FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
ITEM 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
(1) Previous Independent Auditors:
|
a.
|
On October 25, 2010, the Company dismissed our independent registered auditor, Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP of Melville New York (“HRR”).
|
|
b.
|
HRR’s report on the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting.
|
|
c.
|
Our Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to change independent accountants. Through the period covered by the financial audit for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and including its review of financial statements of the quarterly periods through June 30, 2010 and the interim period through October 25, 2010, there have been no disagreements with HRR on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of HRR would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements.
|
|
d.
|
During the most recent review periods, subsequent to June 30, 2010 (through October 25, 2010), there have been no reportable events with us as set forth in Item 304(a)(i)(v) of Regulation S-K.
|
|
e.
|
We requested that HRR furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter is filed as an Exhibit to this Form 8-K.
|
(2) New Independent Accountants:
|
a.
|
We engaged Peter Messineo, CPA of Palm Harbor Florida, as our new independent registered auditor on October 25, 2010.
|
|
b.
|
Prior to October 25, 2010, we did not consult with Mr. Messineo regarding (i) the application of accounting principles, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by Mr. Messineo, or (iii) any other matter that was the subject of a disagreement between us and our former auditor or was a reportable event (as described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) or Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B, respectively).
