ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS
The accounting firm of Millward & Co. CPAs represented Universal Heights,
Inc. (the "Company") as its independent accountants during the transition period
from May 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 and each of the two fiscal years ending
April 30, 1997 and April 27, 1996. The Board of Directors of the Company, upon
recommendation of its Audit Committee, has unanimously determined to dismiss
Millward & Co. CPA's and to appoint Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's
independent accountants to audit the Company's financial statements for 1998
effective as of February 8, 1999.
During the Company's transition period from May 1, 1997 to December 31,
1997 and the two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim periods, for
which Millward & Co. CPA's were the Company's independent auditors, there were
no disagreements between the Company and Millward & Co. CPA's on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
Millward & Co. CPA's would have caused it to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports. Millward & Co. CPA's
report dated March 6, 1998 on the financial statements of the Company for the
transition period from May 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 and the two most recent
fiscal years, for which Millward & Co. CPA's was the Company's independent
auditors, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were
not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
Millward & Co. CPA's did not report to the Company any material weakness
in connection with their audits of the Company's financial statements for the
transition period from May 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 and the two most recent
fiscal years ending April 30, 1997 and April 27, 1996, and Millward & Co. CPA's
audit reports concerning the Company's financial statements for the transition
period from May 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 and the two most recent fiscal
years ending April 30, 1997 and April 27, 1996 contained an unqualified opinion.
The Company has authorized Millward & Co. CPA's to respond fully to the
inquiries of Deloitte & Touche LLP concerning all such matters.
During the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period,
there have been no "reportable events" as defined in Regulation S-B Item
304(a)(1)(iv) for Universal Heights, Inc.
The Company requested and received from Millward & Co. CPA's a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agrees with
