If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense
and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should
be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
[X] (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of
this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort
or expense;
[X] (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition
report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K, Form N-SAR, or portion
thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar

day following the prescribed due date; and
[ ] (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule

PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed with the
prescribed time period. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
The issuer is in the process of preparing its unaudited financial statements for
the second quarter in the current year ending October 31, 2000 that will be
reviewed by its independent auditors. However, management is also in the process
of having their independent auditors complete an acquisition audit and pro forma
financial statements that has to be filed on Form 8-K shortly. The deployment of
resources to complete both forms almost simultaneously have resulted in the
company's inability to timely file its quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the
period ending April 30, 2000, until on or before the fifth calendar day
following the prescribed due date.
