Part II--Rules 12b-25 (b) and (c)
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

date; and
[ ] (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c)

Part III--Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or portion thereof could not be filed
within the prescribed period.
The Company became a reporting company in 1998 and will file its first
Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 1998. The Company is a holding
company and does not have any material operations or assets other than
ownership, indirectly, of all of the capital stock of Moll Industries, Inc.
("Moll"), which is concurrently filing a Form 12(b)-25. In fiscal 1998, Moll,
formerly known as Anchor Advanced Products, Inc., completed a number of
acquisitions, including certain acquisitions in several foreign countries, as
well as a merger and restructuring, the result of which have been significant
accounting reporting burdens. Certain unanticipated difficulties have arisen in
obtaining financial disclosure numbers and information from certain of Moll's
foreign subsidiaries which can not be obtained without unreasonable effort or
expense.

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be

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:
As noted above, the Company became a reporting company in 1998 and will
file its first Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 1998 based on the
financial statements of its indirectly held operating subsidiary, Moll. Moll's
operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 were materially impacted
by the following events: acquisition of the Hanning Companies, acquisition of
Somomeca Industries S.A.R.L. and its subsidiaries, acquisition of Gemini Plastic
Services, Inc., sale of 10 1/2 Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 and the
acquisition of Anchor Advanced Products, Inc. by Mr. George Votis, and the
subsequent restructuring of Moll.
