    REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

    We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "REGISTRATION
STATEMENT") filed by you with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about
June 26, 1997 in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, of a total of 1,000,000 shares of your Common Stock (the
"SHARES") reserved for issuance under the 1993 Stock Plan (Amended and Restated
February 18, 1997). As your counsel in connection with this transaction, we have
examined the proceedings taken and are familiar with the proceedings proposed to
be taken by you in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares.

    It is our opinion that upon conclusion of the proceedings being taken or 
contemplated by us, as your counsel, to be taken prior to the issuance of the 
Shares, and upon completion of the proceedings being taken in order to permit 
such transactions to be carried out in accordance with the securities laws of 
the various states where required, the Shares, when issued and sold in the 
manner described in the Registration Statement, will be legally and validly 
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

    We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement, including the Prospectus constituting a part thereof,
and in any amendment thereto.

                                  Very truly yours,
