On May 24, 2002, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) declared the Registration Statement effective.
The Registration Statement was filed to register shares of the Company’s common stock issued to certain parties as a result of a private placement on December 18, 2001.
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company respectfully requests that the Commission withdraw the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3.

In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any shares of its common stock which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all shares of its common stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement which remained unsold as of May 24, 2005.
