RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS


The Board of Directors has appointed Donahue Associates, L.L.C., as the Company's independent certified public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. Donahue Associates, LLC., was the independent public auditor of the Company for the fiscal year ended 2004, and 2003. Henry C. Schiffer, CPA, An Accountancy Corporation, was the independent public auditor of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 (see footnote (1)). The affirmative vote of a majority of the stockholders has ratified the appointment of Donahue Associates, L.L.C., An Accountancy Corporation, as the Company's independent public auditor.


Footnote (1)

The Board of Directors appointed Henry C. Schiffer, CPA, An Accountancy Corporation, as the Company's independent certified public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003. Henry C. Schiffer, CPA, An Accountancy Corporation, was the independent public auditor of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. The affirmative vote of a majority of the stockholders previously ratified the appointment of Henry C. Schiffer, CPA, An Accountancy Corporation, as the Company's independent public auditor.


(a.)  Our auditing firm, Henry Schiffer, C.P.A., an Accountancy Corporation ("Schiffer"), during the process of auditing the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 had failed to notify the Registrant that Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") had notified them that the Securities and Exchange Commission would no longer accept their statements.


We received notice of this on March 19, 2004, whereon Schiffer informed the Registrant of the PCAOB notice and thereafter resigned.


Our decision to take action to change accountants was approved by the Board telephonically on March 20, and 21, 2004.

During our two most recent fiscal years, and any subsequent interim period preceding the resignation on March 19, 2004, there were no disagreements with the former accountant, Schiffer, on any matter of accounting principals or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Schiffer, would have caused him to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with his reports.


Schiffer did not advise us that internal controls necessary to develop reliable financial statements did not exist; no information had come to Schiffer's attention which would make him unwilling to rely on management's representations, or unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by management. Schiffer did not advise the registrant that the scope of the audit should be expanded significantly, or that information had come to his attention that would materially impact the fairness or reliability of a previously issued audit report or the underlying financial statements or the financial statements issued or to be issued covering the fiscal periods subsequent to the date of the most recent audited financial statements, dated April 14, 2003 (including information that might preclude the issuance of an unqualified audit report).


(b.) We retained the services of Donahue Associates, L.L.C., Monmouth Beach, New Jersey ("Donahue") on March 26, 2004, as our principal accountant.


We did not contact the new accountant prior to its engaging the new accountant regarding the application of accounting principals to a specified transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the registrant's financial statements.


We did not contact the new accountant prior to its engaging the new accountant regarding any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event.


Due to the actions of our previous auditor we were delayed in the filing of our Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003, due on or before March 30, 2004, and other filings which were subsequently filed.
