(b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on

Part III - Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB, 10-
Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not
be filed within the prescribed period.
Registrant's Form 10-QSB for the period ending June 30, 2000 could not be
filed in a timely manner as the Registrant failed to provide its accountants
sufficient time to review the respective financial statements before the filing
deadline. The Registrant could not prepare such financials timely because its
limited accounting resources were preoccupied with the reconciliation of certain
prior transactions. This development has prevented the Registrant from filing
the Form 10-QSB in a timely manner without unreasonable effort and expense to
the Registrant.

and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reason why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
