<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT&#146;S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(a)&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;15, 2005, Taser International, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) dismissed Deloitte &#038; Touche
LLP (&#147;D&#038;T&#148;) as the Company&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss
D&#038;T was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The reports of D&#038;T on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2004
and 2003 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified
as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, but did
include an explanatory paragraph for the effects of a restatement of
the financial statements for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the
years ended December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003 and through September&nbsp;15, 2005, there have been no
disagreements with D&#038;T 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 D&#038;T, would have caused D&#038;T to make reference thereto in its reports on the
financial statements of the Company for such years.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the
years ended December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003 and through September&nbsp;15, 2005, there have been no
reportable events (as defined in Item&nbsp;304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation&nbsp;S-K), except as described below.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As
previously reported in the Company's Form 10-KSB/A filed on May 23,
2005, the
Company concluded that errors that led to the restatement of its
financial statements for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004
resulted from an inadequate control over the accounting for its stock
option programs. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm
communicated to us that, under standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board, this control deficiency
constituted a &#147;material weakness&#148; in our internal control
over financial reporting.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has furnished a copy of the above disclosures to D&#038;T and has requested that D&#038;T furnish
the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or
not it agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of such letter is attached as Exhibit&nbsp;16.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K.
</div>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(b)&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;15, 2005, the Company engaged Grant Thornton LLP as its new independent
registered public accounting firm to audit the Company&#146;s financial statements for the year ending
December&nbsp;31, 2005 and to review the financial statements to be included in the Company&#146;s quarterly
report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Prior to the engagement of Grant Thornton LLP, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the
Company consulted with Grant Thornton LLP during the Company&#146;s two most recent fiscal years and
through September&nbsp;15, 2005, in any manner regarding either: (A)&nbsp;the application of accounting
principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered on the Company&#146;s financial statements; or (B)&nbsp;any matter that was the
subject of either a disagreement or a reportable event (as defined in Item&nbsp;304(a)(1)(iv) and (v),
respectively, of Regulation&nbsp;S-K).
