The reason for the filing of this Amendment No. 3 to the
previously filed Schedule 13D is to show that the holdings of
Mr. Haber have decreased from 8.7% to 4.8% as a result of selling
shares and Mr. Haber losing investment discretion over a managed
account.
Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
No change.
Item 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
No change.
Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
As of the date hereof, Mr. Haber is deemed to
beneficially own 146,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
(the "Shares"). The Shares are held by the Partnership, the
offshore funds, and the managed accounts over which Mr. Haber has
investment discretion. The funds for the purchase of Shares held
in the Partnership, of which Mr. Haber is the sole General
Partner, came from capital contributions to the Partnership by
its general and limited partners. The funds for the purchase of
the shares held in the offshore funds, over which Mr. Haber has
investment discretion, came from the offshore fund's
shareholders. The funds for the purchase of the Shares held in
the managed accounts, over which Mr. Haber has investment
discretion, came from each managed account's own funds. No
leverage was used to purchase the Shares.

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
The Shares owned by Mr. Haber were acquired for, and are
being held for, investment purposes. Mr. Haber may acquire
additional shares of Common Stock, dispose of all or some of the
Shares from time to time, in each case in open market
transactions, block sales or purchases or otherwise, or may
continue to hold the Shares.
Mr. Haber does not have any plan or proposal which
relates to, or would result in, any of the actions enumerated in
Item 4 of the instructions to Schedule 13D. However, Mr. Haber
reserves the right to discuss company business with management,
make proposals to management and/or take other actions to
influence the management of the Company should he deem such
actions appropriate.
Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
As of the date hereof, Mr. Haber is deemed to be the
beneficial owner of 146,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
Based on information provided by the management of the Company,
there are believed to be approximately 3,000,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock outstanding. Therefore, Mr. Haber
beneficially owns 4.8% of the Company's outstanding shares of
Common Stock. Mr. Haber has the power to vote, direct the vote,
dispose of or direct the disposition of all the shares of the
Company's Common Stock that he is currently deemed to
beneficially own.
