Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a) Chadmoore Wireless Group, Inc. (the "Company") did not re-elect KPMG
LLP ("KPMG") as its independent accountant on February 24, 1999. KPMG's report
on the Company's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1997, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion 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 KPMG's engagement with the Company, there have been no
disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which were not
resolved to KPMG's satisfaction. During KPMG's engagement with the Company,
there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K issued under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended).
(b) As of February 24, 1999, Arthur Andersen LLP has been engaged by
the Company as its principal accountants to audit the Company's financial
statements beginning with the financial statements for the year ended December
31, 1998. The Company has not consulted Arthur Andersen LLP prior to its
engagement regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction, either completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion that might
be rendered on the Company's financial statements or any matter that was either
the subject of a disagreement with KPMG or a reportable event.
