Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
As reported in Macatawa Bank Corporation's (the "Company") Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 21, 2010, as amended, on May 18, 2010, the Company's Audit Committee selected and appointed BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO Seidman") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. On May 20, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors ratified and approved the Audit Committee's selection and appointment of BDO Seidman as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. The selection and appointment of BDO Seidman followed a request for proposals process conducted by the Company during 2009 and 2010. The selection and appointment of BDO Seidman was recommended and approved by the Company's Audit Committee, which is comprised entirely of independent directors.
The formal engagement of BDO Seidman as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010 remained subject to completion of BDO Seidman's client intake procedures. Those procedures have been completed. On July 12, 2010, the Company engaged BDO Seidman as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010, by entering into an agreement to provide audit services.
During the two years ended December 31, 2009 and through July 12, 2010, the Company did not consult with BDO Seidman regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction (either completed or proposed), the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable event.
