Item 4. Description of Securities
---------------------------------
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
----------------------------------------------
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
-------------------------------------------------
Article VI of our By Laws permits us to indemnify our officers and
directors to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law. The Florida Business
Corporation Act allows us to indemnify each of our officers and directors who
are made a party to a proceeding if
(a) the officer or director conducted himself or herself in good
faith;
(b) his or her conduct was in our best interests, or if the
conduct was not in an official capacity, that the conduct was
not opposed to our best interests; and
(c) in the case of a criminal proceeding, he or she had no
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful.
We may not indemnify our officers or directors in connection with a proceeding
by or in our right, where the officer or director was adjudged liable to us, or
in any other proceeding, where our officer or director are found to have derived
an improper personal benefit. This discussion of Florida law and our articles of
incorporation and bylaws is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in
its entirety by our articles of incorporation, bylaws and Florida law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to our directors, officers and
controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the securities laws,
and is, therefore unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings
--------------------
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
A. (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration
statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or n the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
and price represent no more than a 20% change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
effective registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to
the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
the registration statement or any material change to
such information in the registration statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if
the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.

<PAGE>
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant in
the successful defense of an action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel, the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
