INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8 are not applicable and are omitted from this report.
Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
The registrant has dismissed its former principal accountants, KPMG LLP and
engaged Grant Thornton LLP as its principal accountants. The change was made
effective October 4, 1999. The decision to change accountants was recommended by
the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors of the registrant.
Neither of the reports of the former principal accountants on the financial
statements of the registrant for the past two years contained an adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion, nor was either qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the two most recent fiscal years of the registrant and each subsequent
interim period preceding July 1, 1999 (the most recent quarter for which KPMG
has reviewed the financial statements), there were no disagreements with the
former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountants,
would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the
disagreements in connection with their report.
No "reportable events," as identified in Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(v), have
occurred within the registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent
interim periods.
During the registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim
periods, the registrant has not consulted Grant Thornton LLP regarding any
matter requiring disclosure under Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(2).
The registrant has provided KPMG LLP with a copy of this disclosure and has
requested that KPMG LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating
whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of KPMG's letter to the SEC
dated October 11, 1999, is filed as Exhibit 16 to this report on Form 8-K.
Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits
