Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant. The Registrant announced that effective upon the completion of the audit of its 1997 financial statements, the Registrant will replace Arthur Andersen, LLP ("Andersen"), its current independent auditors, with Radics & Co., LLP, who will conduct the audit of the Company's financial statements commencing with the 1998 fiscal year. The decision to change auditors was recommended by the Audit Committee and was approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 and up to the date of this report, there have been 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 the satisfaction of Andersen, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports. The independent auditor's report on the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 expressed an unqualified opinion. In addition, the Registrant has been informed that the audit opinion for the 1997 fiscal year, to be issued by Andersen, will not contain any qualifications. Item 7. Exhibits.
