Exhibit 4

Update Notice from Dr. Jensen

On June 15, 2000 after the BigWheels Case by Rachel Grant was completed, the FASB issued FAS 138 that makes it possible to get hedge accounting treatment for cross-currency swaps.

The new FAS 138 is out today. Pay careful attention. Because this is one of the few standards that goes into effect today for some companies, the FAS 138 standard will a free download until June 30. Then you must purchase FAS 133.

Hi, Bob -

The (four)amendments have been published today as SFAS 138. Thus there was

at least some (temporary) happiness on Wall Street!

All the best,
