ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

BLM owns 71.4% of the outstanding voting stock of ILTS.

ILTS has entered into sales agreement to supply terminals, spares and services to entities in which BLM has a significant equity interest. Revenues related to these agreements totaled $4.6 million for the year ended April 30, 2002. Included in accounts receivable was $68,000 at April 30, 2002.

During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with BLM (1996 Agreement) to purchase specific inventory on behalf of BLM. Title to the inventory purchased resides with BLM. ILTS has a related party liability of $348,000 representing unpaid proceeds to BLM of BLM inventory sold to third-parties as of April 30, 2002.

In November 2001, a purchase order was received under the 1996 Agreement to supply Philippine Gaming Management Corporation (PGMC) with terminals. The sale generated limited cash to the Company, but decreased the amount of inventory purchased on behalf of BLM referenced above. Proceeds from the sale of terminals to PGMC were paid directly to BLM to reduce the BLM liability. PGMC also purchased an additional $251,000 in spare parts for the year ending April 30, 2002.

In November 2000, the Company and Sports Toto Malaysia (STM), a related party and also an affiliate of BLM, executed an agreement for the Company to supply an on-line lottery system and services to STM for $8.1 million. The system went live in August 2002. Revenues totaling $3.7 million were recognized on this contract in the fiscal year ending April 30, 2002. There was no outstanding accounts receivable as of April 30, 2002 on this contract.

On February 12, 2001, the Affiliations Committee of the Board approved a $1.5 million unsecured loan to BLM at an interest rate of 9% per annum. The note was due on August 13, 2001. In August 2001, the Affiliations Committee approved the extension of the $1.5 million note receivable from BLM to February 14, 2002. As specified under the note agreement, the extension requires the pledge of a security (in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock) to be placed in escrow equal in value to twice the amount of the note on the date of extension. The escrow agreement and amendment to promissory note, corporate guarantee and security arrangement were executed on October 15, 2001. The pledge included 4,579,341 Company shares valued at $4.9 million as of January 31, 2002. An extension of the note (Note Extension) until February 14, 2003 (Amended Due Date) was executed on March 11, 2002. The Note Extension provides that accrued interest will be paid within ten days after the execution of the Note Extension and future interest payments will be paid quarterly. The Note Extension also provides that the Company, may at any time prior to the Amended Due Date, sell or pledge the Note together with transferring the Company shares in escrow. The market value of the escrowed shares held as collateral under the note is $4.6 million at April 30, 2002.
