NARRATIVE
State
below in reasonable detail why the Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR,
or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.
We
experienced unanticipated technical difficulties with the interactive data files
we were trying to file as an exhibit to our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
September 30, 2009 (“Form 10-Q”). Because of the timing and the
unexpected difficulties, we were unable to modify our Form 10-Q in time to
comply with the temporary hardship exemption provided by Rule 201 of Regulation
S-T. We were able to resolve the technical issue and file the Form
10-Q in the evening of November 9, 2009, after the 5:30 EST
deadline.
