Item 8.01. Other Events.

Ernst & Young LLP recently informed our Audit Committee that, in connection with certain income tax compliance services, a member firm of Ernst & Young LLP held employment and business and corporate income tax related funds of a de minimis amount and made payment of such funds to the applicable tax authorities in respect of our representative offices in China and employees in those offices. These actions by the member firm of Ernst & Young LLP have been discontinued. Custody of the assets of an audit client is not permitted under the auditor independence rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Audit Committee and Ernst & Young LLP have considered the impact that the holding and paying of these funds may have had on Ernst & Young LLP’s independence with respect to our company and have concluded that there has been no impairment of Ernst & Young LLP’s independence. In making this determination, our Audit Committee considered the de minimis amount of funds involved, the ministerial na ture of the actions, and that the offices and related subsidiary involved were immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.
