SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
                              WASHINGTON, D.C.

     LITIGATION RELEASE No. 15453/August 21, 1997

     SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION V. TIXMAX I GENERAL PARTNERSHIP, ET AL.,
     Civil Action No. C-96-01038-CW (N.D. Cal. March 20, 1995)

          On February 18, 1997, the Honorable Claudia Wilken, United States
     District Court Judge, entered Final Judgments of Permanent Injunction
     against defendants TixMax I General Partnership, FMJ Financial Group, Inc.,
     Norman J. Follis, Andrei S. Melchner, Allan R. Jamieson and Intervise, Inc.
     (collectively, "defendants").  

          The Final Judgments order Follis, Jamieson and Melchner to pay
     disgorgement in the amounts of $23,000, $15,662 and $29,800, respectively,
     plus prejudgment interest, payment of which is waived by the Court based
     upon their sworn representations of their inability to pay contained in
     their respective Statements of Financial Condition.  Based upon their
     representations in their Statements of Financial Condition, the Court did
     not order defendants to pay civil penalties.

          This action involved the alleged fraudulent offer and sale of general
     partnership interests by the defendants.  The Permanent Injunctions
     permanently enjoin the defendants from future violations of the antifraud
     and registration provisions of the federal securities laws.
