ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On February 27, 1998, Prime Air, Inc. (the "Company") engaged Rutherford
& Company, Chartered Accountants, as independent auditors of the Company for
the year ended December 31, 1997. The decision to retain Rutherford &
Company, and not to re-engage Orton & Company, the former independent auditor,
was made by the Board of Directors on such date. The decision not to
re-engage Orton & Company did not involve a dispute with the Company over
accounting policies or practices. The report of Orton & Company on the
Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996, did not
contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principals. In connection with the
audit of the Company's financial statements for such year ended December 31,
1996, there were no disagreements with Orton & Company on any matters of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
Orton & Company, would have caused such firm to make reference to the matter
in its report. Neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, has consulted
Rutherford & Company regarding the application of accounting principles to a
specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither
written nor oral advice was provided by Rutherford & Company that was an
important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any
accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue.
