Item 4.01.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
 
(a) Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") of Unico American Corporation (the "Company") dismissed JLK Rosenberger LLP ("JLK") as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective June 11, 2021.
 
JLK's audit reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 did not contain any adverse opinions or disclaimers of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
 
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and the subsequent interim period through June 11, 2021, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and JLK 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 JLK, would have caused JLK to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for such years, and (ii) no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
The Company provided JLK with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Report") prior to the time the Report was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company requested that JLK furnish a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of JLK's letter, dated June 14, 2021, is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
