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 time period.
RESPONSE: Subsequent to September 30, 2000 and within a very short time period
of the filing deadline for Form 10-Q, management became aware of circumstances
involving loans to a single borrower that are likely to result in the future
charge-off of portions of these loans. These loans, which approximate $1.9
million, are collateralized by automobiles and lease receivables. Management is
in the process of evaluating the value of applicable collateral and, upon
completion of this evaluation, may record additional expense for the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 for anticipated losses."
