CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT As recommended by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Registrant, the Board of Directors decided to no longer engage Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen") as I-many's independent auditors. The engagement of Andersen terminated effective on May 15, 2002. Andersen's reports on I-many's financial statements for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During I-many's two most recent fiscal years and through May 15, 2002, there were no disagreements with Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Andersen's satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on I-many's financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of SEC Regulation S-K. I-many provided Andersen with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 is a copy of Andersen's letter, dated May 20, 2002, stating its agreement with such statements. ITEM 7.
