<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On March&nbsp;16, 2017, the Audit Committee (the &#147;Audit Committee&#148;) of the Board of Directors of Nortech Systems Incorporated (the &#147;Company&#148;) formally approved the engagement of Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP (&#147;Baker Tilly&#148;) as the Company&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December&nbsp;31, 2017. On March&nbsp;16, 2017, the Company informed RSM US LLP (&#147;RSM&#148;) that it was being dismissed as the Company&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The reports of RSM on the Company&#146;s audited consolidated financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2016 and December&nbsp;31, 2015 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Company&#146;s two most recent fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2016 and December&nbsp;31, 2015, and during the subsequent interim period preceding RSM&#146;s dismissal, there were: (i)&nbsp;no disagreements with RSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of RSM would have caused RSM to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports, and (ii)&nbsp;no reportable events of the type listed in paragraphs (A)&nbsp;through (D)&nbsp;of Item 304(a)(1)(v)&nbsp;of Regulation S-K.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company provided RSM with a copy of this Current Report on Form&nbsp;8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) and requested that RSM furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not RSM agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter from RSM dated March&nbsp;20, 2017 is filed with this Current Report on Form&nbsp;8-K as Exhibit&nbsp;16.1.</font></p>
