Item 4. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On July 15, 2002, the Audit Committee of CDRJ Investments (Lux) S.A. (“CDRJ”), pursuant to the authorization of the Board of Directors of CDRJ and certain of its subsidiaries (together with CDRJ, the “Company”), recommended that the Company appoint Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) as CDRJ’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002 and for each fiscal year thereafter through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. The selection of Ernst & Young will be submitted for approval by CDRJ’s shareholders at a shareholder meeting to be held on July 30, 2002. Clayton, Dubilier & Rice Fund V Limited Partnership (“Fund V”), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, Inc., and the holder of an approximately 92.51% common stock interest in CDRJ, has informed the Company that it intends to vote in favor of the appointment of Ernst & Young.
During each of the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through July 15, 2002, the Company did not consult Ernst & Young regarding 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’s consolidated financial statements, or any other matter or reportable event as set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
