Re: The Orlando Predators, Inc. Form 10-KSB
Dear Sir or Madam:
The Company is unable to file its 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB within the
prescribed time period because it has experienced certain difficulties in
providing the requisite financial information to this Firm for the audit due to
the increase in the number of transactions and finalization of agreements.
Very truly yours,
AJ. ROBBINS, P.C.
