REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Members of SafeData LLC
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SafeData LLC as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, members’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years then ended. SafeData LLC’s management is responsible for these financial statements. 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 audit 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 audit 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 discl osures 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 SafeData LLC as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Storage revenues consist of monthly charges related to the storage of materials or data (generally on a per unit basis). Sales are generally recorded in the month the service is provided. For customers who are billed on an annual basis, deferred revenue is recorded and amortized over the life of the contract. Setup fees charged in connection with storage contracts are deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the life of the contract. |
| b. | Cash and Equivalents – The Company considers cash equivalents to be highly liquid debt securities with insignificant interest rate risk with original maturities from the date of purchase of three months or less |

| Years |
Computers and Software | 5 |

60;
| e. | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any of these assets may not be realized. No impairment charges have been recorded. |
| f. | Leases – Leases (in which the Company is lessee) which transfer substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership are classified as capital leases, and assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts equal to the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased properties at the beginning of the respective lease terms. Leases which do not meet such criteria are classified as operating leases and the related rentals are charged to expense as incurred on a straight line basis. |
| g. | Advertising – All advertising costs are expensed are incurred. Advertising expense was $128,574 in 2009 and $154,308 in 2008. |
| h. | Use of estimates.

Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| i. | Subsequent events evaluation date – The Company evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to its December 31, 2009 balance sheet date and , in accordance with FASB ASC 855-10-50, “Subsequent Events” through September 30, 2010, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. , The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement on June 17, 2010, setting forth the sale of the Company’s assets to Data Storage Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary Data Storage Corporation.
