We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized,
and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure
controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in
designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit
relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions. Based on an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and
Chief Financial Officer (CFO) have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K our disclosure controls and procedures as
defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed
in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2011 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors
regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have
inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement
preparation and presentation.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in 
 issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As part of this evaluation, management established
an internal control project team, engaged outside consultants and adopted a project work plan to document and assess the adequacy of our internal
control over financial reporting, address any control deficiencies that were identified, and to validate through testing that the controls are functioning as
documented. Based on the results of this evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as
of December 31, 2011 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We reviewed the results of management’s assessment with
the Audit Committee of Support.com’s Board of Directors.
