ITEM 4. | CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT | |
(a) | Elliott Davis, LLC ("Accountant"), which was engaged as principal independent accountant for the Registrant on September 26, 2003, has been dismissed from such position effective December 2, 2003. The Accountant has not audited the Registrant's financial statements and has not issued an opinion on the Registrant's financial statements. The decision to change the Accountant was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Registrant. Since the engagement of the Accountant, there have been no disagreements with the Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Accountant's satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports on the financial statements for such years. The disclosures required by Item 304(a) (1) (v) of Regulation S-K are not applicable. | |
(b) | Crisp Hughes Evans LLP, certified public accountants (the "New Accountant") was engaged by the Registrant on December 3,2003 to audit the Registrant's financial statement for the year ending January 3, 2004. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods prior to engaging the New Accountant, the Registrant did not consult the New Accountant regarding any of the matters set forth in Item 304(a) (2) (i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K. | |
