ITEM 12.  SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

    The following table sets forth, as of March 31, 2000 (unless otherwise
indicated), the number and percentage of shares of our common stock which,
according to information supplied to us or filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, are beneficially owned by:  (i) each person who
beneficially owns more than 5% of the common stock; (ii) each of our
directors, individually; (iii) each of our named executive officers; and (iv)
all of our directors and executive officers as a group.

    Percentage ownership in the following table is based on 8,582,827 shares
of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2000.  We have determined
beneficial ownership in the table in accordance with the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  In computing the number of shares
beneficially owned by any person and the percentage ownership of that person,
we have deemed shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by
that person that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable within
60 days of March 31, 2000 to be outstanding.  However, we have not deemed
these shares to be outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any
other person.  To our knowledge, except as set forth in the footnotes below,
each stockholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment
power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned
by such stockholder.
