Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee consisting of Messrs. Johnson, O’Meara, Jr. and Lee. The Audit Committee held four meetings during the year. Mr. Lee, an employee of an affiliate of BLM, may not be considered to be an independent member of the Audit Committee under the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable rules relating to audit committees.
The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of any independent registered public accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services. The Committee reviews with such auditors the periodic SEC filings, the scope and result of their audit and the result of the auditors’ evaluation of internal controls.
The Board of Directors has determined that the Audit Committee does not have an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the strict definition contained in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B. Although all of the committee members are financially literate and are highly qualified to assess the performance of companies, their expertise was not gained in the manner specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Item 401. Nonetheless, the Board of Directors is confident the Committee members are qualified by virtue of their experience as directors, advisors, and executive officers in other organizations to perform the oversight role required by their positions at ILTS.
Code of Ethics
The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics for Officers and Senior Financial Staff which was filed as an Exhibit to the Company’s 10-KSB for the year ended April 30, 2004. This policy meets the requirements of a “code of ethics” as defined by Item 406 of Regulation S-B. Shareholders may obtain a copy by writing to the Company: Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2310 Cousteau Court, Vista, CA 92081.
Shareholder Communications
The Company has a procedure by which shareholders can communicate with Board members. Shareholders may communicate with the Board by writing to the Chairman of the Board or individual Board members as follows: International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc., Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2310 Cousteau Court, Vista, CA 92081. The Corporate Secretary will forward any shareholder communications as requested by the shareholder.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) filings. For the period covered by this Annual Report, we were in compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
