Item #4 of the form 8-K dated November 14, 1997 for Adage, Inc. (the "Company")

Item #4 - Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

Effective November 7, 1997, Adage, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed MacDade Abbott
LLP ("MacDade") as its certifying accountants.

MacDade's reports on the Company's financial statements for the two most recent
fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion. Nor were the
opinions qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.

The decision to change certifying accountants was approved by the Audit
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.

During the two most recent fiscal years and all subsequent interim periods,
there were no disagreements between the Company and MacDade on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
MacDade, would have caused MacDade to make reference to the subject matters of
disagreement in connection with MacDade's report.

None of the reportable events described in Item 304 (a) (1) (v) of Regulation
S-K occurred with respect to the Company within the two most recent fiscal years
and any subsequent interim period to the date hereof.

Effective November 13, 1997, the Company engaged Ernst & Young LLP as its
certifying accountants. During the two most recent fiscal years and all
subsequent interim periods preceding the date hereof, the Company has not
consulted Ernst & Young LLP regarding any matters or events as set forth in Item
304 (a) (2) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has requested MacDade to furnish it with a letter addressed to the
Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether MacDade agrees with the
statements made by the Company in this Item 4. A copy of such letter is filed as
exhibit A to this form 8-K/A.

                                   SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
