On December 6, 1996 the Securities and Exchange Commission
("Commission") issued an order postponing these proceedings at the
request of the District Attorney of the County of New York to permit
the grand jury impaneled by the District Attorney to complete its
investigation into the conduct of the respondents in this action and
to file any resulting indictments. Since that time, respondents Andrew
Bressman, Roman Okin, Richard Acosta, Richard Simone, Mark Goldman and
Jack Wolynez have been indicted by the grand jury and criminally
convicted in connection with their activities while employed at A.R.

respondents Bressman, Okin and Simone and issued orders making
findings and imposing sanctions and other relief as to these
respondents.
