ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
a. Effective March 23, 2000, UniComp, Inc. (the "Company") replaced its
independent auditors, Arthur Andersen L.L.P. ("Arthur Andersen") with
BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO Seidman"). Arthur Andersen's report on UniComp's
financial statements for the fiscal years ended February 28, 1998 and
1999, contained no adverse opinions or a disclaimer of opinions, and
was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or
accounting principles. The decision to change accountants was approved
by the Company's Board of Directors.
During the fiscal years ended February 28, 1998 and 1999, there were no
disagreements between the Company and Arthur Andersen on any matters of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to
the satisfaction of Arthur Andersen, would have caused it to make a
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection
with its reports.
None of the "reportable events" described in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K occurred with respect to the Company during the fiscal
years ended February 28, 1998 and 1999.
The Company has requested Arthur Andersen furnish it with a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it
agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter dated, March
27, 2000, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
b. Effective March 23, 2000, the Company engaged BDO Seidman as its
independent auditor for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000. During
the fiscal years ended February 28, 1998 and 1999 and the subsequent
interim period to the date hereof, the Company did not consult BDO
Seidman regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304
(a)(2)(I) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
