During the last two fiscal years, ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, and since that date through the date hereof, there have been no disagreements with Samuel Klein and Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Samuel Klein and Company’s satisfaction, would have caused Samuel Klein and Company to make reference to the subject matter of any such disagreements in connection with its reports.
