Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountants.
On July 26, 2001, the Audit Committee recommended and the Board of
Directors of Advanced Remote Communication Solutions, Inc. ("ARCOMS"), approved
the engagement of KPMG LLP as the Company's independent accountants replacing
Deloitte and Touche LLP. The Company dismissed Deloitte and Touche LLP on the
same day.
In connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements for
the previous years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 and in the subsequent
interim period ending March 31, 2001, there were no disagreements with Deloitte
and Touche LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures.
The accountant's reports of Deloitte and Touche LLP on the financial
statements of the Company did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, nor were they qualified to audit scope, or accounting principles;
however, the accountant's report for the year ended December 31, 2000 included
an explanatory paragraph as to the uncertainty that ARCOMS would continue as a
going concern.
