Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On June 21, 2023, Fruci & Associates II, PLLC, Auditors (“Fruci”) resigned as the independent registered accounting firm of Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”). The resignation was accepted by the Board of Directors of the Company on June 21, 2023.

 

Fruci’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such reports expressed substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Furthermore, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through June 21, 2023, there have been no disagreements with Fruci on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Fruci’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.

 

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and through June 21, 2023, there were no “reportable events” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company provided Fruci with a copy of the disclosure contained herein, prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and requested that Fruci furnish the Company a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether or not it agreed with the statements herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. Fruci’s letter to the Commission is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
