Prior to the engagement the Registrant did not consult with or obtain oral or written advise from J.M. Rose, an accountancy corporation on any accounting, auditing or reporting matters. The decision to change auditors was influenced by cost and the proximity of the accountant to the corporate offices of the Registrant. Simultaneous with the engagement of the new accountant, the Registrant dismissed the firm of Berry,Dunn, McNeil & Parker. The report which Berry, Dunn, McNeil & Parker issued as of and for the year ended April 30, 1999 was unqualified. The report which Berry, Dunn, McNNeil & Parker issued as of and for the year ended ended April 30, 1997 included an explanatory paragraph which raised substantial doubt about the Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern. The change in accountants wa approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors. No disagreements occurred between the Registrant and Berry, Dunn, McNeil & Parker on any accounting, auditing or reporting issue in the last two fiscal years and any subsequent interim prior preceding through the date of their dismissal.
