Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On July 26, 1997, the Registrant dismissed its former independent
accountants Feldman Radin & Co., P.C. ("FRC") and engaged Rosenberg, Rich,
Baker, Berman & Company to audit the Registrant's consolidated financial
statements. The decision to change independent accountants was recommended and
approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors.
FRC served as independent accountants of the Registrant's financial
statements for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995. The reports of FRC on
the Registrant's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. In
connection with its audits for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, and
during the fiscal year 1997 prior to FRC's dismissal, the Registrant had no
disagreements with FRC on matters of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of FRC would have caused them
to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such
years.
The Registrant has requested that FRC furnish it with a letter addressed to
the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the above statement. A copy of
such letter, dated July 31, 1997, is filed as Exhibit "16" to this Form 8-K.
