SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's officers and directors, and certain persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities (collectively, " Reporting Persons "), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership (" Section 16 Reports ") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the " SEC "). Reporting Persons are required by the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16 Reports they file. Based solely on its review of the copies of such Section 16 Reports received by the Company, or written representations received from certain Reporting Persons, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to the Company's Reporting Persons during and with respect to the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016 have been complied with on a timely basis, except that the Forms 4 filed by Messrs. Tenzer and Fata and the Forms 3 filed by the Company’s two 10% shareholders who appear under “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” were not filed on a timely basis.

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Director Independence

 

We do not have any independent directors.

 

Board of Directors’ Meetings

 

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016, our Board did not hold any meetings but adopted resolutions pursuant to unanimous written consents. We encourage, but do not require, our Board members to attend the annual meeting of shareholders.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role on Risk Oversight

   

Mr. Tenzer serves as Chairman of the Board.

 

Our Board is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The Board receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding the Company’s assessment of risks. The Board focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees the Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.  

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted the Code of Ethical Conduct that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or person performing similar functions. The Code of Ethical Conduct is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote honest and ethical conduct and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We will disclose any substantive amendments to the Code of Ethical Conduct or any waivers, explicit or implicit, from a provision of the Code in a current report on Form 8-K. Upon request to our President and CEO, Marc Yahr, we will provide without charge, a copy of our Code of Ethical Conduct.
