[ X ]     (b)  The subject annual report, semi-annual report,

                      PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K,
11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof,
could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

     The SEC Staff reviewed the Company's Form S-3 filed October
24, 1995, its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1994 and its Forms 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 1995 and
September 30, 1995 and commented in its letter dated November 24,
1995.  Due to the nature of the comments, the Company requested
the concurrence of the SEC Staff with the responses outlined in
its letter to the SEC dated March 15, 1996 before making its
filing on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.
In addition, it was agreed that amendments required to previously
filed documents could be made in the Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1995, in lieu of amending previously
filed documents.  Based upon conversations with the SEC Staff,
the Company anticipated that it would be notified of the Staff's
concurrence with its responses, allowing for timely filing of the
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.  As of the
date of this filing on Form 12b-25, the Company has yet to be
notified by the SEC of its concurrence with the Company's
responses to the comment letter.  Therefore, the Company was
unable in a timely manner, without unreasonable effort or
expense, to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1995.
