                                     PART II
                             RULE 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.)

               (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 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form 10-Q, or portion
|X|                 thereof will be filed on or before the 15th calendar day
                    following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly

                                    PART III
                                    NARRATIVE

     State below in reasonable detail the reasons why 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.

     The compilation, dissemination and review of the information required to be
presented in the Form 10-QSB for the relevant fiscal quarter has imposed time
constraints that have rendered timely filing of the Form 10-QSB impracticable
without undue hardship and expense to the registrant. The registrant undertakes
the responsibility to file such report no later than five days after its
original date.


                                     PART IV
                                OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
    notification

   John J. Cousins                    (505)                      797-7878
        (Name)                     (Area Code)               (Telephone Number)

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of
1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).

                                                         |X| Yes     |_| No

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

                                                         |_| Yes     |X| No

If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate
of the results cannot be made.
