SUMMARY INFORMATION
 
Our Company

SignPath is a development stage biotechnology company founded in May 2006 to develop proprietary formulations of curcumin, a naturally occurring compound found in the root of the   Curcuma longa   (tumeric) plant, for applications in malignant diseases.
 
Curcumin has an extensive history as an oral medicinal product with safe human use, but its potential therapeutic benefits have been limited by its low absorption when taken orally, as well as its inactivation in the liver (due to hepatic glucuronidation). SignPath intends to develop Investigative New Drug (“IND”) applications and clinical trials for parenterally (taken into the body in a manner other than the digestive tract) administered curcumin. We believe that the liposomal and nano-sized formulations we have licensed could overcome absorption and hepatic inactivation problems associated with oral administration of unmodified curcumin extract, based on management’s experience and the opinions of our consultants to expand its use for concerns, Parkinson’s Disease and parasitic diseases the Company is developing three different intravenous nano-particle sized formulations. Proof of efficacy of these formulations against human tumor xenografts in mice was published. During IND pre-clinical toxicity trials in dogs with lipsomil curcumin, a dose-dependent hemolysis was observed, indicating specific dose/schedules of administration will be required for trials in humans.
 
SignPath has licensed two proprietary intravenous formulations containing curcumin as the active therapeutic agent. The first is a liposomal version licensed from University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (“UTMDACC”); the second is a nanosized version licensed from The Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”). The Company’s near term (next 6 to 12 months) goals are to complete preclinical development of the first two lead compounds, liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin, and file an IND with the FDA to begin Phase I safety studies. The Company believes its licensed formulations of curcumin change the product from a naturally occurring one to novel chemical entities making them potentially patentable. The Company seeks to develop these new products which potentially will give SignPath     proprietary curcumin preparations with applications in a broad spectrum of malignant diseases.
 
The Company has assembled leaders experienced in pharmacologic development of natural products to advise it on the development of its curcumin formulations. This Scientific Advisory Board is comprised of individuals with specific experience with natural products, formulation development, and malignant diseases. Expertise in chemistry will come from commercially based product chemists. Drug development will overseen by Lawrence Helson MD, Chief Executive Officer, an oncologist with 20 years of pharmaceutical development experience; Arniban Maitra, Phd,  MPPH, of JHU, who has expertise in nanotechnology, development of nanocurcumin, and testing for antitumor effects; and     Judith A. Smith, PhD, director of the UTMDACC pre-clinical development group for the liposomal formulation.
 
The Company’s Scientific Advisory Board members all bring relevant experience to the Company. Professor Tauseef Ahmad, MD is an experienced principal investigator for lymphoma, myeloma and solid tumor studies. See  “Management” below for more information about our management team and Scientific Advisory Board members.
 
Clinical application strategies will be based upon the advice of the individuals serving on the Scientific Advisory Board, all of whom have academic and practical experience in biopharmaceutical fields. We expect that our Phase I and II clinical trials, if and when conducted, will be run by clinical research organizations with whom we expect to establish collaborative relationships.
 
Our  pre-clinical IND development of liposomal curcumin is scheduled to be run by the UTMDACC group which has functional pre-clinical IND development procedures and experience. The JHU group is experienced with non-clinical development of nanocurcumin; however, the nanocurcumin pre-clinical aspects will be run by the UTMDACC research and development group. The latter has experience with curcumin and the capability of  guiding us through the  IND development process of both formulations.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION
 
We will distribute annual reports to our stockholders, including financial statements examined and reported on by independent certified public accountants. We also will provide you without charge, upon your request, with a copy of any or all reports and other documents we file with the SEC, as well as any or all of the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus or the registration statement we filed with the SEC registering for resale the shares of our common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus, other than exhibits to such documents unless such exhibits are specifically incorporated by reference into such documents. Requests for such copies should be directed to Dr. Lawrence Helson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, at SignPath Pharma Inc., 1375 California Road, Quakertown, PA 18951; telephone (215) 538-9946; fax: 215-538-1245; URL:www.signpathpharma.com.

We have filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC registering under the Securities Act the common stock that may be distributed under this prospectus. This prospectus, which is a part of such registration statement, does not include all of the information contained in the registration statement and its exhibits. For further information regarding us and our common stock, you should consult the registration statement and its exhibits.

Statements contained in this prospectus concerning the provisions of any documents are summaries of those documents, and we refer you to the documents filed with the SEC for more information. The registration statement and any of its amendments, including exhibits filed as a part of the registration statement or an amendment to the registration statement, are available for inspection and copying as described above.

RISK FACTORS
 
The securities offered hereby are speculative, involve a high degree of risk and should only be purchased by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment. Prospective purchasers should carefully consider, among other things, the following risk factors relating to the business of the Company and this offering prior to making any investment. You are strongly urged to consult with professional financial advisors, accountants, and lawyers in evaluating this investment and making an independent and informed decision about whether or not to invest your money in this offering.

Risks Related to Our Company

History of significant losses and risk of losing entire investment.

The Company’s financial statements reflect that it has incurred significant losses since inception, including net losses of $730,743 and $1,695,766 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and a loss from inception through June 30, 2010 of $3,784,341. The Company expects to continue to have losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable future, and it is possible that the Company may never reach profitability. Therefore, there is a significant risk that public investors may lose some or all of their investment.

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

Our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2009, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company’s planned business. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. If we are unable to raise additional capital or borrow money we will not be able to complete and file INDs with the FDA in order to commence clinical trials. If that were to occur the Company would be forced to suspend or terminate operations and, in all likelihood cause investors to lose their entire investment.

We are a development stage company, making it difficult for you to evaluate our business and your investment.

We are in the development stage and our operations and the development of our proposed products are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including:
 
 
·
the absence of an operating history;

 
·
the lack of commercialized products;

 
·
an expected reliance on third parties for the development and commercialization of some of our proposed products;

 
·
uncertain market acceptance of our proposed products; and

 
·
reliance on key personnel

Because we are subject to these risks, you may have a difficult time evaluating our business and your purchase of our securities.

No revenue for the foreseeable future, with substantial losses and no guarantee of profitability.

At this stage of its growth cycle, the Company has a limited operating history and no revenues, products ready for market, customers or marketing resources.
 
As a development stage company, the Company has a limited relevant operating history upon which an evaluation of its prospects can be made. Such prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in establishing a new business in the evolving and heavily-regulated pharmaceuticals industry, which is characterized by an ever-increasing number of market entrants, intense competition and high failure rate. In addition, significant challenges are often encountered in shifting from developmental to commercial activities.
 
In addition, we are subject to many business risks, including but not limited to, unforeseen capital requirements, failure of market acceptance, failure to establish business relationships, and competitive disadvantages against larger and more established companies. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will ever be able to generate revenues or, if the Company generates revenues, that it will ever be profitable, or that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds to continue its planned activities. Therefore, prospective investors may lose all or a portion of their investment. The Company does not anticipate that it will have any revenues for the foreseeable future.
 
Concentration of ownership by a Founder and its affiliates raises a potential conflict of interest between the Company, a Founder and certain of their employees.

Bruce Meyers, a Founder of the Company and President of Meyers Associates, owns 2,657,500 shares (22.6%) and Meyers Associates owns 2,200,000 shares (18.7%) of the 11,740,000 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and Imtiaz Khan, Managing Director of Meyers Associates owns 2,450,000 shares (20.9% of the Company). This concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and Meyers Associates and may be subject to potential conflicts of interest. As a result of Meyers Associates’ ownership of the Company, it is likely that in the event the Company becomes a publicly-traded company, Meyers Associates’ would not be able to serve as a market maker in the Company’s common stock. See “Principal Stockholders.”
 
The Company does not have the financing resources necessary to successfully complete development and market any formulations of curcumin.

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $64,699 cash on hand. The Company does not have any current sources of financing, to complete product development and marketing. If the Company is unable to attract sufficient additional capital, it will not be able to realize its growth plans. If the Company does find such financing, it may be on terms that are unfavorable or dilutive, to owners of the Company’s equity securities.

Our drug development program will require substantial additional capital to successfully complete it, arising from costs to:
 
 
·
complete research, preclinical testing and human studies;

 
·
establish pilot scale and commercial scale manufacturing processes; and

 
·
establish and develop quality control, regulatory, marketing, sales and administrative capabilities to support these programs.

Our future operating and capital needs will depend on many factors, including:
 
 
·
the pace of scientific progress in our research and development programs and the magnitude of these programs;

 
·
the scope and results of preclinical testing and human studies;

 
·
the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals;

 
·
the time and costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims;

 
·
competing technological and market developments;

 
·
our ability to establish additional collaborations;

 
·
changes in our existing collaborations;

 
·
the cost of manufacturing scale-up; and

 
·
the effectiveness of our commercialization activities.

We base our outlook regarding the need for funds on many uncertain variables. Such uncertainties include regulatory approvals, the timing of events outside our direct control such as negotiations with potential strategic partners and other factors. Any of these uncertain events can significantly change our cash requirements as they determine such one-time events as the receipt of major milestones and other payments.
 
We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact our ability to conduct our business. If we are unable to raise additional capital, when required, or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or the commercialization of one or more of our product candidates. Accordingly, any failure to raise adequate capital in a timely manner would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and future growth prospects.
 
Additional funds are required to support our operations but we may be unable to obtain them on favorable terms, we would be required to cease or reduce further development or commercialization of our potential products.
 
We will need to increase the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing growth.

We are a small company with one full-time employee, our CEO, as of the date of this prospectus. To conduct our clinical trials and commercialize our product candidates, we will need to expand our employee base for managerial, operational, financial and other resources. Future growth will impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including the need to identify, recruit, maintain and integrate additional employees. Our future financial performance and our ability to commercialize our product candidates and to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our ability to manage any future growth effectively.

The Company’s success is highly dependent on attracting and retaining key scientific and management personnel, but the Company may be unable to do so.

The Company’s future depends on the service of its scientific and management teams and other key personnel. The Company may be unable to attract highly qualified personnel, especially if it is unable to demonstrate to those individuals that it has sufficient funding to adequately compensate them either through current cash salary or with equity that could eventually have substantial value. If the Company is unable to attract highly qualified individuals, the Company may be unable to continue development or commercialization efforts of its proposed products which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.
 
We have no experience in manufacturing, sales, marketing or distribution capabilities.

The Company has no experience in manufacturing, selling, marketing or distributing any formulations of curcumin or any other product. The Company has outsourced production of raw materials for production of liposomal curcumin and will outsource production of good manufacturing practice (“GMP”) grade of liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin to commercial facilities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able successfully to sell, market, commercialize or distribute any formulation of curcumin or any other products at any time in the future.
 
Provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could discourage or prevent a takeover, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include:
 
 
·
authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred that could be issued by our Board of Directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt;

 
·
prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; and

 
·
advance notice provisions in connection with stockholder proposals that may prevent or hinder any attempt by our stockholders to bring business to be considered by our stockholders at a meeting or replace our board of directors.

If we lose the services of our Chief Executive Officer, our operations would be disrupted and our business could be harmed

Our business plan relies significantly on the continued services of our CEO, Dr. Larry Helson, age 77. If we were to lose his services, our ability to continue to execute our business plan would be materially impaired. While we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Helson, the agreement would not prevent him from terminating his employment with us. Dr. Helson has not indicated he intends to leave the Company, and we are not currently aware of any facts or circumstances that suggest he might leave us.
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
We are devoting our efforts to a limited number of product candidates, and there is no assurance of product success.

The Company is an early stage biopharmaceutical company and, since its inception, has focused mainly on research and development. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever successfully develop liposomal curcumin, nanocurcumin, or any other formulation of curcumin or any product whatsoever, or obtain FDA approval for clinical testing in the United States or any other country.

Our two curcumin formulations in development will require extensive additional development, including preclinical testing and human studies, as well as regulatory approvals, before we can commercialize and market them. We cannot predict if or when any of the product candidates we are developing will be approved for marketing. There are many reasons that we may fail in our efforts to develop our potential products, including the possibility that:
 
 
·
preclinical testing or human studies may show that our potential products are ineffective or cause harmful side effects;

 
·
the products may fail to receive necessary regulatory approvals from the FDA in a timely manner, or at all;

 
·
the products, if approved, may not be produced in commercial quantities or at reasonable costs;

 
·
the potential products, once approved, may not achieve commercial acceptance;

 
·
regulatory or governmental authorities may apply restrictions to our potential products, which could adversely affect their commercial success; or

 
·
the proprietary rights of other parties may prevent us from marketing our potential products.

Given our limited focus on two product candidates, if these product candidates do not prove successful in clinical trials, and are not approved or are not commercialized because we have insufficient resources for continued development or for any other reason, we may be required to suspend or discontinue our operations and our business could be materially harmed.
 
SignPath depends on intellectual property licensed from third parties which it may not be able to maintain.

The Company’s business plan depends on developing products based on intellectual property licensed from The Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”) and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (“UTMDACC”). See “Business - Intellectual Property.”  The Company’s license agreements require the Company to make payments to the licensors in the future. The Company currently does not have sufficient resources to make all of such payments, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to make such payments in the future.
 
The Company’s exclusive license with UTMDACC is for the life of patent rights or, if no patent rights are issued, for up to 30 years; however, is terminable upon 30 days’ written notice if the Company fails to cure a breach of payment or funding requirement, or upon up to 90 days’ written notice for any other breach of contract by the Company.
 
The Company’s license agreement with JHU is for the life of the last patent to expire or 20 years if no patents issue. It is terminable for a breach of contract by SignPath not cured within 30 days after receipt of notice.
 
Additional patents and pending patent applications filed by third parties, if issued, may cover aspects of products the Company intends to develop or may develop and test in the future. As a result, the Company may be required to obtain additional licenses from third-party patent holders in order to use, manufacture or sell the Company’s product candidates.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company’s current arrangements with JHU or UTMDACC, or any future arrangements will lead to the development of any products with any commercial potential, that the Company will be able to obtain proprietary rights or licenses for proprietary rights with respect to any technology development in connection with these arrangements or that the Company will be able to ensure the confidentiality of any proprietary rights and information developed with JHU or UTMDACC will prevent the public disclosure thereof. The Company is not aware of any litigation, threatened litigation, or challenge to intellectual property, however, once any patents are issued to the Company, we may be subject to future litigation.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain its existing license agreements or obtain additional necessary licenses on reasonably acceptable terms or at all. The Company’s inability to maintain its existing licenses or obtain additional licenses on acceptable terms would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The US FDA regulatory process is costly, lengthy and requires specific expertise.

The Company will rely initially on consultants and service organizations with prior experience working with the FDA to guide the product through the regulatory process. The Company expects to hire experienced employees and/or consultants to analyze, prepare and present Investigational New Drug (“IND”) applications to the FDA and conduct clinical trials. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals can be extremely costly and time-consuming, and there is no guarantee of success. If the Company does not receive approval of any of its IND applications, it will not be able to proceed with Phase I clinical testing. In addition, clinical testing is not predictable. Even if the FDA approves an IND application, the Company cannot guarantee that the FDA will approve Phase I clinical results. The Company’s failure to obtain required regulatory approvals would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and could require the Company to curtail or cease its operations.
 
Delays in clinical testing could result in increased cost to us and delay our ability to generate revenue.

We may experience delays in clinical testing of our product candidates. We do not know whether planned clinical trials will need to be redesigned or will be completed on schedule, if at all. Clinical trials can be delayed for a variety of reasons, including delays in obtaining regulatory approval to commence a trial, in reaching agreement on acceptable clinical trial terms with prospective sites, in obtaining institutional review board approval to conduct a trial at a prospective site, in recruiting patients to participate in a trial or in obtaining sufficient supplies of clinical trial materials. Many factors affect patient enrollments, including the size of the patient population, the proximity of patients to clinical sites, the eligibility criteria for the trial, competing clinical trials and new drugs approved for the conditions we are investigating. Prescribing physicians will also have to decide to use our product candidates over existing drugs that have established safety and efficacy profiles. Any delays in completing our clinical trials will increase our cost, slow down our product development and approval process and delay our ability to generate revenue.
 
We may be required to suspend or discontinue clinical trials due to unexpected side effects or other safety risks that could preclude approval of our product candidates.

Our clinical trials may be suspended at any time for a number of reasons. For example, we may voluntarily suspend or terminate our clinical trials if at any time we believe that they present an unacceptable risk to the clinical trial patients. In addition, regulatory agencies may order the temporary or permanent discontinuation of our clinical trials at any time if they believe that the clinical trials are not being conducted in accordance with requirements or that they present an unacceptable safety risk to the clinical trial patients.
 
The Company has not encountered any adverse effects in mice or rats with liposomal curcumin or nanocurcumin. However, studies in humans have not yet been initiated by the Company. Administering any product candidates to humans may produce undesirable side effects. These side effects could interrupt, delay or halt clinical trials of our product candidates and could result in the FDA or other regulatory authorities denying further developments or approval of our product candidates for any or all targeted indications. Ultimately, some or all of our product candidates may prove to be unsafe for human use. Moreover, we could be subject to significant liability if any volunteer or patient suffers, or appears to suffer, adverse health effects as a result of participating in our clinical trials.
 
If testing of a particular product candidate does not yield successful results, then we will be unable to commercialize that product.

Our product candidates in clinical trials must meet rigorous testing standards. We must demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our potential products through extensive preclinical and clinical testing. Clinical trials are subject to continuing oversight by governmental regulatory authorities, such as the FDA, and institutional review boards and must meet the requirements of these authorities in the United States, including those for informed consent and good clinical practices. We may not be able to comply with these requirements, which could disqualify completed or ongoing clinical trials. We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, the testing process that could delay or prevent commercialization of our product candidates, including the following:
 
 
11

 

 
·
safety and efficacy results from human clinical trials may show the product candidate to be less effective or safe than desired or those results may not be replicated in later clinical trials;

 
·
the results of preclinical studies may be inconclusive or they may not be indicative of results that will be obtained in human clinical trials;

 
·
after reviewing relevant information, including preclinical testing or human clinical trial results, we may abandon or substantially restructure projects that we might previously have believed to be promising;

 
·
we or the FDA may suspend or terminate clinical trials if the participating patients are being exposed to unacceptable health risks or for other reasons; and

 
·
the effects of our product candidates may not be the desired effects or may include undesirable side effects or other characteristics that interrupt, delay or cause us or the FDA to halt clinical trials or cause the FDA or foreign regulatory authorities to deny approval of the product candidate for any or all target indications.

Data from our completed clinical trials, when and if completed, may not be sufficient to support approval by the FDA. The clinical trials of our product candidates may not be completed as or when planned, and the FDA may not approve any of our product candidates for commercial sale. If we fail to demonstrate the safety or efficacy of a product candidate to the satisfaction of the FDA, this will delay or prevent regulatory approval of that product candidate. Therefore, any delay in obtaining, or inability to obtain, FDA approval of any of our product candidates could materially harm our business and cause our stock price to decline.
 
Even if we receive regulatory approval for our product candidates, we will be subject to ongoing significant regulatory obligations and oversight.

If we receive regulatory approval to sell our product candidates, the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities may, nevertheless, impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of such products, or impose ongoing requirements for post-approval studies. If we fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, we may be subject to fines, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals, product recalls, seizure of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecution. Any of these events could harm or prevent sales of the affected products or could substantially increase the costs and expenses of commercializing and marketing these products. In addition, if any of our product candidates receive marketing approval and we or others later identify undesirable side effects caused by the product, we could face one or more of the following:
 
 
·
a change in the labeling statements or withdrawal of FDA or other regulatory approval of the product;

 
·
a change in the way the product is administered; or

 
·
the need to conduct additional clinical trials.

Discovery after approval of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in actions such as:
 
 
·
restrictions on such products’ manufacturers or manufacturing processes;

 
·
restrictions on the marketing of a product;

 
·
warning letters;

 
·
withdrawal of the products from the market;

 
·
refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;

 
·
recall of products;

 
12

 

 
·
fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;

 
·
suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals;

 
·
refusal to permit the import or export of our products;

 
·
product seizure;

 
·
injunctions; or

 
·
imposition of civil or criminal penalties.

Our potential products face significant regulatory hurdles prior to commercialization and  marketing which could delay or prevent sales; No assurance of FDA approval.

The FDA and comparable agencies in foreign countries impose substantial requirements upon the introduction of therapeutic and diagnostic pharmaceutical and biological products through lengthy and detailed laboratory and clinical testing procedures, sampling activities and other costly and time-consuming procedures. Satisfaction of these requirements typically takes several years or more and varies substantially based upon the type, complexity and novelty of the product. The regulatory review may result in extensive delay in the regulatory approval process. Regulatory requirements ultimately imposed could adversely affect the Company’s ability to clinically test, manufacture or market potential products. Government regulation also applies to the manufacture of pharmaceutical and biological products.
 
Before we obtain the approvals necessary to sell any of our potential products, we must show through preclinical studies and human testing that each potential product is safe and effective. Failure to show any potential product’s safety and effectiveness would delay or prevent regulatory approval of the product and could adversely affect our business. The clinical trials process is complex and uncertain. The results of preclinical studies and initial clinical trials may not necessarily predict the results from later large-scale clinical trials. In addition, clinical trials may not demonstrate a potential product’s safety and effectiveness to the satisfaction of the regulatory authorities. A number of companies have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials or in seeking regulatory approvals, despite promising results in earlier trials.
 
The rate at which we complete our clinical trials depends on many factors, including our ability to obtain adequate supplies of the potential products to be tested and patient enrollment. Patient enrollment is a function of many factors, including the size of the patient population, the proximity of patients to clinical sites and the eligibility criteria for the trial. Delays in patient enrollment may result in increased costs and longer development times. In addition, under our license agreements with UTMDACC and JHU, these universities have certain rights to control product development and clinical programs for products developed under the collaborations. As a result, the universities may conduct these programs more slowly or in a different manner than we had expected. Even if clinical trials are completed, we or the universities still may not apply for FDA approval in a timely manner or the FDA still may not grant approval.
 
We will not have our own manufacturing facilities and will depend on third parties.

The Company has entered into a manufacturing agreement with Polymun Scientific Immunbiologische Forschung GmBh, Vienna, Austria, to encapsulate pure synthetic curcumin with lipid particles. We have also entered into a contract with Brookwood Pharmaceutical Inc. (now known as Surmodics Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) to synthesize polymer for noncurcumin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to obtain adequate supplies of liposomal curcumin or nanocurcumin that will remain stable for clinical trials and in amounts that will be sufficient for clinical trials and post-approval commercial production, if any. If the Company fails to source adequate amounts of curcumin, or if there is poor manufacturing performance on the part of the above-stated third party manufacturers, we may not be able to complete development of our product candidates, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and could require the Company to curtail or cease its operations.

Competition in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries is intense, and if SignPath fails to compete effectively its financial results will suffer.

SignPath’s business environment is characterized by extensive research efforts, rapid developments and intense competition. Its competitors may have or may develop superior technologies or approaches to the development of competing products, which may provide them with competitive advantages. The Company’s potential curcumin product candidates may not compete successfully. The Company believes that successful competition in its industry depends on product efficacy, safety, reliability, availability, timing, scope of regulatory approval, acceptance and price, among other things. Important factors to SignPath’s success also include speed in developing product candidates, completing clinical development and laboratory testing, obtaining regulatory approvals and manufacturing and selling commercial quantities of potential products to the market.
 
The Company expects competition to increase as technological advances are made and commercial applications broaden. In the event it develops its initial product candidates and any additional product candidates, the Company anticipates it will face substantial competition from pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other companies, universities and research institutions. The Company is aware of other companies and academic groups that focus on cellular signal transduction pathways and are developing specific pathway or related kinase inhibitors. These competitors include Exelixis Inc., Onyx Pharmaceuticals, and several major pharmaceutical companies.
 
Many of the Company’s competitors have substantially greater capital resources, research and development staffs, facilities and experience in conducting clinical trials and obtaining regulatory approvals, as well as in manufacturing and marketing pharmaceutical products. In addition, many of SignPath’s competitors may achieve product commercialization or patent protection earlier than SignPath achieves commercialization or patent protection, if at all.
 
If we or our collaborators receive regulatory approvals for our product candidates, some of our products will compete with well-established, FDA-approved therapies that have generated substantial sales over a number of years. In addition, we will face competition based on many different factors, including:
 
 
·
the safety and effectiveness of our products;

 
·
the timing and scope of regulatory approvals for these products;

 
·
the availability and cost of manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities;

 
·
the effectiveness of our marketing and sales capabilities;

 
·
the price of our products;

 
·
the availability and amount of third-party reimbursement; and

 
·
the strength of our patent position.

We also anticipate that we will face increased competition in the future as new companies enter our target markets and scientific developments surrounding cancer therapies and drugs for treatment of inflammatory conditions continue to accelerate. Competitors may develop more effective or more affordable products, or may achieve patent protection or commercialize products before us or our collaborators. In addition, the health care industry is characterized by rapid technological change. New product introductions, technological advancements, or changes in the standard of care for our target diseases could make some or all of our products obsolete.
 
The Company may be unable to defend or protect its intellectual property.

The Company intends to protect its intellectual property through patents and trademarks. The patent positions of biotechnology companies generally are highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions that will determine who has the right to develop a particular product or process. As a result, the Company cannot predict which of its patent applications will result in the granting of patents or the timing of the granting of the patents. Additionally, many of the Company’s competitors have significantly greater capital with which to pursue patent litigation. There can be no assurance that  the Company would have the resources to defend its patents in the face of a lawsuit.
 
 
14

 

Further, the Company relies on trade secrets, know-how and other proprietary information. The Company seeks to protect this information, in part, through the use of confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants, advisors and others. Nonetheless, there can be no assurance that those agreements will provide adequate protection for the Company’s trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information and prevent their unauthorized use or disclosure. While the Company is not aware of any challenges to its intellectual property, once any patents are issued to the Company litigation may ensue. There is also the risk that the Company’s employees, consultants, advisors or others will not maintain confidentiality of such trade secrets or proprietary information, or that this information may become known in some other way or be independently developed by the Company’s competitors.
 
SignPath is exposed to product liability risks.

The Company’s business exposes it to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the testing, including testing in human clinical trials, manufacturing, marketing and sale of biotechnology products. There can be no assurance that product liability claims will not be asserted against the Company.
 
We plan to have product liability insurance covering our clinical trials which we currently believe will be adequate to cover any product liability exposure we may have. Clinical trial and product liability insurance is becoming increasingly expensive. As a result, we may be unable to obtain sufficient insurance coverage at a reasonable cost to protect us against losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business. An individual may bring a product liability claim against us if one of our products or product candidates causes, or is claimed to have caused, an injury or is found to be unsuitable for consumer use. Any product liability claim brought against us, with or without merit, could result in:
 
 
·
liabilities that substantially exceed our product liability insurance, which we would then be required to pay from other sources, if available;

 
·
an increase of our product liability insurance rates or the inability to maintain insurance coverage in the future on acceptable terms, or at all;

 
·
withdrawal of clinical trial volunteers or patients;

 
·
damage to our reputation and the reputation of our products, resulting in lower sales;

 
·
regulatory investigations that could require costly recalls or product modifications;

 
·
litigation costs; and

 
·
the diversion of management’s attention from managing our business.

A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation.
 
The Company may be sued by third parties who claim that its products infringe on their intellectual property rights.

The Company may be exposed to future litigation by third parties based on claims that its patents, products or activities infringe on the intellectual property rights of others or that the Company has misappropriated the trade secrets of others. Any litigation or claims against the Company, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, could place a significant strain on the Company’s financial and managerial resources, and could harm the Company’s reputation. In addition, intellectual property litigation or claims could force the Company to do one or more of the following, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company or cause the Company to curtail or cease its operations:
 
 
·
Cease testing, developing, using and/or commercializing liposomal curcumin, nanocurcumin, or other formulations of curcumin or other products that it may develop; or

 
·
Obtain a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which could also be costly or may not be available on reasonable terms.

 
15

 

SignPath may be subject to damages resulting from claims that it or its employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers.

The Company’s current employee and/or future employees have been previously employed by other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies. Although no claims against the Company are currently pending or threatened, the Company may be subject to claims that these employees or the Company have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of their former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if SignPath is successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management. If the Company fails in defending such claims, in addition to paying money claims, it may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel. A loss of key research personnel or their work product could hamper or prevent its ability to commercialize certain product candidates, which could severely harm SignPath’s business.
 
Governmental and third-party payors may impose sales and pharmaceutical pricing restrictions or controls on SignPath’s potential products that could limit its future product revenues and adversely affect profitability.

The commercial success of the Company’s potential products is substantially dependent on whether third-party reimbursement is available for the ordering of its products by the medical profession for use by their patients. Medicare, Medicaid, health maintenance organizations and other third-party payors may not cover or provide adequate payment for SignPath’s potential products. They may not view the Company’s potential products as cost-effective and reimbursement may not be available to consumers or may not be sufficient to allow its potential products to be marketed on a competitive basis. Likewise, legislative or regulatory efforts to control or reduce health care costs or reform government health care programs could result in lower prices or rejection of its potential products. Changes in reimbursement policies or health care cost containment initiatives that limit or restrict reimbursement for the Company’s products may cause its revenue to decline.
 
Rapid technological change could make any products that SignPath eventually develops obsolete.

Biopharmaceutical technologies have undergone rapid and significant change and the Company expects that they will continue to do so. Any compounds, products or processes that SignPath develops may become obsolete or uneconomical before the Company recovers any expenses incurred in connection with their development.
 
We expect to rely heavily on third party relationships and termination of any of these programs could reduce the financial resources available to us, including research funding and milestone payments.

Our strategy for developing and commercializing many of our potential product candidates, including products aimed at larger markets, includes entering into collaborations with research partners, licensors, licensees and others. These collaborations will provide us with research and development resources for potential products. These agreements also will give our collaborative partners significant discretion when deciding whether or not to pursue any development program. Our collaborations may not be successful. Currently, we have collaborative relationships with JHU and UTMDACC. See “Business – Intellectual Property”.
 
In addition, JHU and UTMDACC may develop products, either alone or with others, that compete with the types of drugs they currently are developing with us. This would result in less support and increased competition for our programs. If either of our two licensors breach or terminate their agreements with us or otherwise fail to conduct their collaborative activities successfully, our product development under these agreements will be delayed or terminated.
 
We may have disputes in the future with JHU and UTMDACC, including disputes concerning who owns the rights to any technology developed. These and other possible disagreements between us and our licensors could delay our ability and the ability of the universities to achieve milestones or our receipt of other payments. In addition, any disagreements could delay, interrupt or terminate the collaborative research, development and commercialization of certain potential products, or could result in litigation or arbitration. The occurrence of any of these problems could be time-consuming and expensive and could adversely affect our business.
 
 
16

 

In general, collaborative agreements provide that they may be terminated under certain circumstances. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to extend either of its agreements with the universities upon their termination or expiration, or that the Company will be able to enter into new collaborative agreements with existing or new partners in the future. To the extent the Company chooses not to or is unable to establish any additional third party arrangements, it would require substantially greater capital to undertake research, development and marketing of its proposed products at its own expense. In addition, the Company may encounter significant delays in introducing its proposed products into certain markets or find that the development, manufacture or sale of it proposed products in such markets is adversely affected by the absence of such third party agreements.
 
We will rely on third parties to supply and manufacture our product candidates, without any direct control over the timing for the supply, production and delivery of our product candidates, thereby possibly adversely affecting any future revenues.

We will rely exclusively and be dependent on certain third party source suppliers to supply pure synthetic curcumin for our product candidates. Liposomal curcumin is manufactured in Vienna, Austria under contract with Polymun Scientific Immunbiologische Forschung GmbH. We have obtained initial quantities of liposomal curcumin from Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals (“SAFC”) and/or Sabinsa, Inc. of New Jersey. Nanocurcumin will be manufactured by either SAFC or Sabinsa. The polymer is manufactured by Brookwood Pharmaceuticals in Birmingham, Alabama. See “Business – Potential Commercialization of Liposomal Curcumin and Nanocurcumin; and Raw Materials; Supplies.”
 
If any of these arrangements terminate, locating additional or replacement suppliers for these materials may take a substantial amount of time. In addition, we may have difficulty obtaining similar supplies from other suppliers that are acceptable to the FDA. If we have to switch to a replacement supplier, we may face additional regulatory delays and the manufacture and delivery of our product candidates could be interrupted for an extended period of time, which may delay completion of our clinical trials or commercialization of our product candidates. As a result, regulatory approval of our product candidates may not be received at all. All these delays could cause delays in commercialization of our product candidates, delays in our ability to generate revenue, and increase our costs.
 
Further, our contract manufacturers must comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMPs, and other government regulations, which may limit the available sources of our needed supplies. The FDA periodically inspects manufacturing facilities, including third parties who manufacture products or active ingredients for us. The FDA may not believe that the chosen manufacturers have sufficient experience making the dosage forms that we have contracted with them to produce, and may subject those manufacturers to increased scrutiny. Pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities must comply with applicable cGMPs, and manufacturers usually must invest substantial funds, time and effort to ensure full compliance with these standards. We will not have control over our contract manufacturers’ compliance with these regulations and standards. Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in sanctions, fines, delays or suspensions of approvals, seizures or recalls of products, operating restrictions, manufacturing interruptions, costly corrective actions, injunctions, adverse publicity against us and our products and possible criminal prosecutions.
 
We will rely on third parties to conduct our clinical trials. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or meet expected deadlines, we may not be able to seek or obtain regulatory approval for or commercialize our product candidates.

We will need to retain a third party clinical research organization, or CRO, to implement, provide monitors and manage data for our clinical programs. We and our CRO are required to comply with current Good Clinical Practices, or GCPs, regulations and guidelines enforced by the FDA for all of our products in clinical development. The FDA enforces GCPs through periodic inspections of trial sponsors, principal investigators and trial sites. In the future, if we or our CRO fails to comply with applicable GCPs, the clinical data generated in our clinical trials may be deemed unreliable and the FDA may require us to perform additional clinical trials before approving our marketing applications. We cannot assure you that, upon inspection, the FDA will determine that any of our clinical trials for products in clinical development comply with GCPs. In addition, our clinical trials must be conducted with products produced under cGMP regulations, and will require a large number of test subjects. Our failure to comply with these regulations may require us to repeat clinical trials, which would delay the regulatory approval process.
 
 
17

 

If CROs do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or obligations or meet expected deadlines, if they need to be replaced, or if the quality or accuracy of the clinical data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols, regulatory requirements or for other reasons, our clinical trials may be extended, delayed or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or successfully commercialize our product candidates. As a result, our financial results and the commercial prospects for our product candidates would be harmed, our costs could increase, and our ability to generate revenue could be delayed.
 
The Orphan Drug Act may provide a competitor with up to seven years of market exclusivity.

The Orphan Drug Act was created to encourage companies to develop therapies for rare diseases by providing incentives for drug development and commercialization. One of the incentives provided by the act is seven years of market exclusivity for the first product in a class licensed for the treatment of a rare disease. We intend to target indications that would be covered by the Orphan Drug Act, and companies may obtain orphan drug status for therapies that are developed for this indication. In the event that any competitor of ours is first to obtain FDA licensure for a competitive product, we could be prevented from obtaining licensure and marketing our product candidates.
 
The commercial success of our product candidates will depend upon the degree of market acceptance of these products among physicians, patients, health care payors and the medical community.

Even if a product candidate is approved for sale by the appropriate regulatory authorities, physicians may not prescribe our product candidates, in which case we could not generate revenue or become profitable. Market acceptance by physicians, healthcare payors and patients will depend on a number of factors, including:
 
 
·
acceptance by physicians and patients of each such product as a safe and effective treatment;
 
·
cost effectiveness;
 
·
adequate reimbursement by third parties;
 
·
potential advantages over alternative treatments;
 
·
relative convenience and ease of administration; and
 
·
prevalence and severity of side effects.

We are subject to critical accounting policies, and we may interpret or implement required policies incorrectly.

We follow generally accepted accounting principles for the United States in preparing our financial statements. As part of this work, we must make many estimates and judgments about future events. These affect the value of the assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses that we report in our financial statements. We believe these estimates and judgments are reasonable, and we make them in accordance with our accounting policies based on information available at the time. However, actual results could differ from our estimates, and this could require us to record adjustments to expenses or revenues that could be material to our financial position and results of operations in future periods.
 
The obligations associated with being a public company require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from our business operations.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we establish and maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. As a result, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses. Furthermore, the need to establish the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may divert management's attention from implementing our growth strategy, which could prevent us from improving our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have made, and will continue to make, changes to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and accounting systems to meet our reporting obligations as a stand-alone public company. However, the measures we take may not be sufficient to satisfy our obligations as a public company. In addition, we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur in order to comply with these requirements. We anticipate that these costs will materially increase our selling, general and administrative expenses.
 
 
18

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, starting with the second annual report that we would expect to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission in March 2011, and may require in the same report, a report by our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  In connection with the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we may identify additional deficiencies. We may not be able to remediate any future deficiencies in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.
 
Risks Related to this Offering
 
The value of the Company’s common stock is not certain.

The conversion price of the Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants were arbitrarily determined through negotiations between the Company and Meyers Associates and bear no relationship to book value, assets, earnings, or any other accepted criteria of value. Accordingly, such prices should not be considered as indications of the actual value of our securities. The Company cannot assure that these prices will accurately reflect the value of the Company’s common stock once it is publicly traded or that these prices will be realized upon disposition of the Company’s common stock.
 
Absence of a public market for the securities offered hereby will lack liquidity.

There is currently no public market for any of the Company’s securities and there can be no assurance that a public market will develop in the future. Once this Registration Statement is declared effective, in the event there is no active trading market for the Company’s securities, an investor may be unable to liquidate an investment in the shares and, therefore, should be prepared to bear the economic risk of an investment in the shares for an indefinite period and to withstand a total loss of investment. Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act requires, among other conditions, a six month holding period prior to the resale of securities acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In the event we do not have sufficient financial and human resources in the future, we may not be able to fulfill our reporting requirements under the Exchange Act or disseminate to the public any current financial or other information concerning the Company, as required by Rule 144 as one of the conditions of its availability. In such event we will not be absolved from liability for our failure to file these reports.
 
If our common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, which is not a national securities exchange, it may be detrimental to investors

We intend to seek to have our shares of common stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board maintained by FINRA. Although there is currently no market for our securities, securities traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, as compared to the national securities exchanges, generally have limited trading volume and exhibit a wide spread between the bid/ask quotations. We cannot predict whether a more active market for our common stock will develop in the future. In the absence of an active trading market: investors may have difficulty buying and selling our common stock or obtaining market quotations; market visibility for our common stock may be limited; and a lack of visibility for our common stock may have a depressive effect on the mark price for our common stock.
 
Preferred Stock as an anti-takeover device

We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.10 par value. The preferred stock may be issued in series from time to time with such designation, voting and other rights, preferences and limitations as our Board of Directors may determine by resolution. Unless the nature of a particular transaction and applicable status require such approval, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue these shares without stockholder approval subject to approval of the holders of our preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without any further action by our stockholders.
 
 
19

 

Series A Preferred Stock may make it difficult to obtain additional funding

The approval of the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock is required for the Company to issue any capital stock with rights on parity with or senior to Series A Preferred Stock. While this limitation is designed to protect existing investors in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, it would also make it more difficult to obtain additional funding in the event the Company’s financial or business condition has deteriorated.
 
Our common stock will be subject to restrictions on sales by broker-dealers and penny stock rules, which may be detrimental to investors.

Our common stock will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, which imposes certain sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell our common stock to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act). For transactions covered by this rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. This rule adversely affects the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and purchasers of our common stock to sell their shares of our common stock.
 
Additionally, our common stock is subject to SEC regulations applicable to “penny stocks.” Penny stocks include any non-exchange listed equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The regulations require that prior to any non-exempt buy/sell transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule proscribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market must be delivered by a broker-dealer to the purchaser of such penny stock. This disclosure must include the amount of commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current price quotations for our common stock. The regulations also require that monthly statements be sent to holders of a penny stock that disclose recent price information for the penny stock and information of the limited market for penny stocks. These requirements adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock.
 
A significant number of our shares are eligible for sale, and their sale could depress the market price of our stock.

Sales of a significant number of shares of common stock in the public market pursuant to a current prospectus could harm the market price of our common stock. Pursuant to our registration statement (No. 333-158474), an aggregate of 4,674,228 shares of common stock were registered in August 10, 2009 and subject to the effectiveness of this registration statement together with an additional 1,487,220 shares of Common Stock, or an aggregate of 6,161,448 shares, will all be free-trading. As additional shares of our common stock become available for resale in the public market pursuant to this prospectus and otherwise, the supply of our common stock will increase, which could decrease its price. Some or all of the shares of our common stock may be offered from time to time in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, and these sales may have a depressive effect on the market for the shares of our common stock. In general, a non-affiliated person who has held restricted shares for a period of six months, under Rule 144, may sell into the market our common stock all of their shares, subject to the Company being current in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. An affiliate may sell an amount equal to the greater of 1% of the outstanding shares or, if listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange, the average weekly number of shares sold in the last four weeks prior to such sale. Such sales may be repeated once every three months, and any of the restricted shares may be sold by a non-affiliate without any restriction after they have been held the year.
 
Investors may experience substantial dilution of their ownership in the future.

Pursuant to the Stock Option Plan to be adopted, employees, directors and independent contractors may acquire up to an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock through the exercise of stock options that may be granted in the future. The Company’s stockholders will incur dilution upon exercise of such options. In addition, three are currently outstanding warrants to purchase approximately 2,721,224 shares of common stock and Series A Convertible Stock to purchase approximately 2,721,224 shares of Common Stock plus placement agent warrants to purchase approximately 1,381,948 shares of common stock. The mere existence of these derivative securities may have a depressive effect on any market for our common stock which may develop. Furthermore, if the Company issues or sells shares of common stock or any derivative securities for less than the $0.85 per share initial conversion price, the initial conversion price of the above-described Preferred Stock will be reset to such conversion price and the Warrants to 150% of the Preferred Stock conversion price, as adjusted, which will result in substantial dilution of new investors.
 
 
20

 

In addition, if the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional stock in one or more additional financings, further dilution to stockholders will result, and new investors may have rights superior to existing stockholders.
 
The Company’s officers, directors and principal stockholders may be able significantly to influence matters requiring stockholder approval because they will own a large percentage of the Company’s outstanding shares, even after this Offering.

The Company’s founder, Bruce Meyers, who is a principal of Meyers Associates, a FINRA member firm, Dr. Lawrence Helson, CEO, and Dr. Arthur Bollon, Director, beneficially own 4,857,500, 1,800,000 and 800,000 shares, respectively, of the 11,740,000 shares of Common Stock currently issued and outstanding, or approximately 63.5% of the 11,740,000 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. After giving effect to the conversion of all 2,412 outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, but not the exercise of the warrants, those persons will beneficially own in the aggregate 7,906,720 shares, or approximately 54% of the 14,578,924 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. These stockholders will be able to exercise control over substantially all matters requiring approval by the Company’s stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions, which includes their ability to amend the Certificate of Incorporation, approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with another company or approve the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company without the agreement of minority stockholders. This concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of all of the Company’s stockholders. See “Principal Stockholders.”
 
Limitations on ability to pay dividends.

The Company does not currently expect to pay cash dividends on any of its common stock for the foreseeable future. The ability of the Company to pay dividends on the Company’s common stock will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, if any, the success of the Company’s business activities, capital requirements, the general financial condition of the Company, and general business conditions. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever be in a financial position to declare and pay dividends on the Company’s capital stock or that the Board of Directors would otherwise ever declare or pay such a dividend.
 
The public offering price was arbitrarily determined and does not reflect our value.

The public offering price of the shares was arbitrarily determined and does not bear any relationship to our book value, assets, prospective earnings or any other recognized criteria of value.
 
You will incur immediate dilution as a result of this offering.

If you purchase common stock in this offering, you will pay more for your shares than the amounts paid by existing stockholders for their shares. As a result, you will incur immediate dilution of $1.27 per share, representing the difference between the initial public offering price of $1.00 per share and our as adjusted net tangible book value deficit per share as of June 30, 2010. See “Dilution and Other Comparative Per Share Data.”
 
Forward Looking Statements

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements in "Summary," "Risk Factors," "Business" and elsewhere. These statements relate to future events or future predictions, including events or predictions relating to our future financial performance, and are generally identifiable by use of the words "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "feel," "confident," "estimate," "intend," "predict," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks described under "Risk Factors" that may cause the Company's or its industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In addition to the risks described in Risk Factors, important factors to consider and evaluate in such forward-looking statements include: (i) the general economic recession and changes in the external competitive market factors which might impact the Company's results of operations; (ii) unanticipated working capital or other cash requirements including those created by the failure of the Company to adequately anticipate the costs associated with clinical trials, manufacturing and other critical activities; (iii) changes in the Company's business strategy or an inability to execute its strategy due to unanticipated changes in the therapeutic drug industry; (iv) the inability or failure of the Company's management to devote sufficient time and energy to the Company's business; and (v) the failure of the Company to complete any or all of the transactions described herein on the terms currently contemplated. In light of these risks and uncertainties, many of which are described in greater detail elsewhere in this Risk Factors discussion, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus will in fact transpire.
 
 
21

 

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither the Company nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such statements. We do not undertake any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus to conform such statements to actual results or changes in our expectations.
 
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
 
The public offering price was arbitrarily determined based primarily on the Company’s operations since the completion of the Company’s Private Placement. The price does not bear any relationship to our book value, assets, prospective earnings or any other recognized criteria of value.

If you purchase shares offered hereby, your ownership interest will be diluted. “Dilution” is the difference between the public offering price of the common stock and the net tangible book value per share immediately after the Offering. “Net tangible book value” is the amount that results from subtracting our total liabilities and intangible assets from our total assets. As of June 30, 2010, we had a net tangible book value deficit for our 11,740,000 shares of common stock outstanding of $(3,121,834), or approximately $(.27) per share. There will be no change in our net tangible book value as a result of the Offering, as we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares offered hereby. However, there will be an immediate dilution of approximately $1.27 per share to public investors, as the difference between the $1.00 per share public offering price and the $(.27) per share net tangible book value deficit.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in this prospectus. Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions as of the date of this filing. The cautionary statements made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this document. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. Factors that could cause differences include those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section as well as discussed elsewhere herein.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
June 30, 2010 as Compared With December 31, 2009

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had $64,699 and $295,418, respectively, of cash on hand. The Company’s working capital deficit increased from $(2,647,152) at December 31, 2009 to a deficit of ($3,125,140), as of June 30, 2010 as a result of a decrease in cash resulting from a loss from operations and an increase in derivative liability for preferred stock and warrants. SignPath had a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $3,784,341, as of June 30, 2010.
 
Since January 1, 2010 (the “2010 Private Placement”), SignPath sold 50 Units consisting of the same securities sold in the 2008 and 2009 Private Placement. The Company received gross proceeds of $50,000 and incurred stock offering costs of $8,000 related to this offering.
 
The Company has no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any officer, director or shareholder as to any future financing, either equity or debt. The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and it is possible the Company may never reach profitability. Therefore, the Company will require additional capital resources and financing to implement its business plan and continue its operations. The Company’s current burn rate for salaries, research programs and professional fees averages about $15,000 per month. Thus, it is expected that the Company currently has sufficient cash on hand to operate through December 31, 2010. Management believes it has enough funds to complete its pre-clinical trials. If the Company receives favorable results, Management believes it will have the ability to raise additional funds to complete INDs. In view of general economic conditions, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, that any affiliate will provide additional investments in the Company or that adequate funds for our operations will otherwise be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us.
 
Cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010 (“Fiscal 2010”) was $(264,329) compared to cash used of $(355,223) during the comparable period in 2009 (“Fiscal 2009”). This resulted from a net loss of $787,191 in Fiscal 2010, offset by adjustments for non cash expenses of $340,000 for stock issued for services and $137,560 related to changes in the carrying value of derivative liabilities along with an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $44,818. This is compared to a loss of $(561,476) during Fiscal 2009 what was offset by adjustments for non cash expenses of $115,580 related to changes in the carrying value of derivative liabilities along with an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $90,273.
 
The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $35,000 in Fiscal 2010 as a result of the $50,000 received in the 2010 Private Placement described above, reduced by $15,000 of offering costs. During the Fiscal 2009 Period, the Company had $432,446 of net cash provided by financing activities as a result of the $560,000 received from the 2009 Private Placement of Preferred Stock less the stock offering costs of $127,554.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company’s cash decreased by $230,719 during Fiscal 2010 from $295,418 to $64,699.
 
The financial statements included in this report have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate our continuance as a going concern. The Company has had no revenues and has generated losses from operation. As set forth in Note 1 to the audited Financial Statements, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependant upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company’s planned business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

December 31, 2009 as Compared With December 31, 2008

As of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had $295,418 and $181,128, respectively, of cash on hand. The Company’s working capital decreased from $104,129 at December 31, 2008, to $(2,647,152) at December 31, 2009, as a result of the adoption of ASC 815 which required a reclassification of the Company’s preferred stock from permanent equity into current liabilities. Absent this reclass, the Company’s working capital would have increased to $179,851 as a result of the sale of $810,000 securities to 13 different accredited investors offset, in part, by an increase of $40,968 in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company is a development stage company with a limited operating history. SignPath had a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $2,997,150, as of December 31, 2009.
 
Net cash used in operating activities during Fiscal 2009 decreased to $529,556 from $745,653 during Fiscal 2008. This resulted from a decreased net loss from $1,695,766 in Fiscal 2008 to a net loss of $730,743 in Fiscal 2009, offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $40,968.
 
The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $643,846 in Fiscal 2009 as a result of the $810,000 received in the 2009 Private Placement described above, reduced by $166,154 of offering costs. During Fiscal 2008, the Company had $923,927 of net cash provided by financing activities as a result of the $562,000 received from the 2008 Private Placement of Preferred Stock less the stock offering costs of $270,948 plus the $632,875 raised through bridge financing.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company’s cash increased by $114,290 during Fiscal 2009 from $181,128 to $295,418.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations. The list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. Note that our preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation and amortization policies on property and equipment and valuation allowances on deferred income tax losses. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund our business needs, including preferred stock with warrants attached and other instruments not indexed to our stock. The Company is required to record its derivative instruments at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

Revenue Recognition
 
As of the date of this disclosure, the Company has yet to recognize revenues. As the Company continues to develop and implement its business plan, revenue from the performance of services or sale of products will be recognized in accordance with FASB codification standards. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is provided, and collectability is assured.
 
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with FASB codification standards. The standard requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
Income Taxes
 
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted FASB codification regarding the required tax asset benefit computations for net operating losses carry forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB codification starndards, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.”
 
Plan of Operations
 
The Company's current focus is on the manufacture and preclinical development of its lead curcumin formulations (intravenous liposomal curcumin, oral and intravenous nanocurcumin) with a view toward filing two IND applications with the FDA. The Company's product candidates are still in the preclinical development phase.
 
The Company believes that a novel pharmaceutical preparation with enhanced absorption of the active compound with resistance to hepatic inactivation could potentially have greater clinical efficacy than the oral versions. The laboratory and oral administration studies by other researchers to date suggest that curcumin has high potency. The Company believes that an alternate route for administering this compound, such as the Company's parenteral (taken into the body other than through the digestive canal) formulation, could be more effective at lower dosages. SignPath intends to develop a parenteral liposomal formulation, and a nanoparticle formulation, nanocurcumin, to overcome the limitations of the oral form.
 
SignPath believes that the dual development and comparison of liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin could expose potential differences in biological effects and distribution to different tissues. The Company intends to manufacture good manufacturing practice (GMP) grade of liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin. Both formulations will require outsourcing production to one or more commercial facilities. Our initial goals are to obtain sufficient material for in vitro and animal analysis and to develop these formulations in order to submit INDs to the FDA. Determination of safety, dosage, and efficacy of these formulations in a quantifiable manner will permit us to pursue clinical registration trials for a variety of malignant diseases. Following submission of the INDs, the Company plans to initially run Phase I studies with both of the parenteral formulations in patients with treatment refractory malignant disease. Subsequently, if the Phase I trials are successful, the Company plans to seek FDA authorization to run Phase II trials in selected malignancies.

Liposomal curcumin: The Company has agreements with contract manufacturers for the manufacture, chemistry. and controls for supplies of the drugs to be tested. Liposomal curcumin is manufactured by our contract manufacturer, Polymun, Inc. Initial quantities of GMP grade liposomal curcumin to conduct preclinical studies to corroborate previously published data from other researchers were obtained from Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals ("SAFC") or from Sabinsa. Final production of liposmal curcumin GMP was completed at Polymun in Vienna, Austria during 2009. Using Iipocurc, anti-cancer activity without toxicity in human colon and pancreatic cancer xenograft models were published.  Following the determination of safety and the optimum dosage and schedule in the most sensitive of the three species, we will be able to estimate starting dosages for Phase I trials in humans. We plan to outsource corroborative studies of Iiposomal absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), and pharmacokinetics in rats with the aim of estimating optimum dosage schedules, as well as dosage and safety in mice, rats and dogs to satisfy IND regulations to GLP laboratories in M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas.

Nanocurcumin: The Company intends to obtain commercial volumes of purified curcumin from third party manufacturers, SAFC and/or Sabinsa, in quantities suitable to satisfy preclinical and clinical demands. The Company believes that the manufacture of Iiposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin can also be scaled up as necessary since these additional substances are readily available from commercial sources utilizing established production technologies. We plan to outsource nanocurcumin pre-clinical development to M.D. Anderson. We will continue non-clinical and preclinical analyses of nanocurcumin at the NCI Nanocharacterization Laboratory. The nanocurcumin program will be managed by M.D. Anderson through the filing of the Company's IND. However, we intend to develop direct injection nanocurc, a new clinical entity at Johns Hopkins Cancer Center for preventive therapy of inducted curcumin in situ in rats. Nanocurc, a parenteral formulation of nanocurcumin in human pancreatic cancer xenografts in nude mice has demonstrated anti-cancer effects. This formulation has activity against breast cancer-DCIS and passes the blood brain barrier. During late 2010, we intend to conduct a European Phase I dose funding in Parkinson's Disease for volunteers in collaboration with Polymun, Vienna, Austria. Upon completion, we will also continue studies of nanocurcumin, PLGA-nanocurcumin and lipsomal curcumin against L-DOPA induced dyskinesias in dogs. We will measure inhibiting effects of curcumin on disease progression in Parkinson's Disease patients at the University of Western Ontario, Canada. Contracts with these institutions will be initiated upon receipt of manufactured nanocurcumin.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the normal course of business, our financial position is routinely subject to a variety of risks, including market risk associated with interest rate movement. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices intended to protect against these and other exposures. As a result, we do not anticipate material potential losses in these areas.
 
As of June 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $64,699.
 
BUSINESS
 
Company Overview
 
SignPath is a development stage biotechnology company founded in May 2006 to develop proprietary formulations of curcumin, a naturally occurring compound found in the root of the   Curcuma longa   (tumeric) plant, for applications in malignant diseases.
 
Curcumin has an extensive history as an oral medicinal product with safe human use, but its potential therapeutic benefits have been limited by its low absorption when taken orally, as well as its inactivation in the liver (due to hepatic glucuronidation). SignPath intends to develop Investigative New Drug (“IND”) applications and clinical trials for parenterally (taken into the body in a manner other than the digestive tract) administered curcumin. We believe that the liposomal and nano-sized formulations we have licensed could overcome absorption and hepatic inactivation problems associated with oral administration of unmodified curcumin extract, based on management’s experience and the opinions of our consultants to expand its use for concerns, Parkinson’s Disease and parasitic diseases the Company is developing three different intravenous nano-particle sized formulations. Proof of efficacy of these formulations against human tumor xenografts in mice was published. During IND pre-clinical toxicity trials in dogs with lipsomil curcumin, a dose-dependent hemolysis was observed, indicating specific dose/schedules of administration will be required for trials in humans.

 
31

 
 
SignPath has licensed two proprietary intravenous formulations containing curcumin as the active therapeutic agent. The first is a liposomal version licensed from University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (“UTMDACC”); the second is a nanosized version licensed from The Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”). The Company’s near term (next 6 to 12 months) goals are to complete preclinical development of the first two lead compounds, liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin, and file an IND with the FDA to begin Phase I safety studies. The Company believes its licensed formulations of curcumin change the product from a naturally occurring one to novel chemical entities making them potentially patentable. The Company seeks to develop these new products which potentially will give SignPath     proprietary curcumin preparations with applications in a broad spectrum of malignant diseases.
 
The Company has assembled leaders experienced in pharmacologic development of natural products to advise it on the development of its curcumin formulations. This Scientific Advisory Board is comprised of individuals with specific experience with natural products, formulation development, and malignant diseases. Expertise in chemistry will come from commercially based product chemists. Drug development will overseen by Lawrence Helson MD, Chief Executive Officer, an oncologist with 20 years of pharmaceutical development experience; Arniban Maitra, Phd,  MPPH, of JHU, who has expertise in nanotechnology, development of nanocurcumin, and testing for antitumor effects; and     Judith A Smith, PhD, director of the UTMDACC pre-clinical development group for the liposomal formulation.
 
The Company’s Scientific Advisory Board members all bring relevant experience to the Company. Professor Tauseef Ahmad, MD is an experienced principal investigator for lymphoma, myeloma and solid tumor studies. See “Management” below for more information about our management team and Scientific Advisory Board members.
 
Clinical application strategies will be based upon the advice of the individuals serving on the Scientific Advisory Board, all of whom have academic and practical experience in biopharmaceutical fields. We expect that our Phase I and II clinical trials, if and when conducted, will be run by clinical research organizations with whom we expect to establish collaborative relationships.
 
Our  pre-clinical IND development of liposomal curcumin is scheduled to be run by the UTMDACC group which has functional pre-clinical IND development procedures and experience. The JHU group is experienced with non-clinical development of nanocurcumin; however,  the nanocurcumin pre-clinical aspects will be run by the UTMDACC research and development group. The latter has experience with curcumin and the capability of  guiding us through the  IND development process of both formulations.
 
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company expended $215,938 and $263,886, respectively, for net research and development. This consisted primarily of payments made to JHU and Brookwood Pharmaceuticals under agreements described below.
 
SignPath is a publicly-held non-listed Delaware corporation with offices in Quakertown, Pennsylvania in a building owned by our CEO. The Company does not pay rent or have a lease for its space.

Target Markets
 
The anticipated markets for therapeutic curcumin are diseases for which current therapeutic alternatives are not satisfactory. There are several malignant diseases which are classified as orphan indications, defined by the FDA as conditions with less than 200,000 patients in the United States. Some of these conditions exhibit dependency upon NFκB (NF kappa-B, a family of intracellular proteins), a signaling pathway component inhibited by curcumin. (1)   Two such indications are multiple myeloma and pancreatic cancer. The Company currently plans to pursue the development and testing of therapies with parenterally-administered curcumin to address multiple myeloma and pancreatic cancer, two forms of cancer in which current treatment is only marginally effective or could be greatly improved.
 
Preclinical studies conducted by other scientists of curcumin-based treatments in cancer (2) therapy suggest it may have an application as a parenteral drug for both prophylaxis and therapy. There are current trials with oral curcumin for these diseases by other research groups at various stages of clinical development. While these preclinical data show potentially beneficial activity and follow well-defined mechanisms of action, (2) the parenteral route has not yet been substantiated as effective in controlled clinical trials. The Company’s goal is to establish the efficacy of parenterally administered curcumin.
 
Pancreatic cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths, accounting for an estimated 30,000 deaths annually in the United States, according to published reports found in Burro, H.A. et al (Item 5, Appendix B). This cancer is largely resistant to the current approved drug, gemcitabene, and results in an objective tumor response in only 5% of patients resulting in a minor impact on survival. (3)   Pancreatic cancer, thus, remains an unmet clinical need. We believe that most patients with this diagnosis could be candidates for controlled clinical trials alone or in combination with gemcitabene in clinical trials.
 
Other potential susceptible tumor types are primary and metastatic brain tumors and multiple myeloma in adults. The market for glioblastoma multiforme and other malignant gliomas has an incidence of about 17,000 per year, or 59 per million of the population, according to the scientific literature. (4)   Although this represents just 2% of cancer deaths in the United States, survival rates are quite low and cost of treatment is high. Following standard therapy, the median survival of glioblastoma patients is 9 to 11 months with less than 5% of patients alive after 5 years. In addition, metastases to the brain from other sites affect an estimated 75,000 patients per year and have very poor survival rates, making primary and metastatic brain tumors a clear unmet need. The annual incidence of multiple myeloma is 15,000 cases in the United States. Multiple myeloma is responsible for 10% to 20% of the hematological malignancies, with skeletal involvement in about 80% of the patients. (5)   This disease has been shown by other non-Company researchers to have an increased expression of the curcumin-sensitive signaling pathway, which the Company believes may make it susceptible to therapy with our product candidates. Based upon pre-clinical studies conducted by other scientists with curcumin, we believe the potential patient population could include the majority of these patients following failure of standard treatment, or as testing advances, in combination therapy or as a first line single-agent.
 
The Company believes that its parenteral formulations of curcumin can be compared with standard of care when used in combination with front line standard chemotherapy in a number of diseases. Given the aging of the population with annual incremental growth in the number of prospective patients in chronic and acute disease categories, the Company believes a potentially effective and potentially minimally toxic agent like curcumin could gain wide acceptance and usage.

Product Overview
 
Background on Curcumin

 
Curcumin has been used primarily in its natural state in tumeric as an ingredient in foods for hundreds of years in India and the Asian subcontinent where it grows naturally. It also has a history of use as a medicinal extract.(3)
 
Curcumin’s history includes oral human use for a variety of benign and malignant diseases. A body of published research explaining curcumin’s mechanisms of action at the cellular level supports its potential application in humans. (6), (1), (2), (7)   In addition, there have been parenteral curcumin toxicology studies in animals published by other researchers which support a finding of curcumin’s safety. (7)
 
One problem that has limited the therapeutic potential of curcumin is that orally delivered curcumin has limited bioavailability. Further, curcumin is broken down when it passes through in the intestinal tract and when it reaches the liver. Studies of oral curcumin by other researchers have attributed to its low efficacy to low levels of active drug reaching the bloodstream. Yet, uncontrolled trials conducted by third parties have shown that oral curcumin, nonetheless, appears to have some detectable clinical activity in a variety of diseases.
 
To address this problem, SignPath intends to develop parenteral formulations (administration that bypasses the gastrointestinal system) in the form of a liposomal version and a nanosized version. Predicated upon the dosage schedules, needs, and population demographics of different disease entities, the Company believes these curcumin-based treatments will be applicable for a broad spectrum of proliferative malignant diseases. In addition, curcumin is believed to work as a chemopreventive agent in cancers of the colon, stomach, and skin based upon its established antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. (1)
 
Brief Technology Background:  Signal Transduction and Cellular Pathways
 
Cells carry out many of their functions by responding to signals transmitted from the external environment. The surface of a cell has receptor proteins that span or cross the cell surface and bind to their targets with high specificity. When an external molecule binds to a surface receptor, it provides the signal to activate (turn on or turn off) critical cell processes. Recent scientific breakthroughs have enabled these surface receptors and the internal pathways they control to become targets for drug development. Several other companies have used these mechanisms to develop products that have reached the market or advanced to late stage clinical trials.
 
Once a cell signaling pathway is activated, a series of reactions (or cascade) occurs within the cell. Each step activates a specific protein in the pathway, and its active products initiate the activation of the next protein in the process. Some of the cellular processes that are controlled in this manner include inflammatory pathways, cell proliferation, cell survival, and cell death (apoptosis). Elevated levels of activated inflammatory survival pathways.

have been correlated with many types of tumors, (8)  and can also be markers for more severe disease and/or poor prognosis. Some pathways are associated with resistance to chemotherapy, defined as tumor cell survival in the presence of conventional toxic chemotherapy. These are some of the tumor cell characteristics that can make cancer a fatal disease.
 
SignPath is developing curcumin, a compound for which there are early indicators that it may be a compound that inhibits several cell survival pathways via blockade of specific signaling proteins called activating kinases. Two established pathway targets are known as NFκB and AKT. (1)   The net effect when these pathways are inactivated is to turn off signals leading to cell metabolism, protein synthesis, proliferation and activate signals leading to cell death via activation of downstream processes. These changes also alter other pathways, including STAT3, survivin, and pathways conferring resistance to chemotherapy.
 
SignPath believes inhibition of these critical intracellular survival pathways are good targets for drug development, and our management believes that curcumin is an attractive lead compound for further development due to its inhibition of major survival pathways and collateral effects of activating death pathways. It also prohibits inflammation and release of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-ά (alpha), inflammatory cells such as macrophages which are required for the development and spread of tumors. Recently it has been shown that activation of NFκB (an intracellular protein) is a critical component in cellular responses to TOLL-receptor ligands (receptors that activate immune cell responses) and Interleukin-1 (a cytokine). The latter are implicated in the innate immune response promoting murine hepatocellular and colon carcinoma. (2)  One of the established effects of curcumin is to inhibit NFκB and subsequent TOLL-receptor ligand activity. Scientific studies have suggested that a drug that can inhibit these activated survival and inflammatory pathways should be able to stop the growth of cancer cells. Blocking inhibitors of death pathways are believed to shorten the cell’s ability to survive. (8)
 
Liposome Encapsulation and Nanocurcumin
 
SignPath is developing liposomal and nanosized versions of curcumin. The liposomal version is a lipid-protein coating that encases the molecule. This helps prevent the drug from being removed from the bloodstream by the liver, increases solubility in serum, and increases the drug’s circulation time allowing more drug to reach tumor sites. Micellar aggregates or nanoformulations of curcumin with unique polymeric chemical coatings will be synthesized and contain similar solubility characteristics to liposomal formulations; however, we believe these nano-formulations may have discrete clinical applications compared to the liposomal formulation. For these reasons, SignPath intends to develop both formulations.
 
Nanocurc, a polymeric parenteral formulation of nanocurcumin, in human pancreatic cancer xenografts in nude mice has been found by the Company to have anti-cancer effects which are synergistic when co-administered with Gemcitabine. This formulation has activity against breast cancer and passes the blood brain barrier. Non-clinical and pre-clinical studies of tumor targeted PLGA curcumin have been completed at the University of Texas (see below) and published.

Mechanism of Action
 
Curcumin’s molecular mechanisms of action involve direct and indirect inhibition or activation of multiple biochemical targets in tumor cells. These include genes, enzymes, proteins, and, particularly, many components of up-regulated cell survival and down-regulated cell death pathways. These activities result in decreased inflammatory and/or oxidative damage, decreased migration, proliferation and invasion of tumor cells, decreased radio- and chemoresistance, and increased chemosensitivity to cytotoxic drugs. While not incorporated in SignPath’s initial efforts, the Company may also develop curcumin applications to target malaria or other parasitic diseases. These observations suggest the potential to treat several diseases with large potential markets if the Company can develop an economically feasible product.
 
Cancer:  Only 1% of an oral dose of curcumin is absorbed; yet in spite of this extreme limitation, there are publications that suggest anti-cancer activity of orally administered curcumin. (2)   Additional evidence for anticancer activity is suggested from  in vitro   and animal experiments. Its anticancer effects include promoting apoptosis (cell death pathways) and down regulation of major pro-survival factors, including AKT, NFκB, STAT-3, and Survivin signaling pathways. We, therefore, believe that commercial application of parenteral curcumin formulations for cancers which depend upon NFκB (such as multiple myeloma and pancreatic cancer) represent prime candidates for Phase II trials assuming successful preclinical and Phase I trials. Many other cancers such as brain tumors are also dependent upon AKT, NFκB, and survival pathways which may render them additional potential clinical targets. (3)

Government Regulation
 
Regulation by governmental authorities in the United States and other countries is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceuticals, and in our ongoing research and development activities. All of our products will require regulatory approval by governmental agencies prior to commercialization. In particular, pharmaceutical drugs are subject to rigorous preclinical testing and clinical trials and other pre-marketing approval requirements by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and regulatory authorities in other countries. In the United States, various federal, and in some cases, state statutes and regulations also govern or impact upon the manufacturing, safety, labeling, storage, record-keeping and marketing of pharmaceutical products. The lengthy process of seeking required approvals and the continuing need for compliance with applicable statutes and regulations, require the expenditure of substantial resources.
 
Regulatory approval, when and if obtained for any of our product candidates, may be limited in scope which may significantly limit the indicated uses for which our product candidates may be marketed. Further, approved drugs and manufacturers are subject to ongoing review and discovery of previously unknown problems that may result in restrictions on their manufacture, sale or use or in their withdrawal from the market.

FDA Approval & Developmental Milestones
 
There are three primary phases of FDA clinical trials for an FDA new drug application (NDA) and approval for commercial sale. Before these can begin, non-clinical/pre-clinical laboratory studies are conducted and an Investigational New Drug application (IND) is submitted to the FDA. After FDA approval, the Company may begin Phase I clinical safety and dosage estimation studies, followed by Phase II studies to evaluated clinical efficacy in selected diseases, then Phase III testing to demonstrate statistically significant safety and efficacy.

During the pre-clinical phase (non-clinical and pre-clinical) a compound is studied ex-vivo in a laboratory and in-vivo   in laboratory animals to establish its stability, manufacturing feasibility, bioavailability, absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination. This phase of testing establishes pre-clinical parameters for clinical safety and efficacy. Results of these pre-clinical trials comprise the IND that is submitted to the FDA for review before the drug is tested in humans. Phase I testing is a basic safety study to determine if the drug is safe enough to be tested in humans. During Phase I, the drug can be tested in both healthy human volunteers and/or patients with malignant disease to determine a tolerable dosage regimen that is sufficiently safe to proceed with further testing in a larger group of diseased patients. Testing in disease-free volunteers can supply accurate estimates of safety and tolerability for application in persons with non-cancer indications, while testing in patients with pre-treated cancers can indicate different degrees of tolerance depending upon their past medical history.
 
In Phase II studies, the drug is tested in small number of patients with benign and/or malignant forms of the disease to determine the doses at which the drug has clinical activity and to characterize the drug’s effects on the body. These effects include the drug’s dosage, efficacy, and side effect profiles.
 
Drugs that have a clinical benefit in Phase II trials move forward to additional clinical testing with a larger number of patients in Phase III trials. These trials verify Phase II results in a larger patient sample and must demonstrate statistically significant benefits in the drug’s safety and efficacy. Trial endpoints are designed to show a meaningful clinical effect over a predetermined timeframe. These timeframes depend on the disease being tested and can be in days, weeks, or years of treatment.
 
The drug being tested is typically compared with a placebo or the current standard of treatment to show that the drug is equal to (or an improvement upon) existing treatments. Once those studies have been completed, the new drug application (NDA) is prepared and submitted to the FDA for approval. Under FDA guidelines, the NDA should be answered within 10 months.  At such time, the FDA may inform the Company that drug is approved, the application is approvable pending resolution of certain issues, or may require additional studies to be completed for approval.
 
Other Regulatory Requirements
 
Any products that we manufacture or distribute under FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by the FDA, including record-keeping requirements and reporting of adverse experiences with the products. Drug manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register with the FDA and, where appropriate, state agencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and state agencies for compliance with cGMP regulations which impose procedural and documentation requirements upon us and any third party manufacturers we utilize. Before approving a biologics license application, the FDA will inspect the facilities at which the product is manufactured (including both those of the applicant and any third-party component manufacturers) and will not approve the product unless the manufacturing facilities are in compliance with FDA’s cGMP, which are regulations that govern the manufacture, storage and distribution of a product. Manufacturers of biologics also must comply with FDA’s general biological product standards.

Following approval, the FDA periodically inspects drug and biologic manufacturing facilities to ensure continued compliance with the cGMP regulations. We must ensure that any third-party manufacturers continue to expend time, money and effort in the areas of production, quality control, record keeping and reporting to ensure full compliance with those requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements subjects the manufacturer to possible legal or regulatory action, such as suspension of manufacturing or recall or seizure of product. Adverse experiences with the product must be reported to the FDA and could result in the imposition of marketing restrictions through labeling changes or market removal. Product approvals may be withdrawn if compliance with regulatory requirements is not maintained or if problems concerning safety or efficacy of the product occur following approval.
 
The FDA also closely regulates the marketing and promotion of drugs. A company can make only those claims relating to safety and efficacy that are approved by the FDA. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civil and criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available drugs for uses that are not described in the product's labeling and that differ from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such off-label uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believe that such off-label uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physicians in their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of off-label use.

 
37

 
 
The FDA’s policies may change and additional government regulations may be enacted which could prevent or delay regulatory approval of our product candidates or approval of new indications for our existing products. We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulations that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the United States or abroad.  
 
In addition, the labeling, advertising, promotion, marketing and distribution of a drug or biologic product also must be in compliance with FDA and U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) requirements which include, among others, standards and regulations for off-label promotion, industry sponsored scientific and educational activities, promotional activities involving the internet, and direct-to-consumer advertising. The FDA and FTC have very broad enforcement authority, and failure to abide by these regulations can result in penalties, including the issuance of a warning letter directing the Company to correct deviations from regulatory standards and enforcement actions that can include seizures, injunctions and criminal prosecution.
 
Other Uses of Curcumin
 
There are other potential uses of curcumin in addition to our initial focus on multiple myeloma and pancreatic cancer. Following our clinical trials in these two categories, we will seek to study other cancer candidates which have an AKT or NFkB requirement for survival and proliferation, such as breast and prostate cancers. The unique activity of curcumin also suggests its use with other cancer treatment modalities. For example, it may increase tumor cell susceptibility to standard treatment with radiation or chemotherapy.
 
Because of the protean nature of curcumin’s interaction with different cell components, and based upon data derived from traditional use and non-clinical and pre-clinical laboratory studies, we believe it may have a therapeutic role in numerous non-cancer indications.
 
To expand its use for other cancers, Parkinson’s Disease and parasitic diseases, the Company is developing three different (liposomal, polymeric and slow release PLGA) intravenous nanoparticle size formulations. Proof of efficacy of these formulations against human tumor xenografts in mice was published. During IND pre-clinical toxicity trials in dogs, with liposomal curcumin, a dose-dependant hemolysis was observed, indicating specific dose/schedules of administrations will be required for trials in humans.
 
A research grant of approximately $80,000 from the Michael J. Fox Parkinson’s Disease Foundation to measure parenteral liposomal curcumin passage across the blood brain barrier and focal distributions in mice/rat brains in collaboration with D. S. Chiou at the University of Western Ontario, Canada. Data, to date, has revealed intravenous curcumin localized in specific brain regions associated with Parkinson’s Disease and memory processing. The Company has expended approximately $30,000 to manufacture nanocurcumin for this study and is funding animal studies with Dr. Chiou with the remaining funds.
 
To broaden the intellectual property profile of parenteral curcumin, additional clinical uses of curcumin have been incorporated in a CIP (continuation in progress) application. This application has been submitted to the Patent and Trademark Office by MD Anderson and contains claims for additional therapeutic uses of curcumin. There is sufficient published data on curcumin and autoimmune diseases, degenerative diseases of the joints and the nervous system, inflammatory based diseases, aging, diabetes and cerebral malaria to envision addressing these conditions with parenteral curcumin when final dosage and safety data from cancer trials in cancer patients becomes available.
 
Clinical Trials
 
The Company expects to submit an IND to begin human clinical trials upon completion of the preclinical work, which is expected to be in the third quarter of 2010. The Company expects to initiate Phase I clinical trials within three months of regulatory clearance. Clinical trials for liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin will use curcumin formulations made under GMP conditions by contract manufacturers. As described below, the Company has entered into agreements with manufacturers of curcumin, liposomal curcumin, and polymers for nanocurcumin to produce sufficient quantities to complete all pre-clinical requirements for submission of an IND. Agreements for additional quantities of both formulations for Phase 1 clinical trials will be initiated depending upon human dosage estimates generated in pre-clinical studies. The Company plans to pursue four Phase I liposomal curcumin and nanocurcumin parenteral trials in cancer patients.

 
38

 
 
We have had preliminary discussions regarding participation in Phase I and II clinical trials during direct meetings with responsible physician investigators at three cancer centers. All have had extensive experience with drug trials anticancer drugs and are willing to participate in the proposed clinical studies.
 
These investigators include:
 
 
·
M.D.Anderson Cancer Center, Houston Texas. Dr. R. Kurzrock has already evaluated oral curcumin in over 40 patients with pancreatic cancer.
 
 
·
New York Medical College, Dr. T. Ahmad has had extensive experience as a Phase I, II, and III clinical trial investigator.
 
 
·
At the Algemeine Krankenhaus, in Vienna Austria, Dr. Michael Wolzt would be in charge of Phase I and II clinical trials following initial toxicity data from either New York Medical College (Valhalla, NY) or M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Our CEO inspected these facilities in December 2007, however, no agreements were entered into and management will determine whether to pursue a clinical study of this finding depending on cost and feasibility, when regulatory approval is obtained.
 
Additional Phase I trials in normal volunteers may be initiated if deemed necessary by the FDA, if a non-toxic but therapeutic dose is determined in Phase I cancer studies. These studies are expected to be carried out by Dr. Wolzt in Vienna, Austria and at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland.
 
Tentative sites for these Phase I trials include the following:
 
 
·
We expect that the SP01 (liposomal curcumin) formulation will be tested for pharmacokinetics, safety and dosage estimation in a Phase I trial in three centers:  MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas; Westchester Medical Center, Valhalla, New York; and Medical University of Vienna, Allgemeines Krankenhaus, Vienna, Austria.
 
 
·
We expect that the SP02 (nanocurcumin) formulation will be tested for pharmacokinetics, safety, and dosage estimates in Phase I trials in three centers:  M.D. Anderson Medical Center, Houston, Texas; Westchester Medical Center, Valhalla, New York; and Medical University of Vienna, Allgemeines Krankenhaus, Vienna, Austria.

In both cases above, the Company expects that the trials’ subjects will be cancer patients who have failed standard of care therapy and elected experimental therapy.
 
Provided that the safety results of Phase I trials are satisfactory and the FDA approves the Phase II studies, the Company anticipates launching the following Phase II trials:
 
 
·
Liposomal curcumin:  Intravenous administration to pancreatic cancer patients who fail standard therapy.
 
 
·
Liposome curcumin: Intravenous administration to multiple myeloma cancer patients who fail standard therapy.
 
 
·
Nanocurcumin:  Intravenous administration to pancreatic cancer patients who fail standard therapy.
 
 
·
Nanocurcumin:  Intravenous administration to multiple myeloma patients who fail standard therapy.

Market Analysis
 
The anticipated markets for therapeutic curcumin include populations with unmet medical needs, or as combinations with established drugs to enhance their activity in the presence of drug resistance. The preclinical studies of curcumin in cancer suggest its potential application as a parenteral drug for both prophylaxis and therapy.
 
Given the aging of the population with an annual increment in the number of prospective patients in chronic disease categories, the Company believes a potentially effective and presumably minimally toxic agent like oral or parenteral curcumin could gain wide acceptance and usage.
 
As stated earlier, the Company is aware of pre-clinical data from other research suggesting that parenteral curcumin may have anti-cancer activity. (8)  The new cases of cancer in the United States in 2009 were estimated at approximately 1,400,000 per year, according to the American Cancer Society, Inc. Surveillance Research. This is a large market with substantial room for improvement over current therapies.
 
Curcumin may also prove to be effective as prevention for high-risk individuals and as a therapeutic for established disease when used alone or in combination with other agents. As an initial approach we anticipate treating diseases with unmet needs. These include multiple myeloma and pancreatic cancer. While there are current clinical trials with oral preparation of curcumin, we currently know of no competitors with publicly known plans to develop parenteral forms of curcumin. Management believes that the Company is positioned to leverage its rights to its licensed intellectual property of these parenteral products in the United States and worldwide.
 
Potential Commercialization of Liposomal Curcumin and Nanocurcumin
 
Because the liposomal formulation has been demonstrated by other researchers to be effective in animal studies, (8) we anticipate that this modification of curcumin could be more effective than the natural extract from turmeric when administered parenterally. Assuming we obtain positive results from our preclinical trials, clinical trials and ultimately receive FDA approval, the Company believes that these formulations of curcumin may be accepted by physicians for treating cancer and other diseases that fit within the efficacy profile established by the Company.
 
Modification of water-insoluble drugs such as curcumin as liposomes or nanoparticles is a novel formulation process. We cannot predict at this time the biological activity of a liposomal curcumin product compared to the nanocurcumin formulation due to possible differences in effectiveness, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. There may be specific pharmacological advantages for either formulation which could confer clinical and/or commercial value. The final cost of drug production will depend upon usage and economies of scale; however, we intend to adopt a strategy, if possible, to result in our products having a cost competitive with current medications for the intended applications.
 
The Company also expects to evaluate conducting potential additional development initiatives based on its licensed curcumin formulation to treat patients with degenerative, arthritic and parasitic diseases, such as malaria, depending upon the results of the Phase 1 trials, clinical imperatives, and financial resources to carry them out.
 
Clinical application of parenteral administration of liposomal curcumin or nanosized curcumin may induce varied responses in the same disease or in different disease states. In addition, we anticipate different development and manufacturing costs, and ultimately different commercial remuneration in the different applications. These variations are attributed to demographic differences in applications such as pancreatic cancer and multiple myeloma.

The Company entered into a Liposomal Formulation Manufacturing Agreement with Polymun Scientific Immunbiologische Forschung GmbH (“Polymun”), Vienna, Austria, dated as of September 6, 2007, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Company’s SEC filings. Pursuant to this agreement, Polymun will apply their GLP process and experience to encapsulate pure synthetic curcumin provided by the Company with a layer of lipid particles (making a liposome formulation which can be injected intravenously). After testing for size, and stability, Polymun will deliver the liposomal curcumin to the MD Anderson Cancer Center for intravenous animal toxicity testing. During this developmental process they have invented and developed a special assay to simultaneously quantify the content of lipids and curcumin in all batches they prepare. Polymun completed scaled-up GMP manufacture of the lipocurc formulation. The Company’s obligation to Polymun totaled €280,000 through the first two development stages and thereafter a €130,000 per production fee. Our agreement with Polymun expired on December 31, 2009 although the parties are continuing work under the terms of the agreement.
 
On January 30, 2008, the Company contracted with Brookwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc., n/k/a Surmodics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Surmodics”) an Alabama based polymer manufacturer, to synthesize a quantity of polymer for nanocurcumin development. The polymer is designed to surround the pure curcumin to render it soluble and ready for intravenous administration in mice, rats, and dogs which constitutes the "nanocurcumin formulation". The total cost for producing sufficient polymer for animal studies is $81,000. Surmodics will provide quantities of output to the Company’s designated manufacturer in order to fulfill final product requirements.
 
Both Polymun and Surmodics are agreeable to proceed with this second phase of development to produce clinical GMP grade curcumin. The Company will decide between the two companies based upon their capacity and experience. Since liposomal curcumin is an advanced stage of development (pre-clinical) and nearing completion of FDA requirements, the Company’s interest is to proceed with that product in its Phase 1 clinical studies. The nanocurcumin to be developed by The Johns Hopkins University is expected to take 8 to 12 months before it can be submitted for trials. Ultimately, the final GMP product will be shipped to Dr. Anirban Maitra at The Johns Hopkins University, who will complete the pre-clinical aspects of the IND. Additional batches will be sent to J.A.Smith at MD Anderson for GLP production.
 
Raw Materials; Supplies
 
Liposomal curcumin was manufactured  for the Company by Polymun, Inc., of Vienna, Austria under the agreement described in the prior section. It was obtained initially from a U.S. chemical supplier, Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals (“SAFC”) and then from Sabinsa Inc., New Jersey. The Company obtained one batch of 200 grams of GMP manufactured liposomal curcumin under an agreement dated June 30, 2007 with SAFC, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Company’s SEC filings. The total cost to the Company was $98,350 for scaled-up manufacture of 98.2% pure curcumin under GMP for human use is in process at Sabinsa/Sami Labs, Bangalore, India. FDA and EMEA (European Medicines Agency) compliance and validations audits relating to the curcumin manufacturing facility in India was performed by Topaz Technology, Inc. of Bryn Mawr, PA under an agreement with the Company dated June 30, 2009, at a total cost of $24,500 which has been paid. Analysis of the 0.1% residue is being done at Chimic Labs, Massachusetts. Nanocurcumin is manufactured for the Company by either SAFC or Sabinsa. The Company’s purchases from Sabinsa were made pursuant to purchase orders without a contract. There are very stringent new regulations concerning GMP by the EMEA and the FDA. The polymer used for nanocurcumin development is manufactured by Surmodics under the above-described agreement.
 
At UTMDCC, GLP pharmacokinetic and toxicity studies of single and multi-dose intravenous liposomal curcumin in mice and rats were without evidence of toxicity at a maximal injectible volume. Dog pharmacokinetics and single ascending dose toxicity studies identified reversible hemolysis at a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and irreversible hemolysis at a significantly higher dose limiting level. In vitro studies with dog and human RBCs corroborated these observations three anmexin V biomarker (a biochemical feature used to measure the progress of diseases or the effects of treatment).   Multidose canine studies are planned at MTD dosages based upon these studies.
 
SignPath is collaborating with Gibralter Labs, Surmodic Pharma, Johns Hopkins University and the NCI Nanocharacterization Laboratory for corroborative non-clinical and pre-clinical studies of polymeric nanocurcumin. GMP production is being explored at a facility in Calcutta, India.
 
Intellectual Property
 
The Company has three pending patent applications for lipocurc, nanocurc and depocurc. The U.S. Patent Office has returned office action on all three applications. A fourth provisional patent submission concerning curcumin infusions was submitted in November 2009, a six-month extension request for a fifth provisional patent applications concerning a new medical application was submitted in or about March 2010.

Agreement With The Johns Hopkins University
 
In October, 2007, SignPath and The Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”) entered into an exclusive license agreement under a provisional patent application (Serial No. 60,866/516) entitled “Biocompatible ‘Smart’ Nanogels as carriers for Hydrophobic drugs”. This application was submitted on November 20, 2006 by JHU for a nano-sized curcumin formulation called nano curcumin. Pursuant to the JHU License Agreement, SignPath has an exclusive worldwide license to manufacture, use, import and sell inventions and discoveries covered by the pending patent and associated technologies. SignPath may sublicense its rights under the JHU License Agreement, subject to terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. The JHU License Agreement shall continue until its expiration of the last to expire patent in each country, or if no patents issue, then for 20 years from the commencement of the agreement. The agreement is terminable for a breach which is not cured within 30 days after receipt of notice or by SignPath upon 90 days’ prior written notice. Title to all inventions and discoveries made by each party resulting from their research shall belong to each respective party with joint ownership of inventions and discoveries which are made jointly.
 
Under the terms of the JHU License Agreement, SignPath has agreed to exercise its best efforts file an IND with the FDA and to exercise reasonable efforts to develop and introduce the licensed products and services into the commercial market. In addition, the Company entered into a sponsored research agreement (the “SRA”) with Dr. Anirban Maitra of JHU pursuant to which we will provide $100,000 of funding for the continuation of non-clinical and pre-clinical studies of the nanocurcumin compound will pay JHU indirect costs of $64,000. The SRA was entered into by the Company on October 2, 2007. Payment of the $100,000 fee under the SRA was due in three equal installments beginning 30 days after execution of the agreement and at 4 month intervals from development of an IND for nanocurcumin all of which has been paid as of December 31, 2009. The term of the SRA was one year ending on September 18, 2008 which was not extended. Subject to current research activity, new opportunities and the availability of funds, Dr. Maitra’s contract may be renewed for additional programs. All inventions which would be filed as a continuation patent under JHU’s patent application shall be subject to the JHU License Agreement.
 
SignPath was obligated under the JHU License Agreement to pay $50,000 in license fees which have been paid, plus minimum annual royalties increasing from $10,000 in the first two years to $25,000 in the third and fourth years and $30,000 in the fifth year. An aggregate of approximately $241,000 has been paid under this license agreement as of June 30, 2010.

2009 Employee Stock Incentive Plan
 
The Company’s 2009 Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Option Plan”) was adapted by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 9, 2009 in order to motivate participants by means of stock options and restricted stock to achieve the Company’s long-term performance goals and enable our employees, officers, directors and consultants to participate in our long term growth and financial success. The 2009 Plan, which is administered by our Board of Directors, authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 500,000 shares of our common stock, which may be authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. Employee options shall be deemed Incentive Stock Options (as defined in the 2009 Option Plan) to the maximum extent permitted by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code including a five-year limit on exercise for 10% or greater stockholders with any excess grant to the above individuals over the limits set by Section 422 being Non-Qualified Stock Options as defined in the 2009 Option Plan. Both the Incentive Stock Options or any Non-Qualified Stock Options must be granted at an exercise price of not less than the fair market value of shares of common stock at the time the option is granted and Incentive Stock Options granted to 10% or greater stockholders must be granted at an exercise price of not less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. If any award under the 2009 Plan terminates, expires unexercised, or is cancelled, the shares of common stock that would otherwise have been issuable pursuant thereto will be available for issuance pursuant to the grant of new awards. The 2009 Plan will terminate on February 9, 2019.

Additional Disclosures
 
Payments Made in Connection with the Financing
 
Since the registration statement (No. 333-158474) of which this prospectus forms a part was not timely filed or declared effective within 120 days following the April 7, 2009 Initial Filing Date for the 2008 Private Placement, we must pay to each selling stockholder an amount equal to 2% of the dollar amount invested ($1,430,210), with respect to shares being registered for resale herein (pro-rated for partial months) for a maximum of eight months beyond the Scheduled Filing Date and/or 120 days from the Initial Filing Date. Such penalty may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock solely at the discretion of the Company. Thus, since the registration statement was not filed by January 27, 2009, the total possible payments we would have to make pursuant to these liquidated damages to selling shareholders under this prospectus is 69 days or an aggregate of $65,790 (4.6%) of the dollar amount invested. In addition, each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued in connection with the Financings accrues an annual dividend of 6.5%, or $65 per share payable annually in cash or shares of Common Stock at the option of the Company, unless earlier converted or redeemed.
 
Since this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part was not timely filed or declared effective within 120 days following the January 27, 2010 Initial Filing Date for the 2009 Private Placement, we must pay to each selling stockholder an amount equal to 2% of the dollar amount invested ($475,000), with respect to shares being registered for resale herein (pro-rated for partial months) for a maximum of eight months beyond the Scheduled Filing Date and/or 120 days from the Initial Filing Date. Such penalty may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock solely at the discretion of the Company. Thus, since the registration statement was not filed by January 27, 2010, the total possible payments we would have to make pursuant to these liquidated damages to selling shareholders under this prospectus is eight (8) months or an aggregate of $76,000 (16%) of the dollar amount invested. In addition, each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued in connection with the Financings accrues an annual dividend of 6.5%, or $65 per share payable annually in cash or shares of Common Stock at the option of the Company, unless earlier converted or redeemed.
 
The amount of dividends payable in shares of Common Stock to each selling stockholder listed in the Selling Stockholder table of this prospectus is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of Series A Preferred Stock held by such selling stockholder by 6.5% and divided by an assumed conversion price of $.85 per share. Any amount of fractional shares of common stock to be received by each selling stockholder upon payment of dividends has been rounded up to the nearest whole number. This would determine the number of shares of common stock issuable in full payment of dividends. Consequently, the dollar value of the dividend payments that the Company may be required to make in the first year in connection with the shares of Common Stock issuable in the 2008 Private Placement is $92,964 consisting of 109,369 shares of Common Stock and in the 2009 Private Placement is $30,875 consisting of 36,324 shares of Common Stock.
 
Except as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, no payments have been made or may be required to be made in the future in connection with the transaction to any selling stockholder, any affiliate of a selling stockholder, or any person with whom any selling stockholder has a contractual relationship regarding the transaction (including any interest payments, liquidated damages, payments made to "finders" or "placement agents," and any other payments or potential payments).

The net proceeds we received from the sale of preferred stock between November 2008 and September 6, 2010 (the “Preferred Stock Offering”) solely from the stockholders registered hereby were $1,673,697. From the gross proceeds of $2,030,859, Meyers Associates LP, a FINRA member firm participating in the private placement, received cash compensation of $203,086, plus reimbursement for expenses in the amount of $67,076.
 
Total possible payments to all selling stockholders and any of their affiliates in the first year following the Preferred Stock Offering, are $265,629 consisting of $123,839 of dividend payments and $141,790 of liquidated damages. Total possible payments under agreements entered into in connection with the sale of the preferred stock to all selling stockholders and any of their affiliates in the year following November 30, 2008, consist of the following:
 
1. Since the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, was not timely filed by January 27, 2009, we must pay to each selling stockholder an amount equal to 2% per month of the dollar amount invested (pro-rated for partial months) for 69 days if the registration statement is not declared effective within 120 days following the April 7, 2009, Initial Filing Date) for a maximum of eight months beyond the April 7, 2009 Initial Filing Date. Such penalty may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock solely at the discretion of the Company. Thus, since the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part was not filed by January 27, 2009 or declared effective witin 120 days of January 27, 2010, the total possible payments we would have to make pursuant to these liquidated damages to selling stockholders, unless waived, would be an aggregate of $76,000.

2. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders for any losses they may incur as a result of any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by us in any of the transaction or disclosure documents with respect to the Preferred Stock Offering, including this registration statement, or as a result of any action instituted against a selling stockholder with respect to the Preferred Stock Offering, unless such action is based upon a breach of such selling stockholder's obligations or any violations by the selling stockholder of state or federal securities laws or fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance. We do not anticipate having to pay any amounts pursuant to this provision, but we are unable to estimate at this time if any such payments will be payable, or, if payable, the amount of such payments.
 
Total Possible Profit to the Selling Stockholders from Other Securities Held by the Selling Stockholders
 
None. The Conversion Rate initially will be 1,177 shares of common stock ($.85 per share) for each Share of Preferred Stock. However, if the Company issues or sells any shares of its common stock (or options, warrants or convertible securities, convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted to the price per share of common stock sold in such subsequent common stock issuance.

Except as set forth herein, we have no relationships or arrangements with the selling stockholders, any affiliates of the selling stockholders, or any person with whom any of the selling stockholders has a contractual relationship regarding the transaction.
 
The Company and Meyers Associates entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the “Agency”) as of May 28, 2008. Meyers was appointed the exclusive placement agent in connection with the Preferred Stock Offering.

The parties indemnified each other against claims made concerning the Offering. The Agreement terminated upon completion of the Offering.
 
Meyers Associates was granted a five-year right of first refusal for all future public offerings or private financings under the Agency. Meyers will also receive a warrant solicitation fee equal to 10% of total cash proceeds received from the exercise of warrants for whom the Placement Agent was designated as the soliciting broker.

Each investor in the Preferred Stock Offering entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Company, a form of which has been filed as Exhibit 4.5 to the Registration Statement. The terms of the securities are set forth herein under the heading “Description of Securities.”
 
Method for Determining the Number of Shares Being Registered Hereunder
 
We are registering the number of: (i) shares of our common stock which are issuable upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, and (ii) the shares of our common stock issuable on the exercise of warrants issued to the selling stockholders, each purchased in the Preferred Stock Offering, as described herein. The only shares being registered are those of retail customers. No shares are being requested for any officer, director or affiliate of the Company.
 
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
 
The Company’s authorized capitalization consists of: (i) 45,000,000 authorized shares of the Company’s common stock $.001 par value, of which 11,740,000 shares are currently outstanding; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.10 par value, of which 2,411.875 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are currently  issued and outstanding, and (iii) 500,000 shares have been reserved for issuance upon exercise of options which may be granted to the founders of the Company, certain officers, advisors and consultants of the Company pursuant to the 2009 Option Plan, of which 100,000 options have been granted.
 
Common Stock
 
Each share of common stock entitles its holder to one non-cumulative vote per share and, subject to the preferential rights of the preferred stockholders, if any, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all the directors if they choose to do so, and in such event the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect a single director. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of Directors may, from time to time, declare out of Company funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive pro rata all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders after the satisfaction of the liquidation preference of the preferred stockholders, if any. None of the stockholders have any pre-emptive rights to subscribe for or purchase any stock, warrants or other securities of the Company. The common stock is not convertible or redeemable. Neither the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation nor its By-Laws provide for pre-emptive rights.
 
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
 
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) has been authorized by resolutions adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights (“Certificate of Designation”), filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on November 26, 2008, which contains the designations, rights, powers, preferences, qualifications and limitations of the Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Designation is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Registration Statement. The shares of Preferred Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

On November 28, 2008, the Company completed the 2008 Private Placement of an aggregate of approximately 1451.88 Units of the Company’s securities, representing $1,451,876 principal amount of 6.5% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) at $1,000 per Unit. Between February 19, 2009 and February 11, 2010, the Company completed the 2009 Private Placement of an aggregate of 835 Units, representing $835,000 principal amount of Preferred Stock. Between May 21, 2010 and September 6, 2010, the Company had the initial closing of the 2010 Private Placement of 125 Units, representing $125,000 principal amount of Preferred Stock. This is the first series of preferred Stock issued by the Company. Each Unit consisted of:  $1,000 face value of one share of Preferred Stock, convertible at $.85 per share into 1,177 shares of common stock, with each share of Preferred Stock accruing an annual dividend of 6.5% or $65 per share payable annually in cash or shares of common stock at the option of the Company, unless earlier converted or redeemed. Warrants included in the Units are exercisable for five years from the effective date of the registration statement at an exercise price of $1.27, payable in cash, unless the Company fails to keep the registration statement effective to purchase 1,177 shares of common stock. A total of 2,411.875 shares of Preferred Stock were purchased in the offerings, which are convertible into an aggregate of approximately 2,838,924 shares of common stock. Of this amount, an aggregate of 2,326,974 shares have been registered for resale by 33 retail investors, which amount excludes 511,950 shares of common Stock issuable upon converson of Preferred Stock sold to the Placement Agent and its affiliates.
 
Rank. The Preferred Stock ranks(i) senior to the common stock and any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock either specifically ranking by its terms junior to the Preferred Stock or not specifically ranking by its terms senior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock, (ii) on parity with any class or series of the Company’s capital stock specifically ranking by its terms on parity with the Preferred Stock, and (iii) junior to any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Preferred Stock, in each case, as to payment of dividends or as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary. The approval of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock is required in order for the Company to issue any capital stock with rights on parity with or senior to the Preferred Stock.
 
Dividends. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive annual cumulative per share dividends of 6.5% of the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock, out of funds legally available, prior to any payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock or any other class of stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock. Such dividends are payable in cash or shares of common stock, at the option of the Company, semiannually on the last business day of February and August of each year (each a “Dividend Payment Date”), commencing in February 2009 with respect to the period from issuance through such date. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to share ratably with the holders of the common stock in any dividend declared on the common stock.
 
Dividends on the Preferred Stock will accrue whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not such dividends are declared. Dividends accumulate to the extent they are not paid on the Dividend Payment Date to which they relate. Accumulated unpaid dividends will not bear interest. According to Delaware law, the Company may declare and pay dividends or make other distributions on its capital stock only out of legally-available funds. In addition, no dividends or distributions may be declared, paid or made if the Company is or would be rendered insolvent by virtue of such dividend or distribution.
 
The Company may not (i) pay any dividends in respect of any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), other than dividends payable in the form of additional shares of the same junior stock as that on which such dividend is declared, or (ii) redeem any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), unless and until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock have been, or contemporaneously are, declared and paid in full.
 
Conversion. At the election of the holder thereof, each share of Preferred Stock will be convertible into common stock, at any time after issuance, at the Conversion Rate, as it may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the Certificate of Designation. The Preferred Stock will not convert automatically into Common Stock upon completion of this offering and only the underlying Common Stock issuable upon conversion is registered for the resale under this prospectus. The Conversion Rate initially will be 1,177 shares of common stock ($.85 per share) for each Share of Preferred Stock. If the Company issues or sells any shares of its common stock (or options, warrants or convertible securities, convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock) hereinafter, a “Subsequent common stock Issuance”), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted so that the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of each share of preferred stock shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $1,000 by the price per share of common stock (or the conversion price per share in the case of a sale of options, warrants or convertible securities) sold in such Subsequent common stock Issuance.
 
The Conversion Price is also subject to adjustment from time to time in the event of (i) the issuance of common stock as a dividend or distribution on any class of the Company’s capital stock; or (ii) the combination, subdivision or reclassification of the common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion. Payment of accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon conversion to the extent of legally-available funds.

 
58

 
 
The shares of Preferred Stock may also be converted into common stock at the Conversion Rate at the Company’s option following the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, if the Company’s common stock trades above 200% of the Conversion Rate per share for a period of 20 consecutive trading days.
 
Voting Rights. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, voting as a class, shall be required to authorize, effect or validate (i) any change in the rights, privileges or preferences of the Preferred Stock that would adversely affect the Preferred Stock, or (ii) the authorization, creation, issuance or increase in the authorized or issued amount of any class or series of stock ranking on parity with or superior to the Preferred Stock with respect to the declaration and payment of dividends or distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our Company. In addition, the holders of Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote, together with holders of common stock as single class, on all matters upon which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote pursuant to applicable Delaware law or the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. The Preferred Stock shall vote on an “as converted basis” with each holder of Preferred Stock having one vote for each Conversion Share underlying such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock.
 
Liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company (whether capital or surplus), or the proceeds thereof, may be made or set apart for the holders common stock or any stock ranking junior to Preferred Stock, the holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders, a liquidating distribution of $1,000 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. If, upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company are insufficient to make the full payment of $1,000 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock and similar payments on any other class of stock ranking on a parity with the Preferred Stock upon liquidation, then the holders of Preferred Stock and such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of the Company’s assets in proportion to the full respective distributable amounts to which they are entitled. Certain events, including a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation or sale or conveyance of all or substantially all the property and assets of the Company will be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company for purposes of the foregoing.
 
Derivative Liability. On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted new guidance which determines whether an instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. As a result, the Company’s preferred stock and some of the Company’s outstanding warrants containing exercise price reset provisions are classified as derivative liabilities. The fair value of the derivative liability was calculated using a lattice model that values the compound embedded derivatives based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. This model is based on future projections of the various potential outcomes. The embedded derivatives that were analyzed and incorporated into the model included the conversion feature with the full ratchet reset, and the redemption options. The Company determined the fair value of the preferred stock to be $1,796,759 and $1,642,409 and the fair value of the warrants to be $1,230,296 and $1,182,194 at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The change in fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 of $(137,560) and (115,580), respectively, is recorded as a derivative loss in the Statements of Operations.
 
Miscellaneous. The Company is not subject to any mandatory redemption or sinking fund provision with respect to the Preferred Stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock are not entitled to preemptive rights to subscribe for or to purchase any shares or securities of any class which may at any time be issued, sold or offered for sale by the Company. Shares of Preferred Stock redeemed or otherwise reacquired by the Company shall be retired and shall be unavailable for subsequent issuance as any class of the Company’s preferred stock.

Warrants
 
Each Unit includes one detachable, transferable Warrant to purchase in aggregate 1,177 shares of the Company’s common stock (equivalent to 100% warrant coverage). Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,838,924 shares of common stock were sold in the Private Placement. Of this amount, an aggregate of 2,326,974 shares have been registered for resale by 33 retail investors. The Warrants are exercisable in whole or in part during the five-year period from the effective date of the registration statement at a per share exercise price of $1.27 payable in cash, except that cashless exercise shall apply if the Company fails to comply with its registration obligation. In the event of any adjustment to the Conversion Rate of the Preferred Stock as a result of a Subsequent common stock Issuance as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted to 150% of the price paid for the shares of common stock (or equivalent thereof) in such subsequent issuance respectively. The Warrants may be redeemed in whole or in part by the Company, upon 30 days’ written notice, at price of $.01 share, provided the average closing bid price of the common stock exceeds $1.70 per share for the Warrants for a period of 20 consecutive trading days ending within 15 days prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is given and the registration statement for underlying shares is effective. Additionally, the Warrants contain provisions that protect holders against dilution by adjustment of the exercise price in certain events, such as stock dividends, stock splits and other similar events
 
Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent
 
The transfer agent for our common stock and warrant agent for our Warrants will be Island Stock Transfer.
 
Certain Market Information
 
We intend to obtain a listing for our common stock on the OTCBB. There has been limited trading, to date, of our common stock. An OTCBB listing does not guarantee that an active trading market for our securities will develop. You will likely not be able to sell your securities if an active trading market for our securities does not develop. Further, we can give no assurance that such a market could be sustained if a trading market for our securities were to develop, nor that our securities offered hereby could be resold at their original offering price or at any other price. Any market for our securities that may develop will very likely be a limited one and, in all likelihood, be highly volatile. In any event, if our securities traded at a low price, many brokerage firms may choose not to engage in market making activities or effect transactions in our securities. Accordingly, purchasers of our securities may have difficulties in reselling them and many banks may not grant loans using our securities as collateral.
 
Federal regulations governing “penny stocks” could have a detrimental effect on holders of our securities. Our securities are subject to the SEC rules that impose special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers that sell such securities to parties other than established customers or accredited investors. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of purchasers of our securities to buy or sell in any market that may develop. In addition, the SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stocks.” Because our securities currently constitute a “penny stock” within the meaning of these rules, the rules would apply to us and our securities. The rules may further affect the ability of owners of our securities to sell their securities in any market that may develop for them.
 
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
Prior to the offering made by this prospectus, there has been no market for our common stock, and we cannot assure you that a trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained after this offering. Future sales of substantial numbers of shares of our common stock, including shares issued upon exercise of options, in the public market after this offering, or the anticipation of those sales, could adversely affect market prices of our common stock prevailing from time to time and could impair our ability to raise capital through sales of our equity securities.
 
Upon completion of this offering, we will have issued and outstanding 11,740,000 shares of common stock. Of this amount, 10,000,000 Founders Shares issued on May 12, 2008 and 1,365,000 Bridge Shares issued between August 2007 and April 2008 will all qualify for resale under Rule 144, commencing 90 days from the effective date of this prospectus.
 
The 1,507,500 shares of common stock which are issued and outstanding and registered on this registration statement, as well as the 2,326,974 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of preferred stock and 2,326,974 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants will be freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act unless purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
 
Registered securities may be sold in the public market only if they have been registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act.

Rule 144

In general, under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 for at least six months (including any period of consecutive ownership of preceding non-affiliated holders) would be entitled to sell those shares, subject only to the availability of current public information about us which period will commence 90 days from the date of the prospectus. A non-affiliated person who has beneficially owned restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 for at least one year would be entitled to sell those shares without regard to the provisions of Rule 144.
 
A person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is deemed to be an affiliate of ours and who has beneficially owned restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 for at least six months would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of one percent of the then outstanding shares of our common stock or the average weekly trading volume of our common stock reported during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale. Based on 11,740,000 shares currently outstanding, approximately 117,400 shares may be sold every 90 days. Such sales are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us.
 
Rule 701

In general, under Rule 701 of the Securities Act, most of our employees, consultants or advisors who purchased shares from us in connection with a qualified compensatory stock plan or other written agreement are eligible to resell those shares 90 days after the date of this prospectus in reliance on Rule 144, but without compliance with the holding period or certain other restrictions contained in Rule 144.
 
Registration Rights
 
The Company has agreed to keep this Registration Statement current and effective to permit the sale of the shares offered hereby until the earlier of (i) the date that all of the shares have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, or (ii) the date the holders of the shares receive an opinion of counsel that such shares may be sold under the provisions of Rule 144(b)(i). The currently outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Placement Agent’s Warrants and the shares underlying the Placement Agent Warrants are not entitled to be included in the Registration Statement.
 
If the Registration Statement is not timely filed (which did not occur) or declared effective within 120 days of the initial filing date, of if the Company does not comply with certain of its obligations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will pay investors liquidated damages of 2% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such holder, pro rata for partial months, for a maximum of eight months. Liquidated damages may be paid in cash or common stock, at the Company’s option. See “Selling Stockholders-Additional Disclosures” for a calculation of liquidated damages accrued by the Company for the late filings of this registration statement. There can be no assurance that the Registration Statement will become effective under the Securities Act or that the Registration Statement will remain current and effective. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in preparing, filing and maintaining the effectiveness of this Registration Statement, except for brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and the fees of counsel to the holders.
 
INDEMNIFICATION
 
Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Company has the power to indemnify any of its directors or executive officers who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative as a result of such person being a director or executive officer of the Company or any other corporation, partnership, joint venture or other enterprise at the Company's request. The statutory indemnification covers expenses, judgment, fines and amounts paid in settlement if the director or executive officers acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding if he had not reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 
61

 
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that it is the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
 
Equity Compensation Plan Information
 
See “Executive Compensation—2009 Employee Stock Incentive Plan” described above.
 
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
The shares of our common stock being offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus may be sold by the selling stockholders for their respective own accounts. The selling stockholders include 32 retail accredited investors in our Bridge Financing and Private Placement, and excludes our Placement Agent and its President. We will receive none of the proceeds from this offering. The selling stockholders will pay or assume brokerage commissions or other charges and expenses incurred in the sale of the shares. The distribution of the shares by the selling stockholders is not currently subject to any underwriting agreement. Each selling stockholder must use a broker-dealer which is registered in the state in which the selling stockholder seeks to sell their shares. The Company has been advised that no selling stockbroker is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.
 
The selling stockholders will offer the Shares under this Prospectus on an immediate and continuous basis at a fixed offering price of $1.00 per share. The initial offering price is based, in part, on the last private sale of the Company’s Common Stock at $1.00 per share and comparison by Management of similarly situated companies.
 
The shares may be sold or transferred for value by the selling stockholders, in one or more transactions, in the over-the-counter market in privately negotiated transactions or in a combination of such methods. The selling stockholders may effect such transactions by selling or transferring the shares to or through brokers and/or dealers, and such brokers or dealers may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers/transferees of the shares for whom such brokers or dealers may act as agent. Such broker or dealer compensation may be less than or in excess of customary commissions. However, the maximum compensation to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker dealer will not be greater than eight (8%) percent of the gross proceeds of any sale. The selling stockholders and any broker or dealer that participate in the distribution of the Shares are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act and under the FINRA Corporate Financing Rules.
 
The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the shares:
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

·
privately negotiated transactions;

·
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

·
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

·
a combination of any such methods of sale;

·
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; or

·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 
62

 

Any of the shares of our common stock being offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 commencing 90 days from the effective date rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
 
There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell or transfer any of the shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus.

NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2010, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2009 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2010 is not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund our business needs, including preferred stock with warrants attached and other instruments not indexed to our stock. The Company is required to record its derivative instruments at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, or statements.

NOTE 4 – ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Pursuant to the applicable Codification literature, the Company has concluded it is probable that it will pay $85,738 in liquidated damages pursuant to the registration rights clause in certain of the securities sold in fiscal years 2008 and 2009. The Company was required to file a registration statement by January 27, 2009. The Company failed to do so until April 7, 2009, resulting in liquidated damages of 2% per month of the gross proceeds, which approximated $1.8 million as of that date. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s registration statement covering the securities was declared effective by the SEC. Each holder is entitled to $47.32 per share owned. The Company has resolved to pay the liquidated damages in shares of Common Stock valued at $1.00 per share, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its derivative liability associated with its preferred stock and associated warrants to purchase common stock. On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted new guidance which determines whether an instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. As a result, the Company’s preferred stock and some of the Company’s outstanding warrants that were previously classified in equity were reclassified to liabilities as these warrants contain exercise price reset features and are no longer deemed to be indexed to the Company’s stock. Therefore, on January 1, 2009, 3,572,714 outstanding warrants of the Company containing exercise price reset provisions, classified in equity, were reclassified to derivative liability. These warrants had exercise prices ranging from $0.85 - $1.27 and expire starting in December 2013. As of January 1, 2009, the fair value of these derivative liabilities of $1,676,633 was recognized and resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $43,808. The change in fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 of $(137,560) and $(115,580), respectively, is recorded as a derivative loss in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

The Company classifies the fair value of these warrants under level three. The fair value of the derivative liability was calculated using a lattice model that values the compound embedded derivatives based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. This model is based on future projections of the various potential outcomes. The embedded derivatives that were analyzed and incorporated into the model included the conversion feature with the full ratchet reset, and the redemption options.

The Series A Preferred Derivatives were valued using the following assumptions:
 
·
The Company was 12 months from being publicly traded and the Company/Holder would convert the Preferred Stock based on 200% of the adjusted conversion price;
 
·
The Preferred maturity date used was 5 years following the Company being publicly traded (rolling 6 years from the Valuation Date);
 
·
The stock price of $0.85 was used as the fair value of the common stock based on the previous common stock transaction;
 
·
The projected volatility curve was based on the average of 17 comparable biotech companies historical volatility:
 
·
The Holder would automatically convert at a stock price of $1.70 if the Company was not in default;
 
·
The Holder would convert on a quarterly basis in equal amounts to maturity if in the money; and
 
·
Capital raising events would occur annually, generating reset events based on pricing not greater than 100% of market.

The warrants were valued at issuance and marked to market quarterly for the period 2009 through June 2010. The five-year warrants are options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share and $1.27, subject to adjustments. The following assumptions were used for the valuation of the derivative:
 
·
The stock price of $0.85 was used as the fair value of the common stock based on the previous common stock transaction;
 
·
The projected volatility curve was based on the average of comparable companies as provided in the Preferred assumptions above;
 
·
The Holder would exercise the warrant at maturity if the stock price was above the exercise price;
 
·
The Holder would exercise the warrant at target prices starting at $1.58 for the Investor Warrants and $1.40 for the Placement Agent Warrants, and lowering such target as the warrants approached maturity.
 
·
The Holder would automatically convert all of the shares at a stock price of $1.58 for the Investor Warrants and $1.40 for the Placement Agent Warrants;
 
·
The Holder would convert on a quarterly basis in amounts not to exceed the average quarters trading volume based on historical performance, assuming the volume would increase by 5% each quarter; and
 
·
Capital raising events would occur annually, generating reset events based on pricing not greater than 100% of market for the Placement Agent Warrants and for the Investor Warrants the reset would be 150% of the Preferred.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company determined the fair value of the preferred stock to be $1,796,759 and $1,642,409 and the fair value of the warrants to be $1,230,296 and $1,182,194 at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The following shows the changes in the level three liability measured on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2010:

Balance, January 1, 2010
  $ 2,824,603  
Derivative loss
    202,452  
Balance, June 30, 2010

NOTE 7 – CAPITAL STOCK

On February 11, 2010, the Company issued 25 shares of its $0.10 par value convertible preferred stock for cash at $1,000 per share.

Attached to the 25 units of convertible preferred stock sold was a warrant, giving the owners rights to purchase up to a total of 29,425 (or 1,177 common share per warrant) shares of the Company’s common stock at  strike price of $1.27 per share for a five year period.

As part of this issuance, the Company issued 17,655 warrants to the placement agent in accordance with the placement agency agreements. These warrants give the holder rights to purchase 17,655 shares of the Company’s common stock at strike price of $0.85 per share for a five year period.

The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes model using the following assumptions:  stock price at valuation, $0.85; strike price, $1.27 or $0.85; risk free rate 0.91%; 5 year term; and volatility of 104%. The Company attributed $10,384 of the total $24,997 of Additional Paid-in Capital associated with the transaction to the warrants based on the relative fair value of the warrants.

On May 21, 2010, the Company issued 25 shares of its $0.10 par value convertible preferred stock for cash at $1,000 per share.

Attached to the 25 units of convertible preferred stock sold was a warrant, giving the owners rights to purchase up to a total of 29,425 (or 1,177 common share per warrant) shares of the Company’s common stock at  strike price of $1.27 per share for a five year period.

As part of this issuance, the Company issued 17,655 warrants to the placement agent in accordance with the placement agency agreements. These warrants give the holder rights to purchase 17,655 shares of the Company’s common stock at strike price of $0.85 per share for a five year period.

The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes model using the following assumptions:  stock price at valuation, $0.85; strike price, $1.27 or $0.85; risk free rate 2.16%; 5 year term; and volatility of 106%. The Company attributed $10,526 of the total $24,997 of Additional Paid-in Capital associated with the transaction to the warrants based on the relative fair value of the warrants.

On June 16, 2010 the Company issued 400,000 shares of common stock to officers and consultants of the Company in exchange for services provided. The shares were valued based on the market price of $0.85 per share and the Company recognized $340,000 in consulting expense.

NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Pursuant to the terms of a Letter Agreement dated July 12, 2010, Jack Levine was granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at $0.85 per share upon his joining the Board of Directors. The option vests in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversary dates of the date of grant and is exercisable for ten (10) years from the date of grant. He will be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred, however will not receive any other cash compensation.

In accordance with ASC 855-10 Company management reviewed all material events through the date of this report and there are no additional subsequent events to report.

NOTE 9 – RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On or about August 2, 2010, the Company determined that it had improperly classified its preferred stock and related warrants as permanent equity when, due to certain provisions of the preferred stock and warrants, these instruments should have been classified as derivative liabilities under ASC 815. The error resulted in an overstatement of the Company’s additional paid-in capital account, an understatement of its current liabilities, and an overstatement of the Company’s net income. Under ASC 815, derivative instruments are to be revalued at each reporting period with any change in the fair value of the instruments being recorded in the Company’s income statement. The cumulative effect of the error through June 30, 2010 is a $340,786 reduction to the Company’s net income, a $3,027,055 increase in current liabilities, and a $2,686,269 decrease in additional paid-in capital. Below are tables detailing the effect of the error on the Company’s previously filed financial statements for the year end December 31, 2009 and for all reporting periods from March 31, 2009 through March 31, 2010.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
SignPath Pharma, Inc.
(A Development Stage Enterprise)
Quakertown, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SignPath Pharma, Inc. (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the twelve month periods 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 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 SignPath Pharma, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

SignPath Pharma, Inc, (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on May 15, 2006. The Company was organized to develop proprietary formulations of curcumin (diferuloylmethane), a naturally occurring compound found in the root of the Curcuma longa (turmeric) plant, for applications in malignant diseases. The Company’s product candidates are currently in the pre-clinical testing phase.

Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized sales revenue of $-0- and incurred a net loss of $730,743. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,997,150. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized sales revenue of $-0- and incurred a net loss of $1,695,766. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's planned business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s plan of action over the next twelve months is to continue its operations to develop proprietary formulations of curcumin and raise additional capital financing to sustain operations.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation allowances on accounts receivable, valuation and amortization policies on property and equipment, and valuation allowances on deferred income tax losses. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund our business needs, including preferred stock with warrants attached and other instruments not indexed to our stock. The Company is required to record its derivative instruments at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008 the Company had $295,418 and $181,128 of cash, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities were estimated to approximate their carrying value due to the immediate or relatively short maturity of these instruments.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company adopted the standard issued by the FASB, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, loans payable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, on a non-recurring basis:

The standard issued by the FASB concerning the fair value option for financial assets and liabilities, became effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The standard establishes a fair value option that permits entities to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value options have been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. For the periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, there were no applicable items on which the fair value option was elected.

Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue from the sale if their products in accordance with ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is provided, and collectability is assured.

Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses the costs of the development of its pharmaceutical products during the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $215,937 and $263,886 during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company did receive grant income to help fund its research and development efforts during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 totaling $40,773 and $-0-, respectively.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are recorded in the consolidated financial statements as selling expense. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded advertising and marketing costs of $-0- and $49,175 respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 “Share Based Payments”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share". ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.

Comprehensive Loss
ASC 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the consolidated financial statements. As at December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not record any comprehensive income or loss.

Income Taxes
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts ASC 810 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted ASC 810-, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted ASC 810. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2009, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) issued ASC Topic 470 "Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance". The provisions of ASC 470, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of share-lending arrangements that are classified as equity in the financial statements of the share lender.

ASC 470 is effective for fiscal years that beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and requires retrospective application for all arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009. Share-lending arrangements that have been terminated as a result of counterparty default prior to December 15, 2009, but for which the entity has not reached a final settlement as of December 15, 2009 are within the scope. Effective for share-lending arrangements entered into on or after the beginning of the first reporting period that begins on or after June 15, 2009.

The Company was required to file a registration statement by January 27, 2009. The Company failed to do so until April 7, 2009, resulting in liquidated damages of 2% per month of the gross proceeds, which approximated $1.8 million as of that date. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s registration statement covering the securities was declared effective by the SEC. Each holder is entitled to $47.32 per share owned.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its derivative liability associated with its preferred stock and associated warrants to purchase common stock. On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted new guidance which determines whether an instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. As a result, the Company’s preferred stock and some of the Company’s outstanding warrants that were previously classified in equity were reclassified to liabilities as these warrants contain exercise price reset features and are no longer deemed to be indexed to the Company’s stock. Therefore, on January 1, 2009, 3,572,714 outstanding warrants of the Company containing exercise price reset provisions, classified in equity, were reclassified to derivative liability. These warrants had exercise prices ranging from $0.85 - $1.27 and expire starting in December 2013. As of January 1, 2009, the fair value of these derivative liabilities of $1,676,633 was recognized and resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $43,808. The change in fair value during the year ended December 31, 2009 of $(159,418) is recorded as a derivative loss in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

The Company classifies the fair value of these warrants under level three. The fair value of the derivative liability was calculated using a lattice model that values the compound embedded derivatives based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. This model is based on future projections of the various potential outcomes. The embedded derivatives that were analyzed and incorporated into the model included the conversion feature with the full ratchet reset, and the redemption options.

The Series A Preferred Derivatives were valued using the following assumptions:
 
·
The Company was 12 months from being publicly traded and the Company/Holder would convert the Preferred Stock based on 200% of the adjusted conversion price;
 
·
The Preferred maturity date used was 5 years following the Company being publicly traded (rolling 6 years from the Valuation Date);
 
·
The stock price of $0.85 was used as the fair value of the common stock based on the previous common stock transaction;
 
·
The projected volatility curve was based on the average of 17 comparable biotech companies historical volatility:
 
·
The Holder would automatically convert at a stock price of $1.70 if the Company was not in default;
 
·
The Holder would convert on a quarterly basis in equal amounts to maturity if in the money; and
 
·
Capital raising events would occur annually, generating reset events based on pricing not greater than 100% of market.

The warrants were valued at issuance and marked to market quarterly for the year ended December 31, 2009. The five-year warrants are options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share and $1.27, subject to adjustments. The following assumptions were used for the valuation of the derivative:
 
·
The stock price of $0.85 was used as the fair value of the common stock based on the previous common stock transaction;
 
·
The projected volatility curve was based on the average of comparable companies as provided in the Preferred assumptions above;
 
·
The Holder would exercise the warrant at maturity if the stock price was above the exercise price;
 
·
The Holder would exercise the warrant at target prices starting at $1.58 for the Investor Warrants and $1.40 for the Placement Agent Warrants, and lowering such target as the warrants approached maturity.
 
·
The Holder would automatically convert all of the shares at a stock price of $1.58 for the Investor Warrants and $1.40 for the Placement Agent Warrants;
 
·
The Holder would convert on a quarterly basis in amounts not to exceed the average quarters trading volume based on historical performance, assuming the volume would increase by 5% each quarter; and
 
·
Capital raising events would occur annually, generating reset events based on pricing not greater than 100% of market for the Placement Agent Warrants and for the Investor Warrants the reset would be 150% of the Preferred.

NOTE 8 – SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) has been authorized by resolutions adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights (“Certificate of Designation”), filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on November 26, 2008, which contains the designations, rights, powers, preferences, qualifications and limitations of the Preferred Stock. The shares of Preferred Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

As of December 31, 2009 the Company has issued 2,262 share of Series A Convertible Preferred stock as detailed in Note 4 above. Below is a discussion of the terms of these securities.

Rank
The Preferred Stock ranks(i) senior to the common stock and any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock either specifically ranking by its terms junior to the Preferred Stock or not specifically ranking by its terms senior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock, (ii) on parity with any class or series of the Company’s capital stock specifically ranking by its terms on parity with the Preferred Stock, and (iii) junior to any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Preferred Stock, in each case, as to payment of dividends or as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary. The approval of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock is required in order for the Company to issue any capital stock with rights on parity with or senior to the Preferred Stock.

Dividends
The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive annual cumulative per share dividends of 6.5% of the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock, out of funds legally available, prior to any payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock or any other class of stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock. Such dividends are payable in cash or shares of common stock, at the option of the Company, semiannually on the last business day of February and August of each year (each a “Dividend Payment Date”), commencing in February 2009 with respect to the period from issuance through such date. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to share ratably with the holders of the common stock in any dividend declared on the common stock.

Dividends on the Preferred Stock will accrue whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not such dividends are declared. Dividends accumulate to the extent they are not paid on the Dividend Payment Date to which they relate. Dividends that are due in cash and which are not paid within (5) business days of the Dividend Payment date shall bear interest until paid at the default rate. According to Delaware law, the Company may declare and pay dividends or make other distributions on its capital stock only out of legally-available funds. In addition, no dividends or distributions may be declared, paid or made if the Company is or would be rendered insolvent by virtue of such dividend or distribution.

The Company may not (i) pay any dividends in respect of any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), other than dividends payable in the form of additional shares of the same junior stock as that on which such dividend is declared, or (ii) redeem any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), unless and until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock have been, or contemporaneously are, declared and paid in full.

Conversion
At the election of the holder thereof, each share of Preferred Stock will be convertible into common stock, at any time after issuance, at the Conversion Rate, as it may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the Certificate of Designation. The Preferred Stock will not convert automatically into Common Stock upon completion of this offering and only the underlying Common Stock issuable upon conversion is registered for the resale under this prospectus.

If the Company issues or sells any shares of its common stock (or options, warrants or convertible securities, convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock) hereinafter, a “Subsequent common stock Issuance”), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted so that the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of each share of preferred stock shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $1,000 by the price per share of common stock (or the conversion price per share in the case of a sale of options, warrants or convertible securities) sold in such Subsequent common stock Issuance.

The Conversion Price is also subject to adjustment from time to time in the event of (i) the issuance of common stock as a dividend or distribution on any class of the Company’s capital stock; or (ii) the combination, subdivision or reclassification of the common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion. Payment of accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon conversion to the extent of legally-available funds.

The shares of Preferred Stock may also be converted into common stock at the Conversion Rate at the Company’s option following the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, if the Company’s common stock trades above 200% of the Conversion Rate per share for a period of 20 consecutive trading days.

Voting Rights
The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, voting as a class, shall be required to authorize, effect or validate (i) any change in the rights, privileges or preferences of the Preferred Stock that would adversely affect the Preferred Stock, or (ii) the authorization, creation, issuance or increase in the authorized or issued amount of any class or series of stock ranking on parity with or superior to the Preferred Stock with respect to the declaration and payment of dividends or distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our Company. In addition, the holders of Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote, together with holders of common stock as single class, on all matters upon which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote pursuant to applicable Delaware law or the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. The Preferred Stock shall vote on an “as converted basis” with each holder of Preferred Stock having one vote for each Conversion Share underlying such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock.

Liquidation
In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company (whether capital or surplus), or the proceeds thereof, may be made or set apart for the holders common stock or any stock ranking junior to Preferred Stock, the holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders, a liquidating distribution of $1,000 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. If, upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company are insufficient to make the full payment of $1,000 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock and similar payments on any other class of stock ranking on a parity with the Preferred Stock upon liquidation, then the holders of Preferred Stock and such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of the Company’s assets in proportion to the full respective distributable amounts to which they are entitled. Certain events, including a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation or sale or conveyance of all or substantially all the property and assets of the Company will be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company for purposes of the foregoing.

NOTE 9 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

The Company’s 2009 Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Option Plan”) was adapted by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 9, 2009. The 2009 Plan, which is administered by our Board of Directors, authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 500,000 shares of our common stock, which may be authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. Employee options shall be deemed Incentive Stock Options (as defined in the 2009 Option Plan) to the maximum extent permitted by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code including a five-year limit on exercise for 10% or greater stockholders with any excess grant to the above individuals over the limits set by Section 422 being Non-Qualified Stock Options as defined in the 2009 Option Plan. Both the Incentive Stock Options or any Non-Qualified Stock Options must be granted at an exercise price of not less than the fair market value of shares of common stock at the time the option is granted and Incentive Stock Options granted to 10% or greater stockholders must be granted at an exercise price of not less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. If any award under the 2009 Plan terminates, expires unexercised, or is cancelled, the shares of common stock that would otherwise have been issuable pursuant thereto will be available for issuance pursuant to the grant of new awards. The 2009 Plan will terminate on February 9, 2019. As of December 31, 2009 no options had been granted under the plan.

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements because the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. The components of the net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2009 and 2008, the statutory tax rate, the adjustments to reconcile to income tax expense and the amount of the valuation allowance are indicated below:

The Company has incurred operating losses of $2,997,150 which, if unutilized, will expire through to 2030. Future tax benefits, which may arise as a result of these losses, have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements, and have been offset by a valuation allowance.

The Company did not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

NOTE 11 – RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On August 27, 2009 the Company was informed that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") revoked the registration of Moore & Associates who was serving as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The revocation was a result of Moore’s violation of PCAOB rules and auditing standards. This revocation of Moore’s registration required the Company to have the financial statements previously issued reaudited for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

NOTE 11 – RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

This reaudit produced material differences from the previously filed versions. These misstatements are the result of the following errors:

The Company inappropriately recorded a warrant expense for the fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the sale of its convertible preferred stock. This resulted in an overstatement of Additional Paid-in Capital and General & Administrative Expense of $799,184 (item A). Additionally, the Company recorded the issuance of 57,500 shares in both the period ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. This resulted in an overstatement of Common Stock of $58, Additional Paid-in Capital of $38,467 and Stock Offering Costs of $38,524 (item B). The $38,524 overstatement of stock offering costs offsets the overstatement of Additional Paid-in Capital thus only the $799,184 change due to item A is reflected in the net change column below.

The Company also discovered that there were various timing differences in accruing accounts payable and the associated operating expense at period ends. The aggregate of these difference are found in Items C. The Company also misstated the number of preferred and common stock issued and outstanding which required adjustments to be made to common stock, preferred stock and additional paid-in capital (Items D). The difference between the net change in the statement of operations and the net change in retained earnings on the balance sheet is due to $90,768 of changes that affected the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007. This effect is also being realized as part of the restatement of the 2008 financial statements.

On or about August 2, 2010, the Company determined that it had improperly classified its preferred stock and related warrants as permanent equity when, due to certain provisions of the preferred stock and warrants, these instruments should have been classified as derivative liabilities under ASC 815. The error resulted in an overstatement of the Company’s additional paid-in capital account, an understatement of its current liabilities, and an overstatement of the Company’s net income. Under ASC 815, derivative instruments are to be revalued at each reporting period with any change in the fair value of the instruments being recorded in the Company’s income statement. The cumulative effect of the error through June 30, 2010 is a $340,786 reduction to the Company’s net income, a $3,027,055 increase in current liabilities, and a $2,686,269 decrease in additional paid-in capital. Below are tables detailing the effect of the error on the Company’s previously filed financial statements for the year end December 31, 2009 and for all reporting periods from March 31, 2009 through March 31, 2010.

Included in this filing are the restated 2009 and 2008 fiscal year financial statements. For comparative purposes, the table below presents the reaudited balance sheets and income statements compared to the original filing.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The following statutes, charter provisions and by-laws are the only statutes, charter provisions, by-laws, contracts or other arrangements known to the registrant which insure or indemnify a controlling person, director or officer of the registrant in any manner against liability which he or she may incur in his or her capacity as such.

The Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation provides:
 
SEVENTH:        The personal liability of the directors of the Corporation is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of paragraph (7) of subsection (b) of § 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a director of the Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Article SEVENTH shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal.

EIGHTH:           The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of § 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under said section from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities, or other matters referred to in or covered by said section, and the indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such person.
 
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
On May 12, 2008, the Registrant sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 Founders Shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value, to the following five (5) persons: Bruce Meyers, the Registrant’s founder (2,600,000 shares); Meyers Associates, L.P. (2,600,000 shares); Imtiaz Khan (2,500,000 shares); Dr. Arthur Bollon, a Director (800,000 shares) and Dr. Lawrence Helson, Chief Executive Officer (1,500,000 shares). The shares were issued in consideration of par value of $.001 per share and services rendered. There were no underwriters in connection with the above transaction. The Registrant believes that these securities were issued in transactions not involving any public offering in reliance upon an exception from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
 
II-1

 

Between August 2007 and April 2008, the Registrant completed five separate private financings (collectively, the “Bridge Financing”) with certain accredited investors of units, each unit consisting of $1 in principal amount of 10% promissory notes (referred to herein as the “Bridge Notes”) and shares of Common Stock (the “Bridge Shares”). The Registrant raised gross proceeds of approximately $847,500 in the Bridge Financing and the holders of the Bridge Note also received an aggregate of 1,365,000 Bridge Shares. The holders of $889,876 of Bridge Notes (including accrued and unpaid interest) converted their Bridge Notes into Units in the Registrant’s November 28, 2008 financing described below. Mr. Meyers, the principal of the Placement Agent and the Registrant’s founder was the holder of $57,500 in principal amount of Bridge Notes which he exchanged for Units in the November 28, 2008 financing and retained his 57,500 Bridge Shares.
 
On November 28, 2008, SignPath sold 1451.88 units (“Units”) of its securities at a price of $1,000 per Unit. Each Unit consists of (i) one share of 6.5% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into 1,177 shares of common stock (equivalent to $.85 per share of common stock) following the effective date of this Registration Statement, subject to adjustment, and (ii) one Warrant to purchase, 1,177 shares of common stock at $1.27 per share for a five-year period following the effective date. The Units were sold to 21 accredited investors, including Meyers Associates, L.P., which purchased 117 Units as placement agent. Bruce Meyers, Founder of the Registrant, President and CEO of the Placement Agent, purchased 264.67 units. The Placement Agent received sales and commissions of 10% of the gross proceeds of $1,451,875 from the sale of Units, as well as a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the offering, and a Unit Purchase Option to purchase 15% of the securities sold in the offering. The registrant believes that these securities were issued in transactions not involving any public offering in reliance upon an exception from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Between February 19, 2009 and April 3, 2009, the Registrant sold 310 Units (the same as described in the prior paragraph) pursuant to a new offering dated December 12, 2008. The Units were sold to seven accredited investors. Meyers Associates L.P., the Placement Agent, received sales commissions of 10% ($31,000) of the gross proceeds of $310,000 from the sale of Units, as well as a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the offering, and a Unit Purchase Option to purchase 15% of the securities sold in the offering. The registrant believes that these securities were issued in transactions not involving any public offering in reliance upon an exception from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Between June 17, 2009 and August 30, 2010, the Registrant sold 550 Units (the same as described in the prior paragraph). The Units were sold to seven accredited investors. Meyers Associates L.P., the Placement Agent, received sales commissions of 10% ($55,000) of the gross proceeds of $550,000 from the sale of Units, as well as a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the offering, and a Unit Purchase Option to purchase 15% of the securities sold in the offering. The registrant believes that these securities were issued in transactions not involving any public offering in reliance upon an exception from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

* Filed with this Registration Statement

(1) Incorporated by reference to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-158474), declared effective on August 10, 2009.

(2) Incorporated by reference to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Item 17. Undertakings
 
The registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”);

(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
(iii) Include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement on any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

II-3


(4) For determining liability under the Act, to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (230.424 of this chapter); (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
 
(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 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, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(6) For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as a part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the 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 first use, 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 date of first use.
