VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
VeriChip Corporation (the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) is a Delaware corporation formed in November 2001. The Company commenced operations in January 2002. On February 14, 2007, the Company completed an initial public offering of its common stock, selling 3,100,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $6.50 per share.
The Company has historically developed, marketed, and sold radio frequency identification (frequently referred to as RFID) systems used for the identification and protection of people in the healthcare market. The Company’s VeriMed Health Link system uses the human-implantable passive RFID microchip that is used in patient identification applications, securely linking a patient to their personal health record as maintained in the Company’s proprietary database. Each implantable Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by the Company’s scanner. In October 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared the Company’s VeriMed Health Link system for use in medical applications in the United States.
On March 5, 2009, the Company established a new division to evaluate clean and alternative energy companies for potential strategic transactions or investment and as a result established a new subsidiary, VeriGreen Energy Corporation. The Company incurred costs of $0.3 million, primarily consisting of transaction costs related to the evaluation of several strategic opportunities and organization costs.
On March 17, 2009, the Company entered into an exclusive development and supply agreement with Medical Components, Inc. (“Medcomp”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will develop and manufacture a new, smaller RFID microchip, and Medcomp will purchase the microchip from the Company for inclusion in Medcomp’s vascular access product lines. The initial term of the agreement is from March 17, 2009 until five years after the later to occur of (i) the microchip being ready for production, or (ii) 510k approval of the microchip by the FDA. The Company will receive a product development fee for the timely development of the new microchip, and Medcomp will have certain minimum purchase requirements during the term of the agreement. If all of the minimum purchase requirements are met, the total value of the contract will exceed $3 million. Additionally, Medcomp will be responsible for obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals for use of the product. Subsequent to March 31, 2009, the Company completed the product development and received the fee relating to the arrangement. The fee, net of incurred expenses, resulted in nominal net cash inflow for the Company.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 (the December 31, 2008, financial information included in this report has been extracted from the Company’s audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2008), and for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. Certain items in the March 31, 2008 periods have been reclassified for comparative purposes.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Included in these estimates are assumptions about allowances for excess inventory, bad debt reserves, lives of long lived assets, lives of intangible assets, assumptions used in Black-Scholes valuation models, estimates of the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the determination of whether any impairment is to be recognized on goodwill or intangibles, among others.
The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Stock-Based Compensation
(tabular information in thousands)
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment, or FAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, stock-based compensation expense is recognized using the fair-value based method for all awards granted on or after the date of adoption. Compensation expense for new awards granted after January 1, 2006 is recognized over the requisite service period based on the grant-date fair value of those options. Prior to adoption, the Company used the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board 25, and related interpretations and provided the disclosure-only provisions of FAS 123. Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation had been recognized in our consolidated statement of operations for options granted to the Company’s employees and directors because the exercise price of such stock options equaled or exceeded the fair market value of the underlying stock on the dates of grant.
The Company recorded compensation expense, related to stock options, of approximately $2 and $123 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
In December 2008, the Company authorized the grant of approximately 518 shares of its restricted common stock to Mr. Caragol, its acting chief financial officer in lieu of salary. The shares vest according to the following schedule: (i) 20% vested on the grant date, and (ii) 80% shall vest on January 1, 2010. In the event of a change in control and if Mr. Caragol is terminated without cause, the shares will immediately vest. The shares are subject to forfeiture in the event Mr. Caragol is terminated for cause. Compensation expense of $146 was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2009 for these shares.
In December 2008, the Company authorized the grant of 602 shares of its restricted common stock to Mr. Silverman, its executive chairman in lieu of salary. If Mr. Silverman remains involved in the day-to-day management of the Company, the shares will vest upon the earlier to occur of: (i) January 1, 2010, or (ii) a change in control of the Company. The shares are subject to forfeiture in the event that Mr. Silverman fails to remain involved in the day-to-day management of the Company. Compensation expense of $55 was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2009 for these shares.
In December 2008, the Company issued 400 shares of its restricted common stock to members of the board of directors, which vest on January 1, 2010. The Company determined the value of the stock to be approximately $100 based on the value of its common stock on the dates of grant. The value of the outstanding restricted stock is being amortized as compensation expense over the vesting period. The Company recorded compensation expense of approximately $36 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 associated with this restricted stock.
Stock-based compensation expense is reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations in selling, general and administrative expense.
The Company’s computation of expected life was determined based on the simplified method. The interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury Yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s comparable companies’ average historical volatility.
2. Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances had been eliminated in consolidation.

On December 16, 2008, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the VeriChip 2007 Plan to include an additional 2.0 million shares that may be granted. As of March 31, 2009, approximately 2.4 million options and shares have been granted. As of March 31, 2009, no SARs have been granted and 0.6 million shares may still be granted under the VeriChip 2007 Plan.
In addition, as of March 31, 2009, options exercisable for approximately 0.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock have been granted outside of the Company’s plans. These options were granted at exercise prices ranging from $0.23 to $8.55 per share, are fully vested and are exercisable for a period of up to seven years.
In the three months ended March 31, 2009, no options were granted under the VeriChip 2007 Plan.

The Black-Scholes model, which the Company used to determine compensation expense, required the Company to make several key judgments including:
    the value of the Company’s common stock;
 
    the expected life of issued stock options;
 
    the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price;
 
    the expected dividend yield to be realized over the life of the stock option; and
 
    the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the stock options.
The Company prepared these estimates based upon its historical experience, the stock price volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies and its best estimation of future conditions.

6. Income Taxes
The Company had an effective tax rate of nil for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. The Company incurred losses before taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. However, its has not recorded a tax benefit for the resulting U.S. net operating loss carryforwards, as the Company has determined that a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets was appropriate based primarily on its historical operating results.
FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (“FIN 48”) was issued to clarify the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes , relating to the recognition of income tax benefits.
FIN 48 provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring tax benefits when the benefits’ realization is uncertain. The first step is to determine whether the benefit is to be recognized, and the second step is to determine the amount to be recognized:
    income tax benefits should be recognized when, based on the technical merits of a tax position, the entity believes that if a dispute arose with the taxing authority and were taken to a court of last resort, it is more likely than not (i.e., a probability of greater than 50 percent) that the tax position would be sustained as filed; and
 
    if a position is determined to be more likely than not of being sustained, the reporting enterprise should recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority.
The implementation of FIN 48 did not result in any adjustment to the Company’s beginning tax positions. The Company continues to fully recognize its tax benefits, which are offset by a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company recognizes any interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits or exposures in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, there was no such interest or penalty.
7. Legal proceedings
The Company is engaged in certain legal actions and management believes that the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results, liquidity or financial position.

Artigliere
On July 8, 2008, a lawsuit was filed against the Company and Digital Angel by Jerome C. Artigliere, a former executive of the Company and Digital Angel. The lawsuit was filed in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, Florida, and alleged that Mr. Artigliere held options to acquire 950,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share and that he was denied the right to exercise those options. The complaint alleged causes of action for breach of contract against the Company and Digital Angel, sought declaratory judgments clarifying Mr. Artigliere’s alleged contractual rights, and sought an injunction enjoining the vote of the stockholders at special meeting of our shareholders that took place on July 17, 2008, on the sale of Xmark. On September 12, 2008, Mr. Artigliere amended his complaint to add a claim for unpaid wages against the Company and Digital Angel and to add related claims against several former officers and directors of the Company and Digital Angel.
On March 3, 2009, the Company entered into a settlement agreement and general release related to the Artigliere lawsuit. Under the settlement agreement, the Company agreed, among other things, to issue shares of its common stock to Mr. Artigliere or his designees valued at $250,000. Additionally, the Company’s obligation under the settlement agreement includes a payment to Mr. Artigliere of $275,000. The Company previously accrued $0.3 million in conjunction with this matter at December 31, 2008. The settlement agreement also contains a confidentiality clause, which if breached could give the Company the ability to reclaim amounts from Plaintiff.
Metro Risk
On January 10, 2005, the Company commenced an action in the Circuit Court for Palm Beach County, Florida, against Metro Risk Management Group, LLC, or Metro Risk. In this suit, the Company has claimed that Metro Risk breached the parties’ three international distribution agreements by failing to meet required minimum purchase obligations and by repudiating the agreements. On July 1, 2005, Metro Risk asserted a counterclaim against the Company for breach of contract and fraud in the inducement. Specifically, in its claim for breach of contract, Metro Risk alleged that the Company breached the exclusivity provision of the parties’ three international distribution agreements by later signing a different distribution agreement with a large distributor of medical supplies. Metro Risk alleged that the distribution agreement with this other distributor included the same areas covered in the Company’s three international distribution agreements with Metro Risk. Moreover, regarding its claim for fraud in the inducement, Metro Risk alleged that the Company fraudulently induced Metro Risk into signing the three international distribution agreements by promising millions of dollars in profits, only later to sign another distribution agreement with a competitor for the same countries. By virtue of its counterclaim, Metro Risk seeks reliance damages in the amount of $155,000, which allegedly represents the amount of money advanced by Metro Risk for the project, lost profits, and attorneys’ fees. On July 23, 2008, the court granted a motion for summary judgment filed by the Company on Metro Risk’s counterclaim, and thus denied Metro Risk’s counterclaim. Metro Risk may appeal the decision. The Court has also previously granted summary judgment on the issue of Metro Risk’s liability for breaching the three international distribution agreements. Therefore, at present, the remaining issue in the lawsuit is the Company’s damages resulting from Metro Risk’s breach of the three international distribution agreements. The parties have taken minimal discovery at the present time. Metro Risk has propounded no discovery on the Company, and the Company has propounded a request for production and a request for admissions on Metro Risk. The parties have not taken any depositions. Given the potential for an appeal, counsel is currently unable to assess the ultimate outcome.
The Company is a party to various legal actions, as either plaintiff or defendant, including the matters identified above, arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and the costs and other effects of pending or future litigation, governmental investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings, whether civil or criminal, settlements, judgments and investigations, claims or charges in any such matters, and developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to it or to its intellectual property rights and intellectual property licenses could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

On October 8, 2008, Steel Vault entered into a sublease with Digital Angel for its corporate headquarters located in Delray Beach, Florida, consisting approximately 7,911 feet of office space, which space the Company shares with Steel Vault. The rent for the entire twenty-one-month term of the sublease is $158,000, which Steel Vault paid in one lump sum upon execution of the sublease. The Company reimbursed Steel Vault for one-half of the sublease payment, representing the Company’s share of the total cost of the sublease. In addition, in order to account for certain shared services and resources, the Company and Steel Vault operate under a shared services agreement, in connection with which Steel Vault currently pays the Company $8,000 a month.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
We have historically developed, marketed, and sold radio frequency identification (frequently referred to as RFID) systems used for the identification and protection of people in the healthcare market. Our VeriMed Health Link system uses the human-implantable passive RFID microchip that is used in patient identification applications, securely linking a patient to their personal health record as maintained in the our proprietary database. Each implantable Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by our scanner. In October 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared our VeriMed Health Link system for use in medical applications in the United States.
Recent Developments
In March 2009, the Company established a new division to evaluate clean and alternative energy companies for potential strategic transactions or investment and as a result established a new subsidiary, VeriGreen Energy Corporation (“VeriGreen”).
On March 17, 2009, we entered into an exclusive development and supply agreement with Medcomp. Pursuant to the agreement, we will develop and manufacture a new, smaller RFID microchip, and Medcomp will purchase the microchip from us for inclusion in Medcomp’s vascular access product lines. The initial term of the agreement is from March 17, 2009 until five years after the later to occur of (i) the microchip being ready for production, or (ii) 510k approval of the microchip by the FDA. We received a product development fee for the timely development of the new microchip, and Medcomp will have certain minimum purchase requirements during the term of the agreement. If all of the minimum purchase requirements are met, the total value of the contract will exceed $3 million. Additionally, Medcomp will be responsible for obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals for use of the product.
We continue to focus on both our healthcare business including our VeriMed Health Link business, and the possible development of the glucose sensing microchip, and strategic opportunities in the clean and alternative energy sectors.
Results of Operations
Through March 31, 2009, we have recorded nominal revenue from sales of our VeriMed Health Link system. Over time, we expect that sales of our VeriMed Health Link system may become a significant part of our revenue, although there can be no assurance that they will.
During 2008 and 2009, we marketed our VeriTrace system, which uses our implantable microchip and wirelessly integrates with a Ricoh ® digital camera for accurate identification of human and associated evidentiary items.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we focused our resources on the process of evaluating the timing and nature of our future investments and expenditures related to our VeriMed Health Link, VeriTrace and VeriGreen businesses. During this time we have undertaken a cost reduction program to maximize the amount of capital that we will have available to pursue business opportunities in the healthcare and energy sectors.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2008
Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $8,000 and $4,000, respectively primarily from the sale of our VeriTrace systems.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of compensation for employees in executive, sales, marketing and operational functions, including finance and accounting, and corporate development. Other significant costs include depreciation and amortization, professional fees for accounting and legal services, consulting fees and facilities costs.
Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $1.9 million to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease was a result of staff reductions and reduction in other overhead costs most significantly in the areas of sales and marketing. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we incurred $0.3 million related to legal settlements and $0.2 million related to transactional costs related to the evaluation of several strategic opportunities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, we incurred stock-based compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2009, unrestricted cash totaled $2.2 million compared to unrestricted cash of approximately $3.2 million at December 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2009, we also had restricted cash of $4.5 million, which supports a twelve month escrow agreement with The Stanley Works, stemming from our sale of Xmark Corporation, our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary. The escrow period expires July 18, 2009.
Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $1.0 million and $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For each of the periods presented, cash was used primarily to fund operating losses, and payments of accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well as cash used to fund discontinued operations.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Investing activities used cash of $4,000 and $72,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which was used to purchase equipment, partially offset in 2008 by cash inflows related to discontinued operations investing activity.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Financing activities provided cash of nil and $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2008, cash of $6.5 million was provided from net borrowings, primarily from an $8.0 million financing, offset by $1.5 million used to pay debt for our discontinued operations. Cash of $5.6 million, net of borrowings of $1.3 million, was paid to Digital Angel in the three months ended March 31, 2008 to repay long term debt.
Financial Condition
As of March 31, 2009, we had working capital of approximately $1.4 million and an accumulated deficit of $43.5 million compared to a working capital of approximately $2.3 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $42.1 million as of December 31, 2008. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to operating losses, described above.
We believe that with the cash we have on hand and the restricted cash, we will have sufficient funds available to cover our cash requirements through the next twelve months.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, SFAS 160 changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented by requiring consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. This statement also establishes a single method of accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation and requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this statement is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirement which shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of SFAS 160 had no impact on the Company’s condensed financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R replaces SFAS Statement No. 141 Business Combinations but retains the fundamental requirements in FASB 141. This statement defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R also requires that an acquirer recognized the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In addition, this statement requires that the acquirer in a business combination achieved in stages to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values. SFAS 141R is applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply the standard before that date. SFAS 141R will be applied prospectively for acquisitions beginning in 2009 or thereafter. The Company expensed $0.2 million of due diligence costs relating to a potential acquisition target during the period ended March 31, 2009.
In May 2008, FASB issued Statement 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts”. This new standard clarifies how FAS Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises , applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises, including the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities. It also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 163 to have any impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a “Smaller Reporting Company,” we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls . We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2009. This evaluation (the “disclosure controls evaluation”) was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the person(s) performing the function of our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and chief financial officer (“CFO”). Rules adopted by the SEC require that in this section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we present the conclusions of the CEO and CFO about the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2009 based on the disclosure controls evaluation.
Objective of Controls. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed so that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.
Conclusion . Based upon the disclosure controls evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of March 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the foregoing objectives are achieved.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The information set forth in Note 7 to the Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item I is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
We have failed to meet applicable Nasdaq Stock Market requirements. As a result, our stock could be delisted by the Nasdaq Stock Market. If delisting occurs, it would adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock and harm our businesses.
On October 21, 2008, we received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that we are not in compliance with the Nasdaq’s requirements for continued listing because, for the 30 consecutive business days prior to October 16, 2008, the bid price of our common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share price requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5450 (the “Rule”) and, our common stock had not maintained a minimum market value of publicly held shares (“MVPHS”) of $5 million as required for continued inclusion by the Rule. On November 17, 2008, we received a notice from Nasdaq indicating that our stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2008 was less than the $10 million in stockholders’ equity required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market under Marketplace Rule 5450(b)(1)(A). In its notice, Nasdaq requested that we provide our plan to achieve and sustain compliance with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Global Market, including the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement, before December 2, 2008, which we complied with. On February 27, 2009, we filed an application to transfer the listing of our common stock from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market.
On March 5, 2009, we received a notice from Nasdaq indicating that we had not evidenced compliance with the $10 million in stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under Marketplace Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), and that we do not currently meet the requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market because our stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2008 of $2.4 million is below the $2.5 million requirement under Marketplace Rule 5550(b). As a result, our securities are subject to delisting. We appealed the Nasdaq staff’s determination and requested an oral hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, which temporarily stayed the delisting of our common stock. Our hearing took place on April 23, 2009 and we expect to receive a determination from the Nasdaq within approximately 30 days regarding whether we can transfer our listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market, based primarily on the $4.5 million deferred gain, expected to be recognized in the next ninety days, currently recorded on our balance sheet resulting from our sale of Xmark in July 2008.
Given the current market conditions, Nasdaq suspended enforcement of the bid price and market value of publicly held shares requirements for all companies listed on Nasdaq through and including Sunday, July 19, 2009. Following the reinstatement of these rules, and in accordance with Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3), we have 180 calendar days from Monday, July 20, 2009, or until January 16, 2010, to regain compliance with the bid price requirement. Following the reinstatement of these rules, and in accordance with Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3), we have 90 calendar days from July 20, 2009, or until October 18, 2009, to regain compliance with the market value requirements. The Nasdaq has extended the suspension of the rules three times in the last twelve months and may decide to extend the suspended bid price and market cap requirements, given current market conditions.
If, at anytime before January 16, 2010, including during the suspension period, the bid price of our common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that we have achieved compliance with the Rule. However, if we do not regain compliance with the Rule by January 16, 2010, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that our securities will be delisted. At that time, we may appeal the Nasdaq staff’s determination to delist our securities to a Listing Qualifications Panel.
If, at anytime before October 18, 2009, the MVPHS of our common stock is $5,000,000 or greater for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive trading days, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that we comply with the Rule. If compliance with the Rule cannot be demonstrated by October 18, 2009, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that our securities will be delisted. At that time, we may appeal the Nasdaq staff’s determination to a Listing Qualifications Panel.

If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market, trading of our common stock most likely will be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities, such as the OTC Bulletin Board. Delisting would adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock and harm our business and may hinder or delay our ability to consummate potential strategic transactions or investments. Such delisting could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations and could result in the loss of confidence by investors, suppliers and employees.
We intend to develop a renewable energy business, a line of business in which we have limited experience, from which we may never recover our investment or realize a profit.
After several months of examining a variety of opportunities in the energy sector, we established a new division to evaluate clean and alternative energy companies for potential strategic transactions or investment and as a result established a new subsidiary, VeriGreen. Following the enactment of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which will invest nearly $79 billion in renewable energy, energy efficiency and green transportation, we intend to invest in clean and alternative energy businesses to complement our existing healthcare initiatives.
We have limited experience in the renewable energy sector. In addition to our capital investment, our management’s focus will also be directed towards this new business. We are presently, and will likely continue to be for some time, able to rely only upon our current management and directors for assistance in executing our business plan. While these individuals are highly experienced in business generally they have limited experience in the renewable energy industry. This lack of experience may hinder our ability to fully implement our business plan in a timely and cost efficient manner, which, in turn, may adversely affect our potential success and profitability. There can be no assurance that we will recover our investment in this new business, that we will realize a profit from this new business or that diverting our management’s attention to this new business will not have an adverse effect on our existing VeriMed Health Link business, any of which results may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Item 5. Other Information.
On May 8, 2009, we, as the sole stockholder of VeriGreen, and the board of directors of VeriGreen approved and adopted the VeriGreen Energy Corporation 2009 Flexible Stock Plan (the “VeriGreen Plan”), under which employees, including officers and directors, and consultants of VeriGreen or an affiliate, including VeriChip, may receive awards. Awards under the VeriGreen Plan include incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and cash awards. The purposes of the VeriGreen Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to employees and consultants, to promote the success of our and VeriGreen’s businesses and to link participants directly to stockholder interests through increased stock ownership in VeriGreen.
The VeriGreen Plan may be administered by the entire VeriGreen board of directors or by a compensation committee of the board of directors (the “Administrator”). Subject to the provisions of the VeriGreen Plan, the Administrator has the power to determine the terms of each award granted, including the exercise price, the number of VeriGreen shares subject to the award and the exercisability thereof.
The aggregate number of shares of VeriGreen common stock that may be subject to awards under the VeriGreen Plan, subject to adjustment upon a change in capitalization, is 3,000,000 shares. Such shares of common stock may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired shares of common stock. Shares of common stock that were subject to VeriGreen Plan awards that expire or become unexercisable without having been exercised in full shall become available for future awards under the VeriGreen Plan.
The foregoing description of the VeriGreen Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the VeriGreen Plan, which are filed with this Quarterly Report as Exhibit 10.3.
Item 6. Exhibits.
We have listed the exhibits by numbers corresponding to the Exhibit Table of Item 601 in Regulation S-K on the Exhibit list attached to this report.
