PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
MAS Acquisition I Corp. (the "Company"), was incorporated on
July 31, 1996 in the State of Delaware, to engage in any lawful
corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected
mergers and acquisitions. Pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation,
the Company is authorized to issue 80,000,000 shares of Common Stock
at $.001 par value and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock at $.001
par value. Each holder of the Common Stock shall be entitled to one
vote for each share of Common Stock held. The Preferred Stock may be
divided into Series or Classes by the management of the Company upon
the approval of a majority vote of the Directors of the Company. As
of August 15, 1996, there are 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock and
no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.
The Company has been in the developmental stage since inception
and has no operations to date. Other than issuing shares to its
original shareholder, the Company never commenced any operational
activities. As such, the Company can be defined as a "shell" company,
whose sole purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger
or acquisition with a private entity. The Board of Directors of the
Company has elected to commence implementation of the Company's
principal business purpose, described below under "ITEM 2 - PLAN OF
OPERATION".
The Company is filing this registration statement on a
voluntary basis because the primary attraction of the Company as a
merger partner or acquisition vehicle will be its status as a
public company. Any business combination or transaction may
potentially result in a significant issuance of shares and substantial
dilution to present stockholders of the Company.
The proposed business activities described herein classify the
Company as a "blank check" company. Many states have enacted
statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of
"blank check" companies in their respective jurisdictions.
Management does not intend to undertake any offering of the Company's
securities, either debt or equity, until such time as the Company has
successfully implemented its business plan described herein. Relevant
thereto, MAS Financial Corp., the sole shareholder of the Company,
which is owned and controlled by Aaron Tsai, President of the Company,
has expressed its intention that it has no plan to sell its respective
shares of the Company's common stock until such time as the Company has
successfully consummated a merger or acquisition and the Company is no
longer classified as a "blank check" company and it has agreed to sell
its shares only if the shares are subsequently registered or if an
exemption from registration is available.
Multi Access Systems, Inc. was incorporated on April 27, 1993 under
the laws of the State of Kentucky as a computer multimedia company. Multi
Access Systems, Inc. suspended its marketing and distribution operations
and became inactive due to lack of capital. Aaron Tsai, President of the
Company owns and controls Multi Access Systems, Inc. On September 11, 1996,
Multi Access Systems, Inc. gifted 23,600 shares of its common stock
to 236 new shareholders, who are European individuals, in reliance on
Regulation S. These 236 individuals became registered shareholder of
Multi Access Systems, Inc. Multi Access Systems, Inc. held these shares
in escrow and plans to release these shares from escrow by sending these
shareholders stock certificates at the expiration of the restricted period.
However, in the letter mailed to the giftees in September 11, 1996, the
information was materially deficient and these persons have not been
sufficiently informed of the restrictions placed on them as shareholders.
If any of these shareholders sold or transferred any shares of stock to
any U.S. person prior to the expiration of the restricted period, Multi
Access Systems, Inc. may be in violation the Securities Act. Multi Access
Systems, Inc. has sent a letter on March 18, 1997 to inform its
shareholders of the restrictions on the transfer of the shares, the shares
have been locked-up in escrow until the expiration of the restricted period
and Multi Access Systems, Inc. will not register any transfer of shares or
issue stock certificates until the expiration of the restricted period.
<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
NO OPEATING HISTORY, REVENUE AND ASSETS. The Company has had
no operating history nor any revenues or earnings from operations.
The Company has little or no tangible assets or financial resources.
The Company will, in all likelihood, continue to sustain operating
expenses without corresponding revenues, at least until the
consummation of a business combination. This may result in the Company
incurring a net operating loss which will increase continuously until
the Company can consummate a business combination with a profitable
business opportunity. There is no assurance that the Company can
identify such a business opportunity and consummate such a business
combination.
SPECULATIVE NATURE OF COMPANY'S PROPOSED OPERATIONS. The
success of the Company's proposed plan of operation will depend to
a great extent on the operations, financial condition and
management of the identified business opportunity. While
management intends to seek business combination(s) with entities
having established operating histories, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in locating candidates meeting
such criteria. In the event the Company completes a business
combination, of which there can be no assurance, the success of the
Company's operations may be dependent upon management of the
successor firm or venture partner firm and numerous other factors
beyond the Company's control.
SCARCITY OF AND COMPETITION FOR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES AND
COMBINATIONS. The Company is and will continue to be an
insignificant participant in the business of seeking mergers with,
joint ventures with and acquisitions of small private and public
entities. A large number of established and well-financed
entities, including venture capital firms, are active in mergers
and acquisitions of companies which may be desirable target
candidates for the Company. Nearly all such entities have
significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and
managerial capabilities than the Company and, consequently, the
Company will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying
possible business opportunities and successfully completing a
business combination. Moreover, the Company will also compete in
seeking merger or acquisition candidates with numerous other small
public companies.
NO AGREEMENT FOR BUSINESS COMBINATION OR OTHER TRANSACTION -
NO STANDARDS FOR BUSINESS COMBINATION. The Company has no arrangement,
agreement or understanding with respect to engaging in a merger
with, joint venture with or acquisition of, a private or public
entity. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful
in identifying and evaluating suitable business opportunities or in
concluding a business combination. Management has not identified
any particular industry or specific business within an industry for
evaluation by the Company. There is no assurance the Company will
be able to negotiate a business combination on terms favorable to
the Company. The Company has not established a specific length of
operating history or a specified level of earnings, assets, net
worth or other criteria which it will require a target business
opportunity to have achieved, and without which the Company would
not consider a business combination in any form with such business
opportunity. Accordingly, the Company may enter into a business
combination with a business opportunity having no significant
operating history, losses, limited or no potential for earnings,
limited assets, negative net worth or other negative
characteristics.
<PAGE>
CONTINUED MANAGEMENT CONTROL, LIMITED TIME AVAILABILITY.
While seeking a business combination, Aaron Tsai, President of the
Company anticipates devoting up to ten hours per month to the business
of the Company. Aaron Tsai will be the only person responsible in
conducting the day to day operations of the company including searches,
evaluations, and negotiations with potential merger or acquisition
candidates. Other officers and directors of the company anticipates
devoting up to two hours per quarter to the strategic planning of the
Company. None of the Company's officers has entered into a written
employment agreement with the Company and none is expected to do so
in the foreseeable future. The Company has not obtained key man
life insurance on any of its officers or directors. Notwithstanding
the combined limited experience and time commitment of management,
loss of the services of any of these individuals would adversely
affect development of the Company's business and its likelihood of
continuing operations. See "ITEM 5 - DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE
OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS."
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - GENERAL. Officers and directors of
the Company may in the future participate in business ventures
which could be deemed to compete directly with the Company. Officers
and directors of the Company have served as officers and directors of
a number of other blank check companies. Additional conflicts of
interest and non-arms length transactions may also arise in the future
in the event the Company's officers or directors are involved in the
management of any firm with which the Company transacts business.
Management has adopted a policy that the Company will not seek a
merger with, or acquisition of, any entity in which management
serve as officers, directors or partners, or in which they or their
family members own or hold any ownership interest.
<PAGE>
LACK OF MARKET RESEARCH OR MARKETING ORGANIZATION. The
Company has neither conducted, nor have others made available to
it, results of market research indicating that market demand exists
for the transactions contemplated by the Company. Moreover, the
Company does not have, and does not plan to establish, a marketing
organization. Even in the event demand is identified for a merger
or acquisition contemplated by the Company, there is no assurance
the Company will be successful in completing any such business
combination.
LACK OF DIVERSIFICATION. The Company's proposed operations,
even if successful, will in all likelihood result in the Company
engaging in a business combination with a business opportunity.
Consequently, the Company's activities may be limited to those
engaged in by business opportunities which the Company merges with
or acquires. The Company's inability to diversify its activities
into a number of areas may subject the Company to economic
fluctuations within a particular business or industry and therefore
increase the risks associated with the Company's operations.
REGULATION. Although the Company will be subject to
regulation under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, management
believes the Company will not be subject to regulation under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, insofar as the Company will not be
engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. In
the event the Company engages in business combinations which result
in the Company holding passive investment interests in a number of
entities, the Company could be subject to regulation under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. In such event, the Company would
be required to register as an investment company and could be
expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs.
The Company has obtained no formal determination from the
Securities and Exchange Commission as to the status of the Company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, consequently, any
violation of such Act would subject the Company to material adverse
consequences.
PROBABLE CHANGE IN CONTROL AND MANAGEMEN. A business
combination involving the issuance of the Company's Common Shares
will, in all likelihood, result in shareholders of a private
company obtaining a controlling interest in the Company. Any such
business combination may require management of the Company to sell
or transfer all or a portion of the Company's Common Shares held by
them, or resign as members of the Board of Directors of the
Company. The resulting change in control of the Company could
result in the removal of some or all present officers and directors
of the Company and a corresponding reduction in or elimination of
their participation in the future affairs of the Company.
<PAGE>
POTENTIAL REDUCTION OF PERCENTAGE SHARE OWNERSHIP FOLLOWING
BUSINESS COMBINATION. The Company's primary plan of operation is
based upon a business combination with a private concern which,
depanding on the terms of merger or acquisition, may result in the
Company issuing securities to shareholders of any such private company.
The issuance of previously authorized and unissued Common Shares of the
Company would result in reduction in percentage of shares owned by
present and prospective shareholders of the Company and may result in a
change in control or management of the Company.
DISADVANTAGES OF BLANK CHECK OFFERING. The Company may enter
into a business combination with an entity that desires to
establish a public trading market for its shares. A business
opportunity may attempt to avoid what it deems to be adverse
consequences of undertaking its own public offering by seeking a
business combination with the Company. Such consequences may
include, but are not limited to, time delays of the registration
process, significant expenses to be incurred in such an offering,
loss of voting control to public shareholders and the inability or
unwillingness to comply with various federal and state laws enacted
for the protection of investors.
TAXATION. Federal and state tax consequences will, in all
likelihood, be major considerations in any business combination the
Company may undertake. Currently, such transactions may be
structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies,
pursuant to various federal and state tax provisions. The Company
intends to structure any business combination so as to minimize the
federal and state tax consequences to both the Company and the
target entity; however, there can be no assurance that such
business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-
free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended
tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-
qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both
federal and state taxes which may have an adverse effect on both
parties to the transaction.
REQUIREMENT OF AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MAY DISQUALIFY
BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES. Section 13 and 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), require companies subject
thereto to provide certain information about significant acquisitions,
including certified financial statements for the company acquired,
covering one, two or three years, depending on the relative size
of the acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be
incurred by some target entities to prepare such statements may
preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable acquisition by
the Company. Acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable
to obtain the required audited financial statements may not be
appropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements
of the 1934 Act are applicable.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION
The Company intends to seek to acquire assets or shares of an
entity actively engaged in business which generates revenues, in
exchange for its securities. The Company has no particular
acquisitions in mind and has not entered into any negotiations
regarding such an acquisition. None of the Company's officers,
directors, promoters or affiliates have engaged in any preliminary
contact or discussions with any representative of any other company
regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger between the
Company and such other company as of the date of this registration
statement.
EMPLOYEES
The Company has no full time or part time employees. The
Company's officers and directors have agreed to allocate a portion
of their time to the activities of the Company, without compensation.
These officers anticipate that the business plan of the Company can
be implemented through the efforts of Aaron Tsai, President of the
Company, devoting up to 10 hours per month to the business affairs of
the Company, while other officers devoting up to 2 hours per quarter
to the strategic planning and, consequently, conflicts of interest
may arise with respect to the limited time commitment by such
officers. See "ITEM 5 - DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS
AND CONTROL PERSONS."
All of the Company's officers and directors was formerly
involved with other "blank check" companies. The Company's officers
and directors may, in the future, become involved with other
companies who have a business purpose similar to that of the Company.
As a result, additional potential conflicts of interest may arise in
the future. If such a conflict does arise and an officer or director
of the Company is presented with business opportunities under
circumstances where there may be a doubt as to whether the
opportunity should belong to the Company or another "blank check"
company they are affiliated with, they will disclose the
opportunity to all such companies. If a situation arises in which
more than one company desires to merge with or acquire that target
company and the principals of the proposed target company has no
preference as to which company will merger or acquire such target
company, the company which first filed a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission will be entitled to
proceed with the proposed transaction. See "ITEM 5 - DIRECTORS,
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS."
INDEMNIFICATION
As permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company
has included in its Certificate of Incorporation a provision to
eliminate the personal liability of its officers and directors for
monetary damages for breach or alleged breach of their fiduciary
duties as directors, subject to certain exceptions. Therefore,
assets of the Company could be used or attached to satisfy any
liabilities subject to such indemnification. See "ITEM 5 -
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS."
<PAGE>
GENERAL BUSINESS PLAN
The Company's purpose is to seek, investigate and, if such
investigation warrants, acquire an interest in business
opportunities presented to it by persons or firms who or which
desire to seek the perceived advantages of an Exchange Act
registered corporation. The Company will not restrict its search
to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and
the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any
kind or nature. This discussion of the proposed business is
purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of the
Company's virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter
into potential business opportunities. Management anticipates that
it may be able to participate in only one potential business
venture because the Company has nominal assets and limited
financial resources. See PART F/S, "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
EXHIBITS." This lack of diversification should be considered a
substantial risk to shareholders of the Company because it will not
permit the Company to offset potential losses from one venture
against gains from another.
The Company may seek a business opportunity with entities
which have recently commenced operations, or which wish to utilize
the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in
order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new
product or service, or for other corporate purposes. The Company
may acquire assets and establish wholly-owned subsidiaries in
various businesses or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.
The Company plans to advertise and promote the Company in
newspaper, magazines and on the Internet. The Company has not yet
prepared any notices or advertisement.
The Company anticipates that the selection of a business
opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely
risky. Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological
advances being made in some industries and shortages of available
capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking
the perceived benefits of a publicly registered corporation. Such
perceived benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms
on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing
liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key
employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of
applicable statutes), for all shareholders and other factors.
Potentially, available business opportunities may occur in many
different industries and at various stages of development, all of
which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis
of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.
<PAGE>
The Company has, and will continue to have, no capital with
which to provide the owners of business opportunities with any
significant cash or other assets. However, management believes the
Company will be able to offer owners of acquisition candidates the
opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in a
publicly registered company without incurring the cost and time
required to conduct an initial public offering. The owners of the
business opportunities will, however, incur significant legal and
accounting costs in connection with acquisition of a business
opportunity, including the costs of preparing Form 8-K's, 10-K's or
10-KSB's, agreements and related reports and documents. The
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "34 Act"), specifically
requires that any merger or acquisition candidate comply with all
applicable reporting requirements, which include providing audited
financial statements to be included within the numerous filings
relevant to complying with the 34 Act. Nevertheless, the officers
and directors of the Company have not conducted market research and
are not aware of statistical data which would support the perceived
benefits of a merger or acquisition transaction for the owners of
a business opportunity.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken
by, or under the supervision of, the officers and directors of the
Company, none of whom is a professional business analyst. Aaron Tsai,
President of the Company will be the key person in the search,
review and negotiation with potential acquisition or merger candidates.
Management intends to concentrate on identifying preliminary
prospective business opportunities which may be brought to its
attention through present associations of the Company's officers
and directors, or by the Company's shareholder. In analyzing
prospective business opportunities, management will consider such
matters as the available technical, financial and managerial
resources; working capital and other financial requirements;
history of operations, if any; prospects for the future; nature of
present and expected competition; the quality and experience of
management services which may be available and the depth of that
management; the potential for further research, development, or
exploration; specific risk factors not now foreseeable but which
then may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of the
Company; the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for
profit; the perceived public recognition of acceptance of products,
services, or trades; name identification; and other relevant
factors. Officers and directors of the Company do not expect to
meet personally with management and key personnel of the business
opportunity as part of their investigation due to lack of capital.
To the extent possible, the Company intends to utilize written
reports and investigation to evaluate the above factors. The Company
will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited
financial statements cannot be obtained within a reasonable period
of time after closing of the proposed transaction.
<PAGE>
The Officers of the Company have little experience in managing
companies similar to the Company and shall rely upon their own efforts
and, to a much lesser extent, the efforts of the Company's shareholder,
in accomplishing the business purposes of the Company. It is not
anticipated that any outside consultants or advisors will be utilized by
the Company to effectuate its business purposes described herein. However,
if the Company does retain such an outside consultant or advisor, any cash
fee earned by such party will need to be paid by the prospective merger/
acquisition candidate, as the Company has no cash assets with which
to pay such obligation. There have been no contracts or agreements
with any outside consultants and none are anticipated in the
future.
The Company will not restrict its search for any specific kind
of firms, but may acquire a venture which is in its preliminary or
development stage, which is already in operation, or in essentially
any stage of its corporate life. It is impossible to predict at
this time the status of any business in which the Company may
become engaged, in that such business may need to seek additional
capital, may desire to have its shares publicly traded, or may seek
other perceived advantages which the Company may offer. However,
the Company does not intend to obtain funds in one or more private
placements to finance the operation of any acquired business
opportunity until such time as the Company has successfully
consummated such a merger or acquisition.
It is anticipated that the Company will incur nominal expenses
in the implementation of its business plan described herein.
Because the Company has no capital with which to pay these
anticipated expenses, present management of the Company will pay
these charges with their personal funds, as interest free loans to
the Company. However, the only opportunity which management has to
have these loans repaid will be from a prospective merger or
acquisition candidate. Management has agreed among themselves that
the repayment of any loans made on behalf of the Company will not
impede, or be made conditional in any manner, to consummation of a
proposed transaction.
ACQUISITION OF OPPORTUNITIES
In implementing a structure for a particular business
acquisition, the Company may become a party to a merger,
consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing
agreement with another corporation or entity. It may also acquire
stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a
transaction, it is probable that the present management and
shareholders of the Company will no longer be in control of the
Company. In addition, the Company's directors may, as part of the
terms of the acquisition transaction, resign and be replaced by new
directors without a vote of the Company's shareholders or may sell
their stock in the Company. Any terms of sale of the shares
presently held by officers and/or directors of the Company will be
also afforded to all other shareholders of the Company on similar
terms and conditions. Any and all such sales will only be made in
compliance with the securities laws of the United States and any
applicable state.
<PAGE>
It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such
reorganization would be issued in reliance upon exemption from
registration under applicable federal and state securities laws.
In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of its
transaction, the Company may agree to register all or a part of
such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or
at specified times thereafter. If such registration occurs, of
which there can be no assurance, it will be undertaken by the
surviving entity after the Company has successfully consummated a
merger or acquisition and the Company is no longer considered a
"shell" company. Until such time as this occurs, the Company will
not attempt to register any additional securities. The issuance of
substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any
trading market which may develop in the Company's securities may
have a depressive effect on the value of the Company's securities
in the future, if such a market develops, of which there is no
assurance.
While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company
may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the
parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to avoid
the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the
acquisition in a so-called "tax-free" reorganization under Sections
368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). In
order to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code, it may be
necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or
more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event,
the shareholders of the Company, would retain less than 20% of the
issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which would
result in significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders.
As part of the Company's investigation, officers and directors
of the Company may personally meet with management and key personnel,
may visit and inspect material facilities, obtain analysis of
verification of certain information provided, check references of
management and key personnel, and take other reasonable investigative
measures, to the extent of the Company's limited financial resources
and management expertise. The manner in which the Company participates
in an opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the
respective needs and desires of the Company and other parties, the
management of the opportunity and the relative negotiation strength of
the Company and such other management.
With respect to any merger or acquisition, negotiations with
target company management is expected to focus on the percentage of
the Company which the target company shareholders would acquire in
exchange for all of their shareholdings in the target company.
Depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and
liabilities, the Company's shareholders will in all likelihood hold
a substantially lesser percentage ownership interest in the Company
following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may
be subject to significant reduction in the event the Company
acquires a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or
acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a
significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the
Company's then shareholders.
<PAGE>
The Company will participate in a business opportunity only
after the negotiation and execution of appropriate written
agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be
predicted, generally such agreements will require some specific
representations and warranties by all of the parties thereto, will
specify certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing
and the conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties
prior to and after such closing, will outline the manner of bearing
costs, including costs associated with the Company's attorneys and
accountants, will set forth remedies on default and will include
miscellaneous other terms.
As stated hereinabove, the Company will not acquire or merge
with any entity which cannot provide independent audited financial
statements within a reasonable period of time after closing of the
proposed transaction. The Company is subject to all of the
reporting requirements included in the 1934 Act. Included in these
requirements is the affirmative duty of the Company to file
independent audited financial statements as part of its Form 8-K to
be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon
consummation of a merger or acquisition, as well as the Company's
audited financial statements included in its annual report on Form
10-K (or 10-KSB, as applicable). If such audited financial
statements are not available at closing, or within time parameters
necessary to insure the Company's compliance with the requirements
of the 1934 Act, or if the audited financial statements provided do
not conform to the representations made by the candidate to be
acquired in the closing documents, the closing documents will
provide that the proposed transaction will be voidable, at the
discretion of the present management of the Company. If such
transaction is voided, the agreement will also contain a provision
providing for the acquisition entity to reimburse the Company for
all costs associated with the proposed transaction.
The Company does not intend to make any loans to any prospective
acquisition or merger candidates or to unaffiliated third parties.
The Company may make loans only to prospective acquisition or merger
candidates only when such fund is available, the Company has entered
into an acquisition or merger agreement and making a loan to the
acquisition or merger candidate is beneficial to the Company. The
criteria that will be used in determining whether to make loans is
the availability and the need of cash by the acquisition or merger
candidate in order to complete the acquisition or merger. The loan
may be either secured or non-secured depending on the result of
negotiation and there is no limitations as to the amounts that may
be loaned.
<PAGE>
The Company does not intends to provide the Company's security
holders with any complete disclosure documents, including audited
financial statements, concerning an acquisition or merger candidate and
its business prior to the consummation of any acquisition or merger
transaction.
COMPETITION
The Company will remain an insignificant participant among the
firms which engage in the acquisition of business opportunities.
There are many established venture capital and financial concerns
which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources
and technical expertise than the Company. In view of the Company's
combined extremely limited financial resources and limited
management availability, the Company will continue to be at a
significant competitive disadvantage compared to the Company's
competitors.
<PAGE>
IITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
The Company's headquarters includes approximately 2,000 square
feet and are located at 1922 North Bedford Avenue, Evansville, IN
47711. These offices are provided by Aaron Tsai, President of the
Company, and are shared with Aimex Camera Inc., Aimex Camera Corp.,
Aimex International Corporation and its subsidiaries, MAS Financial
Corp. and other non-active companies owned and controlled by Aaron
Tsai. The Company pays no monthly rent. Aimex Camera Inc.'s lease
expires on November 30, 1997. The Company has an understanding with
Aimex Camera Inc. that the Company can use its current and future
office space without any cost until the Company acquire or merger
with another company. Management believes that new office space can
be located in the event that Aimex Camera Inc. no longer occupys its
current office space and did not obtain any new office space.

The Officers and Directors identified in above table are the Company's

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Members of the Company's management are associated with other
firms involved in a range of business activities. Consequently,there
are potential inherent conflicts of interest in their acting
as officers and directors of the Company. Insofar as the officers
and directors are engaged in other business activities, management
anticipates it will devote only a minor amount of time to the
Company's affairs.
The officers and directors of the Company have been and may in
the future become shareholders, officers or directors of other
companies which may be formed for the purpose of engaging in
business activities similar to those conducted by the Company.
Accordingly, additional direct conflicts of interest may arise in
the future with respect to such individuals acting on behalf of the
Company or other entities. Moreover, additional conflicts of
interest may arise with respect to opportunities which come to the
attention of such individuals in the performance of their duties or
otherwise. The Company does not currently have a right of first
refusal pertaining to opportunities that come to management's
attention insofar as such opportunities may relate to the Company's
proposed business operations.
<PAGE>
The officers and directors are, so long as they are officers
or directors of the Company, subject to the restriction that all
opportunities contemplated by the Company's plan of operation which
come to their attention, either in the performance of their duties
or in any other manner, will be considered opportunities of, and be
made available to the Company and the companies that they are
affiliated with on an equal basis. A breach of this requirement
will be a breach of the fiduciary duties of the officer or
director. If the Company or the companies in which the officers
and directors are affiliated with both desire to take advantage of
an opportunity, then said officers and directors would abstain from
negotiating and voting upon the opportunity. However, all
directors may still individually take advantage of opportunities if
the Company should decline to do so. Except as set forth above,
the Company has not adopted any other conflict of interest policy
with respect to such transactions.
Aaron Tsai, President of the Company will be compensated in form
of shares of common stock of the Company upon completion of an
acquisition or merger. It is possible that such compensation may become
a factor in negotiations and present conflict of interest. Aaron Tsai
will use his best efforts to resolve equitably any conflicts that might
result during negotiations for an acquisition or merger.
There are no agreements or understandings for any officers and/or
directors to resign at the request of another person and that none of
the officers or directors are acting on behalf of or will act at the
direction of any other person except at the time of the acquisition or
merger and at the request of the controlling persons of the acquisition
or merger candidate. The Company expects that the controlling persons
of the acquisition or merger candidate will ask all of the current
Officers and Directors to resign at the time of the acquisition
or merger because they will become controlling persons of the Company.
<PAGE>
INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940
Although the Company will be subject to regulation under the
Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
management believes the Company will not be subject to regulation
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 insofar as the Company
will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in
securities. In the event the Company engages in business
combinations which result in the Company holding passive investment
interests in a number of entities, the Company could be subject to
regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In such
event, the Company would be required to register as an investment
company and could be expected to incur significant registration and
compliance costs. The Company has obtained no formal determination
from the Securities and Exchange Commission as to the status of the
Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, consequently,
any violation of such Act would subject the Company to material
adverse consequences. The Company's Board of Directors unanimously
approved a resolution stating that it is the Company's desire to be
exempt from the Investment Company Act of 1940 via Regulation 3a-2
thereto.
INVESTMENT ADVISOR ACT OF 1940
The Company is not an "investment adviser" under the Federal
Investment Adviser Act of 1940, which classification would involve a
number of negative considerations. Accordingly, the Company will not
furnish or distribute advice, counsel, publications, writings, analysis
or reports to anyone relating to the purchase or sale of any securities
within the language, meaning and intent of Section 2(a)(11) of the
Investment Adviser Act of 1940, 15 U.S.C.
<PAGE>
ITEM 6. EXECUTIVE CPMPENSATION.
None of the Company's officers and/or directors receive any
compensation for their respective services rendered unto the
Company, nor have they received such compensation in the past.
They all have agreed to act without compensation until authorized
by the Board of Directors, which is not expected to occur until the
Company has generated revenues from operations after consummation
of a merger or acquisition. As of the date of this registration
statement, the Company has no funds available to pay directors.
Further, none of the directors are accruing any compensation
pursuant to any agreement with the Company.
It is possible that, after the Company successfully
consummates a merger or acquisition with an unaffiliated entity,
that entity may desire to employ or retain one or a number of
members of the Company's management for the purposes of providing
services to the surviving entity, or otherwise provide other
compensation to such persons. However, the Company has adopted a
policy whereby the offer of any post-transaction remuneration to
members of management will not be a consideration in the Company's
decision to undertake any proposed transaction. Each member of
management has agreed to disclose to the Company's Board of
Directors any discussions concerning possible compensation to be
paid to them by any entity which proposes to undertake a
transaction with the Company and further, to abstain from voting on
such transaction. Therefore, as a practical matter, if each member
of the Company's Board of Directors is offered compensation in any
form from any prospective merger or acquisition candidate, the
proposed transaction will not be approved by the Company's Board of
Directors as a result of the inability of the Board to
affirmatively approve such a transaction.
It is possible that persons associated with management may
refer a prospective merger or acquisition candidate to the Company.
In the event the Company consummates a transaction with any entity
referred by associates of management, it is possible that such an
associate will be compensated for their referral in the form of a
finder's fee. It is anticipated that this fee will be either in
the form of restricted common stock issued by the Company as part
of the terms of the proposed transaction, or will be in the form of
cash consideration. However, if such compensation is in the form
of cash, such payment will be tendered by the acquisition or merger
candidate, because the Company has insufficient cash available.
The amount of such finder's fee cannot be determined as of the date
of this registration statement, but is expected to be comparable to
consideration normally paid in like transactions. No member of
management of the Company will receive any finders fee, either
directly or indirectly, as a result of their respective efforts to
implement the Company's business plan outlined herein.
The Company plans to compensate Aaron Tsai, President of the
Company between 800,000 to 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Company for his services in connection with completion of an
acquisition or merger. The Company does not intend to compensate any
other Officers and Directors of the Company or consultants in
connection with completion of an acquisition or merger in any form
other than in form of Common Stock to the President of the Company
and in form of finders fee to the consultant(s).
No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or
insurance programs or other similar programs have been adopted by
the Company for the benefit of its employees.
<PAGE>
ITEM 7. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
There have been no related party transactions, or any other
transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to
Item 404 of Regulation S-B.
ITEM 8. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
COMMON STOCK
The Certificate of Incorporation currently authorizes the
Company to issue Eighty Million (80,000,000) shares of Common Stock
at $.001 par value. Each holder of the Common Stock shall be entitled
to one vote for each share of Common Stock held. As of August 15, 1996
there are 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding.
PREFERRED STOCK
Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is
authorized to issue Twenty Million (20,000,000) shares of Preferred
Stock at $.001 par value. The Preferred Stock may be divided into
Series or Classes, with special voting rights and preferences, to be
established by the management of the Company upon the approval of a
majority vote of the Directors of the Company. As of August 15, 1996,
there are no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.
If the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of shares of
Preferred Stock with conversion rights, the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding could potentially be increased by up to the authorized
amount. Issuance of Preferred Stock could, under certain circumstances,
have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the
Company and may adversely affect the rights of holders of other classes
of Preferred Stock or holders of Common Stock. Also, Preferred Stock
could have preferences over the Common Stock and other series of
Preferred Stock with respect to dividends and liquidation rights.
Upon liquidation of the Company, each shareholder is entitled
to receive a proportionate share of the Company's assets available
for distribution to shareholders after the payment of liabilities
and after distribution in full of preferential amounts, if any.
All shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding are
fully-paid and nonassessable. Holders of the Common Stock are
entitled to share pro rata in dividends and distributions with
respect to the Common Stock, as may be declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available therefor.
The proposed business activities described herein classify the
Company as a "blank check" company. Many states have enacted
statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of
"blank check" companies in their respective jurisdictions.
Management does not intend to undertake any offering of the Company's
securities, either debt or equity, until such time as the Company has
successfully implemented its business plan described herein. Relevant
thereto, MAS Financial Corp., the sole shareholder of the Company,
which is owned and controlled by Aaron Tsai, President of the Company
has agreed that it shall not sell its respective shares of the
Company's common stock until such time as the Company has successfully
consummated a merger or acquisition and the Company is no longer
classified as a "blank check" company.
<PAGE>
PART II
ITEM 1. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The Company's Common Stock has never been traded. The Company
plans to apply to have its Common Stock traded on the over-the-counter
market and listed on the OTC Bulletin Board. There is no assurance that
a trading market will ever develop or, if such a market does develop,
that it will continue.
As of August 15, 1996 the number of holders of the Company's Common
Stock was 1.
DIVIDEND POLICY
The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock
and presently intends to continue a policy of retaining earnings, if any,
for reinvestment in its business.
PENNY STOCK
Until the Company's shares qualify for inclusion in the Nasdaq
system, the trading of the Company's securities, if any, will be in
the over-the-counter markets which are commonly referred to as the
"pink sheets" or on the Nasdaq Bulletin Board. As a result, an
investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain
accurate quotations as to the price of the securities offered.
Effective August 11, 1993, the Securities and Exchange
Commission adopted Rule 15g-9, which established the definition of
a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to the Company, as any
equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per
share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share,
subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a
penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or
dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks;
and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written
agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and
quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve
a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or
dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment
experience and objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable
determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable
for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the
risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must
also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a
disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the
penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i) sets forth the
basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a
signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the
transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of
investing in penny stock in both public offering and in secondary
trading, and about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer
and the registered representative, current quotations for the
securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in
cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly
statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for
the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited
market in penny stocks.
<PAGE>
The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the
"NASD"), which administers NASDAQ, has recently made changes in the
criteria for continued NASDAQ eligibility. In order to continue to
be included on NASDAQ, a company must maintain $2,000,000 in total
assets, a $200,000 market value of its publicly-traded securities
and $1,000,000 in total capital and surplus. In addition,
continued inclusion requires two market-makers and a minimum bid
price of $1.00 per share, provided, however, that if a company
falls below such minimum bid price it will remain eligible for
continued inclusion on NASDAQ if the market value of its publicly-
traded securities is at least $1,000,000 and the Company has
$2,000,000 in capital and surplus.
Management intends to strongly consider undertaking a
transaction with any merger or acquisition candidate which will
allow the Company's securities to be traded without the aforesaid
limitations. However, there can be no assurances that, upon a
successful merger or acquisition, the Company will qualify its
securities for listing on NASDAQ or some other national exchange,
or be able to maintain the maintenance criteria necessary to insure
continued listing. The failure of the Company to qualify its
securities or to meet the relevant maintenance criteria after such
qualification in the future may result in the discontinuance of the
inclusion of the Company's securities on a national exchange. In
such events, trading, if any, in the Company's securities may then
continue in the over-the-counter market. As a result, a
shareholder may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain
accurate quotations as to the market value of, the Company's
securities.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings.
ITEM 3. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
The Company has not changed accountants since its formation
and there are no disagreements with the findings of said
accountants.
ITEM 4. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
On August 15, 1996, the Company issued 8,500,000 shares of
Common Stock to MAS Financial Corp. for payment of travel expenses
and services performed for the Company valued at $.001 per common
share ($8,500). The services performed include the incorporation of
the Company, arranging for an audit and recommending the share
structure of the Company. The travel expenses include visiting the
New York City Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission to
research on other companies' filing on Form 10-SB and to obtain a
copy of Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company relied on exemption provided by Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the issuance of 8,500,000
shares of Common Stock to MAS Financial Corp. All of these shares
are "restricted" shares as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). These shares may not be offered
for public sale except under Rule 144, or otherwise, pursuant to the
Act.
As of the date of this report, none of the issued and
outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are eligible for
sale under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, subject to certain limitations included in said Rule.
In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose shares
are aggregated) who has satisfied a two year holding period, under
certain circumstances, may sell within any three-month period a
number of shares which does not exceed the greater of one percent
of the then outstanding Common Stock or the average weekly trading
volume during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale. Rule 144
also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of shares
without any quantity limitation by a person who has satisfied a
three-year holding period and who is not, and has not been for the
preceding three months, an affiliate of the Company.
The Company has obligations to ensure that any state laws are not
violated through the sale and reslae of its securities. MAS Financial
Corp. has understood and agreed that the securities of the Company
issued to it are unregistered and restricted securities and may not
be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless registered or
qualified under applicable state securities laws or an exemption
therefrom is available.
<PAGE>
ITEM 5. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
As permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company has
included in its Certificate of Incorporation a provision to eliminate
the personal liability of its officers and directors for monetary damages
for breach or alleged breach of their fiduciary duties as officers and/or
directors, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the Bylaws of the
Company provide that the Company is required to indemnify its officers and
directors under certain circumstance including those circumstances in
which indemnification would otherwise be discretionary, and the Company is
required to advance expenses to its officers and directors incurred in
connection with proceeding against them for which they may be indemnified.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and
directors containing provisions that are in some respects broader than the
specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General
Corporation Law.
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS OR PERSONS CONTROLLING THE COMPANY FOR LIABILITIES
ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, IS HELD TO BE AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY
BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND IS THEREFORE UNENFORCEABLE.

Note 1. ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated on July 31, 1996, in the State of Delaware. The
Company is in the development stage and its intent is to locate suitable
business ventures to acquire. The Company has had no significant business
activity to date and has chosen December 31, as a year end.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Net loss per share
The net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Common
stock equivalents are excluded from the computation as their effect would be
anti-dilutive. Shares issued at inception are considered to be outstanding for
the entire period presented.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and other highly liquid debt
instruments with an original maturity of less than three months.
Note 2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
At inception the Company issued 8,500,000 shares of its $.001 par value common
stock for services valued at their fair market value of $8,500.
Note 3. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income
and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in
different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current,
depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to
reverse. The deferred tax asset related to the operating loss carryforward has
been fully reserved.
The Company currently has net operating loss carryforwards aggregating
approximately $8,500 which expire in 2011.

7.01 Certificates. Certificates in such form as may be determined by
the Board of Directors shall be delivered, representing all shares to
which Shareholders are entitled. Certificates shall be consecutively
numbered and shall be entered in the books of the Corporation as they
are issued. Each certificate shall state on the face thereof that the
Corporation is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, the
holder's name, the number and class of shares, the par value of such
shares or a statement that such shares are without par value, and
such other matters as may be required by law.
They shall be signed by the President or a vice-president and either

of the Corporation or a facsimile thereof. If any certificate is
countersigned by a transfer agent, or
<PAGE>
an assistant transfer agent, or registered by a registrar (either of
which is other than the Corporation or an employee of the Corporation),
the signature of any such Officer may be a facsimile thereof. If any
certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent, or an assistant
transfer agent, or registered by a registrar (either of which is other
than the Corporation or an employee of the Corporation), the signature
of any such Officer may be a facsimile thereof.
7.02 Issuance of Certificates. Shares both treasury and authorized but
unissued may be issued for such consideration (not less than par value)
and to such persons as the Board of Directors determines from time to time.
Shares may not be issued until the full amount of the consideration, fixed
as provided by law, has been paid. In addition, Shares shall not be
issued or transferred until such additional conditions and documentation
as the Corporation (or its transfer agent, as the case may be) shall
reasonably require, including without limitation, the surrender of such
stock certificate or certificates of proper evidence of succession,
assignment or other authority to obtain transfer thereof, as the
circumstances may require, and such legal opinions with reference to the
requested transfer as shall be required by the Corporation (or its
transfer agent) pursuant to the provisions of these Bylaws and applicable
law, shall have been satisfied.
7.03 Legends on Certificates.
(a) Shares in Classes or Series. If the Corporation is authorized
to issue shares of more than one class, the certificates shall set
forth, either on the face or back of the certificate, a full or summary
statement of all of the designations, preferences, limitations relative
rights of the shares of such class and, if the Corporation is authorized
to issue any preferred or special class in series, the variations in the
relative rights and preferences of the shares of each such series so far
as the same have been fixed and determined, and the authority of the
Board of Directors to fix and determine the relative rights and
preferences of subsequent series. In lieu of providing such a statement
in full on the certificate, a statement on the face or back of the
certificate may provide that the Corporation will furnish such
information to any shareholder without charge upon written request to
the Corporation at its principal place of business or registered office
and that copies of the information are on file in the office of the
Secretary of State.
(b) Restriction on Transfer. Any restrictions imposed by the
Corporation on the sale or other disposition of its shares and on
the transfer thereof may be copied at length or in summary form on
the face, or so copied on the back and referred to on the face, of
each certificate representing shares to which the restriction applies.
The certificate may, however, state on the face or back that such a
restriction exists pursuant to a specified document and that the
Corporation will furnish a copy of the document to the holder of the
certificate without charge upon written request to the Corporation at
its principal place of business, or refer to such restriction in any
other manner permitted by law.
(c) Preemptive Rights. Any preemptive rights of a Shareholder to
acquire unissued or treasury shares of the Corporation which are or
may at any time be limited or denied by the Articles of Incorporation
may be set forth at length on the face or back of the certificate
representing shares subject thereto. In lieu of providing such a
statement in full on the certificate, a statement on the face or back
of the certificate may provide that the Corporation will furnish such
information to any Shareholder without charge upon written request to
the Corporation at its principal place of business and that a copy of
such information is on file in the office of the Secretary of State,
or refer to such denial of preemptive rights in any other manner
permitted by law.
(d) Unregistered Securities. Any security of the Corporation,
including, among others, any certificate evidencing shares of the
Common Stock or warrants
<PAGE>
to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation, which is issued to any
person without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the securities laws of any state, shall not be
transferable until the Corporation has been furnished with a legal
opinion of counsel with reference thereto, satisfactory in form and
content to the Corporation and its counsel, if required by the
Corporation, to the effect that such sale, transfer or pledge does
not involve a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or the securities laws of any state having jurisdiction. The
certificate representing the security shall bear substantially the
following legend:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER
THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR
TRANSFERRED UNLESS SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER WILL NOT BE IN
VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY
APPLICABLE BLUE SKY LAWS. ANY OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER OF THESE
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE MADE WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL OF
THE CORPORATION".
7.04 Payment of Shares.
(a) Kind. The consideration for the issuance of shares shall consist
of money paid, labor done (including services actually performed for
the Corporation) or property (tangible or intangible) actually received.

constitute payment for shares.
(b) Valuation. In the absence of fraud in the transaction, the
judgment of the Board of Directors as to the value of consideration

(c) Effect. When consideration, fixed as provided by law, has
been paid, the shares shall be deemed to have been issued and shall
be considered fully paid and nonassessable.

shares shall be allocated by the Board of Directors, in accordance
with law, between Stated Capital and Capital Surplus accounts.
7.05 Subscriptions. Unless otherwise provided in the subscription
agreement, subscriptions for shares shall be paid in full at such
time or in such installments and at such times as determined by the
Board of Directors. Any call made by the Board of Directors for

same series. In case of default in the payment on any installment
or call when payment is due, the Corporation may proceed to collect
the amount due in the same manner as any debt due to the Corporation.
7.06 Lien. For any indebtedness of a Shareholder to the Corporation,
the Corporation shall have a first and prior lien on all shares of
its stock owned by him and on all dividends or other distributions

purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim;
and
(c) Bond. Gives a bond in such form, and with such surety or sureties,
with fixed or open penalty, if the Corporation so requires, to indemnify

or theft of the certificate; and
(d) Other Requirements. Satisfies any other reasonable requirements
imposed by the Corporation.
When a certificate has been lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully
taken, and the holder of record fails to notify the Corporation within

registers a transfer of the shares represented by the certificate
before receiving such notification, the holder of record shall be
precluded from making any claim against the Corporation for the
transfer or for a new certificate.

transfer of a certificate for shares presented to it for transfer if:

owner or by his duly authorized attorney; and

Corporation, the signature of such person has been guaranteed by a
national banking association or member of the New York Stock Exchange,
and reasonable assurance is given that such endorsements are effective;
and
(c) Adverse Claims. The Corporation has no notice of an adverse claim
or has discharged any duty to inquire into such a claim; and
(d) Collection of Taxes. Any applicable law relating to the collection
of taxes has been complied with.

transfer of a certificate for shares, the Corporation may treat the
registered owner or holder of a written proxy from such registered owner
as the person exclusively entitled to vote, to receive notices and
otherwise exercise all the rights and powers of a Shareholder.

any preemptive rights of any kind to acquire additional, unissued or
treasury shares of the Corporation, or securities of the Corporation
convertible into, or
<PAGE>

series of the Corporation's capital stock, unless, and to the extent
that, such rights may be expressly granted by appropriate action.

XIII.
DAMAGE TO OR DESTRUCTION OF DEMISED PREMISES
If the building located on the demised premises is damaged by fire, the
elements, or any other cause whatsoever, Landlord shall decide within thirty
(30) days of such damage whether to repair and rebuild, and within such time
shall notify Tenant in writing of his election. If Landlord elects not to
repair and rebuild, this lease shall be deemed terminated. If Landlord elects
to repair or rebuild, then he shall proceed with due diligence to repair and
rebuild the demised premises. During the period of repair and construction and
<PAGE>
so long as Tenant is deprived of the reasonable use of the premises, rent shall
abate.
Landlord and Tenant each hereby release the other from any and all
liability or responsibility to the other or anyone claiming through or under
them by way of subrogation or otherwise for any loss or damage to property
caused by fire or other hazards insured against by extended insurance coverage;
provided, however, that this release shall be applicable and in force and effect
only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor's
policy shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that any such release
shall not adversely affect or impair said policies or prejudice the right of the
releasor to recover thereunder. Landlord and Tenant agree that they will
request their insurance carrier or carriers to include in their policy such a
clause or endorsement.
XIV.
EMINENT DOMAIN
In case the whole or any part of the demised premises shall be taken by
any public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyed by Landlord
under the threat of such taking, and if the portion of the demised premises so
taken or conveyed, is such as to destroy the usefulness of the demised premises
for the purposes for which the same are demised hereunder, then Tenant shall
have the right, exercisable by the giving of written notice to Landlord within
ten (10) days after such taking or conveyance, either to terminate this lease or
to continue in the remainder of the demised premises under and pursuant to the
terms and provisions hereof, except that the rent shall be reduced in
proportion of the area so taken or conveyed. All damages awarded or
compensation paid for any such taking or conveyance shall belong to and be the
property of Landlord.
XV.
QUIET ENJOYMENT
If and so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and other payments payable by
it in accordance with the terms and provisions of this lease and shall keep,
perform and observe all of the covenants and provisions hereof to be kept and
performed by Tenant, Tenant shall quietly enjoy the demised premises in
accordance with the terms and provisions of this lease.
XVI.
REMEDIES
A. Each of the following acts or omissions of Tenant or occurrences
shall constitute an event of default:
<PAGE>
1. Failure or refusal by Tenant to pay rent or other payments
hereunder within ten (10) days after the same is due and payable;
2. Failure to perform any of the other covenants, agreements,
stipulations or conditions herein set forth to be kept and
performed by Tenant and such failure continues for a period of
fifteen (15) days after written notice of such violation or
default without Tenant in good faith having commenced to
rectify the same with reasonable diligence;
3. Abandonment or vacation of the demised premises by Tenant or any
significant portion thereof;
4. The filing or execution or occurrence of (a) a petition in
bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding by or against Tenant,
(b) the filing by or against Tenant of any petition or answer
seeking relief under any provision of the bankruptcy act, or
(c) an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a petition or
other proceeding by or against Tenant for the appointment of a
trustee or receiver of Tenant or of any of Tenant's property.
B. Upon the occurrence of any event of default as enumerated above,
Landlord may, at Landlord's option, in addition to any other remedy
or right given hereunder or by law or equity, do any one or more of
the following:
1. Terminate this lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately
surrender possession of the demised premises to Landlord;
2. Enter upon and take possession of the demised premises and expel
or remove Tenant and any other occupant therefrom, with or without
having terminated this lease; and
3. Alter locks and other security devises in or about the demised
premises.
C. The exercise by Landlord of any one or more remedies hereunder granted
or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of
surrender of the demised premises by Tenant, whether by agreement or by
operation of law, it being understood that such surrender can be
affected only by the written agreement of Landlord and Tenant. No
such alteration of security devices and no removal or other exercise
of dominion by Landlord over the property of Tenant or others at the
demised premises shall constitute a conversion. All claims for damages
by reason of such re-entry and/or repossession and/or alteration of
<PAGE>
locks or other security devices are hereby waived by Tenant. Tenant
agrees that any re-entry by Landlord may be pursuant to judgment
obtained in any legal proceedings or without the necessity for any
legal proceedings, as Landlord may elect, and Landlord shall not be
liable in trespass or otherwise.
D. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this lease by reason of an
event of default, then notwithstanding such termination, Tenant shall
be liable for and shall pay to Landlord the sum of all rent and other
indebtedness accrued to the date of such termination, plus, as damages,
an amount equal to the then present value of the rent reserved
hereunder for the remainder portion of the lease term.
E. In the event that Landlord elects to repossess the demised premises
without terminating this lease, the Tenant shall be liable and shall
pay to Landlord all rent and other indebtedness accruing to the date of
such repossession, plus rent required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord
during the remainder of the term of this lease until the date of
expiration of the term, diminished by any net sums thereafter received
by Landlord through reletting the demised premises during said period
(after deducting expenses incurred by Landlord as provided in Paragraph
F of this Section XVI of this lease). In no event shall Tenant be
entitled to any excess of any rent obtained by reletting over and above
the rent payable hereunder by Tenant. Actions to collect amounts due
by Tenant as provided in this paragraph may be brought from time to
time, on one or more occasions, without the necessity of Landlord
waiting until expiration of the lease term.
F. In case of any event of default, Tenant shall also be liable for and
shall pay to Landlord in addition to any sums provided to be paid
above, broker's fees incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting
the whole or any part of the demised premises, the cost of removing and
storing Tenant's property, the cost of repairing, altering, remodeling
or otherwise putting the demised premises into condition acceptable to
a new tenant, and all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in
enforcing Landlord's remedies, including reasonable attorney's fees.
G. Landlord shall have and is hereby given and granted a lien upon all
fixtures, furniture, furnishings, equipment, supplies, and all other
personal property which are, or at any time during the term or any
renewal of the term of this lease shall be, in or upon the demised
premises, to secure the payment of the rental or other liabilities of
<PAGE>
Tenant to Landlord accruing hereunder, which lien may be enforced in
the manner provided by law (including the Commercial Code) with respect
to other liens upon personal property. Tenant hereby gives and grants
unto Landlord a security interest in and to all such fixtures,
furniture, furnishings, equipment, supplies, and other personal
property to secure said lien and all such indebtedness of Tenant to
Landlord and Tenant hereby gives and grants to Landlord authority to
execute, on behalf of Tenant, and to record, financing statements
evidencing said lien and the fact that said lien is secured.
H. All rights and remedies herein enumerated shall be cumulative and the
enumeration of specific rights or remedies shall not preclude the
exercise or prosecution of any other right or remedy afforded by law,
and such rights and remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently
and whenever and as often as occasion therefor arises.
XVII.
NOTICES
Any notice required or permitted pursuant to the terms and provisions of
this lease shall be deemed fully given or served if transmitted personally or
by certified or registered mail with return receipt requested, addressed to
Landlord at P. O. Box 2711, Evansville, Indiana 47728-0711 and to Tenant at the
address of the demised premises. Landlord or Tenant may be like written notice
at any time and from time to time designate a different address to which notices
shall subsequently be transmitted to them.
XVIII.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. If the demised premises are not surrendered at the expiration of the
term of this lease, or sooner termination thereof, Tenant shall
indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by
Tenant in so surrendering the premises, including without limitation,
any claims made by any succeeding tenants founded upon such delay, and
if such continuing possession is without the consent of Landlord,
Tenant shall be deemed trespassers and liable to Landlord for any and
all other damages occasioned by reason of such trespass. If, however,
Tenant continues in possession of the demised premises after the
expiration of the term of this lease with the consent or acquiescence
of Landlord, but without executing a new lease, Tenant shall be deemed
to be occupying said premises as tenants from month-to-month subject to
<PAGE>
all conditions, provisions, terms and obligations of this lease insofar
as the same are applicable to a month-to-month tenancy. Such month-to-
month tenancy may be terminated by Landlord by notice given pursuant to
the provisions of Section XVII of this lease.
B. All provisions hereof requiring procurement by Tenant of a consent or
approval by Landlord with respect to specific action shall be construed
as referring to written consents or approvals. The consent or approval
by Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or
approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's
consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act of Tenant.
C. Landlord shall have the right at any time to sell, transfer, or convey
the demised premises to any person, firm or corporation. Upon the
making of any such sale, transfer or conveyance, Landlord shall cease
to be liable under any covenant, condition, or obligation imposed upon
it by this lease or any of the terms and provisions hereof, all of
which shall run with the land and be binding upon the subsequent owner
or owners, thereof; provided, however, that any such sale, transfer or
conveyance shall be made subject to this lease.
D. Tenant agrees that upon request it will cooperate with Landlord in any
effort of Landlord to secure financing, and, to that end, they will
negotiate in good faith with Landlord with respect to any changes or
modifications in this lease which may be requested by any lending
institution to whom Landlord has made application for funds; provided,
however, Tenant will not be required to negotiate a change in the
rental payable by Tenant under this lease. Within five (5) days after
request therefor by Landlord, Tenant agrees to deliver in recordable
form a certificate to any proposed mortgagee or purchaser of the
demised premises certifying the date of commencement of the term of
this lease and (if such be the case) that this lease is in full
force and effect and that there are no defenses or offsets thereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have hereunto set their hands and
seals this 11th day of NOVEMBER, 1995.
