Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of CytRx Corporation (the
"Registrant") engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") as its new independent
accountants as of January 30, 2004. PwC will audit the Company's financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
During the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and the

anyone on its behalf has consulted with PwC regarding either (i) 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
Registrant's financial statements, and either a written report was provided to
the Registrant or oral advice was provided that PwC concluded was an important
factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to the accounting,
auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the
subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of
Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereof, or a reportable event, as
that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
