acquisitions were made for investment purposes.

                  The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the

                  The text of Item 5 is hereby deleted in its entirety and the
following substituted therefor:

         (a)      As set forth herein, Pebbleton owns 232,500 shares of Common
                  Stock of the Issuer, which represents approximately 4.15% of
                  the outstanding Common Stock (based upon 5,597,544 shares of
                  Common Stock outstanding, as reported in the Issuer's
                  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30,
                  2004).

                  As set forth herein, Mr. Fares may be deemed to beneficially
                  own 232,500 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, which
                  represents approximately 4.15% of the outstanding Common Stock
                  (based upon 5,597,544 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as
                  reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
                  period ending June 30, 2004).

         (b)      Mr. Fares may be deemed to beneficially own and thereby share
                  voting and dispositive power over the shares of Common Stock
                  described herein which are held by Pebbleton. See Item 2.

         (c)      Set forth in Exhibit A to this Amendment No. 13 is a list of
                  all transactions effected in the Issuer's Common Stock by
                  Pebbleton since the filing of Amendment No. 12 on September 1,
                  2004, including (i) the identity of the person effecting
                  transactions in the Issuer's Common Stock; (ii) the date of
                  the transaction; (iii) the amount of securities involved; (iv)
                  the price per share of Common Stock; and (v) where and how the
                  transaction was effected. Other than the transactions
                  described in this Item 5, neither of the Reporting Persons nor
                  to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of their
                  officers or directors, has effected any transaction in the
                  Common Stock since the filing of Amendment No. 12.

         (e)      On September 28, 2004, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the
                  beneficial owners of more than five percent of the outstanding
                  Common Stock (based upon 5,597,544 shares of Common Stock
                  outstanding, as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on
                  Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2004).
