December 18, 1996

To whom it may concern:

Over the course of 18 months starting in June of 1995, CCNS Corporate Services Ltd. contracted Mike Slinn for research, analysis and software development of a WWW site on the Internet.

CCNS was interested in the prospects of offering our services through the WWW and incorporating the latest facets of electronic commerce for our customers to do business over the Internet. Mike Slinn was brought in to assist in developing a solution.

Mike researched our business and the software tools available and, on his recommendation, CCNS chose a platform and bundle of software. Mike contributed in the analysis of the overall needs of our clients and how CCNS could customize our site to best suit their needs. Mike assisted in the design and coding of our site and engineered file structures that ensured ease of management and organization of the application.

I found Mike to be both innovative and sensible in his decision-making and recommendations. Mike takes pride in producing results.

I would not have any hesitation contracting future projects to Mike.

Yours truly,

Don Markley
Senior Vice - President
CCNS Corporate Services Ltd.
