4 - Matters Related to Accountants and Financial
Statements
Item
4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On
August
11, 2006, we dismissed Malone & Bailey PC as our independent accountants,
and we engaged KBL, LLP as our independent accountants.
The
reports of Malone & Bailey PC on the financial statements of GL Energy &
Exploration, Inc. for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 did
not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles,
except that the accountant’s reports of Malone & Bailey PC on our financial
statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 stated that
we
had recurring losses from operation and a working capital deficiency which
raised raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern.
The
decision
to change accountants from Malone & Bailey PC to KBL, LLP was approved by
our board of directors. KBL, LLP was American’s auditor prior to its acquisition
by GL Energy pursuant to the Exchange Agreement on March 13, 2006 and KBL,
LLP
audited American’s financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2005 which
were included in GL Energy’s current report on Form 8K filed with the Commission
on March 14, 2006.
During
our fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and April 30, 2006 (after
our
change in fiscal year) and the subsequent interim period through August 11,
2006, the date of the dismissal of Malone & Bailey PC, we did not have any
disagreement with Malone & Bailey PC on any matter of accounting principles
or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
except as follows:
Malone
& Bailey PC expressed concern with the accounting principles applied to the
valuation of intangible assets acquired by American Southwest Music in exchange
for shares of its own common stock issued to a control person, or an entity
owned by that control person. Malone and Bailey PC refers to Staff Accounting
Bulletin SAB.T.5G. “Transfers of Non-monetary Assets by promoters or
Shareholders” which indicates that the transfer of assets to a company by its
promoters or shareholders in exchange for stock prior to or at the time of
the
company’s initial public offering should normally be recorded at the
transferor’s cost basis determined under GAAP. Malone & Bailey stated their
opinion that the intangible assets were recorded at an estimated fair value
which does not represent the transferor’s cost and that the audited financial
statements as of and for the year ended April 30, 2005 included in GL Energy’s
Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 10, 2006 to announce the merger of the
two companies (GL Energy and American) are misleading and need to be restated.
KBL,
LLP
previously audited American’s financial statements for the period ended April
30, 2005, which period encompassed the transaction which Malone & Bailey
expressed concern above. The intangible assets discussed above by Malone &
Bailey were recorded at the transferor’s cost basis that was reflected on the
transferor’s internal financial statements and corporate income tax returns.
Accordingly, KBL had previously determined the valuation of intangibles as
accurate per their previous audit and applied the Staff’s Guidance under SABT 5G
in applying the transferors cost basis as discussed above.
Other
than the matters discussed above, there have been no “reportable events” as set
forth in Item 304(a)(1)(i-v) of Regulation S-B adopted by the Securities and
Exchange Commission
We
engaged KBL, LLP on August 11, 2006. As stated above, KBL, LLP previously
audited American’s financial statements for the period ended April 30, 2005,
Since the transaction pursuant to which GL Energy acquired American has been
accounted for as a reverse acquisition with American being treated as the
acquirer for accounting purposes, our management and our board determined it
appropriate to engage American’s accountants as our independent auditor. This
engagement was approved by our board of directors. While we did not specifically
consult KBL, LLP regarding any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(2) of
Regulation S-B, KBL LLP has previously audited the valuation of the intangible
assets acquired by American Southwest Music Distribution and agreed with
American’s valuation contained in their audited statements for the period ended
April 30, 2005.
We
disagree with Malone & Bailey’s assessment that the assets were estimated at
fair value. We contend that American used the “Transferor’s Cost Basis” to
determine the value for the subject intangible assets. We discussed this matter
with our Board and with American’s auditor. This matter was fully discussed in
connection with American’s audit for the period ended April 30, 2005.
Accordingly, management does not believe that any statements contained in
American’s audit for the period ended April 30, 2005 (and contained herein) were
misleasding nor do we believe they need to be restated. In addition, we are
continuing discussions with Malone & Bailey and have agreed to provide them
with additional information which we believe will alleviate concerns. We hope
to
resolve this disagreement in the near future in which case an amendment to
this
Current Report on 8-K will be filed disclosing the same.
We
have
provided Malone & Bailey PC with a copy of this disclosure prior to its
filing with the Commission.
