Item 4.01                      Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

The Board of Directors of The Graystone Company  (the "Company"), acting as the Company’s Audit Committee, annually considers the selection of independent public accountants. On February 15, 2013 after an evaluation process, the Board of Directors appointed Goldman Accounting Services, PLLC, Certified Public Accountants as Graystone's independent auditors for the 2012 fiscal year, replacing Sam Kan & Company. Goldman Accounting Services, PLLC address is 5 Victory Road, Suffen, NY 10901.
 
This action effectively dismisses Sam Kan & Company as the Company's independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.  The report of Sam Kan & Company on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the Nine months ending  ended December 31, 2011 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.  For the years ended December 31, 2011 and through the date of this Form 8-K, there have been no disagreements with Sam Kan & Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to Sam Kan & Company’s satisfaction would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports.  For the years ended December 31, 2010 and through the date of this Form 8-K, there were no "reportable events" as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
The Company has provided Sam Kan & Company with a copy of this form 8-K and the Company has requested that Sam Kan & Company furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements above.  A copy of the letter will be attached as an exhibit to an amendment once the Company receives it from Sam Kan & Company.
 
For the year ended December 31, 2011 and through the date of this form 8-K, neither the Company nor anyone acting on the Company's behalf consulted Goldman Accounting Services with respect to 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 consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.  Goldman Accounting Services has been asked to review this disclosure and Goldman Accounting Services has been provided an opportunity to furnish a letter to the SEC containing any new information, clarification, or disagreement with the statements made herein.

 
 
 
 
 Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
