                          Attachment III
              to Notification of Late Filing of Form 10-Q
                for the Quarter Ended May 31, 2002

The Registrant was unable to file on July 15, 2002, its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May
31,  2002  ("Form 10-Q") because, among other  reasons,
the  Registrant changed its auditors on July  1,  2002.
The Registrant expects, however, to be in a position to
file the Form 10-Q, on or before July 20, 2002.




                          Attachment IV
            to Notification of Late Filing of Form 10-Q
              for the Quarter Ended May 31, 2002

For  the  quarter  ended May 31, 2002,  the  Registrant
expects   to   report   an  estimated   net   loss   of
approximately  $1.33 million on estimated  revenues  of
$5.73  million as compared to a reported  net  loss  of
$1.85 million on reported revenues of $5.04 million for
the  quarter ended May 31, 2001. The foregoing  revenue
and  loss  projections  are forward-looking  statements
based on the Registrant's assumptions and estimates  of
the results to be reported in its Form 10-Q to be filed
on  or  before July 20, 2002. No independent accountant
has expressed an opinion on these estimates.
