         Coronado  Explorations  Ltd.  (the  "Registrant"  or the  "Company") is
filing this Form 10-SB on a voluntary basis to:

         1  provide current, public information to the investment community;

         2  to expand the availability of secondary trading exemptions under the
            Blue  Sky  laws  and  thereby  expand  the  trading  market  in  the
            Registrant's securities, and

         3  to  comply  with  prerequisites  for  listing  of  the  Registrant's
            securities on NASDAQ.

ITEM 1.           DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

         The Registrant was incorporated on February 2, 1999. The Registrant has
no  subsidiaries  and no  affiliated  companies.  The  executive  offices of the
Registrant  are  located  at 397  Ventura  Crescent,  North  Vancouver,  British
Columbia, Canada, V7N 3G7.

         The  Registrant is engaged in the  exploration  of mineral  properties.
(see Part 1,  "Exploration and Development of the Coronado  Mineral  Property").
The  Registrant  is  referred  to as  being  in the  "development"  stage by its
auditors.  This term is  generally  used in  Financial  Accounting  Standards to
describe a company seeking to develop its ideas and products.  The Registrant is
not in the development  stage with regards to any mineral claim. No ore body has
been  discovered  and no  substantial  exploration  has been done on its mineral
claim.  The Registrant is purely an exploration  company.  There is no assurance
that any ore  body  will  ever be  found  and  that  the  Registrant  will  have
sufficient  funds to undertake the exploration  work required to identify an ore
body.

         Management  anticipates that the Registrant's  shares will be qualified
on the system of the National  Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc. ("NASD")
known as the Bulletin Board..

         The  Registrant  has no  revenue  to date from the  development  of its
mineral property, and its ability to effect its plans for the future will depend
on the availability of financing. Such financing will be required to develop the
Registrant's  mineral  property  to a  stage  where  a  decision  can be made by
management as to whether an ore body exists and can be successfully brought into
production.  The Registrant  anticipates obtaining such funds from its directors
and officers,  financial institutions or by way of the sale of its capital stock
in the future (see Part 1, Item 2 - "Plan of  Operations"),  but there can be no
assurance that the Registrant will be successful in obtaining additional capital
for  exploration  activities  from the sale of its capital stock or in otherwise
raising substantial capital.

PLANNED BUSINESS

         In addition to  exploring  and  developing  its mineral  property,  the
Registrant  plans to seek out  additional  mineral  properties  either by way of
purchase,  staking or joint venturing of other mineral properties.  (See Part 1,
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation").

         Much of the discussion  contained in this section is "forward  looking"
in that actual  results may  materially  differ from the  Registrant's  plans as
currently  contemplated.  Information concerning all the factors associated with
the  Registrant  is set forth in this  Item 1 and in Items 2 and 3 below.  FOR A
COMPLETE  UNDERSTANDING  OF SUCH FACTORS,  THIS ENTIRE  DOCUMENT,  INCLUDING THE
FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS  AND  THEIR  ACCOMPANYING  NOTES,  SHOULD  BE  READ IN ITS
ENTIRETY.

EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE CORONADO MINERAL PROPERTY

         The Registrant  staked  certain  mineral claims known as the "Coronado"
claim  near  Goldbridge,  British  Columbia,  Canada.  The claim  was  staked on
February 24, 1999 when the previous owners allowed the claim to lapse. The claim
covers 20 metric  units (500 ha) located  within the Bridge River Gold Camp near
the historic Bralorne-Pioneer Mine. The Bralorne-Pioneer Property represents the
largest single gold producer in British Columbia, having produced over 4,000,000
ounces  (130,000 kg) of gold from ore  averaging  0.53 oz/ton  during the period
1932-1971 (as set forth in an  independent  geological  report  prepared for the
Registrant  by Calvin  Church,  P. Geo.,  dated April 7, 1999).  Avino Mines and
Resources Ltd. and Bralorne-Pioneer Gold Mines Ltd. are considering reactivating
the mine that has near  surface  reserves  (above 800  level) of  432,500  tones
grading 10.63 g/tonne Au.(as indicated in the same geological report prepared by
Calvin Church).

         Calvin Church's report  summarizes  geology and  mineralization  in the
Bridge River mining camp and potential for  discoveries  on the Coronado  claim.
All of the material presented is from a literature search of B.C.  Department of
Mines  annual  reports and papers,  G.S.C Memoir 213,  BCGS maps and  Assessment
Report filings with the B.C. Department of Mines.

         Calvin Church did not visit the claim, which was covered in snow at the
time of staking, although he has worked on several properties in the vicinity of
the Coronado claim.

LOCATION, ACCESS AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE CORONADO CLAIM

         The Coronado claim is located  approximately  180  kilometres  north of
Vancouver  and  four  kilometres  southeast  of  the  town  of  Gold  Bridge  in
southwestern British Columbia.  The geographical centre of the claim is given by
the  U.T.M.  coordinates  516550E,  5631700N  (Lat.   50(degree)50'20"N,   Long.
122(degree)45'50"W)  on N.T.S. map sheet 92J/15.  The town of Gold Bridge can be
accessed by all  weather  gravel road  (highway  #40B) from  Lillooet or via the
Hurley River forestry road from Pemberton.  Access to the north end of the claim
is by four wheel drive vehicle up Steep Creek to the headwaters above 6,500 feet
elevation.  Helicopters  are  available  from bases in the towns of Pemberton or
Lillooet.

         The claim is situated at the  northwest  end of the Bendor Range within
the Coast  Mountains  where steep  northwest  facing  slopes range from 5,000 to
8,500 feet in elevation.  Sub-alpine scrub alder and hemlock trees grow at lower
elevations in the northwest  corner of the claim and rock exposure is good along
peaks and  ridges in the south  half of the  claim.  The  winters  are cold with
generally high snowfall accumulations and summers are hot and dry.

CLAIM STATUS

         The Coronado claim was staked by Edward Skoda for the Registrant and is
registered in the Lillooet  Mining Division of British  Columbia.  The claim was
then sold to Coronado Explorations Ltd., 397 Ventura Crescent,  North Vancouver,
British Columbia,  who own the claim outright.  Mineral tenure is secure for one
year from the date of staking as described below.

MINERAL HISTORY OF THE AREA

         The first  occurrence  of gold in the Bridge River area was recorded in
1863,  when Chinese  prospectors  found placer  deposits in the Bridge River. In
1896,  the first Lode  claims were  located on  sub-outcropping  quartz  fissure
veins. Subsequent discoveries continued until larger U.S. and Canadian interests
began to gain control of the fragmented mining properties during the 1920's.

         Most  production from the camp came from the Bralorne and Pioneer mines
which saw  production  levels peak during the 1930's and 1940's.  In 1959,  with
reserves  depleted and closure  imminent,  Pioneer Gold Mines  amalgamated  with
Bralorne  mines.  By 1971 Bralorne  mines  suspended  operations due to the high
costs of mining at increasing depths.  Combined,  the Bralorne and Pioneer mines
produced more gold than any other mine in British Columbia's history. During the
period 1900-1971  production totaled 4,154,119 ounces of gold and 950,510 ounces
of silver from 7,931,000 tons of ore averaging  0.53  ounces/ton  recovered gold
(British Columbia  Department of Mines annual reports and papers,  G.S.C. Memoir
213,  BCGS  maps  and  Assessment  Report  filings  with  the  British  Columbia
Department of Mines).

         Total production figures for the Bridge River mining camp reveal it has
been the biggest producer of gold in British Columbia's  history. Of the over 73
documented mineral  occurrences in the camp only five have achieved  significant
production.  Production  figures for these mines are tabled  below  (B.N.Church,
1987,   Geology   and   Mineralization   of  the  Bridge   River   Mining   Camp
(92J15,920/2,92J/16.).

         During  early  exploration  of the Bridge  River camp a number of small
vein showings were worked along the south shore of Carpenter  Lake.  Small-scale
production  of  silver-gold-antimony  ores was achieved in the 1930's and 1940's
from the Kelvin,  Olympic and Reliance  occurrences.  In 1986, Menika Mining Co.
Ltd.  initiated  drilling programs to test northwest  trending  arsenic-antimony
geochemical anomalies on the Reliance property,  two kilometers northwest of the
Coronado  claim.  In 1988 proven and drill  indicated  reserves stood at 410,916
tones  grading  5.96 grams per tonne gold  (George  Cross News Letter  April 14,
1988).

                                      5

         On the BRX property, three kilometres west of the Coronado claim, major
development  work  targeted  auriferous  quartz-carbonate  veins.  The  property
includes a large block of reverted  crown granted  claims and some modified grid
claims covering 1068 hectares and six major occurrences  (Golden Gate,  Arizona,
Ural,  Gloria  Kitty,  Whynot  and  California).  Over  5,400  metres of diamond
drilling and 9,000 metres of underground  development have been completed on the
BRX property  primarily on the Arizona,  Ural and California  vein systems.  The
only recorded  production was from the Arizona Mine, which produced 467 grams of
gold  and  311  grams  of  silver  from  4,343  tones  of ore in  1938  (Minfile
#092JNE024; Bralorne, Pioneer, Congress, Wayside, Reliance, Minto).

         Early  exploration work in the area of the Coronado claim is documented
in British Columbia Minister of Mines Reports  beginning in 1945.  Following the
discovery of a mineralized  quartz vein by a local  prospector,  Bralorne  Mines
Ltd.  took an option on the property ( then known as the Ben d'Or ) and explored
the prospect with a short adit (8m) and three short drill holes. Sulphide rich (
arsenopyrite  and pyrite ) portions of the quartz vein  assayed 4.46 oz/ton gold
and 7.5 oz/ton silver over 30 centimeters.  The drill holes,  however,  returned
inconclusive  results due to intensely  sheared ground  conditions and poor core
recovery and the company dropped its option. Following a period of dormancy, the
northeast  corner of the Coronado  claim was  restaked in 1974,  as the FOXY-BEE
group of claims  and vended to Rabbit  Oil and Gas Ltd.,  in 1980.  Arsenopyrite
mineralization  was  located  and  trenched  in Steep  Creek  approximately  1.6
kilometres northwest along strike from the original discovery adit (Ranger Adit)
however  details of the  trenching  were not  recorded.  An airborne  VLF-EM and
magnetic  survey was flown in 1981 over the claim  group and defined a number of
weak conductors and two moderate magnetic northwest trends.

         Newmont  Exploration  Canada Ltd.  conducted an  extensive  exploration
program on the Ranger 1-4 claims in 1983 and 1984. A total of 412 soil,  39 silt
and  139  rock  chip  samples  were  collected  and  analyzed  over  an  area of
approximately  1,600  hectares.  Some of Newmont's  program  focused on area now
covered by the Coronado claim, the east boundary of which passes 500 metres west
of the Ranger adit and Saddle Zone. A skarn zone was identified  along the ridge
just north of the peak  (8,790  ft) and just  inside  the east  boundary  of the
Coronado claim.  Immediately  north of the Coronado claim anomalous soil samples
from the North  Ridge  Zone  range up to 17,600  ppb Au and 5.3 ppm Ag and trend
southward onto the claim.  Tanker Oil and Gas Ltd. acquired the Ranger claims in
1985 and from 1985 to 1989  Levon  Resources  Ltd.  conducted  geochemical  soil
sampling, trenching and airborne geophysical surveys on the property as required
by a joint venture  agreement.  In 1988 a systematic  grid was  established  for
geochemical soil sampling along northeast  oriented lines near the headwaters of
Steep Creek and across the North Ridge Zone. Soil anomalies in this area were as
high as 205 ppb Au, 592 ppm As and 1.4 ppm Ag.  Airborne  geophysical  anomalies
outline several northwest  trending EM conductors  including one that appears to
trace the skarn zone on the east side of the Coronado claim.  Exploration on the
property  has been minimal  since 1990 and Levon  allowed the claims to lapse in
February 1999 when Edward Skoda staked the Coronado claim.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

         Government  mappers have published  comprehensive  descriptions  of the
geology of the Bridge River region and appear in C.E.Cairne's  article in1937 in
the Geology  and  Mineral  Deposits of the Bridge  River  Mining  Camp,  British
Columbia,  Geology Survey of Canada, Memoir 213, 140 pages, and more recently C.
Leitch  and C.I.  Godwin  in their  article  in 1986  entitled  "Geology  of the
Bralorne-Pioneer  Gold Camp" filed with the British Columbia Ministry

of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources,  Geological Fieldwork 1985, Paper 1986
- - 1, pp. 331-316,  and B.N.  Church in the next year in the same  publication on
paper 1987 -1, pp. 23-29.

           The region lies within a fault  bounded block of oceanic rocks called
the Bridge River terrane and sandwiched  between the larger accreted terranes of
Stikinia on the east and  Wrangellia on the west. The Bridge River terrane could
be abducted oceanic floor transported with one of the larger terranes.

         The base of the Bridge River terrane is composed of Permo-Triassic  (?)
back arc volcanics and sediments of the Fergusson  (Bridge River) Group. This is
overlain  by  formations  of  the   Triassic-Jurassic   Cadwallader  Group.  The
stratified  rocks are intruded by syn-volcanic  intermediate  plutons  (Bralorne
intrusives)  and faulted against  ophiolitic  ultramafic  intrusions  (President
Intrusions).  Jurassic  and  Cretaceous  basinal  sediments  and rift  volcanics
(Taylor Creek and Kingsvale Groups) are sequentially  intruded by Cretaceous and
Tertiary  plutons of felsic  composition  (Coast  Range and Bendor  Intrusions).
Relatively  flat  lying  Tertiary  intermediate  to  mafic  volcanics  (Rexmount
porphyry and Plateau basalt) cap the lithologic sequence.

STRATIGRAPH

         The principal  bedded rocks in the Bridge River Camp are the Fergusson,
Cadwallader and Taylor Creek Groups. On a regional scale they are exposed mainly
along a wide axial zone of a broad complex antiformal structure, that plunges to
the northwest  along an axis that passes through Shalath and Tyaughton lakes and
contains the main valleys of Bridge river and Seton lake.

         The oldest  known  unit in the area is the  Fergusson  or Bridge  River
Group (Middle Triassic and older) which consists primarily of thick sequences of
ribboned chert, schist, gneiss and some marble beds. In localized areas numerous
greenstone dykes and sills cut the sediments.

         The  Fergusson  Group is  overlain in turn by three  formations  of the
Cadwallader Group (Upper Triassic). From oldest to youngest they are the Pioneer
Formation,  Noel Formation and Hurley Formation and are best exposed in the area
of the  Bralorne-Pioneer  mine.  The Pioneer  Formation  consists of greenstones
often  described as pillow lavas and aquagene  breccias and appear  connected to
greenstone  feeders seen intruding the Fergusson  Group.  This unit forms one of
the principal  host rocks for gold veins in the Pioneer mine. The Noel Formation
is a black  argillite and siltstone  unit and overlies  Fergusson  cherts in the
area of Noel creek but nearby rests on greenstones of the Pioneer Formation. The
Hurley  Formation,  named  for type  exposures  in the  Hurley  river,  consists
essentially of brown to black  argillite  intercalated  with gritty  siltstones,
sandstones and some calcarenites.  The upper part of the formation contains beds
of coarse volcanic breccias ranging from dacitic to basaltic in composition.

         Cretaceous  sediments  of the Taylor  Creek Group  consists of a cyclic
sequences  of  polymictic   pebble  and  conglomerate   beds  interlayered  with
sandstones and siltstones.  A dark grey argillite  marker zone (50m) occurs near
the top of the succession estimated to exceed 3000 metres in the type section of
the Taylor Creek basin. The source of fragments within the conglomerate  beds is
believed to be from the Fergusson Group and Hurley Formation.

INTRUSIVES IN THE AREA

         The main igneous  intrusions  are the Bralorne  diorite,  the President
ultrabasic  rocks and quartz  diorite  and  granodiorite  of the Coast  plutonic
complex.  Radiometric dating has helped clarify the sequence of intrusive events
in the Bridge River area (Harrop and Sinclair  wrote an article in 1986 entitled
"A  Re-valuation  of  Production  Data,  Bridge  River-Bralorne  Camp" which was
published  in the  British  Columbia  Ministry  of Energy,  Mines and  Petroleum
Resources under Geological Fieldwork,  Paper 1986 - 1, pp. 303-310). Current age
data indicate  Bralorne  intrusive  stocks are intermediate in age between Upper
Cretaceous Coast Plutonic rocks west of the area and the younger Tertiary Bendor
pluton to the east.  Bendor  intrusions are the youngest of the major intrusions
in the Bridge River camp and  represent  the eastern edge of the Coast  Plutonic
Complex.

         The Bralorne diorite is a greenish-grey  rock,  variably  textured from
fine to course  grained and appears  mottled due a  reticulate  pattern of light
colored veinlets of felsic minerals.  Irregular shaped masses of so called "soda
granite"  are seen in both sharp and  gradational  contact  with the  diorite at
outcrop  scale.  The different  phases of Bralorne  intrusives  are exposed from
south of the  Pioneer  mine to just  north of the  town of Gold  Bridge  and are
principal host rocks for gold veins at Bralorne-Pioneer. The alignment and shape
of these bodies suggest  emplacement  along a major fault zone (ie:  Cadwallader
and Fergusson Faults).

         President  intrusive  ultrabasic  rocks  and  metamorphic   equivalents
(serpentinite)  form lenticular  bodies and occur along the same northwest trend
as  the  Bralorne  intrusives   suggesting  a  similar  method  of  emplacement.
Gold-bearing  veins  in  workings  of the  Bralorne  camp  lie  adjacent  to and
terminate against these serpentine bodies.

STRUCTURE OF THE AREA

         Repeated   cycles  of  folding  and  faulting  has  created  a  complex
structural  history in the Bridge  River  area which is  recorded  in the oldest
rocks of the area;  the  intricately  folded  Fergusson  Group.  The  structural
history  is  further  complicated  by  deformation  along  irregular  margins of
granitic plutons and rotation of beds by repeated episodes of faulting.

         The major fault lineaments  strike north and northwesterly and coincide
with zones of  ultramafic  rocks  mapped on the  surface.  The  principal  shear
direction  changes from  northwest in the area of the  Bralorne-Pioneer  mine to
north-south in the area north of Gold Bridge between Wayside and Tyaughton lake.

         Fault and vein  orientations are well documented from the old producing
mines at Bralorne  and  Pioneer.  Major faults of the area can be grouped in two
principle  systems,  each of which  comprises  two or more sets of  faults.  One
system  consists  of  two  sets  of   perpendicular   fractures,   which  strike
approximately at right angles to each other, and at acute angles to the trend of
formations.  The other  system  consists of two sets of  fractures  with opposed
dips,  but which  strike  parallel to each other and to the trend of the overall
formations.  Fractures of the first system  contain the  principle  veins of the
area and  formed  earlier  than the  second  as they are cut off by some  faults
belonging to the second  system.  The  fractures of the second system are mainly
shear zones in less competent  sedimentary units; whereas the veins which belong
to the first fracture system are in the more competent  Bralorne  intrusives and
Pioneer greenstones.

                                       8
<PAGE>
         The Fergusson fault and Cadwallader  shear represent the most important
and  continuous  fractures in the second  system.  The  Fergusson  fault,  which
strikes  northwesterly  to northerly and dips steeply  northeast,  can be traced
from the Pioneer  extension  property  through the Pioneer and Bralorne mines to
the California  workings of the BRX and the Wayside  property.  The  Cadwallader
shear roughly parallels the Fergusson, but dips southwest rather than northeast,
and bounds the west end of veins in the  Pioneer  and  Bralorne  mines.  Another
important  geologic  structure follows a chain of lakes beginning with Mead lake
in the south and running through Kingdom,  Noel, and McDonald lakes. The unnamed
fault was  confirmed  by drilling  in the Noel Lake area  during an  exploration
program  conducted  by  Levon  Resources  in  1994  (as  discussed  in  personal
communication  in 1998  with  Jim.  Miller-Tait  by  Calvin  Church,  author  of
geological report prepared for the Registrant).

MINERALIZATION IN THE BRIDGE RIVER CAMP

         The Bridge River mining camp contains 73 mineral occurrences covering a
roughly elliptical area that includes the former producing  gold-silver mines of
Bralorne and Pioneer . Total production from these two mines was about 4,150,000
ounces gold and 0.95 million  ounces silver from  7,900,000  tons of ore grading
0.53 oz/ton gold and 0.12 oz/ton silver  (between 1899 and 1971).  This makes it
the largest gold producer in British Columbia's history  approaching the size of
major vein camps in the  Canadian  Shield such as the  Hollinger  and  MacIntyre
mines, which produced more than 10,000,000 ounces of gold each.

         Periodic  reactivation  along extensive  fracture  systems provided the
necessary channelways for distributing mineral bearing solutions in the camp and
also  served  as the loci  for  emplacement  of the  Bralorne  intrusive  suite.
Auriferous  quartz  veins tend to be hosted in dilatent  zones,  which formed in
competent brittle diorites, sodagranites and greenstones.  Episodic movements in
dilatent  fissure  zones formed  characteristic  banding of sulphides and native
gold  in the  ore at  Bralorne.  Where  fissures  pass  through  less  competent
sedimentary  rocks the veins tend to pinch out and horsetail due to lack of open
spaces.

         The Minto and Congress  former  producing  mines are considered  silver
rich and have relatively low Au/Ag ratios compared to Bralorne (5.4) and Pioneer
(4). Minto produced 546.0 kg gold and 1,573.0 kg silver from 79,073 tones of ore
resulting in a Au/Ag ratio of 0.35.  Peak  production  years were in the 1930's.
Production  at the  Congress  mine was at a test scale only and  recorded 2.5 kg
gold and 1.3 kg silver recovered from 943 tones of material mined giving a Au/Ag
ratio of 1.9. The alignment of the Congress,  Minto and Reliance deposits, along
with high  silver  values  and  associated  antimony  mineralization,  defines a
separate younger metalogenic trend within the Bridge River camp.

METAL ZONING PATTERS

         Several workers (being G.J.  Woodsworth in 1977 in an article  entitled
"Metal  Distribution  Patterns  across the Eastern  Flank of the Coast  Plutonic
Complex, South-Central British Columbia, Economic Geology", Volume 72, 1977, pp.
170-183  and J.C.  Harrop in 1986 in an  article  entitled  "A  Re-valuation  of
Production Data, Bridge River-Bralorne Camp" published with the British Columbia
Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources,  Geological Fieldwork,  1985,
Paper 1986 - 1, pp. 303 - 310) have noted the metal  zoning of  deposits  in the
Bridge River camp and their position relative to the Coast granitic  intrusives.
In this  model the Coast  plutons  are the heat  source and  possible  origin of
metals  which move  laterally  across the  eastern  flank of the Coast  Plutonic
Complex.  Supporting evidence for the model points to a 35 kilometre zonation of
deposits  which are  arsenic  rich  nearer the core

                                       9
<PAGE>

(Bralorne-Pioneer)  passing  through  an  antimony  zone  (Congress,  Minto)  to
deposits enriched in mercury (Lillomer prospect). The zones progressed southwest
to northeast, from oldest to youngest, and some overlapping or gradation between
zones is apparent.

         At the Congress mine  gold-silver-antimony  ore is hosted in shear/vein
systems  associated with Tertiary porphyry dykes distal to granitic  intrusions.
The shear/vein  systems contain cinnabar which would not be stable at the higher
temperatures of formation for quartz veins at Bralorne-Pioneer.  Metals are also
vertically zoned at the Congress where gold and arsenopyrite increase with depth
at the same time as stibnite  decreases (as  indicated in an article  written by
Harrop and Sinclair in 1986).  The same study analyzed  production data from the
Bralorne  mine and noted a similar  enrichment  of gold with depth  expressed as
gold/silver ratios which was not due to changes in the extraction process.

PROPERTY GEOLOGY

         Massive to finely bedded cherty  argillites and volcanics of the Bridge
River (Fergusson) Group outcrop and underlie the claim area.  Argillites are not
well  exposed  in stream  valleys  due to their  fractured  nature  and  weather
brown-orange  when exposed at higher  elevations.  Dark green to purple  colored
basalts  of the  Pioneer  Formation  weather  brown  and  provide  the  host for
mineralized  veins on the  Reliance  occurrence  on the Menika  Mining Co.  Ltd.
property two kilometers to the north.  Tertiary aged diorite porphyry dykes have
been found to cut the Bendor pluton and were probably emplaced at about the same
time but have not yet been mapped on the  property.  Similar  dioritic  feldspar
porphyry  dykes are aligned  parallel to bedding at the Minto and Congress mines
and are  related  to  mineralizing  events  there.  Most  mineralization  on the
property is  associated  with major  northwest  trending  steeply  dipping fault
zones. Overburden is fairly extensive on the claim and consists of glacial till,
large boulder fields and moraine deposits.

         Geological  mapping  at 1:5000  scale by  Newmont  Exploration  in 1984
indicates  much of the Coronado  claim is underlain  by  well-bedded  cherts and
rusty  siliceous  cherts  interbedded  with mafic  volcanic  flows and argillite
interbeds.  The chert  unit has been very  tightly  folded in a  north-northwest
direction with steep  subvertical  dips.  The  greenstone  unit is less deformed
except when in fault contact with the chert unit along the primary stratigraphic
contact  where  interlayers  of chert  occur  within  the  greenstone  along the
contact.  These features trend  approximately  north-south with a steep westerly
dip (80-85(degree)).  Bedded and crosscutting narrow  quartz-carbonate veins and
lenses occur  sporadically  within the sediments  occasionally  containing minor
pyrite. Several pale grey to white limestone units outcrop along the ridge along
the northeast boundary and at one location exhibit contact  metamorphic or skarn
mineralization.  Outcrops of brown- weathering  serpentinite or peridotite occur
along the Steep Creek  valley and further  southeast  along the east side of the
ridge.

         Most of the alteration in the rocks  southeast of Carpenter Lake is due
to low  grade  regional  metamorphism  (chlorite,  calcite,  hematitic  zones in
greenstone  etc.).  Quartz veins  (GREATER  THAN 1cm) are abundant in the chert,
whereas  calcite veins (1 to 5cm) are common in greenstone.  Near the contact of
the two  major  rock  units  the  greenstone  is  pervasively  carbonatized  and
iron-carbonate  alteration  is noted.  Rare large quartz  veins,  up to 50 cm in
width,  occur within the greenstone.  A large  silicified zone is located on the
east slope of the Steep Creek valley where  quartz-filled  fractures  and silica
flooding  occur in thinly  bedded cherts or brecciated  cherts.  Cairnes  (1937)
mapped a large fault through Sucker Lake and extending southward along Fergusson
Creek west of the property. Miller-Tait (1998) discovered a north-south trending
unnamed  fault he  believes  defines  the east  boundary  of all the  faults  at
Bralorne-Pioneer.  The  fault  follows  a chain of  lakes  that  includes  Mead,
Kingdom,  Noel and McDonald lakes. Sheared


                                       10
<PAGE>
and highly altered outcrops mapped on the south bank of Steep Creek are evidence
for a steep  northwest  trending shear or fault zone. On the north side of Steep
Creek,  Menika  Mining's  drill  programs have targeted  crosscutting  northeast
trending structures hosting gold-arsenic-stibnite mineralization.

         Mineralization  consists  of  pyrrhotite,  pyrite and trace  amounts of
chalcopyrite hosted primarily within volcanics and feldspar porphyry dykes. Most
sulphide occurrences are narrow, generally less than one metre, containing minor
quartz-carbonate  lenses  and are in close  proximity  to the  sediment/volcanic
contact zone.  Minor gossans occur in the underlying  sediments near the contact
zone. The contact zones represent the best exploration targets although economic
grade  mineralization  has not yet been  discovered.  Disseminated  fine  pyrite
occurs in a skarnified limestone unit along the east boundary ridge however soil
and rock chip samples returned low values of gold and silver

CONCLUSIONS

o    The  Coronado  claim is  situated  within  the  Bridge  River gold camp and
     includes the former producing mines of Bralorne and Pioneer.  Together they
     produced  more than 7 million  tones of ore  grading  18 grams per tonne (4
     million  ounces),  making it the largest  gold  producer  in B.C.  history.
     Typically  gold and  silver was won from ore  shoots in  auriferous  quartz
     veins averaging 2 metres wide, 100 - 200 metres in strike length,  with dip
     lengths up to 2000 metres.  Key factors in the mineralizing  events include
     proximity to the ultramafic President  intrusives,  the hosting of veins in
     brittle  Bralorne  intrusives  and Pioneer  greenstones  and repeated fault
     movements of dilational fissure zones and fault intersections.

o    Regional  studies of  mineral  occurrences  within  the  Bridge  River camp
     describe  lateral  mineral  zoning  across the  eastern  limit of the Coast
     Plutonic Complex.  Older high temperature  gold-arsenic rich deposits occur
     near the core of the complex  (Bralorne-Pioneer) and grade gradually into a
     younger  silver-antimony  rich  zone  (Congress-Minto)  then  give  way  to
     deposits rich in mercury (Lillomer prospect) at the periphery. The Coronado
     claim is situated in the transition zone between gold-arsenic rich deposits
     and the silver-antimony rich prospects.

o    Several old workings occur close to the property boundaries of the Coronado
     claim (California,  Gloria Kitty, Ural, Arizona and Reliance) some of which
     sustained small-scale production of gold-silver-antimony ores. The Reliance
     property has proven and drill  indicated  reserves of 410,916  tones of ore
     grading 5.96 grams/tonne gold. The Ranger prospect, 500 metres to the east,
     has produced high grade arsenopyrite-pyrite  mineralization in quartz veins
     grading  4.46  oz/ton  gold  and  7.5  oz/ton  silver  over a  width  of 30
     centimetres (12 inches).

o    Minor elevated  gold/arsenic values (up to 205ppb Au / 592 ppm As) occur in
     the North Ridge area and trend southward into the Coronado  property.  Past
     workers  have  noted  that  significant  overburden  may  have  masked  the
     geochemical  signature and that  sampling  density may be  insufficient  to
     properly define mineralized zones.

o    Several northwest trending VLF-EM conductors cross the property parallel to
     the Steep Creek valley and in line with the Ranger prospect. The lineations
     could be caused by fault, shear and/or contact zones which can be important
     indicators   of  sulphide  and   sometimes

                                       11
<PAGE>
     native  gold   mineralization.   Intersecting   lineations  (  ie  -  fault
     intersections  ) such as occurs at the  Ranger  prospect ( AR# 18,432 ) are
     especially important features requiring ground follow up.

o    Bridge River (Fergusson) Group cherty argillite units underlay the Coronado
     claim and host  silver-antimony-gold  mineralization in shears and veins on
     the nearby Reliance prospect.  Similar mineralization styles occur directly
     across Carpenter Lake at the Congress property where some of the host rocks
     also include fissured Tertiary feldspar porphyry dykes.

RECOMMENDATIONS BY CALVIN CHURCH, P. GEO.

o    Air  photo  interpretation  and  reconnaissance   mapping  is  required  to
     determine   structural  breaks  and  intersecting   fault  structures  very
     important to ground  preparation  and the formation of mineral  deposits in
     the area.

o    Construction of a soil geochemical grid across structural  features sampled
     at 20 metre  intervals on lines spaced 100 metres  apart.  Major  northwest
     striking stratigraphic contacts (greenstone-chert) should be prospected and
     the  grids  orientated  perpendicular  to them  should  they  appear  to be
     mineralized.

o    Prospecting and detailed  geological mapping at 1:2000 scale or better over
     the entire  claim  area.  Prospecting  could be  prioritized  according  to
     favorable geologic contacts especially where VLF-EM conductors have already
     been identified.

o    Providing  favorable results are obtained in the soil geochemical  sampling
     program additional  exploration  consisting of trenching and drilling would
     be recommended to target anomalies from that program.

REGISTRANT'S MAIN PRODUCT

         The   Registrant's   primary   product  will  be  the  exploration  and
development of its mineral property which might eventually result in the sale of
minerals,  both precious and  commercial.  The Registrant is not at the stage of
development whereby minerals can be mined and sold thereby giving the Registrant
a cash flow.

REGISTRANT'S EXPLORATION FACILITIES

         The  Registrant  will be exploring and  developing  its mineral  claims
initially  in the Bralorne  area of British  Columbia and does not plan to build
any mill or smelter until such time as a production  decision is made. This will
be several years into the future  before the need to build a permanent  facility
is warranted. There currently exists a mill near the old mine of Bralorne. It is
not currently operational because of upgrading during the last several years. In
the event the  Registrant  finds an ore body and  requires  milling  facilities,
negotiations could be entered into with the current mill owners.

         During the exploration  period, the Registrant will use tent facilities
to house its geological  workers since this will be by far the most economic way
to proceed.

RISK INHERENT IN MINERAL PROPERTIES

         There are certain inherent risks with mineral properties from the point
of view of the Registrant and its shareholders as follows:

                                       12
<PAGE>
      1. The Coronado claim does not contain a known body of commercial ore and,
         therefore,  any  program  conducted  on  these  properties  would be an
         exploratory search of ore.

      2. There is no certainty that any expenditures  made in the exploration of
         the  Coronado   property  will  result  in  discoveries  of  commercial
         quantities  of ore.  Most  exploration  projects  do not  result in the
         discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore.

     3.  Resource  exploration and development is a speculative business in that
         a  company  might not be able to raise any  funding  subsequent  to the
         initial capital.

     4.  Failure to discover  mineral deposits but from finding mineral deposits
         which,  though present,  are  insufficient in size or grade to return a
         profit from production.  The  marketability of any minerals acquired or
         discovered  may be affected by  numerous  factors  which are beyond its
         control  and  which  cannot  be  accurately  predicted,  such as market
         fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral
         markets and processing equipment,  and such other factors as government
         regulations,  including  regulations  relating to royalties,  allowable
         production,  importing  and  exporting of minerals,  and  environmental
         protection.  The mineral  industry  is  intensely  competitive  and the
         Registrant competes with other companies that have greater resources.

     5.  Mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk. Hazards such
         as unusual or unexpected  formations and other conditions are involved.
         The Registrant may become subject to liability for pollution,  cave-ins
         or hazards  against which it cannot insure or which it may not elect to
         insure.  The payment of such  liabilities may have a material,  adverse
         effect on the Registrant's financial position.

      6. Prior to commencing  mining  operations on any of its  properties,  the
         Registrant  must meet  certain  stringent  environmental  requirements.
         Compliance  with  these  requirements  may  prove to be  difficult  and
         expensive.  Fortunately  the Registrant is currently in the exploration
         stage where a system of  constructing  grids and soil  sampling will be
         the  first  exploration  procedure.  Under  the  Mines  Act of  British
         Columbia, the Registrant is not required to complete an application for
         submission  to the district  inspector.  No bond will have to be posted
         with the mining branch to ensure  environmental clean up. Nevertheless,
         the Registrant will be required to file an application if it decides to
         continue  exploration  activities by either  trenching,  bulk sampling,
         drilling or developing an adit. A bond,  the amount to be determined by
         the district inspector, will have to be posted to ensure adequate clean
         up of the site upon abandonment. At this point the Registrant will have
         to prepare a detailed  application  that will include a deactivation or
         reclamation plan. The reclamation plan will have to be completed within
         one year of cessation of exploration  unless otherwise  approved by the
         district  inspector.  At this time,  management is unable to assess the
         financial  impact of any  environmental  damage other than knowing that
         the posted bond will be  forfeited in full if the  Registrant  does not
         complete the reclamation correctly.

      7. While the  Registrant  has obtained the usual  industry  standard title
         reports  with  respect  to  the  Coronado  claim,  this  should  not be
         construed  as a guarantee  of title.  This  property  may be subject to
         prior  unregistered  agreements  or transfers or native land claims and
         title may be affected by undetected defects.  Certain of the claims may
         be under dispute and resolutions of a dispute may result in the loss of
         all of  such  property  or a  reduction  in the  Registrant's  interest
         therein.

                                       13
<PAGE>
      8. The  Coronado  claim has never  been  surveyed  and,  accordingly,  the
         precise  location of the  boundaries  of the property and  ownership of
         mineral rights on specific  tracts of land  comprising the property may
         be in doubt.

L.       OTHER MINERAL PROPERTIES

         The Registrant has not identified any other mineral  properties  either
for staking or purchasing.  It is  contemplated  that the  Registrant  will seek
other  mineral  properties  during  the fall of 1999 in order to  diversify  its
holdings into other areas of interest and minerals.  The  Registrant  has not as
yet inaugurated any steps towards the  investigation of any mineral  properties,
and does not presently have the financial  capacity to do so. Any staking and/or
purchasing of mineral  properties may involve the issuance of substantial blocks
of the Registrant's  shares. The Registrant does not contemplate  purchasing any
mineral properties from its officers and directors.

EMPLOYEES

         As at April 30, 1999, the Registrant did not have any employees  either
part  time or full  time.  Initially  the  Registrant  will not wish to bear the
burden of carrying  full time  employees  especially  during  periods when it is
difficult to work on the property due to weather  conditions.  Nevertheless  the
executive  officers  undertook  the  responsibility  of initially  identifying a
mineral property of merit,  incorporating the Company,  obtaining the assistance
of professionals as needed,  identifying  potential  investors to contribute the
initial "seed  capital",  coordinating  various  filing  requirements  and other
matters  normally  performed by the executive  officers.  They were not paid for
these  services  in  cash  by  the  Registrant  but  the  Registrant  has  given
recognition in the financial statements to this contribution by expensing $1,500
for services of the  President  and  crediting  capital  contribution  of a like
amount.

         The Registrant is not a party to any employment contracts or collective
bargaining agreements.  The British Columbia area has a relatively large pool of
people experienced in exploration and development of mineral  properties;  being
mainly  geologists  and mining  consultants.  In  addition,  there is no lack of
people who have experience in working on mineral  properties  either as laborers
or  prospectors.  The Registrant  will use  independent  workers and consultants
initially on a part time basis.

COMPETITION

         In Canada there are numerous mining and exploration companies, both big
and small. All of these mining and exploration  companies are seeking properties
of merit and  availability of funds. The Registrant will have to compete against
such  companies  to  acquire  the  funds to  develop  its  mineral  claims.  The
availability  of funds for  exploration is sometimes  limited and the Registrant
might find it difficult to compete with larger and more well-known companies for
capital.  Even though the Registrant has the rights to the mineral on its claims
there is no guarantee it will be able to raise sufficient funds in the future to
maintain its mineral claims in good standing. Therefore, if the situation occurs
that it does not have  sufficient  funds for  exploration the claims might lapse
and be staked by other mining interests.  The Registrant might be forced to seek
a joint venture partner to assist in the  development of its mineral claims.  In
this case, there is the possibility that the Registrant might not be able to pay
its  proportionate  share of the  exploration  costs and might be  diluted to an
insignificant carried interest.

         Even  when a  commercial  viable  ore body is  discovered,  there is no
guarantee  competition in refining the ore will not exist.  Other  companies may
have  long  term  contracts  with  refining  companies  thereby  inhibiting  the
Registrant's  ability to process its ore and eventually market it. At


                                       14
<PAGE>

this point in time the Registrant  does not have any  contractual  agreements to
refine any potential ore it might discover on its mineral claims.

         The  exploration  and  development  business is highly  competitive and
highly fragmented,  dominated by both large and small mining companies.  Success
will largely be dependent on the Registrant's ability to attract talent from the
mining field.  There is no assurance  that the  Registrant's  mineral  expansion
plans will be realized.

ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                  OR PLAN OF OPERATION

         The  discussion  contained in this Item 2 is "forward  looking" in that
actual work performed on the  Registrant's  mineral property may differ from the
recommended  work program as set forth in the  geological  report dated April 7,
1999  prepared  by Calvin  Church,  P.Geo..  Factors  that could  cause the work
program to differ are described throughout this Form.

PLAN OF OPERATION

         To date the Registrant has  concentrated  on the Coronado claim. In the
future,  the  Registrant  will seek to  investigate  other mining  properties to
determine which ones are of merit and are of interest to the Registrant. Subject
to the  availability  of  financing,  the  Registrant  will seek to increase its
inventory of mineral  properties  and, if acceptable to  management,  enter into
joint venture  agreements to develop various other mineral  properties of merit.
(See Part 1, Item 1 - "Description of the  Business").  The Registrant will seek
to generate  such funds  through  the sale of  securities  and/or  institutional
financing.  If an underwriter  can be found,  a public  offering of common stock
will be  considered;  alternatively  the  Registrant  will  seek to raise  funds
through a private offering of securities to an institutional  buyer or through a
registered  broker dealer.  The Registrant does not presently have any financing
arranged for nor has any underwriter yet expressed interest in such an offering,
and  there  can be no  assurance  that an  underwriter  can be  found  on  terms
acceptable to the Registrant.  In the absence of such financing,  the Registrant
may be unable to put its plans into effect.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As at April 30, 1999, the  Registrant had $5,663 of assets,  and $9,110
of  liabilities of which $6,475 is due to the President of the  Registrant.  The
cash equivalent as at April 30, 1999 was $5,663.

         The  Registrant  has  no  contractual   obligations  for  either  lease
premises,  employment  agreements or work  commitments on the Coronado claim and
has made no commitments to acquire any asset of any nature.

         Operational and administrative  expenses of the Registrant for 1999 are
projected to be approximately $4,500 which will comprise audit ($1,500),  filing
fees with regulatory authorities -Edgar ($1,200), transfer agent's fees ($1,000)
and miscellaneous  ($750). The Coronado claim is in good standing until February
2000 and if warranted the Registrant need not spend any money on its claim until
that date.  The  current  cash  position  is  sufficient  to pay the above noted
expenses and if required the officers and directors can advance additional funds
to the Registrant.

         Since  February 2, 1999,  the date of  inception,  the  Registrant  has
incurred the following expenses:

       Audit fee                                  (i)       $   1,500
       Bank charges                              (ii)              15
       Geology report                           (iii)           1,270
       Incorporation costs written-off           (iv)             519
       Management fee                             (v)           1,500
       Office and miscellaneous                  (vi)              30
       Rent                                      (vii)            900
       Staking costs                            (viii)            348
       Telephone                                  (ix)            300
       Transfer agent's fees                       (x)          2,265
                                                            ---------
                Total expenses for the period               $   8,647
                                                            =========


                                       15
<PAGE>
         (i) Audit fee - $1,500

         The  Registrant  had its financial  statements  audited as at April 30,
         1999, as attached to this Form 10-SB. The accounting and preparation of
         a working paper file for  submission to the auditor was prepared by the
         Registrant's President.

         (ii) Bank changes - $15

         Monthly  service  charges for  operating  the account as charged by the
         Bank of Montreal.

         (iii) Geology report - $1,270

         The Registrant engaged the services of Calvin Church, P. Geo., to write
         a report to the Registrant detailing the mineralization on the Coronado
         claim and recommending a future work program. This report was completed
         on April 7, 1999 and has been  summarized  on page 4 of this Form under
         the  heading  of  "Exploration  and  Development  of  Coronado  Mineral
         Property."

         (iv) Incorporation costs written-off - $519

         The Registrant has treated the costs of  incorporation  as period costs
         and has  written  them off as an expense in the current  period  rather
         than capitalize them and  amortization  them over a period of time. The
         actual cost of  incorporating in the State of Delaware was $255 but due
         to an error in establishing  the authorized share capital at 25,000,000
         common shares at a par value of $0.001 an  additional  cost of $264 was
         incurred.

         (v) Management fee - $1,500

         The  Registrant  has not  paid any fees to its  directors  or  officers
         during the current period.  Nevertheless,  the Registrant realizes that
         there is a cost involved in the  directors  and officers  devoting time
         and effort to the affairs of the  Registrant.  Therefore,  a management
         fee of $1,500 has been  expensed and  credited to capital  contribution
         during the current period.

         (vi) Office and miscellaneous - $30

         Office and miscellaneous  represents the printing of cheques for use by
         the Registrant.

         (vii) Rent - $900

         The  Registrant  uses the personal  residents  of the  President of the
         Registrant as an office. No charge has been incurred by the Registrant.
         Nevertheless,  the Registrant  recognizes that there is a cost to using
         an office and  therefore  has  expensed  $900 and  credited  to capital
         contribution a similar amount.


                                       16
<PAGE>

         (viii) Staking costs - $348

         The  Registrant  engaged  the  services  of  Edward  Skoda to stake the
         Coronado  claim in the  Bralorne  area of British  Columbia.  Mr. Skoda
         invoiced the Registrant for his staking and recording costs.

         (ix) Telephone - $300

         The  Registrant  has  not  incurred  any  telephone  charges  to  date.
         Nevertheless,  the  Registrant  recognizes  the  fact  that  there is a
         telephone  cost to operating a business and therefore has expensed $300
         with an  offsetting  credit to capital  contribution.  This expense was
         determined  on the fair market value of obtaining a telephone  line and
         operating for a three month period.

         (x) Transfer agent's fees - $2,265

         Transfer  agent's  fees  comprise  $1,200  as the  annual  fee  paid to
         maintain an account with the transfer agent and $1,065 for  preparation
         and  issuance of share  certificates.  The  Registrant  has treated for
         accounting  purposes  the annual fee of $1,200 as a period cost and has
         written it off in the current period rather than amortizing it over the
         entire year.

         Management  estimates  that  the  current  funds  on hand  will  not be
sufficient to allow the Registrant to undertake an exploration activities on the
Coronado  mineral  claim but is  sufficient  satisfy  all  outstanding  accounts
payable,  other  than  due to the  President  of the  Registrant,  and  maintain
operations for several  months.  The funds required over the next several months
will be for filing fees, accounting and general office expenses.

         Management  does  not  believe  the  Company's   operations  have  been
materially affected by inflation.

ITEM 3.           DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         The Coronado claim consists of one 20 unit metric claim situated within
the Bridge River gold camp near the town of Gold Bridge, 160 kilometres north of
Vancouver, British Columbia. The property is 100% owned by the Registrant.

The Bridge River camp is host to 73 documented  mineral  localities two of which
contained  substantial  tonnage of gold and silver ore. The Bralorne and Pioneer
former mines  produced  4,150,000  ounces of gold and 950,000  ounces of silver,
from  7,900,000  tons of ore grading  0.53  oz/ton gold and 0.12 oz/ton  silver,
between 1899 and 1971  (principle  production  was from  1932-1971).  Total gold
production  from the  former  producing  mines in the Bridge  River camp  remain
foremost in British Columbia's history (see Part 1- "Exploration and Development
of the Coronado Claim).

         Regional  patterns of metal  zonation  across the eastern  flank of the
Coast  Plutonic  Complex divide the camp into gold rich and silver rich deposits
related  to  the   proximity   with  the  central   plutons.   `Congress   type'
mineralization,  represented by low  gold-silver  ratios and antimony rich ores,
developed  distal to coast  granitic  intrusives  in shear  zones  and  Tertiary
porphyry dykes. Mineralization at the Bralorne and Pioneer mines consist of gold
and  arsenopyrite  bearing quartz veins filling en echelon tension  fractures in
the Bralorne diorite and Pioneer  greenstones.  The Coronado property is located
in a transition zone between  gold-arsenic rich and silver-antimony  rich zones.
Although  economic  mineralization  has not yet been identified on the property,
soil geochemical  sampling has defined one multielement  geochemical

                                       17
<PAGE>
anomaly  and several  north-south  trending  VLF-EM  conductors  within  altered
volcanic and sedimentary rocks.

         An exploration program including  reconnaissance  mapping,  prospecting
and  geochemical  sampling  is  recommended  to  determine  the  extent  of  the
mineralizing system on the Coronado property.  Further programs of trenching and
drilling  are  recommended  contingent  on favorable  results of each  preceding
exploration phase.

OFFICES

         The Registrant's executive offices are located at 397 Ventura Crescent,
North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The office is located in the personal
residence  of the  President  of  the  Registrant.  There  is no  charge  to the
Registrant for office but an imputed charge of $900 has been expensed during the
current period with an offsetting entry to capital contribution.  The Registrant
realizes it will  eventually  require an office once it has started  exploration
work on the Coronado claim. No office space has been identified at this time.

INCORPORATION IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE

         The  Registrant  incorporated  in the  State of  Delaware  rather  than
British  Columbia mainly due to the tax reasons.  In addition,  both the Federal
and Provincial  Governments impose tax on any profits made. This tax could range
as high as 51% of net income.  By having a Delaware based company the Registrant
will only be subject to a 15% withholding tax as set forth in the Canada/ US Tax
Treaty.

OTHER PROPERTY

The  Registrant  does not own any other  property  other  than the rights to the
minerals located on the Coronado claim.

SECURITIES OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS

         The following table sets forth certain  information with respect to the
beneficial  ownership  of each person who is known to the  Registrant  to be the
beneficial  owner of more than 5% of the  Registrant's  Common Stock as of April

(*) It is  anticipated  that  Zarcan  Minerals  Inc.  will seek a listing on the
    Vancouver Stock Exchange within the near future.

         Mr. Mide has not been involved in any public  company  either in Canada
or the United  States and has not been  associated  with any OTC Bulletin  Board
company to date. As noted above,  Mr. Mide has had  experience in mining and has
been a director of several mining companies during the past several years.

         Stacey  Bligh,26,  has been the Secretary  Treasurer of the  Registrant
since its inception.  She graduated from Edward Milne  Secondary  School in 1990
with the Dogwood  Diploma  after having  achieved the Honor Roll Status for four
consequent  years before  obtaining a position with Westport Design Centre where
her responsibilities  were preparing bid sheets for large development  projects,
job costing and co-coordinating activities with various departments. In 1992 she
attended the  University of Victoria for two years where she majored in Biology.
Subsequent  to leaving  university  Ms. Bligh became an assistant  appraiser for
D.R. Coell & Associates in Victoria, British Columbia where her duties

                                       22
<PAGE>
comprised  proof reading all  residential  property  appraisals and ensuring the
legal matters were attended to. In 1995 she moved to Whistler,  British Columbia
and worked for Re/Max  completing  all  closing  documentation  for real  estate
projects. Subsequently she was employed by Whistler Resort Association where she
was  responsible  for food and beverage  accounting and supervising all staff at
functions involving cash sales.  Presently Ms. Bligh is employed by her personal
wholly-owned   company   undertaking   administrative  work  for  various  other
companies.

         None of the  Directors  or  Executive  Officers  work full time for the
Registrant, but intend to devote such time as their responsibilities require. It
is estimated  that monthly time  attributed to the  President of the  Registrant
will be approximately 20 hours,  comprising mainly administrative and accounting
duties,  whereas  the  Secretary  Treasurer  will  devote  10  hours  per  month
consisting mainly of preparation of corporate documents. This time will increase
when the  Registrant  undertakes  a work  program on its  property.  None of the
Registrant's  Directors are currently  directors of other  companies  registered
under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

         There are no family  relationships  between  the  directors,  executive
officers or with any person under  consideration for nomination as a director or
appointment as an executive officer of the Registrant.

ITEM 6.           EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

         None of the Registrant's  executive officers have received compensation
since the Registrant's inception.

         The  following  table  sets forth  compensation  paid or accrued by the
Registrant during the period ended April 30, 1999 to the Registrant's  President

ITEM 7.           CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         The  Registrant  has never before filed a  prospectus  specified  under
Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 at this time. The Registrant  raised
funds from its officers and directors relatives, friends and business associates
as more fully described below.

Shares issued to Directors and Officers

         The  directors  and officers of the  Registrant  subscribed  for 50,000
shares at $0.01 per share for cash consideration. The breakdown of the shares is
as follows:

                           Mary Hethey               20,000 shares
                           Carsten Mide              10,000 shares
                           Stacey Bligh               5,000 shares

         This stock is  restricted  since it was issued in  compliance  with the
exemption  from  registration  provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933,  as amended.  After this stock has been held for one year,  the holders of
these shares of the  Registrant  could sell a  percentage  of their shares every
three months based on 1% of the outstanding stock in the Registrant.  Therefore,
this stock can be sold after the  expiration of one year in compliance  with the
provisions of Rule 144. There are "stop  transfer"  instructions  placed against
this stock and a legend is imprinted on each stock certificate.

Shares issued to Other Shareholders

         On or about March 31, 1999, the Registrant  issued the following shares
to individuals  listed for the consideration of $0.01 per share. All shares were
paid for in cash. These shares were issued in accordance with the exemption from
registration provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended and an appropriate  Form D was filed in connection  with the issuance
of these shares.

(i)      These shares were issued  pursuant to the exemption  from  registration
         under Section 4(2) of the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended.  After
         this stock has been held for one year,  the holders of these  shares of
         the  Registrant  could sell a  percentage  of their  shares every three
         months  based  on  1% of  the  outstanding  stock  in  the  Registrant.
         Therefore,  this stock can be sold after the  expiration of one year in
         compliance  with the provisions of Rule 144. There are "stop  transfer"
         instructions  placed  against  this stock and a legend is  imprinted on
         each stock certificate.

         Certain parties interested in the Registrant's success have contributed
and continue to contribute time,  office space,  telephone,  and other expenses,
without  compensation or reimbursement.  The Registrant has given recognition to
this  contribution  by including in expenses and crediting  capital  surplus the
following amounts:

                      Management fees                   $  1,500
                      Rent                                   900
                      Telephone                              300
                                                        --------
                                                        $  2,700
                                                        ========


         The directors of the Registrant are directors,  officers,  stockholders
and  employees of other  companies.  Therefore,  conflicts of interest may arise
between  their  duties as  directors  of the  Registrant  and as  directors  and
officers of other  companies.  The  Registrant  has formulated no policy for the
resolution of such conflict.

         The President of the  Registrant  has advanced  money to the Registrant
for the following purposes:

                  Payment of original incorporation costs   $   255
                  Amendment to authorized capital (i)           264
                  General working capital                     5,956
                                                            --------
                                                            $ 6,475
                                                            ========

         (i)      The authorized  share capital was originally  established upon
                  incorporation  at  1,500  common  shares  with a par  value of
                  $0.001.  This was amended to  25,000,000  common shares with a
                  par value of $0.001

         The above noted advance is on a demand basis and bears no interest. Had
an interest  rate of 10% been used the amount of interest due and payable  would
have been $53.

                                       25

<PAGE>
         The two directors are prepared to advance other money to the Registrant
for an exploration  program on the Coronado  claim.  Such  commitment  would not
exceed  $50,000 since any  exploration  program  initially  would not incur this
cost.  If the  Registrant  is unable to raise further money from the issuance of
its capital stock or institutional  investors and the directors are unwilling to
advance  further  funds  subsequent  to the above  noted  advancement,  then the
Registrant  will not be able to operate as a going  concern  and might  cease to
exist.

         The  Registrant  has not entered into any  transactions  with a related
party and does not intend to do so in the immediate  future. It is the intention
of the  Registrant  to  deal  with  third  parties  in all its  acquisitions  of
properties.

REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS

         Prior to filing this Form 10-SB,  the  Registrant has not been required
to deliver  annual  reports.  To the extent that the  Registrant  is required to
deliver  annual  reports to security  holders  through its status of a reporting
company,  the Registrant  shall deliver annual reports.  Also, to the extent the
Registrant is required to deliver  annual reports by the rules or regulations of
any exchange upon which the Registrant's shares are traded, the Registrant shall
deliver  annual  reports.  If the  Registrant is not required to deliver  annual
reports,  the Registrant  will not go to the expense of producing and delivering
such reports. If the Registrant is required to deliver annual reports, they will
contain audited financial statements as required.

         Prior to the filing of this Form 10-SB,  the  Registrant  has not filed
reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Once the Registrant becomes
a reporting company,  management anticipates that Forms 3, 4, 5, 10K-SB, 10Q-SB,
8-K and Schedules 13D along with the appropriate  proxy material will have to be
filed  as they  come  due.  If the  Registrant  issues  additional  shares,  the
Registrant may file additional registration statements for those shares.

         The public may read and copy any material of the Registrant  files with
the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Commission's Public Reference Room
at 450 Fifth  Street,  N.W.,  Washington,  D.C.  20549.  The  public  may obtain
information  on the  operation  of the  Public  Reference  Room by  calling  the
Commission at  1-800-SEC-0330.  The  Commission  maintains an Internet site that
contains  reports,  proxy and  information  statements,  and  other  information
regarding the issuers that file electronically with the Commission. The Internet
address of the Commission's site is (http://www.sec.gov).

YEAR 2000 COMPUTER PROBLEMS

         The  Registrant is engaged in and  dependent on computer  technology in
its business operations.  Many existing computer programs use only two digits to
identify a year in the date field; i.e., "98" instead of "1998".  These programs
were  designed  and  developed  without  considering  the impact of the upcoming
change in the century,  i.e., Year 2000. The Registrant  uses computer  software
programs and systems  that are  essential  to its  business  operations.  If not
corrected,  many computer applications could fail or create erroneous results by
or at the Year 2000. The Registrant has:

         (i)   diagnosed  and repaired the existing and known Year 2000 problems
               in its computer software and systems;

         (ii)  reviewed the possible  contingent  liabilities the Registrant may
               have to third parties as a result of non-compliant systems; and

                                       26

<PAGE>
         (iii) examined the extent the Registrant depends on third parties whose
               systems may not be Year 2000 compliant.

         However,  there may be untold  numbers of unforeseen  circumstances  or
unknown  factors  which the  Registrant  has not yet  identified,  determined or
anticipated  regarding the Year 2000 computer problems,  and such problems could
have a material  adverse  affect on the  Registrant's  business  operations  and
financial condition. Consequently, the Registrant can give no assurance that the
Year 2000 compliance can be fully achieved without costs and uncertainties  that
may seriously and substantially adversely affect the Registrant's operations and
financial results.

     In  summary,  the  problem is a  massive,  pervasive,  complex,  world-wide
phenomena that could,  in a worst-case  scenario,  totally shut down and destroy
the Registrant's business operations.

ITEM 8.           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

         The Registrant's  articles of incorporation  currently provide that the
Registrant is authorized to issue  25,000,000  shares of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share. As at April 30, 1999, 250,000 shares were outstanding.

COMMON STOCK

         Each holder of record of the  Registrant's  common stock is entitled to
one vote per share in the election of the  Registrant's  directors and all other
matters  submitted to the Registrant's  stockholders for a vote.  Holders of the
Registrant's  common stock are also  entitled to share  ratably in all dividends
when,  as, and if declared by the  Registrant's  Board of  Directors  from funds
legally  available  therefore,  and to share ratably in all assets available for
distribution to the Registrant's  stockholders  upon liquidation or dissolution,
subject  in  both  cases  to  any  preference  that  may  be  applicable  to any
outstanding  preferred stock. There are no preemptive rights to subscribe to any
of the  Registrant's  securities,  and no  conversion  rights  or  sinking  fund
provisions applicable to the common stock.

         Neither  the  Registrant's  articles  of  incorporation  nor its bylaws
provide  for  cumulative  voting.  Accordingly,  persons  who own or  control  a
majority of the shares outstanding may elect all of the Board of Directors,  and
persons owning less than a majority could be foreclosed from electing any.

OPTIONS OUTSTANDING

         There are no outstanding  options.  It is the intention of the Board of
Directors to grant stock options to directors,  officers and future employees at
some time in the future.  At the present time no consideration has been given to
the granting of stock options.

                                       27

                                     PART 11

ITEM 1.           MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT'S
                  COMMON EQUITY AND OTHER STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

MARKET INFORMATION

         The Registrant's  stock is not presently traded or listed on any public
market. Upon effectiveness of the Registrant's  registration statement under the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, it is  anticipated  one or more broker dealers
may make a market in its securities over the counter, with quotations carried on
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.'s "OTC Bulletin Board".

         There is no  established  market  price  for the  shares.  There are no
common  shares  subject  to  outstanding   options  or  warrants  or  securities
convertible  into common equity of the Registrant.  The number of shares subject
to Rule 144 is 50,000. Each share certificate has the appropriate legend affixed
thereto. There are no shares being offered to the public and no shares have been
offered pursuant to an employee benefit plan or dividend reinvestment plan.

HOLDERS

         The  approximate  number of record holders of the  Registrant's  common
stock as at April 30, 1999 is 36 of which three are either directors or officers
of the Registrant.

DIVIDENDS

         The  Registrant  has never paid cash  dividends on its common stock and
does not intend to do so in the  foreseeable  future.  The Registrant  currently
intends to retain any earnings for the operation and expansion of its business.

TRANSFER AGENT

         The  Registrant's  transfer agent is Nevada Agency & Trust Co., 50 West
Liberty Street, Suite 880, Reno, Nevada, 89501.

ITEM 2.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are no legal proceedings to which the Registrant is a party or to
which its property is subject, nor to the best of management's knowledge are any
material legal proceedings contemplated.

ITEM 3.           DISAGREEMENT WITH ACCOUNTANTS AND
                  FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

         From  inception  to date,  the  Registrant's  principal  accountant  is
Andersen Andersen & Strong,  L.C. of Salt Lake City, Utah. The firm's report for
the period from inception to April 30, 1999 did not contain any adverse  opinion
or  disclaimer,  nor were there any  disagreements  between  management  and the
Registrant's accountants.

ITEM 4.           RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

         From inception through to April 30, 1999, the Registrant has issued and
sold the following unregistered shares of its common stock (the aggregated value
of all such offerings did not exceed US$1,000,000):

                                       28
<PAGE>
(i)      Subscription  for 35,000  shares by the  Directors  and Officers of the
         Company

         On March 31,1999 the Registrant  issued to its President,  Mary Hethey,
20,000 common shares, to its other Director,  Carsten Mide, 10,000 common shares
and to its Secretary Treasurer , Stacey Bligh, 5,000 common shares, all for cash
consideration  at a price of $0.01 per share.  This stock is restricted since it
was issued in  compliance  with the  exemption  from  registration  provided  by
Section 4(2) of the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended.  After this stock has
been held for one year,  the Directors  could sell within a three month period a
percentage  of  their  shares  based  on 1% of  the  outstanding  stock  in  the
Registrant.  Therefore,  this stock can be sold after the expiration of one year
in  compliance  with the  provisions  of Rule 144.  There  are  "stop  transfer"
instructions  placed against this certificate and a legend has been imprinted on
the stock certificate itself.

(ii)     Subscription for 215,000 shares

         On  March  31,  1999,  the  Registrant   accepted   subscriptions  from
thirty-three  investors  in the amount of 215,000  shares at a price of $0.01per
share.  In all cases the  consideration  was cash.  These  shares were issued in
accordance  with  the  exemption  from  registration  provided  by  Rule  504 of
Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and an appropriate Form
D was filed in connection with the issuance of these shares.  Out of the 215,000
shares  subscribed  for,  there were 15,000 shares which were  restricted due to
being purchased by individuals  directly  related to one or more of the officers
and directors.  The balance of 200,000 shares subscribed for and paid are shares
which can be traded without restrictions.  All the shareholders live outside the
United States and none are US citizens.

ITEM 5.           INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         The Articles of Incorporation  contain  provisions which, in substance,
eliminate  the personal  liability of the Board of Directors and officers of the
Registrant and its  shareholders  from monetary  damages for breach of fiduciary
duties as directors to the extent  permitted by Delaware law. By virtue of these
provisions,  and under current  Delaware law, a director of the Registrant  will
not be  personally  liable for monetary  damages for breach of  fiduciary  duty,
except liability for:

         a. breach  of  his  duties  of  loyalty  to  the  Registrant  or to its
            shareholders;

         b. acts or  omissions  not in good  faith or that  involve  intentional
            misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

         c. dividends or stock repurchase or redemptions that are unlawful under
            Delaware law; and

         d. any transactions  from which he or she receives an improper personal
            benefit.

         These provisions pertain only to breaches of duty by individuals solely
in the capacity as directors,  and not in any other corporate capacity,  such as
an officer,  and limit  liability  only for breaches of  fiduciary  duties under
Delaware law and not for  violations  of other laws (such as Federal  securities
laws). As a result of these  indemnifications  provisions,  shareholders  may be
unable to recover monetary  damages against  directors for actions taken by them
that constitute negligence or gross negligence or that are in violation of their
duties,  although it maybe  possible  to obtain  injunctive  or other  equitable
relief with respect to such actions.

         The inclusion of these  indemnification  provisions in the Registrant's
By-laws may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivation  litigation
against  directors,  and may discourage or deter


                                       29
<PAGE>
shareholders or management from bringing  lawsuit action,  if successful,  might
otherwise benefit the Registrant or its shareholders.

         The  Registrant  has entered into separate  indemnification  agreements
with its  directors  and  officers  containing  provisions  that provide for the
maximum indemnification allowed to directors and officers under Delaware law and
the  Registrant,  among other  obligations,  to  indemnify  such  directors  and
officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status as
directors and officers,  other than liabilities  arising from willful misconduct
of a culpable  nature,  provided  that such persons acted in good faith and in a
manner  that he or she  reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interest  of the  Registrant  and, in the case of  criminal  proceeding,  had no
reasonable  cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.  In addition,
the  indemnification  agreement  provides  generally that the  Registrant  will,
subject to certain  exceptions,  advance the  expenses  incurred by director and
officers  as a result of any  proceedings  against  them as to which they may be
entitled to  indemnifications.  The Registrant  believes these  arrangements are
necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act 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 such act, and is
therefore unenforceable.

Board of Directors
Coronado Explorations Ltd.
Vancouver B. C. Canada

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Coronado  Explorations Ltd. (a
development  stage  company) at April 30, 1999 and the statement of  operations,
stockholders'  equity, and cash flows for the period from February 2, 1999 (date
of  inception)  to  April  30,  1999.   These   financial   statements  are  the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting  principles used and financial statement  presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the financial position of Coronado  Explorations Ltd. at
April 30, 1999 and the results of operations, and cash flows for the period from
February  2, 1999  (date of  inception)  to April 30,  1999 in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  assuming that the
Company  will  continue as a going  concern.  The Company is in the  development
stage and will need additional  working capital for its planned activity,  which
raises  substantial  doubt about its  ability to  continue  as a going  concern.
Management's  plans in regard to these  matters are  described in Note 5 . These
financial  statements do not include any adjustments  that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

                           CORONADO EXPLORATIONS LTD.
                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
                          NOTES TO FINANCLAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February
2, 1999 with  authorized  common  stock of 1,500 shares with no par value and on
April 12, 1999 the  authorized  common stock was increased to 25,000,000  shares
with a par value of $0.001.

The Company was organized for the purpose of acquiring  and  developing  mineral
properties.

The Company is in the development stage.

Since its  inception  the Company  has  completed a  Regulation  D offerings  of
250,000 shares of its capital stock for cash.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICILES

Accounting Methods

The  Company  recognizes  income and  expenses  based on the  accrual  method of
accounting.

Dividend Policy

The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.

Income Taxes

The Company has not elected a fiscal  year and has not  completed  an  operating
period and therefore has not filed an income tax return.

Earning (Loss) Per Share

Earnings  (loss) per share  amounts are computed  based on the weighted  average
number of shares actually outstanding.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid  instruments  purchased with a maturity,
at the time of purchase, of less than three months, to be cash equivalents.

                           CORONADO EXPLORATIONS LTD.
                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Foreign Currency Translation

The  transactions  of the  Company  completed  in  Canadian  dollars  have  been
translated to US dollars.  Assets and liabilities are translated at the year end
exchange  rates and the income and  expenses  at the  average  rates of exchange
prevailing during the period reported on.

Amortization of Capitalized Mineral Lease Costs

The Company will use the successful  efforts method to amortize the  capitalized
costs of any mineral  leases it acquires,  which provides for  capitalizing  the
purchase  price of the  project and the  additional  costs  directly  related to
proving  the  properties,  and  amortizing  these  amounts  over the life of the
mineral  deposit.  All other  costs will be expensed  as  incurred.  Unamortized
capitalized costs will be expensed if the property is proven to be of no value.

Environmental Requirements

At the report date  environmental  requirements  related to the  mineral  claims
acquired  (note 3) are  unknown  and  therefore  an  estimate of any future cost
cannot be made.

Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial  instruments,  including cash, mineral leases,
and accounts  payable,  are considered by management to be their  estimated fair
values.  These  values are not  necessarily  indicative  of the amounts that the
Company could realize in a current market exchange.

Estimates and Assumptions

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing  financial  statements in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles.  Those estimates and
assumptions  affect the  reported  amounts of the  assets and  liabilities,  the
disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities,  and the reported revenues and
expenses.  Actual  results  could vary from the  estimates  that were assumed in
preparing these financial statements.

3. ACQUISITION OF MINERAL CLAIMS

The  Company  a mineral  claims  known as the  Coronado  claims  located  in the
Bralorne  Mining area of British  Columbia  with an expiry date of February  26,
2000. The cost of staking and filing have been expensed.

                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
                    NOTES TO FINANCLAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

8 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related parties have acquired 61% of the common stock issued for cash.

The  officers  and  directors  of the  Company are  involved  in other  business
activities and they may, in the future,  become involved in additional  business
ventures  which  also  may  require  their  attention.  If a  specific  business
opportunity  becomes  available,  such  persons may face a conflict in selecting
between  the  Company  and their  other  business  interests.  The  Company  has
formulated no policy for the resolution of such conflicts.

9 GOING CONCERN

The Company will need additional working capital to be successful in its efforts
to develop the mineral claims acquired and therefore continuation of the Company
as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining  additional  working  capital and
the  management of the Company has developed a strategy,  which it believes will
accomplish  this objective  through  additional  equity  funding,  and long term
financing, which will enable the Company to operate in the future.

Management  recognizes  that, if it is unable to raise additional  capital,  the
Company cannot be successful in its efforts.

<PAGE>
                                   ARTICLE IX

         The  following  indemnification   provisions  shall  be  deemed  to  be
contractual  in nature and not subject to  retroactive  removal or  reduction by
amendment:

         A. The corporation  shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or
is  threatened  to be made a party  to any  threatened,  pending,  or  completed
action,  suit  or  proceeding,  whether  civil,  criminal,   administrative,  or
investigative  (other than an action by or in the right of the  corporation)  by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer, employee, or agent of
the  corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the  corporation  as a
director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture,  trust, or other  enterprise,  against expenses  (including  attorneys'
fees), judgments,  fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action,  suit, or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation,  and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding,  had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment,  order,  settlement,
conviction, or upon a plea of no contest or its equivalent shall not, of itself,
create a  presumption  that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner
which he  reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to the best  interests of
the  corporation,  and with respect to any criminal  action or  proceeding,  had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

       B. The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer, employee, or agent of
the  corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the  corporation  as a
director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by him in  connection  with the  defense or
settlement  of such  action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably  believed  to be in or not  opposed  to  the  best  interests  of the
corporation and except that no  indemnification  shall be made in respect of any
claim,  issue,  or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable  for  negligence  or  misconduct  in the  performance  of his duty to the
corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or
suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication
of liability but in view of all the  circumstances  of the case,  such person is
fairly and  reasonably  entitled to indemnity for such expenses  which the court
shall deem proper.

         C. To the extent that a director,  officer,  employee,  or agent of the
corporation  has been  successful  on the merits or  otherwise in defense of any
action,  suit, or proceeding referred to in subparagraphs A and B, or in defense
of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses
(including   attorneys'  fees)  actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by  him  in
connection therewith.

         D. Any indemnification under subparagraphs A and B (unless ordered by a
court) shall be made by the corporation  only as authorized in the specific case
upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee, or
agent is proper in the circumstances  because he has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in subparagraphs A and B. Such determination  shall be made
(1) by the Board of  Directors  by a  majority  vote of a quorum  consisting  of
directors who were not parties to such action,  suit, or  proceeding,  or (2) if
such  a

                                       45
<PAGE>

quorum is not  obtainable,  or,  even if  obtainable  a quorum of  disinterested
directors so directs,  by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3)
by the stockholders.

         E. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action,  suit, or
proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of
such action,  suit, or proceeding as authorized by the Board of Directors in the
specific  case upon receipt of an  undertaking  by or on behalf of the director,
officer,  employee,  or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be
determined  that  he is  entitled  to  be  indemnified  by  the  corporation  as
authorized herein.

                                    ARTICLE X

         No  director  of the  corporation  shall be  personally  liable  to the
corporation  or its  shareholders  for monetary  damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director;  provided,  that the foregoing clause shall not apply to any
liability of a director for any action for which the General  Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware  proscribes  this  limitation  and then only to the extent
that this limitation is specifically proscribed.

                                   ARTICLE XI

         In furtherance,  and not in limitation,  of the powers conferred by the
laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized:

         A. To make,  alter,  amend,  and repeal the By-Laws of the corporation,
subject  to the power of the  holders  of stock  having  voting  power to alter,
amend, or repeal the By-Laws made by the Board of Directors.

         B. To determine and fix the value of any property to be acquired by the
corporation  and  to  issue  and  pay  in  exchange  therefore,   stock  of  the
corporation;  and the judgment of the directors in determining  such value shall
be conclusive.

         C. To set  apart  out of any  funds of the  corporation  available  for
dividends,  a reserve or reserves  for working  capital or for any other  lawful
purposes,  and also to abolish  any such  reserve in the same manner in which it
was created.

         D. To determine  from time to time  whether and to what extent,  and at
what time and places, and under what conditions and regulations the accounts and
books of the corporation,  or any of the books,  shall be open for inspection by
the shareholders and no shareholder  shall have any right to inspect any account
or book or document of the  corporation  except as  conferred by the laws of the
State of Delaware,  unless and until  authorized  to do so by  resolution of the
Board of Directors or of the shareholders.

         E. The Board of Directors may, by resolution,  provide for the issuance
of stock certificates to replace lost or destroyed certificates.

                                   ARTICLE XII

         If the By-Laws so provide,  the shareholders and the Board of Directors
of the  corporation  shall  have the power to hold  their  meetings,  to have an
office or  offices,  and to keep the books of the  corporation,  subject  to the
provisions  of the laws of the State of Delaware,  outside of said state at such
place  or  places  as may be  designated  from  time  to time  by the  Board  of
Directors.

                                       46

         The  corporation  may, in its By-Laws,  confer powers upon the Board of
Directors in addition to those granted by these Articles of  Incorporation,  and
in addition to the powers and  authority  expressly  conferred  upon them by the
laws of the State of Delaware.

         Election  of  directors  need not be by ballot  unless  the  By-Laws so
provide.

         Directors shall be entitled to reasonable fees for their  attendance at
meetings of the Board of Directors.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

         In case the  corporation  enters into  contracts or transacts  business
with one or more of its directors,  or with any firm of which one or more of its
directors are members, or with any other corporation or association of which one
or  more  of its  directors  are  shareholders,  directors,  or  officers,  such
contracts or transactions shall not be invalidated or in any way affected by the
fact that such director or directors have or may have an interest  therein which
is or might be adverse to the interest of this  corporation,  provided that such
contracts or transactions are in the usual course of business.

         In the absence of fraud, no contract or other transaction  between this
corporation  and any other  corporation or any individual or firm,  shall in any
way be affected or  invalidated  by the fact that any of the  directors  of this
corporation  is interested in such contract or  transaction,  provided that such
interest shall be fully  disclosed or otherwise  known to the Board of Directors
in the  meeting of such Board at which time such  contract  or  transaction  was
authorized or confirmed, and provided,  however, that any such directors of this
corporation who are so interested may be counted in determining the existence of
a quorum at any  meeting of the Board of  Directors  of this  corporation  which
shall authorize or confirm such contract or  transaction,  and any such director
may vote thereon to authorize  any such  contract or  transaction,  and any such
director may vote thereon to authorize any such contract or transaction with the
like force and effect as if he were not such  director  or officer of such other
corporation or not so interested.

                                   ARTICLE X1V

        If the  corporation  is not a  reporting  company,  no  shares  shall be
transferred with the previous consent of the Directors expressed by a resolution
of the Board and the  Directors  shall not be  required  to give any  reason for
refusing to consent to any such proposed  transfer.  If the corporation is not a
reporting company, no shares or debt obligations issued by the corporation shall
be offered for sale to the public.

                                   ARTICLE XV

         The corporation  reserves the right to amend,  alter,  change or repeal
any provision  contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
in the  manner now or  hereafter  prescribed  by law,  and all rights and powers
conferred herein upon  shareholders,  directors and officers are subject to this
reserved power.

         IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  I, the  undersigned,  pursuant to the laws of the

                                    ARTICLE I

                                  STOCKHOLDERS

         1. CERTIFICATES  REPRESENTING STOCK. Certificates representing stock in
the  corporation  shall be signed by, or in the name of, the  corporation by the
Chairperson  or  Vice-Chairperson  of the Board of Directors,  if any, or by the
President or a Vice-President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant  Treasurer or
the  Secretary or an  Assistant  Secretary  of the  corporation.  Any or all the
signatures  on any such  certificate  may be a  facsimile.  In case any officer,
transfer  agent,  or registrar who has signed or whose  facsimile  signature has
been placed upon a certificate  shall have ceased to be such  officer,  transfer
agent, or registrar before such  certificate is issued,  it may be issued by the
corporation  with the same effect as if such person were such officer,  transfer
agent, or registrar at the date of issue.

         Whenever the  corporation  shall be  authorized  to issue more than one
class of stock or more than one series of any class of stock,  and  whenever the
corporation  shall  issue any  shares of its stock as  partly  paid  stock,  the
certificates  representing  shares  of any such  class or  series or of any such
partly  paid stock  shall set forth  thereon the  statements  prescribed  by the
General  Corporation  Law. Any  restrictions  on the transfer or registration of
transfer  of any  shares  of  stock  of any  class  or  series  shall  be  noted
conspicuously on the certificate representing such shares.

                The  corporation  may  issue  a  new  certificate  of  stock  or
uncertificated  shares  in place of any  certificate  theretofore  issued by it,
alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed,  and the Board of Directors may
require the owner of the lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate, or such owner's
legal representative, to give the corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the
corporation  against  any claim  that may be made  against  it on account of the
alleged loss,  theft or destruction  of any such  certificate or the issuance of
any such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

         2.  UNCERTIFICATED  SHARES.  Subject to any  conditions  imposed by the
General  Corporation  Law, the Board of Directors of the corporation may provide
by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of
the stock of the corporation shall be uncertificated shares. Within a reasonable
time after the issuance or transfer of any

                                       48
<PAGE>
uncertificated  shares,  the  corporation  shall  send to the  registered  owner
thereof any written notice prescribed by the General Corporation Law.

                 3. FRACTIONAL SHARE  INTERESTS.  The corporation may, but shall
not be required to,  issue  fractions of a share.  If the  corporation  does not
issue  fractions  of a share,  it  shall  (1)  arrange  for the  disposition  of
fractional  interests by those entitled thereto,  (2) pay in cash the fair value
of  fractions  of a share as of the time when those  entitled  to  receive  such
fractions  are  determined,  or (3) issue scrip or warrants in  registered  form
(either   represented  by  a  certificate  or  uncertificated)  or  bearer  form
(represented by a certificate)  which shall entitle the holder to receive a full
share upon the surrender of such scrip or warrants  aggregating a full share.  A
certificate for a fractional share or an uncertificated  fractional share shall,
but scrip or warrants shall not unless otherwise  provided therein,  entitle the
holder  to  exercise  voting  rights,  to  receive  dividends  thereon,  and  to
participate in any of the assets of the corporation in the event of liquidation.
The Board of Directors  may cause scrip or warrants to be issued  subject to the
conditions  that  they  shall  become  void if not  exchanged  for  certificates
representing  the full shares or  uncertificated  full shares before a specified
date, or subject to the  conditions  that the shares for which scrip or warrants
are  exchangeable  may be  sold by the  corporation  and  the  proceeds  thereof
distributed  to the  holders  of scrip or  warrants,  or  subject  to any  other
conditions which the Board of Directors may impose.

                 4. STOCK TRANSFERS. Upon compliance with provisions restricting
the transfer or registration  of transfer of shares of stock, if any,  transfers
or registration of transfers of shares of stock of the corporation shall be made
only on the stock ledger of the corporation by the registered holder thereof, or
by the registered  holder's attorney  thereunto  authorized by power of attorney
duly executed and filed with the Secretary of the corporation or with a transfer
agent  or a  registrar,  if any,  and,  in the  case of  shares  represented  by
certificates, on surrender of the certificate or certificates for such shares of
stock properly endorsed and the payment of all taxes due thereon.

                5. RECORD DATE FOR  STOCKHOLDERS.  In order that the corporation
may determine the  stockholders  entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting
of  stockholders or any  adjournment  thereof,  the Board of Directors may fix a
record  date,  which  record  date  shall not  precede  the date upon  which the
resolution  fixing the record  date is  adopted by the Board of  Directors,  and
which record date shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the
date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors,  the
record date for determining  stockholders  entitled to notice of or to vote at a
meeting  of  stockholders  shall  be at the  close of  business  on the day next
preceding  the day on which  notice is given,  or, if notice is  waived,  at the
close of  business  on the day next  preceding  the day on which the  meeting is
held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote
at a meeting of  stockholders  shall apply to any  adjournment  of the  meeting;
provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the
adjourned meeting.  In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting,  the Board
of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date
upon which the  resolution  fixing  the  record  date is adopted by the Board of
Directors, and

                                       49
<PAGE>
which  date  shall  not be more  than ten days  after  the date  upon  which the
resolution  fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of  Directors.  If no
record  date has been  fixed by the  Board of  Directors,  the  record  date for
determining the stockholders  entitled to consent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by
the General  Corporation  Law, shall be the first date on which a signed written
consent  setting  forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to
the  corporation by delivery to its registered  office in the State of Delaware,
its  principal  place of  business,  or an officer  or agent of the  corporation
having custody of the book in which  proceedings of meetings of stockholders are
recorded.  Delivery made to the corporation's registered office shall be by hand
or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.  If no record date
has been  fixed by the  Board of  Directors  and  prior  action  by the Board of
Directors  is  required  by the  General  Corporation  Law,  the record date for
determining  stockholders  entitled  to consent to  corporate  action in writing
without a  meeting  shall be at the  close of  business  on the day on which the
Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. In order that
the  corporation may determine the  stockholders  entitled to receive payment of
any  dividend  or  other   distribution  or  allotment  of  any  rights  or  the
stockholders  entitled  to  exercise  any  rights  in  respect  of  any  change,
conversion, or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action,
the Board of  Directors  may fix a record  date,  which  record  date  shall not
precede  the date upon which the  resolution  fixing the record date is adopted,
and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action. If
no record date is fixed,  the record date for determining  stockholders  for any
such purpose  shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of
Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

         6. MEANING OF CERTAIN TERMS.  As used herein in respect of the right to
notice of a meeting of  stockholders  or a waiver  thereof or to  participate or
vote  thereat or to  consent or dissent in writing in lieu of a meeting,  as the
case may be,  the term  "share"  or  "shares"  or "share of stock" or "shares of
stock" or  "stockholder"  or  "stockholders"  refers to an outstanding  share or
shares of stock and to a holder or  holders of record of  outstanding  shares of
stock when the  corporation  is  authorized to issue only one class of shares of
stock,  and said reference is also intended to include any outstanding  share or
shares of stock and any  holder or holders  of record of  outstanding  shares of
stock of any class  upon  which or upon whom the  certificate  of  incorporation
confers  such rights  where there are two or more classes or series of shares of
stock or upon which or upon whom the General Corporation Law confers such rights
notwithstanding  that the certificate of incorporation may provide for more than
one class or series of  shares  of stock,  one or more of which are  limited  or
denied such rights thereunder;  provided, however, that no such right shall vest
in the event of an increase or a decrease in the authorized  number of shares of
stock of any class or series which is otherwise  denied  voting rights under the
provisions of the certificate of  incorporation,  except as any provision of law
may otherwise require.

         7. STOCKHOLDER MEETINGS.

- - TIME,.  The annual  meeting  shall be held on the date and at the time  fixed,
from time to time, by the  directors,  provided,  that the first annual  meeting
shall be held on a date

                                       50
<PAGE>
within  thirteen  months after the  organization  of the  corporation,  and each
successive  annual meeting shall be held on a date within  thirteen months after
the date of the preceding annual meeting. A special meeting shall be held on the
date and at the time fixed by the directors.

    -    PLACE.  Annual  meetings  and  special  meetings  shall be held at such
         place,  within or without the State of Delaware,  as the directors may,
         from time to time,  fix.  Whenever the directors shall fail to fix such
         place,  the  meeting  shall  be held at the  registered  office  of the
         corporation in the State of Delaware.

    -    CALL.  Annual  meetings  and  special  meetings  may be  called  by the
         directors  or by any officer  instructed  by the  directors to call the
         meeting.

- - NOTICE OR WAIVER OF NOTICE.  Written  notice of all  meetings  shall be given,
stating the place,  date,  and hour of the meeting and stating the place  within
the city or other municipality or community at which the list of stockholders of
the  corporation  may be examined.  The notice of an annual  meeting shall state
that the meeting is called for the election of directors and for the transaction
of other business which may properly come before the meeting,  and shall (if any
other  action  which could be taken at a special  meeting is to be taken at such
annual  meeting) state the purpose or purposes.  The notice of a special meeting
shall in all  instances  state the purpose or purposes  for which the meeting is
called. The notice of any meeting shall also include,  or be accompanied by, any
additional  statements,  information,  or  documents  prescribed  by the General
Corporation Law. Except as otherwise provided by the General  Corporation Law, a
copy of the notice of any meeting  shall be given,  personally  or by mail,  not
less than ten days nor more than  sixty  days  before  the date of the  meeting,
unless the lapse of the  prescribed  period of time shall have been waived,  and
directed to each  stockholder  at such  stockholder's  record address or at such
other address which such stockholder may have furnished by request in writing to
the  Secretary  of the  corporation.  Notice by mail shall be deemed to be given
when deposited,  with postage thereon  prepaid,  in the United States Mail. If a
meeting is adjourned to another time, not more than thirty days hence, and/or to
another place, and if an announcement of the adjourned time and/or place is made
at the  meeting,  it shall not be  necessary  to give  notice  of the  adjourned
meeting unless the directors,  after adjournment,  fix a new record date for the
adjourned  meeting.  Notice need not be given to any  stockholder  who submits a
written  waiver of notice  signed by such  stockholder  before or after the time
stated therein.  Attendance of a stockholder at a meeting of stockholders  shall
constitute  a waiver of  notice of such  meeting,  except  when the  stockholder
attends the meeting for the express  purpose of  objecting,  at the beginning of
the  meeting,  to the  transaction  of any  business  because the meeting is not
lawfully  called or convened.  Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the
purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified
in any written waiver of notice.

    -    STOCKHOLDER LIST. The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the
         corporation  shall  prepare and make,  at least ten days  before  every
         meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders,  arranged
         in alphabetical  order, and showing the address of each stockholder and
         the number of shares registered in the name of each  stockholder.  Such
         list shall

                                       51
<PAGE>

be open to the  examination of any  stockholder,  for any purpose germane to the
meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior
to the  meeting,  either at a place  within  the city or other  municipality  or
community where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the
notice of the meeting, or if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is
to be held.  The list shall also be  produced  and kept at the time and place of
the  meeting  during  the  whole  time  thereof,  and  may be  inspected  by any
stockholder  who is present.  The stock ledger shall be the only  evidence as to
who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required
by this  section or the books of the  corporation,  or to vote at any meeting of
stockholders.

         - CONDUCT OF MEETING.  Meetings of the  stockholders  shall be presided
over by one of the  following  officers in the order of seniority and if present
and acting - the Chairperson of the Board, if any, the  Vice-Chairperson  of the
Board, if any, the President, a Vice-President,  or, if none of the foregoing is
in  office  and  present  and  acting,  by a  chairperson  to be  chosen  by the
stockholders.  The Secretary of the corporation, or in such Secretary's absence,
an Assistant Secretary,  shall act as secretary of every meeting, but if neither
the  Secretary  nor an  Assistant  Secretary is present the  chairperson  of the
meeting shall appoint a secretary of the meeting.

         - PROXY REPRESENTATION.  Every stockholder may authorize another person
or  persons  to act for such  stockholder  by proxy  in all  matters  in which a
stockholder  is  entitled  to  participate,  whether  by  waiving  notice of any
meeting,  voting or participating at a meeting, or expressing consent or dissent
without a  meeting.  Every  proxy must be signed by the  stockholder  or by such
stockholder's  attorney-in-fact.  No proxy  shall be voted or acted  upon  after
three years from its date unless such proxy provides for a longer period. A duly
executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and, if,
and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support
an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable  regardless of whether the
interest  with  which it is  coupled is an  interest  in the stock  itself or an
interest in the corporation generally.

         - INSPECTORS.  The directors,  in advance of any meeting, may, but need
not,  appoint  one or more  inspectors  of election to act at the meeting or any
adjournment thereof If an inspector or inspectors are not appointed,  the person
presiding at the meeting may, but need not, appoint one or more  inspectors.  In
case any person who may be appointed as an inspector fails to appear or act, the
vacancy may be filled by  appointment  made by the  directors  in advance of the
meeting or at the meeting by the person presiding  thereat.  Each inspector,  if
any, before  entering upon the discharge of duties of inspector,  shall take and
sign an oath  faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting with
strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector's  ability.  The
inspectors,  if any, shall  determine the number of shares of stock  outstanding
and the voting power of each,  the shares of stock  represented  at the meeting,
the existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall receive
votes,  ballots,  or consents,  hear and determine all  challenges and questions
arising in  connection  with the right to vote,  count and  tabulate  all votes,
ballots,  or consents,  determine the result,  and do such acts as are proper to
conduct the election or vote with  fairness to all  stockholders.  On request of
the

                                       52
<PAGE>
person presiding at the meeting, the inspector or inspectors, if any, shall make
a report in writing of any  challenge,  question,  or matter  determined by such
inspector  or  inspectors  and execute a  certificate  of any fact found by such
inspector or  inspectors.  Except as may otherwise be required by subsection (e)
of Section 231 of the General  Corporation  Law, the  provisions of that Section
shall not apply to the corporation.

         - QUORUM.  The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock
shall  constitute a quorum at a meeting of  stockholders  for the transaction of
any  business.  The  stockholders  present may  adjourn the meeting  despite the
absence of a quorum.

                 - VOTING.  Each share of stock shall entitle the holder thereof
to one vote.  Directors  shall be  elected  by a  plurality  of the votes of the
shares  present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to
vote on the election of  directors.  Any other action shall be  authorized  by a
majority of the votes cast except where the General Corporation Law prescribes a
different  percentage of votes and/or a different  exercise of voting power, and
except as may be otherwise  prescribed by the  provisions of the  certificate of
incorporation and these Bylaws. In the election of directors,  and for any other
action, voting need not be by ballot.

                8. STOCKHOLDER ACTION WITHOUT MEETINGS.  Except as any provision
of the General Corporation Law may otherwise require, any action required by the
General  Corporation  Law to be  taken  at any  annual  or  special  meeting  of
stockholders,  or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting
of  stockholders,  may be taken  without a  meeting,  without  prior  notice and
without a vote,  if a consent  in  writing,  setting  forth the action so taken,
shall be signed by the  holders of  outstanding  stock  having not less than the
minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action
at a meeting at which all shares  entitled  to vote  thereon  were  present  and
voted.  Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by
less than unanimous  written  consent shall be given to those  stockholders  who
have not consented in writing.  Action taken pursuant to this paragraph shall be
subject to the provisions of Section 228 of the General Corporation Law.

                                   ARTICLE 11

                                    DIRECTORS

         1.  FUNCTIONS  AND   DEFINITION.   The  business  and  affairs  of  the
corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors
of the  corporation.  The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the
compensation of the members thereof.  The use of the phrase "whole board" herein
refers to the total  number of  directors  which the  corporation  would have if
there were no vacancies.

         2.  QUALIFICATIONS AND NUMBER. A director need not be a stockholder,  a
citizen  of the  United  States,  or a resident  of the State of  Delaware.  The
initial Board of Directors  shall consist of two persons.  Thereafter the number
of directors  constituting the whole board shall be at least one. Subject to the
foregoing limitation and except for the first Board of

                                       53
<PAGE>

Directors,  such  number  may be  fixed  from  time  to time  by  action  of the
stockholders  or of the  directors,  or, if the number is not fixed,  the number
shall be two. The number of directors may be increased or decreased by action of
the stockholders or of the directors.

         3. ELECTION AND TERM. The first Board of Directors,  unless the members
thereof  shall have been named in the  certificate  of  incorporation,  shall be
elected by the  incorporator  or  incorporators  and shall hold office until the
first annual meeting of stockholders  and until their successors are elected and
qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal. Any director may resign
at any time upon written notice to the  corporation.  Thereafter,  directors who
are elected at an annual meeting of stockholders,  and directors who are elected
in the interim to fill  vacancies  and newly created  directorships,  shall hold
office until the next annual meeting of stockholders  and until their successors
are elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal.  Except
as the General  Corporation  Law may otherwise  require,  in the interim between
annual meetings of stockholders  or of special  meetings of stockholders  called
for the  election of directors  and/or for the removal of one or more  directors
and  for  the  filling  of  any  vacancy  in  that  connection,   newly  created
directorships  and any vacancies in the Board of Directors,  including  unfilled
vacancies  resulting  from the removal of directors for cause or without  cause,
may be filled  by the vote of a  majority  of the  remaining  directors  then in
office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director.

         4. MEETINGS.

         TIME.  Meetings  shall be held at such  time as the  Board  shall  fix,
except  that the first  meeting of a newly  elected  Board shall be held as soon
after its election as the directors may conveniently assemble.

         PLACE. Meetings shall be held at such place within or without the State
of Delaware as shall be fixed by the Board.

         CALL. No call shall be required for regular meetings for which the time
and place have been fixed. Special meetings may be called by or at the direction
of the Chairperson of the Board, if any, the  Vice-Chairperson  of the Board, if
any, of the President, or of a majority of the directors in office.

         NOTICE OR ACTUAL OR  CONSTRUCTIVE  WAIVER.  No notice shall be required
for  regular  meetings  for which the time and place have been  fixed.  Written,
oral,  or any other  mode of  notice  of the time and  place  shall be given for
special meetings in sufficient time for the convenient assembly of the directors
thereat.  Notice  need  not be  given  to any  director  or to any  member  of a
committee of  directors  who submits a written  waiver of notice  signed by such
director or member  before or after the time stated  therein.  Attendance of any
such person at a meeting  shall  constitute a waiver of notice of such  meeting,
except when such person attends a meeting for the express  purpose of objecting,
at the beginning of the meeting,  to the transaction of any business because the
meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to

                                       54
<PAGE>
be  transacted  at, nor the purpose  of, any  regular or special  meeting of the
directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

         QUORUM AND ACTION.  A majority of the whole  Board shall  constitute  a
quorum except when a vacancy or vacancies  prevents such  majority,  whereupon a
majority of the directors in office shall  constitute a quorum,  provided,  that
such majority shall constitute at least one-third of the whole Board. A majority
of the  directors  present,  whether or not a quorum is  present,  may adjourn a
meeting to another  time and place.  Except as herein  otherwise  provided,  and
except as  otherwise  provided by the General  Corporation  Law, the vote of the
majority  of the  directors  present  at a meeting  at which a quorum is present
shall be the act of the Board.  The quorum and voting  provisions  herein stated
shall  not be  construed  as  conflicting  with any  provisions  of the  General
Corporation  Law and these Bylaws  which  govern a meeting of directors  held to
fill  vacancies  and  newly  created  directorships  in the  Board or  action of
disinterested directors.

               Any  member  or  members  of the  Board  of  Directors  or of any
committee designated by the Board, may participate in a meeting of the Board, or
any such  committee,  as the case may be, by means of  conference  telephone  or
similar communications  equipment by means of which all persons participating in
the meeting can hear each other.

         CHAIRPERSON OF THE MEETING. The Chairperson of the Board, if any and if
present  and   acting,   shall   preside  at  all   meetings.   Otherwise,   the
Vice-Chairperson  of  the  Board,  if any  and if  present  and  acting,  or the
President,  if present and acting,  or any other  director  chosen by the Board,
shall preside.

               5. REMOVAL OF  DIRECTORS.  Except as may otherwise be provided by
the General  Corporation  Law, any director or the entire Board of Directors may
be removed,  with or without  cause,  by the holders of a majority of the shares
then entitled to vote at an election of directors.

         6.  COMMITTEES.  The  Board  of  Directors  may  designate  one or more
committees,  each  committee  to consist of one or more of the  directors of the
corporation.  The Board may designate one or more directors as alternate members
of any  committee,  who may  replace  any absent or  disqualified  member at any
meeting of the committee.  In the absence or  disqualification  of any member of
any such committee or committees,  the member or members  thereof present at any
meeting and not disqualified from voting,  whether or not such member or members
constitute a quorum,  may  unanimously  appoint  another  member of the Board of
Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or  disqualified
member.  Any such  committee,  to the extent  provided in the  resolution of the
Board,  shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of
Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the corporation  with
the exception of any power or authority the delegation of which is prohibited by
Section 141 of the General  Corporation  Law, and may  authorize the seal of the
corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it.

                                       55
<PAGE>
         7. WRITTEN ACTION.  Any action required or permitted to be taken at any
meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee  thereof may be taken without
a meeting if all members of the Board or committee,  as the case may be, consent
thereto in writing,  and the  writing or writings  are filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board or committee.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                    OFFICERS

The officers of the  corporation  shall consist of a President,  a Secretary,  a
Treasurer,  and, if deemed  necessary,  expedient,  or desirable by the Board of
Directors,  a Chairperson  of the Board,  a  Vice-Chairperson  of the Board,  an
Executive  Vice-President,  one or  more  other  Vice-Presidents,  one  or  more
Assistant Secretaries, one or more Assistant Treasurers, and such other officers
with such titles as the resolution of the Board of Directors choosing them shall
designate. Except as may otherwise be provided in the resolution of the Board of
Directors  choosing  such  officer,  no officer  other than the  Chairperson  or
Vice-Chairperson of the Board, if any, need be a director. Any number of offices
may be held by the same person, as the directors may determine.

Unless otherwise provided in the resolution choosing such officer,  each officer
shall be chosen for a term which shall  continue  until the meeting of the Board
of Directors  following the next annual meeting of  stockholders  and until such
officer's successor shall have been chosen and qualified.

All  officers of the  corporation  shall have such  authority  and perform  such
duties in the management and operation of the corporation as shall be prescribed
in the  resolutions  of the Board of Directors  designating  and  choosing  such
officers  and  prescribing  their  authority  and  duties,  and shall  have such
additional  authority  and duties as are incident to their office  except to the
extent that such resolutions may be inconsistent therewith.  The Secretary or an
Assistant  Secretary of the  corporation  shall record all of the proceedings of
all meetings and actions in writing of stockholders,  directors,  and committees
of  directors,  and shall  exercise such  additional  authority and perform such
additional  duties as the Board  shall  assign to such  Secretary  or  Assistant
Secretary.  Any officer may be removed,  with or without cause,  by the Board of
Directors. Any vacancy in any office may be filled by the Board of Directors.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                 CORPORATE SEAL

The  corporate  seal  shall  be in such  form as the  Board of  Directors  shall
prescribe.

                                   FISCAL YEAR

               The fiscal year of the corporation  shall be fixed,  and shall be
subject to change, by the Board of Directors.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                               CONTROL OVER BYLAWS

         Subject to the provisions of the certificate of  incorporation  and the
provisions of the General  Corporation Law, the power to amend, alter, or repeal
these  Bylaws and to adopt new Bylaws may be exercised by the Board of Directors
or by the stockholders.

         I HEREBY  CERTIFY that the foregoing is a full,  true, and correct copy
