Part I.     Financial Information-Item 1. Financial
            Statements-Note 2-Basis of Presentation

      The third paragraph contained under Note 2 to the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is hereby amended to
read as follows:

            Net loss per common share is computed using the
            weighted average number of common shares and common
            share equivalents assumed to be outstanding during
            the period. Common share equivalents consist of the
            Company's common shares issuable upon exercise of
            stock options and stock purchase warrants. The
            computation of net loss per common share does not
            reflect common share equivalents that are anti-
            dilutive.

Part I.     Financial Information-Item 1. Financial
            Statements-Note 5-Common Stock Offering

      The third paragraph contained under Note 5 of the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is hereby deleted.

Part I.     Financial Information-Management's Discussion
            and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
            of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The fourth paragraph contained under the caption "Liquidity
and Capital Resources" is hereby amended to read as follows:

            The aggregate net proceeds to the Company in such
            transactions were in the estimated amount of
            approximately $12 million (approximately $10.2
            million in the Regulation S Transaction, and
            approximately $2.0 million in the Private
            Placement, in the aggregate net of the Preferred
            Stock Payments). Net expenses do not reflect non-
            cash expenses represented by the Commission Shares
            but reflect finder's fees in the amount of
            $199,000, which were applied to the acquisition of
            shares in the Regulation S Transaction.<PAGE>
