RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information in this prospectus, the following risk
factors should be considered carefully in evaluating our business before
purchasing any of our shares of common stock. A purchase of our common stock is
speculative and involves a lot of risks. No purchase of our common stock should
be made by any person who is not in a position to lose the entire amount of his
investment.
[material deleted]
Information in this prospectus contains "forward looking statements" which can
be identified by the use of forward-looking words, such as "believes",
"estimates", "could", "possibly", "probably", "anticipates", "estimates",
"projects", "expects", "may", "will", or "should" or other variations thereon or
similar words. No assurances can be given that the future results anticipated by
the forward-looking statements will be achieved. The following matters
constitute cautionary statements identifying important factors with respect to
those forward-looking statements, including certain risks and uncertainties,
that could cause actual results to vary materially from the future results
anticipated by those forward-looking statements. Among the key factors that have
a direct bearing on our results of operations are the effects of various
governmental regulations, the fluctuation of our direct costs and the costs and
effectiveness of our operating strategy. Other factors could also cause actual
results to vary materially from the future results anticipated by those
forward-looking statements.
Because we are a new company with losses since our formation and we anticipate
that we will lose money in the foreseeable future, we may not be able to achieve
profitable operations.
We were incorporated in March 2000, and we began operations immediately
thereafter. As of June 30, 2000, our losses were approximately $13,615. We are
currently the non-exclusive distributor in the United States of digital cameras
and MP3 audio players developed and manufactured by Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. We have
not yet generated any revenues. We anticipate generating revenues in our current
fiscal year. Our prospects must be considered speculative, considering the
risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of
a new business, specifically the risks inherent in the development of digital
products. We cannot guaranty that unanticipated technical or other problems will
not occur which would result in material delays in future product and service
commercialization or that our efforts will result in successful product and
service commercialization. We cannot guaranty that we will be able to achieve
profitable operations.
Our officers and directors are engaged in other activities that could have
conflicts of interest with us. Therefore, our officers and directors may not
devote sufficient time to our affairs.
The persons serving as our officers and directors have existing responsibilities
and, may have additional responsibilities to provide management and services to
other entities. As a result, conflicts of interest between us and the other
activities of those entities may occur from time to time, in that our officers
and directors shall have conflicts of interest in allocating time, services, and
functions between the other business ventures in which they may be or become
involved and our affairs.
Christopher A. Cota currently serves as managing member of Cota LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company. Cota LLC is the exclusive representative in North
America, Central America and South America for Varitronix (Malaysia) SDN BHD, a
Malaysia corporation and manufacturer of liquid crystal displays. A liquid
crystal display, which is installed in products such as cellular phones,
calculators and watches, consists of an array of tiny segments (called pixels)
that can be manipulated to present information. Mr. Cota currently devotes
approximately 1/2 of his time to Cota LLC. Our digital cameras and music players
currently do not use liquid crystal displays. In the event that we develop
products which use liquid crystal displays and we purchase those displays from
Cota LLC, Mr. Cota will determine the price that we will pay for those displays.
Mr. Cota's determination of that price is a serious conflict of interest.
Ryan A. Neely is the President, Secretary and a director of JPAL, Inc., a Nevada
corporation and an Internet based provider of vacation rentals. Mr. Neely
currently devotes approximately half of his time to JPAL, Inc. We do not believe
that we
5
<PAGE>
have any conflicts of interest with the business or industry of JPAL, Inc.,
other than Mr. Neely's duty to provide management and services.
We operate in a highly competitive industry and we may not have adequate
resources to market our products in order to compete successfully.
Competition in the digital entertainment products industry is intense. We
compete directly with other companies and businesses that have developed and are
in the process of developing digital cameras and music players which are
functionally equivalent or similar to our digital cameras and music players.
Other competitors' entry-level digital cameras are similar to our digital
cameras. Those cameras are inexpensive, yet still provide the user the ability
to digitally photograph images and develop those pictures using a personal
computer and a printer. Our competitors' digital music players are similar to
our digital music players. Those music players are designed to be sold at low
cost, yet still provide quality sound. We expect that these competitors who have
developed similar digital cameras and music players will market those products
to our target customers, which will significantly affect our ability to compete.
[material deleted]
Most of our competitors have substantially greater experience, financial and
technical resources and production, marketing and development capabilities than
we do. Many of those competitors with greater financial resources can afford to
spend more resources than we can to market their products. We will also be
competing with respect to manufacturing efficiency. We cannot guaranty that we
will succeed in marketing, selling and distributing our products. We cannot
guaranty that our competitors will not succeed in marketing, selling and
distributing their products.
Our ability to succeed is uncertain because we currently have limited sources of
revenue and minimal marketing activities due to the lack of revenues.
We are currently engaged primarily in marketing the digital cameras and digital
music players developed and manufactured by Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. Our only
sources of revenue are the sales of our digital cameras and digital music
players. We have not yet generated any revenues. Our marketing activities are
significantly limited and, to fund more sophisticated marketing activities, we
need to generate revenues. Based on our interactions with potential customers,
we hope that we will generate revenues in our current fiscal year.
We are substantially dependent on Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. for our supply of digital
cameras and music players that we sell.
We currently obtain all of our products through our relationship with Joinford
(H.K.) Ltd. We benefit from Joinford (H.K.) Ltd.'s manufacturing and
distribution infrastructure. Our inability to obtain these products and benefits
for any reason, including any disruptions in Joinford (H.K.) Ltd.'s business,
would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance.
Our relationship with Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. will require cooperation. We have the
non-exclusive right to market and distribute the digital cameras and music
players which are manufactured by Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. Any reduction of Joinford
(H.K.) Ltd.'s desire to see us succeed could harm our business and financial
performance.
We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital to market and
distribute our digital cameras and music players and complete our development.
To market and distribute our digital cameras and music players and complete our
development, we will be required to raise additional funds. We believe that we
may be able to acquire additional financing at commercially reasonable rates.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing at
commercially reasonable rates. We anticipate that we will spend a lot of funds
on the marketing and promotion of our digital cameras and music players. The
minimum amount necessary to complete our current development plans is
approximately $25,000. Our failure to
6
<PAGE>
obtain additional funds would significantly limit or eliminate our ability to
fund our sales and marketing activities. This would have a material adverse
effect on our ability to continue our operation and compete with other
providers.
We anticipate that we may seek additional funding through public or private
sales of our securities. That could include equity securities, or through
commercial or private financing arrangements. Adequate funds, may not be
available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. In the event that we are not
able to obtain additional funding on a timely basis, we may be required to limit
any proposed operations or eliminate certain or all of our marketing programs,
either of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations.
Our inability to generate revenues will affect our ability to market our
products.
We may not be able to generate revenues to market and sell our digital cameras
and digital music players effectively. Our failure to sell our digital cameras
and digital music players could adversely affect our business and financial
performance. If we are unable to generate revenues, we anticipate that our
marketing activities will be very limited. Also, our expenses will be limited to
the day-to-day expenditures necessary to conduct business. Our President,
director and principal shareholder, Christopher A. Cota, has paid our expenses
since our inception. Mr. Cota will continue to pay our expenses in the event
that we do not generate revenues.
Our officers, directors and principal security holders own approximately 66% of
our outstanding shares of common stock.
Our directors, officers and principal (greater than 5%) security holders, taken
as a group, together with their affiliates, beneficially own, in the aggregate,
approximately 66% of our outstanding shares of common stock. Certain principal
security holders are our directors or executive officers. Such concentrated
control of the company may adversely affect the price of our common stock. These
security holders may also be able to exert significant influence, or even
control, matters requiring approval by our security holders, including the
election of directors. In addition, certain provisions of Delaware law could
have the effect of making it more difficult or more expensive for a third party
to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control
of us.
We lack a public market for shares of our common stock, which may make it
difficult for investors to sell their shares.
There is no public market for shares of our common stock. We cannot guaranty
that an active public market will develop or be sustained. Therefore, investors
may not be able to find purchasers for their shares of our common stock. Should
there develop a significant market for our shares, the market price for those
shares may be significantly affected by such factors as our financial results
and introduction of new products and services. Factors such as announcements of
new or enhanced products by us or our competitors and quarter-to-quarter
variations in our results of operations, as well as market conditions in the
high technology sector may have a significant impact on the market price of our
shares. Further, the stock market has experienced extreme volatility that has
particularly affected the market prices of stock of many companies and that
often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of
those companies.
Use of Proceeds
[material deleted]
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock
being offered by the selling security holders.
Determination of Offering Price
Factors Used to Determine Share Price. The offering price of the shares being
offered by the selling security holders has no relationship to any established
criteria of value, such as book value or earnings per share. Additionally,
because we have no significant operating history and have not generated any
revenues to date, the price of our common stock is
7
<PAGE>
not based on past earnings, nor is the price of the shares of our common stock
indicative of current market value for the assets owned by us. No valuation or
appraisal has been prepared for our business and potential business expansion.
Dilution
[material deleted]
The shares offered for sale by the selling security holders are already
outstanding and, therefore, do not contribute to dilution.
Selling Security Holders
The following table sets forth the number of shares which may be offered for
sale from time to time by the selling security holders. The shares offered for
sale constitute all of the shares known to us to be beneficially owned by the
selling security holders. None of the selling security holders has held any
position or office with us, except as specified in the following table. Other
than the relationships described below, none of the selling security holders had
or have any material relationship with us.

Plan of Distribution
[material deleted]
8
<PAGE>
The selling security holders may sell our common stock in the over-the-counter
market, or on any securities exchange on which our common stock is or becomes
listed or traded, in negotiated transactions or otherwise. The selling security
holders may sell our common stock at prices then prevailing or related to the
then current market price or at negotiated prices. The shares will not be sold
in an underwritten public offering.
[material deleted]
The shares may be sold directly or through brokers or dealers. The methods by
which the shares may be sold include:
o purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker
or dealer for its account;
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
solicits purchasers; and
o privately negotiated transactions.
Brokers and dealers engaged by selling security holders may arrange for other
brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or
discounts from selling security holders (or, if any such broker-dealer acts as
agent for the purchaser of such shares, from such purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. Broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holders to sell a
specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share, and, to the
extent such broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling
security holder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares at the price
required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to such selling security
holder. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may resell those shares
from time to time in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on
terms then prevailing or then related to the then-current market price or in
negotiated transactions and, in connection with such resales, may receive or pay
commissions.
The selling security holders and any broker-dealers participating in the
distributions of the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933. Any profit on the sale
of shares by the selling security holders and any commissions or discounts given
to any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts. The shares may also be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933 beginning one year after the shares were issued.
We have filed the Registration Statement, of which this prospectus forms a part,
with respect to the sale of the shares by the selling security holders. There
can be no assurance that the selling security holders will sell any or all of
the offered shares.
[material deleted]
Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the regulations thereunder, any
person engaged in a distribution of the shares of our common stock offered by
this prospectus may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with
respect to our common stock during the applicable "cooling off" periods prior to
the commencement of such distribution. Also, the selling security holders are
subject to applicable provisions which limit the timing of purchases and sales
of our common stock by the selling security holders.
We have informed the selling security holders that, during such time as they may
be engaged in a distribution of any of the shares we are registering by this
Registration Statement, they are required to comply with Regulation M. In
general, Regulation M precludes any selling security holder, any affiliated
purchasers and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in a
distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person
to bid for or purchase, any security which is the subject of the distribution
until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M defines a "distribution"
as an offering of securities that is distinguished from ordinary trading
activities by the magnitude of the offering and the presence of special selling
efforts and selling methods. Regulation M also defines a "distribution
participant" as an underwriter, prospective underwriter, broker, dealer, or
other person who has agreed to participate or who is participating in a
distribution.
Regulation M prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the
price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security, except
as specifically permitted by Rule 104 of Regulation M. These stabilizing
transactions may cause the price of our common stock to be more than it would
otherwise be in the absence of these transactions. We have informed the selling
security holders that stabilizing transactions permitted by Regulation M allow
bids to purchase
9
<PAGE>
our common stock if the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.
Regulation M specifically prohibits stabilizing that is the result of
fraudulent, manipulative, or deceptive practices. Selling security holders and
distribution participants are required to consult with their own legal counsel
to ensure compliance with Regulation M.
Legal Proceedings
There are no legal actions pending against us nor are any legal actions
contemplated by us at this time.
Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons
Executive Officers and Directors. We are dependent on the efforts and abilities
of certain of our senior management. The interruption of the services of key
management could have a material adverse effect on our operations, profits and
future development, if suitable replacements are not promptly obtained. We
anticipate that we will enter into employment agreements with each of our key
executives. We cannot guaranty that each executive will remain with us during or
after the term of his or her employment agreement. In addition, our success
depends, in part, upon our ability to attract and retain other talented
personnel. Although we believe that our relations with our personnel are good
and that we will continue to be successful in attracting and retaining qualified
personnel, we cannot guaranty that we will be able to continue to do so. Our
officers and directors will hold office until their resignations or removal.
Our directors and principal executive officers are as specified on the following

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment
power with respect to securities. In accordance with Securities and Exchange
Commission rules, shares of our common stock which may be acquired upon exercise
of stock options or warrants which are currently exercisable or which become
exercisable within 60 days of the date of the table are deemed beneficially
owned by the optionees. Subject to community property laws, where applicable,
the persons or entities named in the table above have sole voting and investment
power with respect to all shares of our common stock indicated as beneficially
owned by them.
Changes in Control. Our management is not aware of any arrangements which may
result in "changes in control" as that term is defined by the provisions of Item

Description of Securities
We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock.
Each share of common stock has equal rights and preferences, including voting
privileges. We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of $.001 par value

Each shareholder of our common stock is entitled to a pro rata share of cash
distributions made to shareholders, including dividend payments. The holders of
our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of record on all
matters to be voted on by shareholders. There is no cumulative voting with
respect to the election of our directors or any other matter. Therefore, the
holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of those directors
can elect all of the directors. The holders of our common stock are entitled to
receive dividends when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors from funds
legally available therefor. Cash dividends are at the sole discretion of our
Board of Directors. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up,
the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining available for distribution to them after payment of our liabilities
and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having any
preference in relation to our common stock. Holders of shares of our common
stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are
no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.
Dividend Policy. We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our capital
stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use
in our business. Any dividends declared in the future will be at the discretion
of our Board of Directors and subject to any restrictions that may be imposed by
our lenders.

Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act
Liabilities
Article Six of our Certificate of Incorporation provides, among other things,
that our directors shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability:
o for any breach of such director's duty of loyalty to us or our
security holders;
o for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
o liability for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock
purchase or redemption by us; or
o for any transaction from which such director derived any improper
personal benefit.
Accordingly, our directors may have no liability to our shareholders for any
mistakes or errors of judgment or for any act of omission, unless the act or
omission involves intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law
or results in unlawful distributions to our shareholders.
Article VI of our Bylaws also provides that our officers and directors shall be
indemnified and held harmless by us to the fullest extent permitted by the
provisions of Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Indemnification Agreements. We will enter into indemnification agreements with
each of our executive officers. We will agree to indemnify each such person for
all expenses and liabilities, including criminal monetary judgments, penalties
and fines, incurred by such person in connection with any criminal or civil
action brought or threatened against such person by reason of such person being
or having been our officer or director or employee. In order to be entitled to
indemnification by us, such person must have acted in good faith and in a manner
such person believed to be in our best interests. With respect to criminal
actions, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful.
12
<PAGE>
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in that act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Organization Within Last Five Years
Transactions with Promoters. Christopher A. Cota was issued 875,000 shares of
our common stock in exchange for his services as our promoter. The value of the
services performed by Mr. Cota were approximately $875.00
Description of Business
Our Background. MVD, Inc. was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of
Delaware on March 14, 2000.
Our Business. We are a developmental stage company. We intend to provide digital
entertainment products and services. Our principal business activities include
the distribution and sale of digital cameras and digital music players developed
and manufactured by third parties, and the development of digital-related
services. Our current products include a digital camera and a digital music
player, which are manufactured by Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. We have not yet generated
any revenues from the sale of our digital cameras or music players.
[material deleted]
To effectuate our business plan during the next three to six months, we must
market our digital camera and digital music player. We believe that we will
generate revenues to pay for our proposed marketing activities. If we are unable
to generate revenues necessary to pay for our development, we believe that our
officers and directors, who are also our principal shareholders, will contribute
funds to pay for our expenses. Therefore, we have not contemplated any plan of
liquidation in the event that we do not generate revenues.
To further market our digital cameras and digital music players, we believe that
we need a minimum of $25,000. Any revenues generated will be used to develop
sales and promotional materials as well as marketing expenses related to meeting
with potential customers. Our management has recently begun marketing and
promoting our products by scheduling in person meetings to display our products
and demonstrate their capabilities. If we are unable to generate revenues to pay
for our proposed marketing activities, we hope that we will continue to market
our products by in person meetings. Our failure to pay for our marketing
activities could result in our inability to meet the objectives of our business
plan within the next six months.
Products and Services.
Digital Cameras. Our products include an "entry level" digital camera, which is
inexpensive and user friendly. Digital cameras do not use film to develop
photographs. The pictures are captured and saved as digital data on disks. The
digital data is then developed on a personal computer and printed by a laser
printer. We believe that our digital camera possesses all of the features and
functionality of the entry-level digital cameras manufactured by such companies
as Eastman Kodak and Canon.
Digital Music Players. Our products also include a portable digital music
player, which plays music that has been digitally compressed in a format known
as Moving Pictures Experts Group Layer 3, commonly referred to as MP3. Moving
Pictures Experts Group is an International Standards Organization standard for
compressing and storing video, audio, and animation in digital form. MP3 players
contain no moveable parts and are very lightweight yet extremely durable. Our
MP3 players are designed to be compatible with a simple personal computer and
produce stereo quality sound.
13
<PAGE>
Future Products. If we generate significant revenues from sales of our digital
cameras and digital music players in the next twelve months, we may expand our
product line to include additional digital entertainment products, such as
digital toys and games and online digital data storage facilities.
Our Website. Our current website displays pictures of our digital cameras and a
digital music players and provides our address, telephone number and e-mail
address. If we generate revenues, we intend to further develop the website to
market our digital entertainment products. If we generate significant revenues
from the sale of our digital cameras and music players, we plan to expand and
design our website to function as a digital community for businesses and
consumers. We believe that our website could be developed to allow users to
interact with other digital users, obtain advice, products and services from
vendors and purchase our digital entertainment products.
Internet Advertising. If we generate significant revenues, we anticipate that we
will expand and develop our website for businesses and consumers. If we develop
our website as we anticipate, we believe that we will be able to generate
advertising revenues from companies which have complementary products such as
flash memory, and desire to advertise our on website. The Internet is emerging
as an attractive method for advertisers, due to the growth in the number of
Internet users, the amount of time Internet users spend on the Internet, the
increase in electronic commerce, the interactive nature of the Internet, the
Internet's global reach, the ability to reach targeted audiences and a variety
of other factors. Many of the largest advertisers in traditional media,
including consumer products companies, automobile manufacturers and others, have
increased their use of Internet advertising. We believe that larger companies
will begin to allocate significant portions of their total advertising budgets
for Internet advertising. We believe that significant revenues can be generated
from online advertising, initially from small business service providers and
product vendors and, as use of our website increases, from advertisers, such as
consumer products companies.
Our Target Markets and Marketing Strategy. We believe that our primary target
market will consist of manufacturers of computer hardware that desire to promote
the sale of their existing products (e.g., printers, computers, telephones) by
combining complementary products, such as our digital camera or MP3 player, with
their product. We believe that many manufacturers of computer hardware will
desire to combine our entry-level digital entertainment products as promotions
for their products. As an added incentive, the logo of the computer hardware
manufacturer can be added to our products to increase the specialization of the
promotion.
We intend to target large manufacturers of non-electronic consumer products who
desire to purchase our products for use as specialty promotional products or
gifts. We believe that the newness and uniqueness of digital entertainment
products will entice companies that desire to promote their company name and
brand to purchase our products.
We also intend to target retail consumer electronic distributors, such as Best
Buy, Circuit City, and Radio Shack. We believe that discount retail consumer
electronic distributors, such as Wal-Mart, Target and K-Mart, are potential
customers, as these retail distributors offer a variety of entry-level digital
entertainment products.
We will market and promote our website on the Internet. Our marketing strategy
is to promote our services and products and attract businesses to our website.
Our marketing initiatives include:
o utilizing direct response print advertisements placed primarily in
small business, entrepreneurial, and financially-oriented magazines
and special interest magazines;
o links to industry focused websites;
o advertising by television, radio, banners, affiliated marketing and
direct mail;
o [material deleted]
o entering into affiliate marketing relationships with website providers
to increase our access to Internet business consumers.
Pricing Strategy. Our competitors provide digital cameras that are priced from
as low as $50 to as much as $2,500. We believe that approximately eighty percent
(80%) of digital cameras are priced between $200 and $900, with a median price
of $450. We intend to offer our digital cameras with a price of less than $300,
yet with many of the features that are available in our competitors' higher
priced products.
14
<PAGE>
We believe that the prices for portable MP3 players generally vary from $120 to
$800. The majority of portable MP3 players are priced from $100 to $200. Our
strategy is to offer our MP3 players at prices below these of our competitors'
equivalent products.
Growth Strategy. Our objective is to become a dominant provider of low cost
digital entertainment products and services. Our strategy is to continue
providing clients with exceptional personal service and low cost digital
entertainment products. Key elements of our strategy include:
o negotiate distribution agreements with third party manufacturers for
digital entertainment products and services;
o continue and expand our website;
o increase the number of Internet users to our website;
o increase our relationships with businesses;
o increase our relationships with third party providers of digital
products and services;
o provide additional services for businesses and consumers; and
o pursue relationships with joint venture candidates which will support
our development.
Our Supplier. We are marketing the digital cameras and music players developed
and manufactured by Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. We have not yet generated any revenues
from the sale of our digital cameras and music players. We do not have a written
agreement with Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. We do not anticipate that we will have a
written agreement until we are able to generate revenues to market our products.
Our arrangement with Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. provides that we will sell their
products subject to our customers' specifications and, therefore, our profit
will be determined on a case-by-case basis. For example, if we sell digital
cameras to manufacturers of computer hardware to be bundled with their current
products, then we will negotiate a price for the digital cameras with Joinford
(H.K.) Ltd. and increase the price to our customer. We do not have any other
relationships with additional suppliers of digital cameras and music players.
If we generate significant revenues, we anticipate that we will be able to
develop relationships with additional suppliers so that we will have alternative
suppliers in the event that Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. does not desire or is unable to
supply a sufficient amount of products to meet our anticipated customer's
requirements. We also plan to enter arrangements with other suppliers to
diversify our product offerings.
Our Competition. The digital entertainment products industry is new, rapidly
evolving and has become significantly competitive. Current and new competitors
may be able to establish products at a relatively low cost and relatively
quickly. We compete directly with other companies and businesses that have
developed, and are in the process of developing, digital cameras and music
players which are functionally equivalent or similar to our digital cameras and
music players. Other competitors' entry-level digital cameras are similar to our
digital cameras because they are inexpensive, yet still provide the user the
ability to digitally photograph images and develop pictures using a personal
computer and a printer. Our competitors' digital music players are similar to
our digital music players because they are designed to be sold at low cost, yet
still provide quality sound. We currently have no market share in our primary
target markets of manufacturers of computer hardware who may desire to combine
our products with their products and large manufacturers of non-electronic
consumer products who may desire to offer our products as promotional or
specialty products. We believe we can gain shares in these markets as a low cost
competitor.
[material deleted]
Our Research and Development. We are not currently conducting any research and
development activities. We do not anticipate conducting such activities in the
near future. If we generate significant revenues, we may expand our product line
by entering into distribution relationships with third party manufacturers.
[material deleted]
Government Regulation. We do not believe that we need any governmental approval
for our digital cameras and digital music players. Our business is subject to
Federal Trade Commission regulation and other federal and state laws relating
15
<PAGE>
to the promotion, advertising, labeling and packaging of our products. We
believe that we are in compliance with all laws, rules and regulations material
to our operations and have obtained.
[material deleted]
We may be subject to the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992, which regulates
manufacturers and importers of digital audio recording devices. The Audio Home
Recording Act of 1992 provides digital audio recording devices must contain one
of the following:
o The Serial Copy Management System, which permits first-generation
digital-to-digital copies of prerecorded music and other audio works,
but prohibits multi-generation or "serial" copies of those copies;
o A system with the same functional characteristics as Serial Copy
Management System, and which acts compatibly on the same copyright and
generation status information as used by Serial Copy Management
System; or
o Any other system certified by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce as
prohibiting unauthorized serial copying.
The Audio Home Recording Act also provides that devices or services designed to
circumvent the Serial Copy Management System or any other serial copy control
system may not be distributed. We do not believe that our digital music players
are subject to this regulation, because our products cannot record music.
However, there can be no assurance that we will not be required to comply with
appropriate regulation and that, in the event we are required to comply, our
business will not be adversely affected.
Employees. As of August 16, 2000, we have two (2) employees. We anticipate that
we will not hire any employees in the next six months, unless we generate
significant revenues. We believe our future success depends in large part upon
the continued service of our key senior management personnel and our ability to
attract and retain managerial personnel.

Facilities. Our executive, administrative and operating offices are located at
660 Dover Street, Suite A16, Boca Raton, Florida 33487 and are provided to us,
at no charge, by Christopher A. Cota.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
[material deleted]
Liquidity and Capital Resources. We have cash of $920.00 as of June 30, 2000. We
were incorporated on March 14, 2000 and our only material expense has been legal
fees of approximately $10,494. Our President, director and principal
shareholder, Christopher A. Cota, has paid our expenses since our inception. We
anticipate that Mr. Cota will continue to pay our expenses in the event that we
do not generate revenues or obtain additional working capital.
Results of Operations. We have not yet realized any revenue from operations. Our
expenses of approximately $13,615 consist of start-up costs from formation
through June 30, 2000.
Our Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months. Our plan of operation is
materially dependent on our ability to generate revenues. If we are able to
generate significant revenues, we anticipate that those revenues will be used to
market our digital cameras and music players, provide us with working capital
and pay our legal and accounting fees for the next twelve months. If we generate
those revenues, then we expect that our expenses for the next twelve months will
be approximately $100,000. If we are unable to generate revenues, then we
anticipate that our expenses for the next twelve months will be limited to the
day-to-day expenditures necessary to conduct business. Our President, director
and principal shareholder, Christopher A. Cota, has paid our expenses since our
inception. Mr. Cota will continue to pay our expenses in the event that we do
not generate revenues.
[material deleted]
16
<PAGE>
Based on our discussions with potential customers, we believe we will begin to
generate revenues in or around November 2000. In the opinion available funds
will satisfy our working capital requirements through November 2000. We have
begun marketing our products to potential customers. We believe that we may have
orders for our digital music player if our supplier, Joinford (H.K.) Ltd., can
redesign the players to comply with the potential customers' design and price
specifications. Our arrangement with Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. provides that we will
sell their products subject to our customers' specifications. Therefore, our
profits will be determined on a case-by-case basis. For example, if we are
selling digital cameras to manufacturers of computer hardware to be combined
with their current products, then we will negotiate prices for the digital
cameras with Joinford (H.K.) Ltd. and increase the prices to our customers.
Our forecast for the period for which our financial resources will be adequate
to support our operations involves risks and uncertainties and actual results
could fail as a result of a number of factors. We anticipate that we may need to
raise additional capital to develop, promote and conduct our operations. Such
additional capital may be raised through public or private financing as well as
borrowings and other sources. There can be no assurance that additional funding
will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not
available, we believe that our officers and directors will contribute funds to
pay for our expenses. Therefore, we have not contemplated any plan of
liquidation in the event that we do not generate revenues.

Our Facilities. We recently moved to facilities located at 660 Dover Street,
Suite A16, Boca Raton, Florida 33487. The facilities are provided, at no charge,
by Christopher A. Cota, our President and a director. We do not have a written
lease or sublease agreement and Mr. Cota does not expect to be paid or
reimbursed for providing office facilities. Mr. Cota leases the facilities at
$1,100 per month and the lease expires in October 2000.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Conflicts Related to Other Business Activities. The persons serving as our
officers and directors have existing responsibilities and, in the future, may
have additional responsibilities, to provide management and services to other
entities in addition to us. As a result, conflicts of interest between us and
the other entities may occur from time to time.
Christopher A. Cota currently serves as managing member of Cota LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company. Cota LLC is the exclusive representative in North
America, Central America and South America for Varitronix (Malaysia) SDN BHD, a
Malaysia corporation and manufacturer of liquid crystal displays. A liquid
crystal display, which is installed in products such as cellular phones,
calculators and watches, consists of an array of tiny segments (called pixels)
that can be manipulated to display information. Mr. Cota currently devotes
approximately 1/2 of his time to Cota LLC. Our digital cameras and music players
currently do not use liquid crystal displays. In the event that we develop
products which use liquid crystal displays and we purchase those displays from
Cota LLC, Mr. Cota's management of Cota LLC will conflict with our interests.
Also, in the event we purchase those displays from Cota LLC, Mr. Cota will
determine the purchase price we will pay to Cota LLC for those displays.
Ryan A. Neely is the President, Secretary and a director of JPAL, Inc., a Nevada
corporation and an Internet based provider of vacation rentals. Mr. Neely
currently devotes approximately half of his time to JPAL, Inc. We do not believe
that we have any conflicts of interest with the business or industry of JPAL,
Inc., other than Mr. Neely's duty to provide management and services.
17
<PAGE>
We will attempt to resolve any such conflicts of interest in our favor. Our
officers and directors are accountable to us and our shareholders as
fiduciaries, which requires that such officers and directors exercise good faith
and integrity in handling our affairs. A shareholder may be able to institute
legal action on our behalf or on behalf of that shareholder and all other
similarly situated shareholders to recover damages or for other relief in cases
of the resolution of conflicts in any manner prejudicial to us.
Related Party Transactions. Christopher A. Cota, our President, Treasurer and
director, has provided $10,000 to us and currently provides office space to us
at no charge.
Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Reports to Security Holders. Our securities are not listed for trading on any
exchange or quotation service. We are not required to comply with the timely
disclosure policies of any exchange or quotation service. The requirements to
which we would be subject if our securities were so listed typically include the
timely disclosure of a material change or fact with respect to our affairs and
the making of required filings. Although we are not required to deliver an
annual report to security holders, we intend to provide an annual report to our
security holders, which will include audited financial statements.

When we become a reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the public may read and copy any materials filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission at the Security and Exchange Commission's Public Reference
Room at 450 Fifth Street N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may also
obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the
Securities and Exchange Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330. The Securities and
Exchange Commission maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and
information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file
electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The address of that
site is http://www.sec.gov.
[material deleted]
There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities
convertible into, shares of our common stock. There are no outstanding shares of
our common stock that could be sold pursuant to Rule 144 pursuant to the
Securities Act of 1933 or that we have agreed to register under the Securities
Act of 1933 for sale by security holders. The approximate number of holders of
record of shares of our common stock is twenty-three (23).
There have been no cash dividends declared on our common stock. Dividends are
declared at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors.
Penny Stock Regulation. Shares of our common stock are subject to rules adopted
by the Securities and Exchange Commission that regulate broker-dealer practices
in connection with transactions in "penny stocks". Penny stocks are generally
equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities
registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq
system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to
transactions in those securities is provided by the exchange or system). The
penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny
stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which
contains the following:
o a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny
stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
o a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and
of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to
violation to such duties or other requirements of securities' laws;
o a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including
"bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the
spread between the "bid" and "ask" price;
18
<PAGE>
o a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
o definitions of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the
conduct of trading in penny stocks; and
o such other information and is in such form (including language, type,
size and format), as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall
require by rule or regulation.
Prior to effecting any transaction in penny stock, the broker-dealer also must
provide the customer the following:
o the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
o the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction;
o the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other
comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the
market for such stock; and
o monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny
stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a
special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for
the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt
of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement. These
disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in
the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.
Holders of shares of our common stock may have difficulty selling those shares
because our common stock will probably be subject to the penny stock rules.
Executive Compensation
Any compensation received by our officers, directors, and management personnel
will be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. Our officers,
directors, and management personnel will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket
expenses incurred on our behalf.
Summary Compensation Table. The table set forth below summarizes the annual and
long-term compensation for services in all capacities to us payable to our Chief
Executive Officer and our other executive officers whose total annual salary and
bonus are anticipated to exceed $50,000 during the year ending December 31,
2000. Our Board of Directors may adopt an incentive stock option plan for our
executive officers which would result in additional compensation.

[LETTERHEAD OF LESLEY, THOMAS, SCHWARZ & POSTMA, INC.]
July 17, 2000
Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors and stockholders of
MVD, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of MVD, Inc. (a development
stage company) as of June 30, 2000, and the related statements of operations,
changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period March 14, 2000
(inception) through June 30, 2000. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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 significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides 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 MVD, Inc. at June 30, 2000,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period March 14,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Business - MVD, Inc. (the "Company") doing
business in Florida as MVDIGITAL, Inc. provides digital entertainment products
and services. The Company's primary focus is the distribution and sale of
digital entertainment products developed and manufactured by third parties and
the development of digital related services.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the balance sheet and statement
of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments
purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes", which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the
financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted
rates in effect for the periods in which the differences are expected to
reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred
tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Start-up Activities - The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement
of Position 98-5, "reporting Costs of Start-up Activities" ("SOP 98-5"). SOP
98-5 requires that the costs of start-up activities including organization costs
be expensed as incurred.

<PAGE>
NOTE 2 - ADVANCE FROM STOCKHOLDER
On March 14, 2000, the principal stockholder and officer of the Company
advanced the Company $10,000 which was used for initial legal and start-up
expenses of the Company. This advance is non-interest bearing, due on demand,
and is to be repaid as cash becomes available.
NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is currently utilizing office space provided by the Company's
President (a stockholder). The Company has recorded rent expense of $770 which
represents the Company's pro rata share of the office space being provided by
the Company's President. The President has waived reimbursement of the allocated
rent and has considered it as additional paid-in capital.
NOTE 4 - COMPANY SECURITIES
Description of Capital Stock - The authorized capital stock of the Company
consists of 50,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock of which 2,500,000
are issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2000 and 5,000,000 shares of $.001 par
value preferred stock of which no such shares are issued and outstanding as of
June 30, 2000. Holders of shares of the Company's common stock are entitled to
receive dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Company.
All the shares of common stock have equal voting rights and are nonassessable.
Each share of common stock is entitled to share ratably in any assets available
for distribution to holders of the Company's equity securities upon liquidation
of the Company.
Dividend Policy - Any payment of dividends will be at the sole and absolute
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will depend upon earnings,
financial condition, capital requirements, amount of indebtedness, contractual
restrictions with respect to payment of dividends, and other factors. Any such
dividends may be paid in cash, property or shares of the Company's capital
stock. The Company has not paid any dividends since its formation, and it is not
probable that any dividends on the Company's common stock will be declared at
any time in the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that any dividends
on the Company's common stock will be paid in the future.
Dilution - The following table sets forth the number of shares of $.001 par
value common stock purchased from the Company, the total consideration paid and
the price per share.

services were valued using hourly rates at estimated fair market value of
similar services. As mentioned in Note 3 the Company has recorded rent expense
for office space being provided by the President.

Due to the Company being in the development stage, various risks must be
considered carefully. These risks include, but are not necessarily limited to,

will achieve a significant degree of market acceptance, and that acceptance, if
achieved, will be sustained for any period sufficient to permit the Company to
recover associated costs; (ii) there can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to adequately protect its trade secrets and proprietary information;
(iii) the Company's officers and directors may be subject to various conflicts
of interest; (iv) the Company's results of operations may vary from period to
period as a result of a variety of factors; (v) the market for the Company's
products and services is characterized by continuous development, production and

Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the
common stock offered by the selling security holders. This prospectus does not
contain all of the information set forth in the Registration Statement and the
exhibits and schedules to the Registration Statement. For further information
regarding us and our common stock offered hereby, reference is made to the
Registration Statement and the exhibits and schedules filed as a part of the

PART II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Article Six of our Certificate of Incorporation provides, among other things,
that our directors shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for:
o any breach of such director's duty of loyalty to us or our security
holders;
o acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
o liability for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock
purchase or redemption by us; or
o any transaction from which such director derived any improper personal
benefit.
Accordingly, our directors may have no liability to our shareholders for any
mistakes or errors of judgment or for any act of omission, unless such act or
omission involves intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law
or results in unlawful distributions to our shareholders.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we will indemnify our directors
to the extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, including
circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under the
Delaware General Corporation Law. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides
that to the extent that Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to permit
further indemnification, we will so indemnify our directors.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation
shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any pending, threatened, or
20
<PAGE>
completed civil, criminal, administrative, or arbitration action, suit, or
proceeding, or any appeal therein or any inquiry or investigation which could
result in such action, suit, or proceeding, because of his or her being or
having been our director, officer, employee, or agent or of any constituent
corporation absorbed by us in a consolidation or merger or by reason of his or
her being or having been a director, officer, trustee, employee, or agent of any
other corporation or of any partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship,
trust, employee benefit plan, or such enterprise, serving as such at our request
or of any such constituent corporation, or the legal representative of any such
director, officer, trustee, employee, or agent, from and against any and all
reasonable costs, disbursements, and attorney's fees, and any and all amounts
paid or incurred in satisfaction of settlements, judgments, fines, and
penalties, incurred or suffered in connection with any such proceeding.
Article VI of our Bylaws also provides that our officers and directors shall be
indemnified and held harmless by us to the fullest extent permitted by the
provisions of Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Indemnification Agreements. We anticipate that we will enter into
indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers pursuant to which
we will agree to indemnify each such officer for all expenses and liabilities,
including criminal monetary judgments, penalties and fines, incurred by such
person in connection with any criminal or civil action brought or threatened
against such person by reason of such person being or having been our officer or
director or employee. To be entitled to indemnification by us, such officer must
have acted in good faith and in a manner such officer believed to be in our best
interests and, with respect to criminal actions, such person must have had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution
We will pay all expenses in connection with the registration and sale of the
common stock by the selling security holders. The estimated expenses of issuance
and distribution are set forth below.
===================================================================
Registration Fees Approximately $264.00

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
There have been no sales of unregistered securities within the last three (3)
years which would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 701 of Regulation
S-B, except for the following:
On or about May 8, 2000, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock for
$.001 per share. The shares were issued in a transaction which we believe
satisfies the requirements of that exemption from the registration and
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, which exemption
is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that act and Rule 506 of
Regulation D promulgated pursuant to that act by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Specifically, the offer was made to "accredited investors", as that
term is defined under applicable federal and state securities laws, and no more
than 35 non-accredited investors. The value of the shares was arbitrarily set by
us and had no relationship to our assets, book value, revenues or other
established criteria of value. There were no commissions paid on the sale of
these shares. The net proceeds to us were $1,000. All nineteen purchasers of
shares of our common stock were business associates, personal friends or family
members of Christopher A Cota, our President and one of our directors.
21
<PAGE>
On or about March 17, 2000, we issued 1,500,000 shares of our common stock to
Christopher A. Cota; Thomas E. Stepp, Jr.; Richard Reincke and Michael
Muellerleile, in a transaction which we believe satisfies the requirements of
that certain exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, which exemption is specified by the
provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The shares
were issued in exchange for services provided to us, which were valued at
$1,500. Thomas E. Stepp, Jr.; Richard Reincke and Michael Muellerleile provided
legal services to us and Christopher A. Cota provided services related to our
incorporation.

Undertakings
A. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by
our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in
the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
22
<PAGE>
B. We hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To specify in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the Registration Statement (or most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually
or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) (Section 230.424(b) of Regulation S-B)
if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; 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.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
