ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED.

     The Company is registering 25,000,000 shares of its Common Stock ($.001 par
value), which represents all of the Company's authorized Common Stock.

     Subject to the rights of the  holders of  Preferred  Stock,  holders of the
Common Stock are  entitled to receive  such  dividends as may be declared by the
Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor,  and in the event of
liquidation,  to share  pro rate in any  distribution  of the  Company's  assets
remaining  after  payment of all  liabilities.  All  Shares of Common  Stock now
issued and outstanding are fully paid and non-assessable. Each share is entitled
to equal dividends and on liquidation,  dissolution or winding up of the Company
to a pro rata share in the Company's net assets. Under the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation  and pursuant to Nevada law, the Board of Directors may, at any
time,  authorize  the  issuance of  additional  stock or rights to  subscribe to
additional  shares within the number of shares  authorised by the Certificate of
Incorporation for such  consideration as it may deem  appropriate,  but not less
than par value.  No  shareholder  has  pre-emptive  rights to purchase  any such
shares.

     Holders of Common  Shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters
on which shareholders are entitled to vote, including the election of directors.
Holders of Common  Stock are not  entitled to  cumulative  voting  rights in the
election  of  directors.  The quorum  required  at a  shareholders'  meeting for
consideration of any matters is a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the
matter,  represented  in  person  or by  proxy.  If a  quorum  is  present,  the
affirmative vote of a majority of the shares voting on the matter at the meeting
is required for  stockholder  approval except where a different vote is required
by law.  Shareholders  of the Company  are  entitled  to  dividends  if and when
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor.  The
Company has not paid or declared any  dividends  since  organisation  and has no
present  intention of paying each dividend.  The Board of Directors may consider
declaring dividends in the future based on the Company's performance.

ITEM 2. EXHIBITS.

     Exhibit numbers 1.03, 2.01,  2.02, 2.03 and 2.04 required  pursuant to this
item are being incorporated by reference pursuant to the Company's  Registration
Statement on Form S-18, registration number 33-27652, filed under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and post-effective amendments thereto.
