Part II-Rules 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,  the following
should be completed. (Check box if appropriate) [x]

      (a)   The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form
            could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

      (b)   The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on
            Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be
            filed on or before the fifteenth 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-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part III-Narrative
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     State below in  reasonable  detail the reasons why Form 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  annual  report on Form 10-K could not be filed  within the  prescribed
time  period  because the  Company is in the  process of  finalizing  its annual
financial statements as well as the supporting documentation related thereto. On
January 15,  2004,  the  Company  filed a voluntary  petition  for relief  under
chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the  Southern  District  of New York  (the  "Bankruptcy  Court").  The
Company has not been able to complete its year end financial  results due to the
dedication of most of the Company's internal financial  management  resources to
the preparation for and conduct of the Company's bankruptcy proceeding as debtor
in  possession.  In addition,  the Company is in the process of working with its
auditor,  Ernst & Young LLP, to seek approval from the Bankruptcy  Court for the
retention  of Ernst & Young  LLP in  order to  complete  the  work  required  to
finalize  the audit of the  Company's  financial  statements  for the year ended
December 31, 2003.  Accordingly,  the Company needs  additional time to complete
the  disclosure  in the  annual  report  on Form  10-K  as  required  under  the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
