Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On March 18, 2013, the Audit Committee of the Board of Managers of Constellation Energy Partners LLC (the “Company”), approved the appointment of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013, and approved the dismissal of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as its auditors. The Company formally notified PwC of its dismissal on March 18, 2013.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, PwC’s reports on the Company’s financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

The Company and PwC have not, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the subsequent period through March 18, 2013, had any disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC, would have caused PwC to make reference to the matter in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years; and there were no “reportable events” as the term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has requested PwC furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not PwC agrees with the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of such letter dated March 21, 2013, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

At no time during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent period through March 18, 2013, did the Company, or anyone on its behalf, consult with KPMG regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements and neither a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that KPMG concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue nor was KPMG consulted on any other matters or reportable events described under Item 304(a)(2)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
