Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On November 22, 2022, the Board of Directors of Grapefruit USA, Inc. (“Company”) received a formal notice of resignation from its independent auditors, L&L CPAs, PA (“L&L”), effective as of such date, because L&L has ceased offering public company audit services. L&L’s decision to withdraw from the PCAOB is unrelated to any past or current enforcement action against L&L.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and through November 22, 2022, the date of L&L’s resignation, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with L&L on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of L&L, would have caused L&L to make reference to the matter in its report on the financial statements for such year.

The Company provided L&L a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and requested that L&L furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements in Item 4.01. A copy of L&L’s letter, dated December 21, 2022, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The Company is actively engaging new independent registered public accounting firms.
