Item 4.     Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

            On December 23, 1999, Dworken, Hillman, LaMorte & Sterczala, P.C.
was retained by the Registrant as its independent accountants.

            The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of
Directors of the Registrant. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal
years and the interim period preceding the appointment neither the registrant
(nor anyone on its behalf) consulted with the newly engaged accountant regarding
either:

            (i) 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
      neither a written report was provided to the registrant nor oral advise
      was provided that the new accountant concluded was an important factor
      considered by the registrant in reaching a decision as to the accounting,
      auditing or financial reporting issue; or

            (ii) Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as
      defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) and the related instructions to the item 4
      of Form 8-K).

            Dworken, Hillman, LaMorte & Sterczala, P.C. has advised the
registrant that it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant in this
report on Form 8-K.
