The appointment of YCM was made after careful consideration and evaluation process by the Company and was approved by the board of directors of the Company on July 20, 2022.

On July 21, 2022, the Company provided Friedman with a copy of this Current Report on Form 6-K and requested that Friedman furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statement. A copy of Friedman’s letter is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim periods prior to the engagement of YCM, neither the Company, nor someone on behalf of the Company, has consulted YCM regarding either (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that YCM concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (b) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement as defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form 20-F and related instructions to Item 16F of Form 20-F, or any reportable events as described in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.
