(the "Company") that it resigned as the Company's principal accountant and auditor. The resignation was effective immediately. The reports of Horton for the past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 contained a going-concern paragraph. Otherwise, the reports did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the past two fiscal years and the interim periods since December 31, 2001, there have been no disagreements with Horton on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedure which, if not resolved to its satisfaction, would have caused Horton to make reference to the matter in its report. Further, during that time, there were no reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. The Company has requested Horton to furnish it a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter, dated July 26, 2002, is filed as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K. (b) On July 23, 2002, the Company, with the approval of its Board of Directors, retained Bagell, Josephs & Company, L.L.C. ("Bagell") to be its new auditor and principal accountant for the year ended December 31, 2002.
