Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
Effective as of December 8, 2000, Tanner + Co. resigned as independent
accountants of Medical Discoveries, Inc. (the "Company").
Neither Tanner + Co.'s report on the Company's financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 1998, nor its report for the year ended December 31,
1999, contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and neither
report was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles, except that both reports were modified as to uncertainty regarding
the ability of the company to continue as a going concern.
The decision to change accountants was not recommended or approved by
the Company's Board of Directors or a committee thereof.
During the years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, and the
subsequent interim periods preceding Tanner + Co.'s resignation, there were no
disagreements with Tanner + Co. 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 Tanner + Co., would have
caused Tanner + Co. to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement
in connection with its report.
The Company has requested that Tanner + Co. furnish it with a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees
with the foregoing statements. A copy of such letter, dated December 15, 2000,
is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.
The Company is currently in the process of selecting a new independent
accounting firm.
Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
