ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

         Under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized
capital stock of the Company consists of 60 million shares, of which 50 million
shares are Common Stock and 10 million shares are preferred stock. As of the
date of this Prospectus, the Company had outstanding 4,630,780 shares of Common
Stock and 118,750 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 300,000 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 50,000 shares of
Series D Preferred Stock held of record by 59 persons, and 130,000 shares of
Series E Preferred Stock. The Company has reserved 218,483 shares for issuance
upon exercise of outstanding Options, 1,671,993 shares for issuance upon
exercise of Warrants, 3,194,994 shares for issuance upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock.

         The following summary description of the securities of the Company is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation, a
copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus is a part.

COMMON STOCK

         The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share with
respect to all matters required by law to be submitted to stockholders of the
Company. The holders of Common Stock have the sole right to vote, except as
otherwise provided by law or by the Company's Certificate, including provisions
governing any preferred stock. The Common Stock does not have any cumulative
voting, preemptive, subscription or conversion rights. Election of directors and
other general shareholder action requires the affirmative vote of a majority of
shares represented at a meeting in which a quorum is represented. The
outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock offered
hereby will be, upon payment therefor as contemplated herein, validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.

         Subject to the rights of any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the
holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In
the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining available for distribution to them after payment or provision for all
liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of any preferred stock then
outstanding.

                                     II-1
<PAGE>
PREFERRED STOCK

         The Board of Directors is authorized, without action by the holders of
the Common Stock, to provide for the issuance of the preferred stock in one or
more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each series and
to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each
such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. This
includes, among other things, voting rights, conversion privileges, dividend
rates, redemption rights, sinking fund provisions and liquidation rights which
shall be superior to the Common Stock. The issuance of one or more series of the
preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the
Common Stock and could have the effect of discouraging or making more difficult
any attempt by a person or group to attain control of the Company. The Company
has no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock.

         SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK. In April 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 200,000 shares of series A
cumulative preferred stock ("Series A Preferred Stock"). In April 1996, an
aggregate of 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $400,000 to Mr. Hollenbeck and an aggregate of 18,750
shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued to an unaffiliated third party.
The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $4 per share, plus
any accrued unpaid dividends, is redeemable by the Company at a redemption price
of $4 per share, plus accrued unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, after
October 1, 1996 the holder can force redemption by the Company upon the same
redemption terms that the Company possesses, and does not have any voting
rights. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of
Common Stock at the lessor or (i) $1.50 or (ii) 84% of the closing bid price on
the day prior to conversion (subject to adjustment).

       SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK. In April 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 300,000 shares of series B
cumulative preferred stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"). In April 1996, an
aggregate of 300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $600,000. The Series B Preferred Stock has a
liquidation preference of $2 per share, plus any accrued unpaid dividends, is
redeemable by the Company at a redemption price of $2 per share, plus accrued
unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, and does not have any voting rights.
The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible by the holders in shares
of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) $2.00 or (ii) 84% of the closing bid price
on the day prior to conversion (subject to adjustment). The shares of Series B
Preferred Stock automatically convert, at the above referenced conversion rate,
into shares of Common Stock in April 1998.

       SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK. In March 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of series C
cumulative preferred stock ("Series C Preferred Stock"). Effective March 1996,
an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $700,000. Upon the closing of the Westmark-Medical
Industries Agreement, the 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock will be
redeemed by the Company and, for purposes of this Prospectus, are not deemed
outstanding.

       SERIES D PREFERRED STOCK. In August 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of series D
convertible preferred stock ("Series D Preferred Stock"). In August 1996, an
aggregate of 200,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $1,000,000. The Series D Preferred Stock pays interest
quarterly at 10% per annum. The Series D Preferred Stock has a liquidation
preference of $5 per share, is redeemable by the Company and does not have any
voting rights. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock are convertible by the
holders in shares of Common Stock at 100% of the closing bid price on the day of
conversion.

       SERIES E PREFERRED STOCK. In July 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 130,000 shares of series E
convertible preferred stock ("Series E Preferred Stock"). In July 1996, an
aggregate of 130,00 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $1,300,000. The 130,000 shares of Series E Preferred
Stock will be converted by the holder at the price of $.45 per share, for the
issuance of 2,888,889 shares of Common Stock upon the closing of the
Westmark-GTB Agreement, and for purposes of this Prospectus are not deemed
outstanding.

       SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK. In August 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of series F
convertible

                                     II-2
<PAGE>
preferred stock ("Series F Preferred Stock"). The Series F Preferred Stock has a
liquidation preference of $5 per share, is redeemable by the Company and does
not have any voting rights. The shares of Series F Preferred Stock are
convertible by the holders in shares of Common Stock at the greater of (i) $1.00
or (ii) the average closing bid price for the five days prior to conversion
(subject to adjustment).

WARRANTS

       There are warrants outstanding authorizing the holders to purchase an
aggregate of 1,671,993 shares of Common Stock, currently exercisable and
expiring between one and eight years from the date of this Prospectus at
exercise prices between $1.00 and $9.00.

ITEM 6.INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

       A. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or upon a plea of NOLO CONTENDERE or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

       B. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.

       C. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (A) and (B), or in defense
of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection therewith.

       D. Any indemnification under subsections (A) and (B) (unless ordered by a
court) shall 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 because he has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in subsections (A) and (B). Such determination shall be
made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action,
suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) if there are no such
directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a
written opinion, or (iii) by the stockholders.

       E. Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or
director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the

                                      II-3
<PAGE>
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if
it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation. Such expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so
paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems
appropriate.

       F. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.

       G. The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against
him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as
such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against such liability under the Certificate of Incorporation.

       H. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, this Article shall, unless otherwise provided when
authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director,
officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a person.

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;
                            and

                                     II-4
<PAGE>
                     iii.   To include any additional or changed material
                            information with respect to the plan of
                            distribution.

              (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 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 undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the
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.

ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

         Under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized
capital stock of the Company consists of 60 million shares, of which 50 million
shares are Common Stock and 10 million shares are preferred stock. As of the
date of this Prospectus, the Company had outstanding 4,630,780 shares of Common
Stock and 118,750 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 300,000 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 50,000 shares of
Series D Preferred Stock held of record by 59 persons, and 130,000 shares of
Series E Preferred Stock. The Company has reserved 218,483 shares for issuance
upon exercise of outstanding Options, 1,671,993 shares for issuance upon
exercise of Warrants, 3,194,994 shares for issuance upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock.

         The following summary description of the securities of the Company is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation, a
copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus is a part.

COMMON STOCK

         The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share with
respect to all matters required by law to be submitted to stockholders of the
Company. The holders of Common Stock have the sole right to vote, except as
otherwise provided by law or by the Company's Certificate, including provisions
governing any preferred stock. The Common Stock does not have any cumulative
voting, preemptive, subscription or conversion rights. Election of directors and
other general shareholder action requires the affirmative vote of a majority of
shares represented at a meeting in which a quorum is represented. The
outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock offered
hereby will be, upon payment therefor as contemplated herein, validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.

         Subject to the rights of any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the
holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In
the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining available for distribution to them after payment or provision for all
liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of any preferred stock then
outstanding.

                                     II-1
PREFERRED STOCK

         The Board of Directors is authorized, without action by the holders of
the Common Stock, to provide for the issuance of the preferred stock in one or
more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each series and
to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each
such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. This
includes, among other things, voting rights, conversion privileges, dividend
rates, redemption rights, sinking fund provisions and liquidation rights which
shall be superior to the Common Stock. The issuance of one or more series of the
preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the
Common Stock and could have the effect of discouraging or making more difficult
any attempt by a person or group to attain control of the Company. The Company
has no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock.

         SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK. In April 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 200,000 shares of series A
cumulative preferred stock ("Series A Preferred Stock"). In April 1996, an
aggregate of 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $400,000 to Mr. Hollenbeck and an aggregate of 18,750
shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued to an unaffiliated third party.
The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $4 per share, plus
any accrued unpaid dividends, is redeemable by the Company at a redemption price
of $4 per share, plus accrued unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, after
October 1, 1996 the holder can force redemption by the Company upon the same
redemption terms that the Company possesses, and does not have any voting
rights. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of
Common Stock at the lessor or (i) $1.50 or (ii) 84% of the closing bid price on
the day prior to conversion (subject to adjustment).

       SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK. In April 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 300,000 shares of series B
cumulative preferred stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"). In April 1996, an
aggregate of 300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $600,000. The Series B Preferred Stock has a
liquidation preference of $2 per share, plus any accrued unpaid dividends, is
redeemable by the Company at a redemption price of $2 per share, plus accrued
unpaid dividends to the date of redemption, and does not have any voting rights.
The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible by the holders in shares
of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) $2.00 or (ii) 84% of the closing bid price
on the day prior to conversion (subject to adjustment). The shares of Series B
Preferred Stock automatically convert, at the above referenced conversion rate,
into shares of Common Stock in April 1998.

       SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK. In March 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of series C
cumulative preferred stock ("Series C Preferred Stock"). Effective March 1996,
an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $700,000. Upon the closing of the Westmark-Medical
Industries Agreement, the 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock will be
redeemed by the Company and, for purposes of this Prospectus, are not deemed
outstanding.

       SERIES D PREFERRED STOCK. In August 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of series D
convertible preferred stock ("Series D Preferred Stock"). In August 1996, an
aggregate of 200,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $1,000,000. The Series D Preferred Stock pays interest
quarterly at 10% per annum. The Series D Preferred Stock has a liquidation
preference of $5 per share, is redeemable by the Company and does not have any
voting rights. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock are convertible by the
holders in shares of Common Stock at 100% of the closing bid price on the day of
conversion.

       SERIES E PREFERRED STOCK. In July 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 130,000 shares of series E
convertible preferred stock ("Series E Preferred Stock"). In July 1996, an
aggregate of 130,00 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were issued with an
aggregate stated value of $1,300,000. The 130,000 shares of Series E Preferred
Stock will be converted by the holder at the price of $.45 per share, for the
issuance of 2,888,889 shares of Common Stock upon the closing of the
Westmark-GTB Agreement, and for purposes of this Prospectus are not deemed
outstanding.

       SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK. In August 1996, the Board of Directors
established a series of shares setting forth the preferences, rights and
limitations and authorizing the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of series F
convertible

                                     II-2
preferred stock ("Series F Preferred Stock"). The Series F Preferred Stock has a
liquidation preference of $5 per share, is redeemable by the Company and does
not have any voting rights. The shares of Series F Preferred Stock are
convertible by the holders in shares of Common Stock at the greater of (i) $1.00
or (ii) the average closing bid price for the five days prior to conversion
(subject to adjustment).

WARRANTS

       There are warrants outstanding authorizing the holders to purchase an
aggregate of 1,671,993 shares of Common Stock, currently exercisable and
expiring between one and eight years from the date of this Prospectus at
exercise prices between $1.00 and $9.00.

ITEM 6.INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

       A. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or upon a plea of NOLO CONTENDERE or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

       B. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.

       C. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (A) and (B), or in defense
of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection therewith.

       D. Any indemnification under subsections (A) and (B) (unless ordered by a
court) shall 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 because he has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in subsections (A) and (B). Such determination shall be
made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action,
suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) if there are no such
directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a
written opinion, or (iii) by the stockholders.

       E. Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or
director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the

                                      II-3
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if
it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation. Such expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so
paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems
appropriate.

       F. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.

       G. The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against
him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as
such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against such liability under the Certificate of Incorporation.

       H. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, this Article shall, unless otherwise provided when
authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director,
officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a person.

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;
                            and

                                     II-4
iii.   To include any additional or changed material
                            information with respect to the plan of
                            distribution.

              (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 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 undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the
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
