ITEM 4. OWNERSHIP
Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and

(a) Amount Beneficially Owned: 800,000*
(b) Percent of Class: 10.67%**
(c) Number of shares as to which such person has:
(i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 800,000*

*Consists of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 100,000 shares
of Series B Preferred Stock acquired on September 26, 2001 (the "Closing Date").
Each share of Series B Preferred is initially convertible into Common Stock at a
conversion price of $2.50 (the "Conversion Price") per share, or 8 shares of
Common Stock per share of Series B Preferred Stock. The Conversion Price is
subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations,
recapitalizations and other similar corporate events. Additionally, the Series B
Preferred Stock contains a reset feature (the "Reset Feature") that would result
in a one-time reduction of the Conversion Price if the average daily trading
price of the Common Stock for the 20 days prior to the 180 day anniversary of
the Closing Date ("Average Trading Price") is below $2.50. If the Reset Feature
is triggered, the Conversion Price will be reset to the greater of the Average
Trading Price or $2.00. As a result, the number of shares issuable upon
conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock may increase by as much as 25% (with
each share of Series B Preferred converting into a maximum of 10 shares of
Common Stock. If the Average Trading Price ultimately is less than or equal to
$2.00 and, as a result of the Reset Feature, the Conversion Price is reset to
$2.00, the total number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
Reporting Person would increase to 1,000,000 and the corresponding percentage
ownership of the Reporting person would be 12.99% (assuming no intervening
change in the total outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company).
**Calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. In accordance with Rule 13d-3, no shares of Series B Preferred
Stock held by any person other than the Reporting Person have been deemed
outstanding for purposes of this calculation. Because all shares of Series B
Preferred Stock vote on an as-converted basis with the Common Stock, the
Reporting Person's actual voting interest is 5.12%.
