for the Units,  Brounstein  surrendered  $40,000 of a bridge note owed to him by
the Issuer  and  forgave  $34,000  in  principal  amount of a loan  extended  by
Brounstein to the Issuer in 1995.

Item     Purpose of Transactions

                  Brounstein's  wife,  Ellen   Brounstein,  and  son,  Alexander
Brounstein, have acquired the securities specified in Item 5(c) of this Schedule
13D for  investment  purposes.  Brounstein  may acquire or dispose of additional
shares of the Issuer,  but does not  presently  intend to do so,  although  this
intention may change depending upon market conditions. Brounstein has no present
plans  which  relate  to  or  would  result  in:  an   extraordinary   corporate
transaction,  such as a merger,  reorganization  or  liquidation,  involving the
Issuer or any of its  subsidiaries;  a sale or transfer of a material  amount of
assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; any change in the present board
of directors or  management  of the Issuer,  including any plans or proposals to
change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing  vacancies on the
board; any material change in the present  capitalization  or dividend policy of
the Issuer;  any other  material  change in the  Issuer's  business or corporate
structure;  changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding
thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of control of the
Issuer by any person; causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted
from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in
an  inter-dealer   quotation   system  of  a  registered   national   securities
association;  causing  a class of  equity  securities  of the  Issuer  to become
eligible for  termination of  registration  pursuant to Section  12(g)(4) of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934; or any action similar to the above.

Item     Interest in Securities of the Issuer

                  (a)  Brounstein  beneficially  owns  897,000  shares of Common
Stock, including 72,000 shares underlying convertible  securities.  Such shares,
including the shares  underlying  convertible  securities  owned by  Brounstein,
represent 11.5% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock. In addition,
Brounstein's  wife Ellen Brounstein and son Alexander  Brounstein own 16,000 and
1,000 shares,  respectively,  of the Issuer's Common Stock.  Brounstein does not
have any voting or dispositive power and disclaims any beneficial ownership with
respect to such shares,  although he may be deemed to have beneficial  ownership
of such shares due to the nature of the  relationship  of such  shareholders  to
himself, in which case he would be deemed to own 11.7% of the outstanding shares
of the Issuer's Common Stock.

                  (b)  Brounstein  has sole  voting and  dispositive  power with
respect to the 897,000  shares of Common Stock and disclaims the right to direct
the vote and to dispose of the 16,000 shares owned by his wife Ellen  Brounstein
and the 1,000  shares of Common  Stock  owned by his son  Alexander  Brounstein.
Ellen  Brounstein has sole voting and  dispositive  power with respect to 16,000
shares and  Alexander  Brounstein  has sole  voting and  dispositive  power with
respect to the 1,000 shares described in Item 5(a).

                  (c) Brounstein  purchased an aggregate of 17,000 shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock in the Issuer's initial public offering (consisting of the
1,000  shares  purchased  by his son  Alexander  Brounstein  and  16,000  shares
purchased for his wife Ellen  Brounstein)  for an aggregate
purchase price of $102,000.  Brounstein  received an additional 75,000 shares of
common stock in August 1996 upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock owned by
him.  Brounstein  purchased  the  Series A  Preferred  Stock as part of Units he
purchased in  connection  with the Issuer's  May 1996  private  placement.  Upon
consummation  of the Issuer's  initial public offering  (August 29, 1996),  each
share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically  converted into one share of the
Issuer's  Common Stock.  Accordingly,  on August 29, 1996, Brounstein's  75,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 75,000 shares of
the Issuer's Common Stock.

of the Issuer's  Common Stock as referenced in 5(a).  Alexander is 18 years old,
