PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

The registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended May 31, 2017 could not be filed by the prescribed due date of July 17, 2017 because registrant is in the midst of capital raising activities which has resulted in the delay of the completion of its periodic financial reporting processes due to the currently small accounting staff servicing the registrant. As a result, the completion of the registrant's financial statements for the three and six months ended May 31, 2017 is ongoing. Accordingly, the registrant is unable to file such report within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. The registrant anticipates that the subject quarterly report will be filed on or before July 24, 2017.
