EXPLANATORY NOTE
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB/A is being filed as Amendment No. 2 to our Quarterly
Report on Form 10-QSB which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) on November 15, 2007. We are filing this form 10-QSB/A to amend our prior disclosure
with respect to managements conclusion as to
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls.
This Form 10-QSB/A amends and restates only certain information in the following sections as a
result of the revised disclosure described above:
Part IItem 3. Controls and Procedures
In addition, we are also including currently dated Sarbanes Oxley Act Section 302 and Section
906 certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that are attached to
this Form 10-QSB/A as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2.
PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
On May 4, 2007, Burr, Pilger & Mayer LLP, the independent audit firm retained to audit the
2005 and 2006 financial statements for our wholly-owned subsidiary and principal operating company,
VirnetX, Inc., sent a letter to the VirnetX board identifying several significant deficiencies and
material weaknesses in our internal controls noted in connection with its audit.
The material weaknesses identified were as follows:
|
|
|
Segregation of Duties the Companys small size and few employees resulted in a
situation where the same individuals were responsible for multiple steps in the
major transaction cycles such as cash receipts, cash disbursements and payroll. |
|
|
|
|
Technical Accounting Function the Companys internal accounting staff didnt
have the public company experience necessary for more complicated accounting issues
such as accounting for stock compensation expense under FAS 123R. |
The significant deficiencies identified were as follows:
|
|
|
The need for additional documentation policies and procedures |
|
|
|
|
The need for additional information technology (IT) organizational controls |
|
|
|
|
The need for more security with respect to access to financial software
applications |
Burr, Pilger & Mayer LLP resigned on October 26, 2007 as the auditor for our wholly-owned
subsidiary. The reason for the resignation was concern that we would not become compliant with the
internal controls requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act by December 31, 2007 and
due to an insufficient quantity of experienced resources involved with the financial reporting and
period closing process. Following the resignation of Burr, Pilger & Mayer LLP, we promptly
retained an implementation consultant recommended by our independent audit firm, Farber Hass Hurley
& McEwen LLP, to institute the necessary controls and procedures in order to become compliant with
Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act by December 31, 2007. We have committed significant
financial and personnel resources to achieve this goal as well as to address any weaknesses in our
financial reporting and period closing process. Accordingly, although we are not currently
compliant with these internal control requirements, we and our implementation consultant are
committed to becoming compliant by December 31, 2007 and to maintaining our compliance thereafter.
In addition to the implementation consultant we hired to generally help us become compliant
with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act, since the date of
Burr Pilger & Mayer LLPs letter identifying
material weaknesses in our internal controls, we hired a new Chief Financial Officer with
significant public company experience, as well as a new bookkeeper to operate and maintain our
basic accounting programs. We have begun to segregate responsibility for major transaction cycles
to address the material weakness concerning segregation of duties described
above. In addition, we contracted with a consultant with significant expertise in equity
accounting issues to analyze and review our equity transactions on a continuing basis.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive and principal
financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such
term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the Exchange Act). In light of the material
weaknesses and significant deficiencies in internal controls
described above, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period ending September 30,
2007. Disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to the issuers management, including its principal executive and
principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
See discussion in Item 2 of Part 1 of this Report on Form
10-QSB under the heading In connection with an audit that was conducted of VirnetX in connection
with the merger, VirnetXs independent auditors identified material weaknesses in VirnetXs
internal controls over financial reporting.
