Item 4.01

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On May 19, 2006, the registrant engaged Jewett, Schwartz & Associates (“Jewett”) to serve as the registrant’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. Also on that date, Bongiovanni & Associates, P.A. (“Bongiovanni”) was dismissed as the registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm. The registrant decided to engage Jewett as its experience was more closely aligned with the registrant’s future business operations. The registrant’s board of directors approved both actions.

 

The audit report of Bongiovanni on the financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and for the two years then ended contained a separate paragraph stating: “The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses and has yet to generate an internal cash flow that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note G. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.” There were no other adverse opinions, disclaimers of opinions, or qualifications or modifications as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through May 19, 2006, there were no disagreements with Bongiovanni on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Bongiovanni, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. The registrant has requested Bongiovanni to furnish it a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter is being filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.

 

There were no other “reportable events” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B occurring within the registrant’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period ending May 19, 2006.

 

During the registrant’s two most recent fiscal years and through May 19, 2006, the date prior to the engagement of Jewett, neither the registrant nor anyone on its behalf consulted Jewett regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the registrant’s consolidated financial statements.
