Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On August 4, 2009, Mr. John Faircloth, sole employee and CPA of Faircloth & Associates, Inc., the Company’s independent public accounting firm, passed away.
During the Company’s years ended December 31, 2007, and 2008 and through August 4, 2009, there were no disagreements between the Company and Faircloth & Associates, Inc. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to the former accountant’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the matter in conjunction with its report on the Company’s financial statements for the relevant periods, and there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The accountant’s audit report on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
