Item 4.01     CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

 

Grant Thornton LLP notified Ciprico Inc. (the “Company”) on August 6, 2008 that it has resigned as the Company’s auditors.  The Company has not engaged a replacement independent registered public accounting firm as of the date of this report and, as a result of limited financial resources, the Company is uncertain as to when it may engage such a replacement firm.

 

During the period of engagement of Grant Thornton, the auditor’s reports issued by them did not contain an adverse opinion, a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  During the engagement period, there were no disagreements between the Company and Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Grant Thornton would have caused them to make a reference to the matter in its reports on the Company’s financial statements, had any such reports been issued.  During the period of engagement, there were no reportable events as the term described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.

 

The Company has provided a copy of the disclosures in this report to Grant Thornton and the letter from the auditors addressed to the SEC confirming the statements made by the Company in this report is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
