ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On May 6, 1997, Lancit Media Entertainment, Ltd. (the "Registrant")
dismissed the accounting firm of Feldman Radin & Co., P.C. ("F&R"). On May 7,
1997, the Registrant engaged the accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y") to
be the Registrant's auditors for the current fiscal year, which ends June 30,
1997. The Registrant's Board of Directors approved the decision to change
accountants upon the recommendation of the Registrant's Audit Committee. Prior
to engaging E&Y, the Registrant has not consulted with E&Y with respect to any
accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.
During the period of engagement of F&R there have been no
"disagreements" between the Registrant and F&R on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure or any "reportable events", as those terms are defined in Item 304 of
Regulation S-K.
F&R's reports on the financial statements for each of the past two
years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
