Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On December 9, 1999, the Registrant engaged the independent accounting firm
of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PricewaterhouseCoopers") as the Registrant's
principal accountants to audit the Registrant's financial statements on an
ongoing basis. At the same time, the Registrant terminated the engagement of
M.R. Weiser & Co. LLP ("Weiser"), previously the Registrant's independent public
accountants. This change in independent accountants was approved by the Audit
Committee of the Registrant's Board of Directors.
Weiser's report on the Registrant's financial statements during the most
recent fiscal year did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion and was not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles. During the Registrant's most recent fiscal year and all subsequent
interim periods preceding the termination of the engagement of Weiser, there
were no disagreements with Weiser on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
The Registrant has provided Weiser with a copy of the disclosures it is
making herein and has requested Weiser to furnish it with a letter addressed to
the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the
statements made by the Registrant herein and, if not, stating the respects in
which it does not agree. A copy of Weiser's letter responsive to such request is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
Prior to the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers as its principal
independent public accountants, the Registrant did not consult with
PricewaterhouseCoopers or receive any written or oral advice from
PricewaterhouseCoopers regarding any matter, including without limitation the
application of accounting principles to any transaction, the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements or any
matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable event.
