Item 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On November 12, 1998, the Registrant notified KPMG Peat Marwick LLP ("KPMG")
that it was dismissing such firm as its independent accountant effective
immediately. This dismissal was approved by the Registrant's Board of
Directors.
During the fiscal years ended January 25, 1998 and January 26, 1997 and
through the date of this report, there were no disagreements with KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or audit scope or procedure which disagreement, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused it to make reference
to the subject matter of such disagreement in connection with this report.
The accountant's report for the fiscal years ended January 25, 1998 and
January 26, 1997 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles.
During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of
this report, the Registrant has had no reportable events as defined in Item
304(a)(l)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Registrant has requested that KPMG furnish it with a letter addressed to
the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the
above statements. A copy of that letter is filed as an exhibit to this
report.
