Item 4.01

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On January 9, 2014 we dismissed Sadler, Gibb & Associates LLC (“Sadler) as our independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Friedman LLP (“Friedman”) to serve as our new independent registered public accounting firm. The dismissal of Sadler and appointment of Friedman was approved by our board of directors.

Sadler’s report on our financial statements for each of the past two fiscal years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the report was qualified as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012 and the subsequent interim period through January 9, 2014, there were no: (i) disagreements with Sadler on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope of procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Sadler, would have caused Sadler to make reference to the matter in their report, or (ii) reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company requested Sadler to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.  The requested letter has been furnished and is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012 and the subsequent interim period through January 9, 2014, neither we nor anyone acting on our behalf consulted Friedman regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

Item 5.03.

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, Change in Fiscal Year

On January 8, 2014, we determined to change our fiscal year from August 31 to December 31. As the transition period covers a period of one month (11/30/13 to 12/31/13), we are not required to file a transition report.
