          Application for Withdrawal of Registration Statements on Form S-1 and
          Form 8-A
          Registration Number: 333-87273
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Ms. Losert:

           Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the undersigned registrant (the "Registrant") hereby applies for
an order granting the immediate withdrawal of its Registration Statements on
Form S-1 and Form 8-A (the "Registration Statements").  The Registration
Statement on Form S-1 was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on September 17, 1999 and subsequently amended
on October 29, 1999 and March 20, 2000.  The Registration Statement on Form
8-A was filed with the Commission on October 8, 1999.

          Pursuant to the Registration Statements, the Registrant proposed to
register up to 3,100,000 of its common shares, without par value (the
"Shares"), for issuance to the public with a proposed maximum offering price
of $14.00 per Share.  The Registrant believes that the terms currently
obtainable in the public marketplace are not sufficiently attractive to
warrant proceeding with the sale of the Shares at this time.  The offering of
the Shares would be a discretionary financing for the Registrant, and the
Registrant does not believe that completing a discretionary financing on
unfavorable terms would be in the best interests of the Registrant and its
shareholders.  No securities have been sold under the Registration Statements.

          Accordingly, the Registrant requests an order granting the
withdrawal of both Registration Statements, as amended, including all
exhibits thereto, be issued by the Commission as soon as possible on the
grounds that the withdrawal is consistent with the public interest and the
protection of investors, as contemplated by Rule 477(a).

          Please provide the Registrant a facsimile copy of the order
consenting to the withdrawal of the Registration Statements as soon as it is
available.  The facsimile number of the Registrant is (614) 880-1636.

          If you have any questions regarding the foregoing application for
withdrawal, please contact me at (614) 464-6323.  Thank you for your time and
assistance.

                                          Very truly yours,


                                          /s/ Susan E. Brown
                                          Susan E. Brown
