ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNT
On February 8, 1999, the Registrant dismissed their independent
auditors, BDO Seidman LLP for the audit of fiscal year 1999.
The decision to dismiss BDO Seidman LLP as the Registrant's
independent auditors was approved by the Audit Committee of the
Registrant's Board of Directors. The reports of BDO Seidman LLP
on the Registrant's financial statements for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997 did not contain an
adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or a qualification
or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles. In connection with its audits for the Registrant's
two most recent fiscal years and through February 8, 1999 there
were no disagreements with BDO Seidman LLP on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
The Registrant engaged Grant Thornton LLP as its independent
accountant as of February 10, 1999. During the Registrant's two
most recent fiscal years, and through February 10, 1999, the
Registrant did not consult with Grant Thornton LLP as to either
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 Registrant's financial
statements and the Registrant did not consult with Grant
Thornton LLP as to any matter that was either the subject of a
disagreement or reportable event.
