SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

             Litigation Release No. 15958 / October 27, 1998

             S.E.C. v. The Future Superstock, Inc. and Jeffrey C. Bruss,
             Docket No. 98C6772 (U.S.D.C., N.D.Ill.)

                  The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the
             filing of a Complaint in the United States District Court
             for the Northern District of Illinois, on October 27, 1998,
             seeking a permanent injunction, disgorgement, civil
             penalties and other relief against The Future Superstock,
             Inc. ("FSS") and Jeffrey C. Bruss.

                  The Complaint alleges that since the spring of 1996, an
             Internet newsletter called The Future Superstock, which is
             published by FSS and researched and written by Bruss, has
             recommended to the newsletter's more than 100,000
             subscribers and to visitors to the newsletter's web site
             (www.futuresuperstock..com) the purchase of approximately 25
             microcap stocks which were predicted to double or triple in
             the next three to twelve months.  In most instances, the
             prices of recommended securities increased for a short
             period of time after a recommendation was made in The Future
             Superstock, after which the prices of those stocks dropped
             substantially.  It is alleged that in making these
             recommendations FSS and Bruss have violated the federal
             securities laws by failing to provide adequate disclosure in
             a number of significant areas:  (1) for over two years
             neither the newsletter nor the web site disclosed that Bruss
             or FSS received compensation, in cash and stock, from nearly
             every issuer profiled; (2) FSS and Bruss have failed to
             disclose that in many instances they have sold stock in the
             issuer shortly after the dissemination of a recommendation
             in The Future Superstock caused its price to rise; (3) FSS
             and Bruss have represented in the profiles that they
             performed independent research and analysis in evaluating
             the issuers profiled by the newsletter when, in fact,
             little, if any, research was conducted in preparing the
             profiles; and (4) the statements made in the profiles
             regarding the success of past stock picks made in The Future
             Superstock have been false and misleading.

                  It is alleged that by engaging in such conduct FSS and
             Bruss have violated Sections 17(a) and 17(b) of the
             Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities
             Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.
