TABLE OF CONTENTS
EXPLANATORY NOTE
Clearant, Inc., a Delaware corporation (we, us or our), is filing this Amendment No. 2 on
Form 10-KSB/A (this Amendment No. 2) to amend our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2007, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
Commission) on April 1, 2008 (the Original Report) and amended on August 4, 2008. This
Amendment No. 2 is being filed for the purpose of responding to comments received by us from the
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-KSB
filed on August 4, 2008.
As required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the complete text of
Part II, Item 8A has been set forth in this Amendment No. 2, including those portions which have
not been modified from the Original Report. As a result of these modifications, the certifications
pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, filed as exhibits to the Original Report, have been
re-executed and re-filed as of the date of this Amendment No. 2.
Except with respect to our discussion of our conclusion as to the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures as set forth in Part II, Item 8A, we have not modified or updated any of
our prior disclosure from the Original Report, and this Amendment No. 2 does not reflect the
occurrence of any events following the date of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Amendment
No. 2 should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the Securities and Exchange
Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Report, including any amendments to those
filings.
PART II
Item 8A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer who is also our Chief
Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (December 31, 2007), as is
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our
disclosure controls and procedures are intended to ensure that the information we are required to
disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i)
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities
and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as the principal executive and
financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that,
as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures
were not effective solely due to our failure to adequately report such officers conclusion with
respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the Original
Report. Our management has concluded that the financial statements included in this Form 10-KSB
present fairly, in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide
only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In
addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the
likelihood of future events.
Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our
financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
2
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and
expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors,
and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management, with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation
of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in
Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our internal
control over financial reporting was effective.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not
subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only managements report
in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect
our internal control over financial reporting.
