(X)  (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on
     Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be filed on or
     before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the

                                    PART III

                                    NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)

                  As a result of the recent cessation of operations of its
                  Pronto service, a change in senior management, substantial
                  reductions of its workforce, other cost saving measures and
                  initiation of discussions for a strategic merger with a
                  potential transaction partner, as previously announced on
                  March 25, 2003, it was not possible without unreasonable
                  effort or expense to make appropriate disclosure in a timely
                  manner. The Registrant anticipates that the filing will be
                  made as required under Rule 12b-25 (b) (2) (ii).
