RISK FACTORS
Before you buy shares of our common stock, you should be aware that there
are various risks associated with that purchase, including those described
below. You should consider carefully these risk factors, together with all of
the other information in this prospectus and the documents we have incorporated
by reference in the section "Where You Can Find More Information About Us,"
before you decide to purchase shares of our common stock.
-----------------------------------------------
Risks Associated with Our History of Losses and
Future Need for Capital
-----------------------------------------------
We have a history of losses and, if we do not achieve profitability, we may not
be able to continue our business in the future.
Our sales, marketing, research, development and general and administrative
expenses have resulted in significant losses and are expected to continue to
result in significant losses for the foreseeable future. We have incurred the
following losses since 1997:
Fiscal years ended:
o December 31, 1997 $(10,051,757)
o December 31, 1998 $(13,001,338)
o December 31, 1999 $(16,697,413)
o December 31, 2000 $(24,185,222)
o December 31, 2001 $(32,199,579)
o December 31, 2002 $(26,580,833)
We could be required to cut back or stop operations if we are unable to reduce
cash operating expenses and obtain needed financing.
We have recorded net losses since our inception. These losses are primarily
attributable to the operating expenses incurred by us to design, develop, market
and sell our wearable computer products and to provide general and
administrative support for these operating activities. During these periods, our
revenues and gross margins have not been sufficient to fund these operating
activities. As a result, we have consistently recorded negative cash flows from
operating activities and net losses and had an accumulated deficit of
$131,023,159 at December 31, 2002.
The combination of our operating losses and working capital requirements
has severely impacted our financial position and liquidity. At December 31,
2002, we had unrestricted cash on hand of $1,967,710 and accounts payable and
accrued expenses totaling $4,481,153. Certain of these liabilities are past
their stated terms of payment, including those owed to vendors that provide
services and inventory that we require to execute our business plan. In general,
any company that does not pay its suppliers in a timely manner is at risk of
being forced into an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding instituted by creditors,
which may provide for the liquidation of assets or the reorganization of assets
and debts. We generally believe that we have a reasonably good relationship with
most of our vendors and creditors. However certain of our vendors have filed
legal actions to recover overdue accounts payables and ceased providing services
and products to us. We do not
-2-
believe that these actions will have a material adverse effect on us however
there can be no assurances that other vendors will not pursue similar actions.
During 2002, 2001 and 2000, we funded our operating and investing
activities through our financing activities, which consist primarily of private
placements of common stock, warrant and stock option exercises and borrowings.
We have taken steps that we believe are necessary to improve our operations
and raise additional capital, both of which are needed to enhance our ability to
meet our cash flow needs through December 31, 2003 and thereafter. Beginning in
April 2002 and continuing through the date of this filing, we have performed
reviews of our operations and implemented various cost cutting programs to
significantly reduce our operating expenses. Assuming there are no significant
changes to our business plan, we expect to maintain savings of over 50% from
annualized fourth quarter 2001 levels. In the fourth quarter of 2002, we met our
initial target to reach a quarterly operating expense level of between
$4,000,000 and $5,000,000. Future significant fluctuations may still occur as a
result of non-recurring charges associated with cost-saving initiatives as well
as our research and development activities, which will vary depending
wearable/mobile computer product development cycles during any given period.
Subsequent to these changes, we believe that our staffing and resources
will be sufficient to carry out our business plan for the foreseeable future. In
addition to the cost cutting measures already undertaken, we continue to review
all aspects of our operations and may take additional actions to reduce
operating expenses further.
Even if the above cost cutting initiatives are fully implemented and
maintained, we will still be required to obtain outside financing to supplement
our cash position, operations and inventory procurement. During the period from
January 1, 2003 through the date of this filing, we raised approximately
$6,100,000 in cash through sales of our common stock to institutional investors,
borrowings and warrant exercises, inclusive of the financings included in this
filing. Potential sources of additional financing include private equity
offerings, strategic investments, and various forms of debt financing. We
believe that the combination of cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and
outside funding will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing cash
requirements. This is based both on our historical ability to raise capital and
on debt and equity financings currently available to us. However, there can be
no assurance that we can or will obtain sufficient funds from operations or from
additional financings on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain
sufficient additional financing, we will be required to cut back or stop
operations.
We may face difficulties in obtaining needed financings.
The equity markets, especially for small capitalization technology stocks,
have remained depressed, and the U.S. and world economies have generally been in
a decline or recession. If a sustained decline in the general equity markets,
the price of our common stock, or the U.S. or world economy were to occur, we
could face difficulties in our ability to raise additional capital.
We have historically made several private placements of our common stock
per year, primarily to a limited number of institutional investors who
specialize in making similar types of investments. If these institutional
investors were to choose to not participate in future private placements, we
could face difficulties in our ability to raise additional capital.
-3-
On July 22, 2002, we received notice from Nasdaq that our common stock had
closed below $1 per share for 30 consecutive trading days. Effective October 29,
2002, we were granted a transfer to the Nasdaq SmallCap(R) Market. Effective
January 22, 2003, we were provided an extension until July 17, 2003 for the
stock price to close above $1 for ten consecutive trading days. On January 30,
2003, Nasdaq issued a press release in which it "announced plans to extend a
pilot program governing bid price rules for all Nasdaq National Market(R) and
Nasdaq SmallCap issuers. The proposal will allow issuers that meet heightened
financial requirements to benefit from extended compliance periods for
satisfying minimum bid price requirements. The proposed rule changes would
[amongst other changes] extend the bid price grace period for SmallCap issuers
demonstrating compliance with the core SmallCap initial listing criteria from
180 to up to 540 days (approximately 18 months). Compliance with this standard
will be verified every 180 days. Nasdaq will present the overall plan to the
Securities and Exchange Commission for approval prior to implementing the
proposed changes."
We are currently in compliance with all such listing criteria and we
anticipate that we will remain in compliance in the future. However, there can
be no assurances that we will be able to remain in compliance in the future or
that the SEC will grant the Nasdaq the requisite approval to adopt this
proposal. Prior to the delisting of our common stock, we can appeal Nasdaq for
an extension or for other remedies. If necessary, we intend to fully exercise
all of our rights and options to maintain our listing. If we are unable to
remain on the SmallCap Market, we may be forced to trade on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board or Pink Sheets markets, which would significantly reduce the
liquidity in our and interest of potential investors in purchasing our stock. We
also may face reductions in holdings by institutional holders whose charters may
not allow investment in companies that do not trade on the Nasdaq or other
national exchange. We believe that under this Nasdaq proposal, we would be
eligible to obtain an extension to January 2004 for our stock price to close
above $1 for ten consecutive trading days.
----------------------------------------------------------
Risks Associated with the Industry in Which We Operate
----------------------------------------------------------
Our future revenues and ability to produce new products depend substantially on
the success of the Mobile Assistant(R) and AtigoTM series.
The Mobile Assistant and Atigo series are our principal products and our
success will depend to a large extent upon their commercial acceptance, which
cannot be assured. Additional product development will result in significant
research and development expenses that may be unrecoverable should
commercialization of new products prove unsuccessful. We also could require a
higher level of funding if research and development or sales and marketing
expenses are greater than we anticipate. As with most high technology products,
new models must be introduced periodically for us to remain competitive. There
can be no assurance that these new models can be successfully developed or
marketed or will be commercially accepted.
We have significant commitments to purchase inventory and services in the
future.
We have commitments to purchase inventory, tooling and engineering and
other services from our suppliers and manufacturers related to our current and
future hardware product lines. We expect that we will enter into similar
commitments in the future as we design, develop and procure future wearable
computer product lines.
-4-
In March 2003, we entered into an agreement with IBM under which we were
released of our prior obligation to pay a penalty or procure inventory other
than $4,910,000 in MA V computing units, flat panel displays, peripherals and
component parts. The final pricing provided to us represents a discount from the
original contractual prices. Under the March 2003 agreement, IBM will ship
inventory monthly from March 2003 through December 2003 and we will remit
payments monthly from March 2003 through January 2004.
In addition to the obligation to IBM related to the MA V described above,
we have commitments to purchase computing units, flat panel and head mounted
displays, miscellaneous computing components as well as engineering and other
services from our various vendors related to the MA V, MA TC, Atigo and future
product lines. We believe that, if necessary, the timing and amount of many of
these shipments, services and payments may be adjusted through the payment of
cancellation fees, contract negotiations or the satisfaction of obligations
through the issuance of our equity securities. However, there can be no
assurance that we can successfully modify these contracts or commitments.
Excluding the potential impact of contract modifications, we estimate that
we will make total payments of approximately $5,000,000 during 2003 related to
current inventory commitments, which amount includes the commitment to purchase
the additional MA V products from IBM on a monthly basis during 2003 as
described above. We expect that we will enter into similar inventory and
engineering commitments in the future as we design, develop and procure future
wearable computer product lines.
We may have to lower prices or spend more money to effectively compete against
companies with greater resources than us, which could result in lower revenues
and/or profits.
The success of our products in the marketplace depends on many factors,
including product performance, price, ease of use, support of industry
standards, competing technologies and customer support and service. Given these
factors we cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully. For
example, if our competitors offer lower prices, we could be forced to lower
prices which could result in reduced or negative margins and a decrease in
revenues. If we do not lower prices we could lose sales and market share. In
either case, if we are unable to compete against our main competitors which
include established companies like CDI, ViA Inc., Texas Microsystems, Symbol,
Raytheon, Panasonic and others, we would not be able to generate sufficient
revenues to grow our company or reverse our history of losses.
In addition, we may have to spend more money to effectively compete for
market share, including funds to expand our infrastructure, which is a capital
and time intensive process. Further, if other companies choose to aggressively
compete against us, we may have to reduce our prices and spend more money on
advertising, promotion, trade shows, product development, marketing and overhead
expenses, hiring and retaining personnel, and developing new technologies. These
lower prices and higher expenses would adversely affect our operations and cash
flows.
Currency fluctuations, especially in the Japanese Yen and European Euro, may
significantly increase our expenses and affect our results of operations.
The exchange rates for some local currencies in countries where we operate
may fluctuate in relation to the U.S. dollar. Such fluctuations may have an
adverse effect on our competitive position as well as our expenses, revenues,
earnings, assets or liabilities when local currencies are translated
-5-
into U.S. dollars. We have significant operations in Asia, in particular Japan,
and Europe, in particular Germany. Also, we are party to supplier arrangements
with several companies in Asia and Europe for the production of the Mobile
Assistant series. Our foreign operations, including payments to our suppliers,
are typically funded in the local currencies. Any changes in the value of the
U.S. dollar against these currencies could result in an increase in our reported
expenses or inventory costs or a decrease in our reported revenues which, if
substantial, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and
results of operations.
If our sales and receivables continue to be concentrated among a small number of
our customers, the loss of a customer, a substantial decrease of sales to one of
our customers or a customer's inability to pay amounts owed to us may have a
material adverse effect on our sales, operating results and cash flows.
A significant percentage of our sales has been concentrated among a
relatively small number of customers. For the fiscal year ended December 31,
2002, we had one (1) customer which comprised more than 10% of our total
revenues, representing 16% of total revenues. Additionally, at December 31,
2002, we had two (2) customers which each comprised more than 10% of our total
accounts receivable, representing an aggregate of 64% of total accounts
receivable. There can be no assurance that this concentration of sales and
receivables among customers will not continue in the future. The loss of a
significant customer or a substantial decrease in sales to such a customer would
have a material adverse effect on our sales and operating results. Our
arrangements with certain of our customers, especially those related to the sale
of our wearable computer hardware products, are based on the receipt of purchase
orders and otherwise are not subject to long-term written contracts and
generally may be terminated upon short notice. In addition, these and other
customers may demand price concessions from us that could adversely affect
profit margins. Also, our cash flows may be adversely affected if a customer is
unable or unwilling to repay amounts owed to us.
----------------------------------------------------------
Risk Associated with
Our Internal Operations and Policies
----------------------------------------------------------
Since we do not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future, the
return on your investment will depend upon appreciation of the market price of
your shares.
We have never paid any dividends on our common stock. Our board of
directors does not intend to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future,
but intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations.
As a result, the return on your investment in us will depend upon any
appreciation in the market price of our common stock. The holders of common
stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the board of
directors out of funds legally available for dividend payments. The payment of
dividends, if any, in the future is within the discretion of our board of
directors and will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements and financial
condition, and other relevant factors.
-6-
----------------------------------------------------------
Risks Which May Dilute the Value of Your Xybernaut
Shares or Limit the Effect of Their Voting Power
----------------------------------------------------------
The price of our common stock is highly volatile.
The price of our common stock is highly volatile. During the period from
January 1, 2000 to April 30, 2003 the price of our common stock has ranged from
a high of $29.97 to a low of $0.19. Following periods of volatility in the
market price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has
often been instituted against such a company. If similar litigation were
instituted against us, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of
our management's attention and resources, which could have an adverse effect on
our business. The volatile fluctuations of the market price are based on (1) the
number of shares in the market at the time as well as the number of shares we
may be required to issue in the future, compared to the market demand for our
shares; (2) our performance and meeting expectations of our performance,
including the development and commercialization of our products and proposed
products; (3) market conditions for technology companies in the small
capitalization sector; and (4) general economic and market conditions.
Our executive officers, directors and principal stockholders, together, may
exercise control over all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.
As of April 24, 2003, our executive officers, directors and principal
stockholders beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 4% of our
outstanding shares of common stock. These stockholders, if acting together, may
be able to effectively control most matters requiring approval by our
stockholders. The voting power of these stockholders under certain circumstances
could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of
Xybernaut.
We have recently issued a significant amount of our common stock.
During the period from January 1, 2002 through April 30, 2003, we raised
approximately $26,000,000 in cash through sales of our common stock to
institutional investors and through warrant and stock option exercises. As a
result of our financings and other activities, 69,319,659 shares of common stock
were issued during this period, which number includes 6,916,667 shares of common
stock issued and included on this prospectus. This represents a 116% increase in
the number of shares outstanding as compared to the number of shares outstanding
as of January 1, 2002.
We have 21,567,474 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuances
which can substantially dilute the value of your Xybernaut common stock.
The issuance of reserved shares would dilute the equity interest of
existing stockholders and could have a significant adverse effect on the market
price of our common stock. As of April 30, 2003 we had 21,567,474 shares of
common stock reserved for possible future issuances upon conversion of options
and warrants, which number includes 7,083,333 shares of common stock reserved in
connection with shares underlying warrants included on this prospectus. These
options and warrants are convertible into or exercisable for shares of common
stock at prices that may represent discounts from future market prices of the
common stock. The exercise of these options or warrants could result in
substantial dilution to existing holders of common stock. The sale of the common
stock acquired at a discount could have a negative impact on the trading price
of the common stock and could increase the volatility in the trading price of
the common stock. See the
-7-
section entitled "Dilution" for a summary of the number of shares which could be
issued upon conversion of the outstanding preferred stock at various market
prices.
In addition, we may seek additional financing which may result in the
issuance of additional shares of our capital stock and/or rights to acquire
additional shares of our capital stock. Those additional issuances of capital
would result in a reduction of your percentage interest in Xybernaut.
Anti-takeover measures in our certificate of incorporation could adversely
affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes anti-takeover measures such as
the authority to issue "blank check" preferred stock and the staggered terms of
the members of our board of directors. Those measures could have the effect of
delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control without any action by our
stockholders. In addition, issuance of preferred stock, without stockholder
approval, on those terms as the board of directors may determine, could
adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock, including
the loss of voting control to others.

We will bear the expenses relating to this registration, other than
discounts and commissions, which will be paid by the selling stockholders.
DILUTION
As of April 30, 2003 we had issued and outstanding 128,827,772 shares of
common stock. At that date, there were an additional 21,567,474 shares of common
stock reserved for possible future issuances as follows:
o options to purchase 7,181,068 shares at an exercise price between
$0.24 and $23.38 per share. We have registered the shares issuable
upon exercise of the options under the Securities Act;
o warrants to purchase 11,533,869 shares at a price between $0.43 and
$5.00 per share. Of the 11,533,869 shares, we have previously
registered a total of 4,330,536 shares issuable upon exercise of these
warrants. This prospectus covers an additional 7,083,333 shares of
common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants, which shares will be
freely tradable without restriction (subject to prospectus delivery
-9-
requirements) on the effective date of the registration statement. The
remaining 120,000 shares will be deemed to be "restricted securities"
when issued; and
o 2,852,537 shares issuable upon exercise of options under the Company's
stock incentive plans which have not been granted as of April 30,
2003. We have registered the shares issuable upon exercise of the
options.
The shares which will be deemed "restricted securities" may be sold under
Rule 144. Rule 144 permits sales of "restricted securities" by any person,
whether or not an affiliate of the issuer, after a one year holding period. At
that time, sales can be made subject to the Rule's volume and other limitations
and after two years by non-affiliates without adhering to Rule 144's volume or
other limitations. In general, an "affiliate" is a person with the power to
manage and direct our policies. The SEC has stated that, generally, executive
officers and directors of an entity are deemed affiliates of the issuing entity.

whereby we issued a one-year promissory note in the principal amount of
$1,750,000 bearing an interest rate of 3.5% per annum to Sundial Investments,
Limited. Under the terms of the note and warrant purchase agreement between
Sundial Investments, Limited and us, we agreed, among other things, to issue
warrants to purchase 1,750,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price
of $1.25 per share. These warrants are exercisable for a period of 2 years from
the date of issuance. We also agreed to issue warrants to purchase 2,000,000
shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.43 per share. These
warrants are exercisable for the greater of 6 months from the date of issuance
or 120 days from the date this registration statement is declared effective by
the SEC. We may call up to 100% of all of the warrants issued to Sundial
Investments, Limited if our common stock price is equal to or greater than $2.50

warrants. In connection with the note and warrant purchase agreement, we agreed
to register the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants on

including stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions.
Other than the transactions disclosed above pursuant to which the selling
stockholders received the securities being registered for resale on this
prospectus, the selling stockholders are not affiliated with us and have not had
any material relationship with us or our affiliates during the past three years.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
General
Our authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 6,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par
value $0.01 per share. As of April 30, 2003, we have 128,847,772 shares of
common stock issued and outstanding. We have reserved 21,567,474 shares of
common stock for issuance upon exercise of options and warrants.
Common Stock
Voting
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share
held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Our
certificate of incorporation and by-laws do not provide for cumulative voting
rights in the election of directors. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the
shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect
all of the directors standing for election.
Dividends
Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends as
may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for
that purpose.
-12-
Rights on Liquidation
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of
common stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets remaining after payment
of liabilities.
Pre-emptive or Redemption Rights
Holders of common stock have no preemptive, conversion or redemption
rights. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully-paid and
nonassessable.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 6,000,000 shares of
preferred stock from time to time in one or more series. Our board has the
authority to establish the number of shares to be included in each series, and
to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each
series and the applicable qualifications, limitations or restrictions. The
issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a
change in control. The issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of
earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock,
if any, or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting
rights, of the holders of the common stock. In certain circumstances, the
issuances could have the effect of decreasing the market price of the common
stock.
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not designated any shares of
preferred stock other than the series A, B, C, D and E preferred stock, all of
which have been fully converted into common stock.
Anti-takeover Considerations
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 6,000,000
shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock with
such rights could have the effect of limiting stockholder participation in
certain transactions such as mergers or tender offers and could discourage or
prevent a change in our management. We have no present intention to issue any
additional preferred stock.
We have a classified or staggered board of directors which limits an
outsider's ability to effect a rapid change of control of our board. In
addition, at the 1998 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on September 24, 1998,
our stockholders approved measures to amend our certificate of incorporation and
by-laws, where applicable, to:
o implement an advance notice procedure for the submission of director
nominations and other business to be considered at annual meetings of
stockholders;
o permit only the President, the Vice Chairman of our board, the
Secretary or our board of directors to call special meetings of
stockholders and to limit the business permitted to be conducted at
such meetings to be brought before the meetings by or at the direction
of our board;
o provide that a member of our board of directors may only be removed
for cause by an affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the
voting power of the then outstanding shares entitled to vote generally
in the election of directors voting together as a single class;
-13-
o fix the size of our board of directors at a maximum of twelve
directors, with the authorized number of directors set at ten, and our
board of directors having the sole power and authority to increase or
decrease the number of directors acting by an affirmative vote of at
least a majority of the total number of authorized directors most
recently fixed by our board of directors;
o provide that any vacancy on the board may be filled for the unexpired
term (or for a new term in the case of an increase in the size of the
board) only by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the
remaining directors then in office even if less than a quorum, or by
the sole remaining director;
o eliminate stockholder action by written consent;
o require the approval of holders of 80% of the then outstanding voting
stock and/or the approval of 66 2/3% of the directors for certain
corporate transactions; and
o require an affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of the voting stock in order to
amend or repeal any adopted amendments to the certificate of
incorporation and bylaws adopted at the meeting.
Those measures combined with the ability of our board of directors to issue
"blank check" preferred stock and the staggered terms of the members of our
board of directors, could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a
change in control without any further action by the stockholders. In addition,
the issuance of preferred stock, without stockholder approval, on such terms as
our board may determine, could adversely affect the voting power of the holders
of the common stock, including the loss of voting control to others.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is our Transfer Agent and
Registrar for our common stock.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders and their pledgees, donees, transferees and other
subsequent owners, may offer their shares at various times in one or more of the
following transactions:
o on any U.S. securities exchange on which our common stock may be
listed at the time of sale;
o in the over-the-counter market;
o in privately negotiated transactions;
o in connection with short sales; or
o in a combination of any of the above transactions.
The selling stockholders may offer their shares of common stock at
prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to those
prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices.
The selling stockholders may also sell the shares under Rule 144 instead of
under this prospectus, if Rule 144 is available for those sales.
-14-
The transactions in the shares covered by this prospectus may be effected
by one or more of the following methods:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
solicits purchasers;
o purchases by a broker or dealer as principal, and the resale by that
broker or dealer for its account under this prospectus, including
resale to another broker or dealer;
o block trades in which the broker or dealer will attempt to sell the
shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
principal in order to facilitate the transaction; or
o negotiated transactions between the selling stockholders and
purchasers without a broker or dealer.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or other persons acting on
the behalf of parties that participate in the distribution of the shares may be
deemed to be underwriters. Any commissions or profits they receive on the resale
of the shares may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under
the Securities Act.
As of the date of this prospectus, we are not aware of any agreement,
arrangement or understanding between any broker or dealer and the selling
stockholders with respect to the offer or sale of the shares under this
prospectus.
We have advised the selling stockholders that during the time they are
engaged in distributing shares covered by this prospectus, they must comply with
the requirements of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the
Exchange Act. Under those rules and regulations, they:
o may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our
securities;
o must furnish each broker which offers common stock covered by this
prospectus with the number of copies of this prospectus which are
required by each broker; and
o may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce
any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted
under the Exchange Act.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law allows a company to
indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement under the conditions and limitations described in the
law. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to indemnify our officers,
directors and other agents to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.
Our certificate of incorporation provides that a director is not personally
liable for monetary damages to us or our stockholders for breach of his or her
fiduciary duties as a director. A director will be held liable for a breach of
his or her duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, his or her intentional
misconduct or willful violation of law, actions or inactions not in good faith,
an unlawful stock purchase or payment of a dividend under Delaware law, or
transactions from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. This
limitation of liability does not affect the availability of equitable remedies
against the director including injunctive relief or rescission.
-15-
We have purchased a directors and officers liability and reimbursement
insurance policy that covers liabilities of our directors and officers arising
out of claims based upon acts or omissions in their capacities as directors and
officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion
of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
LEGAL MATTERS
Jenkens & Gilchrist Parker Chapin LLP, New York, New York, a stockholder of
our company, will pass upon the validity of the securities offered hereby.
Martin Eric Weisberg, Esq., a member of the firm, is our Secretary, one of our
Directors, and a stockholder in our company.
EXPERTS

the Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31,

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the
"DGCL") provides, in general, that a corporation incorporated under the laws of
the State of Delaware, such as the registrant, may indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative action by or in
the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at
the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted
in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's
conduct was unlawful. In the case of a derivative action, a Delaware corporation
may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification will be made in
respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person will have been
adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in which such
action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses.
Our certificate of incorporation provides that directors will not be
personally liable for monetary damages to us or our stockholders for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability resulting from a breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, intentional misconduct
or willful violation of law, actions or inactions not in good faith, an unlawful
stock purchase or payment of a dividend under Delaware law, or transactions from
which the director derives improper personal benefit. Such limitation of
liability does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as
injunctive relief or rescission. Our certificate of incorporation also
authorizes us to indemnify our officers, directors and other agents, by bylaws,
agreements or
otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. We have entered
into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and officers which
may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions
contained in our certificate of incorporation or as otherwise permitted under
Delaware law. Each indemnification agreement may require us, among other things,
to indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may
arise by reason of their status or service as a director or officer, against
liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature, and to obtain
directors' and officers' liability insurance if available on reasonable terms.
We maintain directors and officers liability policies that contain a
combined limit of liability of $12,500,000 per policy year.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
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;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the 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 the
registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from
the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
table in the effective registration statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment will be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time will be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(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
offering.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of the issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement will be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time will be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant

requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration
