Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

As previously disclosed by Plumas Bancorp (the "Company") on its Current Report on 8-K filed on December 23, 2013, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Company, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. In connection with the selection of Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Company, LLP , on December 19, 2013, the Company notified Crowe Horwath LLP that it would be dismissed as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm upon the completion of its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ending December 31, 2013.

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 23, 2013, to confirm that, upon Crowe Horwath LLP’s issuance of its Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, dated March 20, 2014, in connection with the Company’s filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, Crowe Horwath LLP completed its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and therefore, no longer serves as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The audit report of Crowe Horwath LLP on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the subsequent interim period through March 20, 2014 there were: (1) no disagreements between the Company and Crowe Horwath LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Crowe Horwath LLP would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years, and (2) no reportable events within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided Crowe Horwath LLP with a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K/A and has requested that Crowe Horwath LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the Company’s statements in this Item 4.01. A copy of the letter dated March 21, 2014 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K/A.

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the subsequent interim period through March 20, 2014 the Company did not consult Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Company, LLP regarding: (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Company, LLP did not provide any written report or oral advice that Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Company, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (3) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
