ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
(A) PREVIOUS INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT
(a) On March 1, 2000, Euro Trade & Forfaiting, Inc. (the
"Company") dismissed Marc Lumer & Company ("MLC") as its independent
accountant. The decision to dismiss MLC was approved by the Company's
Board of Directors.
(b) MLC's reports on the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the two most recent fiscal years did not contain an adverse
opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
(c) During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim periods preceding MLC's dismissal, the Company had no
disagreements with MLC on matters of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MLC, would have
caused it to make reference to such disagreements in its reports on the
Company's financial statements for such years and interim periods.
(d) During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim periods preceding MLC's dismissal, there have been no
reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
(e) The Company has requested that MLC furnish it with a letter
addressed to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
stating whether or not it agrees with the statements contained in this
Item 4(A). Upon receipt of such letter, the Company intends to file an
amended Form 8-K.
(B) NEW INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT
The Company has engaged Peterson Sullivan P.L.L.C. ("Peterson
Sullivan") as its new independent accountant as of March 1, 2000. The
decision to engage Peterson Sullivan was approved by the Company's Board
of Directors. During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim periods preceding MLC's dismissal, the Company did not
consult Peterson Sullivan regarding any of the matters or events set forth
in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
On February 28, 2000, the Company changed its registrar and transfer
agent from Signature Stock Transfer, Inc. of 14675 Midway Road, Suite 221,
Addison, Texas, U.S.A. to CIBC Mellon Trust Company of 2001 University
Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3A 2A6.
