ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On August 19, 1996, Hein + Associates LLP resigned as the independent
auditors of the Registrant. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
established at its meeting held on August 15, 1996 has instituted a search for
new auditors for the Registrant and intends to recommend new independent
auditors to the Board of Directors at its meeting to be held on or about
September 18, 1996.
The independent auditor's report for the fiscal years ending December
31, 1994 and 1995 contain no adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion, or
qualifications as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During
the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim periods
there were no disagreements between the Registrant and Hein + Associates LLP on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
The Registrant believes that the change of independent auditors will
ultimately result in lower expenditures for its auditing and accounting needs.
