Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On May 7, 2002, BroadVision, Inc. (the "Company") engaged the services of BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO Seidman") as its new independent auditors for its current fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. The Company's Board of Directors, with the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee"), authorized and approved the engagement of BDO Seidman.
In deciding to select BDO Seidman, the Audit Committee and the management of the Company considered auditor independence issues raised by commercial relationships the Company has or may have with certain accounting firms. With respect to BDO Seidman, the Company does not have any commercial relationship with BDO Seidman that would impair its independence.
During the two most recent fiscal years of the Company ended December 31, 2001, and the subsequent interim period through May 7, 2002, the Company did not consult with BDO Seidman regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
