ITEM 4.           CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

(a)(1)(i)         On September 21, 1999, McGladrey + Pullen LLP, the
                  Registrant's certifying accountant, resigned as the certifying
                  accountant for the Registrant by so notifying the Registrant
                  in writing. A copy of the letter of resignation is attached
                  hereto as Exhibit 1.

(a)(1)(ii)        McGladrey + Pullen LLP issued, for the periods ended December
                  31, 1997 and 1998, an unqualified opinion, without
                  qualification, disclaimer, adverse opinion or any
                  uncertainties.

(a)(1)(iii)       McGladrey + Pullen voluntarily resigned as the certifying
                  accountant for the Registrant. Neither the Registrant, nor its
                  Board of Directors or any committee thereof made a decision to
                  change accountants.

(a)(1)(iv)        There were no disagreements with McGladrey + Pullen LLP during
                  the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and subsequent
                  interim periods on any matter of accounting principles or
                  practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or
                  procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
                  McGladrey + Pullen LLP, would have caused it to make a
                  reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in
                  connection with its report.

(a)(1)(v)         There have been no reportable events within the Registrant's
                  two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim periods.


McGladrey + Pullen LLP have reviewed the preceding statements, and a copy of
                  this response is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.


                                    SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
