ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
We have engaged a new Independent Auditor, prospectively, to review and
comment on its next Annual Report, and to assist management in preparing other
current reports.
There has been no dispute of any kind or sort with any auditor on any
subject.
The new principal independent accounting firm is Merdiner, Fruchter, Rosen
& Corso, 888 7th Avenue, New York, NY 10106, 212-757-8400, replacing Todd D.
Chisholm cpa of Crouch, Bierwolf & Chisholm, our initial principal auditor. The
decision to change accountants was recommended and approved by our new Board of
Directors, following the change of control of this Reporting Corporation.
The former auditor, Todd D. Chisholm cpa of Crouch, Bierwolf & Chisholm,
neither resigned nor declined to stand for election. The former auditor's
reports on the financial statements for either of the past two years contained
no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the two most recent
fiscal years and later interim periods through the termination of the
client-auditor relationship, there were no disagreements of the type described
under Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(A) of Regulation S-B.
The firm of Merdiner, Fruchter, Rosen & Corso was engaged by the Board of
Directors as the new certifying accountants on August 21, 2000.
A letter addressed to the Secuirites and Exchanges Commission from the
former auditor stating his agreement with the disclosures made in this filing is
filed as an exhibit hereto.
