State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
The registrant on August 14, 1998 received a comment letter from the
SEC staff on its Registration Statement on Form S-1, for which it is
currently preparing responses. The registrant believes that certain
responses to the comment letter will need to be incorporated into the
May 31, 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The registrant is attempting
to finalize its comments during the first week of September, 1998 and
intends to file the 10-K on or before September 13, 1998.
