Our report, dated April 6, 2001, contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has suffered net losses in each of the last five years, is subject to numerous lawsuits, including those brought against it by shareholders, and based on projected cash flows for the ensuing year the Company will require additional equity or debt financing in order to continue its present operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. /s/ MCGOWAN GUNTERMANN MCGOWAN GUNTERMANN Santa Barbara, California December 13, 2002
