TRANSWITCH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Description of Business

TranSwitch Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on April 26, 1988, and is headquartered in Shelton, Connecticut. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, “TranSwitch” or the “Company”) design, develop, market and support highly integrated digital and mixed-signal semiconductor devices for the telecommunications and data communications markets.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of TranSwitch have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements are not included herein. These financial statements are prepared on a consistent basis with, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2007. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.

Note 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, effective January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies and sets forth consistent rules for accounting for uncertain income tax positions in accordance with FAS 109 Accounting for Income Taxes. There was no cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this interpretation.

As of December 31, 2006 the Company had $5.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits. Due to the Company’s net operating loss position in the U.S., any subsequent recognition of these tax benefits would not likely change the Company’s effective tax rate. There have been no significant changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits from the date of adoption through June 30, 2007, nor does the Company reasonably expect any significant changes to occur within the next twelve months.

Historically the Company has not accrued or paid significant interest and penalties for underpayments of income taxes. Estimated interest and penalties related to underpayment of taxes would be classified as a component of income tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations. No interest and penalties for underpayments of income taxes were required to be accrued through June 30, 2007.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and several foreign countries and has not extended the statute of limitations to assess additional taxes for any of these jurisdictions. Currently, the open tax years for federal and state purposes are 1997 through 2003, to the extent of the Company’s net operating loss carry forwards for those years, and 2004 to 2006 for all issues. The open tax years for all foreign jurisdictions are 2001 through 2006.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities. The fair value election is irrevocable and generally made on an instrument-by-instrument basis even if a company has similar instruments that it elects not to measure at fair value. At the adoption date, unrealized gains and losses on existing items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported as a cumulative adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 159, changes to fair value are recognized in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and is required to be adopted by TranSwitch in the first quarter of 2008. The Company is currently determining if fair value accounting is appropriate for any eligible items and cannot currently estimate the effect, if any, which SFAS 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Stock-Based Compensation

The amount of the stock-based compensation expense is based on the estimated fair value of the awards on their grant dates and is recognized over the required service periods. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Note 5. Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss and diluted loss per common share amounts are based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding during the periods. All “in-the-money” stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and shares issuable upon the conversion of the 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes due 2007 and 5.45% Convertible Notes due 2010, were anti-dilutive.

Note 6. Acquisition of the ASIC Design Center Division of Data – JCE

On January 11, 2007, the Company acquired the ASIC Design Center Division of Data – JCE, an Israel-based publicly held electronics components distribution company. The ASIC Design Center develops and sells customer-specific semiconductor products.

The acquisition was financed with the issuance of 3,746,713 shares of the Company’s common stock with an approximate fair value of $5.5 million and $1.4 million of cash. The Company incurred transaction costs of approximately $0.3 million which resulted in a total purchase price of approximately $7.2 million.

Under the earn-out provisions of the ASIC Design Center acquisition agreement, the Company may pay up to an additional $14.5 million in the form of TranSwitch common stock or cash, at its option, if the ASIC Design Center achieves stipulated revenue and operating profit targets over the calendar year ending December 31, 2007. The Company will recognize any such additional consideration as an adjustment to the purchase price and goodwill at the expiration of the 12 month period.

The results of operations of the ASIC Design Center have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial results beginning on January 11, 2007. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.

The Company has allocated the cost to acquire the ASIC Design Center to its identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, with the remaining amount classified as goodwill. None of the amount allocated to goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax reporting purposes. The Company is currently in the process of reviewing its purchase price allocation and may make adjustments in the near future. The total purchase price of the ASIC Design Center has been allocated, on a preliminary basis, in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as follows (in thousands):

 

Inventory

   $ 400  

Equipment

     36  

Contracts (1)

     1,756  

Obligations under deferred revenue (2)

     (180 )

Goodwill

     5,183  
        

Total purchase price

   $ 7,195  
        

 

  (1) The valuation of existing contracts of the ASIC Design Center was determined based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. The income approach, which includes an analysis of the cash flows and risks associated with achieving such cash flows, was the primary technique used to value such contracts. The value assigned to the ASIC contracts is generally being amortized ratably over five years, which represents the estimated contract average remaining useful life. Amortization expenses of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively were recognized during the three and six months period ending June 30, 2007.

Table of Contents
  (2) In connection with the preliminary purchase price allocation, the Company has estimated the fair value of the ASIC Design Center’s existing consulting and maintenance obligations related to deferred revenues. The estimated fair value of these obligations was determined utilizing a cost build-up approach. The cost build-up approach determines fair value by estimating the costs relating to fulfilling the obligations plus a normal profit margin. The sum of the costs and operating profit approximates the amount the Company would be required to pay a third party to assume the support obligations. As of June 30, 2007, the remaining obligation under deferred revenue was $0.2 million.

Unaudited pro forma results for the three and six months ending June 30, 2006, respectively, assuming the ASIC Design Center was acquired as of January 1, 2006 follows: Net revenues of $11.9 million and $23.1 million, respectively; net loss of $(1.1) million and $(6.5) million, respectively; basic and diluted loss per common share of $(.01) and $(.05), respectively. Unaudited pro forma results for 2007 approximate the reported results included in the consolidated financial statements.

On January 30, 2006, the Company completed its acquisition of Mysticom Ltd. (Mysticom) an Israel-based, privately-held developer of high performance, low power, multi-Gigabit Ethernet transceivers for the communications industry. For further information, please refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded restructuring (credits) and charges of approximately $(0.1) and $0.6 million, respectively relating to a workforce reduction of approximately 15 primarily research and development employees in the Company’s Shelton, Connecticut and Bedford, Massachusetts facilities.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded restructuring charges of approximately $0.2 and $0.4 million, respectively. This year to date amount included approximately $0.2 million of additional costs for changes in estimates for restructuring actions taken at the Company’s European design centers in 2004 and 2005, and $0.2 million for changes in estimates relating to subleases at the Company’s facilities in Shelton, Connecticut.

Note 10. Investments in Non-Publicly Traded Companies

The Company owns convertible preferred stock of Opulan Technologies Corp. (Opulan), and Metanoia Technologies, Inc. (Metanoia). In addition, the Company has a 3% limited partnership interest in Neurone II, a venture capital fund organized as a limited partnership. The Company accounts for these investments at cost. The financial condition of these companies is subject to significant changes resulting from their operating performance and their ability to obtain financing. The Company continually evaluates its investments in these companies for impairment.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, there was no impairment charges related to these investments.

Note 11. Convertible Notes and Refinancing

On July 6, 2007 the Company exchanged approximately $21.2 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes due September 30, 2007 for an equivalent principal amount of a new series of 5.45% Convertible Notes due September 30, 2010 (the “2010 Notes”), and also issued for an equal amount of cash an additional $3.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2010 Notes.

Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture governing the 2010 Notes, the initial conversion price of the 2010 Notes is approximately $2.12. The 2010 Notes are redeemable at par value by the Company at any time after July 6, 2009, provided that the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market exceeds 150% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days, and the Company provides notice of redemption to the holders of the 2010 Notes.

The Company accounted for the New Notes as a refinancing of short-term debt to a long-term basis retroactively to June 30, 2007. As such, that portion of the 5.45% Convertible Notes now due September 30, 2010 of $21.2 million has been classified as long-term as of June 30, 2007.

As of June 30, 2007 the remaining outstanding principal balance of the 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes not exchanged in the offering above was $8.9 million. These notes are due September 30, 2007 and are expected to be redeemed on or before that date. As of December 31, 2006, the remaining outstanding principal balance of the 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes was $30.2 million.

OVERVIEW

We were incorporated in Delaware on April 26, 1988. We design, develop and market highly integrated semiconductor devices, also referred to as very large scale integration (VLSI), that provide core functionality in voice and data communications network equipment deployed in the global communications network infrastructure. In addition to their high degree of functionality, our products incorporate digital and mixed-signal (analog and digital) processing capabilities, providing comprehensive system-on-a-chip (SOC) solutions to our customers.

Our products are compliant with relevant communications network standards including Asynchronous/Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (Asynchronous/PDH), Synchronous Optical Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SONET/SDH), Ethernet and Asynchronous Transfer Mode/Internet Protocol (ATM/IP). We offer several products that combine multi-protocol capabilities on a single chip, enabling our customers to develop network equipment for triple play (voice, data and video) applications. A key attribute of our products is their inherent flexibility. Many of our products incorporate embedded programmable micro-processors, enabling us to rapidly accommodate new customer requirements or evolving network standards by modifying a function of the device via software instruction.

We bring value to our customers through our communications systems expertise, VLSI design skills and commitment to excellence in customer support. Our emphasis on technical innovation results in defining and developing products that permit our customers to achieve faster time-to-market, and to develop communications systems that offer a host of benefits such as greater functionality, improved performance, lower power dissipation, reduced system size and cost, and greater reliability for their customers.

In the period following 2001 when the telecommunications industry suffered a major correction, a number of our traditional competitors diverted their focus towards alternate markets such as storage and enterprise. We, however, made a deliberate decision to remain focused on telecommunications and to improve our competitive standing in this arena as the market recovered. We concluded that future investment in communications technology would be driven by video, high speed data and mobility services, and adjusted our product focus accordingly to develop products for Ethernet over SONET and Carrier Ethernet applications.

Presently, many of our traditional competitors are attempting to re-enter the communications market, since a recovery is underway. However, our sustained focus on this market during the past several years has enabled us to build a robust product portfolio, secure several key design wins and strengthen our relationships with Tier-1 customers. As a result, we believe we are very well positioned on a competitive basis.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, which are prepared to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the period reported. We are also required to disclose amounts of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Our actual results in future periods could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, there were no significant changes to the critical accounting policies we disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Table of Contents

During the second quarter of 2007, we changed our presentation of net revenues by product line. We have four product line categories: 1) Broadband Access; 2) Optical Transport; 3) Carrier Ethernet and 4) Non-Telecommunications. The Broadband Access product line is incorporated into OEM systems that allow telecommunications service providers to transition their legacy voice networks to support next generation services such as voice, data and video. The Optical Transport product line is incorporated into OEM systems that improve the efficiency of fiber optic networks and in the process increase the overall network capacity. The Carrier Ethernet product line allows carriers to provide robust and differentiated services using Ethernet technology in their wide-area networks. The Non-Telecommunications product line consists of non-telecommunications ASIC products. The following tables summarize our net product revenue mix by product line for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006:

The 17% decrease in product revenues for the second quarter of 2007 versus the comparable period of 2006 reflects decreased sales of our Broadband Access product line (largely ASPEN Express product) and decreased sales of our Optical Transport product line (primarily due to declines in legacy products). Additionally, the net revenues for the second quarter of 2007 were adversely affected by a delay in shipments from a supplier to our Israeli-based ASIC Design Center. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, product revenue decreased 10% from the comparable period of 2006. This reflects decreased sales of our Optical Transport product line due to declines in legacy products. This was partially offset by increased volume of our Broadband Access product line due to product revenue associated with our acquisition of the ASIC Design Center.

Service revenues consist of license, implementation and maintenance service sales generated by our Mysticom and ASIC Design Center subsidiaries.

International net product revenues represented approximately 84% and 87% of net product revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Table of Contents

Total gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by approximately $2.0 million or 27% from the comparable period of the prior year. Total gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by approximately $3.6 million or 24% from the comparable period of the prior year. The decrease in gross profit reflects lower revenues, an excess and obsolete inventory charge and a shift in product mix associated with our purchase of the ASIC Design Center.

Excluding the benefit from sales of previously written down inventory and the impact of excess and obsolete inventory charges, gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased 3% and 5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. We anticipate that gross profit will continue to be effected by fluctuations in the volume and mix of our product shipments as well as material costs, yield and the fixed cost absorption of our product operations.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses of employees engaged in research, design and development activities, expenses related to electronic design automation tools, subcontracting and fabrication expenses, depreciation and amortization and facilities expenses. During the quarter ended June 30, 2007 research and development expenses increased $0.2 million or 5% over the comparable period of 2006. This higher research and development expenses was due primarily to initial prototype fabrication expenses associated with a new product increasing $0.1 million and depreciation expenses due to capital spending on software licenses increasing $0.1 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007 research and development expenses increased $0.9 million, or 8% over the comparable period of 2006. This higher research and development expenses was due primarily to initial prototype fabrication expenses associated with a new product increasing $0.4 million and depreciation expenses due to capital spending on software licenses increasing $0.3 million.

We believe that continued investment in the design and development of future products is vital to maintain a competitive edge. We continue to seek opportunities to focus our research and development activities and will continue to closely monitor both our expenses and our revenue expectations in future periods. We will continue to concentrate our spending in this area to meet our customer requirements and respond to market conditions.

Marketing and Sales

Marketing and sales expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, trade show expenses, travel expenses and facilities expenses. Marketing and sales expenses decreased by approximately $0.3 million or 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was due primarily to decreased bad debt expenses of approximately $0.1 million due to lower accounts receivable allowance requirements and lower facilities expenses of $0.1 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007 marketing and sales expenses decreased by approximately $0.3 million, or 6% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was due primarily to $0.3 million in lower salaries expenses associated with a lower headcount, lower facilities expenses of $0.1 million and lower stock compensation expenses of $0.1 million. These decreases were offset by increased amortization of intellectual property expenses of $0.2 million due to the amortization of intangible customer contract assets created with the purchase of the ASIC Design Center Division of Data – JCE.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, professional and legal fees and facilities expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of approximately $0.1 million, or 7% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year was due primarily to lower salaries expenses associated with a lower headcount of $0.1 million. This decrease was offset by higher accounting and audit expenses of $0.1 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007 general and administrative expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 5% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease in general and administrative expenses was due primarily to lower salaries expenses associated with a lower headcount of $0.2 million and lower depreciation expense of $0.1 million. This decrease was offset by higher facilities expenses of $0.1 million.

Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges, net

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 we recorded (credits) and charges of approximately $(0.1) and $0.6 million, respectively related to costs associated with a workforce reduction of approximately 15 primarily research and development employees in our Shelton, Connecticut and Bedford, Massachusetts facilities.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 we recorded charges of approximately $0.2 and $0.4 million, respectively. This year to date amount included approximately $0.2 million of additional costs for changes in estimates for restructuring actions taken at our European design centers in 2004 and 2005, and $0.2 million for changes in estimates relating to subleases at our facilities in Shelton, Connecticut.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 we recorded non-cash other income of approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively to reflect the change in the fair value of derivative liability resulting from issuance of the Plus Cash Notes.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 we recorded non-cash other income of approximately $1.8 million and $2.4 million, respectively to reflect the change in the fair value of derivative liability resulting from issuance of the Plus Cash Notes.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Interest expense was $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2007 and 2006, as the debt balances of the Plus Cash Notes were the same in both periods. Interest income was approximately $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2007 and 2006 as higher market yields offset the impact of 2007 lower cash balances. At June 30, 2007 and 2006, the effective interest rate on our interest-bearing securities was approximately 5.2% and 4.8%, respectively.

Interest expense, net was $0.7 and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Interest expense decreased $0.3 million in the first half of 2007 as compared to the first half of 2006 due to lower debt balances resulting from the exchanges of the Plus Cash Notes in the first quarter of 2006. Interest income increased $0.2 million in the first half of 2007 as compared to the first half of 2006, as higher market yields more than offset the impact of 2007 lower cash balances.

Income Tax Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 income tax expense was $0.1 million, and for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 income tax expense was $0.2 and $0.1 million, respectively. The amounts recorded reflect income taxes on the earnings of certain of our foreign subsidiaries.

During the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 we evaluated our deferred income tax assets as to whether it is “more likely than not” that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. In our evaluation of the realizability of deferred income tax assets, we consider projections of future taxable income, the reversal of temporary differences and tax planning strategies. We have evaluated and determined that it is not “more likely than not” that all of the deferred income tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded for all of our net deferred income tax assets. In future periods, we will not recognize a deferred tax benefit and will maintain a deferred tax valuation allowance until we achieve sustained taxable income. Additionally, in the future, we expect our current income tax expense to be related to taxable income generated by our foreign subsidiaries.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 we had total cash and cash equivalents of approximately $50.4 million and $57.7 million, respectively. This is our primary source of liquidity, as we are not currently generating positive cash flow from our operations. A summary of our cash and cash equivalents and future commitments are detailed as follows:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments

We have financed our operations and have met our capital requirements since incorporation in 1988 primarily through private and public issuances of equity securities, convertible notes, bank borrowings and, for certain years, cash generated from operations. Our principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2007 consisted of $50.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are instruments with original maturities of less than 90 days. Our cash equivalents as of June 30, 2007 consist of money market instruments.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2007 will be sufficient to fund operating losses, capital expenditures, redeem $8.9 million of our Plus Cash Notes due September 2007 (after the consummation of a refinancing referred to in Note 11 to our interim financial statements) and provide adequate working capital for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that events in the future will not require us to seek additional capital and, if so required, that capital will be available on terms favorable or acceptable to us, if at all.

Commitments and Significant Contractual Obligations

We refinanced approximately $21.2 million short-term debt outstanding of $29.7 million under our 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes as of June 30, 2007 to a long-term basis on July 6, 2007. In addition, the Company on July 6, 2007 issued an additional $3.8 million of Convertible Notes due September 30, 2010. Except for the refinancing of short-term debt to a long-term basis and the issuance of new debt, there have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 as filed with the SEC on March 6, 2007. Additional comments related to our contractual obligations are presented below.

The Company has existing commitments to make future interest payments on our 2007 Convertible Plus Cash Notes and to redeem these notes in September 2007. Interest expense on our existing 5.45% Convertible Plus Cash Notes due 2007 and new 5.45% Convertible Notes due 2010 is estimated at approximately $0.5 million in Q3 of 2007 and $0.3 million in Q4 of 2007.

We have outstanding operating lease commitments of approximately $37.5 million, payable over the next eleven years. Some of these commitments are for space that is not being utilized and, for which, we recorded restructuring charges in prior periods. We are in the process of trying to sublease additional excess space but it is unlikely that any sublease income generated will offset the entire future commitment. As of June 30, 2007, we have sublease agreements totaling approximately $4.9 million to rent portions of our excess facilities over the next four years. We currently believe that we can fund these lease commitments in the future; however, there can be no assurances that we will not be required to seek additional capital or provide additional guarantees or collateral on these obligations.

We have also pledged approximately $0.2 million in available cash and cash equivalents as collateral for stand-by letters of credit that guarantee certain long-term property lease obligations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes from the information provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). These officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. As such, we believe that all material information relating to us and our consolidated subsidiaries required to be disclosed in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time period, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the three months ended June 30, 2007 there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Limitations Inherent in all Controls.

Our management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer, and Interim Chief Financial Officer, recognize that our disclosure controls and our internal controls over financial reporting cannot prevent all errors or all attempts at fraud. Any controls system, no matter how well crafted and operated, can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in any control system, no evaluation or implementation of a control system can provide complete assurance that all control issues and all possible instances of fraud have been or will be detected.
