Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Pursuant to our Standby Equity Distribution Agreement ("SEDA") dated July 15, 2005, we sold 856,018 shares of common stock to Cornell Capital Partners, LP ("Cornell Capital") on August 18, 2005. In accordance with the SEDA, the number of shares was calculated as $500,000 divided by $0.5841. We selected $500,000 as the gross advance for this particular SEDA transaction. The $0.5841 price per share was calculated, under the SEDA, by multiplying the lowest daily volume weighted average price (as quoted by Bloomberg L.P.) in the five-day trading period from August 11, 2005 to August 17, 2005 by 97%. From the indicated $500,000 gross advance, we actually received cash proceeds of $474,500, net of a 5% retainage fee and a $500 structuring fee.

We have stated in a SEC registration statement that the 3% discount and the 5% retainage fee constitute underwriting discounts, as does the $515,000 commitment fee (paid in the form of 725,353 shares of our common stock) which we paid to Cornell Capital in respect of the entire $15,000,000 SEDA commitment on July 15, 2005. The 856,018 shares were issued to Cornell Capital pursuant to the Securities Act Section 4(2) registration exemption.
