CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

−Removed: and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

−Removed: Even disclosure controls and procedures determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance that their objectives

−Removed: employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties.
−Removed: Therefore, it is difficult
−Removed: to effectively segregate accounting duties which comprise a material weakness in internal controls.
−Removed: We also lack effective board oversight
−Removed: and formal accounting controls for the timely and accurate closing of financial information.
−Removed: Management has taken several steps intended to strengthen our financial reporting oversight and address the identified weakness.
−Removed: 2025, we appointed a President with a strong background in finance and risk oversight to enhance executive-level supervision of our financial
−Removed: reporting processes.
−Removed: We also appointed a new director with audit committee and financial oversight experience to improve board-level review
−Removed: and governance.
−Removed: In addition, we continue to evaluate further measures, including supplementing our accounting resources and enhancing
−Removed: the consistency and documentation of our accounting policies and reporting procedures.
−Removed: Although these actions represent progress, the
−Removed: material weakness has not yet been remediated, and we will continue to implement improvements designed to achieve effective internal control
−Removed: over financial reporting.
−Removed: Changes in Internal Control over Financial
−Removed: There have been no changes in our internal control
−Removed: procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our nine months ended September
