Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On August 30, 2000, the Issuer registered 4,669,522 shares of its Common Stock on Form 10-SB.  At that time, H.M. Stein Associates held 834,450 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  Originally, working and investment capital of H.M. Stein Associates was the source of the funds for the purchases that were made prior to this registration, and no part of the funds were borrowed or otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the Common Stock.  Also included on the same registration statement were 30,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock held directly by Mr. Stein, and 50,700 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock held by Mr. Stein’s wife.  In addition to the foregoing, from time to time Mr. Stein receives stock options under the Issuer’s 1997 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) as compensation for his services to the Issuer as its President and Chief Executive Officer.  From 2000 to 2004 [have there been any other open market purchases since then?], Mr. Stein purchased 20,700 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock in the open market.  On December 21, 2005, the Issuer’s Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of certain unvested stock options previously awarded to employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors under the Stock Option Plan.  The vesting provision provided Herbert M. Stein with 655,000 exercisable options which increased Mr. Stein’s total exercisable options as of December 31, 2005 to 1,445,000 options.  The Board only accelerated the vesting of those options having exercise prices in excess of $2.00 per share and did not accelerate the vesting of any options with exercise prices below $2.00 per share.  

Finally, on August 17, 2006 the Board of Directors granted Mr. Stein 300,000 fully vested options, increasing Mr. Stein’s total exercisable options as of December 31, 2006 to 1,745,000.
