PART III - NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

The Registrant is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “Report”) by the prescribed date of May 15, 2024, without unreasonable effort or expense for the reasons set forth below:

 

On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued an order reporting that it had settled administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against the Company’s former auditor, BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) and its sole audit partner, Benjamin F. Borgers CPA, permanently barring BF Borgers and Mr. Borgers from appearing or practicing before the SEC as an accountant (the “Order”).

 

On or around May 13, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors dismissed BF Borgers as its auditor, effective May 6, 2024.

 

Accordingly, the Company requires additional time to complete its financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, and to confirm the impact of BF Borgers and Mr. Borger’s conduct as described in the Order on the Company’s financial statements for such quarter and for prior periods.

 

The Company is working diligently to engage a new independent registered public accounting firm to complete the Form 10-Q as soon as possible, and to take other appropriate steps in light of BF Borgers and Mr. Borger’s conduct as described in the Order.
