ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On January 5, 2006, Juniper Group (A) dismissed Goldstein & Ganz,
CPA's, P.C. ("G&G") as its independent accountant responsible for auditing its
financial statements and (B) retained Morgenstern & Company, CPA's, P.C.
("Morgenstern") as its new independent accountants.
G&G's report on the financial statements of Juniper Group for the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles, except that their reports for each of the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 included an explanatory paragraph stating that
Juniper Group had suffered recurring losses from operations, which raised
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The decision to retain Morgenstern was unanimously approved by Juniper
Group's board of directors.
From the date of the last audited financial statements through the date
of G&G's dismissal, Juniper Group had no disagreements, whether or not resolved,
with G&G on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to
G&G's satisfaction, would have caused G&G to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. There were no events
otherwise reportable under Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.
During its two most recent fiscal years, Juniper Group did not consult
Morgenstern regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific
completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might
be rendered on Juniper Group's financial statements.
Juniper Group provided G&G with a copy of this report. Attached as
Exhibit 16.1 is a copy of a letter from G&G agreeing with the statements made in
this report.
