Item 4.01 Changes In The Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) | Independent Accountant Merges with BDO Dunwoody LLP |
Amisano Hanson, Chartered Accountants ("Amisano Hanson") recently entered into an agreement with BDO Dunwoody LLP ("BDO Dunwoody"), pursuant to which Amisano Hanson will merge its operations into BDO Dunwoody and certain of the professional staff and partners joined BDO Dunwoody either as employees or partners of BDO Dunwoody and will continue to practice as members of BDO Dunwoody.
Commensurate with the merger of Amisano Hanson with BDO Dunwoody, on January 31, 2008, Amisano Hanson resigned as our independent accountant; and concurrent with the resignation of Amisano Hanson, we engaged BDO Dunwoody as our independent accountant. Prior to engaging BDO Dunwoody, we did not consult with BDO Dunwoody regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by BDO Dunwoody on our company's financial
statements, and BDO Dunwoody did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by our company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue. The engagement of BDO Dunwoody was approved by the Board of Directors of our company.
The reports of Amisano Hanson regarding our company's financial statements for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, and for the period from October 27, 2004 (date of inception) to May 31, 2007, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such reports on our financial statements for the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, and for the period from October 27, 2004 (date of inception) to May 31, 2007, contained an explanatory paragraph in respect to uncertainty as to our company's ability to continue as a going concern. During the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, and the period from October 27, 2004 (date of inception) to May 31, 2007, and during the period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through January 31, 2008, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Amisano Hanson on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Amisano Hanson would have caused it to make reference to such disagreements in its reports.
Our company provided Amisano Hanson with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that Amisano Hanson furnish our company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter, dated February 20, 2008, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
