ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures .
We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our
Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective
to ensure that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting for the following reasons:
·
Due to our small number of employees and limited resources, we have limited segregation of duties, as a result of which there is insufficient independent review of duties performed.
·
As a result of a lack of qualified accounting personnel, we rely on outside consultants for the preparation of our financial reports, including financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis, which could lead to overlooking items requiring disclosure.
·
Difficulty applying complex accounting principles.
We will continue
to monitor our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing
additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. We do not, however, expect that the material weaknesses in our
disclosure controls will be remediated until such time as we have added additional personnel, including additional accounting and administrative
staff, allowing improved internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting .
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
