The Registrant on April 10, 2001 gave notice of dismissal to its former independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP ("PWC"). In connection with its audits for the two most recent fiscal years and through April 10, 2001, there have been no disagreements with PWC 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 PWC would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such years. PWC's reports on the financial statements for the Registrant's past two fiscal years did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. In a letter dated April 13, 2001, PWC has confirmed its agreement with the statements made in this paragraph. During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period prior to April 13, 2001, Registrant has not consulted BNN on the application of accounting principles to any completed or proposed transaction. The decision to change auditors was made with the knowledge and approval of the Registrant's audit committee. Item 7. Exhibits. (c) Exhibits.
