(* filed herewith)

Item 9. Undertakings.

The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post effective amendment to this registration statement to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a) (3) of the Securities Act;

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, to treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering;

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer 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 Company 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 Company will, unless in the opinion of this counsel that 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 Act and will be governed by the final jurisdiction of such issue.

At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by you with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about June 26, 2003, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 3,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, no par value (exclusive of any securities associated therewith, the "Stock") to be sold by you pursuant to the Company's Year 2003 Supplemental Employee/Consultant Stock Compensation Plan. (the "Plan").

As your counsel, we have examined the proceedings relating to and action taken by you in connection with the adoption of the Purchase Plan.

It is our opinion that the 3,000,000 shares of the Stock that may be issued and sold by the Company pursuant to the Plan, when issued and sold in the manner provided in the Plan, will be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to all references to us in the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto. In providing this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,
