Curious how Mt. Gox is claiming that they only have ~$37million in assets?

Per their statement:
They claim ~$5million in assets that are currently "Seized by DHS"
They claim ~$5million in assets that coinlab owes them.

However, what about these two wallets that are known to be owned by GOX?

This one contains ~$22.9million USD (40,000 bitcoin)
https://blockchain.info/address/1cXNTyXj4xPGopfYZNY5xfSM1EPJJvBZV

And this one contains ~$28.6million (50,000 bitcoin)
https://blockchain.info/address/1P3S1grZYmcqYDuaEDVDYobJ5Fx85E9fE9

That's close to $60million in assets.

However, wondering if the two wallets above they don't have access to (IE: Lost the private keys?). They obviously aren't the seized DHS funds they referred to in their statement.

Doubtful the keys were lost, since both wallets are now zeroed out.
