<p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0pt 0px; font: 10pt 'times new roman', times, serif; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; letter-spacing: normal; color: #000000; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> </p>

This incorrect valuation allowance has no effect on the Company's cash position or operating expenses and is solely related to the appropriate timing of the recording of a valuation allowance reserved against U.S. deferred tax assets.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0pt 0px; font: 10pt 'times new roman', times, serif; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; letter-spacing: normal; color: #000000; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0pt 0px; font: 10pt 'times new roman', times, serif; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; letter-spacing: normal; color: #000000; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">At the time of the March 31, 2018 Form 10-Q filing, the Company believed that the carrying value of its deferred tax assets was appropriate based on its view that it was more likely than not that this deferred tax asset would be realized in future periods. In preparing its consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2018, the Company determined, in consultation with BDO, based on management's review of current and historical performance, internal projections and industry data and applicable accounting literature, that it should recognize a valuation allowance equal to the entire carrying value of the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets. However, upon further review of the negative and positive objective evidence and applicable accounting literature, the Company determined, in consultation with BDO, that a full valuation allowance on domestic net deferred tax assets should have been recorded as of the end of its third fiscal quarter rather than as of the end of its fourth fiscal quarter. As a result, the Company has determined to record a valuation allowance of approximately $71,350 on its U.S. deferred tax assets at March 31, 2018.</p>

This Amendment No. 1 reflects the Restatement. The Restatement has no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 and consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2018, which financial statements were filed on September 28, 2018 with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018. The Annual Report reflected the results of the Restatement in Note 20 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, entitled “Unaudited Quarterly Financial Data.”</p>

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.</p>

This incorrect valuation allowance has no effect on the Company's cash position or operating expenses and is solely related to the appropriate timing of the recording of a valuation allowance reserved against U.S. deferred tax assets.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0pt 0px; font: 10pt 'times new roman', times, serif; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; letter-spacing: normal; color: #000000; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> </p> <p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0pt 0px; font: 10pt 'times new roman', times, serif; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; letter-spacing: normal; color: #000000; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">At the time of the March 31, 2018 Form 10-Q filing, the Company believed that the carrying value of its deferred tax assets was appropriate based on its view that it was more likely than not that this deferred tax asset would be realized in future periods. In preparing its consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2018, the Company determined, in consultation with BDO, based on management's review of current and historical performance, internal projections and industry data and applicable accounting literature, that it should recognize a valuation allowance equal to the entire carrying value of the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets. However, upon further review of the negative and positive objective evidence and applicable accounting literature, the Company determined, in consultation with BDO, that a full valuation allowance on domestic net deferred tax assets should have been recorded as of the end of its third fiscal quarter rather than as of the end of its fourth fiscal quarter. As a result, the Company has determined to record a valuation allowance of approximately $71,350 on its U.S. deferred tax assets at March 31, 2018.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; widows: 2; text-transform: none;
