CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT. As previously reported in the Form 8-K filed by TheStreet.com, Inc. ("TheStreet.com" or the "Company") on March 12, 2002, Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen") informed TheStreet.com on March 5, 2002 that it was resigning its engagement as the Company's public accountants, effective upon completion of the 2001 audit and filing of the related Annual Report on Form 10-K. Andersen's reports on TheStreet.com's consolidated financial statements for the past two years, and its report on TheStreet.com's consolidated financial statements for 2001, 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 TheStreet.com's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of the filing of the 2001 Form 10-K, 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 Andersen to make reference to the subject matter in connection with its report on TheStreet.com's consolidated financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. TheStreet.com has provided Andersen with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 is a copy of Andersen's letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated April 9, 2002, stating its agreement with such statements. ITEM 7.
