that the  registrant  was  required to file such  report(s)  been filed?  If the
answer is no, identify report(s).

            (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?
                                                                [  ] Yes  [X] No
