ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On July 2, 1996, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the
Registrant dismissed KPMG Peat Marwick LLP ("Peat Marwick") as independent
accountants to the Registrant and appointed Cooper, Selvin & Strassberg LLP as
the new independent accountants to the Registrant. Peat Marwick's accountant's
report on the financial statements of the Registrant for the fiscal year ended

accountants) did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and
was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles. There were no other reportable events or disagreements with Peat
Marwick to report in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K, ss. 229.304(a).
