Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
At a meeting held on February 14, 2000, the Board of Directors of the
Company approved the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP as its independent auditors
for the fiscal year ending 2000 to replace the firm of M.C. Hunter & Associates
("M.C. Hunter") as its independent auditors, who were dismissed as auditors of
the Company effective February 14, 2000.
The reports of M.C. Hunter on the Company's financial statements for the
past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or
accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements for
each of the two fiscal years ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998,
and in the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements with M.C.
Hunter on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the
satisfaction of M.C. Hunter would have caused M.C. Hunter to make reference to
the matter in their report.
The Company has provided M.C. Hunter with a copy of this Form 8-K and has
requested M.C. Hunter to furnish the Company a letter addressed to the
Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above
statements and, if not, to state the respects in which M.C. Hunter does not
agree with such statements. M.C. Hunter's response letter, dated February 15,
2000 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
