Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On February 18, 2005, Accelr8 Technology Corporation (the "Company")
dismissed Anton Collins Mitchell ("ACM"), as the Company's independent public
accountants. The Company's audit committee recommended the dismissal of ACM.
The reports by ACM on the Company's financial statements during the
preceding two years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and
were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
During the preceding two fiscal years and through February 18, 2004, there
no disagreements between the Company and ACM on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or audit scope or
procedure, which, if not resolved to ACM's satisfaction, would have caused ACM
to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with
ACM's reports on the Company's financial statements.
During the preceding two fiscal years and through February 18, 2005, there
were no reportable events required to be disclosed pursuant to Item
304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.
Pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-B, on February 22, 2005, ACM
furnished the Company a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange
Commission stating it agrees with the statements made by the Company in response
to Item 304(a). A copy of the ACM letter is included as Exhibit 16.1.
On February 18, 2005, the Company's audit committee named Comiskey &
Company, P.C. ("Comiskey") as its new independent accountants. During the
preceding two fiscal years and through February 18, 2005, the Company has not
consulted with Comiskey regarding the matters described in, and required to be
disclosed pursuant to Item 304(a)(2)(i) or Item 304(a)(2)(ii) of Regulation S-B.
