During the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof, there were no disagreements between the Corporation and Snodgrass on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Snodgrass, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports. None of the "reportable events" described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B occurred with respect to the Corporation within the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof. b.
