      On July 29, 1999, the Registrant's Board of Directors authorized a 20%
stock dividend to holders of its shares of Common Stock, fixing September 3,
1999 as the record date at 5:00 P.M. (New York time) for the dividend. Holders
of the Registrant's Common Stock on the record date are entitled to receive one
share for each five shares of Registrant's Common Stock held. Registrant will
not issue fractional shares, but, instead, will settle fractional shares by cash
payments based on the market value on the record date. The Registrant has
outstanding warrants and options. The issuance of the dividend shares will cause
certain adjustments to be made to the exercise prices, numbers of shares and,
where redemption is applicable, the market price required to be maintained to
"trigger" the Registrant's right to redeem the warrants. Various changes to the
indicated securities of the Registrant are described below:
