Management's Annual Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in the Securities
Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our system of internal control is designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted
an evaluation of the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that the Company's internal
control over financial reporting was effective as of January 31, 2012.
The effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2012 was audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered
public accounting firm, as stated in their report that is included on page 39 of this annual report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
