Item 4.01—Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On September 19, 2008, Summers, Spencer & Callison, CPAs, Chartered (the “Accountant”), the independent registered public accounting firm for Brooke Capital Corporation (the “Company”), resigned as the Company’s independent accountant. The Accountant was the auditor of the financial statements for the fiscal years of the Company ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

The Company’s management represents as follows:

(a) The Accountant’s report on the financial statements of the Company for each of the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

(b) During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with the Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the Accountant would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports.

(c) During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided the Accountant with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this report and has requested that the Accountant furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company.

The Company is now beginning the process of seeking and engaging a successor accountant and no successor accountant has been selected or engaged.

Item 5.02—Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

On September 23, 2008, Michael Hess, President of the Company, was terminated from his position effective immediately.
