Company Common Stock is incorporated by reference pursuant to Item 3.c. above.


Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.


Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Article 2.02-1 of the Texas Business Corporation Act provides that the
Company may indemnify a person who was, is, or is threatened to be made a named
defendant or respondent in a proceeding because the person is or was a director
or officer only if it is determined in accordance with such article that the
person: (1) conducted himself in good faith; (2) reasonably believed: (a) in the
case of conduct in his official capacity, that his conduct was in the
corporation's best interests; and (b) in all other cases, that his conduct was
at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests; and (3) in the case of
any criminal proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

         Except to the extent permitted by such article, a director or officer
may not be indemnified under this article in respect of a proceeding: (1) in
which the person is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was
improperly received by him, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action
taken in the person's official capacity; or (2) in which the person is found
liable to the corporation.

         A person may be indemnified under such article against judgments,
penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements, and
reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with the
proceeding; but if the person is found liable to the corporation or is found
liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by the person,
the indemnification (1) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by
the person in connection with the proceeding and (2) shall not be made in
respect of any proceeding in which the person shall have been found liable for
willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the
corporation.

         A determination of indemnification under such article must be made: (1)
by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who at the time of the
vote are not named defendants or


                                      -3-
<PAGE>


respondents in the proceeding; (2) if such a quorum cannot be obtained, by a
majority vote of a committee of the board of directors, designated to act in the
matter by a majority vote of all directors, consisting solely of two or more
directors who at the time of the vote are not named defendants or respondents in
the proceeding; (3) by special legal counsel selected by the board of directors
or a committee of the board by vote as set forth above in (1) or (2) or, if such
a quorum cannot be obtained and such a committee cannot be established, by a
majority vote of all directors; and (4) by the shareholders in a vote that
excludes the shares held by directors who are named defendants or respondents in
the proceeding.

         Authorization of indemnification and determination as to reasonableness
of expenses must be made in the same manner as the determination that
indemnification is permissible, except that if the determination that
indemnification is permissible is made by special legal counsel, authorization
of indemnification and determination as to reasonableness of expenses must be
made in the manner specified by Subsection (3) above for the selection of
special legal counsel. A provision contained in the articles of incorporation,
the bylaws, a resolution of shareholders or directors, or an agreement that
makes mandatory the indemnification permitted under this article shall be deemed
to constitute authorization of indemnification in the manner required by this
section even though such provision may not have been adopted or authorized in
the same manner as the determination that indemnification is permissible.

         A corporation shall indemnify a director or officer against reasonable
expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding in which he is a named
defendant or respondent because he is or was a director or officer if he has
been wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the
proceeding.

         A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or another
arrangement on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee,
or agent of the corporation or who is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee,
employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee
benefit plan, or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in such a capacity or arising out of his status as such a
person, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against that liability under this article. Without limiting the power of the
corporation to procure or maintain any kind of insurance or other arrangement, a
corporation may, for the benefit of persons indemnified by the corporation, (1)
create a trust fund; (2) establish any form of self-insurance; (3) secure its
indemnity obligation by grant of a security interest or other lien on the assets
of the corporation; or (4) establish a letter of credit, guaranty, or surety
arrangements. The insurance or other arrangement may be procured, maintained, or
established within the corporation or with any insurer or other person deemed
appropriate by the board of directors regardless of whether all or part of the
stock or other securities of the insurer or other person are owned in whole or
part by the corporation. In the absence of fraud, the judgment of the board of
directors as to the terms and conditions of the insurance or other arrangement
and the identity of the insurer or other persons participating in an arrangement
shall be conclusive and the insurance or arrangement shall not be voidable and
shall not subject the directors approving the insurance or arrangement to
liability, on any ground, regardless of whether directors participating in the
approval are beneficiaries of the insurance or arrangement.

<PAGE>


         The articles of incorporation of a corporation may restrict the
circumstances under which the corporation is required or permitted to indemnify
a person under such article.

         Provisions regarding indemnification of officers and directors of the
Company are contained in Article XI of the Company's Articles of Incorporation,
as amended (Exhibit 3.1 to the registration statement on Form SB-2 filed with
the SEC on November 16, 1997), and Article VIII of the Company's Amended and
Restated Bylaws (Exhibit 3.2 to the registration statement on Form SB-2 filed
with the SEC on November 16, 1997).

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a)   Rule 415 Offering.

      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:


                                      -5-
<PAGE>


            (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

            (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;

            Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
            apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and
            the information required to be included in a post-effective
            amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed
            by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
            Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
            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 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)   Filings Incorporating Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Reference.

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


(h)   Statement Required in Connection with Filing of Registration Statement on
      Form S-8.

      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


                                      -6-
<PAGE>


      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.

Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8, and the Registrant has duly caused
this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,

               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The following documents are incorporated herein by reference:

a. Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Surrey, Inc. (the "Company") for the fiscal

                                      -2-

         The common stock, without par value (the "Common Stock"), of the

Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The description of the
Company Common Stock is incorporated by reference pursuant to Item 3.c. above.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Article 2.02-1 of the Texas Business Corporation Act provides that the
Company may indemnify a person who was, is, or is threatened to be made a named
defendant or respondent in a proceeding because the person is or was a director
or officer only if it is determined in accordance with such article that the
person: (1) conducted himself in good faith; (2) reasonably believed: (a) in the
case of conduct in his official capacity, that his conduct was in the
corporation's best interests; and (b) in all other cases, that his conduct was
at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests; and (3) in the case of
any criminal proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

         Except to the extent permitted by such article, a director or officer
may not be indemnified under this article in respect of a proceeding: (1) in
which the person is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was
improperly received by him, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action
taken in the person's official capacity; or (2) in which the person is found
liable to the corporation.

         A person may be indemnified under such article against judgments,
penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements, and
reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with the
proceeding; but if the person is found liable to the corporation or is found
liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by the person,
the indemnification (1) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by
the person in connection with the proceeding and (2) shall not be made in
respect of any proceeding in which the person shall have been found liable for
willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the
corporation.

         A determination of indemnification under such article must be made: (1)
by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who at the time of the
vote are not named defendants or

                                      -3-
respondents in the proceeding; (2) if such a quorum cannot be obtained, by a
majority vote of a committee of the board of directors, designated to act in the
matter by a majority vote of all directors, consisting solely of two or more
directors who at the time of the vote are not named defendants or respondents in
the proceeding; (3) by special legal counsel selected by the board of directors
or a committee of the board by vote as set forth above in (1) or (2) or, if such
a quorum cannot be obtained and such a committee cannot be established, by a
majority vote of all directors; and (4) by the shareholders in a vote that
excludes the shares held by directors who are named defendants or respondents in
the proceeding.

         Authorization of indemnification and determination as to reasonableness
of expenses must be made in the same manner as the determination that
indemnification is permissible, except that if the determination that
indemnification is permissible is made by special legal counsel, authorization
of indemnification and determination as to reasonableness of expenses must be
made in the manner specified by Subsection (3) above for the selection of
special legal counsel. A provision contained in the articles of incorporation,
the bylaws, a resolution of shareholders or directors, or an agreement that
makes mandatory the indemnification permitted under this article shall be deemed
to constitute authorization of indemnification in the manner required by this
section even though such provision may not have been adopted or authorized in
the same manner as the determination that indemnification is permissible.

         A corporation shall indemnify a director or officer against reasonable
expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding in which he is a named
defendant or respondent because he is or was a director or officer if he has
been wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the
proceeding.

         A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or another
arrangement on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee,
or agent of the corporation or who is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee,
employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee
benefit plan, or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in such a capacity or arising out of his status as such a
person, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against that liability under this article. Without limiting the power of the
corporation to procure or maintain any kind of insurance or other arrangement, a
corporation may, for the benefit of persons indemnified by the corporation, (1)
create a trust fund; (2) establish any form of self-insurance; (3) secure its
indemnity obligation by grant of a security interest or other lien on the assets
of the corporation; or (4) establish a letter of credit, guaranty, or surety
arrangements. The insurance or other arrangement may be procured, maintained, or
established within the corporation or with any insurer or other person deemed
appropriate by the board of directors regardless of whether all or part of the
stock or other securities of the insurer or other person are owned in whole or
part by the corporation. In the absence of fraud, the judgment of the board of
directors as to the terms and conditions of the insurance or other arrangement
and the identity of the insurer or other persons participating in an arrangement
shall be conclusive and the insurance or arrangement shall not be voidable and
shall not subject the directors approving the insurance or arrangement to
liability, on any ground, regardless of whether directors participating in the
approval are beneficiaries of the insurance or arrangement.

                                      -4-
The articles of incorporation of a corporation may restrict the
circumstances under which the corporation is required or permitted to indemnify
a person under such article.

         Provisions regarding indemnification of officers and directors of the
Company are contained in Article XI of the Company's Articles of Incorporation,
as amended (Exhibit 3.1 to the registration statement on Form SB-2 filed with
the SEC on November 16, 1997), and Article VIII of the Company's Amended and
Restated Bylaws (Exhibit 3.2 to the registration statement on Form SB-2 filed
with the SEC on November 16, 1997).

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a)   Rule 415 Offering.

      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:

                                      -5-
(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

            (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;

            Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
            apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and
            the information required to be included in a post-effective
            amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed
            by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
            Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
            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 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)   Filings Incorporating Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Reference.

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

(h)   Statement Required in Connection with Filing of Registration Statement on
      Form S-8.

      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

                                      -6-
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.

                     [remainder of page intentionally blank]

                                      -7-

this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
