</TABLE>
(1) This Registration Statement relates to the resale of 4,082,907 shares of
Common Stock issued prior to the filing date hereof and the resale of up to
1,841,800 shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of currently
outstanding Options and Warrants.
(2) Pursuant to Rule 457(c), the fee calculation is based on the average of
the high and low prices of the Registrant's Shares on the Small Capital Company
listings of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation
system on April 21, 1997. The Registrant paid fees of $6,093 on 4,416,907
shares offered in the Registration Statement on Form S-3 which was originally
filed on September 13, 1996 (calculated based a proposed maximum offering price
per share of $4.00, the average of the high and low prices of the Registrant's
shares on the Small Capital Company listings of the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation system on August 16, 1996) of which
4,269,907 shares were offered in Amendment Number One to the Registration
Statement on Form S-3 which was effective on November 15,1996. Therefore, with
this Amendment Number Two, the Registration Fee is an additional $545
(calculated based on the additional number of shares to be registered,
5,924,707-4,269,907= 1,654,800 shares at a proposed maximum offering price per
share of $0.95) .
THE REGISTRANT HEREBY AMENDS THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON SUCH DATE OR DATES
AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO DELAY ITS EFFECTIVE DATE UNTIL THE REGISTRANT SHALL FILE
A FURTHER AMENDMENT WHICH SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT
SHALL THEREAFTER BECOME EFFECTIVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8(A) OF THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNTIL THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL
BECOME EFFECTIVE ON SUCH DATE AS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, ACTING
PURSUANT TO SUCH SECTION 8(A), MAY DETERMINE.

PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT AND STATEMENT REGARDING DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY
