Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On July 21, 2011, China Integrated Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) engaged Sherb & Co., LLP (“Sherb”) as its independent principal accountant. Sherb replaces KPMG, who resigned on April 26, 2011, as previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on May 2, 2011. The engagement of Sherb was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee.

Sherb was previously engaged as the Company’s independent principal accountant as of and during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009 and for the subsequent interim period ended December 16, 2010. During that time (i) there were no disagreements with Sherb on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to Sherb’s satisfaction, would have caused Sherb to make reference in connection with its opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, and (ii) there were no “reportable events,” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the period commencing December 16, 2010, when KPMG was engaged by the Company as its independent principal accountant, until July 21, 2011 when Sherb was re-engaged in such capacity, the Company did not consult with Sherb regarding (i) 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 consolidated financial statements and no written or oral advice was provided by Sherb that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event, as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On July 25, 2011, the Registrant issued a press release announcing that it appointed Sherb & Co., LLP as its independent principal accountant. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
