Item 4.01
Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
 
(a) Previous independent registered public accounting firm

 
(i) 
On February 19, 2013, Anton & Chia LLP (“Anton & Chia”) resigned as independent auditor of Mondial Ventures, Inc. (the “Registrant”).
 
 
(ii)
The reports of Anton and Chia on the Registrant’s consolidated unaudited financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle except to indicate that there was substantial doubt about the Registrant’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
 
(iii) 
The board of directors and audit committee of the Registrant represented by the board of directors discussed the resignation with Anton & Chia and reluctantly accept such resignation.
 
 
(iv) 
During the Registrant's most recent interim periods, and any subsequent interim period preceding the resignation on February 19, 2013, there were no disagreements between the Registrant and Anton & Chia on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Anton & Chia, would have caused Anton & Chia to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with his reports.
 
  
(v) 
The Registrant has provided Anton & Chia with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to this Item.  The Registrant has requested Anton & Chia to furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.  The Registrant has filed the letter furnished by Anton & Chia as an exhibit to this Report.
         
(b) New independent registered public accounting firm
 
On February 19, 2013, the Registrant's board of directors resolved to retain M&K CPAS, PLLC as the sole principal independent registered accountant for the Registrant. During the two most recent fiscal years and through February 19, 2013, the Company had not consulted with M&K CPAS, PLLC regarding any of the following:
 
 
(i)
The application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed;
 
 
(ii)
The type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's consolidated financial statements, and none of the following was provided to the Registrant: (a) a written report, or (b) oral advice that M&K CPAS, PLLC concluded was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or
 
  
(iii)
Any matter that was subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
