Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Departure of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm
The financial statements of ECD
Automotive Design, Inc. (the “Company”) for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were audited by BF Borgers CPA,
PC (“Borgers”). On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) announced that it had settled
charges against Borgers that it failed to conduct audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(the “PCAOB”). As part of the settlement, Borgers agreed to a permanent ban on appearing or practicing before the SEC. Based
upon the fact that Borgers was permanently banned on appearing or practicing before the SEC, on May 9, 2024, the Company dismissed Borgers
as its independent accountant. The decision to dismiss Borgers as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was
approved by the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors.
Borgers’ reports on the
Company’s financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion,
nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Company’s two most recent
fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through May 3, 2024, there were no disagreements, within
the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, with Borgers 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 Borgers, would have caused it
to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports. Also during this same period, there were
no reportable events that existed within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto.
Due to the fact that BF Borgers
is not currently permitted to appear or practice before the SEC, we have not furnished the disclosures in this current report with our
former auditor nor requested that our former auditor provide a letter stating whether it agrees with the disclosures in this current report.
(b) Engagement of New
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 10, 2024, upon the approval
of the audit committee, of the Company’s board of directors, the Company engaged Barton CPA as the Company's independent registered
public accounting firm to audit the Financial Statements, effective immediately.
Neither the Company nor anyone
acting on its behalf consulted with Barton CPA regarding either (i) 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 consolidated financial statements and
neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company by Barton CPA that Barton CPA concluded was an important factor considered
by the Company in reaching a decision as to such 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 and the
related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
