  Item 4.        Description of Securities.  

       Not applicable.  

  Item 5.        Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.  

       Not applicable.

  Item 6.        Indemnification of Directors and Officers.  

       Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act
  empowers a corporation, subject to certain limitations, to
  indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding by
  reason of the fact that he or she was or is a director, officer,
  employee or agent of the corporation, against liability and
  expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
  connection with such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if
  such party acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably
  believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
  corporation, and, with respect to a criminal action or
  proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct
  to have been unlawful.

     Article VII of the Registrant's Bylaws provides for
  indemnification to present and past directors and officers of the
  Registrant against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
  settlement actually and reasonably incurred as a result of such
  person's being a party to, or threatened to be made a party to 
  (which shall include the giving of testimony or similar
  involvement), any threatened, pending or completed action, suit
  or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
  director or officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the
  request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or
  agent of another enterprise, if he or she acted in good faith and
  in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
  to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any
  action or criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to
  believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  Notwithstanding the
  foregoing, such indemnification will not be available in an
  action by or in right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in
  its favor if such person has been adjudged to be liable to the
  Registrant unless and only to the extent that the court in which
  such proceeding was brought or any other court of competent
  jurisdiction 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

                              2 <PAGE> 
<PAGE>






  indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. 
  Article VII further permits the Registrant to purchase and
  maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a
  director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant or is or
  was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director,
  officer, employee or agent of another enterprise against
  liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her
  in such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such,
  whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify
  such person against such liability under the provisions of
  Article VII.

     Article VII further provides that the indemnification rights
  provided under that Article shall be in addition to the
  indemnification right provided pursuant to the Florida Business
  Corporation Act, and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
  rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be
  entitled.

     The Registrant has purchased a Directors and Officers
  indemnity insurance policy.

               fiscal year ended December 31, 1995

     25        Power of Attorney (contained on signature page of
               this Registration Statement)

  Item 9.        Undertakings.  

     (a)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:  




                              3 <PAGE> 
<PAGE>






      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;  

          (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)(l)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do
  not apply if 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 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)  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 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)  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

                              4 <PAGE> 
<PAGE>






  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.  

       Not applicable.  

  Item 5.        Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.  

       Not applicable.

  Item 6.        Indemnification of Directors and Officers.  

       Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act
  empowers a corporation, subject to certain limitations, to
  indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding by
  reason of the fact that he or she was or is a director, officer,
  employee or agent of the corporation, against liability and
  expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
  connection with such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if
  such party acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably
  believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
  corporation, and, with respect to a criminal action or
  proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct
  to have been unlawful.

     Article VII of the Registrant's Bylaws provides for
  indemnification to present and past directors and officers of the
  Registrant against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
  settlement actually and reasonably incurred as a result of such
  person's being a party to, or threatened to be made a party to 
  (which shall include the giving of testimony or similar
  involvement), any threatened, pending or completed action, suit
  or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
  director or officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the
  request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or
  agent of another enterprise, if he or she acted in good faith and
  in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
  to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any
  action or criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to
  believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  Notwithstanding the
  foregoing, such indemnification will not be available in an
  action by or in right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in
  its favor if such person has been adjudged to be liable to the
  Registrant unless and only to the extent that the court in which
  such proceeding was brought or any other court of competent
  jurisdiction 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

                              2
indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. 
  Article VII further permits the Registrant to purchase and
  maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a
  director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant or is or
  was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director,
  officer, employee or agent of another enterprise against
  liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her
  in such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such,
  whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify
  such person against such liability under the provisions of
  Article VII.

     Article VII further provides that the indemnification rights
  provided under that Article shall be in addition to the
  indemnification right provided pursuant to the Florida Business
  Corporation Act, and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
  rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be
  entitled.

     The Registrant has purchased a Directors and Officers
  indemnity insurance policy.

               Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
               fiscal year ended December 31, 1995

     5         Opinion of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP

     23.1      Consent of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP

     23.2      Consent of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP (contained in
               Exhibit 5)  

     25        Power of Attorney (contained on signature page of
               this Registration Statement)

  Item 9.        Undertakings.  

     (a)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:  

                              3
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;  

          (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)(l)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do
  not apply if 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 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)  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 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)  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

                              4
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.  

                              5
