(b) |
The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and |

PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
NeuroMetrix, Inc. (the Company) is unable to timely file an Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 without unreasonable effort or expense. The principal reason for the delay in filing the Annual Report on Form 10-K is that the Company requires additional time to complete a review of the magnitude of its potential liability for state sales and use taxes and its assessment of the related internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company is currently working with its independent registered public accounting firm to finalize the audit of its financial statements to be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
