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. The Registrant is currently in the process of selecting new independent auditors.
