Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we have evaluated,
under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer,
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report
Form 10-K. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
our management on a timely basis to allow decisions regarding required
disclosure. Based upon our evaluation as of December 31, 2009, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
December 31, 2009, to ensure that information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the rules and forms of the SEC.
MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal
control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2009 based
on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO) as well as criteria established
in Item 307 and 308T of Regulation S-K.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies
and procedures that (1) pertain to maintenance of records that,
in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions
and dispositions of assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only
in accordance with authorizations of our management and Board of
Directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition
of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and, even when
determined to be effective, can only provide reasonable, not absolute,
assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to risk that controls may become inadequate as a result of
changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance.
Based on the assessment, our management has concluded that our internal
control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009
and provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The results of management's assessment were reviewed with
the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. This annual report does
not include an attestation report of our independent registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management's report was not subject to attestation by our independent
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only
management's report in this annual report.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009, there were no changes in
our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
