Item 5. Other Events.

Between August 4, 2003 and August 8, 2003, we issued 500,000 shares of our registered common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants by institutional investors who participated in our private placement of common stock in September, 2002. The warrant exercise resulted in gross proceeds of $1,000,000 to us. These funds will be used for general corporate purposes and, together with $700,000 of proceeds from similar warrants recently exercised by another investor, has increased our cash on hand by a total of $1,700,000. These shares were previously registered to permit public trading pursuant to a Form SB-2 we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that became effective February 19, 2003. This completes the exercise of all warrants whose underlying shares were registered under that registration statement.
