Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Previous independent registered public accounting firm
(1) On July 20, 2007, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") was
dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm of the
registrant, effective immediately. The decision to change independent registered
public accounting firms was recommended and approved by the registrant's
managing general partner, the entity performing the functions of an audit
committee for the registrant.
(2) The reports of PwC on the registrant's financial
statements for the past two fiscal years ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006
did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
(3) During the years ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006
and through July 20, 2007, there have been no disagreements with PwC 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 PwC would have caused them to make reference thereto in their
reports on the registrant's financial statements for such years.
(4) During the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 and through
July 20, 2007, there have been no "reportable events" as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K except for material weaknesses in the
registrant's internal controls over financial reporting. These material
weaknesses are as follows:
o The registrant did not maintain sufficient preventive
internal controls to ensure that it complied with its
contractual agreements. Specifically, the registrant
has determined that the registrant's cash was
invested in below-market interest bearing accounts as
part of a banking arrangement which resulted in
financial benefits to affiliates of the General
Partner. The General Partner subsequently determined
that this arrangement was inconsistent with the terms
of the Partnership Agreement and terminated the
arrangement. The General Partner intends to pay the
interest lost by the registrant to the registrant in
July 2007. In addition, the registrant did not
effectively monitor contracts that limited certain
expenses.
o The registrant did not maintain sufficient internal
controls to ensure the completeness of certain
expense accruals.
o The registrant did not maintain sufficient internal
controls to monitor contingent proceeds from sales of
investments. Additionally, in connection with
certain sales of investments, the registrant did not
obtain written, executed documents as evidence of the
terms of the sale.
o The registrant did not maintain sufficient internal
controls to ensure that the financial statements
appropriately reflected its equity in income(losses)
from investees.
The registrant's managing general partner, the entity performing the
functions of an audit committee for the registrant, has discussed this material
weakness with PricewaterhouseCoopers and have authorized PricewaterhouseCoopers
to respond fully to any inquiries about the registrant's material weaknesses
over financial reporting as may be made by the registrant's successor
independent registered public accounting firm.
(5) The registrant has requested that PwC furnish a letter
addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements.
A copy of such letter, dated July 26, 2007, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K.
(b) New independent registered public accounting firm
On July 25, 2007, the managing member of the registrant engaged The
Reznick Group, P.C. ("Reznick") as the registrant's independent registered
public accounting firm. During the past two fiscal years ended March 31, 2007
and March 31, 2006 and through July 20, 2007, neither the registrant nor anyone
on its behalf consulted with Reznick 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 neither a written report nor oral advice was provided
to the registrant by Reznick that was an important factor considered by the
registrant in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial
reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a
disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related
instructions) or a "reportable event" (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K).
