In early February, 2000, Sundog Technologies, Inc., formerly known as The
Thorsden Group, Ltd. (the "Company") hired a new Chief Financial Officer, Steve
Russo. In preparation for the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 (the "10Q"), Mr. Russo immediately
commenced review of the unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended
December 31, 1999 and determined that certain items needed to be
re-characterized or further explained in footnotes. Mr. Russo immediately
consulted the Company's independent auditors with respect to such disclosures,
and both Mr. Russo and the independent auditors have been diligently working on
the financial statements since that time. Nonetheless, because Mr. Russo
commenced his service with the Company-and thus commenced his review of the
financial statements to be included in the 10Q-less than two weeks before the
filing deadline, despite the prompt and extensive efforts of Mr. Russo and the
outside auditors, the Company has concluded that the 10Q cannot be completed on
a timely basis without unreasonable effort and expense.

narratively and quantitatively and, if appropriate, state the reasons
