Australian Refundable Research & Development Credit
 
In March 2014, LipimetiX Development LLC, (see Note 9 in the financial statement included in this Form 10-K) formed a wholly-owned Australian subsidiary, Lipimetix Australia Pty Ltd, to conduct Phase 1a and Phase1b/2a clinical trials in Australia. Currently Australian tax regulations provide for a refundable research and development tax credit equal to 43.5% of qualified expenditures. Subsequent to the end of its Australian tax years, Lipimetix Australia Pty Ltd intends to submit claims for a refundable research and development tax credit. The transitional Australian tax periods/years granted for Lipimetix Australia Pty Ltd end on June 30, 2014, December 31, 2014 and thereafter December 31 of each succeeding year. For the tax year ended June 30, 2014, Lipimetix Australia Pty Ltd received a refundable research and development tax credit of AUD$227,000. For the tax year ended December 31, 2014 a AUD$242,000 refundable research and development tax credit has been recorded by Lipimetix Australia Pty Ltd, as it is more likely than not that the recorded refundable research and development tax credit at December 31, 2014 will be approved and received.
