PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 10-KSB,
11-K, 20-F, 10-Q, 10-QSB, N-SAR or the transition report portion
thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach
extra sheets if needed).
The Form 10-QSB for Western Country Clubs, Inc. could not be
filed within the prescribed time period for the following
reason:
During the first quarter of 1998, the Company lost its Chief
Financial Officer due to resignation and taking of a position
with another company. This caused additional duties
previously performed by the Chief Financial Officer to
have to be performed by an outside accounting firm.
The transition resulted in delays in completing the first
quarter financials. The Company expects that this is a
one-time occurrence and should not happen again.
