ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

     On March 22, 2000,  Peaches  Entertainment  Corporation (the  "Registrant")
elected not to renew the  appointment  of KPMG LLP ("KPMG") as the  Registrant's
independent public accountants.

     On March  22,  2000,  the  Registrant  selected  Rachlin  Cohen & Holtz LLP
("Rachlin  Cohen")  to  replace  KPMG  as the  Registrant's  independent  public
accountants.  The decision to change  auditors was approved by resolution of the
full board of directors.

     KPMG's report on the financial statements of the Registrant for each of the
past two fiscal  years did not  contain  any adverse  opinion or  disclaimer  of
opinion and was not  qualified  or modified  as to  uncertainty,  audit scope or
accounting principles.

     During the  Registrant's  two most recent fiscal years,  and the subsequent
interim period through March 22, 2000, there were no disagreements  with KPMG on
any  matter  of  accounting   principles  or  practices,   financial   statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved
to the  satisfaction  of KPMG,  would have caused KPMG to make  reference to the
subject  matter of the  disagreements  in connection  with its audit report with
respect to financial statements of the Registrant.

     During the  Registrant's  two most recent fiscal years,  and the subsequent
interim period through March 22, 2000,  there was no  disagreement or difference
of opinion with KPMG regarding any  "reportable  event," as that term is defined
in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

     The  Registrant  has  provided  KPMG  with a copy of this  Report,  and has
requested  that KPMG  furnish  the  Registrant  with a letter  addressed  to the
Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant.
Such letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.

     During the two most recent fiscal years and the  subsequent  interim period
through  March 22,  2000,  neither  the  Registrant  nor anyone on behalf of the
Registrant   consulted   Rachlin  Cohen  regarding  either  the  application  of
accounting principles to a specified transaction,  either completed or proposed,
or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial  statements
of the  Registrant or any matter that was either the subject of a  disagreement,
within the meaning of Item  304(a)(1)(iv)  of Regulation  S-K, or any reportable
event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

                                    29, 2000, with respect to change of
                                    registrant's certifying accountant.
