EXPLANATORY NOTE
OVERVIEW
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 3 on Form 10-K/A to amend Part II, Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2009, which was filed on March 1, 2010. The purpose of this amendment is to add additional language clarifying that the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and to disclose whether based on this evaluation the disclosure controls and procedures were deemed effective or ineffective as of November 30, 2009. In addition, a revision has been made to Schedules 31.1 and 31.2, for both David Edell and Stephen A. Heit, respectively, adding additional language in paragraph four in compliance with Item 601 of Regulation S-K.
Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, The Company’s fiscal 2009 annual report is required to be accompanied by a “Section 404 Formal Report” by management on the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting. The Company has engaged the services of CBIZ Risk & Advisory Services, LLC to assist in the development and implementation of procedures to determine and test the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. The filing of the Company’s November 30, 2010 annual report must contain an opinion by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls. The Company’s officers are continually working to evaluate and confirm that the Company’s data processing software systems and other procedures are effective and that the information created by the Company’s systems adequately confirm the validity of the information upon which the Company relies.
The Company continually takes a thorough review of the effectiveness of its internal controls and procedures, including financial reporting. It is working to strengthen all of its procedures wherever necessary.
An evaluation was performed under the supervision of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of November 30, 2009, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in 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, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are required to assess the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2009 and report, based on that assessment, whether the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are effective.
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Internal control over reporting, because of its inherent limitations, may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
