ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On May 9, 1997, Ernst & Young LLP ("Ernst & Young") resigned as auditors of
the Company.The report of Ernst & Young on the Company's financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 stated that the Company's
financial statements had been prepared assuming that the Company
would continue as a going concern, but contained an uncertainty
paragraph stating that there was substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern based upon the deficiency in
working capital and recurring operating losses, without any
committed sources of equity capital.
In connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements for
each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, and in the subsequent
interim period, there were no disagreements between Ernst & Young and the
Registrant on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures which,
if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young would have caused Ernst
& Young to make reference to the matter in their report.
Ernst & Young issued a material weakness letter to the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1996 due to internal control deficiencies in the
following areas: recording of accounts payable, assessing the allowance for
doubtful accounts, and ensuring proper sales cut-offs.
The Company has requested Ernst & Young to furnish a letter addressed to the
Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.
A copy of that letter dated May 9, 1997 is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Form 8-K.
