PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F,
10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within
the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
Eye Technology, Inc. (the "Company") underwent a change of control on
February 6, 1998 pursuant to a "reverse acquisition" transaction. The new
management established compliance under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
as a primary objective, engaging an independent auditor for the Company to audit
the 1996 and 1997 financial statements of the Company, and instructing the
auditors of Star Tobacco & Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the entity acquired in the
"reverse acquisition") to complete Star's financial statements for 1997. Due to
the internal management difficulties of the Company prior to the change of
control on February 6, 1998, and the inability of the Company to timely prepare
its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company will
not be able to file its Form 10-KSB report by the due date of March 31, 1998.
