Item 4.01 Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a) UHY LLP ("UHY"), our independent registered public accounting
firm, informed us on April 19, 2010 that effective April 16,
2010, its New England practice was acquired by Marcum LLP. UHY
also informed us that, as a result of this transaction, it
declines reappointment as our independent registered public
accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.
The audit report of UHY on our financial statements for the
years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 did not contain an
adverse opinion, or a disclaimer of opinion, or qualification or
modification as to any uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles, except for a modification for a going concern
uncertainty.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and
subsequently to April 16, 2010, there were no disagreements with
UHY on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure
that, if not resolved to UHY's satisfaction, would have caused
UHY to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement
in connection with its audit reports nor were there any
"reportable events" (as that term is described in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
UHY has issued a letter dated April 20, 2010 addressed to the
Securities and Exchange Commission stating that UHY agrees with
the above statements. That letter is included as Exhibit 16.1
to this report.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits
(d) Exhibits.
16.1 Letter from UHY LLP dated April 20, 2010 to the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
