SEC 1344 (6/94)
<PAGE>
The Form 10-KSB was not filed within the prescribed time period due to the
following circumstances. A change in accountants during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1998 resulted in changes in the preparation and presentation of
financial information by the registrant to the auditor of the financial
statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998. These changes resulted in a
delay by the registrant in providing financial information to the current
auditors. As a result of the needed coordination between the past and current
auditors concerning the format of the financial statements in the Form 10-KSB,
the aforementioned delay resulted in a delay in determining the final form of
financial statement presentation of audit reports and related consents. It was
due to these factors that the Form 10- KSB was not filed until after the
prescribed time period had elapsed.
