Item 4. Changes in Company's Certifying Accountant.
On May 22, 2002, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of
SearchHound.com, Inc. (the "Company") was notified by Clevenger &
Haywood, CPA, PC, the Company's independent auditor, that it would
decline to stand for reelection as the Company's independent auditor
for the year ending December 31, 2002. The Company is currently
interviewing other accounting firms to serve as its independent
auditor, but has not engaged another firm at this time.
On May 24, 2002, the Board of Directors of SearchHound.com, upon
the recommendation of the Company's Audit Committee, approved a
resolution to engage Pickett, Chaney & McMullen, LLP as the Company's
independent auditor.
The reports of Clevenger & Haywood CPA, PC ("Clevenger &
Haywood")on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for
the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from inception
(April 11, 2000) to December 31, 2000 did not contain any adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or
modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. Clevenger &
Haywood's audit report on the consolidated financial statements of the
Company for the year ended December 31, 2001 and and for the period
from inception (April 11, 2000) to December 31, 2000 included an
explanatory paragraph concerning the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.
During the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from
inception (April 11, 2000) to December 31, 2000, and any subsequent
interim period preceding May 22, 2002, there were no disagreements
between the Company and Clevenger & Haywood on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure, which would have caused Clevenger &
Haywood, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Clevenger & Haywood,
to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in
connection with its reports.
During the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from
inception (April 11, 2000) to December 31, 2000, and any subsequent
interim period preceding May 22, 2002, the Company did not consult
with Pickett, Chaney & McMullen, LLP with regard to any matter
concerning the application of accounting principles to any specific
transactions, either completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered with respect to the Company's financial
statements, or any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or a
reportable event.
The Company has provided Clevenger & Haywood with a copy of this
Form 8-K and requested that Clevenger & Haywood furnish the Company
with a letter, addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission,
stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements and, if
not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such
letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,

undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
