The former accountants reported on the Company's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998. The reports of the former accountants on the financial statements for such years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that their reports for each of the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 included a separate paragraph regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Company's Board of Directors. During the Company's years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, and through February 11, 2000, there were no disagreements with the former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountants would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such years.
