Voting Rights
Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote, in person or
by proxy, at meetings of shareholders or by written consent. The holders are not
permitted to vote their shares cumulatively. Accordingly, the holders of more
than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock
can elect all of the directors of the Company.
Dividend Policy
All shares of Common stock are entitled to participate ratably in dividends when
and as declared by the Company's Board of Directors out of the funds legally
available thereof. Any such dividends may be paid in cash, property or
additional shares of Common Stock. The Company presently anticipates that all
earnings, if any, will be retained for development of the Company's business and
that no dividends on the shares of Common Stock will be declared in the
foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of
the Company's Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things,
future earnings, the operating and financial condition of the Company, its
capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent factors.
Miscellaneous
The Company's Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Bulletin Board. Holders of
Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights, conversion rights,
redemption or sinking fund right. In the event of the dissolution, whether
voluntary or involuntary, of the Company, each share of Common Stock is entitled
to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of the
equity of the Company after satisfaction of all liabilities. The class of
securities to be offered is registered under Section 11 of the Exchange Act.
The Transfer Agent for the Company's Common Stock is:
Securities Transfer Corp.

Dohan and Company, CPA, Consent to Incorporation by reference of 10-KSB dated

Item 6 - Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws contain provisions which
reduce the potential personal liability of directors for certain monetary
damages and provide for indemnity of directors and other persons, among other
things, as does state law. The provisions are intended to increase the
protection provided Directors and, thus, increase the Company's ability to
attract and retain qualified
3
<PAGE>
persons to serve as Directors. New Mexico Statues, as amended, Chapter 53,
authorizes the indemnification of officers and directors and certain others
under certain circumstances.
The Articles of Incorporation also provide indemnification as follows (summary):
(a) A person who is or was an officer, Director and certain others, as to a
pending or completed action or suit or certain other matters.
(b) Certain persons serving under other corporations, and/or certain other
entities, at the request of the Company.
(c) Indemnification for expenses in certain circumstances.
(d) Indemnification only in cases as ordered by court or determined by the
Board.
(e) Indemnification is non-exclusive as to any other rights to indemnity.
(f) The foregoing is also subject to certain exceptions and limitations.
The By-Laws also provide indemnification as follows:
The corporation shall indemnify any director or officer or former director or
officer of the corporation, or any person who may have served at its request as
a director or officer or another corporation in which it owns shares of capital
stock or of which it is a creditor, against expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with the defense of any action, suit or
proceeding, civil or criminal, in which he is made a party by reason of being or
having been such a director or officer, except in relation to matters as to
which he shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding to be liable for
negligence or misconduct in the performance of duty to the corporation. The
foregoing shall not be construed as prohibiting in any way any broader
indemnification permitted by the articles of incorporation. In the opinion of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933 is contrary to public policy and, therefore, is
unenforceable.
Item 7 - Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not Applicable.
Item 8 - Exhibits.
See Exhibits and Exhibit Index herein.
Item 9 - Undertakings.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which,
individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in
the registration statement; and 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 of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in
the form of prospectus filed with
4
<PAGE>
the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the
volume and price represent no more than twenty percent (20%) change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective registration statement.
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information
on the plan of distribution.
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities
offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona
fide offering.
(3) For determining any liability under the securities Act, treat the
information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the small business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1), or (4) or
497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the
time Commission declared it effective.
(4) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment as a new registration statement for the securities
offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona
fide offering.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "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 in against public policy as
expressed in the 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, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant 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, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a Court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Tavares, FL 32778
RE: SEC Registration Statement on Form S-8
Dear Sir/Madam:
This firm (" the Firm") has been engaged as counsel for American Millennium
Corporation, Inc. a New Mexico corporation ("the Company"), in connection with
its proposed offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
of three hundred thirteen thousand (313,000) shares of its Common Stock which
are to be issued under a plan for consulting services by the Company, by a
filing of a Registration Statement under Form S-8 to which this opinion is a
part, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"). In
connection with rendering the opinion as set forth below, the Firm has reviewed
and examined originals or copies of the following:
1. Articles of Incorporation of the Company, and any amendments, as
filed with the Secretary of State of New Mexico;
2. By-Laws of the Company and Written Consent or Minutes of a Meeting
of the Board of Directors on or about August 11, 1998, authorizing the
Consulting Plan ("Plan") with certain consultants and certain other matters;
3. Consultant Services Plan by the Company dated August 11, 1998; and
4. The Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 and exhibits
thereto as filed with the Commission.
In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures,
the legal capacity of all persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted
to the Firm as originals, the conformity with the original documents of all
documents submitted to the Firm as certified or photostatic copies, and the
authenticity of the originals of such copies and the truth of all information
supplied us.
E-2
<PAGE>
We have further assumed, among other things, that the recipient of the
Shares will have completed the required services, and/or provided considerations
required acceptable to the Board of Directors and in compliance with Form S-8
and that any Shares to be issued will have been registered in accordance with
the Act, absent the application of an exemption from registration, prior to the
issuance of such Shares. We have not independently investigated or verified any
matter, assumption, or representation.
Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereof, it is our opinion
that, subject to the limitations set forth herein, the Shares to be issued will
be duly and validly authorized, legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
This opinion is expressly limited in scope to the Shares enumerated herein which
are to be expressly covered by the referenced Registration Statement and does
not cover subsequent issuances of shares, pertaining to services to be performed
in the future (such transactions are required to be included in either a new
registration Statement or a Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration
Statement including updated opinions).
This opinion is limited. We consent to you filing this opinion with the
Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form S-8. This opinion
is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other
purpose without our prior written consent. This opinion is based upon our
assumptions as to application of the law and facts as of the date hereof. We
assume no duty to communicate with you with respect to any matters which come to
our attention hereafter.
Sincerely yours,
THE LAW OFFICE OF BRENDA LEE HAMILTON, P.A.
