EXPLANATORY NOTE
We originally filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the
Original 10-K) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 31, 2010 (the
Original Filing Date). The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (Form 10-K/A) is to
revise certain information contained in the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations (MD&A) and to revise our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2009 (fiscal 2009)
to reclassify certain amounts in the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and to expand certain footnote
disclosures, which are included in our Original 10-K. Management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors concluded that
the discussion of MD&A, the Companys financial statements for fiscal 2009 and certain related matters
(the Revisions) should be revised due certain review comments made by the Staff of the SEC.
This Form 10-K/A only amends and restates Items 7, 8, and 9A of Part II and Item 15 of Part IV of
our Original 10-K, in each case, solely as a result of, and to reflect, the Revisions, and no other
information in our Original 10-K is amended hereby. Except for the amended or restated information
contained herein, this Form 10-K/A continues to speak as of the Original Filing Date (unless
explicitly identified as of another date). Other events or circumstances occurring after the
Original Filing Date or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have not been
updated subsequent to the date of the Original 10-K. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read
in conjunction with our periodic filings, including any amendments to those filings, as well as any
Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC, subsequent to the Original Filing Date of our
Original 10-K.
In addition to this Amendment No. 1 to our Form 10-K, we are simultaneously filing amendments to
our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010 and to our Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended June 30, 2010.

| Off Balance Sheet Arrangements |
Plan of Operations
As a development-stage enterprise, the Company had no significant operating revenues through
December 31, 2009. Operating revenues commenced in January 2010 with direct sales to physicians and
the signing of a distribution agreement in North Carolina and South Carolina. Revenues will be
predominately the result of product sales, fees for tests performed and licensing fees.
At December 31, 2009 our cash balance was $544,000. During 2009 we received $128,000 from the
sale of our common stock, $351,000 from the sale of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
(Series B preferred stock), $2,671,000 from the sale of 8% Convertible Promissory Notes (8%
Notes) and $903,000 from the sale of 8% Subordinated Convertible Notes (8% Subordinated Notes).
In the first three months of 2010, we received $970,000 from the sale of the 8% Subordinated Notes.
Our Series B preferred stock yields cumulative annual dividends at an annual rate of 8%.
Dividends on the Series B preferred stock accrue from their issuance date. Each share of Series B
preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at an
initial conversion price equal to $0.80 per share prior to a Qualified Financing plus the amount of
all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares, whether or not declared. A Qualified Financing is
defined as the closing of a sale of debt or equity in a registered offering or pursuant to a
private placement resulting in at least $3 million of gross proceeds to the Company. The conversion
price of the Series B preferred stock is subject to adjustment in certain cases, including dilutive
issuances and the issuance of additional shares of common stock. The Series B preferred stock will
automatically be converted into shares of common stock upon the consummation of a Liquidation
Event. A Liquidation Event is defined as a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the affairs of the Company. The Company may, at its option, require all holders of
Series B preferred stock then outstanding to convert their shares of Series B preferred stock into
shares of common stock at any time on or after the closing of a Qualified Financing. Once the
shares of Series B preferred stock are converted into shares of common stock upon a Qualified
Financing, there will be no further accruals by the Company for annual dividends.
The 8% Notes accrue interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The 8% Notes are due two years from
the date of issue and are convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at any time
prior to maturity. The conversion price is equal to the lesser of (i) 75% multiplied by the Market
Price, which is defined as the average of the lowest three trading prices for the common stock
during the ten trading day period ending one trading day prior to the date the conversion notice is
sent by the noteholder to the Company, and

(ii) $1.07 per share. As of December 31, 2009, approximately $1.57 million of the 8% Notes had
been converted into 2,513,950 shares of our common stock and as of May 31, 2010 all of the 8% Notes
had been converted into 6,585,302 shares of our common stock.
The 8% Subordinated Notes accrue interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The 8% Subordinated
Notes are due on October 7, 2012 and are subordinated to the 8% Notes. The 8% Subordinated Notes
are subject to mandatory conversion into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to
the lesser of $.80 per share or 80% of the price per share of common stock sold in a Qualified
Funding Event. A Qualified Funding Event is defined as the sale of debt or equity in a registered
offering or private placement, which sale results in at least $3 million of gross proceeds to the
Company. Until the 8% Notes have been converted by the holders or have been repaid, the holders of
the 8% Subordinated Notes have no voluntary conversion rights. Since all the 8% Notes have been
converted into shares of our common stock as of May 31, 2010, the holders may voluntarily convert
the 8% Subordinated Notes into shares of our common stock at $0.80 per share. Once the 8%
Subordinated Notes are converted into shares of common stock upon a Qualified Funding Event, this
will eliminate the indebtedness represented by the 8% Subordinated Notes and result in there being
no further accruals by the Company for annual interest.
Our plan of operations consists of:
1. | Increasing sales of the PD2i Analyzer to physicians and health care facilities in the United States through the use of independent sales agents and direct sales personnel. | ||
2. | Raising additional capital with which to expand the sales and administrative infrastructure and fund ongoing operations until our operations generate positive cash flow. | ||
3. | Completing various clinical trials and 510(k) submission(s) to secure additional marketing claims for the PD2i Analyzer to enhance and accelerate marketing efforts. | ||
4. | Initiating international sales of the PD2i Analyzer() and PD2i-VS() (Vital Sign), including securing CE Mark Clearance, if required. |
However, we cannot assure that we will be successful in raising additional capital to
implement our business plan. Further, we cannot assure, assuming that we raise additional funds,
that we will achieve profitability or positive cash flow. If we are not able to timely and
successfully raise additional capital and/or achieve profitability and positive cash flow, our
operating business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations may be materially and
adversely affected.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The following are deemed to be the most significant accounting policies affecting the Company
and our results of operations:
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and
development activities, including wages and associated employee benefits, facilities and overhead
costs and payments to collaborative research partners. All such expenditures and costs are expensed
as incurred.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property consists of patents and other proprietary technology, is stated at cost
and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the economic estimated useful lives of the assets.
Costs and expenses incurred in creating intellectual property are expensed as incurred. The cost of
purchased intellectual property is capitalized. Software development costs are expensed as
incurred.
Revenue Recognition
Operating revenues commenced in January 2010 and are predominately the result of equipment
sales and fees related to the analysis of test results for tests performed. Revenues are recognized
at the time of product shipment or upon the performance of tests. The Company also plans on
generating revenues from licensing fees which will be recognized in accordance with the contract
terms.

Gain on Derivative Financial Instruments
On January 1, 2009 we adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. During
2009 we reported a gain on derivative financial instruments of $2,157,000 that resulted from
holders of securities containing embedded derivative features and converting them into our common
stock, and from our measuring the periodic changes in the fair value of these derivative financial
instruments, during the year.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
We have recorded equity-based compensation expense for employees and nonemployees in
accordance with the fair-value provisions of ASC 718, principally the result of granting stock
options and warrants to employees with an exercise price below the fair value of the shares on the
date of grant.
Equity Based Compensation
The Company grants stock purchase warrants to independent consultants, contractors and note
holders and values these warrants using the fair-value provisions of ASC 718.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth expenses and percentages of total expenses represented by

Year Ending December 31, 2009 Compared to December 31, 2008
Research and Development
For the year ended December 31, 2009, research and development costs were $964,000, or 13.2%
of total expenses, compared to $993,000, or 14.8% of total expenses, for the year ended
December 31, 2008. The decrease in expenses was primarily attributable to a
6
Table of Contents
decrease in the VITAL Trial costs due to its suspension and commencement of a collaboration
with the University of Rochester for data analysis of the MUSIC Trial data for SCD, a less costly
process.
We anticipate that research and development costs will continue in the future, but at levels
more closely approximating those of 2009. As our products become commercially available in the
marketplace, we expect more collaborative research efforts from third parties to take place,
reducing the extent to which Vicor-sponsored and funded research and development will be required.
Selling, General and Administrative
For the year ended December 31, 2009, selling, general and administrative costs were
$3,664,000, or 50.0% of total expenses, compared to $2,433,000, or 36.2% of total expenses, for the
year ended December 31, 2008. The $1,231,000 increase was primarily due to increases of $474,000 in
legal and accounting fees resulting from advisory services to develop derivatives accounting
procedures and legal fees related to various note offerings and $594,000 in consulting and computer
programming fees incurred in readying our product for commercial launch, and in building the
information technology infrastructure required to support the anticipated demands of our products
and operations.
Interest Expense
For the year ended December 31, 2009, interest costs were $2,485,000, or 33.9% of total
expenses, compared to $2,161,000, or 32.1% of total expenses, for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Interest expense in 2009 includes $1,665,000 of noncash charges from periodic amortization of debt
discount and of unamortized debt discount written off upon conversion of convertible notes.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
For the year ended December 31, 2009, loss on extinguishment of debt amounted to $167,000, or
2.3% of total expenses, compared to $1,099,000, or 16.3% of total expenses for the year ended
December 31, 2008. During 2008 the Company offered incentives to debt holders to tender the debt
for shares of the Companys common stock and Series B preferred stock. There were fewer levels of
similar activity in 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As a development-stage enterprise, we had no significant operating revenues through
December 31, 2009. Operating revenues commenced in January 2010. We are working to generate
operating cash flow and are continuing to raise capital with which to execute our business plan and
finance our commercial operations. Please see the discussions contained in Plan of Operations and
Going Concern.
Going Concern
We have prepared our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009 on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities
and commitments in the normal course of business. We incurred a net loss of $5,164,000 for the year
ended December 31, 2009 and had an accumulated deficit of $53,462,000 at December 31, 2009. We
expect to incur substantial expenditures to further the commercial development of our products.
However, our working capital at December 31, 2009, ($542,000), will not be sufficient to meet such
objectives. Management recognizes that the Company must generate additional cash to successfully
commercialize its products. Management plans include the sale of additional equity or debt
securities, alliances or other partnerships with entities interested in and resources to support
the further development of the Companys products as well as other business transactions, to assure
continuation of Vicors development and operations.
We have raised approximately $23,000,000 since our inception in 2000 in a series of private
placements of our common stock, convertible preferred stock and convertible notes.
However, we may not be successful in raising additional capital. Further, assuming that we
raise additional funds, the Company may not achieve positive cash flow or profitability. If we are
not able to timely and successfully raise additional capital and/or achieve positive cash flow or
profitability, our operating business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations
may be materially and adversely affected.

Item 9A(1). Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we conducted an evaluation under
the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting
Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e)
of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing
similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
There was no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these
controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to
materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by or under
the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Accounting Officer and effected by our
board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 was
conducted on the basis of the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation,
management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
December 31, 2009.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not
subject to attestation requirements by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to
temporary rules of the Commission that permit the Company to provide only managements report in
this Annual Report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
VICOR Technologies, Inc.
VICOR Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VICOR Technologies, Inc. (the
Company) a Delaware Corporation as of December 31, 2008 and 2009, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, changes in shareholders equity (net capital deficiency) and cash flows
for the years then ended and the period from August 4, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2009.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting 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
Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of VICOR Technologies, Inc. at December 31, 2008 and
2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and the period
from August 4, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will
continue as a going concern. However, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and
had negative cash flows from operations that raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding those matters are also described in
Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 Organization and Nature of Business
Organization
Vicor Technologies, Inc. (Vicor, the Company) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on
May 24, 2005 as SRKP 6, Inc. (SRKP). On August 3, 2005 SKRP filed a registration statement on
Form 10-SB, subsequently amended on August 29, 2005, to register common stock under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The registration statement became effective
on October 3, 2005, after which time SKRP became a reporting company under the Exchange Act. The
Company was formed to pursue a business combination with one or more operating companies.
On March 30, 2007 SKRP acquired Vicor Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Old Vicor)
formed in August 2000, through the merger (Merger) of Old Vicor with a wholly-owned subsidiary
formed for the purpose of facilitating that transaction. Upon the closing of the Merger on
March 30, 2007, Old Vicor became a wholly-owned subsidiary. Effective March 31, 2007 Old Vicor was
merged into SKRP and changed its name to Vicor Technologies, Inc. At the closing each outstanding
share of Old Vicor common stock was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive
two shares of Vicor common stock. The Company also assumed all outstanding options and warrants to
purchase Old Vicor common stock which were not exercised, cancelled, exchanged, terminated, or
expired. Upon the consummation of the Merger, the Company was obligated to issue an aggregate of
22,993,723 shares of its common stock to Old Vicors former common stockholders and 157,592 shares
of its Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock) to Old Vicors former
preferred stockholder. In addition, all securities convertible or exercisable into shares of Old
Vicors capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger (excluding Old Vicors preferred
stock and convertible debt) were cancelled, and the holders thereof received similar securities for
the purchase of an aggregate of 800,250 shares of Vicor common stock.
The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, to be applied as an equity
recapitalization in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for accounting
and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, SRKP was treated as the
acquired company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to
these circumstances, the Merger was considered to be a capital transaction in substance.
Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of Old Vicor issuing
stock for the net monetary assets of SRKP, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net monetary
assets of SRKP were stated at their fair value, essentially equivalent to historical costs, with no
goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The accumulated deficit of Old Vicor was carried
forward after the Merger. Operations prior to the Merger are those of Old Vicor.
All share and per share amounts were restated to reflect the recapitalization.
The Company owns all of the outstanding common stock of Nonlinear Medicine, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (NMI), and Stasys Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (STI). NMI owns all
intellectual property related to Vicors diagnostic products, and STI owns all intellectual
property related to the Companys therapeutic products.
Nature of the business
Vicor is a medical diagnostics company focused on commercializing noninvasive diagnostic
technology products based on its patented, proprietary point correlation dimension algorithm (the
PD2i® Algorithm). The PD2i®Algorithm facilitates the ability to accurately
risk stratify a specific target population to predict future pathological events. The Company
believes that the PD2i® Algorithm represents a noninvasive monitoring technology that
physicians and other members of the medical community can use as a new and accurate vital sign and
is currently commercializing two proprietary diagnostic medical products which employ software
utilizing the PD2i® Algorithm: the PD2i Analyzer() (sometimes also referred
to as the PD2i Cardiac Analyzer()) and the PD2i-VS() (Vital Sign). It is
also anticipated that the PD2i®Algorithm applications will allow for the early detection
of Alzheimers disease and other disorders and diseases.
The Companys first product, the PD2i Analyzer(), received 510(k) marketing
clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on December 29, 2008. The PD2i
Analyzer() displays and analyzes electrocardiographic (ECG) information and measures
heart rate variability (HRV) in patients at rest and in response to controlled exercise and paced
respiration. The clinical significance of HRV and other parameters must be determined by a
physician. On January 14, 2010 Vicor announced its first commercial sale of the PD2i
Analyzer() to a physician practice in South Carolina and simultaneously announced that
it had entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with VF Medical, LLC, a medical products
distribution company. VF Medical, LLC will serve as the exclusive distributor for the PD2i
Analyzer() in South Carolina, North Carolina, and the cities of Savannah and Augusta,
Georgia. VF Medical, LLC will utilize a 25-person medical products distribution team consisting of
agents who have long-term relationships with

cardiologists, electrophysiologists, and family practice and internal medicine physicians
within the designated territory. The Company is seeking other distributors and has begun hiring
sales personnel in selected geographic areas.
In January 2008 Vicor executed a Collaborative Research and Development Agreement (Research
and Development Agreement) with the U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research (US Army) for
Prediction of Injury Severity and Outcome in the Critically Ill Using the Point Correlation
Dimension Algorithm, or PD2i. The U.S. Army is exploring ways to assess the severity of injury,
and probability of survival, of critically injured combat casualties and critically ill civilian
patients. The US Army in conjunction with Vicor is testing the PD2i VS() in several
diverse cohorts, including human trauma, patients in the intensive care units (ICU Patients) and
combat casualties. Various experiments have been performed under the Research and Development
Agreement, and the U.S. Army has presented the findings at several conferences in the United States
and Europe. Manuscripts and abstracts have also been published by leading journals with Vicor and
the US Army as co-authors. The PD2i- VS() is anticipated to be used for civilian
triage and trauma emergency response.
In early 2009 Vicor signed a Research Agreement with the University of Rochester and the
Catalan Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences in Barcelona to collaborate on the PD2i analysis of
data collected for the Merte Subita en Insufficiencia Cardiaca (MUSIC) Trial. The collaboration is
entitled Prognostic Significance of Point Correlation Dimension Algorithm (PD2i) in Chronic Heart
Failure. The Company is using the PD2i Analyzer() to retrospectively predict Sudden
Cardiac Death (SCD) in the 651 congestive heart failure patients who participated in the MUSIC
Trial (of which 52 actually died from SCD). This analysis was completed in the first quarter of
2010, and Vicor believes it will yield a dataset sufficient to support a 510(k) submission to
include a claim for SCD.
Risks
The Company is subject to all the risks inherent in an early stage company in the
biotechnology industry. The biotechnology industry is subject to rapid and technological change.
The Company has numerous competitors, including major pharmaceutical and chemical companies,
medical device manufacturers, specialized biotechnology firms, universities and other research
institutions. These competitors may succeed in developing technologies and products that are more
effective than any that are being developed by the Company or that would render the Companys
technology and products obsolete and noncompetitive. Many of these competitors have substantially
greater financial and technical resources and production and marketing capabilities than the
Company. In addition, many of the Companys competitors have significantly greater experience than
the Company in pre-clinical testing and human clinical trials of new or improved pharmaceutical
products and in obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals on products or devices for use in
health care.
The Company has limited experience in conducting and managing pre-clinical testing necessary
to enter clinical trials required to obtain government approvals and has limited experience in
conducting clinical trials. Accordingly, the Companys competitors may succeed in obtaining FDA
approval for products more rapidly than the Company, which could adversely affect the Companys
ability to further develop and market its products. If the Company commences significant commercial
sales of its products, it will also be competing with respect to manufacturing efficiency and
marketing capabilities, areas in which the Company has limited or no experience.
Note 2 Liquidity
The Companys financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement
of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss
applicable to common stockholders of $8,509,000 and $6,622,000 for the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2009, respectively, and at December 31, 2009 had negative working capital of $542,000, an
accumulated deficit of $53,462,000 and a net capital deficiency of $6,610,000. The Company expects
to continue to incur expenditures to further the commercial development of its products. These
matters raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Management recognizes that the Company must generate additional resources to successfully
commercialize its products. Management plans include the sale of additional equity or debt
securities, alliances or other partnerships with entities interested in and having the resources to
support the further development of its products as well as other business transactions to assure
continuation of the Companys development and operations. The Company is executing its plan to
secure additional capital through a multi-part funding strategy. The Company believes that the
amount of capital generated by this plan will be sufficient to permit completion of various
clinical trials and provide sufficient working capital for the next 24 30 months, by which time
it is expected that the Company will generate positive cash flow through the sales of its products.
However, no assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in raising additional
capital or entering into business alliances. Further, there can be no assurance, assuming the
Company successfully raises additional funds or enters into a business alliance, that the Company
will achieve profitability or positive cash flow. If the Company is not able to timely and
successfully raise

additional capital and/or achieve positive cash flow, its business, financial condition, cash
flows and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.
Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of
Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. The Companys consolidated financial statement amounts have been
rounded to the nearest thousand.
Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle
On June 25, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ratified the consensus reached by
the Emerging Issues Task Force in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Determining
Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entitys Own Stock. This Issue
provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded
feature) is indexed to an entitys own stock, which is the first part of the scope exception in
paragraph 11(a) of Statement 133. If an embedded feature (for example, the conversion option
embedded in a convertible debt instrument) does not meet the scope exception in paragraph 11(a) of
Statement 133, it would be separated from the host contract (the debt instrument) and be separately
accounted for as a derivative by the issuer. ASC 815 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
to be applied to outstanding instruments as of the effective date.
The Companys Series B preferred stock and related warrants contain terms in which the
conversion or exercise price may be reduced if the company issues or sells shares of its common
stock at a price less than the conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock or the exercise
price of the warrants. Under the consensus reached in ASC 815, the conversion option is not
considered indexed to the Companys own stock because the conversion rate can be affected by future
equity offerings undertaken by the Company at the then-current market price of the related shares.
Therefore, such embedded features are now accounted for as derivatives, which are presented as
liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles. As a change in accounting principle,
this resulted in adjustments on January 1, 2009 as follows:

$ | (3,569,000 | ) | $ | 4,049,000 | $ | (480,000 | ) | ||||
Management calculated the fair values at issuance and the mark-to-market gains using the
Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate
of 2.10% 4.25%, expected life of 5 years, expected volatility of 63% and dividend yield of zero.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Management believes
the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal. The Company places its
cash with high credit quality financial institutions and makes short-term investments in high
credit quality money market instruments of short-term duration. The Company maintains its cash in
bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000.
At December 31, 2009 the Company had accounts with balances in excess of FDIC insured limits by
$257,164. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Table of Contents
Property and Equipment
Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to five
years. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and amortized over the shorter of the estimated
useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred and major renovations or improvements are capitalized.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development expenditures, are comprised of costs incurred in performing research
and development activities. These include payments to collaborative research partners, including
wages and associated employee benefits, facilities and overhead costs. These are expensed as
incurred.
Revenue Recognition
As discussed in Note 1, operating revenues commenced in January 2010 and are predominately the
result of equipment sales and fees related to the analysis of test results for tests performed.
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. Revenue is
considered realized and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has
occurred or services have been rendered; fees to the customer are fixed or determinable; and
collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
The Company sells equipment to physicians and other health-care providers (Customer or
Customers) both through sales representatives employed by the Company and also independent sales
agents. Revenues from equipment sales to Customers are generally recognized when title transfers to
the Customer, typically upon delivery and acceptance, and includes training that is provided at the
time of product delivery. Revenues from sales of equipment to independent sales agents to be used
by the agents as demonstration units are recognized upon shipment.
The Companys normal payment terms are net 30 days. However, in cases where the Company grants
extended payment terms to a Customer, the Company defers revenue recognition until Customer
acceptance of the equipment.
Revenues from the analysis of test results are recognized upon provision of the test results
to the Customers.
The Company obtained Phase I and II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Grants in 2003
- 2005 amounting to a total of $844,000. The funds received were utilized to develop software for
the PD2i Cardiac Analyzer and to conduct a study of 700 patients with chest pain presenting at
emergency rooms in six (6) tertiary care facilities. The aim of the grant was to test and establish
good medical practice through wide experimental use of the Analyzer at different emergency room
sites with high risk patients. The funds received for this Grant have been treated as revenues by
the Company in its consolidated financial statements and were recorded when costs to perform such
research and development activities were incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all investments purchased with original maturities of three months or
less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property, consisting of patents and other proprietary technology acquired by the
Company is stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
the assets.

Table of Contents
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The Company uses the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation arrangements under which compensation cost is determined using the fair value of
stock-based compensation determined as of the grant date and is recognized over the periods in
which the related services are rendered.
The Company has also granted stock purchase warrants to independent consultants and
contractors and values these warrants using the fair value-based method described in the preceding
paragraph. The compensation cost so determined is recognized over the period the services are
provided which usually results in compensation cost being recognized at the date of the grant.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts
payable and notes payable approximates fair value as of December 31, 2008 and 2009.
Convertible securities with detachable warrants that do not contain features requiring them to
be accounted for as embedded derivatives are valued by allocating the proceeds between the warrant
and the convertible security based on relative fair values, with any resulting fixed beneficial
conversion feature (BCF) embedded in the convertible security being recorded at its intrinsic
value.
Convertible securities containing detachable warrants where the conversion price of the
security and/or the exercise price of the warrants are affected by the current market price of the
Companys common stock are accounted for as derivative financial instruments when the exercise and
conversion prices are not considered to be indexed to the Companys own stock. These derivatives
are recorded as a liability and presented in the consolidated balance sheet under the caption
derivative financial instruments payable in common stock.
For such issuances of convertible securities with detachable warrants, the Company initially
records both the warrant and the BCF at fair value, using options pricing models commonly used by
the financial services industry (Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing model) using inputs generally
observable in the financial services industry. These derivative financial instruments are marked to
market each reporting period, with unrealized changes in value reflected in earnings under the
caption gain (loss) on derivative financial instruments.
For discounts arising from issuances of instruments embedded in a debt security, the discount
is accounted for as a discount to the principal amount of the related note payable. For discounts
arising from issuances of instruments embedded in an equity security, the discount is accounted for
as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.
The resulting discounts arising from the initial recording of the warrants are amortized over
the term of the host security, and the discounts arising from the BCF are amortized over the period
when the conversion right first becomes exercisable. The classification of the amortization is
based on the nature of the host instrument. In this respect, amortization of discounts associated
with debt issuances are classified as interest expense, whereas amortization of discounts
associated with preferred stock issuances are classified as preferred stock dividends.
At the time a warrant is exercised or a BCF is exercised, the fair value of the derivative
financial instrument at time of exercise/conversion is calculated, and a realized gain or loss on
conversion is determined and reported as gain (loss) from derivative financial instruments.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used for
possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of its
intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash
flow of the individual assets over the remaining amortization period. The Company recognizes an
impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows. During
the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, there were no deemed impairments of long-lived assets.

Date of Management Review
The Company evaluates events and transactions occurring subsequent to the date of the
financial statements for matters requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements consider events through March 31, 2010, the date
through which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
Recent Accounting Developments
Accounting Standards Codification The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which
establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) as the source of authoritative
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by
nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative
guidance for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of
authority. All nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is
superseded and deemed nonauthoritative. ASC 105 is effective for financial statements issued for
interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 105 had no impact
on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Subsequent Events In February 2010 the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic
855), to remove the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which an entity has
evaluated subsequent events. This change removes potential conflicts with current SEC guidance. ASU
2010-09 also clarifies the intended scope of the reissuance disclosure provisions, is effective
upon issuance and had no impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows. ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that
occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be
issued. ASC 855 defines (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which a reporting
entitys management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition
or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should
recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial
statements, and (3) the disclosures an entity should make about events or transactions that
occurred after the balance sheet date. ASC 855 is effective prospectively for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 855 had no impact on the Companys
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures In January 2010 the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) Improving Disclosures about Fair Value
Measurements, which provides additional guidance relating to fair value measurement disclosures.
Specifically, companies will be required to separately disclose significant transfers into and out
of Level 1 and Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for those
transfers. For Level 3 fair value measurements, the new guidance requires a gross presentation of
activities within the Level 3 roll forward. Additionally, the FASB also clarified existing fair
value measurement disclosure requirements relating to the level of disaggregation, inputs, and
valuation techniques. This ASU is effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2009, except for the detailed Level 3 disclosures, which are effective for interim or
annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Since ASU 2010-06 only affects
disclosure requirements, the adoption of these provisions will have no impact on the Companys
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC 825-10-65 updates ASC 825, Financial Instruments, to
increase the frequency of fair value disclosures from an annual basis to a quarterly basis. The
guidance relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently
reflected on the balance sheet at fair value. These provisions of ASC 825 are effective for interim
and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. Since these provisions only affect disclosure
requirements, the adoption of these provisions under ASC 825 had no impact on the Companys
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Other new accounting pronouncements issued but not effective until after December 31, 2009,
are not expected to have a significant effect on the Companys financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flows.

2004 Notes
The 2004 Notes consist of a 12% convertible promissory note payable to a stockholder and is
convertible to common stock at $2.25 per common share. The maturity of the notes is being extended
on a month-to-month basis by agreement with the stockholder.
In 2006 the maturity date of the 2004 Notes was extended, and unamortized interest of $24,000
resulting from this event was recognized in 2008.
During 2008 holders of $340,000 of the 2004 Notes agreed to tender them to the Company in
consideration for 425,000 shares of Series B Junior Convertible Preferred Stock (convertible at
$0.80 per share) and warrants to purchase 425,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an
exercise price of $1.00 per share. The Company recognized a charge of $329,000 on the transaction,
which was classified as noncash interest expense. The beneficial conversion feature embedded in the
Series B Junior Convertible Preferred Stock and the warrants were valued at time of issuance using
the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the following assumptions: risk-free interest
rates ranging from 2.94% to 3.90%, expected life of 5 years, expected volatility ranging from 42%
to 138% and dividend yield of zero. (The beneficial conversion feature embedded in the Series B
Junior Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities as they
contain certain down round pricing protection.)
12% Convertible Promissory Notes
The 12% Convertible Promissory Notes (12% Notes) were originally due at varying dates in 2007
and bear interest at 12% per annum, payable monthly. During 2007 the Company negotiated extensions
of maturity and modified the terms of the conversion feature.
During 2008 holders of $1,427,236 of the 12% Notes agreed to tender them to the Company in
consideration for 1,534,045 shares of Series B Junior Convertible Preferred Stock (convertible at
$0.80 per share) and warrants to purchase 1,534,045 shares of the Companys common stock at an
exercise price of $1.00 per share. The Company recognized a charge of $522,000 on the transaction,
which was classified as noncash interest expense. The beneficial conversion feature embedded in the
Series B Junior Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants were valued at time of issuance using the
Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the following assumptions: risk-free interest
rates ranging from 2.94% to 4.29%, expected life of 5 years, expected volatility ranging from 42%
to 138% and dividend yield of zero. (The beneficial conversion feature embedded in the Series B
Junior Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities as they
contain certain down round pricing protection.)
Three officers, who were also directors, and one director holding a total of $40,000 of the
12% Notes converted them into 12,500 shares of Series B preferred stock and 12,500 warrants to
purchase common stock in the transaction described above.
Also during 2008, four of the 12% Notes valued at $72,000 were redeemed for cash and 11,719
immediately exercisable penalty warrants, which expire five years after date of issuance, were
issued at an exercise price of $0.64 per share. The Company recognized $10,000 in noncash interest
expense. The maturity dates of the remaining $110,000 of the 12% Notes are being extended on a
month-by-month basis.
15% Promissory Notes
Interest on the 15% Promissory Notes (15% Notes) is payable monthly.
Certain holders of the 15% promissory notes sold the notes to third parties in 2008 and 2009,
and the Company induced conversions of $100,000 and $300,000 of these notes in 2008 and 2009,
respectively, by issuing shares of its common stock. The stock was valued on the date of the
transaction, the debt for each note was extinguished and the difference was recorded as interest
expense of $248,000 and $88,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively.
Also during 2008 the Company negotiated extensions of various 15% Notes in exchange for
115,000 shares of common stock representing $99,000 of interest expense. Noncash interest expense
of $92,000 and $9,000 was recognized in 2008 and 2009, respectively.
Bank Loans
At December 31, 2008 the Company had unsecured loans of $200,000 and $100,000 from Branch
Banking and Trust Company (BB&T) (formerly Colonial Bank, N.A.) under a loan agreement. In 2009
the maturity of the $200,000 loan was extended, resulting in its being classified as long term at
December 31, 2009. The $100,000 loan is classified as current, has a due date of October 26, 2010
and bears interest at 4.83%. As a condition to making the loans, the bank received Certificates of
Deposit for $100,000 and $200,000 from the Companys Chief Executive and Financial Officer, David
H. Fater, as standby collateral. As consideration for this
F - 17
Table of Contents
standby collateral, the Companys Board of Directors authorized (i) the reimbursement of
Mr. Faters out-of-pocket cash costs associated with this transaction, (ii) the Companys receipt
of interest from the Certificates of Deposit as an offset to the Companys interest expense, and
(iii) the monthly issuance of 1,092 shares of the Companys common stock.
Mr. Fater received 13,104 and 14,196 shares of the Companys common stock in 2008 and 2009,
respectively, related to these bank loans.
Other Notes Payable
In September 2008 the Company converted a $100,000 account payable to an unsecured 10%
promissory note due in September 2009. In September 2009 the holder of the note sold it to an
investor. The Company induced conversion of the note by issuing 200,000 shares of its common stock
to the investor. The stock was valued on the date of the transaction, the debt for the note was
extinguished and $79,000 of interest expense was recorded.

8% Convertible Notes
During the period from May 1, 2009 through September 17, 2009 the Company sold 8% Convertible
Notes (8% Notes). The 8% Notes are due two years from date of issue and are convertible into
common stock at the option of the holder any time prior to maturity. The conversion price is equal
to the lesser of 75% of the weighted average common stock price, as defined, for the three days
immediately prior to the date of the conversion notice or $1.07 per share of common stock.
The conversion rights embedded in the 8% Notes are accounted for as derivative financial
instruments because of the beneficial conversion feature embedded therein. The beneficial
conversion feature was valued at date of issuance using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing
model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.33% to 3.02%,
expected life of 2 years, expected volatility of 63% and dividend yield of zero, resulting in fair
value at date of issuance of $1,996,000 in 2009.

During 2009 certain 8% Notes were converted into common stock as provided for by terms of the
debt instrument. This resulted in a $1,083,000 realized gain to the Company, included in the amount
reported in the consolidated statement of operations as gain on derivative financial instruments,
and measured by the difference between the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature just
prior to the conversion and the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature as of the most
recent mark-to-market calculation. The beneficial conversion feature was valued at dates of
conversion using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing model with the following assumptions:
risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.04% to 3.02%, expected life of 2 years, expected volatility
of 63% and dividend yield of zero. Related unamortized discount of $1,095,000 was recognized as
interest expense as a result of the conversions.
8% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes
During the fourth quarter of 2009 the Company sold 8% Subordinated Convertible Promissory
Notes (8% Subordinated Notes) and warrants to purchase shares of the Companys common stock at
$1.00 per share (12,500 warrants were issued for each $10,000 of 8% Subordinated Notes). The 8%
Subordinated Notes are due on October 7, 2012 and are subordinated to the 8% Notes sold between May
1, 2009 and September 17, 2009. They are mandatorily convertible into shares of the Companys
common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.80 per share of common stock or 80% of
the price per share of common stock sold in a qualified funding event, defined as the sale of debt
or equity in an offering resulting in a least $3,000,000 of gross proceeds to the Company.
Until the 8% Notes have been converted by the holders or have been repaid (which shall be no
later than September 16, 2011) the holders of the 8% Subordinated Notes have no voluntary
conversion rights. Thereafter, the holders may voluntarily convert the 8% Subordinated Notes.

The conversion rights embedded in the 8% Subordinated Notes are accounted for as derivative
financial instruments because of the beneficial conversion feature embedded therein. The beneficial
conversion feature was valued at date of issuance using the Black- Scholes-Merton options pricing
model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.66% to 2.10%,
expected life of 3 years, expected volatility of 63% and dividend yield of zero, resulting in fair
value of date of issuance of $559,000 in 2009.
The warrants issued with the 8% Subordinated Notes expire 5 years from date of issuance and
were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing model with the following assumptions:
risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.66% to 2.86%, expected life of 5 years, expected volatility
of 63% and dividend yield of zero. The value of the warrants was recorded based on the relative
fair value of the principal amount of the 8% Subordinated Notes and the beneficial conversion
feature, resulting in a credit of $117,000 to additional paid-in capital.

Note 6
Preferred Stock
The Company has two classes of preferred stock: Series A Convertible Cumulative and Series B
Voting Junior Convertible Cumulative.
The Series A Convertible Cumulative preferred stock (Series A or Series A preferred stock)
yields cumulative annual dividends at an annual rate of 8%. Dividends on the Series A accrue and
compound annually on such amount from the date of issuance until paid in full or at the option of
the holder converted into additional Series A stock at $3.17 per share. At December 31, 2008 and
2009 accrued dividends payable were $243,000 and $303,000, respectively. Each share of Series A is
convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:1.
The conversion price of the Series A is subject to adjustment in certain cases to prevent dilution
using a weighted-average anti-dilution formula. The Series A preferred stock will automatically be
converted into shares of common stock upon the consummation of a Liquidation Event, which is
defined as a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
Company.
The Series A preferred stock is senior to all other outstanding capital stock and is entitled
to a liquidation preference equal to the greater of (i) the issue price per share for the Series A
plus any accrued and unpaid dividends or (ii) any accrued and unpaid dividends as of the date of
the liquidation plus the amount the holder would have received if prior to liquidation the Series A
preferred stock had been converted into common stock. At December 31, 2008 and 2009 the liquidation
preference as described for item (i) totals $691,000 and $751,000, respectively.
The Company has the right of first refusal to acquire the Series A and certain holders have
entered into an Investor Rights Agreement providing for customary drag-along and tag-along rights
in connection with a bona fide offer from a third party to acquire the Company. Furthermore,
pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, one of the holders has the right to designate one
nonvoting observer to the Board of Directors.
The Series B Voting Junior Convertible Cumulative preferred stock (Series B or Series B
preferred stock) yields cumulative annual dividends at an annual rate of 8%. Dividends on the
Series B accrue and compound annually on such amount from the date of issuance. At December 31,
2008 and 2009 accrued dividends payable were $191,000 and $530,000, respectively. Each share of
Series B preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at
a conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.80 or 80% of the price per share of any common stock
sold in a Qualified Financing, plus the amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares,
whether or not declared. A Qualified Financing is defined as the closing of a sale of debt or
equity in a registered offering or pursuant to a private placement resulting in at least $3,000,000
of gross proceeds to the Company. The conversion price of the Series B preferred stock is subject
to adjustment in certain cases, including dilutive issuances and the issuance of additional shares
of common stock. The Series B preferred stock will automatically be converted into shares of common
stock upon the consummation of a Liquidation Event, which is defined as a voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. The Company may, at its
option, require all holders of Series B preferred stock then outstanding to convert their shares of
Series B into shares of common stock at any time on or after: (i) the closing of a Qualified
Financing or (ii) the consummation of a Liquidation Event.
The Series B preferred stock is entitled to a liquidation preference after distribution or
payment is made to holders of the Series A equal to the greater of (i) the issue price per share
for the Series B plus any accrued and unpaid dividends or (ii) any accrued and unpaid dividends as
of the date of the liquidation plus the amount the holder would have received if prior to
liquidation the Series B preferred stock had been converted into common stock. At December 31,2008
and 2009 the liquidation preference as described for item (i) totals $4,733,000 and $5,413,000,
respectively.

In 2008 the Company issued 4,781,295 shares of Series B preferred stock, convertible into
shares of common stock, and 4,781,295 warrants to purchase common stock, sold as a unit. The Series
B and warrants are derivative financial instruments because the conversion rates embedded in the
Series B units contain down round price protection. The fair values of the Series B units were
determined at time of issuance using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the
following assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging from 3.30% to 4.25%, expected life of 5
years, expected volatility of 63% and dividend yield of zero. The calculated fair values of the
conversion options totals $2,207,000 and of the warrants totals $2,361,000.
In 2009 the Company issued 438,460 shares of Series B preferred stock, convertible into shares
of common stock, and 438,460 warrants to purchase common stock, sold as a unit. The Series B and
warrants are derivative financial instruments because the conversion rates embedded in the Series B
units contain down round price protection. The fair values of the Series B units were determined
at time of issuance using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the following
assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.87% to 3.00%, expected life of 5 years,
expected volatility of 63% and dividend yield of zero. The calculated fair values of the conversion
options totals $252,000 and of the warrants totals $228,000.
The consent of 2/3 of the holders of all Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred
stock, voting as separate classes, will be required (i) to amend, alter or repeal any provisions of
Series A preferred stock, Series B preferred stock, or the Companys Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws that materially adversely affect any of the preferences, rights, powers or privileges of
the Series A preferred stock or Series B preferred stock, respectively; (ii) to pay any dividends
on or redeem or repurchase any shares of the Companys common stock or other junior securities;
(iii) create, authorize or issue any other class or series of preferred stock on a parity with, or
having greater or preferential rights than, the Series A preferred stock or Series B preferred
stock with respect to liquidation, dividends, distribution or conversion upon a liquidation event;
(iv) merge, consolidate, sell or dispose of the Companys assets in a transaction that requires
stockholder approval; (v) declare bankruptcy, file an assignment for the benefit of creditors,
effect any judicial or voluntary winding up or dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any
similar transaction; (vi) borrow funds outside the ordinary course of business; (vii) enter into
any transaction with related parties or affiliates of the Company; and (viii) effect any judicial
or voluntary winding up or dissolution of the Company or liquidation of the business.
Note 7
Stockholders Equity
The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized with a par value of $0.0001.
The Board has the authority to issue the shares in one or more series and to fix the designations,
preferences, powers and other rights, as it deems appropriate.
The Company has 100,000,000 shares of common stock authorized with a par value of $0.0001.
Each share of common stock has one vote per share for the election of directors and all other items
submitted to a vote of stockholders. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights,
preemptive, redemption or conversion rights.
The Company has issued stock warrants to certain employees, vendors and independent
contractors. The warrants are immediately exercisable for a period of three to ten years and enable
the holders to purchase shares of the Companys common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.01
- $3.12. The fair value per warrant based on the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method ranges
from $0.31 to $4.99. The weighted average remaining contractual term for the outstanding warrants
is 3.9 years.
The cost of these warrants was treated as compensation and, accordingly, the Company recorded
expense of $251,000 and $883,000 for 2008 and 2009, respectively.
The fair value for these warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
risk-free interest rate of 2.96% in 2008 and 1.87% 3.00% in 2009; dividend yield of 0%; common
stock fair market value of $0.84 in 2008 and $0.68 in 2009, respectively; a weighted average
expected warrant life of four years; and a volatility factor of 63% for both years.

The warrants expiring in 2011 were originally issued in 2005 and expired in 2008. In the first
quarter of 2008 the warrants were extended for three years. Management calculated the deemed
dividend using the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing method with the following assumptions:
risk-free interest rate of 3.21%, expected life of two years, expected volatility of 50% and
dividend yield of zero. This yielded a value of less than $50,000, which was not reported
separately in the 2008 consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of
stockholders equity (net capital deficiency).
Note 8 Stock Option Plan
In 2002 the Companys stockholders approved the Vicor Technologies, Inc. 2002 Stock Option
Plan (the 2002 Plan), which provides for the granting of options to purchase up to
1,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock
options may be issued under the provisions of the 2002 Plan. Employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries, members of the Board of Directors, independent consultants and advisors are eligible to
participate in the 2002 Plan. The granting and vesting of options under the 2002 Plan are
authorized by the Companys Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors.

Scholes-Merton options pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free
interest rate of 5.24%, dividend yield of 0%, fair market value of $1.37 in 2007, a
weighted-average expected option life of 10 years; and a minimal volatility factor since the
Companys stock was not then actively traded on an established public market.

NOTE 9
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements.
The Company measures financial assets in three levels, based on the markets in which the
assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair
value. These levels are:
| Level 1 Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, or interest in open-end mutual funds that allow a company to sell its ownership interest back at net asset value (NAV) on a daily basis. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets, liabilities or funds. | ||
| Level 2 Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer, or broker markets, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active. | ||
| Level 3 Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, such as option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from instrument to instrument and in certain
cases the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value
hierarchy. In such cases, an instruments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Companys assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement of an instrument requires
judgment and consideration of factors specific to the instrument.
Recurring Fair Value Measurement Valuation Techniques
The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using pricing models and other
valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of
financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the
fair value of the Companys financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted
prices or pricing parameters are available will generally have a higher degree of price
transparency than financial instruments that are thinly traded or not quoted. In accordance with
ASC Topic 820, the criteria used to determine whether the market for a financial instrument is
active or inactive is based on the particular asset or liability. As a result, the valuation of
these financial instruments included significant management judgment in determining the relevance
and reliability of market information available. The Company considered the inactivity of the
market to be evidenced by several factors, including limited trading of the Companys stock since
the commencement of trading in July 2007.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Companys derivative financial instruments consist of conversion options embedded in
8% Convertible Notes, 8% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes, Series B Preferred Stock and
warrants to purchase common stock issued with preferred stock. These instruments are valued with
pricing models commonly used by the financial services industry using inputs generally observable
in the financial services industry. These models require significant judgment on the part of
management, including the inputs utilized in its pricing models. The Companys derivative financial
instruments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company estimates the fair
value of derivatives utilizing the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and the following
assumptions:

Prior to January 1, 2009 the Company used the historical prices of its common stock to
determine its volatility. Subsequently, the Company determined that the historical prices of its
common stock were not the best proxy to estimate such volatility. Effective January 1, 2009 the
Companys methodology to estimate volatility of its common stock is based on an average of
published volatilities contained in the most recent audited financial statements of other
publicly-reporting companies in industries similar to that of the Company.
Level 3 Assets and Liabilities
Level 3 liabilities include instruments whose value is determined using pricing models and for
which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. As of
December 31, 2009 instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized as Level 3
represented approximately 58% of the Companys total liabilities.
