Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Previous independent accountants.
(i) On February 12, 1999, the Registrant's former
accountants, Schneider Downs & Co., Inc. ("SD") were dismissed.
(ii) The reports of SD on the financial statements for the
past two fiscal years of the Registrant contained no adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles.
(iii) The Registrant's Board of Directors participated in and
approved the decision to change independent accountants.
(iv) In connection with its audits for the two most recent
fiscal years and through February 12, 1999, there were no disagreements with SD
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 SD would have caused SD to make reference to them in
their report on the financial statements for such years.
(v) The Registrant has provided SD with a copy of the
disclosures contained herein in response to Item 304 (a) of Regulation S-K no
later than the day that the disclosures were filed with the SEC. Furthermore,
the Registrant has requested SD to furnish the Registrant with a letter
addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the
Registrant in response to Item 304 (a) of Regulation S-K and, if not, stating
the respects in which it does not agree. The Registrant has requested SD to
provide the letter as promptly as possible so that the Registrant can either
file the letter (i) with this report or (ii) with the SEC within 10 business
days after the filing of this report. Notwithstanding the 10 business day
period, the Registrant will endeavor to file such letter by amendment within 3
business days of receipt.
(b) New independent accountant.
The Registrant engaged Feldman Sherb Ehrlich & Co., P.C. as its new
independent accountants as of February 12, 1999. This was approved by the
Registrant's Board of Directors. During the two most recent fiscal years and
through February 12, 1999, the Registrant has not consulted with Feldman Sherb
Ehrlich & Co, P.C. regarding any of the matters set forth in Item 304 (a)(2)(i)
of Regulation S-K.
