================================================================================

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense

/ /         (a)   The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this

                  expense:

================================================================================
PART III -- NARRATIVE
================================================================================


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

Immtech International, Inc. (the "Company"), a development stage enterprise,
completed in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, private
placement offerings which raised in the aggregate approximately $4,000,000 of
equity capital (before offering costs) through the issuance of 160,100 shares of
Series A convertible preferred stock, $0.01 par value, and warrants to purchase
400,250 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value. Each share of
Series A convertible preferred stock was sold for a stated value of $25 and,
with each share purchased, the shareholder was granted a warrant to purchase 2.5
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share.

            Recently issued accounting standards have addressed the way equity
transactions of this nature are to be recorded. In a case such as this where two
types of securities are sold for a single unit price, the accounting standards
address how to allocate the proceeds from the offerings to the specific
securities sold and reported in the Company's balance sheet. The Company
believes the application of the aforementioned accounting standards will have no
effect on the Company's total stockholders' equity. However, as a result of the
impact of the of the accounting standards on the accounting and other resources
needed to finalize the recording of such equity transactions in the Company's
financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, the
Company, without unreasonable effort and expense, cannot complete and compile
its annual financial statements and file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 within the prescribed time period.

In accordance with Rule 12(b)-25(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and pursuant to Part II(b) of this Form 12b-25, the Company plans to
file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2002 within
fifteen (15) calendar days following the prescribed due date thereof.
