hereof:

               (a)    The Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB on March
                      15, 2000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

               (d)    The Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB was
                      filed on August 14, 2000.

               (e)    The Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB was
                      filed on May 16, 2000.

                      Equity Stock ("Common Stock") on Form 8-A filed on

               All reports and other documents filed by the Corporation pursuant
to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended ("Exchange Act"), subsequent to the date of this Registration
Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment hereto which
indicates that all securities offered hereunder have been sold



                                       2
<PAGE>   3

or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of filing
of such documents.

               For purposes of this Registration Statement, any statement
contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated herein by
reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a
statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed comment which also
is or is deemed to be incorporated herein by reference modifies or supersedes
such statement in such document. Any statement so modified or superseded shall
not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.

Item 4.        Description of Securities.

               The class of securities to be offered is registered under Section
12 of the Exchange Act. Therefore, a description of the Common Stock required by
Item 202 of Regulation S-K is not required.

Item 5.        Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

               None.

Item 6.        Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

               Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that a
corporation may indemnify any person made a party or threatened to be made a
party to any type of proceeding (other than certain actions by or in right of
the corporation) because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, against expenses,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with such proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation; or in a criminal proceeding, if he or she had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Expenses incurred
by an officer or director (or other employee or agents as deemed appropriate by
the board of directors) in defending civil or criminal proceedings may be paid
by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon
receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if
it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified
by the corporation. To indemnify a party, the corporation must determine that
the party met the applicable standards of conduct.

               The Company's articles and bylaws permit indemnification of all
officers, directors, employees and agents in this manner. The articles also
provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a
civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation as
they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or
proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or
officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation.

Item 9.        Undertakings.

               (a)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                      (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;

                             (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the
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;

                             (iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration
Statement;

provided however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement.

                      (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.

                      (3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.

               (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of
the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

               (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities 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 is against public policy as expressed



                                       5
<PAGE>   6

in the Securities 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.

                                   SIGNATURES

               Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf of the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Kansas City, State of Missouri, on this 20th day of
December, 2000.
