               Not applicable.

Item 6.        Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another

               Encore Capital Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
               company located at 12007 Sunrise Valley Drive, Suite 460,
               Reston, VA 20191 ("Encore"), is the investment advisor to JNC.
               As such, it has the power, subject to ultimate approval by JNC,
               to sell or vote on behalf of JNC some or all of the shares of
               Common Stock to which this report relates.  Encore also serves
               as investment advisor to JNC Strategic Fund Ltd., a Cayman
               Islands corporation ("Strategic"), which holds (i) 2,000 shares
               of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock upon the conversion
               of which, and subject to the condition hereafter described, the
               Company is obligated to issue 198,255 shares of Common Stock

               ability to receive such shares of Common Stock upon such
               exercises and conversion is, however, contingent upon the
               Company amending its certificate of incorporation in order to
               increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.  As
               described above with respect to the shares of Common Stock
               reported herein as beneficially owned by JNC, subject to
               ultimate approval by Strategic, Encore may sell or vote on
               behalf of Strategic some or all of the, the securities owned by
               Strategic.
