Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
As of March 31, 1998, Smith & Eggleston, P.C. declined to stand for
reelection as the independent accountant chosen to audit the financial
statements of Mid-Atlantic Community BankGroup, Inc. (the "Company"). The
Company's Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Company's Audit
Committee, has appointed Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C., independent certified
public accountants, to perform the audit of the Company's financial statements
for the year ending December 31, 1998, subject to shareholder ratification. The
appointment of appointed Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. will be effective
immediately.
The report of Smith & Eggleston, P.C. on the Company's financial
statements for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1997 did not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Furthermore,
during the Company's two fiscal years ended December 31, 1996 and during the
subsequent period preceding March 31, 1998, there has been no disagreements with
Smith & Eggleston, P.C. on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Smith & Eggleston, P.C.,
would have caused Smith & Eggleston, P.C. to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.
The Company has provided Smith & Eggleston, P.C. with a copy of this
Current Report. A letter from Smith & Eggleston, P.C. to the Commission dated
April 2, 1998 with respect to this matter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.
