(3) Explanation of Change
The Registrant anticipates that a 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 Form 10-Q as the Registrant was a shell company during the corresponding period for the last fiscal year. As previously disclosed the registrant has had difficulties finalizing operating results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 which could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense, and consequently is unable to disclose quantitative data at this time.
