MABCURE INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

(1)           Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation and Organization

MabCure Inc. (“MabCure” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 8, 2006, under the name of Smartec Holdings, Inc. The Company originally was in the business of developing a detergent for removing pesticides from fruits and vegetables. Because the Company was not successful in implementing its business plan, it considered various alternatives to ensure the viability and solvency of the Company. On January 10, 2008, the Company changed its name to MabCure Inc. to better reflect its new business plan. On January 10, 2008, MabCure entered into an asset purchase agreement with Indigoleaf Associates Ltd. (“Indigoleaf”) and Dr. Amnon Gonenne pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase all of Indigoleaf’s interest and rights to a proprietary technology for the rapid and efficient generation of monoclonal antibodies against desired antigens such as cancer markers, including, but not limited to, the know-how, secrets, inventions, practices, methods, knowledge and data owned by Indigoleaf. The Company purchased this proprietary technology pursuant to an intellectual property transfer agreement and consummated the other transactions contemplated by the asset purchase agreement on July 7, 2008. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, as amended on April 2, 2009, the Company issued 25,638,400 shares of its common stock to Indigoleaf in consideration for the purchase of Indigoleaf’s proprietary technology, and the Company issued 6,409,600 shares of common stock to Dr. Gonenne in consideration for being one of the founders of the Company’s cancer therapy and detection business.

On October 30, 2008, the Company established MabCure, N.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary in Belgium. The Belgian subsidiary was established in order to accelerate the development and commercialization of MabCure’s proprietary products for the early detection of cancer with specific antibodies and for the creation of highly specific therapeutics (antibodies and novel drugs) against cancer.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments, consisting only of those of a recurring nature, and disclosures to present fairly the Company's financial position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The balance sheet at December 31, 2010 was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 (the “Form 10-K”), filed on April 15, 2011.

     Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned Belgian subsidiary, MabCure, N.V. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting within the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

     Property and equipment

Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 totaled $11,266 and $11,020, respectively.

     Deferred Offering Costs

The Company defers the direct incremental costs of raising capital until such time as the offering is completed. At the time of the completion of the offering, the costs are charged against the capital raised. Should the offering be terminated, deferred offering costs are charged to operations during the period in which the offering is terminated. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company offset against additional paid-in capital previously capitalized deferred offering costs totaling $20,663 for a transaction that was consummated in January 2011. See Note 4 for additional information.

     Impairment of Intellectual Property

The purchase of intellectual property from Indigoleaf was accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350. We believe that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, or economic factors that limit the useful life of this intangible asset. Consequently, we consider the useful life of this asset to be indefinite and we have recorded no amortization expense. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, we perform, at least annually, impairment testing in the last quarter of the year. See Note 3 below for a further discussion.

     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining lives at each balance sheet date. The Company records an impairment or change in useful life whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or the useful life has changed. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2010, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets was required.

     Derivative Instruments

In connection with the sale of debt or equity instruments, we may sell options or warrants to purchase our common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as derivative liabilities, rather than as equity. Additionally, the debt or equity instruments may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument asset or liability.

Derivative instruments are re-valued at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the fair value recorded as charges or credits to income, in the period in which the changes occur. We determine the fair value of these instruments using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. That model requires assumptions related to the remaining term of the instruments and risk-free rates of return, our current common stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our common stock price over the life of the option. The identification of, and accounting for, derivative instruments and the assumptions used to value them can significantly affect our financial statements.

     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximated fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

     Foreign Currency Translation

MabCure accounts for foreign currency translation pursuant to ASC Topic 830. The functional currency of the Company’s Belgian subsidiary is the euro. Under ASC Topic 830, all assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the end of each fiscal period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the respective periods. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the period. Certain transactions of the Company’s Belgian subsidiary are denominated in United States dollars. Translation gains or losses related to such transactions are recognized for each reporting period in the related interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss).

     Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

In accordance with ASC Topic 260, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similarly to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Due to net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011and 2010, diluted loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and excludes the effects of potential common stock shares that are anti-dilutive. The potential shares of common stock that have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation above for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

7



    March 31,  
    2011     2010  
Stock options   660,000     540,000  
Warrants   5,300,000     5,300,000  

     Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topics 505 and 718. Stock-based compensation for stock options is measured based on the estimated fair value of each award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Stock-based compensation for restricted shares is measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company's common stock price on the date of grate. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs as expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

The allocation of stock-based compensation expense by functional area for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was as follows:

    Three Months Ended March 31,  
    2011     2010  
Research and development $ 6,356   $ 6,356  
General and administrative   24,758     41,090  
Total $ 31,114   $ 47,446  

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC Topic 505.

     Reclassification

Certain 2010 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation.

(2)           Development Stage Activities and Going Concern

The Company is currently in the development stage. The original business plan of the Company was to develop a detergent for removing pesticides from fruits and vegetables. However, the Company has changed its business plan to develop and commercialize its proprietary antibody technology for the early detection of cancer and for the creation of highly specific therapeutics (antibodies and novel drugs) against cancer.

Given the current pace of clinical development of our products, and until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, the Company estimates that it has sufficient cash on hand to fund clinical development only through the second quarter of 2011. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding, until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, by obtaining bridge financing in the form of convertible debt.

While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital, or be successful in the development and commercialization of its proprietary antibody technology for the early detection of cancer or for the creation of highly specific therapeutics (antibodies and novel drugs) against cancer that will generate sufficient revenues to sustain the operations of the Company.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not established any source of revenues to cover its operating costs, and as such, has incurred an operating loss since inception. Further, as of March 31, 2011, the cash resources of the Company were insufficient to meet its current business plan. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

(3)           Purchase of Intellectual Property and Stock Issuance to Founder

On January 10, 2008, MabCure entered into an asset purchase agreement with Indigoleaf and Dr. Amnon Gonenne pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase all of Indigoleaf’s interest and rights to a proprietary technology for the rapid and efficient generation of monoclonal antibodies against desired antigens such as cancer markers, including, but not limited to, the know-how, secrets, inventions, practices, methods, knowledge and data owned by Indigoleaf. The Company purchased this proprietary technology pursuant to an intellectual property transfer agreement and consummated the other transactions contemplated by the asset purchase agreement on July 7, 2008. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, as amended on April 2, 2009, the Company issued 25,638,400 shares of its common stock to Indigoleaf in consideration for the purchase of Indigoleaf’s proprietary technology, and issued 6,409,600 shares of common stock to Dr. Gonenne in consideration for being one of the founders of the Company’s cancer therapy and detection business. The shares issued were valued at $16,000,000.

The purchase of intellectual property from Indigoleaf was accounted for under ASC Topic 350. We believe that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, or economic factors that limit the useful life of this intangible asset. Consequently, we consider the useful life of this asset to be indefinite. As such, we have recorded no amortization expense.

In accordance with ASC Topic 350, we perform, at least annually, impairment testing in the last quarter of the year. The Company did not record an impairment charge at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

(4)           Loan Payable and Lease Obligations

Leases:

     Capital Leases

The Company currently has capital lease commitments for laboratory equipment and vehicles. Amortization of the capital lease costs for items used in research and development is included in research and development expenses. Amortization of the capital lease costs for items not used in research and development is included in depreciation and amortization expense.

     Operating Lease

As of April 1, 2011, the Company relocated its principal executive offices and laboratory to Brooklyn, New York. The Company is leasing its new facilities under a lease that expires in March 2012.

     Loans Payable and Equity Funding Facility

On January 18, 2011, the Company entered into an investment agreement with Centurion Private Equity, LLC (the “Investor”), an affiliate of Roswell Capital Partners, for the provision of an equity line funding facility of up to the amount of $10 million. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement, the Company may sell newly issued shares of its common stock (the “Put Shares”) to the Investor (each such sale, a “Put”) from time to time at a price equal to the lesser of (i) 97% of the “Market Price” (as defined below) of its common stock or (ii) the Market Price of its common stock minus $0.01, subject to certain dollar and share volume limitations for each Put, until the earlier of (a) 24 months from the date its registration statement is declared effective, (b) 30 months from the date of the Investment Agreement, or (c) until all Puts under the Investment Agreement have reached an aggregate gross sales price equal to $10 million. The Investment Agreement provides that prior to exercising any Put, the Company must have a registration statement declared effective with the SEC with respect to the Put Shares. “Market Price” means the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices published daily by Bloomberg LP for the Company’s common stock during the fifteen consecutive trading day period immediately following the date specified by the Company on which it intends to exercise the applicable Put. As consideration for the provision of the equity funding facility, the Company issued to the Investor 465,224 commitment shares and 34,892 fee shares to cover the Investor’s transaction fees.

Concurrent with the closing of the Investment Agreement, the Investor purchased a $100,000 senior secured convertible debenture. The debenture is due to mature on October 18, 2011 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum which is payable to the Investor. At the option of the Investor, the debenture may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time prior to maturity, at a price equal to the lesser of (i) a price equal to 90% of the “Conversion Market Price” (as defined below) on the date of the initial issuance of the Debenture or (ii) 90% of the Conversion Market Price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable conversion date. “Conversion Market Price” means the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices published daily by Bloomberg, LP for the Company’s common stock over the fifteen consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date in question.

9


The debenture includes a security interest on all of the Company’s assets that shall be automatically released following the date that the shares issuable upon conversion of the debenture can be resold without restriction under Rule 144, and 15% of the aggregate volume accrues to the debenture amount. As of March 31, 2011, the principle due was $100,000 plus $1,618 of accrued interest.

As described above, the debenture contains a conversion option that is considered to be a derivative financial instrument. At March 31, 2011, the derivative liability amounted to $39,949. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, gain on derivative liability amounted to $18,828.

On December 7, 2010, the Company entered into a loan agreement to obtain a bridge loan of $75,000 from a stockholder. The loan amount bears interest at a rate of ten percent per annum, is unsecured, and is due upon demand. The accrued interest will be payable on the repayment of the loan. The loan amount will be used for ordinary working capital needs. As of March 31, 2011, the principle due was $75,000 plus $2,866 of accrued interest.

The Company received loans from a third-party that were provided for working capital purposes. The loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and have no terms for repayment. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the amount due was $58,258.

Loans payable amounted to $233,258 at March 31, 2011 and $133,258 at December 31, 2010.

(5)           Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 1,500,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock. All common stock shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable, have one vote per share, and entitle stockholders to receive dividends. Upon liquidation or wind-up, stockholders are entitled to participate equally with respect to any distribution of net assets or any dividends which may be declared. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50 percent of the common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the Directors of the Company.

On February 24, 2011, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock, valued at $36,000, to a third party provider of consulting services to raise financing pursuant to a six-month agreement dated February 24, 2011. The value of the stock issuance was recognized as deferred compensation and is being amortized over the six month term of the agreement.

(6)           Related Party Transactions

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company owed to directors and officers of the Company a total of $49,051 and $10,629, respectively, for various working capital loans received by the Company. The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and have no terms for repayment.

(7)           Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company is subject to various commitments under contractual and other commercial obligations.

Contingencies

On January 10, 2011, the Company received a letter from counsel to Dr. Elisha Orr, the Company’s former Chief Scientific Officer, demanding payment of approximately $160,000 for unpaid management services fees, including payment for a three-month notice period, and for the reimbursement of certain expenses. In the Company’s response to Dr. Orr’s counsel, the Company has refuted the claims presented in the letter primarily because Dr. Orr was dismissed for breach and therefore was not entitled to three months’ notice, and because the Company fully reimbursed Dr. Orr for all reimbursable expenses. Upon Dr. Orr’s return of certain Company property in his possession, the Company intends to reconcile all amounts and pay Dr. Orr the amounts that are owed to him, which include amounts related to unpaid salaries and management service fees totaling $106,164 as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and which have been recorded under accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

(8)           Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” or ASU 2010-13. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to ASC Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting 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, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The adoption of ASU 2010-13 did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

(9)           Subsequent Events

On May 19, 2011, the Company granted stock options to certain employees, members of the Company Board of Directors, and certain consultants of the Company to purchase a total of 2,350,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The terms of the options include the following:

1. Options for 950,000 shares of common stock vest over periods of one to three years and expire five years from the date of vesting.

2. Options for 1,400,000 shares of common stock vest upon the completion of qualified financing (as defined) and expire five years from the date of such qualified financing.

The Company has reviewed subsequent events through the date of this filing.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements that the Company may make from time to time, including all statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the safe harbor provisions set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “plans,” “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “will,” “should,” and other words of similar meaning used in conjunction with, among other things, discussions of future operations, financial performance, product development and new product launches, FDA and other regulatory applications and approvals, market position and expenditures. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by, or on behalf of, the Company include the following: our future product development efforts may not yield marketable products due to results of studies or trials, failure to achieve regulatory approvals or market acceptance, proprietary rights of others or manufacturing issues; we face competition from several companies with greater financial, personnel and research and development resources than ours; delays in successfully completing any clinical trials we may conduct could jeopardize our ability to obtain regulatory approval or market our potential product candidates on a timely basis; biopharmaceutical product development is a long, expensive and uncertain process and the approval requirements for many products are still evolving; we may become subject to product liability claims, which could result in damages that exceed our insurance coverage; we may be subject to claims that our employees or we have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers; the commercialization of our product candidates may not be profitable; Our business could suffer if we cannot attract, retain and motivate skilled personnel and general economic conditions. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these and other factors which could cause differences between forward-looking statements and future actual results is discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2011.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 8, 2006. We are a development stage company with limited operations and no revenues from our business operations. Our registered independent public accounting firm had issued a going concern opinion for our 2010 Annual Report.

Since 2008, we have been in the business of developing and commercializing our proprietary antibody technology for the early detection of cancer and for the creation of highly specific therapeutics (antibodies and novel drugs) against cancer.

In January 2011, we entered into an investment agreement with Centurion Private Equity, LLC (the “Investor” or “Centurion”), an affiliate of Roswell Capital Partners, for the provision of an equity funding facility of up to the amount of $10 million. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement, we may sell newly issued shares of our common stock (the “Put Shares”) to the Investor (each such sale, a “Put”) from time to time at a price equal to the lesser of (i) 97% of the “Market Price” (as defined below) of our common stock or (ii) the Market Price of our common stock minus $0.01, subject to certain dollar and share volume limitations for each Put, until the earlier of (a) 24 months from the date our registration statement is declared effective, (b) 30 months from the date of the Investment Agreement, or (c) until all Puts under the Investment Agreement have reached an aggregate gross sales price equal to $10 million. The Investment Agreement provides that prior to exercising any Put we must have a registration statement declared effective with respect to the Put Shares.“Market Price” means the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices published daily by Bloomberg LP for our common stock during the fifteen consecutive trading day period immediately following the date specified by us on which we intend to exercise the applicable Put. As consideration for the provision of the equity funding facility, we issued to the Investor 465,224 commitment shares and 34,892 fee shares to cover the Investor’s transaction fees.

Concurrent with the closing of the Investment Agreement, the Investor purchased a $100,000 senior secured convertible debenture. The debenture is due to mature on October 18, 2011 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum which is payable to the Investor at maturity. At the option of the Investor, the debenture may be converted into shares of our common stock at any time prior to maturity, at a price equal to the lesser of (i) a price equal to 90% of the “Conversion Market Price” (as defined below) on the date of the initial issuance of the debenture or (ii) 90% of the Conversion Market Price of our common stock on the applicable conversion date. “Conversion Market Price” means the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices published daily by Bloomberg, LP for our common stock over the fifteen consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date in question. The debenture includes a security interest on all of our assets that shall be automatically released following the date that the shares issuable upon conversion of the debenture can be resold without restriction under Rule 144, and 15% of the aggregate volume accrues to the debenture amount.

12


As of April 1, 2011, we relocated our principal executive offices and our principal place of business to 760 Parkside Avenue #208, Brooklyn, NY 11226.

Over the next twelve months, we plan to:

  • complete our Asian clinical study for the diagnosis of ovarian cancer;
  • initiate additional anti-ovarian cancer multi-center clinical studies;
  • initiate an anti-prostate cancer diagnosis clinical study;
  • initiate the antigen identification program in order to identify and sequence those antigens, or cancer markers, which are recognized by our novel MAbs; and
  • hire an additional scientist to assist in carrying out the tasks described above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010

We had no revenues for the period from May 8, 2006 (date of inception) through March 31, 2011. Beginning January 2009, we commenced our research and development activities with the proprietary antibody technology we acquired for the early detection of cancer and for the creation of highly specific therapeutics (antibodies and novel drugs) against cancer.

Research and development expenses were $69,487 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $112,482 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Research and development expenses were higher for the three months ended March 31, 2010, due to contractual payments that were made in connection with our clinical trials in Bangkok, Thailand, which we did not have to make in the current quarter. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and wages for our scientists.

General and administrative expenses were $280,455 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $179,081 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in professional fees as well as an increase in financing costs related to the $100,000 convertible debenture that we sold in January 2011. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and wages, stock-based compensation, and professional fees.

Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $394,375 or $0.01 per share compared to $298,167 or $0.00 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 60,844,264 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to 60,999,725 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As outlined in the overview above, in January 2011, we entered into an investment agreement with Centurion for the provision of an equity funding facility of up to the amount of $10 million. Drawing funds from this facility is at our sole discretion and will be based on our ongoing needs for capital. We will be able to begin drawing funds from the facility once we have an effective registration statement. The facility will be available to us for a period of two years or 30 months from the date of the Investment Agreement, whichever is sooner. During this time, we will be working towards securing additional sources of capital.

Until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, we can give no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital or that any additional capital that we are able to obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. We do not have any bank credit lines. In addition to the equity funding facility with Centurion, we currently plan to attempt to obtain financing from additional investors through third-party loans or convertible debentures. Furthermore, we may seek to obtain funding through strategic alliances with larger pharmaceutical or biomedical companies. We can give no assurances that we will be able to obtain any additional funding from these sources, or that such funding will be available to us on favorable terms.

Given the current pace of clinical development of our products, and until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, we estimate that we have sufficient cash on hand to fund clinical development only through the second quarter of 2011. If we are unable to raise additional capital or enter into strategic partnerships and/or license agreements, we will be required to cease operations or curtail our desired development activities, which will delay the development of our products. Moreover, we will need additional financing after development of our products until we can achieve profitability, if ever.

13


As of March 31, 2011

As of March 31, 2011, our cash balance was $2,228. We have been working on various fronts to attempt to obtain additional capital to fund our operations, including third-party loans, convertible debentures, equity investments, and strategic alliances. During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, we were able to obtain a $100,000 convertible debenture and received advances of $37,918 from related parties.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, net cash used in operating activities was $131,371 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $249,654 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. In both years, cash used in operating activities was used to fund our losses for the respective periods.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we did not use any cash for investing activities.

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $129,710, which resulted primarily from net proceeds of $100,000 in connection with our January 2011 convertible debenture and proceeds of $37,918 from related parties. Net cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $483,734 and which resulted primarily from net proceeds of $500,000 in connection with our March 2010 private placement.

Recent Private Placements

On January 18, 2011, we entered into an investment agreement with Centurion for the provision of an equity funding facility of up to the amount of $10 million. Concurrently, we issued to Centurion a senior secured convertible debenture in the amount of $100,000.

On March 5, 2010, we closed a private placement consisting of 1,000,000 units of our securities at a price of $0.50 per unit, for aggregate proceeds of $500,000. Each unit consists of: (i) one common share; (ii) one non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock for a period of 24 months commencing from the closing of the private placement agreement, at an exercise price of $0.60 per common share; and (iii) one non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock for a period of 24 months commencing from the closing of the private placement agreement, at an exercise price of $0.70 per common share.

On March 5, 2010, we entered into a conversion agreement with the lender of a bridge loan in the amount of $500,000, pursuant to which the loan and all accrued interest was converted into equity securities. In full repayment of the loan and all accrued interest, we issued to the lender 1,000,000 units, with each unit consisting of: (i) one common share; (ii) one non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock until February 16, 2012, at a price per share of $0.60; and (iii) one non-transferable common stock purchase warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock until February 16, 2012, at a price per share of $0.70.

Going Concern

Our registered independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our consolidated financial statements regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our registered independent auditors. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

Until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, we expect our current funds will be sufficient only to enable us to continue our operations as currently planned until approximately the second quarter of 2011. We currently estimate that we will require an additional $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 to fund our operations for the subsequent 12 to 24 month period.

However, until a registration statement relating to the equity funding facility is in effect, there are no assurances that we will be able to obtain funds required for our continued operation. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

14


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and during the applicable periods. We base these estimates on historical experience and on other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and could have a material impact on our financial statements.

For detailed information on our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our financial statements and notes thereto included in this Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2010. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our 10-K filed on April 15, 2011.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” included in this Annual Report for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and their impact on our Financial Statements.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not Applicable.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (who is acting as our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of March 31, 2011, the end of the three-month period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our president and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.

As previously described in our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company identified certain material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses. To remediate such weaknesses, we intend to hire on an as-needed outsourced basis, a qualified person to address the above stated issues; however, the remediation effort is dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be materially adversely affected.

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

We know of no material active or pending legal proceedings against our Company, nor of any proceedings that a governmental authority is contemplating against us.

We know of no material proceedings to which any of our Directors, officers, affiliates, owner of record or beneficially of more than 5 percent of our voting securities or security holders is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

On January 10, 2011, we received a letter from counsel to Dr. Elisha Orr, our former Chief Scientific Officer, demanding payment of approximately $160,000 for unpaid management services fees, including payment for a three-month notice period, and for the reimbursement of certain expenses. In our response to Dr. Orr’s counsel, we have refuted the claims presented in the letter primarily because Dr. Orr was dismissed for breach and therefore was not entitled to three months’ notice, and because the Company fully reimbursed Dr. Orr for all reimbursable expenses. Upon Dr. Orr’s return of certain Company property in his possession, we intend to reconcile all amounts and pay Dr. Orr the amounts that are owed to him, which include amounts related to unpaid salaries and management service fees totaling $106,164 as of December 31, 2010, and which have been recorded under accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
