PART II INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3. Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.

     The Company became subject to the informational requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act") on April 19, 2000, and,
accordingly, files periodic reports and other information with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Reports, proxy statements and other
information concerning the Company filed with the Commission may be inspected
and copies may be obtained (at prescribed rates) at the Commission's Public
Reference Section, Room 1024, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549.

     The following documents filed by the Company are incorporated in this
Registration Statement by reference:

(a)  The Company's Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the
     fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, as filed with the Commission;

(b)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act
     since December 31, 2001, the end of the Registrant's last fiscal year; and

(c)  A description of the Registrant's Common Stock is set forth in Exhibit 4.5
     hereto.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the 1934 Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which
deregisters all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof
from the date of filing of such documents.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

     Not Applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     The validity of the shares of common stock registered in this Registration
Statement has been passed upon for the Registrant by Ruffa & Ruffa, P.C., whose
opinion is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1. The Registrant has issued 250,000
shares of common stock to each of William Ruffa and William P. Ruffa, officers
of Ruffa & Ruffa, P.C., as partial payment for legal services rendered.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Company's Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws and Section 78.751 of the
Nevada Revised Statutes provide for indemnification of the Company's officers
and directors in certain situations where they might otherwise personally incur
liability, judgments, penalties, fines and




<PAGE>





expenses in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become
parties because of their position with the Company.

      Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides for indemnification
of the Company's officers and directors in certain situations where they might
otherwise personally incur liability, judgments, penalties, fines and
es in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become
parties because of their position with the Company.

Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides as follows:

     "NRS 78.751 Authorization required for discretionary indemnification;
advancement of expenses; limitation on indemnification and advancement of
expenses.

1. Any discretionary indemnification under NRS 78.7502 unless ordered by a court
or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as
authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the
director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The
determination must be made:

     (a) By the stockholders;

     (b) By the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of
directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;

     (c) If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not
parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; or

     (d) If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action,
suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.

2. The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the
corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the
corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the
action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to
advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or
officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

3. The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a
court pursuant to this section:

     (a) Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of
incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise, for either an action in his official capacity or an
action in another capacity while holding his office, except that
indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the
advancement of

                                       3
<PAGE>

expenses made pursuant to subsection 2, may not be made to or on behalf of any
director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or
omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the
law and was material to the cause of action.

     (b) Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person."

     To the extent that indemnification may be related to liability arising
under the Securities Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission takes the
position that indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not Applicable

Item 8. Exhibits.

     For a list of all exhibits filed or included as part of this Registration
Statement, see "Index to Exhibits" at the end of this Registration Statement.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

         (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933;

         (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
     effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
     represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
     Registration Statement;

         (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
     material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
     provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
     and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required by those
     paragraphs to be included in a post-effective amendment is contained in
     periodic reports filed or furnished by the Registrant pursuant to Section
     13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
     incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the

                                       4
<PAGE>

securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

     The Company's Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws and Section 78.751 of the
Nevada Revised Statutes provide for indemnification of the Company's officers
and directors in certain situations where they might otherwise personally incur
liability, judgments, penalties, fines and
expenses in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become
parties because of their position with the Company.

      Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides for indemnification
of the Company's officers and directors in certain situations where they might
otherwise personally incur liability, judgments, penalties, fines and
es in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become
parties because of their position with the Company.

Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides as follows:

     "NRS 78.751 Authorization required for discretionary indemnification;
advancement of expenses; limitation on indemnification and advancement of
expenses.

1. Any discretionary indemnification under NRS 78.7502 unless ordered by a court
or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as
authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the
director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The
determination must be made:

     (a) By the stockholders;

     (b) By the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of
directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;

     (c) If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not
parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; or

     (d) If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action,
suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.

2. The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the
corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the
corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the
action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to
advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or
officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

3. The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a
court pursuant to this section:

     (a) Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of
incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise, for either an action in his official capacity or an
action in another capacity while holding his office, except that
indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the
advancement of

                                       3
expenses made pursuant to subsection 2, may not be made to or on behalf of any
director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or
omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the
law and was material to the cause of action.

     (b) Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person."

     To the extent that indemnification may be related to liability arising
under the Securities Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission takes the
position that indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not Applicable

Item 8. Exhibits.

     For a list of all exhibits filed or included as part of this Registration
Statement, see "Index to Exhibits" at the end of this Registration Statement.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

         (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933;

         (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
     effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
     represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
     Registration Statement;

         (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
     material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
     provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
     and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required by those
     paragraphs to be included in a post-effective amendment is contained in
     periodic reports filed or furnished by the Registrant pursuant to Section
     13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
     incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the

                                       4
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

                                       5
