PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-KSB, 11-K, 10-QSB,
N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed with the
prescribed time period. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
The Company is not able to file the annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 1999 within the time period prescribed for such report. The
Company engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP to become the Company's new principal
accountant in March 2000. They are currently in the final process of
completing the audit opinion on the Company's financial statements for the year
ending December 31, 1999 and their consent to include the audit opinion in the
Company's annual Form 10-KSB
The Company believes that the delay in completing the audit is not due to
disagreements with the accountant on any matters of accounting principles,
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
Based on current discussions with Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company intends to
file its form 10-KSB by April 15, 2000.
