ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On March 19, 1999, Mount Vintage Plantation Golf Club, LLC, a South
Carolina limited liability company (the "Company"), dismissed Serotta Maddocks
Evans & Co., CPAs ("SME") as its independent accountant engaged as the principal
accountant to audit the Company's financial statements and retained Elliott,
Davis & Company, LLP ("Elliott, Davis") in its place. SME recommended that the
Company change its independent accountants and recommended Elliott, Davis in
particular because SME does not generally provide services to SEC reporting
companies. Both the Company and SME believe that the Company will be better
served by an independent accountant with more experience in providing services
to SEC reporting companies. The Company believes that Elliott, Davis has
substantial experience in providing services to SEC reporting companies and will
be able to provide fully adequate services to the Company. The decision to
change the Company's independent accountants was made by the Company's manager,
MV Development Company, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company.
No report of SME on any financial statements of the Company contained an
adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principals. The Company and SME have had
no disagreements on any matter of accounting principals or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if
not resolved to the satisfaction of SME, would have caused SME to make reference
to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with any report by SME.
Prior to retaining Elliott, Davis as its principal independent
accountant, the Company consulted Elliott, Davis in connection with the
preparation of the Company's first Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB filed with
the Commission (File No. 333-15029) for the Company's third quarter of the 1998
fiscal year (the "10-QSB"). The Company has also consulted Elliott, Davis in
connection with the preparation of its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the 1998
fiscal year (the "10-KSB"). The Company expects that Elliott, Davis will provide
a report on the financial statements of the Company contained in the 10-KSB.
Elliott, Davis provided the Company and SME with general advice on the
organization and preparation of the financial disclosure contained in the 10-QSB
and the 10-KSB. None of these consultations resulted from any disagreement
between the Company and SME.
