PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
The registrant's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 cannot be
filed within the prescribed time period. To date, the registrant has been unable
to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999
and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1999; its financial statement
for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 cannot be accurately compiled before
its year-end results and financial statement for the quarter ended June 30, 1999
are finalized.
The registrant previously disclosed the delay in filing its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1999, as disclosed in registrant's Form
12b-25 dated June 30, 1999. This delay has been further affected by the
following: As previously disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K dated September 24,
1999, as of September 17, 1999, the registrant retained Grant Thornton LLP as
its new independent certified public accountants. This followed the resignation
of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent certified public
accountants on August 25, 1999, as previously disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K
dated September 1, 1999. The registrant's year-end audit is currently being
performed by Grant Thornton. In addition, as previously disclosed in
registrant's Form 8-K dated September 1, 1999, the registrant's financial
statements for the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 1999 are being
restated from those previously announced by the registrant in February 1999.
Once the audit process and the restatement of the registrant's financial
statements for the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 1999 are
completed, the registrant intends to promptly file its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 1999 and will file its Forms 10-Q for the
quarters ended June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1999 as soon thereafter as
practicable. However, the registrant does not expect to be able to file its Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 prior to the time period indicated
in paragraph (b) of Part II of this Form 12b-25.
PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION
(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification.
David B. Schick (718) 937-5765
(Name) (Area Code) (Telephone Number)
(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) or the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of
1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).
( ) Yes (x) No
Registrant has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended March 31, 1999 or its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
Note: Registrant intends to file its Forms 10-Q/A for the quarters ended June
30, 1998, September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1998 contemporaneously
with or shortly after its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 1999 is filed.
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
(x) Yes ( ) No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate
of the results cannot be made.
The registrant anticipates reporting a net loss for the quarter ended September
30, 1999. The registrant is unable to provide an explanation of any anticipated
change inasmuch as it intends, as previoulsy disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K
dated September 1, 1999, to restate its financial statements for the comparable
quarter of the preceding year, but has not yet done so.
