Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountants.
On February 18, 1997, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of
the firm of Reznick Fedder & Silverman to replace Deloitte & Touche LLP.
During the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the subsequent
interim period through December 26, 1996 (the date of Deloitte & Touche
LLP's resignation as the Company's independent accountants), there were
no disagreements with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matters of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure or any "reportable events" with the accountants as
described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v) of Regulation S-K. The
independent accountant's reports of Deloitte & Touche LLP on the
Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended December
31, 1995 and 1994 each expressed an unqualified opinion and included
emphasis paragraphs related to substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
