client-accountant relationship with the Company.

          (ii) Comisky & Company's  audit report on the financial  statements of
     the Company as of May 31, 1999 and for the two years ended May 31, 1999 and
     1998  contained  no adverse  opinion or  disclaimer  of opinion and was not
     qualified  or  modified  as to  uncertainty,  audit  scope,  or  accounting
     principals.

          (iii) Not applicable

          (iv)  During  the  Company's  two most  recent  fiscal  years  and any
     subsequent  iterim  period,  there  were no  disagreements  with  Comisky &
     Company, within the meaning of Instruction 4 to Item 304 of Regulation S-K,
     on any matter of accounting  principals or practices,  fincancial statement
     disclosure,  or auditing  scope or procedure,  which  disagreements  if not
     resolved to their  satisfaction would have caused Comisky & Company to make
     reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its
     report.

          (v)  During  the  Company's  two  most  recent  fiscal  years  and any

independent  accountants for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2000.  During the two
most recent  fiscal years and any  subsequent  interim  period prior to engaging
Hood & Strong,  the Company did not consult with Hood & Strong  regarding either
(i) the application of accounting principals to a specified transaction,  either
completed  or proposed;  or the type of audit  opinion that might be rendered on
the  Company's  financial  statements;  or (ii) any  matter  that was either the
subject matter of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation
S-K and the  related  instructions)  or a  reportable  event (as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

     (c) The Company has requested  that Comisky & Company review the disclosure
and that firm has been given an  opportunity  to furnish the  Registrant  with a
letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification
of the Company's  expression  of its views,  or the respect in which it does not
agree with the statements made by the Company herein. Such letter is filed as an
exhibit to this Report.
