Controls and Procedures
We
carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the quarter covered in this report, our disclosure controls
and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time and is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.
Material
Weaknesses
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
Auditing Standard AS 2201, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We had the following
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, characterized by the following:
● We
have not designed written policies and procedures at a sufficient level of precision to support
the operating effectiveness of the controls to prevent and timely detect potential errors.
● We
did not maintain adequate documentation to evidence the operating effectiveness of certain
control activities.
● We
did not maintain appropriate access to certain systems and did not maintain appropriate segregation
of duties related to processes associated with those systems.
To
address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated
financial statements included in our periodic reports filed with the SEC are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
