ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES COMMON STOCK GENERAL. The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share. The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the Common Stock. The holders of the Common Stock as such have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Common Stock. VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the results that the holders of shares having more than fifty percent (50%) of the votes for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. DIVIDEND POLICY. To date, the Company has not paid any dividends on its Common Stock. The payment of dividends, if any, in the future is within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company's earnings, its capital requirements and financial condition and other relevant factors. The Board does not intend to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business operations. ITEM 5. INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL Legal counsel for the Registrant, David M. Loev, Attorney at Law is the owner of 75,000 shares of free-trading common stock. ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Delaware law authorizes a corporation to indemnify directors, officers, employees or agents of the corporation in non-derivative suits if such party acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, as determined in accordance with Delaware law.

UNDERTAKINGS (a) The registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sells are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement 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 liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be treated as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering. (b) 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 shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) 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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida on the 31st day of July, 2003.
