ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On March 12, 1999, by unanimous written consent, the Board of Directors
of the Registrant engaged the accounting firm of Hau & Associates, S.C. as
independent accountants for the Registrant. Hau & Associates, S.C.
replaced Smrecek & Co., S.C., which resigned effective March 11, 1999.
The reports of Smrecek & Co., S.C. on the Registrant's financial
statements for the most recent two fiscal years for which that firm audited such
financial statements, the most recent of which is the fiscal year ended February
28, 1998, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the interim period
subsequent to February 28, 1998, there have been no disagreements with Smrecek &
Co., S.C. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
Smrecek & Co., S.C. has furnished the Registrant with a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agrees with
all of the above statements insofar as they relate to such former accountants. A
copy of such letter is included as Exhibit 16 to this Report.
