Item 4.01

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On ~~January~~December 20, 2012, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~Rotenberg CFLLP (~~HK) CPA Limited (~~“~~Parker Randall~~EFP”) as our independent auditor, effective immediately.

~~Parker Randall~~EFP’s ~~reports~~report on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal ~~years~~year ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 ~~and 2009~~ did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal ~~years~~year ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2009 and~~ through ~~Parker Randall~~EFP’s dismissal on ~~January~~December 20, 2012, there were (1) no disagreements with ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~ 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 ~~Parker Randall~~EFP, would have caused ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~ to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports, and (2) no events of the type listed in paragraphs (A) through (D) of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except that in 2012 our Board of Directors discussed with EFP the existence of a material weakness in Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2011, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2012, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2012, each filed on November 15, 2012, May 17, 2012, August 14, 2012 and November 14, 2012 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We furnished ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~ with a copy of this disclosure on ~~January~~December 20, 2012, providing ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~ with the opportunity to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by us herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and, if not, stating the respect in which it does not agree. We have ~~not~~ received ~~any~~the ~~response~~requested letter from ~~Parker~~EFP, ~~Randall~~and asa copy of ~~January~~such ~~26,~~letter ~~2012~~is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.

Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Concurrent with the decision to dismiss ~~Parker~~EFP ~~Randall~~ as our independent auditor, the Board of Directors appointed ~~EFP~~UHY ~~Rotenberg~~ LLP (“~~EFP~~UHY”) as our independent auditor.

During the years ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2009~~2010 and through the date hereof, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted ~~EFP~~UHY with respect to (i) 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 Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that ~~EFP~~UHY concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v), respectively, of Regulation S-K.
