Registrant’s adverse financial position and lack of sufficient financial resources has required Registrant to significantly limit both its internal staffing and its use of outside personnel. At the same time, the individuals customarily responsible for the preparation and review of Registrant’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been required to shift a portion of their attention and resources to other matters critical to Registrant’s continuing business. As a consequence, the Company has been delayed in completing the preparation and pre-filing review of the Report.


		Persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB control number.

Registrant’s lower net loss of $226,200 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the net loss of $238,100 in the six months ended June 30, 2009 results primarily from lower sales and marketing expenses offset in part by a lower gross profit on a lower level of revenues, no reversal of accounts payable in 2010 and higher interest and financing costs.
