Accountant's Letter The Representative shall have received from Singer, Lewak, Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx LLP, a letter or letters dated, respectively, the date hereof and the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representative, substantially to the effect that:
(a) they are independent accountants with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the Rules and Regulations;
(b) in their opinion, the financial statements audited by them and included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus comply in form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related published rules and regulations;
(c) on the basis of a reading of the audited financial statements of the Company, for the year-ended January 31, 1997, and the unaudited financial statements of the Company for the period ended July 31, 1997 and the notes thereto, carrying out certain specified procedures (which do not constitute an audit made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards) that would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments set forth in this paragraph, a reading of the minute books of the shareholders, the board of directors and any committees thereof of the Company, and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that:
(i) the unaudited financial statements of the Company included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus do not comply in form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related published rules and regulations thereunder or are not in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; and
(ii) at a specific date not more than five business days prior to the date of such letter, there were any changes in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any decreases in net current assets or shareholders' equity of the Company, in each case compared with amounts shown on the July 31, 1997 balance sheet included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, or for the period from July 31, 1997 to such specified date there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in net sales, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, employee plans and bonuses, income (loss) from operations, interest expenses, income (loss) before income taxes, provision (benefit) for income taxes, net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share of the Company, except in all instances for changes, decreases or increases set forth in such letter; and
(d) they have carried out certain specified procedures, not constituting an audit, with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information that are derived from the general accounting records of the Company and are included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and have compared such amounts, percentages and financial information with such records of the Company and with information derived from such records and have found them to be in agreement, excluding any questions of legal interpretation. In the event that the letters referred to above set forth any such changes, decreases or increases, it shall be a further condition to the obligations of the Underwriters that such letters shall be accompanied by a written explanation of the Company as to the significance thereof, unless the Representative deems such explanation unnecessary, and such changes, decreases or increases do not, in the sole judgment of the Representative, make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the purchase and delivery of the Shares as contemplated by the Registration Statement, as amended as of the date hereof. References to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus in this Section 7.4 with respect to either letter referred to above shall include any amendment or supplement thereto at the date of such letter.
