Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant --------------------------------------------- On April 9, 1996 the Company received a letter from KPMG Peat Marwick LLP informing the Company of KPMG Peat Marwick's resignation as the Company's auditors, effective that date. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP was previously engaged as the principal accountant to audit the Company's financial statements for the Company's two most recent fiscal years. The Report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the financial statements of the Company for either of the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor was it modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The Company does not believe that there were any disagreements with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, during the past two fiscal years ended September 30, 1995 and the subsequent interim period through April 9, 1996 which, if not resolved to KPMG Peat Marwick LLP's satisfaction, would have caused KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its Reports. The Company has requested KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company, and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A letter from KPMG Peat Marwick LLP is included as Exhibit 16 to this Report, stating its agreement with the statements made by the Company in this Report. ITEM 7.
