PART III - NARRATIVE State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed with the prescribed time period. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed) PART III NARRATIVE The Company has completed two acquisitions since the March 31, 2000 fiscal quarter and therefore were not reflected in the Form 10Q for the previous year. The first acquisition, an acquisition of assets, occurred in April 2000 and the second, a stock purchase occurred on October 2000. As a result of these acquisitions (including an increase in the Company's credit facilities which occurred in April 2000 to facilitate the initial acquisition), and the continued growth of the Company's operations, the Company's earnings statements to be included in this current Form 10Q will reflect significant changes from the prior period. Revenues for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001 are expected to be approximately $158,371,000, a significant increase from the March 31, 2000 fiscal quarter's revenues of $79,602,000. Direct expenses, which include direct costs of services such as wages, employment taxes, workers' compensation costs and costs of health and benefits, also increased to $151,868,000 in the March 31, 2001 quarter from $75,105,000 in the March 31, 2000 fiscal quarter. Net Income increased to $301,000 in the March 31, 2001 quarter from $198,000 in the March 31, 2000 quarter. As previously disclosed, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with BirghtLane.com, Inc. on March 6, 2001 whereby it will acquire BrightLane. Additionally, in order to prepay a certain portion of its outstanding credit facilities to FINOVA Capital, the Company also sold to BrightLane $3,5000,000 of a newly created preferred stock on April 12, 2001. Management has been devoting substantial effort and resources to complete the acquisition and the preferred stock sale. Moreover, management is presently preparing a joint proxy statement/registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the SEC in order to obtain shareholder approval of the BrightLane transaction. As a result of these recent transactions, and the ongoing preparation of the Form S-4 registration statement, the Company is unable to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 without unreasonable expense and effort due to its inability to complete the compilation of all necessary financial information and to provide sufficient time for review by its independent auditors.
