TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrants Certifying Accountants.
(a) On February 9, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company
determined it will dismiss PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), as the Companys independent
registered public accounting firm upon completion by PwC of its procedures on the Companys
financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006 and the Form 10-K in
which such financial statements will be included. Upon completion of such procedures by PwC, the
Company will file an amendment to this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K with an update
of the disclosures required by Items 304(a)(1)(ii), (iv) and (v) of Regulation S-K through the date
of completion of such procedures.
PwCs reports on the Companys consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended
January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principle.
During the Companys fiscal years ended January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, and through
February 9, 2006, there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure (within the meaning of
Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) which, if not resolved to PwCs satisfaction, would have
caused PwC to make reference thereto in its report on the Companys consolidated financial
statements for such years. There were no reportable events (as defined by Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K), except for a material weakness in the Companys internal control over the
selection and application of our lease accounting policies, which failed to identify misstatements
in property and equipment, deferred credits from landlords, rent expense, depreciation expense and
the related impact of these items on cash provided by operating activities and cash used for
investing activities (the Material Weakness), as reported in the Companys Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2005 (the 2004 Form 10-K). PwC discussed the Material
Weakness with the Audit Committee during the Companys preparation of the 2004 Form 10-K. As
reported in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2005, the
Material Weakness was remediated. The Company has authorized PwC to respond fully to any inquiries
by the successor independent registered public accounting firm relating to the Material Weakness.
The Company requested PwC to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and
Exchange Commission stating whether PwC agrees with the above statements. At the time of filing of
the initial Current Report on Form 8-K to report this matter, the Company had not received PwCs
letter. The Company received PwCs letter on February 23, 2006. A copy of PwCs letter is
attached to this Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.1.
(b) On February 14, 2006, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Deloitte & Touche
LLP (Deloitte & Touche) to serve as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm
for the fiscal year ending February 3, 2007. The decision to appoint Deloitte and Touche as the
Companys independent registered public accounting firm was made by the
2
Audit Committee and was the result of a competitive review process involving several
accounting firms.
During the Companys fiscal years ended January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, and through
February 9, 2006, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Deloitte & Touche
regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
