EXPLANATORY NOTE

We filed our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 on August 13, 2012 (the “Original Report”). We are filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) to make the following changes:

To add Note 16 for the restatement;

To update management discussion and analysis in Item 2;

To restate financial statements as required;

To add restated reference in the financial statements;

To amend disclosure of Controls and Procedures in Item 4; and

Provide currently dated Exhibit Nos. 31-1 and 32-1.

No other changes have been made to the Form 10-Q. This Amendment No. 1 to the Form 10-Q speaks as of the original filing date of the Form 10-Q, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date, and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the original Form 10-Q.

On September 7, 2012, the audit committee of the Company, upon recommendation of the Company’s management determined that the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 as originally filed in the Form 10-K could no longer be relied on. The Company determined that the financial statements of Kiarabrite (Pty) Ltd., Dimaflo (Pty) Ltd., Tundraspex (Pty) Ltd., Civisign (Pty) Ltd., Dimalogix (Pty) Ltd., and Chanticleer & Shaw Foods (Pty) Ltd. (collectively referred to as the “South African Operations”) which are the South African management company and the four entities organized for the stores we operate in South Africa, and the company that owns the HOA franchise rights for the territory of South Africa, were not audited as the Company was led to believe. Accordingly, this Amendment is being filed to include the changes to the financial statements of the South African Operations and its impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the period ended June 30, 2012, as a result of the audit of the South African Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and the subsequent review of the operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. We have made no attempt in this Amendment to modify or update the disclosures presented in the Original Report other than as noted in the previous paragraph. Also, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and our other filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.

Nature of Business

Organization

Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized October 21, 1999, under its original name, Tulvine Systems, Inc., under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company previously had limited operations and was considered a development stage company until July 2005. On April 25, 2005, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. On May 2, 2005, Tulvine Systems, Inc. merged with and changed its name to Chanticleer Holdings, Inc.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Chanticleer Advisors, LLC, (“Advisors”), Avenel Ventures, LLC ("Ventures"), Avenel Financial Services, LLC ("AFS"), Chanticleer Holdings Limited ("CHL"), Chanticleer Holdings Australia Pty, Ltd. (“CHA”), Chanticleer Investment Partners, LLC (“CIP”), DineOut SA Ltd. ("DineOut”), Chanticleer and Shaw Foods (Pty) Ltd. (“C&S”), Kiarabrite (Pty) Ltd (“KPL”), Dimaflo (Pty) Ltd (“DFLO”), Tundraspex (Pty) Ltd (“TPL”), Civisign (Pty) Ltd (“CPL”), Dimalogix (Pty) Ltd (“DLOG”) and Crown Restaurants Kft (“Crown”) (collectively referred to as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “the Companies”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Further detailed information regarding the Company's subsidiaries can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Effective May 11, 2012, the Company's common stock was reverse split, 1 share for each 2 shares issued, pursuant to a majority vote of the Company's shareholders. All share references have been adjusted as if the split occurred prior to all periods presented.

GENERAL

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements have not been audited.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2011, which is included in the Company’s Form 10-K/A.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had restated current assets of $4,096,538 and $641,963; current liabilities of $1,355,150 and $3,720,486; and a working capital balance (deficit) of $2,741,388 and $(3,078,523), respectively. The Company incurred a loss of $1,547,401 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and had an unrealized loss from available-for-sale securities of $237,639 and a foreign currency translation loss of $1,048, resulting in a comprehensive loss of $1,786,088.

The Company's corporate general and administrative expenses averaged approximately $295,000 per quarter during 2011 and has increased to $481,000 in the first quarter of 2012 and $657,000 in the current quarter as we expanded our footprint internationally. Effective October 1, 2011, the Company acquired majority control of the restaurants in South Africa and began consolidating these operations. The Company also will share 49% of the profits in our Hooters location opened in January 2012 in Campbelltown, Australia, a suburb of Sydney and plans to open a second Australia location under the same terms before the end of 2012.

The Company has a note with a balance at June 30, 2012 of $239,241 owed to its bank which is due in August 2013 and a line of credit with its bank with a balance at June 30, 2012 of $0 (total available was $2,000,000). The line matures on August 20, 2012. The Company is currently negotiating an extension of the line of credit and the terms. All of our prior notes payable and convertible debt were paid in either cash or common stock with the closing of our raise in June 2012 (for further details, see notes 7 and 10). In addition, the Company may use limited partnerships, if the Company’s raise is not sufficient or if the line of credit cannot be extended, to fund its share of costs for additional Hooters restaurants.

The Company expects to meet its obligations in the remainder of 2012 and the first six months of 2013 with some or all of the following:

The cash proceeds received from the sale of units (consisting of common stock and warrants) in a registered offering declared effective on June 21, 2012 in which the company sold $11 million of units and netted approximately $10.1 million before expenses and approximately $3.6 million after payment of debt and accrued interest, Hoot SA non-controlling interest, and expenses;

Received $100,000 as an annual fee for its CEO sitting on the Board of Hooters of America and expect to continue to receive this annual fee for the next three years based on the current agreement;

Borrow, if and to the extent available, additional funds on its existing line of credit;

Positive cash flow from our South African restaurant operations.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 except for the following:

RESTAURANT PRE-OPENING EXPENSES

Restaurant pre-opening expenses, which are expensed as incurred, consist of the costs of hiring and training the initial hourly work force for each new restaurant, travel, the cost of food and supplies used in training, grand opening promotional costs, the cost of the initial stocking of operating supplies and other direct costs related to the opening of a restaurant, including rent during the construction and in-restaurant training period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. At July 31, 2012, none of these pronouncements are expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

ACQUISITION OF MAJORITY OWNED HOOTERS RESTAURANTS (RESTATED NOTE 16)

Effective October 1, 2011, the Company acquired majority ownership of a management company, a company that owns the HOA franchise rights for the territory of South Africa, and four Hooters restaurants in South Africa. Previously, the Company owned 50% of the restaurants but was not in control and these operations were accounted for using the equity method of accounting. New entities were formed for the operations and the Company’s ownership at June 30, 2012, after the buyout of the Hoot partnerships is as follows: KPL 80%, DFLO 82%, TPL 88%, CPL 90% and DLOG 97%. The restaurant owned by DFLO in Durban opened in January 2010, the restaurant owned by TPL in Johannesburg opened in June 2010, the restaurant owned by CPL in Cape Town opened in June 2011and the restaurant owned by DLOG opened in February 2012.

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the consolidated statements of operations include the results of the South African operations beginning October 1, 2011. The assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair values as determined by the Company’s management based on information currently available and on current assumptions as to future operations. A summary of the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition follows:

Current assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents	$	138,801
Property and equipment and intangible assets		1,985,799

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company received an additional 150,000 shares of NAEY in exchange for management services. The shares were initially valued at $10,500, based on the trading price at the time. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the shares were valued at $4,500 and $18,000.

INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE COST METHOD

Investments at cost consist of the following at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Chanticleer Investors, LLC	$	500,000	$	500,000
Edison Nation LLC (FKA Bouncing Brain Productions)		250,000		250,000
Chanticleer Investors II		16,598		16,598
	$	766,598	$	766,598

Chanticleer Investors LLC -The Company sold 1/2 of its investment in Investors LLC in May 2009 for its cost of $575,000, which reduced its ownership from 23% to 11.5%. Accordingly, in May 2009, the Company discontinued accounting for this investment using the equity method and began to account for the investment using the cost method. In December 2010, the Company sold an additional $75,000 of its investment at cost.

On April 18, 2006, the Company formed Investors LLC and sold units for $5,000,000. Investors LLC’s principal asset was a convertible note in the amount of $5,000,000 with Hooters of America, Inc. (“HOA”), collateralized by and convertible into 2% of Hooters common stock. The original note included interest at 6% and was due May 24, 2009. The note was extended until November 24, 2010 and included an increase in the interest rate to 8%.

On January 24, 2011, Investors LLC and its three partners combined to form HOA Holdings, LLC ("HOA LLC") and completed the acquisition of Hooters of America, Inc. ("HOA") and Texas Wings, Inc. ("TW"). Together HOA LLC has created an operating company with 161 company-owned locations across sixteen states, or nearly half of all domestic Hooters restaurants and over one-third of the locations worldwide.

Investors, LLC had a note receivable in the amount of $5,000,000 from HOA that was repaid at closing. Investors LLC then invested $3,550,000 in HOA LLC (approximately 3%) ($500,000 of which is the Company's share). One of the investors in Investors LLC that owned a $1,750,000 share is a direct investor in HOA LLC and will now carry its ownership in HOA LLC directly. The Company owned approximately 14% of Investors LLC at June 30, 2012. In July 2012, the Company acquired an additional interest of $300,000, at cost, from one of the partners for cash, which increases our ownership to approximately 22.5% of Investors LLC.

Based on the current status of this investment, the Company does not consider the investment to be impaired.

EE Investors, LLC -On January 26, 2006, we acquired an investment in EE Investors, LLC with cash in the amount of $250,000. We acquired 1,205 units (3.378%) in EE Investors, LLC, whose sole asset is 40% of Edison Nation, LLC (formerly Bouncing Brain Productions, LLC). Edison Nation was formed to provide equity capital for new inventions and help bring them to market. The initial business plan included developing the products and working with manufacturers and marketing organizations to sell the products. This has evolved into a less hands-on program which involves selling products with patents to other larger companies and retaining royalties. Edison Nation has now reached cash flow break-even, and in addition has been retained by a number of companies for which they do product searches to supplement its business. Edison Nation plans to repay the majority of its debt in 2012 and expects to subsequently begin making distributions to its owners. Based on the current status of this investment, the Company does not consider the investment to be impaired.

Chanticleer Investors II -The Company paid $16,598 in professional services to form this partnership. Chanticleer Advisors, LLC acts as the managing general partner and receives a management fee based on a percentage of profits.

	Fair Value Measurement Using
			Quoted prices
			in active		Significant
			markets of		other		Significant
			identical		observable		Unobservable
	Recorded		assets		inputs		Inputs
	value		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)

Assets:
Available-for-sale securities	$	80,713	$	79,213	$	1,500	$	-

December 31, 2011
Assets:
Available-for-sale securities	$	318,353	$	316,853	$	1,500	$	-

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company's available-for-sale equity securities were valued using Level 1 and Level 2 inputs as summarized above. Level 1 inputs are based on unadjusted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access. Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets other than quoted prices in Level 1, quoted prices in markets that are not yet active, or other inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets.

The Company does not have any investments that are measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs.

Certain assets are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including investments accounted for under the equity and cost methods. Accordingly, such investments are only included in the fair value hierarchy disclosure when the investment is subject to re-measurement at fair value after initial recognition and the resulting re-measurement is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

See Note 4 for further details of the Company's investments.

RESTATEMENT OF 2011 AND 2012 FINANCIAL INFORMATION

These condensed consolidated financial statements restate certain items previously reported by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and revise certain items previously reported by the Company in the notes to the consolidated financial statements due to the events described below. For information regarding the restatement of the 2011 year see the Company’s Amended Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on December 4, 2012.

Restated balances for 2012 and 2011 financial information items have been identified with the notation “Restated” where appropriate and applicable.

Other than the revising of the previously filed condensed consolidated financial statements relating to the restatement, these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements speak as of the filing date of the Company’s original Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2012, filed on August 13, 2012, and these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have not been updated to reflect other events occurring subsequent to the original filing date. These notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in their historical context, except to the extent revised as a result of this restatement.

On September 7, 2012, the audit committee of the Company, upon recommendation of the Company’s management determined that the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 as originally filed in the Form 10-K could no longer be relied on. The Company determined that the financial statements of Kiarabrite (Pty) Ltd., Dimaflo (Pty) Ltd., Tundraspex (Pty) Ltd., Civisign (Pty) Ltd., Dimalogix (Pty) Ltd., and Chanticleer & Shaw Foods (Pty) Ltd. (collectively referred to as the “South African Operations”) which are the South African management company and the four entities organized for the stores we operate in South Africa, and the company that owns the HOA franchise rights for the territory of South Africa, were not audited as the Company was led to believe. Accordingly, this Amendment is being filed to include the changes to the financial statements of the South African Operations and its impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the period ended June 30, 2012, as a result of the audit of the South African Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and the subsequent review of the operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

On September 7, 2012, the Company’s South African Chief Financial Officer (“SA CFO”) resigned. It was determined that the SA CFO had committed certain illegal acts, fraud and certain misrepresentations of facts. Due to the SA CFO’s actions, certain taxes were not paid. In addition, the applicable tax forms were not filed during the proper periods. The Company has engaged tax experts to assist in the tax process. The Company also discovered a balance of approximately $96,737 and $42,109 of cash that was misappropriated by the SA CFO as of the end of the second quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011 (presented as “other receivable” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011), and approximately $128,000 in total for the period from October 2011 through September 2012. As of December 10, 2012, approximately $41,000 has been recovered by the Company and payment plans are in place for the remainder.

The Company engaged outside South African tax experts in September 2012 to assist with compliance with Value Added Tax (VAT), payroll taxes, and income taxes n South Africa. A voluntary disclosure agreement has been submitted and the Company is awaiting contract from the South African governmental agency.

In connection with the acquisition of assets as described in Note 3, the Company believes the purchase and sale with the seller was accomplished in accordance with the laws and regulations of the taxing authorities in South Africa. However, there can be no absolute assurance that the seller has fulfilled its tax and regulatory filing requirements, and whether or not the local authorities could seek to recover any unpaid taxes or other amounts from the Company, its shareholders or others. The Company is not aware of any known obligations for which the Company may be required to settle.

The following tables include the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012, condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and include the consolidated amounts previously reported, adjustments reflected in this amended filing, and the restated amounts for 2012.

Management’s Analysis of Business

We have changed our focus recently from managing investments to owning and operating Hooters franchises internationally. Hooters restaurants are casual beach-themed establishments with sports on television, jukebox music, and the “nearly world famous” Hooters Girls. The menu consists of spicy chicken wings, seafood, sandwiches and salads. Each locations menu can vary with the tastes of the locality it is in. Hooters began in 1983 with its first restaurant in Clearwater, Florida. From the original restaurant and licensee Mr. Robert Brooks, Hooters has become a global brand, with locations in 44 states domestically and over 430 Hooters restaurants worldwide. Besides restaurants, Hooters has also branched out to other areas, including licensing its name to a golf tour and the sale of packaged food in supermarkets.

We expect to either own 100% of the Hooters franchise or partner with a local franchisee in the countries we target. We based this decision on what we believe to be the successful launch of our South African Hooters venture and believe we have aligned partners and operators in various international markets. We are focused on expanding our Hooters operations, and expect to use substantially all the net proceeds from the upcoming offering, in South Africa, Brazil, Hungary, Australia and Europe.

Accordingly, we operate in two business segments; Hooters franchise restaurants and our legacy investment management and consulting services businesses.

RESTAURANT OPERATIONS

The following is a condensed unaudited statement of operations for our restaurant operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, which currently consists of four Hooters locations in South Africa.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historical information:

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had current assets of $4,096,538 and $641,963; current liabilities of $1,355,150 and $3,720,486; and a working capital balance (deficit) of $2,741,388 and $(3,078,523), respectively. The Company incurred a loss of $1,547,401 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and had an unrealized loss from available-for-sale securities of $237,639 and a foreign currency translation loss of $1,048, resulting in a comprehensive loss of $1,786,088.

The Company's corporate general and administrative expense averaged approximately $295,000 per quarter during 2011 and has increased to $481,000 in the first quarter of 2012 and $657,000 in the current quarter as we expanded our footprint internationally. Effective October 1, 2011, the Company acquired majority control of the restaurants in South Africa and began consolidating these operations. The Company also will share 49% of the profits in our Hooters location opened in January 2012 in Campbelltown, Australia, a suburb of Sydney and plans to open a second Australia location under the same terms before the end of 2012.

The Company expects to meet its obligations in the remainder of 2012 and the first six months of 2013 with some or all of the following:

The cash proceeds received from the sale of units (consisting of common stock and warrants) in a registered offering declared effective on June 21, 2012 in which the company sold $11 million of units and netted approximately $10.1 million before expenses and approximately $3.6 million after conversion and payment of debt and accrued interest, Hoot SA non-controlling interest, and expenses;

Received $100,000 as an annual fee for its CEO sitting on the Board of Hooters of America and expect to continue to receive this annual fee for the next three years based on the current agreement;

Borrow, if and to the extent available, additional funds on its existing line of credit;

Positive cash flow from our South African restaurant operations.

Evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows:

The Company plans to use the funding from the S-1 Registration to partially complete its expansion plans in South Africa, Brazil, Australia, Hungary and Europe. The Company has used short-term financing to meet the preliminary requirements of its planned expansion, principally in South Africa and Australia. The Company obtained less than originally contemplated from our offering, which may require the Company to limit its expansion plans. We would use limited partner funding and other sources of capital to the extent necessary to attempt to fund as much of the planned expansion as possible. There can be no assurance that any of this funding will be available when needed.

Cash requirements and capital expenditures:

In 2012, we expect to open one restaurant in each of the following countries – Australia (in addition to the one already opened in January 2012) and Budapest, Hungary; and plans to secure locations in South Africa and Brazil. The Company expects the total cash requirements for these restaurants to be approximately $3.3 million, of which approximately $1.3 million has been paid as of June 30, 2012.

In addition, we expect general and administrative expenses to be approximately $2.0-$2.3 million for 2012.

Discussion and analysis of known trends and uncertainties:

The world economy has been in a state of flux for some time with the debt problems of a number of countries in Europe, the recent recession in the United States, the significant increase to debt in the United States compounded by continuing to give away more than can reasonably be collected, the slowing economy in China and other factors. It is impossible to forecast what this will mean to our expansion plans in South Africa, Brazil, Australia, Europe and Hungary. We feel that we minimize our risks through investment in different geographical areas.

Expected changes in the mix and relative cost of capital resources:

Since the middle of 2010, the Company has utilized high cost capital to finance its international growth. The Company has eliminated the majority of this debt with new equity in June 2012 and further, to use this equity and possible additional financing as necessary to complete its expansion plans over the next two years.

Other prospective sources for and uses of cash:

The Company is seeking to renew its $2,000,000 line of credit which as been repaid as of June 30, 2012 and matures in August 2012. As discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, effective October 1, 2011, the Company acquired majority control of the restaurants in South Africa and began consolidating these operations. Previously all restaurant operations were accounted for using the equity method.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

Revenue

Revenue amounted to $1,727,821 in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $32,830 in the year earlier period.

Revenues for the management business for the three months ended June 30, 2012 amounted to $31,698 and $32,830 in the year earlier period. In the three months ended June 30, 2012 and in the year earlier period, the revenue from non-affiliates of $25,000 represents three months of the Company’s annual payment from HOA of $100,000, which is due in January each year while Mr. Pruitt serves on its board.

Restaurant operating expenses

Restaurant operating expenses amounted to $923,290, or 54.4% of restaurant net sales. We expect the percentage of operating expenses to restaurant net sales to decline as we open more Hooters locations, however we have a limited history to be able to forecast a range.

Restaurant pre-opening expenses

Restaurant pre-opening expenses amounted to $23,499 incurred for the opening of our Hooters location in Budapest, Hungary expected in the third quarter of 2012.

General and Administrative Expense (“G&A”)

Other G&A		163,565		25,568
	$	656,112	$	259,766

G&A costs are expected to range from $550-$650,000 per quarter for the remainder of 2012, with the costs associated with the activities of the restaurant business continuing to grow. Revenue from the restaurants is expected to exceed this increase in expense.

Payroll and benefits increased $58,981 in 2012 from 2011 primarily from the addition of restaurant management personnel beginning in the fourth quarter of 2011 and the addition of corporate personnel in the second quarter of 2012.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the PCAOB standards, a control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit the attention by those responsible for oversight of the company's financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2012. Our management has determined that, as of June 30, 2012, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective.

In connection with the preparation of the its quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2012, the Company’s management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2012, as a result of the existence of a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting related to the Company’s South African subsidiaries.

Since September 2012, the Company has made progress in improving its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company has taken, and are taking, the following actions to remediate the remaining material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that existed at that date: (i) appointed a new South African CFO; (ii) improve segregation of duties; and (iii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.

The Company continues to strive to improve processes to enable them to provide complete and accurate public disclosure. Management believes they will not be able to conclude that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective until the material weaknesses have been fully remediated.

To address the material weaknesses listed above, management performed analyses and post-closing procedures designed to ensure the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These procedures included documentation and testing of processes, data validation procedures from the systems into the general ledger, testing of systems, validation of results, disclosure review, and other analytics. As a result, management believes the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period ended June 30, 2012.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
