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. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
The registrant is unable to file timely its Annual Report on Form 10-Q because its interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2007 are not yet finalized.

(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     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?
x   Yes     o   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.
As part of our normal review processes our finance team recognized an error in the accounting for our deferred compensation plan. In prior periods we had tracked the plan’s assets along with the liability to the plan participants but we did not record these amounts in our financial statements as they essentially netted to zero. In accordance with deferred compensation accounting literature, we should have presented these items separately, or “grossed up” on our balance sheets and recorded gains or losses on the invested assets as other income/expense, offset by an equal amount of compensation expense, on our statements of operations. We believe that the quantitative impact of this error on our prior financial statements is immaterial. Nevertheless, we plan to amend our Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006 and our Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2006 as soon as is practicable to reflect a restatement of the financial statements included in those filings to correct this error.
