Part III — Narrative

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

Pursuant to Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Registrant filed on March 31, 2003 only those parts of its Annual Report of Form 10-K that it was able to file without unreasonable effort or expense. Due to the events summarized below, and recent decisions regarding how to properly account for such events, the Registrant was not able to prepare complete financial statements, a management's discussion and analysis or selected financial data, and KPMG LLP, the Registrant's independent auditors, was unable under professional standards to issue its audit report on the Registrant's financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 before completing its review of the report of the internal investigation described below and to directly assess certain of the matters addressed therein as well as certain related matters.

The Audit Committee of the Registrant is leading an internal investigation with assistance from its independent legal counsel, forensic accountants and the Registrant's internal audit department, into misconduct involving Michael W. Gullion, the Registrant's former Chief Executive Officer. The internal investigation is substantially complete. The Registrant is preparing financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and selected financial data and working closely with KPMG to satisfy KPMG's remaining informational requirements as quickly as possible in an effort to obtain the audit report within 15 days after the date hereof so that the Registrant can amend its Form 10-K within that same time period in order to include the omitted items and thereby deem the Form 10-K, as so amended, to have been timely filed on March 31, 2003.

						ý Yes        o 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?
