discuss any sources of liquid assets used.

Annex C – SRC Rule 12 11

fiscal year and for the comparable interim period in the
preceding year.

Disclosure.

(1) If during the registrant's two most recent fiscal years or any
subsequent interim period, an independent accountant who was
previously engaged as the principal accountant to audit the registrant's
financial statements, or an independent accountant who was
previously engaged to audit a significant subsidiary and on whom the
principal accountant expressed reliance in its report, has resigned, was
dismissed or otherwise ceased performing services for registrant, state
the name of the previous accountant and the date of his resignation,
dismissal or cessation of performing services for registrant.

Annex C – SRC Rule 12 12


January 2001
(2) If there were any disagreements with the former accountant on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the
satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection
with its report, describe such disagreement.

with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees

the registrant within ten (10) business days of the date the accountant

(F) Determination of Offering Price.

(1) Common equity

dilution of the purchasers' equity interest, the following shall be disclosed:

attributable to the cash payments made by purchasers of the shares
being offered; and

which will be absorbed by such purchasers.
