Item 4.02  Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
    
         On March 28, 2008, we filed an amended annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  This amended annual report contained restated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005.  The 2004 financial statements were restated to reflect:  (1) a recalculation of amortization relating to the deferred gain on a sale/leaseback transaction so that amortization is based upon life of acquired equipment instead of loan repayment amortization, and (2) the reclassification of components of other income deemed to be operating and therefore offset against cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses.  The 2005 financial statements were restated to: (1) include the accounts of Timbermans Group Pty. Ltd., an entity deemed to be a Variable Interest Entity, (2) reclassify related party receivable against payable to the same related party, and (3) reflect the reclassification of loans from National Australia Bank to current from other liabilities.
 
    To track the changes that were brought about as a result of the restatement of these financial statements, we concluded on March 28, 2008 to soon amend our periodic report on Form 10-QSB for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, our periodic report on Form 10-QSB for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and our periodic report on Form 10-QSB for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005.  Until such time as those periodic reports are amended, you should not rely upon the financial information contained in those periodic.
    
        Our authorized officer has discussed the matters disclosed in this filing with our independent registered accounting firm, Meyler & Company, LLC ("Meyler").  Meyler audited our restated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 and has agreed to review the unaudited financial statements in the periodic reports that we stated that we are amending.
