Staff Comment: |
Your certifications omit the internal control over financial reporting language from the introductory portion of paragraph 4 as well as paragraph 4(b) of the certifications. Please file amendments to your March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 Forms 10-Q to include certifications that do not exclude the introductory portion of paragraph 4 as well as paragraph 4(b). Please ensure that the revised certifications refer to the Form 10-Q/A and are currently dated. |
