Scivanta Medical Corporation
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements
 
1.
Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
 
Organization and Description of Business
 
Scivanta Medical Corporation (“Scivanta” or the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation headquartered in Spring Lake, New Jersey. The Company ceased selling all products during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004 and has not had any significant recurring revenue from the sale of products since the second quarter of 2003.
 
On November 10, 2006, the Company acquired the exclusive world-wide rights to develop, make and sell certain proprietary technologies known as the Hickey Cardiac Monitoring System (the “HCMS”), a minimally invasive two-balloon esophageal catheter system used to monitor cardiac performance. The HCMS is currently in the development stage and the Company anticipates that it will take approximately 11 to 14 months from the date of this report to complete development and related clinical trials. In addition, the Company must also receive the appropriate regulatory approvals before the HCMS can be marketed in the United States or abroad. No assurance can be given that the Company will receive the appropriate regulatory approvals to market the HCMS.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period to which this report relates. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of October 31, 2007 and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
Management believes the funds currently available to the Company will be sufficient to support planned operations through April 1, 2009. However, management believes that the Company will likely require additional capital to complete the development of the HCMS and to be able to acquire additional products and technologies.

License and Development Agreements
 
HCMS License Agreement
 
On November 10, 2006, the Company entered into a technology license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with The Research Foundation of State University of New York, for and on behalf of the University at Buffalo (the “Foundation”), Donald D. Hickey, M.D. (“Hickey”) and Clas E. Lundgren (“Lundgren”). The Foundation, Hickey and Lundgren shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Licensor.”
 
Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Licensor granted the Company the exclusive world-wide rights to develop, manufacture and distribute the HCMS, a minimally invasive two-balloon esophageal catheter system used to monitor cardiac performance. The term of the License Agreement commenced on November 10, 2006 and ends on the latter of (1) the expiration date of the last to expire patent right related to the HCMS which is currently June 12, 2018 or (2) ten years from the sale of the first HCMS product.
 
The Company agreed to make an initial payment to the Licensor of $264,300 which was subsequently reduced to $262,957 pursuant to an amendment to the License Agreement dated June 29, 2007 (see Note 4). The Company has paid a total of $120,900 ($40,900 on November 16, 2006 and $80,000 on October 31, 2007) and is required to pay $142,057 on or before November 1, 2008.
 
The Company also is required to pay the Licensor a royalty of 5% on annual net sales, as defined in the License Agreement, subject to certain reductions as detailed in the License Agreement. Beginning with the first full year of sales of the HCMS in the United States and for two years thereafter, the Company is required to pay an annual minimum royalty of $100,000 to the Licensor against which any royalty on net sales paid in the same calendar year for sales in the United States will be credited. Further, beginning with the first full year of sales of the HCMS outside the United States and for two years thereafter, the Company is required to pay an annual minimum royalty of $100,000 to the Licensor against which any royalty on net sales paid in the same calendar year for sales outside the United States will be credited. In addition, the Company is required to pay the Licensor 25% of all sublicensing revenue received by the Company in connection with the HCMS and is obligated to make milestone payments to the Licensor as follows: (1) first insertion of a catheter utilizing the HCMS in a human clinical trial - $75,000; (2) first submission of the HCMS for regulatory approval in any country - $100,000; and (3) first notice of regulatory approval to market the HCMS in any country - $150,000. As of January 31, 2008, none of the milestones had been met and no payments were due to the Licensor.
 
On June 27, 2007, the Company and the Foundation entered into a subcontractor agreement. Pursuant to this agreement, the Foundation contracted the Company to develop the software and hardware components of the HCMS outlined in the technology incentive program contract awarded by the New York State Office of Science Technology and Academic Research (“NYSTAR”) to the Foundation and the Foundation’s company partner, Ethox International, Inc. (“Ethox”), on December 1, 2005 (the “NYSTAR Contract”). The initial term of the NYSTAR Contract was for a 2 year period ended November 30, 2007, which was extended by NYSTAR for an additional 1 year period ending November 30, 2008.

On June 29, 2007, the Company amended the License Agreement to allow the Licensor to enter into a non-exclusive manufacturing license agreement with Ethox, entered into on June 29, 2007, whereby Ethox was granted the right to manufacture the catheter component of the HCMS for Scivanta.
 
As a result of the subcontractor agreement, the amended License Agreement and the non-exclusive manufacturing license agreement between the Licensor and Ethox, the development of the HCMS will be partially funded through the NYSTAR Contract. Pursuant to the terms of the NYSTAR Contract, up to $937,500 of funding is available for the development of the HCMS with the State of New York providing $750,000 of the funding and Ethox providing $187,500 of the funding. Ethox is also required to provide $562,500 of in-kind contributions. Pursuant to the development agreement between Scivanta and Ethox dated June 29, 2007 (see Catheter Development Agreement), Scivanta will provide Ethox with the $187,500 of cash required under the NYSTAR Contract while Ethox will provide the $562,500 of in-kind contributions (primarily contributed services). The funding received from the NYSTAR Contract will partially support the development of: the catheter component of the HCMS by Ethox (see Catheter Development Agreement); the software component of the HCMS by Applied Sciences Group, Inc. (“ASG”) (see Software Development Agreement); and the hardware component of the HCMS by Sparton Medical Systems (“Sparton”) (see Hardware Development Agreement). Under the terms of the subcontractor agreement between the Foundation and the Company, the Foundation, utilizing the $937,500 of funding provided under the NYSTAR Contract, will reimburse the Company up to $899,500 of allowable expenditures incurred by the Company in connection with the development of the software and hardware components of the HCMS. 
 
During the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company submitted to the Foundation for reimbursement $72,424 of expenses related to the software and hardware development of the HCMS, which was recorded by the Company as a reduction to research and development expenses. Of this amount, $15,341 has been received by the Company and $57,083 is included in other receivables as of January 31, 2008.
 
Catheter Development Agreement
 
On June 29, 2007, the Company and Ethox entered into a development agreement whereby Ethox will provide Scivanta engineering and development support for the catheter component of the HCMS in exchange for the rights to manufacture the component upon regulatory approval and commercialization of the HCMS and a cash payment of $187,500 to be made in connection with the NYSTAR Contract funding discussed above. The cash payment of $187,500 will be paid in installments over the next 4 to 10 months in amounts that will be based on Ethox’s funding requirements as specified in the NYSTAR Contract. On September 12, 2007, Scivanta paid $46,875 to Ethox as partial payment of the NYSTAR Contract funding requirement. This amount was recorded as a prepaid expense by the Company and is being expensed as research and development occurs pursuant to the NYSTAR Contract. During the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company recorded $24,141 of research and development expense related to the NYSTAR Contract payment. As of January 31, 2008, the balance of the prepaid expense related to the NYSTAR Contract payment was $4,924.

The development agreement has a two year term which may be extended up to six additional months. The services to be provided by Ethox include: (1) the management of project costs and project schedule, (2) the development of system functional specifications based on marketing inputs, (3) the development of disposable catheter specifications to achieve functional requirements, (4) the manufacturing of disposable catheters in accordance with applicable requirements for clinical trials, and (5) the provision of regulatory resources for the management of clinical submissions for marketing approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency. Pursuant to the development agreement, Scivanta is responsible for the selection and costs of all raw materials and for the packaging design. During the term of the development agreement and for a period of twelve months thereafter, Ethox will not participate in the design, development, creation or production of a double balloon catheter to be used as part of a cardiac monitoring system. The development agreement also contains standard provisions regarding indemnification and termination.
 
Terms for the manufacturing of the catheter component of the HCMS are contained in a supply agreement which will be entered into by Scivanta and Ethox upon regulatory approval of the HCMS. The supply agreement will have a four year term commencing on the date of the first commercial production of the catheter component of the HCMS, and thereafter shall renew on an annual basis unless terminated by either party in accordance with the supply agreement. The supply agreement will also contain a minimum order requirement, a pricing schedule and will provide for an additional payment to Ethox of up to $535,000, which will be paid to Ethox over the term of the supply agreement on a per unit basis based on the minimum number of units that the Company is required to order under the supply agreement.
 
As noted above, during the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company recorded $24,141 of research and development expense related to this development agreement. The Company did not record any research and development expense related to this development agreement during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007.
 
Software Development Agreement
 
On July 2, 2007, the Company entered into a development agreement with ASG. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, ASG will provide software engineering services to Scivanta on the continuing development of the HCMS. The fees to be charged by ASG related to this agreement could range between $335,000 and $400,000. Scivanta can terminate the agreement at any time upon written notification.
 
The Company recorded $29,148 of research and development expense related to this development agreement during the three months ended January 31, 2008. The Company did not record any research and development expense related to this development agreement during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007.

Hardware Development Agreement
 
On August 22, 2007, Scivanta and Sparton, a business group of Sparton Electronics Florida, Inc., entered into a development agreement whereby Sparton will provide Scivanta engineering and development support for the hardware component of the HCMS. The development agreement has a one year term and may be extended for additional one year terms. The development agreement can be terminated at any time by either party upon the delivery of written notice to the other party. The services to be provided by Sparton include: (1) planning and development of design control documents, (2) concept development, including mechanical, electrical and software design, (3) completion of a detailed design and an engineering model, (4) assembly of proto-type models and preliminary design verification testing, (5) the production of “pilot” devices using formal drawings and validated processes, and (6) design verification testing on the “pilot” units.
 
Pursuant to the development agreement, Scivanta made a deposit of $60,000 on September 6, 2007, which will be applied to the payment of material costs and fees owed by Scivanta under the development agreement provided that Scivanta makes timely payments to Sparton during the first four months of the development agreement. Scivanta is also required to pre-pay for any material with a cost in excess of $5,000. It is estimated that up to $1,650,000 could be billed by Sparton for services and materials provided under the development agreement.
 
The Company recorded $43,276 of research and development expense related to this development agreement during the three months ended January 31, 2008. The Company did not record any research and development expense related to this development agreement during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007.

The Company paid $40,900 on November 16, 2006 and $80,000 on October 31, 2007 and is required to pay $142,057 on or before November 1, 2008. This payment obligation is non-interest bearing.
 
The Company recorded a note payable of $235,557 based on the present value of the original payment obligation, as amended, with a corresponding discount rate of 8%. The difference between the present value of the original payment obligation, as amended ($235,557), and the face value of the original payment obligation, as amended ($262,957), is being accreted as interest expense through the maturity date of the payment obligation (total imputed interest of $27,400). During the three months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recognized $2,675 and $4,175, respectively, of interest expense related to the note payable.

5.
Convertible Debentures
 
On February 8, 2007, the Company closed on a private placement of 8% convertible debentures dated February 1, 2007 (the “February 2007 Debentures”). The gross proceeds received in connection with this private placement were $250,000, which are being used for working capital purposes, including the development of the HCMS. The February 2007 Debentures have a 3 year term, maturing on January 31, 2010, and bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum. Interest is payable in annual installments, beginning on February 1, 2008, in cash or, at the option of the Company, in shares of the Company’s common stock. If the Company elects to pay the interest in shares of the Company’s common stock, the number of shares issued as payment will be equal to the quotient of the unpaid interest divided by the market price of the Company’s common stock as defined in the February 2007 Debentures.

Up to 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the February 2007 Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holders at a conversion price of $0.20 per share. The remaining 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the February 2007 Debentures are convertible at the option of the holders at any time after February 1, 2008 at a conversion price of $0.30 per share. The fair value of the Company’s common stock as of February 1, 2007 was $0.20 per share. An aggregate amount of 1,041,667 shares of common stock can be issued pursuant to the February 2007 Debentures. The February 2007 Debentures contain demand registration rights upon the request of the holders of more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding February 2007 Debentures or the securities issuable upon the conversion of the February 2007 Debentures. The Company has determined that the value attributable to the demand registration rights is de minimis.
 
For the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company recorded a total of $5,000 of interest expense related to the February 2007 Debentures. This amount is accrued as of January 31, 2008.

Stock-based compensation expense for non-employees during the three months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $2,294 and $14,968, respectively. Refer to Note 5 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 for information on the valuation and accounting for the grant of stock options and the issuance of warrants. Also, see Note 9 for information regarding the valuation of options and warrants issued during the three months ended January 31, 2008.
 
During the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company granted 250,000 options to its employees (estimated fair value of $17,498 at the date of grant) and granted 81,000 options to its directors (estimated fair value of $5,670). In addition, during the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company issued warrants to purchase 160,000 shares of common stock of the Company (estimated fair value of $11,471 at the date of issuance) to consultants (see Note 9).

During the three months ended January 31, 2007, the Company granted no options to its employees and issued a warrant to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock of the Company (estimated fair value of $27,496 at the date of issuance) to a consultant (see Note 9).
 
7.
Net Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the impact of common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of convertible debt, provided that the exercise price of the stock options and warrants and the conversion price of the convertible debt is less than the average market price of the common stock during the period. In periods where a net loss exists, diluted net loss per share is calculated using basic common shares outstanding since including potential common shares from the exercise of stock options and warrants would be anti-dilutive.
 
For the three months ended January 31, 2008, diluted net loss per share did not include the effect of 1,801,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options, 1,976,682 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants and 1,041,677 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
For the three months ended January 31, 2007, diluted net loss per share did not include the effect of 370,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options, 1,624,998 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants and 2,250,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
8.
Income Taxes
 
On November 1, 2007, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the criteria for recognizing tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and requires additional financial statement disclosure. FIN 48 requires that the Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Adoption of FIN 48 had no net impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

The Company has approximately $13,420,076 and $8,556,584 in federal and state net operating loss carryovers, respectively, which were generated through October 31, 2007 and are available to offset future taxable income in fiscal years 2008 through 2026. The net operating losses for federal income tax purposes begin to expire in 2022 and for state income tax purposes begin to expire in 2010. The valuation allowance increased $370,040 during the three months ended January 31, 2008, attributable primarily to net operating losses.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
Executive Employment Agreements
 
On January 1, 2008, the Company entered into an executive employment agreement with each of David R. LaVance, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Thomas S. Gifford, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”). The term of each of the Employment Agreements commenced on January 1, 2008 and ends on December 31, 2010, but can be renewed for successive one year periods unless terminated as provided in the Employment Agreements. Both Messers. LaVance and Gifford shall be paid an annual base salary of $275,000, which may be increased by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. In addition, both Messers. LaVance and Gifford shall participate in the Company’s benefit programs and shall be eligible to receive an annual performance bonus based on the achievement of certain performance objectives as determined by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors.
 
In the event that Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford is terminated without Good Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreements and used herein), or Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford terminates his employment for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreements and used herein), Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive a severance payment equal to his annual base salary in effect on the date of termination.
 
In addition, in the event that within 180 days of a Change of Control (as defined in the Employment Agreements and used herein) of the Company, the employment of Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford is terminated by the Company or its successor without Good Cause, or Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford terminates his employment with the Company or its successor for Good Reason, Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford, as the case may be, shall be paid a severance payment; provided however, that if the termination of employment occurs prior to the Change of Control, the Change of Control must have been considered by the Company at the time of termination for Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford to be entitled to the severance payment. The amount of the severance payment will be equal to two times the sum of Mr. LaVance’s or Mr. Gifford’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the termination of Mr. LaVance’s of Mr. Gifford’s employment and an amount which is the lesser of (1) $150,000 and (2) the aggregate amount of any bonuses paid to Mr. LaVance or Mr. Gifford during the 12 months prior to the earlier of (A) the effective date of the Change of Control and (B) the date Mr. LaVance’s or Mr. Gifford’s employment terminates with the Company.

Item 2.
Management Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
 
General
 
Certain information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB and other filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as well as information communicated orally or in writing between the dates of such filings, contains or may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements are subject to certain risks, trends and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Among these risks, trends and uncertainties are economic conditions both generally and in the industries in which the Company may participate; competition within the Company’s chosen industries, including competition from much larger competitors; technological advances; available capital; regulatory approvals; and failure by the Company to successfully develop or acquire products and form new business relationships.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the interim financial statements contained elsewhere herein, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements required the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. The Company based its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
The critical accounting estimates that the Company believes affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of the financial statements contained elsewhere herein are described in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation and in the Notes to the Financial Statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies.
 
Results of Operations

Net Sales. The Company discontinued all product sales during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, and currently does not have any recurring revenue. On November 10, 2006, the Company acquired the exclusive world-wide rights to develop, manufacture and distribute the HCMS, a minimally invasive two-balloon esophageal catheter system used to monitor cardiac performance. The HCMS is currently in the development stage and the Company anticipates that it will take approximately 11 to 14 months from the date of this report to complete development and related clinical trials. In addition, the Company must also receive the appropriate regulatory approvals before the HCMS can be marketed in the United States or abroad. No assurance can be given that the Company will receive the appropriate regulatory approvals to market the HCMS.

Research and Development. For the three months ended January 31, 2008, research and development expenses, on a net basis, were $33,215, which consisted of gross research and development expenses of $105,639 offset by $72,424 of research and development expenses reimbursed by the Foundation. For the three months ended January 31, 2007, research and development expenses were $236,900. The $203,685, or 86%, decrease in research and development expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2008 was primarily due to a $236,900 reduction in license costs related to the HCMS offset by a $33,215 net increase in software and hardware development costs for the HCMS.

Research and development expenses are expected to significantly increase in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2008 as the Company continues the development of the HCMS.

General and Administrative. For the three months ended January 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses were $392,999, as compared to $394,426 for the three months ended January 31, 2007, representing a less than 1% decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2008.
 
General and administrative expenses overall may increase in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2008 as the Company continues to build the administrative infrastructure necessary to support the development and marketing of the HCMS.

Other Income (Expenses). During the three months ended January 31, 2007, the Company recorded $450,000 of other income related to the settlement of the litigation with Syntho Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its principal owner, Muhammed Malik (collectively, the “Syntho Group”).

During the three months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company incurred interest expense of $7,675 and $10,224, respectively. The $2,549, or 25%, decrease in interest expense for the three months ended January 31, 2008 was due to a decrease in interest expense associated with convertible debentures that matured and were either repaid or converted in May 2007, offset by an increase in interest expense associated with the February 2007 Debentures.

Interest income for three months ended January 31, 2008 and 2007 was $20,868 and $3,058, respectively. The $17,810 increase in interest income for the three months ended January 31, 2008 was primarily due to an increase in short-term investments.

Net Loss. For the three months ended January 31, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $413,021 or $0.02 per share (basic and diluted), as compared to a net loss of $188,492 or $0.01 per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ended January 31, 2007. The increase in the net loss was primarily attributable to a $450,000 decrease in other income related to the settlement of the litigation with the Syntho Group offset by a $203,685 decrease in research and development expenses primarily attributable to license costs for the HCMS.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of January 31, 2008, the Company had working capital of $1,773,927. As of January 31, 2008, cash on hand was $1,848,830, a decrease of $160,079 from October 31, 2007. The decrease in cash on hand was primarily due to a $9,864 increase in prepaid expenses and other, a $7,604 decrease in accounts payable and related party accounts payable and a $80,530 decrease in accrued expenses. These decreases in cash were offset by the receipt of $306,803 of net proceeds related to the sale state tax losses, as discussed below.

During the past several years, the Company has generally sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. The Company currently does not generate any revenue from operations. The Company’s operations most recently have been funded through a combination of the sale of its convertible debentures and common stock, proceeds received from the settlement of litigation and the sale of its State of New Jersey tax losses.

On December 19, 2007, the Company received $306,803 of net proceeds related to the sale of a portion of its unused net operating loss carryovers for the State of New Jersey to a third party through the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (the “NJEDA”) Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program. The Company will use these proceeds to continue the development of the HCMS and for working capital purposes.
 
As of February 29, 2008, the Company’s cash position was approximately $1,650,000. The Company estimates that the cash on hand is sufficient in order to continue its operations and to continue the development of the HCMS, on a reduced basis, through April 1, 2009.
 
The Company believes that additional capital will be required in order to complete the development of the HCMS, to acquire and develop additional products and technologies and to otherwise implement its strategy for business development. The Company currently does not have any lending relationships with commercial banks and does not anticipate establishing such relationships in the foreseeable future due to its limited operations and assets. Management believes that the Company will have to focus on obtaining additional capital through the private placement of its securities. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such capital might be available. In addition, the Company will apply in 2008 to the NJEDA to participate in the NJEDA Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program, to the extent that the Company has New Jersey tax losses and credits that can be sold. There can be no assurance that the Company will be approved by the NJEDA in 2008 to participate in the NJEDA Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program or that the State of New Jersey will continue the program.

Expenditures under the Company’s development agreements with Ethox, ASG and Sparton are at the Company’s discretion. The Company estimates that it could potentially spend between $1,000,000 and $1,400,000 related to these agreements over the next 12 months. In addition, the Company estimates that approximately $811,000 remains available to it under the NYSTAR Contract and could be reimbursed to it by the Foundation. In addition, the Company could be obligated to make the three milestone payments pursuant to the License Agreement ($325,000 in aggregate) during the next 12 months provided that it is successful in maintaining the current development schedule for the HCMS.

Item 3.
Controls and Procedures
 
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the Company’s last fiscal quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s current management, including the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), who concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. During the Company’s last fiscal quarter, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
