DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The Company is currently authorized to issue up to 25,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, par value $.004 per share, of which approximately 12,915,000 were
outstanding as of May 8, 1996.
Common Stock
Holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to a share, on a ratable
basis, such divedends as may by the board of Directors out of funds, legally
available therefor. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company,
after payment to creditors, the assets of the Company will be divided pro
rata on a per share basis among the holders of the Common Stock.
Each share of Common Stock entitles the holders thereof to one vote.
Holders of Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights which means that
the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of
Directors can elect all of the Directors if they choose to do so, and, in such
event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any
Directors. The Common Stock has no preemptive, subscription or conversion
rights and is not redeemable by the Company.
Over-the-Counter Market
The Company's Common Stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the
symbol "GTMI". The Company's shares of common Stock were delisted from
NASDAQ in July, 1995. The Company is presently engaged in the reapplication
process to gain new listing on the NASDAQ System. If for any reason the
Common Stock is not accepted for inclusion on the NASDAQ System, then in such
case the Company's Common Stock would be expected to continue to the traded in
the over-the-counter markets through he "pink sheets" or the NASD's OTC Bulletin
Board. In the event the Common Stock were not included in the NASDAQ System,
the Company's Common Stock would be covered by a Securities and Exchange
Commission rule that imposes additional sales practice requirements on
broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established
customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in
excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or
annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse). For
transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written
agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may
affect the ability of the broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and
may also affect the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell their shares
in the secondary market. The ability of the Company to secure a symbol on the
NASDAQ System does not imply that a meaningful trading market in its Common
Stock will ever develop.
Transfer Agent
The Transfer Agent for the shares of Common Stock is American Stock
Transfer & Trust Company, 40 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005.
LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters in connection with the securities being offered
hereby will be passed upon by the Company by Bruce Brashear, Esq., 920 North
West 8th Avenue, Suite A, Gainesville, Florida 32601.

31, 1994, as set for thin their reports thereon included therein and
incorporated herein by reference, Such consolidated financial statements are
incorporated herein by reference in reliance upon such reports given upon the
authority of such firms as experts in accounting and auditing.
INDEMNIFICATION
The Company has authority under section 607.0850 of the Florida Business
Corporation Act to indemnify its directors and officers to the extent provided
for in such statute. The provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act
that authorize indemnification do not eliminate the duty of cat of a director
and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other
forms of non-monetary relief remain available under Florida Law. In addition,
each director will continue to be subject to liability for all(a) violations
of criminal laws unless a director has reasonable cause to believe his
conduct is lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful, (b) deriving an improper personal benefit from a transaction, (c)
voting for or assenting to any unlawful distribution and (d) willful misconduct
or conscious disregard for the best interest of the Company in a proceeding by
or in right of the Company to cure a judgment in its favor or in a proceeding
by or the right of a shareholder. The statute does not affect a directors'
responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities lass.
The effect of the foregoing is to require the company to indemnify the officers
and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons in the
official capacity if such person acted in good faith and in the manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unethical.

(a)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 include any
additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933 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) File a post-effective amendment to remove any of the securities that
remain unsold at the end of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the

registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such 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,

by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant 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.
