Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
As of the date hereof, Mr. Stober is deemed to
beneficially own 275,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
(which includes warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of Common
Stock). The Common Stock is held by the Partnership and
Mr. Stober. The shares of Common Stock were purchased in a
privately negotiated transaction at an approximate aggregate cost
of $400,000. The funds for the purchase of Common Stock and
warrants held in the Partnership, of which Mr. Stober is the sole
General Partner, came from capital contributions to the
Partnership by its general and limited partners. No leverage was
used to purchase the Common Stock.
Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

sales or purchases or otherwise, or may continue to hold the
