Audit Report We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Greasemonkey's Delight as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.

Accordingly, we express the opinion that, up to the point that a review can uncover any mis- statements, the financial statements are stated fairly and were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
