ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On March 14, 2000, WAMEX Holdings, Inc., a New York corporation ("WAMEX")
acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of
Conchology, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Conchology"). Simultaneous with the
transaction, WAMEX elected successor issuer status under Rule 12g-3 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On March 23, 2000, Haskell & White LLP, Independent Certified Public
Accountants, the independent accountant previously engaged as the principal
accountant to audit the financial statements of Conchology, were terminated.
The Company has elected to utilize the services of the principal accountant
engaged by WAMEX as the independent accountant for Conchology.
The audit report of Haskell & White LLP on the financial statements of
Conchology as of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, the period from inception, April 9, 1998,
through September 30, 1999, and the period from inception, April 9, 1998,
through December 31, 1998 (the "Audit Period") did not contain any adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to
audit scope or accounting principles. The decision to change accountants was
approved by the board of directors of Conchology on March 23, 2000. During the
Audit Period, there were no disagreements with the former accountant on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the
satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to
the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.
Conchology has provided a copy of this disclosure to its former accountants, and
Conchology requested that the former accountants furnish them with letters
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether they agree
with the statements made by the Registrant, and, if not, stating the respects in
which they do not agree. A copy of the former accountants' responses indicating
agreement is included as exhibits to this report.
