Item 4.01: Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On January 14, 2008, we were informed by Miller Ray Houser & Stewart LLP (“MRHS”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, that MRHS, as a result of its acquisition by Habif, Arogeti & Wynne, LLP (“HA&W”), will cease providing audit services to public companies and will apply for withdrawal from registration with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) effective January 31, 2008.  HA&W is registered with the PCAOB.  By virtue of the merger, HA&W was appointed and approved by the Company’s audit committee as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective January 14, 2008.

 

MRHS was engaged by us as our registered public accounting firm on April 20, 2007 and has not issued any reports on any of our financial statements.

 

Through the date of this Form 8-K, there were: (1) no disagreements between the Company and MRHS on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, and (2) no reportable events within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(l)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company has provided MRHS with a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K and has requested that MRHS furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not MRHS agrees with the Company’s statements in this Form 8-K. A copy of the letter dated January 18, 2008 furnished by MRHS in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
