ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Artificial Life, Inc. (“Artificial Life” or “the Company”), a Delaware, USA, corporation with global headquarters in Hong Kong and an office in Berlin, Germany, is a global mobile content investment company with a focus on emerging markets and the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) countries.

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company has announced its new business model and strategy and commenced transforming into a new and innovative investment driven entity. Since then, the Company ceased to actively sell its former products and halted developing new mobile products as it used to do under the historic business model of the past years and started instead evaluating various investment targets and negotiating several investment options and joint venture opportunities.

In order to increase the flexibility of the Corporation and to facilitate a fast and cost efficient implementation of the new business strategy, the Company has also formed new operational entities:

Formation of Artificial Life Investments, Ltd. (“Alife Investments”)

In December 2010, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Artificial Life Investments, Ltd. to handle all future investment activities for the Company. Alife Investments is intended to be the key operating investment entity of the Company going forward.

Formation of Alife Studios, Inc. (“Alife Studios”)

In September 2011, the Company formed a wholly-owned operational subsidiary, Alife Studios, Inc. Alife Studios was established to take over the former mobile content production and distribution business and some development obligations for clients and shareholders from and for the Company. Alife Studios, however works on an outsourcing business model with partners and outsources most of the operational activities to third parties around the globe. Alife Studios has launched its operations in October 2011.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for a complete financial statement presentation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, comprised of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. Due to the substantial change of the business model and business strategy starting in the second quarter of 2011, the financial results for 2011 may vary substantially from former years. Amounts at December 31, 2010 are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates.

The consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position and operating results of Artificial Life, Inc., including all wholly-owned subsidiaries. Investments in entities that we do not control but have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for under the equity method. Investments in entities in which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the cost method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications:

Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. Beginning from the first quarter of 2011, the Company reports bad debt expense as a separate component of operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive

(UNAUDITED)

income. Prior to the first quarter of 2011, the bad debt expense was partially included as a component of general and administrative expenses.

Recently issued accounting standards

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-06, which amends ASC 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. ASU 2011-06 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-06 is to be applied prospectively and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2011-06 on its consolidated financial statements.

PLEDGED DEPOSIT

At September 30, 2011, the Company maintained an interest-bearing pledged deposit of $25,641 (2010: $25,641), which is required under an agreement with a bank to assure future corporate card credit availability. The deposit is restricted for use and the agreement is renewed automatically on a month-to-month basis.

CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION

The following customer concentration disclosures apply mostly to our historic business model which has been abandoned in the first quarter of 2011. Such disclosures have less relevance going forward as the new business model will mainly consists of asset sales and investments and no longer of revenues derived from the licensing of the Company’s products.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivables. The Company occasionally grants credit to its customers in the normal course of business and generally does not require collateral. Due to the global financial crisis and general market conditions, in 2009 and 2010, the Company granted extended payment terms (up to 180 days) to certain customers. The Company assesses the probability of collection from each customer at the outset of the arrangement based on a number of factors, including the customer’s payment history and its current creditworthiness. If in management’s judgment collection is not reasonably assured, the Company does not record revenue until the uncertainty is removed.

Management performs ongoing credit evaluations, and the Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses based upon its loss history and its aging analysis. Management reviews the allowance for doubtful accounts each reporting period based on a detailed analysis of trade receivables. In the analysis, management primarily considers the age of the customer’s receivable and also considers the creditworthiness of the customer, the economic conditions of the customer’s industry, general economic conditions and trends, and especially the Company’s business relationship and history with its customers, among other factors. If any of these factors change, the Company may also change its original estimates, which could impact the level of the Company’s future allowance for doubtful accounts. If judgments regarding the collectability of receivables were incorrect, adjustments to the allowance may be required, which would reduce profitability. Since the Company’s trade receivables are often concentrated in a relatively few number of customers, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. The allowance for doubtful accounts is approximately $7,536,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to $7,678,000 at December 31, 2010, is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of credit losses in existing trade receivables. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company wrote off delinquent accounts receivables of $4,000,000 from a Greece client, which were determined to be uncollectible. Full bad debt allowance had already been provided for these accounts receivable since March 31, 2011.

Accounts receivable are recorded at cost less allowance for doubtful accounts and discount interest. Due to the extended payment terms granted to certain customers, payments from customers may be collected over an extended period of time. The related receivables have been discounted using a 5% (2011) and 3.25% (2010) discount rate to reflect the present value of the future collection of payments, which is to be amortized using the effective interest method over the period in which payments are made and the balance is outstanding. The unamortized discount on these receivables was approximately $245,000 at September 30, 2011 and $620,000 at December 31, 2010.

At September 30, 2011, the Company had 88 telecom carriers, resellers, distributors and general corporate customers, compared to 83 at September 30, 2010. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company had three customers that represented approximately 41%, 31% and 20% of the Company’s revenues, respectively. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company had two customers that represented

ARTIFICIAL LIFE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

(UNAUDITED)

approximately 53% and 43% of the Company’s revenues, respectively. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, the Company had three customers that represented approximately 49%, 37% and 12% of the Company’s revenues, respectively. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, the Company had five customers that represented approximately 24%, 19%, 19%, 14% and 10% of the Company’s revenues, respectively.

Due to the recent change in business model and strategy, historic customers may no longer be clients of the Company going forward. The Company has ceased to license its products under the former business model since the second quarter of 2011. Significant revenues are no longer expected to arise from the former business model. The Company intends to sell its current assets and some of its intellectual property and to engage mostly in investment related activities rather than licensing and sales activities. Therefore, client structures and accounts are expected to change substantially.

At September 30, 2011, trade receivables were due from 40 customers. Of these, four customers accounted for approximately 26%, 22%, 20% and 16% of total trade receivables, respectively. At December 31, 2010, trade receivables were due from 40 customers. Of these, four customers accounted for approximately 34%, 27%, 17% and 9%, respectively.

FIXED ASSETS

Fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation and if applicable, impairment. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company sold certain fixed assets. In connection with the sale, loss of approximately $8,600 was recognized under other operating income.

Based on the analysis, the Company determined that the fair value of its investment exceeded its carrying value and therefore no impairment was indicated and recorded in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

ARE Augmented Reality Europe UG (“ARE”)

Investment in ARE Augmented Reality Europe UG is accounted using the cost method as the Company did not control nor have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial polices. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the joint venture was not in full operation.

NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and the weighted average dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants; common equivalent shares are excluded from the calculation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of fully diluted shares for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2011, the Group’s deferred tax asset, of which valuation allowance has been provided for, primarily consists of tax loss carry-forwards. The recognition of the net deferred tax asset at September 30, 2011 is based on the Company’s analysis of past, current and projected financial results of the Group’s operations. Based on the analysis, management concluded that the net deferred tax asset represents the amount that is more likely than not of being realized. If future taxable income is less than the amount that has been assumed in determining the deferred tax asset at September 30, 2011, an increase in the valuation allowance may be required with a corresponding charge against income. If future taxable income exceeds the level that has been assumed in calculating the deferred tax asset (including taxable income in foreign jurisdictions), the valuation allowance could be reduced with a corresponding credit to income.

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $2,764,130. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the income tax expense recorded an income tax benefit of $2,661,130. The income tax (benefit) expense was determined based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2011.

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $837,484. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, the income tax expense includes a current income tax expense of $2,262,774 and deferred tax credit of $298,045.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non performance.

Accounting standards have established a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting standards have established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company's financial instruments include cash, trade receivables, accounts payable, and notes payable. Due to the extended payment terms granted to certain customers, the Company used fair value measurements in its accounting for certain non-related party trade receivables, using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing “Level 2” inputs, with 5% (2011) and 3.25% (2010) discount rate to reflect the present value of the future collection of payments, which is to be amortized using the effective interest method over the period in which payments are made and the balance is outstanding. At September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company estimates the fair market value of these certain non-related party trade receivables of $27,246,323 and $31,240,776, respectively. The related fair market value adjustment of $59,072 and $375,530 was recognized on the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month period ended September30, 2011, respectively. The related fair market value adjustment of $34,456 and $148,139 was recognized on the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month period ended September 30, 2010.

Management estimates that the carrying amounts of other non-related party financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and the fair value of the related party notes payable is not practicable to estimate due to the related party nature of the underlying transactions.

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets include fixed assets and license rights that are measured at fair value resulting from impairment, if determined to be necessary. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company used fair value measurements in its account for certain license rights, using the license’s expected future cash flow analysis utilizing “Level 3” inputs. Fair market value adjustments of $0 and $1,269,354 for license rights are recognized on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income at September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. (See Note 6 for further details)

Financial assets include equity and cost method investments, which are measured on a non-recurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. At September 30, 2011, we based on the equity investee’s valuation, using “Level 3” unobservable inputs to the valuation methodologies that were significant to the fair value measurements. The valuation methodology includes the use of a discounted cash flow model, requiring the following significant estimates: revenue, based on assumed market segment size and share; costs; and discount rates. Estimates of market segment size, share, and costs are developed by the investee using available market data. At September 30, 2011, no fair market value adjustments for financial assets are recognized on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. No financial assets required fair value measurement on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2010.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition and is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains, in addition to historical statements, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual future results could differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, the factors discussed in the section titled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and we do not intend to update any such forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Starting in the second quarter of 2011, the Company has changed its business model and strategy by transforming the Company into a new and innovative investment driven entity. Since then, the Company ceased to actively sell its products under the historic licensing business model and started evaluating and actively pursuing various investments and joint venture opportunities.

We believe that by focusing on investment and financing activities, the Company can substantially transfer its own current operational activities and outsource its future research and development, new product development, sales, and distribution activities to the companies it will invest in rather than doing it by itself. Our goal is to establish a network of leading wireless companies around the globe in which we play a key role as a strategic investor and business facilitator.

As already announced in the quarter-ended June 30, 2011, as a first step of the transformation, we are focusing on selling some of our valuable intellectual property which we have generated over the past years and to acquire stakes in other companies that we consider to be valuable contributors to our future business; to acquire equity stakes in exchange for our intellectual property or by cash investment or a combination thereof whenever appropriate. We anticipate that our investment focus will be on certain mobile technologies in the following areas: near field communication (NFC), smart phone apps (games, life-style, health-care and business apps), augmented reality, social networking games and apps, and m-commerce; the future investment focus of the Company will be on South America (mainly Brazil), Russia, India, Asia (mainly Greater China) and (South) Africa and the Middle East, i.e. the countries commonly known as the BRICS nations. However, the general investment strategy will be flexible and opportunistic allowing the Company to also invest in promising targets in other territories (such as Europe or the US) when they are presented.

In addition, the Company intends to launch joint ventures with larger companies around the globe, to make the best future commercial use of its diverse range of intellectual property, such as some of its game titles and development engines, some of its business applications, its Opus-M™ platform, its MoPA-TV® platform, and its augmented reality assets.

In the third quarter of 2011, the Company launched a new operational entity, Alife Studios, Inc. (“Alife Studios”) to develop and publish new mobile content and products rather than doing it itself. The Alife Studios will be the future outsourcing unit for the Company and will also take over current mobile development obligations from and for the Company. As of September 30, 2011, the Company owns 100% of Alife Studios. As of the issuance date of this report, the Company owns 68% of Alife Studios and has sold 32% to current and former senior management of the Company.

We expect the Company will grow faster and stronger following this new investment approach in the long run than it would have by continuing to grow organically as a mobile content producer as we did in the past years. The current financial crisis in the Euro zone and in many other parts of the world allows for investments at low valuations. We intend to take advantage of this situation. We intend to become a stronger player in the smart phone field by investing now and in the coming months in promising firms, helping these firms to grow their business through the introduction to the Company’s partners, customers, licensors and client networks. The Company will work with these partners and other investors to increase value of its investment companies and/or to sell the Company’s stakes to strategic investors or partners at a later stage or to exit through Initial Public Offerings at the appropriate time.

The Company has substantially reduced its staff and full time employees to adapt to the new investment oriented business model as it does no longer need to retain programmers, designers, product managers etc. For operational activities the Company subcontracts its new Alife Studios. Occasionally when needed we hired and assigned temporary staff, external consultants and interns to support our operations. As of September 30, 2011, we had 26 full-time employed staff.

Significant events during the third quarter of 2011 include the following (mostly still related to our former business model):

In July 2011, we signed a partnership agreement with Turkcell, the third biggest GSM operator in Europe, to launch a wide selection of Java, Android, and Windows Phone 7 mobile games through its App Store, Turkcell Uygulamalar.

In July 2011, we signed partnership and distribution agreements with Mobile Streams and Handster to publish a wide range of its iOS, Android and Java titles on the app stores of the two companies, further extending the reach of our apps and games globally.

In July 2011, we announced a re-structuring and reorientation of our main business activities and new strategic goals.

In July 2011, we announced the appointment of Parker Randall CF (H.K.) CPA Limited, a member of the Parker Randall International as our independent auditors.

In July 2011, we signed a content agreement with MXit Lifestyle to distribute its games on the MXit Platform. The agreement entails us to sell our games through the MXit, largest social networking and mobile chat platform in the Republic of South Africa and Africa.

In September 2011, we launched ALife Studios, Inc., a new mobile and cross-platform content development studio based in Hong Kong. Due to our recent change of business model and strategy, we will focus on investments and support of our investment companies like Alife Studios and will work with them to develop and publish new mobile content and products rather than doing it itself.

As of September 30, 2011, we had total assets of $65,716,148 and total liabilities of $4,545,112. As of September 30, 2011, current assets were $24,794,328 as compared to $19,234,929 at December 31, 2010, and current liabilities were $4,545,112 as compared to $10,122,329 at December 31, 2010.

The increase in foreign currency transaction losses was mostly due to the significant adverse effect of the weakening of the Euro relative to the United States Dollar on the trade receivables denominated in Euro.

(LOSS) / INCOME FROM OPERATIONS AND NET (LOSS) / INCOME : Loss from operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was $(3,789,975), as compared to income from operations of $4,280,746 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was $(2,646,503), as compared to net income of $5,055,651 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in both (loss) income from operations and net (loss) income is primarily due to the significant decrease in license revenues related to the shift in business model. The basic and diluted net (loss) income per share for the third quarter of 2011 was $(0.04), as compared to $0.08 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, we recorded an income tax benefit (expense) of $2,764,130 (2010: $(837,484)). Such income tax expense is calculated based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow Summary

Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, are summarized as follows:


	2011			2010

Cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities	$	(938,047	)	$	5,470,728
Investing activities		(2,016,877	)		(10,363,168	)
Financing activities		597,606			3,256,224
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		212,975			(120,585	)
Net decrease in cash, considering effect of exchange rate changes on cash	$	(2,144,343	)	$	(1,756,801	)

Net cash used in operating activities was $938,047 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, which was an increase of $6,408,775 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. This increase in cash used was due primarily to the significant decrease in revenue generated from global license deals, decrease in cash collections from customers, offset by increase in bad and doubtful debt expense.

Net cash used in investing activities was $2,016,877 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, which was a decrease of $8,346,291 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to decreased cash expenditures for purchase of license rights.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $597,606 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, which was a decrease of $2,658,618 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to decrease in proceeds raised in private placements during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011.

As of September 30, 2011, we had a working capital surplus of $20,249,216 and stockholders' equity of $61,171,036.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, we generated a net loss of $2,135,084, as compared to $12,293,661 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. We experienced negative cash flows from operations in 2011, and have been dependent on financing by our chief executive officer to fund our operations and capital expenditures. We have borrowed funds from time to time in the past from our chief executive officer, Eberhard Schoneburg. As of September 30, 2011, we owed our chief executive officer an aggregate amount of $631,742, as compared to $2,144,167 at December 31, 2010. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 6,767,071 shares of common stock to settle $2,204,725 of the notes payable to our chief executive officer, while our chief executive officer advanced an additional $402,564 to the Company. In connection with the stock issuance, the Company also issued warrants to the chief executive officer to acquire 300,000 shares of common stock with a total fair value of $76,200, and which has been accounted for as compensation expense in our statement of income and comprehensive income during the period. The advanced funds bear interest at a rate of 5% per year, secured by the assets of the Company and repayable on demand.

For the long-term, we intend to utilize principally existing cash and cash equivalents, as well as internally generated funds, which are anticipated to be derived primarily from the sale of our intellectual property or products currently under development. We may also seek additional capital to fund potential costs associated with new business strategy implementation, possible expansion and/or acquisitions through private offerings of equity securities, possible sources of debt and equity financings, including, if consummated, the investment. Stockholders should assume that any additional funding will likely be dilutive.

Our ability to achieve profitability will depend upon our ability to transform into a more investment-oriented entity. We anticipated that once our new business strategy is fully implemented in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company will grow faster and stronger and will generate positive cash flow. If we are not successful in improving our operating results and cash flows or if existing and possible future sources of liquidity described above are insufficient, then we may be required to reduce our operations.

In October 2011, the Company issued 400,000 shares of common stock resulting in total proceeds to the Company of approximately $60,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2011.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management team will continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting throughout 2011.
