Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On May 3, 2006, MacKay LLP, Chartered Accountants of Vancouver, Canada resigned as Wentworth Energy, Inc.’s principal independent accountants and Hein & Associates LLP, Certified Public Accountants of Dallas, Texas were appointed in their place.
The Company’s decision was based on its need for accountants located nearer the Company’s base of operations in Texas. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company’s board of directors, and there were no disagreements with the former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. The former accountants’ reports on the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005 contained no adverse opinions, disclaimers of opinion, nor were they modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The former accountants have reviewed the above statements and their response is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
