Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

     The Company is subject to the informational requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and, accordingly, files
periodic reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"). Reports, proxy statements and other information
concerning the Company filed with the SEC may be inspected and copies may be

          the year ended December 31, 2003 and the unaudited financial
          statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2004,
          included as exhibits to the Registrant's final prospectus filed with
          the SEC on December 16, 2004 under Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act
          of 1933;

          (b) the Registrant's quarterly report for the period ended March 31,
          2004 on Form 10-QSB filed with the SEC on May 13, 2004, the
          Registrant's quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2004 on

          (c) the description of the Registrant's common stock, no par value,
          contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form SB-2/A
          filed with the SEC on December 7, 2004.

     In addition, all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the SEC
pursuant to Sections 12, 13(a), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the
effective date of this Registration Statement, but prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have
been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be
deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be
part hereof from the respective date of filing of such documents.

     Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for
purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained
herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is incorporated or
is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modified or superseded such
statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed,
except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration
Statement.

     Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Article VI of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides:

     Subject to the following, a director or officer of the Corporation shall
     not be personally liable to the Corporation or its shareholders for damages
     for breach of any duty owed to the Corporation or its shareholders. The
     preceding sentence shall not relieve a director or officer from liability
     for any breach of duty based upon an act or omission (i) in breach of such
     person's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its shareholders, (ii) not
     in good faith or involving a knowing violation of law, or (iii) resulting
     in receipt by such person of an improper personal benefit. If the New
     Jersey Business Corporation Act is amended to authorize corporate action
     further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or
     officers, then the liability of a director or officer or both of the
     Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted
     by the New Jersey Business Corporation Act as so amended. Any amendment to
     this Certificate of Incorporation, or change in law which authorizes this
     paragraph shall not adversely affect any then existing right or protection
     of a director or officer of the Corporation.


Article V of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides:

     The Corporation shall indemnify its officers, directors, employees and
     agents and former officers, directors, employees and agents, and any other
     persons serving at the request of the Corporation as an officer, director,
     employee or agent of another corporation, association, partnership, joint
     venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
     fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in
     connection with any pending or threatened action, suit, or proceeding,
     whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, with respect to
     which such officer, director, employee, agent or other person is a party,
     or is threatened to be made a party, to the full extent permitted by the
     New Jersey Business Corporation Act. The indemnification provided herein
     (i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which any person
     seeking indemnification may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, or
     vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
     action in his or her official capacity and as to action in any other
     capacity, and (ii) shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and
     the administrators of any such person. The Corporation shall have the
     power, but shall not be obligated, to purchase and maintain insurance on
     behalf of any person or persons enumerated above against any liability
     asserted against or incurred by them or any of them arising out of their
     status as corporate directors, officers, employees, or agents whether or
     not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify them against such
     liability under the provisions of this article.

     The Corporation shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to any
     person referred to in this article the funds necessary for payment of
     expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with any
     action, suit or proceeding referred to in this article, upon receipt of a
     written undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount(s)
     if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or
     officer establishes that the director's or officer's acts or omissions (i)
     constitute a breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the
     corporation or its shareholders, (ii) were not in good faith, (iii)
     involved a knowing violation of law, (iv) resulted in the director or
     officer receiving an improper personal benefit, or (v) were otherwise of
     such a character that New Jersey law would require that such amount(s) be
     repaid.

          of Shareholders, as filed with the SEC on April 25, 2001.

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 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;

     (2) That, for 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 post-effective amendment any of
the securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (b) The  undersigned  company  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
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 the 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 company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the company 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 company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer of controlling person of the company 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 company 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.

     In addition, all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the SEC
pursuant to Sections 12, 13(a), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the

deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be
part hereof from the respective date of filing of such documents.

     Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for
purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained
herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is incorporated or
is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modified or superseded such
statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed,
except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration
Statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

     Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

                                        3
Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Article VI of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides:

     Subject to the following, a director or officer of the Corporation shall
     not be personally liable to the Corporation or its shareholders for damages
     for breach of any duty owed to the Corporation or its shareholders. The
     preceding sentence shall not relieve a director or officer from liability
     for any breach of duty based upon an act or omission (i) in breach of such
     person's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its shareholders, (ii) not
     in good faith or involving a knowing violation of law, or (iii) resulting
     in receipt by such person of an improper personal benefit. If the New
     Jersey Business Corporation Act is amended to authorize corporate action
     further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or
     officers, then the liability of a director or officer or both of the
     Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted
     by the New Jersey Business Corporation Act as so amended. Any amendment to
     this Certificate of Incorporation, or change in law which authorizes this
     paragraph shall not adversely affect any then existing right or protection
     of a director or officer of the Corporation.

Article V of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides:

     The Corporation shall indemnify its officers, directors, employees and
     agents and former officers, directors, employees and agents, and any other
     persons serving at the request of the Corporation as an officer, director,
     employee or agent of another corporation, association, partnership, joint
     venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
     fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in
     connection with any pending or threatened action, suit, or proceeding,
     whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, with respect to
     which such officer, director, employee, agent or other person is a party,
     or is threatened to be made a party, to the full extent permitted by the
     New Jersey Business Corporation Act. The indemnification provided herein
     (i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which any person
     seeking indemnification may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, or
     vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
     action in his or her official capacity and as to action in any other
     capacity, and (ii) shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and
     the administrators of any such person. The Corporation shall have the
     power, but shall not be obligated, to purchase and maintain insurance on
     behalf of any person or persons enumerated above against any liability
     asserted against or incurred by them or any of them arising out of their
     status as corporate directors, officers, employees, or agents whether or
     not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify them against such
     liability under the provisions of this article.

     The Corporation shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to any
     person referred to in this article the funds necessary for payment of
     expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with any
     action, suit or proceeding referred to in this article, upon receipt of a
     written undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount(s)
     if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or
     officer establishes that the director's or officer's acts or omissions (i)
     constitute a breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the
     corporation or its shareholders, (ii) were not in good faith, (iii)
     involved a knowing violation of law, (iv) resulted in the director or
     officer receiving an improper personal benefit, or (v) were otherwise of
     such a character that New Jersey law would require that such amount(s) be
     repaid.

                                       4
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed.

          definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A for the 2001 Annual Meeting
          of Shareholders, as filed with the SEC on April 25, 2001.

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 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;

     (2) That, for 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 post-effective amendment any of
the securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (b) The  undersigned  company  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
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 the time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                       5
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the company 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 company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer of controlling person of the company 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 company 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.
