Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a)      Previous Independent Auditors:

         (i)      On June 25, 1999, the Registrant and PricewaterhouseCoopers
                  LLP ("PWC") mutually agreed that PWC would be replaced as the
                  independent auditors for the Registrant effective upon the
                  issuance of PWC's letter on the Registrant's interim financial
                  statements to be included in the Registrant's Quarterly Report
                  on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1999.

         (ii)     PWC's reports on the financial statements of the Registrant
                  for the two fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 contain no
                  adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not
                  qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
                  accounting principles.

         (iii)    The Registrants's Board of Directors and Audit Committee
                  approved the change in accountants.

         (iv)     For the two most recent fiscal years ended September 30, 1998,
                  and for each subsequent interim period preceding such mutual
                  agreement, there has been no disagreement between the
                  Registrant and PWC on any matter of accounting principles or
                  practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or
                  procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the
                  satisfaction of PWC would have caused PWC to make a reference
                  to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with
                  its reports.

         (v)      For the two most recent fiscal years ended September 30, 1998,
                  and for each subsequent interim period preceding such mutual
                  agreement, the Registrant has not been advised of any matters
                  described in Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(v).

(b)      New Independent Auditors:

         (i)      On June 25, 1999, the Registrant engaged Arthur Andersen LLP
                  ("Andersen") as its new independent accountants effective with
                  respect to the Company's fiscal year ending September 30,
                  1999.

         (ii)     Prior to June 25, 1999, the Registrant did not consult with
                  Andersen regarding (a) the application of accounting
                  principles to a specified transaction, or (b) the type of
                  audit opinion that might be rendered by Andersen on the
                  Registrant's financial statements, or (c) any other matter
                  that, had such matter existed, would have been described in
                  response to Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v).
