Item 8.01.  Other Events

         As previously reported,  on July 28, 2004,  the Company's  independent
public  accountants,  Ernst & Young LLP  ("E&Y"),  notified the Company that the
auditor-client relationship between the Company and E&Y would terminate upon the
issuance of E&Y's auditor's report on the consolidated  financial  statements of
the Company for the fiscal year ending September 25, 2004. On December 23, 2004,
E&Y issued its audit report and thus its  resignation  became  effective on that
date.

         To date,  the  Company  has not been able to  engage a new  independent
accountant to audit the Company's financial statements. Accordingly, the Company
is unable to have its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 25, 2004 reviewed
by its independent  accountants,  as required by Regulation S-X, and thus is not
filing a Form 10-Q for such fiscal quarter.  In order to provide  investors with
the material information that would otherwise be contained in its Form 10-Q, the
Company is attaching to this Form 8-K its unaudited financial statements for the
fiscal  quarter  ended  December 25, 2004 and its  Management's  Discussion  and
Analysis of its Financial  Condition and Results of Operations for such quarter.
In reviewing this information,  investors should keep in mind that the financial
statements presented in this Form 8-K have been prepared by the Company and have
not been reviewed by an independent accountant.
