Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountants

     On December  16, 1997,  the  appointment  of Rosenberg  Rich Baker Berman &
Company  as  independent  auditors  for the  Registrant  was  terminated  by the
Registrant and Friedman Alpren & Green was engaged as independent auditors.  The
decision to change  independent  auditors was approved by the Board of Directors
at a meeting on December 9, 1997.  During the fiscal  years ended  December  31,
1995 and 1996 and the subsequent interim period through December 17, 1997, there
were no  disagreements  between the Registrant and Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman &
Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure,  or auditing scope or procedures which disagreements if not resolved
to the  satisfaction  of Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company would have caused
them to make reference to the subject matter of the  disagreement  in connection
with their  reports.  The audit reports of Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company
on the Registrant's  financial  statements for the years ended December 31, 1995
and 1996 did not contain an adverse  opinion or disclaimer of opinion,  nor were
they qualified or modified as to audit scope, or accounting principle.

     SEC File No. 0-21585
     Form 8-K; filed 12/19/97

Dear Ms. Barrows:

     There were no disgreements, as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv), between the
Company and ourselves during the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent
interim period through December 17, 1997, although we were not consulted nor did
we give any  accounting  advice  during the  interim  period.  Our report on the
financial  statements for either of the past two fiscal years did not contain an
adverse  opinion or  disclaimer  of  opinion,  nor was the report  qualified  or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

                                        Very truly yours,



                                        Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & CO

                                        /s/Kenneth A. Berman
