Dear Mr. Millis:

 

Pursuant to your request, we have reviewed the September 30, 2003 financial statements of the Company for the purpose of validating our estimate of the fair value of the common stock of the Company at March 31, 2003. Our report dated August 4, 2003 indicated an estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock of $1,876,112 or $0.3568 per share based on 5,257,618.5 common shares issued and outstanding at that date.

 

By applying the same valuation techniques and methods at September 30, 2003 our estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock amounts to $2,211,088 or $.4205 per share based on 5,257,618.5 common shares issued and outstanding at that date.

 

It is significant to note that this letter represents a calculation and consultation as set forth in the proposed statement on standards for valuation services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

 

Very truly yours,
