  statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if
  not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in
  connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, or (2)&nbsp;reportable
  events, except that KPMG LLP advised Angeion Corporation of the following
  material weakness:&#160; the Company did not
  have, and through its engagement of third party outside advisers did not
  acquire, adequate technical expertise to effectively oversee and review the
  Company&#146;s accounting for the utilization of pre-emergence bankruptcy net
  operating loss (NOL) carry forwards in accordance with AICPA Statement of
  Position 90-7, <i>Financial Reporting by

  error in the provision for taxes, goodwill, and other intangible assets.</font></p>

  Section 4 — Matters Related
  to Accountants and Financial Statements
  Item 4.01  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
  KPMG
  LLP was previously the principal accountants for Angeion Corporation (the
  Company). On May 1, 2008, that firm was dismissed and Virchow Krause &
  Company was engaged as principal accountants. The decision to change accountants
  was approved by the audit committee of the board of directors.
  During
  the two fiscal years ended October 31, 2007, and the subsequent interim
  period through May 1, 2008, there were no: (1) disagreements with
  KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
  statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if
  not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in
  connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, or (2) reportable
  events, except that KPMG LLP advised Angeion Corporation of the following
  material weakness:  the Company did not
  have, and through its engagement of third party outside advisers did not
  acquire, adequate technical expertise to effectively oversee and review the
  Company's accounting for the utilization of pre-emergence bankruptcy net
  operating loss (NOL) carry forwards in accordance with AICPA Statement of
  Position 90-7,
  Financial Reporting by
  Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code
  .  As a
  result, the Company restated the financial information included in the first
  three quarters of the year ended October 31, 2006, to correct a material
  error in the provision for taxes, goodwill, and other intangible assets.
  The
  audit reports of KPMG LLP on the consolidated financial statements of Angeion
  Corporation as of and for the years ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 did
  not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they
  qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles,
  except as follows: KPMG LLP's report on the consolidated financial statements
  of Angeion Corporation as of and for the years ended October 31, 2007 and
  2006, contained a separate paragraph stating that " As discussed in Note 2 to
  the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of
  Financial Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),
  Share-Based Payment,
  on November 1, 2006 and Staff
  Accounting Bulletin No. 108,
  Considering
  the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in
  Current Year Financial Statements,
  in the year ended October 31,
  2007."
  A letter from KPMG LLP is
  attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
  Selection of Virchow Krause &
  Company, LLP
  Effective May 1,
  2008, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the
  engagement of Virchow Krause & Company, LLP ("Virchow Krause") as the
  Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year
  ended October 31, 2008 to replace KPMG.
  During the two most
  recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of this Form 8-K,
  the Company did not consult with Virchow Krause regarding either (i) the
  application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either
  completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be
  rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (iii) any matter that
  was either subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of
  Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
  Regulation S-K).
  2
  On May 7, 2008, the
  Company issued a press release announcing the dismissal of KPMG and the engagement
  of Virchow Krause to serve as the Company's independent auditor.  The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
