Item 4.02     Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report of Completed Interim Review

On June 18, 2009, we were advised by Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, that the audit opinion dated March 24, 2009 on our December 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements could no longer be relied upon.  We were further advised by Ernst & Young LLP that there were errors in our September 30, 2008 interim consolidated financial statements, in our December 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements and in our March 31, 2009 interim consolidated financial statements.  Based on the foregoing, C. Geoffrey Hampson, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the previously filed consolidated financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2008, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2009, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2009, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2009, should no longer be relied upon due to errors in the consolidated financial statements which include the following:

(i)           Warrants that we issued in conjunction with a financing that we closed on November 19, 2008 should be valued and classified as a liability in our financial statements, rather than as equity.  We believe that this increase to our liabilities will be approximately $187,775.  We originally reported that we believed that the increase to our liabilities would be $90,000.

(ii)           As part of the acquisition of Entity Inc. (“Auctomatic”), we agreed to issue a total of approximately 1,000,000 shares to the former shareholders of Auctomatic.  Of these, 413,604 shares were to be issued to three members of Auctomatic’s management, one third each on the first, second and third anniversaries of the transaction, conditional on the individuals remaining as employees of Live Current Media Inc.  The portion of the fair value of the shares to be issued based on the period of service these individuals provided to us, computed in relation to the period of service required for the individuals to become entitled to the shares, should have been recorded as an expense in 2008 and 2009.

(iii)           As part of the employment agreement signed with our President and Chief Corporate Development Officer that became effective January 1, 2008, we are required to pay him a bonus of CDN $100,000 on January 1, 2009 and CDN $100,000 on January 1, 2010.  These bonuses are to be paid only if he remains an officer of the Company at those dates.  A portion of these bonuses should have been accrued as a liability and recorded as additional compensation expense in our consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2008, December 31, 2008, and March 31, 2009.  

The effects of the above listed adjustments to our consolidated financial statements are illustrated below.
