We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of non-voting Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, to have such classes and preferences as our Board of Directors may determine from time to time. A total of 18,631,863 common shares were outstanding as of July 31, 2002. No shares of Preferred Stock were outstanding as of July 31, 2002. Common Stock Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote, either in person or by proxy, on all matters that may be voted upon by the owners thereof at a meeting of the shareholders, including the election of directors. The holders of Common Stock (i) have equal, ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (ii) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of Common Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company; (iii) do not have preemptive or redemption provisions applicable thereto; and (iv) are entitled to one non cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all meetings of shareholders. All shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding are, and those offered hereby, when issued, will be fully paid and nonassessable, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof. Preferred Stock As of the date hereof, there are no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock in one or more classes or series with such designations, rights, preferences and restrictions as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the Board of Directors may, without prior shareholder approval, issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the relative voting power or other rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock or the Common Stock. Preferred Stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although the Company has no present intention of issuing any shares of Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that it will not do so in the future. If the Company issues Preferred Stock, such issuance may have a dilutive effect upon the common shareholders, and the purchasers of the securities offered hereby. Transfer Agent The Company has appointed Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., 3200 Cherry Creek Drive, Suite 430, Denver, Colorado 80209 as transfer agent for the Common Stock. Their phone number is (303)282-4800. ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
