Dear Mr. Lancaster,

This letter will confirm the understanding of the measures that will be taken by Anderson, Olds, and Watershed (herein after known as AOW) to perform the audit for Apollo Shoes, Inc., for the year ending December 31, 2007. This audit will review the financial statements with the purpose of issuing an option on the fairness of the statements. This audit will take into consideration the financial position of Apollo Shoes, Inc. and operations, transactions and cash flows to ensure that all laws and regulations are followed as they pertain to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The audit will begin with the collection of relative data and a review of the financial statements. After reviewing the financial statements and relative data it will be wise to perform a risk assessment and to devise an audit plan.

Audits are not designed to uncover any error or fraud that is considered immaterial. If our opinions on the completed audit are less than unqualified, we will contact you in advance to discuss the reasons in full.
