INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference into this Registration
Statement the documents listed in (a) through (c) below:

         (a)      The Registrant's latest annual report filed pursuant to
         Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or
         either (I) the latest prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
         the Securities Act of 1933 that contains audited financial statements
         for the Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have
         been filed or (II) the Registrant's effective registration statement on
         Form 10 filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 containing
         audited financial statements for the Registrant's latest fiscal year;

         (b)      All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
         the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of the fiscal year
         covered by the Registrant document referred to in (a) above;

         (c)      The description of the class of securities to be offered which
         is contained in a registration statement filed under Section 12 of the
         Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including any amendment or report
         filed for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered
have been sold or which deregisters all such securities then remaining unsold,
shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Under the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of
Registrant, each person who is or was a director or officer of Registrant shall
be indemnified by Registrant as of right to the full extent permitted or
authorized by the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

          Under such law, to the extent that such person is successful on the
merits of defense of a suit or proceeding brought against him by reason of the
fact that he is a director or officer of Registrant, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in connection
with such action.
<PAGE>
           If unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal
suit is settled, such a person shall be indemnified under such law against both
(1) expenses (including  attorneys' fees) and (2) judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of Registrant, and with
respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful.

           If unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of
Registrant, or if such suit is settled, such a person shall be indemnified under
such law only against expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in the
defense or settlement of such suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of
Registrant except that if such a person is adjudicated to be liable in such suit
for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to Registrant, he
cannot be made whole even for expenses unless the court determines that he is
fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

            The officers and directors of the Company are covered by officers'
and directors' liability insurance.  The policy coverage is $25,000,000, which
includes reimbursement for costs and fees.  There is a maximum aggregate
deductible for each loss under the policy of $100,000.  The Company has entered
into Indemnification Agreements with each of its officers and directors.  The
Agreements provide for reimbursement for all direct and indirect costs of any
type or nature whatsoever (including attorneys' fees and related disbursements)
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with either the investigation,
defense or appeal of a Proceeding, as defined, including amounts paid in
settlement by or on behalf of an Indemnitee.

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;
<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;

                           (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)(l)(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 purposes 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 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 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 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 controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against policy as expressed in the Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

authorized, in Jericho, New York on the 13th day of February, 1995.

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference into this Registration
Statement the documents listed in (a) through (c) below:

         (a)      The Registrant's latest annual report filed pursuant to
         Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or
         either (I) the latest prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
         the Securities Act of 1933 that contains audited financial statements
         for the Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have
         been filed or (II) the Registrant's effective registration statement on
         Form 10 filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 containing
         audited financial statements for the Registrant's latest fiscal year;

         (b)      All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
         the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of the fiscal year
         covered by the Registrant document referred to in (a) above;

         (c)      The description of the class of securities to be offered which
         is contained in a registration statement filed under Section 12 of the
         Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including any amendment or report
         filed for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered
have been sold or which deregisters all such securities then remaining unsold,
shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Under the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of
Registrant, each person who is or was a director or officer of Registrant shall
be indemnified by Registrant as of right to the full extent permitted or
authorized by the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

          Under such law, to the extent that such person is successful on the
merits of defense of a suit or proceeding brought against him by reason of the
fact that he is a director or officer of Registrant, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in connection
with such action.
If unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal
suit is settled, such a person shall be indemnified under such law against both
(1) expenses (including  attorneys' fees) and (2) judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of Registrant, and with
respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful.

           If unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of
Registrant, or if such suit is settled, such a person shall be indemnified under
such law only against expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in the
defense or settlement of such suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of
Registrant except that if such a person is adjudicated to be liable in such suit
for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to Registrant, he
cannot be made whole even for expenses unless the court determines that he is
fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

            The officers and directors of the Company are covered by officers'
and directors' liability insurance.  The policy coverage is $25,000,000, which
includes reimbursement for costs and fees.  There is a maximum aggregate
deductible for each loss under the policy of $100,000.  The Company has entered
into Indemnification Agreements with each of its officers and directors.  The
Agreements provide for reimbursement for all direct and indirect costs of any
type or nature whatsoever (including attorneys' fees and related disbursements)
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with either the investigation,
defense or appeal of a Proceeding, as defined, including amounts paid in
settlement by or on behalf of an Indemnitee.

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;

                           (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)(l)(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 purposes 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 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 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 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 controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against policy as expressed in the Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
