ITEM 2. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
1. On November 1, 2000, the Company was notified that Freed Maxick Sachs
& Murphy, PC had merged with McGladrey & Pullen, LLP and that Freed
Maxick Sachs & Murphy, PC would no longer be the auditor for the
Registrant. McGladrey & Pullen, LLP was appointed as the Registrant's
new auditor.
2. The auditor's reports from Freed Maxick Sachs & Murphy, PC for the
Registrant's past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion
or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to
audit scope, or accounting principles. However, the opinion was
modified due to the risk of uncertainty relating to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
3. The decision to change accountants resulted from the merger and was
not recommended or approved by the board of directors or the audit
committee of the board of directors.
4. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim period preceding the change, there have been no
disagreements with Freed Maxick Sachs & Murphy, PC on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure.
5. The Registrant has requested Freed Maxick Sachs & Murphy, PC to
furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees
with the statements made in this Item. Such letter is included in an
exhibit to this Form 8-K.
