INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On February 21, 2006, Ernst & Young LLP was dismissed as the independent registered public accountants to audit the financial statements of the Registrant and the Registrant engaged the firm of Stegman & Company to serve as its independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006. The decision to change accountants was effective immediately and was made by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. Stegman & Company will review the Registrant’s financial statements for the quarter ending March 31, 2006.

The audit report of Ernst & Young LLP on the Registrant’s financial statements as of June 30, 2005 and for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2005 (“the Audit Period”) did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Audit Period and through the date of this report, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scopes or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountants, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with this report, and there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the Audit Period and through the date of this report, the Registrant did not consult with Stegman & Company regarding any of the matters or events described in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

The Registrant provided Ernst & Young LLP with a copy of the above disclosure. A letter from Ernst & Young dated February 23, 2006 stating its agreement with the statements concerning Ernst & Young is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
