SECTION 4 - MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Item 4.02 - Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related
Audit Report or Completed Interim Review

         (a) The Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, Thomas I. Nail, concluded on March 29, 2005 that the financial
statements issued by the Company for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004, the
annual report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Form 10-K for
that fiscal year, and the quarterly reports to the SEC on Form 10-Q for the
first three quarters of the fiscal year ended January 1, 2005, should no longer
be relied upon because of an error in such financial statements, as specified
below.

         For the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004, the Company calculated the
valuation allowance (mark-down) based upon the gross value of deferred tax
assets which was $980,000. The Company has concluded that this calculation
should be restated to calculate the valuation allowance based on the difference
between deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax
liabilities exceeded deferred tax assets by $394,000 during the fiscal year
ended January 3, 2004. The effect of the change will be to reduce the Company's
total assets as of January 3, 2004 by $60,000, decrease total liabilities by
$980,000, increase total shareholders' equity by $920,000 and decrease by
$920,000 the Company's net loss for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004.

         Following is a summary of the impact of the restatement on the
previously issued Statement of Operations and Balance Sheet for the fiscal year
ended January 3, 2004, and for the first three quarters of the fiscal year ended
January 1, 2005:

                                  PRESS RELEASE

         Valdese, NC, April 1, 2005 - Burke Mills, Inc. (OTCBB:BMLS.OB) today
announced that the financial statements issued by the Company for the fiscal
year ended January 3, 2004 required a restatement with respect to calculation of
the valuation allowance (mark-down) of deferred tax assets.

         For the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004, the Company calculated the
valuation allowance (mark-down) based upon the gross value of deferred tax
assets which was $980,000. The Company has concluded that this calculation
should be restated to calculate the valuation allowance based on the difference
between deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax
liabilities exceeded deferred tax assets by $394,000 during the fiscal year
ended January 3, 2004. The effect of the change will be to reduce the Company's
total assets as of January 3, 2004 by $60,000, decrease total liabilities by
$980,000, increase total shareholders' equity by $920,000 and decrease by
$920,000 the Company's net loss for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2004.
