ITEM 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a) Nord Pacific Limited (the "Company") has terminated its relationship with KPMG ("KPMG"), independent certified public accountants.
Due to financial difficulties, the Company has not had the funds to engage auditors and has not filed any financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission since September 2000.
The reports of KPMG for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, contained no adverse opinions, disclaimers of opinion or qualified or modified opinions as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principals.
During the two-year period ended December 31, 1999, and the interim period from that date to September 30, 2000, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principals or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused it to make reference in connection with its report to the subject matter of the disagreement.

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