Item 9. Undertakings.
- ----------------------
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a) (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
Statement.
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10
(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933
Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the Registration
Statement (or the most recent cost-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement;
and
(iii)To include any additional or changed material
information with respect to the plan of distribution
not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information
in the Registration Statement; provided, however,
only to the extent required by the general rules and
regulations of the Commission.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) That for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act,
each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant
to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933
Act, as amended, may be permitted to directors, executive officers
and controlling persons of the Registrant as outlined above or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, executive officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, executive officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it
meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly
caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of Tustin, State of
California, on October 25, 1999.

Tustin, California 92780
Re: Opinion concerning the legality of the securities to be issued
pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by
Colormax Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
Board of Directors:
As special counsel for Colormax Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and in connection with the issuance of 250,000
shares of the Company's $0.001 par value common stock (the "Securities") to E.S.
Whang (the "Consultants") pursuant to a written Production Services Agreement,
copies of which are incorporated herein by reference (the "Plan"), I have been
asked to render an opinion as to the legality of these Securities, which are to
be covered by a Registration Statement to be filed by the Company on Form S-8 of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), and as to which this
opinion is to be filed as an exhibit.
As you are aware, no services to ne performed and billed to the company
which are in any way related to a "capital raising" transaction may be paid by
the issuance of Securities pursuant to the Plan. In this respect, I am relying
on the written representations of the plan participants, which representations
accompany the Plan.
In connection with rendering my opinion, which is set forth below, I
have reviewed and examined originals or copies of the following documents, to
- -wit:
1. Articles of Incorporation and all amendments thereto;
2. Bylaws;
3. 10-KSB Annual Report for the calendar year ended December 31, 1999,
filed with the Commission on or about August 26, 1999;
4. 10-QSB Quarterly Reports for the past twelve months;
5. A copy of the Plan;
6. The Unanimous Consent of the Board of Directors adopting the Plan,
designating the name of the Plan and the name, address and telephone number of
the Plan's agent; and
7. Correspondence with the two Consultants regarding the type of
services rendered and to be rendered, and Securities Act Release No. 33-7646,
dated February 26, 1999, and their respective responses to my letter to the
participants.

<PAGE>
I have also examined various other documents, books, records,
instruments and certificates of public officials, directors, executive officers
and agents of the Company, and have made such investigations as I have deemed
reasonable, necessary or prudent under the circumstances. Also, in rendering
this opinion, I have reviewed various statutes and judicial precedence as I have
deemed relevant or necessary.
Further, as special counsel for the Company, I have discussed the items
relied upon in rendering this opinion and the documents I have examined with one
or more directors and executive officers of the Company, and in all instances, I
have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural
persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the
conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to me as
certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such
copies. I have further assumed that (i) the recipients of these Securities under
the Plan will have paid the consideration required under the terms of the Plan
prior to the issuance of the Securities; (ii) that none of the services
performed by the recipients shall be related to "capital raising" transactions;
and (iii) the Securities will not constitute more than 10% of the total issued
and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.
The Registrant has also advised me in writing that it has provided the
individual participants in the Plan with a copy of the documents enumerated in
paragraphs 3 through 7, inclusive, above, and I am relying on that
representation in connection with this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, it is my opinion
that, subject to the limitations set forth in the Plan, the Securities to be
issued pursuant to the Plan will, upon their issuance and delivery to the
recipients thereof, after receipt of full payment therefor, be deemed duly and
validly authorized, legally issued and fully paid and non-assessable under the
Delaware General Corporation Law.
This opinion is expressly limited in scope to the Securities described
herein and which are to be expressly covered by the above referenced
Registration Statement and does not cover any subsequent issuances of any
securities to be made in the future pursuant to any other plans, if any,
pertaining to services performed in the future. Any such transactions are
required to be included in a new Registration Statement or a post-effective
amendment to the above referenced Registration Statement, which will be required
to include a revised or a new opinion concerning the legality of the Securities
to be issued.
Further, this opinion is limited to the corporate laws of the State of
Delaware and the securities laws, rules and regulations of the United States,
and I express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction.
I consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an
exhibit to the above referenced Registration Statement; however, this opinion is
not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other
purpose without my prior written consent.
This opinion is based upon my knowledge of the law and facts as of the
date hereof, and I assume no duty to communicate with you with respect to any
matter which may hereafter come to my attention.
Yours very sincerely,
/s/ Gerald M. Conder
