Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountants
(a) Previous independent accountants
(i) On March 4, 1999, Safe Technologies International, Inc. (the
"Company") decided that it was in its best interest to retain an
accounting firm that was based in South Florida. On March 4, 1999,
the Company dismissed Scott & Guilfoyle, P.A., its independent
accountants, who are based in Lake Success, New York. The
Company's decision to change accountants was based solely on
the decision to have a local accounting firm and was not at all
related to the quality of Scott & Guilfoyle's work or any
disagreements with such firm.
(ii) The reports of Scott & Guilfoyle on the financial statements for
the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion.
(iii) The Company's Board of Directors participated in and approved
the decision to change independent accountants at a Board meeting
held on March 3, 1999.
(iv) In connection with its audits for the two most recent fiscal
years ending November 30 1997 and November 30 1998 and
through March 4, 1999, there have been no disagreements with
Scott & Guilfoyle 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 Scott & Guilfoyle would have caused them to
make reference thereto in their report on the financial statement
for such years.
(v) The Company has requested that Scott & Guilfoyle furnish it
with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it
agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter dated
March 5, 1999 is filed as Exhibit 1 to the Form 8-K.
(b) New independent accountants
(i) The Company engaged Sewell and Company, P.A. ("Sewell") as its
new independent accountants as of March 4, 1999. Sewell has
offices in Hollywood, Florida and Pembroke Pines, Florida.
Prior to the engagement, the Company did not consult with Sewell
about the application of accounting principles to a specific
completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial
statements or ask Sewell to provide any written or oral advice
that was an important factor that the Company considered in
reaching decisions as to the accounting, auditing or financial
reporting issues.
