Re: The Orlando Predators Entertainment, Inc. Form 10-KSB
Dear Sir or Madam:
The Company is unable to file its 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB within the
prescribed time period because it has experienced certain difficulties in
providing the requisite financial information to this Firm for the audit due to
the Arena Football League's (the League) labor issues and the League's inability
to provide audited financial statements which are required for the Company's
accounting.
Very truly yours,
AJ. ROBBINS, P.C.
