      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 appropriate box.)

     
ý
  (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
ý
  (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
  (c) The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

 


 

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. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)

The Registrant has encountered unanticipated delays in completing the evaluation and testing of its internal controls in compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. These delays have also caused delays in the independent public accountant’s completion of the audits of the Registrant’s financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2004. As a result of these delays and the complex nature of the new requirements under Section 404, the Registrant is unable to complete and file the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K by the prescribed filing date without unreasonable effort and expense. The Registrant expects to file its Form 10-K within fifteen calendar days after the filing deadline.
