Exhibit 13.1
ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors of
CryoPort, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CryoPort, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CryoPort, Inc. at March 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  
 
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, effective April 1, 2006, the Company changed its method of accounting for share-based compensation to adopt Statement of Financial Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Organization

Cryoport, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated under the name G.T.5-Limited (“GT5”) on May 25, 1990 as a Nevada Corporation.  Upon completion of a Share Exchange Agreement, on March 15, 2005 the Company changed its name to Cryoport, Inc. and acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Cryoport Systems, Inc. in exchange for 24,108,105 shares of its common stock (which represented approximately 81% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock following the close of the transaction).  Cryoport Systems, Inc, originally formed in 1999 as a California limited liability company and reorganized into a California corporation on December 11, 2000, remains the operating company under Cryoport, Inc.

The principal focus of the Company is to capitalize on servicing the transportation needs of the growing global “biotechnology revolution and provide a newly developed line of one time use dry cryogenic shippers for the transport of biological materials. These materials include live cell pharmaceutical products; e.g., cancer vaccines, diagnostic materials, reproductive tissues, infectious substances and other items that require continuous exposure to cryogenic temperature (less than -150°C).  The Company has historically manufactured and sold a line of reusable cryogenic dry shippers.  These reusable cryogenic dry shippers primarily serve as the vehicles for the development of the cryogenic technology that support the development of the one time use dry cryogenic shippers, the CryoPort Express® One-Way Shipper, but also are essential components of the infrastructure that supports testing and research activities of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.  The Company’s mission is to provide cost effective packaging systems for biological materials requiring, or benefiting from, a cryogenic temperature environment over an extended period of time.

Going Concern

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 generated significant revenues from operations and has no assurance of any future revenues.  The Company generated revenues from operations of only $83,564, incurred a net loss of $4,564,054, and used cash of $1,820,250 in its operating activities during the year ended March 31, 2008.    These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS, continued

On October 1, 2007, the Company received net proceeds of $3,436,551 from the issuance of convertible debentures (see Note 10).  On May 30, 2008 the Company received additional net proceeds of $870,625 from an additional convertible debenture financing (see Note 14).  As a result of the recent financings, the Company had an aggregate cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance of $2,483,127 as of June 26, 2008 which will be used to fund the sales and marketing efforts as well as provide the working capital required for the Company’s launch of the CryoPort Express® One-Way Shipper and is expected to provide the Company with the means for eventual achievement of sustained profitable operations and the ability to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cryoport, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cryoport Systems, Inc.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated 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 periods.  Actual results could differ from estimated amounts.  The Company’s significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns, recoverability of long-lived assets, allowances for inventory obsolescence, accrued warranty costs, valuation of deferred tax assets, the value of stock options and warrants, and product liability reserves.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Customers
 
Cash
 
The Company maintains its cash accounts in financial institutions.  Accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $100,000.  At March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had cash balances of $2,392,350 and $214,469, respectively, which were in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.  The Company performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration risk exposure.

Restricted cash

The Company has invested cash in a one year restricted certificate of deposit bearing interest at 4.38% which serves as collateral for borrowings under a line of credit agreement (see Note 8).  At March 31, 2008, the balance in the certificate of deposit was $203,670.

Customers
 
The Company grants credit to customers within the United States of America and to a limited number of international customers, and does not require collateral.  Sales to international customers are generally secured by advance payments except for a limited number of established foreign customers.  The Company’s ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by the Company.  Reserves for uncollectible amounts and estimated sales returns are provided based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts which management believes are sufficient.  Accounts receivable at March 31, 2008 and 2007 are net of reserves for doubtful accounts and sales returns of approximately $4,700 and $7,000, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.

The Company has foreign sales primarily in Europe and Canada.  Foreign sales are primarily under exclusive distribution agreements with international distributors.  During 2008 and 2007, the Company had foreign sales of approximately $10,500 and $32,000, respectively, which constituted approximately 13% and 47% of net sales, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The majority of the Company’s customers are in the bio-tech, bio-pharmaceutical and life science industries.  Consequently, there is a concentration of receivables within these industries, which is subject to normal credit risk.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly-liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, related party notes payable, note payable to officer, line of credit, convertible notes payable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and a note payable to a third party.  The carrying value for all such instruments, except the related party notes payable, approximates fair value at March 31, 2008 and 2007.  The difference between the fair value and recorded values of the related party notes payable is not significant.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost or current estimated market value.  Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.  The Company periodically reviews its inventories and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements.  Once established, write-downs of inventories are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventories.  Raw Materials, work in process and finished goods include material costs less reserves for obsolete or excess inventories.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of fixed assets are provided using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
 
 
Furniture and fixtures
7 years
 
 
Machinery and equipment
5-7 years
 
 
Leasehold improvements
Lesser of lease term or estimated useful life
 

Betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred.  The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in current operations.

Intangible Assets

Patents and Trademarks

Patents and trademarks are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of five years.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets upon the occurrence of a triggering event by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows.  The amount of long-lived asset impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management.  At March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products will continue, which could result in impairment of its long-lived assets in the future.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the convertible notes payable.  Deferred financing costs are being amortized over the term of the financing instrument on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method.  During the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company capitalized deferred financing costs of $408,776 and $15,600, respectively, and amortized deferred financing costs of $87,706 and $10,901 respectively, to interest expense.

Accrued Warranty Costs

Estimated costs of the Company’s standard warranty, included with products at no additional cost to the customer for a period up to one year, are recorded as accrued warranty costs at the time of product sale.  Costs related to servicing the standard warranty are charged to the accrual as incurred.

Accounting for Shipping and Handling Revenue, Fees and Costs

The Company classifies amounts billed for shipping and handling as revenue in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs. Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in cost of sales.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred as a component of consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses.  During 2008 and 2007, the Company expensed approximately $33,000 and $21,000, respectively, in advertising costs.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company expenses internal research and development costs as incurred.  Third party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
Adoption of SFAS 123(R)

On April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS 123(R)”) which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123(R) requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB 25”). In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which required the application of the accounting standard as of April 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2007. The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R).
 
SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”). Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, other than as related to option grants to employees and consultants below the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.
 
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 included compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of March 31, 2006  based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123 and compensation expense for the share-based payment awards granted subsequent to March 31, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
 
As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures, if any.  SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated average forfeiture rate for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was zero as the Company has not had a significant history of forfeitures and does not expect forfeitures in the future.

SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options or warrants to be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) those benefits would have been reported as operating cash flows had the Company received any tax benefits related to stock option or warrant exercises.

Plan Description

The Company’s stock option plan provides for grants of incentive stock options and nonqualified options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company to purchase the Company’s shares at the fair value, as determined by management and the board of directors, of such shares on the grant date. The options generally vest over a five-year period beginning on the grant date and have a ten-year term. As of March 31, 2008, the Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares under this plan and has 2,511,387 shares available for future issuances.

Summary of Assumptions and Activity

The fair value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, even though this model was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from the Company’s stock options. The Black-Scholes model also requires subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant is based on the U.S Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods.

$1,177,768, respectively, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R), which have been included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  No employee or director warrants or stock options expired during the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2008.  The Company issues new shares from its authorized shares upon exercise of warrants or options.

In December 2006, the Company modified the expiration dates of 2,488,613 of its employee and director stock options by extending their terms by five years.  In connection with the modification, the Company recorded a charge of $133,759 at the date of the modification in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R), which has been included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2007 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

As of March 31, 2008, there was $105,965 of unrecognized compensation cost related to employee and director stock option compensation arrangements, which is expected to be recognized over the next two years. The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $752,140 and $1,044,009 respectively.

Total intrinsic value of stock options and warrants related to stock based compensation, which were exercised during the year ended March 31, 2008 was $30,284.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. The Company is a subchapter "C" corporation and files a federal income tax return. The Company files separate state income tax returns for California and Nevada.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share.

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Basic and diluted loss per share are the same as the effect of stock options and warrants and convertible debt on loss per share are anti-dilutive and thus not included in the diluted loss per share calculation. The impact under the treasury stock method of dilutive stock options and warrants and the if-converted method of convertible debt would have resulted in weighted average common shares outstanding of 47,835,303 for the period ended March 31, 2008 and 33,941,536 for the period ended March 31, 2007.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted loss per share computations for the years ended March 31:

Convertible Debentures

If the conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”).  A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to EITF Issue No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingency Adjustable Conversion Ratio,” (“EITF 98-05”) and EITF Issue No. 00-27, “Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments” (“EITF 00-27”).  In those circumstances, the convertible debt will be recorded net of the discount related to the BCF.  The Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the straight-line interest method which approximates the effective amortization method (see Note 10).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This new standard provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. Under SFAS No. 157, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data, for example, the reporting entity’s own data. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”).  FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing the recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements.  It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.  The Company adopted FIN 48 effective on April 1, 2007.  The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This option is available to all entities, including not-for-profit organizations. Most of the provisions in SFAS No. 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. Some requirements apply differently to entities that do not report net income.  The fair value option established by SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value

option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.  The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”, and is effective for the Company for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 141(R) requires the new acquiring entity to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transactions, expense all direct transaction costs and account for the estimated fair value of contingent consideration.  This standard establishes an acquisition-date fair value for acquired assets and liabilities and fully discloses to investors the financial effect the acquisition will have.  The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires all entities to report minority interests in subsidiaries as equity in the financial statements, and requires that transactions between entities and noncontrolling interests be treated as equity.  SFAS 160 is effective for the Company as of the beginning of fiscal year 2009.  The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES, continued

The valuation allowance increased during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 by approximately $1,236,000 and $953,000, respectively.  No current provision for income taxes for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 is required, except for minimum state taxes, since the Company incurred taxable losses during such years.

The provision for income taxes for fiscal 2008 and 2007 was $1,600 and $1,600, respectively, and differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate of 34% to loss before income taxes as a result of the following:

   
2008
   
2007
 
Computed tax benefit at federal statutory rate

Other
    38,600       (25,400 )
                 
    $ 1,600     $ 1,600  

As of March 31, 2008, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $10,500,000 and $10,500,000 for federal and state income tax reporting purposes, respectively, which expire at various dates through 2027 and 2017, respectively.

The utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards might be limited due to restrictions imposed under federal and state laws upon a change in ownership. The amount of the limitation, if any, has not been determined at this time. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result of the Company’s continued losses and uncertainties surrounding the realization of the net operating loss carry forwards, the Company has recorded valuation allowances equal to the net deferred tax asset amounts as of March 31, 2008 and 2007.
 
On April 1, 2007 the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48. The Company does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases to its liability for unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve month period.

the Black Scholes option pricing model.  The assumptions used under the Black-Scholes pricing model included: a risk free rate of 4.75%; volatility of 293%; an expected exercise term of 5 years; and no annual dividend rate. The Company has capitalized and is amortizing the value of the warrants over the life of the lease and the remaining unamortized value of the warrants has been recorded in other long-term assets. As of March 31, 2008, the unamortized balance of the value of the warrants issued to the lessor was $10,074.

Litigation

The Company becomes a party to product litigation in the normal course of business.  The Company accrues for open claims based on its historical experience and available insurance coverage. In the opinion of management, there are no legal matters involving the Company that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Indemnities and Guarantees

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions.  The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the States of California and Nevada.  In connection with its facility lease, the Company has indemnified its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facility.  The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make.  Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, continued

On June 9, 2008, The Company completed the transactions contemplated under a certain Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor providing for the issuance of the Company’s Original Issue Discount 8% Secured Convertible Debentures (“the May Debentures”) having a principal face amount of $1,250,000.  The Company realized gross proceeds of $1,062,500 after giving effect to a 15% discount.  After accounting for commissions and legal and other fees, the net proceeds to the Company totaled $870,625.

The principal amount under the May Debentures is payable in 23 monthly payments of $54,348 beginning January 31, 2009. The Company may elect to make principal payments in shares of common stock.  The Company may elect to make principal and interest payment in shares of common stock provided, generally, that the Company is not in default under the May Debentures and there is then in effect a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable upon conversion of the May Debentures or in payment of interest due thereunder.  If the Company elects to make interest payment in common stock, the conversion rate will be the lesser of (a) the Conversion Price (as defined below), or (b) 85% of the lesser of (i) the average of the volume weighted average price for the ten consecutive trading days ending immediately prior to the applicable date an interest payment is due or (ii) the average of such price for the ten consecutive trading days ending immediately prior to the date the applicable shares are issued and delivered if such delivery is after the interest payment date.

At any time, holder may convert the May Debentures into shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.84, subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price below the conversion price as such price may be in effect at various times (the “Conversion Price”).

Following the effective date of the registration statement described below, the Company may force conversion of the May Debentures if the market price of the common stock is at least $2.52 for 30 consecutive days. The Company may also prepay the May Debentures in cash at 120% of the then outstanding principal balance.

The May Debentures rank senior to all current and future indebtedness of the Company, with the exception of the Debentures that were issued by the Company in October 2007 which rank senior to the May Debentures.   The May Debentures are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.  As part of the transaction, the Company entered into a waiver and subordination agreement with the holders of the Debentures issued in October 2007.

The Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors that requires the Company to register the shares issuable upon conversion of the May Debentures and exercise of the Warrants within 45 days after the closing date of the transaction. If the registration statement is not filed within that time period or is not declared effective within 90 days after the closing date (120 days in the event of a full review by the Securities and Exchange Commission), the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages in cash in an amount equal to 2% of the total subscription amount for every month that the Company fails to attain a timely filing or effectiveness, as the case may be, subject to exception as set forth in the registration rights agreement.

All securities were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration in reliance on Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and based on the investors’ representations that they are “accredited” as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act.

In May 2008, Company issued 30,000 shares of restricted common stock in lieu of fees paid to a consultant.  These shares were issued at a value of $0.91 per share (based on the underlying stock price on the agreement date) for total cost of $27,300 which will be reported in selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company in the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
 
In April 2008, the Company was notified by the Debenture holders that an equity condition had not been met related to the conversion of the March 31, 2008 principal and interest payments.  As a result, the Company rescinded and cancelled 140,143 shares of registered common stock for the related March 31, 2008 principal redemptions totaling $117,720 and submitted the cash payments in the same amounts to those holders.  Pursuant to a one-time waiver agreement with one of the Debenture holders, the remaining $70,588 of the March 31 principal redemption was adjusted to reflect a one-time conversion rate of $0.70 and, in April 2008 the Company issued the holder 16,807 additional registered shares in consideration.   Also in consideration of a one-time waiver with the Debenture holders, the full amount of the March 31, 2008 interest payments were adjusted to reflect a one-time conversion price of $0.70 and in April 2008 the Company issued the Debenture holders 22,099 additional common stock shares.  As of March 31, 2008, the Company has recorded additional interest expense for the Debentures of $5,446 related to the one-time conversion rate adjustments of the March 31, 2008 principal and interest payments from $0.84 to $0.70.
