Re: Reliability Incorporated
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011
Filed March 7, 2012
File No. 000-07092
Dear Mr. Vaughn:
This letter is in response to the comment contained in the Staff’s letter dated October 4, 2012 to Reliability Incorporated (the “Company”). References in this letter to “we”, “our” or “us” refer to the Company.
Form 10-K for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures, page 6
1. We note your disclosures that the evaluation of your disclosure controls and procedures and your internal control over financial reporting was carried out by just your Chief Executive Officer. We further note that the certification filed pursuant to Item 601(b)(31) of Regulation S-K consists of only certification from your Chief Executive Officer. Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K require the evaluation of your disclosure controls and procedures and your internal control over financial reporting to be carried out by both your principal executive and principal financial officers. Further, Item 601(b)(31) of Regulation S-K requires certifications from each of your principal executive and principal financial officers. Please explain to us how you have compiled with these requirements. Discuss how you have evaluated who is your principal financial officer. In this regard, we note your disclosures on page 7 that Mr. Greggory Schneider is your Chief Financial Officer. In this regard, we also note that Mr. Schneider has signed the certification required by Item 601(b)(32) of Regulation S-K.
COMPANY RESPONSE: As a result of a clerical error, we now realize that we mistakenly failed to disclose that the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting was carried out by our Principal Financial Officer in addition to our Principal Executive Officer, and that we also failed to include the certification of our Principal Financial Officer. We are filing concurrently herewith Form 10-K/A which includes revised language in Item 9A and includes the appropriate certifications. Our Chief Financial Officer (Greggory Schneider) is our Principal Financial Officer. He became our Chief Financial Officer as of March 30, 2009 as reported in our Schedule 14F Information Statement filed on April 9, 2009.
