Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On October 6, 1997, Continental American Transportation, Inc.
(the "Company") advised Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company
("Rosenberg") that the Company was discontinuing Rosenberg's
services as the Company's independent auditor. This decision
was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company by
written consent.
Rosenberg's reports on the financial statements of the Company
for the past three (3) fiscal years did not contain any
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
To the best knowledge of the Company's current Board of
Directors, there were no disagreements between the Company and
Rosenberg during their service and subsequent interim periods
preceding such dismissal on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
audit scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not
resolved to the satisfaction of Rosenberg, would have caused
it to make a reference to the subject matter of the
disagreement(s) in connection with its reports.
On October 6, 1997 Continental American Transportation, Inc.
(the "Company") engaged Grant Thornton LLP to serve as the
Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1997. The decision to engage Grant Thornton was
approved by the Board of Directors by written consent on
October 6, 1997.
During the two year period ended June 30, 1997 and through the
date of this report, the Company did not consult Grant
Thornton LLP regarding 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.
Due to this recent change in auditors, as well as the due
diligence required of both Company management and Grant
Thornton LLP in connection with its preparation, the Company
anticipates a delay in filing its Form 10-KSB for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1997, until approximately November 30,
1997.
