<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">The class of securities to be offered hereby is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's authorized capitalization is 100 million shares of common stock, $ .001 par value, of which 46,502,478 shares of common stock are issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2007.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">Holders of the Company's Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to vote at any meeting of shareholders. Shares of Common Stock do not carry cumulative voting rights. The Company's board of directors has authority, without action by the Company's shareholders, to issue all or any portion of the authorized but un-issued shares of Common Stock, which would reduce the percentage ownership of the Company of its shareholders and which would dilute the book value of the Common Stock.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">Shareholders of the Company have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the shares of Common Stock are entitled to share equally in corporate assets after the satisfaction of all liabilities. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the board of directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. During the last two fiscal years the Company has not paid cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not anticipate that it will pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.</P>

<P style="margin:0px"><B>ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS</B></P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">Our bylaws permit us to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. Delaware Statutes authorize indemnification when a person is or was made a party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, at the request of the corporation, and if such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by him or her to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal proceeding, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. If it is determined that the conduct of such person meets these standards, he or she may be indemnified for judgments, settlements, penalties, fines (including an excise tax assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan), and expenses (including counsel fees) actually and reasonably incurred with respect to a proceeding.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">If such a proceeding is brought by or in the right of the corporation (i.e. a derivative suit), such person may be indemnified against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expenses of litigating the proceeding to a conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by him or her to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. There can be no indemnification with respect to any matter as to which such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation; however, a court may, in such case, allow such indemnification of such person for such expenses as the court deems proper.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; text-indent:48px">Where such person is successful in any such proceeding, he or she is entitled to be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her. In all other cases, indemnification is made by the corporation upon determination by it that indemnification of such person is proper because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct.</P>

The Company's board of directors has authority, without action by the Company's shareholders, to issue all or any portion of the authorized but un-issued shares of Common Stock, which would reduce the percentage ownership of the Company of its shareholders and which would dilute the book value of the Common Stock.
Shareholders of the Company have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the shares of Common Stock are entitled to share equally in corporate assets after the satisfaction of all liabilities. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the board of directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. During the last two fiscal years the Company has not paid cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not anticipate that it will pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
Not applicable.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Our bylaws permit us to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. Delaware Statutes authorize indemnification when a person is or was made a party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, at the request of the corporation, and if such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by him or her to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal proceeding, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. If it is determined that the conduct of such person meets these standards, he or she may be indemnified for judgments, settlements, penalties, fines (including an excise tax assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan), and expenses (including counsel fees) actually and reasonably incurred with respect to a proceeding.
If such a proceeding is brought by or in the right of the corporation (i.e. a derivative suit), such person may be indemnified against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expenses of litigating the proceeding to a conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by him or her to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. There can be no indemnification with respect to any matter as to which such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation; however, a court may, in such case, allow such indemnification of such person for such expenses as the court deems proper.
Where such person is successful in any such proceeding, he or she is entitled to be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her. In all other cases, indemnification is made by the corporation upon determination by it that indemnification of such person is proper because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct.
We maintain officer or director insurance.

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
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 that 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 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
3
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.
