ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On February 10, 2000, Ault, Inc. terminated the services of McGladrey &
Pullen, LLP as their principal accountant and engaged Deloitte & Touche,
LLP as their principal accountant to audit their financial statements for
the fiscal year ending May 28, 2000. The decision to change accountants
was approved by the Boards of Directors and audit committee of Ault, Inc.
In connection with the audits of the fiscal years ended May 30, 1999 and
May 31, 1998, and in the subsequent interim period through the date of
dismissal, there were no disagreements with McGladrey & Pullen, LLP on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures.
McGladrey & Pullen, LLP's report on the consolidated financial statements
as of and for the years ended May 30, 1999 and May 31, 1998, did not
contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
