1. Background Information

Virolab, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on May 4, 2010 under the name Accelerated Acquisitions X, Inc. The Company was formed as a “shell company” with no operations while it sought new business opportunities.  On March 8, 2011, we entered into a   Licensing Agreement,   pursuant to which the Company received an exclusive, non-transferrable worldwide license to specified technology, patents, intellectual property, know-how, trade secret information, clinical trial protocols and data, as well as commercial rights to:

·  
an investigational therapeutic vaccine for the human papillomavirus (“HPV”) and HPV-related cancers and
·  
a diagnostic blood test for HPV.

As a result of entering into the licensing agreement and undertaking efforts into the research and development its product candidates, the Company ceased to be a shell company. The Company changed its name to Virolab, Inc. on April 5, 2011. The Company operates in one reportable business segment, the development and commercialization of products to improve human healthcare.

The Company is currently in the development stage. All activities of the Company to date relate to its organization and acquiring rights to its product candidates. None of the Company’s product candidates have been approved for sale in any countries.

2. Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in its statement of operations based on estimates of the fair value of employee stock option and stock grant awards as measured on the grant date. For stock options, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the value of the awards granted. The Company amortizes the estimated value of the options as of the grant date over the stock options’ vesting period, which is generally four years.

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company did not enter into any agreements under which it agreed to grant stock-based compensation to any employees or any others. During the year ended March 31, 2012, the Company entered into employment agreements under which it agreed to grant options to purchase 2,550,000 shares of common stock to its officers. Pursuant to the terms of each of the employment agreements, the options will vest over approximately four years from the date each of the officers commenced employment and will have an exercise price of $0.10 per share. The Company granted options to these officers at the $0.10 per share exercise price, in part, because the employment agreements do not provide for the officers to receive any cash compensation until the Company secures at least $5 million in financing.

The Company has estimated the value of common stock into which the options are exercisable at $4 per share for financial reporting purposes. This amount was determined based on the minimum stock price required for listing on any Nasdaq market, and the amount also approximates a $100 million valuation for the entire Company, which is considered “micro-cap” by most equity analysts. The stock based compensation expense is an estimate and significant judgment was involved in attempting to determine the value of common stock. Virolab common stock has never traded publicly, and no stock has traded in private markets either, except for privately negotiated sales to the founder of the company and the founder of the technology from which the company subsequently licensed rights. No common stock has been sold in any transactions since Virolab emerged from its shell-company status. The Company does not have any offers for purchase of its common stock in any stage, and no stock is registered for resale with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company believes the only material estimate used in estimating the value stock options was the estimated fair value of the common stock, and that assumed volatility, term, interest rate and dividend yield changes would be not result in material differences in stock option valuations. Based on the assumed value of common stock, the grant-date fair value of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2012 was $9,945,000. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $2,149,000 for the year ended March 31, 2012, respectively, and $750,699 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 which was all included in general and administrative expenses. As of September 30, 2012, there was $6,009,364 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based compensation awards and takes in to consideration the 400,000 options that expired March 31, 2012, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average remaining vesting period of approximately 3 years.

The Company has reserved a total of 5,962,500 shares of common stock for issuance under its stock award plan, and issued 2,550,000 as of December 31, 2011 and per our Company’s Stock Plan the plan re-triggers to 25% of the total outstanding shares on January 1, 2012, therefore as of September 30, 2012 the Company has a reserve of 5,962,500 shares of common stock for issuance under its stock award plan.

Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $3,006,221, accrued expenses to its founder of $100,295 and cash of only $8 as of September 30, 2012. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing necessary for it to meet its obligations, develop the products that it has licensed, and ultimately generate revenues from the sale of these products. The Company’s founder has agreed to fund certain administrative operating expenses of the Company until the Company succeeds in raising additional funds. Management’s plans include raising additional funds through an equity financing or licensing transaction in order to meet the Company’s obligations and develop its product candidates, but funding may not be available and the Company may be unsuccessful in raising additional capital of any type. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise as a result of this uncertainty.
 

3. Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies followed are:

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - All cash, other than held in escrow, is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States. Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.  Temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES - Expenditures for research, development, and engineering of products are expensed as incurred.

COMMON STOCK - The Company records common stock issuances when all of the legal requirements for the issuance of such common stock have been satisfied.

REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION - The Company has no current source of revenue; therefore the Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding the recognition of revenue or cost.

ADVERTISING COSTS - The Company's policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred.

 INCOME TAXES - Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences. Such temporary differences result from differences in the carrying value of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 "Uncertainty in Income Taxes" (ASC 740-10), on January 1, 2007. The Company has not recognized a liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been provided since there is no unrecognized benefit since the date of adoption. The Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE - Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of notes payable to common stock. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. At September 30, 2012, the Company did not have any potentially dilutive common shares.
 
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced a framework for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities.  The Company adopted the standard for those financial assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year and the impact of adoption was not significant. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" (ASC 820) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs).  The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
 
·  
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
·  
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
·  
Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
 
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued compensation and accrued expenses. The fair value of the Company's notes payable is estimated based on current rates that would be available for debt of similar terms which is not significantly different from its stated value.
 
On January 1, 2011, the Company applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
 
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company.  Management has reviewed the aforementioned rules and releases and believes any effect will not have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

 4. Equity Transactions
 
The Company has authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. The Company’s Board of Directors has the ability to determine the rights and preferences of any series of preferred stock issued. There are no shares of preferred stock currently issued or outstanding.

Common Stock

The Company has authorized 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

At inception (May 4, 2010), the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC (“AVP”) for $2,000.

On February 27, 2011, AVP tendered 3,500,000 shares to the Company for cancellation. Also on February 27, the Company granted AVP an option to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock at par value in exchange for certain consulting services, and AVP immediately exercised this option. The Company has the option to repurchase the shares exercised under the option at par value if the below milestones are not met within a specified time:

·
Milestone 1 – Company’s right of repurchase will lapse with respect to 60% of the shares upon securing $5 million in available cash from funding;

Milestone 2 – Company’s right of repurchase will lapse with respect to 40% of the Shares upon securing $10 million in available cash (inclusive of any amounts attributable to Milestone 1).

On February 27, 2011, the Company issued 22,350,000 shares of common stock to Virolab S de RL de CV (“Virolab Mexico”) at par value.

On March 31, 2012 there were 49,998 employee stock options that expired and are considered non-issued.

As of March 31, 2012, there were 25,350,000 shares issued and outstanding and 5,962,500 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Company’s Stock Option Plan and 5,962,500 of these shares remained available for future issuance as of September 30, 2012. There were 68,687,500 shares of common stock available for future issuance.

5. Income Taxes

The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods.  The tax benefit for the periods presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from the net operating losses and other temporary differences, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not.  In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not.  As of September 30, 2012 the Company had a loss and for the period May 4, 2010 (date of inception) through September 30, 2012.   The net operating losses resulting from operating activities result in deferred tax assets of approximately $100,295 at the effective statutory rates which will expire by the year 2031.  The deferred tax asset has been off-set by an equal valuation allowance.

There are no current or deferred income tax expense or benefit recognized for the period ended September 30, 2012.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on August 24, 2012, provides examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those implied or projected in this Current Report on Form 10-Q. Except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events after the date of this report.

Overview

We are a development-stage biopharmaceutical company that recently licensed the exclusive development and commercialization rights to a therapeutic vaccine for treatment of pre-cancerous lesions of the cervix and infections with the human papillomavirus, or HPV, virus. We also have an exclusive license to a blood-based diagnostic test for HPV infections. Before we licensed the rights for these two HPV product candidates we were a “blank check” company and had no operations. Shares of our common stock are not registered for resale, and accordingly there is no public trading market for our common stock. We have a very limited amount of cash and will have to raise significant funds in order to further develop our product candidates.

Plan of Operation

We believe that the HPV therapeutic vaccine which we plan to develop has the potential to be the first therapeutic to clear pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions of the cervix along with the underlying HPV viral infection. This belief is based on the results of two phase 2 clinical trials and one phase 3 clinical conducted in Mexico in which cancerous and pre-cancerous cervical lesions were eliminated or regressed in 88% to 97% of the patients. In addition, detectable HPV virus was eliminated from approximately 50% of the 1,246 patients treated in the three trials. All studies showed the vaccine candidate to be well tolerated, although headaches and other flu-like symptoms appeared in some of the patients.

In addition to the therapeutic vaccine candidate, Virolab has licensed rights to a specific blood-based diagnostic test for HPV. Currently, diagnosis of an infection with HPV requires a gynecological examination as well as a cervical tissue sample. We believe that a diagnosis from a simple blood draw will be less expensive and more convenient for patients.

We are evaluating our options to commercialize the HPV therapeutic vaccine candidate and the HPV diagnostic test. These product candidates have not been approved for commercial sale anywhere in the world, and each country has different requirements for approval, so the commercialization process is likely to be lengthy and complex. We may employ different strategies in different areas of the world, such as sublicensing development and commercialization rights for some territories while retaining rights for other territories. Based on the historical work of Virolab S de RL de CV, or Virolab Mexico, (which is the company that conducted the development work prior to its licensing of development and commercialization rights to us through Virolab Nevada, LLC, or Virolab Nevada) in the country of Mexico, we believe that the path to obtain government approval may be shorter in the Latin America countries.

We will not be able to commercialize our therapeutic vaccine candidate or our diagnostic test without additional capital. We are evaluating various means of raising this capital, including through the sale of equity securities, licensing agreements or other means. If we do not raise additional funds of at least $2 million for the advancement of our technology before July 12, 2015, we will lose our rights to the technology (including at least $0.5 million of which must be raised before July 12, 2013, and $1 million of which must be raised before July 12, 2014). We plan to seek at least $10 million of capital within the next 12 months, and plan to use these funds to determine the FDA’s requirements for approval of our therapeutic vaccine candidate, begin working on these requirements, file patents on our technology, broaden our pipeline of investigational drugs, vaccines and/or diagnostics, establish a biotechnology laboratory, and/or continue the process of seeking approval of our therapeutic vaccine candidate and diagnostic test outside of the United States.

Going Concern
 
Because we only had $40 in cash at March 31, 2012, our most recent fiscal year-end, the report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2012 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding their substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our auditors’ opinion is based upon our operating losses and our need to obtain additional financing to sustain operations. Our ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due, and to generate sufficient revenues from our operations to pay our operating expenses. We will need to raise substantial funds in order to develop the HPV products which we have recently licensed from Virolab Nevada, and if we cannot raise additional funds we may need to abandon development of these products and cease operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are more fully disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements we included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2012, filed with the SEC on August 24, 2012. However, some of our accounting policies may be more particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management. To date, due to our limited operations, we believe the only accounting policy which has required significant judgment or use of estimates, other than our assumption that we will continue as a going concern, is our estimated charge for stock-based compensation. Our accounting for stock-based compensation does not impact our current financial position, but does have a major impact on our statement of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock awards granted to recipients using an estimate of the fair value of the stock award on the date that the award is granted. This estimated fair value of the stock award is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the underlying stock award, which is generally four years for stock options granted to employees. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved in estimating the input values needed to estimate the fair value of stock options and other awards. For Virolab in particular, our stock has never traded and therefore it is difficult to determine the underlying fair value of our common stock on each date a stock award is made. Changes in the estimated value of the underlying stock will materially affect the resulting estimates of the fair values of the awards that are granted. Also, the expenses recorded for stock-based compensation in our financial statements may differ significantly from the actual value realized by the recipients, and these expenses are not adjusted to the actual amounts, if any, realized. Users of the financial statements should also understand that the expenses we recognize for stock-based compensation do not result in payments of cash by us.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
We do not believe that there are any recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not adopted which are likely to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or other disclosures.

Results of Operations

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was the second quarter of our fiscal year ending March 31, 2013, we had no revenue and incurred general and administrative expenses of $232,636. Our net loss was $232,636, due to general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 consisted of $226,606 for the estimated value of stock-based compensation to our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, and $6,030 for administrative support, which mostly consisted of document preparation and EDGAR filing with the SEC.

For the six months ended September 30, 2012, we had no revenue and incurred general and administrative expenses of $769,731. Our net loss was $769,731, due to general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the first six months of fiscal 2012 consisted of $750,699 for the estimated fair value of stock-based compensation and $19,032 for administrative support, which mostly consisted of document preparation and EDGAR filing with the SEC.

The estimated value of stock based compensation for our two executive officers was based on the employment agreements with James A.D. Smith, our Chief Executive Officer, and Matthew M. Loar, our Chief Financial Officer, which provide for 1,250,000 and 900,000 stock options, respectively, each vesting over approximately four years beginning April 15, 2011 and May 23, 2011, respectively. The stock based compensation expense is an estimate and significant judgment was involved in attempting to determine the value of the company, Virolab, Inc., for which the options are exercisable. The actual value of our common stock may turn out to be much higher or lower than estimated amount, due to the lack of any reliable data on the Company’s current valuation. Virolab common stock has never traded publicly, and no stock has traded in private markets either, except for privately negotiated sales to the founder of the company and the founder of the technology from which the company subsequently licensed rights. No common stock has been sold in any manner since Virolab emerged from its shell-company status. The Company does not have any offers for purchase of its common stock in any stage, and no stock is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission; therefore if any stock were to be sold the Company would need to do so under an effective registration statement or under an applicable exemption from registration. With the limited data points available to the Company and its board of directors regarding the Company’s valuation, we have estimated the value of common stock at $4 per share for financial reporting purposes. This amount was determined based on the minimum stock price required for listing on any Nasdaq market, and it closely approximates a $100 million valuation for the entire Company (considered “micro-cap” by most equity analysts), which we do not believe unreasonable for a development stage company with phase 3 data for an underserved medical condition. Each $1 change in estimated per-share value of our common stock would change the estimated stock-based compensation expense as reported for the quarter ending September 30, 2012 by approximately $56,651, so that a $3 estimated value for Virolab, Inc. common stock ($1 less per share) would result in general and administrative expenses of approximately $169,955 instead of the reported $226,606, likewise a $5 estimated value for Virolab, Inc. common stock would result in general and administrative expenses of approximately $283,257. Due to the low exercise price offered to our executive offers in their employment contracts ($0.10 per share, since they are currently not receiving any cash compensation) as compared to the estimated value for financial reporting purposes, the stock price volatility, stock option term and interest rate assumptions do not have a significant impact on the estimated value of the options as they would if the options were granted at market price. As noted above, the actual value of our common stock may turn out to be much higher or lower than the amount estimated for financial reporting purposes, due to the current lack of any reliable data on the Company’s current valuation.

General and administrative expenses were higher in the fiscal period ended in  September 30, 2013 compared to the period ended September 30, 2012 because:
 
We were no longer a shell company for the fiscal 2013 period,
 
We incurred higher costs to prepare and file our current and periodic reports with the SEC in the fiscal 2012 period, and

We incurred much higher costs for stock based compensation, as noted above, compared to no stock-based compensation in the fiscal 2012 period.
 
To date, our general and administrative expenses, which in most other cases are paid in cash by the reporting companies, have been funded by Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC, or AVP. Expenses include legal fees, accounting fees, costs associated with SEC filings and preparation of documents.

We expect that, if we are successful in securing additional capital, future general and administrative expenses will increase significantly as compared to the period ended September 30, 2012. In addition, we expect to incur research and development expenses as we seek to advance our product candidates.

Liquidity and Capital Resource

As of September 30, 2012, we had a cash balance of only $8. There were no other assets, and accrued expenses were approximately $3,006,251, of which 100,295 was due to AVP, a related party. We had a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $102,167 and no means to pay the liabilities in excess of our assets. AVP has agreed to fund certain administrative operating expenses of Virolab until the Company succeeds in raising additional funds, at which point the administrative operating expenses will be due. However, AVP may seek to force earlier payment of the amounts which we owe, or AVP may decide in the future not to continue funding costs on behalf of Virolab, although we are not aware of any plans for them to do so. If we are not successful in raising additional capital, we may not be able to pay our liabilities and may have to cease operations.

We plan to seek to raise at least $10 million of capital through the sale of equity or other means that could dilute existing shareholders within the next 12 months, and plan to use these funds to determine the FDA’s requirements for approval of our therapeutic vaccine candidate, begin working on these requirements, file patents on our technology, broaden our pipeline of investigational drugs, vaccines and/or diagnostics, establish a biotechnology laboratory, and continue the process of seeking approval of our therapeutic vaccine candidate and diagnostic test outside of the United States. We are not presently able to determine the specific costs for our plans because we do not yet know the requirements for approval of either our therapeutic vaccine candidate or our diagnostic test.

We have a consulting agreement with AVP under which AVP has agreed to provide us with certain advisory services that include reviewing our business plan, identifying and introducing prospective financial and business partners, and providing general business advice regarding our operations and business strategy. Under the consulting agreement, cash compensation of $400,000 is due to AVP upon our securing $5 million in available cash from funding, and an additional $400,000 is due upon our securing $10 million in available cash from funding (inclusive of the first $5 million). The cash compensation is to be paid to AVP at the rate of $66,667 per month. The total cash compensation to be received by AVP under the consulting agreement is not to exceed $800,000 unless we receive an amount of funding in excess of $10 million. If we receive equity or debt financing that is an amount less than $5 million, in between $5 million and $10 million, or greater than $10 million, the cash compensation earned by the AVP under its consulting services agreement will be prorated. We have the option to make a lump sum payment to AVP in lieu of the monthly cash payments.

If we do not raise additional funds of at least $2 million for the advancement of our technology before July 12, 2015, we will lose our rights to the HPV technology that we recently licensed; at least $0.5 million of these additional funds must be raised before July 12, 2013, and at least $1 million must be raised before July 12, 2014.

If we or a sublicense is successful in commercializing our therapeutic vaccine candidate or diagnostic test, we will be obligated to pay the licensor two percent (2%) of any royalties received if we grant any third parties royalty-bearing licenses to the technology. In addition, we have agreed to pay the licensor a royalty of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of all gross revenue resulting from use of the licensed technology.

We plan to measure our future liquidity primarily by the cash and working capital available to fund our operations, if we are ever able to raise capital. To date we have not raised any capital and, accordingly; do not have any capital available to fund our operations, as stated above. We will not be able to commercialize either our therapeutic vaccine candidate or our diagnostic test without additional capital. We are evaluating various means of raising our initial capital, including through the sale of equity securities, licensing agreements or other means. We expect to incur losses for at least several years into the future as we develop our investigational therapeutic vaccine and diagnostic test, and we are unable to estimate when, if ever, we will receive revenue or have a positive cash flow.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
We do not currently believe we are currently subject to any material interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, or commodity price risk. Our ability to fund operations in the future will be subject to our ability to raise capital, which may be through the sale of equity securities. While we believe the sale of equity securities is unlikely to expose us to any material loss, we may not be able to continue operations if we are unable to agree with a buyer on a future price for our equity securities.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer is  responsible for establishing and maintaining “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for our company. Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), our Chief Executive  concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2012, the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s last fiscal quarter 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.

We are not currently party to any material legal proceedings, although from time to time we may be named as a party to lawsuits in the normal course of business.
