Item
4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying
Accountant.
On June
15, 2021, the registrant (“Mymetics” or the
“Company”), through and with the approval of its Audit
Committee, appointed Fruci & Associates II, PLLC (“Fruci
& Associates”) to replace BDO USA, LLP ("BDO") as its
independent registered public accounting firm following BDO
informing the Company that BDO had increased its fees to audit and
review the Company’s financial statements.
BDO’s reports
on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, contained an
explanatory paragraph that raises substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Other than
the going concern matter, the reports of BDO on the financial
statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31,
2020 and 2019, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles.
During
the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,
and through June 15, 2021, there were no disagreements between the
Company and BDO on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction
of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit reports on
the Company’s financial statements. During the
Company’s past fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,
and the interim period through March 31, 2021, BDO did not advise
the Company of any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K.
The
Company provided BDO with a copy of this report on Form 8-K in
accordance with Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K prior to its filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that BDO
furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and
Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above
statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does
not agree. A copy of the letter from BDO is filed as Exhibit 16.1
hereto.
During
the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years and
through the date of engagement of Fruci & Associates, neither
the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company consulted with
Fruci & Associates regarding (a) 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 financial statements as to which the Company
received a written report or oral advice that was an important
factor in reaching a decision on any accounting, auditing or
financial reporting issue; or (b) any matter that was the subject
of a disagreement or a reportable event as defined in Items
304(a)(1)(iv) and (v), respectively, of Regulation
S-K.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d)

16.1 Letter from BDO USA, LLP dated June 17, 2021
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant
has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
