ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
(a) The Board of Directors of Sono-Tek Corporation (the "Company") voted to
dismiss Anchin, Block & Anchin LLP (the "Former Accountants") as the
Company's independent accountants. On October 30, 1996 the Company
formally notified the former accountants of such dismissal.
(b) There were no disagreements between the Company and the former
accountants during the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim period preceding such dismissal on any matter of
accounting principals or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
the former accountants, would have caused the former accountants to make
reference to the matter in their reports. Additionally, during the
aforesaid periods the Company was not advised by the former accountants
of any "reportable events" as defined in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v) of
regulation S-K.
(c) The former accountants' opinion for the fiscal year ended February 28,
1995 was qualified with respect to the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.
(d) As required by Item 304 of Regulation 8-K, the former accountants have
furnished to the Company a letter addressed to the SEC stating that they
agree with the statements made by the Company herein. A copy of this
letter is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.
