The Exhibit Index is on page 5. Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant. - ----------------------------------------------------- On April 5, 1994, the Company's Board of Directors, acting on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, approved the retention of Deloitte & Touche to audit the Company's financial statements at November 30, 1994 and for the year ending on that date. KPMG Peat Marwick audited the Company's financial statements for the year ended November 30, 1993 and for a number of years before that. The decision to replace KPMG Peat Marwick with Deloitte & Touch was based solely on cost considerations. Early in fiscal 1994, the Company invited KPMG Peat Marwick and three other firms it considered to be qualified to submit proposals for the audit of the Company's financial statements for the five fiscal years ending November 30, 1994 through 1998. Upon review of the proposals, the Company selected Deloitte & Touche, because it submitted the lowest cost proposal. Neither KPMG Peat Marwick's report on the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary for the fiscal year ended November 30, 1993, nor its report on the financial statements for the year ended November 30, 1992, contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of an opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Neither in connection with the audits by KPMG Peat Marwick of the financial statements for those years, nor during any subsequent interim period, were there disagreements on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG Peat Marwick, would have caused it to make 2 reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports. Deloitte & Touche has, for a number of years, assisted the Company in the preparation of tax returns and with regard to other tax related matters. The Company did not, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years, or during any subsequent interim period, consult Deloitte & Touche regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements on which Deloitte & Touche provided a written report or written or oral advice which Deloitte & Touche concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or an event of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. Item 7. Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Statements and Exhibits. -------------------------------------------------------- (C) Exhibits Exhibit 16 - Letter from KPMG Peat Marwick 3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
