Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a)   (1)

(i)  On November 16, 1999, the Company notified Deloitte & Touche LLP (Deloitte)
     that it was terminating Deloitte as the Company's principal independent
     certifying accountant.

(ii) Neither of Deloitte's reports on the Company's financial statements for the
     past two fiscal years contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of
     opinion, nor was either of such reports qualified as to uncertainty, audit
     scope, or accounting principles.

(iii) The decision to change accountants was (A) recommended by the Company's
     audit committee and (B) approved by the full Board of Directors.

(iv) During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent
     interim period preceding Deloitte's dismissal, there were no disagreements
     between the Company and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or
     practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
     which disagreement(s), if not resolved to Deloitte's satisfaction, would
     have caused Deloitte to make a reference to the subject matter of the
     disagreement(s) in connection with its reports.

(2) The Company engaged Aronson, Fetridge & Weigle of Rockville, Maryland on
November 18, 1999 to be its principal independent certifying accountant.
