EXPLANATORY NOTE: Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. hereby amends its Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 11, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 16, 2011 (the "Original Form 8-K"), to amend Item 4.01 to (i) revise the references in the second paragraph that relate to the report of Sherb to the reports of Sherb and (ii) include an updated Exhibit 16.1. This amendment does not reflect events occurring after the Original Form 8-K, except as related to any amended disclosures, nor does it modify or update the disclosures and information contained in the Original Form 8-K in any way other than described in this paragraph.
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On August 11, 2011, the board of directors of Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Sherb & Co. LLP (“Sherb”) as the independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiaries.
Sherb’s reports on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 contained an explanatory paragraph indicating that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Other than such statement, no reports of Sherb on the financial statements of the Company for either of the past two years and through August 11, 2011contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through August 11, 2011: (i) there have been no disagreements with Sherb 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 Sherb, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) Sherb did not advise the Company of any of the events requiring reporting in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided to Sherb the disclosure contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested Sherb to furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
On August 11, 2011, the board of directors of the Company ratified and approved the Company's engagement of Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company LLP (“RSSMC”) as independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiaries.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and through August 11, 2011, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted RSSMC regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K (there being none).
