Section 4

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

On July 29, 2013, Power REIT (the "Company") dismissed Gibbons
& Kawash, A.C. ("G&K") as the Company's independent registered
public accounting firm, which dismissal was approved by the
Company's Board of Trustees on July 29, 2013. The dismissal
was due to the engagement of BDO USA, LLP as the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, G&K's
reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements did
not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were
not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31,
2011 and the subsequent interim period through July 29, 2013, (i)
there were no disagreements between the Company and G&K on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved
to the satisfaction of G&K would have caused G&K to make reference
to the subject matter of the disagreement with its reports on the
Company's consolidated financial statements; and (ii) there were
no reportable events as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304
of Regulation S-K.

On July 29, 2013, the Company provided G&K with a copy of the
disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K,
and requested G&K furnish it with a letter addressed to the
Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with
the above statements.  A copy of the letter, dated July 30, 2013, is
filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to
this Current Report on Form 8-K.

On July 29, 2013, the Company's Board of Trustees approved the
engagement of BDO USA LLP ("BDO")as its independent registered public
accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the
subsequent interim period through July 29, 2013, the date of engagement
of BDO, the Company did not consult with BDO regarding either (i)
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 financial statements; or (ii) any matter that
was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph
(a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and the related instructions
thereto) or a "reportable event" (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of
Item 304 of Regulation S-K).

BDO did provide and continues to provide tax services to the Company and
its subsidiaries, including preparation of the federal and state tax
returns for years ending December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.   The
Company's audit committee has pre-approved the tax services that
BDO provides the Company pursuant to applicable SEC independence rules.
