ITEM 4 - CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

(a)      1.       On April 5, 1999, Millward & Co. CPAs indicated that at the
                  present time it was no longer performing audits of public
                  companies and therefore terminated its audit relationship with
                  Solitron Devices, Inc. (the "Company"); and on April 7, 1999,
                  the Company engaged Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP (GGK) as the
                  company's new independent accountants. During the last two
                  fiscal years and each subsequent interim period, the Company
                  has not consulted with GGK regarding the application of
                  accounting principles to a specified transaction either
                  completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might
                  be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or on any
                  matter that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable
                  event.

         2.       Millward & Co.'s report on the financial statements for the
                  past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or
                  disclaimer of opinion and was not a qualified or modified as
                  to audit scope or accounting principles; however, each of
                  these reports contained an explanatory paragraph raising
                  substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a
                  going concern due to extensive debt obligations.

         3.       The audit committee of the Board of Directors approved the
                  decision to change accountants.

         4.       During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and any
                  subsequent interim period preceding such termination, there
                  were no disagreements with the former accountant on any matter
                  of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
                  disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
                  disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of the
                  former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to
                  the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in its report.
