The Reporting Person previously reported in the Form 4 for November 15, 2002 the acquisition of a convertible note and warrants to purchase Common Stock on November 15, 2002.  Although the convertible note and warrants were issued on November 15, 2002, the note and warrants were not convertible into shares of Common Stock until approved by the Issuer's shareholders.  Approval for the conversion was obtained on November 27, 2002.  Accordingly, the Reporting Person filed a separate report showing the dates of these transactions as November 27, 2002.</remarks><ownerSignature><signatureName>Norton Herrick</signatureName><signatureDate>2003-09-05</signatureDate></ownerSignature></ownershipDocument>
