NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Digitiliti, Inc. have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated
financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009,
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 15, 2010. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented
have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Correction of Prior Period
In accordance with the SECs Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior
Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements ( SAB
108), the Company recorded a noncash adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of $771,453
which served to increase interest expense and Additional Paid in Capital. This noncash adjustment resulted
from an understatement in the amount of beneficial conversion feature recognized when certain note
holders converted their notes during the three months ended March 31 2009. In evaluating materiality and determining the appropriateness of applying
SAB 108 to this error, the Company considered materiality both qualitatively and quantitatively as
prescribed by the SECs Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99. The following table reflects the impact
of the above error to the consolidated statement of operations as of and for the three months ended
March 31, 2009:

Reclassifications
Certain accounts in the prior period were reclassified to conform with the current periods
financial statement presentation.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires reporting entities to make
new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant
transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and information on
purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair
value measurements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation disclosures, which are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the above guidance did not impact the Companys
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In October 2009, the FASB issued amendments to the guidance on software revenue recognition
altering the scope of revenue recognition guidance for software deliverables to exclude items sold
that include hardware with software that is essential to the hardwares functionality. This
authoritative guidance will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of adopting the new authoritative
guidance.
7
No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective has had, or is expected to have, a
material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
2. Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred net losses of $808,640 for
the three month ended March 31, 2010 and an accumulated deficit of $20,120,776. These conditions
raise substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
In the second quarter, we are continuing to work with our existing reseller channel to sell and
support our DigiLIBE and DigiBAK product. In addition, we have signed new reseller agreements with
three companies. One of these is Northland Systems of Medina, MN. We are in the process of
developing go-to-market plans, doing technical product training and product evaluation, and working
through the details of the order, delivery, and revenue recognition cycle with Northland and the
other resellers. Once these actions are completed to a sufficient level of confidence that our
relationship will yield successful results, the other resellers will be announced. We continue to
engage additional resellers as part of our overall plan. In addition, our pipeline continues to
grow and our partners have sold DigiLIBE units. They are currently in the process of completing
installation and customer verification.
The Company continues to be dependent on its ability to generate future revenues, positive cash
flows and additional financing. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in
generating future revenues, in obtaining additional debt or equity financing or that such
additional debt or equity financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern.
3. Notes Payable
In June 2008, the Company negotiated a six-month payment plan with its primary software vendor
Asigra, Inc (Asigra). Under the terms of this payment plan, the Company was granted extended
payment terms that omitted Asigras standard 20% discount for net 30-day early payment. This
payment plan reflected monthly payments based on a percentage of outstanding invoices owed for
software licenses and maintenance, with any remaining outstanding balance payable in December 2008.
In December 2008, this payment plan was extended for another 6-months with all outstanding debt
payable in May 2009. In July 2009, we executed a Payment and Security Agreement (the Security
Agreement) with Asigra that reflected an 8-month payment plan that would satisfy the existing
balance owed to Asigra along with the inclusion of amounts to be charged over this 8-month period.
This Security Agreement provided Asigra a security lien in the Companys DigiBAK vault system. On
March 6, 2010, the Company made the final payment called for under this Security Agreement and now

8. Commitments and Contingencies
On July 13, 2009, the Company was made a party to a complaint by nuArch, LLC, (nuArch) alleging
breach of contract and sought recovery of unpaid compensation of approximately $140,000 for alleged
services rendered during 2008 and 2009. On February 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Settlement
Agreement with nuArch that reflected an agreed upon payment of $75,000 to be paid over a 9-month
period commencing on March 22, 2010. Accordingly, the Company reduced the related payable based on
the agreed settlement amount.
On January 18, 2010, the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement with a company
that was formed by two former employees. The Companys complaint against these two former
employees and their new company alleged breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties and breach
of loyalty. An out-of-court settlement was reached reflecting monetary compensation to be paid to
us, along with a non-compete period placed against these two former employees and their company.

Plan of Operation
The Business
Our business is developing and delivering superior
storage technologies and methodologies enabling our customers to manage, control, protect and access their
information and data with ease. Our core business is providing a cost effective on-line data protection solution
to the small to medium business (“SMB”) and small to medium enterprise (“SME”) markets
through our DigiBAK service (previously called “Pharaoh Business Fortress Storage Center”). This
on-line data protection solution helps organizations properly manage and protect their entire network from one
centralized location.
Our emerging business product, announced in December, 2009, is called
DigiLIBE. We believe that DigiLIBE is a game-changing product that addresses the root cause of companies’
information problems of unmanaged growth, lack of information governance and lack of ability to utilize and
leverage stored data. We designed the DigiLIBE product from our experience in the storage and archiving business
because we know that:
|
• |
|
Organizations want to be able to govern their information;
|
|
• |
|
People want to be able to access their information;
|
|
• |
|
People and organizations want to be able to leverage the content of the
information stored at the company, even if it is archived;
|
|
• |
|
People and organizations want to be able to put disparate pieces of content
together in a context that can be used to advantage; and
|
|
• |
|
People and organizations want to be able to do this simply and
inexpensively.
|
DigiLIBE was designed from the bottom up and from a human user
perspective to achieve those objectives described above.
11
The DigiBak legacy business
Our DigiBAK solution can backup and
restore structured and unstructured data on every machine in a network, including desktops, laptops, file and
print servers. We provide storage through a “utility based computing” philosophy, where customers pay
for the gigabytes of data they store in DigiBAK Vault facility. Our “digitiliti” Data Storage Center
utilizes high speed communications and high performance, storage-centric computer servers.
Through our DigiBAK service, we combine powerful, agent-less backup
software with our highly protected facility, to deliver to our customers an efficient and effective online-offsite
data backup and restore solution. Our facilities enable us to provide offsite disaster recovery emphasizing
intraday protection and restore for all of our customer primary data centers and geographically dispersed offices
or campus settings. Our DigiBAK Vault is located in the base of the former Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank. It is
a one of a kind facility providing web based on-demand backup/restore service with all the benefits of direct
fiber access to a “Level 5” data center. The Vault has 24/7 onsite physical security, including
security guards, motion detectors, security cameras, card-key access, separate cages with individual locking
cabinets racks. It also has battery generator back up power, temperature and humidity controls and fire
suppression systems. Geographically, we are located at the center point of the Metropolitan area network. Being
centrally located at the focal point of the Twin Cities Fiber Channel and Gig loop, the pipeline for data and load
capabilities are immense.
The DigiBAK Vault houses all of the hardware and software needed for
our DigiBAK solution. At the customer site, DigiBAK administrator software is loaded on as many or as few
workstations as desired and requires a valid logon code, ensuring no unauthorized access. At the customer site,
the administrator software console acts as the interface with the DigiBAK Vault service and enables the
configuration of all backups and restores. The DigiBAK backup software is totally agent-less, requiring no
additional software to be installed on any machines. From the customer administration console, the customer sets
retention policies, schedules automatic backups and initiates restores. The customer decides what files to backup:
emails, Windows, Linux, Mac, Lotus, AS400 or many more. Customers typically start backing up one system and then
add more systems to their backup sets as they continue to see how easily our DigiBAK solution works.
To ensure customer security, all data is encrypted before it leaves the
customer site and when stored offsite. The encryption key is known only to the customer. The data can be
unencrypted only by the customer, who would do so upon the need of a restore. If a customer loses their local
data, they simply enter the commands to restore it via the administration console and data flows from the Data
Storage Center back to the customer site. If the customer loses all data, DigiBAK can restore the latest data to a
location of the customer’s choosing using a portable disk unit. In addition to being encrypted, the data is
also highly compressed, making it safe and impenetrable from viruses and optimizing customers’ storage costs
per gigabyte.
We contract with XO Communications for our DigiBAK Vault space and
communication lines. XO Communications provides voice, data and IP services to businesses and other
telecommunications companies in 80 metropolitan markets across the United States. This relationship helps control
capital expenditures yet maintains flexibility to set up a new data center in any one of 80 geographically
dispersed locations throughout the world, thereby reducing any geographic concerns.
We utilize both direct in-house sales and sales through business
partners such as VAR’s (Value Added Remarketers) and
third party integrators. Our resellers have extensive data storage knowledge and expertise and an
established customer base. Our sales plan targets reseller, OEM and channel partnerships regionally and nationally
that possess utility-oriented sales systems. We and our partners target vertical markets in the Small Business
Market (SMB) and the Small and Intermediate size Enterprises (SME) of 100 – 500 employees, per
industry standard classification.
12
As a result of our sales and marketing efforts of our existing product,
DigiBAK, our customer base has expanded from approximately 20 in fiscal 2005; to approximately 100 in fiscal 2006;
to 508 in 2007; to 731 in 2008; to 789 in 2009 and 805 as of March 31, 2010. Correspondingly, our annual
sales have increased from $402,638 in 2006; to $1,329,386 in 2007; to $3,075,308 in 2008, to $3,192,463 in 2009
and $625,127 as of March 31, 2010. Despite the significantly improved revenue from sales, we continue to
struggle with profitability because of new product development, legacy issues of past due accounts payable, and
potential convertible debt repayment requirements. Through most of 2009, we struggled to address those legacy
issues, offered incentive for convertible debt holders to convert to equity and worked diligently to complete the
new product development. As we entered into 2010, we have resolved many of the legacy issues and completed the new
product development of our DigiLIBE product. While we still need to raise cash in 2010 to fund the launch of our
new product, we are in a much better position than we were a year ago.
The Emerging New DigiLibe Product
In 2008, we began to pursue a
strategy of developing new archiving software to provide more functionality to customers using our current DigiBAK
service. Through 2009, we worked extremely hard to complete the development of this product, called DigiLIBE, a
virtual corporate library, and announced that product in December, 2009. To raise capital, we determined that our
future was in the new product and that it would be in our interests to sell the legacy DigiBAK business. We signed
a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to pursue this sale with a buyer, after considering a number of alternative
interested parties. From the LOI, we worked for three months to close on an Asset Purchase Agreement. We could not
agree to acceptable terms and mutually decided to end the negotiation. Out of that effort, we considered pursuing
another potential buyer or evaluating structural changes to take our Vault forward strategically. To better
control expenses during this time, we restructured our current DigiBAK business, outsourced technical support and
cut resources. In addition, we upgraded our Asigra software to a new version offering improved performance and
features. We again considered selling the DigiBAK business in 1Q 2010, however, as we began to launch DigiLIBE, we
found that potential customers were looking for a total archiving solution which could benefit both businesses.
There is synergism in both the current and the new business, and we believe it is to our long term advantage to
work out a strategy of moving forward with both and systematically transitioning to a new future business model,
leveraging information life cycle management and control, client-based access to all stored information and active
data archiving.
In the development of our new DigiLIBE product, we implemented a
rigorous product development approach, established a concrete architectural framework and a very specific product
development plan, with key development milestones and with automated test and integration systems. We restructured
the product development team, and invested heavily in customer, reseller and industry expert demonstrations, to
gain feedback on the product and to identify critical features and functions needed for Release 1 of this product
and beyond. We established three key milestones in our development plan, the first being to have the
“reference platform” completed by May 15, 2009, where the basic technology underpinnings and
performance capabilities of DigiLIBE are operational and meeting requirements. This “reference
platform” is the core intellectual property we have and will further introduce to the market and validated
the feasibility of our approach. The second milestone was on June 15, 2009. In this milestone, we began to
integrate end user and back-office function. The third milestone was on July 15, 2009, which was Release 1
“Function-freeze.” We have successfully completed each milestone and entered customer Beta Testing in
the 3rd quarter 2009. In the 4th quarter, we integrated graphics with common look and feel and additional
administrator reporting capabilities. DigiLIBE has received excellent feedback on the capability, performance and
function our new product delivers since its December, 2009, initial release.
In the second quarter, we are continuing to work with our existing reseller channel to sell and
support our DigiLIBE and DigiBAK product. In addition, we have signed new reseller agreements with
three companies. One of these is Northland Systems of Medina, MN. We are in the process of
developing go-to-market plans, doing technical product training and product evaluation, and working
through the details of the order, delivery, and revenue recognition cycle with Northland and the
other resellers. Once these actions are completed to a sufficient level of confidence that our
relationship will yield successful results, the other resellers will be announced. We continue to
engage additional resellers as part of our overall plan. In addition, our pipeline continues to
grow and our partners have sold DigiLIBE units. They are currently in the process of completing
installation and customer verification.
13
Through confidential disclosures and demonstrations, and from industry
analysts, we believe that our new product is positioned to change the current information management and storage
approach and achieve significant market opportunity. Our new product represents a significant step toward our goal
of becoming a technology leader in the information content and context management marketplace. This product offers
a breakthrough approach to how companies store, archive and utilize information for competitive advantage. It will
finally enable customers to control the information they create and access that information to gain business
intelligence. DigiLIBE is disruptive technology in that it differs from the existing industry solutions in its
completely integrated and simplified approach in one solution (versus linking point solutions together), and in
the price point to implement and manage. DigiLIBE organizes CONTENT and puts information in CONTEXT for
organizations to gain more efficiency and for competitive advantage. It’s an entirely different way to look
at information. Today, the market is defined by the technology surrounding information management. With DigiLIBE,
the market is defined by content creation and use. We believe our DigiLIBE product offers new industry innovations
and have filed filed for patent protection in our initial patent application filing of January, 2009. Further, we
believe there are no competitors that currently offer the breadth and depth of this approach.
The Market and Resellers
Similar to our current DigiBAK business,
our channel strategy for DigiLIBE is to use resellers. DigiLIBE offers unique reseller value that goes beyond
hardware and software to business consulting and software services. Our targeted markets are regulated industries
with a vertical segment focus.
Internal Operations and Capabilities
We have begun to re-staff and
prepare for growth by hiring marketing, sales, and technical customer support personnel. The company has been
organized into four major areas of focus.
(1) An operational arm to manage and focus on the
current DigiBAK operations, including customer support and satisfaction, continuous operational improvements and
on sales support and growth, both with business partners and direct customers. In addition, the operations
organization will build and manage internal IT infrastructure in support of DigiLIBE.
(2) A new product
development team to focus on launching Release 1 of DigiLIBE, determining features and function for Release 2 and
strengthening the development and QA release system and process.
(3) A sales and marketing team to
implement the marketing strategy, sales plan and technical customer support process for DigiLIBE, including
marketing deliverables, target markets, competitive intercept strategies, reseller development, and support
system.
(4) A financial and administrative team to focus on business results, expense management,
business controls, investor and outside communications, and Human Resources.
In order to fund the new product launch, we have been aggressively
reducing overall operating costs to increase profitability of our DigiBAK operations. Since 2008, we have reduced
our annual salaries and wages by over 20%, while increasing operational efficiencies and lowering overall costs of
goods sold. As previously stated, we implemented additional restructuring of our DigiBAK operations to increase
profitability, improve cash flow and reduce cash burn rate. Through these actions, we reduced our cash burn rate
per month by approximately $100,000 in 2009. From 2008 to 2009, we reduced our operating expenses by 47%. We
continue to raise additional capital to provide the financial resources needed to achieve our strategy, albeit we
are balancing our desire to aggressively launch our new product with the reality of available capital. During
2009, we agreed to a payment plan with our primary Vault software provider, Asigra. This payment plan addressed
the approximately $550,000 past due licenses from 2008 as well as those licenses due in 2009 and first three
months of 2010 of approximately $300,000. The payment plan addressed all of these costs, allocated in a monthly
payment plan which ended in March, 2010. We completed the Data Sales lease in November, 2009, and negotiated a
$480,000 liability to Exanet down to $80,000, which was paid off in December 2009. We believe the results of
these actions should enable us to achieve break-even cash flow in 2010 as we accelerate new product sales. We held
our first annual shareholder meeting on October 15, 2009.
14
Continuing operations have been funded, in large part, through our
$5.5 million offering of 12% convertible notes initiated in March 2007, our $750,000 offering of 12%
secured convertible notes initiated in April 2009 and our $2,000,000 equity offering initiated in
October 2009. The October 2009 equity raise was originally up to a maximum of $1,000,000, but was
increased to $1,500,000 during the first quarter of 2010 and increased again to $2,000,000 in April 2010. This
equity round of financing was offered shares of our common stock at $0.20 per share. As of March 31, 2010,
this equity raise provided $1,364,500 of capital to fund business operations and development and marketing of our
new DigiLibe product.
Prior to implementation of the Modification Proposal (discussed below),
the March 2007 12% convertible notes were convertible into common stock at $0.50 per share, provided a
registration statement covering the underlying common stock has been filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and declared effective and upon expiration of an 18 month term. In addition, for each $1 in principal
invested, the investor received a warrant to purchase one-half of a share of common stock with a five year term
exercisable at $1.50 per share (the “A warrants”) and a warrant to acquire one-half of a share of
common stock with a five year term exercisable at $2.25 per share (the “B warrants”) (see inducement
discussion below). Each warrant could not be exercised during the first 6-months and one day following issuance,
unless there was an effective registration statement covering the underlying common stock filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the April 2009 12% secured convertible notes were
convertible into common stock at $0.35 per share, provided a registration statement covering the underlying common
stock has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and declared effective and upon expiration of a
24 month term. In addition, for each $1 in principal invested, the investor received a warrant to acquire one
share of common stock with a five year term exercisable at $0.50 per share. These notes are secured against the
Data Store Center Vault. We completed the $750,000 12% secured convertible debt offering in October, 2009.
In late 2008 and early 2009, we directly contacted our 12% convertible
note holders and 12% secured convertible note holders to seek to restructure the debt by asking the holders to
extend the due dates of their respective convertible notes or to encourage them to convert their respective
convertible notes (the “Modification Proposal”). On November 13, 2008, as a demonstration of
confidence in our current plan, and as an act of good faith, our Board of Directors unilaterally approved by board
resolutions a reduction in the $1.50 and $2.25 exercise prices of the A and B warrants to $1.00 for both classes
of warrants. In addition, our Board of Directors approved an overall reduction in the conversion price of all
convertible notes from $0.50 per share to $0.35 per share. The resolutions provided that the reduced conversion
price would be retroactive to include any convertible note holders who had already elected to convert their
respective convertible notes. $35,000 in convertible notes had already been converted at the time of these
resolutions. Accordingly, we were obligated to issue a total of 109,000 additional shares of our common stock for
division among these holders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity is dependent, in the short term, on proceeds from newly issued debt and the sale of
our common stock for cash. In the long term, we may need to continue expanding the capacity of the
Data Storage Center by investing in property and equipment and software licenses.
We have financed our operations, debt service and capital requirements through cash flows generated
from operations, the issuance of secured and unsecured convertible debt financing, capital leases
and issuance of equity securities. We had a working capital deficit of $3,417,761 at December 31,
2009. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $3,662,601.
We had cash of $104,057 as of March 31, 2010, compared to cash of $141,086 as of December 31, 2009.
We used $311,829 of net cash from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010,
compared to using $77,306 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Cash used in operating
activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010, funded a net loss of $808,640. This net
loss was offset by non-cash charges of $159,453 for amortization and depreciation, $19,715
associated with stock options expense and $84,339 related to amortization of the discount on our
convertible debt and deferred financing costs. In addition, the Companys operating activities
generated $61,412 from a decrease in accounts receivable that helped support a $170,044 increase in
accrued expenses. Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2009,
funded a net loss of $2,362,205. This net loss was offset by non-cash charges of $271,435 for
amortization and depreciation, $63,241 associated with stock options expense, $740,001 related to
amortization of the discount on our convertible debt and deferred financing costs, $979,809
associated with the Beneficial Conversion Feature resulting from those convertible notes that were
converted and $30,264 associated with a decrease in accounts receivable and $88,112 associated with
an increase in accrued expenses.
Net cash flows used by investing activities was $45,099 for the three months ended March 31, 2010,
compared to net cash flows used in investing activities of $1,419 for the three months ended March
31, 2009. Both comparable totals are attributed to our purchase of property and equipment and
software licenses during these two periods.
Net cash flow provided by financing activities were $319,899 for the three months ended March 31,
2010, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $101,177 for the three months ended
March 31, 2009. During three months ended March 31, 2010, cash provided by financing activities is
primarily due to proceeds of $765,300 received from issuance of our common stock, net of related
issuance costs. We used these proceeds to make $10,829 in capital lease payments, $364,572 in
payments on notes payable and $70,000 of payments on convertible debt. During three months ended
March 31, 2009, cash provided by financing activities is primarily due to proceeds from notes
payable of $165,197, offset by $54,485 payments on notes payable. In addition, the Company received
$75,000 of notes payable from a related party, which helped to support $84,535 in payments on
capital leases.
After implementation of our Modification Proposal referenced above regarding our outstanding
convertible notes, the following table reflects as of March 31, 2010, the aggregate principal,
accrued interest the combined totals, associated with our $5,500,000 12% convertible note offering
funding that comes due during the 1st quarter of 2010.

Although we are continuing to
discuss payment and/or conversion or extension of these notes with
note holders, these outstanding obligations pose a risk to our ongoing operations. The Company continues to be dependent on its ability to generate future revenues, positive cash
flows and additional financing. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in
generating future revenues, in obtaining additional debt or equity financing or that such
additional debt or equity financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations
For the
three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009
Sales for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 decreased 37% to $625,127 compared to $860,279 for
the three months ended March 31, 2009, reflecting a $235,152 decrease in quarterly revenue.
This loss in revenue is a result of increasing competitive pricing pressure from an ever-expanding range of
alternative archiving storage services, a weak economy, and loss of a small number of larger
customers where the cost of outsourcing archiving services became prohibitive to them. In response
to these challenges, we took action to restructure our resources, strengthen our VAR and customer
relationships, repositioned and rebranded our offering, initiated a stronger sales effort that had
been decreased during the time we attempted to sell this business, and refined other aspects of the
DigiBAK business to sustain our margins. Despite this decrease in revenue, we increased our
customer count from 722 as of March 31, 2009 to 805 as of March 31, 2010 and our current customer
base remains highly satisfied with our DigiBAK service offering.
Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $323,156 compared to $397,874 for the
three months ended March 31, 2009, or a 5% gross profit margin increase to 51% for the three months
ended March 31, 2010 compared to 46% for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This increase in
margin reflects the direct benefits of actions described above taken by the Company during 2009 to
streamline and strengthen of operations and personnel. In addition, the gross margin improvement
reflects the inherent benefits of our business model which relies on the organic growth of our
customers data, yet does not require a proportionate expenditure in capital costs. We continue to
efficiently manage our Data Storage Center to plan for growth and capacity without requiring
significant capital cost in the short term. Our strategy assumes we will refresh technology every
three or four years, so we plan to refresh our hardware technology platform in 2010 to realized the
performance and cost benefits of new technology.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $269,742 compared
to $90,507 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. In the first quarter of 2009, we had realized
that our effort to outsource product development to India was not working as anticipated, so we restructured and
reorganized new product development, bringing it in-house through a combination of internal and
targeted skilled contractors. This new approach implemented after April 2009 enabled us to redefine
the DigiLIBE architecture and release plan, streamline the development process and provided a more
efficient and effective development process yielding greater focus and oversight over design
architecture, cost control, and schedule integrity. Given the timing of this new development
approach, we incurred greater R&D expenditures during the first quarter of 2010 when compared to
the same period of the prior year. In addition, the 1st quarter 2010 effort to complete
the new product packaging and documentation, integrate the back office accounting and tracking
software, and strengthen test and quality assurance processes required additional contracted and
direct resources.
Given the release and roll-out
of our new DigiLibe product in the first quarter of 2010, we incurred significantly higher sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2010 of $175,293 compared to $86,751 incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2009. This
increase in sales and marketing expenditure directly relates to our DigiLibe market launch actions,
which include; establishment of regional and national reseller processes and agreements, and
retaining a public relations and industry trade group to create market and industry awareness
through product promotion within the industry analyst community, trade publications, and target
market segments.
Offsetting this increase in sales
and marketing expense are actions to reduce other company
overhead. Our general and administrative expenses were reduced 23% from $592,574 incurred during
the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to $458,631 for the three months ending
March 31,
2010. The improvement is attributable to our conscious efforts to slash costs and streamline
administration and reduce executive salaries. The business restructuring in 2009 resulted in target
efforts to reduce general overhead expenses through personnel realignment to priorities and goals,
vendor contract negotiations, stock based compensation alternatives, insurance costs and a
daily/weekly focus on expenditures between the CEO and CFO.
18
The dramatic decrease of $1,762,117 in interest expense between the comparative three months ended
March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 is attributed to the amount of convertible notes that were
converted under the terms of the Modification Proposal that
resulted in the recognition of approximately $1,455,000 of interest expense related to the
following components of the convertible notes: (1) the beneficial conversion feature, (2) the
unamortized discount and (3) the fair value of the incremental compensation costs resulting from
the modification on the exercise price of the warrants.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements during 2010 and 2009.

Item 4T. |
|
Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 240.13a 15(e)
and 240.15d 15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rules, regulations and forms. Our
disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to accumulate and communicate information to
our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and
evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives. Accordingly, management must apply its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended March
31, 2010. Based on that evaluation, they have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
as of the end of the period covered by this report are not effective in providing reasonable
assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange
Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commissions rules, regulations and forms. In particular, we have
identified the following material weakness in our disclosure controls:
(a) We did not maintain sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical
accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of generally accepted accounting
principles commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting
requirements. We have limited experience in the areas of financial reporting and disclosure
controls and procedures. As a result, there is a lack of monitoring of the financial reporting
process and there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the consolidated
financial statements, including disclosures, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis;
and
(b) There is a lack of sufficient accounting staff which results in a lack of segregation
of duties necessary for a good system of internal control. This control deficiency, which is
pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
In response to these material weaknesses, management continues to address these issues with (1) the
establishment of an Audit Committee effective April 2009, (2) the successful conversion to a new
accounting software system effective April, 2010 that is expected to provide for a more efficient
and timely reporting and financial disclosures and (3) the hiring of three more administrative and
accounting personnel during the first quarter that serves to address the segregations of duties
weaknesses referenced above.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Except as indicated in the preceding paragraphs about managements evaluation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, there have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that occurred during
our first fiscal quarter of 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
