Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
     On March 31, 2006, the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of R.H. Donnelley Corporation (the “Company”) dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the R.H. Donnelley 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”).
     PwC’s reports on the Plan’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. During the Plan’s two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and for the period from January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006, there were no disagreements (as that term is defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to PwC’s satisfaction, would have caused PwC to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements for such periods. During the Plan’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and for the period from January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
     The Plan has provided PwC with a copy of the above statements and requested that PwC furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
