ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

     On March 23, 2005, the Registrant issued its Convertible Promissory Note in
the principal amount of $110,000 to Anthony Silverman. Mr. Silverman is a member
of the Registrant's Board of Directors and Executive Committee. The Note is due
on March 31, 2006 and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable
monthly. The principal of and any accrued interest under Note is convertible at
the option of the Holder into shares of the Registrant's common stock at a
conversion price of $0.12 per share. If the Note is converted, the Holder may
participate in any registration of securities (with certain exceptions) effected
by the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 (so-called "piggy-back"
rights).

     The consideration for the Note is the discharge of two existing promissory
notes issued by the Registrant to Mr. Silverman, in the aggregate principal
amount of $110,000, which notes had been due and payable on March 13, 2005 and
May 3, 2005 respectively.
