In connection with the audits of the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004, and subsequent interim period through April 13, 2005, there were no disagreements between the Company and KPMG LLP 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 KPMG LLP, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports. None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurred within the Company's two most recent fiscal years ending December 31, 2004, and the subsequent period through April 13, 2005.
