CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT. On May 22, 2002, the Board of Directors of Landauer, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, dismissed its independent auditor, Arthur Andersen LLP. The decision to dismiss Arthur Andersen was recommended by the Company's Audit Committee and unanimously approved by the Company's Board of Directors. Arthur Andersen's report on the financial statements of the Company for each of the years ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 2001 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the years ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 2001 and the interim period between September 30, 2001 and May 22, 2002, there were no disagreements between the Company and Arthur Andersen 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 Arthur Andersen, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report. During the years ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 2001 and the interim period between September 30, 2001 and May 22, 2002, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

During the years ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 2001 and the interim period between September 30, 2001 and May 22, 2002, the Company did not consult with Price Waterhouse Coopers regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as described above) or a reportable event.
