PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company’s
consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting as of September
30, 2011 as stated in its report which is included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K and is incorporated by reference
herein.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as noted below, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the Company completed the implementation of a global financial
consolidations software system, and maintained and monitored appropriate internal controls during the
implementation period. The Company believes that its internal control environment has been enhanced as a result of
this implementation.
The Company is also undertaking the implementation of new enterprise resource planning (―ERP‖) systems in
certain businesses, which will occur over a period of several years. As the phased roll-out of the new ERP systems
occurs, the Company may experience changes in its internal control over financial reporting. No significant changes
were made to the Company’s current internal control over financial reporting as a result of the implementation of the
new ERP systems during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.
ITEM 9B OTHER INFORMATION
None.
