State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

(Attach extra Sheets if Needed)

 

The Registrant is unable to timely file its report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 as a result of the ongoing audit and reviews of the Registrant’s consolidated financial results for certain prior reporting periods.

 

As previously disclosed, Stonefield Josephson Inc. (“Stonefield”) was engaged as the Registrant’s new independent auditor on May 21, 2004.  Stonefield is complete with the full audit of the Registrant’s consolidated financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, and 2003 and the Registrant today filed its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2003.

 

Stonefield is currently working on the quarterly reviews of the Registrants March 31, June 30, and September 30 quarterly financial statements. Given the substantial time and focus required to complete the audits and restatement for the years 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Registrant has not yet been able to file its Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, 2004.

 

The Registrant and Stonefield are working diligently to file its Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, 2004 as quickly as possible.
