Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung and subsidiaries

EXHIBIT 10.2

STATEMENT REGARDING AUDITORS’
CONSENT

     
The consolidated financial statements of SAP
Aktiengesellschaft Systeme, Anwendungen, Produkte in der
Datenverarbeitung (the “Company”) for each of the
years ended 2001 and 2000, included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 20-F, have been audited by Arthur Andersen
Wirschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft
mbH (“Arthur Andersen”). On May 3, 2002, the
Company dismissed Arthur Andersen as its independent public
accountants and engaged KPMG Deutsche Treuhand-Gesellschaft
Aktiengesellschaft Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft to serve
as the Company’s independent public accountants for the
fiscal year 2002. After reasonable efforts, the Company has been
unable to obtain Arthur Andersen’s consent to the
incorporation by reference into this registration statement on
Form 20-F of its audit report with respect to the
Company’s financial statements referenced above.

     
Under these circumstances, Rule 437a under
the Securities Act permits the Company to file the Annual
Report, which is incorporated by reference into the
Company’s previously filed registration statements on
Form S-8 (Nos. 333-60399, 333-65083, 333-30380, 333-41762,
333-63496, 333-63464 and 333-102564) without a written consent
from Arthur Andersen. However, because Arthur Andersen has not
consented to the inclusion of its report in this annual report
on Form 20-F, as incorporated by reference into the above
referenced registration statements, recovery by investors
relying on any such registration statement that incorporates
this annual report on Form 20-F by reference may be limited
on certain claims. In particular, and without limitation,
purchasers of securities under each such registration statement
may not be able to assert claims against Arthur Andersen under
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act for any untrue
statements of a material fact contained in the financial
statements referenced above and incorporated therein or any
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein. In
addition, the ability of Arthur Andersen to satisfy any claims
(including claims arising from Arthur Andersen’s provision
of auditing and other services to the Company) may be limited as
a practical matter due to recent events regarding Arthur
Andersen.Seth R. Winterton

Dear  Cody:

     I  thought  I  should formalize our understanding with regards to Winterton
Ranches'  contract  to purchase trout from Woodland Hatchery, Inc.  The original
contract  calls for the purchase of 2,000 pounds of fish on or about July 1st of
2002,  which  did  not  occur  due  to  slow  maturing  fish.

     I  want  you let you know that Winterton Ranches will purchase as many fish
as  you can produce this next season, as they mature-the sooner the better.   It
is  my  hope that the warm winter will further the maturing process along and we
will  have  plenty  for  our  needs.

Thank  you.
