We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information
required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, management evaluated, under the supervision
and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014. Based upon that
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2014.
