During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, CVW&B’s reports on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and the subsequent interim period through August 2, 2012, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and CVW&B on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CVW&B would have caused CVW&B to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and (ii) there were no reportable events as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
On August 2, 2012, the Company provided CVW&B with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that CVW&B furnished it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.
