Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
1. (i) The Registrant's former independent accountant,
Grant Thornton LLP
("Grant Thornton") resigned from that capacity on December 12, 1996.
(ii) Grant Thornton did not issue any report on the
financial statements of the Registrant.
(iii) From the date of engagement of Grant Thornton through
the date of resignation of Grant Thornton, there were no disagreements with
Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, except as follows:
Grant Thornton advised the Registrant that Grant Thornton had
noted a pattern of events that led Grant Thornton to conclude that Grant
Thornton was no longer willing to be associated with the financial statements
prepared by the Registrant. The events which were mentioned to the Registrant by
Grant Thornton included the Registrant's lack of preparation for the audit, the
issuance of a press release by the Registrant on the results of operations for
the year ended July 31, 1996 which required substantial revisions due to
significant accounting adjustments, and the Registrant's lack of understanding
of the significance of certain matters to the preparation of financial
statements and the audit thereof and timeliness of both internal and external
communication of those matters. Grant Thornton also advised the Registrant that
for the period Grant Thornton was engaged to audit (the year ended July 31,
1996) the Registrant did not have the appropriate level of management or board
oversight over the Company's accounting policies, practices or other procedures.
A letter from Grant Thornton is attached as an Exhibit to this
Form 8-K.
