On October 29, 2017 (the “Dismissal Date”), the Board of Directors of the Company determined to dismiss Anton Chia as its independent registered public accounting firm.

Anton Chia has not prepared any reports on the audited financial statements of the Company.

During the period commencing with the engagement of Anton Chia on September 5, 2017 and through the Dismissal Date, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with Anton Chia 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 Anton Chia, would have caused it to make reference in connection with its opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.  Further, during the period commencing with the engagement of Anton Chia on September 5, 2017 and through the Dismissal Date, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The Company provided Anton Chia with a copy of this Report prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and requested Anton Chia to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC, stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made above and, if not, stating the respects in which they do not agree.   A copy of such letter will be filed by amendment once it is received.

On October 31, 2017 (the “Engagement Date”), the Company’s Board of Directors approved the appointment of Fruci as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years, the subsequent interim periods thereto, and through the Engagement Date, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Fruci regarding either (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction regarding the Company, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (2) any matter regarding the Company that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
