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, 2009 and 2008, 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, 2009 and 2008, 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.

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 and has a working capital deficit of $3,693,015 and a cash and cash equivalents balance of $249,758 at March 31, 2009.  Management has estimated that cash on hand, including cash borrowed under convertible debentures issued in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue its operations only into the third quarter of fiscal 2010.  These matters 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For The Years Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008


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.  On March 15, 2005 CryoPort Systems, Inc., a California corporation founded in 1999 and incorporated on December 11, 2000, became the primary operating company of GT5 upon completion of a Share Exchange Agreement, whereby GT5 acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of CryoPort Systems, Inc. in exchange for 24,108,105 shares of the Company’s common stock representing approximately 81% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock following the close of the transaction.  In connection with this transaction GT5 changed its name to Cryoport, Inc. CryoPort Systems, Inc. continues today as the operating company under CryoPort, Inc.

The principal focus of the Company is to provide the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries with a cost effective frozen shipping solution, the CryoPort Express™ System utilizing the Company’s newly developed product line, the CryoPort Express™ Shippers, for the frozen or cryogenic transport of biological materials. These biological materials include live cell pharmaceutical products; e.g., cancer vaccines, diagnostic materials, reproductive tissues, infectious substances and other items that require continuous frozen or cryogenic temperatures (less than -150°C).  The Company has historically designed, manufactured a line of reusable cryogenic dry vapor shippers. The reusable cryogenic dry shippers primarily served as the vehicles for the development of the cryogenic technology that supported the development of the new CryoPort Express™ Shipper.. The Company’s primary mission is to provide reliable and cost effective solutions for the frozen transportation of biological materials in the life sciences industry.

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 $35,124, incurred a net loss of $16,705,151 including a $10,846,573 loss on debt extinguishment and used cash of $2,586,470 in its operating activities during the year ended March 31, 2009.    In addition, the Company has a working capital deficit of $3,693,015 and has a cash and cash equivalents balance of $249,758 at March 31, 2009.  Currently management has projected that cash on hand, including cash borrowed under the convertible debentures issued in the first quarter of  fiscal 2010, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue its operations only into the third quarter of fiscal 2010 until more significant

funding can be secured.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Through June 22, 2009 the Company had raised net proceeds of $906,630 under the Private Placement Debentures. (see Note 10 and Note 14).  As a result of this recent financing, the Company had an aggregate cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance of approximately $689,000 as of June 22, 2009 which will be used to fund the working capital required for minimal operations including inventory build as well limited sales efforts to advance the Company’s commercialization of the CryoPort Express™ Shippers until additional capital is obtained. The Company’s management recognizes that the Company must obtain additional capital for the achievement of sustained profitable operations.  Management’s plans include obtaining additional capital through equity and debt funding sources; however, no assurance can be given that additional capital, if needed, will be available when required or upon terms acceptable to the Company or that the Company will be successful in its efforts to negotiate extension of its existing debt.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

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 the fair value of modified debt, debt discounts, 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.

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”).  Effective October 3, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 raised the FDIC deposit coverage limits to $250,000 per owner from $100,000 per owner.  At March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had cash balances of $121,042 and $2,392,350, 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 2.32% which serves as collateral for borrowings under a line of credit agreement (see Note 8).  At March 31, 2009 and 2008, the balance in the certificate of deposit was $101,053 and $203,670, respectively.
 
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 generally requires advance or credit card payments for initial sales to new 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, 2009 and 2008 are net of reserves for doubtful accounts and sales returns of approximately $600 and $4,700, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.

The Company has limited foreign sales primarily in Europe, Canada, India and Australia.  Foreign sales are primarily to a small number of customers.  During 2009 and 2008, the Company had foreign sales of approximately $6,500 and $10,500, respectively, which constituted approximately 19% and 13% of net sales, respectively.

The majority of the Company’s customers are in the biotechnology, 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, 2009 and 2008.  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 standard cost method which approximates 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

Intangible assets are comprised of patents and trademarks and software development costs.  The Company capitalizes costs of obtaining patents and trademarks which are amortized, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of five years.  The Company capitalizes certain costs related to software developed for internal use in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use.  Software development costs incurred during the preliminary or maintenance project stages are expensed as incurred, while costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software which is five years.  Capitalized costs include purchased materials and costs of services including the valuation of warrants issued to consultants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

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, 2009 and 2008, 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, 2009 and 2008, the Company capitalized deferred financing costs of $111,273 and $408,776 respectively, and amortized deferred financing costs of $42,284 and $87,706 respectively, to interest expense.  During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing costs pursuant to amendments made to convertible notes payable from the resulting debt modifications (see Note 10).

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.

The following represents the activity in the warranty accrual during the years ended March 31:

     
2009
   
2008
 
  Beginning warranty accrual    $ 29,993     $ 55,407

    (12,000     (31,039 )
                   
   Ending warranty accrual      $ 18,743     $  29,993  

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as revised by SAB 104.  The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped to a customer and the risks and rewards of ownership and title have passed based on the terms of the sale.  The Company records a provision for sales returns and claims based upon historical experience.  Actual returns and claims in any future period may differ from the Company’s estimates.

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 selling, general and administrative expenses.  During 2009 and 2008, the Company expensed approximately $61,000 and $33,000, 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

The Company accounts for share-based payments to employees and directors in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options and warrants, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements based upon their fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of share-based awards under SFAS 123(R). Fair value is determined at the date of grant. In accordance with SFAS 123(R), the consolidated financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual effect differs from those estimates. The estimated average forfeiture rate for the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 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, 2009 and 2008.

The Company accounts for equity issuances to non-employees in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the third-party performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.

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, 2009, 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.

The following table presents the weighted average assumptions used to estimate the per share fair values of stock warrants granted to employees and directors during the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

The aggregate intrinsic value for stock options and warrants related to stock based compensation, which were exercised during the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $203,102 and $30,284, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 (“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 57,565,246 for the year ended March 31, 2009 and 47,835,303 for the year ended March 31, 2008.

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 effective interest method which approximates the straight-line amortization method (see Note 10).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 (“SFAS No. 157”), Fair Value Measurements.  SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.  Specifically, this standard establishes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity specific measurement.  As such, the value measurement should be determined based on assumptions the market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.  The expanded disclosures include disclosure of the inputs used to measure fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements on earnings for the period.  SFAS No. 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 (“FSP 157-2”), Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 was issued in

February 2008.  FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value at least once a year, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 related to financial assets and liabilities did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 157 may have on its future consolidated financial statements related to non-financial assets and liabilities.

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active (“FSP No. 157-3”). FSP No. 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active, and provides an illustrative example intended to address certain key application issues. FSP No. 157-3 is effective immediately, and applies to the Company’s March 31, 2009 financial statements. The Company has concluded that the application of FSP No. 157-3 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2009.

In June 2008, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB published EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF No. 07-5”) to address concerns regarding the meaning of “indexed to an entity’s own stock” contained in FASB Statement 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities . This related to the determination of whether a free-standing equity-linked instrument should be classified as equity or liability. If an instrument is classified as liability, it is valued at fair value, and this value is re-measured on an ongoing basis, with changes recorded in earnings in each reporting period. EITF No. 07-5 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is not permitted. Although EITF No. 07-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, any outstanding instrument at the date of adoption will require a retrospective application of the accounting through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of EITF No. 07-5 on its consolidated financial statements, but it believes that certain factors of its convertible debentures and warrants that have been previously classified as equity may require liability treatment.

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 November 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue 07-01 (“EITF 07-01”), “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements”.  EITF 07-01 requires collaborators to present the results of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) other collaborators based on other applicable generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) or, in the absence of other applicable GAAP, based on analogy to authoritative accounting literature or a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election. Further, EITF 07-01 clarified that the determination of whether transactions within a collaborative arrangement are part of a vendor-customer (or analogous) relationship subject to Issue 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer”. EITF 07-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES, continued

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $12,600,000 and $12,600,000 for federal and state income tax reporting purposes, respectively, which expire at various dates through 2028.

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, 2009 and 2008.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

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.

October 2007 Debentures

On October 1, 2007, the Company issued to BridgePointe Master Fund, Ltd. and the Enable Funds (the “October 2007 Debenture Holders”), Original Issue Discount 8% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (the “October 2007 Debentures”) having a principal face amount of $4,707,705 and generating gross proceeds of $4,001,551.  After accounting for commissions, legal and other fees, the net proceeds to the Company totaled $3,436,551.

Original Terms, as amended in February 2008:

In accordance with the Convertible Debenture Agreement as amended on February 19, 2008, the principal amount under the October 2007 Debentures is payable to the investors in 24 monthly redemption payments which commenced on March 31, 2008.  The principal payments have subsequently been adjusted according to the terms of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.  The Company may elect to make principal redemptions in shares of common stock.   If the Company elects to make principal redemptions 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 a principal redemption 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 principal redemption due date.

At any time, holders may convert the 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”).  During fiscal 2009 the conversion price was subsequently reset to $0.51 as a result of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.

Quarterly interest payments for these convertible debentures are payable in cash and commenced on January 1, 2008.  The Company may elect to make interest payments in shares of common stock provided, generally, that it is not in default under the Debentures and it has met certain equity conditions prior to the due date of the interest payments.  If the Company elects to make interest payments 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.

In connection with the Debenture financing transaction, the Company issued to the investors five-year warrants to purchase 5,604,411 shares of common stock at $0.92 per share and two-year warrants to purchase 1,401,103 shares of common stock at $0.90 per share and warrants to purchase 1,401,103 shares of common stock at $1.60 per share (collectively, the “October 2007 Warrants”).  The value attributed to these warrants as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $7,838,791 on the date of issuance. The valuation of the October 2007 Warrants have been affected by the debt restructurings as the result of subsequent amendments to the October 2007 Debentures as discussed further below.

Under EITF 00-27, the value of the warrants issued to the investors is calculated relative to the total amount of the debt offering.  The relative fair value of the warrants issued to the investors was determined to be $2,941,267, or 62.5% of the total offering.  The relative fair value of the warrants, along with the effective beneficial conversion feature of the debt ($3,557,761) and the face value discount given to the investors ($706,154), totaled in excess of the face amount of the Debentures.  As such, the Company recorded a debt discount equal to the face value of the Debentures of $4,707,705.  The debt discount is being amortized by the Company through the maturity dates of the Debentures.  The debt discount has been affected by the debt restructurings as a result of subsequent amendments to the October 2007 Debentures discussed in further detail below.

Financing fees of $565,000, including placement agent fees of $440,000 and legal and other fees of $125,000, were paid in cash from the gross proceeds of the Debentures.  Joseph Stevens and Company (“Joseph Stevens”) acted as sole placement agent in connection with the Debenture financing transaction.  Also in connection with the Debenture financing transaction, the Company issued Joseph Stevens three-year warrants to purchase 560,364 shares of the Company’s common stock exercisable at $0.84 per share.  The value of the warrants issued to Joseph Stevens as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $525,071.

The total financing fees of $1,090,071 related to the Debenture financing transaction were allocated to the equity and debt components of the financing.  The Company recorded 62.5% of the financing fees ($681,294) as costs related to the issuance of the equity instruments, and as such has netted those amounts against additional paid-in capital as of the date of the financing.  The remaining 37.5% ($408,777) was recorded as deferred financing costs on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2008, and amortized by the Company through the maturity dates of the Debentures under the effective interest method.  The deferred financing fees were affected by the debt restructure as a result of the April 2008 Amendment discussed in further detail below.

In connection with the Debentures, 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 principal amounts of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants.  Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, on November 9, 2007 the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form SB-2.  On January 25, 2008, the registration statement, as amended, became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Per the terms of the registration rights agreement, following the effective date of the registration statement, the Company may force conversion of the Debentures if the market price of the common stock is at least $2.52 for 30 consecutive days.  The Company may also prepay the Debentures in cash at 120% of the then outstanding principal balance.

The Debentures rank senior to all of the Company’s current and future indebtedness and are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.

April 2008 Amendment:

On April 30, 2008, the October 2007 Convertible Debenture Agreement was amended to reflect changes to the monthly redemption of principal and changes to the October 2007 Warrants issued with the original October 2007 Debentures.  Under the terms of the April 30, 2008 Amendment (the “April Amendment”), the monthly principal redemptions were suspended until August 1, 2008 and the remaining principal due on the October 2007 Debentures were to be paid thereafter on the first date of each month in equal installments through March 27, 2010, the expiration date. Further, the April Amendment changed the exercise price of the October 2007 Warrants issued under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and related Agreements from $0.90, $0.92 and $1.60 to $0.60 each. The number of shares to be purchased under each of the October 2007 Warrants was also adjusted under the terms of the April Amendment so that the original dollar amounts to be raised by the Company through the exercise of each of the October 2007 Warrants remained the same.  As a result, the number of shares to be purchased under the October 2007 Warrants increased by 6,024,743 from 8,406,617 to 14,431,360.

The April Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures has been accounted for by the Company as an extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF Issue No. 96-19 (“EITF Issue No. 96-19”), Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments, and EITF Issue No. 06-6 (“EITF Issue No. 06-6”), Debtor's Accounting For a Modification or Exchange of Convertible Debt Instruments.  The Company determined that the net present value of the cash flows under the terms of the April Amendment was more than 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original October 2007 Debentures agreement.  Due to the substantial difference, the Company determined an extinguishment of debt had occurred with the April Amendment.  Accordingly, the Company

As a result of the April Amendment, unamortized deferred financing costs of $312,197 arising from the original issuance of the October 2007 Debentures were written off and were included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.  There were no debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the April Amendment.

A debt discount of $2,643,192 was recorded in connection with the debt extinguishment from April Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures.  The debt discount was amortized monthly based on the maturity dates of the October 2007 Debentures until affected by the August 2008 Amendment discussed in further detail below.

The increase in value of the October 2007 Warrants arising from the change in conversion price and the additional number of warrants issued of $5,858,344 has been accounted for as a payment to the debt holders in connection with the debt extinguishment and included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.

The total loss on extinguishment of debt recorded by the Company as a result of changes to the October 2007 Debentures from the April Amendment discussed above totaled $6,902,941 which is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2009.

August 2008 Amendment:

On August 29, 2008, the Company entered into an “Amendment to Debentures, Agreement and Waiver” (the “August Amendment”) with October 2007 Debenture Holders, to amend the October 2007 Convertible Debenture. The August Amendment waived quarterly interest payments that would otherwise have been due on October 1, 2008 and January 1, 2009 and defers the monthly redemption dates from July 31, 2008 through November 30, 2008  to commence upon December 31, 2008, and terminating upon full redemption of the October 2007 Debentures. In consideration for entering into the August Amendment, the outstanding principal amount of the October 2007 Debentures was increased to an amount equal to 115% of the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of as of August 29, 2008, the date of the August Amendment, plus (ii) an amount equal to the additional amount of interest that would have accrued on the October 2007 Debenture from July 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008. There were no changes to the warrants related to the October 2007 Debentures as a result of the August Amendment.  Based on the terms of the August Amendment, the principal balances of the October 2007 Debentures increased by $866,202 to $5,285,599.

The August Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures has been accounted for by the Company as an extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF Issue No. 96-19 and EITF Issue No. 06-6.  The Company determined that the net present value of the cash flows under the terms of the August Amendment was more than 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the October 2007 Debentures agreement as previously amended in April 2008.  Due to the substantial difference, the Company determined an extinguishment of debt had occurred with the August Amendment.  Accordingly, the Company recorded the amended October 2007 Debentures at their fair value of $2,203,086 at the date of extinguishment.  The difference between the fair value of the amended October 2007 Debentures and the carrying value of the original October 2007 Debentures at the date of debt extinguishment amounting to $91,728 was recorded as an offset against the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.

A debt discount of $3,082,511 was recorded in connection with the debt extinguishment from August Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures which includes $117,851 related to the interest that would have accrued from September to December 2008.  This portion of the debt discount was amortized through December 2008, while the remaining $2,964,660 of the debt discount is being amortized monthly based on the maturity dates of the October 2007 Debentures until affected by the January 2009 Amendment discussed in further detail below.

January 2009 Amendment:

Effective January 27, 2009, the October 2007 and May 2008 Convertible Debenture Agreements (see below) were amended to reflect changes to the monthly redemptions of principal, the quarterly payments of interest and changes to the October 2007 and May 2008 Warrants related to the original October 2007 and May 2008 Debentures.  Under the terms of the January 27, 2009 Amendment (the “January Amendment”), the “Conversion Price” of the debentures was reset from $0.84 to $0.51, monthly principal redemptions were deferred until August 1, 2009 and the remaining principal due on each of the debentures will be paid thereafter on the first date of each month in twelve equal installments through July 1, 2010, the amended maturity date.  During the deferral period interest payments due from January 1, 2009 through July 1, 2009 may be paid monthly by the Company in common stock shares at a conversion rate of $0.40 given that it has met certain equity conditions prior to the due date of the interest payments.  If the equity conditions are not met, the Company may add the monthly interest payment to the principal balance of the debenture.

Further, the January Amendment reset the “Exercise Price” of the October 2007 and May 2008 Warrants issued in connection with the October 2007 and May 2008 Debentures Agreements and related agreements from the then current exercise prices of $0.60, $0.92 and $1.35 to $0.60 and extended the expiration dates of the October 2007 warrants to January 1, 2014. The number of shares to be purchased under the October 2007 and May 2008 warrants were proportionately increased under the terms of the amendments so that the original dollar amounts to be raised by registrant though the exercise of each of the warrants and the proportional number of warrants issued to each Debenture Holder remained the same.   As a result, the number of common stock shares to be purchased under the October 2007 Warrants increased by 2,851,897 to 17,283,257.

Under the terms of the January Amendment, in February 2009, the Company issued a total of 320,800 restricted common shares valued at $131,528 to the October 2007 Debenture Holders.

The January Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures has been accounted for by the Company as an extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF Issue No. 96-19 and EITF Issue No. 06-6.  The Company determined that the net present value of the cash flows under the terms of the January Amendment was more than 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original October 2007 Debentures agreement.  Due to the substantial difference, the Company determined an extinguishment of debt had occurred with the January Amendment.  Accordingly, the Company recorded the amended October 2007 Debentures at their fair value of $2,733,557 as of January 27, 2009, the date of extinguishment.  The decrease in the fair value of the amended October 2007 Debentures from the carrying value of the amended October 2007 Debentures at the date of debt extinguishment amounting to $367,557 was recorded as an offset to the total loss on debt extinguishment. A new debt discount of $2,552,042 was recorded in connection with the debt extinguishment from the January Amendment to the October 2007 Debentures.  The debt discount is being amortized through the July 1, 2010 amended maturity dates of the October 2007 Debentures.

The increase in value of the October 2007 Warrants arising from the change in conversion price and the additional number of warrants issued of $2,874,314 has been accounted for as a payment to the debt holders in connection with the debt extinguishment and included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.  In addition the fair value of the 320,800 shares issued to the October 2007 Debenture holders totaled $131,528 and has been accounted for as a payment to the debt holders in connection with the debt extinguishment and included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.

The total loss on extinguishment of debt recorded by the Company as a result of changes to the October 2007 Debentures from the January Amendment discussed above totaled $2,638,285 which is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2009.

On March 1, 2009 the Company increased the principal balances of the October 2007 Debentures by $70,474, the amount of the accrued interest due as of that date, as a result of the equity condition constraints for the conversion of interest payments pursuant to the January Amendment.

May 2008 Debenture

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 Debenture (the “May 2008 Debenture”) 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.

Original terms:

Under the original terms, the principal amount under the May 2008 Debenture was payable in 23 monthly payments of $54,348 beginning January 31, 2009.  Interest payments are payable in cash quarterly commencing on January 1, 2009. The principal and interest payments have been affected by the debt restructures as a result of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.  The Company may elect to make principal and interest payments in shares of common stock provided, generally, that the Company is not in default under the May 2008 Debenture, it has met certain equity conditions prior to the due dates and there is then in effect a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable upon conversion of the May 2008 Debenture.  If the Company elects to make principal or interest payments 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, the holder may convert the May 2008 Debenture 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”). During fiscal 2009, the conversion price was subsequently reset to $0.51 as a result of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.

Following the effective date of the registration statement described below, the Company may force conversion of the May 2008 Debenture if the market price of the common stock is at least $2.52 for 30 consecutive days. The Company may also prepay the May 2008 Debenture in cash at 120% of the then outstanding principal balance.

The May 2008 Debenture ranks senior to all current and future indebtedness of the Company, with the exception of the October 2007 Debentures that were issued by the Company which rank senior to the May 2008 Debenture.  The May 2008 Debenture is 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 October 2007 Debentures.

In connection with the financing transaction, the Company issued to the investor five-year warrants to purchase 1,488,095 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.92 per share and five-year warrants to purchase 1,488,095 shares of common stock at $1.35 per share (collectively, the “May 2008 Warrants”).

Under EITF Issue No. 00-27, the value of the May 2008 Warrants issued to the investor was calculated relative to the total amount of the debt offering. The relative fair value of the May 2008 Warrants issued to the investors was determined to be $815,471, or 65.2% of the total offering. The relative fair value of the May 2008 Warrants, along with the effective beneficial conversion feature of the debt ($434,529) and the face value discount given to the investors ($187,500), totaled in excess of the face amount of the May 2008 Debenture. As such, the Company recorded a debt discount equal to the face value of the May 2008 Debenture of $1,250,000. The debt discount is being amortized by the Company to interest expense through the maturity date of the May 2008 Debenture. The debt discount has been affected by the debt restructures as a result of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.

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 2008 Debenture and exercise of the May 2008 Warrants within 45 days after the closing date of the transaction. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, on July 14, 2008 the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1, which became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 28, 2008. As a result of a timely filing, The Company was not subject to any liquidated damages as described in the registration rights agreement. 

Financing fees of $191,875 including placement agent fees of $116,875 and legal and other fees of $75,000 were paid in cash from the gross proceeds of the May 2008 Debenture.  National Securities Corporation (“National Securities”) acted as sole placement agent in connection with the financing transaction. Also, in connection with the financing transaction, the Company issued National Securities five-year warrants to purchase 148,810 shares of the Company’s common stock exercisable at $0.84 per share. The value of the warrants issued to National Securities as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $117,530.

The total financing fees of $309,405 related to the financing transaction have been allocated to the equity and debt components of the financing. The Company has recorded 65.2% of the financing fees ($201,732) as costs related to the issuance of the equity instruments, and as such has netted those amounts against additional paid-in capital as of the date of the financing. The remaining 34.8% ($107,673) were recorded as deferred financing fees. The deferred financing fees have been amortized by the Company through the maturity date of the May 2008 Debenture on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method. The deferred financing fees have been affected by the debt restructures as a result of the January Amendment discussed in further detail below.

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.

January 2009 Amendment:

Effective January 27, 2009 the October 2007 and May 2008 Convertible Debenture Agreements were amended to reflect changes to the monthly redemptions of principal, the quarterly payments of interest and changes to the October 2007 and May 2008 Warrants related to the original October 2007 and May 2008 Debentures.  Under the terms of the January 27, 2009 Amendment (the “January Amendment”), the “Conversion Price” of the debentures was reset from $0.84 to $0.51, monthly principal redemptions were deferred until August 1, 2009 and the remaining principal due on each of the debentures will be paid thereafter on the first date of each month in twelve equal installments through July 1, 2010, the amended maturity date.  During the deferral period interest payments due from January 1, 2009 through July 1, 2009 may be paid monthly by the Company in common stock shares at a conversion rate of $0.40 given that it has met certain equity conditions prior to the due date of the interest payments.  If the equity conditions are not met, the Company may add the monthly interest payment to the principal balance of the debenture.

Further, the January Amendment reset the “Exercise Price” of the October 2007 and May 2008 Warrants issued in connection with the October 2007 and May 2008 Debentures Agreements and related agreements from the then current exercise prices of $0.60, $0.92 and $1.35 to $0.60 and extended the expiration dates of the October 2007 warrants to January 1, 2014. The number of shares to be purchased under the October 2007 and May 2008 warrants were proportionately increased under the terms of the amendments so that the original dollar amounts to be raised by registrant though the exercise of each of the warrants and the proportional number of warrants issued to each Debenture Holder remained the same.   As a result, the number of Common stock shares to be purchased under the May 2008 Warrants increased by 2,653,770 to 5,629,960.

Under the terms of the January Amendment, in February 2009, the Company issued a total of 79,200 restricted common shares valued at $32,472 to the May 2008 Debenture Holder.

The January Amendment to the May 2008 Debenture has been accounted for by the Company as an extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF Issue No. 96-19 and EITF Issue No. 06-6.  The Company determined that the net present value of the cash flows under the terms of the January Amendment was more than 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original May 2008 Debenture agreement.  Due to the substantial difference, the Company determined an extinguishment of debt had occurred with the January Amendment.  Accordingly, the Company recorded the amended May 2008 Debenture at its fair value of $526,950 as of January 27, 2009, the date of extinguishment.  The increase in the fair value of the amended May 2008 Debentures from the carrying value of the original May 2008 Debentures at the date of debt extinguishment amounted to $193,614 and was recorded as a loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009. A new debt discount of $723,050 was recorded in connection with the debt extinguishment from January Amendment to the May 2008 Debenture.  The debt discount is being amortized through the July 1, 2010 amended maturity date of the May 2008 Debenture.

The increase in value of the May 2008 Warrants arising from the change in conversion price and the additional number of warrants issued of $1,092,028 has been accounted for as a payment to the debt holders in connection with the debt extinguishment and included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.  In addition the fair value of the 79,200 shares issued to the May 2008 Debenture holder totaled $32,472 and has been accounted for as a payment to the debt holders in connection with the debt extinguishment and included in the loss on debt extinguishment for the year ended March 31, 2009.

Private Placement Debentures

In March 2009 the Company entered into an Agency Agreement with a broker to raise capital in a private placement offering of one-year convertible debentures under Regulation D (the “Private Placement Debentures”).   From March through June 2009, the Company intends to raise up to a maximum of $1,500,000 under this private placement offering of convertible debenture debt.  On March 31, 2009, the Company had received initial gross proceeds of $60,000 under this private placement offering of convertible debentures.  Related to the issuance of the convertible debentures, the Company accrued for commissions to the broker totaling $3,600 which have been capitalized as deferred financing costs. The deferred financing costs will be amortized to interest expense by the Company through the maturity dates of the debentures on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method.

The Company may elect to make principal redemptions on the maturity dates of the debentures in shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.51. At any time, holders may convert the debentures into shares of common stock at the fixed conversion price of $0.51. The conversion price is subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues the next equity financing of at least $2,500,000 at a price below $0.51.

Per the terms of the convertible debenture agreements, the notes have a term of one year from issuance and are redeemable by the Company with two days notice.  The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.51.  As of March 31, 2009 the balance of these convertible notes was $60,000 and accrued interest was zero.

In connection with the financing transaction, the Company issued to the investors five-year warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to purchase 23,529 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.51 per share. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues the next equity financing of at least $2,500,000 at a price below $0.51.
