Item 4.01   Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
     On October 27, 2008, QuikByte Software, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), dismissed Jaspers + Hall, PC (“Jaspers”), as its independent registered certified public accounting firm after the Company learned that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board had revoked the registration of Jaspers. The dismissal of Jaspers was made upon the recommendation and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. Neither of Jaspers’ reports on the Company’s financial statements for each of the past two fiscal years, ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, contained any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of an opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that (i) Jaspers’ report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 noted that the Company’s accumulated deficit from operations and its difficulties in maintaining sufficient working capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern and (ii) Jaspers’ report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 noted that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern was dependant upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. During the period beginning January 1, 2006 through the date of dismissal, the Company has not had any disagreements with Jaspers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
     On October 27, 2008, the Company appointed Pender Newkirk & Company LLP (“PNC”) as its independent registered certified public accounting firm. During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2008 through October 27, 2008, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with PNC regarding either (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 or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K), or a reportable event (as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
     The Company has provided Jaspers with a copy of the foregoing disclosures in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K, which are set forth in this Item 4.01, and has requested Jaspers to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) stating whether it agrees with the statements contained in this Item 4.01. A copy of Jaspers’ letter to the Commission, dated October 28, 2008, is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
