Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On June 4, 2013, we dismissed our independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”), effective immediately. The dismissal was approved by the audit committee.

Grant Thornton’s reports on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. In connection with the audits of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and through June 4, 2013, there were (1) no disagreements with Grant Thornton 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 Grant Thornton would have caused Grant Thornton to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports; and (2) no “reportable events” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K other than there was a material weakness in the internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the Form 10-Q for our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, which has been remediated.

We have provided Grant Thornton with a copy of this Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and requested that Grant Thornton furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter, dated June 4, 2013, indicating that Grant Thornton is in agreement with these disclosures, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

On June 4, 2013, we engaged KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accountant effective immediately. The engagement was approved by the audit committee. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and through June 4, 2013, we did not consult with KPMG regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, (3) written or oral advice provided that would be an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (4) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement between our company and our predecessor auditor as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
