               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.

         The following documents are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement:

         (a)      The registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB, or, if
the financial statements therein are more current, the registrant's latest

         (b)      All other reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Sections

         All documents subsequently filed by the registrant pursuant to Sections

incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to
be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to the
extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed

<PAGE>   3
         Reference is hereby made to the provisions of the Nevada General
Corporation Law which provides for indemnification of directors and officers
under certain circumstances.

         The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that
the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of
Nevada, indemnify any director, officer, employee and agent of the corporation
against expenses incurred by such person by reason of the fact that he serves or
has served the corporation in such capacity.

Indemnification under the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws is
nonexclusive of any other right such persons may have under statute, agreement,
bylaw or action of the Board of Directors or shareholders of the corporation.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

         Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

         The exhibits to the registration statement are listed in the Exhibit

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 the 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 the
                  registration statement;

                           (iii)    to include any material information with
                  respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed
                  in the registration statement or any material change to such
                  information in the 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


                                       3
<PAGE>   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 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 undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that,
for 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 Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (c)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to
deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the
prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that
is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and
meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be
presented by Article 3 or Regulation S-X is not set forth in the prospectus, to
deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent
or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by
reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.

                  (d)      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons or the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in
Item 6, 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 proceedings) 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.

shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

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

                  (b)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that,
for 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 Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (c)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to
deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the
prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that
is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and
meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be
presented by Article 3 or Regulation S-X is not set forth in the prospectus, to
deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent
or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by
reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.

                  (d)      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons or the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in
Item 6, 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 proceedings) 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.
