Explanatory Note: China Shenghuo Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 26, 2009, including an Exhibit 16.1. The Company is filing an amendment to the August 26 Form 8-K to (i) specify the manner in which the Company’s relationship with Hansen, Barnett & Maxwell, P.C., the Company’s former independent accountant (“HBM”), ended; (ii) clarify that there were no disagreements with HBM for the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent period through August 26, 2009 and (iii) include an updated letter from HBM. The updated version of Exhibit 16.1 attached hereto supersedes the Exhibit 16.1 filed with the August 26 Form 8-K in its entirety.

Item 4.01.      Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

As a result of a competitive request for proposal, China Shenghuo Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) decided to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from Hansen, Barnett & Maxwell, P.C. (“HBM”) to Bernstein & Pinchuk LLP (“B&P”), an Independent Member of the BDO Seidman Alliance with offices in New York City, Beijing and Guangzhou. On August 26, 2009, as previously recommended by the Audit Committee and as authorized by the Board of Directors, the Company signed an engagement letter with B&P to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and to review the Company’s financial statements for the periods ending September 30, 2009 and audit the Company’s financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009. This action effectively dismissed HBM on this date as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The reports of HBM on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, with the exception of the separate paragraph in the independent audit report by HBM for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 stating:

“As discussed in Note 1, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated the accompanying 2007 consolidated financial statements.”

The inclusion of this statement in the independent audit report was the result of an internal investigation conducted by the Company as previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 22, 2008 and on Form 8-K/A filed with the Commission on September 12, 2008.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the subsequent interim period through August 26, 2009, there have been no disagreements with HBM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of HBM would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on the financial statements for such years and any interim periods. Further, there have been no reportable events as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years preceding the date of this filing.



The Company was not required to file with its annual report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, and has not obtained an attestation report from HBM on its internal controls over financial reporting as of any date through the date of this filing.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the subsequent interim period through August 26, 2009, neither the Company, nor anyone acting on its behalf, consulted with B&P with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that would have been rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or any matters that were either the subject of a disagreement (as that term is used in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The Company provided HBM with a copy of the foregoing disclosures on this Form 8-K and requested that HBM furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements, and if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The Company has received the requested letter from HBM stating that it does agree, and a copy is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
