Section 4 – Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Effective December 6, 2007, the Company dismissed Cordovano and Honeck, LLP, of Englewood, Colorado, (“the “Former Accountant”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company has engaged Malone & Bailey, PC Certified Public Accountants of Houston, Texas as the Company’s principal accountant. The change in certifying accountant is effective on December 6, 2007. Malone & Bailey have been engaged to audit the Company’s year end financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

Save and except as disclosed below, the Former Accountant did not, for either of the past two years or to the date of the change of certifying accountant, produce a report on the financial statements of the Company which contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion. Save and except as disclosed below, their reports were not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

The financial statements audited by the Former Accountant for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 contained a modified opinion because factors including the Company’s net loss and its not having obtained profitable operations raised substantial doubt that the Company would be able to continue as a going concern.

The decision to change certifying accountants was approved by resolution of the directors of the Company effective the 6th day of December 2007.

For either of the past two years and to the date of the change in certifying accountant, there were no reportable events as described in Regulation S-K 229.304(a)(1)(v) . There were no disagreements, for either of the past two years and to the date of the change of certifying accountant, with the Former Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure of any kind, including any which, if not resolved to the Former Accountant’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report.

The Former Accountant was not, prior to its appointment or in the previous two most recent fiscal years of the Company, consulted by the Company as to the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements and neither written nor oral advice was provided that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting for an auditing or financial reporting issue.
