Item 4.01 Changes in Registrants Certifying Accountant
On
April 9, 2009 MHM Mahoney Cohen CPAs (the New York Practice of
Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.) (MHM) was dismissed as the independent
accountant for the TD Bank 401(k) Retirement Plan (the Plan), and on April 13, 2009, Ernst &
Young LLP was appointed as the independent accountant for the Plan for the year ended December 31,
2008.
The decision to change independent accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors of TD Banknorth Inc. (the Company) on December 15, 2008.
The
reports of Mahoney Cohen and Company, CPA, P.C. (Mahoney
Cohen), whose shareholders became shareholders of MHM pursuant
to an asset purchase agreement effective December 31, 2008, on the financial statements of the Plan as of and for the years
ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor
were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
There
were no services provided by MHM to the Plan. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 and through April 9, 2009, there were no
disagreements with MHM or Mahoney Cohen on any matter of accounting principle or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the
satisfaction of MHM or Mahoney Cohen would have caused MHM or Mahoney Cohen to make reference thereto in its
reports on the Plans financial statements for such years.
None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurred
during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 and through April 9, 2009.
During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 and through April 9, 2009, the Plan did not
consult with Ernst & Young LLP regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item
304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
The Plan provided MHM with a copy of the foregoing disclosures, and a letter from
MHM confirming its agreement with these disclosures is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this
report.
