1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for interim statements and, therefore, do not include all information and disclosures necessary for fair presentation of results of operations, financial position, and changes in cash flow in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, such statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the period presented.

The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with its December 31, ~~2007~~2008 audited financial statements included in the ~~Company's~~Company’s Annual Report on Form ~~10-KSB,~~10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, ~~2007.~~2008. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ~~ended~~ending December 31, ~~2008.~~ 2009.

Nature of Business

American Church Mortgage Company, a Minnesota corporation, was incorporated on May 27, 1994. The Company was organized to engage primarily in the business of making mortgage loans to churches and other nonprofit religious organizations throughout the United States, on terms established for individual organizations.

Accounting Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most sensitive estimates relate to the ~~allowance for~~realizability of the mortgage loans ~~real estate held for sale~~receivable and the valuation of the bond ~~portfolio.~~portfolio and real estate held for sale. It is at least reasonably possible that these estimates could change in the near term and that the effect of the change, if any, may be material to the financial statements.

Cash and Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company maintains accounts primarily at two financial institutions. At times throughout the year, the ~~Company's~~Company’s cash and equivalents balances may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Cash in money market funds is not ~~Federally~~federally insured. ~~At March 31, 2008, such investments were $78,480. At December 31, 2007, such investments were $5,000. >~~ The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Bond Portfolio

The Company ~~accounts for~~classifies the bond portfolio ~~under Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt~~as “available-for sale” and ~~Equity Securities." The Company classifies its bond~~measures the portfolio ~~as "available-for sale." Available-for-sale bonds are carried~~ at fair value. ~~Although no ready public market for these bonds exists, management believes the cost approximates fair value, since~~While the bonds are ~~callable at any time by~~generally held until contractual maturity, the ~~issuer at par and~~Company classifies them as available for sale as the ~~bond portfolio yield is currently higher than interest rates on similar instruments.~~ bonds may be used to repay the Company’s secured investor certificates or provide additional liquidity in the short term.

Allowance for Mortgage Loans and Accounts Receivable

The Company records mortgage loans receivable at ~~their~~ estimated net realizable value, which is the unpaid principal ~~balance~~balances of the mortgage loans receivable and accounts receivable, less the allowance for mortgage ~~loans.~~loan losses. The ~~Company's~~Company’s loan policy provides an allowance for estimated uncollectible loans based on an evaluation of the current status of the loan portfolio. This policy reserves for principal amounts outstanding on a particular loan if cumulative interruptions occur in the normal payment schedule of a ~~loan. The~~loan; therefore, the Company ~~reserves~~recognizes a provision for losses and an allowance for the outstanding principal amount of a loan in the ~~Company's~~Company’s portfolio if the amount is in doubt of collection. Additionally, no additional interest income is recognized on ~~non-performing~~impaired loans that are declared to be in ~~the foreclosure process.~~default. At ~~December 31, 2007,~~September 30, 2009, the Company reserved ~~approximately $72,000~~$434,828 for ~~fourteen~~sixteen mortgage loans, of which ~~four were~~ten are three or more mortgage payments in arrears. Three of the loans are in the foreclosure ~~process, of which one has declared bankruptcy.~~process. At ~~March~~December 31, 2008, the Company reserved ~~approximately $85,000~~$107,308 for ~~fifteen~~eleven mortgage loans, of which ~~three are~~five were three or more mortgage payments in ~~arrears and are~~arrears. One of the loans was in the foreclosure process.

A summary of transactions in the allowance for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 is as follows:

Balance at December 31, 2008	$	107,308
Provision for additional losses		370,879
Charge-offs		(43,359	)
Balance at September 30, 2009	$	434,828

The total ~~non-performing~~impaired loans, which are loans that are in the foreclosure process or are ~~no longer performing,~~declared to be in default, were approximately ~~$1,007,000~~$3,690,000 and ~~$1,156,000~~$640,000 at ~~March 31, 2008~~September 30, 2009 and December 31, ~~2007,~~2008, respectively, which the Company believes is adequately secured by the underlying collateral.

Loans totaling approximately $699,000 and $901,000 exceeded 90 days past due but continued to accrue interest as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The Company believes that continued interest accruals are appropriate because the loans are well secured, not deemed to be in default and the Company is actively pursuing collection of past due payments.

AMERICAN CHURCH MORTGAGE COMPANY

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements - Unaudited

September 30, 2009

Real Estate Held for Sale ~~Foreclosure was completed on a church located in Battle Creek, Michigan. The church congregation disbanded and the church property is currently unoccupied.~~

The Company owns and has taken possession of the church and has listed the property for sale through a local realtor. Foreclosure was also completed on a church located in Tyler, Texas. The church congregation is now meeting in a different location and the church property is currently unoccupied. The Company owns and has taken possession of the church and has listed the property for sale through a local realtor. A deed in lieu of foreclosure was received from a church located in Cleveland, Ohio. The Company took possession of the church and listed the property for sale through a local realtor. The sale of the property was completed on January 18, 2008. The property sold for approximately $215,000 and the Company received proceeds of approximately $182,000 from the sale of the property after closing costs and realtor fees. The Company subsequently realized a tax deductible loss on the property totaling approximately $221,000. 9 Foreclosure was completed on a church located in Dayton, Ohio. The church congregation is now meeting in a different location and the church property is currently unoccupied. The Company took possession of the church and listed the property for sale through a local realtor. Foreclosure was also completed on a church located in Dallas, Texas. The Company took possession of the property. The Company received an earnest money deposit from a buyer who is currently in the process of obtaining a certificate of occupancy. When the certificate of occupancy is obtained, the sale of the property will be completed. The Company recorded therecords real estate held for sale at the estimated fair value, which is net of the expected expenses related to the sale of the real estate. Carrying Value of Long-lived Assets The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on mortgage loans receivable and the bond portfolio is recognized as earned. ~~Deferred~~Other income included with interest represents cash received for loan origination fees, which are recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to the yield on the loan.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 13, 2009, the date which the financial statements were issued. The Company is not aware of any subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the condensed financial statements.

Reclassifications

The Company made certain reclassifications to the Condensed Statement of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2008, to conform to classifications for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Amortization of loan costs and other costs of approximately $205,000 and $314,000 are reclassified from operating expenses to interest expense in the Condensed Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. Other income of approximately $19,000 and $21,000 was reclassified from interest and other income to other income in the Condensed Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. Total stockholders’ equity, net income, and cash flows are unchanged due to these reclassifications.

2. FAIR VALUE ~~MEASUREMENT Effective January 1, 2008, the~~MEASUREMENTS

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS 157), as it applies to our financial instruments, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" (SFAS 159). SFAS 157 defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures 10 ~~about fair value measurements. SFAS 159 permits companies to irrevocably choose to measure~~measures certain financial instruments ~~and other items~~ at fair value. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparison between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. Under SFAS 157, fair value ~~is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability~~ in ~~an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy in determining the~~our balance sheets. The fair value of ~~an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has~~these instruments is based on valuations that include inputs that can be classified within one of the three levels of ~~inputs, both observable and unobservable. SFAS 157 requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value.~~a hierarchy.

Plan of Operation

We were founded in May 1994 and commenced active business operations on April 15, 1996 after the completion of our initial public offering.

We have completed four public offerings of common stock, the last of which also included debt securities. We also completed a public offering of debt securities on October 7, 2006. We sold $14,860,000 Series B Secured Investor Certificates of the $23,000,000 offered. On October 29, 2008, we filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a public offering of $20,000,000 worth of Series C Secured Investor Certificates, which may be purchased in multiples of $1,000 at interest rates ranging from 6.25% to 7.25%, subject to changing market rates, and maturities from 13 to 20 years. The offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2009. At September 30, 2009, approximately $191,000 in certificates had been issued.

We currently have seventy-three first mortgage loans aggregating $31,619,026 in principal amount and a first mortgage bond portfolio with par values aggregating $12,453,000. Funding of additional first mortgage loans and purchase of first mortgage bonds issued by churches is expected to continue on an on-going basis as more investable assets become available through: (i) future sales of securities; (ii) prepayment and repayment at maturity of existing loans and bonds; and (iii) borrowed funds.

Results of Operations

Fiscal 2009 Nine Months Compared to Fiscal 2008 Nine Months

Net income for the Company’s nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was approximately $370,000 and $61,000, respectively, on total interest and other income of approximately $2,783,000 and $2,781,000, respectively. Interest and other income is ~~charged at~~comprised of interest from loans, interest from bonds, amortization of bond discounts and amortization of loan origination fees. As of

September 30, 2009, the ~~LIBOR~~Company’s loans receivable have interest rates ranging from 5.00% to 10.25%, with an average, principal-adjusted interest rate ~~plus~~of 8.73%. The Company’s bond portfolio has an ~~applicable margin, which was 1.875% at March 31, 2008 which totaled 5.00%. At both December 12, 2007 and April~~average current yield of 7.71% as of September 30, 2009. As of September 30, 2008, the ~~Company obtained amendments~~average, principal-adjusted interest rate on the Company’s portfolio of loans was 8.31% and the Company’s portfolio of bonds had an average current yield of 7.90%. The increase in interest income was largely due to ~~its non-performing assets ratio covenant allowing an increase~~the purchase of additional bonds and the receipt of some of the past-due interest on St. Agnes Missionary Baptist Church bonds.

Interest expense was approximately $1,344,000 and $1,600,000 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was due to ~~this ratio, ultimately amending it through December~~the maturity of secured investor certificates and the decline in the outstanding balance on our line of credit. Net interest margin increased from 43.05% to 51.69% resulting primarily from a decline in interest expense as secured investor certificates were repaid the payment of $900,000 on our line of credit during the nine month period ended September 30, ~~2008.~~2009.

We continually assess our loan portfolio and reserve for potential losses based on the payment history, status of loans, and market conditions. Due to changing economic conditions and the current status of and trends in our loan portfolio, which has seen a significant rise in both past due loans and loans in the foreclosure process, we made changes to our loan policy in fiscal 2009 that accelerate the recording of allowances when amounts become past due. In addition, we have written off accrued interest on certain loans as a result of these changes. These changes to our loan loss policy have increased the ~~Company was out~~amount of ~~compliance with the cash flow coverage ratio covenant at March 31, 2008. The Company is in the process~~reserves against potential loan losses and our expense of ~~having the cash flow coverage ratio covenant waived or amended. 8. AMENDMENT TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT The Company has changed the presentation~~past due amounts that are deemed doubtful of ~~interest expense and the provision~~collection.

Provision for losses on mortgage loans receivable increased as we recorded additional allowance against the mortgage loans. We recorded a provision for losses on loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 of approximately $328,000 compared to approximately $32,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. At September 30, 2009, we reserved approximately $435,000 for sixteen mortgage loans, of which ten are three or more mortgage payments in arrears. Three of these loans are in the foreclosure process. Two of the loans that are in the foreclosure process have filed bankruptcy proceedings. At December 31, 2008, we reserved approximately $107,000 for eleven mortgage loans, of which five were three or more mortgage payments in arrears.

Our lending practices are limited to churches and other non-profit religious organizations. The total principal amount of our second mortgage loans is limited to 20% of our average invested assets. We do not currently have any second mortgages outstanding. We do not loan to any borrower who has been in operation for less than two years and the borrower must demonstrate they can service the debt outstanding for the prior three years based on historical financial statements. We do not loan money based on projections or pledge programs. The loan amount to any borrower cannot exceed 75% loan to appraised value. Typically, we do not loan over 70% loan to value except in extenuating circumstances. In addition, the borrower’s long-term debt (including the proposed loan) cannot exceed four times the borrower’s gross income for the previous twelve month period.

Historically, loans in our portfolio are outstanding for an average of just under three years. Our borrowers are typically small independent churches with little or no borrowing history. Once a church establishes a payment history with us, they look to re-finance their loan with a local bank, credit union or other financial institution who is willing to provide financing since the borrower has established a payment history and have demonstrated they can meet their mortgage debt obligations.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 decreased to approximately $742,000 compared to $909,000 at September 30, 2008. The decrease is the result of lower impairment

charges on real estate owned. We record impairment charges against real estate owned based on numerous factors which include changes in the selling price or condition of the property.

Fiscal 2009 Third Quarter Compared to Fiscal 2008 Third Quarter

Net income for the Company’s three month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was a loss of approximately $14,000 and $301,000, respectively, on total interest and other income of approximately $882,000 and $938,000, respectively. Interest expense was approximately $445,000 and $643,000 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Net interest income increased for the period from 2008 to 2009 due to the write off of loan costs in 2008 that are included with interest expense, which occurred when our line of credit was refinanced with a different bank.

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased to approximately $201,000 compared to $396,000 at September 30, 2008. The decrease relates to decreases in impairment charges for real estate held for sale.

Mortgage Loans and Real Estate Held for Sale

Five mortgage loans were paid in full during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. We funded one new loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Foreclosure was initiated on two loans to the same borrower totaling approximately $919,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The borrower filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding prior to the sheriff’s sales of the properties. We have filed motions to remove our collateral from the assets protected under the bankruptcy filing. We sold two properties that we had listed for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 recording losses of approximately $3,000 and recorded impairment charges of approximately $92,000 for another property due to a reduction in the listing price.

We currently own $2,035,000 worth of First Mortgage Bonds issued by St. Agnes Missionary Baptist Church, which is located in Houston, Texas. St. Agnes has defaulted on its payment obligation to bondholders, who are currently owed approximately $13,027,000 excluding any accrued interest, fees or expenses. Herring Bank, Amarillo, Texas, is trustee for the First Mortgage Bondholders. Since September 30, 2007, the Company has not recorded an accrual for interest from these bonds. Additionally, the Company has reserved $400,000 for the St. Agnes bonds at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 as part of the fair value adjustment.

St. Agnes agreed to rent the three properties securing the bonds back from Herring Bank and has agreed to maintain the properties as it seeks either re-financing or a buyer for the properties. The lease was signed in March 2009. Lease payments began in the second quarter of 2009 and are being remitted to bondholders as partial interest payments. The lease payments represent approximately half of the church’s monthly debt obligation under the current trust indenture.

Dividends

We have elected to operate as a real estate investment trust (REIT), therefore we are required, among other things, to distribute to shareholders at least 90% of “Taxable Income” in order to maintain our REIT status. The dividends declared and paid to shareholders may include cash from origination fees even though they are not recognized as income in their entirety for the period under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. We earned origination fees of approximately $6,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. We earned origination fees of approximately $51,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.10 for each share held of record on October 28, 2009. The dividend, which was paid October 30, 2009, represents a 4.00% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.11 for each share held of record on July 28, 2009. The dividend, which was paid July 31, 2009, represents a 4.40% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.09 for each share held of record on April 27, 2009. The dividend, which was paid April 30, 2009, represents a 3.60% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate revenue through implementation of our business plan of making mortgage loans to, and acquiring first mortgage bonds issued by, churches and other non-profit religious organizations. Our revenue is derived principally from interest income, and secondarily through the origination fees and renewal fees generated by the mortgage loans we make. We also earn income through interest on funds that are invested pending their use in funding mortgage loans and on income generated on church bonds. Our principal recurring expenses are advisory fees, legal and accounting fees, interest payments on secured investor certificates and our line of credit. Our liabilities at September 30, 2009 are primarily comprised of: dividends declared as of September 30, 2009 but not yet paid; our line of credit balance; and our secured investor certificates.

Our future capital needs are expected to be met by: (i) the additional sale of securities; (ii) prepayment and repayment at maturity of mortgage loans we make; and (iii) borrowed funds. We believe that the “rolling” effect of mortgage loans maturing and bond repayments will provide a supplemental source of capital to fund our business operations in future years. Nevertheless, we believe that it may be desirable, if not necessary, to sell additional securities in order to enhance our capacity to make mortgage loans on a continuous basis. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable for such purposes.

The Company has a $4,500,000 line of credit with Beacon Bank. Advances on the ~~Statement~~line of ~~Operations~~credit are available up to ~~include these accounts as components~~$4,500,000, subject to borrowing base limitations, until Beacon Bank participates out the remaining portion of the line of credit up to $8,000,000. Interest is charged at the prime rate with a minimum interest rate of 5.00%. When the prime rate is greater than 6.00%, the interest rate is prime less .50%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 6.00%. At September 30, 2009, the interest rate on the line of credit was 5.00% and we had an outstanding balance of $3,600,000. The line of credit is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets other than collateral pledged to secure the Company’s Series A, Series B, and Series C Secured Investor Certificates.

On October 29, 2008, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement to offer $20,000,000 worth of Series C Secured Investor Certificates to qualified investors. The offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2009. These certificates are expected to provide a source of capital to fund additional loans to qualified borrowers, pay down existing maturing certificates and to pay down our line of credit which, at times, may provide funds at less favorable terms than funds obtained through our certificate offering. At September 30, 2009, approximately $191,000 had been collected from the issuance of Series C certificates. The proceeds were used to purchase church bonds. We are considering a post effective amendment to our registration statement to offer shorter term maturities of four to seven years to investors seeking shorter term certificates in addition to the 13 to 20 year certificates that are currently being offered.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our total assets decreased by approximately $2,166,000 due to a decrease in mortgage loans receivable resulting from payments, primarily the prepayment of five mortgage loans, and a decrease in real estate held for sale resulting from the sale of two properties. Current liabilities decreased by approximately $2,059,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 due to decreases in current maturities of our secured investor certificates, our line of credit balance and building funds payable. Non-current liabilities increased by approximately $264,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 due to the sale and renewal of secured investor certificates.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, cash from operating activities increased to approximately $937,000 from $828,000 from the comparative period ended September 30, 2008, primarily related to higher net interest ~~income. 14~~ margin.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, cash provided by investing activities was approximately $1,345,000 compared to cash provided by investing activities of approximately $197,000 from the comparative nine months ended September 30, 2008, due to a decrease in investment in bonds.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, cash used for financing activities increased to approximately $2,397,000 from $794,000 for the comparative nine months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to an increase in payments on our line of credit and payments for deferred costs.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Preparation of our financial statements requires estimates and judgments to be made that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. We evaluate these estimates based on assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The difficulty in applying these policies arises from the assumptions, estimates and judgments that have to be made currently about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future economic conditions, operating results and valuations as well as management intentions. As the difficulty increases, the level of precision decreases, meaning that actual results can and probably will be different from those currently estimated.

Of our significant accounting policies described in the notes to our financial statements included herewith, we believe that the estimation of fair value of our mortgage loans receivable, bond portfolio and real estate held for resale involves a high degree of judgment. We estimate the fair value of our mortgage loans receivable and related allowance for loan losses based on the current status of loans, the history of payments and the number of payments in arrears. We estimate the fair value of the bond portfolio based on similar bonds in inactive markets and widely accepted valuation techniques. We had one bond series default, which was subsequently foreclosed upon by the bond trustee. We have estimated losses on this bond based on the underlying collateral, the anticipated selling price of the properties, the current credit environment and the condition of the economy in general. The recorded losses on the defaulted bonds effectively reduced the bonds to fair value, which is the amount management believes will be recovered.

We estimate the value of real estate we hold for sale on a number of factors. We look at the current condition of the property as well as current market conditions in determining fair value. Since churches are primarily single-use facilities, the listing price of the property may be lower than the total amount owed to us. Attorney fees, taxes, utilities and real estate commission fees will also reduce the amount we

collect from the sale of a property we have acquired through foreclosure. The fair value of the real estate held for sale includes estimates of expenses related to the sale of the real estate.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Items 4T. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended September 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the principal accounting officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The principal reason for the position is, as the Company has previously reported, due to the fact that the Company has a limited number of personnel in the finance and accounting functions. Were there a larger staff, it would be possible to provide for enhanced disclosure of financial reporting matters and greater segregation of duties which would permit checks and balances and reviews that would improve internal control. We continue to evaluate internal controls, particularly segregation of duties, to provide greater segregation and improve overall internal control. Some of the remediation actions we are undertaking include, but are not limited to, the following: a) having an internal control review done by an Independent Board Member who performs periodic testing of our internal controls and procedures; b) having separate oversight of bank reconciliations and other cash management procedures by individuals who are not involved in the day to day operations of the Company; and c) improved monitoring of changes to financial reporting requirements.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
