On February 1, 2020, the board of directors of TraqIQ, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the selection of AJSH & Co LLP (“AJSH”) as its independent registered public accounting firm replacing MAC Accounting Group, LLP (“MAC”).
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On February 1, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved the dismissal of MAC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the Company accordingly notified MAC of such action effective as of that date.
The report of MAC on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, other than the statements related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In addition, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, there were no “disagreements” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) between the Company and MAC with respect to any matter relating to accounting principles, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MAC, would have caused MAC to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports on the Company’s financial statements with respect to such periods.
MAC’s letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating its agreement with the statements in these paragraphs is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

On February 1, 2020, the Company engaged AJSH as its new independent registered public accounting firm. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and through February 1, 2020, the date the Company engaged AJSH, the Company did not consult with AJSH regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
