In connection with the audits of the Company's financial
statements for the fiscal periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and through
June 30, 2011, there were: (i) no
disagreements between the Company and JSW on any matters of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure,
or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of JSW, would have caused JSW to make
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports
on the Company's financial statements for such periods, and (ii) no
reportable events of the type listed in paragraphs (A) through (D)
of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
