Independent Customer Billing
Internal Control Report 


 To the Members of
Acusis LLC and Subsidiary

We have examined the effectiveness of Acusis LLC and Subsidiary's internal control over financial reporting, including particular focus on
customer billing in accordance with Acusis LLC's published billing methodology, as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in
Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Acusis
LLC and Subsidiary’s management is responsible for maintaining effective
internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included obtaining an understanding of the internal control over financial reporting, testing, and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of the internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Because of inherent limitations in any internal control, misstatements due
to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any
evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.


In our opinion, Acusis LLC and Subsidiary maintained, in all material
respects, effective internal control over financial reporting, including
customer billing based on published pricing methods, as of December 31,
2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO).
