Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. 


     No funds were used by the reporting person. The acquisition of 
beneficial ownership in the shares reflected in this report were either

exercisable options to purchase 433,333 shares of common stock),

beneficial ownership of 203,500 shares of common stock; however, this 
amount was reported in error --the actual number of shares beneficially

split in March, 1996). Since

stock (of which 26,316 shares have been transferred to a third party).
