PART III — NARRATIVE

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

The Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 could not be filed within the prescribed time period due to uncertainty surrounding its filing status that was only recently resolved. The Company’s initial misunderstanding of the “public float” test had led it to suppose that it was now a non-accelerated filer. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of “public float”, based upon averages of the range of its bid and asked prices on the last business day of fiscal 2007’s second quarter, would have led it to have non-accelerated filer status. However, after recent discussions with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company understands the SEC’s staff’s view to be that the public float must be calculated only by looking to either the last sale price on such business day or the average of the last bid and asked prices, but not an average of the range of bid and asked prices prevailing on that business day. Applying that determination in the Company’s calculation resulted in it continuing to be deemed an accelerated filer. Given its initial belief that it was a non-accelerated filer, the Company expected its Form 10-K to be due on March 31, 2008, and scheduled its audit and completion of Form 10-K based on that date. From the date the Company realized its filing status was uncertain, the Company could not accelerate the preparation of its audit and 10-K filing in order to complete it within the prescribed time period.

The Company will report a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to net income for the year ended December 31, 2006; through Sepember 30, 2007, the Company had reported a cumulative net loss of $3,085,022 and indicated it expected additional losses in the fourth quarter, although the amounts of such further loses are still being determined. The net loss is due primarily to reduced sales, the resulting underabsorption of overhead costs, and higher raw material costs.
