                                    PART III
                                    NARRATIVE

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

      The registrant is in the process of preparing and reviewing the financial
information of the Company on a consolidated basis. The process of compiling and
disseminating the information required to be included in the Form 10-QSB for the
relevant fiscal quarter, as well as the completion of the required review of the
Company's financial information on a consolidated basis, could not be completed
without incurring undue hardship and expense. The registrant undertakes the
responsibility to file such quarterly report no later than five days after its
original date.

                                     PART IV
                                OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification

   John C. Wilson                      (919)              852-4482
        (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 preceding 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.

      For the quarter ended September 30, 2004, the registrant had no revenues
and a net loss of approximately $460,400. For the quarter ended September 30,
2003, the registrant had no revenues and a net loss of approximately $65,800.
Results for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 remain subject to further
adjustment and actual results may differ significantly from the foregoing
estimates.

      The $65,800 loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 is the net loss
of Impact Diagnostics, Inc., now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The
Company acquired Impact Diagnostics on July 30, 2004.
