Our unaudited financial statements are stated in United States dollars (U.S. $) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States Dollars.

As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “Blue Sphere” or the “Company” mean Blue Sphere Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

On May 18, 2015, Blue Sphere filed a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting that it had entered into an agreement to acquire one hundred percent (100%) of the share capital of four entities, Agricerere S.r.l., Agrielektra S.r.l., Agrisorse S.r.l. and Gefa S.r.l (collectively, the “SPVs”), that own and operate anaerobic digestion biogas plants for the production of electricity located in Italy (the “May Form 8-K”). The closing of the acquisition of the SPVs was subject to certain conditions precedent, as more fully described in the May Form 8-K, but which included obtaining consent from the acquired parties’ creditor to the acquisition and the resulting change of control, and securing a mezzanine loan facility. Upon attainment of the conditions precedent, the Company closed the acquisition of the SPVs on December 14, 2015 and filed a Current Report on Form 8-K on December 17, 2015 reporting that it had consummated the acquisition of the SPVs.

On August 8, 2016, the Company filed a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period from April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016, 2016 (the “Quarterly Report”). As explained in the Quarterly Report, the interim financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Quarterly Report (the “Quarterly Report Financial Statements”), the Company accounted for the acquisition of the SPVs using the purchase method of accounting. Under this method, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, with the excess of the purchase price amount being allocated to goodwill.

The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “amendment”) on Form 10-Q/A to (i) file interim financial statements for the period from April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016 to reflect the restatement of its consolidated financial statements for the period from April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016 due to the application of the equity method of accounting for the investments in Agricerere S.r.l., Agrielektra S.r.l., Agrisorse S.r.l. and Gefa S.r.l. The Company applied the equity method because the Framework EBITDA Guarantee Agreement between the SPVs and Austep whereby Austep operates, maintains and supervises each biogas plant, prevents the Company from exercising a controlling influence over operating policies of the plants. Under this method, our equity investment is reflected as an investment in non-consolidated subsidiaries on our Condensed Balance Sheets and the net earnings or losses of the investments is reflected as equity in net earnings of non-consolidated companies on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company believes that, while the financial statements reflect substantial modifications, the revenues and expenses previously reported are now reflected in a line item for the Company’s non-consolidated wholly-owned subsidiaries and the modifications result in no impact to the Company’s operational results. Therefore the modifications are substantially a matter of presentation.

In addition, this amendment includes modifications (i) to reflect the interest expense on the unpaid balance of the Purchase Price due the acquisition of the SPVs, (ii) to reclassify the proceeds from an offering which were previously recorded as current liability as proceeds on account of shares in Shareholders Deficiency, (iii) to reflect the effects of accounting and reporting errors in calculation of issuance of shares and issuance of shares for services, and (iv) to amend our disclosure in Part I, Item 4 “Controls and Procedures,” of the Original Report to change the conclusions of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2016 in light of management’s conclusion that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting contained a material weakness at June 30, 2016 which will be remediated by the end of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. These accounting and reporting errors and the related adjustments resulted in an overstatement of net loss of $522 thousand for the period from January 1, 2016 to March 31, 2016 and an understatement of additional paid-in capital of $527 thousand, an overstatement of accumulated other comprehensive income of $38 thousand and overstatement of accumulated deficit of $531 thousand as of June 31, 2016.

Except as described above, this Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-Q/A does not amend any other information set forth in the Quarterly Report. However, for the convenience of the reader, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A restates in its entirety, as amended, the Quarterly Report. This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A is presented as of the filing date of the Quarterly Report and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update information in the Quarterly Report, except as described above.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Blue Sphere Corporation (the “Company”). These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results that could be expected for the entire fiscal year.

NOTE 2 – GENERAL

Blue Sphere Corporation (“the Company”), together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Eastern Sphere Ltd. (“Eastern”), Binosphere LLC (“Binosphere”), Johnstonsphere LLC (“Johnstonsphere”), and Sustainable Energy Ltd. (“SEL”), is focused on project integration in the clean energy production and waste to energy markets.

The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on July 17, 2007 and was originally in the business of developing and promoting automotive internet sites. On February 17, 2010, the Company conducted a reverse merger, name change and forward split of its common stock, and in March 2010 current management took over operations, at which point the Company changed its business focus to become a project integrator in the clean energy production and waste to energy markets.

As of June 30, 2016, Johnstonsphere had not commenced operations.

On May 12, 2015 the Company formed Bluesphere Pavia (formerly called Bluesphere Italy S.r.l.). Italy S.r.l, a subsidiary of Eastern in order to acquire certain biogas plants located in Italy (see note 3 below).

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT IN BLUE SPHERE PAVIA

On August 18, 2015, the Company and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Eastern and Bluesphere Pavia, entered into a Long Term Mezzanine Loan Agreement (the “Helios Loan Agreement”) with Helios Italy Bio-Gas 1 L.P. (“Helios”). Under the Helios Loan Agreement, Helios will make up to $5,646,628 (€5,000,000) available to Bluesphere Pavia (the “Helios Loan”) to finance (a) ninety percent (90%) of the total required investment of the first four SVPs acquired, (b) eighty percent (80%) of the total required investment of up to three SVPs subsequently acquired, (c) certain broker fees incurred in connection with the acquisitions, and (d) any taxes associated with registration of an equity pledge agreement (as described below). Each financing of an SVP acquisition will be subject to specified conditions precedent and will constitute a separate loan under the Helios Loan Agreement. Helios may, within 90 days of a closing, require repayment of ten percent (10%) of the relevant loan and broker fees. If no such repayment is required, Helios may reduce the amount of its commitment to finance the acquisitions of the three additional SVPs to seventy to eighty percent (70-80%) of the total required investment. Helios’s commitment to provide any loan under the Helios Loan Agreement that is not utilized by June 30, 2016 will automatically cancel, unless extended in writing by Helios. Subject to specified terms, representations and warranties, the Helios Loan Agreement provides that each loan thereunder will accrue interest at a rate of 14.5% per annum, paid quarterly. Helios will also be entitled to an annual operation fee, paid quarterly. The final payment for each loan will become due no later than the earlier of (a) thirteen and one half years from the date such loan was made available to Bluesphere Pavia, and (b) the date that the Feed in Tariff license granted to the relevant SVP expires. Pursuant to the Helios Loan Agreement and an equity pledge agreement, Eastern Sphere pledged all its shares in Bluesphere Pavia to secure all loan amounts utilized under the Helios Loan Agreement.

On December 14, 2015 (“Closing Date”), and pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, dated May 14, 2015 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Bluesphere Pavia, and Volteo Energie S.p.A., Agriholding S.r.l., and Overland S.r.l. (collectively, the “Sellers”), Bluesphere Pavia completed the acquisitions of one hundred percent (100%) of the share capital of Agricerere S.r.l., Agrielektra S.r.l., Agrisorse S.r.l. and Gefa S.r.l. (each, an “SPV” and collectively, the “SPVs”) from the Sellers. Each SPV owns and operates an anaerobic digestion biogas plant in Italy for the production and sale of electricity to Gestore del Servizi Energetici GSE, S.p.A., a state-owned company, pursuant to a power purchase agreement. Pursuant to the Italy Projects Agreement, the Company also issued a corporate guarantee to the Sellers, whereby the Company will secure the obligations of Bluesphere Pavia under the Italy Projects Agreement.

BLUE SPHERE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT IN BLUE SPHERE PAVIA (continued)

Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company to pay $5,646,628 (€5,200,000) (the “Purchase Price”), subject to certain post-closing adjustments, to acquire the share capital of the SPVs. The Purchase Price for each SPV was determined based on a Base Line EBITDA guaranteed by the Sellers and an Equity IRR Target calculated on the Purchase Price of no less than twenty-five percent (25%). Fifty percent (50%) of the Purchase Price, adjusted for certain post-closing adjustments and closing costs, in the amount of $2,143,181 (€1,952,858) was paid at closing, and the balance is due to the Sellers on the third anniversary of the closing date. The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the Purchase Price, prior to and after closing date, and any variation of EBITDA results in the 18 months following the closing date , will be promised by a note from each Seller, to be paid on the third anniversary of the closing, along with interest on the unpaid balance due at an annual rate of two percent (2%). The portion of the Purchase Price paid at closing was primarily financed by a loan of $3,149,081 (€2,900,000) pursuant to the Helios Loan Agreement whereas the Company repaid $342,192 (€310,204) during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

In accordance with a Framework EBITDA Guarantee Agreement, dated July 17, 2015 (the “EBITDA Agreement”), between the Company and Austep S.p.A. (“Austep”), Austep will operate, maintain and supervise each biogas plant owned by the SPVs. In addition, Austep will guarantee a monthly aggregate EBITDA of $204,147 (€188,000) from the four SPVs for the initial six months following the acquisition, and thereafter Austep will guarantee an annual aggregate EBITDA of $4,082,946 (€3,760,000) from the four SPVs. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements with Austep, the Company will receive the guaranteed levels of EBITDA and Austep will receive ninety (90%) of the revenue in excess of these levels.

The Company applied the equity method of accounting for those investments because the Framework EBITDA Guarantee Agreement between the Company and Austep S.p.A. (“Austep”) whereas Austep operates, maintains and supervises each biogas plants prevents us from exercising a controlling influence over operating policies of the plants. Under this method, our equity investment is reflected as an investment in non-consolidated subsidiaries on our Condensed Balance Sheets and the net earnings or losses of the investments is reflected as equity in net earnings of non-consolidated companies on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

NOTE 4 – CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2016 and for the six and three months then ended have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States relating to the preparation of financial statements for interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six and three months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

The September 30, 2015 Condensed Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015.

NOTE 5 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2015, are applied consistently in these financial statements except for the following:

Business combinations and Goodwill

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Under this method, the Company allocates the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, with the excess of the purchase price amount being allocated to goodwill. Acquisition-related and integration costs associated to the business combination are expensed as incurred. Changes in estimates associated with future income tax assets after measurement period are recognized as income tax expense with prospective application to all business combinations regardless of the date of acquisition. Goodwill for each reporting unit is assessed for impairment at least annually, or when an event or circumstance occurs that more likely than not reduces the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recorded when the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value and is determined as the difference between the goodwill’s carrying amount and its implied fair value.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 5 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Investment in non-consolidated and affiliated companies

Investments in non-consolidated and affiliated companies that are not controlled but over which the Company can exercise significant influence (generally, entities in which the Company holds approximately between 20% to 100% of the voting rights of the investee) are presented using the equity method of accounting. Profits on intercompany sales, not realized outside the Company, are eliminated. The Company discontinues applying the equity method when its investment (including advances and loans) is reduced to zero and the Company has not guaranteed obligations of the affiliate or otherwise committed to provide further financial support to the affiliate.

Investments in preferred shares, which are not in substance common stock, are recorded on a cost basis according to ASC 323-10-15-13, “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures - In-substance Common Stock” and ASC 323-10-40-1, “Investment -Equity Method and Joint Ventures - Investee Capital Transactions”.

A change in the Company’s proportionate share of an investee’s equity, resulting from issuance of common or in-substance common shares by the investee to third parties, is recorded as a gain or loss in the consolidated income statements in accordance with ASC 323-10-40-1.

Investments in non-marketable equity securities of entities in which the Company does not have control or the ability to exercise significant influence over their operation and financial policies, are recorded at cost (generally when the Company holds less than 20% of the voting rights).

Management evaluates investments in affiliated companies, partnerships and other non-marketable equity securities for evidence of other-than-temporary declines in value. Such evaluation is dependent on the specific facts and circumstances. Accordingly, in determining whether other-than-temporary declines exist, management evaluates various indicators for other-than-temporary declines and evaluates financial information (e.g. budgets, business plans, financial statements, etc.). During 2015 and 2014, no material impairment was recognized.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of non-monetary and separately identifiable assets, which can be controlled and are expected to generate future economic benefits. Such assets are recognized at acquisition and/or production cost, including directly attributable expenses to make the asset ready for use, net of accumulated amortization charges and any impairment losses. The costs incurred internally to develop new services and platforms are considered intangible assets generated internally and are recognized as assets only if the following requirements are met:

the cost incurred for the development of the assets can be reliably measured;

the entity has the intention, the availability of financial resources, the ability to complete the assets and to use or sell them;

Capitalized development costs include only expenses incurred that can be directly attributed to the process of developing new products and services.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 5 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives and are tested for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for intangible assets with a finite useful lives are reviewed at least at each reporting date.

Changes in expected useful lives, or in the way the future economic benefits will be generated by the assets, are either recognized through a change in the period or in the amortization method and are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization charges for intangible assets with a finite useful life are classified in the statement of income, in the costs appropriate for the function of the related intangible assets.

Long-Lived Assets

When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets, such as capital assets and intangible assets, may not be recoverable, undiscounted estimated cash flows are projected over their remaining term and compared to the carrying amount. To the extent that such projections indicate that future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying amounts of related assets, a charge is recorded to reduce the carrying amount to the projected future discounted cash flows.

NOTE 6 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had approximately $533,000 in cash and cash equivalents, approximately $10,525,000 in negative working capital, a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $8,320,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $51,385,000. Management anticipates their business will require substantial additional investments that have not yet been secured. Management is continuing in the process of fund raising in the private equity markets as the Company will need to finance future activities. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions and revenue from operations. These unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

NOTE 7 – NEWLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

No new accounting standards have been adopted since the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 was filed.

Company Overview

Summary of Current Operations

We are an international Independent Power Producer (IPP) that is globally active in the clean energy production and waste-to-energy markets. We are becoming a key player in these rapidly growing markets by developing or acquiring projects with clean energy technologies, including but not limited to waste-to-energy facilities that generate clean energy, such as electricity, natural gas, heat, compost and other by-products. These markets provide tremendous opportunity, insofar as there is a virtually endless supply of waste and organic material that can be used to generate power and valuable by-products. In particular, the disposal of organic material to landfills in most parts of the world is a costly problem with environmentally-damaging consequences. We seek to offer a cost-effective, environmentally-safe alternative.

We are currently developing or operating, as applicable, the following projects:

United States

•

Charlotte, NC Waste to Energy Anaerobic Digester 5.2 MW Plant

•

Johnston, RI Waste to Energy Anaerobic Digester 3.2 MW Plant

Italy

•

Soc. agr. AGRICERERE srl – Tromello (Pavia) 999 KW Plant

•

Soc. agr. AGRIELEKTRA srl – Alagna (Pavia) 999 KW Plant

•

Soc. agr. AGRISORSE srl - Garlasco (Pavia) 999 KW Plant

•

Soc. agr. GEFA srl – Dorno (Pavia) 999 KW Plant

We have also entered into nonbinding letters of intent to acquire additional biogas facilities in Italy and construct and develop waste-to-energy facilities in the Netherlands, and we continue to evaluate a pipeline of similar projects in a less mature phase.

Results of Operations

General

On December 14, 2015, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Bluesphere Pavia completed the acquisitions of one hundred percent (100%) of the share capital of Agricerere S.r.l., Agrielektra S.r.l., Agrisorse S.r.l. and Gefa S.r.l . (each, an “SPV” and collectively, the “SPVs”). Each SPV owns and operates an anaerobic digestion biogas plant in Italy for the production and sale of electricity to Gestore del Servizi Energetici GSE, S.p.A., a state-owned company, pursuant to a power purchase agreement. Our results of operation and have been significantly affected by this transaction. The Company applied the equity method of accounting for those investments because the Framework EBITDA Guarantee Agreement between the Company and Austep whereas Austep operates, maintains and supervises each biogas plants prevents us from exercising a controlling influence over operating policies of the plants. Under this method, our equity investment is reflected as an investment in non-consolidated subsidiaries on our Condensed Balance Sheets and the net earnings or losses of the investments is reflected as equity in net earnings of non-consolidated companies on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Deferred Revenue

$1,481,900 of development fees and reimbursements for the North Carolina and Rhode Island projects are recorded as deferred revenue. Upon successful completion of the projects, this amount will be recorded as revenue.

Results of Operations – For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 were $2,423,000, as compared to $2,439,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015.

Net Loss

We incurred a net loss of $2,812,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, as compared to a net loss of $3,133,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in net loss is mainly attributable to decrease in our finance expense.

Results of Operations – For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 were $4,505,000, as compared to $3,450,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

Net Loss

We incurred a net loss of $6,693,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, as compared to a net loss of $4,944,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net loss is mainly attributable to increase in Equity losses in non-consolidated subsidiaries due to the acquisition of the SPVs by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Bluesphere Pavia.

Inflation and Seasonality

In management’s opinion, our results of operations have not been materially affected by inflation or seasonality, and management does not expect that inflation risk or seasonality would cause material impact on our operations in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements. No new accounting standards have been adopted since the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 was filed. The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2015 are applied consistently in these financial statements, except for the following:

Business Combinations and Goodwill

Acquisition-related and integration costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. Changes in estimates associated with future income tax assets after measurement period are recognized as income tax expense with prospective application to all business combinations regardless of the date of acquisition.

Goodwill for each reporting unit is assessed for impairment at least annually, or when an event or circumstance occurs that more likely than not reduces the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recorded when the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value and is determined as the difference between the goodwill’s carrying amount and its implied fair value.

b. Investment in non-consolidated and affiliated companies

c. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of non-monetary and separately identifiable assets, which can be controlled and are expected to generate future economic benefits. Such assets are recognized at acquisition and/or production cost, including directly attributable expenses to make the asset ready for use, net of accumulated amortization charges and any impairment losses. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives and are tested for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for intangible assets with a finite useful lives are reviewed at least at each reporting date. (see Note 5 to the Financial Statements).

d. Long-Lived Assets

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

As of June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $533,000, as compared to $161,000 as of September 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2016, we had a working capital deficit of $10,525,000, as compared to $7,542,000 as of September 30, 2015. The increase in our working capital deficit is mainly attributable to the increase in our deferred revenues from joint ventures in the amount of $3,975,000, increase in our current maturities of long term loans in the amount of $320,000 and increase in our accounts payables in the amount of $533,000. The increase in our working capital deficit was mitigated by an increase in our other current assets in the amount of $1,621,000.

Net cash used in operating activities was $2,842,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, as compared to cash from operating activities of $198,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

Net cash used in investing activities was $60,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1,408,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, as compared to approximately $48,000 used in financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

We have principally financed our operations through the sale of our common stock and warrants and the issuance of convertible debt, including the Debenture Offering, February Offering and June Offering described in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As at June 30, 2016, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements of any nature.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) as of the three months ended June 30, 2016. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management management’s conclusion that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting contained a material weakness at June 30, 2015 which will be remediated by the end of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016 and is in the process of determining how best to change our current system and implement a more effective system to insure that information required to be disclosed has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this issue, and is developing procedures and controls to address it to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources.

Changes in Internal Controls

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation to determine whether any change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
