Bill

Actually I didn't miss them - just wanted to make a blanket statement. The letter could have been written by a high schooler - here are a few more demerits - where's the proofreader??? My analogy is like the garmet maker - measure 9 times and cut once to make sure it is right. That's the standard a ceo should use before he executes the letter - it's not like he sends 10 of these a week - more like 3 or 4 a quarter.

FROM THE LETTER:

DAVID'S EXPERIENCE AND RECENT HISTORY WAS A PERFECT MATCH - I THINK THE WORD IS ARE A PERFECT MATCH

David's experience and recent history was a perfect match for our company, as David has been familiar with VirTra Systems for several years now, and he has been increasingly involved in our activities since The Dorato Group assisted us with the leaseholder debt conversion completed in December of 2004. David's previous knowledge of VirTra Systems' history, and close proximity to VirTra Systems' director Andrew Wells and VirTra Merger Corporation's Bo Ritz, made this an easy and obvious selection. His past experience with us has given him the ability to get to work quickly on our day-to-day financial activities, without the need for the routine familiarization period. This ease of transition sealed the deal for us.

We are happy to have him on board, and his first task will be to oversee the completion of our 2005 audit, and to push for a prompt completion of the audits of Altatron and Dynalyst for the forthcoming merger proxy statement.

SO BASICALLY IT WAS KIMBERLY WHO WAS WORKING FOR THE KELLY LAW FIRM IF I RECALL AND DOING THE COMPANY BUDGETS (PROBABLY NOT) AND BOOKKEEPING SO MUCH FOR PREVIOUS FINANCIAL CONTROLS - NO WONDER THE LOSSES HAVE MOUNTED OVER THE YEARS

As many of our long-time shareholders likely already know, this company has grown from just an idea back in the late 1990s, and we have managed our financial affairs in-house, primarily with the able assistance of our corporate secretary, Kimberly Biggs, and our outside accountants. It has well-served our purposes over the years, and has also saved the company a considerable amount of money performing these important tasks in-house. However, as our company has grown, particularly over the past 16 months since the launch of our IVR 4G military simulator, the task of day-to-day financial management has become increasingly burdensome. Moreover, with the imminent acquisition of Virtra Merger Corporation, the increased complexity of integrating these new operations into the accounting mix has now necessitated an experienced professional dedicated to, and responsible for, this vital daily function. Working harder for longer hours could no longer effectively get it all done, and the natural evolution for a public company is to bring in an experienced financial person to oversee this very important aspect of our operation.

I THINK IT IS - ON A PERSONAL LEVEL - SIMPLE BUT CARELESS

On personal level, as CEO of the company, I will find it comforting to have a person of David's professional talent and experience responsible for the financial affairs of the company, and to assist me by signing all of the company's financial reporting to the Securities and Exchange Commission as chief financial officer. WOW GIVES ONE A WARM FEELING ABOUT WHEN THE SEC DOCS WERE SIGNED OFF IN PAST WITH KELLY A LAWYER AND LITTLE OR NO FINANCIAL BACKGROUND

The timing of David's appointment is not coincidental, as we have put him in place in advance of the acquisition's completion to ensure a smooth transition, and to increase the efficiency of keeping VirTra Systems' accounting data accurate, up-to-date, and continuously available as a management tool. We are fully in the process of assembling the post-merger management team, and you will be hearing more from us on that front in the future.

We are now within three weeks of the 10-K annual report, and we are also pushing to finalize and file the proxy statement, so we are currently deep in the SEC reporting phase. However, I am mindful of our obligation to keep you up-to-date with current affairs and corporate developments. VirTra Systems, as well as Altatron and Dynalyst, have been quite busy on with sales and other affairs, and you will be hearing more on those matters soon.

Bill~actually this was filed away as "better late than never" <g>

They have been in NEED of a CFO for a long while... saving pennies to potentially loose dollars

"we have managed our financial affairs in-house, primarily with the able assistance of our corporate secretary, Kimberly Biggs, and our outside accountants. It has well-served our purposes over the years, and has also saved the company a considerable amount of money performing these important tasks in-house.

you missed several other gaffs. This was a letter of a desperate, unfocused and pressured man

Seems you were right in that Kelly is treating this as a done deal (the merger) and I guess our votes won't count in the end... like an election in Iraq <g>

..."mitigation of financially-challenged situations" ? Boy, what an understatement LOL ... I hope he is qualified and not just another "dike" plugging .... how many fingers do they have to count on?

Somehow think this is another way of implying the process is dragging on and on and on...

"his first task will be to oversee the completion of our 2005 audit, and to push for a prompt completion of the audits of Altatron and Dynalyst for the forthcoming merger proxy statement"

It seems the merger is still defined only by the inclusion of Altatron and Dynalyst so I think your original guess as to the "real" numbers will come in pretty close.

Cross your fingers, legs eyes .... lol

best!
