         This prospectus supplement will be used by the holders of common stock,

                              --------------------

         The table below supplements the information set forth under the caption
"Resales by Selling Stockholders" in the Prospectus and, to the extent
inconsistent therewith, amends or supersedes the table appearing under that
caption in the Prospectus. Further, where the name of a Selling Stockholder
identified in the table below also appears in the table in the Prospectus, the
information set forth in the table below regarding that Selling Stockholder
supersedes the information in the Prospectus.

         The Selling Stockholders named in the table below acquired, in the
aggregate, Warrants to purchase 466,980 Shares through transfers of Warrants to
purchase 466,980 Shares from Selling Stockholders named in the Prospectus. The
table sets forth the following information with respect to each Selling
Stockholder named herein as of August 6, 2003: (i) the name of the Selling
Stockholder; (ii) the number of Shares the Selling Stockholder beneficially
owned before this offering; (iii) the number of Shares the Selling Stockholder
is offering hereby; (iv) the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
that the Selling Stockholder will beneficially own, assuming that the Selling
Stockholder sells all of the Shares held thereby subject to this offering; (v)
that number of shares as a percentage of the total number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Except as set forth in the table below, none of the Selling
Stockholders named herein has had a material relationship with us within the
last three years other than as a result of the ownership of the Shares, Warrants
or other securities of the Company. The information in the table below was
furnished to us by the Selling Stockholders listed in the table on or before
August 6, 2003.

- ---------- (1) We have computed "beneficial ownership" in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for purposes of this table. Therefore, the table reflects a person as having "beneficial ownership" of shares of Common Stock if such person has the right to acquire such shares within 60 days of August 6, 2003. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock held by each person or group of persons named above, we have assumed to be outstanding any security which such person or persons has or have the right to acquire within that 60-day period. All of the Warrants are currently exercisable and, therefore, the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Shares of Common Stock underlying such Warrants pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d). However, securities that may be acquired within that 60-day period are not deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this table, we have not included the Shares underlying Warrants and registered hereby under the column "Securities Beneficially Owned Prior to Offering--Common Stock." Instead, such Shares are reflected under the column "Securities Offered Hereby." Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, the Company believes, based on information supplied by such persons, that the persons named in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock which they beneficially own. (2) Represents the maximum number of Shares issuable to each Selling Stockholder upon exercise in full of Warrants issued or issuable thereto. (3) Assumes the eventual sale of all Shares by each Selling Stockholder. There can be no assurance that any Selling Stockholder will sell any or all of such Shares owned thereby or issuable thereto. (4) Warrants to purchase 150,000 Shares were acquired pursuant to a transfer from Kim R. Baker, who no longer holds Shares or Shares subject to Warrants subject to resale pursuant to the Prospectus. (5) Warrants to purchase 190,000 Shares were acquired pursuant to a transfer from Brooke C. Moore, who no longer holds Shares or Shares subject to Warrants subject to resale pursuant to the Prospectus. (6) Warrants to purchase 126,980 Shares were acquired pursuant to a transfer from John H. Dakin. * Less than 1%. 2 INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.
