No report of ACSB on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010 and through September 6, 2011 contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010 and through September 6, 2011: (i) there have been no disagreements with ACSB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to ACSB’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) ACSB did not advise the Company of any of the events requiring reporting in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided ACSB with a copy of the disclosure contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K on September 12, 2011, and requested ACSB to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements made by the Company herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.
