ITEM 5.02.

DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS

On March 31, 2011, Phillip L. Jordan was appointed Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer of Bill the Butcher, Inc. Shortly after Mr. Jordan's appointment, the Company was advised by Peterson Sullivan, LLP (PSLLP), the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, that Mr. Jordan was considered by PSLLP to have been a member of the audit engagement team and an "associated person" of PSLLP during the period of PSLLP's audit of the Company's financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 and, as such, PSLLP's independence was of concern.
Although at the time we engaged Mr. Jordan we did not believe him to be an "associated person" of PSLLP during the period of the 2010 audit, in order to avoid any question about PSLLP's independence, effective May 1, 2011, Mr. Jordan, with the Company's approval, removed himself from the role of Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer, and J'Amy Owens resumed her role as interim chief financial officer of the Company. Effective June 24, 2011, Mr. Jordan's engagement with the Company ceased.
During Mr. Jordan's thirty-day tenure as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, he had no material involvement in a financial oversight role for the Company.
It is the Company's intention to retain PSLLP as its independent registered public accounting firm.
