On May 28, 2004, that firm's appointment as principal accountants was terminated by the Registrant and Holtz Rubenstein LLP was engaged as principal accountants. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of Directors and Audit Committee thereof of the Registrant, subject to shareholder approval sought at the Registrant's scheduled Annual Meeting. In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, and the subsequent interim period through May 28, 2004, there were no disagreements with Grant Thornton LLP, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. The audit reports of Grant Thornton LLP on the consolidated financial statements of the Registrant as of and for the two years ended December 31, 2003, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the two years ended December 31, 2003 and the subsequent interim period preceding the termination of Grant Thornton LLP on May 28, 2004, no reportable events occurred in connection with the relationship between Grant Thornton LLP, and the Registrant. A letter has not yet been received but is expected from Grant Thornton LLP confirming that which is disclosed herein, such letter to be included in an amended Form 8-K Report once received. Item 7.
