ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

The Registrant's principal independent accountants, Saslow Lufkin & Buggy, LLP ("SLB"), have resigned from such position effective October 8, 2003.

The reports of SLB on the financial statements for the Registrant for the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

In connection with the audits of the Registrant's financial statements for each of the past two fiscal years and in the subsequent interim periods, there were no disagreements between the Registrant and SLB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of SLB, would have caused SLB to make reference to the matter in connection with its report. There were no "reportable events" as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

As of October 10, 2003, Mahoney Sabol & Company, LLP ("MSC") was engaged as the Registrant's new independent public accountants. The appointment of MSC was recommended and approved by the Company's Audit Committee. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and during the subsequent interim periods, the Registrant did not consult MSC regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Registrant has provided SLB with a copy of this disclosure and has requested that SLB furnish it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") stating whether SLB agrees with the statements made above by the Registrant. A copy of the letter from SLB dated October 8, 2003 is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
