Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On July 20, 2000 Maritime Transport & Technology Inc. ("Maritime" or
the "Company") informed Thomas P. Monahan, CPA ("Monahan") that it is dismissing
him as the Company's principal independent public accountant.
The decision to dismiss Monahan was recommended and approved by the
Company's Board of Directors. In addition, the Company's Board of Directors has
retained J.H. Cohn LLP as its new independent public accountant.
None of the reports of Thomas P. Monahan, CPA, on the Company's audited
financial statements as of and for the years ended May 31, 1998 and the
Company's 1999 and the unaudited financial statements for the interim periods
through August 31, 1999 contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion
and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
In connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements as
of and for the years ended May 31, 1998 and 1999 and for the Company's unaudited
financial statements for the interim periods through August 31, 1999, there have
been no disagreements with Thomas P. Monahan, CPA, on any matters of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and
procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Thomas
P. Monahan, CPA, would have caused Monahan to make references to his reports on
the Company's financial statements as of and for the years ended May 31, 1998
and 1999, and none of the events described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
