The Company provided the Former Auditor with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that the Former Auditor furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.
