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 Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) 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 this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, carried out an evaluation, as of March 31, 2026, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term
is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation, management concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026 due to the material weaknesses related to the lack
of segregation of duties resulting from our small size and inability to perform an effective test of the operating effectiveness of the
controls, including the oversight of our financial statement close process that was previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, that have not yet been remediated.
Management’s plan to remediate these material
weaknesses is described in detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting .
