ITEM 1.
INFORMATION STATEMENT

This information statement is being furnished to all holders of the common stock of Acquired Sales, in connection with resolutions of the Board of Directors and the written consent of the holders of in excess of 50% of the voting rights of the shareholders of Acquired Sales. The Board of Directors, as approved by the written consent of the holders of in excess of 50% of the voting rights of the shareholders of Acquired Sales as of the Record Date, provides public notice of the approval and authorization to carry out activities in connection with (i) amending the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to increase the Corporation’s authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares (the “Capitalization Increase”); (ii) effectuating a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of the shares of our common stock to take effect on a date not later than December 31, 2011 so that stockholders will receive one share of our common stock for each twenty shares now held (the “Reverse Split”); (iii) changing the Corporation’s fiscal year from September 30 to a December 31 year end; (iv) acquisition of Cogility Software Corporation, a Delaware corporation, through a to be formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation via a "reverse merger" pursuant to which Cogility would be merged with and into a wholly-owned single purpose merger subsidiary of the Corporation, with Cogility being the survivor of the Merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation; (v) effectuating a post acquisition option plan for the officers, directors and employees of the Corporation; and, (vi) re-electing the Corporation’s board of directors  (collectively, the “Corporate Actions”).

The capitalization increase will be effectuated pursuant to Certificate of Amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Articles of Incorporation in the form as annexed hereto as Appendix A.
 
The Company will pay all costs associated with the distribution of the definitive Information Statement.
 
The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), and a majority of the Company's stockholders at the Board’s recommendation, have already approved of the Corporate Actions described above by written consent in lieu of meeting pursuant to Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes of the State of Nevada (the “NRS”). Therefore, we are not seeking approval for the Amendment or any related capitalization change, or other Corporate Actions from any of the Company's remaining stockholders, and the Company's remaining stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote on the Amendment or Corporate Actions.  All necessary Board approvals have been obtained as of November 17, 2010 with all stockholder approvals effective as of November 23, 2010, and this Information Statement is being furnished solely for the purpose of providing advance notice to the Company's stockholders of the Amendment as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Nevada law.
 
DATE, TIME AND PLACE INFORMATION
 
Under Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14c-2 promulgated thereunder, the Capitalization Increase and Reverse Split cannot be effectuated until 20 days after the date that a Definitive Information Statement is sent to the Company's stockholders.  This Preliminary Information Statement, as amended  was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2011.  It is anticipated that a Definitive Information Statement will be mailed ten days thereafter, on or about August 10, 2011 (the “Mailing Date”) to the stockholders of the Company as of the close of business on August 2, 2011 (the “Record Date”).  The Company expects to file the Amendment so as to effectuate both the Capitalization Increase and Reverse Split with the Nevada Secretary of State, approximately 20 days after the Mailing Date.  The effective date of the Amendment and related Capitalization and Reverse Split therefore, is expected to be on or after August 31, 2011.

DISSENTER’S RIGHT OF APPRAISAL
 
Pursuant to the NRS, our stockholders are not entitled to dissenters' rights of appraisal with respect to the Capitalization Increase or Reverse Split as effectuated by the Amendment and the Company will not independently provide shareholders with any such right.
 
VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF
 
Common Stock
 
There will be no changes to any of the rights or privileges associated with our Common Stock.  The following summarizes the rights of holders of our Common Stock before and after the filing of the Amendment relating to the capitalization change:
 
  · 
Each holder of shares of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by our stockholders generally, including the election of directors;
 
  · 
There are no cumulative voting rights;
 
  · 
The holders of our Common stock are entitled to dividends and other distributions as may be declared from time to time by the Board out of funds legally available for that purpose, if any, subject to any dividend rights of the preferred stock, if any;
 
  · 
Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of our assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction  of all our liabilities and the payment of the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock; and
 
  · 
The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights to purchase shares of our stock, and are not entitled to the benefits of any redemption or sinking fund provisions.
 
Dividends
 
We have not declared or paid cash dividends or made distributions in the past, and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends or making distributions in the foreseeable future.  We currently intend to retain and reinvest future earnings, if any, in order to finance our operations.
 
Outstanding Shares And Voting Rights

Currently, our only class of securities entitled to vote on the matters to be acted upon is common stock, of which the total amount presently outstanding is 5,832,482 shares, each share being entitled to one vote.  The record date for determination of the security holders entitled to vote or give consent is August 2, 2011.  The consent of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote upon the matter is required for approval of the actions.  The board of directors and Stockholders owning 3,591,206 which constitute a majority of 61.5% of the outstanding voting securities of Acquired Sales Corp. have unanimously adopted, ratified and approved resolutions to effect the actions listed above.  No other votes are required or necessary.  We anticipate effecting the reverse split, acquisition and all other actions set out herein within two months of the date that this information statement is filed.

Our Board adopted resolutions approving and authorizing the Amendment containing both the Capitalization Increase and related Reverse Split by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting and selected and fixed August 2, 2011 as the Record Date for determining the stockholders entitled to give written consent and/or to receive this Information Statement.  Effective as of November 23, 2010, a majority of the stockholders of the Company took action by written consent and approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with respect to the Reverse Split and Amendment.
 
As of the Record Date, the Company has authorized capital stock of 60,000,000 shares, of which 50,000,000 are shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 are shares of preferred stock with 5,832,482 of Common Stock and no shares of preferred stock are outstanding on such date.
 
The following 11 shareholders, being beneficial owners of an aggregate of 3,591,206 shares of Common Stock constituting approximately 61.5% of  our 5,832,482  shares of outstanding authorized Common Stock,  voted in favor of the Amendment effecting the Reverse Split, Capitalization Increase and other Corporate Actions described above:

Roberti is the trustee, and Mr. Jacobs’ children are the beneficiaries. The trust is irrevocable.
 
Each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders.
 
Pursuant to Chapter 78 of the NRS, the approval of a majority of the Company's voting power is required in order to effectuate the Amendment and Corporate Actions.  Chapter 78 of the NRS eliminates the need to hold a special meeting of the Company's stockholders to approve the Corporate Actions, including the Amendment and related capitalization change by providing that, unless the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws state otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the Company's voting power in favor of such action.  Neither the Articles of Incorporation nor the Bylaws of the Company state otherwise and a majority of the Corporation’s common stock have voted in favor of the Amendment and other Corporate Actions.
 
The Amendment would enable the Company, without further stockholder approval, to issue shares from time to time as may be required for proper business purposes, such as raising additional capital for ongoing operations, business and asset acquisitions, stock splits and dividends, present and future employee benefit programs and other corporate purposes.

Our Directors serve in such capacity until the next annual meeting of our shareholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Our officers serve at the discretion of our Board of Directors, until their death, or until they resign or have been removed from office.

Gerard M. Jacobs, , age 56, has served as chairman of our board of directors, chief executive officer, president, secretary, treasurer since July 2007. Mr. Jacobs has been a private investor since 2006. In 2001, Gerard M. Jacobs took control of CGI Holding Corporation, and served as its CEO and member of its board of directors until 2006. Under Gerard M. Jacobs' guidance, CGI Holding Corporation changed its name to Think Partnership Inc., made 15 acquisitions primarily of businesses involved in online marketing and advertising, and succeeded in having its common stock listed on the American Stock Exchange. The company is now known as Inuvo Inc. (NYSE:AMEX: INUV). Previously, in 1995, Mr. Jacobs took control of General Parametrics Corporation, and served as its CEO and member of its board of directors until 1999.

The company is now part of Sims Metal Management Ltd. (NYSE: SMS). Mr. Jacobs is currently a director of Patient Home Monitoring Corp. (TSXV: PHM). We believe that Gerard M. Jacobs’ experience serving as the CEO of three publicly traded companies and as a director of two other publicly traded companies, his work as an investment banker and as an attorney, and his intelligence and educational background, qualifies him to serve as a director of the Corporation.

Gerard M.

He has also served on the board of the Beth Israel Sinai Congregation since 1998 where he served as the President from 2004 until earlier this year. We believe that Joshua A. Bloom, M.D.’s experience serving as a director of the Corporation since 2007, his intelligence and educational background, and his familiarity with the medical field which has in the past and is currently providing candidates for potential acquisitions by the Corporation, qualifies him to serve as a director of the Corporation.

Greene’s experience serving as a director of two publicly traded companies, his work in mergers and acquisitions as an investment banker, his work as an attorney, his intelligence and educational background, and his familiarity with the medical field which has in the past and is currently providing candidates for potential acquisitions by the Corporation, qualifies him to serve as a director of the Corporation.

He has served for the last fifteen years as the Chairman of the Narragansett Bay Commission, Providence, Rhode Island, one of the largest wastewater treatment utilities in the U.S. Mr. Mesolella also served for over twenty years as a member of the Rhode Island House of Representatives, including serving as the Majority Whip. Mr. Mesolella is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of REI, Inc., a diversified real estate investment firm. Mr. Mesolella has served on the board of directors of Think Partnership Inc., an American Stock Exchange company. Mr. Mesolella has raised a great deal of money for charities including the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Mr. Mesolella resides in Rhode Island. We believe that Vincent J. Mesolella’s experience serving as a director of two publicly traded companies including service as Chairman of the Audit Committee of both, his work as a developer and business owner, his experience as an elected public official, his Chairmanship of a major wastewater treatment organization that has been nationally recognized for its excellence, his intelligence and educational background, and his familiarity with the real estate industry which has in the past and is currently providing candidates for potential acquisitions by the Corporation, qualifies him to serve as a director of the Corporation.

There are no agreements or understandings for any of our executive officers or director to resign at the request of another person and no officer or director is acting on behalf of nor will any of them act at the direction of any other person. Directors are elected until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Board Leadership Structure

Prior to the closing of our acquisition of Cogility, our board of directors has seven members. Gerard M. Jacobs is serving as both our principal executive officer and as the Chairman of our board of directors. Mr. Jacobs, who is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard College and attended the University of Chicago Law School as a Weymouth Kirkland Law Scholar, has extensive experience serving as the Chief Executive Officer of several publicly traded companies, and as an independent member of the board of directors of other publicly traded companies, in several industries. Our company presently is a shell corporation, does not pay Mr. Jacobs any salary, and cannot afford any full-time paid employees. While our company, operating as a shell corporation, does not have any formally designated lead independent director, Mr. Jacobs regularly consults with several of our independent directors, and especially with Vincent J. Mesolella and Roger S. Greene, in regard to all aspects of our company’s affairs.

Mr. Mesolella has served on the boards of directors of publicly traded companies, and for the past twenty years has served as the Chairman of the Narragansett Bay Commission, a large wastewater treatment agency in Rhode Island that has won national awards under his leadership. Mr. Mesolella has been actively involved in our evaluation of Cogility as a potential acquisition candidate, and in our negotiations of the terms of our pending acquisition of Cogility. For example, Mr. Mesolella has met twice with Mr. Jacobs, Matthew Ghourdjian and other Cogility employees at Cogility’s office in Alexandria, Virginia. Mr. Mesolella also receives and reviews a copy of each of our monthly bank statements. Mr. Greene, who is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard College and attended Harvard Law School, has also served on the boards of publicly traded companies and has extensive experience with mergers and acquisitions, capital raising, and operations. Mr. Greene introduced Cogility to us, and has been actively involved in our evaluation of Cogility as a potential acquisition candidate, and in our negotiations of the terms of our pending acquisition of Cogility. For example, Mr. Greene has met once with Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian at Cogility’s office in Alexandria, Virginia, and once with Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian at Cogility’s office in Anaheim, California.

We believe that our current leadership structure is appropriate given the limited financial resources of our shell corporation, the extensive experience of our directors, and the collaborative decision-making style of Mr. Jacobs. The board of directors’ role in the risk oversight of our company involves periodic telephonic board meetings, and one-on-one and conference telephone calls and email correspondence questioning Mr. Jacobs regarding his decision-making thought process, reviewing available financial and other documents as appropriate, and brainstorming with Mr. Jacobs as to how to best advance and protect our shareholders’ interests in regard to potential acquisitions and capital raises.

The leadership structure of our board of directors will change following the closing of our acquisition of Cogility. Our board of directors will expand to ten members. New members of our board of directors will include Matthew Ghourdjian, the Chief Executive Officer of Cogility, General Robert Mixon (if he agrees to so serve, and if he does not, then another person designated by Mr. Ghourdjian and acceptable to Mr. Jacobs), and one other person designated by Mr. Ghourdjian and acceptable to Mr. Jacobs. Gerard M. Jacobs will continue to serve as our principal executive officer, but he will share the role of Chairman of our board of directors with Mr. Ghourdjian, as Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian will become Co-Chairmen. Mr. Ghourdjian has a very different background than Mr. Jacobs, having spent years as a partner in the major consulting firms of Arthur Andersen and KPMG Consulting, with his focus being on technology and automation of business processes. We expect that Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian will spend a significant portion of their time and efforts collaborating with each other in regard to the evaluation and negotiation of potential acquisition candidates, and in regard to the planning for the growth and management of Cogility and subsequent acquisitions. We believe that this leadership collaboration by our Co-Chairmen is appropriate and needed to address challenges in regard to the anticipated future growth of our company. In this context, Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian expect to rely upon several of our independent directors for careful advice, especially Mr. Mesolella, Mr. Greene, and the two new independent directors whom Mr. Ghourdjian will designate and Mr. Jacobs will approve. If General Robert Mixon agrees to serve on our board of directors, he will bring a wealth of experience in dealing with federal contracting and military matters, important facets of Cogility’s business.
 
If we decide to make a future acquisition in the medical industry, which we are considering, Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian will also look for advice from our independent directors Dr. Joshua A. Bloom and Richard E. Morrissy, and from non-independent director Dr. James S. Jacobs. At the present time, we do not anticipate formally designating any of our independent directors as our lead outside director, and instead expect to draw upon the knowledge, experience and contacts of all of them. We believe that this anticipated leadership structure, with two Co-Chairmen and several strong independent directors providing counsel to them, is appropriate given the experience of our directors and the collaborative decision-making style of Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian. It is anticipated that, following the closing of our acquisition of Cogility, the board of directors’ role in the risk oversight of our company will involve periodic telephonic board meetings, and one-on-one and conference telephone calls and email correspondence questioning Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian, as the co-leaders of our company, regarding their decision-making thought process, reviewing available financial and other documents as appropriate, and brainstorming with Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Ghourdjian as to how to best advance and protect our shareholders’ interests in regard to potential acquisitions and capital raises, and in regard to operational and growth issues that may face Cogility.

Family Relationships

Gerard M. Jacobs and James S. Jacobs, MD are brothers. There is no other family relationship among any of our officers or directors.

Certain Relationships And Related Transactions

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past ten years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement.  Except as set forth in our discussion below in Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence,” none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Board Composition and Committees

Our board of directors is currently composed of 7 members: Messrs. G. Jacobs, Bloom, Greene, J. Jacobs, McCaffrey, Morrissy and Mesolella.  Our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Bloom, Greene, McCaffrey, Morrissy and Mesolella are independent directors at this time, under the rules of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide, or the AMEX Company Guide, because they do not currently own a significant percentage our shares, are not currently employed by the Company, have not been actively involved in the management of the Company and do not fall into any of the enumerated categories of people who cannot be considered independent directors under the AMEX Company Guide.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

We have an audit committee consisting of Joshua A. Bloom, Roger S. Greene, Michael D. McCaffrey, Vincent J. Mesolella and Richard E. Morrissy as members. We have not adopted an Audit Committee charter. Vincent J. Mesolella serves as our audit committee chairman and financial expert. Our audit committee performs the following functions including:  (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2)  establishing  procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding  accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; and (3) engaging outside advisors. Our Board of Directors has determined that each of its members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and has substantial business experience that results in that member's financial sophistication.  Accordingly, the Board of Directors believes that each of its members has the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations that an audit committee member should have for a business such as the Company.

Board Meetings; Nominating and Committee

Due to the current size and scope of our operations and size and geographic diversity of our Board of Directors, much of the Board’s decision making is made through telephone calls and intermittent informal meetings; when formalization is necessary, the Board conducts formal meetings or acts by written consent.  In the three month transitional period and the year ended December 31, 2010, we held only telephonic Board Meetings and there were no on ground Board Meetings attended by all directors.
 
We have a nominating committee consisting of Joshua A. Bloom, Roger S. Greene, Michael D. McCaffrey, Vincent J. Mesolella and Richard E. Morrissy as members.  Mr. McCaffrey is the nominating committee Chairman.

Code of Ethics

We currently have not adopted a code of ethics due to our limited size and operations. Upon completion of acquisition of assets and expansion of our business in 2011, we intend to adopt a code of ethics consisting of written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote (a) Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; (b) Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we files with, or submit to, the Commission and in other public communications made by us; (c) Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; (d) The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and (e) Accountability for adherence to the code.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Such persons are further required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms (including Forms 3, 4 and 5) that they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us with respect to fiscal year 2010, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe all of our directors, executive officers and 10% holders have met all applicable filing requirements, except as described in this paragraph:
 
 
 
14

 

 
The following persons are holders of 10% of our common stock and have not filed a Form 3: L. Dee Hall and the Roberti Jacobs Family Trust. The following persons are directors of the Company and have been awarded options which will vest upon acquisition of Cogility which ownership may have already triggered a requirement to file Form 3s or Form 4s which are not known to have been filed: Gerard M. Jacobs, Joshua Bloom, M.D., Roger Greene, Michael McCaffrey, Richard Morrissy, and Vincent Mesolella. The following persons are directors of the Company and hold warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and have not filed Form 3s or Form 4s, as applicable: Gerard M. Jacobs, Roger Greene, and Vincent Mesolella.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As a result of its continued status as a shell corporation and the non-completion of the Cogility acquisition as of December 31, 2010, we did not experience any cash flow event as a result of any payment to an executive.   We have not provided retirement benefits or severance or change of control benefits to our named executive officer, Gerard M. Jacobs.  Unexercised options or warrants were held by our executive officers at the three month transitional period and year ended 2010 are set out in the following table. Other than the options issuance described herein, no equity awards were made during the three month transitional period and year ended December 31, 2010.

Mr. Jacobs has been issued options to purchase 12,100,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.10 per share. These options will vest upon closing of the Cogility acquisition and expire on November 4, 2020.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $0.0636 per share. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.

The current market price of the underlying common stock shares as of the date of this filing is approximately $0.10 per common share.

Mr. Jacobs’ option compensation described in the preceding table is deemed to be executive compensation.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Company does not have any full time employees and has not entered into long term executive or non-executive employment agreements, so as to limit the Company’s exposure and liability. As indicated elsewhere in this Report, the Company regularly engages outside consultants, accountants and other professional service providers for purposes of providing services to the Company.  The Company endeavors, where able, to issue options in lieu of cash compensation, so as to preserve capital where needed and limit cash risk exposure.

Historically, funding for the Company was sourced from management affiliates which have loaned $44,000 during the past years.  The Corporation limits cash compensation to outside or internal directors and does not have a cash compensation policy.  The Corporation believes that, given the extensive experience of Mr. Jacobs and the rest of the board of directors, and the current opportunity cost factor for each of them, as combined with the fact that each of them has continued to provide services without cash compensation, that the amount of compensation provided in the form of options, which must be purchased for cash, is fair and reasonable for the Corporation. Additionally, the Corporation has, in the past, sought to retain management, which would require that the Corporation enter into long term, inflexible employment arrangements with persons that may have a limited stake in the Corporation’s success as compared to our principals.
 
The Company endeavors to enter into performance based compensation consulting packages with members of the Company’s board of directors.  Performance based compensation tends to be conditioned on achieving milestones such as achieving certain minimum net revenue streams from sources introduced by the director, securing contracts or other specific activities or items for which a particular board member may have skills.

Compensation Committee
 
Our directors and officers do not receive remuneration from us unless approved by the Board of Directors.  No such payment shall preclude any director from serving us in any other capacity and receiving compensation in connection with that service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the three month transitional period and year ended December 31, 2010, no remuneration was paid any of our directors for services as director. We have a compensation committee consisting of Joshua A. Bloom, Roger S. Greene, Michael D. McCaffrey, Vincent J. Mesolella and Richard E. Morrissy as members.  Roger Greene as serves as the committee’s chairman.
 
Aggregate Option Exercise of Last Fiscal year and Fiscal Year-End Option Values

They expire on November 4, 2020. The market value of the options based the weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $0.0636 per share or $769,560.

Audit Fees. Fees for audit services totaled $20,439 in 2010 and $5,630 in 2009, including fees associated with the annual audit, the review of our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, comfort letters, consents, assistance with and review of documents to be filed with the SEC and Section 404 consultation services.
 
Tax Fees. Fees for tax services, including tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning totaled $0 in 2010 and $0 in 2009.

COMPENSATION PLANS

In connection with the letter of intent with Cogility, during the three months ended December 31, 2010 the Company issued to its director and sole officer and five of its non-officer directors, options to purchase an aggregate of 12,600,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.  The options vest upon the acquisition of Cogility and expire on November 4, 2020. The consideration paid for the options is deemed to be a compensation expense. The market value of the options based on the current stock price is $0 due to the fact that the exercise price is $0.10 per share and current market price of the Company’s common stock is also $0.10. There was no income tax benefit recognized by Acquired Sales in connection with the granting (or exercise) of the options. The options may trigger taxable income to the option holders both as a result of issuance and upon exercise.

1.  
In November 2010, Acquired Sales granted these stock options to the members of management and directors that participated in structuring the financing and the merger with Cogility. Those stock options were for the purchase of 12,600,000 pre-split common shares at $0.10 per share, or 630,000 post-split common shares at $2.00 per share. The options vest upon the occurrence of the merger, which as of the date of this filing, has not occurred. The grant-date fair value of these stock options of $801,762 less $308,787 already included in Acquired Sales’ operations is recognized as compensation expense.

 
 
19

 
 

 
2.  
Prior to the merger, Cogility had stock options outstanding that permit the holders thereof to purchase 5,925,000 Cogility common shares at prices ranging from $0.001 to $1.40 per share. In the merger transaction, the Cogility option holders are to exchange these stock options for 1,117,925 Acquired Sales stock options exercisable at prices ranging from $0.001 to $5.00 per share. The exchange of these stock options is considered to be part of the recapitalization of Cogility and is not a modification of the Cogility stock options. There are 3,295,000 of these Cogility stock options that are exchangeable for 621,698 Acquired Sales stock options that vested during 2011 upon Acquired Sales obtaining at least $500,000 of financing and the remaining Cogility stock options vest upon occurrence of the merger with the Acquired Sales subsidiary.
3.  
Gerard M. Jacobs is the only executive officer of the Company. He has received 12,100,000 options.
4.  
The current directors who are not executive officers have collectively received 500,000 options.
5.  
 Of the 1,117,925 Cogility options, Gerard M. Jacobs holds options that are to be exchanged for 571,698 Acquired Sales options should the acquisition of Cogility be completed. This would increase the number of post-reverse split Acquired Sales options held by Mr. Jacobs to 1,176,698 from 605,000 presently held. Roger S. Greene and Vincent J. Mesolella each hold Cogility options that are to be exchanged for 25,000 Acquired Sales options should the acquisition of Cogility be completed. This would increase the number of post-reverse split Acquired Sales options held by each of Mr. Greene and Mr. Mesolella to 30,000 from 5,000 presently held.

Option Plan

The letter of intent date November 4, 2010 and stockholder resolution dated November 11, 2010 authorized Acquired Sales to adopt a stock option plan or plans contemplating, among other things, the issuance of the options to purchase Acquired Sales Stock. Since November 2010, Acquired Sales has issued 12,600,000 options with an exercise price of $0.10 per share to members of Acquired Sales board and executive team, and issued 1,117,925 options in connection with, and exchange for, outstanding Cogility options. In addition, Acquired Sales may issue 1,500,000 options exercisable at $5.00 per share as compensation to employees, consultants, executives, and/or directors of Cogility. However, Acquired Sales has not adopted a formal option or equity compensation plan as of the date of this filing.

AUTHORIZATION OR ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES
OTHERWISE THAN FOR EXCHANGE

Description Of Securities

General

We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 5,832,482 shares are issued and outstanding.  We are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Approximately 4,801,287 shares of the 5,832,482 shares of common stock presently issued and outstanding are "restricted securities" as that term is defined in Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act.  The remaining 1,031,195 shares are believed to be free-trading.

Common Stock

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote at any meeting of stockholders.  Shares of common stock do not carry cumulative voting rights and, therefore, holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock will be able to elect the entire board of directors, and, if they do so, minority stockholders would not be able to elect any members to the board of directors.  Our board of directors has authority, without action by the stockholders, to issue all or any portion of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which would reduce the percentage ownership of the stockholders and which may dilute the book value of the common stock.

Shareholders have no pre-emptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock.  The common stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights.  In the event of liquidation, the shares of common stock are entitled to share equally in corporate assets after satisfaction of all liabilities.  The shares of common stock, when issued, will be fully paid and non-assessable. We currently do not accumulate money on a regular basis in a separate custodial account, commonly referred to as a sinking fund, to be used to redeem debt securities.

 
 
20

 
 
Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends as the board of directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends.  We have not paid dividends on common stock and do not anticipate that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue preferred stock, but no shares of preferred stock have been designated or issued.  The authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock may be divided into and issued in designated series from time to time by one or more resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors.  The Directors in their sole discretion shall have the power to determine the relative powers, preferences, and rights of each series of preferred stock.  In the event we designate shares of preferred stock, we intend that such shares will be entitled to preference over the common stock with respect to the distribution of our assets in the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or in the event of any other distribution of our assets of among our shareholders for the purpose of winding-up our affairs.

We may consider it desirable to have one or more classes of preferred stock to provide us with greater flexibility in the future in the event that we elect to undertake an additional financing and in meeting corporate needs that may arise.  If opportunities arise that would make it desirable to issue preferred stock through either public offerings or private placements, the provision for these classes of stock in our certificate of incorporation would avoid the possible delay and expense of a stockholders’ meeting, except as may be required by law or regulatory authorities.  Issuance of the preferred stock would result, however, in a series of securities outstanding that may have certain preferences with respect to dividends, liquidation, redemption, and other matters over the common stock which would result in dilution of the income per share and net book value of the common stock.  Issuance of additional common stock pursuant to any conversion right that may be attached to the preferred stock may also result in the dilution of the net income per share and net book value of the common stock.  The specific terms of any series of preferred stock will depend primarily on market conditions, terms of a proposed acquisition or financing, and other factors existing at the time of issuance.  As a result, it is not possible at this time to determine the respects in which a particular series of preferred stock will be superior to our common stock.  The board of directors does not have any specific plan for the issuance of preferred stock at the present time and does not intend to issue any such stock on terms which it deems are not in our best interest or the best interests of our stockholders.

Nature and Approximate Amount of Consideration to be Received by Us in Exchange for our Share Issuance to Cogility.
 
In connection with the proposed acquisition of Cogility, Cogility’s shareholders will exchange all of the outstanding 11,530,493 shares of Cogility common shares outstanding and receive 2,175,564 shares of our common stock.

Reasons for the proposed issuance and general effect on the rights of our security holders.

Our long stated objectives have been to seek, investigate and, if warranted, acquire an interest in one or more businesses, particularly focusing upon existing privately held businesses whose owners are willing to consider merging their businesses into our company in order to establish a public trading market for their common stock, and whose managements are willing to operate the acquired businesses as divisions or subsidiaries of our company. Cogility fits into that longtime objective. The general effect on the rights of our security holders will be a dilution of their relative ownership, but an anticipated increase in the value and liquidity of their shares.
 

 
21

 
 
MODIFICATION OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES

Reverse Stock Split

Our board of directors adopted resolutions and a majority of our stockholders approved such resolutions providing for a recapitalization pursuant to which the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock are to be reverse split, or consolidated, on a 1-for-20 basis, so that stockholders will own one share of common stock for each 20 shares of common stock now held by the stockholder.  The reverse split shall be effected on a date not later than December 31, 2011.  No fractional shares will be issued in connection with such recapitalization and fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.  Under the recapitalization, the 5,832,482 issued and outstanding shares of our common stock will be reverse split resulting in 291,624 shares of common stock being issued and outstanding after the recapitalization.

Reasons For The Reverse Split

Our management believes that the reverse split is in the best interest of the company by reducing the perceived depressive effect of a large number of shares may have on the public market for our common stock.  In addition, the reverse split, along with increasing our authorized shares of common stock to 100,000,000 will make available a substantial number of additional authorized, but unissued shares of common stock which will provide increased flexibility in structuring possible future financing, in taking advantage of future business opportunities such as acquisitions, and in meeting corporate needs as they arise, all without the delay and expense of calling a meeting of our stockholders to authorize an increase in authorized capital.

Furthermore, it is ultimately our goal to have our securities listed on the NASDAQ or on a national stock exchange.  Our management believes that such listings can more readily be accomplished with a higher stock price and, since the reverse split will reduce the number of outstanding shares of our common stock, it should have the effect of increasing the price of our common stock in the over-the-counter-market.

The rights of existing stockholders will not be altered and no stockholder will be eliminated as a result of the reverse split.  Fractional shares will not be issued and will be rounded down to the nearest whole share, not to be reduced below one share.  It is possible that stockholders holding less than 100 shares of our common stock may have larger commissions charged to sell such shares and may even result in a larger commission than the value of the shares being sold.

Certificate Transfer

In order to effectuate the reverse split, each stockholder will be entitled to submit his or her old stock certificate (any certificate issued prior to the effective date of the reverse split), to our transfer agent, Colonial Stock Transfer Co., Inc., 66 Exchange Place, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, and be issued in exchange therefore, one new certificate representing one share for each twenty shares reflected in the old certificates, rounded down to the nearest share.
 
The terms of the additional shares of Common Stock will be identical to those of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock.  However, because holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any unissued stock, the issuance of additional shares will reduce the current stockholders' percentage ownership interest in the total outstanding shares of Common Stock.

ACQUIRED SALES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On November 4, 2010, Acquired Sales Corp. (“Acquired Sales”) entered into an agreement with Cogility Software Corporation (“Cogility”) wherein Acquired Sales, through a to-be-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, is to acquire Cogility in a stock-for-stock merger (the “transaction” or the “merger”). Cogility is a developer of Model-Driven Complex Event Processing software technology for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations which have complex information management requirements. Acquired Sales was obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain at least $500,000 of financing and provide the related proceeds to Cogility, which was completed during the three months ended March 31, 2011. Closing of the transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including the completion of a 1-for-20 reverse split of Acquired Sales' common stock, an increase in the authorized common shares of Acquired Sales to 100,000,000 shares, completion of mutually acceptable due diligence, delivery of audited financial statements, execution of definitive merger documents, obtaining necessary third party approvals, and completion of all necessary securities filings.
 
The following unaudited pro forma financial information includes adjustments to the historical financial statements of Acquired Sales and Cogility that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction and factually supportable. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared to present the effects on the historical financial position of Acquired Sales and Cogility as though the merger, the changes to Acquired Sales’ authorized capital and obtaining the required financing had occurred on March 31, 2011. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared to present the effects on the historical results of operations of Acquired Sales and Cogility assuming the merger and obtaining the required financing had occurred at the beginning of each period.
 
Acquired Sales intends to continue its private placement offering of 3% promissory notes with detachable warrants. The accompanying pro forma financial information includes only the issuance of such securities issued through June 19, 2011 and management has no obligation to update this pro forma information for events or transactions occurring after that date. However, if additional securities are issued, the effects of those issuances would affect the pro forma information included herein. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the combined results of operations to be expected in any future period or the results that actually would have been realized had the entities been combined during the three months ended March 31, 2011 or during the year ended December 31, 2010.

ACQUIRED SALES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Through March 31, 2011, Acquired Sales has been a non-operating public shell corporation with no significant assets. During the first quarter of 2011, Acquired Sales issued notes payable and warrants in a private placement offering and loaned most of the proceeds to Cogility. Under current accounting guidance Acquired Sales is not a business for purposes of determining whether a business combination would occur upon the merger of Cogility into a newly-formed subsidiary of Acquired Sales. The shareholders and management of Cogility will gain operating control of the combined company after the transaction. Accordingly, Cogility is, under current accounting guidance, considered the accounting acquirer and the results of its operations will be the historical results of operations of the combined company, restated for the effects of the restructured capital structure discussed herein.

The transactions required to accomplish the merger are recognized as follows: (1) the recapitalization of Cogility by recognizing the Acquired Sales common shares issued in exchange for the Cogility shares in a manner equivalent to a 1-for-5.3 reverse stock split, (2) the Acquired Sales common shares that remain outstanding, on a 1-for-20 reverse split basis, are recognized as the issuance of common shares by Cogility for the net liabilities of Acquired Sales at their fair values, (3) the issuance of stock options to the members of management of the combined company recognized as compensation expense based on the fair value of the stock options, and (4) the issuance of notes payable and warrants by the combined company. All references hereafter are to Acquired Sales post-split common shares unless stated otherwise. The specific transactions and their effects on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

 
A – Cogility shareholders owning the outstanding 11,530,493 Cogility common shares receive 2,175,564 Acquired Sales common shares, or one Acquired Sales common share for each 5.3 Cogility common shares outstanding. The historical Cogility financial statements are restated on a retroactive basis for all periods presented for the effects of this 5.3-for-1 reverse stock split.

 
B –Acquired Sales reverse splits its common shares outstanding on a 1-for-20 basis, which results in the 5,832,482 Acquired Sales pre-split common shares currently outstanding becoming 291,624 Acquired Sales common shares. For financial reporting purposes, the 291,624 common shares are effectively issued in exchange for the assumption of the $202,700 of net assets of Acquired Sales and are recorded at the fair value of the net assets of $202,700.
 
 
 
C – Prior to the merger, Cogility had stock options outstanding that permit the holders thereof to purchase 5,925,000 Cogility common shares at prices ranging from $0.001 to $1.40 per share. In the merger transaction, the Cogility option holders exchange these stock options for 1,117,925 Acquired Sales stock options exercisable at prices ranging from $0.001 to $5.00 per share. The exchange of these stock options is considered to be part of the recapitalization of Cogility and is not a modification of the Cogility stock options. There are 3,295,000 of these Cogility stock options that are exchangeable for 621,698 Acquired Sales stock options that vested during 2011 upon Acquired Sales obtaining at least $500,000 of financing and the remaining Cogility stock options vest upon occurrence of the merger with the Acquired Sales subsidiary; accordingly. For purposes of these pro forma financial statements, the remaining unrecognized grant-date fair value of these Cogility stock options of $3,325 and $507,723 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, is recognized as compensation expense.

In November 2010, Acquired Sales granted stock options to the members of management and the board of directors that participated in structuring the financing and the merger with Cogility. Those stock options were for the purchase of 12,600,000 pre-split common shares at $0.10 per share, or 630,000 post-split common shares at $2.00 per share. The options vest upon the occurrence of the merger. For purposes of these pro forma financial statements, the remaining unrecognized grant-date fair value of these Acquired Sales Corp. stock options of $224,123 and $492,975 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, is recognized as compensation expense.

ACQUIRED SALES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 
Cogility and Acquired Sales have authorized the grant, at the closing of the merger, of stock options for the purchase of 1,500,000 common shares at $5.00 per share. At that date, 750,000 of the stock options will be granted and the remaining 750,000 stock options are to be granted within twelve months of the closing of the merger. The stock options will vest to employees, directors or consultants that remain employed for three years from the date of the merger and the Company has earnings, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, of at least $1,000,000 in each of four consecutive calendar quarters during the first twelve calendar quarters following the closing date of the merger. For purposes of these pro forma financial statements, all 1,500,000 stock options are presumed to have been granted at the beginning of each period presented.

Cogility and Acquired Sales have authorized the grant to a consultant of stock options for the purchase of 75,000 common shares, with 25,000 options exercisable at $0.001 per share and 50,000 options exercisable at $2.00 per share. These options, which will be issued at the closing of the merger, vest immediately and are exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the closing of the merger.

The fair value of the 1,575,000 stock option granted or presumed to be granted is estimated on the grant dates or presumed grant dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of an appropriate industry sector index, comparable companies in the index and other factors. The expected term of each option is based on the midpoint between the date the option vests and the contractual term of the option. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected term of the related option. Forfeitures due to employee termination are estimated based on historical experience rates. The weighted-average fair value was $0.80 per share, or $1,258,207 in total, and was based on the following weighted-average assumptions: 77.85% expected volatility; 0% expected dividend yield; 3. 96 years expected term; and 2.04% risk-free interest rate. The related compensation expense is being recognized over the period the options vest and, for purposes of these pro forma financial statements, $208,820 of compensation expense was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and  $495,016 of compensation expense was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2010.

 
D – During the three months ended March 31, 2011, Acquired Sales issued $920,000 of 3% promissory notes and warrants to purchase 460,000 post-split shares of common stock at $2.00 per share. The promissory notes accrue interest at the stated rate of 3% per annum payable, mature on December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of the assets of Acquired Sales. The proceeds were allocated $610,998 to the notes payable and $309,002 to the warrants based on their relative fair values. The resulting $309,002 discount to the notes payable is being amortized over the term of the promissory notes using the interest method and is causing the notes payable to have an effective interest rate of 14.5%. The pro forma statements of operations have been adjusted to reflect interest expense on these promissory notes as though they had been issued at the beginning of each period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, Cogility issued $820,000 of 5% promissory notes to Acquired Sales Corp. Interest is payable quarterly, the notes are due December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of Cogility's assets.  The pro forma statements of operations have been adjusted to eliminate the related intercompany interest income and interest expense.

 
E –   On September 22, 2010, the majority shareholder of Cogility signed an agreement that in the event of the merger, $73,558 of accrued compensation payable would be forgiven. The accompanying pro forma financial statements recognize this transaction as the conversion of the $73,588 of accrued compensation to officers to additional paid-in capital without the issuance of additional common shares.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 
Pro Forma Loss per Share – Pro forma basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the pro forma net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing the pro forma net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents assumed to be outstanding during the period. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined by the treasury stock method.

The Cogility common shares outstanding have been restated to reflect the 2,175,564 common shares that the Cogility shareholders will receive in the merger. For purposes of computing basic and diluted loss per share those common shares are considered to have been outstanding during the entire three months ended March 31, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010. The 291,624 Acquired Sales common shares that remain outstanding are considered to have been issued on January 1, 2010 for purposes of computing basic loss per share. Pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share was computed as follows:

Stock options to acquire 3,323,868 common shares and warrants to acquire 460,000 common shares were excluded from the calculation of pro forma diluted loss per share as their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

Acquired Sales Corp.
(a development stage enterprise)
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
 
Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Acquired Sales Corp. (the “Company”) were prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management of the Company (“Management”) believes that the following disclosures are adequate and sufficient to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K report for the transition period from October 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010.

These unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of Management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any other period.

Note 2: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. In August 2001, the Company ceased all of its prior operations and remained dormant from then until May 27, 2004 when it began new development stage activities.

On November 15, 2010 the Company’s Board of Directors approved and with a record date of November 23, 2010 a majority of the Company’s stockholders approved by written consent the following actions: a) increase the number of shares of common stock authorized to be issued from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000; b) to change the fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31; c) a 1-for-20 reverse split of common stock and warrants; d) the acquisition of Cogility Software Corporation (“Cogility”); and e) a stock option plan relating to the options associated with the letter of intent with Cogility. The Company has undertaken to change its year end to December 31; however, none of the other approved actions have been consummated.

Development stage enterprise – The Company is a development stage enterprise and has only generated revenue in relation to interest earned on a long-term $820,000 loan made to Cogility. Otherwise, the Company’s efforts have been devoted primarily to raising capital, borrowing funds and attempting to enter into a reverse acquisition with an operating entity. On November 4, 2010 the Company entered into a letter of intent with Cogility and commenced taking such other action as required by such letter of intent as further described in Note 5.

Fair value of financial instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.  The carrying amounts reported for current liabilities: notes payable – related parties, approximate fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates. Long-term liabilities are described in Note 7.

Basic and diluted loss per share – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potential dilutive common shares. There were 12,600,000 stock options outstanding at March 31, 2011 that are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
 
Business condition – The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company sustained a net loss of $319,248 and generated revenue only incidental to interest collected in the amount of $3,921 from a long-term note receivable from Cogility. At March 31, 2011 the Company had $92,266 in cash and current liabilities of $83,648. Loans from related parties and others have provided the needed capital for the Company to date; however, substantial doubt remains about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company's ability to meet its ongoing financial requirements is dependent on management being able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, the realization of which is not assured. In addition, the Company is dependent on management being willing to continue to serve without monetary remunerations. In addition, the Company has entered into substantial long-term indebtedness as a result of the long-term liabilities described in Note 7.

Recently adopted accounting standards – Recent accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB (or rules and interpretive releases of the SEC) are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3 – Related Party Transactions

During January and November 2009, the Company issued demand promissory notes to the spouse of the Company’s sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $10,000 and $10,000, respectively. These notes bear interest at 10% per annum and are unsecured. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 the Company incurred interest expense made cash payments for interest in the amounts of $493 and $493, respectively.

During April 2010, the Company issued a demand promissory note to an entity related to its sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $4,000. This note bears interest at 10% per annum and is unsecured. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred interest expense of $101 and made cash payments for interest in the same amount.

On October 12, 2010, the Company issued a demand promissory note to an entity related to its sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $20,000. This note bears interest at 10% per annum and is unsecured. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred interest expense of $493 and made cash payments for interest in the same amount.

During the January and February of 2011, the Company entered into long-term notes payable in the amount of $400,000 with several entities and individuals related to the Company. These long-term notes bear interest at 3% per annum and are due December 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred interest expense of $1,683 and made cash payments for interest in the same amount. These long-term notes have been discounted on the Company’s financial statements as described in Note 7.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company loaned $600,000 of cash to Cogility, assumed from Cogility a $200,000 note payable to an entity related to the sole officer of the Company and assigned and transferred to Cogility a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez Systems, all in exchange for $820,000 of promissory notes receivable from Cogility. The Cogility notes receivable bears interest at 5% per annum payable quarterly beginning March 31, 2011, are due December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of Cogility's assets.

Note 4 – Waiver of Tax Liability Penalty

During the period from December 31, 1998 through December 31, 1999, the business operated by the Company prior to becoming dormant withheld payroll taxes and incurred payroll tax obligations that were not paid to the United States Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in a timely manner. Subsequently, these taxes were paid; however, penalties for the Company’s failure to make these payments in a timely manner were assessed, including interest on the penalties. The Company accrued interest on the unpaid penalties through December 31, 2006. In January 2007, the Company filed with the IRS a request for a compromise and settlement with respect to these outstanding obligations, which was accepted in September 2007. As a result, the Company paid $12,000 to extinguish the liability, $2,838 for legal and filing fees, and $60,364 was recognized as income.

Note 5 – Letter of Intent

On November 4, 2010 the Company entered into an Agreement (the “November 4, 2010 Agreement”) which included a letter of intent with Cogility, a software technology company specializing in Model-Driven Complex Event Processing for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations with complex information management requirements, for a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to acquire Cogility in a stock-for-stock merger (“Cogility Merger”). The closing of the Cogility Merger contemplated by the letter of intent is subject to a number of conditions including completion of mutually acceptable due diligence, execution of definitive merger documents and obtaining necessary third party approvals. In addition, Cogility will be required to deliver audited financial statements to the Company and the Company will be required to complete a 1-for-20 reverse split of its common stock, options and warrants as a condition precedent to the closing of the Cogility Merger and all necessary filings with the SEC.

Pursuant to the November 4, 2010 Agreement:

(1) on November 4, 2010, the Company issued to its director and sole officer and five of its non-officer directors options to acquire an aggregate of 12,600,000 pre-split shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $.10 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 630,000 options, each with an exercise price of $2.00 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the closing of the Cogility Merger;

(2) on November 4, 2010, Cogility issued to the Company’s sole officer options to acquire an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Cogility’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.377358 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split and the closing of the Cogility Merger, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 471,698 options, each with an exercise price of $2.00 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the completion of a private placement of common stock, preferred stock, convertible preferred stock, debt, or convertible debt by Cogility or the Company either prior to, simultaneously with, or after the closing of the Merger in the amount of $500,000 or more;

(3) on November 4, 2010, Cogility issued to the Company’s sole officer and two of its directors options to acquire an aggregate of 795,000 shares of Cogility’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split of the Company’s common stock and the closing of the Cogility Merger, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 150,000 Company options, each with an exercise price of $.001 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the completion of a private placement of common stock, preferred stock, convertible preferred stock, debt, or convertible debt by Cogility or the Company either prior to, simultaneously with, or after the closing of the Merger in the amount of $500,000 or more;

(a development stage enterprise)
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
 
(4) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue an aggregate of 2,175,564 post-split shares of its common stock to Cogility stockholders (which include an affiliate of the Company's sole officer and one of the Company's directors);
 
(5) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue to Cogility’s option holders (these being in addition to options mentioned in (2) and (3) above), options to acquire an aggregate of 497,170 post-split shares of the Company's common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.06 to $5.00 per share; and

(6) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue options to acquire an aggregate of 1,500,000 post-split shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share to the Company’s current or future directors, officers, employees or consultants of or to Cogility.

Note 6 – Stock Options

In connection with the letter of intent described in Note 5, the Company issued to its director and sole officer and five of its non-officer directors on November 4, 2011, options to purchase an aggregate of 12,600,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.

The total value of the options issued was determined to be $801,762 and charged general and administrative expense for the period ended December 31, 2010, in the amount of $308,787. The Company used an estimated merger date of April 1, 2011, at December 31, 2010 for the purpose of recognizing the related compensation expense for the period then ended. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related option. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience rates. At March 31, 2011, the Company reevaluated the estimated merger date and determined it to be June 15, 2011. As a result, for the period ended March 31, 2011, the Company charged general and administrative expense in the amount of $268,852 and there is $224,123 of unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options granted, which is expected to be recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2011. There was no income tax benefit recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Note 7 – Long-term Liabilities

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued $920,000 of 3% promissory notes and warrants to purchase 9,200,000 pre-split shares of common stock at $0.10 per share to accredited investors in a private placement offering. The notes payable and the warrants were issued in exchange for $700,000 in cash, the exchange and settlement of a $200,000 note payable to an entity related to the sole officer of the Company, which note payable had previously been assumed from Cogility, and the transfer and assignment from an unrelated third party of a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez Systems. Notes for $400,000 were issued to related parties, which included $200,000 of the cash received (see Note 3). The promissory notes accrue interest at the rate of 3% per annum payable quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning March 31, 2011, mature on December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of the assets of the Company. The warrants are exercisable through June 14, 2016.
 
The fair value of the warrants issued was evaluated based on an estimated closing date of June 15, 2011 and was estimated to be $465,275 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions: estimated future volatility of 82.46%; risk-free interest rate of 1.1%; dividend yield of 0% and an estimated term of 2.65 years. The warrants qualify to be recognized as stockholders’ equity; therefore, the consideration received was allocated to the notes payable and the warrants based on their relative fair values and resulted in $345,347 being allocated to the notes payable, $265,651 to notes payable – related party, and $309,002 allocated to the warrants. The resulting discount to the notes payable is being amortized over the term of the promissory notes using the interest method and cause the notes payable to have an effective interest rate of 14.5%. The Company recognized $14,920 of amortization of the discount on the notes payable as interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

In addition to the 3% promissory notes and warrants described above, at any time during the first 90 days following the date of the completion of the proposed merger with Cogility, each investor in the private placement offering has the right to make a second loan to the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as the 3% promissory notes and warrants described above. Under current accounting guidance, none of the consideration received was allocated to the investors’ rights to make additional loans.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and the Shareholders
Acquired Sales Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Acquired Sales Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2010, for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and for cumulative period from May 27, 2004 (date of inception of the development stage) through December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Acquired Sales Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2010, for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and for the cumulative period from May 27, 2004 (date of inception of the development stage) through December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, it incurred losses from operations and had negative cash flows from operating activities. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had not generated any revenue from operations since the date of inception of the development stage through December 31, 2010, and the Company had a capital deficit and a working capital deficit. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to Financial Statements



 
Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Acquired Sales Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. In August 2001, the Company ceased all of its prior operations and remained dormant from then until May 27, 2004 when it began new development stage activities.

On November 15, 2010 the Company’s Board of Directors approved and with a record date of November 23, 2010 a majority of the Company’s stockholders approved by written consent the following actions: a) increase the number of shares of common stock authorized to be issued from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000; b) to change the fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31; c) a 1-for-20 reverse split of common stock and warrants; d) the acquisition of Cogility Software Corporation (“Cogility”); and e) a stock option plan relating to the options associated with the letter of intent with Cogility. The Company has undertaken to change its year end to December 31; however, none of the other approved actions have been consummated.

Development stage enterprise – The Company is a development stage enterprise and has not engaged in any operations that have generated revenue. The Company’s efforts have been devoted primarily to raising capital, borrowing funds and attempting to enter into a reverse acquisition with an operating entity. On November 4, 2010 the Company entered into a letter of intent with Cogility and commenced taking such other action as required by such letter of intent as further described below.

Use of estimates – These financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The use of estimates and assumptions may also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Fair value of financial instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.  The carrying amounts reported for notes payable approximate fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates.
 
Basic and diluted loss per share – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potential dilutive common shares. There were 12,600,000 stock options outstanding at December 31, 2010 that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect was anti-dilutive. There were 175,000 warrants outstanding at December 31, 2009 (unaudited) and September 30, 2010 and 2009 that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect was anti-dilutive.  These warrants expired at December 31, 2010.

Business condition – The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no revenue, had net losses of $326,259, $26,019 and $12,336, respectively, and used $14,806, $14,058 and $10,658, respectively, of cash in its operating activities. At December 31, 2010, the Company’s current liabilities included accounts payable of $17,055 and notes payable to related parties in the amount of $44,000. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $5,148 in cash and a working capital deficit of $55,907. Loans from related parties have provided the needed capital for the Company to date; however, substantial doubt remains about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company's ability to meet its ongoing financial requirements is dependent on management being able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, the realization of which is not assured. In addition, the Company is dependent on management being willing to continue to serve without monetary remunerations.

Notes to Financial Statements



Subsequent to December 31, 2010, the Company entered into substantial indebtedness as a result of the AQSP Private Placement (See Note 8).

Stock-Based Compensation  The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.

Recently adopted accounting standards – In February 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance on subsequent events. Under this amended guidance, SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. This guidance was effective immediately and the Company adopted this new guidance upon its effective date.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB (or rules and interpretive releases of the SEC) are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 2 – Related Party Transactions

During January and November 2009, the Company issued demand promissory notes to the spouse of the Company’s sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $10,000 and $10,000, respectively. These notes bear interest at 10% per annum and are unsecured. During the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company incurred interest expense of $504, $1,892 and $667, respectively, and made cash payments for interest in the amounts of $504, $1,974 and $585, respectively.

During April 2010, the Company issued a demand promissory note to an entity related to its sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $4,000. This note bears interest at 10% per annum and is unsecured. During the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the year ended September 30, 2010, the Company incurred interest expense of $101 and $181, respectively and made cash payments for interest in the same amount.

On October 12, 2010, the Company issued a demand promissory note to an entity related to its sole officer and one of its directors in the amount of $20,000. This note bears interest at 10% per annum and is unsecured. During the three months ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred interest expense of $444 and made cash payments for interest in the same amount.

Note 3 – Waiver of Tax Liability Penalty

During the period from December 31, 1998 through December 31, 1999, the business operated by the Company prior to becoming dormant withheld payroll taxes and incurred payroll tax obligations that were not paid to the United States Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in a timely manner. Subsequently, these taxes were paid; however, penalties for the Company’s failure to make these payments in a timely manner were assessed, including interest on the penalties. The Company accrued interest on the unpaid penalties through December 31, 2006. In January 2007, the Company filed with the IRS a request for a compromise and settlement with respect to these outstanding obligations, which was accepted in September 2007. As a result, the Company paid $12,000 to extinguish the liability, $2,838 for legal and filing fees, and $60,364 was recognized as income.

Note 4 – Letter Agreement and Warrants

Effective as of August 2007, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with a private merchant bank to provide certain services related to the identification, evaluation and financing of potential acquisitions by the Company.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the merchant bank fulfilled its obligation to provide services on December 31, 2007.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid a one-time $20,000 fee and prepaid accountable expenses of $10,000. In addition, the Company issued warrants exercisable for 175,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share.  The Company valued these warrants at August 2007 at $11,970 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: 150% volatility; risk free interest rate of 6.25%; 0% yield; and 3.0 year estimated life and charged this amount to expense. Under certain conditions and events, the Company may become obligated to make additional cash payments of six percent of the gross proceeds of an equity investment and three percent of the gross proceeds of a debt investment received by the Company and two percent of the consideration received by the Company as a transactional fee. The Company may also be required to issue additional warrants exercisable at the same price as shares being issued in an equity investment.  These warrants expired on December 31, 2010 at which time none had been exercised.

Note 5 – Letter of Intent

On November 4, 2010 the Company entered into an Agreement (the “November 4, 2010 Agreement”) which included a letter of intent with Cogility, a software technology company specializing in Model-Driven Complex Event Processing for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations with complex information management requirements, for a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to acquire Cogility in a stock-for-stock merger (“Cogility Merger”). The closing of the Cogility Merger contemplated by the letter of intent is subject to a number of conditions including completion of mutually acceptable due diligence, execution of definitive merger documents and obtaining necessary third party approvals. In addition, Cogility will be required to deliver audited financial statements to the Company and the Company will be required to complete a 1-for-20 reverse split of its common stock, options and warrants as a condition precedent to the closing of the Cogility Merger and all necessary filings with the SEC.

Pursuant to the November 4, 2010 Agreement:

(1) on November 4, 2010, the Company issued to its director and sole officer and five of its non-officer directors options to acquire an aggregate of 12,600,000 pre-split shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $.10 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 630,000 options, each with an exercise price of $2.00 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the closing of the Cogility Merger;

(2) on November 4, 2010, Cogility issued to the Company’s sole officer options to acquire an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Cogility’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.377358 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split and the closing of the Cogility Merger, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 471,698 options, each with an exercise price of $2.00 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the completion of a private placement of common stock, preferred stock, convertible preferred stock, debt, or convertible debt by Cogility or the Company either prior to, simultaneously with, or after the closing of the Merger in the amount of $500,000 or more;

(3) on November 4, 2010, Cogility issued to the Company’s sole officer and two of its directors options to acquire an aggregate of 795,000 shares of Cogility’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (upon completion of the 1-for-20 reverse split of the Company’s common stock and the closing of the Cogility Merger, these options shall be converted into an aggregate of 150,000 Company options, each with an exercise price of $.001 per share), with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the completion of a private placement of common stock, preferred stock, convertible preferred stock, debt, or convertible debt by Cogility or the Company either prior to, simultaneously with, or after the closing of the Merger in the amount of $500,000 or more;

(4) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue an aggregate of 2,175,564 post-split shares of its common stock to Cogility stockholders (which include an affiliate of the Company's sole officer and one of the Company's directors);

(5) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue to Cogility’s option holders (these being in addition to options mentioned in (2) and (3) above), options to acquire an aggregate of 497,170 post-split shares of the Company's common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.06 to $5.00 per share; and

(6) at the closing of the Cogility Merger, the Company will issue options to acquire an aggregate of 1,500,000 post-split shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share to the Company’s current or future directors, officers, employees or consultants of or to Cogility.

Note 6 – Stock Options

In connection with the letter of intent described in Note 5, during the three months ended December 31, 2010 the Company issued to its director and sole officer and five of its non-officer directors, options to purchase an aggregate of 12,600,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.

The total value of the options issued was $801,762, and was measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model using the assumptions noted in the following table. The Black-Scholes option pricing model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of an appropriate industry sector index, comparable companies in the index and other factors. The Company estimates the expected life of each option based on the midpoint between the date the option vests and the contractual term of the option. Each of these options vests upon completion of the Cogility Merger, the precise date of which is undeterminable at this time. The Company used an estimated merger date of April 1, 2011 for the purpose of recognizing the related compensation expense. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related option. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience rates. The following table presents the assumptions used in valuing the options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2010:

There was no income tax benefit recognized. As of December 31, 2010, there was $492,975 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options granted, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining estimated service period of 3.0 months.

Note 8 – Subsequent Events

During 2011, the Company issued $920,000 of 3% promissory notes and warrants to purchase 9,200,000 pre-split shares of common stock at $0.10 per share to accredited investors in a private placement offering. The notes payable and the warrants were issued in exchange for $700,000 in cash, the exchange and settlement of a $200,000 note payable to an entity related to the sole officer of the Company, which note payable had previously been assumed from Cogility Software Corporation (Cogility), and the transfer and assignment from an unrelated third party of a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez Systems. Of the cash proceeds received in the offering, $400,000 was from related parties of the Company. The promissory notes accrue interest at the rate of 3% per annum payable quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning March 31, 2011, mature on December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of the assets of the Company. The warrants are exercisable through March 31, 2016.

The fair value of the warrants on the dates issued was $457,388 as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions: estimated future volatility of 82.5%; risk-free interest rate of 1.1%; dividend yield of 0% and an estimated term of 2.5 years. The warrants qualify to be recognized as stockholders’ equity; therefore, the consideration received was allocated to the notes payable and the warrants based on their relative fair values and resulted in $614,497 being allocated to the notes payable and $305,503 allocated to the warrants. The resulting discount to the notes payable of $305,503 is being amortized over the term of the promissory notes using the interest method and cause the notes payable to have an effective interest rate of 14.0%.

In addition to the 3% promissory notes and warrants described above, at any time during the first 90 days following the date of the completion of the proposed merger with Cogility, each investor in the private placement offering has the right to make a second loan to the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as the 3% promissory notes and warrants described above. Under current accounting guidance, none of the consideration received was allocated to the investors’ rights to make additional loans.

In 2011 and with the approval from its board of directors, the Company loaned $600,000 of cash to Cogility, assumed from Cogility a $200,000 note payable to an entity related to the sole officer of the Company and assigned and transferred to Cogility a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez Systems, all in exchange for $820,000 of promissory notes receivable from Cogility. The Cogility notes receivable bear interest at 5% per annum payable quarterly beginning March 31, 2011, are due December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of Cogility's assets.

The following unaudited condensed pro forma balance sheet has been prepared to show the effects of the transactions described above as though they had occurred as of December 31, 2010. The unaudited pro forma information is only illustrative and does not necessarily reflect the financial position of the Company that would have resulted had the transactions actually occurred as of December 31, 2010.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UANAUDITED)


 
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Condensed Financial Statements – The accompanying financial statements of Cogility Software Corporation (the “Company”) are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. In particular, the Company's organization, nature of operations and significant accounting principles were presented in Note 1 to the annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2011.

Loss Per Common Share – Basic loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined by the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents outstanding at both March 31, 2011 and 2010 consisted of employee stock options for the purchase of 5,925,000 and 2,635,000 common shares, respectively.  These common share equivalents were excluded from the computation of the diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 because their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 2 - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company has a history of recurring losses which has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $6,025,622 at March 31, 2011. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized only $18,388 and $40,167 of revenue, respectively, and suffered losses of $1,189,932 and $581,231, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company used $827,225 and $345,340, respectively, of cash in its operating activities. At March 31, 2011, the Company had negative working capital of $1,340,507 and a stockholders’ deficit of $2,047,076. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain or replace present financing, to obtain additional capital from investors and to succeed in its future operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

In order for the Company to remain as a going concern, it will need to secure additional financing as well as enter into and complete profitable contracts.

NOTE 3 – EARNINGS AND COSTS ON UNCOMPLETED CONTRACTS

At March 31, 2011 the Company was in the process of providing software license, hardware and services to a customer. Revenue and costs on the uncompleted contracts were deferred at March 31, 2011 and will be recognized upon completion of the contracts. Contract billings in excess of contract costs on uncompleted contracts at March 31, 2011 were as follows:

       
Billings to date
  $ 129,737  
Less: Costs incurred on uncompleted contracts
    (43,512 )
Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts
  $ 86,225  

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN AND LOAN TO CORTEZ SYSTEMS

On October 1, 2010, the Company signed an investment agreement for the purchase of 49% of the common stock of Cortez Systems (Cortez) for $526, a recently formed company in the business of providing software project applications and related services to government and non-government clients. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to advance Cortez $5,000 each month during the period October 2010 through March 2011, for a total of $30,000 for working capital needs. Due to the Company’s own lack of liquidity, as of December 31, 2010, the Company had not made the required payments; however, an unrelated individual loaned Cortez $20,000 for working capital needs on December 1, 2010.

On March 11, 2011 the individual assigned his loan receivable from Cortez to Acquired Sales Corp. in exchange for the issuance of a promissory note and warrants issued by Acquired Sales Corp. to the individual. Cogility then issued a note payable to Acquired Sales Corp. and was assigned the loan receivable from Cortez. Interest accrued prior to the assignment, i.e. from December 1, 2010 to March 11, 2011, is payable by Cogility to the individual. On March 17, 2011, Cogility loaned Cortez an additional $10,000 in accordance with the October 1, 2010 investment agreement. The note receivable from Cortez bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due September 30, 2012. The balance owed to Cogility by Cortez, including accrued interest, was $30,588.

NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Accrued Compensation – At March 31, 2011, the Company has recorded accrued compensation comprised of $128,247 in deferred payroll, $14,282 in employee reimbursements payable, and commissions payable to two directors in the amount of $215,967.  The accrued compensation portion primarily relates to a 25% payroll deferral program for all employees that began on January 26, 2011. The Company anticipates that the deferred salary will be remitted to the employees at such time that the Company’s financial position allows the Company to do so.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UANAUDITED)


 
Short-Term Notes Payable to Related Party – During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the majority shareholder of the Company paid $3,615 of expenses on behalf of the Company under the terms of an unsecured promissory note agreement bearing interest at 10% per annum and due on demand. At December 31, 2010, the Company owed the majority shareholder of the Company $69,943 for cash advances to the Company and for the payment of expenses on behalf of the Company. The details of the transactions with the majority shareholder were as follows:

       
10% Note payable, payments made in behalf of the Company
  $ 3,615  
Accrued consulting fees, balance beginning of period
    69,943  
Total short-term notes payable to related party
  $ 73,558  
 
On September 22, 2010, the majority shareholder signed an agreement that, in the event of a potential merger with a specified third party, any loans from the shareholder would be forgiven. The shareholder further agreed to make no claims for amounts due to the shareholder under the consulting arrangement and such amounts would also be written off if the potential merger is completed. If the note payable to the majority shareholder is forgiven, the amount forgiven will be recognized on that date as a conversion of the liability to shareholders’ deficit.

Long-Term Notes Payable to Related Parties – On December 14, 2010, the Company issued a promissory note to an entity related to an officer of the Company in the amount of $200,000 to finance working capital needs. The note bore interest at 5% per annum, was due December 31, 2013 and was unsecured. Interest payments were due quarterly starting in March 2011.  On January 31, 2011 this note was assumed by Acquired Sales Corp., an entity related to an officer of the Company.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company has issued seven promissory notes payable to Acquired Sales Corp. in the aggregate principal amount of $820,000 in exchange for $600,000 in cash, the assumption of a $200,000 note payable by the Company to an entity related to an officer of the Company (see the preceding paragraph) and a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez (see Note 4). The notes payable bear interest at 5% per annum payable quarterly beginning March 31, 2011, are due December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of Cogility's assets.

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company borrowed $300,000 from an individual. The note was non-interest bearing if paid by the maturity date of February 15, 2010 or accrued interest at 12% per annum if not paid in full by the maturity date.  On October 15, 2010, the Company renegotiated the note and $18,000 of accrued interest was added to the principal balance due.  The new note bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due on October 15, 2012; however, the note allows the lender to demand partial payment earlier than the maturity date upon the completion of a private placement financing by the Company of common stock or debt convertible into common stock of at least $1,000,000, and payment in full upon the completion of a private placement financing by the Company of common stock or debt convertible into common stock of at least $2,000,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, that same individual paid certain consulting fees on the Company’s behalf. On October 26, 2010 the Company issued a note payable to that individual in the amount of $18,728 as reimbursement for those consulting fees. The note is unsecured, bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due October 25, 2012; however, the note allows the lender to demand partial or payment in full upon the occurrence of the same events described in the preceding paragraph.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On November 4, 2010, Cogility entered into letter of intent with Acquired Sales Corp. (AQSP) whereby, if consummated, would result in a wholly-owned subsidiary of AQSP merging with and into Cogility. Entering into and closing a definitive agreement with AQSP is contingent on due diligence by parties, regulatory approval and AQSP effecting a 1-for-20 reverse stock split.

The Company entered into an agreement with a consultant on February 18, 2011 whereby the Company has agreed to pay the consultant a fee based on net revenue received from a potential new software product. The fee would be equal to 5% of the net revenue received, after deducting software licensing and equipment costs from third parties, from two potential contracts and, for a period of five years, any subsequent revenue from reselling the work product that may result from providing software and services under either of the two potential contracts. No fees were paid or accrued under this agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and the Shareholders
Cogility Software Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cogility Software Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cogility Software Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, at December 31, 2010, the Company had negative working capital, a shareholders’ deficit and had an accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company suffered losses during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and used cash in its operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2010. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization and Nature of Operations – Cogility Software Corporation (Cogility or the Company) is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Cogility has developed software technology that is used to quickly access and analyze data generated by disparate sources and stored in many different databases. Specifically, Cogility provides Model Driven Complex Event Processing software technology for the defense and intelligence branches of the U.S. federal government and private corporations with complex information management requirements.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Significant estimates include share-based compensation forfeiture rates and the potential outcome of future tax consequences of events that have been recognized for financial reporting purposes. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers, net an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company evaluates the collectability of the amount receivable from each customer and provides an allowance for those amounts estimated to be uncertain of collection. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Property and Equipment – Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged to expense as incurred. When depreciable assets are retired, sold, traded in or otherwise disposed, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three to five years. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $42,649, and $32,673, respectively.

Software Development Costs   Software development costs consist primarily of compensation of development personnel, related overhead incurred to develop new products and upgrade and  enhance the Company's current products and fees paid to outside consultants. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the determination of technological feasibility and marketability of a software product are capitalized. Capitalization of costs ceases and amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, no software development costs were capitalized because the time period and cost incurred between technological feasibility and general release for all software product releases was insignificant.

Revenue Recognition – The Company enters into contractual arrangements with end-users of its products to sell software licenses, hardware, consulting services and maintenance services, either separately or in various combinations thereof. For each arrangement, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable, collection of the fees is probable, and delivery of the product or services has occurred. When the Company is the primary obligor or bears the risk of loss, revenue and costs are recorded on a gross basis. When the Company receives a fixed transactional fee, revenue is recorded under the net method based on the net amount retained.

In contractual arrangements where services are essential to the functionality of the software or hardware, or payment of the license fees are dependent upon the performance of the related services, revenue for the software license, hardware and consulting fees are recognized on the completed-contract method when the contract is substantially completed and all related deliverables have been provided to and accepted by the customer. This method is used because the Company is unable to accurately estimate total cost of individual contracts until the contracts are substantially complete. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Claims for additional compensation are recognized during the period such claims are resolved and collected.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Costs of software, hardware and costs incurred in performing the contract services are deferred until the related revenue is recognized. Contract costs include all purchased software and hardware, subcontract and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, equipment, and travel costs as well as depreciation on equipment used in performance of the contractual arrangements. Depreciation on administrative assets and selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Costs in excess of amounts billed are classified as current assets under the caption Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Billings in excess of costs are classified as current liabilities under the caption Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts. Contract retentions are included in accounts receivables.

Software Licensing and Hardware Sales: When software licensing and/or hardware functionality are not dependent upon performance of services, the amount of revenue under the arrangement is allocated to the deliverable elements based on prices the Company sells the separate elements, if objectively determinable. If so determinable, the amounts allocated to the software licensing are recognized as revenue at the time of shipment of the software to the customer. Such sales occur when the Company resells third-party software and hardware systems and related peripherals as part of an end-to-end solution to its customers.  The Company considers delivery to occur when the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer.

Consulting Services: Consulting services are comprised of consulting, implementation, software installation, data conversion, building interfaces to allow the software to operate in integrated environments, training and applications. Consulting services are sold on a fixed-fee and a time-and-materials basis, with payment normally due upon achievement of specific milestones. Consulting services revenue is recognized under the completed-contract method as described above.

Hosting: During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company provided remote management, monitoring, data processing, updating or administrative support of applications software, servers, operating systems and other automation tools to customers. Revenue was comprised of recurring fees for licensing access to and the use of the Company’s application software as a service, on a subscription or on-demand basis over a contractual term. Related recurring fees were recognized as the services were provided. Related one-time set up fees were recognized on a straight-line basis over the longer of the contractual term or the expected life of the relationship.
 
Maintenance and Support Services: Maintenance and support services consist primarily of fees for providing unspecified software upgrades on a when-and-if-available basis and technical support over a specified term, which is typically twelve months. Maintenance revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the related agreement.

Concentration of Significant Customers – At December 31, 2009, accounts receivables from two customers accounted for 91% of total accounts receivable.  In 2009, revenue from one customer was 95% of total revenue. In 2010, revenue from two customers totaled 86% of total revenue.

Income Taxes – Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided on differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements and on tax carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred income tax assets when it is not more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share –The computation of basic loss per share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined by the treasury stock method.

Common stock equivalents outstanding at December 31, 2010 and 2009 consisted of employee stock options for the purchase of 5,925,000 shares and 2,635,000 shares that were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, because their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

Share-Based Compensation Plan – Stock-based compensation to employees and consultants is recognized as a cost of the services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments and is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award or the fair value of the consideration received, whichever is more reliably measureable. Compensation expense is recognized over the period during which service is required to be provided in exchange for the award (the vesting period).

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards – In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance requiring that for each class of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, reporting entities provide additional disclosures describing the reasons for transfers of assets in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of the three-tier fair value hierarchy.  For assets valued using the Level 3 method, entities will be required to separately present purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements.  The guidance also states that an entity should provide fair value measurements for each class of asset or liability, and explain the inputs and techniques used in calculating Levels 2 and 3 fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual filings for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.  The Company expects that the adoption of this guidance will not have material impact on the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs). This new guidance revises previous guidance by eliminating the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, by establishing a new approach for determining who should consolidate VIEs and by changing when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a VIE.  This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2 - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company has a history of recurring losses which has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $4,835,690 at December 31, 2010. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company suffered losses of $200,724 and $769,332, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company used $181,118 of cash in its operating activities. At December 31, 2010, the Company had negative working capital of $1,310,416 and a stockholders’ deficit of $1,424,042. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain or replace present financing, to obtain additional capital from investors and to succeed in its future operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

In order for the Company to remain as a going concern, it will need to secure additional financing as well as enter into and complete profitable contracts. Subsequent to December 31, 2010, the Company entered into a series of borrowings from entities and persons affiliated with the Company or its officers and directors, as further described in Note 12.

NOTE 3 – UNCOMPLETED CONTRACTS

At December 31, 2010 the Company did not have any long term contracts in progress.  At December 31, 2009, the Company was in the process of providing software licenses, hardware and services to customers under two contracts. The first contract was in the amount of $1,042,552 to provide software and installation services. This contract was completed during the second quarter of 2010. The second contract was in the amount of $3,394,874 to provide hardware and services, which contract was also completed during the second quarter of 2010. Under the terms of these contracts, the Company billed the customers upon the completion of specified milestones.  Through December 31, 2009, the Company had billed $2,158,207 for the software licenses, hardware and services provided under these contracts. Revenue and costs on the uncompleted contracts were deferred at December 31, 2009 and were recognized upon completion of the contracts. Contract billings in excess of contract costs on uncompleted contracts at December 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN AND LOAN TO CORTEZ SYSTEMS

On October 1, 2010, the Company signed an investment agreement for the purchase of 49% of the common stock of Cortez Systems (Cortez) for $526, a recently formed company in the business of providing software project applications and related services to government and non-government clients. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to advance Cortez $5,000 each month during the period October 2010 through March 2011, for a total of $30,000 for working capital needs. Due to the Company’s own lack of liquidity, as of December 31, 2010, the Company had not made the required payments; however, an unrelated individual loaned Cortez $20,000 for working capital needs on December 1, 2010.

On March 11, 2011 the individual assigned his loan receivable from Cortez to Acquired Sales Corp. in exchange for the issuance of a promissory note and warrants issued by Acquired Sales Corp. to the individual. Cogility then issued a note payable to Acquired Sales Corp. and was assigned the loan receivable from Cortez. Interest accrued prior to the assignment, i.e. from December 1, 2010 to March 11, 2011, is payable by Cogility to the individual. On March 17, 2011, Cogility loaned Cortez an additional $10,000 in accordance with the October 1, 2010 investment agreement, bringing the balance owed to Cogility by Cortez to $30,000. The note receivable from Cortez bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due September 30, 2012.

NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Receivable from Employees – During the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009, and 2010 the Company advanced $18,986, $74,276, and $78,532, respectively to certain of its employees. Of these amounts $141,795 was represented by short-term, unsecured advances and the remaining $30,000 was advanced under the terms of a promissory note agreement with one employee. The note was unsecured, bore interest at 6% per annum and was due May 5, 2010. The agreement provided that should the employee remain employed by the Company the entire term of the note, the note would be forgiven on its maturity date. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company received payment of $10,985 against the advances and forgave $25,000 of the advances. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company forgave an additional $99,283 of unsecured advances and the note receivable of $30,000. The forgiveness of the receivable from employees was recorded as compensation expense. At December 31, 2010, the Company held $6,526 in the form of an unsecured advance to an employee; the advance is due on demand and bears no interest.

On September 16 and 29, 2010, the Company signed letters agreeing to pay two executive  officers $47,000 and $168,967, respectively, in one-time commissions, with payment deferred until 30 days after the closing of a private placement of common stock or debt convertible into common stock in the total amount of at least $2,000,000. At December 31, 2010, the Company had accrued the compensation related to these agreements as well as $89,631 of compensation currently payable to employees.

Short-Term Notes Payable to Related Party – At December 31, 2008, the Company owed the majority shareholder of the Company $439,557 for cash advances to the Company and for the payment of expenses on behalf of the Company. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the majority shareholder made $67,000 and $75,000, respectively, of cash advances to the Company. The loans were made under the terms of unsecured promissory note agreements bearing interest at 10% per annum and due on demand.

Through December 31, 2008, the majority shareholder had provided $335,000 of consulting services to the Company that was accrued and remained unpaid at December 31, 2009. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company made payments to the shareholder on the notes payable and the accrued consulting fees totaling $500,445 and $435,328, respectively.  The details of the transactions with the majority shareholder under the terms of the notes payable and the accrued consulting fees payable to the majority shareholder were as follows:

On September 22, 2010, the majority shareholder signed an agreement that, in the event of a potential merger with a specified third party, the loans from the shareholder would be forgiven. The shareholder further agreed to make no claims for amounts due to the shareholder under the consulting arrangement and such amounts would also be written off if the potential merger is completed. If the notes payable to the majority shareholder or the accrued consulting fees are forgiven by the shareholder, the amount forgiven will be recognized on that date as a conversion of the liability to shareholders’ equity.

Long-Term Note Payable to Related Party – On December 14, 2010, the Company issued a $200,000 promissory note to an entity related to an officer of the Company to finance working capital needs. The note bears interest at 5% per annum, is due December 31, 2013 and is unsecured. Interest payments are due quarterly starting in March 2011.

NOTE 7 – NOTES PAYABLE
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company borrowed $300,000 from an individual. The note was non-interest bearing if paid by the maturity date of February 15, 2010 or accrued interest at 12% per annum if not paid in full by the maturity date.  On October 15, 2010, the Company renegotiated the note and $18,000 of accrued interest was added to the principal balance due.  The new note bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due on October 15, 2012; however, the note allows the lender to demand partial payment earlier than the maturity date upon the completion of a private placement financing by the Company of common stock or debt convertible into common stock of at least $1,000,000, and payment in full upon the completion of a private placement financing by the Company of common stock or debt convertible into common stock of at least $2,000,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, that same individual paid certain consulting fees on the Company’s behalf. On October 26, 2010 the Company issued a note payable to that individual in the amount of $18,728 as reimbursement for those consulting fees. The note is unsecured, bears interest at 5.75% per annum and is due October 25, 2012; however, the note allows the lender to demand partial or payment in full upon the occurrence of the same events described in the preceding paragraph.

The carrying amounts of the notes payable did not differ materially from their estimated fair values.

NOTE 8 – COMMON SHARES
 
During 2009 and 2010, the chief executive officer and majority shareholder of the Company provided services to the Company, which services were determined by the board of directors to have a fair value of $250,000 each year. The Company paid the executive officer $112,500 and $137,500 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The Company has recognized a capital contributions of $137,500 and $112,500 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for the services provided by the executive officer in excess of the amounts paid.

NOTE 9– EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 2003, the board of directors and the shareholders approved and adopted a non-qualified employee stock option plan (the Plan). The Plan permits the grant of stock options to the Company’s employees for up to 6,000,000 common shares. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders. Options awarded are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the Company’s common shares at the date of grant and vest from immediately to over a three-year period.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Black-Scholes option pricing model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of an appropriate industry sector index, comparable companies in the index and other factors. The Company estimates expected life of each option based on the midpoint between the date the option vests and the contractual term of the option. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related option.

At December 31, 2010, the Company has U.S. Federal net operating loss carry forwards of $3,934,471 that will expire in 2026 through 2031 if not used by those dates and California state net operating loss carry forwards of $4,838,775 that are currently suspended and not available to offset future taxable income until at least 2012 and that will expire in 2019 through 2031 if not used by those dates.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective income tax rate over the next 12 months. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination for the years ended December 31, 2007 through 2010. A reconciliation of the amount of tax benefit computed using the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate to the provision for income taxes is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
Entering into and closing a definitive agreement with AQSP is contingent on due diligence by both parties, regulatory approval and AQSP effecting a 1-for-20 reverse stock split.

The Company entered into an agreement with a consultant on February 18, 2011 whereby the Company has agreed to pay the consultant a fee based on net revenue received from a potential new software product. The fee would be equal to 5% of the net revenue received, after deducting software licensing and equipment costs from third parties, from two potential contracts and, for a period of five years, any subsequent revenue from reselling the work product that may result from providing software and services under either of the two potential contracts.

NOTE 12- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Through March 17, 2011, the Company has issued seven promissory notes payable to Acquired Sales Corp. in the aggregate principal amount of $820,000 in exchange for $600,000 in cash, the assumption of a $200,000 note payable by the Company to an entity related to an officer of the Company (see Note 6) and a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez (see Note 5). The notes payable bear interest at 5% per annum payable quarterly beginning March 31, 2011, are due December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of Cogility's assets.

The Cogility Software Business

Cogility has developed unique, patent-pending software tools that quickly provide solutions to complicated data management and analysis problems, sometimes referred to as “Complex Event Processing”.  Cogility’s software tools automate many mundane tasks in order to reduce the number of programmers required, and allow a user to focus on solving complex problems at a higher level of abstraction using “models”, sometimes referred to as “Model-Driven Architecture”.

Cogility’s software tools, first, allow a user to identify all of the data that the user needs to be managed and analyzed, and then second, to create rules, which can be easily changed, that specify what happens to the data which is being managed and analyzed.  Cogility’s software tools automatically perform the complex tasks involved in implementing these rules, including creating and distributing all necessary changes within the software processing code.  This typically reduces the upfront and downstream time/cost involved in developing software applications by 50% or more.

Cogility provides Model Driven Complex Event Processing software technology for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations with complex information management requirements. Cogility's website can be reviewed at www.cogility.com. Cogility is the first company to deliver a comprehensive offering that melds the complexities inherent in a multi-vendor enterprise integration solution into a single, yet sophisticated product. Cogility's software technology reaches beyond the promise of current composite application solutions to deliver an advanced, end-to-end solution for the design, deployment, execution, testing, monitoring and maintenance of complex, enterprise-wide composite applications.

The Terms of the Cogility Software Transaction

For the past many years, Acquired Sales has been a non-operating public shell corporation with no significant assets. The Cogility Transaction allows us to improve our operations, expand our assets and advance our management team. During the first quarter of 2011 in order to benefit Cogility’s business, Acquired Sales issued notes payable and warrants in a private placement offering and loaned most of the proceeds to Cogility.

The transactions required to accomplish the merger are recognized as follows: (1) the recapitalization of Cogility by recognizing the Acquired Sales common shares issued in exchange for the Cogility shares in a manner equivalent to a 1-for-5.3 reverse stock split, (2) the Acquired Sales common shares that remain outstanding, on a 1-for-20 reverse split basis, are recognized as the issuance of common shares by Cogility for the net liabilities of Acquired Sales at their fair values, (3) the issuance of stock options to the members of management of the combined company are recognized as compensation expense based on the fair value of the stock options, and (4) the issuance of notes payable and warrants by the combined company. All references hereafter are to Acquired Sales post-split common shares unless stated otherwise. The specific transactions and their effects on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:
 

 
26

 

Cogility shareholders owning the outstanding 11,530,493 Cogility common shares receive 2,175,564 Acquired Sales common shares, or one Acquired Sales common share for each 5.3 Cogility common shares outstanding. The historical Cogility financial statements are restated on a retroactive basis for all periods presented for the effects of this 5.3-for-1 reverse stock split.

Acquired Sales reverse splits its common shares outstanding on a 1-for-20 basis, which results in the 5,832,482 Acquired Sales pre-split common shares currently outstanding becoming 291,624 Acquired Sales common shares. For financial reporting purposes, the 291,624 common shares are effectively issued in exchange for the assumption of the $55,907 of net liabilities of Acquired Sales and are recorded at the fair value of the net liabilities of $55,907.

Prior to the merger, Cogility had stock options outstanding that permit the holders thereof to purchase 5,925,000 Cogility common shares at prices ranging from $0.001 to $1.40 per share. In the merger transaction, the Cogility option holders exchange these stock options for 1,117,925 Acquired Sales stock options exercisable at prices ranging from $0.001 to $5.00 per share. The exchange of these stock options is considered to be part of the recapitalization of Cogility and is not a modification of the Cogility stock options. There are 3,295,000 of these Cogility stock options that are exchangeable for 621,698 Acquired Sales stock options that vested during 2011 upon Acquired Sales obtaining at least $500,000 of financing and the remaining Cogility stock options vest upon occurrence of the merger with the Acquired Sales subsidiary.

In November 2010, Acquired Sales granted stock options to the members of management and directors that participated in structuring the financing and the merger with Cogility. Those stock options were for the purchase of 12,600,000 pre-split common shares at $0.10 per share, or 630,000 post-split common shares at $2.00 per share. The options vest upon the occurrence of the merger.

Cogility and Acquired Sales have authorized the grant, at the closing of the merger, of stock options for the purchase of 1,500,000 common shares at $5.00 per share. At that date, 750,000 of the stock options will be granted and the remaining 750,000 stock options are to be granted within twelve months of the closing of the merger. The stock options will vest to employees, directors or consultants that remain employed for three years from the date of the merger and the Company has earnings, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, of at least $1,000,000 in each of four consecutive calendar quarters during the first twelve calendar quarters following the closing date of the merger.
 
Cogility and Acquired Sales have authorized the grant to a consultant of stock options for the purchase of 75,000 common shares, with 25,000 options exercisable at $0.001 per share and 50,000 options exercisable at $2.00 per share. These options vest immediately and are exercisable until November 4, 2020.
 
During 2011, Acquired Sales issued $920,000 of 3% promissory notes and warrants to purchase 460,000 post-split shares of common stock at $2.00 per share to accredited investors in a private placement offering. The notes payable and the warrants were issued in exchange for $700,000 in cash, the exchange and settlement of a $200,000 note payable to an entity related to the sole officer of Acquired Sales, which note payable had previously been assumed from Cogility Software Corporation (Cogility), and the transfer and assignment from an unrelated third party of a $20,000 note receivable from Cortez Systems. Of the cash proceeds received in the offering, $400,000 was from related parties. The promissory notes accrue interest at the rate of 3% per annum payable quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning March 31, 2011, mature on December 31, 2014 and are secured by all of the assets of Acquired Sales and Cogility. The warrants are exercisable through March 31, 2016. During 2011, Cogility used approximately $500,000 of the proceeds to reduce accounts payable and accrued expenses and Cogility and Acquired Sales collectively retained approximately $200,000 of the proceeds, which was subsequently used in Cogility’s current operations mainly to pay compensation expense.

In addition to receiving the 3% promissory notes and the warrants described above, at any time during the first 90 days following the date of the completion of the merger, each investor in the private placement offering has the right to make a second loan to Acquired Sales in the same amount and on the same terms as the 3% promissory notes and warrants described above. Under current accounting guidance, none of the consideration received was allocated to the investors’ rights to make additional loans.
 

 
27

 
 
On September 22, 2010, the majority shareholder of Cogility signed an agreement that in the event of the merger, $69,943 of accrued compensation payable would be forgiven. The accompanying pro forma financial statements recognize this transaction as the conversion of the $69,943 of accrued compensation to officers to additional paid-in capital without the issuance of additional common shares.
    
Source of Funds for the Cogility Software Transaction

The source of funds for this acquisition of assets is Acquired Sales’ authorized common stock. Funds to cover professional costs in connection with the transaction were sourced through loans to Acquired Sales which were accompanied by warrants “kickers”.
    
Company Approval of the Cogility Software Transaction, Shareholder Rights and Accounting Treatment

The vote required for approval of this transaction is a majority of the Board voting in favor of the Cogility Software Transaction and majority stockholder approval by written consent.  There are no material differences in the rights of the Company’s shareholders as a result of the Cogility Software Transaction as the nature of the common stock shares will not change. However, there will be stockholder dilution.  

The accounting treatment of the transaction is as follows: As of December 31, 2010, Acquired Sales has been a non-operating public shell corporation with no significant assets. During the first quarter of 2011, Acquired Sales issued notes payable and warrants in a private placement offering and loaned most of the proceeds to Cogility. Under current accounting guidance Acquired Sales is not a business for purposes of determining whether a business combination would occur upon the merger of Cogility into a newly-formed subsidiary of Acquired Sales. The shareholders and management of Cogility will gain operating control of the combined company after the transaction. Accordingly, Cogility is, under current accounting guidance, considered the accounting acquirer and the results of its operations will be the historical results of operations of the combined company, restated for the effects of the restructured capital structure discussed herein.

The federal income tax consequences of the transaction are as follows: The transaction is expected to be booked as a tax free exchange of stock pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 368, resulting in no federal income tax consequences of the transaction.
       
Regulatory Approvals of the Cogility Software Transaction

There are no federal or state regulatory requirements that must be complied with or approvals that must be obtained in connection with the Cogility Software Transaction.

Reports, Opinions and Appraisals Relating to the Cogility Software Transaction

No report, opinion or appraisal materially relating to the Cogility Software Transaction has been received from an outside party.

Past Contacts, Transactions or Negotiations.
 
In late March 2010, Roger S. Greene, a shareholder of Cogility and one of our directors, contacted Gerard M. Jacobs, our Chief Executive Officer, to discuss a possible acquisition of Cogility by Acquired Sales. On April 1, 2010, Mr. Ghourdjian said that he would like Mr. Jacobs to become the President and Chief Executive Officer of Cogility, and to take Cogility public by merging Cogility into Acquired Sales. On April 7-8, April 27-28, and May 25-26, 2010, Mr. Jacobs met variously with Mr. Ghourdjian, other Cogility employees, Mr. Greene, and Vincent J. Mesolella, one of our directors, at Cogility’s office in Alexandria, Virginia, to discuss a possible acquisition of Cogility by Acquired Sales, and for Mr. Jacobs to begin his “due diligence” investigation of Cogility.
 
 
 
28

 

 
During the Summer of 2010, Mr. Jacobs discussed with Mr. Greene, Mr. Mesolella and Mr. Ghourdjian potential terms and conditions of a possible letter of intent pursuant to which Acquired Sales would acquire Cogility, and also discussed certain items of concern relating to Cogility that were discovered during Mr. Jacobs’ “due diligence” investigation of Cogility, including certain line items shown on Cogility’s balance sheet, and certain provisions contained in Cogility’s agreements with a company called Defense & Security Technology Group, LLC (“DSTG”), controlled by Mr. Minh Le. Deborah Sue Ghourdjian, the trustee of the Deborah Sue Ghourdjian Separate Property Trust (“DSGSPT”), Cogility’s majority stockholder, did not participate in these discussions.

On or about August 24, 2010, in anticipation of a possible deal between Cogility and Acquired Sales, Mr. Ghourdjian appointed Mr. Jacobs as Cogility’s President, so that the process of obtaining a security clearance for Mr. Jacobs could begin as soon as possible. On August 25-26, 2010, Mr. Jacobs again met with Mr. Ghourdjian and other Cogility employees at Cogility’s office in Alexandria, Virginia. On August 31, 2010, the board of directors of Acquired Sales had a telephonic meeting.  The independent members of the board of directors of Acquired Sales voted unanimously to authorize Mr. Jacobs to sign a potential agreement with Cogility, including a letter of intent pursuant to which Acquired Sales would acquire Cogility, provided that, as a condition to such signing, Mr. Jacobs and Mr. Mesolella needed to be satisfied that certain line items on Cogility’s balance sheet, and Mr. Le’s involvement with Cogility, were satisfactorily resolved.

On September 22-24, 2010, Mr. Jacobs met with Mr. Mesolella, Mr. Ghourdjian and other Cogility employees at Cogility’s office in Alexandria, Virginia, and with Mr. Le. On October 4-7, 2010, Mr. Jacobs variously met with Mr. Ghourdjian and other Cogility employees, Mr. Greene, and Mr. Le, at or near Cogility’s office in Anaheim, California.

On October 21, 2010, Mr. Jacobs met with Mr. Le at the Hyatt Hotel near O’Hare Airport in Chicago. By November 4, 2010, all of Mr. Jacobs’ concerns regarding certain line items on Cogility’s balance sheet, and concerning Mr. Le’s and DSTG’s involvement with Cogility, were resolved, and an Agreement among the DSGSPT, Mr. Ghourdjian, Cogility, Acquired Sales, and all of the members of the board of directors of Acquired Sales, was fully signed. A Written Consent of Board of Directors of Acquired Sales Corp. in Lieu of Special Meeting was signed by all of the members of the board of directors of Acquired Sales as of November 15, 2010, approving seven resolutions including the acquisition of Cogility and related matters, and a Written Consent of the Stockholders of Acquired Sales Corp. to those seven resolutions was signed by the holders of a majority of the common stock of Acquired Sales as of December 1, 2010.

Description of Business of Acquired Sales

Acquired Sales Corp. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”, etc.) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. In August 2001, we ceased all of our prior operations and remained dormant from then until May 27, 2004 when we began our current development stage activities. We have had no material operations in the past three years.

We propose to seek, investigate and, if warranted, acquire an interest in one or more businesses. As of the date hereof, we have some business opportunities or ventures under contemplation for acquisition or merger. We propose to investigate potential opportunities, particularly focusing upon existing privately held businesses whose owners are willing to consider merging their businesses into our company in order to establish a public trading market for their common stock, and whose managements are willing to operate the acquired businesses as divisions or subsidiaries of our company. The businesses we acquire may or may not need an injection of cash to facilitate their future operations.

We are interested in software companies, manufactured housing communities, and medical supply and diagnostic companies, but we currently do not intend to restrict our search for investment opportunities to any particular industry or geographical location and may, therefore, engage in essentially any business. Our executive officers will review material furnished to them by the proposed merger or acquisition candidates and will ultimately decide if a merger or acquisition is in our best interests and the interests of our shareholders. We intend to source business opportunities through our officers and directors and their contacts.  Those contacts include professional advisors such as attorneys and accountants, securities broker dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, other businesses and others who may present solicited and unsolicited proposals. Management believes that business opportunities and ventures may become available to it due to a number of factors, including, among others: (1) management’s willingness to consider a wide variety of businesses; (2) management’s contacts and acquaintances; and (3) our flexibility with respect to the manner in which we may be able to structure, finance, merge with or acquire any business opportunity.

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of our executive officers and directors. Inasmuch as we will have limited funds available to search for business opportunities and ventures, we will not be able to expend significant funds on a complete and exhaustive investigation of such business or opportunity. We will, however, investigate, to the extent believed reasonable by our management, such potential business opportunities or ventures by conducting a so-called “due diligence investigation”.

In a so-called “due diligence investigation”, we intend to obtain and review materials regarding the business opportunity. Typically such materials will include information regarding a target business’ products, services, contracts, management, ownership, and financial information. In addition, we intend to cause our officers or agents to meet personally with management and key personnel of target businesses, ask questions regarding our prospects, tour facilities, and conduct other reasonable investigation of the target business to the extent of our limited financial resources and management and technical expertise.
 
There is no guarantee that we can obtain the funding needed for our operations, including the funds necessary to search for and investigate acquisition candidates, and to close an acquisition including paying the substantial costs of legal, accounting and other relevant professional services.

We presently have very little cash on hand, approximately $13,000 as of the date of this filing, and our payables are typically greater than our cash on hand. We have no income generating ability and are therefore reliant on raising money from loans or stock sales. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Nevertheless, our financial statements are presented on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern.

Business Acquisition
 
 
 
30

 

 
The structure of our participation in a business opportunity or venture will be situational. We may structure our acquisitions as an asset purchase, merger, or an acquisition of securities. It is likely that the anticipated value of the business and/or assets that we acquire relative to the current value of our securities will result in the issuance of a relatively large number of shares and, as a result, substantial additional dilution to the percentage ownership of our current stockholders. Moreover, our present management and shareholders may not have control of a majority of our voting shares following a business acquisition or other reorganization transaction. It is possible that the shareholders of the acquired entity will gain control of our voting stock and our directors may resign and new directors may be appointed without any vote by the shareholders. Those directors are entitled to replace our officers without stockholder vote.

We are not an "investment adviser" under the Federal Investment Advisers Act of 1940, which classification would involve a number of negative considerations. Accordingly, we will not furnish or distribute advice, counsel, publications, writings, analysis or reports to anyone relating to the purchase or sale of any securities within the language, meaning and intent of Section 2(a)(11) of the Investment Advisers Act (15 U.S.C. 80b2(a)(11)).

We may become involved in a business opportunity through purchasing or exchanging the securities of such business. We do not intend, however, to engage primarily in such activities and we are not registered as an "investment company" under the Federal Investment Company Act of 1940. We believe such registration is not required.

We must conduct our activities so as to avoid becoming inadvertently classified as a transient "investment company" under the Federal Investment Company Act, which classification would affect us adversely in a number of respects. Section 3(a) of the Investment Company Act provides the definition of an "investment company" which excludes an entity which does not engage primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities, or which does not engage in the business of investing, owning, holding or trading "investment securities" (defined as "all securities other than United States government securities or securities of majority-owned subsidiaries",) the value of which exceeds 40% of the value of its total assets (excluding government securities, cash or cash items). We intend to implement our business plan in a manner which will result in the availability of this exemption from the definition of "investment company." We propose to engage solely in seeking an interest in one or more business opportunities or ventures.

Effective January 14, 1981, the SEC adopted Rule 3a-2 which deems that an issuer is not engaged in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities for purposes of Section 3(a)(1) cited above if, during a period of time not exceeding one year, the issuer has a bona fide intent to be engaged primarily, or as soon as reasonably possible (in any event by the termination of a one year period of time), in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and such intent is evidenced by our business activities.

Offices

Our corporate headquarters are located at 31 N. Suffolk Lane, Lake Forest, Illinois 60045. We do not have a dedicated corporate office. There are no agreements or understandings with respect to any office facility subsequent to the completion of an acquisition. We may relocate our corporate headquarters in connection with a change in the management of our company, or in connection with the completion of a merger or acquisition.

Employees
 
We currently have no salaried employees. We expect to address our need for employees in connection with money raising and acquisitions. We expect to use attorneys and accountants as necessary.

Description of Business of Cogility

History

Cogility was incorporated in Delaware in 2002 under the name Ceira Software, Inc. Ceira Software, Inc. changed its name to Cogility Software Corporation in 2003. Soon after its incorporation, a related company called Ceira Technologies Inc., which had the same Chief Executive Officer and the same shareholders as Cogility, contributed certain software and other intellectual property rights to Cogility.

Management

Cogility’s management team is led by Matthew Ghourdjian, its founder and Chief Executive Officer. Matthew Ghourdjian has 33 years of experience in the technology industry. Matthew Ghourdjian was a founder of CoderCard, Digital Convergence, Ceira Technologies Inc., and Cogility. Matt is a former partner at KPMG Consulting and Arthur Andersen.

Offices and Employees

Cogility company currently has offices in San Jose, California, in Anaheim, California, and in Alexandria, Virginia. Cogility has a total of 13 full-time and 6 part-time employees, including 11 software engineers. None of these employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that relations with our employees are good.

Software Technology Products

(1) Cogility Studio™

Cogility Studio™ is Cogility's flagship product. Cogility Studio™ is an object-oriented, model driven, integrated development environment for creating complex, service oriented and event-driven composite applications (applications that include a high degree of integration with existing or external applications) that solve difficult problems. Cogility Studio ™ is 100% standards based, deploying on any database or application server. Cogility Studio ™ has been deployed in high volume, mission-critical applications since 2003.

Using Cogility Studio™, organizations can more easily expand enterprise applications to leverage existing information and business logic that is currently locked within legacy applications. IT teams can deliver robust and scalable business solutions more quickly, giving an organization the foundation it needs to operate efficiently and competitively over time.

Cogility Studio™ allows the creation of anything from simple composite applications to unprecedented systems while keeping the focus of all stakeholders on the business/mission objectives. The revolutionary Dynamic Model Driven Architecture™  technology allows continuous updates and maintenance from the system model while reducing IT administration and management costs. The system model allows technical and non-technical stakeholders to collaborate on system definition and logic

Cogility Studio™ is three tightly integrated applications: Cogility Modeler, Cogility Manager and Cogility Insight. Cogility Modeler’s standards based UML modeling environment enables one to author a business process in an easy to use visual programming environment. One can deploy that model as an application on any J2EE application server by “pushing” it into the Cogility Manager run-time environment and managing and analyzing that running application using Cogility Insight.

(a) Cogility Modeler

Cogility Modeler is an integrated development environment (IDE) for the collaborative authoring of an enterprise system model. Like an IDE for developing code and code objects, it provides a single tool for working with many types of system artifacts. Unlike a typical IDE concerned only with individual entities, Cogility Modeler provides visibility over an entire system and semantic consistency checking between artifacts of a system. That system may include any or all business processes that span the enterprise, the messages between components of that system, and the data and operations of that system. All of these are described as artifacts of an enterprise model created in Cogility Modeler. The model may be developed collaboratively with contributions from people at both the high-level, conceptual end and the low-level, implementation end. The model becomes fully executable when deployed as a J2EE application.
 

 
32

 
 
 
An enterprise model consists of artifacts grouped in the following areas:

·  
Information Modeling - The artifacts of the information model describe the business objects of the enterprise. A customer, for example, is represented as a class artifact with such attributes as first name, last name, customer ID, address and so forth.
·  
Message modeling - The message model is concerned with the communication between the application and the outside world (other applications). Message artifacts represent JMS messages, which are connected to conversion artifacts that isolate the model from the physical communication and enforce the abstractions. This allows the business logic to deal with “events” that are separate from the technology concerns.
·  
Behavior modeling – Objects in the Cogility system have behavior and respond to events (external and internal). This allows the system to be dynamic, and to localize changes to the part of the model directly affected by a change. The behavior modeling also includes the inclusion of human users into the process logic of the system for consultation or information presentation purposes. The synergy of automation and human control is a key enabler of complex event driven process based systems.
·  
Transformation modeling - At the heart of an integration model, transformation objects describe the way data from an application gets mapped to another application. Transformation maps, classifier maps and feature maps are all examples of transformation artifacts defined by the CWMM standard and implemented in the Cogility transformation engine. Cogility is unique in allowing transformations to be embedded in a process allowing automation or manual interaction as part of the transformation process or to control the timing of the transformation.
·  
Web service modeling - Web service modeling artifacts provide for communication between the model's J2EE application and other systems and applications. Both SOAP and HTTP web services are support and can be supported simultaneously for the same business logic. Just like message modeling, web service modeling can generate events that are fed to the behavior model unifying the treatment of external communications.

(b) Cogility Manager

Cogility Manager is the run-time environment in which the deployed composite application runs. It enables a model created in Cogility Modeler to run as a composite application on a specific application server with a specific database for the run-time repository.

Cogility Manager includes the libraries and routines that run the composite application on a specific J2EE application server, which provides system security and enables system messaging and database transactions.

The Cogility Manager metadata layer is running on the J2EE application server machine and provides the process, business logic, and integration support expected by the generated model-driven application
 

 
33

 
 
 
The model-driven business logic and data repository layer is the Java application generated from the project model.

(c)  Cogility Insight

Cogility Insight is the model execution visualization environment for review and analysis of system performance. It permits users to immediately execute and visualize deployed models without the need for custom user-interface programming. This saves significant time and assures compatibility with running processes.
 
Cogility Insight's features include:

·  
An authentication layer that restricts access to critical information based on user account and password;
·  
Access to business data through the web Services layer, supporting easy access from across and outside a user's enterprise with standard security features that are provided through web server technology;
·  
Access to business web service interfaces permitting service invocation for testing purposes;
·  
Auditing of executing as well completed processes, with full access to runtime state data;
·  
Display of accumulated usage and trend analysis of the relevant key performance indicators (KPI’s) defined by the user in the Cogility system model;
·  
Automatic updating as the model is updated and redeployed without the need for additional manual steps;
·  
Access to configuration management version numbers for all deployed artifacts, including business process definitions, encapsulated business logic, business web services, queries, to facilitate configuration identification throughout the system development and maintenance life cycle.

Cogility Insight is a web application that runs on your J2EE application server. As such, Cogility Studio must be deployed to that application server and the server must be running in order to run Cogility Insight.

(2) Dynamic Template Event Processing Language

Cogility's Dynamic Template Event Processing Language (TEPL) allows projects to continuously monitor large data sets and direct analyst attention. The system is designed to find activity that might be missed by manual inspection. By grouping relevant information together around detected pattern matches the system can optimize analyst time, and reduce the chance of missed cues. Analysts are provided a wealth of information about each hit including all the information matching templates, the information surrounding the match that may have relevance, and tools to expand or narrow the focus of the investigation from the match. Analysts can further register interest in activities that may support their role without those matches implying elevation of the event to other analysts. This supports analysts that are performing special analysis across areas of responsibility, or across functional boundaries.

The Cogility TEPL provides a visual language for defining templates that match against streams of events. The system involves separating events into streams based on criteria defined by the project, and then matching templates to those streams. This allows great flexibility in detecting meaningful activity within a large set of data or observations.
 

 
34

 
 
The full range of Cogility Studio features is available to collect and aggregate the data to be processed. It is presented to the TEPL runtime by the project model. Once TEPL is presented with an event it goes through grouping then template matching, then analysis.

Event grouping allows template matching on pre-filtered content. This supports scalability and reduces clutter. Criteria are project specific and can include geospatial boxing, use of cultural or linkage data held by the project, or other criteria applicable to the data set.

Once events are grouped templates are matched against the group to lay the groundwork for analysis. Templates are project specific and can be shared between projects. Templates allow matching of events both in terms of temporal ranking, geospatial proximity, and project specific criteria applicable to the template. The full range of Cogility Studio capabilities can support template matching and is our Dynamic Matching Logic.

Once templates have been matched to groups the results are ranked and tested against analyst thresholds to allow notifications, warnings, and updates to all levels of authority.

In addition to basic matching of events to template steps based on type categorizations the TEPL language provides for open ended matching logic using OCL scripting. This feature allows any criteria or related data item to be tested in the matching process. This dynamic logic allows such things as matching a person based on known associates, known travel patterns, or doing a database lookup to check status in an external system. This also provides an opportunity to have the matching logic consider several events or related events as part of the matching criteria constituting support for complex event processing as tests can require temporal, geospatial, or other connections between events to cause a match.

Cogility’s model driven, visual approach allows the solution to be expressed closer to the problem domain. Whereas code based solutions do nothing more than mechanical syntax checks at design time, Cogility’s holistic model additionally allows more meaningful semantic checks to be performed at design time. This increases confidence in the solution and reduces the testing cycle. Domain analysts are able to participate more directly in the development process and the development teams are smaller. The traditional barriers between domain analysts and coders are removed. Solutions are easier to create but more importantly, easier to evolve and maintain over time.

(3) Cogility Intel Framework

The Intel Framework provides integration with the Cogility Template Event Processing Language to perform pattern-based searches of collected information, collection guidance, and differentiation of suspect activity patterns. The Intel Framework is built on top of Cogility Studio and relies on that product for integration with existing and legacy systems and information sources, and for workflow features.

The Cogility Intel framework provides a pre-built set of tools for jump-starting intelligence or investigative projects. The framework provides the following key components:

(a) Case File Management.  The central component of the Cogility Intel Framework is case file management. Case files can be created and formed manually by analysts to track information and evidence related to an incident, a suspect, or a combination of events and targets. Case files can also be created automatically with the use of the Cogility Template Event Processing Language component.

(b) Web User Interface.  The Intel Framework is server based and includes a web user interface for accessing and directing component activity. The web user interface is analyst centric focusing on the workflow, tasks, and activities analysts engage in during investigations.

(c) Evidence Accrual.  There is a large difference between information and evidence, limits on what collection methods can be used, and evidence can come in physical form needing identification and tracking. The Intel Framework provides tracking, identification, and support for processes related to Evidence Accrual.
 

 
35

 
 
(d) Geospatial-Temporal Mapping.  Information within the Intel Framework is tracked in Geospatial and Temporal dimensions. The information and the connections between it can be displayed geospatial on a map, temporally on a time line, and in several forms to highlight linkages and clustering.

(e) Link Discovery, Mapping, and Evaluation. A central part of tracking an investigation is working with links between people, suspects, witnesses, and victims. The Intel Framework tracks linkages, types of links, information substantiating links, and supports entity extraction (using an external tool).

(f) Human-in-the-loop Tasking and Collaboration.  The Intel Framework includes a component for human in the loop tasking and collaboration. This component allows workflow within the organization to be automated and support the investigation process. The collaboration can reach outside the organization to experts and other supporting organizations that are routinely involved in support activities (through the web user interface, email, SMS, and other methods), or to those occasionally involved (through email and similar contact methods).

Technology Differentiators

The Cogility solution treats process execution, web service orchestration and data synchronization simultaneously. Cogility’s pre-architected data environment supports horizontal process and data integration, cuts across all databases, and leverages existing “standards compliant” J2EE application server technologies. Cogility is cost effective, easy to support and can scale to support even the largest and most complex requirements. Cogility Studio allows one to create, modify and maintain very complex systems with much lower resource commitments.

We believe that Cogility's software technology products can be differentiated from our principal competitors' products such as Rational Rose and NetBeans for the following reasons:

(1)  Direct Execution. What makes Cogility Studio™ significantly different than other visual programming environments is that the models created by Cogility directly execute as specified. In other words, Cogility’s high-level UML based models are deployed to an executable platform with a single button “push” and are directly executed without further coding or translation. During deployment, Cogility Modeler creates the Java beans, deployment descriptors, routines and other Java run-time utilities. A user does not have to write any Java code to complete the deployment because deploying a model not only creates the Java application, but the run-time environment that manages interactions between the composite application, the specific application server and the database for the run-time repository. Pushing the model creates the tables on the run-time repository for the model objects (such as the M2E conversions, events, web services, and so on), and for the business objects that are created at run-time (such as Customers, Addresses and Products); it also creates the Java beans, deployment descriptors, routines and libraries that manage the communication between the composite application, the J2EE application server and the run-time repository. Without service interruption, modified or new modeling artifacts (objects) are “re-pushed” to execution creating a holistic lifecycle that reduces system development, maintenance and enhancement costs by 50% to 70% over the life of the application.

(2) Elimination of Technical Barriers

Cogility’s innovative approach allows solutions to be rapidly prototyped using visual modeling techniques to create solutions that are extremely change-tolerant and highly responsive to the needs of the organization. Intense research and development efforts have gone into creating an environment that eliminates the technical barriers to entry for creating complete high performing solutions, thus ensuring that business needs -- not the complexities of the technical platform -- define the complexity of the solution.

Cogility Studio changes the software development paradigm by allowing programmers to directly encode the business user’s requirements into a model, so work can begin with minimal requirements. Cogility’s powerful and elegant multi-user modeling and deployment environment supports rapid and continuous changes, so development can be highly iterative since changes and modifications are made in the model and “pushed” to execution with almost no cost penalty.
 

 
36

 
 
In addition, Cogility provides frameworks aimed at several verticals to further reduce the development effort for new projects. These frameworks provide an integrated web user interface, basic abstractions for the vertical, and a set of standard processes that can be a starting point for a project while leveraging past project experience. All frameworks are tightly integrated into Cogility’s Modeler environment providing vertical specific consistency checks, visual treatment of key abstractions, and tailored modeling presentation for the vertical’s domain concepts.

(3)  Integration Infrastructure. A suite of integration features such as automatic database persistence, web service and messaging connectivity, XML document handling, and background task management are built into the system and exposed at the modeling layer so low level coding isn’t required.

(4)  Composite Application.  Cogility’s long running visually modeled processes aren’t used just to create automatic processes by stringing a series of web services together. They are used to create arbitrary combinations of automated and human assisted processes. The domain specific application that is being supported by these processes is itself in the model creating a seamless composite application that is easy to extend. A Composite application goes beyond simple integration of data, by typically subsuming the operations and interfaces of other applications by providing a unified set of functions, often removing the need to directly access the integrated applications for typical tasks. For example in a telco environment a composite application might integrate the billing, order entry, and workforce management functions into one integrated customer care and self service web interface. This would require that the new application not just exchange data with the existing systems, but add new functions such as the custom self service portal, and often means having integrated interfaces for call center agents that would in the past be accessing each system separately.

(5) Rapid Prototyping.  The combination of model driven development along with the fact that the entire application (the domain specific logic as well as the integration aspects) lives in the same model, allows for rapid prototyping.

(6) Parallel Execution.  The Cogility approach leverages concurrency in processes and can utilize multiple processors or multiple servers to execute the concurrency modeled into the system. Concurrency is addressed using transactional programming, proven over the last 30 years, rather than difficult to use low-level techniques like threads, locks, and semaphores required by code based solutions to utilize multi-core systems.

(7) Development Methodology.  An iterative development process is a natural complement to the rapid model driven prototyping approach. Thin, end-to-end solutions are quickly created to allow the end user, early visibility into the system. This allows the system to be modified and corrected early on and reduces later more costly rewrites. Cogility typically delivers a project or the first phase of a longer project within 2-4 months of the project start.

(8)  Operates on Standards Based Infrastructure.  Rather than creating esoteric systems, Cogility’s innovative model driven approach is layered on top of existing technologies, thereby reducing personnel training time and risk of maintaining the running system. Cogility’s dependencies are limited to Java, J2EE compliant application servers and JDBC compliant relational databases.

(9) Adaptability. Cogility’s built-in artifacts provide a powerful set of capabilities that can be adapted to a wide range of problem types. This flexibility, coupled with the model driven approach, allows domain specific solutions to be created quickly. Cogility has created solutions for the finance, telecommunication and health industries. More recently, the same techniques have been applied to defense industry problems like Time Sensitive Effect Operations and Counter IED projects.
 

 
37

 

(10) Rapid Deployment.  Once the design time modeling activities are completed, the model can be deployed to the execution platform with a single button push. Re-push of modified models can take as little as 15 seconds and typically takes no more than 30 to 60 seconds, depending on the number of changes. Cogility has developed processes to allow hot deployment of models, eliminating the need to stop the running application while a new version of the application is being deployed.

(11)  Runtime Scalability.  Cogility applications run inside J2EE application servers but they are meta-data based, instead of code based. This allows the application server to be a simple caching, computing device and all the data and application state changes are preserved in the database. A theoretically unlimited number of app-servers can be pooled together to increase processing throughput without requiring special design on the modelers’ part. The other part of the running applications is standard relational databases. These can also be maintained and scaled using traditional techniques.

(12) Integration Infrastructure.  A suite of integration features such as automatic database persistence, web service and messaging connectivity, XML document handling, and background task management are built into the system and exposed at the modeling layer so low level coding is not required.

Patents Pending

Cogility's software technology is in a nearly continuous process of improvement, and is currently the subject of two pending applications for U.S. patents.

Licensing

Cogility typically licenses its software technology for specific customer projects. Depending upon the customer's needs, Cogility currently offers production and deployment server appliances, storage, workstation software, and other products, at list prices ranging between $9,950 for a Cogility Event Matching Template Editor, up to $2,195,000 for a Cogility Enterprise-T Production Server Appliance and Storage with Database Clustering.

Consulting Support

In addition to Cogility’s industry leading tool set, their thought leadership in key projects and problem approaches has supported clients with critical consulting support on difficult problems.

On some projects Cogility has chosen to enter into contracting arrangements with larger consulting and technology organizations that already have prime contracts with certain agencies within the U.S. defense and intelligence communities, such as the U.S. Army Research Laboratories and the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory. These relationships allow Cogility to meet customer needs while retaining a focus on solid proven products and frameworks that provide leverage, and allow addressing unprecedented systems needs.
 
Benefits to Customers

We believe that Cogility's ground-breaking approach to composite application development enables its clients to make informed decisions about the structure and strategy of their enterprise-wide application planning, and allows them to quickly realize system-wide, cross-organizational benefits, including:

·  
Optimization of existing IT investments
·  
Reduced IT costs and complexity
·  
Faster development schedules
·  
Improved enterprise-wide data management and data integration

 
 
38

 

·  
Definition and adherence to sound business practices

Organizations can create complex applications without the need for specialized Java code to specify custom business logic. This allows project teams to focus more fully on important business issues. Cogility's model-based approach defines complex business logic within the model, which then executes within any scalable, commercially available and vendor independent J2EE Application Server environment.

Sales and  Marketing

Cogility markets its products and services primarily through direct marketing, and through Cogility's website. To date Cogility has lacked the financial resources to engage in any advertising or promotional campaigns.

On some projects Cogility has chosen to partner with larger consulting and technology organizations that already have contracts with certain agencies within the U.S. defense and intelligence communities.

Cogility is also working with two minority-controlled businesses to market advanced software products both to the U.S. defense and intelligence communities, and to state, county and local governments:

·  
Cogility has entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement and related agreements with privately owned and controlled Defense & Security Technology Group, LLC, South Riding, Virginia ("DSTG"). DSTG is pursuing a number of potential consulting and software technology projects with the U.S. defense and intelligence communities that may result in the deployment of Cogility software technology. Cogility holds options to purchase membership interests in DSTG; those options are subject to the prior fulfillment of certain contingencies.
·  
Cogility has entered into an Agreement with privately controlled Cortez Systems, Chino Hills, California. Cortez Systems is developing and marketing certain technological solutions developed by Cogility to municipal, county, and state government agencies, initially within California. Cogility owns 49% of the shares of common stock of Cortez Systems, and holds an option to purchase the other 51% of the shares of common stock of Cortez Systems.

Clients

Cogility sells its products both to governmental and non-governmental clients.

On the governmental side, Cogility's primary sales efforts have been directed toward the federal government's defense and intelligence communities. Cogility's Dynamic Template Event Processing Language (TEPL) is helping Department of Defense clients to continuously monitor large data sets from disparate systems while providing the warfighter and intelligence analyst with information organized in such a manner as to help them understand the adversaries' actions and intent.

During the past two years -- without any advertising or promotional campaigns -- Cogility has gained significant traction within the U.S. defense and intelligence communities, as evidenced by its most recent contract with the Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO), which leads U.S. Department of Defense actions to rapidly provide Counter Improvised Explosive Device capabilities to U.S. troops.

On the private sector side, Cogility's clients include corporations involved in finance, healthcare and telecommunications such as CashCall, Apria Healthcare, and Australian satellite based subscription television SelecTV.

Competition

Cogility faces intense competition in the sale of software technology to the U.S. defense and intelligence communities. This competition is expected to continue to intensify in the future as a result of industry consolidation and the slowdown or reduction in federal spending for defense and intelligence.
 

 
39

 
 
Cogility competes with a large group of companies that sell software to the U.S. defense and intelligence communities, many of which companies have longer operating histories, greater name recognition and have greater financial, technical, sales, and marketing resources than we have. These competitors include but are not limited to Oracle, IBM, Microsoft, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, SAIC, and The Boeing Company.

Cogility's ability to compete depends upon several factors, including the following: (1) the capabilities of Cogility's software technology to perform Complex Event Processing easier, faster, more comprehensively, in real time, more reliably, and at a lower cost than its competitors' products; (2) Cogility's ability to educate, persuade and verify such capabilities to skeptical federal decision-makers; (3) Cogility's ability to sell into the federal space, which includes issues such as: security clearances; sales and marketing; bidding processes; contract vehicles; pricing of products, associated training, services, support and maintenance; availability and timing of funding; implementation timetables; resistance from entrenched competitors; and other considerations. Additional competitive factors include, but are not limited to, Cogility's reputation, knowledge of the federal defense and intelligence communities, and responsiveness to clients.

Dependence on one or a few major customers
 
Cogility previously relied on two major government contracts with the United States Department of Defense, both of which ended December 31, 2010.  The two government contracts accounted for 86.0% of total revenue. Of the remaining 14.0% of revenue, 12.0% was made to one commercial customer, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 with one government contract with two phases accounted for 96.0% of total revenue. In the future Cogility may again become reliant on one or a few major customers.
 
Patents, trademarks, licenses, etc.

We rely on a combination of intellectual property laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to protect our proprietary technology. We are in the process of patenting our software and, to that end, have filed a U.S. patent application. We also have other intellectual property rights. Although we rigorously protect our proprietary technology, any significant impairment of, or third-party claim against, our intellectual property rights could harm our business or our ability to compete.

Need for and status of any government approval of principal products or services

Not-applicable.

Effect of existing or probable governmental regulations on business
 
Cogility’s businesses may be affected by numerous laws and regulations relating to the award, administration and performance of U.S. defense and intelligence community contracts. The U.S. Government generally has the ability to terminate defense related contracts, in whole or in part, without prior notice, for convenience or for default based on performance. It also controls security clearances which, in some cases, could be necessary for performance under contracts. Where security clearances are not granted to key employees, our ability to perform under contracts and, therefore, our business may suffer.  In addition, the defense industry is a highly regulated environment and is subject to audit and review by the U.S. Government and its agencies. These agencies are entitled to review Cogility’s performance under its contracts, its cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards, as well as the adequacy of, and its compliance with, its internal control systems and policies, including accounting, billing and control systems. If an audit uncovers improper or illegal activities, Cogility may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, which may include termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspension, or prohibition from doing business with the U.S. Government. Whether or not illegal activities are alleged, the U.S. Government also has the ability to decrease or withhold certain payments when it deems systems subject to its review to be inadequate.
 
R&D expenditures

Cogility’s research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel responsible for the research and development of new and existing products and services. Cogility spent $66,000 on research and development efforts over the past two years. Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred.

Costs and effects of compliance with environmental laws

Not-applicable.

Results of Operations

For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 compared with Period Ended December 31, 2009

           During the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we had no revenue, had net losses of $326,259, $26,019 and $12,336, respectively, and used $14,806, $14,058 and $10,658, respectively, of cash in our operating activities. At December 31, 2010, our current liabilities included accounts payable of $17,055 and notes payable to related parties in the amount of $44,000. At December 31, 2010, we had $5,148 in cash and a working capital deficit of $55,907. Through December 31, 2010, the loans to us from persons affiliated with Gerard M. Jacobs, our chief executive officer, have provided the needed capital to meet our operations to date. For years, we have existed as a public shell searching for assets or business(es) to acquire. Costs and expenses related to legal, accounting, merchant banking, management, employees, and office space has been either extremely low or non-existent during this public shell period. While we currently remain a public shell, our increased operating expenses in the second half of the 2010 was a result of increased legal, accounting, audit, travel and interests fees resulting from negotiations and agreements with Cogility. Since entering into a letter of intent with Cogility to move toward acquiring them, we have worked to create a number of legal and audited and unaudited accounting documents for both internal and transactional use as well as for use in public disclosure. The costs are reflected in our financial statements. As we lack the assets and revenues necessary to produce cash to meet these expenses, we have been forced to borrow these funds.

           As discussed we intend to complete a merger with Cogility. In addition to Cogility, we intend to evaluate, structure and potentially complete other mergers with, or acquisition of, other prospects consisting of private companies, partnerships or sole proprietorships. We may seek to acquire a controlling or minority interest in such entities in contemplation of later completing an acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

           As of December 31, 2010, we had $5,148 in cash on hand, compared to no cash on hand at December 31, 2009. In the past we have been totally reliant on management and our affiliates to fund our operations via loans made to us. For instance, to sustain the company, affiliated parties loaned the company $44,000 since 2009. As described below, we have borrowed an additional $700,000. However, we in turn loaned the majority of those funds, $600,000, to Cogility. We have also needed to deploy cash to meet the increased expenses described above to meet legal, accounting and other costs in connection with the proposed Cogility transaction.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to meet our ongoing financial requirements is dependent on management being able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, the realization of which is not assured. In addition, we are dependent on management being willing to continue to serve without monetary remunerations.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Cogility.
 
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

As used in this Schedule 14C, references to the “Company,” “Cogility,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Cogility Software Corporation, unless the context otherwise indicates.

At March 31, 2011 our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $1,340,507 and Cogility had a capital deficiency of $2,047,076; accordingly, Cogility was insolvent at March 31, 2011. The Company completed its last government contractual arrangement in September of 2010 and since that time has not generated any significant new revenue. Cogility’s lack of significant revenue subsequent to September 30, 2010 has caused it to continue to be insolvent. Cogility currently has operating liabilities that it cannot pay and without an additional infusion of cash it is unlikely that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company received $600,000 in loans from Acquired Sales Corp., through a private placement.  Subsequent to March 31, 2011 the Company issued notes payable in the amounts of $225,000 to an individual, an additional $25,000 to Acquired Sales Corp. and $25,000 to a lending company, which has  funded operations through the date of this filing. The Acquired Sales Corp. private placement is discussed elsewhere in this report, including the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” include herein. Without additional capital or the generation of profits through sales, there can be no assurance whatsoever that Cogility will be able to overcome its current financial problems, and bankruptcy is a distinct possibility.

Overview
 
Cogility Software Corporation is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Cogility has developed software technology that is solving mission-critical problems facing the US defense and intelligence communities and many corporations today. Our software technology allows our customers to quickly access and analyze the avalanche of data being generated by disparate sources and stored in many different databases. Cogility provides Model Driven Complex Event Processing software technology for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations with complex information management requirements.  Cogility addresses the pressing organizational need for speed, agility and competitive differentiation. Cogility's website can be reviewed at www.cogility.com.

Cogility’s Software Technology is so uniquely capable, that during the past two years -- without any advertising or promotional campaigns -- Cogility has gained significant traction within the U.S. defense and intelligence communities, as evidenced by its most recent contract with the Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO), which leads U.S. Department of Defense actions to rapidly provide Counter Improvised Explosive Device capabilities to U.S. troops.

However, the Company has continued to realize operating losses and negative working capital because of its inability to generate revenue through closing new contracts in the fourth quarter 2010 and into the first months of 2011.  Several factors have restricted the Company’s ability to generate new revenue.
 
Because of the complex and sophisticated nature of Cogility’s applications, the Company has found that there is a significant lead time in the sales cycle because the Cogility product requires substantial education of, and conceptual buy-in from a potential customer’s executive operations and information technology professionals.  This long sales cycle adversely affected Cogility during the latter part of 2010 and into the first quarter of 2011, in regards to closing sales to the government and commercial markets.
 
Potential customers frequently require us to build demonstration systems to assist the potential customers' executive, operations and information technology professionals in understanding how Cogility's software might change their business processes and how the software might integrate with their existing systems. These factors add significant costs and time to complete a potential sale.  During the fourth quarter 2010 and into the first quarter of 2011, we were required to build multiple demonstration systems for potential customers.

An additional factor that has adversely affected the Company marketing to the governmental sector has been the fact that the federal government had taken an extended period of time to pass a budget for its fiscal year. Instead, the government had relied on continuing resolutions to fund the on-going activities of the federal government and this makes it difficult for potential buyers of our product to know when or how much funding they will ultimately receive in the future. During the year ended 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, this had a materially adverse effect on business, as buyers were unsure of what funds would be available, the timing of funds, and what projects would be funded.

Cogility is new to the government sector and we do not yet have the experience or qualifications to act as a prime contractor in the federal contracting arena, and as a result, we must expend considerable time and effort trying to find organizations or companies that will act as the prime contractor or partner on Cogility’s projects. The prime contractor collects and distributes funding and communicates with the end user.   This adds risk and uncertainty, as we lose control over the projects and do not typically have direct communication with the customer.  This inability to act as the prime contractor also can delay the closing of potential contracts and further lengthen the sales cycle.

All of the above factors have materially affected Cogility’s business in the latter part of 2010 and beginning of 2011. Our lack of any substantial revenue in the fourth quarter 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 has caused the Company to continue to be insolvent. We currently have operating liabilities that we cannot pay and without an additional infusion of cash it is unlikely that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance whatsoever that the Company will be able to overcome its current financial problems and bankruptcy is a distinct possibility unless additional capital is raised promptly.

In addition to our focus on the government sector, we continue to market our product to the commercial sector.  We believe that some of our commercial projects will result in the creation of software work product that can be re-sold multiple times within the same industries. We are currently exploring commercial projects in the insurance, banking, and legal industries that we believe may have such re-sale potential.

On November 4, 2010 management signed a letter of intent to merge Cogility into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquired Sales Corp. on terms and conditions described in the letter of intent.  In conjunction with this merger the Company has raised $820,000 of capital through a series of Promissory Notes payable with Acquired Sales Corp. See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below for further discussion. There can be no assurance whatsoever that the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital through the private placement to sustain operations.

At March 31, 2011 the Company had cash of $34,526 and $129,736 of accounts receivable.  Total current assets at March 31, 2011 were $173,064 an amount far below what is necessary to fund operations and fulfill corporate obligations.  Current liabilities at March 31, 2011 included $326,531 of accounts payable; $176,813 of accrued liabilities; $450,376 of notes payable; $73,558 of notes payable to related parties and $358,496 of accrued employee compensation.
 
Included in long-term debt are amounts borrowed of $820,000 from Acquired Sales Corp.  The notes bear interest at 5% per annum, payable quarterly and are due December 31, 2014 (See following paragraph). Without an immediate additional capital infusion the Company is in danger of becoming insolvent and filing for bankruptcy.
On January 31, 2011, Cogility and Acquired Sales Corp. agreed upon a financing strategy to provide Cogility with the capital infusion needed to continue operations.  Acquired Sales Corp. would conduct a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to accredited investors of up to $2,000,000 of Bridge Offering units (individually a “Bridge Unit”). Each Bridge Unit consists of $1 principal amount of a Promissory Note bearing interest at 3% per annum and due December 31, 2014 (individually a “Bridge Note”, and collectively the “Bridge Notes”) and warrants to purchase 10 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (which shall convert into warrants to purchase 0.5 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $2.00 per share after the completion of the planned 1-for-20 reverse split of Acquired Sales Corp.’s common stock), with an alternate cashless exercise provision (“Warrants”). In addition, at any time within the first 90 calendar days following the date of the completion of the Merger with Cogility, if any such Merger occurs, the investors, in their sole discretion, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make a second loan investment in Bridge Units, provided that such second investment in Bridge Units shall be in the same amount and on the same terms, conditions and documentation described above as such investor’s initial investment in Bridge Units.  Investments in the Private Placement shall be in the form of cash, excepting only that an entity related to an officer of the Company (“RJFT”) shall be permitted to invest in the Bridge Units by assigning to Acquired Sales Corp. a $200,000 note payable from Cogility to RJFT (“the RJFT $200,000 Note”) instead of by paying cash, and an unrelated individual shall be permitted to invest in the Bridge Units by assigning to Acquired Sales Corp. his $20,000 loan to Cortez Systems, a company 49% owned by Cogility, instead of by paying cash. The Bridge Notes are jointly secured by a first lien security interest in all of the assets of Cogility.

 
44

 

 
The financing strategy contemplated that a significant portion of the cash proceeds of the Private Placement will be loaned by Acquired Sales Corp. to Cogility, evidenced by a series of Promissory Notes bearing interest at 5% per annum and due December 31, 2014 (collectively the “Cogility Notes”). The Cogility Notes are jointly secured by a first lien security interest in all of the assets of Cogility.

As of March 31, 2011, the aggregate investment in the Private Placement is $920,000 evidenced by an aggregate of $920,000 of Bridge Notes and Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,200,000 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (which shall convert into Warrants to purchase 460,000 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $2.00 per share after the completion of the planned 1-for-20 reverse split of Acquired Sales Corp. common stock), and of that amount an aggregate of $820,000 (including the $200,000 evidenced by the RJFT $200,000 Note) has been loaned by Acquired Sales Corp. to Cogility, and a note receivable of $20,000 from Cortez Systems was assigned to Cogility.

Despite these borrowings from Acquired Sales Corp, the Company still has not solved its lack of liquidity and capital resources.  The Company has yet to close any significant contracts for Cogility’s software, and as such the Company has utilized all of the proceeds to fund operations for the first quarter of 2011 and into the second quarter of 2011. In addition, subsequent to March 31, 2011 the Company issued notes payable in the amounts of $225,000 to an individual, an additional $25,000 to Acquired Sales Corp. and $25,000 to a lending company, which has funded operations through the date of this filing There can be no assurance whatsoever that Cogility will be able to permanently overcome its financial problems. Unless and until Cogility is able to permanently overcome its financial problems, Cogility will remain at risk of going bankrupt.

Comparison of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010

The Company incurred a net loss of $1,189,932 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 mainly due to the lack of revenues generated for the period.  The nature of the Company’s operations makes it difficult to scale back costs in periods of reduced revenue. The Company’s labor force is our largest cost, the employees are specifically trained and extremely difficult to replace.   At March 31, 2011, the Company had current liabilities in excess of current assets of $1,340,507, an accumulated deficit of $6,025,622 and a shareholders’ deficit of $2,047,076

The Company utilized cash from operations of $827,225 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to utilizing cash from operations of $345,340 during the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was primarily due to a loss from operations due to the lack of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and reduction of accounts payable of $220,228.   This is compared to the utilization of cash from operation of $345,340 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The Company utilized cash for investing activities of $17,781 for the purchases of $6,612 of property and equipment, and $11,169 of advances on related party notes receivable. This is compared to $82,667 of cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The Company borrowed $600,000 from related parties during the three months ended March 31, 2011 for net cash provided by financing activities of $600,000. This as compared to $452,500 of cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, cash decreased by $245,006 leaving the Company with $34,526 in cash at March 31, 2011. This is compared to an $880,508 decrease in cash during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The Company incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $1,189,932 as compared to a net loss of $581,231 for that same period ended March 31, 2010. There can be no assurance whatsoever that the Company will generate income in the future. While the Company is currently pursuing new contracts from both the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and from commercial customers, there can be no assurance whatsoever that such effort will be successful or will result in revenues to Cogility on any particular timetable or in any particular amounts. The Company has a history of losses as evidenced by the accumulated deficit at March 31, 2011 of $6,025,622.

Comparison of December 31, 2010 and 2009

The Company incurred a net loss of $200,724 for the year ended December 31, 2010 mainly due to the lack of revenues generated for the fourth quarter 2010. The nature of the Company’s operations makes it difficult to scale back costs in periods of reduced revenue. The Company’s labor force is our largest cost, the employees are specifically trained and extremely difficult to replace.   At December 31, 2010, the Company had current liabilities in excess of current assets of $1,310,416, an accumulated deficit of $4,835,690 and a shareholders’ deficit of $1,424,042. At December 31, 2009, the Company had current liabilities in excess of current assets of $1,852,663, an accumulated deficit of $4,634,966 and a shareholders’ deficit of $1,766,701.

The Company utilized cash from operations of $181,118 during the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to generating cash from operations of $547,971 during the year ended December 31, 2009. This was primarily due to the recognition of billings in excess of costs on contracts accounted for under the completed contract method that were in process at December 31, 2009 and completed during the year ended December 31, 2010.  During the year ended December 31, 2010 the Company completed two government contracts which accounted for 86.0% of total revenue. Of the remaining 14.0% of revenue, 12.0% was made to one commercial customer. The change in cash from operations from billings in excess of cost was offset partially by the collection of accounts receivable on those contracts as well as the Company accruing significant employee costs and incurring share based compensation expense from option grants during 2010.

The Company utilized cash for investing activities of $121,913 for the purchases of $42,855 of  property and equipment, $78,532 of  advances or loans to certain key employees and $526 on an deposits and other assets.  This is compared to $138,108 of cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009

The Company borrowed $427,000 from related and unrelated parties during the year ended December 31, 2010 and utilized cash of $725,445 to repay notes payable to related and unrelated parties for net cash used in financing activities of $298,445 for the year ended December 31, 2010. This is compared to $39,957 of cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, cash decreased by $601,476 leaving the Company with $279,532 in cash at December 31, 2010. This is compared to a $449,820 increase in cash during the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
 
 
46

 

 
The  Company  incurred a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $200,724 as compared to a net loss of $769,332 for that same period ended December 31, 2009. There can be no assurance whatsoever that the Company will generate income in the future. While the Company is currently pursuing new contracts from both the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and from commercial customers, there can be no assurance whatsoever that such effort will be successful or will result in revenues to Cogility on any particular timetable or in any particular amounts. The Company has a history of losses as evidenced by the accumulated deficit at December 31, 2010 of $4,835,690.

Results of Operations

The Company enters into contractual arrangements with end-users of its products to sell software licenses, hardware, consulting services and maintenance services, either separately or in various combinations thereof. For each arrangement, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable, collection of the fees is probable, and delivery of the product or services has occurred. See additional revenue recognition disclosure under “Critical Accounting Policies.”
 
Cost of revenue consists primarily of the cost of hardware and software and the cost of services provided to customers. Cost of services includes direct costs of labor, employee benefits and related travel.
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of professional fees, salaries and related costs for accounting, administration, finance, human resources, information systems and legal personnel.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2011 to March 31, 2010

RevenueRevenue was $18,388 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $40,167 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing a decrease of $21,779, or 54.2%.  Revenue net of costs on contracts in progress are deferred until such time the contracts are completed.  At March 31, 2011 the Company had one contract in progress which was completed in the second quarter of 2011. At March 31, 2010 the Company had two contracts in progress which were completed in the second and third quarters of 2010.

Cost of RevenueOur cost of services was $88 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $21,206 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing a decrease of $21,118 or 99.6%.  The decrease in our cost of services was due to all sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 relating to maintenance and support services which have a very high profit margin due to very few costs and little to no labor allocable to those services.

Although the preceding table summarizes the net changes and percent changes with respect to our revenues and our cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the trends contained therein are limited and should not be viewed as a definitive indication of our future results. The Company completed its last significant government contractual arrangement in September of 2010 and since that time has not generated any significant new revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative ExpenseSelling, general and administrative expense, including non-cash compensation expense, was $1,197,056 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $580,892 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $616,164, or 106%. The increase in our selling, general and administrative expense related to an increase in salaries and wages not allocable to contracts, an increase in stock based compensation expense, and an increase in rental expense.
 
Net LossWe realized a net loss of $1,189,932 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $581,231 during the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in the net loss of $608,701 or 105% was primarily related to the increase in compensation relating to issuance of stock options in the amount of $504,398. We may continue to incur losses in the future as contracts have closed and new contracts are not entered into.

The general the nature of the contracts that generated the material portions of our quantified revenues related to the Joint Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Defeat Organization (JIEDDO). JIEDDO’s mission is to eliminate IEDs as a weapon of strategic influence.  Weapons Technical Intelligence (WTI), based on sound collection, exploitation, and analysis, generates four major outputs: force-production, targeting, sourcing, and support to prosecution. The JIEDDO IED strategy is to Attack the Network, Defeat the Device, and Train the Force.  One of the WTI effort goals is to make Counter-IED (C-IED) information actionable at the strategic, operational and tactical levels.  The objective of our subcontract is to further develop the existing pilot version of the WRITE hardware/software application. This development effort will advance the current application to a production ready application that integrates IED information for strategic, operational, and tactical use within the context of the current version of the WTI lexicon.

Copies of the following Cogility contracts are attached as exhibits to this Information Statement: (i) The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory Dated October 20, 2009; and (ii) The Analysis Corporation Dated January 4, 2010.
Cost of revenue consists primarily of the cost of hardware and software and the cost of services provided to customers. Cost of services include direct costs of labor, employee benefits and related travel.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of professional fees, salaries and related costs for accounting, administration, finance, human resources, information systems and legal personnel.

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

RevenueSoftware licensing and hardware sales were $524,527 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $1,100,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009, representing a decrease of $575,473, or 52.3%,  due  to a large, one-time software licensing sale to a single government contract customer in the year ended December 31, 2009.

Revenue from consulting services was $4,215,775 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $2,598,431 for year ended December 31, 2009, representing an increase of $1,617,344, or 62.2%. The increase in consulting services revenue was primarily due to the completion of two government contracts that were closed and accounted for under the completed contract method during the year ended December 31, 2010.  The two government contracts accounted for 86.0% of total revenue. Of the remaining 14.0% of revenue, 12.0% was made to one commercial customer, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 where one government contract with two phases accounted for 96.0% of total revenue.

Cost of RevenueOur cost of software licensing and hardware sales was $510,427 for the year  ended December 31, 2010, compared to $312,470 for the year  ended December 31, 2009, representing an increase of $197,957, or 63.4%. The increase in our cost of software licensing and hardware sales was due to an increase in the cost of hardware sold, which was partially offset by a decrease in the cost of software sold.  Traditionally, software sales have a higher gross profit margin while hardware sales have a lower gross profit margin. The cost of hardware in some instances is passed through to the customer at cost or very close to cost.

Our cost of consulting, maintenance and support services for the year  ended December 31, 2010 was $1,996,982 compared to $2,829,189 for the year  ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $832,207, or 29.4%. The decrease in cost of services resulted in an increase in profitability on contracts entered into and completed for year ended December 31, 2010. The gross profit increased as management became more familiar with the government contracting process and was able to factor in the costs of involving prime contractors when bidding on the government contracts closed during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Although the preceding table summarizes the net changes and percent changes with respect to our revenues and our cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the trends contained therein are limited and should not be viewed as a definitive indication of our future results. The Company completed its last government contractual arrangement in September of 2010 and since that time has not generated any significant new revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative ExpenseSelling, general and administrative expense, including non-cash compensation expense, was $2,467,872 for the year  ended December 31, 2010, compared to $1,284,645 for the year ended December 31, 2009, representing an increase of $1,183,227, or 92.1%. The increase in our selling, general and administrative expense related to an increase in salaries and wages not allocable to contracts, an increase in stock based compensation expense, an increase in rental expense as well as the write-off of certain uncollectible accounts and employee loans that took place during the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Net LossWe realized a net loss of $200,724 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to a net loss of $769,332 during the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in the net loss of $568,608 or 73.9% was primarily related to the increase in contract profitably realized in the year ended December 31, 2010. The gross profit increased as management became more familiar with the government contracting process and was able to factor in the costs of involving prime contractors when bidding on the government contracts closed during the year ended December 31, 2010.   We may continue to incur losses in the future as existing contracts have closed and new contracts are not entered into.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Significant estimates include share-based compensation forfeiture rates and the potential outcome of future tax consequences of events that have been recognized for financial reporting purposes. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers, net an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company evaluates the collectability of the amount receivable from each customer and provides an allowance for those amounts estimated to be uncertain of collection. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Property and Equipment – Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged to expense as incurred. When depreciable assets are retired, sold, traded in or otherwise disposed, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three to five years. Depreciation expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $9,887 and $8,553, respectively.  Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $42,649, and $32,673, respectively.

Software Development Costs   Software development costs consist primarily of compensation of development personnel, related overhead incurred to develop new products and upgrade and enhance the Company's current products and fees paid to outside consultants. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the determination of technological feasibility and marketability of a software product are capitalized. Capitalization of costs ceases and amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and the years ended December 31, 2010, and 2009, no software development costs were capitalized because the time period and cost incurred between technological feasibility and general release for all software product releases was insignificant.

Revenue Recognition – The Company enters into contractual arrangements with end-users of its products to sell software licenses, hardware, consulting services and maintenance services, either separately or in various combinations thereof. For each arrangement, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable, collection of the fees is probable, and delivery of the product or services has occurred. When the Company is the primary obligor or bears the risk of loss, revenue and costs are recorded on a gross basis. When the Company receives a fixed transactional fee, revenue is recorded under the net method based on the net amount retained.
 
 
 
50

 

 
In contractual arrangements where services are essential to the functionality of the software or hardware, or payment of the license fees are dependent upon the performance of the related services, revenue for the software license, hardware and consulting fees are recognized on the completed-contract method when the contract is substantially completed and all related deliverables have been provided to and accepted by the customer. This method is used because the Company is unable to accurately estimate total cost of individual contracts until the contracts are substantially complete. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Claims for additional compensation are recognized during the period such claims are resolved and collected.

Costs of software, hardware and costs incurred in performing the contract services are deferred until the related revenue is recognized. Contract costs include all purchased software and hardware, subcontract and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, equipment, and travel costs as well as depreciation on equipment used in performance of the contractual arrangements. Depreciation on administrative assets and selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Costs in excess of amounts billed are classified as current assets under the caption Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Billings in excess of costs are classified as current liabilities under the caption Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts. Contract retentions are included in accounts receivables.

Software Licensing and Hardware Sales: When software licensing and/or hardware functionality are not dependent upon performance of services, the amount of revenue under the arrangement is allocated to the deliverable elements based on prices the Company sells the separate elements, if objectively determinable. If so determinable, the amounts allocated to the software licensing are recognized as revenue at the time of shipment of the software to the customer. Such sales occur when the Company resells third-party software and hardware systems and related peripherals as part of an end-to-end solution to its customers.  The Company considers delivery to occur when the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer.

Consulting Services: Consulting services are comprised of consulting, implementation, software installation, data conversion, building interfaces to allow the software to operate in integrated environments, training and applications. Consulting services are sold on a fixed-fee and a time-and-materials basis, with payment normally due upon achievement of specific milestones. Consulting services revenue is recognized under the completed-contract method as described above.

Maintenance and Support Services: Maintenance and support services consist primarily of fees for providing unspecified software upgrades on a when-and-if-available basis and technical support over a specified term, which is typically twelve months. Maintenance revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the related agreement.

Concentration of Significant Customers – At March 31, 2011, accounts receivables from one customer accounted for 100% of total accounts receivable. At December 31, 2009, accounts receivables from two customers accounted for 91% of total accounts receivable.  In 2009, revenue from one customer was 95% of total revenue. In 2010, revenue from two customers totaled 86% of total revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 revenue from one customer was 100% of total revenue and revenue from two customers totaled 79% of total revenue, respectively.

Income Taxes – Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided on differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements and on tax carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred income tax assets when it is not more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share –The computation of basic loss per share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined by the treasury stock method.
 
Share-Based Compensation Plan – Stock-based compensation to employees and consultants is recognized as a cost of the services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments and is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award or the fair value of the consideration received, whichever is more reliably measureable. Compensation expense is recognized over the period during which service is required to be provided in exchange for the award (the vesting period).

Contractual Cash Obligations and Commercial Commitments
 
The Company leases three facilities under the terms of operating leases.  The Company is currently leasing office space for $3,826 per month through November 30, 2011. The Company is also leasing office space for $3,400 per month through a lease agreement that ended March 31, 2011. The Company is currently leasing the facility on a month to month basis. Lastly, the Company was leasing temporary housing space for $4,250 per month through April 15, 2011. The Company vacated that space on June 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2010, future minimum lease payments under the terms of the lease agreements were $73,536, which are all due during the year ending December 31, 2011.

On December 14, 2010, the Company issued a Promissory Note (the RJFT $200,000 Note) to an entity related to an officer of the Company (RJFT) in the amount of $200,000 to finance working capital needs. The note bore interest at 5% per annum, was due December 31, 2013 and was unsecured. Interest payments were due quarterly starting March 2011.

 On January 31, 2011, Cogility and Acquired Sales Corp. agreed upon a financing strategy pursuant to which Acquired Sales Corp. would conduct a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to accredited investors of $2,000,000 of Bridge Offering units (individually a “Bridge Unit”). Each Bridge Unit consists of $1 principal amount of a Promissory Note bearing interest at 3% per annum and due December 31, 2014 (individually a “Bridge Note”, and collectively the “Bridge Notes”) and warrants to purchase 10 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (which shall convert into warrants to purchase 0.5 shares of common stock of Acquired Sales Corp. at an exercise price of $2.00 per share after the completion of the planned 1-for-20 reverse split of Acquired Sales Corp.’s common stock), with an alternate cashless exercise provision (“Warrants”). In addition, at any time within the first 90 calendar days following the date of the completion of the Merger with Cogility, if any such Merger occurs, the investors, in their sole discretion, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make a second loan investment in Bridge Units, provided that such second investment in Bridge Units shall be in the same amount and on the same terms, conditions and documentation described above as such investor’s initial investment in Bridge Units.  Investments in the Private Placement shall be in the form of cash, excepting only that the RJFT shall be permitted to invest in the Bridge Units by assigning to Acquired Sales Corp. the RJFT $200,000 Loan instead of by paying cash, and an unrelated individual shall be permitted to invest in the Bridge Units by assigning to Acquired Sales Corp. his $20,000 loan to Cortez Systems, a company 49% owned by Cogility, instead of by paying cash. The Bridge Notes are jointly secured by a first lien security interest in all of the assets of Cogility.

The financing strategy contemplates that a significant portion of the cash proceeds of the Private Placement will be loaned by Acquired Sales Corp. to Cogility evidenced by a series of Promissory Notes bearing interest at 5% per annum and due December 31, 2014 (collectively the “Cogility Notes”). The Cogility Notes are jointly secured by a first lien security interest in all of the assets of Cogility. In addition to the RJFT $200,000 Note and the $20,000 loan to Cortez Systems that were assigned to Acquired Sales Corp, Cogility has received $600,000 under this agreement.

The Company entered into an agreement with a consultant on February 18, 2011 whereby the Company has agreed to pay the consultant a fee based on net revenue received from a potential new software product. The fee would be equal to 5% of the net revenue received, after deducting software licensing and equipment costs from third parties, from two potential contracts and, for a period of five years, any subsequent revenue from reselling the work product that may result from providing software and services under either of the two potential contracts.

At March 31, 2011, the Company is obligated to pay $450,376 of notes payable. A note payable to an individual of $318,000 bears interest at 5.75% and is due October 15, 2012. An additional note payable to that same individual in the amount of $18,728, bearing interest at 5.75% per annum, is unsecured and is due October 25, 2012. These notes are classified as current liabilities in the financial statements due to a provision that accelerates the due date of the notes upon the completion of certain future fundraising events. A  non-interest bearing note payable to a finance company of $105,070 is due on demand. On September 16 and 29, 2010, the Company signed letters agreeing to pay two executive  officers $47,000 and $168,967, respectively, in one-time commissions, with payment deferred until 30 days after the closing of a private placement of common stock or debt convertible into common stock in the total amount of at least $2,000,000. The amounts have been included in the financial statements as accrued compensation.

On June 13, 2011, a key executive resigned his position and entered into a severance agreement with the Company.  On September 16, 2010 the Company had signed a letter agreeing to pay the executive officer $47,000 in one-time commissions, with payment deferred until 30 days after the closing of a private placement of common stock or debt convertible into common stock in the total amount of at least $2,000,000. Under the severance agreement the executive will receive a onetime bonus of $35,000 and deferred compensation of $18,432 upon completion of a private placement of common stock or debt convertible into common stock in the total amount of at least $2,000,000. The executive shall be paid additional deferred compensation of $9,662 upon the earlier of the completion of the $2,000,000 private placement or September 30, 2011.  In addition, the severance agreement modified the terms of stock options held by the former employee for the purchase of 66,666 common shares such that the stock options will not expire until June 14, 2012. Stock options for the purchase of 133,333 common shares were forfeited.
On June 24, 2011 an employee resigned and entered into a severance agreement with the Company.  Under the severance agreement, the former employee deferred vacation pay in the amount of $8,224 until the earlier of the completion of a $2,000,000 private placement offering or September 23, 2011.  In addition, the severance agreement modified the terms of stock options held by the former employee for the purchase of 133,000 common shares such that the stock options will not expire until June 24, 2012.  Stock options for the purchase of 67,000 common shares were forfeited unless the former employee again becomes a full-time employee prior to August 1, 2011."

On April 15, 2011, an individual loaned the Company $100,000 for working capital needs.  The loan is unsecured, non interest bearing and is due upon demand. On June 29, 2011, that same individual loaned the Company an additional $125,000 for working capital needs. The loan is unsecured, non interest bearing, and is due upon demand.

On June 16, 2011 Acquired Sales Corp. loaned the Company $25,000 for working capital needs.  The loan is unsecured, bears interest at 5% per annum, and is due upon demand.

On June 21, 2011 a lending company loaned the Company $25,000 for working capital needs.  The loan is unsecured, is non interest bearing and is due upon demand.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements – We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

AMENDMENT OF CHARTER, BYLAWS
OR OTHER DOCUMENTS
 
Amendment of Articles to Increase Authorized Stock

Our board of directors adopted resolutions and a majority of our stockholders approved such resolutions to amend the Corporation’s articles of incorporation to increase the Corporation’s authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from 50,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares.

Reasons for increasing the authorized stock

We are increasing the amount of our authorized and outstanding  Common Stock primarily to   make available additional shares of our capital stock if our Board determines that it is necessary or appropriate to permit future stock dividends or stock splits or to issue additional shares to raise capital through the sale of securities, to acquire one or more other companies or their  businesses or assets, to establish strategic relationships with corporate partners, to provide equity incentives to employees, officers, or directors or to pursue other matters.  The increase in our authorized capital will not have any immediate effect on the rights of our existing stockholders.
 
 To the extent that additional authorized shares are issued in the future, such issuance may decrease our existing stockholders' percentage equity ownership and, depending on the price at which they are issued, could be dilutive to our existing stockholders.  The holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive rights.  The increase in our authorized capital will not have any immediate effect on the rights of our existing stockholders, and did not result from our knowledge of any specific effort to accumulate our securities or to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy solicitation or otherwise.
 
We currently have no plans, commitments or arrangements to issue the additional authorized shares other than shares and options to be issued in connection with the acquisition of Cogility. However, we are considering the sale of common stock or preferred stock, or incurring additional indebtedness, in order to fully or partially repay existing indebtedness of ours or of Cogility, and to provide us and Cogility with working capital. Because of Cogility’s current severe liquidity problems, we hope to raise such additional capital in the near future. In addition, we continue to explore possible acquisition transactions, some of which could involve the issuance of additional shares from time to time and/or the incurring of additional indebtedness in order to consummate such transactions.  Finally, the Company may issue additional shares from time to time to its consultants, directors or employees as compensation for services performed for the Company.
 

 
55

 
 
The increase in the number of authorized shares and the subsequent issuance of such shares could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by our stockholders.  Shares of authorized and unissued common stock and preferred stock could (within the limits imposed by applicable law and stock exchange policies) be issued in one or more transactions that would make a change in control of the Company more difficult, and therefore, less likely.  For example, such shares could be privately placed with purchasers who might side with the Board in opposing a hostile takeover bid.  Any such issuance of additional stock could have the effect of diluting our earnings per share and book value per share of outstanding shares of our common stock or the stock ownership and voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of the Company.  The relative rights and limitations of the shares of Common Stock will remain unchanged under the Amendment.
 
The Company has no plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements, except as disclosed herein, that may have material anti-takeover consequences.  The Board is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this proposal is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.
 
We will accomplish the increase in our authorized capital by filing of the Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State on or about May 3, 2011 or as soon thereafter as possible.

RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors have been written assuming that the merger of Acquired Sales and Cogility has been completed. Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties may cause our operations to vary materially from those contemplated by our forward-looking statements. These risk factors include:

Risk Factors Relating to Our Company and Our Stock

Our balance sheet is weak and we lack liquidity

Our balance sheet is weak. We have very little cash on hand and our payables are greater than our cash on hand. We can give no assurance that our working capital will be adequate to meet all of our short-term liquidity requirements include payroll. During the past few months, we have restructured over $500,000 of overdue debt and bonuses owed to our employees, in order to try to give us breathing room to raise additional capital. There is no guarantee that we can obtain the funding needed for our operations on acceptable terms, if at all, and neither our directors, officers, or any third party is obligated to provide any financing. A failure to pay our debts and payroll obligations when they become due and payable could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be profitable in the future

We have not been profitable during most of our years of operation. We face many risks that could prevent us from achieving profits in future years. We cannot assure you that we will be profitable in the future. In the Merger, we acquired Cogility. Cogility has a very limited history of operations, and has been unprofitable in all but one year of its operations. Our acquisition of Cogility involves significant risk, as there can be no assurance that the business of Cogility will be successful or generate any profit. A failure to achieve profitability could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.
 

 
56

 
 
Our Stock lacks a meaningful public market

At present no active market exists for our Stock and there is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop and if developed, that it will be sustained. An owner of our Stock may, therefore, be unable to sell our Stock should he or she desire to do so. Or, if an owner of our Stock decides to sell our Stock, such sales could drive the price of our Stock significantly lower. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our Stock as pledged collateral for loans. This lack of liquidity could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Our Stock may never be listed on a national exchange

Our Stock may never meet the listing requirements of a national exchange. You should not assume that an effort to list our Stock would be successful, or if successful, that such listing requirements will be maintained, including but not limited to requirements associated with maintenance of a minimum net worth, minimum stock price, and ability to establish a sufficient number of market makers.

Our Stock may be considered a "penny stock" and may be difficult to trade

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market or exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions.  The market price of our Stock may be less than $5.00 per share and, therefore, may be designated as a “penny stock” according to SEC rules.  This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, to obtain a written agreement from the purchaser, and to determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities.  These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our Stock and may adversely affect the ability of investors to sell our Stock, and may materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

Our Stock lacks institutional or analyst support

Our company has limited if any institutional support. In addition, investment banks with research capabilities do not currently follow our Stock. This lack of institutional or analyst support lessens the trading volume and general market interest in our Stock, and may adversely affect an investor's ability to trade a significant amount of our Stock. This lack of institutional or analyst support could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

The public float of our Stock is small

The public float of our Stock is small, which may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in our Stock. This lack of liquidity could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

The trading price of our Stock may be volatile and could drop quickly and unexpectedly

The stocks of micro-cap and small-cap companies, especially technology companies, have experienced substantial volatility in the past, often based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These factors include macro-economic developments in North America and globally, and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries. This volatility could materially adversely affect our company by making it more difficult to raise capital or complete acquisitions. In addition, securities class-action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. Our company may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and damages and divert our management’s attention and resources away from our business. For these reasons and others, quick and unexpected drops in the trading price of our Stock are likely from time to time. Volatility in our Stock price could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

It may be difficult to predict our financial performance because our quarterly operating results may fluctuate

Our revenue and operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control. The factors that may affect our quarterly operating results include, but are not limited to, the following:  (1) fluctuations in customer demand for our products and services; (2) the timing and nature of future sales transactions and the accounting treatment with respect to customer contracts; (3) the timing and nature of future capital raises and acquisitions;  (4) the introduction of new products or services and the market responses to those introductions;  (5) customer budgetary pressures and the timing of availability of funding for purchases, or delays in processing or making payments for products or services that have been delivered; (6) changes in pricing policies or service offerings;  (7) changes in the level of administrative costs, sales, marketing and other operating expenses to support future growth; (8) fluctuations in the cost of marketing and advertising; (9) competitive factors; (10) fluctuations in our Stock price which may impact the amount of stock-based compensation expense we are required to record; (11) possible impairments of the recorded amounts of goodwill, intangible assets, or other long-lived assets; (12) the timing and amount of expenses associated with future litigation or restructuring activities; (13) new accounting pronouncements, or new interpretations of existing accounting pronouncements, that impact the manner in which we account for, measure or disclose our results of operations, financial position or other financial measures; (14) deterioration in the credit quality of our accounts receivable and an increase in the related provision; (15) disputes or disagreements with our customers; (16) changes in our customers' strategies, budgets or priorities for developing, acquiring, deploying, or evaluating software or other technology; (17) new software or other technologies; (18) changes in laws, rules and regulations; (19) changes in our effective income tax rate; (20) costs related to the development or acquisition of software, other technology, or businesses; (21) increases in the costs of software licenses or other intellectual property-related costs; and (22) general economic conditions.

Consequently, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations will not necessarily be meaningful, and you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of our future performance. Our results of operations may fall below the expectations of acquisition candidates, of research analysts (if any), of investors, or of our own forecasts in some future periods, which may have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We are adversely affected by the difficult economy and by turmoil in the financial markets

Our business and our clients' businesses are materially adversely affected by periods of significant economic slowdown or recession, fears of inflation or deflation, rising interest rates, declining demand for our products or our clients' products, or a public perception that any of these events are occurring or may occur, which could adversely affect our revenues, results of operations, and cash flow. In addition, the capital and credit markets have been experiencing, and continue to experience, volatility and disruption. Current national and global financial and business conditions have been very difficult, and numerous financial institutions and businesses either have gone into bankruptcy or have had to be rescued by governmental authorities. Access to financing has been negatively impacted by both sub-prime mortgages and the liquidity crisis affecting the asset-backed commercial paper market. Credit remains tight.  In many cases, the markets have exerted downward pressure on stock prices and credit capacity for certain issuers. These factors could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be able to raise needed capital

We need to raise substantial amounts of additional capital, both for our existing operations, for organic growth and for acquisitions. In addition to the $700,000 raised in the first three months of 2011, we hope to raise additional capital for our Cogility Software Corporation subsidiary over the next few months, and potentially more for other acquisitions. However, our aggregate future capital requirements are uncertain. The amount of capital that we will need in the future will depend on many factors that we cannot predict with any certainty, including: the market acceptance of our products and services; the levels of promotion and advertising that will be required to launch our new products and services and achieve and maintain a competitive position in the marketplace; our business, product, capital expenditures and technology plans, and product and technology roadmaps; technological advances; our competitors’ responses to our products and services; our pursuit of mergers and acquisitions; and our relationships with our customers.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise the needed capital on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. Delay, disruption, or failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in the delay or failure of our business plans. Our inability to raise sufficient capital on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Our Stock may be subject to significant dilution

Our capital raising may include the sale of significant numbers of shares of our Stock or other securities convertible into our Stock. We also may issue significant numbers of shares of our Stock, or options, warrants, or other securities convertible into shares of our Stock, as a portion of the consideration for acquisitions. Such transactions may significantly increase the number of outstanding shares of our Stock, and may be highly dilutive to our existing Stockholders. In addition, the securities that we issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our outstanding Stock. This dilution could have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock. In addition, we have options and warrants outstanding to purchase 2,590,000 shares of our Stock, post reverse split. If all of these 2,590,000 options and warrants were to be exercised, the number of outstanding shares of our Stock would increase significantly. Moreover, additional shares may be issued in connection with Cogility acquisition and business operations. This dilution could have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Raising capital by selling our Stock is difficult to accomplish

Selling equity is difficult to accomplish in the current market. This difficulty may make future acquisitions either unlikely, or too difficult and expensive. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Raising capital by selling our Stock could be expensive

If we were to raise capital by selling common stock or securities convertible into common stock, it could be expensive. We may be required to pay fees equal to 7% or more of the gross sales proceeds raised, in addition to legal, accounting and other fees and expenses. In addition, when it becomes known within the investment community that an issuer is seeking to raise equity capital, it is common for the common stock of that issuer to be sold off in the market, lowering the trading price of the issuer's common stock in advance of the pricing of the issue. This could make our raising capital by selling equity securities significantly more expensive and materially adversely affect the trading price of our Stock.

Debt financing is difficult to obtain

Debt financing is difficult to obtain in the current credit markets. This difficulty may make future acquisitions either unlikely, or too difficult and expensive. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Raising capital by borrowing could be risky

If we were to raise capital by borrowing to fund our operations or acquisitions, it could be risky. Borrowing typically results in less dilution than in connection with equity financings, but it also would increase our risk, in that cash is required to service the debt, ongoing covenants are typically employed which can restrict the way in which we operate our business, and if the debt comes due either upon maturity or an event of default, we may lack the resources at that time to either pay off or refinance the debt, or if we are able to refinance, the refinancing may be on terms that are less favorable than those originally in place, and may require additional equity or quasi equity accommodations. These risks could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.
 

 
59

 
 
Our financing decisions may be made without Stockholder approval

Our financing decisions and related decisions regarding levels of debt, capitalization, distributions, acquisitions and other key operating parameters, are determined by our board of directors in its discretion, in many cases without any notice to or vote by our Stockholders. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We lack investor relations, public relations and advertising resources

We lack the resources to properly support investor relations, public relations, and advertising efforts. This puts us at a disadvantage with potential acquisition candidates, investors, research analysts, customers, and job applicants. These disadvantages could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Sales of our Stock could cause the trading price of our Stock to fall

Sellers of our Stock might include our existing stockholders who have held our Stock for years, former stockholders of Cogility who now own our Stock, or our directors, officers or employees who might exercise stock options and simultaneously sell our Stock. Since the trading volume of our Stock is very low and the amount of our Stock in the public float is very small, any sales or attempts to sell our Stock, or the perception that sales or attempts to sell our Stock could occur, could adversely affect the trading price of our Stock.

An increase in interest rates may have an adverse effect on the trading price of our Stock

An increase in market interest rates may tend to make our common stock less attractive relative to other investments, which could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Increases in taxes and regulatory compliance costs may reduce our revenue

Costs resulting from changes in or new income taxes, value added taxes, service taxes, or other taxes, may not be able to be passed along to clients and consequently may adversely affect our margins. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We are adversely affected by regulatory uncertainties

Regulatory uncertainties regarding potential adverse changes in federal and state laws and governmental regulations materially adversely affect our business, our clients' businesses, and the trading price of our Stock.

A small number of stockholders have significant influence over us

A small number of our stockholders and members of our board of directors and management acting together would be able to exert significant influence over us through their ability to influence the election of directors and all other matters that require action by our Stockholders. The voting power of these individuals could have the effect of preventing or delaying a change in control of our company which they oppose even if our other stockholders believe it is in their best interests. Gerard M. Jacobs and Matthew Ghourdjian collectively beneficially own a substantial majority of our shares of common stock. They have agreed to vote all of the shares of our Stock that are legally or beneficially owned by them or their affiliates in favor of the election of slates of directors which have been mutually selected by them, and as to certain other matters. In addition, our shareholders have authorized Gerard M. Jacobs to seek similar shareholders agreements and/or proxies from other parties, including potential future capital sources and the owners of potential future acquisition candidates. Accordingly, Gerard M. Jacobs and Matthew Ghourdjian, if the corporate actions set out herein are consummated, will have substantial influence over our policies and management.  We may take actions supported by Gerard M. Jacobs and Matthew Ghourdjian that may not be viewed by some stockholders to be in our best interest, or Gerard M. Jacobs and Matthew Ghourdjian could prevent or delay a change in our control which they oppose even if our other stockholders believe it is in their best interests. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

State law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws help preserve insiders' control over us

Provisions of Nevada state law, our articles of incorporation and by-laws may discourage, delay or prevent a change in our management team that stockholders may consider favorable.  These provisions may include: (1) authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock without any need for action by stockholders; (2) permitting stockholder action by written consent; and (3) establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors, or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings. These provisions, if included in our articles of incorporation or by-laws, could allow our board of directors to affect an investor’s rights as a stockholder since our board of directors could make it more difficult for preferred stockholders or common stockholders to replace members of the board of directors.  Because the board of directors is responsible for appointing the members of the management team, these provisions could in turn affect any attempt to replace the current or future management team. These factors could adversely affect our company or the trading price of our Stock.

Our directors and Chief Executive Officer allocate their time to other businesses

Our Chief Executive Officer’s primary business activity during the past year (generally 20-40 hours per week) has been the investigation and negotiation of potential acquisitions including Cogility. However, our Chief Executive Officer and our directors are not required to, and do not, commit their full time to our affairs, thereby causing conflicts of interest in allocating their time between our operations and the operations of other businesses.  Our Chief Executive Officer and each of our directors is engaged in one or more other business endeavors and is not obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per day or per week to our affairs. This situation limits our Chief Executive Officer’s and our directors’ ability to devote time to our affairs and could have a negative impact on our ability to raise money or consummate a business combination. This could have a negative impact on our company and on our stock price.

Retaining and attracting directors and officers may be expensive

We cannot make any assurances regarding the future roles of our current directors and officers. Some of our current directors and officers are and will in the future be involved in other businesses, and are not required to, and do not, commit their full time to our affairs, thereby causing conflicts of interest in allocating their time between our operations and the operations of other businesses. We have no employment agreements with any of our existing directors or officers. Some or all of our current directors and officers may resign upon our raising money, upon our consummation of a business combination, or otherwise. Attracting and retaining our directors and officers may be expensive, and may require that we enter into long term employment agreements, issue stock options, and otherwise incentivize our directors and officers. The costs of these incentives could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We indemnify our directors and officers, and certain other parties

Our bylaws specifically limit the liability of our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. As a result, aggrieved parties may have a more limited right to action than they would have had if such provisions were not present. The Bylaws also provide for indemnification of our officers and directors for any losses or liabilities they may incur as a result of the manner in which they operated our business or conducted internal affairs, provided that in connection with these activities they acted in good faith and in a manner which they reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interest. In the ordinary course of business, we also may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of our breach of such agreements, services to be provided by us, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third-parties. We may also agree to indemnify former officers, directors and employees of acquired companies in connection with the acquisition of such companies. Such indemnification agreements may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of exposure in regard to these obligations to indemnify, due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular situation. Use of our capital or assets for such indemnification would reduce amounts available for the operations or for distribution to our investors, which could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We do not expect to pay dividends

For the foreseeable future, it is anticipated that earnings, if any, which may be generated from our operations will be used to finance our growth and that dividends may not be paid to the holders of our Stock, which may have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Our cost of being a publicly traded company will increase significantly once we own a business

While we were a shell corporation, our costs of being a publicly traded company were limited. Now that we are in the process of taking ownership of Cogility, our management expenses, legal and accounting fees, and other costs associated with being a publicly traded company, will increase significantly. These additional costs are expected to be material and to include the hiring of a qualified full-time Chief Financial Officer, as well as additional employees and/or the retention of additional consultants and professionals, in order to have appropriate internal financial controls and accurate financial reporting, and otherwise to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.  While we cannot state with certainty what all of these costs will be, we believe that our management expenses, legal and accounting fees, and other costs associated with being a publicly traded company, will increase by at least $250,000 per year.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO COGILITY'S BUSINESS

We are heavily dependent upon federal defense spending

We derive a majority of our revenue from the federal government, including agencies within the U.S. defense and intelligence communities. Any decline in our business with the federal government would materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

Federal defense spending may decrease

There is tremendous pressure on the federal government today to reduce spending because of the large federal budget deficits. These pressures are particularly acute on the U.S. Defense Department, which has begun to make statements and to take actions in this regard. Reduced federal government spending on defense contracting, including new software initiatives such as those proposed by our Cogility Software Corporation subsidiary, could materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

Federal contracts frequently have long lead times and are subject to delays

Due to the importance, sensitivity and complexity of the federal projects that we typically pursue, such project frequently have long lead times and are subject to delays beyond our control. Often, projects require that we produce a demo to show the functionalities of our product. Delays may be caused by factors within our control, such as possible software coding issues, as well as those outside our control, such as clients’ budgetary constraints, internal acceptance reviews, functionality enhancements, lack of trained client personnel to implement our applications, and the complexity of particular clients' needs. Also, failure to deliver product features consistent with delivery commitments could result in a delay in revenue recognition or cancellation of a project contract. In some cases, potential future federal projects are under the jurisdiction of, or are reviewed by, multiple federal agencies or communities, which sometimes causes further delays. These long lead times and delays can subject us to situations where important and highly paid personnel are not as productive or efficient as they could be, which can significantly reduce both our revenues and margins. As a result, we can give you no assurance that our current or potential future federal projects will be profitable, or at any particular margins. This situation could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Many of our competitors are larger and better capitalized

The market for software and related products and services is highly competitive. We expect this competition to continue to increase. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of our market share. If existing or future competitors develop or offer products or services that provide significant performance, price, creative or other advantages over those offered by us, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be negatively affected.

Many of our competitors are much larger and better capitalized than we are. These companies have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases, and have greater financial, technical, sales, and marketing resources than we have. Larger companies also have the ability to enter into select market segments and subsidize the cost of operations in order to gain market share through a variety of strategies which include price wars, advertising campaigns, the ability to cross-market brands and services, and the ability to develop better software and functionalities.  Their access to greater amounts of capital may enable them to attract top talent, and to promote national brands. These larger competitors frequently can offer a wider scope of products and services to their customers than we can.  In addition, these competitors often have many years of experience and established relationships with the major U.S. defense and intelligence agencies. These competitors include such companies as Oracle, IBM, Microsoft, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, SAIC, and The Boeing Company. As a result, we may not be able to compete successfully. Such a failure could materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

We rely upon relationships with larger and better established defense contractors

In order to grow our business in the federal defense and intelligence sectors, we must cultivate, retain and strengthen successful business relationships and marketing alliances with larger and better established defense contractors. We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on our business relationships and marketing alliances, which are companies with which we have written or oral agreements to work together to jointly pursue projects within the federal defense and intelligence communities. If companies with which we have business relationships and marketing alliances do not work together with us to jointly pursue projects within the federal defense and intelligence communities, it could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

There is resistance to new software technology

There is significant resistance to new software technology. Typically there has been a substantial investment in legacy software, equipment, and training, which people are reluctant to abandon. New software technology is also resisted due to its perceived cost and due to a lack of certainty as to its benefits. Often we do not have enough champions of the capabilities and benefits of our software technology to overcome this resistance to new software technology. This resistance to new software technology can materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

Our software technology is difficult to understand and explain

Our software technology is complex and is often difficult to understand if you are not a highly qualified software engineer. In addition, much of our work involves dealing with classified defense and intelligence data that limits our ability to clearly explain what we do to potential investors. The difficulty involved in understanding and explaining our software technology materially adversely affects our business and the trading price of our Stock.
 

 
63

 
 
Our software technology may suffer from design or performance defects

If our software technology suffers from design or performance defects, we could become subject to significant liability claims. Technologies as complex as our software technology may contain design and/or performance defects which are not detectable even after extensive internal testing. Such defects may become apparent only after widespread commercial use. Our contracts with our customers currently do not contain provisions to completely limit our exposure to liabilities resulting from liability claims. A product liability claim brought against us could cause significant damage to our reputation, and could cost us financially in terms of legal fees, damages or fines, and costs to cure the defects. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Our brand awareness is extremely limited and we have no advertising

Our software subsidiary has very limited brand awareness, and developing adequate brand awareness may not be possible or may be too costly to achieve.  Many of our competitors have much more widespread brand awareness and much more financial ability to promote their brands.  In addition, our brand and reputation are closely associated with the business and personal reputations of our key personnel. Any damage to the business or personal reputation of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property from unauthorized use

Our success depends in part on our proprietary software technology. The protection of our intellectual property using patents may be critical to our success. We will likely rely on a combination of patents, licensing arrangements, trade secret laws, contractual restrictions, and confidentiality procedures to establish and attempt to protect our proprietary software technology and rights that we may acquire. Despite our efforts to protect those proprietary software technology and rights, we may not be able to prevent misappropriation of those proprietary software technology and rights, nor be able to deter independent development of software technologies that compete with us. Third-party software providers could copy or otherwise obtain and use our technologies without authorization or develop similar technologies independently which may infringe upon our proprietary rights. We may not be able to detect infringement and may lose competitive position in the market before we do so. In addition, competitors may design around our technologies or develop competing technologies, and unauthorized parties may attempt to disclose, obtain or use our products and services or technologies. Intellectual property protection may also be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. We may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and police our intellectual property rights. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Further, it is likely that we will have to protect patents in an increasing number of jurisdictions, a process that is expensive and may not be successful in every location. If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the value of our products and services could be diminished and our competitive position may suffer. These factors could materially adversely impact our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may face intellectual property actions that are costly or could hinder or prevent our ability to deliver our products and services

We may be subject to legal actions alleging intellectual property infringement (including patent, trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights infringement), unfair competition or similar claims against us. Companies may apply for or be awarded patents or have other intellectual property rights covering aspects of our technologies or businesses. Any litigation alleging intellectual property infringement by us, with or without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources,  could require us to change our business practices, could potentially hinder or prevent our ability to deliver our products and services, and could divert management’s attention. This could materially adversely affect our company or the trading price of our Stock.

We use database and application server software provided by others

Cogility requires a database and application server to operate. Cogility currently sells its products bundled with database and application server software from Oracle under an Embedded Software License (ESL) agreement. Cogility's software operates equally well with similar offerings from IBM and other vendors. However, a change from Oracle may affect potential customers' acceptance of Cogility's products.

Our operations are not all in one location

We have offices in San Jose and Anaheim, California, and in Alexandria, Virginia. Matthew Ghourdjian, the Chief Executive Officer of Cogility, is a resident of Colorado, and two of our key software engineers live in Colorado and Ohio, respectively. Gerard M. Jacobs, our Chief Executive Officer, is a resident of Illinois. As a result of this situation, we may not be able to function as cohesively and efficiently as we could if all of our key personnel were located in one location. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Some of our directors lack security clearances
 
Some of our directors lack the security clearances needed in order for them to have access to classified information regarding Cogility's business. Unless and until such security clearances are obtained, such directors will be limited in regard to their ability to fully understand and evaluate Cogility's business and the opportunities and risks associated therewith.
 
We could be negatively impacted if the Internet were destroyed or seriously damaged

Our business and our clients' business partly depend upon continued use of the Internet. Internet usage may be inhibited for a number of reasons, such as: inadequate network infrastructure; security concerns; inconsistent quality of service; unavailability of cost-effective, high-speed service; sabotage; or terrorism. If for any reason the Internet were destroyed or seriously damaged, that could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We could be subject to claims in regard to our or our clients' failure to comply with privacy, consumer protection, and other laws and regulations

We may be subject to governmental investigations, claims or fines, or private lawsuits, from persons who may claim that our software technology was used by us or by our claims in a manner that failed to comply with applicable privacy, consumer protection, patent, copyright, trademark, or tax  laws or regulations. Such claims or suits could materially adversely affect our company or the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be able to adapt to changes in technology and regulation

The software industry is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving industry standards, frequent new product and service introductions, and changing customer demands. The introduction of new products and services embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards and practices could render our existing products and services obsolete and unmarketable or require unanticipated technology or other investments. In addition, we operate under a myriad of applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations governing governmental procurement, bidding, contracting procedures, and many other salient matters, any of which could change at any time. Our failure to adapt successfully to changes in technology, the competitive landscape, or governmental laws and regulations, could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We depend on key personnel, the loss of whom could harm our business
 
Our future success is substantially dependent on the continued service of our key personnel, including particularly key software engineers and sales executives. We do not have key-person insurance on any of our personnel. We do not have employment contracts with any of our key personnel, nor do we maintain any "key man" life insurance policies on these key personnel. We may not be able to retain and motivate our key personnel, many of whom could easily obtain other jobs if they were dissatisfied with our company. The loss of the services of any of our key personnel could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.
 

 
65

 

We may not be able to attract highly skilled new personnel

Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees. Highly qualified software engineers with the intelligence, creativity and experience we need are not easy to find, hire and assimilate into our company. We have experienced difficulty from time to time in attracting or retaining the personnel necessary to support the growth of our business, and may experience similar difficulties in the future. The failure to attract highly skilled new personnel could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business, and our Stock price could be materially adversely affected.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO FUTURE ACQUISITIONS

We may not be able to identify, negotiate, finance or close future acquisitions

A significant component of our growth strategy focuses on acquiring additional companies or assets.  We may not, however, be able to identify or acquire companies or assets on acceptable terms if at all.  Additionally, we may need to finance all or a portion of the purchase price for an acquisition by incurring indebtedness.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on terms that are favorable, if at all, which will limit our ability to acquire additional companies or assets in the future.  Failure to acquire additional companies or assets on acceptable terms, if at all, would have a material adverse effect on our ability to increase assets, revenues and net income and on the trading price of our common stock.

We may acquire businesses without any apparent synergies with Cogility

In an effort to diversify our sources of revenue and profits, we may decide to acquire businesses without any apparent synergies with Cogility. For example, we believe that the acquisition of manufactured housing communities across the U.S. may be an important way for us to enhance our Stockholder value. Notwithstanding the critical importance of diversification, some members of the investment community and research analysts would prefer that micro-cap or small-cap companies restrict the scope of their activity to a single line of business, and may not be willing to make an investment in, or recommend an investment in, a micro-cap or small-cap company that undertakes multiple lines of business. This situation could materially adversely impact our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be able to properly manage multiple businesses

We may not be able to properly manage multiple businesses. Managing multiple businesses would be more complicated than managing a single line of business, and would require that we hire and manage executives with experience and expertise in different fields. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to do so successfully. A failure to properly manage multiple businesses could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may not be able to successfully integrate new acquisitions

Even if we are able to acquire additional companies or assets, we may not be able to successfully integrate those companies or assets. For example, we may need to integrate widely dispersed operations with different corporate cultures, operating margins, competitive environments, computer systems, compensation schemes, business plans and growth potential requiring significant management time and attention.  In addition, the successful integration of any companies we acquire will depend in large part on the retention of personnel critical to our combined business operations due to, for example, unique technical skills or management expertise. We may be unable to retain existing management, finance, engineering, sales, customer support, and operations personnel that are critical to the success of the integrated company, resulting in disruption of operations, loss of key information, expertise or know-how, unanticipated additional recruitment and training costs, and otherwise diminishing anticipated benefits of these acquisitions, including loss of revenue and profitability. Failure to successfully integrate acquired businesses could have a material adverse effect on our company and the trading price of our Stock.
 

 
66

 

Our acquisitions of businesses may be extremely risky and we could lose all of our investments

We may invest in software companies, other technology businesses, manufactured housing communities, other real estate businesses, or other risky industries. An investment in these companies may be extremely risky because, among other things, the companies we are likely to focus on:  (1) typically have limited operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors’ actions and market conditions, as well as general economic downturns; (2) tend to be privately-owned and generally have little publicly available information and, as a result, we may not learn all of the material information we need to know regarding these businesses; (3) are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of people; and, as a result, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these people could have an adverse impact on the operations of any business that we may acquire; (4) may have less predicable operating results; (5) may from time to time be parties to litigation; (6) may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence; and  (7) may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. Our failure to make acquisitions efficiently and profitably could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and the trading price of our Stock.

Future acquisitions may fail to perform as expected

Future acquisitions may fail to perform as expected. We may overestimate cash flow, underestimate costs, or fail to understand risks. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Competition may result in overpaying for acquisitions

Other investors with significant capital may compete with us for attractive investment opportunities. These competitors may include publicly traded companies, private equity firms, privately held buyers, individual investors, and other types of investors. Such competition may increase the price of acquisitions, or otherwise adversely affect the terms and conditions of acquisitions. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may have insufficient resources to cover our operating expenses and the expenses of raising money and consummating acquisitions

We have limited cash to cover our operating expenses and to cover the expenses incurred in connection with money raising and a business combination. It is possible that we could incur substantial costs in connection with money raising or a business combination. If we do not have sufficient proceeds available to cover our expenses, we may be forced to obtain additional financing, either from our management or third parties. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, if at all, and neither our management nor any third party is obligated to provide any financing. This could have a negative impact on our company and our Stock price.

The nature of our proposed future operations is speculative and will depend to a great extent on the businesses which we acquire
 

 
67

 
 
While management typically intends to seek a merger or acquisition of privately held entities with established operating histories, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in locating an acquisition candidate meeting such criteria. In the event we complete a merger or acquisition transaction, of which there can be no assurance, our success if any will be dependent upon the operations, financial condition and management of the acquired company, and upon numerous other factors beyond our control. If the operations, financial condition or management of the acquired company were to be disrupted or otherwise negatively impacted following an acquisition, our company and our Stock price would be negatively impacted.

We may make actions that will not require our stockholders' approval

The terms and conditions of any acquisition could require us to take actions that would not require your approval.  In order to acquire certain companies or assets, we may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock, borrow money or issue debt instruments including debt convertible into capital stock.  Not all of these actions would require your approval even if these actions dilute your economic or voting interest as a shareholder.

Our investigation of potential acquisitions will be limited

Our analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of our executive officers and directors. Inasmuch as we will have limited funds available to search for business opportunities and ventures, we will not be able to expend significant funds on a complete and exhaustive investigation of such business or opportunity. We will, however, investigate, to the extent believed reasonable by our management, such potential business opportunities or ventures by conducting a so-called “due diligence investigation”. In a so-called “due diligence investigation”, we intend to obtain and review materials regarding the business opportunity. Typically such materials will include information regarding a target business’ products, services, contracts, management, ownership, and financial information. In addition, we intend to cause our officers or agents to meet personally with management and key personnel of target businesses, ask questions regarding the company’s prospects, tour facilities, and conduct other reasonable investigation of the target business to the extent of our limited financial resources and management and technical expertise. Any failure of our typical “due diligence investigation” to uncover issues and problems relating to potential acquisition candidates could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We will have only a limited ability to evaluate the directors and management of potential acquisitions

We may make a determination that our current directors and officers should not remain, or should reduce their roles, following money raising or a business combination, based on an assessment of the experience and skill sets of new directors and officers and the management of target businesses. We cannot assure you that our assessment of these individuals will prove to be correct. This could have a negative impact on our company and our Stock price.

We will be dependent on outside advisors to assist us

 In order to supplement the business experience of management, we may employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys or other consultants or advisors. The selection of any such advisors will be made by management and without any control from shareholders. Additionally, it is anticipated that such persons may be engaged by us on an independent basis without a continuing fiduciary or other obligation to us.

We may be unable to protect or enforce the intellectual property rights of any target business that we acquire or the target business may become subject to claims of intellectual property infringement

After completing a business combination, the procurement and protection of trademarks, copyrights, patents, domain names, and trade secrets may be critical to our success. We will likely rely on a combination of copyright, trademark, trade secret laws and contractual restrictions to protect any proprietary technology and rights that we may acquire. Despite our efforts to protect those proprietary technology and rights, we may not be able to prevent misappropriation of those proprietary rights or deter independent development of technologies that compete with the business we acquire. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. It is also possible that third parties may claim we have infringed their patent, trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights. Claims or litigation, with or without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources, either of which could have an adverse effect on our competitive position and business. Further, depending on the target business or businesses that we acquire, it is likely that we will have to protect trademarks, patents, and domain names in an increasing number of jurisdictions, a process that is expensive and may not be successful in every location. These factors could negatively impact our company and the trading price of our Stock.

Integrating acquired businesses may divert our management's attention away from our day-to-day operations and harm our business

Acquisitions generally involve significant risks, including the risk of overvaluation of potential acquisitions and risks in regard to the assimilation of personnel, operations, products, services, technologies, and corporate culture of acquired companies. Dealing with these risks may place a significant burden on our management and other internal resources. This could materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

We may fail to manage our growth effectively

Future growth through acquisitions and organic expansion would place a significant strain on our managerial, operational, technical, training, systems and financial resources. We can give you no assurance that we will be able to manage our expanding operations properly or cost effectively.  A failure to properly and cost-effectively manage our expansion could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

The management of companies we acquire may lose their enthusiasm or entrepreneurship after the sale of their businesses

We can give no assurance that the management of future companies we acquire will have the same level of enthusiasm for the operation of their businesses following their acquisition by us, or if they cease performing services for the acquired businesses that we will be able to install replacement management with the same skill sets and determination. There also is always a risk that management will attempt to reenter the market and possibly seek to recruit some of the former employees of the business, who may continue to be key employees of ours. This could materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

If we are deemed to be an investment company, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete a business combination

We believe we will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act insofar as we will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. However, in the event that we engage in business combinations which result in us holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, we may become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. In such event, we may be required to register as an investment company and may incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the government as to our status under the Investment Company Act, and consequently, any violation of such Act might subject us to material adverse consequences.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO ACCOUNTING AND INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS

We do not currently employ a qualified full time Chief Financial Officer

We do not currently employ a qualified full time Chief Financial Officer.  There is no assurance that we will be able to promptly find and hire such a qualified full time Chief Financial Officer, nor at a compensation level acceptable to us. This could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may be required to record a significant charge to earnings if our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets become impaired

We are required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. We are also required to review goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or between annual tests whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Events and circumstances considered in determining whether the carrying value of amortizable intangible assets and goodwill may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to: significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the use of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; a significant decline in the trading price of our Stock for a sustained period of time; and changes in our business strategy. We may be required to record a significant charge to earnings in a period in which any impairment of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets is determined. Such a charge could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

We may incur liabilities to tax authorities in excess of amounts that have been accrued

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires estimates of the amount of income tax that will become payable in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We may be challenged by the taxing authorities in these jurisdictions and, in the event that we are not able to successfully defend our position, we may incur significant additional income tax liabilities which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition. Such tax liabilities could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

New accounting standards could adversely impact us

From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC and other regulatory bodies may issue new and revised standards, interpretations and other guidance that change Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP). The effects of such changes may include prescribing an accounting method where none had been previously specified, prescribing a single acceptable method of accounting from among several acceptable methods that currently exist, or revoking the acceptability of a current method and replacing it with an entirely different method, among others. Such changes to GAAP could adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition and other financial measures. Such changes could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal financial controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. Any inability to provide reliable financial reports or to prevent fraud could harm our business. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires management to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. In order to continue to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we are required to continuously evaluate and, where appropriate, enhance our policies, procedures and internal controls. In the event that we acquired Cogility, we will be subject together to these internal control procedures and must include an assessment of Cogility’s internal controls no later than one year from the acquisition date. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny and investors could lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports. We cannot assure you that in the future we will be able to fully comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or that management will conclude that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective. A failure to fully comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could materially adversely affect our business and the trading price of our Stock.

Decreased effectiveness of stock options could adversely affect our ability to attract and retain employees

We expect to use stock options as a key component of our employee compensation program in order to align employees’ interests with the interests of our Stockholders, encourage employee retention, and provide competitive compensation packages. Volatility or lack of positive performance in our Stock price may adversely affect our ability to retain key employees or to attract additional highly-qualified personnel. At any given time, a portion of our outstanding employee stock options may have exercise prices in excess of our then-current stock price, or may have expired worthless. To the extent these circumstances occur, our ability to retain employees may be adversely affected. As a result, we may have to incur increased compensation costs, change our equity compensation strategy, or find it difficult to attract, retain and motivate employees. Any of these situations could materially adversely affect our company and the trading price of our Stock.

OTHER PROPOSED ACTIONS

Change of Fiscal Year

Our board of directors adopted resolutions and a majority of our stockholders approved such resolutions to ratify the change of the Corporation’s fiscal year from September 30th  to a December 31st  year end.

Reasons for change of fiscal year

The decision to change the fiscal year end to coincide with the calendar year end was driven by a desire to coincide with the calendar, to contain costs and align the Corporation’s reporting cycle with its peers in the marketplace. The Corporation has filed an annual report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 and its next annual report on Form 10-K will be for the year ending on December 31, 2010.

RESOLUTION NO. 1
INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED STOCK

WHEREAS, the stockholders have been presented with the recommendation to authorize the Corporation’s Board of Directors to amend the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to increase the Corporation’s authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from 50,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares (the “Authorized Increase”); and

RESOLUTION NO. 4
ACQUISITION OF COGILITY SOFTWARE CORPORATION

WHEREAS, the stockholders have been presented with the recommendation to approve the Corporation’s acquisition of Cogility Software Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Cogility"), through a to be formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation via a "reverse merger" (the "Merger"), pursuant to which Cogility would be merged with and into a wholly-owned single purpose merger subsidiary of the Corporation, with Cogility being the survivor of the Merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation; and

WHEREAS, Cogility is a developer of Model-Driven Complex Event Processing software technology for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities and private sector corporations which have complex information management requirements (www.cogility.com); and

WHEREAS, the approximate terms of the Merger, as negotiated and approved by the independent members of the Corporation's Board of Directors, would be as follows:

(i) the 11,530,493 outstanding shares of common stock of Cogility ("Cogility Stock") would be exchanged for an aggregate of 2,175,564 post 1 for 20 reverse split shares of the Corporation's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Acquired Sales Stock"), which would result in Cogility's current stockholders owning approximately 88.2% of the Acquired Sales Stock outstanding following the closing of the Merger (excluding any shares of Acquired Sales Stock that might be issued prior to the closing of the Merger in any capital raise or pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options); and

(ii) the outstanding options to purchase 2,650,000 shares of Cogility Stock with exercise prices between $0.20 - $1.40 per share of Cogility Stock would be exchanged for options to purchase an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Acquired Sales Stock with exercise prices that are 5.3 times higher than their respective exercise prices prior to the Merger but in no event exceeding $5.00 per share of Acquired Sales Stock; and

(iii) the outstanding options to purchase 2,500,000 shares of Cogility Stock with an exercise price of $0.377358 per share of Cogility Stock held by the Corporation's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer would be exchanged for options to purchase an aggregate of 471,698 shares of Acquired Sales Stock with an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Acquired Sales Stock; and

(iv) the outstanding options to purchase 795,000 shares of Cogility Stock with an exercise price of $0.000001 per share of Cogility Stock held by the Corporation's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and by two of the Corporation's directors would be exchanged for options to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Acquired Sales Stock with an exercise price of $0.0000053 per share of Acquired Sales Stock; and

(v) the outstanding Cogility management bonus plan would be eliminated, replaced by the issuance of options to purchase an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of Acquired Sales Stock with an exercise price of $5.00 per share of Acquired Sales Stock, with half of such options to be allocated as of the closing date of the Merger, and the other half of such options to be allocated prior to the first anniversary of the Merger, with the vesting of such options being contingent upon the grantees thereof serving continuously as an employee, director or consultant of or to Cogility from the closing date of the Merger until the third anniversary of the Merger, upon Cogility having earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") of $1 million or more in each of four consecutive full calendar quarters during the first twelve full calendar quarters following the closing of the Merger, and upon such grantees signing a comprehensive waiver and settlement of all claims of any nature against the Corporation, Cogility, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, agents and representatives; and
 

 
 

 

(vi) options to purchase an aggregate of 630,000 shares of Acquired Sales Stock with an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Acquired Sales Stock would be issued to the Corporation's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and to five of the Corporation's directors; and

WHEREAS, the stockholders believe it to be in the best interest of the Corporation to acquire Cogility Software Corporation as described herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the below stockholders hereby authorize the Corporation to acquire Cogility as described herein; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation each are hereby authorized, on behalf of the Corporation, to execute any and all such documents, and to do any and all other things, in connection with the closing of the Merger as either of them may approve, such approval to be conclusively evidenced by his execution or performance thereof; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED FURTHER, that at any time prior to the closing of the Merger, the Board of Directors of the Corporation may abandon such Merger without any further action by the stockholders of the Corporation.


RESOLUTION NO. 5

Statement of Work
June 30, 2009
Modular System Detecting and Alerting Known Patterns in Cached
and Near Real-time data

Goal
Develop, test, integrate, and deploy a modular evidence accrual and contextual pattern matching system capable of leveraging known data patterns stored in an RDF/OWL knowledge-base. The reasoning system should be designed to detect similar or related patterns of activities in cached or near real-time data. The system will consist of automated background processes and algorithms that achieve this objective as well as software interfaces that enable other software systems to: inject data into the system, initiate the evidence accrual process, query the reasoning system with respect to its· status' and/or receive alerts when possible matches are discovered by the system.

Description
The DoD and JC publish a variety of sensor and non-sensor data sources available, via a number of different networks. APL has been tasked by the U.S. government as the prime integrator on a Cognitive Counter-IED Signatures System (C2S2). C2S2 is an intelligence analysis and mission planning information system that will exploit this DoD and IC data.

The offeror shall submit a technical proposal outlining a solution. Technical approaches should focus on addressing the following key issues:
1) Accuracy of the specific algorithmic approach
2) Ability to cope with imperfect input (i.e. inaccuracies).
3) Ability to cope with incomplete input (i.e. partial patterns).
4) Standards based interfaces for batch submission of pattern matching requests and hypothesis/ conclusions.
5) Compatibility with an RDF /OWL reference model containing known patterns of interest
6) Assimilation of new data in real or near real-time. The offeror should provide specific detail and provide examples with metrics that demonstrate an ability to address this issue.
7) Data provenance.
8) Ability to work with temporal characteristics of data.
9) Ability to work with .geospatial characteristics of data.

In addition to providing a point solution th.at specifically addresses this RFP, the offeror will be expected to participate in working· group sessions with a project. architecture team. APL welcomes and encourages creative insight and subject matter expertise contributions. However, in the interest of specific goals and objectives outlined in the RFP, the offeror will not be formally responsible for deliverables relating exclusively to the architecture working group
sessions and technical evaluations.

Phased Engineering and Development Approach
Objectives for the system are broken into two phases. The intent is to guarantee a complete unit of tested and integrated software at the end of each phase.
 
 
 
 

 

 
Phase A objectives
Phase A will develop test and integrate an inexact pattern matching system capable of:
1) Ingesting an RDF graph of data conforming to pre-specified ontology patterns and successfully detecting whole and partial patterns or interest by leveraging a repository of known patterns stored in the C2S2 RD.F reference model.
2) Providing a mechanism for alerting other systems that some patterns of interest have been discovered by the system. The results should be published in RDF format conforming to the system wide RDF/OWL ontology.

Phase B objectives
Phase B will be a follow-on effort to Phase A and develop, test, and. integrate the pattern matching system by:
1) Integrating a more continuous data input model such as a JMS message queue.
2) Enhancing algorithms for more robust handling of input data streams from diverse sources with different levels of reliability. ·
3) Improving scalability and performance
4) Developing and implementing a battery of tests to verify algorithm accuracy,  scalability, and performance across system modifications.

Possib1e follow-on contract objectives
1) Integration with additional algorithms including feature, extraction, multi-hypothesis evaluation, and sensor fusion.
2) Performance optimization;
3) Alternate algorithmic approaches.

Phased Deliverable Evaluation Process
Deliverables will occur once every 30-60 days based on the objectives scoped above, with specific deliverables being defined as the contract progresses. Each deliverable cycle will be constructed around the five-stage process detailed below. Each stage will allow for feedback and modifications to be introduced into upcoming phases of the product development lifecycle.  These steps include:
 
 
 
 

 

 
Stage 1 -Preliminary Design Review
This stage will include a comprehensive review of the preliminary design of the inexact pattern matching system and the discussion with vendor representatives to determine compliance and adequacy of the algorithms to handle the, evidence accrual and contextual analysis of multi-source data models. Additionally, specific requirements and engineering details will be documented and submitted by the subcontractor to APL for approval. No specific functionality should be implemented without approval by APL.
Stage 2 - Overview
Hands-on usage of the system is performed at this stage to verify that the requirements are properly executed. Simple verification is performed to ensure that the product detects the failure conditions; though the handling of the failure conditions is not emphasized,
Stage 3 - In depth Evaluation
In addition to the assessment done at overview, the product is used hands-on to verify the proper handling and resolution of: failure conditions, alternate scenarios and the stated business rules. This verification is ad-hoc because formal acceptance tests have not been developed at this stage.
Stage 4-Acceptance
The acceptance test suite is executed. This involves setting up the data required for the specific scenarios, and using the product to execute the story under test and verify the results. If time, money, and technical considerations permit, the acceptance test suite may be automated to ensure continual compliance as the product evolves.
Stage 5 -·Feedback and Work Modification
After successful. acceptance or acceptance failure, the feedback and work modification step will allow new program objectives and/or work redirections to be-reconciled between the subcontractor and A PL. This step will include phase requirements documentation and validation between the parties.
