independent registered public accounting firm effective upon filing of the Company&#146;s Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of BDO. The Audit
Committee simultaneously approved the appointment of Crowe Chizek and Company LLC (&#147;Crowe Chizek&#148;) as the Company&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, subject to Crowe
Chizek completing normal client acceptance processes and procedures. On March&nbsp;7, 2007, Crowe Chizek completed its normal client acceptance processes and procedures and informed the Company that it could be engaged as the Company&#146;s

on the Company&#146;s financial statements for such period. BDO is in the process of completing their audit for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006 and the Company anticipates filing their Form 10-K annual report no later than March&nbsp;31, 2007.
