Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
----------------------------------------------
On September 17, 1996, Country World Casinos, Inc., the Registrant (the
"Company") retained Moore Stephens, P.C. as its principal independent
accountant, which firm replaced Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C. Ehrhardt
Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C. was previously engaged as the principal accountant
to audit the Company's financial statements for the Company's two most recent
fiscal years.
The Report of Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C. on the financial
statements of the Company for either of the past two years did not contain an
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles, with the exception of the uncertainty
regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company does
not believe that there were any disagreements with Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner &
Hottman P.C. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, during the past which, if
not resolved to Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C.'s satisfaction, would have
caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in
connection with its Report.
The Company has requested Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C. to furnish
a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the
statements made by the Company, and, if not, stating the respects in which it
does not agree. A letter from Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman P.C. is included
as Exhibit 16 to this Report, stating its agreement with the statements made by
the Company in this Report.
The Company has requested Moore Stephens, P.C. to review the disclosure
provided in this Report before it is filed with the Commission and has provided
Moore Stephens, P.C. the opportunity to furnish the Company with a letter
addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of the
Company's expression of its views, or the respects in which it does not agree
with the statements made in this Report. Moore Stephens, P.C. has informed the
Company that it has reviewed these disclosures and does not intend to furnish
the Company with a letter.
