ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

     The registrant used the purchase method of accounting in reporting the
previously announced acquisition of Capco Resources Ltd.(a Canadian company)
("CRL"), effective in December 1999. Based upon additional analysis of the
common stockholder interests that existed at the time of the transaction, it
has been determined that the acquisition should have been accounted for and
reported using reverse-acquisition accounting procedures.

     The registrant is gathering information to prepare the pre acquisition
comparative historical financial statements of CRL along with pro forma
financial statements and other disclosure, giving effect to the business
combination using reverse acquisition accounting at the acquisition date.

     Due to the required restatement of previously issued financial
statements of CRL, the registrant has been unable to obtain all of the
information on a timely basis from Canada and thus has not been able to timely
file its Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 2000.

     The registrant will file the Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31,
2000, as soon as practicable.

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the

undersigned, hereunto duly authorized.
