|
(i)
|
The Company's process for
internally reporting material information in a systematic manner to allow
for timely filing of material information is ineffective, due to its
inherent limitations from being a small company, and there exist material
weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that contribute to
the weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures. These
weaknesses include the lack
of:
|
|
|
·
|
appropriate segregation of
duties;
|
|
|
·
|
appropriate oversight and
review;
|
|
|
·
|
internal accounting technical
expertise;
|
|
|
·
|
preparation, review and
verification of internally developed
documentation;
|
|
|
·
|
controls in place to insure that
all material developments impacting the financial statements are
reflected; and
|
|
|
·
|
executed agreements for
significant contracts.
|
|
(ii)
|
Lack of a sufficient number of
independent directors for our board and audit committee. We
currently only have one independent director on our board, which is
comprised of three directors, and on our audit
committee. Although we are considered a controlled company,
whereby a group holds more than 50% of the voting power, and as such are
not required to have a majority of our board of directors be independent
it is our intention to have a majority of independent directors in due
course.
|
|
Lack of a financial expert on our
audit committee. We currently do not have an audit committee
financial expert, as defined by SEC regulations on our audit committee as
defined by the SEC.
|
|
(iv)
|
Insufficient corporate governance
policies. Although we have a code of ethics which provides
broad guidelines for corporate governance, our corporate governance
activities and processes are not always formally
documented. Specifically, decisions made by the board to be
carried out by management should be documented and communicated on a
timely basis to reduce the likelihood of any misunderstandings regarding
key decisions affecting our operations and
management.
|
|
(v)
|
Inadequate approval and control
over transactions and commitments made on our behalf by related
parties. Specifically, during the year certain related party
transactions were not effectively communicated to all internal personnel
who needed to be involved to account for and report the transaction in a
timely manner. This resulted in material adjustments during the
quarterly reviews and annual audit, respectively, that otherwise would
have been avoided if effective communication and approval processes had
been maintained.
