ITEM 4.01
CHANGES IN REGISTRANTS CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
(a) On August 8, 2011, upon the authorization and approval of its board of directors, Asia8, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed Konstandinos Jerry Georgatos, Certified Public Accountant (“Georgatos”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.
The report of Georgatos on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
Between August 9, 2009 (the date of engagement) and August 8, 2011 (the date of dismissal) there were no disagreements with Georgatos 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 Georgatos, would have caused Georgatos to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
The Company has requested that Georgatos furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated August 8, 2011, is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.
(b) On August 8, 2011, upon the authorization and approval of the board of directors, the Company engaged Pinaki & Associates LLC (“Pinaki”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.
No consultations occurred between the Company and Pinaki during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and through August 8, 2011, regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or other information provided that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was the subject of disagreement requiring disclosure under Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or reportable event requiring disclosure under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
