Item 4.01 - Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
The Board of Directors of Hinto Energy, Inc. ("the Company") appointed BF
Borgers, CPA PC as the Company's the independent registered public accountant on
June 5, 2013. The Company's prior independent registered public accountant,
Borgers & Cutler, CPA, PC resigned on June 3, 2013, as reported in the Company's
Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 4, 2013.
The action to engage new auditors was approved by the Board of Directors. No
audit committee exists, other than the members of the Board of Directors.
The audits for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the
cumulative period of January 1, 2012 through September 30, 2012, were handled by
Ronald Chadwick, PC. and through the date of termination, April 15, 2013, no
disagreements exist with the former independent registered public accountant on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, internal control assessment, or auditing scope of procedure, which
disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant would
have caused them to make reference in connection with their report to the
subject of the disagreement(s).
The Independent Auditor Report by Ronald Chadwick, PC for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2010 and 2011, contained an opinion which included a paragraph
discussing uncertainties related to continuation of the Company as a going
concern.
Prior to engaging BF Borgers, CPA, PC, the Company had not consulted BF Borgers,
CPA, PC regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction, completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion that might be
rendered on the Company's financial statements or a reportable event, nor did
the Company consult with BF Borgers, CPA, regarding any disagreements with its
prior auditor 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 the prior auditor, would have caused it to
make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with
its reports.
