[HOWARD HEDINGER LETTERHEAD]
July 22, 1999
The Sirena Apparel Group, Inc.
2825 South Santa Fe Avenue
Vernon, CA 90058
I hereby resign as a director of The Sirena Apparel Group, Inc., (the Company)
effective immediately. I also resign from any and all positions I may hold as
an officer or member of any committee of the Company, effective immediately.
During recent weeks it has become apparent that the Company's views with
respect to matters of corporate governance differ from my own. Counsel and
consultants for the Company have undertaken to protect the interests of
creditors and shareholders of the Company. Additionally, the Company has been
unable or unwilling to perform with respect to certain of its contractual
undertakings with American Industries, Inc., a company in which I am a
substantial investor such that my own financial interests may differ from those
of the Company. Under these circumstances, it is necessary for me to submit this
resignation.
Very truly yours,
/s/ HOWARD H. HEDINGER
