State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K,
10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report portion thereof, could not be
filed within the prescribed time period.
Due to the unusual complexities involved in the financial statements
contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as significant events
occurring within the last few days that had to be included in the disclosure of
material litigation matters, the registrant was unable to timely file the
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
PART IV

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter
period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?
If the answer is no, identify report(s).
_X_ Yes _ No
(3) Is it anticipated that any 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 subject report or portion
thereof?

If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.

registrant expects that its results of operations will reflect a loss of
approximately $475 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to a
profit of approximately $6 million for the comparable quarter in 2008.
