BAYOU CITY EXPLORATION, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements of Bayou City Exploration, Inc. (the “Company”) included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Although certain information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States has been omitted, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Form 10-K of the Company for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and subsequent filings with the SEC.

The financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of results to be expected for a full year.

2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

Under the sales method, oil and gas revenue is recognized when produced and sold. Management fees are recognized under the accrual method and recorded when earned. Prospect fees charged under joint participation agreements are recorded after execution.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are from oil and gas sales produced and sold during the reporting period but awaiting cash payment, from expenditures paid on behalf of the limited partnerships, from expenditures on behalf of non-operators, including related parties and on oil and gas properties operated by the Company. Based upon a review of trade receivables as of September 30, 2011, a total of $0 was considered potentially uncollectible.

Managed Limited Partnerships

The Company sponsors limited partnerships for which it serves as the Managing General Partner. The Company normally participates for 10% of the limited partnerships as the Managing General Partner and accounts for the investment under the equity method. Revenues received and changes in the partnership investments are recorded as oil and gas revenues and net assets, respectively.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Under the successful efforts method of accounting, costs which relate directly to the discovery of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. These capitalized costs include:

(1)  
the costs of acquiring mineral interest in properties,

(2)  
costs to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves,

(3)  
costs to drill and equip development wells, and

(4)  
costs for support equipment and facilities used in oil and gas producing activities.


 
4

 

 
These costs are depreciated, depleted or amortized on the unit of production method, based on estimates of recoverable proved developed oil and gas reserves. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical costs, and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed.

The costs of acquiring unproved properties are capitalized as incurred and carried until the property is reclassified as a producing oil and gas property, or considered impaired as discussed below. The Company annually assesses its unproved properties to determine whether they have been impaired. If the results of this assessment indicate impairment, a loss is recognized by providing a valuation allowance. When an unproved property is surrendered, the costs related thereto are first charged to the valuation allowance, with any additional balance expensed to operations.

The costs of drilling exploratory wells are capitalized as wells in progress pending determination of whether the well has proved reserves. Once a determination is made, the capitalized costs are charged to expense if no reserves are found or, otherwise reclassified as part of the costs of the Company’s wells and related equipment. In the absence of a determination as to whether the reserves that have been found can be classified as proved, the costs of drilling such an exploratory well are not carried as an asset for more than one year following completion of drilling. If, after a year has passed, the Company is unable to determine that proved reserves have been found, the well is assumed to be impaired and its costs are charged to expense. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 the Company had $0 in capitalized costs pending determination.

Other Dispositions

Upon disposition or retirement of property and equipment other than oil and gas properties, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss thereon, if any, is credited or charged to expense. The Company recognizes the gain or loss on the sale of either a part of a proved oil and gas property or of an entire proved oil and gas property constituting a part of a field upon the sale or other disposition of such. The unamortized cost of the property or group of properties, a part of which was sold or otherwise disposed of, is apportioned to the interest sold and interest retained on the basis of the fair value of those interests.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35, long lived assets, such as oil and gas properties and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount of the fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated or depleted.

Stock Options

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company accounts for stock options in accordance with revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R) (ASC 718 and 505). Accordingly, stock compensation expense has been recognized in the statement of operations based on the grant date fair value of the options for the period ended December 31, 2006 and thereafter.

Under SFAS 123(R) (ASC 718 and 505), the fair value of options is estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option-pricing model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Volatility is determined using historical stock prices over a period consistent with the expected term of the option. The Company utilizes the guidelines of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) of the Securities and Exchange Commission relative to “plain vanilla” options in determining the expected term of option grants. SAB 107 permits the expected term of “plain vanilla” options to be calculated as the average of the option’s vesting term and contractual period.


 
5

 

 
The Company has used this method in determining the expected term of all options. The Company has several awards that provide for graded vesting. The Company recognizes compensation cost for awards with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The amount of compensation expense recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the grant date value of the award that is vested at that date.

Concentrations of Credit Risk Arising From Cash Deposits in Excess of Insured Limits

The Company maintains its cash balances in one financial institution located in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for up to $250,000.  At September 30, 2011, the Company’s cash balances were $1,016,662, which substantially exceeds $250,000.

Offering Related Expenses

The Company expenses marketing-related offering expenses as these are incurred.  Marketing expenses totaled $143,790 and $3,525 in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying cash value and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaids, accounts payable, notes payable and advances payable approximate their fair value. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risk arising from these financial instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The codification has changed the manner in which U.S. GAAP guidance is referenced, but did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820. ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820 to now require: (1) a reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements. In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of existing disclosures. ASU 2010-06 became effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application was permitted. The Company began complying with the additional disclosures required by this guidance upon its adoption in January 2010.

Also in January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-03, “Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas—Oil and Gas Reserve Estimation and Disclosures.” This ASU amends the “Extractive Industries—Oil and Gas” Topic of the Codification to align the oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements in this Topic with the SEC’s Release No. 33-8995, “Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting Requirements (Final Rule),” discussed below. The amendments became effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2009, and the adoption of these provisions on December 31, 2009 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

On December 31, 2008, the SEC, issued Release No. 33-8995, “Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting Requirements (Final Rule),” which revises the disclosures required by oil and gas companies. The SEC disclosure requirements for oil and gas companies have been updated to include expanded disclosure for oil and gas activities, and certain definitions have also been changed that will impact the determination of oil and gas reserve quantities. The provisions of this final rule are effective for registration statements filed on or after January 1, 2010, and for annual reports for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2009.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value,” related to fair value measurement of liabilities. This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more valuation techniques. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period beginning after issuance.

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This guidance established a new hierarchy of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Codification is the sole source for authoritative U.S. GAAP and supersedes all accounting standards in U.S. GAAP, except for those issued by the SEC. The guidance was effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 855 “Subsequent Events,” which sets forth: (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The guidance was effective on a prospective basis for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB updated its guidance under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” related to estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Also in April 2009, the FASB updated its guidance under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” which requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance also requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. The guidance was effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.

The FASB updated its guidance under ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” in April 2009, which addresses application issues on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance was effective for business combinations occurring on or after the beginning of the first annual period on or after December 15, 2008.

In June 2008, the FASB updated its guidance under ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” This guidance clarified that all unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive non-forfeitable dividends are participating securities and provides guidance on how to allocate earnings to participating securities and compute basic earnings per share using the two-class method. This guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” which changed the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how derivative instruments and related items affect an entity’s financial position, operations and cash flows. This guidance was effective as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2009.

6.           COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

As of September 30, 2011, neither the Company nor any of its properties is subject to any material pending legal proceedings.

Contingencies

As the managing general partner of the Company’s investment partnerships, the Company’s operations are subject to environmental protection regulations established by federal, state, and local agencies that may necessitate significant capital outlays that, in turn, would materially affect the financial position and business operations of the Company. These regulations, enacted to protect against waste, conserve natural resources and prevent pollution, could necessitate spending funds on environmental protection measures, rather than on drilling operations.  Because these laws and regulations change frequently and are becoming increasingly more stringent, the costs to the Company of compliance with existing and future environmental regulations and the overall impact on the Company’s operations or financial condition cannot be predicted, but are likely to increase. Furthermore, if any penalties or prohibitions were imposed on the Company for violating such regulations, the Company’s operations could be adversely affected.

7.           STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Authorization to Issue Shares — Preferred and Common

The Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock that are designated as common and preferred stock. As of September 30, 2011, the Company was authorized to issue 155,000,000 shares of stock, 150,000,000 being designated as common stock of which 29,003,633 were outstanding, and 5,000,000 shares designated as preferred stock, of which 0 shares were outstanding.

Stock Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company did not issue any options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, and no outstanding options were exercised during this period.

8.           SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated events and transactions since the balance sheet date of September 30, 2011.

On October 5, 2011, the Company entered into a Turnkey Drilling Contract with the 2011 Bayou City Year End Drilling Program, L.P..  Under the terms of the Turnkey Drilling Contract the limited partnership will acquire working interest in and under take to drill the Loma Blanca Prospect Well in Brooks County, Texas and will acquire an interest in the BYCX Opportunity Fund I, LLC.  The fees have not yet been paid to the Company under the Turnkey Drilling Contract.

Overview

Bayou City Exploration, Inc., (the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, was organized in November 1994, as Gem Source, Incorporated, and subsequently changed the name to Blue Ridge Energy, Inc. in May 1996. In September 2005, the Company changed its name to Bayou City Exploration, Inc. The Company’s corporate headquarters are located at 632 Adams Street, Suite 700, Bowling Green, Kentucky 42101.

The Company is engaged in the oil and gas business primarily in the gulf coast of Texas, East Texas, South Texas, and Louisiana.  During 2010, the Company changed its core business strategy.  The Company’s primary business objective now focuses on the management of partnerships that are created to explore and develop oil and gas reserves.  Pursuant to this new business plan, the Company manages partnerships that purchase interests in exploratory wells as well as interests in producing oil and gas properties with undrilled reserves.  This growth strategy is based on selling partnership interests to third party investors who will essentially assume the costs associated with the drilling of wells in exchange for interests in a partnership that holds working interest in the wells they finance.  The Company acts as the Managing General Partner for these partnerships and maintains a partnership interest or a working interest position outside of the partnership in each program for which we pay our proportionate share of the actual cost of drilling, testing, and completing the project well(s) and subsequent operating expenses to the extent that we retain a portion of the working interest.  The Company believes this strategy will reduce of financial risk for the Company in drilling new wells, while still receiving income from present production in addition to income from any new successful new drilling.

When the Company undertakes a drilling project, a calculation is made to estimate the costs associated with drilling the well(s).  The Company then forms and sells units in a partnership that will acquire working interest in the well(s) and undertake drilling operations. The Company typically enters into turnkey contracts with the partnerships it manages, pursuant to which we agree to undertake the drilling and completion of the partnerships’ well(s), for a fixed price, to a specific formation or depth.  As such, each partnership essentially prepays a fixed amount for the drilling and completion of a specified number of wells that the Company records as revenue.

The investment entitles the Company to 0.005% of the joint venture.

Critical Accounting Policies

Since the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, there have been no changes to the Company’s Critical Accounting Policies.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010

The Company had a net income of $264,634 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to net loss of $60,179 for the same period in 2010. The income per common share was $0.01 per share during the third quarter of 2011 compared to income per common share of ($0.00) per share during the third quarter of 2010.  The increase in net income in the third quarter of 2011 was a result of a $419,686 net income from recognizing turnkey income from two limited partnerships the Company manages, offset by a $76,262 decrease in oil and gas sales. Expenses from the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2011 include a $35,938 increase in marketing costs, a $2,227 decrease in general and administrative costs, a $18,862 decrease in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, a $6,776 decrease in lease operating expenses and production taxes, and an increase of $1,006 for dry hole and abandonment costs.

Operating Revenues

Operating revenues from oil and gas sales were $21,822 during the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $98,084 during the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The decrease was a result of a decline in production from the wells in which the Company currently holds interest and the loss of a producing well.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs are reflected as lease operating expenses and production taxes on the Company’s statement of operations and were $10,923 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $17,699 during the three months ended September 30, 2010.  These costs decreased $6,776 during the period because the Company owned interests in five oil and gas wells that were in full operation during the third quarter of 2010, whereas during the same period in 2011, the Company only held  interest in four operating wells in which reserves are depleting.

Other Operating Expenses

The Company’s general and administrative expenses decreased to $119,171 for the third quarter 2011 as compared to $121,398 for the third quarter of 2010. The Company incurred only $256 in travel expenses in the third quarter 2011 as compared to $12,232 for the same period in 2010.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization costs also decreased by $18,862 during the three months ended September 30, 2011, to $6,311 from $25,173 for the same period in 2010.  This decrease is attributable largely to the sale of equipment and piping by the operating company that was reflected as a credit to tangible drilling costs.  Such decreases in expenses were offset by an increase in marketing costs of $35,938 for the third quarter 2011 as compared to the same quarter in 2010.

Other Income (Expenses)

Net other income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $0 as compared to $9,532 for the same period in 2010.  Income reported in 2010 was attributable to collection of prior bad debts.

Income Tax Provision

Consistent with the prior period, the Company did not record a provision for income taxes due to the sufficient net operating loss carry forwards available via the federal income tax carry forward provisions. A valuation allowance continues to be recorded due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to utilize the deferred tax assets.

Comparison of the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010

The Company had a net loss of $180,961 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to net income of $870,292 for the same period in 2010. The loss per common share was $0.01 during the first three quarters of 2011 compared to income per common share of $0.03 during the third quarter of 2010.  The net loss in the third quarter of 2011 was a result of a $322,456 increase in operating costs and expenses in the first three quarters of 2011 as compared to the first three quarters of 2010, including $140,265 increase in marketing costs, a $147,577 increase in general and administrative costs, $23,705 in dry hole and abandonment costs, and a $17,958 increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, slightly offset by a $7,049 decrease in lease operating expenses and production taxes.

Operating Revenues

Operating revenues included $419,686 of net turnkey drilling contract revenue from the Company’s managed limited partnerships in the nine months ended September 30, 2011; no similar revenues were earned in the same period for 2010.  Oil and gas sales were $95,864 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $226,070 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Production from the wells in which the Company currently holds decreased considerably from the 2010 nine month period as a result of depletion and the loss of a producing well.


 
13

 

 
Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs are reflected as lease operating expenses and production taxes on the Company’s statements of operations. Costs decreased $7,049 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.  The decrease is attributable reduced production tax obligations as a result of depletion of the producing wells the Company holds.

Other Operating Expenses

The Company’s general and administrative expenses increased to $435,221 for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $287,644 for 2010. This increase of $147,577 was primarily due to a significant increase in salary paid to the President and Chief Executive Officer, which occurred in the third quarter of 2010.  In addition, the Company incurred $143,790 in marketing costs during the first three quarters of 2011, while there was $3,525 in marketing costs for the first three quarters of 2010, and depreciation, depletion and amortization costs increased $17,958 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, to $61,895 from $43,937 for the same period in 2010.  This increase is attributable to the third party reserve report analysis conducted for the year ending December 31, 2010 that showed evidence that the reserves for the Company’s existing wells were significantly less than previously reported by the well’s operator in prior years.

Other Income (Expenses)

Net other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $200 as compared to $22,028 for the same period in 2010.  The income recorded in 2010 was attributable to sale of equipment from wells that ceased production by the Company in 2010 and for collection of debts that were previously recognized as uncollectable.

Income Tax Provision

Consistent with the prior period, the Company did not record a provision for income taxes due to the sufficient net operating loss carry forwards available via the federal income tax carry forward provisions. A valuation allowance continues to be recorded due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to utilize the deferred tax assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s cash balance as of June 30, 2011 was $983,789.  At that time, there were accounts receivable of $8,153, and prepaid expenses $35,520, which included $5,520 for a deposit on an office lease and $30,000 for a deposit on a business-related conference.  Cash on hand at September 30, 2011, was primarily from turnkey fees received from the partnerships the Company manages, offset by costs associated with the purchase of oil and gas properties. Current liabilities as of September 30, 2011 totaled $1,358,662 including $1,007,360 in deferred liability, which includes the Turnkey Fees less prepaid expenses for the Company’s investment partnerships, $251,301 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and an aggregate $100,000 in accounts payable and notes payable to related parties.

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $57,896. A $180,961 net loss from the first three quarters of 2011 was primarily a result of the Company’s inability to record all turnkey fees to income because the outcomes of the wells in most of the managed limited partnerships were still unknown.  In addition, accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $79,204 during the period due to unanticipated additional operations conducted on a well owned by a partnership with which the Company has a turnkey agreement.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $549,977 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, which was a result of turnkey fees the Company received from its investment partnerships. The Company did not receive any cash from turnkey fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.


 
14

 

 
The Company’s primary source of cash during the first nine months of 2011 was from turnkey fees attributable to its investment partnerships and production from the Company’s four producing wells.  The total production capability of the four currently producing wells and their cash flows is known, and diminishing.  Revenues from currently producing wells will not be sufficient to sustain the Company’s operations on a going forward basis.  However, the Company believes its cash balance is sufficient to fund its operations for the next nine months and it plans to continue to sponsor and manage investment partnerships to continue to fund its operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and as such, is not required to provide the information required under this Item.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2011, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the appropriate management on a basis that permits timely decisions regarding disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer, our principal financial officer and our management concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2011 were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our third quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our disclosure controls and procedures provide our principal executive officer and principal financial officer with reasonable assurances that our disclosure controls and procedures will achieve their objectives. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting can or will prevent all human error. A control system, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Furthermore, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are internal resource constraints, and the benefit of controls must be weighed relative to their corresponding costs. Because of the limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide complete assurance that all control issues and instances of error, if any, within our company are detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur due to human error or mistake. Additionally, controls, no matter how well designed, could be circumvented by the individual acts of specific persons within the organization. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated objectives under all potential future conditions.
