4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed
by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim
Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations
to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with a company have been prevented or detected on a timely
basis. Even disclosure controls and procedures determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance that their objectives
are achieved.
As of March 31, 2024, we carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e))
pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective at a reasonable assurance level.
Our size has prevented us from being able to employ
sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties. Therefore, it is difficult to effectively
segregate accounting duties which comprise a material weakness in internal controls. This lack of segregation of duties leads management
to conclude that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to give reasonable assurance that the information
required to be disclosed in reports that the Company files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and
when required.
To
the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses, including,
but not limited to, increasing the capacity of our qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are
consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over our Exchange Act reporting disclosures.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes in our internal control procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the
Exchange Act) during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
