- ------- ----------------------------------------------
On December 9, 2003, Ernst & Young LLP resigned as the Company's
independent public accountants.
The Company has not selected a new independent public accountant.
Ernst & Young's report on the financial statements of the Company for
the past fiscal year, ended June 30, 2003 contained a "going concern"
qualification, prior years were unqualified.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years, there were no
disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP 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 Ernst & Young LLP, would
have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit report with respect to
financial statements of the Company.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years, there was no
disagreement or difference of opinion with Ernst & Young LLP regarding any
"reportable event," as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
S-K.
The Company has provided Ernst & Young LLP with a copy of this Report,
and has requested that Ernst & Young LLP furnish the Company with a letter
addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made
by the Company. The Letter of Ernst & Young LLP is attached hereto as Exhibit
16.
The Company filed on December 9, 2003 its current report on Form 10Q
for the three months ended September 30, 2003. That report was not reviewed by
an independent public accountant as required by SAS100.
