CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

The Audit Committee of the Company has begun the process of selecting a new independent registered public accounting firm. PwC's reports on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and through October 20, 2005, (i) there were 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 PwC to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such years; and (ii) there have been no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. The Company provided PwC with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that PwC furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with such disclosures.
