                                EXPLANATORY NOTE


         We are filing this  Amendment #1 on Form 10-Q/A (this  "Amendment")  in
response  to  comments  received  by us from  the  Staff of the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  (the "Staff").  This Amendment  amends and replaces in its
entirety our  disclosure in Item 4 of our Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter  ended on June 30,  2005,  filed on August 5,  2005 (the  "Report")  and
Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.

         Except to the extent expressly set forth herein,  this Amendment speaks
as of the original filing date of our Report and has not been updated to reflect
events  occurring  subsequent  to the  original  filing  date  other  than those
required  to  reflect  the  effects  of the  comments  received  by  the  Staff.
Accordingly,  this Amendment should be read in conjunction with our filings made
with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  subsequent  to the filing of the
Report, including any amendments to those filings.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

         As of the end of the period  covered by this report,  an evaluation was
performed under the supervision  and with the  participation  of our management,
including the President  and Chairman of the Board and  Secretary-Treasurer,  of
the  effectiveness  of the design and operation of our  disclosure  controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934). Based on that evaluation,  the President and Chairman of the Board and
Secretary-Treasurer  concluded that our  disclosure  controls and procedures are
effective to ensure that the  information  required to be disclosed is recorded,
processed,  summarized  and reported  within the time  periods  specified in the
Securities and Exchange  Commission's  rules and forms,  and is accumulated  and
communicated  to  management,  including the President and Chairman of the Board
and  Secretary-Treasurer,  as appropriate,  to allow timely decisions  regarding
such required disclosure.

         During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005, there were no changes to
the internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.
