SECTION 4 - MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Item 4.01.            Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(b)            New independent registered public accounting firm

On October 4, 2013, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of First China Pharmaceutical Group, Inc. (the “Company”) engaged Marcum Bernstein & Pinchuk LLP (the “New Accountant”) as its independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements for the Company’s current fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The New Accountant will now complete its onsite due diligence before formally accepting the engagement. The due diligence is expected to be completed before the end of October 2013.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the interim period preceding the engagement of the New Accountant, the Company (a) has not engaged the New Accountant as either the principal accountant to audit the Company’s financial statements, or as an independent accountant to audit a significant subsidiary of the Company and on whom the principal accountant is expected to express reliance in its report; and (b) has not consulted with the New Accountant regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by the New Accountant concluding there was an important factor to be considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or a reportable event, as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
