Dear Ms. Ignat:

We received your letter dated December 19, 2005. Please be advised that due to the holidays and other time off taken by key personnel that are needed to respond to the Commission’s comments, we will have difficulty in meeting the 10 business day deadline for response contained in the comment letter. Therefore, we respectfully request an extension of the deadline for filing our response to January 11, 2006.
