We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Summit Software, a Division of Tri-Tel Communications, Inc. which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations, changes in owner’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Summit Software, a Division of Tri-Tel Communications, Inc. as of December 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Other Matter
The financial statements of Summit Software, a Division of Tri-Tel Communications, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are not audited and we express no opinion on those statements.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
Cash
The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The accounts are insured up to $250,000. The balances, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses to date on such accounts and management believes that there is little risk of loss.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables recorded at original invoice amount. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectability of trade receivables are recorded in results of operations for the period in which the estimate is revised. Trade receivables that are deemed uncollectible are offset against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Although Summit’s customers have the right to terminate their subscription contracts under certain conditions, management considers this likelihood to be remote based on the critical enterprise nature of its software and does not record an allowance for such cancellations.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the cost of acquiring a business that exceeds the net fair value ascribed to its identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is tested for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances change, such as a significant adverse change in the economic climate that

would make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized.
Related Party Transactions
Related party advances are loans from Tri-Tel and other affiliates of Tri-Tel’s sole owner, Mr. Robert Cassera (collectively, “Tri-State”). These advances consist of amounts related to Tri-Tel’s acquisition of Summit in 2008, amounts due to Tri-Tel for income taxes and other working capital advances and repayments.
Revenue Recognition
Software and related service revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Multi-year licensing arrangements typically include a perpetual license for current products combined with rights to receive future versions of software products on a when-and-if-available basis and are accounted for as subscriptions, with billings recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue ratably over the billing coverage period. Revenue from certain arrangements that allow for the use of a product or service over a period of time without taking possession of software are also accounted for as subscriptions.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Summit recorded advertising expenses of $305 (audited) and $30,475 (unaudited) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $153 (unaudited) and no expense (unaudited) for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
Summit is included in the tax returns of Tri-Tel. Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with US GAAP as if it was a separate company using the liability method. The liability method provides for an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and measured using the current tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the underlying assets or liabilities are anticipated to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.
US GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination.
Any current liability for income taxes is included in the related party advances liability section of the balance sheet.

Quarters Ended March 31, 2013 (unaudited) and 2012 (unaudited)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions are adequate, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

3. | Concentration of Credit Risk |
No customers accounted for more than 10% of Summit’s revenues for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 or the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012; as a result, management does not believe that the loss of any one customer would have a material business impact.

On May 7, 2013 (the “Acquisition Date”), Tri-Tel entered in to an asset purchase agreement in pursuant to which Corporate Resource Services Group, Inc. (“CRS Group”) acquired Summit. CRS Group’s parent company, Corporate Resource Services, Inc. (“CRS”), was 90.5% owned by Tri-State as of the Acquisition Date.
Because Summit, Tri-Tel and CRS are all controlled by Tri-State and its affiliates, the acquisition is being recorded using the pooling-of-interest method as required under US GAAP for business combinations of entities under common control. Consequently, no goodwill will be recognized and pushed-down upon recording this acquisition, and Summit’s future individual financial statements will reflect its assets and liabilities at their existing recorded amounts.
Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, CRS Group acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities in exchange for 21,000,000 shares of CRS common stock, valued at $0.65 per share, or $13.75 million, the agreed upon value of Summit’s business operations.
Summit did not identify any further subsequent events that required additional disclosure or adjustments in our financial statements through the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
