SEC.  You  should  rely only on the  information  provided  or  incorporated  by

                                   THE COMPANY

         The Quigley  Corporation (the "Company" and herein referred to as "we",
"us" and "our") isa Nevada  corporation  which was  organized on August 24, 1989
and commenced business operations in October 1989.

         Headquartered   in   Doylestown,   Pennsylvania,   we  are  a   leading
manufacturer, marketer and distributor of a diversified range of homeopathic and
health products which comprise the Cold Remedy, Health and Wellness and Contract
Manufacturing  segments.  The  Company  is also  involved  in the  research  and
development  of  potential  prescription  products  that  comprise  the  Ethical
Pharmaceutical segment.


                                       1



         Our business is the development,  manufacture, sale and distribution of
over the counter  (OTC) cold remedy  products,  proprietary  health and wellness
products through our direct selling  subsidiary and the research and development
of natural-source derived pharmaceuticals.

         Cold-Eeze(R)  is one of our key cold remedy OTC products whose benefits
are derived from our proprietary zinc formulation.  The product's  effectiveness
has  been  substantiated  in two  double-blind  clinical  studies  proving  that
Cold-Eeze(R)  reduces the duration  and severity of the common cold  symptoms by
nearly half. The Cold Remedy segment,  where  Cold-Eeze(R)  is  represented,  is
reviewed  regularly  to  realize  any  new  consumer  opportunities  in  flavor,
convenience  and  packaging  to help improve  market share for the  Cold-Eeze(R)
product.  Additionally, we are constantly active in exploring and developing new
products  consistent  with our brand  image  and  standard  of  proven  consumer
benefit.

         Effective October 1, 2004, we acquired  substantially all of the assets
of JoEl,  Inc., the previous  manufacturer of the  Cold-Eeze(R)  lozenge product
assuring a future manufacturing  capability necessary to support the business of
the  Cold  Remedy  segment.   This  manufacturing  entity,  now  called  Quigley
Manufacturing  Inc.  ("QMI"),  our wholly  owned  subsidiary,  will  continue to
produce  lozenge  product  along  with  performing  such  operational  tasks  as
warehousing and shipping our Cold-Eeze(R)  products. In addition, QMI produces a
variety of hard and organic candy for sale to third party  customers in addition
to performing contract manufacturing activities for non-related entities.

         Our  Health  and   Wellness   segment  is   operated   through   Darius
International Inc. ("Darius"), our wholly owned subsidiary,  which was formed in
January 2000 to introduce new products to the  marketplace  through a network of
independent distributor representatives. Darius is a direct selling organization
specializing in proprietary  nutritional and dietary supplement based health and
wellness products.  The formation of Darius has provided us with diversification
in both the method of product  distribution  and the  broader  range of products
available  to the  marketplace,  serving  as a balance to the  seasonal  revenue
cycles of the Cold-Eeze(R) branded products.

         In January 2001, we formed an Ethical Pharmaceutical  segment,  Quigley
Pharma Inc.  ("Quigley  Pharma"),  that is under the  direction of its Executive
Vice President and Chairman of its Medical  Advisory  Committee.  Quigley Pharma
was formed for the purpose of developing  naturally derived  prescription drugs.
Quigley  Pharma is currently  undergoing  research and  development  activity in
compliance  with regulatory  requirements.  At this time, five patents have been
issued and assigned to us resulting from research activity of Quigley Pharma. In
certain  instances  where a critical mass of positive  scientific  data has been
established  for compounds  that we do not envision  bringing to market,  we may
decide to sell or license our technology.

         Our mailing address is PO Box 1349, Doylestown, PA 18901. Our telephone
number is (215) 345-0919.


                                  RISK FACTORS

         AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK  INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.  THE
RISK  FACTORS  LISTED  BELOW ARE THOSE THAT WE  CONSIDER  TO BE  MATERIAL  TO AN
INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK AND THOSE WHICH, IF REALIZED, COULD HAVE MATERIAL
ADVERSE EFFECTS ON OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AS
SPECIFICALLY  DISCUSSED  BELOW.  IF SUCH AN ADVERSE  EVENT  OCCURS , THE TRADING


                                       2


PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD DECLINE,  AND YOU COULD LOSE ALL OR PART OF YOUR
INVESTMENT.  BEFORE  YOU  INVEST IN OUR  COMMON  STOCK,  YOU  SHOULD BE AWARE OF
VARIOUS RISKS,  INCLUDING THOSE DESCRIBED BELOW.  YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY  CONSIDER
THESE RISK  FACTORS,  TOGETHER  WITH ALL OF THE OTHER  INFORMATION  INCLUDED  OR
INCORPORATED  BY  REFERENCE  IN THIS  PROSPECTUS,  BEFORE YOU DECIDE  WHETHER TO
PURCHASE  OUR  COMMON  STOCK.   THIS  SECTION  INCLUDES  OR  REFERS  TO  CERTAIN
FORWARD-LOOKING   STATEMENTS.  YOU  SHOULD  REFER  TO  THE  EXPLANATION  OF  THE
QUALIFICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON SUCH  FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS DISCUSSED ON
PAGE 11.

         WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND LIMITED  WORKING  CAPITAL AND WE EXPECT
TO INCREASE OUR SPENDING.

         We have  experienced  net  losses  for three of our past  seven  fiscal
years. Although we earned net income of approximately  $3,217,000,  $453,000 and
$675,000, respectively, in our most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2005,
December 31, 2004 and 2003, we incurred net losses of $6,454,000, $5,196,000 and
$4,204,000,  respectively, in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002, December
31, 2000 and December 31, 1999.  In the fiscal year ended  December 31, 2001, we
earned net income of $216,000,  but that amount included net settled  litigation
payments paid to us of  approximately  $700,000 related to licensing fees. As of
December 31, 2005, we had working capital of approximately $20,682,000. Since we
continue to increase our spending on research and development in connection with
Quigley Pharma's product development,  we are uncertain whether we will generate
sufficient revenues to meet expenses or to operate profitably in the future.

         WE HOLD PATENTS WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DEVELOP INTO PHARMACEUTICAL
MEDICATIONS.

         Our success depends in part on Quigley Pharma's ability to research and
develop prescription medications based on our patents which are:

         o        A Patent (No.  6,555,573 B2) entitled  "Method and Composition

                  extends through March 27, 2021.

         o        A Patent (No.  6,592,896 B2) entitled  "Medicinal  Composition
                  and Method of Using It" (for Treatment of Sialorrhea and other
                  Disorders) for a product to relieve  Sialorrhea  (drooling) in
                  patients  suffering from Amyotrophic  Lateral Sclerosis (ALS),
                  otherwise  known as Lou Gehrig's  Disease.  The patent extends
                  through August 6, 2021.

         o        A Patent (No. 6,596,313 B2) entitled  "Nutritional  Supplement
                  and Method of Using It" for a product  to  relieve  Sialorrhea
                  (drooling)  in patients  suffering  from  Amyotrophic  Lateral
                  Sclerosis (ALS),  otherwise known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. The
                  patent extends through April 15, 2022.

         o        A Patent (No.  6,753,325 B2) entitled  "Composition and Method
                  for   Prevention,   Reduction   and   Treatment  of  Radiation
                  Dermatitis,"  a composition  for the  preventing,  reducing or
                  treating  radiation  dermatitis.  The patent  extends  through
                  November 5, 2021.

                                       3


         o        A Patent (No. 6,827,945 B2) entitled "Nutritional Supplement &
                  Methods  of  Using  Same"  for a  naturally  derived  compound
                  developed   for  the   treatment  of  arthritis   and  related
                  inflammatory disorders.  The patent extends through August 22,
                  2023.

         These potential new products are in the development stage and we cannot
give any assurances that we can develop  commercially viable products from these
patent applications. Prior to any new product being ready for sale, we will have
to commit substantial resources for research, development,  preclinical testing,
clinical  trials,  manufacturing  scale-up  and  regulatory  approval.  We  face
significant  technological  risks inherent in developing these products.  We may
abandon some or all of our proposed new products before they become commercially
viable.  Even if we develop and obtain  approval of a new product,  if we cannot
successfully  commercialize  it in a timely  manner,  our business and financial
condition may be materially adversely affected.

         WE WILL NEED TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL  CAPITAL TO SUPPORT LONG-TERM PRODUCT
DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION PROGRAMS.

         Our ability to achieve and sustain operating  profitability  depends in
large part on our ability to commence,  execute and complete  clinical  programs
for, and obtain additional  regulatory approvals for,  prescription  medications
developed by Quigley  Pharma,  particularly  in the U.S.  and Europe.  We cannot
assure you that we will ever obtain such approvals or achieve significant levels
of sales.  Our current  sales  levels of  Cold-Eeze(R)  products  and health and
wellness products may not generate all the funds we anticipate will be needed to
support  our  current  plans  for  product  development.  We may need to  obtain
additional   financing  to  support  our  long-term   product   development  and
commercialization  programs.  We may seek  additional  funds through  public and
private stock offerings,  arrangements with corporate partners, borrowings under
lines of credit or other sources.

         The amount of capital we may need to complete  product  development  of
Quigley Pharma's products will depend on many factors, including;

         o        the  cost  involved  in  applying  for and  obtaining  FDA and
                  international regulatory approvals;

         o        whether  we elect to  establish  partnering  arrangements  for
                  development,   sales,  manufacturing  and  marketing  of  such
                  products;

         o        the level of future sales of our  Cold-Eeze(R)  and health and
                  wellness products,  expense levels for our international sales
                  and marketing efforts;

         o        whether we can establish and maintain  strategic  arrangements
                  for  development,  sales,  manufacturing  and marketing of our
                  products; and

         o        whether any or all of our outstanding options and warrants are
                  exercised and the timing and amount of these exercises.

         Many of the foregoing factors are not within our control. If we need to
raise additional funds and such funds are not available on reasonable  terms, we
may have to reduce our capital  expenditures,  scale back our development of new
products,   reduce  our  workforce  and   out-license  to  others   products  or


                                       4


technologies  that we  otherwise  would  seek to  commercialize  ourselves.  Any
additional  equity  financing  will be  dilutive to  stockholders,  and any debt
financing, if available, may include restrictive covenants.

         OUR  CURRENT  PRODUCTS  AND  POTENTIAL  NEW  PRODUCTS  ARE  SUBJECT  TO
EXTENSIVE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION.

         Our  business  is  regulated  by  various  agencies  of the  states and
localities  where our products  are sold.  Governmental  regulations  in foreign
countries  where we plan to commence or expand  sales may prevent or delay entry
into  a  market  or  prevent  or  delay  the   introduction,   or  require   the
reformulation,  of certain  of our  products.  In  addition,  we cannot  predict
whether new domestic or foreign  legislation  regulating our activities  will be
enacted.  Any new  legislation  could  have a  material  adverse  effect  on our
business, financial condition and operations. Non-compliance with any applicable
requirements  may subject us or the  manufacturers of our products to sanctions,
including warning letters, fines, product recalls and seizures.

         COLD  REMEDY AND  HEALTH  AND  WELLNESS  PRODUCTS.  The  manufacturing,
processing,  formulation, packaging, labeling and advertising of our cold remedy
and health and wellness  products are subject to regulation  by several  federal
agencies, including:

         o        the FDA;

         o        the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC");

         o        the Consumer Product Safety Commission;

         o        the United States Department of Agriculture;

         o        the United States Postal Service;

         o        the United States Environmental Protection Agency; and

         o        the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

         In particular,  the FDA regulates the safety, labeling and distribution
of dietary supplements,  including vitamins, minerals and herbs, food additives,
food supplements, over-the-counter and prescription drugs and cosmetics. The FTC
also has  overlapping  jurisdiction  with the FDA to regulate the  promotion and
advertising  of  vitamins,  over-the-counter  drugs,  cosmetics  and  foods.  In
addition,  our cold remedy products are homeopathic remedies which are regulated
by the Homeopathic  Pharmacopoeia of the United States  ("HPUS").  HPUS sets the
standards for source,  composition and preparation of homeopathic remedies which
are officially recognized in the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1938.

         QUIGLEY PHARMA. The preclinical  development,  clinical trials, product
manufacturing  and  marketing  of Quigley  Pharma's  potential  new products are
subject  to  federal  and  state  regulation  in the  United  States  and  other
countries.  Clinical trials and product  marketing and manufacturing are subject
to the rigorous review and approval  processes of the FDA and foreign regulatory
authorities.  Obtaining FDA and other required  regulatory  approvals is lengthy


                                       5


and  expensive.  Typically,  obtaining  regulatory  approval for  pharmaceutical
products requires  substantial  resources and takes several years. The length of
this process depends on the type,  complexity and novelty of the product and the
nature of the disease or other  indication  to be treated.  Preclinical  studies
must  comply  with FDA  regulations.  Clinical  trials must also comply with FDA
regulations  and may require large numbers of test subjects,  complex  protocols
and possibly lengthy follow-up periods. Consequently, satisfaction of government
regulations  may take several years,  may cause delays in introducing  potential
new products for  considerable  periods of time and may require  imposing costly
procedures upon our activities.  If we cannot obtain regulatory  approval of new
products in a timely manner or at all we could be materially adversely affected.
Even if we obtain regulatory approval of new products,  such approval may impose
limitations  on the indicated  uses for which the products may be marketed which
could also materially  adversely  affect our business,  financial  condition and
future operations.

         OUR BUSINESS IS VERY COMPETITIVE AND INCREASED COMPETITION COULD HAVE A
SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON OUR EARNINGS.

         Both  the   non-prescription   healthcare  product  and  pharmaceutical
industries are highly  competitive.  Many of our competitors have  substantially
greater  capital  resources,  research and  development  staffs,  facilities and
experience  than we do.  These and other  entities  may have or may  develop new
technologies.  These  technologies  may be used to develop products that compete
with ours.

         We believe that our primary cold remedy  product,  Cold-Eeze(R),  has a
competitive  advantage  over  other  cold  remedy  products  because it has been
clinically  proven to reduce the severity and duration of common cold  symptoms.
We believe  Darius has an  advantage  over its  competitors  because it directly
sells its proprietary health and wellness products through its extensive network
of independent  distributors.  Competition in Quigley Pharma's  expected product
areas  would most  likely come from large  pharmaceutical  companies  as well as
other  companies,  universities  and research  institutions,  many of which have
resources far in excess of our resources.

         The Company believes that its ability to compete depends on a number of
factors,  including price, product quality,  availability,  reliability and name
recognition  of its cold  remedy,  health  and  wellness  products  and  Quigley
Pharma's ability to successfully  develop and market  prescription  medications.
There can be no assurance  that we will be able to compete  successfully  in the
future. If we are unable to compete, our earnings may be significantly impacted.

         OUR FUTURE  SUCCESS  IS  DEPENDENT  ON THE  CONTINUED  SERVICES  OF KEY
PERSONNEL INCLUDING OUR CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS,  PRESIDENT AND CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER.

         Our future  success  depends in large part on the continued  service of
our key personnel.  In  particular,  the loss of the services of Guy J. Quigley,
our Chairman of the Board,  President and Chief  Executive  Officer could have a
material adverse effect on our operations.  We have an employment agreement with
Mr.  Quigley which expired on December 31, 2005.  Our future  success and growth
also depends on our ability to continue to attract,  motivate and retain  highly
qualified employees. If we are unable to attract,  motivate and retain qualified
employees, our business and operations could be materially adversely affected.

         OUR FUTURE  SUCCESS  DEPENDS ON THE CONTINUED  EMPLOYMENT OF RICHARD A.
ROSENBLOOM, M.D., PH.D., WITH QUIGLEY PHARMA.

                                       6


         Quigley Pharma's potential new products are being developed through the
efforts  of Dr.  Rosenbloom.  The loss of his  services  could  have a  material
adverse effect on our product development and future operations.

         OUR FUTURE  SUCCESS IS DEPENDENT  ON THE  CONTINUED  ACCEPTANCE  OF THE
DIRECT  SELLING   PHILOSOPHY,   THE  MAINTENANCE  OF  OUR  NETWORK  OF  EXISTING
INDEPENDENT  DISTRIBUTOR  REPRESENTATIVES  AND  THE  RECRUITMENT  OF  ADDITIONAL
SUCCESSFUL INDEPENDENT DISTRIBUTOR REPRESENTATIVES.

         Darius markets and sells herbal  vitamins and dietary  supplements  for
the  human   condition   through   its   network  of   independent   distributor
representatives.    Its   products   are   sold   to   independent   distributor
representatives  who either use the products for their own personal  consumption
or resell them to consumers. The independent distributor representatives receive
compensation  for  sales  achieved  by  means  of  a  commission   structure  or
compensation  plan on certain  product sales of certain  personnel  within their
downstream independent distributor representative network. Since the independent
distributor  representatives  are not  employees  of  Darius,  they are under no
obligation to continue buying and selling  Darius'  products and the loss of key
high-level   distributors   could  negatively   impact  our  future  growth  and
profitability.

         OUR FUTURE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON THE CONTINUED SALES OF OUR PRINCIPAL PRODUCT.

         For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, our Cold-Eeze(R)  products
represented approximately 55% of our total sales. While we have diversified into
health and wellness products,  our line of Cold-Eeze(R) products continues to be
a major part of our  business.  Accordingly,  we have to depend on the continued
acceptance of Cold-Eeze(R) products by our customers.  However,  there can be no
assurance  that our  Cold-Eeze(R)  products  will  continue  to  receive  market
acceptance.  The inability to  successfully  commercialize  Cold-Eeze(R)  in the
future,  for any reason,  would have a material  adverse effect on our financial
condition, prospects and ability to continue operations.

         WE HAVE A  CONCENTRATION  OF  SALES  TO AND  ACCOUNTS  RECEIVABLE  FROM
SEVERAL LARGE CUSTOMERS.

         Although we have a broad range of customers  that  includes  many large
wholesalers,  mass  merchandisers and multiple outlet pharmacy chains,  our five
largest customers account for a significant  percentage of our sales. These five
customers  accounted  for 29% of total sales for the fiscal year ended  December
31, 2005 and 29% of total sales for the fiscal year ended  December 31, 2004. In
addition,  customers  comprising the five largest accounts  receivable  balances
represented  47% and 48% of total accounts  receivable  balances at December 31,
2005 and 2004,  respectively.  We extend credit to our  customers  based upon an
evaluation  of their  financial  condition  and  credit  history,  and we do not
generally require collateral. If one or more of these large customers cannot pay
us, the write-off of their  accounts  receivable  would have a material  adverse
effect on our operations and financial  condition.  The loss of sales to any one
or more of these large  customers  would also have a material  adverse effect on
our operations and financial condition.

         WE ARE  DEPENDENT ON  THIRD-PARTY  MANUFACTURERS  AND SUPPLIERS FOR OUR
HEALTH AND WELLNESS  PRODUCTS AND THIRD-PARTY  SUPPLIERS FOR CERTAIN OF OUR COLD
REMEDY PRODUCTS.

                                       7


         We do not manufacture any of our Health and Wellness  products,  nor do
we  manufacture  any of the  ingredients  in these  products.  In  addition,  we
purchase all active  ingredients  that are raw materials used in connection with
our  Cold-Eeze(R)  product from a single  unaffiliated  supplier.  Should any of
these  relationships  terminate,  we believe that the contingency plans which we
have  formulated  would  prevent a  termination  from  materially  affecting our
operations.  However,  if any of these relationship is terminated,  there may be
delays in production of our products until an acceptable replacement facility is
located. We continue to look for safe and reliable multiple-location sources for
products and raw  materials  so that we can continue to obtain  products and raw
materials in the event of a disruption  in our  business  relationship  with any
single manufacturer or supplier.  While we have identified secondary sources for
some of our products and raw materials,  our inability to find other sources for
some of our other products and raw materials may have a material  adverse effect
on our operations.  In addition,  the terms on which manufacturers and suppliers
will make  products  and raw  materials  available  to us could  have a material
effect on our success.

         WE ARE UNCERTAIN AS TO WHETHER WE CAN PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

         The strength of our patent  position may be important to our  long-term
success.  We currently  own five patents in  connection  with  products that are
being  developed  by  Quigley  Pharma.  In  addition,  we have been  granted  an
exclusive agreement for worldwide representation,  manufacturing,  marketing and
distribution  rights  to  a  zinc/gluconate/glycine  lozenge  formulation.  That
formulation  has been patented in the United  States,  Germany,  France,  Italy,
Sweden, Canada and Great Britain and a patent is pending in Japan. However, this
patent in the United  States  expired in August 2004 and expired in June 2005 in
all countries except Japan.

         There can be no assurance that these patents and our exclusive  license
will effectively  protect our products from duplication by others.  In addition,
we may not be  able  to  afford  the  expense  of any  litigation  which  may be
necessary to enforce our rights  under any of our  patents.  Although we believe
that our  current  and future  products  do not and will not  infringe  upon the
patents or violate the  proprietary  rights of others,  if any of our current or
future products do infringe upon the patents or proprietary rights of others, we
may have to  modify  our  products  or  obtain  an  additional  license  for the
manufacture  and/or  sale of such  products.  We could also be  prohibited  from
selling the infringing products.  If we are found to infringe on the proprietary
rights of others,  we are uncertain  whether we will be able to take  corrective
actions in a timely manner, upon acceptable terms and conditions, or at all, and
the failure to do so could have a material  adverse  effect  upon our  business,
financial condition and operations.

         We also use  non-disclosure  agreements with our employees,  suppliers,
consultants  and  customers  to  establish  and protect the ideas,  concepts and
documentation  of our  confidential  non-patented  and  non-copyright  protected
proprietary  technology  and  know-how.  However,  these  methods may not afford
complete  protection.  There can be no  assurance  that third  parties  will not
obtain access to or independently  develop our  technologies,  know-how,  ideas,
concepts and  documentation,  which could have a material  adverse effect on our
financial condition.

         THE SALES OF OUR PRIMARY PRODUCT FLUCTUATES BY SEASON.

         A significant portion of our business is highly seasonal,  which causes
major  variations  in operating  results from quarter to quarter.  The third and
fourth quarters generally represent the largest sales volume for our cold remedy


                                       8


products.  There can be no assurance  that we will be able to manage our working
capital needs and our inventory to meet the fluctuating demand for our products.
Failure to  accurately  predict and  respond to consumer  demand may cause us to
produce excess inventory.  Conversely,  if products achieve greater success than
anticipated for any given quarter, we may not have sufficient  inventory to meet
customer demand.

         OUR EXISTING PRODUCTS AND OUR NEW PRODUCTS UNDER DEVELOPMENT  EXPOSE US
TO POTENTIAL PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS.

         Our  business  exposes  us to an  inherent  risk of  potential  product
liability claims,  including claims for serious bodily injury or death caused by
the sales of our existing products and the clinical trials of our products which
are being developed.  These claims could lead to substantial  damage awards.  We
currently  maintain  product  liability  insurance  in the amount of, and with a
maximum payout of, $15 million.  A successful claim brought against us in excess
of, or outside of, our insurance  coverage could have a material  adverse effect
on our  results of  operations  and  financial  condition.  Claims  against  us,
regardless of their merit or eventual outcome,  may also have a material adverse
effect on the consumer demand for our products.

         WE ARE INVOLVED IN LAWSUITS REGARDING CLAIMS RELATING TO CERTAIN OF OUR
COLD-EEZE(R) PRODUCTS.

         We are,  from time to time,  subject to various legal  proceedings  and
claims,  either asserted or unasserted.  Any such claims whether with or without
merit,  could be  time-consuming  and  expensive  to  defend  and  could  divert
management's attention and resources. While management believes we have adequate
insurance coverage and, if applicable,  accrued loss contingencies for all known
matters,  we cannot assure that the outcome of all current or future  litigation
will not have a material adverse effect on us.

         A SUBSTANTIAL  AMOUNT OF OUR  OUTSTANDING  COMMON STOCK IS OWNED BY OUR
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD AND PRESIDENT AND OUR EXECUTIVE  OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS AS
A GROUP CAN SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCE ALL MATTERS VOTED ON BY OUR STOCKHOLDERS.

         Guy  J.  Quigley,  our  Chairman  of the  Board,  President  and  Chief
Executive  Officer,  through  his  beneficial  ownership,  has the power to vote
approximately  33.2% of our common stock.  Mr.  Quigley and our other  executive
officers and directors collectively  beneficially own approximately 48.7% of our
common stock.  These individuals have significant  influence over the outcome of
all matters  submitted  to  stockholders  for  approval,  including  election of
directors. Consequently, they exercise substantial control over all of our major
decisions which could prevent a change of control of us.

         OUR STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE.

         The  market  price of our  common  stock  has  experienced  significant
volatility.  From January 1, 2002 to March 10, 2006, our per share bid price has
ranged  from a low of  approximately  $2.03 to a high of  approximately  $16.94.
There are several factors which could affect the price of our common stock, some
of which are  announcements  of  technological  innovations  for new  commercial
products by us or our competitors, developments concerning propriety rights, new
or revised  governmental  regulation or general conditions in the market for our
products. Sales of a substantial number of shares by existing stockholders could
also have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.



                                       9


         FUTURE SALES OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON  STOCK IN THE PUBLIC  MARKET COULD
ADVERSELY AFFECT THE TRADING PRICE OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR ABILITY
TO RAISE FUNDS IN NEW STOCK OFFERINGS.

         Future  sales of  substantial  amounts of shares of our common stock in
the public market, or the perception that such sales are likely to occur,  could
affect prevailing trading prices of our common stock and, as a result, the value
of the notes.  As of March 10, 2006,  we had  11,678,478  shares of common stock
outstanding.

         We also have outstanding  options to purchase an aggregate of 3,068,750
shares  of  common  stock at an  average  exercise  price of $7.58 per share and
outstanding  warrants to purchase an  aggregate  of  1,555,000  shares of common
stock at an exercise price of $4.76 per warrant. If the holders of these shares,
options  or  warrants  were to  attempt  to sell a  substantial  amount of their
holdings at once,  the market price of our common  stock would  likely  decline.
Moreover, the perceived risk of this potential dilution could cause stockholders
to attempt to sell their shares and  investors to "short" the stock,  a practice
in which an  investor  sells  shares  that he or she does not own at  prevailing
market  prices,  hoping to purchase  shares  later at a lower price to cover the
sale.  As each of these  events  would  cause the number of shares of our common
stock being offered for sale to increase,  the common stock's market price would
likely  further  decline.  All of these  events  could  combine  to make it very
difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related  securities in the future at a
time and price that we deem appropriate.

         WE DO NOT INTEND TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

         We  have  not  paid  cash  dividends  on our  common  stock  since  our
inception.  We  currently  intend to  retain  earnings,  if any,  for use in our
business and do not anticipate  paying any cash dividends to our stockholders in
the foreseeable future.

         OUR ARTICLES OF  INCORPORATION  AND BY-LAWS CONTAIN CERTAIN  PROVISIONS
THAT MAY BE BARRIERS TO A TAKEOVER.

         Our Articles of  Incorporation  and By-laws contain certain  provisions
which may deter,  discourage,  or make it difficult  to assume  control of us by
another corporation or person through a tender offer,  merger,  proxy contest or
similar  transaction  or series of  transactions.  These  provisions may deter a
future tender offer or other takeover  attempt.  Some  stockholders  may believe
such an offer to be in their best interest because it may include a premium over
the market price of our common stock at the time. In addition,  these provisions
may assist our current  management  in retaining  its position and place it in a
better  position to resist changes which some  stockholders  may want to make if
dissatisfied with the conduct of our business.

         WE HAVE AGREED TO INDEMNIFY OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS FROM LIABILITY.

         Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law allow
us to  indemnify  any  person  who  is or  was  made a  party  to,  or is or was
threatened to be made a party to, any pending,  completed, or threatened action,
suit or proceeding because he or she is or was a director,  officer, employee or
agent  of ours or is or was  serving  at our  request  as a  director,  officer,
employee or agent of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise.  These  provisions  permit us to advance  expenses to an indemnified
party in  connection  with  defending  any such  proceeding,  upon receipt of an
undertaking  by the  indemnified  party to repay  those  amounts  if it is later


                                       10


determined that the party is not entitled to  indemnification.  These provisions
may also reduce the likelihood of derivative  litigation  against  directors and
officers and discourage or deter  stockholders  from suing directors or officers
for breaches of their duties to us, even though such an action,  if  successful,
might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. In addition, to the extent that
we expend funds to indemnify  directors and officers,  funds will be unavailable
for operational purposes.

in effect.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

         This  offering  is  self-underwritten;   neither  we  nor  the  selling
stockholders  have employed an  underwriter  for the sale of common stock by the
selling  stockholders.  We  will  bear  all  expenses  in  connection  with  the
preparation of this prospectus.  The selling stockholders will bear all expenses
associated with the sale of the common stock.

         The  selling  stockholders  may offer  their  shares  of  common  stock
directly  or  through  pledgees,  donees,  transferees  or other  successors  in
interest in one or more of the following transactions:

         o        On any stock  exchange on which the shares of common stock may
                  be listed at the time of sale

         o        In negotiated transactions

         o        In the over-the-counter market

         o        In a combination of any of the above transactions

         The selling  stockholders may offer their shares of common stock at any
of the following prices:

         o        Fixed prices which may be changed

         o        Market prices prevailing at the time of sale

         o        Prices related to such prevailing market prices

         o        At negotiated prices

         The selling stockholders may effect such transactions by selling shares
to  or  through   broker-dealers,   and  all  such  broker-dealers  may  receive
compensation  in the form of discounts,  concessions,  or  commissions  from the
selling  stockholders  and/or the  purchasers of shares of common stock for whom
such  broker-dealers  may act as agents or to whom they sell as  principals,  or
both (which compensation as to a particular  broker-dealer might be in excess of
customary commissions).

         Any broker-dealer  acquiring common stock from the selling stockholders
may sell the shares either  directly,  in its normal  market-making  activities,
through or to other brokers on a principal or agency basis or to its  customers.
Any such sales may be at prices then prevailing on the Nasdaq National Market or
at prices related to such  prevailing  market prices or at negotiated  prices to
its customers or a combination of such methods. The selling stockholders and any
broker-dealers  that  act in  connection  with  the  sale  of the  common  stock
hereunder  might be deemed to be  "underwriters"  within the  meaning of Section
2(11) of the Securities Act; any commissions  received by them and any profit on
the resale of shares as principal might be deemed to be  underwriting  discounts
and commissions under the Securities Act. Any such commissions, as well as other
expenses incurred by the selling stockholders and applicable transfer taxes, are
payable by the selling stockholders.

                                       13


         The selling stockholders reserve the right to accept, and together with
any agent of the selling stockholder, to reject in whole or in part any proposed
purchase of the shares of common stock.  The selling  stockholders  will pay any
sales   commissions   or  other   seller's   compensation   applicable  to  such
transactions.

         We have not  registered or qualified  offers and sales of shares of the
common stock under the laws of any  country,  other than the United  States.  To
comply  with  certain  states'  securities  laws,  if  applicable,  the  selling
stockholders  will  offer  and  sell  their  shares  of  common  stock  in  such
jurisdictions  only  through  registered  or  licensed  brokers or  dealers.  In
addition,  in certain  states  the  selling  stockholders  may not offer or sell
shares of common stock unless we have  registered  or qualified  such shares for
sale in such  states  or we have  complied  with  an  available  exemption  from
registration or qualification.

         The selling  stockholders  are  required to comply  with  Regulation  M
promulgated  under the  Exchange  Act. In general,  Rule 102 under  Regulation M
prohibits  any person  connected  with a  distribution  of our common stock from
directly or indirectly bidding for, or purchasing for any account in which he or
she has a beneficial interest,  any of our common stock or any right to purchase
our common stock,  for a period of one business day before and after  completion
of his or her participation in the distribution (we refer to that time period as
the "distribution period").

         During the distribution  period,  Rule 104 under Regulation M prohibits
the selling  stockholders and any other persons engaged in the distribution from
engaging in any  stabilizing  bid or purchasing  our common stock except for the
purpose of  preventing  or  retarding a decline in the open market  price of our
common  stock.  No  such  person  may  effect  any  stabilizing  transaction  to
facilitate any offering at the market. Inasmuch as the selling stockholders will
be reoffering  and reselling our common stock at the market,  Rule 104 prohibits
them from effecting any  stabilizing  transaction in  contravention  of Rule 104
with respect to our common stock.

         There can be no assurance that the selling  stockholders  will sell any
or all of the shares offered by them hereunder or otherwise.

                      DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON
                 INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors,  officers or persons controlling the Company,
the  Company  has  been  advised  that  it  is  the  SEC's   opinion  that  such
indemnification  is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         The  Company's  By-laws  authorize  indemnification  of  directors  and
officers as follows:

               ARTICLE V - INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
                              EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS

         Section 1. The  corporation  shall indemnify any person who was or is a
party or threatened to be made a party to any  threatened,  pending or completed
action,  suit  or  proceeding,   whether  civil,  criminal,   administrative  or
investigative  (other  than  action  by or in the right of the  corporation)  by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer,  employee or agent of
the  corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the  corporation  as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,  partnership, joint
venture,  trust or other  enterprise,  against  expenses  (including  attorneys'
fees),  judgments,  fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection  with such action,  suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation,  and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding,  had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action,  suit or proceeding by judgment,  order,  settlement,
conviction,  or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,  shall not, of
itself,  create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a


                                      II-1


manner  which  he  reasonably  believed  to be in or not  opposed  to  the  best
interests  of the  corporation,  and,  with  respect to any  criminal  action or
proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

         Section 2. No officer,  director or  stockholder  may become  surety on
behalf of the  corporation for any of its  obligations  under any  circumstances
whatsoever.

         In addition,  Section  78.7502 of the Nevada  General  Corporation  Law
reads as follows:

DISCRETIONARY AND MANDATORY  INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS,  DIRECTORS,  EMPLOYEES
AND AGENTS: GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         1.    A  corporation  may indemnify any person who was or is a party or
is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding,  whether civil,  criminal,  administrative or investigative,
except an action  by or in the right of the  corporation,  by reason of the fact
that he is or was a director,  officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
is or was serving at the  request of the  corporation  as a  director,  officer,
employee or agent of another corporation,  partnership,  joint venture, trust or
other enterprise,  against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines
and  amounts  paid in  settlement  actually  and  reasonably  incurred by him in
connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he:

               (a) Is not liable [if it is proven that his act or failure to act
         did not  constitute a breach of his  fiduciary  duties as a director or
         officer  and his  breach of those  duties did not  involve  intentional
         misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law]; or

               (b)  Acted  in good  faith  and in a manner  which he  reasonably
         believed  to be in  or  not  opposed  to  the  best  interests  of  the
         corporation,  and, with respect to any criminal  action or  proceeding,
         had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

         The termination of any action,  suit or proceeding by judgment,  order,
settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does
not, of itself, create a presumption that the person is liable [since his act or
failure to act  constituted  a breach of his  fiduciary  duties as a director or
officer and his breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing  violation  of law] or did not act in good faith and in a manner which
he  reasonably  believed  to be in or not opposed to the best  interests  of the
corporation,  or that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

         2.    A  corporation  may indemnify any person who was or is a party or
is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,  pending or completed action
or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer,  employee or agent
of the corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,  partnership, joint
venture,  trust or other enterprise against expenses,  including amounts paid in
settlement  and  attorneys'  fees  actually  and  reasonably  incurred by him in
connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he:

               (a) Is not liable [if it is proven that his act or failure to act
         did not  constitute a breach of his  fiduciary  duties as a director or
         officer  and his  breach of those  duties did not  involve  intentional
         misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law]; or

                                      II-2


                  (b) Acted in good  faith and in a manner  which he  reasonably
         believed  to be in  or  not  opposed  to  the  best  interests  of  the
         corporation.

         Indemnification  may not be made for any  claim,  issue or matter as to
which  such a person has been  adjudged  by a court of  competent  jurisdiction,
after  exhaustion of all appeals  therefrom,  to be liable to the corporation or
for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent
that the  court in which  the  action  or suit  was  brought  or other  court of
competent  jurisdiction  determines  upon  application  that  in view of all the
circumstances  of the case,  the person is fairly  and  reasonably  entitled  to
indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

         3.    To the extent  that a director,  officer,  employee or agent of a
corporation  has been  successful  on the merits or  otherwise in defense of any
action,  suit or proceeding referred to in subsections 1 and 2, or in defense of
any claim, issue or matter therein,  the corporation shall indemnify him against
expenses,  including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with the defense.

         Pursuant to the Registration  Rights Agreement dated October 1, 2004 by
and  among  the  Company  and the  selling  stockholders  in which we  agreed to
register  the resale of their  shares of common  stock with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission,  we will indemnify the selling stockholders against certain
liabilities,  including  liabilities  under the  Securities Act of 1933, and the
selling  stockholders will indemnify us and our executive officers and directors
against certain liabilities,  including  liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the Company pursuant to any charter, provision,  by-law, contract,  arrangement,
statute or  otherwise,  the Company 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 of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

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
               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;

          (2)  That,  for the purposes of  determining  any liability  under the
               Securities Act of 1933, 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; and

          (3)  To  remove  from   registration  by  means  of  a  post-effective
               amendment  any of the  securities  being  registered  that 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 of 1933,  each
          filing of the registrant's  annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
          15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where  applicable,
          each filing of an employee  benefit  plan's annual report  pursuant to
          Section  15(d)  of the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934)  that  is
          incorporated  by reference  in this  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 of 1933 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


                                      II-4


          opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
          is against  public policy as expressed in the  Securities  Act of 1933
          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 a  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 of 1933
          and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.



                                      II-5
