ITEM 4.           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
                  -------------------------

Common Stock

         Common stockholders share dividends on a proportionate basis, as may be
declared by the Board of Directors. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of Puradyn, after payment to creditors, Puradyn's assets will be divided
proportionately on a per share basis among the holders of our common stock.

         Each share of our common stock has one vote. Holders of our common
stock do not have cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a
plurality of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all of
the directors. In that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be
able to elect any directors. Puradyn's by-laws provide that a majority of the
outstanding shares of our common stock are a quorum to transact business at a
stockholders' meeting. Our common stock has no preemptive, subscription or
conversion rights. Also, our common stock is not redeemable.

Preferred Stock

         The Company is authorized to issue 500,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value $.001 per share, issuable in such series and bearing such voting,
dividend, conversion, liquidation and other rights and preferences as the Board
of Directors may determine. As of the date hereof, no shares have been issued or
are outstanding. The preferred stock is so-called "Blank Check" preferred stock,
which means that the Board of Directors of the Company, in its sole discretion,
will be able to issue the shares of preferred stock in one or more series of
classes having such terms, designations and preferences as determined by the
Board of Directors and without authorization or confirmation by the stockholders
of the Company.

ITEM 5.           INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
                  --------------------------------------

Experts

                  Durland & Company, CPA's, P.A., independent certified public
accountants, have audited our consolidated financial statements included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, as set forth in
their report, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus and
elsewhere in the registration statement. Our financial statements are
incorporated by reference in reliance on Durland & Company, CPAs, P.A. report,
given on their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.

                           request as a director, officer, employee, agent,
                           partner or trustee of another corporation,
                           partnership, joint venture, trust or other

                           Extent -- Derivative Suits. In case of a threatened,
                  pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the

                  his holding a position named in paragraph A, the Corporation
                  shall indemnify him if he satisfied the standard in paragraph
                  C, for expenses (including attorneys' fees but excluding
                  amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred
                  by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the
                  action or suit.

                           reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
                           best interests of the Corporation, including, but not
                           limited to, the taking of any and all actions in
                           connection with the Corporation's response to any
                           tender offer or any offer or proposal of another
                           party to engage in a Business Combination and

                           any claim, issue or matter as to which he has been
                           adjudged liable to the Corporation unless (and only
                           to the extent that) the court in which the suit was
                           brought shall determine, upon application, that
                           despite the adjudication but in view of all the
                           circumstances, he is fairly and reasonably entitled
                           to indemnity for such expenses a the court shall deem
                           proper.

                  threatened, pending or completed suit, action or proceeding
                  (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative),
                  other than a suit by or in the right of the Corporation,
                  together hereafter referred to as a Nonderivative suit,
                  against a person named in paragraph A by reason of his holding
                  a position named in paragraph A, the Corporation shall
                  indemnify him if he satisfied the standard in paragraph E, for
                  amounts actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
                  with the defense or settlement of the nonderivative suit,
                  including, but not limited to (i) expenses (including
                  attorneys' fees), (ii) amounts paid in settlement, (iii)
                  judgments, and (iv) fines.

         3.       Standard-- Nonderivative Suits. In case of a nonderivative
suit, a person named in paragraph A shall be indemnified only if:

                  he is successful on the merits or otherwise; or

                  (1)      he acted in good faith in the transaction which is
                           the subject of the nonderivative suit and in a manner
                           he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
                           the best interests of the Corporation, including, but
                           not limited to, the taking of any and all actions in
                           connection with the Corporation's response to any
                           tender offer or any offer or proposal of another
                           party to engage in a Business Combination not
                           approved by the Board of Directors and, with respect
                           to any criminal actions or proceeding, he had no

                           lo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in itself,
                           create a presumption that the person failed to
                           satisfy the standard of this subparagraph E(2).

                           Determination That Standard Has Been Met. A

                  satisfied may be made by a court, or, except as stated in
                  subparagraph C(2) (second sentence), the determination may be
                  made by:

<PAGE>


                  (0)      the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a
                           quorum consisting of directors of the Corporation
                           who were not parties to the action, suit or
                           proceeding; or

                  independent legal counsel (appointed by a majority of the
                  disinterested directors of the Corporation, whether or not
                  a quorum) in a written opinion; or

                  (1)      the stockholders of the Corporation.

                           Proration. Anyone making a determination under
                  paragraph F may determine that a person has met the standard
                  as to some matters but not as to others, and may reasonably
                  prorate amounts to be indemnified.

         5. Advance Payment. The Corporation shall pay in advance any expenses
(including attorneys' fees) which may become subject to indemnification under
paragraphs A through G if:

                  the Board of Directors authorizes the specific payment; and

                  (1)      the person receiving the payment undertakes in
                           writing to repay the same if it is ultimately
                           determined that he is not entitled to indemnification
                           by the Corporation under paragraphs A through G.

                           Nonexclusive. The indemnification and advance payment
                  of expenses provided by paragraphs A through H shall not be
                  exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be
                  entitled by law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
                  disinterested directors, or otherwise.

         6. Continuation. The indemnification provided by this Article X shall
be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and the persons entitled to
indemnification thereunder, and any repeal or modification of this Article X
shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any
state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding
theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state
of facts. The indemnification and advance payment provided by paragraphs A
through H shall continue as to a person who has ceased to hold a position named
in paragraph A and shall inure to his heirs, executors and administrators.

                           Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
                  insurance on behalf of any person who holds or who has held
                  any position named in paragraph A, against any liability
                  incurred by him in any such position, or arising out of his
                  status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have
                  power to indemnify him against such liability under paragraphs
                  A through H.

have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law. If the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is amended, or other Delaware

         Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
         fiduciary duty as a director, except: (i) for any breach of the
         director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii)
         for acts or omissions that are not in good faith or that involve
         intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under
         Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or
         (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived any improper
         personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law of the State of
         Delaware or other Delaware law is amended or enacted after the date of
         filing of this Certificate to further eliminate or limit the personal
         liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the
         Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
         permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as
         amended, or such other Delaware law. Any repeal or modification of the
         foregoing paragraph by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not
         adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the
         Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification."

         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


                                       8

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.

         The above indemnification provisions notwithstanding, the Company is
aware that insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons
controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has
been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as express in the act and is
therefore unenforceable.

                  ------------

                  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;




                                       9
<PAGE>



                  (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.
                           Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
                           decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
                           total dollar value of securities offered would not
                           exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
                           from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
                           offering range may be reflected in the form of
                           prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
                           424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
                           and price represent no more than a 20% change in
                           maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
                           "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
                           effective 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.

         Provided, however, that paragraph (1)(i) and (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.

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

         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


                                       10

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.

         Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Boynton Beach and the State of Florida, on the 4th
day of October, 2000.

ITEM 4.           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
                  -------------------------

Common Stock

         Common stockholders share dividends on a proportionate basis, as may be
declared by the Board of Directors. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of Puradyn, after payment to creditors, Puradyn's assets will be divided
proportionately on a per share basis among the holders of our common stock.

         Each share of our common stock has one vote. Holders of our common
stock do not have cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a
plurality of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all of
the directors. In that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be
able to elect any directors. Puradyn's by-laws provide that a majority of the
outstanding shares of our common stock are a quorum to transact business at a
stockholders' meeting. Our common stock has no preemptive, subscription or
conversion rights. Also, our common stock is not redeemable.

Preferred Stock

         The Company is authorized to issue 500,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value $.001 per share, issuable in such series and bearing such voting,
dividend, conversion, liquidation and other rights and preferences as the Board
of Directors may determine. As of the date hereof, no shares have been issued or
are outstanding. The preferred stock is so-called "Blank Check" preferred stock,
which means that the Board of Directors of the Company, in its sole discretion,
will be able to issue the shares of preferred stock in one or more series of
classes having such terms, designations and preferences as determined by the
Board of Directors and without authorization or confirmation by the stockholders

                  -----------------------------------------

         Article X of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provide for indemnification of officers and directors. The
specific provision of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Amendment related
to such indemnification is as follows:

                           Persons. The Corporation shall indemnify, to the
                  extent provided in paragraphs B, D or F:

                  any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or
                  agent of the Corpora tion; and

                  (1)      any person who serves or served at the Corporation's
                           request as a director, officer, employee, agent,
                           partner or trustee of another corporation,
                           partnership, joint venture, trust or other
                           enterprise.

                           Extent -- Derivative Suits. In case of a threatened,
                  pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
                  Corporation against a person named in paragraph A by reason of
                  his holding a position named in paragraph A, the Corporation
                  shall indemnify him if he satisfied the standard in paragraph
                  C, for expenses (including attorneys' fees but excluding
                  amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred
                  by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the
                  action or suit.

         2.       Standard-- Derivative Suits. In case of a threatened, pending
or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation, a person
named in paragraph A shall be indemnified only if:

                  he is successful on the merits or otherwise; or

                  (1)      he acted in good faith in the transaction which is
                           the subject of the suit or action, and in a manner he
                           reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
                           best interests of the Corporation, including, but not
                           limited to, the taking of any and all actions in
                           connection with the Corporation's response to any
                           tender offer or any offer or proposal of another
                           party to engage in a Business Combination and
                           approved by the Board of Directors.

                                       5
However, he shall not be indemnified in respect of
                           any claim, issue or matter as to which he has been
                           adjudged liable to the Corporation unless (and only
                           to the extent that) the court in which the suit was
                           brought shall determine, upon application, that
                           despite the adjudication but in view of all the
                           circumstances, he is fairly and reasonably entitled
                           to indemnity for such expenses a the court shall deem
                           proper.

                           Extent -- Nonderivative Suits. In case of a
                  threatened, pending or completed suit, action or proceeding
                  (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative),
                  other than a suit by or in the right of the Corporation,
                  together hereafter referred to as a Nonderivative suit,
                  against a person named in paragraph A by reason of his holding
                  a position named in paragraph A, the Corporation shall
                  indemnify him if he satisfied the standard in paragraph E, for
                  amounts actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
                  with the defense or settlement of the nonderivative suit,
                  including, but not limited to (i) expenses (including
                  attorneys' fees), (ii) amounts paid in settlement, (iii)
                  judgments, and (iv) fines.

         3.       Standard-- Nonderivative Suits. In case of a nonderivative
suit, a person named in paragraph A shall be indemnified only if:

                  he is successful on the merits or otherwise; or

                  (1)      he acted in good faith in the transaction which is
                           the subject of the nonderivative suit and in a manner
                           he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
                           the best interests of the Corporation, including, but
                           not limited to, the taking of any and all actions in
                           connection with the Corporation's response to any
                           tender offer or any offer or proposal of another
                           party to engage in a Business Combination not
                           approved by the Board of Directors and, with respect
                           to any criminal actions or proceeding, he had no
                           reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
                           The termination of a nonderivative suit by judgment,
                           order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of no
                           lo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in itself,
                           create a presumption that the person failed to
                           satisfy the standard of this subparagraph E(2).

                           Determination That Standard Has Been Met. A
                  determination that the standard of paragraph C or E has been
                  satisfied may be made by a court, or, except as stated in
                  subparagraph C(2) (second sentence), the determination may be
                  made by:

                                       6
(0)      the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a
                           quorum consisting of directors of the Corporation
                           who were not parties to the action, suit or
                           proceeding; or

                  independent legal counsel (appointed by a majority of the
                  disinterested directors of the Corporation, whether or not
                  a quorum) in a written opinion; or

                  (1)      the stockholders of the Corporation.

                           Proration. Anyone making a determination under
                  paragraph F may determine that a person has met the standard
                  as to some matters but not as to others, and may reasonably
                  prorate amounts to be indemnified.

         5. Advance Payment. The Corporation shall pay in advance any expenses
(including attorneys' fees) which may become subject to indemnification under
paragraphs A through G if:

                  the Board of Directors authorizes the specific payment; and

                  (1)      the person receiving the payment undertakes in
                           writing to repay the same if it is ultimately
                           determined that he is not entitled to indemnification
                           by the Corporation under paragraphs A through G.

                           Nonexclusive. The indemnification and advance payment
                  of expenses provided by paragraphs A through H shall not be
                  exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be
                  entitled by law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
                  disinterested directors, or otherwise.

         6. Continuation. The indemnification provided by this Article X shall
be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and the persons entitled to
indemnification thereunder, and any repeal or modification of this Article X
shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any
state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding
theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state
of facts. The indemnification and advance payment provided by paragraphs A
through H shall continue as to a person who has ceased to hold a position named
in paragraph A and shall inure to his heirs, executors and administrators.

                           Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
                  insurance on behalf of any person who holds or who has held
                  any position named in paragraph A, against any liability
                  incurred by him in any such position, or arising out of his
                  status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have
                  power to indemnify him against such liability under paragraphs
                  A through H.

                                       7
7. Intention and Savings Clause. It is the intention of this Article X
to provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and this Article X shall be
interpreted accordingly. If this Article X or any portion hereof shall be
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the
Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director, officer, employee, and
agent of the Corporation as to costs, charges, and expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settle with respect to
any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or
investigative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation to the
full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article X that shall not
have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law. If the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is amended, or other Delaware
law is enacted, to permit further or additional indemnification of the persons
defined in this Article X A, then the indemnification of such persons shall be
to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, as so amended, or such other Delaware law.

         Article XI of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation sets forth the limitations on directors" liability as follows:

         "A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the
         Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
         fiduciary duty as a director, except: (i) for any breach of the
         director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii)
         for acts or omissions that are not in good faith or that involve
         intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under
         Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or
         (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived any improper
         personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law of the State of
         Delaware or other Delaware law is amended or enacted after the date of
         filing of this Certificate to further eliminate or limit the personal
         liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the
         Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
         permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as
         amended, or such other Delaware law. Any repeal or modification of the
         foregoing paragraph by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not
         adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the
         Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification."

         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

                                       8
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.

         The above indemnification provisions notwithstanding, the Company is
aware that insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons
controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has
been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as express in the act and is
therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 9.           UNDERTAKINGS
                  ------------

                  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;

                                       9
(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.
                           Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
                           decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
                           total dollar value of securities offered would not
                           exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
                           from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
                           offering range may be reflected in the form of
                           prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
                           424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
                           and price represent no more than a 20% change in
                           maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
                           "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
                           effective 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.

         Provided, however, that paragraph (1)(i) and (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.

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

         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

                                       10
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.
