                        PART II RULES 12B-25 (b) AND (c)

         If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the

              _X_      (a)     The reasons described in reasonable detail in
                               Part III of this form could not be eliminated
                               without unreasonable effort or expense;

                       (b)      The subject annual report, semi-annual report,
                                transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K

                                subject quarterly report or transition report on
                                Form 10-Q, or portion thereof, will be filed on
                                or before the fifth calendar day following the
                                prescribed due date; and

                       (c)      The accountant's statement or other exhibit
                                required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if
                                applicable.


                               PART III NARRATIVE

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

         In connection with the preparation of the Registrant's financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, the Registrant is reviewing
certain accounting matters, including those relating to certain co-borrowing
credit facilities to which the Registrant is party. Because this review is
ongoing, the Registrant has not yet completed its financial statements, received
its independent auditors' report thereon, or filed its Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001. As a result, the Registrant has been unable to complete
its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 within the prescribed time
period without unreasonable effort or expense.

                            PART IV OTHER INFORMATION

(1)      Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
                  notification.

                  Erland E. Kailbourne, Acting Chief Executive Officer and
                  Chairman (814) 274-9830

(2)     Have all other periodic reports required under section 13 or 15(d) of
                  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).

                                  ___Yes _X_ No

                              See Part III, above.

                  The Registrant is continuing to review certain accounting
                  matters relating to the Company's financial statements for the
                  year ended December 31, 2001. Because this review is ongoing,
                  the Registrant has not yet completed its financial statements,
                  received its independent auditors' report thereon, and filed
                  its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

(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?  _X_ Yes ___ No

         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.

                  The Registrant is continuing to review certain accounting
                  matters as discussed above and the Registrant continues to
                  focus significant time and effort in order to complete its
                  financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001,
                  receive its independent auditors' report thereon, and file its
                  Form 10-K for the year then ended. Accordingly, the Company
                  has not completed its review of quarterly results for the
                  period ended March 31, 2002 and is unable to quantify and
                  discuss any significant changes of operations from the
                  corresponding prior period.

undersigned thereunto duly authorized, on May 15, 2002.
