State below in reasonable detail why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F 10-Q, N-SAR
or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
The Company's quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period
ended March 31, 2002 could not be filed within the prescribed time period
because of additional time required by the Registrant's management to compile
certain information to be included in the Report. The report on Form 10-QSB
cannot be timely filed without unreasonable effort or expense. The Registrant
anticipates the filing of its Form 10-QSB by the extended due date.
