Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On June 12, 2008, Aidman, Piser & Company, P.A. (“Aidman Piser”) resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Aidman Piser recently entered into an agreement with Cherry, Bekaert & Holland, L.L.P. (“Cherry Bekaert”), pursuant to which Aidman Piser merged its operations into Cherry Bekaert and certain of the professional staff and partners of Aidman Piser joined Cherry Bekaert either as employees or partners of Cherry Bekaert and will continue to practice as members of Cherry Bekaert. On June 9, 2008, prior to the resignation of Aidman Piser, the Company, and with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, engaged Cherry Bekaert as its independent registered public accounting firm.
Prior to engaging Cherry Bekaert, the Company did not consult with Cherry Bekaert regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit options that might be rendered by Cherry Bekaert on the Company’s financial statements, and Cherry Bekaert did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.
The reports of Aidman Piser regarding the Company’s financial statements for the period from inception on November 22, 2007 through March 31, 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that substantial doubt was raised as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, during the periods from April 1, 2006 through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Aidman Piser 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 Aidman Piser, would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its reports.
The Company provided Aidman Piser with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that Aidman Piser furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated June 12, 2008, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
