ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, and under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

On March 16, 2005, immediately after completion of the audit and filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company was advised by its independent registered public accounting firm, Hein & Associates LLP (“Hein”), of the discovery of an error in the 2004 financial statements relating to the July 2004 modification of the share option plan by the board of directors of Global. Harken, after consultation with the audit committee of the board of directors, determined that the error was material and required restatement of the previously issued Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and selected quarterly financial information for the quarter ended September 30, 2004.

 

Based on its evaluation as of December 31, 2004, management concluded that, because its consolidated financial statements required restatement as a result of the discovery of an error in the 2004 financial statements relating to the July 2004 modification of the share option plan by the board of directors of the Company’s subsidiary, Global, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004.

 

Also based on the Company’s assessment, the Company identified significant deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that could have resulted in errors in the accounting and/or the disclosures associated with:

 

  1. Accounting for the Company’s initial investment in IBA and a subsequent derivative contract of IBA, and

 

  2. Income tax disclosures

 

The Company concluded that, in the aggregate, these significant deficiencies, along with the previous restatement associated with Global’s July 2004 modification of its share option plan as described above,

constituted a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 which was associated with the Company’s level of complex transactions and the lack of adequate accounting personnel to ensure ongoing compliance with relevant accounting and financial reporting requirements. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Audit Standard No.2 or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that material misstatements of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected by company personnel in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company hired additional experienced accounting personnel, specifically the Global Controller, the Global Assistant Controller and the GEM Vice President – Finance and Chief Financial Officer, as part of our efforts to remediate the material weakness that existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. We are continuing to evaluate our need for additional experienced accounting personnel to ensure that we have appropriate staffing in our financial reporting function with qualifications for evaluating ongoing compliance with relevant accounting and financial reporting requirements.

 

The personnel additions described above represent changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
