On May 30, 2013, Anderson Bradshaw PLLC (“Anderson Bradshaw”) resigned as Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm.

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, Anderson Bradshaw’s reports on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the subsequent interim period through May 30, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Anderson Bradshaw on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Anderson Bradshaw would have caused Anderson Bradshaw to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and  (ii) there were no reportable events as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K except that Anderson Bradshaw stated that its resignation was a result of a limitation on the scope of its work imposed on it by the Company.

On June 4, 2013, the Company provided Anderson Bradshaw with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that Anderson Bradshaw furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.  A copy of the letter, dated June 4, 2013, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
