Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company
in the reports that it files or submits under the 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 by a company in the reports that it files or submits
under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and
principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that
any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their
objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2020.
Attestation
Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
Our
independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls
over financial reporting for as long as we are an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
CEO and our CFO are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term
is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, management used the criteria described in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our management
concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective based on those criteria, as of December 31, 2020.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During
2020, we engaged qualified accounting consultants to remediate the risks related to inadequate segregation of duties.
