Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountants
The Company dismissed its principal independent accountant, Robert G. Jeffrey, Certified Public Accountants (“Jeffrey & Co.”) from its engagement with the Company in the second quarter of 2009. Jeffrey & Co. was engaged by the Company in 2004. The members of the Board of Directors approved the Company’s decision to dismiss Jeffrey & Co. as the Company’s principal independent accountant and approved sending written notification to Jeffrey & Co. dated as of May 21, 2009.
There were no disagreements between the Company and Jeffrey & Co. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, from the time of Jeffrey & Co.’s engagement up to the date of dismissal which disagreements that, if not resolved to Jeffrey & Co.’s satisfaction, would have caused Jeffrey to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report issued in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements. None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A)-(D) of Regulation S-K occurred within the two fiscal years of the Company ended November 20, 2007 and 2008 and subsequently up to the date of dismissal. The audit report of Jeffrey & Co. on the financial statements of the Company as of November 30, 2008 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such audit report was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The Company expects that a letter from Jeffrey & Co. addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it concurs with the statements made by the Company with respect to Jeffrey in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be furnished separately within ten business days of the filing of this Current Report on Form 10-Q.
The Company has provided Jeffrey & Co. with a copy of the above disclosures, and has requested that Jeffrey & Co. furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made above. Mr. Jeffrey has indicated that he will not furnish the Company with the letter due to a fee dispute with the Company regarding the services he performed for the 2008 audit..
On May 21, 2009, the Company engaged Wei, Wei & Co., LLP (“Wei & Co.”) to serve as its independent auditor. The decision to engage Wei & Co. as the Company’s principal independent accountant was approved by the members of the Board of Directors of the Company. During the two fiscal years of the Company ended November 30, 2007 and 2008, and through the date of the Wei & Co.’s engagement, the Company did not consult Wei & Co. 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; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or “reportable event” within the meaning set forth in Regulation S-K, Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) or (a)(1)(v).
