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 Company is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. On November 13, 2013, the Company's Audit Committee, after considering and concurring with the recommendation of management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA, LLP, that due to a certain tax issue relating to Diversified Scientific Services, Inc. ("DSSI") in existence at the time that the Company acquired DSSI during 2000, the Company will be required to restate the financial statements contained in its 2012 Form 10-K (the "Relevant Periods"). The Company's Audit Committee has concluded that due to the requirement to restate the financial statements for the Relevant Periods, the financial statements for the Relevant Periods should no longer be relied upon. The Company anticipates filing a Form 8-K to discuss the tax issue and the restatement. As a result of the restatement, the Company will not be in a position to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for quarter ended September 30, 2013, until it files the restated financial statements to be contained in a Form 10-K/A for year ended December 31, 2012. As a result, the Company does not believe it will be able to file its Quarterly Report for quarter September 30, 2013, within the five-day extension period offered by Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended.
