Notes to the financial statements

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. (formerly: Golden Hand Resources Inc.) ("Company") was incorporated in the State of Washington on September 22, 2000.

On May 21, 2004, the former major stockholders of the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a group of private investors, who purchased from the former major stockholders 6,880,000 shares of the then issued and outstanding 10,238,000 shares of Common Stock.

On July 8, 2004, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Ramot of Tel Aviv University Ltd. ("Ramot"), an Israeli corporation, to acquire a license 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 disease, based on the acquired technology and research to be conducted and funded by the Company.

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. The Company owns all operational property and equipment.

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

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

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

Since inception, the Company has devoted substantially all 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, "Accounting and reporting by development Stage Enterprises" ASC 915-10 (formerly "SFAS" 7).

In October 2010, the Israeli Ministry of Health granted clearance for a Phase I/II clinical trial using the Company’s autologous NurOwn™ stem cell therapy in patients with ALS, subject to some additional process specifications as well as completion of the sterility validation study for tests performed. This clearance is a significant milestone for the Company and may expedite further fundraisings.

On February 23, 2011, the Company submitted to the MOH the sterility validation study report, as required in the clearance granted by the MOH to the Company in October 2010, for a Phase I/II clinical trial using the Company’s autologous NurOwn™ stem cell therapy in patients with ALS.

In February 2011, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted orphan drug designation to the Company’s NurOwn™ autologous adult stem cell product candidate for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Notes to the financial statements

NOTE 1 - GENERAL (Cont.)

GOING CONCERN

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company’s operations for the three months ended on March 31, 2011, resulted in a net loss of $705. The Company’s balance sheet reflects accumulated deficit of $40,865. These conditions, together with the fact that the Company is a development stage and have no revenues nor that revenues are expected in the near future, 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.

As a result of the past difficulty, to raise sufficient funds, to support all of the Company’s projects, the Company decided to reduce its activity and focus only on the effort to commence clinical trials in ALS amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in 2011. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadassah Medical Centre to conduct clinical trials in up to 26 ALS patients in 2011.

In February 2011, the Company raised approximately $3.8 million from institutional and private investors. However, there can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

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, 2010 are applied consistently in these financial statements.

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 wholly-owned subsidiary as of March 31, 2011 and for the three 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 three months ended March 31, 2011, may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2011.

NOTE 4 - RESEARCH AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

The Company has a Research and License Agreement, as amended and restated, with Ramot. 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 Research and License Agreement and waived all claims against the Company resulting from the Company's previous defaults and non-payment under the Research and License Agreement. The waiver and release amended and restated the original payment schedule under the original agreement providing for payments during the initial research period and additional payments for any extended research period.

NOTE 4 - RESEARCH AND LICENSE AGREEMENT (Cont.)

As of December 24, 2009, the Company had paid to Ramot $400 but did not make payments totaling $240 for the initial research period and payments totaling $380 for the extended research period.

On December 24, 2009, the Company and Ramot entered into a settlement agreement which amended the Research and License Agreement, as amended and restated pursuant to which, among other things, the following matters were agreed upon:

Ramot released the Company from its obligation to fund the extended research period in the total amount of $1,140. Therefore, the Company reversed an expense in 2009, equal to $760, from its research and development expenses that were previously expensed.

Past due amounts of $240 for the initial research period plus interest of $32 owed by the Company to Ramot were converted into 1,120,000 shares of Common Stock on December 30, 2009. Ramot was required to deposit the shares with a broker and only sell the shares in the open market after 185 days from the issuance date.

In the event that the total proceeds generated by sales of the shares on December 31, 2010, together with the March 31, 2010 payment, are less than $240 on or prior to December 31, 2010, then on such date the Company would be required to pay to Ramot the difference between the proceeds that Ramot has received from sales of the shares up to such date together with the September Payment (if any) that has been transferred to Ramot up to such date, and $240. Related compensation in the amount of $51 was recorded as research and development expenses.

In January 2011, Ramot exercised additional 167,530 Common Stock of the Company, for $35, which finalized the sale of the 1,120,000 Common Stock of the Company granted to Ramot for $235. In February 2011, the Company paid the remaining $5 and finalized the balance due to Ramot according to the settlement agreement between the parties dated December 24, 2009.
