ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

A. Effective on July 28, 2000, the independent accountant who was previously engaged as the principal accountant to audit the Registrant's financial statements, Marcum & Kleigman LLP, was dismissed by the Registrant.

This accountant's report on the financial statements for the past two years neither contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles other than a going concern uncertainty. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of Directors.

During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent Interim period preceding such dismissal, there were no disagreements with the former accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. In addition, there were no "reportable events" as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B)1 through 3 of Regulation S-B that occurred within the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding the former accountant's dismissal.

B. Effective on July 28, 2000, the firm of Kabani & Company, Inc. was engaged to serve as the new principal accountant to audit the Registrant's financial statements. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years, and the subsequent interim period prior to engaging that accountant, neither the Registrant (nor someone on its behalf) consulted the newly engaged accountant regarding any matter.
