Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On February 20, 2015 the Company was notified by L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC that the firm resigned as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.  In connection with the resignation, L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC informed the Company that it will no longer service SEC reporting companies because partners in its SEC practice moved to RBSM, LLP.  The Company's financial statements will be audited by RBSM, LLP and no longer by L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC.

The reports provided by L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC in connection with the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year-ended April 30, 2014, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was the report qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

There were no disagreements between the Company and L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC 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 L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC, would have caused L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and there were no other reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

On February 23, 2015, the Company provided L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Current Report on Form 8-K, and requested that L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.  A copy of the letter dated February 23, 2015, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

As reported above, on February 23, 2015, the Audit Committee engaged RBSM, LLP to be the Company's independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2015.  During the two most recent completed fiscal years and through February 23, 2015, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with RBSM, LLP regarding any of the following: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the company's financial statements, and none of the following was provided to the Company (a) a written report, or (b) oral advise that RBSM, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (iii) any matter that was subject of a disagreement, as the term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
Item 9.01.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

16.1 Letter from L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC dated February 23, 2015.
