Previous independent registered public accounting firm
(a) On January 13, 2009, Flex Fuels Energy, Inc. (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) notified BDO Stoy Hayward LLP (“BDO”) that it was dismissed as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss BDO as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Except as noted in the paragraph immediately below, the reports of BDO on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the period from March 10, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such reports were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.
The reports of BDO on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the period from March 10, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007 contained an explanatory paragraph which noted that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to uncertainty with respect to Company’s ability to meet current cash requirements.
During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the period from March 10, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007 through January 13, 2009, the Company has not had any disagreements with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to BDO’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such periods.
During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the period from March 10, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007 through January 13, 2009, there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, save for the following:
On 24 October 2008, BDO Stoy Hayward LLP wrote to the then Chief Executive Officer setting out their concerns that Board unrest appeared to have the capacity to impair its ability to exercise effective oversight over the company. There was no disagreement with BDO Stoy Hayward LLP over this issue at the time or since and the principal recommendation made by them in their letter, being the creation of an audit committee made up of appropriately qualified Non-Executive Directors, is now being given full consideration by the Board.
The Company provided BDO with a copy of this disclosure set forth under this Item 4.01 and BDO was requested to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements.
A copy of the letter from BDO is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1

2. | any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K). |
