EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 6, 2009 to supplement the disclosure included under Item 4.01 thereof.

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On October 2, 2009, SORL Auto Parts, Inc. (“the Company”) received notice that its current auditors, Rotenberg & Co. LLP, had resigned in connection with their merger with EFP Group.  The Company has engaged the new firm resulting from the merger, EFP Rotenberg, LLP, to continue as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.  All of the partners and employees of Rotenberg & Co. LLP and EFP Group have joined the new firm, EFP Rotenberg, LLP.

The reports of Rotenberg & Co. LLP as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and subsequent interim period preceding the resignation of Rotenberg & Co. LLP did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.  During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding the resignation of Rotenberg & Co. LLP, there were no disagreements with Rotenberg & Co. LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Rotenberg & Co. LLP would have caused it to make reference to such disagreements in its reports.

On October 30, 2009, with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, EFP Rotenberg, LLP was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accountant effective concurrent with the merger.  Prior to such engagement, during the two most recent fiscal years, the Company has not consulted with EFP Rotenberg, LLP on any matter.

The Company provided Rotenberg & Co. LLP with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“ SEC” ) and requested that Rotenberg & Co. LLP furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 16.1 herewith.
