approved by the Company's audit committee. During the last two fiscal years and
thereafter through the date of this report there were no disagreements with BDO
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
The Company is in the process of finalizing its selection of a new
independent registered public accounting firm. Effective with the engagement of
the new independent registered public accounting firm, the Company will file any
amendments to this report on Form 8-K as required concerning the matters set
forth in Item 304 (a)(2) of Regulation S-K.
