The reports of the Former Accountant on Flitways Technology Inc.s

which were deemed to be material weaknesses in the Companys
internal control by the Former Accountant. The material
weaknesses identified were the following:
|
Inadequate design of internal control over the preparation of the financial statements being audited. |
|
Inadequate design of internal control over a significant account or process. |
|
Inadequate documentation of the components of internal control. |
| Insufficient control consciousness within the Company. |
|
Failure to identify material misstatement and assessing the risk of material misstatement. |
| Ineffective response to identified significant risks. |
|
Absence of segregation of duties within a significant account or process. |

Accountant) through to February 16, 2017, the date of dismissal,
there have been no disagreements with the Former Accountant on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the Former
Accountant, would have caused the Former Accountant to make
reference thereto in its report on the Companys financial
statements.
