ITEM 4. PURPOSES OF THE TRANSACTIONS

Common Stock, together with options to purchase same, is investment without a
view, presently or ultimately, to acquiring control of the Issuer. The Reporting

Schedule 13D
CUSIP No. 249827205 Page 5 of 6 Pages
(4) Exercisable at $4.50 per share.
(5) Exercisable at $6.75 per share.
(6) Exercisable at $0.85 per share.
(7) Consists of 8,334 shares of series B convertible preferred stock, 66,667
shares of series C convertible preferred stock and 33,334 shares of series
D convertible preferred stock each of which is convertible, on a
one-for-one basis, into Common Stock.
On July 18, 2000 the Reporting Person purchased from the Issuer 66,667 of the
Issuer's series E units, at the rate of $0.75 per unit, for a total investment
of $50,000. Concurrently, three institutional investors purchased 600,000 series
E units, at the rate of $0.75 per unit, for a total investment of $450,000.
The series E units each consist of one share of Common Stock and one and one
tenth (1.1) warrants to purchase one share of Common Stock at $0.85 per share
("series E warrants"). Thus, the Common Stock and series E warrants components
of the series E units purchased by the Reporting Person number 66,667 and
73,334, respectively.
The series E warrants will expire at the close of business on July 18, 2005. The
Issuer has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission relative to the Common Stock component of the series E units
and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the series E warrants.
Concurrently with the Issuer's receipt of the foregoing investments, an
institutional investor converted $375,000 of the principal of the Issuer's
series C bonds into "modified" series E units, each consisting one share of
series C convertible preferred stock and one and one tenth (1.1) series E
warrants, at the rate of $0.75 per unit. Previously, several investors,
including Mr. Quilty, had converted a total of $625,000 of the principal of the
Issuer's series C and series D bonds into series C and series D units,
respectively ("Prior Conversions").
Pursuant to the terms of the series C and series D instruments, effective
September 1, 2000 the Issuer has adjusted the terms of the Prior Conversions
such that they mirror the terms of the above described series C bond conversion.
As a result of this adjustment, the Issuer has cancelled all previously issued
series C and series D warrants and has issued to Mr. Quilty the following: (1)
21,212 shares of series C preferred stock; (2) 8,642 shares of series D
preferred stock; and (3) 110,000 series E warrants.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
None.
ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS
