PART 11
RULE 12b-25 (b) and (c)
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the
following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
(a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form
could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
[x](b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on
Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or a portion thereof will be
filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due
date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form
10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar
day following the prescribed due date; and
(c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25c
has been attached if applicable.
PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-KSB, 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.)
Registrant is in the process of completing the steps necessary to
participate in a transaction which management anticipates will have a material
effect on Registrant's business. Because such steps have not been completed as
of the date hereof, Registrant is unable to determine the impact such
transaction may have on the conduct of its business at this time. It is
anticipated that management will be in a position to make a determination of
such impact on or before April 15, 2003. Thus, Registrant is unable to complete
its Annual Report at this time without unreasonable effort and due expense.
PART IV
OTHER INFORMATION

notification

(Name) (Area Code) (Telephone Number)
(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 during the proceeding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).
[X] Yes [ ] No
--- ---
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
[X] Yes [ ] No
--- ---
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
Registrant reasonably expects the Net Income for the year ended December 31,
2002 to be approximately $2,550,000 as compared to the Net Loss of $2,785,607
for the year ended December 31, 2001. The reason for the difference between the
Net Income in 2002 as compared to the Net Loss for 2001 can be primarily
attributed to Income from Discontinued Operations of $3,712,884 which was due
primarily to a gain recognized on the extinguishment of debt in January 2002.
