(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

(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.
The Net Loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 was $473,834. The
Net Loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 could be substantially
different than that reported for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004,
however, we cannot quantify the amount of such difference as our review of our
financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 has not yet
been completed.
