Item 4.01
|
Change
in Registrant’s Certifying
Accountant.
|
In
connection with the reorganization of McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP (the
“Former Auditor”) certain of its audit partners resigned from the Former Auditor
and have joined DBBMcKennon (“DBB”). The Former Auditor resigned as the
independent auditor of BlueFire Ethanol Fuels, Inc. (the “Company”), effective
May 5, 2009. The Former Auditor has been the Company’s auditor since September
14, 2006.
As a
result of the above, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit
Committee”), and the Board of Directors of Bluefire Ethanol Fuels, Inc. (the
“Company”), on May 5, 2009, approved the resignation of the Former Auditor
effective May 5, 2009, and the engagement of DBB as the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009
effective May 5, 2009.
The
change in accountants did not result from any dissatisfaction with the quality
of professional services rendered by the Former Auditor.
The
Company has not consulted with DBB for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2008
and December 31, 2007, and the subsequent interim period through May
5 , 2009 regarding the application of accounting principles to any
contemplated or completed transactions nor the type of audit opinion that might
be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither written or oral
advice was provided that would be an important factor considered by the Company
in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues.
There were no matters that were either the subject of a disagreement (as
defined in paragraph 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as
described in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
In
connection with the audits of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
and the subsequent interim period through May 5, 2009, there we no
disagreements with the Former Auditor on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures,
which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them
to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the
disagreement. The Former Auditor’s reports on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
During
the Company's two most recent completed fiscal years, and interim period through
May 5, 2009, there were no "reportable events" as such term is described in Item
304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K with the Former Auditor.
The
Company provided the Former Auditor with a copy of this Current Report on Form
8-K/ A , and requested that the Former Auditor furnish the Company with a
letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether
the Former Auditor agrees with the disclosure contained in this report, or, if
not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The Company has
received the requested letter from the Former Auditor, and a copy of their
letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the original Current Report on Form
8-K filed on May 11, 2009.
