- --------------------------------------------------------------
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense

[x] (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this

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 period.
The Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB through R.R.
Donnelley Financial Services (the "Filing Agent") on Friday, May 1, 1998 and the
filing was accepted by the SEC's Edgar system after 5:30 on such date. Since
the filing was not accepted prior to 5:30 p.m. it received a May 4th filing date
instead of a May 1 filing date. The filing was delayed passed 5:30 p.m. as a
result of technical difficulties experienced by the Filing Agent. The Company
has submitted a written request to the Office of EDGAR Disclosure Policy,
Division of Corporation Finance requesting that the Company's filing be dated
May 1, 1998. The Company is filing this Form 12b-25 to seek an extension of the
prescribed filing time so that the Company will not be considered a delinquent
filer in the event that the Company's request for backdating is denied.
The Company had initially planned to file its Form 10-KSB in advance
of the prescribed filing date. However, as a result of recent financings that
closed in mid-April, 1998, it was unable (absent unreasonable effort and
expense) to have the financial information needed to provide adequate disclosure
of such financing in order for filing prior to the prescribed due date.
