ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
By letter dated December 6, 1996, the Company terminated Singer Lewak
Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP as independent certified accountants for the Company.
The Company's former independent certified accountants' annual report
covering the two (2) fiscal years ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 contained a
qualification based on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Except for this qualification, the Company's former independent certified
accountants' report did not include an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion,
and was not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of the two (2) most recent fiscal years and during
any subsequent interim periods preceding such termination, there has not
developed any disagreement between such former independent certified accountants
and management of the Company or other reportable events which have not been
resolved to the Company's former independent certified accountants'
satisfaction. Singer Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP had been the Company's
independent certified accountants since approximately December 27, 1994.
