ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
(a) On January 11, 1999 Information Analysis Incorporated (the "Company")
dismissed Ernst & Young, LLP ("Ernst & Young") as its independent accountant.
The report of Ernst & Young for fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 (the sole
fiscal year for which Ernst & Young was engaged) did not contain an adverse
opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was such report qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997 and for all subsequent interim periods thereafter prior
to the dismissal of Ernst & Young, there were no disagreements on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction
of Ernst & Young, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter
of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports. The Company's
determination to change accountants was approved by its audit committee. The
Company has provided to Ernst & Young, prior to the filing with the Commission
of this Form 8-K, a copy of the disclosures made in this Item 4(a).
(b) Effective January 11, 1999, the Company engaged Rubino & McGeehin,
Chtd. ("Rubino & McGeehin") as its new independent accountant to audit the
Company's financial statements. During the period that Ernst & Young served as
the Company's independent accountant, including all interim periods within 1998,
the Company (or someone on its behalf) never consulted Rubinio & McGeehin
regarding any matter. Rubino & McGeehin did serve as the Company's independent
accountant prior to the Company's engagement of Ernst & Young.
