PART III - NARRATIVE

For much of the audit period, the Company's finance and accounting staff was
involved with completing responses to the Securities and Exchange Commission's
("SEC") inquires related to a previously filed Form 10K and three subsequent
Form 10Q's. This comment process was concluded in August. Since that time, the
Company has worked diligently to complete the year-end audit and Form 10-K but
it was not possible to respond to all of the auditor's request by the due date.
