Item 4. Description of Securities.

     Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     The validity of the securities being registered hereunder is being passed upon for us by Greenberg Traurig, P.A., Miami, Florida. Cesar Alvarez, the Chief Executive Officer of Greenberg Traurig, P.A., is one of our directors. As of May 27, 2008, Mr. Alvarez beneficially owns 10,000 shares and options to acquire 76,002 shares of our common stock, of which 63,556 are currently, or within 60 days of such date will be, exercisable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Florida Business Corporation Act permits a corporation to indemnify the following persons (using a case-by-case determination) against liabilities arising in the following circumstances:

     (i) any person who was or is party to any proceeding by reason of his or her service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation; or

     (ii) any person serving in such capacity, at the request of the corporation, for another corporation or business entity.

     To be indemnified, a person seeking indemnification must have acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal action or proceeding, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Under Florida law the corporation can indemnify such a person who is a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation against expenses and amounts paid in settlement which were actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of the proceeding. Such indemnification may not exceed the board of directors’ estimated expense of litigating the matter to a conclusion. No indemnification shall be made in respect of any issue as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable unless, and only to the extent that, a court shall determine, in view of all circumstances, that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

     Under the Florida Business Corporation Act, indemnification for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the defense of any proceeding is mandatory to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent is successful in such defense. Florida law also allows a corporation to provide any other or further indemnification or advancement of expenses to its directors, officers, employees or agents; however such indemnification or advancement of expenses may not extend to situations where a final adjudication establishes that such person’s actions, or omissions to act, were material to the cause of action so adjudicated and constitute:

     (i) a criminal violation, unless such person had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful;

     (ii) a transaction from which such person derived an improper personal benefit;

     (iii) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which the director would be liable for authorizing an improper distribution; or

     (iv) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, or in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder.

     The amended and restated articles of incorporation of the registrant provide that the registrant shall indemnify and may advance expenses to its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the current law. The registrant has secured insurance covering the registrant and its directors and officers and those of its principal subsidiaries and affiliate companies against certain liabilities.

     The registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each member of its board of directors and its executive officers. The indemnification agreements require, among other things, that the registrant indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law and advance to each indemnified director and executive officer all related expenses, subject to reimbursement if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not permitted. Under the indemnification agreements, the registrant must also indemnify and advance all expenses incurred by an indemnified director or executive officer seeking to enforce his or her rights under the indemnification agreements and purchase and generally maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance during the term, and for a period of five years following the termination, of each director’s and executive officer’s employment. Although the indemnification agreements offer substantially the same scope of coverage afforded by law, they provide greater assurance to directors and executive officers that indemnification will be available, because, as contracts, they cannot be modified unilaterally in the future by the board of directors or the stockholders to eliminate the rights they provide.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits

     See “Exhibit Index” on page II-1 below.

Item 9. Undertakings

(a)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

	(i)		To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”);
	(ii)		To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent not more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
	(iii)		To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however , that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

(2)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

     (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
