Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
As described in Items 4.01(a) and (b) below, Sino Silver Corp. (the "Company") has dismissed Amisano Hanson, Chartered Accountants ("Amisano"), as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and engaged GHP Horwath, P.C. as its new independent registered public accounting firm. As described in the third paragraph of Item 4.01(a) below, the change in independent registered public accounting firms is not the result of any disagreement with Amisano. The Company's management and the members of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors believe that the engagement of GHP Horwath, P.C. will permit the Company to obtain the same audit services within the United States at a similar cost to the Company.
Item 4.01(a) – Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 7, 2005, the Company dismissed Amisano as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company participated in and approved the decision to dismiss Amisano.
The reports of Amisano on the financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. However, such reports included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and through June 7, 2005, there were no disagreements with Amisano on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. Had there been any disagreements of the type referred to in this paragraph during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and through June 7, 2005, which were not resolved to the satisfaction of Amisano, then Amisano would have had to make a reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on the financial statements for such years.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and through June 7, 2005, there have been no "reportable events," as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has requested the Amisano furnish it with a letter addressed to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements in Item 401(a). A copy of such letter will be filed separately.
Item 401(B) – New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 8, 2005, the Company engaged GHP Horwath, P.C. ("Horwath") as its new independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, and to perform procedures related to the financial statements included in the Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, b eginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company participated in and approved the decision to engage Horwath. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and through June 7, 2005, the Company has not consulted with Horwath regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that Horwath concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any manner that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K .
