Item 3. Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.
The following documents are incorporated by reference in to the registration
statement:
1. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1995;
2. The Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB for the quarters ended March

All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, subsequent to the date
hereof and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates
that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which de-registers all
securities covered hereby then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be
incorporated as by reference herein and to be part hereof from the date of
filing of such documents, except as to any portion of any future Annual or
Quarterly Report to Stockholders which is deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that such statement is
replaced or modified by a statement contained in a subsequently dated document
incorporated by reference or contained in this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
The Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of
Incorporation") of the Company authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.001 per share. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to
one vote for each share on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders. All
outstanding shares of Common Stock of record are fully paid, validly issued and
nonassessable and the holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights to
subscribe for or to purchase any additional securities issued by the Company.
The Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting. Upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Common
Stock are entitled to share ratably in the distribution of assets remaining
after payment of debts and expenses. There are no conversion, sinking fund or
redemption provisions, or any restrictions on alienability with respect to the
Common Stock.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the issuance of the securities registered pursuant to this
registration statement is being passed upon for the Company by Morgan F.
Johnston, Attorney, 5825 Steeplechase, Dallas, Texas 75093.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The General Corporation Law of Nevada permits provisions in the articles,
by-laws or resolutions approved by shareholders which limit liability of
directors for breach of fiduciary duty to certain specified circumstances. The
Company's by-laws indemnify its Officers and Directors to the full extent
permitted by Nevada law. The by-laws with certain exceptions eliminate any
personal liability of a Director to the Company or its shareholders for monetary
damages for the breach of a Director's fiduciary duty and therefore a Director
cannot be held liable for damages to the Company or its shareholders for gross
negligence or lack of due care in carrying out his fiduciary duties as a
Director. The Company's Articles provide for indemnification to the full extent
permitted under law which includes all liability, damages, and costs or expenses
arising from or in connection with service for, employment by, or other
affiliation with the Company to the maximum extent and under all circumstances
permitted by law. Nevada law permits indemnification if a director or officer
acts in good faith in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to ,
the best interest's of the corporation. A director or officer must be
indemnified as to any matter in which he successfully defends himself.
Indemnification is prohibited as to any matter in which the director or officer
is adjudged liable to the corporation. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors,
officers, and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Company has 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.

(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

Re: S-8 Registration Statement
Gentlemen:
At your request, I have examined the form of Registration Statement,
No.333-________, which you are filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), in connection with the
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of an aggregate of
758,008 shares of your Common Stock (the "Stock") issuable to consultants under
the Agreement for Consulting Services (the "Plan").
In rendering the following opinion, I have examined and relied only upon the
documents, and certificates of officers and directors of the Company as are
specifically described below. In my examination, I have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures, the authenticity, accuracy and completeness of the documents
submitted to me as originals, and the conformity with the original documents of
all documents submitted to me as copies. My examination was limited to the
following documents and no others:
1. Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date;
2. Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date;
3. Certified Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company
authorizing the Plan and the issuance of the Stock under the Plan;
4. The Registration Statement; and
5. The Form of Plan. I have not undertaken, nor do I intend to undertake,
any independent investigation beyond such documents and records, or to
verify the adequacy of accuracy of such documents and records.
<PAGE>
Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Stock to be issued under
the Plan, subject to effectiveness of the Registration Statement and compliance
with applicable blue sky laws, and execution of the Plan in the form referred to
herein, when issued under the Plan or otherwise, will by duly and validly
authorized, fully paid and non-assessable.
I express no opinion as to compliance with the securities or "blue sky" laws
of any state in which the Stock is proposed to be offered and sold or as to the
effect, if any, which non-compliance with such laws might have on the validity
of issuance of the Stock.
I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to any filing made
with the Securities and Exchange Commission or under any state or other
jurisdiction's securities act for the purpose of registering, qualifying or
establishing eligibility for an exemption from registration or qualification of
the Stock described in the Registration Statement in connection with the
offering described therein. Other than as provided in the preceding sentence,
this opinion (i) is addressed solely to you, (ii) may not be relied upon by any
other party, (iii) covers only matters of Nevada and federal law and nothing in
this opinion shall be deemed to imply any opinion related to the laws of any
other jurisdiction, (iv) may not be quoted or reproduced or delivered by you to
any other person, and (v) may not be relied upon for any other purpose
whatsoever. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relate to or constitute an opinion
concerning any matters not specifically set forth above.
The information set forth herein is as of the date of this letter. I
disclaim any undertaking to advise you of changes which may be brought to my
attention after the effective date of the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Morgan F. Johnston
