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

following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

[x] (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report

PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K,
10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed
within the prescribed time period.
The Issuer could not file its Form 10-K within the prescribed time
period due to delays experienced in connection with engaging a new chief
financial officer. The Issuer's chief financial officer resigned during the
quarter due to personal reasons. The Issuer is in the process of seeking a
new chief financial officer. The lack of a chief financial officer affected
the Issuer's ability to complete all of its reporting obligations under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 within the time frames required thereby.
The Issuer expects to be able to file the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended June 30, 1999 within 15 calendar days of September 28, 1999.
