ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
As part of the SEC's review of public companies' filings, the Company received a
follow-up request for clarification on June 24, 2003 regarding its financial
statements for the year ended April 30, 2002. The Company submitted its response
on July 29, 2003, and is currently awaiting the SEC's reply.
The SEC has granted the Company an extension until August 13, 2003 for filing
the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended April 30, 2003. The Company's
auditors, Grant Thornton, LLP, have not completed the audit for the year ended
April 30, 2003. Accordingly, the filing of the Company's 2003 Form 10-KSB will
be deferred in order to take into consideration the comments from the SEC. The
Company expects to make the filing by early September.
