PART III. NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F,
10-Q, N-SAR or transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
Because the audit of the Registrant's financial statements has not yet
been completed, the Form 10-KSB cannot be timely filed without unreasonable
effort and expense.
As a result of the foregoing unusual circumstances and in the interest of
full and accurate disclosure to the Commission and to current stockholders and
to avoid incurring unreasonable effort or expense, the Registrant requires
additional time to prepare its Form 10-KSB filing. The Registrant anticipates
that the filing will be made as required under Rule 12b-25(b)(2)(ii).
