Act). The Board of Directors has determined, based on the Companys current business environment, there is no
need to have a financial expert, as defined under item 401(l) of Regulation S-K, serving on the Audit Committee at this time. The Board believes that the financial and business background of the Audit Committee members provides adequate financial
support for the Company.



Audit Committee Matters



The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee of three members. The Board has not
confirmed that all members of the Audit Committee are independent within the meaning of the Exchange Act of 1934.



Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance



Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and related amendments furnished to the Registrant during 2003 and Forms 5 and related amendments furnished to the Registrant
for the year ended December 31, 2003, Section 16(a) filing requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934, have been met.



Code of Ethics



The Registrant has not adopted a formal Code of Ethics that applies to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.



The Registrant has followed an informal Code of Ethics requiring any material transaction between the Registrant and the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Chief
Financial Officer and between the Registrant and an outside third party must be approved by the Board of Directors. The Registrant believes this procedure is reasonably designed to deter material wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct.

available for options that may be granted prior to the termination of the plan.

receive an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares upon their initial election to the Executive Committee of the Board, and receive an option to purchase 5,000 shares on the anniversary date of the election to the Executive Committee. In

1996 receive an option to purchase 5,000 shares.
