CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT On July 23, 2001, the Board of Directors of The Widecom Group, Inc.(the "Company") determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to cease the relationship with its independent accountant and auditors, Schwartz Levitsky Feldman llp, which acted as its independent accountant and auditors with respect to the Company's financial statements for the previous two fiscal years ended March 31, 2000. The replacement of Schwartz Levitsky Feldman llp was recommended and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and is not the result of any disagreement with Schwartz Levitsky Feldman llp on any matter of accounting principles or practice, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure. During the last two fiscal years no report issued by Schwartz Levitsky Feldman llp, contained any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
