Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

(a) On November 21, 2013, the PCAOB revoked the registration of the Registrant’s prior independent accountant, Harris F. Rattray, CPA (“Harris”), due to Harris’ violations of PCAOB rules and auditing standards in auditing the financial statements and PCAOB rules and quality control standards with respect to Harris’ clients; the Registrant was not one of the clients for which Harris was sanctioned.

 

On December 27, 2013, Harris F. Rattray, CPA (“Harris”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company. The resignation was accepted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). Read more: http://pcaobus.org/Enforcement/Decisions/Documents/11212013_Rattray.pdf.

 

Other than an explanatory paragraph included in Harris’ audit reports for the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 relating to the uncertainty of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, the audit reports of Harris on the Company's financial statements for the last two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012 through December 27, 2013, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

 

During the Company's 2012 and 2011 fiscal years and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, (1) there were no disagreements with Harris on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Harris, would have caused Harris to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their report, and (2) there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

(b) On January 2, 2014, the Company engaged Silberstein Ungar, PLLC, as the Company's independent accountant to audit the Company’s financial statements and to perform reviews of interim financial statements. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 through January 4, 2014 neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with Silberstein Ungar, PLLC regarding (i) either the application of any accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction of the Company, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by Silberstein Ungar, PLLC on the Company's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with Harris or a reportable event with respect to Harris.
