| (iii) | During the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the subsequent period through the date of termination (A) there have been no disagreements with either Goldstein Schechter Koch or DYM, as the case may be, whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Goldstein Schechter Koch or DYM, would have caused Goldstein Schechter Koch or DYM, as the case may be, to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their respective reports, (B) no such disagreement was discussed with the Company’s board of directors or any committee of the board of directors of the Company and (C) there have been no “reportable events” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. |
| (iv) | We have provided Goldstein Schechter Koch, for itself and as the successor firm to DYM, with a copy of this report and have requested Goldstein Schechter Koch to furnish us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether such firm agrees with the statements made by the Company in this report, and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.
