ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
     On November 2, 2005, Butler International, Inc. (“Butler”) retained Grant Thornton LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. Grant Thornton LLP replaces Deloitte & Touche LLP, who resigned on September 8, 2005. The resignation of Deloitte & Touche LLP was reported on Butler’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 13, 2005. The decision to retain Grant Thornton LLP was made by the Audit Committee of Butler’s Board of Directors.
     During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the subsequent interim period preceding the date of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP: (1) Butler did not consult with Grant Thornton LLP regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Butler’s financial statements; and (2) Butler did not consult with Grant Thornton LLP regarding any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
