                           00-16177  on Form 8-A  filed  with the
                           SEC on August  31,  1987  pursuant  to
                           Section 12 of the Securities  Exchange
                           Act of 1934,  as  amended  (the  "1934
                           Act"), in which there is described the
                           terms,     rights    and    provisions
                           applicable    to   the    Registrant's
                           outstanding Common Stock.

                  All reports and definitive proxy or information
statements filed pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of
the 1934 Act after the date of this  Registration  Statement  and
prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates
that  all  securities  offered  hereby  have  been  sold or which
deregisters all securities then remaining  unsold shall be deemed
to be incorporated by reference into this Registration  Statement
and  to be a  part  hereof  from  the  date  of  filing  of  such
documents.  Any statement contained in a document incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated by reference  herein shall be deemed to
be  modified or  superseded  for  purposes  of this  Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement  contained  herein or in
any  subsequently  filed  document  which  also is  deemed  to be
incorporated  by reference  herein  modifies or  supersedes  such
statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not
be deemed,  except as so modified or superseded,  to constitute a
part of this Registration Statement.


Item 4.  Description of Securities

                  Not applicable.

Item 5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

                  Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

                  Article  11 of  the  Registrant's  Articles  of
Incorporation,  as amended,  and Section 5.01 of the Registrant's
Bylaws,  as amended,  provide that the Registrant  shall,  to the
full  extent   permitted  by  law,   indemnify  all  Registrant's
directors,  officers,  employees, or agents. Section 2-418 of the
Maryland   General   Corporation  Law  (the  "Section")   permits
indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of a
corporation  under  certain  conditions  and  subject  to certain
limitations. The Section provides generally that such persons may
be  indemnified  unless they engage in a material act or omission
in bad  faith or that is the  result  of  active  and  deliberate
dishonesty; they actually receive an improper personal benefit in
money,  property  or  services;  or,  in the  case of a  criminal
proceeding, they have reasonable cause to believe that the act or
omission is  unlawful.  Provision  is made for  reimbursement  of
reasonable  expenses so long as it is finally determined that the
standards of conduct have been met.

Item 9.  Undertakings
                      A.     The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby
undertakes:   (1)  to   file,   during   any   period   in  which
offers or sales are being made,  a  post-effective  amendment  to
this  Registration   Statement  (i)  to  include  any  prospectus
required by Section  10(a)(3) of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as
amended  (the "1933 Act") (ii) to reflect in the  prospectus  any
facts  or  events  arising  after  the  effective  date  of  this
Registration   Statement  (or  the  most  recent   post-effective
amendment  thereof)  which,  individually  or in  the  aggregate,
represent a fundamental  change in the  information  set forth in
this  Registration  Statement  and (iii) to include any  material
information   with  respect  to  the  plan  of  distribution  not
previously  disclosed  in  this  Registration  Statement  or  any
material  change  to  such   information  in  this   Registration
Statement;  provided,  however,  that clauses  (1)(i) and (1)(ii)
shall not apply if the  information  required to be included in a
post-effective  amendment  by those  paragraphs  is  contained in
periodic  reports filed by the Registrant  pursuant to Section 13
or  Section  15(d)  of the 1934  Act  that  are  incorporated  by
reference  into  this  Registration  Statement;  (2) that for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement  relating  to the  securities  offered  therein and the
offering  of such  securities  at that time shall be deemed to be
the  initial  bona fide  offering  thereof and (3) to remove from
registration  by means of a  post-effective  amendment any of the
securities   being   registered   which  remain   unsold  at  the
termination of the Registrant's 1992 Stock Option Plan.

                      B.     The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby
undertakes   that,   for    purposes    of    determining     any
liability  under the 1933 Act,  each  filing of the  Registrant's
annual  report  pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
1934 Act that is incorporated by reference into this Registration
Statement  shall be  deemed  to be a new  registration  statement
relating to the securities  offered therein,  and the offering of
such  securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial
bona fide offering thereof.


                               II-2







                      C.     Insofar   as   indemnification   for
liabilities  arising  under   the  1933  Act  may  be   permitted
to directors,  officers or controlling  persons of the Registrant
pursuant  to  the  foregoing   provisions,   or  otherwise,   the
Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933
Act, and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for  indemnification  against  such  liabilities  (other than the
payment  by the  Registrant  of  expenses  incurred  or paid by a
director,  officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such  director,  officer or  controlling  person in connection
with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the  opinion of its  counsel  the  matter has been  settled by
controlling   precedent,   submit  to  a  court  of   appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is
against  public  policy as  expressed in the 1933 Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Securities    Act   of   1933,    as  amended,    the  Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the  requirements  for  filing on Form  S-8,  and has duly
