Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On December 2, 2011, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of PAID, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the engagement of Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm, which was subsequently approved by the Company's Board of Directors on such date. CCR LLP (“CCR”) the Company's former independent registered public accounting firm resigned as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm simultaneous with the engagement of Grant Thornton by the Company on December 2, 2011. This change was a result of Grant Thornton's acquisition of CCR on December 1, 2011.
CCR's reports on the Company's financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion (except for an emphasis of matter paragraph in 2009 which discussed substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern) and were not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and through December 2, 2011, there were no disagreements between the Company and CCR on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CCR, would have caused CCR to make reference to the matter in their report. None of the “reportable events” described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the SEC's rules and regulations have occurred during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 or through December 2, 2011.
The Company requested CCR to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether CCR agrees with the above statements. A copy of CCR's letter, dated December 7, 2011, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and through the date of this Form 8-K, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Grant Thornton regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and Grant Thornton did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with CCR, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CCR, would have caused CCR to make reference to the matter in their report, or a “reportable event” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the SEC's rules and regulations.
