| Explanation | THIS RETURN IS BEING FILED LATE DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL. THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS AFFECTED OUR OPERATION SUBSTANTIALLY BY CAUSING OFFICE CLOSINGS; DIFFICULTY RETRIEVING RECORDS; EMPLOYEES UNABLE TO BE ACCOMMODATED IN THE WORKSPACE DUE TO DISTANCING AND/OR CHILD-CARING REQUIREMENTS; TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS. IN NEW YORK CITY THE STATE AND LOCAL CONDITIONS IMPOSED HAVE BEEN PARTICULARLY DIFFICULT.WE HAVE EXERCISED OUR BEST AND PRUDENT EFFORTS TO CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONAL AFFAIRS DURING THIS DIFFICULT PERIOD, BUT WE BELIEVE THE ABOVE CONDITIONS CONSTITUTE REASONABLE CAUSE FOR OUR INABILITY TO FILE THIS RETURN ON TIME.WE THEREFORE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT LATE FILING PENALTY NOT BE ASSESSED IN THIS SITUATION. | ExplanationTxt |
