+Added: our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness

Control Over Financial Reporting
−Removed: the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
−Removed: materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange
−Removed: Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
+Added: Our management is responsible for
+Added: establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: “Internal control over financial reporting,”
+Added: as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, means a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
+Added: of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
+Added: Our management, with
+Added: the participation and supervision of our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, assessed the
+Added: effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: In making this assessment, our management
+Added: used the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) as issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
+Added: of the Treadway Commission.
+Added: Based on this assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was
+Added: effective as of December 31, 2024.
+Added: This Annual Report does not include

+Added: of Controls and Procedures
+Added: In designing and evaluating
+Added: our controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide
+Added: only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
+Added: In assessing whether our disclosure controls and
+Added: procedures were effective at a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating
+Added: the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
+Added: There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of
+Added: controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.
+Added: In addition, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and
+Added: there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
+Added: controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
+Added: Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
