Item 4.   Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

     The Audit Committee of Competitive Technologies, Inc. ("the
Company") has recommended and its Board of Directors has approved
selection of an accounting firm to replace PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP as the Company's independent accountant.  The Board of
Directors would engage that replacement accounting firm upon
completion of its client acceptance procedures and its acceptance
of the engagement.  In that connection, the Audit Committee had
recommended and the Board of Directors had approved termination
of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the company's independent
accountant upon the replacement accounting firm's acceptance of
its engagement and the execution of an engagement letter.  On
September 2, 2003, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP notified the
Company to confirm that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP had ceased to
serve as its independent accountant.

     The reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on the Company's
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended July
31, 2002 and 2001 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles.

     During the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002 and 2001, and
through September 2, 2003, there was no disagreement with
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on any matter of accounting principles
or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
or procedures, which disagreement, if not resolved to the
satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, would have caused
them to make reference thereto in their report on the
consolidated financial statements for such years.

     During the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002 and 2001, and
through September 2, 2003, there were no reportable events as
defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

     The Company has provided PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP a copy
of the above statements and requested that PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether
or not it agrees with the above statements.  The Company has not
yet received this letter.  When it receives this letter, the
Company will file it as an exhibit to an amended Form 8-K.

     The Company will file another Form 8-K when it has engaged a
replacement independent accountant.
