EXPLANATORY NOTE
Piedmont Community Bank Group, Inc. (the Company) is filing this amendment to its Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed on October 3, 2008 at the request of the staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the SEC) to add disclosure clarifying that none of the kinds of events listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A) through (D) of the SECs Regulation S-K have occurred during the time periods specified therein and
that the Company has not consulted its new independent accountant regarding any of the matters listed in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K within the time periods specified therein. Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, this amendment sets forth the complete text of each item as amended.
Item 4.01
.
|
Change in Registrants Certifying Accountant
.
|
Effective October 1, 2008 Piedmont Community Bank Group, Inc. (the Company) dismissed Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm and engaged McNair, McLemore,
Middlebrooks & Co., LLP to serve as the Companys replacement independent registered public accounting firm. This change was recommended and approved by the Companys Audit Committee.
The dismissal of Mauldin & Jenkins was not the result of any disagreement on any matter of accounting principals or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Mauldin & Jenkins satisfaction, would have caused it to make a reference to the matter in its reports on the Companys consolidated
financial statements for such periods. There have been no such disagreements during the term of Mauldin & Jenkins engagement, which began in 2001. Rather, the decision was made in light of the pending marriage of the Companys
controller, Holli Cox, to the brother of a Mauldin & Jenkins partner. Under these circumstances, the Company and Mauldin & Jenkins mutually agreed that a change in the Companys independent registered public accounting firm
was appropriate to avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest. Mauldin & Jenkins reports on the Companys consolidated financial statements for the last two years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion,
and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principals.
None of the events listed in
Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A) through (D) of the SECs Regulation S-K occurred within the Companys two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding the dismissal of Mauldin & Jenkins. The Company has not
consulted with McNair, McLemore, Middlebrooks & Co., LLP, its replacement independent registered public accounting firm, with respect to any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) or the SECs regulation S-K
within the Companys two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period prior to the engagement of McNair, McLemore, Middlebrooks & Co., LLP.
The Company provided Mauldin & Jenkins with a copy of the disclosures in Item 4.01 of this Report and requested that Mauldin & Jenkins furnish the Company with a letter to the Securities and
Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with such disclosures and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of that letter from Mauldin & Jenkins, which is dated October 2, 2008, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 8.01
.
|
Other Events
.
|
The Company has recently
received inquiries regarding its credit exposure to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Company does not hold any securities issued by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Therefore, the recent government takeover of these institutions has had no impact on the
Companys financial condition.
