EXPLANATORY NOTE



We are filing this Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, or Form 10-K/A, to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, or the Annual Report, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2014, to clarify, amend and restate Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report relating to our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures.



In addition, we are filing, as indicated under Part IV, Item 15 in this Form 10-K/A, as exhibits certain currently dated certifications.



Except as described in the preceding paragraphs, we do not purport by this Form 10-K/A to update any of the information contained in the Annual Report.



PART II



Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



As of December 31, 2013, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive and financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal control over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting



Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013.  In making this assessment, our management used criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies.








During our assessment of the design and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, management identified the following material weaknesses:



| | ● | There is no documentation that the Board of Directors monitored or provided oversight responsibility related to financial reporting and related internal controls and considered its effectiveness;         
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| | ● | While we have processes in place, there are no formal written policies and procedures related to certain financial reporting processes;                                                                     
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| | ● | There is no formal documentation in which management specified financial reporting objectives to enable the identification of risks, including fraud risks; and                                             
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| | ● | From November 2010 until April 2014, our Board of Directors consisted of only one member and we lack the resources and personnel to implement proper segregation of duties or other risk mitigation systems.



A material weakness is "a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected by us in a timely manner." A significant deficiency, is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the registrant’s financial reporting.



We intend to gradually improve our internal control over financial reporting to the extent that we can allocate resources to such improvements.  We intend to prioritize the design of our internal control over financial reporting starting with our control environment and risk assessments and ending with control activities, information and communication activities, and monitoring activities.   Although we believe the time to adapt in the next year will help position us to provide improved internal control functions into the future, in the interim, these changes caused control deficiencies, which in the aggregate resulted in a material weakness.  Due to the existence of these material weaknesses, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013.



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 the rules of the SEC that permit smaller reporting companies to provide only the management’s report in this annual report.



Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting



There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
