Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On March 30, 2023, Spruce Power Holding Corporation (the “Company”) dismissed Marcum LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm, subject to the completion of Deloitte’s customary client acceptance procedures. The decision to dismiss Marcum and to retain Deloitte was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee.

Marcum’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through March 30, 2023 , there were no disagreements with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Marcum’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of SEC Regulation S-K, except that Marcum concurred with the Company’s assessment of material weaknesses related to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

The Company has provided Marcum with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that Marcum review such disclosures and provide a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission as specified by Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K. As of the filing of this Form 8-K, Marcum has not furnished any such letter. The Company will file an amendment to this Form 8-K promptly after it receives any such letter.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the subsequent interim period through March 30, 2023, the Company did not consult with Deloitte regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
