On March 12, 2014, the Company announced in a regulatory filing that, "as a result of the Corporation's increased stock price and overall market value as of the end of the second quarter of 2013, the Corporation became subject to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Accordingly, the Corporation is now required to have an audit of its internal controls over financial reporting. The Corporation believes material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting existed as of December 31, 2013, principally related to general controls over its information technology, including user access and change management activities and to overall controls related to its payroll system and related processes."
