Part III--Narrative
________________________________________________________________________
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. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
During June & July, 1998, certain events occured which delayed the accounting
staff from being able to timely complete their work. These delays resulted in
a delay in the Company's outside accountant's access to the financial records
and data for their review of the financail statements. Although the Company
is not filing a reveiw report issued by its outside accountants as part of its
10-Q filing, Managment believes that it is important to postpone the filing of
the 10-Q financial statements until such review has been completed and any
comments which might be made by them have been evaluated and satisfactorily
dealt with.
The Company anticipates that it will be able to file the report with the five
day extension period.
