PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-QSB, N-SAR or the transition report or portion thereof
could not be filed within the prescribed period. (Attach extra sheets if
needed.)
As previously reported by the registrant in its quarterly
report on Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1998
(filed August 14, 1998), on July 31, 1998, the registrant filed a
voluntary petition commencing a case under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Central District of California (the "Bankruptcy Court") as Case No. SA
98-20799 RA. In accordance with the registrant's Second Amended Plan of
Reorganization dated July 23, 1999 (the "Plan"), confirmed by the
Bankruptcy Court on September 30, 1999, InfiniCom AB (publ), a company
organized and existing under the laws of the Kingdom of Sweden
("InfiniCom"), acquired from the registrant such number of newly issued
shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the registrant
("Common Stock") which in the aggregate represented approximately 91%
of the issued and outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, in
exchange for which InfiniCom conveyed to the registrant 100% of the
issued and outstanding ordinary shares of 10 pence each of 24STORE.com
Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales
(collectively, the "Transactions"). The Transactions were fully
consummated as of December 7, 1999 and resulted in a complete
recapitalization and reorganization of the registrant, the assets of
the registrant prior to the confirmation of the Plan having been
liquidated and distributed to creditors of the registrant in accordance
with the terms of the Plan.
The consequences resulting from the Transaction, in the
opinion of the registrant's management, significantly impact
information to be disclosed in various sections of the registrant's
annual report on Form 10-KSB. As of the date of the filing of this Form
12b-25, the registrant has not been able to complete the preparation
and assimilation of information that the registrant believes would be
required to be disclosed in its annual report without the expenditure
of unreasonable effort and expense due principally to the
organizational consequences of the Transaction and the subsequent
resignation of the sole remaining director of the registrant and
election of a new board of directors of the registrant. Accordingly,
the registrant must delay the filing of such report. The registrant
believes that it will be in a position to file its annual report on
Form 10-KSB within the period specified in Rule 12b-25(b)(2)(ii).

PART IV
OTHER INFORMATION
ATTACHED RESPONSE - ITEM (2)
The registrant did not file the following periodic reports required
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months because
of the continuation of the registrant's proceedings under Chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code during such period as described in the narrative
in Part III hereof: (i) the registrant's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, (ii) the registrant's quarterly report on
Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended March 31, 1999, (iii) the
registrant's quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended June
30, 1999 and (iv) the registrant's quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the
quarterly period ended September 30, 1999.
ATTACHED RESPONSE - ITEM (3)
It is anticipated that a significant change in the registrant's results
of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year for which
the registrant has filed an annual report on Form 10-KSB will be reflected by
the earnings statements contained in the annual report. Such significant change
is due to the fact that the registrant substantially discontinued operations
during the pendency of its case under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code which continued throughout the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, and a
majority of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, as discussed in the
narrative in Part III hereof.
