(a) On December 5, 1996, the Board of Directors of Rose International Ltd.
(the "Company") approved the appointment of Guest & Company, as the
independent auditors of the Company for the year ending December 31,
1996 and also approved the dismissal of BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO") as the
Company's independent auditors.
(b) During the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the subsequent interim
periods preceding the dismissal of BDO, there were no disagreements
between the Company and BDO 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
BDO, would have caused it to make reference in its report to the
subject matter of the disagreement.

ended December 31, 1995 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion nor was it qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
(d) The Company has requested BDO to furnish it with a letter addressed to
the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether BDO agreed with
the statements made by the Company herein and, if not, stating the
