Table of Contents
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper
management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to
the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, management's assessment that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also in our opinion, the Company
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the criteria
established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005, and our report dated March 27,
2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included explanatory paragraphs concerning
matters related to (i) the Company's reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code and (ii) the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
