Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
a) On July 15, 1999, Beck, Weiss & Company, Arc Communications Inc.'s (the
"Company") independent auditor for the previous two fiscal years, resigned
in that capacity as a result of the Company's newly reporting status and

federal and state securities laws. On that same date, Beck, Weiss & Company
accepted the position of the Company's principal accountant.
b) On July 15, 1999, the Registrant's Board of Directors approved the
engagement of Richard A. Eisner & Company, LLP to serve as independent
auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999. Further, on that
same date, Richard A. Eisner & Company, LLP entered into an engagement
letter with the Company to provide independent auditor services.
c) During fiscal years 1998 and 1997, respectively, there were no
disagreements with Beck, Weiss & Company on any matter of accounting
principals or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
or procedure or any reportable events.
d) The Registrant has requested that Beck, Weiss & Company furnish it with a
letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether
it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the Beck, Weiss & Company
letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated March 29, 1999 is
