EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Form 8-K/A is being filed to revise certain of the disclosure provided in Item 4.01 of the Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 29, 2006.
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On December 28, 2006, upon the closing of the Share Exchange, we elected to replace S.W. Hatfield, CPA (“SWH”), as our registered independent public accounting firm. We have retained Vasquez & Company LLP (“Vasquez”), which is the Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm for International Stem Cell, as our new independent registered public accounting firm effective as of December 28, 2006. Vasquez is located at 801 South Grand Avenue, Suite 400 Los Angeles, California 90017, California.
During our two most recent fiscal years, and the subsequent interim periods, prior to December 28, 2006, we did not consult Vasquez regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant’s financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B.
The Report of Registered Independent Certified Public Accounting Firm issued by SWH for the year ended December 31, 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except for a going concern opinion expressing substantial doubt about the ability of the company, to continue as a going concern.
During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods from January 1, 2006 through December 28, 2006, (i) there were no disagreements with SWH on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, except that SWH opinion expressed substantial doubt with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern for both fiscal years. Further, there were no “reportable events,” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B, during our most recent fiscal year (ended December 31, 2005) and from January 1, 2006 to December 28, 2006.
SWH furnished a letter addressed to the SEC stating that it agreed with the statements. A copy of SWH’s letter to the SEC is filed with this Report on Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 16.1.
