(the &ldquo;<u>Co</u><u>mpany</u>&rdquo;) received a letter dated September 10, 2018, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;<u>SEC</u>&rdquo;). In the letter, the SEC has stated that the Company is not in compliance with its reporting requirements under Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the &ldquo;<u>Exchange Act</u>&rdquo;) and, as a result, if, within fifteen (15) days after the date of the letter, the Company does not file all required reports, then the SEC may, without further notice, initiate an administrative proceeding to revoke the Company&rsquo;s registration under the Exchange Act and impose a trading suspension on the Company&rsquo;s common stock. The Company does not believe that it will be able to file all required reports by the end of such fifteen (15) day period. The Company is evaluating this situation and its next course of action.</p>
