Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
 
Background to the Restatements
 
On November 6, 2013, our Board of Directors concluded, in consultation with management and after discussion with our independent registered public accounting firm (Accell Audit & Compliance P.A.), that, due to the omission in the financial statements of a convertible debenture totaling $200,000, which was assumed by us in connection with the reverse merger with Techmine Industries, Inc. on June 25, 2013, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 should no longer be relied upon.
 
Effects of Restatement
 
The effect of the restatement is an increase to our current liabilities in the amount of $200,000 and a decrease in additional paid in capital for the same amount. Management has considered the effect of the restatements on our prior conclusions as to the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Management has concluded that a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting existed as of June 30, 2013 and that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for such periods were therefore not effective. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
