Ramirez Jimenez International’s report on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30th, 2010 and 2009 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  During the Company's fiscal years ended June 30th, 2010 , June 30th 2009 and through January 31, 2011, there were no disagreements with Ramirez Jimenez International on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Ramirez Jimenez International’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on the Company's consolidated financial statements for such period.

During the Company’s years ended June 30th, 2010 and 2009 and through January 31, 2011, there were no “reportable events” (hereinafter defined) requiring disclosure pursuant to Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.  As used herein, the term “reportable event” means any of the items listed in paragraphs (a)(1)(v)(A)-(D) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided Ramirez Jimenez International with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that Ramirez Jimenez International review such disclosures and provide a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission as specified by Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K.

During the Company’s years ended June 30th, 2010 and 2009 and through January 31, 2011, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted McGladrey & Pullen LLP  regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that McGladrey & Pullen LLP  concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
