ITEM 4. CHANGE IN CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
The certifying accountant for CFI Mortgage Inc.'s financial statements for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1997 was Grant Thornton LLP ("Grant").
Grant advised CFI Mortgage Inc. on October 2, 1998, (via letter dated October 1,
1998) that the client-auditor relationship had ceased between Grant and CFI
Mortgage Inc. A copy of the Letter of Resignation from Grant to CFI Mortgage
Inc. is attached as Exhibit 16.1.
During the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, and the period
through October 1, 1998, there have been no disagreements between Grant and CFI
Mortgage on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures which disagreement, if not
resolved to Grant's satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in
connection with its reports to the subject matter of disagreement. In addition,
Grant's report on CFI's financial statements for said fiscal period contained no
adverse opinion or disclaimers of opinion, nor was such report qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The exhibits listed in the accompanying index to exhibits are filed as part of
this report.
