Business. Background PART I SilverSun Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “SilverSun”), was incorporated on October 3, 2002, as a wholly owned subsidiary of iVoice, Inc. (“iVoice”). On February 11, 2004, the Company was spun off from iVoice, Inc. and became an independent publicly traded company. On September 5, 2003, we changed our corporate name to Trey Resources, Inc. In March 2004, Trey Resources, Inc. began trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin board (the “OTCBB”) under the symbol TYRIA.OB. In June 2011, the Company changed its name to SilverSun Technologies, Inc. The Company is publicly traded and is currently quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) under the symbol “SSNT.” In June 2004, our wholly-owned subsidiary, SWK Technologies, Inc., a New Jersey-based information technology company, completed a merger with SWK, Inc., a value added reseller and master developer for Sage Software’s MAS 90/200/500 financial accounting software as well as the publisher of its own proprietary Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) software, “MAPADOC.” Until its acquisition of SWK, Inc. on June 2, 2004, the Company was engaged in the design, manufacture, and marketing of specialized telecommunication equipment. With the acquisition of SWK and as part of its plan to expand into new markets, the Company transformed into an information technology company, and a value added reseller and master developer for Sage Software’s MAS 90/200/500 and ERP X3 financial and accounting software as well as the publisher of its own proprietary Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) software, “MAPADOC.” The Company focuses on the business software and information technology consulting market, and is looking for other opportunities to grow its business. The Company sells services and products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distributor industry clients located throughout the United States. On June 2, 2006, SWK Technologies, Inc. completed the acquisition of certain assets of AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. of Syracuse, New York. AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. is an information technology company and value added reseller of licensed accounting software published by Sage Software. AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. sold services and products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distribution industry clients located throughout the United States, with special emphasis on companies located in the upstate New York region. Our principal offices and facilities are located at 5 Regent Street, Suite 520, Livingston, NJ 07039 and our telephone number is (973) 758- 9555. The Company is publicly traded and is currently traded on the OTCBB under the symbol “SSNT.” General We are business consultants for small and medium sized businesses and value-added resellers and developers of financial accounting software. We also publish our own proprietary EDI software. We are a leader in marketing financial accounting solutions across a broad spectrum of industries focused on manufacturing and distribution. We specialize in software integration and deployment, programming, and training and technical support, aimed at improving the financial reporting and operational efficiencies of small and medium sized companies. The sale of our financial accounting software is concentrated in the northeastern United States, while our EDI software and programming services are sold to corporations nationwide. We differentiate ourselves from traditional software resellers through our wide range of value-added services, consisting primarily of programming, training, technical support, and other consulting and professional services. We also provide software customization, data migration, business consulting, and implementation assistance for complex design environments. Our strategic focus is to respond to our customers’ requests for interoperability and provide solutions that address broad, enterprise-wide initiatives. Our product sales are cyclical, and increase when the developer of a specific software product offers new versions, promotions or discontinues support of an older product. As is common among software resellers, we purchase our products from our suppliers with a combination of cash and credit extended by the supplier. We do not carry inventory, and generally place an order with the supplier only after receiving a firm commitment from our customer. Except in unusual situations, we do not allow our customers to return merchandise and rarely offer extended payment terms to our customers. Our Products Substantially all of our initial sales of financial accounting solutions consist of prepackaged software and associated services to customers in the United States. Our sales are focused on three major product categories and associated value-added services. 4 Table of Contents Financial Accounting Software The Company resells accounting software published by Sage Software, Inc. (Sage) for the financial accounting requirements of small and medium sized businesses focused on manufacturing and distribution, and the delivery of related services from the sales of these products, including installation, support and training. These product sales are primarily packaged software programs installed on a user workstation, on a local area network server, or in a hosted environment. The programs perform and support a wide variety of functions related to accounting, including financial reporting, accounts payable and accounts receivable, and inventory management. We provide a variety of services along with our financial accounting software sales to assist our customers in maximizing the benefits from these software applications. These services include training, technical support, and professional services. We employ class instructors and have formal, specific training in the topics they are teaching. We can also provide on-site training services that are highly tailored to meet the needs of a particular customer. Our instructors must pass annual subject-matter examinations required by Sage to retain their product-based teaching certifications. We provide end-user technical support services through our support/help desk. Our staff of product and technology consultants assists customers calling with questions about product features, functions, usability issues, and configurations. The support/help desk offers services in a variety of ways, including prepaid services, time and materials billed as utilized and annual support contracts. Customers can communicate with the support/help desk through e-mail, telephone, and fax channels. Standard support/help desk services are offered during normal business hours five days per week. Our professional services include project-focused offerings such as software customization, data migration, and small and medium sized business consulting. We have project managers who provide professional services to our financial accounting customers. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Software We publish our own proprietary EDI software “MAPADOC.” EDI can be used to automate existing processes, to rationalize procedures and reduce costs, and to improve the speed and quality of services. Because EDI necessarily involves business partners, it can be used as a catalyst for gaining efficiencies across organizational boundaries. Our “MAPADOC” EDI solution is a fully integrated EDI solution that provides users of Sage Software’s market-leading MAS family of accounting software products with a feature rich product that is easy to use. “MAPADOC” provides the user with dramatically decreased data entry time, elimination of redundant steps, the lowering of paper and postage costs, the reduction of time spent typing, signing, checking and approving documents and the ability to self-manage EDI and to provide a level of independence that saves time and money. We market our “MAPADOC” solutions to our existing and new small and medium-sized business customers, and through a network of resellers. We have a sales team of technical specialists involved in marketing and supporting sales of the “MAPADOC” product and associated services. Warehouse Management Systems We are resellers of the Warehouse Management System (WMS) software published by Accellos, Inc. Accellos, Inc. develops warehouse management software for mid-market distributors. The primary purpose of a WMS is to control the movement and storage of materials within an operation and process the associated transactions. Directed picking, directed replenishment, and directed put-away are the key to WMS. The detailed setup and processing within a WMS can vary significantly from one software vendor to another. However, the basic WMS will use a combination of item, location, quantity, unit of measure, and order information to determine where to stock, where to pick, and in what sequence to perform these operations. The Accellos WMS software improves accuracy and efficiency, streamlines materials handling, meets retail compliance requirements, and refines inventory control. Accellos also works as part of a complete operational solution by integrating seamlessly with RF hardware, accounting software, shipping systems and warehouse automation equipment. We market the Accellos solution to our existing and new medium-sized business customers. Network Services and Business Consulting We provide network maintenance and service upgrades for our business clients. We are a Microsoft Solutions Provider. Our staff includes engineers who maintain certifications from Microsoft and Sage Software. They are Microsoft Certified Systems Engineers and Microsoft Certified Professionals, and they provide a host of services for our clients, including server implementation, support and assistance, operation and maintenance of large central systems, technical design of network infrastructure, technical troubleshooting for large scale problems, network and server security, and backup, archiving, and storage of data from servers. There are numerous competitors, both larger and smaller, nationally and locally, with whom we compete in this market. 5 Table of Contents Markets Financial Accounting Software. In the financial accounting software market, we focus on providing enterprise solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses (“SMB”) with less than $250 million of annual revenue, primarily in the manufacturing and distribution industries. The SMB market is comprised of thousands of companies within the New York region alone. While several local and regional competitors exist in the various geographic territories where we conduct business, we believe we have a competitive advantage in terms of geographic reach, comprehensive training and support, and the provision of other products and services. We are one of the larger Sage resellers in the United States. While there are numerous national, regional, and local competitors that could be compared to us in scale, size, geographical reach, and target markets for the resale of Sage products, there is no one dominant competitor or dominant group of competitors with whom we compete for contracts or assignments on a regular basis. There are also numerous competitors who publish and/or resell competing product lines, such as Microsoft’s General Dynamics accounting software. Electronic Data Interchange Software. We publish and sell through a network of software resellers our proprietary EDI software, “MAPADOC”. Electronic Data Interchange (“EDI”) is computer-to-computer communication of business documents between companies. It is a paperless way to send and receive Purchase Orders, Invoices, etc. EDI replaces human-readable documents with electronically coded documents. The sending computer creates the document and the receiving computer interprets the document. Implementation of EDI streamlines the process of exchanging standard business transactions. Companies save by eliminating people cost as well as the cost due to errors and double entry of data. The transmissions are accomplished by connecting to a mailbox via a modem or the Internet. The most common mailbox is a Value Added Network's electronic mailbox. Each user, identified by a unique EDI ID, accesses his mailbox to send and receive all EDI transactions. To standardize the documents communicated between many companies, the Transportation Data Coordinating Committee, in 1975, published its first set of standards. EDI standards are formats and protocols that trading partners agree to use when sending and receiving business documents. Around 1979, The American National Standards Institute designated an accredited standards committee for EDI. The standards continue to evolve to address the needs of the member companies. “MAPADOC” complies with all current standards. The market for EDI continues to expand as big box retailers, such as Wal-Mart, Target, and K-Mart, insist their vendors utilize EDI in their business transactions. There are numerous companies with whom we compete in the SMB EDI marketplace, including True Commerce and Kissinger Associates. Warehouse Management Systems. We resell under a distributor agreement the Warehouse Management Solution published by Accellos, Inc. (“Accellos”) Accellos develops warehouse management software (“WMS”) for mid-market distributors. The primary purpose of a WMS is to control the movement and storage of materials within an operation and process the associated transactions. Directed picking, directed replenishment, and directed put away are the key to WMS. The detailed setup and processing within a WMS can vary significantly from one software vendor to another. However the basic WMS will use a combination of item, location, quantity, unit of measure, and order information to determine where to stock, where to pick, and in what sequence to perform these operations. The Accellos warehouse management software improves accuracy and efficiency, streamlines materials handling, meets retail compliance requirements, and refines inventory control. Accellos also works as part of a complete operational solution by integrating seamlessly with RF hardware, accounting software, shipping systems and warehouse automation equipment. The WMS marketplace is extremely competitive. We compete against national, regional, and local resellers, some of which are significantly larger than us. Arrangements with Principal Suppliers Our revenues are primarily derived from the resale of vendor software products and services. These resales are made pursuant to channel sales agreements whereby we are granted authority to purchase and resell the vendor products and services. Under these agreements, we either resell software directly to our customers or act as a sales agent for various vendors and receive commissions for our sales efforts. 6 Table of Contents We are required to enter into an annual Channel Partner Agreement with Sage Software, Inc. (“Sage”) whereby Sage appoints us as a non- exclusive partner to market, distribute, and support MAS 90/200/500 and ERP X3. These agreements authorize us to sell these software products to certain customers in the United States. There are no clauses in this agreement that limit or restrict the services that we can offer to customers. We also operate a Sage Software Authorized Training Center Agreement and also are party to a Master Developers Program License Agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, purchases from one supplier were approximately 58% and 23%, respectively, of the Company’s total cost. Generally, the Company does not rely on any one specific supplier for all of its purchases and maintains relationships with other suppliers that could replace its existing supplier if the need arose. Customers We market our products to private companies throughout the United States. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, our top ten customers had approximately $3,210,574 and $1,488,235 in sales and these represented 31% and 20%, respectively, of our total sales for the period. No single customer accounted for ten percent or more of our consolidated revenues. Generally, we do not rely on any one specific customer for any significant portion of our revenue base. Intellectual Property We regard our technology and other proprietary rights as essential to our business. We rely on copyright, trade secret, confidentiality procedures, contract provisions, and trademark law to protect our technology and intellectual property. We have also entered into confidentiality agreements with our consultants and corporate partners and intend to control access to, and distribution of our products, documentation, and other proprietary information. We own several trademarks registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including “MAPADOC” and have a number of trademark applications pending. We have no patents or patent applications pending. Employees As of December 31, 2011, we had approximately 48 full time employees and one office in Livingston, New Jersey, and one office in Syracuse, New York. Approximately 12 of our employees are engaged in sales and marketing activities and approximately 27 employees are engaged in service fulfillment. Our future success depends in significant part upon the continued services of our key sales, technical, and senior management personnel and our ability to attract and retain highly qualified sales, technical, and managerial personnel. None of our employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. Available information We file electronically with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The public can obtain materials that we file with the SEC through the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov or at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room is available by calling the SEC at 800-SEC-0330. Item 1A. Risk Factors. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this report, in considering our business and prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. The occurrence of any of the following risks could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. Risks Related to Our Business and Industry WE CANNOT ACCURATELY FORECAST OUR FUTURE REVENUES AND OPERATING RESULTS, WHICH MAY FLUCTUATE. 7 Table of Contents Our operating history and the rapidly changing nature of the markets in which we compete make it difficult to accurately forecast our revenues and operating results. Furthermore, we expect our revenues and operating results to fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors, including the following: · the timing of sales of our products and services; · the timing of product implementation, particularly large design projects; · unexpected delays in introducing new products and services; · increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, product development, or administration; · deferral in the recognition of revenue in accordance with applicable accounting principles, due to the time required to complete projects; · the mix of product license and services revenue; and · costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses. WE MAY FAIL TO DEVELOP NEW PRODUCTS, OR MAY INCUR UNEXPECTED EXPENSES OR DELAYS. Although we currently have fully developed products available for sale, we may also develop various new technologies, products and product features and may rely on them to remain competitive. Due to the risks inherent in developing new products and technologies—limited financing, competition, obsolescence, loss of key personnel, and other factors—we may fail to develop these technologies and products, or may experience lengthy and costly delays in doing so. Although we are able to license some of our technologies in their current stage of development, we cannot assure that we will be able to develop new products or enhancements to our existing products in order to remain competitive. BECAUSE OUR FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE, EDI SOFTWARE, AND BUSINESS CONSULTING BUSINESSES ARE STILL EVOLVING, WE MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES THAT COULD PREVENT US FROM BECOMING PROFITABLE. Because our financial accounting software, EDI software, and business consulting businesses are still evolving, we may experience difficulties that could inhibit the development in the new and evolving markets. These difficulties include the following: · substantial delays and expenses related to testing and developing new products; · marketing and distribution problems encountered in connection with our new and existing products and technologies; · competition from larger and more established companies; · delays in reaching our marketing goals; · difficulty in recruiting qualified employees for management and other positions; · lack of sufficient customers, revenues and cash flow; and · limited financial resources. We may continue to face these and other difficulties in the future, some of which may be beyond our control. If we are unable to successfully address these problems, our business will suffer and our stock price could decline. IF OUR TECHNOLOGIES AND PRODUCTS CONTAIN DEFECTS OR OTHERWISE DO NOT WORK AS EXPECTED, WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES IN ATTEMPTING TO CORRECT THESE DEFECTS OR IN DEFENDING LAWSUITS OVER ANY SUCH DEFECTS. Software products are not currently accurate in every instance, and may never be. Furthermore, we could inadvertently release products and technologies that contain defects. In addition, third-party technology that we include in our products could contain defects. We may incur significant expenses to correct such defects. Clients who are not satisfied with our products or services could bring claims against us for substantial damages. Such claims could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and, if successful, could result in the plaintiffs being awarded significant damages. Our payment of any such expenses or damages could prevent us from becoming profitable. 8 Table of Contents OUR SUCCESS IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE AGAINST COMPETITORS THAT HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER RESOURCES THAN WE HAVE. The financial accounting software, EDI software, and business consulting industries are highly competitive, and we believe that this competition will intensify. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, product development and marketing resources, greater name recognition and larger client bases than we do. Our competitors could use these resources to market or develop products or services that are more effective or less costly than any or all of our products or services or that could render any or all of our products or services obsolete. Our competitors could also use their economic strength to influence the market to continue to buy their existing products. IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO PROTECT OUR TRADE SECRETS THROUGH ENFORCEMENT OF OUR CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENTS, THEN WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY AND WE MAY NOT BE PROFITABLE. We attempt to protect our trade secrets, including the processes, concepts, ideas and documentation associated with our technologies, through the use of confidentiality agreements and non-competition agreements with our current employees and with other parties to whom we have divulged such trade secrets. If the employees or other parties breach our confidentiality agreements and non-competition agreements or if these agreements are not sufficient to protect our technology or are found to be unenforceable, our competitors could acquire and use information that we consider to be our trade secrets and we may not be able to compete effectively. Most of our competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing, technical and manufacturing resources than we have, and we may not be profitable if our competitors are also able to take advantage of our trade secrets. WE MAY UNINTENTIONALLY INFRINGE ON THE PROPRIETARY RIGHTS OF OTHERS. Many lawsuits currently are being brought in the software industry alleging violation of intellectual property rights. Although we do not believe that we are infringing on any patent rights, patent holders may claim that we are doing so. Any such claim would likely be time-consuming and expensive to defend, particularly if we are unsuccessful, and could prevent us from selling our products or services. In addition, we may also be forced to enter into costly and burdensome royalty and licensing agreements. OUR PRESIDENT CONTROLS A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK AND HAS SUFFICIENT VOTING POWER TO CONTROL THE VOTE ON SUBSTANTIALLY ALL CORPORATE MATTERS. As of December 31, 2011, Mark Meller, our President, owned approximately 96% of our outstanding shares of our Class A common stock (assuming the conversion of the convertible debenture into shares of Class A common stock). Mr. Meller may be able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership, which is not subject to any voting restrictions, could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay for our Class A common stock. In addition, Mr. Meller is in a position to impede transactions that may be desirable for other stockholders. Mr. Meller’s majority ownership, for example, could make it more difficult for anyone to take control of us. OUR INDUSTRY IS CHARACTERIZED BY RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND FAILURE TO ADAPT OUR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT TO THESE CHANGES MAY CAUSE OUR PRODUCTS TO BECOME OBSOLETE. We participate in a highly dynamic industry characterized by rapid change and uncertainty relating to new and emerging technologies and markets. Future technology or market changes may cause some of our products to become obsolete more quickly than expected. THE TREND TOWARD CONSOLIDATION IN OUR INDUSTRY MAY IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY. As consolidation in the software industry continues, fewer companies dominate particular markets, changing the nature of the market and potentially providing consumers with fewer choices. Also, many of these companies offer a broader range of products than us, ranging from desktop to enterprise solutions. We may not be able to compete effectively against these competitors. Furthermore, we may use strategic acquisitions, as necessary, to acquire technology, people and products for our overall product strategy. The trend toward consolidation in our industry may result in increased competition in acquiring these technologies, people or products, resulting in increased acquisition costs or the inability to acquire the desired technologies, people or products. Any of these changes may have a significant adverse effect on our future revenues and operating results. 9 Table of Contents WE FACE INTENSE PRICE-BASED COMPETITION FOR LICENSING OF OUR PRODUCTS WHICH COULD REDUCE PROFIT MARGINS. Price competition is often intense in the software market. Price competition may continue to increase and become even more significant in the future, resulting in reduced profit margins. IF WE LOSE THE SERVICES OF ANY OF OUR KEY PERSONNEL, INCLUDING OUR CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, OUR BUSINESS MAY SUFFER. We are dependent on Mark Meller, our Chief Executive Officer and our key employees in our operating subsidiary, specifically Jeffrey Roth. The loss of any of our key personnel could materially harm our business because of the cost and time necessary to retain and train a replacement. Such a loss would also divert management attention away from operational issues. In an attempt to minimize the effects of such loss, we presently maintain a $1,000,000 key-man term life insurance policies on Mr. Meller and Mr. Roth. WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will depend on our earnings, if any, and our financial requirements. Risks Related to Our Common Stock OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK IS THINLY TRADED AND WE CANNOT PREDICT THE EXTENT TO WHICH A MORE ACTIVE TRADING MARKET WILL DEVELOP. Our Class A Common Stock is thinly traded compared to larger more widely known companies. Thinly traded Class A Common Stock can be more volatile than common stock trading in an active public market. We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for the Class A Common Stock will develop or be sustained after this offering. IF WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO FUND OUR GROWING OPERATIONS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT CAPITAL AND MAY BE FORCED TO LIMIT THE SCOPE OF OUR OPERATIONS. If adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not be able to continue our marketing efforts and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available to us. In connection with our growth strategies and plan of operation, we may experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products and services by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs. Even if we do find a source of additional capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are acceptable to us. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock. We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us. THE PRICE OF OUR STOCK MAY BE AFFECTED BY A LIMITED TRADING VOLUME AND MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY. There has been a limited public market for our Class A common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for our stock will continue. An absence of an active trading market could adversely affect our stockholders' ability to sell our Class A common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our Class A common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations which could adversely affect the market price of our stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our Class A common stock to fluctuate substantially. 10 Table of Contents OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK IS DEEMED TO BE "PENNY STOCK," WHICH MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES DUE TO SUITABILITY REQUIREMENTS. Our Class A common stock is deemed to be "penny stock" as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These requirements may reduce the potential market for our Class A common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our Class A common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. This could cause our stock price to decline. Penny stocks are stock: · With a price of less than $5.00 per share; · That are not traded on a "recognized" national exchange; · Whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ listed stock must still have a price of not less than $5.00 per share); or · In issuers with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the last three years. Broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks. Moreover, broker/dealers are required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is a suitable investment for a prospective investor. AS AN ISSUER OF “PENNY STOCK,” THE PROTECTION PROVIDED BY THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS RELATING TO FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS DOES NOT APPLY TO US. Although federal securities laws provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, the Company will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any legal action based upon a claim that the material provided by the Company contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of the Company’s failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading. Such an action could hurt our financial condition. FUTURE SALES OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE. The sale of a large number of our shares, or the perception that such a sale may occur, could lower our stock price. Such sales could make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price that we consider appropriate. ISSUANCE OF OUR RESERVED SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK MAY SIGNIFICANTLY DILUTE THE EQUITY INTEREST OF EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS. We have reserved for issuance shares of our Class A common stock upon exercise or conversion of stock options, warrants, or other convertible securities that are presently outstanding. Issuance of these shares will have the effect of diluting the equity interest of our existing stockholders and could have an adverse effect on the market price for our Class A common stock. WE HAVE NOT PAID DIVIDENDS IN THE PAST AND DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. ANY RETURN ON INVESTMENT MAY BE LIMITED TO THE VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK. No cash dividends have been paid on the Company’s common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations and growth. The Company does not expect to pay cash dividends in the near future. Payment of dividends would depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors as the Company’s board of directors may consider relevant. If the Company does not pay dividends, the Company’s common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if the Company’s stock price appreciates. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. Not applicable. 11 Table of Contents Item 2. Description of Property. We do not own any real property for use in our operations or otherwise. Our main offices are at 5 Regent Street, Livingston, NJ 07039 where we have 6,986 square feet of office space at a monthly rent of $7,423. The Company entered into a two-year lease, with a one-year extension, for office space at 6834 Buckley Road, North Syracuse, New York, at a monthly rent of $2,100. We use our facilities to house our corporate headquarters and operations and believe our facilities are suitable for such purpose. We also believe that our insurance coverage adequately covers our interest in our leased space. We have a good relationship with our landlords and believe that these facilities will adequately serve our business purposes for the foreseeable future. Item 3. Legal Proceedings. We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self- regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations includes “forward-looking” statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. We use words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” and “intend” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. You should be aware that actual results may differ materially from our expressed expectations because of risks and uncertainties inherent in future events and you should not rely unduly on these forward looking statements. We will not necessarily update the information in this discussion if any forward-looking statement later turns out to be inaccurate. This discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements included in this filing. Management is uncertain that it can generate sufficient cash to sustain its operations in the next twelve months, or beyond. We can give no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues to be profitable, obtain adequate capital funding or continue as a going concern. December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 Overview In June 2011, the Company changed its name to SilverSun Technologies, Inc. The Company focuses on the business software and information technology consulting market, and is looking to acquire other companies in this industry. SWK Technologies, Inc. (“SWK Technologies”), the Company’s subsidiary and the surviving company from the acquisition and merger with SWK, Inc., is a New Jersey-based information technology company, value added reseller, and master developer of licensed accounting and financial software published by Sage Software. SWK Technologies also publishes its own proprietary supply-chain software, the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) solution “MAPADOC.” SWK Technologies sells services and products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distribution industry clients located throughout the United States, along with network services provided by the Company. On June 2, 2006, SWK Technologies completed the acquisition of certain assets of AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. of Syracuse, New York. AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. is an information technology company and value added reseller of licensed accounting software published by Sage Software. AMP-Best Consulting, Inc. sells services and products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distribution industry clients located throughout the United States, with special emphasis on companies located in the upstate New York region. This year had significant developments that helped change the financial situation of the Company that we hope will provide a basis for our future growth. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. For the year ended December 31, 2011, sales increased 40.5% to $10,522,080 and the Company generated an operating profit of $260,057 as compared to an operating loss of $937,117 for the same period in the prior year; The Company reduced its liabilities by $3,712,550; The Company repaid YA Global and recorded a gain of $1,461,660 on extinguishment of these liabilities. Mr. Mark Meller, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, forgave $1,338,967 in liabilities due him; The Company completed a 1-for-1,811 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock; and The Company negotiated a line of credit with a commercial bank. Revenues All revenues reported by the Company are derived from the sales and service of Sage Software, MAPADOC, and other third-part software products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distribution industry clients located throughout the United States, along with consulting and customer support and network services provided by the Company. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011, increased $3,035,377 (40.5%) to $10,522,080, as compared to $7,486,703 for the year ended December 31, 2010. These sales were all generated by the Company’s operating subsidiary, SWK Technologies. This increase is primarily due to a significant increase in business as a result of strong marketing efforts and competitive pricing as well as the Company’s investment in its Sage ERP X3 practice. The largest increases were for consulting services and software sales. Management continues to focus on marketing and sales across all its product lines. Gross Profit Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2011, increased $1,672,553 (56.7%) to $4,500,116, as compared to $2,872,563, for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the gross profit percentage was 42.8%, as compared to 38.4% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The mix of products being sold by the Company changes from time to time and sometimes causes the overall gross margin percentage to vary. Sales of the larger Sage Software products carry a lower gross margin percentage while consulting revenues generate a higher gross profit. The change in sales mix for the year ended December 31, 2011, resulted in gross profit being higher as a percent of sales as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase is primarily due the increase in consulting revenues. 15 Table of Contents Operating Expenses Total operating expenses increased $415,379(10.9%) to $4,225,059, for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to $3,809,680 for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase is mainly attributed to an increase in general and administrative professional and consulting fees, administrative salaries and marketing expenses. Income (Loss) from Operations Total income from operations was $260,057 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to a loss of $937,117 for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to the aforementioned reasons. Other Income (Expense) Total other income for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $2,433,874, as compared to $368,612 for the year ended December 31, 2010. This change is primarily attributed to the gain on the extinguishment of debt and derivative liability. Net Income (Loss) For year ended December 31, 2011, the Company had net income of $2,708,931, as compared to a net loss of $568,505 for the year ended December 31, 2010. This change is primarily attributed to the improvement in operations and the gain on the extinguishment of debt and derivative liability. Liquidity and Capital Resources We are currently seeking additional operating income opportunities through potential acquisitions or investments. Such acquisitions or investments may consume cash reserves or require additional cash or equity. Our working capital and additional funding requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including: (i) strategic acquisitions or investments; (ii) an increase to current company personnel; (iii) the level of resources that we devote to sales and marketing capabilities; (iv) technological advances; and (v) the activities of competitors. In addition to developing new products, obtaining new customers and increasing sales to existing customers, management plans to increase its business and profitability by entering into collaboration agreements, buying assets, and acquiring companies in the business software and information technology consulting market with solid revenue streams, established customer bases that generate positive cash flow. On December 30, 2005, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with YA Global Investments, L.P (YA Global). Pursuant to such purchase agreement, YA Global purchased $2,359,047 of secured convertible debentures, which are convertible into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. Two such debentures were issued on December 30, 2005 for an aggregate of $1,759,047, interest payable at the rate of 7.5% per annum, and included a debenture was issued on May 6, 2006 equal to $600,000 with interest payable at the rate of 7.5% per annum (the “YA Global Debentures”). On November 9, 2010, the YA Global Convertible Debentures to YA Global were amended with the maturity date being extended to December 31, 2011. This amendment required an initial payment of $175,000 due on January 28, 2011, with additional monthly payments of $10,000 to be made for the following eleven months ending December 1, 2011. The remaining principal and all accrued interest is due on December 31, 2011. This agreement also modified and fixed the conversion price at $.0001, but is also subject to price protection features. The YA Global Debentures are also not convertible during 2011, provided that the payments required by the amended agreement have been made in a timely fashion. During the first three months of 2011, the Company made payments in the amount of $205,000 in accordance with the terms of the amendment. In April 2011, the Company paid YA Global $530,000 to satisfy any and all obligations owed to YA Global, including outstanding principal, accrued interest and liquidated damages. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $1,461,660 and is recorded as other income in the accompanying statement of operations. On April 11, 2011, the Company entered into two promissory notes (each a “Note” and together the “Notes”), each in the face amount of $275,000 (the “Loans”), with two accredited investors. Each Note bears 7% interest and has a maturity date of September 15, 2011. These notes are secured by all of the Company’s assets. As partial consideration for the Loans, the Company issued two shares of Series A convertible preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), one share to be issued to each investor mandatorily convertible into Class A Common Stock equal to 1% of the outstanding common stock at the time of conversion (no later than January 15, 2012). 16 Table of Contents In October the Company negotiated a line of credit from a bank. The agreement included a borrowing base calculation tied to accounts receivable with a maximum availability of $750,000. Interest on outstanding balances is payable daily at an interest rate that is two and three quarter percentage points (2.75%) above the Prime Rate. The Company’s interest rate was 6% at December 31, 2011. The Company paid a $5,000 documentation fee for this loan. The line was collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and is personally guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Executive Office, Mr. Mark Meller. The credit facility required the Company to pay a monitoring fee of 0.315% of eligible collateral to be paid monthly. An annual facility fee equal to one percent (1%) of the Maximum Credit is assessed upon the initial funding, annually thereafter. The term of the agreement is for three years and expires in October 2014. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has no outstanding balance against this line. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a net increase in cash of $129,378. The Company’s principal sources and uses of funds were as follows: Cash used in operating activities The Company provided $905,906 in cash for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to using $38,177 of cash for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily attributed to the increased operating income for the year ended December 31, 2011, and an increase in cash from deferred revenues partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable. Cash used in investing activities Investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 used cash of $40,653, as compared to using $31,725 of cash for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase in cash used is attributed to the increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment. Cash provided by financing activities Financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 used cash of $735,000, as compared to using $126,236 of cash for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase in cash used is primarily attributed to the payoff of YA Global convertible debentures. Critical Accounting Policies The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventory obsolescence, intangible assets, payroll tax obligations, and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified below the accounting policies, revenue recognition and software costs, related to what we believe are most critical to our business operations and are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition or Plan of Operation where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. 17 Table of Contents Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery has occurred, the amount is fixed or determinable, and cash is received. The Company recognizes revenues from consulting and support services as the services are performed. The assessment of collectability is critical in determining whether revenue should be recognized. As part of the revenue recognition process, we determine whether trade receivables are reasonably assured of collection based on various factors. Revenue and related costs are deferred if we are uncertain as to whether the receivable can be collected. Revenue is deferred but costs are recognized when we determine that the collection of the receivable is unlikely. Hardware and software revenues are recognized when the product is shipped to the customer. The Company separates the software component and the professional services component into two distinct parts for purposes of determining revenue recognition. In that situation where both components are present, software sales revenue is recognized when the cash is received and the product is delivered, and professional service revenue is recognized as the service time is incurred. With respect to the sale of software license fees in accordance with GAAP, the Company generally recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists generally evidenced by a signed, written purchase order from the customer, (2) delivery of the software product on Compact Disk (CD) or other means to the customer has occurred, (3) the perpetual license fee is fixed or determinable and (4) collectability, which is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis, is probable. With respect to customer support services, upon the completion of one year from the date of sale, considered to be the warranty period, the Company offers customers an optional annual software maintenance and support agreement for subsequent one-year periods. Sales of purchased maintenance and support agreements are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the respective terms of the agreements. Derivative Liabilities The Company accounts for its embedded conversion features in its convertible debentures in accordance FASB ASC 815-10, which requires a periodic valuation of their fair value and a corresponding recognition of liabilities associated with such derivatives, and FASB ASC 815-40 Section 05, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock. The recognition of derivative liabilities related to the issuance of convertible debt is applied first to the proceeds of such issuance as a debt discount, at the date of issuance, and the excess of derivative liabilities over the proceeds is recognized as “Loss on Valuation of Derivative” in other expense in the accompanying financial statements. Any subsequent increase or decrease in the fair value of the derivative liabilities is recognized as “Other expense” or “Other income”, respectively. The financial statements for the period include the recognition of the derivative liability on the underlying securities issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures with YA Global Investments. Such liability was extinguished in 2011 as a result of the YA Global debenture extinguishment. Accounts receivable The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credits and payments from its customers and maintains provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to receive positive results. 18 Table of Contents Off Balance Sheet Arrangements During fiscal 2011, we did not engage in any material off-balance sheet activities or have any relationships or arrangements with unconsolidated entities established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Further, we have not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities nor do we have any commitment or intent to provide additional funding to any such entities. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities. Item 8. Financial Statements. Our financial statements are contained in pages F-1 through F-23 which appear at the end of this Annual Report. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure. None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. (a) Evaluation of Disclosure and Control Procedures The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure (i) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011, and concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as a whole. 19 Table of Contents (b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance of such reliability and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is 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. Management has conducted, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Accounting Officer, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December31, 2011. Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting used the criteria set forth in SEC Release 33-8810 based on the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on this evaluation, Management concluded that our system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011, based on these criteria. (c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SilverSun Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/Friedman LLP East Hanover, NJ March 29, 2012 F-2 Table of Contents SILVERSUN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business SilverSun Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) is an information technology company, and a value added reseller and master developer for Sage Software’s MAS 90/200/500 and ERP X3 financial and accounting software as well as the publisher of its own proprietary Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) software, “MAPADOC.” The Company focuses on the business software and information technology consulting market, and is looking for other opportunities to grow its business. The Company sells services and products to various end users, manufacturers, wholesalers and distributor industry clients located throughout the United States. In June 2011, the Company changed its name from Trey Resources, Inc. to SilverSun Technologies, Inc. The Company is publicly traded and is currently quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) under the symbol “SSNT.” A 1-for-1,811 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock occurred during the year and has been reflected retro-actively throughout the financial statements. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SilverSun Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its majority owned subsidiaries, SWK Technologies, Inc. and BTSG Acquisition Corp. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter- company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Noncontrolling Interest Noncontrolling interest represents third party ownership in the net assets of our consolidated subsidiaries. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of our majority owned subsidiaries are consolidated with those of our own, with any third party investor’s interest shown as noncontrolling interest. On May 6, 2009, the Company sold twenty-five (25) newly issued shares or 20% of the stock of SWK Technologies, Inc. (“SWK”), a subsidiary of SilverSun Technologies, Inc, for a purchase price of $150,000 to the President of SWK. On January 12, 2012, SilverSun Technologies, Inc. entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Agreement”) with certain shareholders and the President (the “SWK Shareholders”) of SWK Technologies, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the SWK Shareholders exchanged an aggregate of 25 shares of SWK to the Company for a total of 22,664,678 shares (the “Exchange Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (the “Exchange”). These shares had a fair value of approximately $612,000 ($0.027 per share) and will be charged to Additional Paid-in Capital in 2012. Upon consummation of the Exchange, SWK became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. F-8 Table of Contents SILVERSUN TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates include: 1. Revenue recognition of software sales 2. Allowance for doubtful accounts 3. Fair market value of share based payments and other equity instruments Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when products are shipped, or services are rendered, evidence of a contract exists, the price is fixed or reasonably determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The assessment of collectability is critical in determining whether revenue should be recognized. As part of the revenue recognition process, we determine whether trade receivables are reasonably assured of collection based on various factors. Revenue is deferred but costs are recognized when we determine that the collection of the receivable is unlikely. Software and hardware revenues are recognized when the product is shipped to the customer. The Company separates the software component and the professional services component into two parts for purposes of revenue recognition. In that situation where both components are present, software sales revenue is recognized when collectability is reasonably assured and the product is delivered and has stand alone value. Professional service revenue is recognized as the service time is incurred. With respect to customer support services, upon the completion of one year from the date of sale, considered to be the warranty period, the Company offers customers an optional annual software maintenance and support agreement for subsequent one-year periods. Sales of maintenance and support agreements are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the respective terms of the agreements, which typically range from three months to one year. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are classified as revenue, and the shipping and handling costs incurred are included in cost of sales. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents at December 31, 2010 consisted of certificates of deposit with maturities of 3 months or less. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to federally insured limits. At times balances may exceed FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. F-9 Table of Contents SILVERSUN TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Concentration of Credit Risk For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, our top ten customers had approximately $3,211,000 and $1,488,000 in sales and these represented 31% and 20%, respectively, of our total sales for the period. Generally, we do not rely on any one specific customer for any significant portion of our revenue base. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, purchases from one supplier were approximately 58% or 23%, respectively, of the Company’s total cost of revenue. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable and cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2011 the Company believes it has no significant risk related to its concentration of accounts receivable. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable consist primarily of invoices for maintenance and professional services. Payment for software sales are due in advance of ordering from the software supplier. Payments for maintenance and support plan renewals are due before the beginning of the maintenance period. Terms under our professional service agreements are generally 50% due in advance and the balance on completion of the services. The Company maintains an allowance estimated by considering a number of factors, including the length of time the amounts are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the client’s current ability to pay its obligations and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. Inventory Inventory consists primarily of pre-packaged software programs that are held for resale to customers. Cost is determined by specific identification related to the purchase order from the software supplier. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five to seven years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Deferred Revenues Deferred revenues consist of maintenance service, customer support services, including telephone support and deposits for future consulting services which will be earned as services are performed over the contractual or stated period, which generally ranges from three to twelve months.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the assets and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized in income or expense in the period that the change is effective. Tax benefits are recognized when it is probable that the deduction will be sustained. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company files a U.S. federal income tax return as well as returns for various states. The Company’s income taxes have not been examined by any tax authorities for the periods subject to review by such taxing authorities. Uncertain tax positions taken on our tax returns are accounted for as liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no liabilities recorded for uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2011 or 2010. Fair Value Measurement The Company adopted the provisions of the accounting pronouncement which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. Under the provisions of the pronouncement, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The pronouncement establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use on unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is described below: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future net cash flows estimated by the Company to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment losses were identified or recorded in the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s stock-based compensation is measured at the fair value of the award at its grant based on the estimated number of awards expected to vest and is recorded over the applicable period. For stock options, fair value is determined using an option-pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock and the expected dividends on it, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. Earnings per Share The Company’s basic income (loss) per common share is based on net income (loss) for the relevant period, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share is based on net income, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options and warrants to the extent they are dilutive. Diluted loss per share does not include common stock equivalents, as these shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the year ended December 31, 2010, stock warrants to purchase 1,698 shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share calculation due to their anti-dilutive effect. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the dilutive effect of convertible debentures exceeded the number of authorized common shares and as a result weighted average shares outstanding, fully diluted, was the maximum authorized number of common shares. These shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share in 2010 due to their anti-dilutive effect. F-12 Table of Contents SILVERSUN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilitieis for financial accounting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are summarized as follows: Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards Deferred wages and expenses Intangibles Derivative liability Share based payments Other Deferred tax asset Less: Valuation allowance Net deferred tax asset December 31, 2011 December 31, 2010 2,823,000 - 358,000 - 32,000 16,000 3,229,000 (3,229,000) -0- 3,328,000 517,000 401,000 470,000 - 21,000 4,737,000 (4,737,000) -0- As of December 31, 2011, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $7,498,000 that can be utilized to offset future taxable income for Federal income tax purposes. Net operating loss carry forwards expire starting in 2025 through 2030. Utilization of these net loss carry forwards is subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Because of the current uncertainty of realizing the benefit of the tax carry forward, a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit for deferred taxes has been established. During 2011, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Meller waived his rights with respect to the deferred wages and expenses owed to him as of December 31, 2010 and through the period of waiver. The Company recorded the waiver as a capital contribution and recorded the gain through additional paid in capital. The full realization of the tax benefit associated with the carry forward depends predominantly upon the Company's ability to generate taxable income during the carry forward period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes. A reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate to the effective rate is as follows for the period December 31, 2011 and 2010: Federal income tax rate State income tax, net of federal benefit Permanent differences Effective income tax rate Effect on valuation allowance Effective income tax rate F-14 December 31, 2011 December 31, 2010 34% 6% - 40% (40%) 0.0% (34%) (6%) (10%) (50%) 50% 0.0% Table of Contents SILVERSUN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

ASC 740-10 requires that the Company determine whether the benefits of its tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company recognizes the impact of an uncertain income tax position taken on its income tax return at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. There were no significant uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return that would be determined to be an unrecognized tax benefit taken or expected to be taken in a tax return that should have been recorded on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. The federal and state tax returns for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 are currently open and the tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2011 will be filed by October 15, 2012. Despite the Company’s belief that its tax return positions are consistent with applicable tax laws, one or more positions may be challenged by taxing authorities. Settlement of any challenge can result in no change, a complete disallowance, or some partial adjustment reached through negotiations or litigation. Interest and penalties related to income tax matters, if applicable, will be recognized as income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 the Company did not incur any expense related to interest or penalties for income tax matters, and no such amounts were accrued as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. NOTE 5 – DUE TO RELATED PARTIES On September 1, 2010, the Company entered into Amendment No 1 to the Employment Agreement with Mark Meller, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, whereby the term of the Employment Agreement was extended to September 15, 2017.

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER Exhibit 10.19 This Audit Committee Charter was adopted by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Trey Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) on March 30, 2006, and supersedes all prior delegation of authority to the Audit Committee. I. Purpose The purpose of the Audit Committee (the “Committee”) is to assist the Board with its oversight responsibilities regarding: (i) the accounting and financial reporting process of the Company and the audits of the financial statements of the Company; (ii) the integrity of the Company’s financial statements; (iii) the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (iv) the independent auditor’s qualifications and independence; and (v) the performance of the Company’s internal audit function and independent auditor. The Committee shall prepare the report required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement. In addition to the powers and responsibilities expressly delegated to the Committee in this Charter, the Committee may exercise any other powers and carry out any other responsibilities delegated to it by the Board from time to time or required by law and in all instances subject to the applicable provisions of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act (including, without limitation, Section 14A:6-1. thereof). The powers and responsibilities delegated by the Board to the Committee in this Charter or otherwise shall be exercised and carried out by the Committee as it deems appropriate without requirement of Board approval, and any decision made by the Committee (including any decision to exercise or refrain from exercising any of the powers delegated to the Committee hereunder) shall be at the Committee’s sole discretion. While acting within the scope of the powers and responsibilities delegated to it, the Committee shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Committee shall have the power to determine which matters are within the scope of the powers and responsibilities delegated to it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee’s responsibilities are limited to oversight. Management of the Company is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements as well as the Company’s financial reporting process, accounting policies, internal audit function, internal accounting controls and disclosure controls and procedures. The independent auditor is responsible for performing an audit of the Company’s annual financial statements, expressing an opinion as to the conformity of such annual financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles and reviewing the Company’s quarterly financial statements. It is not the responsibility of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company’s financial statements and disclosure are complete and accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and applicable laws, rules and regulations. Each member of the Committee shall be entitled to rely on the integrity of those persons within the Company and of the professionals and experts (including the Company’s internal auditor (or others responsible for the internal audit function, including contracted non-employee or audit or accounting firms engaged to provide internal audit services) (the “internal auditor”) and the Company’s independent auditor) from which the Committee receives information and, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, the accuracy of the financial and other information provided to the Committee by such persons, professionals or experts. Further, auditing literature, particularly Statement of Accounting Standards No. 71, defines the term “review” to include a particular set of required procedures to be undertaken by independent auditors. The members of the Committee are not independent auditors, and the term “review” as used in this Charter is not intended to have that meaning and should not be interpreted to suggest that the Committee members can or should follow the procedures required of auditors performing reviews of financial statements. II. Membership The Committee shall consist of at least two members of the Board; provided, that if at any time there is a vacancy on the Committee and the remaining members meet all membership requirements, then the Committee may consist of those number of members until the earlier of the Company’s next annual stockholders meeting or one year from the occurrence of the vacancy. Each Committee member must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. Members of the Committee are not required to be engaged in the accounting and auditing profession and, consequently, some members may not be expert in financial matters, or in matters involving auditing or accounting. However, at least one member of the Committee shall have past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or any other comparable experience or background which results in the individual’s financial sophistication, including being or having been a chief executive officer, chief financial officer or other senior officer with financial oversight responsibilities. In addition, either at least one member of the Committee shall be an “audit committee financial expert” within the definition adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the Company shall disclose in its periodic reports required pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) the reasons why at least one member of the Committee is not an “audit committee financial expert.” Each Committee member shall satisfy the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act; provided that if a member of the Committee ceases to be independent for reasons outside the member’s reasonable control, then the member may at the discretion of the Board remain on the Committee until the earlier of the Company’s next annual stockholders meeting or one year from the occurrence of the event that caused the member to cease to be independent. The members of the Committee, including the Chair of the Committee, shall be appointed by the Board. Committee members may be removed from the Committee, with or without cause, by the Board. III. Meetings and Procedures 1. The Chair, or in his or her absence, a member designated by the Chair, shall preside at each meeting of the Committee and set the agendas for Committee meetings. The Committee shall have the authority to establish its own rules and procedures for notice and conduct of its meetings so long as they are not inconsistent with any provisions of the Company’s bylaws that are applicable to the Committee. 2. The Committee shall on a periodic basis meet separately with management, with the internal auditor and with the independent auditor. 3. The Committee shall maintain written minutes of its proceedings which shall be submitted to the Board and retained by the Secretary for inclusion in the Company’s records. 4. All non-management directors that are not members of the Committee may attend and observe meetings of the Committee, but shall not participate in any discussion or deliberation unless invited to do so by the Committee, and in any event shall not be entitled to vote. The Committee may, at its discretion, include in its meetings members of the Company’s management, representatives of the independent auditor, the internal auditor, any other financial personnel employed or retained by the Company or any other persons whose presence the Committee believes to be necessary or appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may also exclude from its meetings any persons it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, any non-management director that is not a member of the Committee. 5. The Committee may retain any independent counsel, experts or advisors (accounting, financial or otherwise) that the Committee believes to be necessary or appropriate. The Committee may also utilize the services of the Company’s regular legal counsel or other advisors to the Company. The Company shall provide for appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, for payment of compensation to the independent auditor for the purpose of rendering or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services, for payment of compensation to any advisors employed by the Committee and for ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties. 6. The Committee may conduct or authorize investigations into any matters within the scope of the powers and responsibilities delegated to the Committee. IV. Powers and Responsibilities Interaction with the Independent Auditor 1. Appointment and Oversight. The Committee shall be directly responsible and have sole authority for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of any disagreements between Company management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Company, and the independent auditor shall report directly to the Committee. 2. Pre-Approval of Services. Before the independent auditor is engaged by the Company or its subsidiaries to render audit or non-audit services, the Committee shall pre-approve the engagement in accordance with all applicable legal requirements. Committee pre-approval of audit and non-audit services will not be required if the engagement for the services is entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Committee regarding the Company’s engagement of the independent auditor and the Committee shall be empowered to adopt any and all such policies and procedures as it deems appropriate and in accordance with all applicable legal requirements. The Committee may if it elects delegate to one or more designated members of the Committee the authority to grant pre-approvals as the Committee shall determine appropriate and in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 3. Independence of Independent Auditor. The Committee shall, at least annually, review the independence and quality control procedures of the independent auditor and the experience and qualifications of the independent auditor’s senior personnel that are providing audit services to the Company.

The Committee shall actively engage in a dialogue with the independent auditor with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that, in the view of the Committee, may impact the objectivity and independence of the independent auditor. If the Committee determines that further inquiry is advisable, the Committee shall take appropriate action in response to the independent auditor’s report to satisfy itself of the auditor’s independence. · The Committee shall confirm with the independent auditor that the independent auditor is in compliance with the partner rotation requirements established by the SEC. · The Committee shall, if applicable, consider whether the independent auditor’s provision of other non-audit services to the Company is compatible with maintaining the independence of the independent auditor. · Without limiting the independence requirements generally applicable, procedures shall be implemented to ensure that the independent auditor does not audit his or her own work, does not perform management functions and does not act as an advocate for the Company.
