Item 4.01
Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
 
On May 8, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Be Active Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of Weinberg & Baer LLC (“W&B”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

During the period beginning April 3, 2013 (the date W&B was appointed as the Company’s public accounting firm) through May 8, 2013, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and W&B 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 W&B, would have caused W&B to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and (ii) there were no reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

W&B had previously served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and issued reports on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

On May 8, 2013, the Company provided W&B with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that W&B furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.  A copy of the letter, dated May 8, 2013, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

On May 8, 2013, the Company engaged Cornick Garber Sandler LLP (“CGS”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The change in the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 8, 2013.
 
During the period beginning April 3, 2013 and ending May 8, 2013, the Company did not consult with CGS regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event identified in response to (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

CGS has previously served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, beginning on January 23, 2013 and ending on April 3, 2013, however, during this time CGS did not issue any reports regarding any of the Company’s financial statements.
