EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
This Form 10-K/A amends Global Axcess Corp.’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Original 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 3, 2010 in response to comments issued by the SEC and to clarify certain prior disclosures.  This Form 10-K/A contains changes to the Cover Page; Part II—Item 9A(T) (Controls and Procedures) and Part IV—Item 15 (Exhibits).

In response to SEC comments, certain exhibits have been re-filed herewith, but the entire exhibit list has been reproduced with information contained therein updated as appropriate.  In addition, Exhibit 10.3 of this Form 10/K-A has been substituted for Exhibit 10.3 in the Original 10-K, which exhibit the Company has concluded was not required to be included in the Original 10-K.  Further, Exhibit 10.6 has been deleted from the exhibit list in this Form 10-K/A as the Company concluded that it was erroneously filed in the Original 10-K.
 
In accordance with Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, currently dated certifications of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are attached to this Form 10-K/A as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, and the text of Exhibits 32.1 and 32.2 have been amended to reflect SEC comments.
 
Except for the foregoing amended information, the Company has not updated the disclosures contained in the Original 10-K to reflect events that have occurred subsequent to the filing date of the Original 10-K.  Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original 10-K and our subsequent filings with the SEC.
 
Part II, Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures.  Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2009.

 
 

 

Disclosure controls and procedures and other procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
