Because it is a summary, it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. To understand this offering fully, you should read this entire prospectus and the financial statements and related notes included in this prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors" section. Unless the context requires otherwise, "WE," "US," "OUR", " and the "COMPANY" and similar terms collectively refer to Aethlon Medical, Inc. THE COMPANY We are a development stage medical device company focused on expanding the applications of our Hemopurifier (R) platform technology, which is designed to rapidly reduce the presence of infectious viruses and other toxins from human blood. In this regard, our core focus is the development of therapeutic devices that treat acute viral conditions, chronic viral diseases and pathogens targeted as potential biological warfare agents. The Hemopurifier(R) combines the established scientific principles of affinity chromatography and hemodialysis as a means to mimic the immune system's response of clearing viruses and toxins from the blood before cell and organ infection can occur. The Hemopurifier(R) cannot cure viral conditions but can prevent virus and toxins from infecting unaffected tissues and cells. We have completed pre-clinical blood testing of the Hemopurifier(R) to treat HIV and Hepatitis-C, and have completed human safety trials on Hepatitis-C infected patients in India and are in the process of obtaining regulatory approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA")to initiate clinical trials in the United States. The commercialization of the Hemopurifier(R) will likely require the completion of human efficacy clinical trials. The approval of any application of the Hemopurifier(R) in the United States will necessitate the approval of the FDA to initiate human studies. Such studies could take years to demonstrate safety and effectiveness in humans and there is no assurance that the Hemopurifier(R) will be cleared by the FDA as a device we can market to the medical community. We also expect to face similar regulatory challenges from foreign regulatory agencies, should we attempt to commercialize and market the Hemopurifier(R) outside of the United States. As a result, we have not generated revenues from the sale of any Hemopurifier(R) application. Additionally, there have been no independent validation studies of our Hemopurifiers(R) to treat infectious disease. We manufacture our products on a small scale for testing purposes but have yet to manufacture our products on a large scale for commercial purposes. All of our pre-clinical human blood studies have been conducted in our laboratories under the direction of Dr. Richard Tullis, our Chief Science Officer. As of March 27, 2007, we had issued and outstanding 32,518,548 common shares, and common share purchase options and warrants entitling the holders to purchase up to 20,054,309 common shares. We are a Nevada corporation. Our principal executive offices are located at 3030 Bunker Hill Street, Suite 4000, San Diego, California 92109. Our telephone number is (858) 459-7800. The address of our website is www.aethlonmedical.com. Information on our website is not a part of this prospectus. THE OFFERING Fusion Capital, the selling shareholder under this prospectus, is offering for sale up to 8,383,333 shares of our common stock hereto. On March 21, 2007, we entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company. Under the agreement, Fusion Capital is obligated, under certain conditions, to purchase shares from us in an aggregate amount of $8.4 million from time to time over a 25 month period. On March 27, 2007, we sold 1,333,333 shares of common stock to Fusion Capital under the agreement for total proceeds of $400,000. Under the terms of the common stock purchase agreement, Fusion Capital has received a commitment fee consisting of 1,050,000 shares of our common stock. We have reserved up to an additional 6,000,000 shares of our common stock for sale to Fusion Capital under the agreement. As of March 27, 2007, there were 32,518,548 shares outstanding (27,587,195 shares held by non-affiliates) excluding the 6,000,000 shares offered by Fusion Capital pursuant to this prospectus which it has not yet purchased from us. If all of such 8,383,333 shares offered hereby were issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, the 8,383,333 shares would represent approximately 21.8% of the total common stock outstanding or approximately 24.96% of the non-affiliate shares outstanding as of March 27, 2007. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Fusion Capital is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by Fusion Capital under the agreement. 1 We do not have the right to make any additional sales of our shares to Fusion Capital unless and until the US Securities & Exchange Commission has declared effective the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of. After the Securities & Exchange Commission has declared effective such registration statement, generally we will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time to sell our shares to Fusion Capital in amounts between $32,000 and $1.0 million depending on certain conditions. We have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Fusion Capital. The purchase price of the shares will be determined based upon the market price of our shares without any fixed discount at the time of each sale. Fusion Capital shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the price of our common stock is below $0.25. The agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. SUMMARY FINANCIAL DATA The following tables summarize the consolidated statements of operations and balance sheet data for our company.

RISK FACTORS An investment in our common shares involves a high degree of risk and is subject to many uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In such an event, the trading price for our common shares could decline substantially, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In order to attain an appreciation for these risks and uncertainties, you should read this prospectus in its entirety and consider all of the information and advisements contained in this prospectus, including the following risk factors and uncertainties. RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WITH SIGNIFICANT LOSSES AND EXPECT LOSSES TO CONTINUE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. We have not had any significant revenues from our principal operations. We have incurred annual operating losses of $2,094,939, $2,183,377 and $995,549, respectively, during the past three fiscal years of operation and an operating loss of $1,504,427 in the nine months ended December 31, 2006. At March 31, 2006, we had an accumulated deficit of $22,062,447. We have incurred net losses from continuing operations of $2,920,183 and $2,096,951 for the fiscal years ending March 31, 2006 and 2005 and $1,787,569 and $2,069,698 for the nine months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. As a result, at December 31, 2006, we had an accumulated deficit of $23,850,016. Our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations. We expect that our revenues will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will require the successful commercialization of our Hemopurifier(R) technology. No assurances can be given when or if this will occur or that we will ever generate revenues or be profitable. 2 WE HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION FROM OUR AUDITORS REGARDING OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN Our independent auditors noted in their report accompanying our financial statements for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 that we had a significant deficit accumulated during the development stage, had a working capital deficit and that a significant amount of additional capital will be necessary to advance the development of our products to the point at which we may become commercially viable and stated that those conditions raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Note 1 to our financial statements addressed management's plans to address these matters. We cannot assure you that our business plans will be successful in addressing these issues. This opinion about our ability to continue as a going concern could affect our ability to obtain additional financing at favorable terms, if at all, as such an opinion may cause investors to lose faith in our long term prospects. If we cannot successfully continue as a going concern, our shareholders may lose their entire investment in our common shares. WE WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO SUSTAIN OUR OPERATIONS AND WITHOUT IT WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS; OUR AGREEMENT WITH FUSION CAPITAL MAY NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT OPERATING CAPTIAL FOR US. At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2006, we had a working capital deficit of $1,920,663 and $2,867,894, respectively. The independent auditors' report for the year ended March 31, 2006, includes an explanatory paragraph stating that our recurring losses from operations and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We had a net operating cash flow deficit of $1,284,359 for the nine months ended December 31, 2006, a net operating cash flow deficit of $1,584,281 for the year ended March 31, 2006 and a net operating cash flow deficit of $1,559,366 for the year ended March 31, 2005. Although we have entered into the common stock purchase agreement with Fusion Capital we will may not have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations or those of our subsidiaries. Therefore, we may need additional funds to continue these operations. If we are unable to obtain such funds on terms acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our operations. We only have the right to receive $32,000 every two business days under the agreement with Fusion Capital unless our stock price equals or exceeds $0.30, in which case we can sell greater amounts to Fusion Capital as the price of our common stock increases. Fusion Capital shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the market price of our common stock is less than $0.25. Since we are registering 6,000,000 shares that we may sell to Fusion Capital pursuant to this prospectus not including the commitment shares or the 1,333,333 shares already purchased by Fusion Capital, the selling price of our common stock to Fusion Capital will have to average at least approximately $1.33 per share for us to receive the remaining proceeds of $8,000,000. Assuming a purchase price of $0.75 per share (the closing sale price of the common stock on March 27, 2007) and the purchase by Fusion Capital of the full 7,333,333 shares under the common stock purchase agreement, proceeds to us would only be $4,900,000 which includes the initial purchase of 1,333,333 shares for $400,000. The extent to which we rely on Fusion Capital as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources, such as through the sale of our products. Specifically, Fusion Capital shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business days that the market price of our common stock is less than $0.25. If obtaining sufficient financing from Fusion Capital were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive and if we are unable to generate cash from the sale of enough of our products, we will need to secure another source of funding in order to satisfy our working capital needs. Even if we are able to access the full $8,4000,000 under the common stock purchase agreement with Fusion Capital, we may still need additional capital to fully implement our business, operating and development plans. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable to us on reasonable terms when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects. WE MAY FAIL TO OBTAIN GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS TO DEVELOP OUR HEMOPURIFIER(R) TECHNOLOGY FOR BIODEFENSE APPLICATIONS. The U.S. Government has undertaken commitments to help secure improved countermeasures against bioterrorism. To date, we have been unsuccessful in obtaining grant income. As a result, future attempts to obtain grant income from the Federal Government will be sought through direct communication to government health and military agencies, and may include unsolicited proposals to provide the Hemopurifier(R) as a treatment countermeasure. 3 At present, the Hemopurifier(R) has not been approved for use by any U.S. Government agency, nor have we received any contracts to purchase the Hemopurifier(R). Since inception, we have not generated revenues from the sale of any product based on our Hemopurifier(R) technology platform. The process of obtaining government contracts is lengthy with the uncertainty that we will be successful in obtaining announced grants or contracts for therapeutics as a medical device technology. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be awarded any U.S. Government grants or contracts utilizing our Hemopurifier(R) platform technology. IF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT FAILS TO PURCHASE SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES OF ANY FUTURE BIODEFENSE CANDIDATE UTILIZING OUR HEMOPURIFIER(R) PLATFORM TECHNOLOGY, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO GENERATE SUFFICIENT REVENUES TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS. We cannot be certain of the timing or availability of any future funding from the U.S. Government, and substantial delays or cancellations of funding could result from protests or challenges from third parties once such funding is obtained. If we develop products utilizing our Hemopurifier(R) platform technology that are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), but the U.S. Government does not place sufficient orders for these products, our future business will be harmed. U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES HAVE SPECIAL CONTRACTING REQUIREMENTS, WHICH CREATE ADDITIONAL RISKS. Our business plan to provide biodefense product candidates may involve contracts with the U.S. Government. U.S. Government contracts typically contain unfavorable termination provisions and are subject to audit and modification by the government at its sole discretion, which subjects us to additional risks. These risks include the ability of the U.S. Government to unilaterally: o suspend or prevent us for a period of time from receiving new contracts or extending existing contracts based on violations or suspected violations of laws or regulations; o audit and object to our contract-related costs and fees, including allocated indirect costs; o control and potentially prohibit the export of our products; and o change certain terms and conditions in our contracts. If we were to become a U.S. Government contractor, we would be required to comply with applicable laws, regulations and standards relating to our accounting practices and would be subject to periodic audits and reviews. As part of any such audit or review, the U.S. Government may review the adequacy of, and our compliance with, our internal control systems and policies, including those relating to our purchasing, property, estimating, compensation and management information systems. Based on the results of its audits, the U.S. Government may adjust our contract-related costs and fees, including allocated indirect costs. In addition, if an audit or review uncovers any improper or illegal activity, we would possibly be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of our contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspension or prohibition from doing business with the U.S. Government. We could also suffer serious harm to our reputation if allegations of impropriety were made against us. Although adjustments arising from government audits and reviews have not seriously harmed our business in the past, future audits and reviews could cause adverse effects. In addition, under U.S. Government purchasing regulations, some of our costs, including most financing costs, amortization of intangible assets, portions of our research and development costs, and some marketing expenses, would possibly not be reimbursable or allowed under such contracts. Further, as a U.S. Government contractor, we would be subject to an increased risk of investigations, criminal prosecution, civil fraud, whistleblower lawsuits and other legal actions and liabilities to which purely private sector companies are not. WE WILL FACE INTENSE COMPETITION FROM COMPANIES THAT HAVE GREATER FINANCIAL, PERSONNEL AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT RESOURCES THAN OURS. THESE COMPETITIVE FORCES MAY IMPACT OUR PROJECTED GROWTH AND ABILITY TO GENERATE REVENUES AND PROFITS, WHICH WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS AND THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT. Our competitors are developing vaccine candidates, which could compete with the Hemopurifier(R) medical device candidates we are developing. Our commercial opportunities will be reduced or eliminated if our competitors develop and market products for any of the diseases we target that: 4 o are more effective; o have fewer or less severe adverse side effects; o are better tolerated; o are more adaptable to various modes of dosing; o are easier to administer; or o are less expensive than the products or product candidates we are developing. Even if we are successful in developing effective Hemopurifier(R) products, and obtain FDA and other regulatory approvals necessary for commercializing them, our products may not compete effectively with other successful products. Researchers are continually learning more about diseases, which may lead to new technologies for treatment. Our competitors may succeed in developing and marketing products that are either more effective than those that we may develop, alone or with our collaborators, or that are marketed before any products we develop are marketed. The Congress' passage of the Project BioShield Bill, a comprehensive effort to develop and make available modern, effective drugs and vaccines to protect against attack by biological and chemical weapons or other dangerous pathogens, may encourage competitors to develop their own product candidates. We cannot predict the decisions that will be made in the future by the various government agencies as a result of such legislation. Our competitors include fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies as well as universities and public and private research institutions. Many of the organizations competing with us, have substantially greater capital resources, larger research and development staffs and facilities, greater experience in product development and in obtaining regulatory approvals, and greater marketing capabilities than we do. The market for medical devices is intensely competitive. Many of our potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, more employees, and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, public relations, and distribution resources than we have. This intense competitive environment may require us to make changes in our products, pricing, licensing, services or marketing to develop, maintain and extend our current technology. Price concessions or the emergence of other pricing or distribution strategies of competitors may diminish our revenues (if any), adversely impact our margins or lead to a reduction in our market share (if any), any of which may harm our business. WE HAVE LIMITED MANUFACTURING EXPERIENCE. To achieve the levels of production necessary to commercialize our Hemopurifier(R) products, we will need secure manufacturing agreements with contract manufacturers which comply with good manufacturing practices standards and other standards prescribed by various federal, state and local regulatory agencies in the U.S. and any other country of use. We have limited experience manufacturing products for testing purposes and no experience manufacturing products for large scale commercial purposes. We will likely outsource the manufacture of our Hemopurifier(R) products to third parties operating FDA-certified facilities. To date, we have manufactured devices on a small scale for testing purposes. There can be no assurance that manufacturing and control problems will not arise as we attempt to commercialize our products or that such manufacturing can be completed in a timely manner or at a commercially reasonable cost. Any failure to address such problems could delay or prevent commercialization of our products and would have a material adverse effect on us. OUR HEMOPURIFIER(R) TECHNOLOGY MAY BECOME OBSOLETE. Our Hemopurifier(R) products may be made unmarketable by new scientific or technological developments where new treatment modalities are introduced that are more efficacious and/or more economical than our Hemopurifier(R) products. The Homeland Security industry is growing rapidly with many competitors trying to develop products or vaccines to protect against infectious disease. Any one of our competitors could develop a more effective product which would render our technology obsolete. OUR USE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, CHEMICALS AND VIRUSES REQUIRE US TO COMPLY WITH REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND EXPOSES US TO POTENTIAL LIABILITIES. 5 Our research and development involves the controlled use of hazardous materials, chemicals and viruses. The primary hazardous materials include chemicals needed to construct the Hemopurifier(R) cartridges and the infected plasma samples used in preclinical testing of the Hemopurifier(R). All other chemicals are fully inventoried and reported to the appropriate authorities, such as the fire department, who inspect the facility on a regular basis. We are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of such materials. Although we believe that our safety procedures for the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of such materials comply with the standards prescribed by federal, state, local and foreign regulations, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. We have had no incidents or problems involving hazardous chemicals or biological samples. In the event of such an accident, we could be held liable for significant damages or fines. We currently carry a limited amount of insurance to protect us from these damages. In addition, we may be required to incur significant costs to comply with regulatory requirements in the future. WE ARE DEPENDENT FOR OUR SUCCESS ON A FEW KEY EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. OUR INABILITY TO RETAIN THOSE OFFICERS WOULD IMPEDE OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND GROWTH STRATEGIES, WHICH WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS AND THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT. Our success depends to a critical extent on the continued services of our Chief Executive Officer, James A. Joyce and our Chief Science Officer, Richard H. Tullis. Were we to lose one or more of these key executive officers, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement, which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion of limited working capital. The loss of Dr. Tullis would harm the clinical development of our products due to his unique experience with the Hemopurifier(R) technology. The loss of Dr. Tullis and/or Mr. Joyce would be detrimental to our growth as they possess unique knowledge of our business model and infectious disease which would be difficult to replace within the biotechnology field. We can give you no assurance that we can find satisfactory replacements for these key executive officers at all, or on terms that are not unduly expensive or burdensome to our company. Although Mr. Joyce and Mr. Tullis have signed employment agreements providing for their continued service to our company, these agreements will not preclude them from leaving our company. We do not currently carry key man life insurance policies on any of our key executive officers which would assist us in recouping our costs in the event of the loss of those officers. OUR INABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL COULD IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO GENERATE REVENUES AND PROFITS AND TO OTHERWISE IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND GROWTH STRATEGIES, WHICH WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS AND COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT. We currently have an extremely small staff comprised of six full time employees consisting of our Chief Executive Officer, our President, our Chief Science Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, a research scientist, a research associate and other personnel employed on a contract basis. Although we believe that these employees, together with the consultants currently engaged by our company, will be able to handle most of our additional administrative, research and development and business development in the near term, we will nevertheless be required over the longer-term to hire highly skilled managerial, scientific and administrative personnel to fully implement our business plan and growth strategies. Due to the specialized scientific nature of our business, we are highly dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, technical and managerial personal. Competition for these individuals, especially in San Diego where many biotechnology companies are located, is intense and we may not be able to attract, assimilate or retain additional highly qualified personnel in the future. We cannot assure you that we will be able to engage the services of such qualified personnel at competitive prices or at all, particularly given the risks of employment attributable to our limited financial resources and lack of an established track record. WE PLAN TO GROW RAPIDLY, WHICH WILL PLACE STRAINS ON OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND OTHER COMPANY RESOURCES TO BOTH IMPLEMENT MORE SOPHISTICATED MANAGERIAL, OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL SYSTEMS, PROCEDURES AND CONTROLS AND TO TRAIN AND MANAGE THE PERSONNEL NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENT THOSE FUNCTIONS. OUR INABILITY TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH COULD IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO GENERATE REVENUES AND PROFITS AND TO OTHERWISE IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND GROWTH STRATEGIES, WHICH WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS AND THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT. 6 We will need to significantly expand our operations to implement our longer-term business plan and growth strategies. We will also be required to manage multiple relationships with various strategic partners, technology licensors, customers, manufacturers and suppliers, consultants and other third parties. This expansion and these expanded relationships will require us to significantly improve or replace our existing managerial, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls; to improve the coordination between our various corporate functions; and to manage, train, motivate and maintain a growing employee base. The time and costs to effectuate these steps may place a significant strain on our management personnel, systems and resources, particularly given the limited amount of financial resources and skilled employees that may be available at the time. We cannot assure you that we will institute, in a timely manner or at all, the improvements to our managerial, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls necessary to support our anticipated increased levels of operations and to coordinate our various corporate functions, or that we will be able to properly manage, train, motivate and retain our anticipated increased employee base. WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN ATTRACTING AND RETAINING MANAGEMENT AND OUTSIDE INDEPENDENT MEMBERS TO OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AS A RESULT OF THEIR CONCERNS RELATING TO THEIR INCREASED PERSONAL EXPOSURE TO LAWSUITS AND SHAREHOLDER CLAIMS BY VIRTUE OF HOLDING THESE POSITIONS IN A PUBLICLY-HELD COMPANY. The directors and management of publicly traded corporations are increasingly concerned with the extent of their personal exposure to lawsuits and shareholder claims, as well as governmental and creditor claims which may be made against them, particularly in view of recent changes in securities laws imposing additional duties, obligations and liabilities on management and directors. Due to these perceived risks, directors and management are also becoming increasingly concerned with the availability of directors and officers liability insurance to pay on a timely basis the costs incurred in defending such claims. We currently do carry limited directors and officers liability insurance. Directors and officers liability insurance has recently become much more expensive and difficult to obtain. If we are unable to continue or provide directors and officers liability insurance at affordable rates or at all, it may become increasingly more difficult to attract and retain qualified outside directors to serve on our board of directors. We may lose potential independent board members and management candidates to other companies in the biotechnology field that have greater directors and officers liability insurance to insure them from liability or to biotechnology companies that have revenues or have received greater funding to date which can offer greater compensation packages. The fees of directors are also rising in response to their increased duties, obligations and liabilities as well as increased exposure to such risks. As a company with a limited operating history and limited resources, we will have a more difficult time attracting and retaining management and outside independent directors than a more established company due to these enhanced duties, obligations and liabilities. OUR INABILITY TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, INCLUDING OUR U.S. AND INTERNATIONAL PATENTS COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR PROJECTED GROWTH AND ABILITY TO GENERATE REVENUES AND PROFITS, WHICH WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS AND THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT. We rely on a combination of patents, patents pending, copyrights, trademark and trade secret laws, proprietary rights agreements and non-disclosure agreements to protect our intellectual properties. We cannot give you any assurance that these measures will prove to be effective in protecting our intellectual properties. In the case of patents, we cannot give you any assurance that our existing patents will not be invalidated, that any patents that we currently or prospectively apply for will be granted, or that any of these patents will ultimately provide significant commercial benefits. Further, competing companies may circumvent any patents that we may hold by developing products which closely emulate but do not infringe our patents. While we intend to seek patent protection for our products in selected foreign countries, those patents may not receive the same degree of protection as they would in the United States. We can give you no assurance that we will be able to successfully defend our patents and proprietary rights in any action we may file for patent infringement. Similarly, we cannot give you any assurance that we will not be required to defend against litigation involving the patents or proprietary rights of others, or that we will be able to obtain licenses for these rights. Legal and accounting costs relating to prosecuting or defending patent infringement litigation may be substantial. We believe that certain patent applications filed and/or other patents issued more recently will help to protect the proprietary nature of the Hemopurifier(R) treatment technology. 7 The Hemopurifier(R) is protected by four issued patents, three of which we own and one in which we own an exclusive license. Three additional patent applications deal with treatments for virus infection and cancer treatment, one of which we own and two of which we own exclusive licenses. We also rely on proprietary designs, technologies, processes and know-how not eligible for patent protection. We cannot give you any assurance that our competitors will not independently develop the same or superior designs, technologies, processes and know-how. While we have and will continue to enter into proprietary rights agreements with our employees and third parties giving us proprietary rights to certain technology developed by those employees or parties while engaged by our company, we can give you no assurance that courts of competent jurisdiction will enforce those agreements. IF WE FAIL TO COMPLY WITH EXTENSIVE REGULATIONS OF DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN REGULATORY AUTHORITIES, THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF OUR PRODUCT CANDIDATES COULD BE PREVENTED OR DELAYED. Our pathogen filtration devices, or Hemopurifier(R) products, are subject to extensive government regulations related to development, testing, manufacturing and commercialization in the U.S. and other countries. The determination of when and whether a product is ready for large scale purchase and potential use will be made by the U.S. government through consultation with a number of governmental agencies, including the FDA, the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Homeland Security. Our product candidates are in the pre-clinical and clinical stages of development and have not received required regulatory approval from the FDA to be commercially marketed and sold. The process of obtaining and complying with FDA and other governmental regulatory approvals and regulations is costly, time consuming, uncertain and subject to unanticipated delays. Such regulatory approval (if any) and product development requires several years. Despite the time and expense exerted, regulatory approval is never guaranteed. We also are subject to the following risks and obligations, among others. o The FDA may refuse to approve an application if they believe that applicable regulatory criteria are not satisfied. o The FDA may require additional testing for safety and effectiveness. o The FDA may interpret data from pre-clinical testing and clinical trials in different ways than we interpret them. o If regulatory approval of a product is granted, the approval may be limited to specific indications or limited with respect to its distribution. o The FDA may change their approval policies and/or adopt new regulations. Failure to comply with these or other regulatory requirements of the FDA may subject us to administrative or judicially imposed sanctions, including: o warning letters; o civil penalties; o criminal penalties; o injunctions; o product seizure or detention; o product recalls; and o total or partial suspension of productions. DELAYS IN SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETING OUR CLINICAL TRIALS COULD JEOPARDIZE OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN REGULATORY APPROVAL OR MARKET OUR HEMOPURIFIER(R) PRODUCT CANDIDATES ON A TIMELY BASIS. 8 Our business prospects will depend on our ability to complete clinical trials, obtain satisfactory results, obtain required regulatory approvals and successfully commercialize our Hemopurifier(R) product candidates. Completion of our clinical trials, announcement of results of the trials and our ability to obtain regulatory approvals could be delayed for a variety of reasons, including: o serious adverse events related to our medical device candidates; o unsatisfactory results of any clinical trial; o the failure of our principal third-party investigators to perform our clinical trials on our anticipated schedules; and/or o different interpretations of our pre-clinical and clinical data, which could initially lead to inconclusive results. Our development costs will increase if we have material delays in any clinical trial or if we need to perform more or larger clinical trials than planned. If the delays are significant, or if any of our Hemopurifier(R) product candidates do not prove to be safe or effective or do not receive required regulatory approvals, our financial results and the commercial prospects for our product candidates will be harmed. Furthermore, our inability to complete our clinical trials in a timely manner could jeopardize our ability to obtain regulatory approval. THE INDEPENDENT CLINICAL INVESTIGATORS THAT WE RELY UPON TO CONDUCT OUR CLINICAL TRIALS MAY NOT BE DILIGENT, CAREFUL OR TIMELY, AND MAY MAKE MISTAKES, IN THE CONDUCT OF OUR CLINICAL TRIALS. We depend on independent clinical investigators to conduct our clinical trials. The investigators are not our employees, and we cannot control the amount or timing of resources that they devote to our product development programs. If independent investigators fail to devote sufficient time and resources to our product development programs, or if their performance is substandard, it may delay FDA approval of our medical device candidates. These independent investigators may also have relationships with other commercial entities, some of which may compete with us. If these independent investigators assist our competitors at our expense, it could harm our competitive position. THE APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MEDICAL PRODUCTS USED TO FIGHT BIOTERRORISM ARE STILL EVOLVING, AND WE CANNOT BE CERTAIN THAT ANY PRODUCTS WE DEVELOP, IF EFFECTIVE, WOULD MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS. We are developing product candidates based upon current governmental policies regulating these medical countermeasure treatments. For instance, we intend to pursue FDA approval of our proprietary pathogen filtration devices to treat infectious agents under requirements published by the FDA that allow the FDA to approve certain medical devices used to reduce or prevent the toxicity of chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear substances based on human clinical data to demonstrate safety and immune response, and evidence of effectiveness derived from appropriate animal studies and any additional supporting data. Our business is subject to substantial risk because these policies may change suddenly and unpredictably and in ways that could impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval of these products, and we cannot guarantee that the FDA will approve our proprietary pathogen filtration devices. OUR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS MAY NOT YIELD MARKETABLE PRODUCTS DUE TO RESULTS OF STUDIES OR TRIALS, FAILURE TO ACHIEVE REGULATORY APPROVALS OR MARKET ACCEPTANCE, PROPRIETARY RIGHTS OF OTHERS OR MANUFACTURING ISSUES. Our success depends on our ability to successfully develop and obtain regulatory approval to market new filtration devices. We expect that a significant portion of the research that we will conduct will involve new and unproven technologies. Development of a product requires substantial technical, financial and human resources even if the product is not successfully completed. 9 Our previously planned products have not become marketable products due in part to our transition in 2001 from a focus on utilizing our Hemopurifier(R) technology on treating harmful metals to treating infectious diseases prior to our having completed the FDA approval process. Our transition was made in order to focus on larger markets with an urgent need for new treatment and to take advantage of the greater sense of urgency surrounding acute and chronic infectious diseases. Prior to initiating the development of infectious disease Hemopurifiers(R), we successfully completed an FDA approved Phase I human safety trial of a Hemopurifier(R) to treat aluminum and iron intoxication. Since changing the focus to infectious disease research, we have not initiated an FDA approved human clinical trial as the development of the technology is still continuing and will require both significant capital and scientific resources. Our pending products face similar challenges of obtaining successful clinical trials in route to gaining FDA approval prior to commercialization. Additionally, our limited financial resources hinder the speed of our product development due to personnel constraints. Our potential products may appear to be promising at various stages of development yet fail to reach the market for a number of reasons, including the: o lack of adequate quality or sufficient prevention benefit, or unacceptable safety during pre-clinical studies or clinical trials; o failure to receive necessary regulatory approvals; o existence of proprietary rights of third parties; and/or o inability to develop manufacturing methods that are efficient, cost-effective and capable of meeting stringent regulatory standards. THE PATENTS WE OWN COMPRISE A MAJORITY OF OUR ASSETS WHICH COULD LIMIT OUR FINANCIAL VIABILITY. The Hemopurifier(R) is protected by four issued patents, three of which we own and one which we have an exclusive license. Our exclusive license expires March 2020 and is subject to termination if the inventors have not received a minimum of $15,000 in any year during the term beginning in the second year after the Food & Drug Administration approves the Hemopurifier(R). These patents comprise a majority of our assets. At December 31, 2006, our intellectual property assets comprised 84.40% of our non-current assets, and 61.36% of all assets. If our existing patents are invalidated or if they fail to provide significant commercial benefits, it will severely hurt our financial condition as a majority of our assets would lose their value. Further, since the financial value of our patents is written down for accounting purposes over the course of their term until they expire, our assets comprised of patents will continually be written down until they lose value altogether. LEGISLATIVE ACTIONS AND POTENTIAL NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ARE LIKELY TO IMPACT OUR FUTURE FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. There have been regulatory changes, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and there may potentially be new accounting pronouncements or additional regulatory rulings which will have an impact on our future financial position and results of operations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rule changes as well as proposed legislative initiatives following the Enron bankruptcy have increased our general and administrative costs as we have incurred increased legal and accounting fees to comply with such rule changes. Further, proposed initiatives are expected to result in changes in certain accounting rules, including legislative and other proposals to account for employee stock options as a compensation expense. These and other potential changes could materially increase the expenses we report under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and adversely affect our operating results. OUR PRODUCTS MAY BE SUBJECT TO RECALL OR PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS. Our Hemopurifier(R) products may be used in connection with medical procedures in which it is important that those products function with precision and accuracy. If our products do not function as designed, or are designed improperly, we may be forced by regulatory agencies to withdraw such products from the market. In addition, if medical personnel or their patients suffer injury as a result of any failure of our products to function as designed, or our products are designed inappropriately, we may be subject to lawsuits seeking significant compensatory and punitive damages. The risk of product liability claims, product recalls and associated adverse publicity is inherent in the 10 testing, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products. We do not have general clinical trial liability insurance coverage. There can be no assurance that future insurance coverage will to be adequate or available. We may not be able to secure product liability insurance coverage on acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed. Any product recall or lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages may have a material affect on our business and financial condition. Any liability for mandatory damages could exceed the amount of our coverage. Moreover, a product recall could generate substantial negative publicity about our products and business and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future product candidates. POLITICAL OR SOCIAL FACTORS MAY DELAY OR IMPAIR OUR ABILITY TO MARKET OUR PRODUCTS. Products developed to treat diseases caused by or to combat the threat of bioterrorism will be subject to changing political and social environments. The political and social responses to bioterrorism have been highly charged and unpredictable. Political or social pressures may delay or cause resistance to bringing our products to market or limit pricing of our products, which would harm our business. Bioterrorism has become the focus of political debates both in terms of how to approach bioterrorism and the amount of funding the government should provide for any programs involving homeland protection. Government funding for products on bioterrorism could be reduced which would hinder our ability to obtain governmental grants. RISKS RELATING TO AN INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES TO DATE, WE HAVE NOT PAID ANY CASH DIVIDENDS AND NO CASH DIVIDENDS WILL BE PAID IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future, and we cannot assure an investor that funds will be legally available to pay dividends, or that even if the funds are legally available, that the dividends will be paid. THE APPLICATION OF THE "PENNY STOCK" RULES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON SHARES AND INCREASE YOUR TRANSACTION COSTS TO SELL THOSE SHARES. As long as the trading price of our common shares is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common shares will be subject to the "penny stock" rules. The "penny stock" rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction before the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the broker-dealer must deliver, before the transaction, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. These additional burdens imposed on broker-dealers may restrict the ability or decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common shares, and may result in decreased liquidity for our common shares and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common shares as compared to other securities. THE SALE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO FUSION CAPITAL MAY CAUSE DILUTION AND THE SALE OF THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ACQUIRED BY FUSION CAPITAL COULD CAUSE THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE. In connection with entering into the common stock purchase agreement, we authorized the issuance to Fusion Capital of up to 8,383,333 shares of our common stock, including 2,383,333 shares which have already been issued. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Fusion Capital under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by Fusion Capital under the agreement. The purchase price for the common stock to be sold to Fusion Capital pursuant to the common stock purchase agreement will fluctuate based on the price of our common stock. All 8,383,333 shares registered in this offering are 11 expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to 25 months from the date of this prospectus. Depending upon market liquidity at the time, a sale of shares under this offering at any given time could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline. Fusion Capital may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the remaining 6,000,000 shares of common stock not yet issued but registered in this offering. After it has acquired such shares, it may sell all, some or none of such shares. Therefore, sales to Fusion Capital by us under the agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock under this offering, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Fusion Capital and the agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. OUR COMMON SHARES ARE THINLY TRADED, SO YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL AT OR NEAR ASK PRICES OR AT ALL IF YOU NEED TO SELL YOUR SHARES TO RAISE MONEY OR OTHERWISE DESIRE TO LIQUIDATE YOUR SHARES. Our common shares have historically been sporadically or "thinly-traded" on the OTCBB, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. As of March 30, 2007, our average trading volume per day for the past three months was approximately 211,049 shares a day with a high of 1,006,000 shares traded and a low of 33,200 shares traded. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common shares will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained. THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR COMMON SHARES IS PARTICULARLY VOLATILE GIVEN OUR STATUS AS A RELATIVELY UNKNOWN COMPANY WITH A SMALL AND THINLY-TRADED PUBLIC FLOAT, LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND LACK OF REVENUE WHICH COULD LEAD TO WIDE FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR SHARE PRICE. THE PRICE AT WHICH YOU PURCHASE OUR COMMON SHARES MAY NOT BE INDICATIVE OF THE PRICE THAT WILL PREVAIL IN THE TRADING MARKET. YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL YOUR COMMON SHARES AT OR ABOVE YOUR PURCHASE PRICE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES TO YOU. The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In fact, during the 52-week period ended March 27, 2007, the high and low sale prices of a share of our common stock were $0.90 and $0.19, respectively. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common shares are sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or "risky" investment due to our limited operating history and lack of revenue or profit to date, and the uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our common shares: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; acceptance of our proprietary technology as a viable method of augmenting the immune response of clearing viruses and toxins from human blood; government regulations, announcements of significant acquisitions, 12 strategic partnerships or joint ventures; our capital commitments and additions or departures of our key personnel. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price. Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price. VOLATILITY IN OUR COMMON SHARE PRICE MAY SUBJECT US TO SECURITIES LITIGATION. The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management's attention and resources. OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS BENEFICIALLY OWN OR CONTROL APPROXIMATELY 23.59% OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON SHARES AS OF March 27, 2007, WHICH MAY LIMIT THE ABILITY OF YOURSELF OR OTHER SHAREHOLDERS, WHETHER ACTING INDIVIDUALLY OR TOGETHER, TO PROPOSE OR DIRECT THE MANAGEMENT OR OVERALL DIRECTION OF OUR COMPANY. ADDITIONALLY, THIS CONCENTRATION OF OWNERSHIP COULD DISCOURAGE OR PREVENT A POTENTIAL TAKEOVER OF OUR COMPANY THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE RESULT IN YOU RECEIVING A PREMIUM OVER THE MARKET PRICE FOR YOUR COMMON SHARES. As of March 27, 2007, our officers and directors beneficially own or control approximately 23.59% of our outstanding common shares (assuming the exercise of all outstanding options and warrants held by our officers and directors). These persons will have the ability to substantially influence all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval and to control our management and affairs, including extraordinary transactions such as mergers and other changes of corporate control, and going private transactions. A LARGE NUMBER OF COMMON SHARES ARE ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF OUTSTANDING COMMON SHARE PURCHASE OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES. THE EXERCISE OR CONVERSION OF THESE SECURITIES COULD RESULT IN THE SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION OF YOUR INVESTMENT IN TERMS OF YOUR PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP IN THE COMPANY AS WELL AS THE BOOK VALUE OF YOUR COMMON SHARES. THE SALE OF A LARGE AMOUNT OF COMMON SHARES RECEIVED UPON EXERCISE OF THESE OPTIONS OR WARRANTS ON THE PUBLIC MARKET TO FINANCE THE EXERCISE PRICE OR TO PAY ASSOCIATED INCOME TAXES, OR THE PERCEPTION THAT SUCH SALES COULD OCCUR, COULD SUBSTANTIALLY DEPRESS THE PREVAILING MARKET PRICES FOR OUR SHARES. As of March 17, 2007, there are outstanding non-variable priced purchase options and warrants entitling the holders to purchase 20,054,309 common shares at a weighted average exercise price of $0.35 per share. There are 5,444,118 shares underlying promissory notes convertible into common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.20. The exercise price for all of the aforesaid warrants, may be less than your cost to acquire our common shares. In the event of the exercise of these securities, you could suffer substantial dilution of your investment in terms of your percentage ownership in the company as well as the book value of your common shares. In addition, the holders of the common share purchase options or warrants may sell common shares in tandem with their exercise of those options or warrants to finance that exercise, or may resell the shares purchased in order to cover any income tax liabilities that may arise from their exercise of the options or warrants. 13 OUR ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL COMMON SHARES, OR OPTIONS OR WARRANTS TO PURCHASE THOSE SHARES, WOULD DILUTE YOUR PROPORTIONATE OWNERSHIP AND VOTING RIGHTS. We are entitled under our certificate of incorporation to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock. After taking into consideration our outstanding common stock at March 17, 2007, our convertible notes, outstanding options and outstanding warrants we will be entitled to issue up to 41,983,025 additional common shares. Our board may generally issue shares of common stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, without further approval by our shareholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is likely that we will be required to issue a large amount of additional securities to raise capital to further our development. It is also likely that we will be required to issue a large amount of additional securities to directors, officers, employees and consultants as compensatory grants in connection with their services, both in the form of stand-alone grants or under our stock plans. We cannot give you any assurance that we will not issue additional shares of common stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time. OUR ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL COMMON SHARES IN EXCHANGE FOR SERVICES OR TO REPAY DEBT, WOULD DILUTE YOUR PROPORTIONATE OWNERSHIP AND VOTING RIGHTS AND COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK. Our board may generally issue shares of common stock to pay for debt or services, without further approval by our shareholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. For the past three years and for the nine months ended December 31, 2006, we issued a total of 2,728,578 shares for debt to reduce our obligations. The average price discount of common stock issued for debt in this period, weighted by the number of shares issued for debt in such period was 47.4%, 53.4% and 69.41% for the years ended 2004, 2005 and 2006. We issued 107,759 shares, at an average discount of 31.67% to market, for debt reduction for the nine months ended December 31, 2006. For the past three fiscal years we issued a total of 5,322,657 shares in payment for services. The average price discount of common stock issued for services during this period, weighted by the number of shares issued was 46.3%, 36.0% and 14.86% for the years ended 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, we issued 561,566 shares for services valued at a premium to market of 4.85%. It is likely that we will issue additional securities to pay for services and reduce debt in the future. We cannot give you any assurance that we will not issue additional shares of common stock under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time. THE ELIMINATION OF MONETARY LIABILITY AGAINST OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES UNDER OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND THE EXISTENCE OF INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS TO OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES MAY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL EXPENDITURES BY OUR COMPANY AND MAY DISCOURAGE LAWSUITS AGAINST OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES. Our certificate of incorporation contains provisions which eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and shareholders. Our bylaws also require us to indemnify our officers and directors. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our agreements with our directors, officers and employees. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors, officers and employees, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors, officers and employees for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors, officers and employees even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders. ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS MAY IMPEDE THE ACQUISITION OF OUR COMPANY. Certain provisions of the Nevada General Corporation Law have anti-takeover effects and may inhibit a non-negotiated merger or other business combination. These provisions are intended to encourage any person interested in acquiring us to negotiate with, and to obtain the approval of, our Board of Directors in connection with such a transaction. However, certain of these provisions may discourage a future acquisition of us, including an acquisition in which the shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. As a result, shareholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have the opportunity to do so. 14 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This prospectus, including the sections titled "Prospectus Summary" and "Risk Factors" and other sections, contains certain statements that constitute "forward-looking statements". These forward-looking statements are derived, in part, from various assumptions and analyses we have made in the context of our current business plan and information currently available to us and in light of our experience and perceptions of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments and other factors we believe to be appropriate in the circumstances. You can generally identify forward-looking statements through words and phrases such as "SEEK", "ANTICIPATE", "BELIEVE", "ESTIMATE", "EXPECT", "INTEND", "PLAN", "BUDGET", "PROJECT", "MAY BE", "MAY CONTINUE", "MAY LIKELY RESULT", and similar expressions. When reading any forward looking statement you should remain mindful that all forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain as they are based on current expectations and assumptions concerning future events or future performance of our company, and that actual results or developments may vary substantially from those expected as expressed in or implied by that statement for a number of reasons or factors, including those relating to: o whether or not markets for our products develop and, if they do develop, the pace at which they develop; o our ability to attract and retain the qualified personnel to implement our growth strategies, o our ability to obtain approval from the Food and Drug Administration for our products; o our ability to protect the patents on our proprietary technology; o our ability to fund our short-term and long-term financing needs; o changes in our business plan and corporate strategies; and o other risks and uncertainties discussed in greater detail in the sections of this prospectus, including those captioned "RISK FACTORS" and "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS". Each forward-looking statement should be read in context with, and with an understanding of, the various other disclosures concerning our company and our business made elsewhere in this prospectus as well as other pubic reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement as a prediction of actual results or developments. We are not obligated to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus to reflect new events or circumstances unless and to the extent required by applicable law. USE OF PROCEEDS This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the selling shareholder. We will receive no proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock in this offering. However, we may receive up to $8.4 Million in proceeds from the sale of our common stock to Fusion Capital under the common stock purchase agreement. Any proceeds from Fusion Capital we receive under the common stock purchase agreement will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. 15 THE FUSION TRANSACTION General On March 21, 2007, we entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company. Under the agreement, Fusion Capital is obligated, under certain conditions, to purchase shares from us in an aggregate amount of $8.4 million from time to time over a 25 month period. Under the agreement, we have sold to Fusion Capital 1,333,333 shares of our common stock for total proceeds to us of $400,000. Fusion Capital has received a commitment fee consisting of 1,050,000 shares of our common stock. We have reserved up to an additional 6,000,000 shares of our common stock for sale to Fusion Capital under the agreement. As of March 27, 2007, there were 32,518,548 shares outstanding (27,587,195 shares held by non-affiliates) excluding the 6,000,000 shares offered by Fusion Capital pursuant to this prospectus which it has not yet purchased from us. If all of such 8,383,333 shares offered hereby were issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, the 8,383,333 shares would represent approximately 21.8% of the total common stock outstanding or approximately 24.96% of the non-affiliate shares outstanding as of March 27, 2007. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Fusion Capital is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by Fusion Capital under the agreement. We do not have the right to commence any additional sales of our shares to Fusion Capital under the agreement until the Securities & Exchange Commission has declared effective the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of. After the Securities & Exchange Commission has declared effective such registration statement, generally we have the right but not the obligation from time to time to sell our shares to Fusion Capital in amounts between $32,000 and $1.0 million depending on certain conditions. We have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Fusion Capital. The purchase price of the shares will be determined based upon the market price of our shares without any fixed discount at the time of each sale. Fusion Capital shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the price of our common stock is below $0.25. The agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. Purchase Of Shares Under The Common Stock Purchase Agreement Under the common stock purchase agreement, on any business day selected by us, we may direct Fusion Capital to purchase up to $32,000 of our common stock. The purchase price per share is equal to the lesser of: o the lowest sale price of our common stock on the purchase date; or o the average of the three (3) lowest closing sale prices of our common stock during the twelve (12) consecutive business days prior to the date of a purchase by Fusion Capital. The purchase price will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute the purchase price. We may direct Fusion Capital to make multiple purchases from time to time in our sole discretion; no sooner then every two (2) business days. Our Right To Increase the Amount to be Purchased In addition to purchases of up to $32,000 from time to time, we may also from time to time elect on any single business day selected by us to require Fusion Capital to purchase our shares in an amount up to $50,000 provided that our share price is not below $0.30 during the three (3) business days prior to and on the purchase date. We may increase this amount to up to $100,000 if our share price is not below $0.40 during the three (3) business days prior to and on the purchase date. This amount may also be increased to up to $200,000 if our share price is not below $0.55 during the three (3) business days prior to and on the purchase date. This amount may also be increased to up 16 to $400,000 if our share price is not below $0.70 during the three (3) business days prior to and on the purchase date. This amount may also be increased to up to $1.0 million if our share price is not below $1.50 during the three (3) business days prior to and on the purchase date. We may direct Fusion Capital to make multiple large purchases from time to time in our sole discretion; however, at least two (2) business days must have passed since the most recent large purchase was completed. The price at which our common stock would be purchased in this type of larger purchase will be the lesser of (i) the lowest sale price of our common stock on the purchase date and (ii) the lowest purchase price (as described above) during the previous seven (7) business days prior to the purchase date. Minimum Purchase Price Under the common stock purchase agreement, we have set a minimum purchase price ("floor price") of $0.25. However, Fusion Capital shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock in the event that the purchase price would be less than the floor price. Specifically, Fusion Capital shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase shares of our common stock on any business day that the market price of our common stock is below $0.25. Events of Default Generally, Fusion Capital may terminate the common stock purchase agreement without any liability or payment to the Company upon the occurrence of any of the following events of default: o the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) or is unavailable to Fusion Capital for sale of our common stock offered hereby and such lapse or unavailability continues for a period of ten (10) consecutive business days or for more than an aggregate of thirty (30) business days in any 365-day period; o suspension by our principal market of our common stock from trading for a period of three (3) consecutive business days; o the de-listing of our common stock from our principal market provided our common stock is not immediately thereafter trading on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange; o the transfer agent`s failure for five (5) business days to issue to Fusion Capital shares of our common stock which Fusion Capital has purchased under the common stock purchase agreement; o any material breach of the representations or warranties or covenants contained in the common stock purchase agreement or any related agreements which has or which could have a material adverse effect on us subject to a cure period of five (5) business days; or o any participation or threatened participation in insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings by or against us. Our Termination Rights We have the unconditional right at any time for any reason to give notice to Fusion Capital terminating the common stock purchase agreement without any cost to us. No Short-Selling or Hedging by Fusion Capital Fusion Capital has agreed that neither it nor any of its affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of our common stock during any time prior to the termination of the common stock purchase agreement. 17 Commitment Shares Issued to Fusion Capital Under the terms of the common stock purchase agreement, Fusion Capital has received a commitment fee consisting of 1,050,000 shares of our common stock. Generally, unless an event of default occurs, Fusion Capital must own at least 1,050,000 shares of our common stock until 25 months from the date of the agreement or until the agreement is terminated. Effect of Performance of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement on Our Stockholders All 8,383,333 shares registered in this offering are expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to 25 months from the date of this prospectus. The sale by Fusion Capital of a significant amount of shares registered in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile. Fusion Capital may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the 6,000,000 shares of common stock not yet issued but registered in this offering. After it has acquired such shares, it may sell all, some or none of such shares. Therefore, sales to Fusion Capital by us under the agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Fusion Capital and the agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. In connection with entering into the agreement, we authorized the sale to Fusion Capital of up to 6,000,000 shares of our common stock. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Fusion Capital under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by Fusion Capital under the agreement. The following table sets forth the amount of proceeds we would receive from Fusion Capital from the sale of shares at varying purchase prices in addition to the $400,000 we have already received: Percentage of Outstanding Proceeds from the Sale of Shares After Giving Effect Shares to Fusion Capital Assumed Average Number of Shares to be to the Issuance to Fusion Under the Common Stock Purchase Price Issued if Full Purchase Capital(1) Purchase Agreement ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $0.25 6,000,000 15.58% $ 1,500,000 $0.35 6,000,000 15.58% $ 2,100,000 $0.50 6,000,000 15.58% $ 3,000,000 $0.75(2) 6,000,000 15.58% $ 4,500,000 $1.00 6,000,000 15.58% $ 6,000,000 $1.33 6,000,000 15.58% $ 7,980,000

("Bishop"), was incorporated in Nevada in April 1991 to provide a public vehicle for participation in a business transaction through a merger with or acquisition of a private company. In March 1993, we successfully offered our common stock at $6.00 per share through an initial public offering. In March 1999, Bishop began doing business as "Aethlon Medical, Inc." In March 2000, the Company's Articles of Incorporation were amended to formally change the name of the Company from "Bishop Equities, Inc." to "Aethlon Medical, Inc." 18 BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT/ACQUISITIONS On March 10, 1999, (1) Aethlon, Inc., a California corporation ("Aethlon"), (2) Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hemex"), the accounting predecessor to the Company, and (3) Bishop, a publicly traded "shell" company, completed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan") structured to result in Bishop's acquisition of all of the outstanding common shares of Aethlon and Hemex (the "Reorganization"). The Reorganization was intended to qualify as a tax-free transaction under Section 368 (a)(1)(B) of the 1986 Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Under the Plan's terms, Bishop issued 733,500 and 1,350,000 shares of its common stock to the common stock shareholders of Aethlon and Hemex, respectively, such that Bishop then owned 100% of each company. On January 10, 2000, we acquired all the outstanding common stock of Syngen Research, Inc. ("Syngen") in exchange for 65,000 shares of our restricted common stock in order to establish research facilities in San Diego, California, as well as employ Dr. Richard Tullis, the founder of Syngen. Dr. Tullis is a recognized research scientist in the area of DNA synthesis and antisense. Syngen had no significant assets, liabilities, or operations, and primarily served as the entity through which Dr. Tullis performed research consulting services. As such, the acquisition has been accounted for as an acquisition of assets in the form of an employment contract with Dr. Tullis and not as a business combination. Dr. Tullis was appointed to the Board of Directors of Aethlon Medical and was elected its Vice President for Business Development. Effective June 1, 2001, Dr. Tullis was appointed Chief Science Officer of Aethlon Medical, replacing Dr. Clara Ambrus, who retired from the Company. On April 6, 2000, we completed the acquisition of Cell Activation, Inc. ("Cell"). In accordance with the purchase agreement, we issued 99,152 shares of restricted common stock and issued 50,148 options to purchase common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding common shares and options to purchase common stock of Cell. After the transaction, Cell became our wholly-owned subsidiary. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. At March 31, 2001, management determined that goodwill recognized in the purchase of Cell was impaired due to the permanent suspension of operations by Cell, and, accordingly, treated the related goodwill as fully impaired. BUSINESS OF ISSUER We are a developmental stage medical device company focused on expanding the applications of our Hemopurifier (R) platform technology which is designed to rapidly reduce the presence of infectious viruses and other toxins from human blood. As such, we focus on developing therapeutic devices to treat acute viral conditions brought on by pathogens targeted as potential biological warfare agents and chronic viral conditions including HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis-C. The Hemopurifier (R) combines the established scientific technologies of hemodialysis and affinity chromatography as a means to mimic the immune system's response of clearing viruses and toxins from the blood before cell and organ infection can occur. The Hemopurifier (R) cannot cure these afflictions but can lower viral loads and allow compromised immune systems to overcome otherwise serious or fatal medical conditions. The Hemopurifier(R) The Hemopurifier(R) is an broad spectrum platform technology that combines the established scientific methods of hemodialysis (artificial kidneys) and affinity chromatography (a method that allows the selective capture of viruses and related toxins) as a means to augment the natural immune response of clearing infectious virus and toxins from the blood. The therapeutic goal of each Hemopurifier (R) application is to improve patient survival rates by reducing viral load and preserving the immune function. We believe that the Hemopurifier (R) will enhance and prolong the benefit of current infectious disease drug therapies and fill the void for patients who inevitably become resistant to such therapies. The Hemopurifier (R) is also positioned to treat those infected by biological agents for which there are no effective drug or vaccine treatments. The Hemopurifier (R) is not a substitute for antiviral drug or vaccine therapies, as it is solely positioned to treat drug and vaccine resistant pathogens. 19 Traditionally, hemodialysis (kidney dialysis) has been used to remove urea and other small metabolic toxins that accumulate in the blood of people with acute or chronic kidney failure (also called renal failure). Acute renal failure is generally treated in hospital intensive care units using a continuous filtration therapy. Chronic renal failure is treated through intermittent, thrice-weekly kidney dialysis in a specialized clinic setting. A catheter is most often the method used to gain access to the blood which is then pumped through thousands of hollow micro-fibers running the length of the kidney dialysis cartridge. Within the cartridge, toxins, urea and excess water pass through small pores in the walls of the micro-fibers and are removed by a separately circulating dialysis fluid outside of the fibers. Blood cells and molecules that are too large to pass through the pores are retained and the cleansed blood is returned back to circulation. The Hemopurifier (R) modifies this process in several ways to provide an efficient method to selectively remove targeted viruses and toxins. First, the pores of the micro-fibers within the Hemopurifier (R) are large enough to allow circulating infectious viruses and toxins to separate from the blood and diffuse through the walls of the fibers. Second, within the cartridge but outside of the fibers the Hemopurifier (R) contains a unique material (the "affinity agent") which selectively binds to the viruses or toxins. Because of the affinity agent's ability to bind to viruses and toxins, there is no need for a separate circulation of a dialysis solution within the Hemopurifier (R). This provides the flexibility to use the Hemopurifier (R) either on kidney dialysis machines (global infrastructure), by employing a simple pump mechanism or by using a patient's own blood pressure (in field or military applications)to drive circulation. Infectious Disease The current treatment for viral illnesses include vaccines and antiviral drugs. Vaccines have been the most successful in curing viral diseases (e.g. polio and smallpox). Unfortunately, newly emerging pathogens (e.g. SARS), highly mutable RNA viruses (e.g., HIV and Hepatitis C) and exotic viruses that might be used in terrorist attacks often do not have vaccine treatments. Similarly, antiviral drugs are often useful in controlling viral infections. However, there do not seem to be any general, broad-spectrum antiviral agents similar to penicillin for bacteria and viruses capable of rapidly developing drug resistant mutations. In addition, it generally takes years and millions of dollars to develop vaccine and drug candidates that may or may not be approved by the FDA. Our Hemopurifier(R) technology represents a new approach to treating viral diseases. The application is designed to work with current treatments to remove infectious virus, toxic viral proteins and injurious immunological mediators directly from the blood of the patient. By removing circulating virus and toxins the Hemopurifier(R) cartridge prevents virus and toxins from infecting tissues and cells. The device cannot cure HIV and Hepatitis-C but appears to augment the immune response of clearing viruses and toxins from the blood before infection can occur. Scientifically, this action is known as "Fusion Inhibition" since the ability of the virus to enter or fuse with host cells or organs is inhibited. The Hemopurifier(R) is positioned as a therapeutic medical device that can be quickly deployed to treat genetically engineered and drug and vaccine resistant biowarfare agents. For example, we demonstrated the ability to rapidly build and test new antibody cartridges upon receipt of an antibody against HIV which was previously untested for its utility as an agent to be immobilized within the Hemopurifier(R) treatment cartridge. The process included the attachment of the antibody to agarose beads to create an affinity or binding solution that was immobilized within the hollow-fiber treatment cartridge as means to capture HIV as it diffused through the fibers. Human blood infected with HIV was then circulated through the cartridge to measure the ability of the Hemopurifier(R) to capture HIV over a range of time periods. Human blood infected with HIV was also circulated through a control cartridge without immobilized antibodies as a means to document an improved ability to capture infectious virus when the immobilized antibody was utilized in the treatment cartridge. Upon completion of the circulation of infected blood, diagnostic studies were conducted to verify the viral capture rate of the Hemopurifier(R) with and without the immobilized antibody. The data was then provided in a confidential report to the antibody manufacturer within ten days of the original receipt of the antibody in our labs. 20 Biological Weapons We are developing treatments to combat infectious agents that may be used in biological warfare and terrorism. We are working to design Hemopurifiers(R) that can be rapidly deployed by armed forces as wearable post-exposure treatments on the battlefield, as well as dialysis-based treatments for civilian populations. We are focusing our bio-defense strategy on treating "Category A" agents, which are considered by the Centers for Disease Control ("CDC") to be the worst bioterrorism threats. These agents include the viruses that cause Smallpox, hemorrhagic fevers such as Ebola and Marburg, the Anthrax toxin, and Botulinum toxin. We have not yet published any data related to the treatment of any "Category A" agent. In March 2007, we submitted an Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") with the FDA the goal of which is to obtain approval to conduct human safety and, if applicable, animal efficacy trials targeted to a specific bioterror viral agent. We are presently in the process of conducting in-vitro trials to determine the most appropriate "Category A" application. Manufacturing We plan to manufacture a small number of cartridges sufficient to complete clinical trials in our current facilities. Ultimately, we will outsource cartridge manufacturing to a GMP/ISO9001 compliant contract manufacturer. Hemopurifiers(R) to treat pathogens that are bioweapons candidates will be sold directly to the U.S. military and the federal government. Sale of Hemopurifiers(R) to treat chronic viral conditions will be directed through organizations with established distribution channels. Research and Development In fiscal year 2001, we realigned our research and development activities from developing Hemopurifiers(R) to treat harmful metals to developing Hemopurifiers(R) for the treatment of chronic viral conditions. As a result of this strategic realignment, we initiated the consolidation of all scientific and administrative functions into our San Diego facilities during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2001. This consolidation was completed during the first quarter of fiscal year 2002 and our facilities in Buffalo, N.Y. were closed. In 2004, we expanded our research effort to include the development of Hemopurifiers(R) to treat acute viral diseases as well as countermeasures against biological weapons. The cost of research and development, all of which has been charged to operations, amounted to approximately $1,251,000 over the last two fiscal years. Patents We currently own or have license rights to a number of U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications and endeavor to continually improve our intellectual property position. We consider the protection of our technology, whether owned or licensed, to the exclusion of use by others, to be vital to our business. While we intend to focus primarily on patented or patentable technology, we may also rely on trade secrets, unpatented property, know-how, regulatory exclusivity, patent extensions and continuing technological innovation to develop our competitive position. In certain countries, medical devices are not patentable or only recently have become patentable, and enforcement of intellectual property rights in some countries has been limited or non-existent. Future enforcement of patents and proprietary rights in many countries can be expected to be problematic or unpredictable. We cannot guarantee that any patents issued or licensed to us will provide us with competitive advantages or will not be challenged by others. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that others will not independently develop similar products or will not design around patents issued or licensed to us. We cannot guarantee that patents that are issued will not be challenged, invalidated or infringed upon or designed around by others, or that the claims contained in such patents will not infringe the patent claims of others, or provide us with significant protection against competitive products, or otherwise be commercially valuable. We may need to acquire licenses under patents belonging to others for technology potentially useful or necessary to us. If any such licenses are required, we cannot be certain that they will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. To the extent that we are unable to obtain patent protection for our products or technology, our business may be materially adversely affected by competitors who develop substantially equivalent technology. 21 INDUSTRY The industry for treating infectious disease is extremely competitive, and companies developing new treatment procedures are faced with severe regulatory challenges. In this regard, only a very small percentage of companies that are developing new treatments will actually obtain approval from the FDA to market their treatments in the United States. Currently, the market for treating chronic and acute viral diseases is comprised of drugs designed to reduce viral load by inhibiting viral replication or by inhibiting viruses from infecting healthy cells. Unfortunately, these drugs are generally toxic, are expensive to develop, and inevitably infected patients will develop viral strains that become resistant to drug treatment. As a result, patients are ultimately left without treatment options. COMPETITION We are advancing our Hemopurifier(R) technology as a treatment to enhance and prolong current drug therapies by removing the viral strains that cause drug resistance. The Hemopurifier(R) is also designed to prolong life for infected patients who have become drug resistant and have no other treatment options. Therefore, we do not believe that the Hemopurifier(R) competes with the current drug therapy treatment standard. However, if the industry considered the Hemopurifier(R) to be a potential replacement for drug therapy, then the marketplace for the Hemopurifier(R) would be extremely competitive. We are also pursuing the development of Hemopurifiers(R) to be utilized as treatment countermeasures against biological weapons. In this regard, we are targeting the treatment of pathogens, which are microbial organisms that cause disease, in which current treatments are either limited or do not exist. We believe that we are the sole developer of viral filtration systems (Hemopurifiers(R)) to treat chronic viral conditions, acute viral conditions and biological weapons. However, we face competition from the producers of the following alternative treatment options for all market applications. Antiviral Drugs For viral infections, specific antiviral drugs can be effective, but there are none that are effective against a broad-spectrum of infectious virus. At present, only a few antiviral drugs are available to treat the multitude of viruses that could be used as biological weapons. For example, Ribavirin is the treatment of choice for certain viral hemorrhagic fever infections, but has no current application to Ebola and Marburg infections. Newer antiviral drugs have shown some promise in animal models, and limited case reports in humans are encouraging. The lack of broad-spectrum antivirals takes on added significance in light of the ability of many viruses to rapidly develop resistance. Current efforts to define the genetic details of normal and pathogenic agents on a molecular level promise the hope of new points of attack. Genomic analysis of viral pathogens and animal models of responses to infection provide valuable information enabling the potential development of novel treatment and prevention strategies. However, even the rapid elucidation of the genetic structure of a specific pathogen does not provide sufficient information to quickly design an effective cure. Another approach in drug development is combinatorial chemistry, which provides the ability to rapidly synthesize large libraries of related compounds, many of which are completely new. However, there is still a need to laboriously screen each new compound for efficacy in fighting a particular disease. In that sense, combinatorial drugs confront the same problem as the traditional method of screening of plant and animal extracts for active compounds that block viral or bacterial replication. Vaccines Historically, the most effective tools in controlling infections have been vaccines. Polio, measles, mumps and many other viral illnesses are now controllable and smallpox has been eradicated from nature. Licensed vaccines for hemorrhagic fever viruses are limited to yellow fever (though others are in the trial phase of approval). Promising vaccines are being tested for some of the other diseases, but research is hampered by the need to conduct the studies in secure laboratories. There are other problems with relying on vaccines as our primary protection against a biological weapons attack. While vaccination may be an effective treatment in a military setting, it would be problematic for civilian populations for several reasons: 22 o The infectious virus would have to be known prior to vaccine deployment. With the exception of smallpox, post-exposure vaccination is ineffective. o If everyone in the United States could be vaccinated, it would be impossible to vaccinate people against every viral threat. o Vaccines are only useful if the viral target has not mutated o or been genetically altered. Vaccines that are effective and safe are difficult to develop. History has shown that such development can be a slow process and may not even be possible for highly mutable pathogens like HIV and Hepatitis C. Moreover, current vaccine strategies often carry significant risk for complications. For example, the smallpox vaccine, which uses attenuated strains of a live virus, can occasionally cause illness or death by infection from the very organism that usually provides protection. GOVERNMENT REGULATION The Hemopurifier(R) is a medical device subject to extensive and rigorous regulation by FDA, as well as other federal and state regulatory bodies in the United States and comparable authorities in other countries. Therefore, we cannot assure that our technology will successfully complete any regulatory clinical trial for any of our proposed applications. One of the problems facing the FDA is the need to ensure public safety while at the same time preventing unsafe treatments from reaching the public. The balance between these competing pressures has resulted in a long and deliberate process for approving new treatments, which is not responsive to the urgent need for new treatments presented in the era of bioterrorism. For most drugs, the principal research and development phases take several years prior to a drug being submitted to the FDA for testing. A clinical research program takes two to ten years, depending on the agent and clinical indication, after which the marketing application review period requires an average of one year. Once a product is approved for market, long-term post-marketing surveillance, inspections, and product testing must be performed to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of the product, as well as appropriate product labeling. FDA'S PREMARKET CLEARANCE AND APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS. Each medical device we wish to commercialize in the United States will require the filing of a Premarket Approval ("PMA") from FDA. Medical devices are classified into one of three classes--Class I, Class II, or Class III--depending on the degree or risk associated with each medical device and the extent of control needed to ensure safety and effectiveness. Devices deemed to pose lower risks are placed in either Class I or II, which requires the manufacturer to submit to FDA a premarket notification requesting permission to commercially distribute the device. Our Hemopurifier(R) has been categorized as a Class III device, requiring premarket approval. CLINICAL TRIALS. Clinical trials are almost always required to support an FDA premarket application. In the United States, these trials generally require submission of an application for an Investigational Device Exemption, or IDE, to FDA. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results, showing that it is safe to test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. The IDE must be approved in advance by FDA for a specific number of patients unless the product is deemed a non-significant risk device eligible for more abbreviated IDE requirements. Clinical trials for significant risk devices may not begin until the IDE application is approved by FDA and the appropriate institutional review boards, or IRBs, at the clinical trial sites. Our clinical trials must be conducted under the oversight of an IRB at the relevant clinical trial sites and in accordance with FDA regulations, including but not limited to those relating to good clinical practices. We are also required to obtain patients' informed consent that complies with both FDA requirements and state and federal privacy regulations. We, FDA or the IRB at each site at which a clinical trial is being performed may suspend a clinical trial at any time for various reasons, including a belief that the risks to study subjects outweigh the benefits. Even if a trial is completed, the results of clinical testing may not demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the device, may not be equivocal or may otherwise not be sufficient to obtain approval of the product. Similarly, in Europe the clinical study must be approved by the local ethics committee and in some cases, including studies with high-risk devices, by the Ministry of Health in the applicable country. 23 In March 2007 we submitted an Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") with the FDA the goal of which is to obtain approval to conduct human safety and, if applicable, animal efficacy trials targeted to a specific bioterror viral agent. We are presently in the process of conducting in-vitro trials to determine the most appropriate "Category A" bioterror application. Upon successful completion of the IDE clinical trials, we would anticipate submitting a PMA (see below). PREMARKET APPROVAL PATHWAY. A PMA application must be supported by extensive data, including but not limited to technical, preclinical, clinical trials, manufacturing and labeling to demonstrate to FDA's satisfaction the safety and effectiveness of the device. After a PMA application is submitted and FDA determines that the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review, FDA will accept the application for review. FDA has 180 days to review an "accepted" PMA application, although the review of an application generally occurs over a significantly longer period of time and can take up to several years. During this review period, FDA may request additional information or clarification of the information already provided. Also, an advisory panel of experts from outside FDA may be convened to review and evaluate the application and provide recommendations to FDA as to the approvability of the device. In addition, FDA will conduct a pre-approval inspection of the manufacturing facility to ensure compliance with quality system regulations. New PMA applications or PMA application supplements are required for significant modification to the manufacturing process, labeling and design of a device that is approved through the premarket approval process. Premarket approval supplements often require submission of the same type of information as a premarket approval application, except that the supplement is limited to information needed to support any changes from the device covered by the original premarket approval application and may not require as extensive clinical data or the convening of an advisory panel. PERVASIVE AND CONTINUING REGULATION. After a device is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements continue to apply. These include: o FDA's Quality System Regulation, or QSR, which requires manufacturers, including third-party manufacturers, to follow stringent design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during all aspects of the manufacturing process; o labeling regulations and FDA prohibitions against the promotion of products for uncleared, unapproved or off-label uses; o clearance or approval of product modifications that could significantly affect safety or efficacy or that would constitute a major change in intended use; o medical device reporting, or MDR, regulations, which require that manufacturers report to FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur; and o post-market surveillance regulations, which apply when necessary to protect the public health or to provide additional safety and effectiveness data for the device. After a device receives a PMA, any modification that could significantly affect its safety or effectiveness, or that would constitute a major change in its intended use, will require a new clearance or approval. FDA requires each manufacturer to make this determination initially, but FDA can review any such decision and can disagree with a manufacturer's determination. The regulations also require that we report to FDA any incident in which our product may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or in which our product malfunctioned and, if the malfunction were to recur, would likely cause or contribute to death or serious injury. 24 FRAUD AND ABUSE. We may also directly or indirectly be subject to various federal and state laws pertaining to healthcare fraud and abuse, including anti-kickback laws. In particular, the federal healthcare program Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an individual, or the furnishing, arranging for or recommending a good or service, for which payment may be made in whole or part under federal healthcare programs, such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Penalties for violations include criminal penalties and civil sanctions such as fines, imprisonment and possible exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs. The Anti-Kickback Statute is broad and prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful in businesses outside of the healthcare industry. In implementing the statute, the Office of Inspector General, or OIG, has issued a series of regulations, known as the "safe harbors." These safe harbors set forth provisions that, if all their applicable requirements are met, will assure healthcare providers and other parties that they will not be prosecuted under the Anti-Kickback Statute. The failure of a transaction or arrangement to fit precisely within one or more safe harbors does not necessarily mean that it is illegal or that prosecution will be pursued. However, conduct and business arrangements that do not fully satisfy each applicable element of a safe harbor may result in increased scrutiny by government enforcement authorities, such as the OIG. INTERNATIONAL. International sales of medical devices are subject to foreign governmental regulations, which vary substantially from country to country. The time required to obtain clearance or approval by a foreign country may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA clearance or approval, and the requirements may be different. The primary regulatory environment in Europe is that of the European Union, which has adopted numerous directives and has promulgated voluntary standards regulating the design, manufacture, clinical trials, labeling and adverse event reporting for medical devices. Devices that comply with the requirements of a relevant directive will be entitled to bear CE conformity marking, indicating that the device conforms with the essential requirements of the applicable directives and, accordingly, can be commercially distributed throughout the member states of the European Union, and other countries that comply with or mirror these directives. The method of assessing conformity varies depending on the type and class of the product, but normally involves a combination of self-assessment by the manufacturer and a third-party assessment by a notified body, an independent and neutral institution appointed by a country to conduct the conformity assessment. This third-party assessment may consist of an audit of the manufacturer's quality system and specific testing of the manufacturer's device. Such an assessment is required in order for a manufacturer to commercially distribute the product throughout these countries. ISO 9001 and ISO 13845 certifications are voluntary harmonized standards. Compliance establishes the presumption of conformity with the essential requirements for a CE Marking. We have completed preclinical studies that demonstrate the removal of HIV and Hepatitis C virus from infected human blood. We have also completed initial animal safety studies, limited human safety studies and are presently engaged in the in-vitro testing and clinical planning required to support our IDE submission as outlined in the "Timelines" table below. The outline and table below describe suggested timelines for the generation and testing of our current targets. The timelines presuppose the development of a working relationship with government or private agencies capable of handling biowarfare agents and refer to calendar year dates. US CLINICAL TRIALS - IDE: o Human safety study site selection - Q1 2007 o IDE filing and FDA review: Q1 - Q2 2007 o In-vitro studies at BSL4 Facility to determine appropriate bioweapon agent target (i.e. Ebola, Marburg, Lassa): Q1 - Q2 2007 o FDA approval of human safety study/protocol - Q2 2007 o Human Safety Study: Q3 2007 through Q1 2008 o PMA - Q2 2008 25 Note that the Hemopurifier(R) technology is applicable to a range of "Class A" Bio-weapons candidates and that the safety studies noted above begin the process of determining those which have the largest market potential or strategic importance. We have estimated the direct costs for performing the proposed submissions and clinical tests on the above timetable will require at least $4.1 million through the end of calendar 2008. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2007 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- US CLINICAL TRIALS - CHRONIC DISEASES Pre-IDE Planning Site Selection IDE Submission IDE FDA IDE Review Review ------ In-Vitro Studies~Bioterror Target Ebola~Marburg~Lassa US Human Safety Study Safety Study -------- Submission of PMA: FDA Review PMA ------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because we may market our products abroad we will be subject to varying foreign regulatory requirements. Although international efforts are being made to harmonize these requirements, applications must currently be made in each individual country. The data necessary and the review time varies significantly from one country to another. Approval by the FDA does not ensure approval by the regulatory bodies of other countries. Any future collaborators will also be subject to all of the above-described regulations in connection with the commercialization of products utilizing our technology. PRODUCT LIABILITY The risk of product liability claims, product recalls and associated adverse publicity is inherent in the testing, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products. We have limited clinical trial liability insurance coverage. There can be no assurance that future insurance coverage will be adequate or available. We may not be able to secure product liability insurance coverage on acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed. Any liability for mandatory damages could exceed the amount of our coverage. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product recall could generate substantial negative publicity about our products and business and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future product candidates. SUBSIDIARIES We have four dormant wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aethlon, Inc., Cell Activation, Inc., Syngen Research, Inc., and Hemex, Inc. EMPLOYEES At March 31, 2007, we had six full-time employees, comprised of our Chief Executive Officer, our President, our Chief Science Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, and two research scientists. We utilize, whenever appropriate, contract and part time professionals in order to conserve cash and resources. We believe our employee relations are good. None of our employees is represented by a collective bargaining unit. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES We currently rent approximately 3,200 square feet of executive office space and laboratory space at 3030 Bunker Hill Street, Suite 4000, San Diego, California 92109 at the rate of $7,744 per month rent, plus approximately $5,000 per month in maintenance and other fees on a lease that expires on July 12, 2007.

Our Board of Directors has the responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and for overseeing our overall performance. Members of the Board are kept informed of our business activities through discussions with the CEO and other officers, by reviewing analyses and reports sent to them, and by participating in Board and committee meetings. Our bylaws provide that each of the directors serves for a term that extends to the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. 28 Upon the recommendation of our Compensation Committee, in February 2005, we adopted our 2005 Directors Compensation Program (the "Directors Compensation Program") which advances our interest by helping us to obtain and retain the services of outside directors services upon whose judgment, initiative, efforts and/or services we are substantially dependent, by offering to or providing those persons with incentives or inducements affording such persons an opportunity to become owners of our capital stock. Under the Directors Compensation Program, a newly elected director will receive a one time grant of a non-qualified stock option of 1.5% of the common stock outstanding at the time of election. The options will vest one-third at the time of election to the board and the remaining two-thirds will vest equally at year end over three years. Additionally, each director will also receive an annual $25,000 non-qualified stock option retainer, $15,000 of which is to be paid at the first of the year to all directors who are on the Board prior to the first meeting of the year and a $10,000 retainer will be paid if a director attends 75% of the meetings either in person, via conference call or other electronic means. The exercise price for the options under the Directors Compensation Program will equal the average closing of the last ten (10) trading days prior to the date earned. MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Board of Directors held four meetings during the 2006 fiscal year. In addition, action was taken by the Board of Directors by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting 5 times.

The Company will forward any such communication to the Board member. If the shareholder would like the communication to be confidential, it should be so marked. ATTENDANCE OF BOARD MEMBERS AT ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING With the exception of Mr. James A. Joyce, who is required to attend our Annual Meeting, we do not currently have a policy with regard to attendance by the remaining members of the Board of Directors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Described below are certain transactions or series of transactions between us and our executive officers, directors and the beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock, on an as converted basis, and certain persons affiliated with or related to these persons, including family members, in which they had or will have a direct or indirect material interest in an amount that exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets as of year-end for the last three completed fiscal years, other than compensation arrangements that are otherwise required to be described under "Executive Compensation." 34 Certain of our officers and other related parties have advanced us funds, agreed to defer compensation or paid expenses on our behalf to cover short-term working capital deficiencies in the aggregate amount of approximately $ 984,530. Of this amount, we owe Mr. Barry a total of approximately $265,800, for deferred salary and consulting fees from pre-merger in 1999 through May 2003 and approximately $15,000 from accrued medical benefits. We owe approximately $ 38,500 to James Joyce and Associates, a company founded by our current Chief Executive Officer, for deferred consulting fees on services provided prior to our merger in 1999. We previously repaid Mr. Barry a total of $ 55,000 in cash. Additionally, we owe John Murray, our former Chief Financial Officer, a total of approximately $25,000 for deferred salary and medical benefits for services rendered from September 2000 through May 2001. We owe Robert S. Stefanovich, a former Chief Financial Officer, a total of approximately $ 60,689 for deferred salary, vacation and medical benefits for services rendered from July 2001 until July 2002. Additionally, we owe Dr. Clara Ambrus, the founder of Hemex, Inc., approximately $190,500 for services rendered from pre-merger in 1999 through March 2002. We owe Edward Broenniman, a board member, and Linda Broenniman, his wife, an aggregate of approximately $ 129,310 for services rendered prior to our merger in 1999 and for unpaid expenses and advances to Hemex, Inc. prior to the merger with Aethlon Media. Mr. Broenniman was repaid a total of $ 45,000 against this debt. On September 9, 2005, as previously disclosed on Form 8-K, we issued a stock option to acquire 2,857,143 stock option to our CEO and Chairman, James A. Joyce, in satisfaction of $300,000 in previously accrued payroll expense. These non interest-bearing liabilities have been included as due to related parties in the accompanying financial statements. We believe that the related party transactions above, due to their related party nature, are not necessarily on terms that would have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The following discussion of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and their explanatory notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Certain statements contained herein that are not related to historical results, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's business strategy and objectives, future financial position, expectations about pending litigation and estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Securities Exchange Act") and involve risks and uncertainties. Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate and actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, regulatory policies, competition from other similar businesses, and market and general economic factors. All forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are qualified in their entirety by this statement. PLAN OF OPERATION The Company's current plan of operation is to fund our anticipated increased research and development activities and operations for the near future through the common stock purchase agreement in place with Fusion Capital, whereby Fusion Capital has committed to buy up to an additional $6,000,000 of our common stock over a 25-month period that will commence initially upon the filing of and, in the future, upon the declared effectiveness of this registration statement. No assurance can be given that we will receive funds under our agreement with Fusion Capital. Based on our projections of additional resources required for operations and to complete research, development and testing associated with our Hemopurifier(R) products, we anticipate that these funds will satisfy our cash requirements, including this anticipated increase in operations, in excess of the next twelve months. However, due to market conditions and to assure availability of funding for operations in the long term, we plan to arrange for additional funding, subject to acceptable terms, during the next twelve months. 35 The Company is a development stage medical device company that has not yet engaged in significant commercial activities. The primary focus of our resources is the advancement of our proprietary Hemopurifier(R) platform treatment technology, which is designed to rapidly reduce the presence of infectious viruses and toxins in human blood. Our focus is to prepare our Hemopurifier(R) to treat chronic viral conditions, acute viral conditions and viral-based bioterror threats in human clinical trials. The Company plans to continue research and development activities related to our Hemopurifier(R) platform technology, with particular emphasis on the advancement of our treatment for "Category A" pathogens as defined by the Federal Government under Project Bioshield and the All Hazards Preparedness Act of 2006. The Company has filed an Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") with the FDA in order to proceed with Human safety studies of the Hemopurifier(R). Such studies, complemented by planned in-vivo and appropriate animal in-vitro studies should allow the Company to proceed to Premarket Approval ("PMA") process. The PMA process is the last major FDA hurdle in determining the safety and effectiveness of Class III medical Devices (of which the Hemopurifier(R) is one). Management anticipates continuing to increase spending on research and development over the next 12 months. Additionally, associated with the Company's anticipated increase in research and development expenditures, we anticipate purchasing additional amounts of equipment during this period to support our laboratory and testing operations. Operations to date have consumed substantial capital without generating revenues, and will continue to require substantial and increasing capital funds to conduct necessary research and development and pre-clinical and clinical testing of our Hemopurifier(R) products, as well as market any of those products that receive regulatory approval. The Company does not expect to generate revenue from operations for the foreseeable future, and our ability to meet our cash obligations as they become due and payable is expected to depend for at least the next several years on our ability to sell securities, borrow funds or a combination thereof. Future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including progress with pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, the number and breadth of our clinical programs, the time and costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims and other proprietary rights, the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals, competing technological and market developments, as well as management's ability to establish collaborative arrangements, effective commercialization, marketing activities and other arrangements. The Company expects to continue to incur increasing negative cash flows and net losses for the foreseeable future. OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We may be involved from time to time in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties or breach of contract actions incidental to the normal course of business operations. We are not aware of any material pending legal proceedings involving our Company. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES GENERAL Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share (these shares are referred to in this prospectus as "Common Shares"). As of March 27, 2007, there were issued and outstanding 32,518,548 common shares. 36 COMMON SHARES Our common shareholders are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by those shareholders. Upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of our Company, our common shareholders will be entitled to share ratably in all of the assets which are legally available for distribution, after payment of all debts and other liabilities. Our common shareholders have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. All of our currently outstanding common shares are, and all of our common shares offered for sale under this prospectus will be, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. OPTIONS AND WARRANTS CONVERTIBLE INTO COMMON SHARES As of March 27, 2007, there were outstanding common share purchase options entitling the holders to purchase 9,204,060 common shares at a weighted average exercise price of $0.39 per share and warrants entitling the holders to purchase up to 10,850,249 common shares at a weighted average exercise price of $0.31 per share. EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS SUMMARY EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN DATA The following table sets forth information compiled on an aggregate basis as of March 15, 2007 with respect to the various equity compensation plans, including stand-alone compensation arrangements, under which we have granted or are authorized to issue equity securities to employees or non-employees in exchange for consideration in the form of goods or services: NUMBER OF NUMBER OF SECURITIES SECURITIES WEIGHTED- REMAINING AVAILABLE FOR TO BE AVERAGE FUTURE ISSUANCE UNDER ISSUED UPON EXERCISE PRICE EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS EXERCISE OF OF OUTSTANDING (EXCLUDING SECURITIES TO OUTSTANDING OPTIONS, BE ISSUED UPON EXERCISE OPTIONS, WARRANTS OF OUTSTANDING OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND RIGHTS WARRANTS AND RIGHTS) (3) PLAN CATEGORY OR RIGHTS(1)(2) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equity compensation plans approved by shareholders: 32,500 $ 2.65 467,500 Equity compensation plans not approved by shareholders(1): 9,171,560 $0.39 N/A ------------------------------------------------------------- Total 9,204,060 $0.39 467,500 -------------------------------------------------------------

(2) Net of equity instruments forfeited, exercised or expired. (3) This column does not include 75,940 shares of common stock that remain to be issued under the 2003 Consultant Stock Plan. DESCRIPTION OF EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS 37 2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN Our 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), adopted by the Company in August 2000, provides for the grant of incentive stock options ("ISOs") to full-time employees (who may also be Directors) and nonstatutory stock options ("NSOs") to non-employee Directors, consultants, customers, vendors or providers of significant services. The exercise price of any ISO may not be less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant or, in the case of an optionee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our outstanding stock, not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The exercise price, in the case of any NSO, must not be less than 75% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The amount reserved under the Plan is 500,000 shares of common stock issuable under options. As of March 21, 2007, there are 32,500 options issued under the Plan. CONSULTANT STOCK PLAN Our 2003 Consultant Stock Plan (the "Stock Plan"), adopted by the Company in August 2003, advances our interests by helping us obtain and retain the services of persons providing consulting services whose judgment, initiative, efforts and/or services we are substantially dependent. Consultants or advisors are eligible to receive grants under the plan program only if they are natural persons providing bona fide consulting services to us, with the exception of any services they may render in connection with the offer and sale of our securities in a capital-raising transaction, or which may directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for our securities. We reserved a total of 1,000,000 common shares for issuance under the Stock Plan in March 2004. In August 2005, we amended our 2003 Consultant Stock Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Stock Plan to 3,000,000 shares of common stock. The Stock Plan provides for the grants of common stock. No awards may be issued after the ten year anniversary of the date we adopted the Stock Plan, the termination date for the plan. On March 29, 2004, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 for the purpose of registering 1,000,000 common shares issuable under the Stock Plan under the Securities Act of 1933. On August 29, 2005 we filed with the SEC an amendment to the registration statement on Form S-8 for the purpose of registering an additional 2,000,000 shares of common stock issuable under the amended Stock Plan. As of March 21, 2007, we have issued 2,924,060 shares under the Stock Plan. STAND-ALONE GRANTS From time to time our board of directors grants common share purchase options or warrants to selected directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors in payment of goods or services provided by such persons on a stand-alone basis outside of any of our formal stock plans. The terms of these grants are individually negotiated. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS DESCRIPTION OF MARKET Our common shares are currently quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol "AEMD."

DIVIDEND POLICY We have never paid any cash dividends on our common shares, and we do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends with respect to those securities in the foreseeable future. Our current business plan is to retain any future earnings to finance the expansion and development of our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors, and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors as our board may deem relevant at that time. THE SELLING SHAREHOLDER The following table presents information regarding the selling shareholder. Neither the selling shareholder nor any of its affiliates has held a position or office, or had any other material relationship, with us. ------------------------- -------------------- --------------------------- --------------- --------------------------- Shares Percentage of Outstanding Shares to be Percentage of Outstanding Beneficially Owned Shares Beneficially Owned Sold in the Shares Beneficially Owned Selling Shareholder Before Offering Before Offering (1) Offering After Offering ------------------------- -------------------- --------------------------- --------------- --------------------------- Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC (1) (2) 2,514,343 7.73% 8,383,333 * ------------------------- -------------------- --------------------------- --------------- ---------------------------

Martin and Joshua B. Scheinfeld, the principals of Fusion Capital, are deemed to be beneficial owners of all of the shares of common stock owned by Fusion Capital. Messrs. Martin and Scheinfeld have shared voting and disposition power over the shares being offered under this prospectus. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION The common stock offered by this prospectus is being offered by Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC, the selling shareholder. The common stock may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling shareholder directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The sale of the common stock offered by this Prospectus may be effected in one or more of the following methods: o ordinary brokers' transactions; o transactions involving cross or block trades; o through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents o "at the market" into an existing market for the common stock; o in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents; o in privately negotiated transactions; or o any combination of the foregoing. In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares may be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with. Brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the selling shareholder and/or purchasers of the common stock for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent. The compensation paid to a particular broker-dealer may be less than or in excess of customary commissions. Fusion Capital is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. Neither we nor Fusion Capital can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive. We know of no existing arrangements between Fusion Capital, any other shareholder , broker, dealer, underwriter, or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares offered by this Prospectus. At the time a particular offer of shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed that will set forth the names of any agents, underwriters, or dealers and any compensation from the selling shareholder, and any other required information. We will pay all of the expenses incident to the registration, offering, and sale of the shares to the public other than commissions or discounts of underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents. We have also agreed to indemnify Fusion Capital and related persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable. Fusion Capital and its affiliates have agreed not to engage in any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of our common stock during the term of the common stock purchase agreement. 40 We have advised Fusion Capital that while it is engaged in a distribution of the shares included in this Prospectus it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling shareholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares offered hereby this Prospectus. This offering will terminate on the date that all shares offered by this Prospectus have been sold by Fusion Capital.

EXPERTS Squar, Milner, Peterson, Miranda & Williamson, LLP, a registered independent public accounting firm, have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and for the period from January 31, 1984 (Inception) to March 31, 2006 to the extent set forth in their report, and are set forth in this prospectus in reliance upon such report given upon their authority as experts in auditing and accounting. DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES Our Articles of Incorporation permit us to limit the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted under Section 78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law. As permitted by Section 78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, our Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation also include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of each of its officers and directors for any obligations arising out of any acts or conduct of such officer or director performed for or on behalf of the Company. To the fullest extent allowed by Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, we will defend, indemnify and hold harmless its directors or officers from and against any and all claims, judgments and liabilities to which each director or officer becomes subject to in connection with the performance of his or her duties and will 41 reimburse each such director or officer for all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such claim of liability. However, we will not indemnify any officer or director against, or reimburse for, any expense incurred in connection with any claim or liability arising out of the officer's or director's own negligence or misconduct in the performance of duty. The provisions of our Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation regarding indemnification are not exclusive of any other right we have to indemnify or reimburse our officers or directors in any proper case, even if not specifically provided for in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. We believe that the indemnity provisions contained in our bylaws and the limitation of liability provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons for these positions. No pending material litigation or proceeding involving our directors, executive officers, employees or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought exists, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened material litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our directors or executive officers. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS We file annual and quarterly reports with the SEC. In addition, we file additional reports for matters such as material developments or changes.

F-44 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements................... F-45 F-1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Stockholders Aethlon Medical, Inc. and Subsidiaries We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company"), a development stage company, as of March 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and for the period from January 31, 1984 (Inception) to March 31, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and its Subsidiaries and as of March 31, 2006 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and for the period from January 31, 1984 (Inception) to March 31, 2006, 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. At March 31, 2006, the Company has negative working capital of approximately $1,921,000 and a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $22,139,000. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, a significant amount of additional capital will be necessary to advance the development of the Company's products to the point at which they may become commercially viable. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /S/ SQUAR, MILNER, PETERSON, MIRANDA & WILLIAMSON, LLP JUNE 23, 2006 NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA F-2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AETHLON MEDICAL, INC.

AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION Aethlon Medical, Inc. ("Aethlon") engages in the research and development of a medical device known as the Hemopurifier(R) that removes harmful substances from the blood. Aethlon is in the development stage on the Hemopurifier(R) and significant research and testing are still needed to reach commercial viability. Any resulting medical device or process will require approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") or the regulatory agency of any foreign country where it intends to sell its device. Aethlon has not yet begun efforts to obtain any FDA approval, which may take several years, but it intends to initiate human trials in India to obtain regulatory approval there. Since many of Aethlon's patents were issued in the 1980's, some have expired and other are scheduled to expire in the near future. Thus, some patents may expire before FDA approval or approval in a foreign country, if any, is obtained. However, the Company believes that certain patent applications and/or other patents issued more recently will help protect the proprietary nature of the Hemopurifier(TM) treatment technology. Aethlon is classified as a development stage enterprise under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and has not generated revenues from its planned principal operations. Aethlon's common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board administered by the National Association of Securities Dealers ("OTCBB") under the symbol "AEMD.OB." PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and its inactive wholly-owned subsidiaries Aethlon, Inc., Hemex, Inc., Syngen Research, Inc. and Cell Activation, Inc.(hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has suffered continuing losses from operations, is in default on certain debt (see Notes 6 and 7), has negative working capital of approximately $1,921,000, recurring losses from operations and a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $22,062,000 at March 31, 2006, which among other matters, raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. A significant amount of additional capital will be necessary to advance the development of the Company's products to the point at which they may become commercially viable. The Company intends to fund operations through debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements (consisting of accounts payable, accrued liabilities, amounts due to related parties and amounts due under various notes payable) for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations. The Company is currently addressing its liquidity issue by continually seeking investment capital through the public markets, specifically, through private placement of common stock and a common stock purchase agreement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC ("Fusion"). As of June 15, 2006, provided certain terms of the agreement remain in force, the Company can sell Fusion up to $4,314,999 of the Company's common stock through June 2007. The Company believes that its cash on hand and the funds available from the common stock purchase agreement with Fusion will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for fiscal 2007. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will receive any funds in addition to the funds it has received to date. F-16 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) GOING CONCERN (continued) Under such agreement and there is no guarantee that these strategies will enable the Company to meet its obligations for the foreseeable future. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that, if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to 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. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition, government regulation and rapid technological change. The Company's operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks associated with a development stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. USE OF ESTIMATES The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, which 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management include, among others, realization of long-lived assets, valuation of derivative liabilities, estimating fair value associated with debt and equity transactions and valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 107, "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amount of the Company's cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable approximates their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments. . Management has concluded that it is not practical to determine the estimated fair value of amounts due to related parties. SFAS No. 107 requires that for instruments for which it is not practicable to estimate their fair value, information pertinent to those instruments be disclosed, such as the carrying amount, interest rate, and maturity, as well as the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value. Information about these related party instruments is included in Note 9. Management believes it is not practical to estimate the fair value of such financial instruments because the transactions cannot be assumed to have been consummated at arm's length, the terms are not deemed to be market terms, there are no quoted values available for these instruments, and an independent valuation would not be practicable due to the lack of data regarding similar instruments, if any, and the associated potential costs. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISKS Cash is maintained at various financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insures accounts at each institution for up to $100,000. At times, cash may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company had no amounts exceeding this limit at March 31, 2006. F-17 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from two to five years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred while improvements are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of property and equipment, the accounts are relieved of the cost and the related accumulated depreciation with any gain or loss included in the statements of operations. INCOME TAXES Under SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax basis. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts reported for income tax purposes, and (b) tax credit carry-forwards. The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when, based on management's best estimate of taxable income in the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred income tax assets may not be realized. LONG-LIVED ASSETS SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of," addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the cost basis of a long-lived asset is greater than the projected future undiscounted net cash flows from such asset, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses are calculated as the difference between the cost basis of an asset and its estimated fair value. SFAS 144 also requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting requirement to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the estimated fair value less costs to sell. The provisions of this pronouncement relating to assets held for disposal generally are required to be applied prospectively after the adoption date to newly initiated commitments to sell or dispose of such assets, (as defined), by management. As a result, management cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS 144 will have on the Company's financial statements with respect to future disposal decisions, if any. Management noted certain impairment indicators requiring review for impairment during the year ended March 31, 2006 and recorded an impairment loss on patents totaling $81,722. EARNINGS PER SHARE Under SFAS 128, "Earnings per Share," basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive (If the Company had net income in each of the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, approximately 6,800,000 and 2,100,000 shares would have been considered additional common stock equivalents, respectively, based on the treasury stock method). As the Company had net losses for the periods presented, basic and diluted loss per share are the same, as any additional common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. F-18 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) SEGMENTS SFAS 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," requires public companies to report selected segment information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders. It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the foreign countries in which it holds significant assets and how the Company reports revenues and its major customers. The Company currently operates in one segment, as disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to employees using the intrinsic value based method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), "Accounting for Stock issued to Employees." Under the intrinsic value based method, compensation expense is the excess, if any, of the estimated fair value of the stock at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense, if any, is recognized over the applicable service period, which is usually the vesting period. SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," changed the method of accounting for employee stock-based compensation plans to the fair value based method. For stock options and warrants, fair value is estimated using an option pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the measurement date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option or warrant, stock volatility and the annual rate of quarterly dividends, if any. The adoption of the accounting methodology of SFAS 123 is optional and the Company has elected to continue account for stock-based compensation issued to employees using APB 25; however, pro forma disclosures, as if the Company had adopted the cost recognition requirement under SFAS 123, are required to be presented (see below). Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation ("FIN") No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB 25" clarifies the application of APB 25 for (a) the definition of employee for purpose of applying APB 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a non compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence for various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. Management believes that the Company accounts for transactions involving stock-based employee compensation in accordance with FIN 44. SFAS 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123," provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. F-19 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION (continued) At March 31, 2006, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan (the "Plan"), which is described more fully in Note 8. The Company accounts for the Plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, and related interpretation. Stock options granted under the Plan had exercise prices equal to or greater than the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock on the dates of grant. In February 2005, the Company granted 5,303,275 stock options to directors and senior executives for past services, all at an exercise price that was $0.08 below the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, the Company recorded approximately $424,000 of compensation expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2005. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per common share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation. YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------------- 2006 2005 ------------ ------------ Net loss available to common stockholders, as reported $ 2,920,183 $ 2,096,951 Add back: Recorded intrinsic value -- (424,262) Pro forma compensation expense 361,111 2,386,474 ------------ ------------ Pro forma net loss available to common stockholders $ 3,281,294 $ 4,059,163 ============ ============ Loss per common share, as reported Basic and diluted $ (0.15) $ (0.15) Loss per common share, pro forma Basic and diluted $ (0.17) $ (0.29)
The Company follows SFAS No. 123 (as intepreted by EITF Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services") to account for transactions involving services provided by third parties where the Company issues equity instruments as part of the total consideration. Pursuant to paragraph 8 of SFAS No. 123, the Company accounts for such transactions using the fair value of the consideration received (i.e. the value of the goods or services) or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company applies EITF Issue No. 96-18, in transactions, when the value of the goods and/or services are not readily determinable and (1) the fair value of the equity instruments is more reliably measurable and (2) the counterparty receives equity instruments in full or partial settlement of the transactions, using the following methodology: a) For transactions where goods have already been delivered or services rendered, the equity instruments are issued on or about the date the performance is complete (and valued on the date of issuance). b) For transactions where the instruments are issued on a fully vested, non-forfeitable basis, the equity instruments are valued on or about the date of the contract. c) c) For any transactions not meeting the criteria in (a) or (b) above, the Company re-measures the consideration at each reporting date based on its then current stock value. F-20 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION (continued) In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (R), "Share-Based Payments," which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions (including the cost of all employee stock options) be recognized in the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS No. 123 (R) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SFAS No.123 (R) replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB 25. As originally issued, SFAS No. 123 established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that pronouncement permitted entities to continue applying the intrinsic-value model of APB 25, provided that the financial statements disclosed the pro forma net income or loss based on the preferable fair-value method. The Company is required to apply SFAS No. 123 (R) in the first interim or annual reporting period of the registrant's first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2005. Thus, the Company's consolidated financial statements will reflect an expense for (a) all share-based compensation arrangements granted on or after April 1, 2006 and for any such arrangements that are modified, cancelled, or repurchased on or after that date, and (b) the portion of previous share-based awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered as of that date, based on the grant-date estimated fair value. Management has not yet determined the future effect of SFAS 123 (R) on its consolidated financial statements. SIGNIFICANT RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions". The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured using the estimated fair value of the assets exchanged. SFAS No. 153 eliminates the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has "commercial substance" if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the transaction. This pronouncement is effective for nonmonetary exchanges in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections," which replaces APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes" and FASB Statement No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements." This pronouncement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and revises the requirements for accounting for and reporting a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. This pronouncement also requires that a change in the method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 retains many provisions of APB Opinion No. 20 without change, including those related to reporting a change in accounting estimate, a change in the reporting entity, and correction of an error. The pronouncement also carries forward the provisions of FASB No. 3 which govern reporting accounting changes in interim financial statements. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Statement does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of SFAS No. 154. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements. F-21 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) SIGNIFICANT RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued) In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155 entitled "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments," an amendment of SFAS No. 133 ("Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities") and SFAS No. 140 ("Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities"). In this context, a hybrid financial instrument refers to certain derivatives embedded in other financial instruments. SFAS No. 155 permits fair value re-measurement of any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 155 also establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets in order to identify interests that are either freestanding derivatives or "hybrids" which contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. In addition, SFAS No. 155 clarifies which interest/principal strips are subject to SFAS No. 133, and provides that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative. When SFAS No. 155 is adopted, any difference between the total carrying amount of the components of a bifurcated hybrid financial instrument and the fair value of the combined "hybrid" must be recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment of beginning deficit/retained earnings. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted only as of the beginning of a fiscal year, provided that the entity has not yet issued any annual or interim financial statements for such year. Restatement of prior periods is prohibited. The Company has not determined the impact of SFAS No. 155 on its future consolidated financial statements. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements. PATENTS The Company capitalizes the cost of patents and patents pending, some of which were acquired, and amortizes such costs over the shorter of the remaining legal life or their estimated economic life, upon issuance of the patent. STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS ISSUED WITH NOTES PAYABLE The Company granted warrants in connection with the issuance of certain notes payable (see Notes 6, 7 and 8). Under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 14, "Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued With Stock Purchase Warrants", as amended, the relative estimated fair value of such warrants represents a discount from the face amount of the notes payable. Accordingly, the relative estimated fair value of the warrants in those certain transactions where the warrants qualified for equity classification has been recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a discount from the face amount of the notes. The discount is amortized using the effective yield method over the respective term of the related notes payable. F-22 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) BENEFICIAL CONVERSION FEATURE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE The convertible feature of certain notes payable (see Notes 6 and 7) provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value. Such feature is normally characterized as a "beneficial conversion feature" ("BCF"). Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 98-5 ("EITF Issue No. 98-5"), "Accounting for Convertible Securities With Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio" and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-27, "Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments," the estimated fair value of the BCF is recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a discount from the face amount of the notes. Such discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective yield method. The Company has determined the unamortized fair value of such BCF to be approximately $127,761 and $0 for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. CLASSIFICATION OF WARRANT OBLIGATION In connection with the issuance of the 10% Series A Convertible Notes (see Note 7), the Company had an obligation to file a registration statement covering the common shares underlying the convertible notes and related warrants (the "Registrable Securities", as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). The obligation to file the registration statement met the criteria of an embedded derivative to be bifurcated pursuant to SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. Additionally, the Company was required to classify the warrant obligation as a derivative liability, recorded at its fair value, in accordance with SFAS No. 133 under EITF Issue No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled In, a Company's Own Stock." The classification of the warrant obligation was evaluated at each reporting date and until such time a registration statement which includes the shares underlying the warrants became effective, with changes in fair value included in earnings. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES The Company incurred approximately $754,000 and $497,000 of research and development expenses during the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which are included in various operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS The Company has not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Company's financial statements. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2005 financial statement presentation to Correspond to the 2006 presentation. 2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consist of the following at March 31, 2006: Furniture and office equipment $ 243,724 Accumulated depreciation (231,346) --------------- $ 12,378 =============== Depreciation expense for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 approximated $23,000 and $16,000, respectively. F-23 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. PATENTS Patents include both foreign and domestic patents. There was one patent pending at March 31, 2006 and 2005. The unamortized cost of patents and patents pending is written off when management determines there is no future benefit. During the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, patents with net carrying values of $81,722 and $0, respectively, were written off as impairment expense. At March 31, 2006, the gross carrying amount of patents and the related accumulated amortization approximated $157,000 and $26,000, respectively. Amortization of patents approximated $12,000 and $23,000 during the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amortization expense on patents is estimated to be approximately $9,000 per year for the next five fiscal years. Some of the Company's patents have expired and others may expire before FDA approval, if any, is obtained. 4. OTHER ASSETS Other assets consist of deposits at March 31, 2006. 5. DEBT-TO-EQUITY CONVERSION PROGRAM In March 2002, for a limited time, the Company extended an offer to certain note holders and vendors to convert past due amounts into restricted common stock and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company. The offer entailed the conversion of liabilities at a rate of one share and one-half of a warrant for every $1.25 converted. The warrants had an exercise price of $2.00 per share and expired three years from the date of issuance; none are outstanding at March 31, 2006 and 2005. 6. NOTES PAYABLE 12% NOTES From August 1999, through September 2000, the Company entered into arrangements for the issuance of notes payable from private placement offerings (the "12% Notes") in the original aggregate amount of $422,500. The 12% Notes bore annual interest at 12% (15% after maturity), required interest to be paid quarterly, matured one year from the date of issuance, and carried detachable warrants. These notes have no acceleration provisions. In June 2004, one such note in the principal amount of $12,500 plus accrued interest was repaid. In December 2004, each of two such notes in the principal amount of $25,000, plus $17,778 accrued interest, were converted to 87,303 restricted common shares at $0.49 per share. On May 27, 2005, the Company issued a promissory note to an accredited investor in an amount of $100,000 with 12% interest maturing on December 1, 2005. In conjunction with the issuance of the Note, the Company also issued a 12-month warrant to acquire 400,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.25 per share. Accordingly, this warrant has been valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and an associated discount of $41,860, was accreted to interest expense over the term of the Note. This entire amount was included in interest expense during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. At March 31, 2006, $372,500 of principal balance of the 12% Notes were outstanding and delinquent, in default, and bore interest at the default rate of 15%. F-24 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. NOTES PAYABLE (continued) 10% NOTES In October 2004, the Company issued two $40,000, 10% one-year promissory notes (the "10% Notes") each with 80,000 three-year warrants to purchase common stock at $0.50 per share and 44,444 three-year warrants to purchase common stock at $0.90 per share for cash in the total amount of $80,000 to two accredited individual investors. In accordance with GAAP, the proceeds of the financing have been allocated to the debt and the warrants, based on their relative fair values. Accordingly, a discount of $46,000 has been recorded as a reduction in the debt blance, and the off-setting credit has been recorded as additional paid-in capital. The debt discount is amortized and charged to interest expense over the life of the debt. During each of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company amortized approximately $23,000 to interest expense. The entire principal balance of the 10% Notes totaling $80,000, and associated accrued interest of $8,000, were repaid in October 2005. This transaction was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. In October 2004, the Company issued a $50,000, 10% one-year promissory note plus 100,000 three-year warrants to purchase common stock at $0.50 per share and 55,555 three-year warrants to purchase common stock at $0.90 per share for cash in the amount of $50,000 to an accredited individual investor. In accordance with GAAP, the proceeds of the financing were allocated to the debt and the warrants in fiscal 2005, based on their relative fair values. Accordingly, a discount of $38,000 was recorded as a reduction in the debt balance, and the off-setting credit was recorded as additional paid-in capital. The debt discount is being amortized and charged to interest expense over the term of the debt. During the year ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company amortized approximately $22,000 and $16,000 to interest expense, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2005, $20,000 in principal amount of this note was reduced through application of the note to exercise a portion of the warrants. On March 23, 2006 the Company issued 140,000 restricted shares of common stock in exchange for the remaining $30,000 principal balance and approximately $4,600 of accrued interest associated with this note. This transaction was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. From time to time, the Company issued convertible notes payable ("10% Note") to various investors, bearing interest at 10% per annum, with principal and interest due six months from the date of issuance. The 10% Notes require no payment of principal or interest during the term and may be converted to common stock of the Company at the conversion price of $0.50 per share at any time at the option of the noteholder. The total amount of the original notes issued was $275,000. There were two remaining 10% Notes outstanding at March 31, 2004. As of such date and through March 31, 2006, these notes were classified as notes payable since they were no longer convertible. In July 2004, the Company repaid one of the two remaining 10% Note in the principal amount of $10,000, plus accrued interest. This note was classified as notes payable as of March 31, 2004 since the note was no longer convertible at such time. The remaining 10% Note in the amount of $5,000, was past due and in default at March 31, 2006. At March 31, 2006, interest payable on this note totaled $2,375. 9% NOTE In April 2003, the Company issued a convertible note in the amount of $150,000 ("9% Note"), bearing interest at 9% per annum, with principal and interest due in June 2003, which is in default and currently bears penalty interest at 18% per annum. The 9% Note required no payment of principal or interest during the term and was convertible into common stock of the Company at the conversion price of $0.25 per share through June 2003 at the option of the noteholder. As this note is no longer convertible, the outstanding balance totaling $150,000 has been recorded as notes payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Notes payable, which are all in default, consist of the following at March 31, 2006: 12% Notes payable, all past due $372,500 10% Note payable, past due 5,000 9% Note payable, past due 150,000 -------- $527,500 ======== F-25 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. NOTES PAYABLE (continued) 9% NOTE (continued) Management's plans to satisfy the remaining outstanding balance on these notes include converting the notes to common stock at market value or repayment with available funds. 7. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE 8% CONVERTIBLE NOTE In November 2000, the Company issued convertible notes payable ("8% Convertible Notes") with original issue amounts totaling $395,000, bearing interest at 8% per annum, with principal and accrued interest due on November 1, 2002. The 8% Convertible Notes required the Company to file an effective registration statement by February 2001. The Company filed a Form SB-2 with the SEC in December 2000; however, such registration statement was never declared effective and was subsequently abandoned. However, as the underlying securities are no longer restricted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, the Company no longer plans on filing a registration statement in connection with this transaction. The Company accrued and expensed penalties approximating $244,000 through March 31, 2004 in connection with not filing an effective registration statement. During the year ended March 31, 2005 it was discovered that the penalties did not have to be paid. Accordingly, such amount was reversed in fiscal 2005 and is included as a credit to interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There was one remaining 8% Convertible Note with an outstanding principal balance of $125,000 at March 31, 2004. This note balance, including accrued interest of $38,370, was converted in September 2004 to 479,513 shares of common stock 15% CONVERTIBLE NOTE On May 16, 2005 the Company issued Fusion Capital ("Fusion") a $30,000 Convertible Promissory Note (the "Convertible Note") with an interest rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum that matured on August 15, 2005 (the "Maturity Date"). In addition, the Company issued Fusion a five-year warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share (the "Warrant"). In accordance with EITF Issue No. 98-5, EITF Issue No. 00-27 and APB No. 14, the Company recorded debt discounts associated with conversion feature and the warrants totaling $30,000 which was entirely amortized to interest expense during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. The Convertible Note and approximately $5,000 in associated accrued interest was exchanged for 174,716 shares of restricted common stock on March 23, 2006. 10% SERIES A CONVERTIBLE NOTES From July 11, 2005 through December 15, 2005 the Company received cash investments totaling $1,000,000 from accredited investors based on agreed-upon terms reached on the cash receipt dates. Such investments were documented in November and December 2005 in several 10% Series A Convertible Notes. The 10% Series A Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and mature on January 2, 2007. The 10% Series A Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at any time at the election of the holder at a conversion price equal to $0.20 per share for any conversion occurring on or prior to the maturity date. In addition, upon conversion, the Company is obligated to issue three-year Warrants (the "Series A Warrants") to purchase a number of shares equal to the number of shares into which the Series A Notes can be converted at an exercise price of $0.20. The Conversion Option SFAS No. 133 states that a contract issued by an entity that is both (a) indexed to its own stock and (b) would be classified in stockholders' equity if it were a freestanding financial instrument is not a derivative for purposes of that pronouncement. Management has concluded that the conversion option associated with the 10% Series A Convertible Notes is "indexed to the Company's own stock" as that term is defined by EITF Issue No. 01-6, "The Meaning of Indexed to Company's Own Stock". In addition, since such notes have been determined to be F-26 AETHLON MEDICAL, INC.

CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE (continued) 10% SERIES A CONVERTIBLE NOTES (continued) "conventional convertible debt instruments" as defined in EITF Issue No. 05-2, "The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument" in Issue 00-19", the requirements of EITF Issue No. 00-19 do not apply. Lastly, the debt host contract is not a derivative in its entirety and (based on SFAS No. 133) the conversion option need not be bifurcated from such contract. Therefore, the conversion option is not a derivative instrument as contemplated by EITF Issue No. 00-19 or SFAS No. 133. As explained below, the Company has therefore applied intrinsic value accounting to the BCF embedded in the conversion option. Intrinsic Value Accounting for the BCF The Company has accounted for the BCF associated with the 10% Series A Convertible Notes in accordance EITF Issue No. 98-5, EITF Issue No. 00-27, and APB No. 14. The convertible feature of the 10% Series A Convertible Notes provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value. The excess of the proceeds over the estimated fair value of the warrants (see "Accounting for the Warrants" below) was used to calculate the effective conversion price per share. Pursuant to EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27, the Company has estimated the fair value of such BCF to be $270,125 and recorded such amount as a debt discount against the face amount of the notes. Such discount is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. Total interest expense on the 10% Series A Convertible Notes for amortization of the above BCF debt discount totaled $142,365 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. Accounting for the Warrants Under this transaction, the Company is obligated to register for resale the common shares underlying the warrants, and as a result, the embedded derivative associated with this warrant obligation does not meet the scope exception of paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133. Specifically, at the commitment date, the Company did not have any uncommitted registered shares to settle the warrant obligation and accordingly, such obligation was required to be classified as a liability (outside of stockholders' deficit) in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19. The Series A Warrants were valued at $729,875 on the commitment date using a Binomial Lattice option pricing model. Such amount was recorded as a derivative liability and an offsetting debt discount against the face amount of the 10% Series A Convertible Notes. Such debt discount will be expensed as future conversions occur. On January, 2006, the registration statement which included the shares underlying the 10% Series A Convertible Notes and related warrants was deemed effective. Accordingly, the Company revalued the warrants at such date, totaling $1,090,000, with the change in fair value of the warrant liability totaling $360,125 expensed in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2006. If the effectiveness of the registration statement is not maintained, the Company could incur liquidated damages as described in the related registration rights agreement. 8.

INCOME TAX PROVISION Income tax expense for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate of 34 percent to the loss from continuing operations before provision for income taxes as a result of the following: 2006 2005 ----------- ----------- Computed "expected" tax benefit $ (993,000) $ (713,000) Reduction in income taxes resulting from: Derivative expense 122,000 -- Change in deferred tax assets valuation allowance 1,024,000 814,000 State and local income taxes, net of federal benefit (153,000) (125,000) Other -- 24,000 ----------- ----------- $ -- $ -- =========== =========== The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets at March 31, 2006 are presented below: Deferred tax assets: Capitalized research and development $ 2,401,000 Net operating loss carryforwards 4,401,000 Other 136,000 ----------- Total gross deferred tax assets 6,938,000 Less valuation allowance (6,938,000) ----------- Net deferred tax assets $ -- =========== The valuation allowance increased by $1,024,000 and $814,000 during the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The current provision for income taxes for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 is not significant and due primarily to certain state taxes. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the history of operating losses, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. A full reduction allowance has been recorded to offset 100% of the deferred tax asset. As of March 31, 2006, the Company had tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $11,600,000 and $6,300,000 available to offset future taxable Federal and state income, respectively. The carryforward amounts expire in various years through 2026. In the event the Company were to experience a greater than 50% change in ownership as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the utilization of the Company's tax net operating loss carryforwards could be severely restricted.

AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2006 NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Aethlon Medical, Inc. (the "Company") is a development stage therapeutic device company focused on expanding the applications of its Hemopurifier (R) platform technology, which is designed to rapidly reduce the presence of infectious viruses and other toxins from human blood. In this regard, the Company's core focus is the development of pathogens targeted as potential biological warfare agents, HIV/AIDS, and Hepatitis C. In pre-clinical testing, the Company has published that its HIV-Hemopurifier(R)removed 55% of HIV from human blood in three hours and in excess of 85% of HIV in twelve hours. Additionally, the HIV-Hemopurifier(R) captured 90% of gp120, a toxic protein that depletes human immune cells, during a one-hour pre-clinical blood study. The Hemopurifier(R) is in the development stage and significant research and testing are still needed to reach commercial viability. Any resulting medical device or process will require approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), and the Company has not yet begun efforts to obtain FDA approval and such approval may take several years. The Company is classified as a development stage enterprise under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and has not generated revenues from its principal operations. The Company's common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board of the National Association of Securities Dealers under the symbol "AEMD.OB". The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2007. For further information, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 2006, which includes audited financial statements and footnotes as of March 31, 2006 and for the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2006. NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY CONSIDERATIONS The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has experienced cumulative losses of $23,850,016 for the period from January 31, 1984 (Inception) through December 31, 2006. The Company has not generated significant revenue or any profit from operations since inception. A substantial amount of additional capital will be necessary to advance the development of the Company's products to the point at which they may become commercially viable. The Company's current plan of operation is to fund the Company's research and development activities and operations for the near future utilizing its existing financial agreement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC ("Fusion Capital"). Through December 31, 2006 the Company had received $1,905,001 and has $4,094,999 remaining available from this agreement. However, no assurance can be given that we will receive any additional funds under our agreement with Fusion Capital. Based on our projections of additional resources required to complete research, development and testing associated with our Hemopurifier(R) products, we anticipate that these funds will satisfy our cash requirements, including this anticipated increase in operations, in excess of the next twelve months. Based on the Company's projections of working capital required for operations and to complete research, development and testing associated with its Hemopurifier(R) products, the Company anticipates that these funds will satisfy its cash requirement in excess of the next twelve months. No assurance can be given that the Company will receive any additional funds under its agreement with Fusion Capital. However, due to market conditions, and to assure availability of funding for operations in the long term, the Company may arrange for additional funding, subject to acceptable terms, during the next twelve months. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required, and to generate sufficient revenue and operating cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis. F-45 NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The summary of significant accounting policies of the Company presented below is designed to assist the reader in understanding the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Such financial statements and related notes are the representations of Company management, who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and its legal wholly-owned subsidiaries Aethlon, Inc., Hemex, Inc. and Cell Activation, Inc.(collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Company"). These subsidiaries are dormant and there are no material intercompany transactions or balances. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the year in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "EARNINGS PER SHARE." Securities that could potentially dilute basic loss per share (prior to their conversion, exercise or redemption) were not included in the diluted-loss-per-share computation because their effect is anti-dilutive. There were 7,450,773 and 10,306,406 potentially dilutive common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006, respectively. There were 8,515,903 and 4,812,924 potentially dilutive common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005, respectively. PATENTS The Company capitalizes the cost of patents, some of which were acquired, and amortizes such costs over the shorter of the remaining legal life or their estimated economic life. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES The Company incurred approximately $308,120 and $635,235 of research and development expenses during the nine months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. For the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company incurred research and development expenses of approximately $144,301 and $156,947, respectively. EQUITY INSTRUMENTS FOR SERVICES The Company follows SFAS No. 123-R (as interpreted by 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 OR SERVICES") ("EITF No. 96-18") to account for transactions involving goods and services provided by third parties where the Company issues equity instruments as part of the total consideration. Pursuant to paragraph 7 of SFAS No. 123-R, the Company accounts for such transactions using the fair value of the consideration received (i.e. the value of the goods or services) or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company applies EITF No. 96-18, in transactions, when the value of the goods and/or services are not readily determinable and (1) the fair value of the equity instruments is more reliably measurable and (2) the counterparty receives equity instruments in full or partial settlement of the transactions, using the following methodology: (a) For transactions where goods have already been delivered or services rendered, the equity instruments are issued on or about the date the performance is complete (and valued on the date of issuance). (b) For transactions where the instruments are issued on a fully vested, non-forfeitable basis, the equity instruments are valued on or about the date of the contract. (c) For any transactions not meeting the criteria in (a) or (b) above, the Company re-measures the consideration at each reporting date based on its then current stock value. F-46 IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS SFAS No. 144, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF" addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the cost basis of a long-lived asset is greater than the projected future undiscounted net cash flows from such asset (excluding interest), an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses are calculated as the difference between the cost basis of an asset and its estimated fair value. SFAS No. 144 also requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting requirement to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the estimated fair value less costs to sell. Management believes that no impairment existed at or during the nine months ended December 31, 2006. BENEFICAL CONVERSION FEATURE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE The convertible feature of certain notes payable provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value. Such feature is normally characterized as a "Beneficial Conversion Feature" ("BCF"). Pursuant to EITF Issue No. 98-5, "ACCOUNTING FOR CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES WITH BENEFICIAL CONVERSION FEATURES OR CONTINGENTLY ADJUSTABLE CONVERSION RATIO" and EITF No. 00-27, "APPLICATION OF EITF ISSUE NO. 98-5 TO CERTAIN CONVERTIBLE INSTRUMENTS," the estimated fair value of the BCF is recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a discount from the face amount of the notes. Such discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes (or conversion of the notes, if sooner). DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES The Company evaluates free-standing instruments (or embedded derivatives) indexed to its common stock to properly classify such instruments within equity or as liabilities in its financial statements, pursuant to the requirements of the EITF No. 00-19, "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS INDEXED TO AND POTENTIALLY SETTLED IN, A COMPANY'S OWN STOCK," EITF No. 01-06, "THE MEANING OF INDEXED TO A COMPANY'S OWN STOCK," EITF No. 05-04, "THE EFFECT OF A LIQUIDATED DAMAGES CLAUSE ON A FREESTANDING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT SUBJECT TO EITF No. 00-19," and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES," as amended. The Company's policy is to settle instruments indexed to its common shares on a first-in-first-out basis. Based on the Company's evaluation, no derivative liabilities existed at or during the nine months ended December 31, 2006. CLASSIFICATION OF WARRANT ISSUANCE In connection with certain convertible notes, the Company has an obligation to issue warrants upon conversion of the notes, which are convertible at any time at the discretion of the noteholders. The obligation to issue the warrants meets the criteria of an embedded derivative to be bifurcated pursuant to SFAS No. 133, "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES" ("SFAS No. 133"), as amended. Under this transaction, the Company is obligated to and has registered for resale the common shares underlying the related warrants. At December 31, 2006, the Company has sufficient registered shares to settle the exercise of the related warrants. As a result, at December 31, 2006, the embedded derivative associated with this warrant obligation meets the scope exception of paragraph 11 (a) of SFAS No. 133. If such were not the case, these warrants would need to be classified as a liability. The classification of these warrants is evaluated at each reporting date. F-47 STOCK BASED COMPENSATION Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123-R, "SHARE-BASED PAYMENT." SFAS No. 123-R requires employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under stock participation plans to be accounted for under the fair value method and requires the use of an option pricing model for estimating fair value. Accordingly, share-based compensation is measured when all granting activities have been completed, generally the grant date, based on the fair value of the award. Prior to April 1, 2006, the Company accounted for awards granted under its equity incentive plan under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES," and related interpretations, and provided the required pro forma disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 123, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION," as amended. The exercise price of options is generally equal to the market price of the Company's common stock (defined as the closing price as quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board administered by Nasdaq) on the date of grant. Under the modified prospective method of adoption for SFAS No. 123-R, the compensation cost recognized by the Company beginning April 1, 2006 includes (a) compensation cost for all equity incentive awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of April 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all equity incentive awards granted subsequent to April 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123-R. From time to time, the Company's Board of Directors grants common share purchase options or warrants to selected directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors in payment of goods or services provided by such persons on a stand-alone basis outside of any of the Company's formal stock plans. The terms of these grants are individually negotiated and generally expire within five years from the grant date. In August 2000, the Company adopted the 2000 Stock Option Plan ("Stock Option Plan"), which was approved by its stockholders in September 2000. The Stock Option Plan provides for the issuance of up to 500,000 options to purchase shares of common stock. Such options can be incentive options or nonstatutory options, and may be granted to employees, directors and consultants. The Stock Option Plan has limits as to the eligibility of those stockholders who own more than 10% of Company stock, as defined. The options granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan may have exercise prices of no less than 100% of fair market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant (incentive options), or no less than 75% of fair market value of such stock at the date of grant (nonstatutory). At December 31, 2006, the Company had granted 47,500 options under the 2000 Stock Option Plan of which 15,000 had been forfeited, with 467,500 available for future issuance. All of these options vested prior to the adoption of FAS 123-R. The effects of share-based compensation resulting from the application of SFAS No. 123-R to options granted outside of the Company's Stock Option Plan resulted in an expense of $14,316 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and $23,816 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006. This expense was recorded as stock compensation included in payroll and related expenses in the accompanying December 31, 2006 condensed consolidated statement of operations. Share-based compensation recognized as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R as well as pro forma disclosures according to the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 for periods prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R use the Binomial Lattice option pricing model for estimating fair value of options granted. The following table summarizes the effect of share-based compensation resulting from the application of SFAS No. 123-R to options granted: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 31, 2006 December 31, 2006 Payroll and related $ 14,316 $ 23,816 ========== ========= Net share-based compensation effect in net loss from operations $ 14,316 $ 23,816 ========== ========= Basic and diluted loss per common share $ (0.00) $ (0.00) ========== ========= F-48 In accordance with SFAS No. 123-R, the Company adjusts share-based compensation on a quarterly basis for changes to the estimate of expected award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate for all expense amortization after March 31, 2006 is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed. The effect of forfeiture adjustments for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006 was insignificant. Pro forma information required under SFAS No. 123 for periods prior to April 1, 2006 as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to options granted under and outside of the Company's equity incentive plans was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 31, December 31, 2005 2005 ----------- ----------- Net loss as reported $ 594,375 $ 2,069,698 Less: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under the Binomial Lattice option pricing model -- 57,000 ----------- ----------- Pro forma net loss $ 594,375 $ 2,126,698 =========== =========== Basic and diluted loss per common share: As reported $ (0.03) $ (0.11) =========== =========== Pro forma $ (0.03) $ (0.11) =========== =========== Pro forma compensation expense reported in the above table is generally based on the vesting provisions in the related stock option grants. Share compensation expense in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006 relates to the vesting of existing grants (issued subsequent to April 1, 2006), the date the Company adopted SFAS No. 123-R and of grants issued during the current fiscal year. The following weighted average assumptions were used in the valuation of these instruments. 2006 2005 ------ ------ Annual dividends Zero Zero Expected volatility 89% 72% Risk free interest rate 4.82% 4.18% Expected life 5.0 years 5.0 years The expected volatility is based on the historic volatility. The expected life of options granted is based on the "simplified method" described in the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 due to changes in the vesting terms and contractual life of current option grants compared to the Company's historical grants. Options outstanding that have vested and are expected to vest as of December 31, 2006 are as follows: Weighted Weighted Average Average Remaining Aggregate Number of Exercise Contractual Intrinsic Shares Price Term in Years Value (1) ------------------------- ----------- -------- ------------- ---------- Vested 8,369,060 $ 0.39 5.58 $ 178,029 Expected to vest 835,000 0.25 5.92 $ 13,400 ----------- ---------- Total 9,204,060 $ 191,429 =========== ========== (1) These amounts represent the difference between the exercise price and $0.27, the closing market price of the Company's common stock on December 31, 2006 as quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol "AEMD.OB" for all in-the-money options outstanding. F-49 Options outstanding that are expected to vest are net of estimated future forfeitures in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123-R, which are estimated when compensation costs are recognized. Additional information with respect to stock option activity is as follows: Outstanding Options ------------------------------------- Shares Weighted Aggregate Available Number of Average Intrinsic for Grant Shares Exercise Price Value (1) --------------------------- --------- ------ -------------- ---------- March 31, 2006 467,500 9,012,785 $ 0.38 $3,875,498 ========== Grants -- 500,000 $ 0.27 Exercises -- -- -- Cancellations -- (308,725) $ 0.38 ---------- ---------- December 31, 2006 467,500 9,204,060 $ 0.38 $ 191,429 ========== ========== ========== Options exerciseable at: March 31, 2006 7,135,518 $ 0.39 December 31, 2006 8,369,060 $ 0.39 (1) Represents the difference between the exercise price and the March 31, 2006 or December 31, 2006 market price of the Company's common stock, which was $0.81 and $0.27, respectively, for "in the money" options. INCOME TAXES Under SFAS No. 109, "ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES," deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the difference between the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax basis. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts reported for income tax purposes, and (b) tax credit carryforwards. The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when, based on management's best estimate of taxable income (if any) in the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets may not be realized. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109." This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109,"Accounting for Income Taxes." FIN No. 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken (or expected to be taken) in an income tax return. It also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The requirement to assess the need for a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets is not affected by FIN No. 48. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. Management is in the process of evaluating this guidance, and therefore has not yet determined the impact (if any) that FIN No.48 will have on the Company's financial position or results of operation upon adoption. In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.157, "FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS," which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 simplifies and codifies related guidance within GAAP, but does not require any new fair value measurements. The guidance in SFAS No. 157 applies to derivatives and other financial instruments measured at estimated fair value under SFAS No. 133 and related pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a significant effect on the Company's financial position or results of operation. F-50 NOTE 4. NOTES PAYABLE At December 31, 2006, the Company had $502,500 in principal amount of notes payable outstanding with twelve noteholders. The Company is in default on these notes which are unsecured notes payable and is currently seeking other financing arrangements to retire all past due notes. At December 31, 2006 the Company had accrued interest in the amount of $333,629 associated with these defaulted notes payable. On December 15, 2006, the Company issued two 10% Convertible Notes ("December 10% Notes") totaling $50,000 to accredited investors. The December 10% Notes accrue interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and mature on March 15, 2007. Such notes are convertible into shares of restricted common stock at any time at the election of the holder at a fixed conversion price of $0.17 per share for any conversion occurring on or before the maturity date. In addition, upon issuance, the Company issued five-year Warrants ("December 10% Note Warrants") to purchase a number of shares equal to the number of shares into which the December 10% Notes can be converted at a fixed exercise price of $0.17. Additionally, if the December 10% Note Warrants are exercised prior to December 15, 2007, the holder will receive an additional warrant on the same terms as the December 10% Note Warrants on a one to one basis. The warrants can be settled in unregistered shares of common stock. The December 10% Note Warrants have been valued using a Binomial Lattice option pricing model and an associated discount of $15,627, the relative fair value measured at the commitment date, was recorded and presented net against the face amount of the December 10% Notes.

F-54 PART II Indemnification of Directors and Officers Our Articles of Incorporation permit us to limit the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted under Section 78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law. As permitted by Section 78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, our Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation also include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of each of its officers and directors for any obligations arising out of any acts or conduct of such officer or director performed for or on behalf of the Company. To the fullest extent allowed by Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, we will defend, indemnify and hold harmless its directors or officers from and against any and all claims, judgments and liabilities to which each director or officer becomes subject to in connection with the performance of his or her duties and will reimburse each such director or officer for all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such claim of liability. However, we will not indemnify any officer or director against, or reimburse for, any expense incurred in connection with any claim or liability arising out of the officer's or director's own negligence or misconduct in the performance of duty. The provisions of our Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation regarding indemnification are not exclusive of any other right we have to indemnify or reimburse our officers or directors in any proper case, even if not specifically provided for in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. We believe that the indemnity provisions contained in our bylaws and the limitation of liability provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons for these positions. No pending material litigation or proceeding involving our directors, executive officers, employees or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought exists, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened material litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our directors or executive officers. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed hereby in the Securities Act and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION The following table sets forth the estimated costs and expenses which we expect to incur with respect to the offering and sale or distribution of common shares under this registration statement.

Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or 5. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons under the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. If a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by any of our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by a controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 54 SIGNATURES In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing this Form SB-2 Registration Statement and authorized this Form SB-2 Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, in the City of San Diego, State of California on April 3, 2007.
