Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

         On August 29, 1996, the Registrant engaged Arthur Andersen LLP as the
independent accountant to audit the Registrant's financial statements.

         On that same date, the Registrant dismissed Goldstein Golub Kessler &
Co., P.C. ("GGK"), the independent accountant previously engaged by the
Registrant to audit its financial statements.

         The decision to change accountants was approved by the Registrant's
Board of Directors.

         The report of GGK on the Registrant's consolidated financial statements
for its fiscal years ended July 31, 1994 and July 31, 1995 contained an
explanatory paragraph stating that the Registrant's consolidated financial
statements had been prepared assuming that the Registrant would continue as a
going concern while expressing doubt as to the Registrant's ability to do so
without the infusion of additional capital. Except as stated in the previous
sentence, such report did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles.

         In addition, such report did not give effect to the consummation in
June 1996 of the Registrant's initial public offering of shares of Common Stock
and Redeemable Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock.

         From August 1, 1994 through the date of GGK's dismissal, there have
been no disagreements with GGK on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which
disagreements, if not resolved to GGK's satisfaction, would have caused GGK to
make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its report.

         From August 1, 1994 through the date of GGK's resignation, there have
been no "reportable events" as that term is used in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Item 7.  Exhibits

         Filed as Exhibit A hereto is a copy of the letter delivered by GGK to
the Registrant pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K.

undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
