  Material uncertainty over going concern

The Company's shareholder has provided verbal and written assurances that sufficient capital will be provided to meet all the Company's future liabilities but the directors are unable to conclude with certainty that there is adequate capital in the business to meet the Company's anticipated liabilities over that period.
