Item
4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a)
Change of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On
June 29, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved replacing Turner, Stone & Company, LLP (the
“Former Accountant”) as our independent registered public accounting firm, with Grassi & Co. CPAs, P.C. (the “New
Accountant”) as our independent registered public accounting firm, effective July 1, 2022. The engagement of the New Accountant
was recommended and approved by the Board.
The
Former Accountant’s audit report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained no adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The audit report
of Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C. (the “Previous Accountant”) on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 contained
no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
For
the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the interim period ending June 30, 2022, there were no “disagreements” (as
such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with the Former Accountant or the Previous Accountant 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 the Former Accountant or Previous Accountant, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the
financial statements for such periods.
For
the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the interim period ending June 30, 2022, there were the following “reportable events”
(as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K): as disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the
year ended December 31, 2021, the Former Accountant advised the Company that the internal controls necessary for the Company to develop
reliable financial statements for such period did not exist; and as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated
December 3, 2021, the Previous Accountant advised the Company that the internal controls necessary for the Company to develop reliable
financial statements for such period did not exist. Other than such reportable events, there were no other reportable events for the
years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the interim period ending June 30, 2022.
The
Company’s internal controls have not been fully remediated as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Our Board discussed
the subject matter of the reportable event with the Former Accountant and the Previous Accountant. We authorized the Former Accountant
and the Previous Accountant to respond fully and without limitation to all requests of the New Accountant concerning all matters related
to the audited periods by the Former Accountant and the Previous Accountant, including with respect to the subject matter of each reportable
event.
Prior
to retaining the New Accountant, the Company did not consult with the New Accountant regarding either: (i) the application of accounting
principles to a specified transaction, either contemplated or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s
financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event” (as
those terms are defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K).
On
November 14, 2022, the Company provided the Former Accountant with its disclosures in the Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing
the dismissal of the Former Accountant and requested in writing that the Former Accountant furnish the Company with a letter addressed
to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with such disclosures. The Former Accountant’s response
is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
