POSITRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
SELECTED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1.
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Positron Corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2009. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as reported in the Form 10-K, have been omitted.

In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, management was required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the financial reporting date and throughout the periods being reported upon.  Certain of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and consequently actual results may differ from these estimates.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.  Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-period balances to conform to the current-period presentation.

2.
Accounting Policies

For a summary of significant accounting policies (which have not changed from December 31, 2009), see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Warranty Costs

The Company accrues for the cost of product warranty on the Company’s PET systems and other nuclear imaging devices at the time of shipment.  Warranty periods generally range up to a maximum of one year but may extend for longer periods.  After warranty expiration many customers execute service contracts to cover their systems.  Service contract periods vary with some customers on month to month contracts and others on quarterly and annual contracts.   Revenue collected in advance of the service period is deferred and recognized over the term of the contract. Service costs under the contracts are expensed as incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard which amends guidance on accounting for revenue arrangements involving the delivery of more than one element of goods and/or services. The standard amends the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements and establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The amendments will eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. The standard also significantly expands the disclosures related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable arrangement. The standard is effective on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Alternatively, adoption may be on a retrospective basis, and early application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.


In April 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to provide clarification on the classification of a share-based payment award as either equity or a liability. Under ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, a share-based payment award that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition is required to be classified as a liability. The amendments clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2010, the FASB issued new guidance on the use of the milestone method of recognizing revenue for research and development arrangements under which consideration to be received by the vendor is contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones. The update provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. A vendor can recognize consideration in its entirety as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. Additional disclosures describing the consideration arrangement and the entity’s accounting policy for recognition of such milestone payments are also required. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within such fiscal years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The guidance may be applied prospectively to milestones achieved during the period of adoption or retrospectively for all prior periods. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

3.
Going Concern

Since inception, the Company has expended substantial resources on research and development and sustained  substantial losses. Due to the limited number of systems sold or placed into service each year, revenues have fluctuated significantly from year to year and have not been sufficient to be operationally profitable. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $100,987,000 and a stockholders’ deficit of $5,092,000 at June 30, 2010. The Company will need to increase system sales and apply the research and development advancements to achieve profitability in the future. The Company expects to experience an increase in sales of the Attrius™ Cardiac PET system, additional service agreements and through sales of radiopharmaceutical dose dispensing  systems and recurring revenue from delivery of radiopharmaceuticals with Nuclear Pharm-Assist® systems. Through the Company’s joint venture with Neusoft Medical Systems, PET system material cost of goods and labor costs will be significantly lower. The Company expects that these developments will have a positive impact on the sales and service volumes and increased net margins.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,411,000 at June 30, 2010. At the same date, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2,084,000 June 30, 2010. The secured convertible notes payable of $1,323,000, were in default as of June 30, 2010, but have since been satisfied - see note 9. Working capital requirements for the upcoming year may reach beyond our current cash balances. As the Company executes its plans for expansion it may continue to raise funds as required through equity and debt financing to sustain business operations. However, no assurance can be given will be able to achieve sufficient revenues or raise sufficient funds to sustain business operations.


4.
Deposits – Attrius systems

At June 30, 2010, the Company had $1,149,000 in deposits paid for six Attrius machines for which the Company has pending sales contracts.  Customer deposits represent amounts paid to the Company by customers for devices in advance of manufacturing completion and/or shipment of the device to the customer.  Deposit amounts may vary depending on the contract. The Company recognizes the sales of these systems on a gross basis based on the guidance in ASC 605-45 as the Company is the primary obligor in the arrangement, is involved with the determination of the machine specifications, establishes price, has credit risk, and is responsible for servicing the systems after acceptance by the customer.

8.
Customer Deposits

Customer deposits represent amounts paid to the Company by customers for devices in advance of manufacturing completion and/or shipment of the device to the customer. Deposit amounts may vary depending on the contract. Included in customer deposits at June 30, 2010 were deposits of approximately $669,000 from a customer that had placed an order for five Nuclear Pharm-Assist™ systems. As of the date of this report, there can be no assurance that this customer will fulfill its order for these devices. Accordingly, deposits related to this customer have been reclassified from unearned revenue to customer deposits. Also included in customer deposits at June 30, 2010, are $390,000 of deposits for sales of two Attrius™ Cardiac PET systems. At June 30, 2010, the Company paid $1,149,000 in deposits for six Attrius machines for which the Company has six pending sales contracts as of August 23, 2010.

9.
Notes Payable

Notes payable at December 31 2009 included $540,000 due the former owners of Dose Shield as partial payment for the acquisition made by the Company in June 2008. The note, which was originally due on December 31, 2008, had been extended for one year with an interest rate of 8%. On May 4, 2010, the note plus all accrued interest was satisfied.

10.
Secured Convertible Notes Payable

Pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement, a Security Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Agreements”) dated May 23, 2006, the Company agreed to issue to private investors (the “Investors”) callable secured convertible notes (the “Debentures”) in the amount of $2,000,000, with interest at the rate of 6% annually. The Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock as the product of the “Applicable Percentage” and the average of the lowest three (3) trading prices for the common stock during the twenty (20) day period prior to conversion. Applicable Percentage is 50%; provided, however that the percentage shall be increased to (i) 55% in the event that a Registration Statement is filed within thirty days of the closing of the transaction and (ii) 65% in the event the Registration Statement becomes effective within one hundred and twenty days of the closing of the transaction. The Company filed a Registration Statement on June 20, 2006 that was subsequently withdrawn. The Company may repay principal and interest in cash in the event that the price of the Company’s Common Stock is below $0.20 on the last business day of a month. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements, the Company issued to the Investors warrants to purchase 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. These warrants are exercisable seven (7) years from the closing of the transaction.

On May 23, 2006, the Company issued Debentures in the amount of $700,000 with a maturity date of May 23, 2009. On June 21, 2006 the Company issued Debentures in the amount of $600,000 with a maturity date of June 21, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements, the Company was to issue Debentures and receive the third traunch in the amount of $700,000 when the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Legal and other fees incurred in conjunction with the Debentures issued on May 23, 2006 and June 21, 2006 were $130,000 and $90,000, respectively and are being amortized over the maturity periods of the Debentures. The Company, to satisfy the initial filing requirement, filed a registration statement on behalf of the Investors on June 20, 2006, which was subsequently withdrawn.


As of June 30, 2010, the Company was in default pursuant to the terms of the convertible debentures. The carrying amount of the debentures that is due immediately is $1,323,000 plus all accrued interest of approximately $724,000.

On July 19, 2010, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release with the Investors whereby the Company and the Investors settled any and all claims against each other and all obligations under the Debentures were satisfied in exchange for the payment of $1,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a fair market value of $680,000.  The total settlement value was less than the carrying value of the debt and accrued interest.  As a result, the Company recorded the reduction of debt as other income in the amount of $367,000.

At the respective maturity dates of the debentures, the beneficial conversion features had an estimated fair value of $2,104,000 which is recorded until such time as the debentures are paid in full or converted to common shares pursuant to the terms of the notes.  Upon settlement of the debt, the Company reduced the entire amount of the derivative liability and recognized a derivative gain.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each period and earnings adjusted for preferred stock dividend requirements. Diluted earnings per common share assumes that any dilutive convertible preferred shares outstanding at the beginning of each period were converted at those dates, with related interest, preferred stock dividend requirements and outstanding common shares adjusted accordingly. It also assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock options and warrants for which market price exceeds exercise price, less shares which could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds. The convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 since it would have resulted in an anti-dilutive effect.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (In Thousands, except per share data).

14.
Stock Options

For all of the Company’s stock-based compensation plans, the fair value of each grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Black-Scholes utilizes assumptions related to volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the dividend yield (which is assumed to be zero, as the Company has not paid cash dividends to date and does not currently expect to pay cash dividends) and the expected term of the option. Expected volatilities utilized in the model are based mainly on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price over a period commensurate with the expected life of the share option as well as other factors. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life at the time of grant. Fair market value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was determined using the following assumptions:


Expected life (years)
    4  
Risk free rate of return
    2.5 %
Dividend yield
    0  
Expected volatility
    378 %

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company granted 2,500,000 Series B Preferred stock options to employees with an exercise price of $1.00 per share.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded compensation expense of $2,500,000 related to the preferred stock option grants.

Overview

Positron Corporation is a molecular imaging company focused on nuclear cardiology. Positron utilizes its proprietary product line to provide unique solutions to the Nuclear Medicine community ranging from imaging to radiopharmaceutical distribution. Positron products include: the Attrius™, a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging device; the Pulse™, a Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography (SPECT) imaging device; the Nuclear Pharm-Assist®, an automated radiopharmaceutical distribution device; and the Tech-Assist™, a radiopharmaceutical injection shield. Posi­tron’s SPECT and PET cardiac molecular imaging de­vices are installed in more than 175 hospitals and physician offices around the world; approximately two dozen of them are serviced by the Company. The Company has sold our imaging systems to physician offices, hospitals, and imaging centers primarily in the United States, although we have sold a number of imaging systems internationally. The Company intends to install our radiopharmaceutical delivery systems to physician offices, hospitals, and nuclear pharmacies.


Our Market

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, there are more than 22,000 cardiovascular disease specialists in the U.S. and their number will increase to 31,000 by 2020. This is the target market for our products and services, as well as hospitals in the United States that perform or could perform nuclear cardiac procedures, and radiopharmacies that need to comply with the requirements of USP-797 or want to automate the delivery of radiopharmaceuticals. We are able to offer a total customer solution which includes low cost molecular imaging devices, disease specific software, radiopharmaceutical distribution and delivery systems, and radiopharma­ceutical agents for Cardiac Nuclear Medicine.

General

The Company believes it will experience an increase in sales of its new PET system manufactured by our joint venture, Neusoft Positron Medical Systems based in Shenyang China. Our PET imaging system has been developed to accommodate the growing need by cardiologists for less expensive, high quality molecular imaging devices in today’s challenging economy.  The Attrius™ Cardiac PET system has received the Food and Drug Administration approval in April 2009. The Company believes that the cardiac market for PET is quickly emerging and provides an immediate opportunity to capture significant market share with a low-cost, stand-alone, cardiac optimized PET device. Positron’s technology for PET imaging provides superior image quality with significantly less cost than other PET/CT manufacturers. In addition, Positron offers a software patient management solution to improve patient care, including software by K. Lance Gould, M.D., a world renowned expert of cardiac PET technology.

For the Attrius™ PET, Positron was recognized with the 2010 Frost & Sullivan Award for New Product Innovation in the cardiac molecular imaging devices market. Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that has demonstrated superior performance against key competitors based on the following benchmarking criteria: innovative element of the product; leverage of leading edge technologies; value added features/benefits; increased customer value; and customer acquisition/penetration potential. Frost & Sullivan acknowledge that Attrius™ is the ideal solution for cardiologists and hospitals looking to add high accuracy, cost effective imaging technology.

Our Radiopharmaceutical Products segment expects revenue growth from sales and installations of radiopharmaceutical dose dispensing systems and recurring revenue from the sales and/or delivery of radiopharmaceuticals. We believe that there is an immediate market opportunity for our radiopharmaceutical dose dispensing system with centralized nuclear pharmacies, large hospitals and cardiology practices, many of which are not compliant with the United States Pharmacopeia Chapter 797 compounding regulations which our products offers such compliance. Our Nuclear Pharm-Assist® systems reduce clients’ overhead and the overall radiation exposure of workers, improves the efficiency of the pharmacy & delivery of radiopharmaceuticals and complies with newly enacted sterility requirements. Currently the cardiac drugs for SPECT imaging are prepared at centralized radio­pharmacies where they are substantially marked up.  Our “virtual pharmacy” solution allows placing dose delivery systems into the physician’s offices. Our Nuclear Cardio-Assist™ provides nuclear cardiology departments the ease of “Unit Dose” with the reliability of an “In-House” supply. The Nuclear Cardio-Assist™ automatically elutes a generator, compounds kits, performs quality control, fills a syringe, assays the dose in the syringe and dispenses the dose in the syringe ready for patient injection. The Nuclear Cardio-Assist™ replaces typical “Hot” lab equipment and acts as a “virtual” nuclear pharmacy with “Unit Dose” availability, at the touch of a button, 24/7.

Currently the Company sells its Attrius™ Cardiac PET system to cardiology practices and hospitals and its Nuclear Pharm-Assist® to centralized nuclear pharmacies, large hospitals and cardiology practices. The Company plans to enhance its market position by combining its unique proprietary equipment with an innovative offering of medical devices and radiopharmaceuticals directly to the end customer.

We believe that these initiatives are intended to drive the Company towards consistent profitability and cash flow.

Liquidity and Capital Reserves
 
At June 30, 2010, the Company had current assets of $5,540,000 and current liabilities of $6,648,000 compared to December 31, 2009 when the Company had current assets and current liabilities of $923,000 and $7,947,000, respectively.  Total assets at June 30, 2010 were $5,722,000 compared to $988,000 at December 31, 2009. Total liabilities were $10,814,000 and $7,947,000 at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.   The Company has and will continue to settle payables and other accruals of its closed Canadian facility. In addition, secured convertible debentures of $1,323,000 included in current liabilities were fully satisfied in July 2010.

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2010 were $3,411,000 compared to $165,000 at December 31, 2009. The increase in cash is due in large part to significant equity investments made during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and deposits received for Attrius systems not yet shipped.


Current liabilities at June 30, 2010 include accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,084,000. Customer deposits of $1,059,000 include $390,000 of deposit for one Attrius™ systems and approximately $669,000 from a single customer that had placed an order for five Nuclear Pharm-Assist™ systems.  As of the date of this report, there can be no assurance that this customer will fulfill its order for these devices.  Accordingly, deposits related to this customer have been reclassified from unearned revenue to customer deposits.     Secured convertible debentures of $1,323,000 included in current liabilities were fully satisfied in July 2010. Derivative liabilities related to the convertible debentures and included in current liabilities were $2,104,000 at June 30, 2010.

Net cash used in operating activities was $3,201,000 and $1,017,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities were $132,000 and $7,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company capitalized $92,000 of leasehold improvements for the build out of new office space in Chicago.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6,579,000 and $1,061,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company received $2,944,000 and $50,000 for common stock issued during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company received $4,166,000 and $160,000, respectively, in deposits for equity securities that were issued subsequent to June 30, 20100.  During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company received $925,000 for preferred stock issued.

Since inception, the Company has expended substantial resources on research and development and has sustained substantial losses.  Due to the limited number of systems sold or placed into service each year, revenues have fluctuated significantly from year to year.  The Company had an accumulated deficit of $100,987,000 at June 30, 2010.  The Company will need to increase system sales and service revenue and apply the research and development advancements to achieve profitability in the future. We expect an increase in revenue with sales of the Attrius™ Cardiac PET system and service contracts and sales from radiopharmaceuticals through its dose dispensing systems. The Company expects that these developments will have a positive impact on the sales & service volumes and increase net margins.

The Company's ability to achieve its objectives is dependent on its ability to sustain and enhance its revenue stream and to continue to raise funds through loans, credit and the private placement of restricted securities until such time as the Company achieves profitability. To date, management has been successful in raising cash on an as-needed basis for the continued operations of the Company. There is no guarantee that management will be able to continue to raise needed cash in this fashion.

The Company’s current financial condition raises doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.  The report of the Company’s independent public accountants, which accompanied the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, was qualified with respect to that risk.  If the Company is unable to obtain debt or equity financing to meet its on going cash needs it may have to severely limit or disregard portions of its business plans.

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures at this time. The Company has no “off balance sheet” source of liquidity arrangements.

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company also has not entered into financial instruments to manage and reduce the impact of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, although we may enter into such transactions in the future.

Based upon 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not 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 rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s chief executive and financial officer has determined that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.

The material weaknesses in our disclosure control procedures are as follows:

1.            Lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions. The Company utilizes a third party independent contractor for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third party independent contractor is not involved in the day to day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions.

2.            Audit Committee and Financial Expert. The Company does not have a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

We intend to initiate measures to remediate the identified material weaknesses including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:

·
               Establishing a formal review process of significant accounting transactions that includes participation of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s corporate legal counsel.

·
               Form an Audit Committee that will establish policies and procedures that will provide the Board of Directors a formal review process that will among other things, assure that management controls and procedures are in place and being maintained consistently.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, management is aware that there a significant deficiency and a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and therefore has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2009. The significant deficiency relates to a lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees involvement with general administrative and financial matters.  The material weakness relates to a lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions.

There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.


PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in claims and suits that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Although management currently believes that resolving any such claims against us will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position or results of operations, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. In addition to any such claims and suits, we are involved in the following legal proceedings.

On or about August 11, 2009, the Company accepted service of a Summons and Complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York alleging that the Company breached its obligations to the Investors by failing to pay to the Investors principal and interest on the maturity date, together with all accrued interest on the Debentures and the Company has breached its obligations to convert the principal and accrued interest underlying the Debentures into shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Investors were seeking an amount to be proven at trial, to foreclose on their security interest covering the Company’s assets, plus attorney’s fees.  On September 21, 2009, the Company served its answer to the action, asserting general and affirmative defenses to the Investors’ claims.  On July 29, 2010, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release with the Investors whereby for the payment of $1,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock to the Investors any and all claims were settled, the Company was released by the Investors, the Debentures were satisfied and all obligations to the Investors pursuant to the Debentures and the Securities Purchase Agreements executed therewith were terminated

At June 30, 2010, the Company had $4,166,000 from investors for equity securities that were not yet issued. The amount is recorded as a non-current liability at June 30, 2010.

The sales of the securities identified above were made pursuant to privately negotiated transactions that did not involve a public offering of securities and, accordingly, we believe that these transactions were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D. The agreements executed in connection with this sale contain representations to support the Company’s reasonable belief that the Investor had access to information concerning the Company’s operations and financial condition, the Investor acquired the securities for their own account and not with a view to the distribution thereof in the absence of an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration, and that the Investor are sophisticated within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and are “accredited investors” (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act). In addition, the issuances did not involve any public offering; the Company made no solicitation in connection with the sale other than communications with the Investor; the Company obtained representations from the Investor regarding their investment intent, experience and sophistication; and the Investor either received or had access to adequate information about the Company in order to make an informed investment decision.  All of the foregoing securities are deemed restricted securities for purposes of the Securities Act.
