AUDITORS' REPORT
To the shareholders of Total Medical inc.
We have audited the balance sheet of Total Medical Inc. as at May 31, 1999 and
the statements of income, deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. This
financial statement is the responsibility of the company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our
audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable
assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation.
In our opinion, this financial statement presents fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the company as at May 31, 1999 and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

11. CONTINGENCY
With the arrival of the year 2000 comes the computer system problem arising from
the industry's use of 2 digits instead of 4 to designate a year. The Year 2000
Problem may manifest itself on, before or after January 1, 2000. Date-sensitive
systems could confuse the year 2000 with the year 1900 or perhaps another year.
This would lead to errors when the year 2000 is entered into a system. Moreover,
similar problems could occur in systems where certain dates in 1999 represent
things other than dates. If the problem is not resolved, the consequences could
range from minor inconvenience to a complete breakdown in a company's ability to
operate normally and to utilise financial information. It is impossible to know
if all of the aspects of the Year 2000 Problem as it pertains to the company
will be resolved despite the best efforts of customers, suppliers, and other
interested parties.

AUDITORS' REPORT
To the shareholders of Total Medical inc.
We have audited the balance sheet of Total Medical Inc. as at May 31, 1998 and
the statements of income and deficit and changes in financial position for the
year then ended. This financial statement is the responsibility of the company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable
assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation.
In our opinion, this financial statement presents fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the company as at May 31, 1998 and the
results of its operations and the changes in its financial position for the year
then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
