ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
COMMON STOCK
GENERAL. The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 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, sinking fund, cumulative, preemptive or other subscription rights
and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Common Stock.
3
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.During the last two fiscal years, 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 Company is the owner of 200,000 unrestricted shares of the
Company's common stock.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Nevada 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 Nevada law.
The Company's Bylaws provide indemnification for any present or former director,
advisor director or officer of the Company, any person who served in any such
capacity at the Company's request in another corporation, partnership joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and any person
nominated or designated by the Board of Directors to serve in any of the above
mentioned capacities (the "Indemnitee") against all judgments, penalties
(including excise and similar taxes), fines, amounts paid in settlement and
reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with any threatened, pending
or contemplated action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, arbitrative or investigative, any appeal in such an action, suit
or proceeding, and any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such an
action, suit or proceeding ("Proceeding") in which the Indemnitee was, is or is
threatened to be named a defendant or respondent, by reason, in whole or in
part, of his serving or having served, or having been nominated or designated to
serve, in any of the capacities referred to above, if it is determined that the
Indemnitee conducted himself in good faith, reasonable believed that his conduct
was in the Company's best interest (or at least not opposed to the Company's
best interest in certain cases), or in the case of any criminal proceeding, had
no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. If the Indemnitee
is found liable to the Company or is found liable on the basis that personal
benefit was improperly obtained, the Bylaws limit the indemnification to the
reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the
Proceeding. The Bylaws do not provide indemnification in respect of any
proceeding in which the Indemnitee has been found liable for willful or
intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Company. The
indemnification provided by the Bylaws is applicable whether or not negligence
or gross negligence of the Indemnitee is alleged or proven. The indemnification
is not exclusive of, and does not preclude, any other rights to which an
Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under the Company's Articles of
Incorporation, any law, agreement or vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise, or under any policy or policies of insurance purchased
and maintained by the Company on behalf of any Indemnitee as to action in any
capacity.
4
The provisions affecting personal liability do not abrogate a director's or
officer's fiduciary duty to the Company and its shareholders, but eliminate
personal liability for monetary damages for breach of that duty. The provisions
regarding indemnification do not, however, eliminate or limit the liability of
an officer or director for failing to act in good faith, for acting in a manner
not in the Company's best interest, for engaging in willful or intentional
misconduct, fraud or knowingly violating a law, for authorizing the illegal
payment of a dividend or repurchase of stock, for obtaining a personal benefit
in money, property or services to which the officer or director is not legally
entitled or for violations of the federal securities laws including those
regarding "short-swing" profits. The provisions also do not eliminate or limit
the liability of a director for breaching a director's duty of loyalty, which is
generally described as the duty not to engage in any transaction which involves
a conflict between the interest of the Company and those of the director.

ITEM 9. 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 being registered
that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
5
(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.

requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration
