Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On January 22, 2009, the board of directors of IX Energy Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Weinberg & Associates LLC (“Weinberg”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, and any subsequent period through January 29, 2009, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Weinberg on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Weinberg would have caused Weinberg to make reference to the matter in its reports on the Company's financial statements, and (ii) Except as described below, Weinberg’s reports on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Weinberg’s audit report for the year ended December 31, 2007 stated that several factors raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and that the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and through January 29, 2009, there were no reportable events as the term described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
On January 29, 2009, the Company provided Weinberg with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that Weinberg furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter, dated January 29, 2009, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
On January 22, 2009, the Company engaged Berman & Company, P.A. (“Berman”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The change in the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on January 22, 2009.
During the year ended December 31, 2007 and any subsequent period through January 22, 2009, the Company did not consult with Berman regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, 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 event identified in response to (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
