PART I
 
ITEM 1.         DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
 
General

Business Marketing Services, Inc. (“BMSI”) plan of business is to publish and distribute 13 month calendars that will be marketed to businesses of all industries to hand out to their customer’s as a promotional tool and to publish and distribute industry and profession specific wall planners. BMSI would someday like to operate nationwide but is planning on initially implementing its business plan in Wenatchee and greater Seattle in the State of Washington.

Calendars:

We initially plan to print 5,000 calendars with pictures of a nature theme and 5,000 calendars with women posing in a bikini or lingerie as a second theme. Each picture will be unique and be copyrighted for use on BMSI calendars only. Our goal is to have a calendar ready for the 2009 calendar year. We will then print the name, address, logo, etc. of each customer on the front of every calendar that they order for a fee that will be viewed on all months of the year by their customers.

We believe that there is a large sector of businesses that would still like to see what some consider politically in-correct calendars that feature scantily clad women models. Businesses that cater primarily to male customers will be our primary focus for these calendars. The past decade has seen calendars of this nature disappear from circulation.  We plan to have 5,000 calendars with the pictures of thirteen women (one for each of the thirteen months) and 5,000 with thirteen nature themed pictures ready by October 15, 2008 in time for the 2009 calendar season. We plan to order 10,000 calendars in total. The calendars will then be sold and re-printed with the customers name and information on the bottom of each calendar. We have confirmed that the re-printing of the calendar with its customer’s information at the bottom can be done within seven working days and shipped to the customer within 48 hrs.

We have obtained many quotes from professional photographers. The rate would be $300.00 per photo shoot. The photographer would agree to sign a release that would allow BMSI the right to use the images for a commercial purpose. We have secured six of the models that we intend to use. The cost per photo shoot with the right to publish the images is $500 per model. The average cost to produce the photo for every month of the calendar is $800 so the entire year would cost approximately $10,400 for the photos for the woman themed calendar in year one. The photos will be re-used by BMSI in “year two” so the cost for the photos applies to year one only.
 
The photos for the nature themes have been sourced out by either location or by view of ones that can be purchased for commercial use. The cost range is $900 to $1,200 for the nature theme scenes that have been chosen as preferred locations and $1,500 to $5,000 for exclusive rights of previously taken photos. We have budgeted $13,000 for the photos for its nature themed calendars. The photos will be re-used in “year two” so the cost for the photos applies to year one only.

Wall Planners:

In addition we plan to engage in the publication and distribution of industry and profession specific wall planners. Each wall planner will measure approximately 24 x 36 inches and will contain a 13-month calendar that includes industry specific key dates and events. For each calendar, we will sell advertising space located around the perimeter of the wall planner to businesses and professionals that wish to market their products or services to the specific industry for which the wall planner is made. In addition, each wall planner has one primary sponsor that receives prominent advertising space at the top of the wall planner and is allowed to place its logo in the middle of the calendar.

We plan to initially print 3,000 wall planners for each industry group that we target and distribute them to members of the targeted industry or profession free of charge. We will generate revenue solely through the sale of advertising space on the wall planners. In our first year we would like to target the following three industries for our wall calendar: the golf industry, wedding industry and automobile industry. We are encouraged by the response that we have generated to date and intend to commence selling advertising space in the month of July 2008 for the 2009 calendar year. These wall planners will be produced upon our sale of all the available advertising space.

We will mail wall planners to members of the targeted industry or profession free of charge and on an unsolicited basis. We will obtain lists of appropriate recipients from the phone book, internet, professional lists and national statistical agencies. We will contact various professional agencies and organizations to obtain professional lists also. We will not incur any costs in producing a wall planner until all of the advertising space is sold. In this way, we ensure that the revenue generated from the production of each wall planner will be greater than our cost to produce it.

We have a vision to expand to all over America servicing every industry. If the wall planner and calendar turn out to be a successful way for the company’s customers to reach their potential customers they may re-order on an annual basis. The company intends to send out special offers to previous customers in advance to encourage them to re-order for the following year.
  
Advertising and Sales Strategy:

We have been gathering lists of potential advertisers for our wall planners and customers for its first calendars. If enough capital is available the company will immediately initiate its sales strategy of contacting everyone on the list and will hire a salesperson for the greater Seattle area.

We plan to generate revenue solely through the sale of advertising space on our wall planners and from the sale of our calendars.  The amount of advertising revenue that we generate is directly proportional to the number of wall planners and calendars we produce and the number of advertising spaces we sell.

We have no specific contracts with any advertisers. Each time we decide to create an additional wall planner, we need to find advertisers that are targeting the industry or professional group that will receive the planners. Some advertisers may advertise on successive wall planners or specific planners reproduced in subsequent years, while others will limit their advertising to specific target groups on a one-time basis. The same is said for customers that purchase our calendars.

We may enter into advertising agreements with our advertisers in order to secure long-term commitments. It is anticipated that advertisers would receive a discount from our standard rates if they committed to placing multiple or repeated advertisements or calendar orders. While this would reduce the amount of revenue we would generate, it might allow us to produce more wall planners in a shorter time frame since we would not have to secure as many additional advertisers for each wall planner.

Competition:

Our main competitors are other businesses producing and distributing planners, calendars, trade publications, magazines and newspapers.

Wall Planners

Although there are many publishing companies in greater Seattle we are not aware of any companies producing industry specific wall planners. From time to time, non-profit and charitable organizations in various American cities sell advertising space in connection with the sale and distribution of wall planners, calendars, appointment diaries and similar products for fundraising purposes. Due to the limited production of such planners, we do not consider such endeavors as a threat to our business success.

While many office supply stores sell wall and desk planners to consumers, very few of these contain substantial third party advertisements. As well, this is unlikely to affect our business since we distribute wall planners for free.

Our chief competitive threat is other publishing companies entering the industry-specific wall planner market. There are no barriers that would prevent another company from adopting our business plan and competing with us in various cities. However, due to the number of cities in America that would be appropriate markets for wall planner distribution, we do not expect that such competition will prevent us from accomplishing our business objectives.

Trade Publications and Magazines

The chief competitive advantage that trade publications and magazines have compared to our wall planner advertising is that they are an established form of marketing with which advertisers are comfortable. The name recognition of many of these publications, and their association with a particular industry or profession, is also a contributing factor. However, many recipients of trade publications and industry specific magazines often do not read them in detail. Even if they do, most magazines are discarded
after one or several readings. As well, not every page of the magazine is read. Up to 50% of the space in these magazines is reserved for advertisements creating clusters of advertisers' messages. This reduces the frequency and the likelihood of exposure for an individual advertiser's message. Due to these facts, the target audience of an advertisement may not be exposed to an advertisement for very long, if at all.

Because our wall planners are designed as a useful office item to be affixed to a wall and contain a calendar, it would be more likely that our advertisements would be viewed by the professional targeted, as well as his or her clients, over the course of 13 months. Advertisements would likely be in plain view in an office or place of business at all times, as opposed to being hidden inside a magazine. However, we have not conducted any research to determine how many recipients of our wall planners actually use them. We plan to undertake such research once we produce and distribute a minimum of 9,000 planners. This would give us an adequate number from which to gather statistically accurate data.

Newspapers

In our main target area of greater Seattle, our main competitors will be the city's two daily newspapers: the Seattle Times and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.  We anticipate that we will be able to overcome competition from local newspapers because our advertising targets specific industry and professional groups and is comparatively inexpensive. However, for the advertiser attempting to reach the general consumer population, local newspaper advertisements may provide them with greater exposure.
 
Calendars

There are many companies that create similar nature themed calendars for re-printing with their customers name and or an advertisement on the bottom but we cannot find any companies in the State of Washington that are printing calendars with sexy woman themes. The company believes after lots of research that there is a large market for calendars with this theme.

In addition, we may face competition based on price. If our competitors lower advertising rates as they relate to their publications, then it may not be possible for us to sell advertising space on our wall planners or calendars at economically viable prices. Increased competition could result in:

     -    Lower than projected advertising fees from our wall planners or calendars;
     -    Lower profit margins on our wall planner or calendar production; and
     -    Our inability to produce additional wall planners or calendars in a timely fashion if needed
          as we do not print our wall planners until all advertising space is sold in advance.

Any one of these results could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our competitors may develop competing products and services that achieve greater market acceptance. It is also possible that new competitors may emerge and acquire significant market share. Our inability to achieve sales and revenue due to competition will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability will be affected by our ability to control our costs. We expect to hire printers on an independent contractor basis and salespersons on a salary plus commission basis, we expect to incur most costs only after we have sold enough advertising space to publish a specific wall planner. Calendars will be ordered in batches of 5,000. In the first year of business, we expect that any profit we realize from our operations will be spent on legal fees, marketing fees, salaries, printing costs, shipping costs, administrative costs etc.

The company’s President has conducted research concerning the advertising market in the State of Washington focusing on the greater Wenatchee and Seattle areas. The research, he discovered was that local advertisers typically rely on magazines, trade publications and daily newspapers to specifically target particular professions and business sectors. However, the recipients of trade publications and industry specific magazines often do not read them in detail. As well, such publications are often disposed of shortly after receipt. As a result, such a recipient may not be exposed to an advertisement for very long, if at all. In response to this, BMSI is focusing on the concept of publishing and distributing wall planners and calendars that would allow advertisers to target specific local industries. Because the wall planners and calendars were designed to be useful items to be affixed to an office wall and would contain a 13-month calendar, it would be more likely that the advertisements printed on the wall planner would be viewed by the professional targeted, as well as his or her clients and visitors, over the course of a year.

We intend to expand our wall planner and calendar production and distribution business in Washington State by targeting additional professional and industry groups in the future. The company has a vision to expand to all over America servicing every industry. If the wall planner and calendar turn out to be a successful way for the company’s customers to reach their potential customers they may re-order on an annual basis. The company intends to send out special offers to previous customers in advance to encourage them to re-order for the following year.

Government Regulation:
We do not expect any governmental regulations to have an impact on our planned business operations. Existing laws with which we must comply cover issues that include:

        -      State taxes;
        -      Pricing controls;
        -      Libel and defamation; and
        -      Copyright, trademark and patent infringement.

New laws may impact our ability to market our products in the future. However, we are not aware of any pending laws or regulations that would have an impact on our business.

We anticipate applying for trading of our common stock on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms apart. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares of common stock will be traded on the Bulletin Board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.

Holders

As of March 30, 2009 in accordance with our transfer agent records, we had 43 record holders of our Common Stock.
 
Dividends

To date, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock, when issued pursuant to this offering. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future.
 
Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

ITEM 6.         SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 relating to future events or our future performance. Actual results may materially differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this prospectus. Although management believes that the assumptions made and expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that the underlying assumptions will, in fact, prove to be correct or that actual results will not be different from expectations expressed in this report.

Plan of Operation

We need to raise additional capital in order to meet our “year one” projections. We have $10,448 cash on hand but expect to need a minimum of $111,700 in the first six months of operations in order to design, produce and print the two batches of 5,000 calendars, hire a sales person, create a website and list the company on the OTCBB Exchange. The $111,700 is based on the company producing no revenues until at least the first quarter of 2009.

We are unsure if we will be able to raise the additional funds that we will need in order to fulfill our “year one” projections. If we are unable to raise the capital in time to meet the deadline for the 2009 calendar year we intend to focus on raising the necessary funds to produce a calendar for the 2010 calendar year.

Our plan was to sell enough advertising space by October 15, 2008 to meet the deadline to complete the design, publishing and distribution of 9,000 wall planners. The 9,000 will consist of 3,000 that are golf industry specific, 3,000 that are wedding industry specific and 3,000 that are automobile industry specific. The cost to produce each batch of 3,000 wall planners is $5,500. The wall planners will only be ordered when enough advertising space is sold. The cost to ship the wall planners is $2,628.  However to date we were unable to meet such deadline and therefore our new goal is to sell such advertising space by the end of the year.

Revenues/Expenditures

The following is a summary of the expected revenue and costs resulting from the production of 5,000 13 month “nature themed” wall calendars. The calendars will be initially printed with a blank space at the bottom and has to be re-printed with a customer’s name and information on it. The company initially plans on marketing two different calendars of 5,000 each.

Revenue:
Per calendar cost to customer (minimum order of 300): $5.50 each X 5,000 = $27,500
Expenditures:
Commission to sales person: $4,125
Cost to produce the photos: $13,000
Graphic design and printing for each batch of 5,000: $13,000
Packaging and shipping: $0
General administrative expenses: $500
Total: $30,625
Gross Profit in year one: - $3,125
Gross Profit in year two: $9,875

The following is a summary of the expected revenue and costs resulting from the production of an industry specific run of 3,000 wall planners. The company initially plans on marketing three different wall planners of 3,000 each.

Revenue:
18 Advertising Spaces ($2,000 each): $36,000
Feature Ad ($10,000)
Total: $46,000

Expenditures:
Commission to sales person: $6,900 (15% of sales)
Graphic design and printing: $5,500
Packaging and shipping: $2,628
General administrative expenses: $500
Total: $15,528

Total “Year One” Projected Revenue and Expenditures:
Commission to sales person: $28,950
Salary to sales person: $12,000
Photography and models: $23,400
Graphic design and printing: $42,500
Packaging and shipping: $7,884
General administrative expenses: $5,000
Website creation and one year of hosting: $5,000
Office rent (12 months): $2,580
Miscellaneous: $2,000
Accounting: $7,000
Legal: $25,000
Total projected expenditures: $161,314
Total projected revenue: $193,000

Total estimated gross profit in “year one” if all the advertising on the wall planners and all 10,000 calendars are sold: $31,686.The company’s first year profits are impacted by “one time” costs such as the cost to take the company public and the costs associated with acquiring the photos for the calendars. The photos for the calendars will be re-used in subsequent years at no additional cost to the company.
 
Results of Operations
 
For the period from inception through December 31, 2008, we had no revenue. Expenses for the year totaled $ 32,552 resulting in a net loss of $32,552.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2008 we had 10,448 in cash.
 
While we are attempting to commence operations and produce revenues, our cash position may not be significant enough to support our daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern. While we believe in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).
 

Not applicable because we are a smaller reporting company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



To the Board of Director and shareholders



We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Business Marketing Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 and 25 days ending December 31, 2007 and from inception (December 7, 2007) through the year then ended December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Business Marketing Services, Inc. at December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 and 25 days ending December 31, 2007 and from inception (December 7, 2007) through December 31, 2008 in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Business Marketing Services, Inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.   Summary of significant accounting policies:

Industry:

Business Marketing Services, Inc. (the Company), was incorporated in the state of Delaware as of December 7, 2007. Business Marketing Services’ plan of business is to publish and distribute 13 month calendars that will be marketed to businesses of all industries to hand out to their customer’s as a promotional tool and to publish and distribute industry and profession specific wall planners.
 
The Company has adopted its fiscal year end to be December 31.

Results of Operations and Ongoing Entity:

The Company is considered to be an ongoing entity for accounting purposes; however, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's shareholders fund any shortfalls in the Company's cash-flow on a day to day basis during the time period that the Company is in the development stage.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

In addition to the stockholder funding capital short-falls, the Company anticipates interested investors that intend to fund the Company's growth.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers cash on hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions which have original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

Basis of Accounting:

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Income Taxes:

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method to measure and record deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the future income tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when in the opinion of management; it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At this time, the Company has set up an allowance for deferred taxes as there is no company history to indicate the usage of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
  
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company's financial instruments may include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and liabilities to banks and shareholders. The carrying amount of long-term debt to banks approximates fair value based on interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.  The carrying amounts of other financial instruments approximate their fair value because of short-term maturities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Concentrations of Credit Risk:

Financial instruments which potentially expose The Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of operating demand deposit accounts. The Company's policy is to place its operating demand deposit accounts with high credit quality financial institutions. At this time The Company has no deposits that are at risk.

2.   Related Party Transactions and Going Concern:

The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern in the development stage, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At this time The Company has not identified the business that it wishes to engage in.
 
The Company's shareholder funds The Company's activities while The Company takes steps to locate and negotiate with a business entity for combination; however, there can be no assurance these activities will be successful.

3.   Accounts Receivable and Customer Deposits:

Accounts receivable and Customer deposits do not exist at this time and therefore have no allowances accounted for or disclosures made.
 
4.   Use of Estimates:

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenue and expenses. Management has no reason to make estimates at this time.

5.   Revenue and Cost Recognition:

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial statement reporting. 
 
6.   Accrued Expenses:

Accrued expenses consist of accrued legal, accounting and office costs during this stage of the business.

7.   Operating Lease Agreements:

The Company has no agreements at this time.

8.   Stockholder's Equity:
     
Preferred stock includes 50,000,000 shares authorized at a par value of $0.0001, of which none are issued or outstanding.
 
Common Stock includes 200,000,000 shares authorized at a par value of $0.0001, of which 15,000,000 have been issued for the amount of $1,500 on December 07, 2007 in acceptance of the incorporation expenses for the Company.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During March 2008, the Company undertook a Section 4(2) registration under the Securities Act of 1933 to raise $42,000 in the issuance of 4,200,000 shares of common stock at $0.01 per share. The Company’s management considers this offering to be exempt under the Securities Act of 1933.  
 
9.   Required Cash Flow Disclosure for Interest and Taxes Paid:

The company has paid no amounts for federal income taxes and interest. The Company issued 15,000,000 common shares of stock to its sole shareholder in acceptance of the incorporation expenses for the Company.
 
10.  Earnings Per Share:

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per Shares". Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.
 
11.  Income Taxes:
    
The Company has available net operating loss carry-forwards for financial statement and federal income tax purposes. These loss carry-forwards expire if not used within 20 years from the year generated. The Company's management has decided a valuation allowance is necessary to reduce any tax benefits because the available benefits are more likely than not to expire before they can be used.  These net operating losses expire as the following: $3,250 at 2027 and $32,552 at 2028.
 
 The Company has available net operating loss carry-forwards for financial statement and federal income tax purposes. These loss carry-forwards expire if not used within 20 years from the year generated. The Company's management has decided a valuation allowance is necessary to reduce any tax benefits because the available benefits are more likely than not to expire before they can be used.
 
The Company's management determines if a valuation allowance is necessary to reduce any tax benefits when the available benefits are more likely than not to expire before they can be used.  The tax based net operating losses create tax benefits in the amount of $7,160 from inception through December 31, 2008.
 
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets as of December 31, 2008 are as follows:
  
Deferred tax assets:

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.  Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to 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.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008.  The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of December 31, 2008, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective for the purposes for which it is intended.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
