Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On May 4, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Board of Managers of TriLinc Global Impact Fund, LLC (the “Company”) received a letter from BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) stating that BDO would resign as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022. On May 10, 2022, the Audit Committee voted unanimously to accept BDO’s resignation. The Company is currently in the process of selecting a successor independent registered public accounting firm and will disclose its engagement of a new independent registered public accounting firm once the selection process has been completed, as required by the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

The reports of BDO on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the subsequent interim period through May 4, 2022, there were no “disagreements” (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference thereto in its reports.  Also during this same period, there were no “reportable events” (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) that occurred or were identified.

 

The Company provided BDO with the disclosure under Item 4.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to filing it with the SEC and requested BDO to furnish to the Company a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made in this Item 4.01. A copy of BDO’s letter, dated May 9, 2022, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
