This Statement is filed on behalf of Frank A. DiFazio,  (hereinafter referred to
as (the  "Reporting  Person"),  a citizen of the United  States  whose  business
address is 711 Grand Boulevard, Deer Park, NY 11729 and DiFazio Electrical Inc.,
a corporation  wholly-owned by Frank A. DiFazio. The principal occupation of the
Reporting  Person is CEO and Sole  Stockholder of DiFazio  Electical  Inc., Deer

convicted in any criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors).  The Reporting Person has not, during the last five years, been a
party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative  body of competent
jurisdiction as a result of which proceeding he was or is subject to a judgment,
decree  or final  order  enjoining  future  violations  of,  or  prohibiting  or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect thereto.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person own 93,271 shares of Common Stock.

The aggregate  cost of the Common Stock owned by the Reporting  Person as of the
date hereof was approximately  $1,008,328.  Except as hereinafter indicated, the
funds used by the Reporting  Person to purchase the Common Stock have been,  and
it is expected  that funds used by him to purchase  additional  shares of Common
Stock, if additional  shares are purchased by him (See item 4, hereof),  will be
personal funds of the Reporting Person and working capital of DiFazio Electrical
Inc., of which the Reporting Person is the sole stockholder.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Person's  acquisition of Shares of Common Stock is for the purpose
of investment.  The Reporting  Person does not have any present plan or proposal
which  relates  to or would  result  in:  (a) the  Acquisition  by any person of
additional  securities  of the Issuer or the  disposition  of  securities of the
Issuer:   (b)  an  extraordinary   corporate   transaction  such  as  a  merger,
reorganization or liquidation,  involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) a sale or  transfer  of a material  amount of assets of the Issuer or any of
its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management
of the Issuer,  including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors  or to fill any  existing  vacancies  on the Board;  (e) any  material
change in the present  capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;  (f) any
other  material  change in the  Issuer's  business or corporate  structure;  (g)
changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments  corresponding thereto or
other actions which may impede the  acquisition  of control of the Issuer by any
person;  (h) causing a class of  securities  of the Issuer to be delisted from a
national  securities  exchange  or to cease to be  authorized  or  quoted  in an
inter-dealer  quotation system of a registered national securities  association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination
of registration  pursuant to Section 12(g) (4) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

The  Reporting  Person may acquire  additional  shares of Common  Stock but only
through  purchases from time to time in the open market at prices  prevailing in
the  market  at the  time of such  purchases  or  through  privately  negotiated
transactions  at prices which may or may not be related to prices  prevailing in
the open  market  at the time of such  purchases,  or by a  combination  of open
market and privately  negotiated  transactions.  The  Reporting  Person does not
intend to make a tender offer for shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Person's
acquisition  of additional  shares of Common Stock is, in all cases,  subject to
the  availability  of  shares  at  prices  deemed  by him to be  reasonable  and
consistent   with  prudent   investment   criteria   and  to  general   economic
circumstances.  As prices and  economic  factors are not  expected to be static,
there can be no assurances  that the Reporting  Person will purchase  additional
shares of Common Stock or that he will be  purchasing  shares at any given time;
nor can there be any  prediction  regarding the number of shares of Common Stock
that he will own at any given time or from time to time.

The Reporting Person reserves the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any or
all the shares of Common Stock he owns at any time or from time to time,
although he does not currently intend to or anticipate that he will sell any of
the Common Stock owned by him.

The Reporting Person currently has no understanding or agreement with any person
regarding the acquisition of Common Stock in a privately negotiated transaction.
Further, any such acquisition of Common Stock will, as set forth above, be
primarily subject to price and other economic considerations and, as price and
other economic factors are beyond his control, the Reporting Person cannot
predict whether or when he will acquire additional Common Stock or attain any
given level of investment in the Issuer

            ------------------------------------

to be the total number of shares of Common Stock presently outstanding.

(b) The Reporting Person has sole power to vote and dispose of the Common Stock
owned by him and shares the power to vote and the power to dispose of the shares
owned by DiFazio Electrical Inc.

There are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between
the Reporting Person and other persons with respect to the shares of the Issuer
presently owned by the Reporting Person.

Item 7.     MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
            ---------------------------------

                                   None.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify
that the information set forth in this statement is correct.
