NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K,10-Q,
N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within
the prescribed time period.
The registrant has not been able to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
December 31, 1999 without unreasonable effort or expense, and seeks relief
pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b). As the staff of the Commission is aware, the
registrant filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 on December 20, 1999. The registrant received comments from
the staff of the Commission on January 31, 2000 with respect to its Form 10, its
Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1999, filed on January 5,
2000 and its Form 10-KSB for the Fiscal Year ended April 30, 1999, filed on July
29, 1999. Due to the desire of the registrant to respond to staff comments in
its current and historical filings and the early stage development and rapid
expansion of the registrant's businesses, the registrant has experienced
difficulties and delays in preparing disclosure for its Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended December 31, 1999.
