Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
At its committee meeting on January 23, 1996, the audit
committee of the board of directors of Pikeville National
Corporation, voted to engage Ernst & Young as its
independent accountants for 1996, subject to approval of the
full board of directors at its next meeting. Ernst & Young
replaces Crowe, Chizek and Company as registrant's
independent accountants.
During the last two most recent fiscal years and
interim period prior to January 23, 1996, there have been no
disagreements with Crowe, Chizek and Company on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or any reportable
events.
Crowe, Chizek and Company's report on the financial
statements for the past two years contained no adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles.
The registrant has requested that Crowe, Chizek and
Company furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC
stating whether it agrees with the above statements. The
letter will be filed as an amendment when available.
