Other then as noted above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial
reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005.
It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. As a result, there can be no
assurance that a control system will succeed in preventing all possible instances of error and fraud. The
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their
objectives, and the conclusions of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are made at the
“reasonable assurance” level.
