PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail 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.
Due to the focus of the Companys internal financial and legal personnel on the amendment of its
2005 Form 10-K to reflect the restatement of its financial statements, and the recent filing of its
amended annual report on Form 10-K/A and its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006,
the Company has been delayed in its preparation of its financial statements and Form 10-Q for the
fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006. As a result, the Company will not be able to complete the
preparation of its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 within the prescribed time
period.
