$.001 per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per

COMMON STOCK
The $.001 par value Common Stock of the Registrant is being registered
hereby. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on
all matters properly submitted to the stockholders for their vote. Except as
may be limited by the terms and provisions of any class of preferred stock which
may be authorized by the Board of Directors in the future, holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividend declared by the Board of
Directors from time to time, out of funds legally available for such purpose.
Subject to the liquidation preference of any class of preferred stock which may
be authorized by the Board in the future, holders of Common Stock are entitled
to receive on a pro rata basis all remaining assets of the Registrant available
for distribution to the holders of Common Stock in the event of liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Registrant.
Holders of the Common Stock are not entitled to cumulative votes for
the election of the directors, and, as a result, the holders of a majority of

Common Stock has no conversion rights, liquidation preferences, redemption
