Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On June 13, 2016 mPhase Technologies, Inc. received a notice of resignation of its outside auditors Bchbiner, Tunick & Company LLP. The Company has been in negotiations with the auditors through June 17, 2016 in an attempt to resolve this matter. Unfortunately the Company has been unsuccessful in securing additional funds to pay the auditors. The reason for the auditor’s resignation was the inability of the Company to pay certain fees owed in connection with prior Form 10K and 10Q filings to maintain the audiitor’s independence.
