Previous independent auditor
 
On April 15, 2014, Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (“we,” “our” or the “Company”) reported that Anton & Chia, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, had informed the Company that Anton & Chia had resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
