HEALTH DISCOVERY CORPORATION
 
Notes to Financial Statements
 
Note A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
Health Discovery Corporation (the “Company”) is a biotechnology-oriented company that has acquired patents and has patent pending applications for certain machine learning tools, primarily pattern recognition techniques using advanced mathematical algorithms to analyze large amounts of data thereby uncovering patterns that might otherwise be undetectable.  Such machine learning tools are currently in use for diagnostics and drug discovery, but are also marketed for other applications.  The Company licenses the use of its patented protected technology and may provide services to develop specific learning tools under development agreements or sell to third parties.
 
The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).  In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
 
The interim financial statements included in this report are unaudited but reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results of a full year’s operations and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
Note B – REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
Revenue is generated through the sale or license of patented technology and processes and from services provided through development agreements.  These arrangements are generally governed by contracts that dictate responsibilities and payment terms.  The Company recognizes revenues as they are earned over the duration of a license agreement or upon the sale of any owned patent once all contractual obligations have been fulfilled.  If a license agreement has an undetermined or unlimited life, the revenue is recognized over the remaining expected life of the patents. Revenue is recognized under development agreements in the period the services are performed.
 
The Company treats the incremental direct cost of revenue arrangements, which consists principally of employee bonuses, as deferred charges and these incremental direct costs are amortized to expense using the straight-line method over the same term as the related deferred revenue recognition.
 
Deferred revenue represents the unearned portion of payments received in advance for licensing and development agreements.  The Company had total unearned revenue of $3,228,847 as of June 30, 2012.  Unearned revenue of $1,095,635 is recorded as current and $2,133,212 is classified as long-term.

Notes to Financial Statements, continued
 
Note C - NET LOSS PER SHARE
 
Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity.  Due to the net loss in all periods presented the calculation of diluted per share amounts would create an anti-dilutive result and therefore is not presented.
 
Note D - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND OTHER EQUITY BASED PAYMENTS
 
Stock-based expense included in our net loss for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $128,953 and $157,906 respectively for stock options granted to officers and directors.  Stock-based expense included in our net loss for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $45,896 and $74,777 respectively.
 
As of June 30, 2012, there was approximately $202,649 of unrecognized cost related to stock option and warrant grants.  The cost is to be recognized over the remaining vesting periods that average approximately 2 years.  
 
In connection with his new contract as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, approved by the board of directors in May 2012, the Company issued Dr. Barnhill 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of this stock grant was based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant.  As a result, the Company recognized a cost of $100,000 during the current period.

Note E - PATENTS
 
The Company has acquired and developed a group of patents related to biotechnology and certain machine learning tools used for diagnostic and drug discovery. Legal costs associated with patent acquisitions and the application processes for new patents are also capitalized as patent assets. The Company has recorded as other assets $1,860,583 in patents and patent related costs, net of $2,125,211 in accumulated amortization, at June 30, 2012. Amortization charged to operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011 was $65,680 and $131,360 respectively. Estimated amortization expense for the next five years is $262,720 per year.
 
Note F – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Series B Preferred Stock
 
During the first quarter of 2009 the Board of Directors authorized the designation of Series B Preferred Stock. The number of shares originally constituting the Series B Preferred Stock was 13,750,000; however, during the fourth quarter of 2009 the Board of Directors authorized the increase in the number of shares constituting the Series B Preferred Stock to 20,625,000. The Company sold to individual investors a total of 19,402,675 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for $1,490,015, net of associated expenses, in 2009.  The Series B Preferred Stock has not been registered under either federal or state securities laws and must be held until a registration statement covering such securities is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission or an applicable exemption applies.
 
The Series B Preferred Stock may be converted into Common Stock of the Company at the option of the holder, without the payment of additional consideration by the holder, so long as the Company has a sufficient number of authorized shares to allow for the exercise of all of its outstanding warrants and options. The Shares of Series B Preferred Stock must be converted into Common Stock of the Company upon the demand by the Company after the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance.
 
The Series B Preferred Stock  accrues dividends at the rate of 10% of the Series B Original Issue Price per year, which shall be satisfied by the fifth anniversary of the issuance of such shares of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Original Issue Date”) by the Company’s issuance of the number of shares of Common Stock equal to such accrued dividends divided by the average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as reported on the Over-the-Counter-Bulletin Board or other exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock trades during the prior ten business days or by the payment of cash, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Dividends have been accrued for the Series B Preferred Stock in the amount of $385,615 as of June 30, 2012 and $316,064 as of December 31, 2011.

Note F – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY, continued
 
Subject to the limitations set forth in the Amended and Restated Articles of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation and applicable law, as long as the Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company is required to pay the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock a special dividend equal to 15% of Company Net Revenue collected beginning with the Original Issue Date and ending on the date the Series B Preferred Stock cease to be outstanding (the “Cash Bonus”).  Company Net Revenue will include, but not be limited to, revenue derived from development fees, license fees and royalties paid to the Company and revenue collected as a result of the sale of any asset of the Company or distributions from SVM Capital, LLC (each a “Revenue Contract”), reduced by the amount of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses that are directly related to obtaining, negotiating or documenting the Revenue Contracts and the performance of such Revenue Contracts, but shall not include the proceeds of any capital infusions from the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or as a result of any capital raise undertaken by the Company.  At any time following the Original Issue Date, the Company may satisfy the special dividend right in its entirety if the aggregate payments made to the Series B Holders are equal to that value which provides an internal annual rate of return of twenty percent (20%) on the Series B Preferred Stock.  The maximum Cash Bonus to be paid each year shall be the aggregate Series B Original Issue Price, and no amounts in excess of such amount shall accrue or carry-over to subsequent years. Dividends in the amount of $370,899 and $21,018 have been accrued for Series B Preferred Stock special dividend as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectfully.
 
No dividend payment will be made if, after the payment of such dividend, the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved, to satisfy the preferential rights upon the dissolution to shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the dividend.

We intend to continue to develop partnership and licensing relationships for test development, from expert assessment of the clinical dilemma to proper selection and procurement of high quality specimens.  Through the application of our proprietary analytical evaluation methods and state-of-the-art computational analysis to derive relevant and accurate clinical data, we intend to identify accurate biomarker and pathway discoveries, resulting in patent protection of our biomarker discoveries for future development.
 
Operational Activities
 
NeoGenomics
 
On January 6, 2012, we entered into a Master License Agreement (the “NeoGenomics License”) with NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc. (“NeoGenomics Laboratories”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NeoGenomics, Inc. (“NeoGenomics”).  Pursuant to the terms of the NeoGenomics License, we granted to NeoGenomics Laboratories and its affiliates an exclusive worldwide license to certain of our patents and know-how to use, develop and sell products in the fields of laboratory testing, molecular diagnostics, clinical pathology, anatomic pathology and digital image analysis (excluding non-pathology-related radiologic and photographic image analysis) relating to the development, marketing production or sale of any “Laboratory Developed Tests” or LDTs or other products used for diagnosing, ruling out, predicting a response to treatment, and/or monitoring treatment of any or all hematopoietic and solid tumor cancers excluding cancers affecting the retina and breast cancer. Our pre-existing licenses, including with Quest Diagnostics Incorporated and Smart Personalized Medicine, LLC relating to breast cancer, and with Retinalyze, LLC relating to cancer of the retina, remain in effect. Moreover, we retain all rights to in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) test kit development with medical instrument manufacturers such as our license with Abbott Molecular.
 
Upon execution of the NeoGenomics License, NeoGenomics Laboratories paid us $1,000,000 in cash and NeoGenomics issued to us 1,360,000 shares of NeoGenomic’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, which had a market value of $1,945,000 using the closing price of $1.43 per share for NeoGenomic’s common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on January 6, 2012.  In addition, the NeoGenomics License provides for milestone payments in cash or stock, based on sublicensing revenue and revenue generated from products and services developed as a result of the NeoGenomics License.  Milestone payments would be in increments of $500,000 for every $2,000,000 in GAAP revenue recognized by NeoGenomics Laboratories up to a total of $5,000,000 in potential milestone payments to the Company. After $20,000,000 in cumulative GAAP revenue has been recognized by NeoGenomics Laboratories, we will receive a royalty of (i) 6.5% (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances) on net revenue generated from all Licensed Uses except for the Cytogenetics Interpretation System and the Flow Cytometry Interpretation System and (ii) the Company will receive a royalty of 50% of net revenue (after the recoupment of certain development and commercialization costs) that NeoGenomics Laboratories derives from any sublicensing arrangements it may put in place for the Cytogenetics Interpretation System and the Flow Cytometry Interpretation System.
 
NeoGenomics Laboratories has agreed to use it best efforts to commercialize certain products within one year of the date of the license, subject to two one-year extensions per product if needed, including a “Blood Test for Prostate Cancer (using Blood Plasma)”, a “Pancreatic Cancer Test”, a “Colon Cancer Test”, a “Cytogenetics Interpretation System”, and a “Flow Cytometry Interpretation System.” If NeoGenomics Laboratories has not generated $5.0 million of net revenue from products, services and sublicensing arrangements within five years, we may, at our option, revoke the exclusivity with respect to any one or more of the initial licensed products, subject to certain conditions.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis, continued
 
Simultaneously with the signing of the NeoGenomics Master License Agreement, Dr. Maher Albitar, former Chief Medical Officer of Heath Discovery Corporation and current member of the Board of Directors and Consultant to HDC, accepted the position as Chief Medical Officer and Director of Research and Development of NeoGenomics and he was placed in charge of completing development, validation and commercialization of the Company’s product pipeline licensed to NeoGenomics.

The Company is pleased with the progress of the NeoGenomics relationship as NeoGenomics moves forward with its efforts to commercialize products using Health Discovery Corporation’s technology. Please refer to Neogenomics filings and press releases for further information.
 
Blood Test for Prostate Cancer

NeoGenomics has initiated the development of the Blood Test for Prostate Cancer under the direction of Dr. Maher Albitar using the genes patented by HDC.

Cytogenetic Analysis

Cytogenetic analysis is the science of studying chromosomes.  Microscopic evaluation of individual chromosomes remains the first step in the evaluation of the human genome.  Cytogenetic analysis is performed on almost all patients with hematopoietic diseases (blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma) and on a significant number of patients with solid tumors. The collected data is useful for diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of diseases.  Currently most of the analysis is performed manually by specially trained technicians.  The work is labor-intensive and subjective. Computer automation of this work could significantly reduce cost and improve the quality of the test.
 
NeoGenomics is currently working on development, validation and commercialization of this new image analysis tool for cytogenetic analysis under the direction of Dr. Maher Albitar.
 
Retinalyze

On February 17, 2012, the Company announced the commercial launch of Retinalytics SVMTM, to assist Ophthalmologists and Optometrists in the Detection of Macular Degeneration. While the first Retinalytics SVMTM product released focuses on age-related macular degeneration (“AMD”), the Company continues to develop a second Retinalytics SVM TM product using fundoscopic images of retinal vessels to assist eye care professionals in the detection of Alzheimer’s disease.

On April 17, 2012 Retinalyze, LLC granted to the National EYEPA Coalition (“EYEPA”) the exclusive right to use technologies developed by Retinalyze, LLC for optometrists provided that EYEPA use its best efforts to meet certain performance goals  Approximately 460 doctors have signed up to use the Retinalytics SVMTM  analysis technology. However, the volume of images processed via the agreement has thus far been significantly less than expected and revenues to date from Retinalyze have been negligible.. The Company believes the lower volume is attributed to difficulties with integration of the fundoscopic cameras to the Retinalytics SVMTM analysis program on the doctor's in-house computer systems which requires technical computer assistance and in some cases the purchase of a computer. Retinalyze, LLC is currently evaluating options to streamline this process with the goal of solving this slower than expected implementation issue thereby allowing the doctors who sign up for the program to begin using the Retinalytics SVMTM system quicker allowing for the analysis of a higher volume of scans.
 
In addition to the Optometry contract with the National EYEPA, Retinalyze, LLC has also signed agreements with several large multi-physician Ophthalmology groups in Florida to begin using the Retinalytics SVMTM analysis technology to assist physicians in the diagnosis of macular degeneration.
 
In June, 2012, Retinalyze, LLC signed a licensing agreement to incorporate Retinalytics SVMTM as a reimbursed procedure with Vision Care Direct's Vision Plans and corresponding Independent Physician Associations (IPA) systems.
 
Intellectual Property Activities
 
In May 2012, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office issued the Company’s Canadian patent covering the use of SVMs for computer-aided image analysis. Counterpart patents have already issued in the U.S. (two patents), Australia, Europe and Japan.  That same month, the Canadian Patent Office also issued a new patent to the Company with claims directed to the use of the SVM-RFE method for identifying a determinative subset of genes for diagnosing, prognosing or treating a disease or condition.  This is the second Canadian patent issued to the Company covering SVM-RFE, and the ninth patent worldwide covering the Company’s SVM-RFE method.

Also in May, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a notice of allowance of the Company’s application covering a system for providing data analysis services using a support vector machine for processing data received from a remote source.  Once issued, this will be the Company’s third patent covering a fee-for-service SVM analysis, with claimed uses including medical and financial analysis.
 
In May 2012, the European Patent Office issued a notice of intent to grant a patent to the Company based on its application for a system for providing data analysis services using a support vector machine for processing data received from a remote source.  The claims of this patent correspond to claims in the recently allowed U.S. application covering the same subject matter.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis, continued
 
 
In June 2012, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a new patent to the Company for its method for recognizing and eliminating noise within data to facilitate more accurate classification of the data.  The claimed method is effective for separating noise from true data in cases where the measurement process is subject to instrument noise, temperature drift and signal drift.
 
Also in June 2012, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a notice of allowance of the Company’s application covering a group of genes which exhibit reduced expression (down-regulated) relative to normal in the presence of prostate cancer.  The claimed biomarkers may be of particular value in tests using DNA methylation methods. Once issued, this will be the Company’s second patent covering methods for screening for prostate cancer using down-regulated genes.
 
Also in June, the Company filed a new patent application covering the use of SVM technology for the evaluation of chromosomal abnormalities.  The method of computer-aided karyotyping described in the application has the potential of providing a significant improvement over current methods in which images of chromosomes must be manually evaluated in a tedious and sometimes error-prone process.
In July 2012, the Japanese Patent Office issued a notice of intention to grant a patent covering the Company’s SVM-RFE method.  This will be the Company’s second Japanese patent and the tenth patent worldwide covering the SVM-RFE method.
 
With the recently issued patents, the Company now holds the exclusive rights to 61 issued U.S. and foreign patents covering uses of SVM and FGM technology for discovery of knowledge from large data sets.  The Company also has 26 pending U.S. and foreign patent applications covering uses of the SVM technology as well as biomarkers and diagnostic methods that have been discovered using the SVM technology.
 
Intel Update
 
In January 2012, the US Patent and Trademark Office granted the Company’s request for re-examination of Intel’s U.S. Patent No. 7,685,077, which issued in 2010 with claims covering SVM-RFE.  Shortly after granting the request, the USPTO issued an Office Action rejecting all claims of the Intel patent as unpatentable over the Company’s prior art.  In March 2012, Intel filed a response to the rejections.  The USPTO had not taken action on the response as of August 2012.  The Company is closely monitoring the progress of the examination.
 
After confirming in the fourth quarter 2011 that the Intel patent interfered with the claims of the Company’s continuation application, filed in December 2010 to provoke an interference, the US Patent and Trademark Office has yet to initiate interference proceedings.  Following review by the Patent Office interference division in June 2012, the application is on hold until the completion of the re-examination because an interference will not be initiated involving a patent that is under re-examination.  In the event that the re-examination is resolved favorably for Intel, the interference process will be initiated.
 
Quest Agreements

The Company previously entered into a Development Agreement with Quest Diagnostics, Incorporated (“Quest”) and Smart Personalized Medicine, LLC (“SPM”) pursuant to which the Company and SPM agreed to assist Quest in the development of new laboratory tests for aiding in the detection of breast cancer therapies.  The Company and SPM also entered into a related Licensing Agreement with Quest.

In addition, the Company entered into a license agreement with Quest pursuant to which the Company granted a non-exclusive, royalty-bearing license to Quest for developing and commercializing a urine-based laboratory developed test for clinically significant prostate cancer.

The Company is currently in discussions with Quest regarding the termination of these agreements.  The Company does not expect to receive any further payments in connection with the termination of these agreements. The Company currently intends to explore other opportunities to exploit its technology in the fields of breast cancer and prostate cancer diagnostic tests.

Once the termination agreement is finalized, the Company's urine and blood test for prostate cancer will be exclusively held by NeoGenomics as part of the NeoGenomics Master License.

Abbott Agreement

The Company previously entered into a license agreement with Abbott Molecular, Inc. pursuant to which we granted Abbott a worldwide, exclusive license for in-vitro diagnostic rights to develop and commercialize reagent test kits for the Company’s prostate cancer molecular diagnostic tests.  Under the license agreement, the Company was due to receive milestone payments and royalties.  At this time, the Company believes that Abbott does not intend to move forward with their development of the tests.  As a result, the Company would not be entitled to any further milestone payments or royalties.

Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2012 for further information regarding updates with our business.

Research and development fees were $37,220 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, and $98,124 for the same period in 2011. This decrease relates primarily to the completion of recent validation studies of the urine-based molecular diagnostic test for prostate cancer during 2011.
 
Compensation expense of $368,331 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was higher than the $261,553 reported for the comparable 2011 period. The increase is attributed to the costs associated with the stock issued to Dr. Barnhill as a part of his new employment contract.
 
Other general and administrative expense increased to $190,050 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $151,165 for the same period in 2011.  This increase was due primarily to higher costs associated with travel expense.  The Company attended several additional industry conferences in the three month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.
 
Loss from Operations
 
The loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $541,072, compared to $694,815 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This reduction was due to increased revenue recognized for the NeoGenomics License.
 
Other Income and Expense
 
The Company received a portion of the NeoGenomics license fee in NeoGenomics stock.  The Company has chosen to measure the gain or loss on the value of this asset using the fair value option method.  During the three month period ending June 30, 2012, the NeoGenomics stock fair value increased by $13,600, which is recorded as other income in the statements of operations.  During the same period in 2011, the Company did not own any NeoGenomics stock.
 
Interest income was $212 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2,034 in 2011.  Interest income decreased because the Company had less cash on hand to invest throughout the 2012 period.
 
During the three month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company negotiated a settlement with a service provider.  As a result, the Company realized an increase in other income and expense (gain on payables restructuring) of $483,658 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011.
 
Net Loss
 
The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $527,260, compared to $209,123for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The increase in net loss was due primary to the gain on payable restructuring from the period ending June 30, 2011.
 
The net loss attributable to common shareholders was $561,845 for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2012, compared to $245,754 for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2011.

Net Loss
 
The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $788,646 compared to $1,020,788 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The decreased net loss was due to the revenue earned related to the licensing revenue recognition for the NeoGenomics License.
 
The net loss attributable to common shareholders was $1,208,078 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1,094,460 in the six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Net loss per share was $0.005 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and $0.005 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
For the period ended June 30, 2012, the Company has incurred a net loss of $788,646 with $711,237 of cash being used by operating activities. During the six month period ending June 30, 2012, $3,878 was used for investment activities.  In addition, there was no cash provided by financing activities during the six months ending June 30, 2012.  As a result, the Company realized a decrease of cash of $715,115 during the six month period ending June 30, 2012. 
 
At June 30, 2012, the Company had $2,502,016 in current assets of which $175,211 was in cash and $2,312,000 in NeoGenomics stock which is eligible for sale commencing in July 2012. In addition, the Company ended the June 30, 2012 period with $1,760,987 in total current liabilities of which $1,095,635 is deferred revenue.

The Company has taken steps to reduce the Company’s expenditures in order to reduce the “burn rate” to approximately $150,000 per month. These steps included reducing expenses and allocating our remaining cash reserves for our operational requirements at a reduced level.  We also deferred payables to certain vendors until the Company is able to sell its NeoGenomics stock in early third quarter 2012. 

Commencing in the third quarter 2012, the Company has begun selling its NeoGenomics stock to fund ongoing operations. The Company's ability to generate cash from NeoGenomics stock may be negatively impacted by various factors including the trading price and trading volume of the stock, the operational performance and investor interest in NeoGenomics and other factors beyond the Company's control.
 
In the longer term, the Company plans to generate additional cash from its licensing arrangement with NeoGenomics and its Retinalyze joint venture with Doctors Optimal Formula. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to fully implement its cash conservation program, sell sufficient number of NeoGenomics shares to fund ongoing operations, or generate sufficient revenues from the NeoGenomics license and the Retinalyze joint venture in an amount that would permit funding of ongoing operations. In such event, the Company plans to obtain other additional equity or financing in order to support operations.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such funding.

As of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), we carried out an evaluation regarding the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is also serving as our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Based upon this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.

The Company’s management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  As of the Evaluation Date, no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K contains information regarding a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 due to an inadequate segregation of duties due to the small number of employees.
