(a) Dismissal of Independent Accounting Firm On March 29, 2001, the Company dismissed Ernst & Young LLP ("Ernst & Young") as the Company's independent auditors. The decision to dismiss Ernst & Young was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The reports of Ernst & Young on the Company's financial statements for each of the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle. In connection with the audits by Ernst & Young of the Company's financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, and in the subsequent interim period through March 29, 2001, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young would have caused Ernst & Young to make reference to the matter in their report. The Company has requested Ernst & Young to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter, dated April 4, 2001 is filed as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K. (b) New independent accountant On March 29, 2001, the Company elected Grant Thornton LLP ("Grant Thornton") as the Company's independent auditors. The decision to change auditors was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through March 29, 2001, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company consulted Grant Thornton regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company or any matter described in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(2).
