Form 8-K for COMM BANCORP INC

Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant, Financial Statements and Exhibits


Item 4.01 Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

On October 1, 2009, Comm Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was notified that the audit practice firm of Beard Miller Company LLP ("Beard") its independent registered public accounting firm, was combined with ParenteBeard LLC in a transaction pursuant to which Beard combined its operations with ParenteBeard
LLC. Certain of the professional staff and partners of Beard joined ParenteBeard LLC either as employees or partners. On October 1, 2009, Beard resigned as the auditors of the Company and with the approval of the Joint Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, ParenteBeard LLC was engaged as its independent registered public accounting firm.

Prior to engaging ParenteBeard LLC, the Company did not consult with ParenteBeard LLC regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinions that might be rendered by ParenteBeard LLC on the Company's consolidated financial statements, and ParenteBeard LLC did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.

The report of independent registered public accounting firm of Beard regarding the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, did not contain any adverse or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and during the interim period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through October 1, 2009, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Beard 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 Beard would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its reports.

The Company provided Beard with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that Beard furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated October 2, 2009, is filed as Exhibit 16.1, which is incorporated by reference herein to this Current Report on Form 8-K.



Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits

(d) Exhibits.

16.1 Letter dated October 2, 2009, from Beard Miller Company LLP, addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
