The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-18529)
covering (i) 3,565,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common
Stock"), (ii) 310,000 Underwriters' Warrants, and (iii) 310,000 shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Underwriters' Warrants, was
declared effective on March 26, 1997.
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement is
being filed to deregister 465,000 shares of Common Stock. These shares of
Common Stock were not issued by the Registrant as the over-allotment option
was not exercised by the underwriters of the Registrant's initial public
offering.
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement shall
hereafter become effective in accordance with the provisions of Section 8(c)
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
