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 Company has been in the process of responding to SEC comments regarding the
submission of its Form 10-SB filing. As a consequence, the Company's accountant
was not given sufficient time within which to complete or review the unaudited
or quarterly financial statements and the Company did not receive the
completed financial statements in a timely fashion. Thus, the Company is
requesting this extension.
