Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
S.W. Hatfield, Certified Public Accountant, of Dallas, Texas audited the
Registrant's financial statements at and for the year ended December 31, 1999,
and the opinion of S.W. Hatfield was not qualified in any manner. For certain
business reasons, the Board of Directors of the Registrant has chosen not to
engage S.W. Hatfield to audit the Registrant's financial statements at and for
the year ended December 31, 2000. The auditor-client relationship between the
Registrant and S.W. Hatfield has ceased.
During the Registrant's relationship with S.W. Hatfield, there were no
disagreements between the Registrant and S.W. Hatfield on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure. In addition, there were no disagreements between the
Registrant and S.W. Hatfield on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures for
the December 31, 1999 financial statements. Further, there have been no
disagreements between the Registrant and the S.W. Hatfield on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope and procedures for December 31, 1999 to the present.
Following approval of its Board of Directors, the Registrant engaged John
S. Osborn, P.C., Certified Public Accountants, of Plano, Texas, to audit its
financial statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2000. Neither the
Registrant nor anyone on its behalf at any time has consulted the newly engaged
accountant regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a
specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or (ii) the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements; or
(iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (there being
none) or a reportable event (there being none).
The Registrant has provided S.W. Hatfield with a copy of this Report on
Form 8-K simultaneously with the filing hereof with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, accompanied by a request that S.W. Hatfield furnish the Registrant
with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating
whether it agrees with the foregoing statements made by the Registrant. S.W.
Hatfield's letter will be filed by the Registrant in an amendment to this Form
8-K.
Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
