Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
The Registrant reported on its Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, that effective
March 18, 1999, the Registrant dismissed the accounting firm of Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc., Englewood, Colorado, as its principal independent accountant. The
Registrant's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997,
were prepared assuming that the Registrant will continue as a going concern.
The Registrant's Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, further reported that on
March 18, 1999, the Registrant engaged James E. Scheifley & Associates, P.C.,
Denver, Colorado, as its new principal independent accountant to audit the
Registrant's financial statements. Neither the Registrant nor anyone on its
behalf has consulted James E. Scheifley & Associates, P.C. regarding the
application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated
transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the
Registrant's financial statements.
The Registrant's Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, further reported that, in
addition, the Form 8-K was being filed to disclose (1) that the decision to
change accountants was recommended and approved by the Registrant's Board of
Directors; (2) that none of the former accountant's reports on the financial
statements of the Registrant for either of the last two years contained an
adverse opinion or a disclaimer or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope, or accounting principles; and (3) that during the Registrant's two
most recent fiscal years, there were not any disagreements with Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or "reportable events" with
the former accountants. A copy of a letter from Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.,
Englewood, Colorado, the Registrant's former accountants, stating their
agreement or disagreement with these disclosures was attached to the
Registrant's Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, as Exhibit 16.1.
This Form 8-K/A is being filed to report that during the Registrant's two
most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period through March 18,
1999, the date of such dismissal, there were no disagreements with Levine Hughes
& Mithuen Inc. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc., would have caused
it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection
with its report.
This Form 8-K/A is being filed to further report that during the
Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period
through March 18, 1999, the date of such dismissal, none of the following kinds
of events occurred:
(a) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having advised the Registrant that the
internal controls necessary for the Registrant to develop reliable financial
statements do not exist;
(b) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having advised the Registrant that
information has come to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s attention that has led it
to no longer be able to rely on management's representations, or that has made
it unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by
management;

(c)(1) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having advised the Registrant of the
need to expand significantly the scope of its audit, or that information has
come to the accountant's attention during the Registrant's two most recent
fiscal yars and any subsequent interim period through March 18, 1999, the date
of such dismissal, that if further investigated may (i) materially impact the
the fairness or reliability of either: a previously issued audit report or the
underlying financial staements, or the financial statements issued or to be
issued covering the fiscal periods subsequent to the date of the most recent
financial staements covered by an audit report (including information that may
prevent it from rendering an unqualified audit report on those financial
statements), or (ii) cause it to be unwilling to rely on management's
representations or be associated with the Registrant's financial statements, and
(2) due to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s dismissal, or for any other reason,
Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc. did not so expand the scope of tis audit or conduct
such further investigation; or
(d)(1) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having advised the Registrant that
information has come to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s attention that it has
concluded materially impacts the fairness or reliability of either (i) a
prevously issued audit report or the underlying financial statements, or (ii)
the financial statements issued or to be issued covering the fiscal periods
subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements covered by an
audit report (including information that, unless resolved to Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc.'s satisfaction, would prevent it from rendering an unqualified
audit report on those financial statements), and (2) due to Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc.'s dismissal, or for any other reason, the issue has not been
resolved to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s satisfaction prior to its dismissal.
