  Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

       Item 5 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

       (a)  Acquiport directly owns 6,110,265 Shares which
  constitute 27.0% of the outstanding 22,609,850
  outstanding shares as reported to the Reporting Persons
  by the Issuer.

            Because of its position as the sole stockholder
  of Acquiport, the Common Fund may, pursuant to Section
  13(d)(3) of the Act, be deemed to be the beneficial owner
  of the Shares owned directly by Acquiport.

            To the best of the knowledge of each of the
  Reporting Persons, other than as set forth above, none of
  the persons named in Item 2 hereof is the beneficial
  owner of any Shares.

       (b)  Although the 6,110,265 Shares are owned of
  record by Acquiport, the Common Fund, as the sole
  shareholder of Acquiport Two Corporation, beneficially
  owns such 6,110,265 Shares.  In its capacity as the sole
  stockholder of Acquiport, the Common Fund may be deemed
  to share power to vote or to direct the vote and to
  dispose or to direct the disposition of the Shares owned
  directly by Acquiport.

       (c)  Except as set forth in Item 4 above, to the
  best of the knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons,
  none of the persons named in response to paragraph (a) of
  this Item 5 has effected any other transactions in Shares

       (d)  Each of the Reporting Persons affirms that no
  person other than such Reporting Persons has the right to
  receive or the power to direct the receipt of
  distributions with respect to, or the proceeds from the
  sale of, the Shares owned by such Reporting Person.

       (e)  It is inapplicable for the purposes herein to
  state the date on which the Reporting Persons ceased to
  be the owners of more than five percent (5%) of the
  outstanding Shares.
