EXPLANATORY NOTE
The sole purpose of this amendment to our Form 10-Q for September 30, 2009 is to update the second paragraph in Item 4T. Controls and Procedures and clarify the value for stock for the first and last issuances in October described in Item 2. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President/Secretary, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President/Secretary, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, we have a material weakness in our disclosure controls, and therefore we have been implementing control procedures to mitigate our internal control issues which could have a material impact on our financial reporting procedures. As noted in our Form 10/A-2 report filed with the SEC on October 28, 2009, the Company had indicated restated financials to correct internal control issues. As of the current quarterly filing, the Company feels that it is working towards clear disclosures and implementing proper internal controls over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a- 15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is intended to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
·
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions of our financial statements;
·
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with applicable GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and
·
provide reasonable assurance that transactions pertaining to stock issuances are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with applicable GAAP, and that the stock issuances are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, and our Chief Executive Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and preparation of our quarterly financial statements as of September 30, 2009 and believe that we had a material weakness in our internal controls. The Company is correcting the internal control issues which presented in our registration statement as noted that the Company had to “restate” 2 periods of financial information. The Company has implemented controls as a result of the documentation surrounding our restatements by analyzing our financials, reviewing disclosure requirements by the SEC and providing for management, detailed schedules and documentation which will mitigate our risk in the area of our internal controls over financial reporting. Our controls have since been updated in order to prevent the issues su rrounding our restatements and management feels that, moving forward, our controls over financial reporting will reduce the potential impact of material misstatements.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
