ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. In connection with correcting material weaknesses identified by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in our assessment of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting as of December 31, 2009, we have corrected our model for our estimated volatility, corrected our tax provision model to include the deferred tax liability related to the tax amortization, as well as implemented reviews to ensure that our accounting methodology is correct as a control.  We have implemented and will utilize these updated models and controls for all necessary transactions going forward.
