such laws.
ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Reporting Person acquired an option to purchase 3,000,000 shares of
Common Stock pursuant to the authorization of a committee appointed by the Board
of Directors of the Company. The Reporting Person anticipates that if he
exercises all or any portion of such option, he will use personal funds to
acquire the optioned Common Stock, although circumstances may be such at the
time of his exercise that the Reporting Person may elect to borrow or otherwise
procure amounts necessary to exercise such option.
ITEM 4. Purpose of Transaction
In April and May 1999, the Reporting Person sold a total of 399,653
shares of Common Stock on the open market pursuant to the exemption provided for
by Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, for an aggregate net sales price of
approximately $12,228. The Reporting Person undertook these sales transactions
for the purpose of raising proceeds to satisfy certain personal expenses.
In addition, on July 1, 1999, pursuant to the authorization of a
committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Reporting

per-share exercise price for the optioned shares is $.033. The option is fully
vested, and all 3,000,000 optioned shares may be acquired at any time until the

Company's business.
The Reporting Person intends to hold his shares of Common Stock for
investment, and does not have any present plans or proposals which relate to or

the preceding sentence, the Reporting Person recognizes the possibility of
future circumstances that might induce him to sell more of his remaining shares

as the Company's business and prospects, other developments concerning the
Company, other business opportunities available to the Reporting Person,
developments with respect to the business of the Reporting Person, and general
economic and stock market conditions, including, but not limited to, the market
price of the Common Stock. The Reporting Person may, depending on other relevant
factors, acquire additional shares of Common Stock in open market or privately
negotiated transactions, dispose of all or a portion of his holdings of shares
of Common Stock or change his intention with respect to any or all of the
matters referred to in this Item.
