Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation of the Company’ s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a) – 15(e)
and 15(d) – 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the Company’ s fiscal year
ended October 1, 2006, the Company’ s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (its principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, respectively) have concluded that the Company’ s disclosure controls and
procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes in the Company’ s internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the Company’ s fiscal quarter ended October 1, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company’ s internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Company’ s internal control over financial reporting is
designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’ s management and Board of Directors regarding the
preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with
respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’ s internal control over financial reporting as of October
1, 2006. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management has
concluded that, as of October 1, 2006, the Company’ s internal control over financial reporting was effective based
on these criteria.
The Company’ s independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an audit report on our
assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which follows.
