ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
In November 1989, the Registrant issued and sold 600,000 Units
aggregating 600,000 shares of Common Stock and 600,000 Common
Stock Purchase Warrants under a S-18 Registration Statement
filed with the Commission on November 2, 1989. The Registrant
subsequently issued and sold an additional 90,000 Units to its
Underwriters in accordance with and over-allotment option in its
Underwriting Agreement, dated November 1, 1989, and filed as
Exhibit 1.3 to Form S-18. The terms of the Common Stock
Purchase Warrants are stipulated by a Warrant Agreement ("the
Agreement"), dated August 29, 1989, and filed as Exhibit 4.10 to
the Registration Statement. The Agreement originally prescribed
the "Warrant Expiration Date" as the earlier of the Redemption
Date or November 16, 1992. The "Warrant Expiration Date" has
been extended twice and currently is prescribed as the earlier
of the Redemption Date or November 16, 1996.
On October 30, 1996, the Registrant's Directors unanimously
adopted a resolution in accordance with Section 16 of the
Agreement to redefine the Warrant Expiration Date as the earlier
of the Redemption Date or November 16, 1998, thereby extending
the purchase option by two years.
