Item 4.01.  Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
 
Mantyla McReynolds, LLC (“Mantyla”), the Company’s independent registered public accountants, merged with BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) on July 1, 2016.  As a result of this transaction, on July 21, 2016, Sundance Strategies, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice that instead of Mantyla, BDO would now stand for appointment as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.  Effective July 26, 2016, the Company, after review and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, appointed BDO as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm for and with respect to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.
 
Mantyla’s reports on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, did not contain any other 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 March 31, 2016 and 2015, and through July 21, 2016, there were no disagreements between the Company and Mantyla 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 Mantyla, would have caused Mantyla 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 March 31, 2016 and 2015 and the interim period through July 21, 2016, Mantyla did not advise the Company of any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
The Company provided Mantyla 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 Mantyla 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 Mantyla is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
 
During the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years and through the date of engagement of BDO, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company consulted with BDO  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.
