INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered

The following description of our securities and provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws is only a summary. You should also refer to the copies of our articles and bylaws, copies of which have been incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Form 8-A. The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001. As of August 24, 2007, 27,026,756 shares of common stock were deemed outstanding and held of record by 121 stockholders.
 
Under the articles of incorporation and bylaws, holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock, on the basis of one vote per share, have the right to vote for the election of the members of the board of directors and the right to vote on all other matters, except those matters on which a separate class of stockholders vote by class to the exclusion of the shares of common stock. Holders of common stock do not have any preemptive, subscription or conversion rights.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends declared by the board of directors out of legally available funds. Since our inception, we have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We presently intend to retain future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, common stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets legally available for distribution after payment of all debts and other liabilities, subject to the prior rights of any holders of outstanding shares of preferred stock, if any.
