Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit reports of CKP on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 and the subsequent interim period through the effective date of CKP’s dismissal, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and CKP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CKP, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such fiscal years and (ii) there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided a copy of the foregoing disclosure to CKP and requested that CKP furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether CKP agrees with the above statements, as required by Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K. A copy of CKP’s letter, dated October 4, 2024, is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the subsequent interim period through the effective date of UHY’s engagement, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company, consulted with UHY with respect to either (i) the 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 consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided by UHY to the Company that UHY concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue or (ii) any matter that was the subject of either a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
