independent accountant of the Company, appointing Arthur Andersen & Company in
its stead. The Company had no disagreement with its former accountant on any
matter of accounting principal or practice, financial statement disclosure or
auditing scope or procedure which would have caused the accountant to make
reference in its report upon the subject matter of the disagreement. Further,
the former principal accountant's report on the financial statements did not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion or qualification as to
audit scope or accounting principle. The decision to accept the resignation of
Halliburton, Hunter & Associates and appoint Arthur Andersen & Company in its
stead was approved by the full Board of Directors since the Company has no audit
or similar committee. The resignation letter of the former accountants is on
file with the Company.
