ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

         Subsequent to September 30, 2004, the end of the period covered by this
report, and in connection with preparation and review of our consolidated
financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, management
determined that an error had occurred related to the accounting for a derivative
hedging instrument as of and for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2004 and an
error had occurred in assessing the realizeability of deferred tax assets
related to the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities included in
accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2004.

         Executive management and the Finance and Audit Committee determined
that there was a material weakness relating to the timely review and monitoring
of certain account analyses, including the derivative hedging instrument and the
assessment of the realizeability of deferred tax assets included in accumulated
other comprehensive loss. In connection with restating our consolidated
financial statements as of June 30, 2004, as reflected in our amended annual
report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on November 10, 2004, our acting
principal executive officer and principal financial officer supervised and
participated with other management in evaluating the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures for the quarter ended September 30, 2004.
Based on this evaluation, the acting principal executive officer and principal
financial officer concluded that as of the quarter ended September 30, 2004
there were deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures, which
resulted in the conclusion that the disclosure controls were ineffective.
Further background on this matter and the changes in internal controls
instituted as a result of the errors are described below.

                                        3



CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

         Prior to the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC
on November 15, 2004, we made changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting.

         On October 29, 2004, we announced that we would restate our
consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2004, and the
quarterly information for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 included therein to
correct an error related to the accounting for a derivative hedging instrument
and an error in assessing the realizeability of deferred tax assets related to
the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities included in accumulated
other comprehensive loss.

         The error related to the hedging instrument resulted in a misallocation
between other income and accumulated other comprehensive loss as of and for the
quarter and year ended June 30, 2004. The error related to the assessment of the
realizeability of the deferred tax assets resulted in a decrease to deferred tax
assets and an increase to accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30,
2004. Executive management and the Finance and Audit Committee determined that
there was a material weakness relating to the timely review and monitoring of
certain account analyses, including the derivative hedging instrument and the
assessment of the realizeability of deferred tax assets established through
accumulated other comprehensive loss. No other matters were identified that
required significant adjustments to or modification of disclosure in our June
30, 2004 consolidated financial statements. We have instituted more
comprehensive review and monitoring procedures to mitigate the risk of errors in
these particular areas occurring in the future.
