PART II - RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense
and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25b, the following should
be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
/X/ (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of
this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable
effort or expense;
/X/ (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition
report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K, Form N-SAR, or portion
thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar
day following the prescribed due date; or the subject

calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
/ / (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule

PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion
thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach Extra
Sheets if Needed).
The Registrant is unable to meet the deadline for filing an
amendment to its annual report of Form 10-K ("10-K") for its fiscal year
ended June 30, 1996, which amendment is due in EDGARized form
October 28, 1996. The filing could not have been made by the required
filing date without unreasonable effort or expense by reason of the
following extraordinary circumstances:
The completion of the material for the required amendment was
delayed because of the failure of counsel to incorporate all required
changes prior to the cut-off for electronic filing on October 28, 1996.
The changes were communicated to counsel but through oversight not all of
the changes were actually incorporated. When the oversight was found,
there was not sufficient time to make the changes prior to the electronic
filing deadline and the Company elected to file this notification and
file within the extra time allowed with all required corrections made.
<PAGE>
The Company has devoted substantial time of employees and engaged
substantial outside accounting and legal resources for assistance in
preparing the Form 10-K for filing by the deadline. Nevertheless, as of
the deadline for filing, the report requires additional revision before it
will be in final form.
