Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         None.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         EVCI's certificate of incorporation and by-laws provide that EVCI will
indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person made or threatened
to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or such
person's testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of EVCI
or serves or served at the request of EVCI as a director, officer or employee of
another corporation or entity.

         EVCI has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and
officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in EVCI's certificate
of incorporation and by-laws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify
EVCI's directors and officers for certain expenses (including advancing expenses
for attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any
such person in any action or proceedings, including any action by or in the
right of EVCI, arising out of such person's services as a director or officer of
EVCI, any subsidiary of EVCI or any other company or enterprise to which the
person provides services at the request of EVCI. In addition, EVCI has insurance
providing indemnification for EVCI's directors and officers for certain
liabilities. EVCI believes that these indemnification provisions and agreements
and related insurance are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors
and officers.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         None.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         EVCI's certificate of incorporation and by-laws provide that EVCI will
indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person made or threatened
to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or such
person's testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of EVCI
or serves or served at the request of EVCI as a director, officer or employee of
another corporation or entity.

         EVCI has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and
officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in EVCI's certificate
of incorporation and by-laws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify
EVCI's directors and officers for certain expenses (including advancing expenses
for attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any
such person in any action or proceedings, including any action by or in the
right of EVCI, arising out of such person's services as a director or officer of
EVCI, any subsidiary of EVCI or any other company or enterprise to which the
person provides services at the request of EVCI. In addition, EVCI has insurance
providing indemnification for EVCI's directors and officers for certain
liabilities. EVCI believes that these indemnification provisions and agreements
and related insurance are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors
and officers.
