Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant 1 Signatures 2 Exhibit A - Letter from former accountant ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT. On December 2, 1999, the Registrant engaged Cayer Prescott Clune & Chatellier, LLP as its new independent auditors for the Registrant's fiscal year ending March 31, 1999 and terminated its auditor relationship with BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO"). BDO served as the independent auditors for the Registrant for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998. In its report on the financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998, BDO included an explanatory paragraph regarding the uncertainty as to the Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern because of recurring losses from operations and the non-payment of debt obligations as they became due. The decision to change independent auditors was approved by the Board of Directors, because of the Registrant's deteriorating financial condition and its inability to pay BDO for the work it had performed. During fiscal 1998 and any subsequent interim periods, there were no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. In addition, BDO did not advise the Registrant of any events set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B during fiscal 1998 and any subsequent interim periods. 1 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.
