Item 4.01               Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On May 14, 2009, CMR Mortgage Fund II, LLC (the “Fund”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting the receipt of notice of cessation of client-auditor relationship from independent registered public accounting firm Perry-Smith LLP. This amendment provides additional information and clarification.

 

1.               As of April 13, 2009, Perry-Smith LLP resigned as independent registered public accounting firm for CMR Mortgage Fund II, LLC. [Response to paragraph 3 of SEC comment letter on original 8-K]

 

2.               Notwithstanding the statement in the May 14, 2009 Current Report that ‘The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm included in the Fund’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, with respect to the financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the years then ended expressed “substantial doubt about the Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern”‘, with respect to the financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and for the years then ended, there were no (1) adverse opinions, (2) disclaimers of opinion, (3) qualifications or modifications as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. [Response to paragraph 4 of SEC comment letter on original 8-K]

 

3.               During the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and the subsequent interim period through April 13, 2009, there were no disagreements with Perry-Smith 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 Perry-Smith LLP would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. [Response to paragraph 5 of SEC comment letter on original 8-K]

 

A copy of this disclosure has been provided to Perry-Smith LLP and their response is attached as Exhibit 16.
