Item
9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
Effective
September 1, 2022, Friedman LLP (“Friedman”), our then independent registered public accounting firm, combined with Marcum
LLP and continued to operate as an independent registered public accounting firm. On November 22, 2022, approved by the Company’s
board of directors, we engaged Marcum Asia CPAs LLP (“Marcum Asia”) to serve as our independent registered public accounting
firm. The services previously provided by Friedman are now provided by Marcum Asia.
Pursuant
to applicable rules, the Company makes the following additional disclosures:
(a)
During the period from December 31, 2021 through November 22, 2022 there were no disagreements with Friedman on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which if not resolved to Friedman’s
satisfaction would have caused it to make reference thereto in connection with its reports on the financial statements for such year.
During the period from December 31, 2021 through November 22, 2022 other than the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting, there were no events of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
(b)
During the period from December 31, 2021 through November 22, 2022 the Company did not consult with Marcum Asia with respect to any
matter whatsoever including without limitation with respect to any of (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction,
either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (iii)
any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or an event of the type
described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
