Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
 
On February 16, 2009, the practice of Lazar Levine & Felix LLP  (“Lazar”) an independent registered public accounting firm, was acquired by Parente Randolph, LLC (“Parente”) in a transaction pursuant to which Lazar merged its operations into Parente  and certain of the professional staff and partners of Lazar joined Parente either as employees or partners of Parente. On February 16, 2009, and concurrently with the resignation of Lazar, the Company, through and with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, engaged Parente as its independent registered public accounting firm.
 
Prior to engaging Parente, the Company did not consult with Parente regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinions that might be rendered by Parente on the Company’s financial statements, and Parente did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue. The report of independent registered public accounting firm of Lazar regarding the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that, with respect to the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, substantial doubt was raised as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the years ended June 30,2008 and 2007, and during the interim period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through February 16, 2009, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Lazar on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Lazar would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its reports.
 
The Company provided Lazar with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that Lazar furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated February 18, 2009, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
