BRAINSTORM CELL THERAPEUTICS INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A development stage company)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

A.
On July 8, 2004, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Ramot of Tel Aviv University Ltd. ("Ramot"), an Israeli corporation, to acquire certain stem cell technology (see Note 3). Subsequent to this agreement, the Company decided to focus on the development of novel cell therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's and ALS disease, based on the acquired technology and research to be conducted and funded by the Company.
 
Following the licensing agreement dated July 8, 2004, the management of the Company decided to abandon all old activities related to the sale of the digital data recorder product. The discontinuation of this activity was accounted for under the provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") 144 (ASC 360-10), "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets".

B.
On October 25, 2004, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Ltd. ("BCT").

C.
On November 22, 2004, the Company changed its name from Golden Hand Resources Inc. to Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. to better reflect its new line of business in the development of novel cell therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. BCT owns all operational property and equipment.

D.
In December 2006, the Company changed its state of incorporation from Washington to Delaware.

E.
On September 17, 2006, the Company changed its fiscal year-end from March 31 to December 31.

F.
Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially most of its efforts to research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring assets and raising capital. In addition, the Company has not generated revenues. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage, as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (ASC 915-10), "Accounting and reporting by development Stage Enterprises" ("SFAS No. 7").

GOING CONCERN

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company’s operations for the nine months ended on September 30, 2009, resulted in a net loss of $1,678 and the Company’s balance sheet reflects a net stockholders’ deficiency of $2,568, accumulated deficit of $37,638 and working capital deficiency of $3,177. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue to operate as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue operating as a “going concern” is dependent on several factors, among them is its ability to raise sufficient additional working capital. Management’s plans in this regard include, among others, raising additional cash from current and potential stockholders and lenders.

12

 
BRAINSTORM CELL THERAPEUTICS INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A development stage company)
 
NOTE 1 - GENERAL (Cont.)

GOING CONCERN (Cont.)

Accordingly, as a result of the current economic situation and the difficulty to raise immediate fund to support all of the Company’s projects, the Company decided to reduce its activity and downsize it workforce and focus only on the effort to reach clinical trials in ALS in 2010.

The Company also reduced its general and administrative expenses and stopped some development projects until it is able to obtain sufficient financing. There can be no assurance that sufficient revenues will be generated and that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

The Company depends on Ramot to conduct its research and development activities. As discussed in Note 4, the Company did not make a certain payment in 2008 to Ramot. As a result, the Company did not meet the payment schedule according to the agreement with Ramot and Ramot is entitled to terminate the research and license agreement.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2008, are applied consistently in these financial statements.

Initial Adoption of New Standards

FSP FAS 157-4 (ASC 820)

In April 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 820 FASB staff position 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions that are Not Orderly” (“ASC 820-10-65“). This amendment applies to all assets and liabilities within the scope of accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, except as discussed in ASC 820-15-2. The amendment is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. ASC 820-10-65 relates to determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the objective of fair value measurement, as stated in ASC 820 to reflect how much an asset would be sold for in an orderly transaction (as opposed to a distressed or forced transaction) at the date of the financial statements under current market conditions. Specifically, it reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive.

13

 
BRAINSTORM CELL THERAPEUTICS INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A development stage company)
 
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Initial Adoption of New Standards (Cont.)

The amendment provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability (financial and nonfinancial) when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.

SFAS 165 (ASC 855)

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (SFAS No. 165), “Subsequent Events”. ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for, and disclosure of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  In particular, this statement sets forth: (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.  ASC 855 is effective for the interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.
 
FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 (ASC 320-10-65)

In April 2009 the FASB issued ASC 320-10-65 (FASB staff position 115-2 and 124-2), “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” (“OTTI”) for investment in debt securities. This ASC applies to all entities and is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.
 
Under the ASC, the primary change to the OTTI model for debt securities is the change in focus from an entity’s intent and ability to hold a security until recovery. Instead, an OTTI is triggered if (1) an entity has the intent to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, or (3) it does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. In addition, the ASC changes the presentation of an OTTI in the income statement if the only reason for recognition is a credit loss (i.e., the entity does not expect to recover its entire amortized cost basis). That is, if the entity has the intent to sell the security or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security, the entire impairment (amortized cost basis over fair value) will be recognized in earnings.
 
However, if the entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security, but the security has suffered a credit loss, then the impairment charge will be separated into the credit loss component, which is recorded in earnings, and the remainder of the impairment charge, which is recorded in other comprehensive income. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

SFAS 166 (ASC 860)

In June 2009 the FASB issued ASC 860 (SFAS No.166) “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”. ASC 860  is a revision to Statement ASC 860-10 (Statement No. 140), “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”, and will require more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and continued exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. ASC 860 enhances information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets and a company’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. ASC 860 will be effective at the start of a company’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

SFAS 167 (ASC 810)

In June 2009 the FASB issued ASC 810 (formerly SFAS No. 167) “Amendments to ASC 810-10 (formerly FASB Interpretation No. 46(R))”, which changes the way entities account for securitizations and special-purpose entities. ASC 810 is a revision to ASC 810-10, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, and changes how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. ASC 810 will require a company to provide additional disclosures about its involvement with variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement.   A company will be required to disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity affects the company’s financial statements. ASC 810  will be effective at the start of a company’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

SFAS 168 (ASC 105)

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 (SFAS No.168), “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification’ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. ASC 105 establishes the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (“Codification”), and was officially launched on July 1, 2009, for the purpose of serving as the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative

15

(A development stage company)
 
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Cont.)

U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the form of Accounting Standards Updates that will be included in the Codification. In general, the Codification is not expected to change U.S. GAAP. All other accounting literature excluded from the Codification will be considered non- authoritative. ASC 105 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. Effective September 30, 2009, all references made to GAAP in our consolidated financial statements include the new Codification numbering system along with original references.

NOTE 3 - UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in a condensed format and include the consolidated financial operations of the Company and its fully owned subsidiary as of September 30, 2009 and for the nine months then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States relating to the preparation of financial statements for interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2009.

NOTE 4 - RESEARCH AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

A.
On July 26, 2007, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Research and License Agreement with Ramot. On August 1, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver and release from Ramot pursuant to which Ramot agreed to an amended payment schedule regarding the Company's payment obligations under the Amended Research and License Agreement, dated March 30, 2006, and waived all claims against the Company resulting from the Company's previous defaults and non-payment under the original agreement and the Amended Research and License Agreement. The payments described in the waiver and release covered all payment obligations that were past due and not yet due pursuant to the original agreement. The waiver and release amends and restates the original payment schedule under the original agreement as follows:

Payment date
 
Amount
 
September 5, 2007
    100  
November 20, 2007
    150

BRAINSTORM CELL THERAPEUTICS INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A development stage company)
 
NOTE 4 - RESEARCH AND LICENSE AGREEMENT (Cont.)

In addition, in the event that the "research period," as defined in the Amended Research and License Agreement, is extended for an additional three year period in accordance with the terms of the Amended Research and License Agreement, then the Company is obligated to the following payments to Ramot during the first year of the extended research period:

Payment date
 
Amount
 
August 4, 2008
    60  
November 20, 2008
    150  
February 20, 2009
    170  

If the Company fails to make a payment to Ramot on any required payment date, and the Company does not cure the default within seven business days of notice of the default, all claims of Ramot against the Company, which were waived and released by the waiver and release, may be reinstated.

As of November 13, 2009, the Company paid to Ramot the first three payments totaling $400 but has not made the last two payments of $240 and for the extended research period. As a result, the Company is in breach of the new agreement with Ramot and Ramot may terminate the research and license agreement.

On January 29, 2009, the Company received a breach warning from Ramot and the parties are currently negotiating an amendment to postpone the payments.

B.
The Company's total current obligation to Ramot as of September 30, 2009 is in the amount of $1,057. The amount includes $760 for the extended research period that the Company  is currently negotiating with Ramot.
 
NOTE 5 - CONSULTING AGREEMENTS

A.
On July 8, 2004, the Company entered into two consulting agreements with Prof. Eldad Melamed and Dr. Daniel Offen (together, the "Consultants"), upon which the Consultants shall provide the Company scientific and medical consulting services in consideration for a monthly payment of $6 each. In addition, the Company granted each of the Consultants a fully vested warrant to purchase 1,097,215 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants issued pursuant to the agreement were issued to the Consultants effective as of November 4, 2004. Each of the warrants is exercisable for a seven-year period beginning on November 4, 2005.

B.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company has a total obligation of $334 for services rendered by the Consultants.

NOTE 6 - SHORT-TERM LOANS

On April 13, 2008, the Company entered into a new agreement with a lender which the lender agreed to partially defer and partially convert to the Company’s common stock the payment of $1,250 owed by the Company to the lender based on the payment agreement between the two parties.

Pursuant to the new agreement, the Company agreed to pay $250 of the Debt in accordance with the following schedule:

Payment date
 
Amount
 
May 30, 2008
    50  
July 31, 2008
    50  
September 30, 2008
    50  
December 31, 2008
    50  
February 28, 2009
    50  
 
In addition, the Company issued 2,857,142 shares of common stock to the lender in lieu of the repayment of $1,000 of the Debt.

The lender agreed that upon payment of the foregoing amounts in accordance with the foregoing schedule and the receipt of the stock grant, all of the Company’s outstanding obligations owed to the lender under the notes will be satisfied in full. The lender also waived any breach or default that may have arisen prior to the date of the new agreement from the failure of the Company to make payments to the lender under any of past agreements.

The Company paid to the lender the first payment and on April 6, 2009 the Company and the lender agreed to convert the entire remaining debt of $200 to 2,500,000 restricted shares of common stock.

Since the outcome of the issuance of the shares was to relieve the debtor from its obligation, based on guidance in FASB No 140 (ASC 860-10) “Accounting for Transfer and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities“ the Company derecognized the liability with the difference  recognized in earning.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


This quarterly report contains numerous statements, descriptions, forecasts and projections, regarding Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. and its potential future business operations and performance. These statements, descriptions, forecasts and projections constitute “forward-looking statements,” and as such involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance and achievements to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance and achievements expressed or implied by any such “forward-looking statements.” Some of these are described under “Risk Factors” in this report and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and in our quarterly report on Form10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009. In some cases you can identify such “forward-looking statements” by the use of words like “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “hopes,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “likely,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of any of these terms or similar words. These “forward-looking statements” are based on certain assumptions that we have made as of the date hereof. To the extent these assumptions are not valid, the associated “forward-looking statements” and projections will not be correct. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these “forward-looking statements” are reasonable, we cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. It is routine for our internal projections and expectations to change as the year or each quarter in the year progresses, and therefore it should be clearly understood that the internal projections and beliefs upon which we base our expectations may change prior to the end of each quarter or the year. Although these expectations may change, we may not inform you if they do and we undertake no obligation to do so. We caution investors that our business and financial performance are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties. In evaluating our business, prospective investors should carefully consider the information set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in addition to the other information set forth herein and elsewhere in our other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Company Overview
 
The Company is a leading company developing stem cell therapeutic products based on breakthrough technologies enabling the in-vitro differentiation of bone marrow stem cells to neural-like cells. We aim to become a leader in adult stem cell transplantation for neurodegenerative diseases. Our focus is on utilizing the patient’s own bone marrow stem cells to generate neuron-like cells that may provide an effective treatment initially for ALS, PD and spinal cord injury.

Our core technology was developed in collaboration with prominent neurologist, Prof. Eldad Melamed, the former head of Neurology of the Rabin Medical Center and member of the Scientific Committee of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, and expert cell biologist Prof. Daniel Offen, of the Felsenstein Medical Research Center of Tel Aviv University.
 
33


The Company’s team is among the first to demonstrate creation of neurotrophic-factor secreting cells (glial cells) from in-vitro differentiated bone marrow cells that produce neurotrophic factors (“NTF”) including GDNF, BDNF, NGF and IGF-1.
 
The team is also among the first to have successfully demonstrated release of dopamine from in-vitro differentiated bone marrow cells. Moreover, in research conducted by this team, implantation of these differentiated cells into brains of animal models that had been induced to Parkinsonian behavior markedly improved their symptoms.

Our aim is to provide neural stem cell transplants that (i) “replace” damaged dopaminergic nerve cells and diseased tissue by augmentation with healthy dopamine producing cells and (ii) maintain, preserve and restore the damaged and remaining dopaminergic cells in the patient’s brain, protecting them from further degeneration.
 
The Company holds exclusive worldwide rights to commercialize the technology, through a licensing agreement with Ramot, the technology transfer company of Tel Aviv University. The agreement also provides for further research, funded by Brainstorm, to be performed by Prof. Melamed, Dr. Offen and members of their research team at the Felsenstein Medical Research Center. The results of this research are licensed to us under the terms of the license agreement.
 
We are currently in the developmental stage of our technology and products and we are going to begin the process of seeking regulatory approval from regulatory agencies in the U.S., Israel and Europe. Our efforts are directed at the development of the technology from the lab to the clinic with the following main objectives:
 
·
Developing the cell differentiation process according to Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the European agency for evaluation of medical product (“EMEA”) guidelines;
 
·
Demonstrating safety and efficacy first in animals and then in human patients; and
 
·
Setting up centralized facilities to provide the therapeutic products and services for transplantation in patients.
 
As a result of limited cash resources and the faster path through necessary clinical trials, the Company determined in the forth quarter of 2008 to focus all of its efforts on ALS, and for now will not allocate resources towards PD or other neurodegenerative diseases.  As a result of this new focus, the Company significantly downsized its employee base and employs only scientific employees that meet the Company's immediate goal: to conduct clinical trials in ALS patients in Israel.

Recent developments

On August 18, 2009, we entered into an amendment to the subscription agreement with ACCBT Corp. (the “Amendment”).  Pursuant to the Amendment: (i) ACCBT Corp. agreed to invest the remaining amount under the subscription agreement at a price per share of $0.12 (instead of a price per share of $0.1818) in monthly installments of not less than $50,000 beginning in August 2009; (ii) the exercise price of the final 10,083,334 warrants decreased from $0.36 to $0.29; (iii) the expiration date of all warrants extended from November 5, 2011 to November 5, 2013; and (iv) the purchase price per share of all 27,500,000 shares purchased pursuant to the subscription agreement decreased from $0.1818 to $0.12, which repricing applied retroactively to all shares purchased by ACCBT Corp. prior to the Amendment.  Accordingly, we adjusted the number of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the subscription agreement and issued 9,916,667 shares of common stock to ACCBT Corp.
 
34


During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009, we entered into agreements with Protein Production Services Ltd. (PPS), a leading manufacturing contractor, and with Harlan Biotech Israel Ltd (HBI), a leading Good Laboratory Practice contractor, in order to conduct Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) production of our stem cell therapeutic product in PPS facilities and then complete pre-clinical safety experiments for the Company’s therapy for ALS in HBI laboratory. The agreements will allow us to complete the experiments required to submit an application to the Helsinki Committee with the Israeli Ministry of Health for starting ALS clinical trials in Israel.
 
Results of Operations

The Company has been a development stage company since its inception. For the period from inception (September 22, 2000) until September 30, 2009, the Company has not earned any revenues from operations. The Company does not expect to earn revenues from operations until 2013. In addition, the Company has incurred operating costs and other expenses of approximately $1,678,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and approximately $37,638,000 for the period from inception (September 22, 2000) until September 30, 2009. Operating expenses incurred since inception were approximately $12,572,000 for general and administrative expenses and $22,278,000 for research and development costs.
 
Research and Development, net:

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $774,000 and $1,165,000, respectively. In addition, the Company’s grant from The Office of the Israeli  Chief  Scientist decreased by $400,000 to $58,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from $458,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
Research and development expenses, net, for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $275,000 and $292,000, respectively. In addition, the Company’s grant from The Office of the Israeli Chief Scientist decreased by $145,000 to $18,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $163,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Therefore, the gross research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased by $162,000 to $293,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $455,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

The decrease in gross research and development expenses for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 is primarily due to (i) the decrease in salary expenses due to the downsizing of the employee base in connection with the Company's current financial condition and (ii) the reduction in development activities as the Company decided to delay development activities in PD and other neurodegenerative diseases and focus solely on ALS.

General and Administrative
 
General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $883,000 and $1,428,000, respectively.
 
35


General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $318,000 and $405,000, respectively.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 is primarily due to a reduction in Company  activities due to the Company’s current financial condition.

Financial Expenses

Financial expenses decreased by $232,000 to $21,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from expenses of $253,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
Financial expenses decreased by $3,000 to $28,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $31,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

The decrease in financial expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 is primarily attributable to a decrease in amortization of the discount on short-term convertible loans that were recognized in the first half of 2008 and the exchange differentials derived from the changes in the exchange rate between the New Israeli Shekel to U.S. dollar.
 
Net Loss

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $1,678,000, as compared to a net loss of $2,846,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Net loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $0.03, as compared to a net loss per share of $0.06 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

The weighted average number of shares of common stock used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 58,327,655, compared to 46,958,440 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $621,000, as compared to a net loss of $728,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Net loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $0.01, equal for the three months ended September 30, 2008.
 
The weighted average number of shares of common stock used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was 60,390,796, compared 51,354,951 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

The decrease in the net loss for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 is mainly due to a (i) reduction in Company activities, (ii) downsizing of employees and (iii) amortization of discount on short-term convertible loans.

The increase in the weighted average number of shares of common stock used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was due to (i) the issuance of shares in a private placement, (ii) the conversion of convertible loans, (iii) the exercise of warrants and (iv) the issuance of shares to service providers.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company has financed its operations since inception primarily through private sales of its common stock and warrants and the issuance of convertible promissory notes. At September 30, 2009, we had $95,000 in total current assets and $3,272,000 in total current liabilities.
 
36

 
Net cash used in operating activities was $433,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Cash used for operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily for payment of salaries, material and fees to our employees, consultants, subcontractors and service providers.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $429,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and is primarily attributable to funds received from ACCBT Corp. under a certain subscription agreement.
 
We have a licensing agreement with Ramot under which we owe approximately $95,000 per quarter. In addition, we have an agreement with a lender under which we must pay approximately $25,000 over the next three months and an agreement with a lender of clean room which we need to pay $19,000 per month over the next three months.

Our other material cash needs for the next 12 months will include payment of employee salaries, payments for pre-clinical and clinical trials in ALS, lease payments, payments to Ramot, payments with respect to patents, payment of construction fees for facilities to be used in our research and development, payment of fees to our consultants and legal advisors and capital equipment expenses.

On July 2, 2007, we entered into a subscription agreement with ACCBT Corp., pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue (i) up to 27,500,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate subscription price of up to $5.0 million, and (ii) for no additional consideration, warrants to purchase up to 30,250,000 shares of our common stock. Subject to certain closing conditions, separate closings of the purchase and sale of the shares and the warrants were scheduled to take place from August 30, 2007 through November 15, 2008. To date, we have received an aggregate of approximately $4.05 million from ACCBT Corp.

On August 18, 2009, we entered into an amendment to the subscription agreement with ACCBT Corp. (the “Amendment”).  Pursuant to the Amendment: (i) ACCBT Corp. agreed to invest the remaining amount under the subscription agreement at a price per share of $0.12 (instead of a price per share of $0.1818) in monthly installments of not less than $50,000 beginning in August 2009; (ii) the exercise price of the final 10,083,334 warrants decreased from $0.36 to $0.29; (iii) the expiration date of all warrants extended from November 5, 2011 to November 5, 2013; and (iv) the purchase price per share of all 27,500,000 shares purchased pursuant to the subscription agreement decreased from $0.1818 to $0.12, which repricing applied retroactively to all shares purchased by ACCBT Corp. prior to the Amendment.  Accordingly, we adjusted the number of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the subscription agreement and issued 9,916,667 shares of common stock to ACCBT Corp.

We will need to raise substantial additional capital in order to meet our anticipated expenses. If we are not able to raise substantial additional capital, we may not be able to continue to function as a going concern and we may have to cease operations. Even if we obtain funding sufficient to continue functioning as a going concern, we will be required to raise a substantial amount of capital in the future in order to reach profitability and to complete the commercialization of our products. Our ability to fund these future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the following:
 
·
our ability to obtain funding from third parties, including any future collaborative partners;
 
·
the scope, rate of progress and cost of our pre-clinical and clinical trials and other research and development programs;
 
·
the time and costs required to gain regulatory approvals;
 
37

 
·
the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing and other arrangements that we may establish;
 
·
the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patents, patent applications, patent claims, trademarks and other intellectual property rights;
 
·
the effect of competition and market developments; and
 
·
future pre-clinical and clinical trial results.
 
Critical Accounting Policies 

Our 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 U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate our judgments, estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on the terms of underlying agreements, our expected course of development, historical experience and other factors we believe are reasonable based on the circumstances, the results of which form our management’s basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. For information about critical accounting policies, see the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
  
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

This information has been omitted as the Company qualifies as a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports 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.
 
38


Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Management identified the following material weakness in its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, which continued to exist as of September 30, 2009:
 
 
·
The Company did not maintain effective controls over certain aspects of the financial reporting process because we lacked a sufficient complement of personnel with a level of accounting expertise and an adequate supervisory review structure that is commensurate with the Company’s financial reporting requirements. Specifically, our Chief Financial Officer handles all accounting issues of the Company alone as the Company terminated the Company’s accountant as part of the downsizing of the Company’s employee base.
     
 
· 
Due to the decrease in the Company's activities and limited cash resources, the Company manually inputs all purchase and order activities and confirmation process instead of via an ERP system.

Nevertheless, based on a number of factors, including the performance of additional procedures performed by management designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that the consolidated financial statements included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives
 
Based on financial condition and if we are able to raise sufficient fund to finance it, we plan to recruit new staff and develop policies and procedures for training of personnel or external advisers to verify that we have a sufficient number of personnel with knowledge, experience and training in the application of generally accepted accounting principles commensurate with our financial reporting and U.S. GAAP requirements. Where necessary, we will supplement personnel with qualified external advisors. Additionally, where appropriate, we plan to identify and implement training on accounting principles and procedures that would benefit our accounting and finance personnel.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business, which we consider routine and incidental to our business. We currently are not a party to any material legal proceedings, other than as described in Part I, Item 3, "Legal Proceedings" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and Part II, Item I, "Legal Proceedings" in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation or financial condition.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors previously disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section of (i) our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and (ii) our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009.
