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-25(b), the following should
be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
(a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not
be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
(b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form
[X] 10-K, Form 20-F,11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or
before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the

</TABLE>
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 portion thereof, could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
The Registrant is in the process of completing the negotiation of new credit
facilities to replace the existing facility which terminates by its terms on
December 31, 2000. The Registrant has been unable to complete these
negotiations, which are necessary to complete the financial statements. It is
expected that these credit facilities will be in place and that the Form 10-K
will be filed within the 15 day period allowed by Rule 12b-25. The
aforementioned transactions do not affect the Registrant's results of operations
for the fourth quarter or the year ended August 31, 2000, and the Registrant
currently believes that its Form 10-K, when filed, will reflect substantially
the same results disclosed in its earnings announcement made on October 18,
2000.
