with the Securities and Exchange

Commission (‘‘Commission’’), pursuant

to Section 12(d) of the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) and Rule

12d2–2(d) promulgated thereunder, to

withdraw the above specified security

(‘‘Security’’) from listing and

registration on the American Stock

Exchange, Inc. (‘‘Amex’’ or

‘‘Exchange’’).

The reasons cited in the application

for withdrawing the Security from

listing and registration include the

following:

The Company has complied with

Amex Rule 18 by filing with the

Exchange a certified copy of the

unanimous written consent containing

resolutions adopted by the Company’s

Board of Directors authorizing the

withdrawal of the Security from listing

and registration on the Amex, and by

setting forth in detail to the Exchange

the reasons and facts supporting the

proposed withdrawal.

On October 16, 1997, the Company’s

Board of Directors unanimously

determined to withdraw the Company’s

Security from listing and registration on

the Emerging Company Marketplace of

the Amex. This action was taken while

the Company and the Amex were

engaged in discussions focusing on

whether the Company was in

compliance with certain of the Amex’s

continued listing guidelines. The

Company has represented that its

Security will continue to trade on the

Pacific Exchange, Inc., where the

Security has been listed and registered

since November 11, 1996.

By letter dated November 11, 1997,

the Amex informed the Company that it

had no objection to the withdrawal of

the Company’s Security from listing and

registration on the Amex.

By reason of Section 12(b) of the Act

and the rules thereunder, the Company

shall continue to be obligated to file

reports with the Commission and the

Pacific Exchange under Section 13 of

the Act.

Any interested person may, on or

before January 16, 1998, submit by letter

to the Secretary of the Securities and

Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street,

N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts

bearing upon whether the application

has been made in accordance with the

rules of the Exchange and what terms,

if any, should be imposed by the

Commission for the protection of

investors. The Commission, based on

the information submitted to it, will

issue an order granting the application

after the date mentioned above, unless

the Commission determines to order a

hearing on the matter.

For the Commission, by the Division of

Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated

authority.

Secretary.
