ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS.
(a)
On February 10, 2000, the Registrant notified its principal independent
accountant, Williams & Webster P.S., that it will not be engaged to audit the
Registrant's financial statements for the year ending December 31, 1999.
The principal accountant's report on the financial statements for either of the
past two years has contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor
was modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
The decision to change accountants was approved by the board of directors or an
audit or similar committee of the board of directors
There were no disagreements with the former account on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which, if not resolved to the former accountants satisfaction, would
have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in
connection with its report.
A copy of the accountant's letter to the Commission will be filed as an
amendment.
The Registrant has complied with the requirements of Item 304(a)(3) of
Regulation SB with regard to providing the former accountant with a copy of the
disclosure it is making in response to this Item and has requested the former
accountant to furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it
agrees with the statements made by the Issuer and, if not, stating the respects
in which it does not agree
(b)
On February 10, 2000 the Registrant engaged the accounting firm LeMaster &
Daniels, PLLC. During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company
did not consult with LeMaster & Daniels, PLLC regarding: (I) the application of
accounting principles to a specified transaction; (ii) the type of opinion that
might be rendered on the Company's Financial Statements; or (iii) any matter
that was the subject of a disagreement with the Registrant's former accountant
or a reportable event (as contemplated by Item 304 of Regulation SB).
