5,197,185 Common Shares

ACTION PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL, INC.

On July 20, 2006, we made a distribution to our shareholders of one warrant for each common share owned on January 18, 2006.

As a result of this warrant distribution, we may issue up to 5,197,185 common shares upon exercise of the warrants.

The warrants are exercisable until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2008. Our common shares are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “APII.” On August 23, 2006, the last reported sale price of our common shares was $1.60 per share. There is currently no public market for our warrants and we do not anticipate that a public market for our warrants will develop.

Investing in our common shares involves risks. See “ Risk Factors” beginning on page 8.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Questions and answers about our company

What do we do?

Action Products International, Inc. (NASDAQ: APII) is a brand-focused, educational toy company. We design, manufacture and market a diversified portfolio of educational, positive and non-violent brands of toy products to various retailing channels such as toy stores, specialty retailers, education outlets, museums, and attractions in the United States and throughout the world. We were originally incorporated, and began our operations, in New York in 1977, and relocated and re-incorporated in Florida in 1980 as a distributor of education oriented toys and children’s books, stationery and souvenirs, supplying museum gift shops. In 1997 a new business model was developed and implemented around our toy business. From 1997 through 2005 we successfully developed or acquired and brought to market a core portfolio of proprietary branded product lines to replace sales of divested non-core lines. Our first internally developed proprietary toy brand, Space Voyagers^®, generated approximately $1.0 million in its first full year on the market. During the past eight fiscal years, we have continued to develop other new proprietary products through internal development, licensing and acquisition. In October 2002 we began shipping our brand, Jay Jay The Jet Plane™, based on the PBS television show of the same name. In April 2004 we completed the acquisition of certain assets of Curiosity Kits, Inc., a developer, manufacturer and marketer of craft and activity kits for children that are sold primarily to specialty toy and craft retailers, and art museums throughout North America. In September 2005 we completed the acquisition of certain assets of I Made That, Inc., a specially designed line of children’s furnishings, room décor and home accessories that allows children to create personalized furniture and home accessories. The brand is available through approximately 45 retail outlets and a company website. Our business model is based on the expansion of core brands, while developing new brands through internal product development, favorable licensing agreements and prudent acquisitions. Our growth strategy is based on increasing our sales turnover, penetration in existing channels and diversifying distribution channels, while creating and increasing brand equity.

3

We sell our educational toy product lines under the umbrella name “Action Products™”. Our marketing and promotion communications focus on our individual brands such as Curiosity Kits^®, Space Voyagers^®, Climb@Tron™, I Dig Dinosaurs^®, Woodkits™, Drop Zone Extreme^®, Play & Store™, Jay Jay The Jet Plane™, ToddWorld™ and IMadeThat™. Products include premium wooden toys, action figures, play-sets, activity kits and various other playthings with a strategic emphasis on non-violent and educational and fun topics such as Space, dinosaurs, science, and nature.

In addition to the development of internal brands, we actively pursue prudent acquisition opportunities and licensing arrangements. In October 2000, we acquired certain assets of Earth Lore Ltd., an award-winning, privately held Canada-based maker of popular educational excavation kits for children. The acquisition provided us with an appropriate product line extension, and channels of distribution that complemented our existing brands. In December 2001, we acquired a license agreement with the developers of the PBS children’s show Jay Jay The Jet Plane™ to develop and launch our new wooden adventure system based on the episodes of this popular children’s series. We launched this product line in the fourth quarter 2002 to popular reception from the trade and consumers.

The EarthLore^® I Dig Dinosaurs^® brand acquired in October 2000 continues to be a strong brand and contributed over $1.9 million to net sales in 2005. Our best licensed brand rollout to date is the Jay Jay The Jet Plane™ brand that was introduced in the fourth quarter of 2002. It produced $1.2 million in net sales in 2005. The Curiosity Kits^® brand acquired in April 2004 was a significant contributor to our net sales in 2005, generating approximately $2.5 million during the nine months following the acquisition. Our other brands, including Drop Zone Extreme™, Space Voyagers^® and Play & Store™, contributed the remaining $3.9 million net sales in 2005.

Where are we located?

Our principal executive offices are located at 1101 North Keller Road, Suite E, Orlando, Florida 32810. Our telephone number is (407) 481-8007.

Questions and answers about our warrants

What is a warrant?

We have distributed to our shareholders, at no charge, one warrant for each common share owned as of January 18, 2006. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one of our common shares at the then-effective exercise price.

When you “exercise” a warrant, you choose to purchase a common share that the warrant entitles you to purchase. You may exercise all or some of your warrants, or you may choose not to exercise any of your warrants.

Why did we make a warrant distribution?

We made the warrant distribution to obtain additional capital. Instead of selling common shares to outside parties below market prices, our board of directors has chosen to give you the opportunity to buy more common shares without diluting your interest while providing our company with additional capital.

4

What is the exercise price?

The exercise price is $3.25 for each warrant exercised on or before January 31, 2007 and $3.75 for each warrant exercised from February 1, 2007 through January 31, 2008.

How did we arrive at the per share exercise price?

In determining the exercise price, our board of directors desired to offer shares at a price that would be attractive to our shareholder base relative to the current trading price of our common shares. Our board also chose to increase the exercise price from $3.25 to $3.75 part way through the term of the warrants as an incentive to holders to exercise early. Our board also considered the following factors, among others, in no particular order of priority:

• our desire to access investment capital at a minimal cost to us,

• the historic and current market price of our common shares,

• general conditions in the securities market,

• alternatives available to our company for raising capital,

• the amount of proceeds desired,

• the liquidity of our common shares, and

• the level of risk to our investors.

How do I exercise my warrants?

You must properly complete the exercise notice on the back of your warrant certificate and deliver it to our warrant agent before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2007, if you want to exercise at $3.25 per common share and January 31, 2008, if you want to exercise at $3.75 per share. Your warrant certificate must be accompanied by proper payment for each share that you wish to purchase.

How long will I have to exercise my warrants?

You will be able to exercise your warrants only during a limited period. If you do not exercise your warrants before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2008, your warrants will expire.

On July 31, 2006, our Board of Directors extended the time you have to exercise your warrants until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2008. The warrants were previously scheduled to expire on January 31, 2007.

After I exercise my warrants, can I change my mind?

No. Once you send in your warrant certificate and payment, you cannot revoke the exercise of your warrant, even if you later learn information about us that you consider to be unfavorable. You should not exercise any of your warrants unless you are certain that you wish to purchase additional common shares at the then-effective exercise price.

Is exercising my warrants risky?

The exercise of your warrants involves substantial risks. Exercising your warrants means buying additional shares of our common shares, and you should carefully consider this purchase as you would other equity investments. Among other things, you should carefully consider the risks described under “Risk Factors.”

Do I have to exercise any of my warrants?

No.

5

What happens if I choose not to exercise my warrants?

You retain your current number of common shares even if you do not exercise your warrants. However, if you do not exercise any of your warrants and other holders of warrants do, the percentage of our common shares that you own will diminish, and your voting and other rights will be diluted.

Can I sell or give away my warrants?

Yes. However, we have not listed the warrants on the NASDAQ Stock Market or any other trading market. We cannot assure that any trading market will develop for the warrants.

May the company redeem the warrants?

Yes. On 21 days’ prior written notice, we may redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding warrants at a redemption price of $0.001 per warrant.

Has the Board of Directors made a recommendation regarding this offering?

No.

What should I do if I want to exercise my warrants, but my warrants are held in the name of my broker, dealer or other nominee?

If you hold your warrants through a broker, dealer or other nominee (for example, through a custodian bank), then your broker, dealer or other nominee is the record holder of the warrants you own. This record holder must exercise the warrants on your behalf for shares you wish to purchase. Therefore, you will need to have your record holder act for you. If you wish to exercise your warrants, please promptly contact the record holder of your common shares.

What fees or charges apply if I exercise my warrants?

We are not charging you any fee or sales commission to issue common shares to you if you exercise any of your warrants. We may, however, pay a soliciting broker for your exercise of your warrants. If you exercise your warrants through a record holder of your shares, such as a broker, you are responsible for paying any fees that person may charge.

What are the Federal income tax consequences of exercising my warrants?

The exercise of your warrants is intended to be nontaxable for purposes of federal income tax. However, no ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been obtained nor an opinion of counsel will be sought. You should seek specific tax advice from your personal tax advisor.

When will I receive my new shares?

If you exercise any of your warrants, you will receive certificates representing the common shares as soon as practicable after the date of exercise.

Subject to state securities laws and regulations, we have the discretion to delay distribution of any shares you may have elected to purchase by exercise of your warrants in order to comply with state securities laws.

How much money will our company receive from the exercise of warrants?

The gross proceeds from the exercise of warrants depend on the number of shares that are purchased and when they are purchased. If all of the warrants are exercised, our company will receive gross proceeds of between approximately $16.8 million and $19.4 million.

6

How will our company use the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants?

We will use any proceeds generated from the exercise of the warrants for additional investment and working capital, including, but not limited to, new product development, marketing and acquisition of new business assets.

How many shares will be outstanding after the exercise of all of the warrants?

The number of common shares that will be outstanding after the exercise of all of the warrants distributed will be 10,424,208.

What if I have additional questions?

If you have more questions, please contact our Corporate Secretary at (407) 481-8007, extension 7241.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before you purchase our common shares. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In this event, you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks associated with our business

We incurred net losses in fiscal 2005 and 2004. If we continue to incur net losses, our ability to satisfy our cash requirements may be more difficult. We incurred net losses of approximately $21,000 and $68,000 in fiscal 2005 and 2004 respectively and a net loss of $1,385,100 for the first six months of 2006. There can be no assurance that we will return to profitability in the future. If we fail to generate operating income and net income, we could have difficulty meeting our working capital requirements.

We have substantial cash requirements and may require additional sources of funds. Additional sources of funds may not be available or available on reasonable terms. We have substantial cash requirements in connection with our operations and debt service obligations. In addition, new product development, which is key to the success of our business, is cash intensive. If the cash we generate from our operations or from our other sources is not available when needed or is insufficient to satisfy our requirements, we may require additional sources of funds. We cannot assure you that additional sources of funds would be available or available on reasonable terms. If we do not generate sufficient amounts of capital to meet our cash requirements at the times and on the terms required by us, our business will be adversely affected.

Changing consumer preferences may negatively impact our product lines. As a result of changing consumer preferences, many toys are successfully marketed for only one or two years, if at all. We cannot assure you that any of our current successful products or product lines will continue to be popular with consumers for any significant period of time, or that new products and product lines will achieve an acceptable degree of market acceptance, or that if such acceptance is achieved, it will be maintained for any significant period of time. Our success is dependent upon our ability to enhance existing product lines and develop new products and product lines. The failure of our new products and product lines to achieve and sustain market acceptance and to produce acceptable margins could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our customers’ inventory management systems may cause us to produce excess inventory that may become obsolete and increase our inventory carrying costs. Most of our largest retail customers utilize an inventory management system to track sales of products and rely on reorders being rapidly filled by us and other suppliers, rather than maintaining large product inventories. These types of systems put pressure on suppliers like us to promptly fill customer orders and therefore shift some of the inventory risk from the retailer to the suppliers. Production of excess inventory by us to meet anticipated retailer demand could result in our carrying obsolete inventory and increasing our inventory carrying costs. Similarly, if we fail to predict consumer demand for a product, we may not be able to deliver an adequate supply of products on a timely basis and will, as a result, lose sales opportunities.

There are risks related to our acquisition strategy. We may, from time to time, evaluate and pursue acquisition opportunities on terms management considers favorable. A successful acquisition involves an assessment of the business condition and prospects of the acquisition target, which includes factors beyond our control. This assessment is necessarily inexact and its

8

accuracy is inherently uncertain. In connection with such an assessment, we perform a review we believe to be generally consistent with industry practices. This review, however, will not reveal all existing or potential problems, nor will it permit us to become sufficiently familiar with the acquisition target to assess fully its deficiencies. We cannot assure you that any such acquisition would be successful or that the operations of the acquisition target could be successfully integrated with our operations. Any unsuccessful acquisition could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We are dependent on contracts with manufacturers, most of which are short-term. We conduct substantially all of our manufacturing operations through contract manufacturers, many of which are located in the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong. We generally do not have long-term contracts with our manufacturers. Foreign manufacturing is subject to a number of risks including, but not limited to:

• transportation delays and interruptions,

• political and economic disruptions,

• the impositions of tariffs and import and export controls, and

• changes in governmental policies.

While we have not experienced any material adverse effects due to such risks to date, we cannot assure you that such events will not occur in the future and possibly result in increases in costs and delays of, or interferences with, product deliveries resulting in losses of sales and goodwill.

We are dependent on intellectual property rights and cannot ensure that we will be able to successfully protect such rights. We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright, patent and other proprietary rights laws to protect our rights to valuable intellectual property related to our brands. We also rely on license and other agreements to establish ownership rights and to maintain confidentiality. We cannot assure you that such intellectual property rights can be successfully asserted in the future or that they will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged. In addition, laws of certain foreign countries in which our products are sold, or in which we operate, do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. The failure to protect our proprietary information and any successful intellectual property challenges or infringement proceedings against us could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

There are specific risks associated with international sales. We have sold products to customers in the United Kingdom, Canada, Korea, Japan, Spain, Australia and New Zealand. We expect to augment our presence in international markets. Accordingly, our business, and our ability to expand our operations internationally, is subject to various risks inherent in international business activities. We may have difficulty in safeguarding our intellectual property in countries where intellectual property laws are not well developed or are poorly enforced. General economic conditions and political conditions of various countries may be subject to severe fluctuations at any time. Such fluctuations could hinder our performance under contracts in those countries or could hinder our ability to collect for product and services delivered in those countries. However, we generally sell to international customers under terms requiring letters of credit or payment in advance. Unexpected changes in foreign regulatory requirements could also make it difficult or too costly for us to conduct business internationally.

In addition, although we have normally been successful in stipulating that our foreign customers pay in U.S. dollars, any payment provisions involving foreign currencies may result in less revenue than expected due to foreign currency rate fluctuations. Other risks associated with international operations include:

• import and export licensing requirements,

9

• trade restrictions,

• changes in tariff rates,

• overlapping tax structures,

• transportation delays,

• currency fluctuations,

• potentially adverse tax consequences, and

• compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations.

Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our ability to expand our international sales. Increased exposure to international markets creates new areas with which we may not be familiar and could place us in competition with new vendors. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts to compete in these international markets.

We face potential liability from product safety claims. Products that have been or may be developed or sold by us may expose us to potential liability from personal injury or property damage claims by end-users of such products. We have never been and are not presently a defendant in any product liability lawsuit; however, we cannot assure you that such a suit will not be brought against us in the future. We currently maintain product liability insurance coverage in the amount of $1.0 million per occurrence, with a $2.0 million excess umbrella policy. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain such coverage or obtain additional coverage on acceptable terms, or that such insurance will provide adequate coverage against all potential claims. Moreover, even if we maintain adequate insurance, any successful claim could materially and adversely affect our reputation and prospects, and divert management’s time and attention. The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission, or CPSC, has the authority under certain federal laws and regulations to protect consumers from hazardous goods. The CPSC may exclude from the market goods it determines are hazardous, and may require a manufacturer to repurchase such goods under certain circumstances. Some state, local and foreign governments have similar laws and regulations. In the event that such laws or regulations change or we are found in the future to have violated any such law or regulation, the sale of the relevant product could be prohibited and we could be required to repurchase such products.

We may become subject to burdensome governmental regulation. In the U.S., we are subject to the provisions of, among other laws, the Federal Consumer Product Safety Act and the Federal Hazardous Substances Act. These acts empower the CPSC to protect the public against unreasonable risks of injury associated with consumer products, including toys and other articles. The CPSC has the authority to exclude from the market articles which are found to be hazardous and can require a manufacturer to repair or repurchase such toys under certain circumstances. Any such determination by the CPSC is subject to court review. Violations of these acts may also result in civil and criminal penalties. Similar laws exist in some states and cities in the U.S. and in many jurisdictions throughout the world. We maintain a quality control program, including the retention of independent testing laboratories, to ensure compliance with applicable laws. We believe we are currently in substantial compliance with these laws. In general, we have not experienced difficulty complying with such regulations, and compliance has not had an adverse effect on our business.

There are risks related to our customers’ payment terms. The majority of our customers receive trade terms to which payments for products are delayed for up to 30 days and some receive in excess of 120 days, pursuant to various sales promotion programs. The insolvency or business failure of one or more of our customers with large accounts receivable could have a material adverse effect on our future sales.

10

We depend on key personnel. Our success largely depends on a number of key employees. The loss of services of one or more of these employees could have a material adverse effect on our business. We are especially dependent upon the efforts and abilities of certain of our senior management, particularly Ronald S. Kaplan, our Chief Executive Officer. Currently, we do not maintain key man life insurance on Mr. Kaplan or any other executive officer. We believe that our future success will also depend, in part, upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure you, however, that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.

Seasonality may affect our results of operations. Our sales have historically been seasonal in nature, reflecting peak sales in the second six months of the year and slower sales in the first six months.

Risks associated with our warrants

The warrants are currently “out-of-the-money”. The warrant exercise price is currently higher than the trading price of our common shares. Since October 2005, our common shares have been trading almost exclusively below $3.00. Our Board of Directors determined the warrant exercise price and approved the distribution of warrants to give our shareholders a fixed opportunity to buy additional shares without brokerage fees. We can give no assurance that the trading price of our common shares will meet or exceed the warrant exercise price and, consequently, whether it will be profitable for the holders of warrants to exercise the warrants. If you exercise your warrants while the trading price of our common shares is less than the warrant exercise price, then you will have committed to buy our common shares at a price above the prevailing market price. Once you have exercised your warrants, you may not revoke your exercise. Moreover, you may be unable to sell your common shares at a price equal to or greater than the warrant exercise price you pay.

Your interest in us may be diluted to the extent other warrant holders exercise warrants and you do not. If you do not exercise your warrants in full, your percentage ownership and voting rights will decrease to the extent that warrants are exercised by others. After submitting your warrant certificate and exercise price, you may not revoke your exercise and could be committed to buy shares above the prevailing market price.

The exercise price determined for this offering is not an indication of our value. Our board of directors set the exercise price. The exercise price does not necessarily bear any relationship to the book value of our assets, past operations, cash flows, losses, financial condition or any other established criteria for value. You should not consider the exercise price as an indication of our value.

The exercise price increases during the term of the warrants. You may exercise your warrants at $3.25 per share until January 31, 2007, or earlier if we elect to redeem the warrants prior to January 31, 2007. If you do not exercise all of your warrants on or prior to January 31, 2007, you may exercise your remaining unexercised warrants at $3.75 per share until the warrants expire on January 31, 2008 or earlier if we elect to redeem the warrants prior to January 31, 2008. This means that if you wait to exercise after January 31, 2007, your cost to exercise increases from $3.25 to $3.75 per share.

There has been no prior market for our warrants and a public market for our warrants may not develop or be sustained. We have not applied for listing of our warrants on the

11

NASDAQ Stock Market or any other market or exchange. We can not assure you that a public market for our warrants will ever develop. If a public market for our warrants does not develop, or if a public market does develop but is not sustained, the liquidity of your warrants may be significantly harmed.

Risks associated with investing in us

We expect our stock price to be volatile. The market price of our common shares has been, and will likely continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, such as:

• actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations,

• new services or product introductions by us or our competitors,

• changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, and

• conditions and trends in the consumer toy industry.

The stock markets generally, and the NASDAQ Capital Market, formerly, the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many companies and that often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common shares.

Our officers and directors control a large percentage of outstanding common shares and may be able to exercise significant control. Our current officers and directors beneficially own approximately 20% of our common shares on a fully diluted basis. As a result, current management will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.

We have implemented anti-takeover provisions. Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects and may delay, defer or prevent a take-over attempt of us. We are subject to the “affiliated transactions” and “control share acquisition” provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act. These provisions require, subject to certain exceptions, that an “affiliated transaction” be approved by the holders of two-thirds of the voting shares other than those beneficially owned by an “interested shareholder” or by a majority of disinterested directors. Voting rights must also be conferred on “control shares” acquired in specific control share acquisitions. Lastly, our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 preferred shares with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board, of which all shares remain without designation and are available for issuance. We include such preferred shares in our capitalization in order to enhance our financial flexibility. However, the issuance of large blocks of preferred shares may have a dilutive effect with respect to existing holders of our common shares.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends until we are profitable. We expect that we will retain a major portion of available earnings generated by our operations for the development and growth of our business. However, we do anticipate paying cash dividends on our common shares contingent on future profitable operating results.

The issuance of additional common shares or the exercise of outstanding options and warrants will dilute the interests of our shareholders. As of August 23, 2006, we had 5,227,023 common shares outstanding. Our board has the ability, without further shareholder approval, to issue up to 9,772,977 additional common shares. Such issuance may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of our outstanding common shares. Issuance of additional common

12

shares will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of the then existing shareholders. Further, if all of our outstanding options and warrants are exercised, including the 6,734,767 warrants outstanding on August 23, 2006, we will have approximately 12,364,290 shares outstanding. Thus, the percentage of shares owned by all existing shareholders will be reduced proportionately as options and warrants are exercised. The table below summarizes our outstanding common shares, options and warrants as of August 23, 2006:

Common Shares, Options and Warrants	Number of Common Shares		Number of Common Shares underlying Options and Warrants	Total
Common shares issued

USE OF PROCEEDS

The maximum net proceeds that we may receive from this offering, assuming payment of 10% of the gross exercise proceeds to broker-dealers for soliciting the exercise, could be up to between approximately $15.1 million and $17.5 million if all warrants are exercised.

However, all of the warrants may not be exercised and no assurance can be given as to when or whether any warrants will be exercised, nor as to the timing of receipt or the amount of

15

proceeds. The warrants are intended to provide shareholders an opportunity to acquire additional common shares. We are not dependent upon, nor do we expect, any material amount of proceeds from the warrants at any given time, if ever. Although there is no accurate way to determine the number of warrants that will be exercised, if any, we will use any net proceeds of the sale of our common shares from this offering for additional investment and working capital purposes.

16

THE WARRANTS

Below is a summary of the material terms of the warrants, as more fully described in the Warrant Agreement by and between our company and the warrant agent. The Warrant Agreement is an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. A copy of the Warrant Agreement, as amended, may also be obtained from our company.

General

On July 20, 2006, we distributed to holders of our common shares, one warrant for each common share that they own on the record date of January 18, 2006. As a warrant holder, you may purchase our common shares through exercise of your warrants. To purchase our common shares, you must deliver one warrant for each common share you intend to purchase.

Exercising Your Warrants

Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one of our common shares. You may exercise your warrants by properly completing and signing the exercise notice on the back of your warrant certificate, including, if required, a signature guarantee from an eligible institution and delivering the properly executed warrant certificate to the warrant agent, together with payment of the aggregate warrant exercise price in full. There is no minimum amount of shares that you must purchase. You may exercise your warrants in whole or in part, but no warrants may be exercised for fractional shares. A holder of warrants will not have any rights, privileges or liabilities as a shareholder prior to exercise of the warrants.

Warrant Exercise Price

The exercise price for the warrants is $3.25 per share, if you exercise on or before January 31, 2007 and $3.75 per share if you exercise after January 31, 2007. To exercise your warrants to purchase our common shares, you must deliver a properly completed and signed exercise notice on the back of your warrant certificate together with payment of the aggregate warrant exercise price to the warrant agent prior to expiration.

Warrant Solicitation Agent

We have appointed Brookstreet Securities Corporation to act on a nonexclusive basis as a solicitation agent in connection with the exercise of the warrants pursuant to a Warrant Solicitation Agreement between us and Brookstreet.

Pursuant to the Warrant Solicitation Agreement, we have agreed to pay Brookstreet a cash fee of 10% of the total proceeds received from exercises of the warrants, if:

• the market price of our common shares on the date the warrants are exercised is greater than the then-current exercise price of the warrants,

• you designate in writing that the exercise of the warrants was solicited by Brookstreet and the name of the broker-dealer to receive compensation for such exercise,

• the warrants are not held in an account over which Brookstreet has discretionary authority,

• disclosure of compensation arrangements was made both at the time of the offering and at the time of exercise of the warrants, and

• the solicitation of exercise of the warrant was not in violation of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

17

We may pay a solicitation fee under certain circumstances to brokers who solicit the exercise of the warrants. If you exercise your warrant, please indicate on the exercise notice whether your exercise was solicited by a broker, and, if so, the name and firm of the broker.

Expiration Time

The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on January 31, 2008, the expiration time. After expiration of the warrants, all unexercised warrants will be null and void and no longer exercisable by the holder. We will not be obligated to honor any purported exercise of warrants received by the warrant agent after the expiration time, regardless of when the documents relating to such exercise were sent.

Redemption

The warrants are redeemable by us at any time prior to their expiration date. We may redeem the warrants at $0.001 per warrant by giving all of the holders of our warrants 21 days’ prior written notice.

Transfer and Warrant Agent and Registrar

Our transfer and warrant agent and registrar for our securities is Registrar and Transfer Company. The address to which you must make any required deliveries is:

Registrar and Transfer Company

P.O. Box 1010

Cranford, New Jersey 07016-1010

Distribution of Warrants

We have distributed the warrants at no cost to those persons who were holders of our outstanding common shares on January 18, 2006. No warrants will be exercisable unless at the time of exercise there is a current prospectus covering the common shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants under an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and such shares have been qualified for sale or are exempt from qualification under the securities laws of the state or residence of the holder of such warrants. Although we intend to seek to have the common shares so qualified in the states where the warrants are being offered and to maintain a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Warrant Payments

You must pay the warrant exercise price in full for all shares you intend to purchase by:

• check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank, or postal, telegraphic or express money order, payable to Registrar and Transfer Company, as warrant agent, or

• wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account which the warrant agent maintains for this purpose. Please contact the warrant agent at (800) 456-0596 to obtain appropriate wiring instructions.

The warrant exercise price will be deemed to have been received by the warrant agent only upon:

• clearance of any uncertified check,

• receipt by the warrant agent of any certified check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or of a postal, telegraphic or express money order, or

• receipt of good funds in the warrant agent’s account designated in the wiring instructions provided by the warrant agent.

18

Anti-Dilution Protection

The warrant exercise price and the number of common shares issuable upon exercise of each warrant will be subject to adjustment to protect against dilution in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, combinations, subdivisions, reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers, and similar corporate transactions. However, the warrants are not subject to adjustment for issuance of our common shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for our common shares) at prices below the exercise price of the warrants. Any adjustment required by the foregoing events will be determined by our Board of Directors.

Warrant Amendments

We reserve the right to make any modification to the terms of the warrants that is not materially adverse to the holders of the warrants. Any such modification will be determined by our Board of Directors and we will cause written notice of any such modification to be sent to all record holders of the warrants which describes the modification and its effective date.

Nominee Holders

Holders on the record date who hold common shares for the account of others, such as brokers, trustees or depositories for securities, should contact the respective beneficial owners of such shares to ascertain the intentions of the beneficial owners of such shares and to obtain instructions with respect to their warrants. If a beneficial owner so instructs, the nominee should promptly complete the applicable warrant certificate and submit it to the warrant agent with the proper payment. In addition, beneficial owners of our common shares or warrants held through such nominee should contact the nominee and request the nominee to effect transactions in accordance with the beneficial owner’s instructions.

Ambiguities in Exercise of the Warrants

If you do not specify the number of warrants being exercised on your warrant certificate, or if your payment is not sufficient to pay the total warrant exercise price for all of the shares that you indicate you wish to purchase, you will be deemed to have exercised the maximum number of warrants that could be exercised for the amount of the payment that the warrant agent receives from you.

If your payment exceeds the number of warrants you specify are being exercised on your warrant certificate, you will be deemed to have exercised the maximum number of warrants that could be exercised for the amount of payment the warrant agent receives from you, up to the aggregate number of warrants exercisable by your warrant certificate. Any excess payment remaining after the foregoing allocation will be returned to you by mail as soon as practicable following processing of your warrant certificate, without interest or deduction.

Interpretation

All questions concerning the timeliness, validity, form and eligibility of any exercise of warrants will be determined by us and our determinations will be final and binding. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected within such time as we may determine, or reject the purported exercise of any warrant. Warrants will not be deemed to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as we determine in our sole discretion.

19

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject any exercise or related documents or payment not properly submitted or the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. Neither we nor the warrant agent will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in connection with the exercise of warrant certificates or incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

Risk of Loss on Delivery of Warrant Certificates and Payments

The instructions contained in the warrant certificate should be read carefully and followed in detail. The method of delivery of warrant certificates and payment of the warrant exercise price to the warrant agent will be at the election and risk of the warrant holders but, if sent by mail it is recommended that warrant certificates and payments be sent by registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, and that a sufficient number of days be allowed to ensure delivery to the warrant agent and clearance of payment at or prior to the expiration time. In addition, if you request reissuance of a warrant certificate, the delivery will be at your risk.

Exercise of Less Than All Warrants

If you exercise your warrants for fewer than all of the shares represented by your warrant certificate, you may receive from the warrant agent a new warrant certificate representing the unexercised warrants. A new warrant certificate for the remaining warrants will be issued to you only if the warrant agent receives a properly endorsed warrant certificate from you no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the fifth business day prior to the expiration time. The warrant agent will not issue new warrant certificates for partially exercised warrant certificates submitted after that date and time.

Unless you make other arrangements with the warrant agent, a new warrant certificate issued after 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the fifth business day before the expiration time will be held for pick-up by you at the offices of the warrant agent.

Transferability of Warrants

In the event you desire to present your warrant certificate for registration of transfer, the assignment form included therein shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to us and the warrant agent, duly executed by you or your attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing. Moreover, your signature on your warrant certificate must be guaranteed by an Eligible Guarantor Institution. Please see “Signature Guarantees” below for a discussion regarding Eligible Guarantor Institutions and guaranteed signatures. The warrant agent may impose a reasonable service charge against you for any registration of transfer of your warrant certificate. You may also be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such transfer.

In addition, we do not intend to apply, and are not obligated to apply, for listing of the warrants on any securities exchange, the NASDAQ Stock Market, or any other market.

Signature Guarantees

Signatures on your warrant certificate must be guaranteed to exercise your warrant or to transfer any or all of your warrants. If your warrants are being exercised or are being transferred in a manner permitted, then your signature on each warrant certificate must be guaranteed by an Eligible Guarantor Institution, as defined in Rule 17Ad-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and required under the standards and procedures adopted by the warrant agent. Eligible Guarantor Institutions include banks, brokers, dealers, credit unions, national securities exchanges and savings associations.

20

No Revocation

Once you exercise your warrants, you may not revoke that exercise. Warrants not exercised prior to their expiration will be null and void as of and after such time.

No Board Recommendation

Our Board of Directors does not make any recommendation to you about whether you should exercise any warrants. If you exercise warrants, you risk investment loss on money invested. We cannot assure you that anyone purchasing our common shares will be able to sell those shares in the future at a higher price. An investment in our common shares must be made in accordance with your evaluation of your own best interest.

Issuance of Stock Certificates

Stock certificates for shares purchased in the offering will be issued to you as soon as practicable after you exercise your warrants. Registrar & Transfer Company will deliver payment of the warrant exercise price to us only after the issuance of common share certificates to those exercising warrants.

If you exercise warrants, you will have no rights as a shareholder until certificates representing the shares you purchased are issued. Shares purchased by the exercise of warrants will be registered in the name of the person exercising the warrants.

State and Foreign Securities Law

The warrants may not be exercised by any person, and neither this prospectus nor the warrant certificate shall constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any of our common shares, in any jurisdiction in which such transactions would be unlawful. We believe that no action has been taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States to permit offers and sales of the warrants or the offer, sale or distribution of our common shares outside the United States. Consequently, we may reject the exercise of warrants by any holder of warrants outside the United States. We may also reject the exercise of warrants by holders in jurisdictions within the United States, and we may refuse to distribute warrants to any person, if we should determine that we may not lawfully issue securities to such person. We may do so even if we could qualify the securities for sale or distribution by taking other actions or modifying the terms of the offering or the distribution in such jurisdictions, which we may decline to do in our sole discretion. In such event, warrant holders who are residents of these jurisdictions will not be eligible to exercise the warrants. If you hold your warrants in a nominee account (such as in a brokerage account), the record owner must contact us or the warrant agent prior to exercising to determine if the offer of sale of our common shares is permissible in your state.

Regulatory Limitation

We will not be required to issue shares pursuant to this offering to anyone who, in our opinion, would be required to obtain prior clearance or authorization from any state or federal regulatory authorities to own or control such shares if such clearance or authorization has not been obtained at the expiration of this offering.

Questions or Requests for Assistance

If you have questions about this offering, including questions about the procedure for exercising warrants or requests for additional copies of this prospectus, please contact the warrant agent toll free at (800) 456-0596.
