Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

As used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” except where the context otherwise requires, the term “we,” “us,” “our” or “Cardo” refers to the business of Cardo Medical, Inc.

Overview

Cardo Medical, Inc. is an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. Reconstructive joint devices are used to replace knee, hip and other joints that have deteriorated through disease or injury. Spinal surgical devices involve products to stabilize the spine for fusion and reconstructive procedures. Within these areas, we are focused on developing surgical devices, instrumentation and techniques that will enable surgeons to move what are typically inpatient surgical procedures to the outpatient world. We commercialize our reconstructive joint devices through our Reconstructive Division and our spine devices through our Spine Division. We launched and commenced sales of our first product in late 2006, which was a high performance unicompartmental knee replacement. We commenced sales of our other reconstructive products in 2007 and our spine products in 2008.

As discussed below, in January 2011 we entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell substantially all of our assets in the Reconstructive Division to Arthrex. We expect to complete the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets during the second quarter of 2011. Additionally, we are currently in negotiations for the sale of substantially all of the assets in the Spine Division. Management anticipates that the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Spine Division will be completed during the second quarter of 2011. However, if the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets or Spine Division assets is not consummated, our cash position would require that we immediately raise working capital or cease operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Those material accounting estimates that we believe are the most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition are discussed immediately below and are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates.

Use of Estimates

Financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, which we refer to as U.S. GAAP, require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management makes estimates relating to allowances for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolete inventory items, the estimated depreciable lives of property and equipment, the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, share-based payment, deferred income tax assets and the allocation of the purchase price paid for the minority interests in Uni, Cervical and Accelerated Innovation. Given the short operating history of Cardo, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Discontinued Operations

On October 7, 2010, the Company’s management and Board of Directors decided to put substantially all of its assets up for sale. The assets determined to be held for sale were inventories, intellectual property, and property and equipment of its Reconstructive Division and Spine Division. The Company decided to put up for sale the assets of its Reconstructive Division and Spine Division primarily because it did not have sufficient working capital, and was not able to procure such financial resources through equity or debt financing, in order to fully execute a profitable sales strategy. In January 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex to sell the inventory and equipment relating to the Reconstructive Division for cash consideration of approximately $9.9 million, plus the carrying value of the Reconstructive Division inventory and equipment, which is expected to approximately $4.7 million. The Asset Purchase Agreement also provides for the Company to receive a royalty of 5% of future net sales of the Reconstructive products made by Arthrex for the next 20 years after the closing date. As a result, the Company expects to record a gain on the sale of these assets in 2011, and no loss has been reflected in 2010. The transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex are expected to close during the second quarter of 2011. The Company remains in negotiations to sell substantially all of the assets of its Spine Division. Management anticipates that the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Spine Division will be completed during the second quarter of 2011.

As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company’s two business segments have been discontinued. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement entered into in January 2011, the Company is to receive a royalty payment equal to 5% of future net sales made solely by Arthrex of the Reconstructive Division products for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date (see Note 10). The Company is currently unable to accurately estimate the future royalty revenue due to the uncertain nature of future sales made by Arthrex. In addition, there will be no significant continuing involvement by the Company in the operations of the discontinued operations.

Total sales associated with the discontinued Reconstructive Division and Spine Division reported as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, were $3,312,000 and $1,869,000, respectively. The total pretax loss associated with the discontinued Reconstructive Division and Spine Division, including the discontinued corporate support for those activities, reported as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, were $10,953,000 and $4,552,000, respectively. The only continuing operations reflected are expenses associated with business insurance, legal and accounting fees which the Company will continue to incur. The Company will also be receiving future royalty payments resulting from the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex. As a result, the Company will have administrative costs associated with the receipt and maintenance of any future royalty revenue. The prior year financial statements for 2009 have been reclassified to present the operations of the Reconstructive Division and Spine Division as discontinued operations.

The assets of the discontinued operations are presented separately under the caption ''Assets held for Sale’’ in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and consisted of the following.


(In thousands)	2010		2009
Inventories	$	2,990	$	3,256
Property and equipment		1,775		1,228
Intangible assets		—		4,353

	$	4,765	$	8,837

There was no gain or loss associated with the recording of the assets held for sale, which are recorded at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair values less cost to sell.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when it’s realizable and earned. Management considers revenue to be realizable and earned when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Persuasive evidence of the arrangements occurs when we receive a signed contract from the hospital in which the surgery will be performed. Within that contract is the price at which the hospital will buy the device. Delivery occurs on the day of surgery when the device is implanted by the surgeon. Collectability is reasonably assured as we have continuing relationships with the hospitals and can pursue collections if necessary. As we do not accept returns and do not have any post-sale obligations, the date of revenue recognition is on the date of surgery.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets Impairment

Goodwill and long-lived assets are assessed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Cardo conducts its annual evaluations for impairment at the end of the fourth quarter of each year. The Company concluded that there were no such events or changes in circumstances during 2009; however, during the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the changes in Cardo’s financial condition and continued inability to raise sufficient funds in order to fully execute a profitable sales strategy indicated the carrying values of its goodwill and other intangible assets may not be recoverable. Goodwill impairment testing is based on a two step process, where the first step compares the fair value of the reporting unit to the carrying value of the unit. If the first step test indicates impairment, the second step test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value using discounted cash flow projections. Long-lived asset impairment testing compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. These evaluations require us to make certain assumptions and estimate future revenues and profitability.

amounted to $5,283,000. The remaining value of goodwill and other intangible assets as of December 31, 2010 was $0.

Based on the assessments performed for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company determined that the fair value of the knee and hip reporting units were in excess of the corresponding assets’ carrying value as of December 31, 2009. Accordingly, no impairment charges were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to five years. When items are retired or disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between the net book value of the asset and the proceeds realized thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.

As a result of the Company announcing it was placing substantially all of its assets up for sale in October 2010, all depreciation on property and equipment stopped as of the announcement date. In addition, as of December 31, 2010, the carrying value of all property and equipment has been classified as assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Share Based Payment

In order to determine compensation on options issued to consultants, and employees’ options, the fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Management estimates the requisite service period used in the Black-Scholes calculation based on an analysis of vesting and exercisability conditions, explicit, implicit, and/or derived service periods, and the probability of the satisfaction of any performance or service conditions. Management also considers whether the requisite service has been rendered when recognizing compensation costs. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the components of the small cap sector of the Dow Jones medical equipment index for a period equal to the expected life of our options. We also measure the volatility of other public companies with similar size and industry characteristics to us for the same period. These measurements are averaged and the result is used as expected volatility. As there is no history of option lives at our company, the expected term of options granted is the midpoint between the vesting periods and the contractual life of the options. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The forfeiture rate is based on an analysis of the nature of the recipients’ jobs and relationships to us.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance related to a deferred income tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred income tax asset will not be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company recognizes all material tax positions, including all significant uncertain tax positions, in which it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained based on its technical merits and if challenged by the relevant taxing authorities. At each balance sheet date, unresolved uncertain tax positions are reassessed to determine whether subsequent developments require a change in the amount of recognized tax benefit.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis; and the inventory is comprised of work in process and finished goods. Work in process consists of fabrication costs paid relating to items currently in production. Finished goods are completed knee, spine and hip replacement products ready for sales to customers.

At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes an analysis of sales levels by product type. Among other factors, the Company considers current product configurations, historical and forecasted demand, market conditions and product life cycles when determining the net realizable value of the inventory. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventory. Management recorded an excess inventory reserve of $1,620,000 during the year ended December 31, 2010. Of this amount, $567,000 was allocable to the Reconstructive Division and $1,053,000 was allocable to the Spine Division. The inventory reserve is recorded as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. Cardo did not have any inventory considered by management to be excess or obsolete as of December 31, 2009.

As a result of the Company announcing it was placing substantially all of its assets up for sale in October 2010, the carrying value of all property and equipment has been classified as assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In 2010 the Company adopted the provisions of the Improvement to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities Topic of the FASB Codification. The topic requires a qualitative approach to identifying a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) and requires ongoing assessment of whether an entity is a VIE and whether an interest in a VIE makes the holder the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In 2010 the Company adopted the provisions of the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic "Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements” of the FASB Codification. This topic requires companies to make new disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and information on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In 2009 the FASB amended the provisions of the Revenue Recognition for Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements Topic of the FASB Codification. This topic amends prior guidance and requires an entity to apply the relative selling price allocation method in order to estimate the selling price for all units of accounting, including delivered items, when vendor-specific objective evidence or acceptable third-party evidence does not exist. These provisions are effective for revenue arrangements entered into or which contain material modifications in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, applied prospectively. This topic is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of the topic to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition for the Year Ended December 31, 2010 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2009

The following are the consolidated results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009. As discussed above, our Reconstructive Division and Spine Division were discontinued during 2010.

Net loss		(11,509	)		(5,078	)		(6,431	)		126.6	%

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased by $33,000, or 6.0%, as compared to 2009. General and administrative expenses represent our continuing operating expenses associated with remaining a public company, including business insurance expense and professional fees such as legal, accounting and audit services. The general and administrative expenses for 2010 remained consistent with 2009 as the nature of the continuing professional service fees were similar in each year.

Interest Income (Expense)

Net interest and other income for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased by $3,000, or 12.5%, as compared to 2009. Interest income during 2010 amounted to approximately $11,000, along with other income of $30,000 relating to the sale of certain instruments. These amounts were offset by interest expense of approximately $14,000 relating to short-term borrowings. Interest income in 2009 amounted to $24,000, and was higher than 2010 due to excess cash on-hand being higher during 2009. We had no interest expense during 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The most significant uses of cash during 2010 related to the build-up of inventory levels, which increased by $1,354,000, as well as the payment of salaries, professional services and research and development costs.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. During 2010, we spent $1.1 million on the acquisition of property and equipment. In 2009, we purchased substantially all of the assets of Vertebron, Inc., primarily their spine inventories, for $1.3 million and added over $1 million of instrumentation and other property and equipment.

Our net cash provided by financing activities was $500,000 during the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to approximately $9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. During 2010, we had proceeds from short-term promissory notes payable for $500,000. During 2009, we completed a private placement in June that provided nearly $3.1 million, net of direct costs, and another private placement in November for approximately $5.9 million,

net of direct costs. Subsequent to December 31, 2010, we entered into the Arthrex Note and as of March 22, 2011, we have borrowed a total of $972,000 under the Arthrex Note. Of the amount borrowed, $522,000 was used to pay off the Brooks Note and Brien Note (see Note 3 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements) and $450,000 was utilized to pay for vendors of inventory.

Our available funds are not projected to meet all of our working capital needs for the next twelve months. On January 24, 2011, we entered into the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement to sell all of the assets related to the Reconstructive Division for total cash consideration of approximately $14.6 million (see Note 10 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements). The sale is expected to close during the second quarter of 2011. The Company has begun negotiations with an unaffiliated third party for the sale of substantially all of the assets in the Spine Division. Management anticipates that the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Spine Division will be completed during the second quarter of 2011. However, there is no guarantee that we will successfully close the sale of our Reconstructive Division assets or Spine Division assets as planned. If the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets or Spine Division assets is not consummated, our cash position would require that we immediately raise working capital or cease operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

We have contractual operating lease obligations on our warehouse and office facilities in Clifton, New Jersey whose aggregate minimum annual payments are as follows for the years ending December 31.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Cardo Medical, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Cardo Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the year then ended. 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 audit.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cardo Medical, Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has continuing losses from operations, negative cash flows and limited cash to fund future operations. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We also have audited the adjustments to the 2009 financial statements to retrospectively apply the financial statement presentation of the discontinued operations, as described in Note 1. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2009 financial statements of the Company other than with respect to the adjustments and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2009 financial statements taken as a whole.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Cardo Medical, Inc.

We have audited, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the financial statement presentation of the discontinued operations as described in Note 1, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Cardo Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the year then ended (the 2009 financial statements before the effects of the adjustments discussed in Note 1 are not presented herein). 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 audit.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the financial statement presentation of the discontinued operations as described in Note 1, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cardo Medical, Inc. as of December 31, 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting described in Note 1 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by Marcum LLP.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the 2009 consolidated financial statements (not included herein), the Company has losses from operations, negative cash flows from operations, an accumulated stockholders’ deficit and limited cash to fund future operations. These matters, among others, raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters were also described in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cardo Medical, Inc. (“Cardo” or the “Company”) is an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. Reconstructive joint devices are used to replace knee, hip and other joints that have deteriorated through disease or injury. Spinal surgical devices involve products to stabilize the spine for fusion and reconstructive procedures. Within these areas, we are focused on developing surgical devices, instrumentation and techniques that will enable surgeons to move what are typically inpatient surgical procedures to the outpatient world. We commercialize our reconstructive joint devices through our reconstructive division and our spine devices through our spine division.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cardo, Accelerated Innovation, Inc. (“Accelerated”), Uni-Knee LLC (“Uni”) and Cervical Xpand LLC (“Cervical”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Discontinued Operations

As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company’s two business segments have been discontinued and no continuing cash flows are expected to be generated from the discontinued divisions subsequent to the expected disposal dates above. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement entered into in January 2011, the Company is to receive a royalty payment equal to 5% of future net sales made solely by Arthrex of the Reconstructive Division products for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date (see Note 10). In addition, there will be no significant continuing involvement by the Company in the operations of the discontinued operations.

Total sales associated with the discontinued Reconstructive and Spine Divisions reported as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, were $3,312,000 and $1,869,000, respectively. The total pretax loss associated with the discontinued Reconstructive and Spine Divisions, including the discontinued corporate support for those activities, reported as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, were $10,953,000 and $4,552,000, respectively. The only continuing operations reflected are expenses associated with business insurance, legal and accounting fees which the Company will continue to incur. The prior year financial statements for 2009 have been reclassified to present the operations of the Reconstructive and Spine Divisions as discontinued operations.

There was no gain or loss associated with the recording of the assets held for sale, which are recorded at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair values less cost to sell.

Management’s Plan

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company had a net loss of $11,509,000 and negative cash flows from operations of $4,277,000. The Company also had an accumulated deficit of $22,674,000 and had limited cash to fund its future operations. As discussed above, the Company was unable to obtain financing through debt or equity instruments in order to fund its future operations. As a result, on October 7, 2010, the Company’s management and Board of Directors announced the decision to put substantially all of its assets up for sale. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Accordingly, management took the following measures during the fourth quarter of 2010:

	•		terminated over half of the Company’s employees;

	•		had the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President forgo their salaries;

	•		reduced office space by not renewing the corporate headquarters facility lease;

	•		scaled back research and development activities;

	•		deferred manufacturing of inventories required to build additional base-level implant banks; and

	•		engaged an investment adviser to assist it in seeking alternative sources of capital; including selling of some or all of the Company’s assets and other strategic alternatives.

On January 24, 2011, after conducting a sale process with the help of an investment banking firm, the Company entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement to sell all of the assets related to the Reconstructive Division for total cash consideration of approximately $14.6 million, along with royalty payments equal to 5% of future net sales of the Company’s products for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date (see Note 10). The Company expects the sale of the Reconstructive Division will occur during the second quarter of 2011. The investment banking firm is also assisting the Company in connection with its intent to sell the assets of the Spine Division. The Company has begun negotiations with an unaffiliated third party for the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Spine Division. Management anticipates that the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Spine Division will be completed during the second quarter of 2011.

In view of the matters described above, recoverability of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are dependent upon the successful closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex for the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets, as well as the Company’s ability to sell the assets of its Spine Division in a timely manner. However, there is no guarantee that these sales transactions will close as expected. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its existence.

Use of Estimates

Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the

reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management makes estimates relating to allowances for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolete inventory items, the estimated depreciable lives of property and equipment, the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, share-based payment, deferred income tax assets and the allocation of the purchase price paid for the minority interests in Uni, Cervical and Accelerated. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. The Company has not experienced any losses related to this concentration of risk.

Accounts Receivable

The Company periodically assesses its accounts receivable for collectability on a specific identification basis. If collectability of an account becomes unlikely, an allowance is recorded for that doubtful account. Once collection efforts have been exhausted, the account receivable is written off against the allowance. The Company does not require collateral for trade accounts receivable and has not experienced any significant write-offs. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $51,000 and $0, respectively.

Inventory

As of December 31, 2010, the carrying value of inventories has been classified as assets held for sale on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (see Note 1). The amounts as of December 31, 2009 have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Property and Equipment

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $524,000 and $506,000, respectively. Depreciation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The carrying value as of December 31, 2009 has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of tangible net assets of acquired businesses after amounts allocated to other intangible assets. Other intangible assets include a royalty agreement, developed technology and customer relationships which are amortized on a straight-line basis over 2 to 10 years. Goodwill and other intangible assets were generated when the Company acquired the non-controlling interests of Accelerated, Cervical and Uni.

Amortization expense related to the intangible assets was $443,000 and $650,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Although the carrying value of the intangible assets as of December 31, 2010 was $0, the carrying value as of December 31, 2009 has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets Impairment

During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company’s management performed an assessment of its goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment. The Company’s management determined that the fair value of the knee and hip reporting units were not in excess of the corresponding assets’ carrying value as of September 30, 2010 and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $4,050,000 relating to other intangible assets during the quarter then ended. In addition, management recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1,233,000 against the goodwill associated with the knee and hip reporting units. The total impairment charge for the year ended December 31, 2010 amounted to $5,283,000. The impairment charge was allocated to the Reconstructive Division (see Note 9). The remaining value of goodwill and other intangible assets as of December 31, 2010 was $0. This impairment charge was made based on available information at the time during the third quarter of 2010, prior to any offers being received for purchase of the Reconstructive Division assets.

Other Assets

In September 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with a manufacturer to market and distribute their uni-polar and mono-polar hip products. As part of this agreement, the manufacturer granted non-exclusive licenses to the Company to use certain information and improvements so that the Company may obtain regulatory approval for the products that are the subject of the agreements, and in connection with the Company’s commercialization of those products. The total costs capitalized totaled $255,000 as of December 31, 2009. The amounts are being

amortized using the straight-line method over a period of five years, which represents the contractual life of the agreement. Amortization expense related to other assets was $34,000 and $51,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In conjunction with the assessment of Cardo’s other intangible assets for impairment described above, the Company’s management determined that the fair value of these capitalized costs were not in excess of their carrying value and included $107,000 in the $4,050,000 impairment charge above. As of December 31, 2010, the remaining book value of the capitalized costs amounted to $0.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has estimated the fair value amounts of its financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be appropriate and has determined that the book value of the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses, deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 approximate fair value.

Share-Based Payment

The Company recognizes equity-based compensation using the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is calculated based on the fair value at the time of the grant and is recognized as expense over the vesting period of the instrument in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue to be realizable and earned when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Persuasive evidence of the arrangements occurs when the Company receives a signed contract from the hospital in which the surgery will be performed. Within that contract is the price at which the hospital will buy the device. Delivery occurs on the day of surgery when the device is implanted by the surgeon. Collectability is reasonably assured as Cardo has continuing relationships with the hospitals and can pursue collections if necessary. As the Company does not accept returns and does not have any post-sale obligations, the date of revenue recognition is on the date of surgery.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company delivers its products to the customers and includes these costs in revenue. The related costs are considered necessary to complete the revenue cycle. Therefore, the Company records these costs as a component of the cost of goods sold.

Advertising Costs

The Company did not incur any advertising costs during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs consist of expenditures for the research and development of new product lines and technology. These costs are primarily payroll and payroll related expenses and various sample parts. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

For income tax purposes, prior to June 17, 2008, Cardo and its subsidiaries were treated as non-taxable enterprises. Income or loss generated was not taxed at the entity level, but rather passed directly through to the owners’ individual income tax returns. As a result, there is no provision for income tax for any period prior to this date. On

June 17, 2008, Cardo voluntarily elected to become a taxable enterprise. On August 29, 2008, Cardo effected a reverse merger with clickNsettle.com, Inc. (“CKST”), and adopted CKST as the taxpaying entity.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options or warrants. No dilutive potential common shares are included in the computation of any diluted per share amount when a loss from continuing operations is reported by the Company because they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had total options of 1,961,400 and 2,036,000, respectively, which were excluded from the computation of net loss per share because they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had 575,613 warrants which were also excluded from the computation because they were anti-dilutive.

Concentrations and Other Risks

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had 3 customers that accounted for 28.7%, 12.7% , and 11.7% of its accounts receivable. The Company had 4 customers that comprised 17.4%, 15.8%, 12.3%, and 10.5% of the Company’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2010.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had four customers that accounted for 28.2%, 15.6%, 15.4% and 10.0% of its accounts receivable. The Company had three customers that comprised 28.1%, 22.7% and 13.2% of the Company’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss consists solely of the Company’s net loss during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. As such, there is no statement of comprehensive income in these consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In 2010 the Company adopted the provisions of the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic “Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements” of the FASB Codification. This topic requires companies to make new disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and information on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

on January 1, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of the topic to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

	$	1,656	$	851

3. PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE

In November 2010, the Company entered into two secured promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”) with two individuals (collectively, the “Lenders”). The aggregate proceeds from the Notes were $500,000. One of the Lenders is the brother of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Notes matured on March 2, 2011 and March 4, 2011, respectively, which may be extended for up to 60 days by the Company, provided the Company gives the Lenders notice of such extension period at least two business days prior to the maturity date, and bear simple interest at 12% per annum.

In connection with the Notes, the Company entered into a security agreement with each lender, in which the Company granted a security interest, up to the amount of the principal and interest, in all of the Company’s right, title and interest in all of the Company’s assets, other than its accounts receivable.

The outstanding principal and accrued interest from the above Notes amounting to approximately $522,000 was repaid subsequent to the year end (see Note 10).

4. VERTEBRON TRANSACTION

At a hearing held on September 15, 2009, Cardo, the successful bidder at an auction sale, was authorized to purchase substantially all of the assets of Vertebron, Inc. (“Vertebron”) free and clear of all liens by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On September 29, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order memorializing the hearing held on September 15, 2009 (the “Order”).

As a result of the Order, on September 30, 2009, Cardo entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Vertebron Agreement”) with Vertebron, as a debtor-in-possession, to purchase substantially all of Vertebron’s assets, primarily consisting of inventories, excluding certain assets, such as accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents as of the closing date. Pursuant to the Vertebron Agreement, the purchase price for the assets was $1.3 million.

As of September 30, 2009, Cardo submitted deposits required by the Bankruptcy Court totaling $130,000. On October 1, 2009, the Company completed the transaction by wiring the $1.17 million balance due under the Agreement. Pursuant to the Vertebron Agreement, Cardo did not establish control of the assets acquired in this transaction until full consideration was received by Vertebron.

Following management’s analysis of the transaction, it was determined that the assets acquired under the Agreement would be accounted for as an asset purchase and not a business combination. Accordingly, the entire purchase price of $1.3 million was allocated to Vertebron’s spine inventory.

5. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Our authorized capital consists of 750,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our preferred stock may be designated into series pursuant to authority granted by our Certificate of Incorporation, and on approval from our Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2009 and 2010, we did not have any preferred stock issued.

On June 30, 2009, Cardo completed a private placement with investors to purchase 8,689,319 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share at a price of $0.35 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,041,260. These shares have a 24-month lock up provision.

On October 16, 2009 we issued an additional 485,714 shares of Cardo’s common stock with a 24-month lockup provision for gross proceeds of $170,000.

On October 27, 2009, Cardo sold 9,949,276 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $0.35 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,482,250 as part of a private placement for maximum gross proceeds of $6,500,000. On November 13, 2009, the Company completed the private placement by selling an additional 7,808,561 shares of its common stock for gross proceeds of $2,733,000. The Company filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to register for resale the shares and shares underlying the placement agent warrants issued under this private placement. The registration statement was declared effective on January 6, 2010.

In connection with this private placement, Cardo paid a finder’s fee of 8% on a portion of the gross proceeds and granted 575,613 share purchase warrants. Each share purchase warrant entitles the holder to immediately purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.44 per share and expires on November 13, 2014. The placement agent is a related party through a significant common shareholder.

The warrants had an estimated fair value of $552,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The assumptions used in the model were as follows: volatility – 303%, discount rate – 2.28%, dividends – none, and expected term of award – 5 years.

6. INCOME TAXES

The items accounting for the difference between income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate and the provision for income taxes were as follows:


(In thousands)	2010			2009
Statuatory federal income tax rate		34	%		34	%
State taxes, net of federal benefit		6	%		6	%
Permanent differences		-1	%		3	%
Change in valuation allowance		-39	%		-43	%

		0	%		0	%

Significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:


(In thousands)	2010			2009
Net operating loss carryforwards	$	5,443		$	3,574

Deferred tax assets, net	$	—		$	—

At December 31, 2010, the Company has Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) available to offset future taxable income of approximately $12,718,000 and $12,655,000, respectively. These NOL’s will begin to expire in the years ending December 31, 2028 and 2018, respectively. The Company’s NOL in California is currently suspended and is not available for use in 2011. These NOL’s may be subject to various limitations on utilization based on ownership changes in the prior years under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Based on its analysis, management does not believe that an ownership change has occurred that would trigger such a limitation.

Cardo periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is not judged to be more likely than not. Management considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction, expectations of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to Cardo for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, based on the weight of available evidence, management determined that it was unlikely that the Company’s deferred tax assets would be realized and have provided for a full valuation allowance associated with the net deferred tax assets.

The Company periodically analyzes its tax positions taken and expected to be taken and has determined that since inception there has been no need to record a liability for uncertain tax positions.

The Company classifies income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There was no accrued interest or penalties as of December 31, 2010 or 2009.

The Company is neither under examination by any taxing authority, nor has it been notified of any impending examination. Due to the Company’s recognition of losses since inception, all of the Company’s reporting periods are effectively open to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

7. SHARE BASED PAYMENT

On August 29, 2008, the Company issued options to certain employees and Board members to purchase membership units in Cardo. On the same day, Cardo completed the reverse merger transaction with CKST, in which the options converted to options to purchase common shares in CKST. The Company conducted an analysis of the fair value of the options immediately prior to the reverse merger, and immediately after the reverse merger and concluded that there is no change in value as a result of the reverse merger. Therefore, no additional compensation cost will be recognized related to the reverse merger.

The options granted give the grantees the right to purchase up to 2,398,400 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.23 per share. The options vest 20% each year over a five year period and expire after ten years. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted was $0.13 per option, for a total fair value of

approximately $300,000 which will be reflected as an operating expense over the vesting period of the options. The total expense recognized during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 in the consolidated statements of operations was $51,000 and $107,000, respectively. There were no options granted during the year ended December 31, 2009 or 2010.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Because the Black-Scholes option valuation model incorporate ranges of assumptions for inputs, those ranges are disclosed. To estimate volatility of the options over their expected terms, the Company measured the historical volatility of the components of the small cap sector of the Dow Jones medical equipment index for a period equal to the expected life of the Cardo options. It also measured the volatility of other public companies with similar size and industry characteristics to Cardo for the same period. These measurements were averaged and the result was used as expected volatility. As there was no history of option lives at Cardo, the expected term of options granted was the midpoint between the vesting periods and the contractual life of the options. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The forfeiture rate was based on an analysis of the nature of the recipients’ jobs and relationships to the Company. As a result of the announced sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets in October 2010 (see Note 1), other than the CEO and COO, Cardo will no longer have any employees once the sale is completed. As a result, the only options expected to vest are those held by the Company’s Board of Directors, CEO and COO, who are expected to remain with the continuing entity. As a result, the estimated forfeiture rate has been adjusted to 75.6%.

A summary of option activity as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and changes during the years then ended is presented below.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above is before applicable income taxes and represents the closing stock price as of the reporting dates less the exercise price, multiplied by the number of options that have an exercise price that is less than the closing stock price.

As of December 31, 2010, there were 585,000 unvested options and total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to these options of approximately $73,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.5 years.

8. LEASE COMMITMENTS

The Company leases some of its warehouse space on a month-to-month basis and has entered into an operating lease for the rental of office and warehouse space which expires in August 2012. The following table shows the aggregate minimum annual rental commitments for operating leases having initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year for the years ending December 31.

Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $243,000 and $209,000, respectively. Upon the completion of the sale of the Reconstructive Division under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the above lease will be assigned to Arthrex.

9. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s businesses are currently organized into the following two reportable segments; reconstructive products (the “Reconstructive Division”) and spine products (the “Spine Division”). The Reconstructive Division segment is comprised of activity relating to the Company’s unicompartmental knee, patellofemoral products, the total knee and hip products. The Spine Division segment is comprised of the spinal lumbar fusion system and cervical plate and screw systems.

The division into these reportable segments is based on the nature of the products offered. Management evaluates performance and allocates resources based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is segment operating results. Due to the distinct nature of the products in the Company’s Reconstructive Division, and the fact that it has a more developed market for its products, it is considered by management as a separate segment. The Company’s Spine Division is still in the process of developing the market and obtaining instrumentation necessary to sell the products in greater quantities. As a result of the unique characteristics of this product line, the Spine Division is considered by management as a separate segment.

As described in Note 1, on October 7, 2010, the Company’s management and Board of Directors decided to put substantially all of its assets up for sale, consisting of the inventories, intellectual property, and property and equipment of the Reconstructive Division and the Spine Division. As a result, all of the inventory and property and equipment associated with these divisions has been classified as assets held for sale.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company’s Reconstructive Division includes $1,233,000 of goodwill and $4,353,000 in other intangible assets relating to the Company’s uni compartmental knee product. During the year ended December 31, 2010, these amounts were determined to be impaired. As a result, a total impairment charge of $5,283,000 was recorded and allocated to the Reconstructive Division.

The following table sets forth financial information by reportable segment. The Company’s adjustments relating to its discontinued operations are reflected below. The information from 2009 has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. (“Arthrex”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell the assets of the Reconstructive Division, to Arthrex in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $9.9 million, plus the value of the Company’s inventory and property and equipment relating to the Reconstructive Division calculated as of the closing date. The Asset Purchase Agreement also calls for the Company to receive royalty payments equal to 5% of net sales of the Company’s products made by Arthrex on a quarterly basis for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date. Following the execution of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Arthrex delivered to the Company a $250,000 deposit to be credited against the cash consideration due at closing. From the cash consideration paid at closing, $900,000 will be deposited with an escrow agent for a period of twelve months from the closing date to be used for any adjustments to the value of the Company’s inventory and property, plant and equipment relating to the Reconstructive Division and for post closing indemnification claims which may be asserted by Arthrex with respect to unassumed liabilities. Cardo estimates that the value of their inventory and property, plant and equipment relating to the Reconstructive Division as of the closing date will be approximately $4.7 million. The Asset Purchase Agreement calls for the transaction to be completed by April 24, 2011 (the “End Date”). If the transaction is not completed by the End Date, Arthrex, under certain circumstances, can terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement

On March 18, 2011, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 24, 2011, with Arthrex. The first amendment modifies the definition of “End Date” so that it means May 24, 2011; provided that in certain circumstances if the closing has not occurred by May 24, 2011, the “End Date” shall be June 24, 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Arthrex can terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement if certain conditions have not been fulfilled or waived by the End Date.

On March 18, 2011, the Company and Arthrex executed a Secured Promissory Note in favor of Arthrex (the “Arthrex Note”). Under the terms of the Arthrex Note, the $250,000 deposit made by Arthex on January 24, 2011 pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement constitutes an initial loan. Under the terms of the Arthrex Note, Arthrex will (a) make a second loan to the Company of such amount to repay the indebtedness owed to Jon Brooks in the principal amount of $300,000 plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Brooks Note “) and the indebtedness owed to Earl Brien, M.D. in the principal amount of $200,000 plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Brien Note”), and (b) make additional advances within two business days of the written request of the Company; provided that in no event shall the aggregate principal amount loaned under the Arthrex Note at any time exceed $1,250,000. Pursuant to the Arthrex Note, the Company promises to repay to Arthrex the principal amount outstanding from time to time on the Arthrex Note together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the maturity date. The maturity date shall mean the earlier of: (i) the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) the fifth day following the termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to its terms, and (iii) the End Date (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement). Interest on the unpaid principal amount due under the Arthrex Note accrues at an interest rate of 6% per annum; provided that if an event of default occurs, interest on the unpaid principal amount due under the Arthrex Note shall increase to an interest rate of 12% per annum.

The proceeds obtained by the Company under the Arthrex Note were used to pay off the Brooks Note and the Brien Note and satisfy all obligations under the Brooks Note and the Brien Note and the security agreements relating to such indebtedness totaling $522,000 on March 18, 2011 (see Note 3). The outstanding borrowing from Jon Brooks was reflected as “note payable – related party” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010. Proceeds obtained from additional drawdowns on the Arthrex Note can be used for ordinary course working capital needs of the Company’s Reconstructive Division. In March 2011, the Company had additional drawdowns of $450,000 under the Arthrex Note.

Pursuant to the Arthrex Note, the Company granted, pledged and assigned to Arthrex a security interest in all assets (including the acquired assets as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), goods, inventories, properties and business of the Company, either tangible, intangible, real, personal, mixed, together with all proceeds or products thereof including, without limitation, all leasehold interests, all payments under insurance, or any indemnity, warranty or guaranty, which security interest shall rank senior to and have priority over those held by all other creditors of the Company.
