Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a), (b) The Audit Committee of the American Xanthan Corporation (the “Company”) recently completed a competitive process to determine what audit firm would serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2014. On March 21, 2014 the Audit Committee determined to dismiss BF Borgers CPA PC (“BFB”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm effective immediately. BFB was chosen, however, to continue to provide services to the Company with respect to tax-planning services.

The reports of BFB on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except relevant to the audit report for the year ended December 31, 2013 which stated as follows:

"The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not yet engaged in an operating business, does not have sufficient capital to implement its business plan, and must rely upon uncompensated officers and directors to maintain essential business functions, which raises a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty."

During the year ended December 31, 2013, there were no (a) disagreements with BFB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to BFB's satisfaction, would have caused BFB to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports for such year; or (b) reportable events, as described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided BFB with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested from BFB a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission indicating whether it agrees with such disclosures. A copy of BFB's letter dated March 19, 2015 is attached as Exhibit 16.1.

Contemporaneous with the determination to dismiss BFB, the Audit Committee engaged Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2014, also effective immediately on March 21, 2014.

During the year ended December 31, 2013 and the subsequent interim period through March 19, 2014, the Company did not consult with Ernst & Young LLP regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.
