Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant. Effective February 3, 2000, the Board of Directors of SBI Communications, Inc., ("SBI") terminated Daniel, Ratliff And Company ("Ratliff") as its' independent public accountants. Subsequently to our Board of Directors meeting Ratliff resigned. SBI, has been advised by Daneil, Ratliff and Company for the fiscal year ended 1997, the former accountants did not complete the audit due to unresolved issues as outlined in Exhibit 16 of this filing. There were no disagreements of accounting principles that subsequently lead to the resignation of the former accountant. SBI believes, that for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1998, and December 31, 1999 period through March 20, 2000, SBI and Ratliff did not have any agreement or disagreement on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ratliff, would have caused it to make reference in connection with the report on SBI's financial statements to the subject matter of the disagreement. The audit for referenced years was performed by the Company's new accounting and auditing firm Jay J. Shapiro, CPA. We have resolved all issues with our former accountant as follows: Item 1.) The former accountant has resigned from the engaged year of 1997. SBI's new accounting firm will be responsible for the providing SBI an opinion for the 1997 audited financials. Item 2.) A.) The value of the real estate as reflected on the 1998 and 1999 audit was resolved by a purchase of the real estate for $6,000,000.00 in cash and stock. B.) The unrecorded back franchise taxes or fines of $25,000.00 was accrued on the 1998 and 1999 audited statements. This information was obtained by contacted the Secretary of State of Delaware. C.) SBI will amend and re-file the 1997 and 1998 10-KSB to contain accountants opinion. Item 3.) Stock holders and others may contact the Registrant at the disclosed number on it's filings.

April 26, 2000 Office of the Chief Accountant SECPS Letter File Securities and Exchange Commission Mail Stop 9-5 405 Fifth Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20549 Dear Sirs/Madams: We have read Item 4 of Form 8-K/A of SBI Communications, Inc. (the "Registrant") as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2000, and have the following comments. We are not aware of a Board of Directors meeting discussing our termination. If such meeting was held on February 3, 2000, we did resign subsequent to such meeting. The letter states the Registrant has "resolved our disagreement with our former accountant as follows", and proceeds to list items resolved. It is important to note the distinction that we had no disagreement with the Registrant, but that we had not completed audit work to resolve certain issues. As of our last day of field work, no conclusions had been reached by our firm on these issues, and accordingly there were no disagreements. We have not performed any work, or can we verify in any way, the statements as to the resolution of such issues. We agree with all other matters discussed in Item 4 of Form 8-K/A of SBI Communications, Inc.(the "Registrant") as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2000. /s/Daniel, Ratliff & Company - ---------------------------- Daniel, Ratliff & Company Charlotte, North Carolina April 26, 2000 -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
