SECTION 4 — MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

At its June Meeting, the Audit Committee of Columbia Seligman Premium Technology Growth Fund, Inc. (the Fund) recommended, and the Fund’s Board of Directors approved, the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PricewaterhouseCoopers) as independent auditor for the Fund, as well as the other funds in the Columbia Family of Funds (collectively, the Funds). PricewaterhouseCoopers’ engagement is effective at the completion of Ernst & Young LLP (Ernst & Young)’s audits of the financial statements of the Funds with fiscal years ending July 31, 2012, which is expected to be completed in September 2012. Ernst & Young completed the audit of the Fund’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and issued its report on February 22, 2012.

Ernst & Young’s report on the Fund’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During such fiscal periods and through the June Meeting, there were no disagreements between the Fund and Ernst & Young on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or audit scope or procedures, which such disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports on the financial statements for such fiscal periods.

The Fund has provided Ernst & Young with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. A copy of Ernst & Young’s letter dated July 3, 2012 stating its agreement with the above statements is attached as Exhibit 16.1.
