(c) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
At the time of the mergers, EB operated on different information technology systems than the Company. The
Company implemented its information technology systems and integrated its internal control processes at EB
during fiscal 2006. Changes to certain processes, information technology systems, and other components of internal
controls resulting from the acquisition of EB occurred and were evaluated by management as such integration
activities were implemented. Other than the impact of the acquisition of EB, there was no change in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
Exchange Act) during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
