On July 28, 2006, Kevane Soto Pasarell Grant Thornton LLP ("Kevane") advised us that it is resigning as our independent registered accounting firm as of the completion of the third quarter interim review. Kevane was the independent accountant for Plaza Consulting Group, Inc. ("Plaza") for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2005 and 2004. Kevane's report for these periods did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Plaza was acquired by Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. (the "Registrant") on January 25, 2006. During the two most recent fiscal years (for Plaza) and any subsequent interim period (for the Registrant) through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Kevane 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 Kevane, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports.
