PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Forms 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 Company signed a merger agreement with Star Multi Care Services,
Inc. ("STAR") on January 3, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"). The Company requires
an extension to file its Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996
because management's time and resources have been devoted (i) to the integration
of certain activities of the Company and STAR pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
and (ii) to the preparation of a registration statement to register securities
of STAR and those of the Company, which registration is necessary to consummate
the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. This devotion of time and
resources has left management unable to complete its Form 10-KSB required
