Stinger Systems, Inc., (the “Company”) was unable to meet the March 31, 2009 deadline to file the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2008 (“Form 10-K”) because the Company required additional time to complete its financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Additionally, The Company issued stock options during the fourth quarter of 2008 and the derivative liability expense associated with accounting for financing received during 2008 added to the Company’s loss. The Company was unable to estimate its net loss at this time because it is in the process of finalizing the accounting for the derivative liability expense.
