ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, management of the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
or the “Exchange Act”) as of December 31, 2013 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures are effective and provide reasonable assurance (i) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports
that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and (ii) to ensure that information required to
be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended
December 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. In addition, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public
accounting firm, has attested to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The attestation report is included in
Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect
that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls will prevent or detect all possible misstatements
due to error and fraud. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls are, however, designed to
provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance
level.
