Item 4.01 (a) Changes in Registrants’ Certifying Accountant
In taking into consideration the new specialized needs related to Strateco Resources Inc.’s expansion, (the “Registrant”), the Registrant gives the present notice that it will change its principal accountant.
1) Pursuant to Item 304 (a) (1) of Regulation S-K of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, Strateco Resources Inc. (“the Registrant”) hereby reports the dismissal of the independent accountant previously engaged to audit the Registrant’s financial statements.
i) The Registrant in taking expansion with the underground exploration program for uranium will require the services of an independent principal accountant offering a wider range of specialized services to complete the audit of the fiscal year to end on December 31, 2010., so PETRIE RAYMOND, LLP, Chartered Accountants, (“PETRIE RAYMOND”), the Registrant’s independent principal accountant since May 12, 2004, after having fully completed the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, was dismissed as principal accountant of the Registrant as of March 23, 2010.
ii) The principal accountant’s report on the financial statements for either of the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was qualified, or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
iii) After examination and review of the needs and interests of the Registrant and recommendation by the Registrant’ Audit committee, the Board of Directors took the decision to dismiss the principal accountant and to propose a new principal accountant to the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 27, 2010.
iv) During the Registrant’s two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding the dismissal of PETRIE RAYMOND, as the principal accountant, there was no disagreement with PETRIE RAYMOND, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report.
2) Pursuant to the requirements of Item 304 (a) (3) of Regulation S-K of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant provided PETRIE RAYMOND, with copy of the present disclosure and requested PETRIE RAYMOND, to furnish the Registrant with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant in response to Item 304 (a) and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The Registrant files herewith PETRIE RAYMOND’s letter asExhibit 16to the present report.
