ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal
executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations
to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention
or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable
assurance of achieving their control objectives.
In connection with the
preparation of the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which
are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under
the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial
officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on this evaluation,
management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2022 due to the significant
deficiencies which aggregate to a material weakness and was previously reported in our Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31,
2021 (“2021 10-K”), that have not yet been remediated.
Changes in Internal
Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes
in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
