Dear Sirs:
Please find enclosed a copy of a Form Schedule 13D which we are filing on
behalf of our client, CBW, Inc.
We had earlier filed a paper copy which was rejected and we wish to request
that the filing date be adjusted to Friday September 4, 1998 (the
original date of receipt of the paper copy). We had attempted to
file electronically the Schedule 13D on Wednesday September 9, 1998,
but were unsuccessful.
With time being of the essence, and after speaking to several EDGAR
support and M&A staff, we are hereby filing the Schedule 13D immediately.
We also intend to file a Schedule 13D/A which will include all the
exhibits (some of which we are in the process of Edgarizing).
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Eghosa D. Omoigui
