Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
------------------------------------------------ 

         The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") are incorporated herein by reference:

         (a)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 10, Registration
No. 000-22803 (the "Registration Statement") containing audited financial
statements of Registrant for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

         (b)  The description of the Registrant's Common Stock which is
contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 10 filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), 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 Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-
effective amendment to the registration statement which indicates that all of
the shares of Common Stock offered have been sold or which deregisters all of
such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such
documents, except as to any portion of any future annual or quarterly report to
stockholders or document which is not deemed filed under such provisions. For
the purposes of this registration statement, any statement contained in a
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be
deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a statement contained
herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to
be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes 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such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration statement.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.
----------------------------------------------- 

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
-------------------------------------------------- 

         (a)  As permitted by the General Corporation Law of Nevada, the
Registrant's amended and restated Articles of Incorporation provide that,
subject to any restrictions set forth in the Registrant's By-laws, it shall
indemnify and hold its directors, officers, and others serving at the request of
the Registrant as a director or officer of another corporation and those
individuals serving as the Registrant's representative in a partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, harmless and free from liability, expenses
and loss (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or to be
paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such individual to the
fullest extent permitted under the laws of the state of Nevada for any claims
against such individual arising out of the performance of his duty on behalf of
the Registrant.

         (b)  The Registrant's By-laws give the Registrant the ability to
provide indemnification for each of its employees and agents to the same extent
as its directors and officers upon action by its Board of Directors. The
Registrant's By-laws also permit the Registrant to enter into indemnity
agreements with any director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the
Registrant. The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each
of its directors and officers, which provide for the indemnification of such
directors and officers against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties
and amounts paid in settlement to the fullest extent permitted by law. Finally,
the Registrant's By-laws permit the Registrant to maintain indemnification
insurance for its directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries and agents. The
Registrant does not currently maintain any indemnification 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.
              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 the 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;

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(l)(i) and (a)(l)(ii) of this section do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3 and
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission 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.

         (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 that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act maybe 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
Securities 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 Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

         (a)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 10, Registration
No. 000-22803 (the "Registration Statement") containing audited financial
statements of Registrant for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

         (b)  The description of the Registrant's Common Stock which is
contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 10 filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), 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 Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-
effective amendment to the registration statement which indicates that all of
the shares of Common Stock offered have been sold or which deregisters all of
such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such
documents, except as to any portion of any future annual or quarterly report to
stockholders or document which is not deemed filed under such provisions. For
the purposes of this registration statement, any statement contained in a
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be
deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a statement contained

Item 4.  Description of Securities.
---------------------------------- 

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
----------------------------------------------- 

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
-------------------------------------------------- 

         (a)  As permitted by the General Corporation Law of Nevada, the
Registrant's amended and restated Articles of Incorporation provide that,
subject to any restrictions set forth in the Registrant's By-laws, it shall
indemnify and hold its directors, officers, and others serving at the request of
the Registrant as a director or officer of another corporation and those
individuals serving as the Registrant's representative in a partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, harmless and free from liability, expenses
and loss (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or to be
paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such individual to the
fullest extent permitted under the laws of the state of Nevada for any claims
against such individual arising out of the performance of his duty on behalf of
the Registrant.

         (b)  The Registrant's By-laws give the Registrant the ability to
provide indemnification for each of its employees and agents to the same extent
as its directors and officers upon action by its Board of Directors. The
Registrant's By-laws also permit the Registrant to enter into indemnity
agreements with any director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the
Registrant. The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each
of its directors and officers, which provide for the indemnification of such
directors and officers against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties
and amounts paid in settlement to the fullest extent permitted by law. Finally,
the Registrant's By-laws permit the Registrant to maintain indemnification
insurance for its directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries and agents. The
Registrant does not currently maintain any indemnification 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.
              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 the 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;

                                       3
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(l)(i) and (a)(l)(ii) of this section do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3 and
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission 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.

         (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 that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act maybe 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
Securities 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 Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
