,000. The shares that Steiner and Woodbridge acquired were
   neither registered nor exempt from registration but were nevertheless
   conveyed to them without the required restrictive legend as part of a
   scheme orchestrated by Charles Huttoe, former president of SOE, to
   manipulate the market for SOE securities. According to the complaint,
   Steiner and Woodbridge soon resold nearly all of these newly-issued
   and unregistered shares into the manipulated market, realizing net
   profits of $924,789.

   Simultaneously with the filing of the Complaint, Steiner and
   Woodbridge, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations,
   settled the action by consenting to entry of the court's Order that
   (i) permanently enjoins them from violating Sections 5(a) and (c) of
   the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) requires Steiner to disgorge his
   illegal profits of $602,648, plus prejudgment interest of $220,433;
   (iii) requires Woodbridge and Steiner to jointly and severally
   disgorge $322,141, plus prejudgment interest of $111,376; and (iv)
   requires Steiner to pay a civil penalty of $50,000.

   With the filing of this Complaint, and the subsequent payment by
   Steiner and Woodbridge, the Commission will have collected
   approximately $12 million in disgorgement, which will later be
   distributed by the Court-appointed receiver to victims of the SOE
   fraud.
