Company Overview
 
Internal Fixation Systems, Inc ("IFS" or the “Company”) is a medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and marketing of generic orthopedic and podiatric surgical implants. The Company’s products are manufactured at our facilities located in Miami, Florida in accordance with our proprietary manufacturing processes and are used for the treatment of bone fractures such as fractures of the hand and foot.  Our cannulated screws and bone fixation devices have received FDA approval under the premarket notification (510(k) clearance) process.  Our strategy is to offer generically priced surgical implants that are equivalent in quality, design, functionality and materials to those sold by the industry’s top surgical companies. For the year ended December 31, 2009, we had net sales of $161,607 and net income of $6,014.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had net sales of $89,537 and net loss of $375,478.
 
Our customers range from large enterprises to independent surgeons and our primary customers include (i) doctors that perform surgery in their offices, (ii) surgery centers and (iii) hospitals.   At the present time, we sell our products primarily in the State of Florida.
 
We were incorporated in the State of Florida in March 2006.  Our principal offices are located at 5901 SW 74th Street, Suite 408, South Miami, Florida 33143.  Our telephone number is (305) 342-9552.

Risk Factors
 
There are significant risks involved in investing in our company. For a discussion of risk factors you should consider before buying our common stock, see “Risk Factors” beginning on page 3.
 
 
 
1

 
 
 
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk, and you should be able to bear the complete loss of your investment. You should carefully consider the risks described below, the other information in this Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference herein and the risk factors discussed in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission when evaluating our company and our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known by us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business could be harmed. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or a part of the money paid to buy our common stock.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
We have generated minimal revenue since our inception. If we fail to generate significant revenue from sales of our marketed products, we may never achieve or sustain significant profitability.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had net sales of $89,537 and net loss of $375,478 which was a decrease from the prior year comparable period when we generated net sales of $115,290. For the year ended December 31, 2009 we had net sales of $161,607 and net income of $6,014 which was a decrease from the prior year’s net sales of $192,793 and net income of $42,049.  We also expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase due to additional operational and regulatory burdens associated with operating as a public company.
 
As a result of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing medical devices, we are unable to predict the extent of any future net income if at all. Our profitability will depend on revenues from the sale of our marketed products. While we recently began marketing of our products in the United States, we may never achieve significant revenues. Therefore, we cannot provide any assurance that we will maintain profitability or that we will be able to increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
 
We have a limited operating history.
 
Because of our limited operating history, we have limited insight into the trends that may emerge and affect our business. We may make errors in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends, which could harm our business and financial condition. Any failure to maintain profitability would continue to have an adverse effect on our shareholders' equity and working capital and could result in a decline in our stock price or cause us to cease operations.
 
Our cannulated screws generate substantially all of our net revenue. If sales of our cannulated screws were to decline, our net revenue and results of operations would be adversely affected.
 
If sales of our cannulated screws or other products were to decline because of decreased demand, adverse regulatory actions, patent or trademark infringement claims, failure to protect our intellectual property, manufacturing problems or delays, pricing pressures, competitive factors or any other reason, our net revenue would be significantly impacted, which would negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and may affect our ability to continue operations. To date, substantially all of our revenue has been derived from the sale of our cannulated screws and we anticipate that our cannulated screws and bone fixation devices will account for a substantial portion of our net revenue for the foreseeable future.

The termination of our relationship with a surgical center customer in which our Chief Executive Officer had a financial interest, one of our directors continues to have a financial interest in and our Chief Financial Officer was a former employee of, could have a material adverse impact on our sales revenue.
  
If one of the surgical centers which is a substantial customer of ours were to cease doing business with us, either because our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are no longer affiliated with it, or our current director were to no longer have a financial interest in the facility or for any other reason, our sales revenue could drop significantly.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we derived $36,936 (41%) of our net sales from sales to this surgical facility.  For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we derived $75,612 (39.22%) and $92,685 (57.35%) of our net sales revenue, respectively, from this facility.
 
If we are unable to expand our sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market, sell or distribute our products, we may be unable to generate material product revenues.
 
To the extent that we enter into arrangements with third parties to perform sales and marketing or distribution services, our product revenues are likely to be lower than if we market, sell and distribute our products ourselves. There can be no assurance given that we will be able to successfully commercialize our products by expanding our internal sales and marketing capabilities. If we are unable to expand these capabilities, or it becomes too time-consuming or expensive for us to do so, we will need to contract with third parties to help us market and sell our products. Likewise, if our current distribution capabilities are unable to satisfy customer demand for our products, we will need to contract with third parties to help us perform that function. Currently, our sales and marketing efforts for our products are being coordinated primarily by our Vice President, Sales and Marketing.
 
Our reliance on single-source suppliers could harm our ability to meet demand in a timely manner or within budget.
 
Our dependence on a limited number of third-party suppliers and the challenges we may face in obtaining adequate supplies involve several risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and delivery schedules. The stainless steel used to produce our products is obtained from two different suppliers located in Indiana. We generally purchase the stainless steel through purchase orders rather than long-term supply agreements and generally do not maintain large volumes of inventory. While alternative suppliers exist and have been identified, the disruption or termination of the supply of components could cause a significant increase in the cost of these components, which could affect our operating results.
 
If we do not successfully implement our business strategy, our business and results of operations will be adversely affected.
 
We may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy. Any such failure may adversely affect our business and results of operations. For example, to implement our business strategy we need to, among other things, develop and introduce new products, provide products at prices that are lower than our competitors and achieve lower manufacturing costs through design improvements, educate health care professionals and administrators about the cost benefits of our orthopedic and podiatric implants, obtain regulatory approval and reimbursement codes for new or significantly modified products and applications and maintain effective marketing and sales efforts domestically and internationally.
 
The market opportunities that we currently focus on or expect to develop for our products may not remain or become as large as we expect or may not develop at all.
 
The growth of our business is dependent, in large part, upon the development of market opportunities for our orthopedic and podiatric implants.  We believe that there has been a shift in decision making regarding the use of medical implants from surgeons to hospital administrators.  We currently intend to market our products to hospital administrators and ambulatory surgical centers.  The market opportunities that we expect to exist may not develop as expected, or at all. If the decision making should continue to be controlled by surgeons, our marketing efforts may be misdirected and unsuccessful and the market opportunity that we thought existed with medical administrators and ambulatory surgical centers may exist to a lesser extent or may not exist at all.
 
If we are unable to successfully develop and market our products or market our existing products to a broad customer population, we will not remain competitive.
 
Our future success and our ability to increase net revenue and earnings depend, in part, on our ability to develop and market new products and market our existing products to a broad customer population. Certain medical procedures require only the use of screws such as ours for bone fixation. Other procedures require the use of plates which require specific screws to hold the plates in place. The procedures involving the use of plates are no more risky than the procedures using only screws. The use of one versus the other is based upon the location in the body of the injury and the nature of the fracture. Our current screws are not of the type that can also be used for holding the plates in place. We plan to sell such screws with the plates as a set. Generic screws cannot be used with these plates, as the screws need to be matched to very small tolerances to fit within the holes in the plates. The Company does not believe that it has any additional risks in light of its manufacture of plates in addition to screws. It currently has the manufacturing capability and staff to do both and the raw materials required for each are substantially the same. Our risk will be greater if we are  not able to manufacture the plates as we need to broaden our product offering. Other companies provide plates with their own screws and our screws would not be compatible with their plates. There is also no incentive for a hospital or surgery center to attempt to use one vendor’s screws with another’s plates. Our biggest risk in the manufacture of plates is that we may not be able to manufacture the plates needed in a timely and cost effective manner.

Our failure to develop and market new products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if any of our current or future products contain undetected errors or design defects or do not work as expected for expanded patient populations, our ability to market these products could be substantially impeded, resulting in lost net revenue, potential damage to our reputation and delays in obtaining market acceptance of these products. We cannot assure you that we will continue to successfully develop and market new or enhanced products or new applications for our existing products.
 
If we fail to educate physicians and medical administrators as to the distinctive characteristics, benefits, safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of our products, our sales will not grow.
 
 If physicians and medical administrators do not perceive our products as an attractive alternative to other products and procedures, we will not achieve significant market penetration or be able to generate significant revenues, and our business, operating results and financial condition will be harmed. Although we received regulatory clearance for our screws and fixation devices, our marketed products may not gain market acceptance unless we convince physicians and medical administrators of the benefits of our marketed products. Moreover, even if physicians and medical administrators understand the benefits of our marketed products, they still may elect not to use our products for a variety of reasons. 
 
Convincing physicians and medical administrators to use our products over those of our competitors is challenging and we may not be successful in these efforts. Accordingly, even if our devices are superior to alternative products, our success will depend on our ability to gain and maintain market acceptance for our products.
 
Because certain of the orthopedic and podiatric conditions that can be treated by our products can also be treated by similar  other medical products produced by our competitors, some of which have a longer history of use and are more widely used by the medical community, acceptance of our products depends, in large part, on our ability to educate the medical community as to the distinctive characteristics, benefits, safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of our products compared to alternative products, procedures and therapies. Physicians may be reluctant to change their medical treatment practices for a number of reasons, including:
 
•  lack of education of health care professionals and patients about the benefits of our products;
•  our inability to manufacture, market and distribute existing and future products in a cost-effective manner;
•  our inability to obtain required regulatory clearances and approvals for new products or significant modifications to existing products.
•  our lack of experience with new products; or
•  our lack of evidence supporting additional patient benefits;
 
We expect sales of our screws and fixation devices will account for the vast majority of our revenues for at least the next several years
 
We operate in a very competitive environment.
 
Certain of our competitors have substantially greater capital resources, larger customer bases, broader product lines, larger sales forces, greater marketing and management resources, larger research and development staffs and larger facilities than ours and have more established reputations with our target customers, as well as global distribution channels that may be more effective than ours. Our competitors may develop and offer technologies and products that are more effective, have better features, are easier to use, less expensive or more readily accepted by the marketplace than ours. Their products could make our technology and products obsolete or noncompetitive. Our competitors may also be able to achieve more efficient manufacturing and distribution operations than we may be able to and may offer lower prices than we could offer profitably. We may decide to alter or discontinue aspects of our business and may adopt different strategies due to business or competitive factors or factors currently unforeseen, such as the introduction by our competitors of new products or new medical technologies that would make our products obsolete or uncompetitive.
 
The medical device industry is highly competitive and characterized by rapid change resulting from technological advances and scientific discoveries. We face direct competition from Synthes USA, DePuy Orthopedics, Inc., Zimmer, Inc., Stryker Corporation, Smith & Nephew, Inc., Osteomed, L.P., OrthoPro, Inc., Vilex, Inc. and Nexa Orthopedics, Inc., and face indirect competition from several companies that offer alternative products.

In addition, consolidation in the medical device industry could make the competitive environment more difficult. The industry has recently experienced some consolidation, and there is a risk that larger companies will enter our markets. Consolidation has resulted and will likely continue to result in greater pricing pressures and the exclusion of certain suppliers from important markets as group purchasing organizations, independent delivery networks and large single accounts continue to use their market power to consolidate purchasing decisions. If a group purchasing organization excludes us from being one of their suppliers, our long-term net revenue could be adversely impacted. We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide health care industry, which may exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products
 
Our ability to operate our company effectively could be impaired if we lose members of our senior management team or other key personnel.
 
Any loss, interruption of the services of, or inability to maintain a favorable relationship with our key personnel, or consultants who provide services, could significantly reduce our ability to effectively manage our operations and meet our strategic objectives, because we may be unable to find an appropriate replacement in a timely manner.  We depend on the continued service of key managerial and manufacturing personnel, as well as our ability to continue to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. We compete for such personnel with other companies, academic institutions, government entities and other organizations.
 
We have no independent audit committee nor do we have an audit committee financial expert at this time. Our full Board of Directors functions as our audit committee and is composed of four directors who are not considered independent. This may hinder our board of directors’ effectiveness in fulfilling the functions of the audit committee.
 
Currently, we have no independent audit committee nor do we have an audit committee financial expert at this time. Our full Board of Directors functions as our audit committee and is comprised of directors who are not considered to be "independent" in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. An independent audit committee plays a crucial role in the corporate governance process, assessing the Company's processes relating to its risks and control environment, overseeing financial reporting, and evaluating internal and independent audit processes. The lack of an independent audit committee may prevent the board of directors from being independent from management in its judgments and decisions and its ability to pursue the committee's responsibilities without undue influence. We may have difficulty attracting and retaining directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified, independent directors, the management of our business could be compromised. In addition, no one on our board of directors is considered to be a “financial expert” such that none of the directors have the education or experience of being a chief financial officer.
 
We conduct substantially all of our operations at our facilities located in Miami, Florida, and any fire, explosion, violent weather conditions or other unanticipated events affecting our facilities could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Any disruption or other unanticipated events affecting our facilities and therefore our sales, manufacturing, warehousing, research and development and administrative activities would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We conduct all of our manufacturing and research and development activities, as well as most of our sales, warehousing and administrative activities, at our facilities in Miami, Florida. Our facilities are subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to unanticipated events, such as fires, explosions or violent weather conditions. These facilities and the manufacturing equipment that we use to produce our products would be difficult to replace or repair and could require substantial lead-time to do so. For example, if we were unable to utilize our existing manufacturing facility, the use of any new facility would need to be approved by the FDA, which would result in significant production delays. We may also in the future experience plant shutdowns or periods of reduced production as a result of regulatory issues, equipment failure or delays in deliveries. We do not carry insurance for damage to our property and the disruption of our business.  Therefore, any such catastrophe would require us to use existing funds, if any, to replace damaged manufacturing equipment and other equipment at our facilities.
 
We could become subject to product liability claims that could be expensive, divert management’s attention and harm our business.
 
Our business exposes us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical devices. We may be held liable if our products cause injury or death or are found otherwise unsuitable or defective during usage. Because our products are designed to be used to perform complex surgical procedures, defects could result in a number of complications, some of which could be serious and could harm or kill patients. The adverse publicity resulting from any of these events could cause physicians or hospitals to review and potentially terminate their relationships with us.
 
The medical device industry has historically been subject to extensive litigation over product liability claims. A product liability claim, regardless of its merit or eventual outcome, could result in significant legal defense costs. Although we maintain product liability insurance, the coverage is subject to deductibles and limitations, and may not be adequate to cover future claims. Additionally, we may be unable to maintain our existing product liability insurance in the future at satisfactory rates or in adequate amounts. A product liability claim, regardless of its merit or eventual outcome could result in:
 
 
 
decreased demand for our marketed products;
 
 
 
injury to our reputation;
 
 
 
diversion of management’s attention;
 
 
 
significant costs of related litigation;
 
 
 
5

 
 
 
 
payment of substantial monetary awards by us;
 
 
 
product recalls or market withdrawals;
 
 
 
a change in the design, manufacturing process or the indications for which our marketed products may be used;
 
 
 
loss of revenue; and
 
 
 
an inability to commercialize product candidates.
 
If we do not effectively manage our growth, we may be unable to successfully develop, market and sell our products.
 
Our future revenue and operating results will depend on our ability to manage the anticipated growth of our business. In order to achieve our business objectives, we must continue to grow. However, continued growth presents numerous challenges, including:
 
 
 
implementing appropriate operational and financial systems and controls;
 
 
 
expanding our assembly capacity and increasing production through third parties;
 
 
 
expanding our sales and marketing infrastructure and capabilities;
 
 
 
improving our information systems;
 
 
 
identifying, attracting and retaining qualified personnel in our areas of activity; and
 
 
 
hiring, training, managing and supervising our personnel.
 
We cannot be certain that our systems, controls, infrastructure and personnel will be adequate to support our future operations. Any failure to effectively manage our growth could impede our ability to successfully develop, market and sell our products and our business will be harmed.
 
The Company’s inability to maintain adequate working relationships with healthcare professionals could have a negative impact on the Company’s future operating results.
 
If the Company is unable to maintain close working relationships with respected physicians and medical personnel in hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers and universities who assist in product research and development, our ability to market and sell new and improved products could decrease and future operating results could be unfavorably affected.  The Company continues to place emphasis on the development of proprietary products and product improvements to complement and expand our existing product lines.
 
If we do not introduce new products in a timely manner, our products may become obsolete over time, customers may not buy our products and our revenue and profitability may decline.
 
Demand for our products may change, in certain cases, in ways we may not anticipate because of:
 
• 
evolving customer needs;
• 
changing demographics;
• 
slowing industry growth rates;
• 
declines in the reconstructive implant market;
• 
the introduction of new products and technologies;
• 
evolving surgical philosophies; and
• 
evolving industry standards.
 
Without the timely introduction of new products and enhancements, our products may become obsolete over time. If that happens, our revenue and operating results would suffer. The success of our new product offerings will depend on several factors, including our ability to:
 
 
6

 
 
• 
properly identify and anticipate customer needs;
• 
commercialize new products in a timely manner;
• 
manufacture and deliver instruments and products in sufficient volumes on time;
• 
differentiate our offerings from competitors’ offerings;
• 
achieve positive clinical outcomes for new products;
• 
satisfy the increased demands by healthcare payors, providers and patients for shorter hospital stays, faster post-operative recovery and lower-cost procedures;
• 
innovate and develop new materials, product designs and surgical techniques; and
• 
provide adequate medical education relating to new products.
 
In addition, new materials, product designs and surgical techniques that we develop may not be accepted quickly, in some or all markets, because of, among other factors:
 
• 
entrenched patterns of clinical practice;
• 
the need for regulatory clearance; and
• 
uncertainty with respect to third-party reimbursement.
 
Moreover, innovations generally require a substantial investment in research and development before we can determine their commercial viability and we may not have the financial resources necessary to fund the production. In addition, even if we are able to successfully develop enhancements or new generations of our products, these enhancements or new generations of products may not produce revenue in excess of the costs of development and they may be quickly rendered obsolete by changing customer preferences or the introduction by our competitors of products embodying new technologies or features.
 
We may incur additional indebtedness from time to time to finance research and development, including clinical trials, acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances or for other purposes.
 
We may incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. If we incur additional debt above the levels currently in effect, the risks associated with our leverage would increase.  If we were to incur additional debt our debt to equity ratio would increase, our working capital ratio would decrease if we raised short term debt and our debt to asset ratio would decrease regardless of whether the debt were long or short term. Such changes in these ratios could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital.
 
Our obligations under one of our notes payables are secured by substantially all of our assets.
 
As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding notes payable with gross principal balances of $1,090,358 (exclusive of $118,666 of amortization of discounts that is reflected in the financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010). Of such amount, $146,500 was due December 15, 2010 and has been paid, $100,000 is due on a note issued to our Chief Executive Officer which is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company; however if the Company is not a public company by April 30, 2011, the note is payable by May 15, 2011.  As of September 30, 2010 $107,843 was remaining on the $125,000 note issued to our Chief Executive Officer, the maturity of which note was extended to April 30, 2011, $100,000 which is secured by a lien on all of our assets was due on December, 2010 and the maturity date was extended to  June 15, 2011, $498,000  of promissory notes were exchanged for  convertible debentures with call features upon the Company completing an offering with proceeds that exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or selling a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of convertible notes and payable December 1, 2014 if not converted earlier, and $138,015 is due in monthly installments expiring in April 2014. These notes bear interest at rates ranging from 5% per annum to 9% per annum.  One of the notes ($100,000 issued to our Chief Executive Officer) is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $.20 per share upon a transaction where we merge with, are acquired by or become a publicly traded company.
 
If we become insolvent or are liquidated, or if repayment of any of our outstanding loans is accelerated or we cannot repay such indebtedness when due, the lenders will be entitled to exercise the remedies available to a secured lender under applicable law and the applicable agreements and instruments, including the right to foreclose on substantially all of our assets.

We may need to raise additional capital in the future, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.
 
Notes in the aggregate principal amount of, $146,500 were due December 15, 2010 and have been paid, $100,000 is due on a note issued to our Chief Executive Officer which is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company; however if the Company is not a public company by April 30, 2011, the note is payable by May 15, 2011.  As of September 30, 2011 $107,843 was remaining on the $125,000 note issued to our Chief Executive Officer, the maturity of which note was extended to April 30, 2011, $100,000 which is secured by a lien on all of our assets was due December 2010 and the maturity date was extended to is June 15, 2011, $498,000  of promissory notes were exchanged for convertible debentures with call features upon the Company completing an offering with proceeds that exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or selling a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of convertible notes and are payable December 1, 2014 if not converted earlier, and $138,015 is due in monthly installments expiring in April 2014. If we are unable to access additional capital on terms acceptable to us, we may not be able to fully implement our business strategy, which may limit the future growth and development of our business. We may require significant additional debt and equity financing in order to implement our business strategy. In particular, our capital requirements depend on many factors, including the amount of expenditures on research and development and intellectual property, new product development and the cash required to service our debt. To the extent that our existing or future capital is insufficient to meet these requirements and cover any losses, we will need to refinance all or a portion of our existing debt, raise additional funds through financings, or curtail our growth or reduce our costs. Our ability to raise additional capital will likely depend on, among others, our performance, our prospects, our level of indebtedness and market conditions. Any additional equity or debt financing, if available at all, may be on terms that are not favorable to us. The recent global economic crisis and related tightening of credit markets has made it more difficult and more expensive to raise additional capital. Equity financings could result in dilution to our shareholders, and equity or debt securities issued in future financings may have rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to those of our common stock. If our need for capital arises because of significant losses, the occurrence of these losses may make it more difficult for us to raise the necessary capital.
 
Risks Relating to Regulation
 
Demand for our products may decrease if reimbursement by governmental or other third-party payers is reduced or unavailable in the future.
 
Demand for our products is partially dependent on whether the hospital or ambulatory surgical center will receive reimbursement from various third-party payers, such as governmental programs (e.g. , Medicare and Medicaid), private insurance plans and managed-care plans. We anticipate that our products will be purchased primarily by hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers, which bill various third-parties, including governmental healthcare programs, such as Medicare, and private insurance plans, for procedures in which our marketed products will be used. Reimbursement is a significant factor considered by hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers in determining whether to acquire new medical devices such as our marketed products. Therefore, our ability to successfully commercialize our products depends significantly on the availability of coverage and reimbursement from these third-party payors. Medicare pays hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers a prospectively determined amount for inpatient operating costs.
 
At this time, we do not know if hospitals or ambulatory surgical centers will consider third-party reimbursement levels adequate to cover the cost of our products. Furthermore, we do not know if physicians will consider third-party reimbursement levels adequate to compensate them for performing the procedures in which our products are used. Failure by hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers and physicians to receive an amount that they consider to be adequate reimbursement for procedures in which our marketed products are used will deter them from purchasing or using our marketed products and limit our sales growth.
 
The availability of reimbursement affects which products customers purchase and the prices they are willing to pay. Reimbursement varies from country to country and can significantly impact the acceptance of new products. Our cannulated screws currently qualify for reimbursement under Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance programs in the U.S. Congress recently passed, and on March 23, 2010, President Obama signed into law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and the Health Care and Education and Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “health care reform laws”), which cause substantial changes to the existing system for paying for health care in the U.S.
 
While the health care reform laws do not directly prohibit or reduce reimbursement for our products, the laws grant various governmental agencies the authority to monitor health care reimbursement by governmental payers and implement cost-containment measures in order to reduce the overall cost of health care items and services over the next ten years. If legislative or administrative changes to U.S. or international reimbursement practices reduce reimbursement for our products, or if future products that we develop do not ultimately qualify for reimbursement, we may experience an adverse impact on demand for such products and the prices that customers are willing to pay for them. This, in turn, would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
 
8

 
 
If third-party payors deny coverage or reimbursement for procedures using our products, our revenues and prospects for profitability will suffer.
 
Notwithstanding its regulatory clearance in the United States, third-party payors may deny coverage or reimbursement if the payor determines that the use of our  products are unnecessary, inappropriate, experimental, not cost-effective, or is used for a non-approved indication. In addition, no uniform policy of coverage and reimbursement for medical technology exists among third-party payors. Therefore, coverage and reimbursement for medical technology can differ significantly from payor to payor. Any denial of coverage or reimbursement for procedures using our products could have an adverse effect on our business, financial results and prospects for profitability.
 
Our products could be subject to exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other government programs if we do not comply with all applicable standards for reimbursement.
 
In order to continue receiving reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid, we must show on a periodic basis that we comply with numerous Medicare supplier standards. These standards generally relate to our methods for filling orders, overseeing delivery of equipment, responding to questions and complaints, maintaining and repairing rental equipment, complying with state and federal licensure and regulatory requirements, honoring product warranties, maintaining a physical address, and maintaining appropriate liability insurance.
 
Health care legislative or administrative changes may result in cost-containment measures that restrict third-party payer reimbursement practices or otherwise put downward pressure on the price of our products.
 
Major third-party payors for hospital services in the United States continue to work to contain health care costs. The introduction of cost-containment incentives, combined with closer scrutiny of health care expenditures by governmental agencies, private health insurers and employers, has resulted in increased discounts and contractual adjustments to hospital and ambulatory surgical center charges for services performed and products used. The focus on reducing health care costs will likely become even more prevalent in the U.S. due to the health care reform laws’ extension of medical benefits to those who currently lack insurance coverage, as such measures will be funded, in part, through cost-containment efforts.
 
While some of these savings may come from realizing greater efficiencies in delivering care, improving the effectiveness of preventive care and enhancing the overall quality of care, much of the cost savings may come from reducing the cost of care.
 
Cost of care could be reduced by lowering the level of reimbursement for medical services or products (including products manufactured and marketed by us), or by restricting coverage (and, thereby, utilization) of medical services or products. If payers reduce the amount of reimbursement for a product, it may cause groups or individuals prescribing the product to discontinue use of the type of treatment offered by the product, to substitute lower cost products or to seek additional price related concessions. In either case, a reduction in the utilization of, or reimbursement for, our products could have a materially adverse impact on our financial performance.
 
Our financial performance may be adversely affected by medical device tax provisions in the health care reform laws.
 
The U.S. health care reform laws impose an excise tax on medical device manufacturers in order to offset, in part, the government’s cost of insuring additional individuals. Beginning in 2013, a new section of the tax code will establish an excise tax on all sales of medical devices equal to 2.3% of the price of the device. If efforts to repeal this tax are not successful, and if our products are subject to such tax, the additional expense would adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.
 
If we fail to comply with the U.S. Federal Anti-Kickback Statute or similar state and foreign anti-fraud laws, we could be subject to criminal and civil penalties and exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental programs.
 
A provision of the U.S. Social Security Act, commonly referred to as the U.S. Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, prohibits the offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration in return for referring, ordering, leasing, purchasing or arranging for or recommending the ordering, purchasing or leasing of items or services payable by Medicare, Medicaid or any other federal health care program. The Federal Anti-Kickback Statute is very broad in scope and many of its provisions have not been uniformly or definitively interpreted by existing case law or regulations. In addition, most of the states in which our products are sold in the United States have adopted laws similar to the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, and some of these laws are even broader than the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute in that their prohibitions are not limited to items or services paid for by a federal health care program but, instead, apply regardless of the source of payment. A number of states also regulate and require extensive disclosures of financial relationships between device manufacturers and physicians and other health care providers. Violations of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute or such similar state laws may result in substantial civil or criminal penalties and exclusion from participation in federal or state health care programs. In addition, many foreign governments have equivalent statutes with similar penalties.

The Federal Anti-Kickback Statute has increasingly been used as a basis for claims under the Federal False Claims Act, which imposes liability for the submission of false or fraudulent claims to the federal government. Both the Department of Justice and private whistleblowers, who are permitted to bring claims on behalf of the federal government, have successfully alleged that violations of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute cause claims to Medicare or Medicaid to be false and fraudulent on the theory that the Anti-Kickback violation precludes the party submitting the claim from truthfully asserting compliance with all applicable laws, which is a condition of payment. Medical device manufacturers have been subjected to substantial monetary sanctions as a result of False Claims Act cases.
 
All of our financial relationships with health care providers and others who provide products or services to federal health care program beneficiaries are potentially governed by the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and similar state and foreign laws. We believe our operations are in material compliance with the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Act, and similar state and foreign laws. However, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to investigations or litigation alleging violations of these laws, which could be time-consuming and costly to us, could divert management’s attention from operating our business and could prevent health care providers from purchasing our products, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, if our arrangements were found to violate the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Act, or similar state or foreign laws, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 
Our business will be subject to heightened scrutiny by governmental agencies because of new fraud detection and prevention oversight measures that are part of the health care reform laws.
 
The new health care reform laws include a number of changes to federal law and enforcement activities intended to detect and prevent fraud by medical device manufacturers and other health care providers. For example, beginning in 2013, our business will be subject to new regulations on transparency and disclosure, particularly relating to company ownership, finances and transactions with health care providers such as hospitals and physicians. Our disclosures under these regulations will be available for public inspection. As a Medicare supplier, we may also be subject to screening requirements, such as licensure checks, unscheduled and unannounced site visits, database checks and other screening measures if certain government agencies determine there to be a risk of fraud, waste or abuse by suppliers of medical devices. These screening procedures will not apply until 2012, unless we are required to revalidate our Medicare enrollment before that time. Additionally, we may be required to implement more aggressive compliance and ethics programs and adopt stricter standards for doing business with government health care programs as a condition of our enrollment in programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. The specific requirements of the new compliance and ethics programs have yet to be determined. We will likely have to devote significant resources, including management attention and financial resources, to ensure compliance with the government’s new fraud-fighting initiatives. Although these new oversight measures are not effective immediately, we must begin implementing policies now in order to ensure that we satisfy our obligations as of the effective date. If we fail to meet the new fraud prevention and detection standards, we may be excluded from participating in government health care programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. If we are unable to participate in government reimbursement programs, there will be a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 
Our business will be harmed if we fail to obtain necessary clearances or approvals to market our medical devices.
 
Our products are classified as medical devices and are subject to extensive regulation in the United States by the FDA and other federal, state and local authorities. Similar regulatory review, clearance and approval processes also exist in foreign countries in which our products are marketed. These regulations relate to product design, development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, sale, promotion, distribution, import, export and shipping. Although our cannulated bone screw and metallic bone fastener have received FDA clearance under the premarket notification (510(k) clearance process), we would not be permitted to market a new medical device, or a new use of, or claim for, or significant modification to, our existing products in the United States, without first obtaining either approval of a Premarket Approval Application (“PMA”) or 510(k) clearance from the FDA or demonstrating that an exemption applies. Our cannulated screws have been approved for use in the treatment of bone fractures, such as fractures of the tarsals and metatarsals, and for metatarsals and phalangeal osteotomies and arthrodesis of the hand and foot.   Our bone fixation devices are approved for use in the fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstruction, as guide pins for insertion of other implants or implantation through the skin so that traction may be applied to the skeletal system and the approval specifically states it is not intended for spinal fixation.  The PMA approval process, commonly used for riskier devices such as those which support or sustain life, requires an applicant to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the device based, in part, on data obtained in clinical trials. The PMA approval process and clinical trials can be expensive and lengthy and entail significant user fees. In the 510(k) clearance process, the FDA must determine that the proposed device is “substantially equivalent” to a device legally on the market, known as a “predicate” device, with respect to intended use, technology and safety and efficacy, in order to clear the proposed device for marketing. Clinical data is sometimes required to support substantial equivalence. The PMA approval pathway is much more costly and uncertain than the 510(k) clearance process. It generally takes from one to three years, or even longer, from the time the PMA is submitted to the FDA until an approval is obtained. The 510(k) clearance process usually takes from three to 12 months, but it can take longer.
 
 
10

 
 
There is no guarantee that the FDA will grant 510(k) clearance or PMA approval to new or modified products that we develop in the future.
 
Delays in receipt or failures to receive desired marketing clearances or approvals from the FDA or other federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities may adversely affect our ability to market our products and may have a significant adverse effect on our overall business. Moreover, the value of existing clearances or approvals can be eroded if safety or efficacy problems develop.
 
Modifications to our products may require new regulatory approvals or clearances or may require us to recall or cease marketing our modified products until approvals or clearances are obtained.
 
Modifications to our products may require new approvals or clearances in the United States and abroad, such as PMA approvals or 510(k) clearances in the United States. The FDA requires device manufacturers to initially make a determination of whether or not a modification requires a new approval, supplement or clearance. A manufacturer may determine that a modification does not significantly affect safety or efficacy or does not represent a major change in its intended use, so that no new U.S. or foreign approval or clearance is necessary. We have made modifications that we determined do not require approval or clearance. However, the FDA can review a manufacturer’s decision, including any of our decisions, and may disagree. If the FDA disagrees and requires new approvals or clearances for the modifications, we may be required to recall and to stop marketing our products as modified, which could require us to redesign our products and harm our operating results. In these circumstances, we may also be subject to significant enforcement actions.
 
If we determine that a modification to an FDA-cleared device could significantly affect its safety or efficacy, or would constitute a major change in its intended use, then we must obtain a new PMA or PMA supplement approval or 510(k) clearance. Where we determine that modifications to our products require a new PMA or PMA supplemental approval or 510(k) clearance, we may not be able to obtain those additional approvals or clearances for the modifications or additional indications in a timely manner, or at all. Delays in obtaining required future approvals or clearances would adversely affect our ability to introduce new or enhanced products in a timely manner, which in turn would harm our future growth.
 
We may fail to comply with continuing post-market regulatory requirements of the FDA and other federal and state authorities and become subject to substantial penalties, or our products may subsequently prove to be unsafe, forcing us to recall or withdraw such products from the market.
 
Even after product clearance or approval, we must comply with continuing regulation by the FDA and other federal or state authorities, including the FDA’s Quality System Regulation requirements, which obligate manufacturers to adhere to stringent design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during the design and manufacture of a device. We are also subject to medical device reporting regulations in the United States and abroad. For example, we are required to report to the FDA if our products may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunction in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. We must report corrections to the FDA where the correction was initiated to reduce a risk to health posed by the device or to remedy a violation of the U.S. Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act caused by the device that may present a risk to health, and we must maintain records of other corrections. The FDA closely regulates promotion and advertising, and our promotional and advertising activities may come under scrutiny. If any medical device reports we file with the FDA regarding death, serious injuries or malfunctions indicate or suggest that one of our products presents an unacceptable risk to patients, including when used off-label by physicians, we may be forced to recall our product or withdraw it from the market.
 
Any failure to comply with continuing regulation by the FDA or other federal or state authorities could result in enforcement action that may include regulatory letters requesting compliance action, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory clearances or approvals, product recall, modification or termination of product marketing, entering into a consent decree, seizure and detention of products, paying significant fines and penalties, criminal prosecution and similar actions that could limit product sales, delay product shipment and harm our profitability. Any of these actions could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
 
11

 
 
The possibility of non-compliance with manufacturing regulations raises uncertainties with respect to our ability to manufacture our products.  Our failure to meet strict regulatory requirements could require us to pay fines, incur other costs or even close our facilities.
 
The FDA and other federal and state regulatory authorities require that our products be manufactured according to rigorous standards, including, but not limited to, Quality System Regulations, Good Manufacturing Practices and International Standards Organization, or ISO, standards. These federal and state regulatory authorities conduct periodic audits of our facilities and our processes to monitor our compliance with applicable regulatory standards. If a regulatory authority finds that we fail to comply with the appropriate regulatory standards, it may require product validation, new processes and procedures or shutdown of our manufacturing operations. It may impose fines on us or delay or withdraw clearances or other regulatory approvals. If a regulatory authority determines that our non-compliance is severe, it may impose other penalties including limiting our ability to secure approvals or clearances for new products. In addition, many of the improvements we make to our manufacturing process must first be approved or cleared by the FDA and other federal and state regulatory authorities. Our failure to obtain the necessary approvals and clearances may limit our ability to improve the way in which we manufacture our products.
 
Risks Relating to Our Intellectual Property and Potential Litigation
 
We may in the future become subject to claims that our products violate the patent or intellectual property rights of others, which could be costly and disruptive to us.
 
We operate in an industry that is susceptible to significant patent litigation, and in recent years, it has been common for companies in the medical device industry to aggressively challenge the rights of other companies to prevent the marketing of new or existing devices. As a result, we or our products may become subject to patent infringement claims or litigation. Further, one or more of our applications may become subject to interference proceedings declared by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or USPTO, or the foreign equivalents thereof to determine the priority of claims to inventions. The defense of intellectual property suits, USPTO interference proceedings or the foreign equivalents thereof, as well as related legal and administrative proceedings, are both costly and time consuming and may divert management’s attention from other business concerns. Any negative outcome could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and could:
 
• subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, including treble damages;
• require disputed rights to be licensed from a third party for royalties that may be substantial;
• require us to cease using such technology; or
• prohibit us from selling certain of our products.
 
If our intellectual property rights do not adequately protect our products, we may lose market share to our competitors and be unable to operate our business profitably.
 
Our intellectual property is essential to our business, and our ability to compete effectively with other companies depends on the proprietary nature of our technologies. Our manufacturing methods enables  us to produce our products in a cost and time efficient manner, allowing us to pass on our savings to our customers and charge reduced prices to our customers for our products.  We do not have patent protection for our manufacturing method or products.  We rely upon trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovations and licensing opportunities to develop, maintain and strengthen our competitive position.  Although we have entered into confidentiality agreements with our employees and independent contractors, there can be no assurance that that such agreements can fully protect our intellectual property, be enforced in a timely manner or that any such employees or consultants will not violate their agreements with us.
 
 
12

 
 
Furthermore, we may have to take legal action in the future to protect our trade secrets or know-how, or to defend them against claimed infringement of the rights of others. Any legal action of that type could be costly and time-consuming to us, and we cannot assure you that such actions will be successful. The invalidation of key proprietary rights which we own or unsuccessful outcomes in lawsuits to protect our intellectual property may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
If we cannot adequately protect our intellectual property rights, our competitors may be able to compete more directly with us, which could adversely affect our competitive position and, as a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
 
Risks Relating to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock
 
Because there has not been a public market for our common stock and our stock price may be volatile, investors may not be able to resell their shares.
 
Prior to this offering, you could not buy or sell our common stock publicly. We cannot predict the extent to which investors’ interests will lead to an active trading market for our common stock or whether the market price of our common stock will be volatile following this offering. If an active trading market does not develop, investors may have difficulty selling any of our common stock that they buy.
 
If equity research analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they issue unfavorable research or downgrade our common stock, the price of our common stock could decline.
 
The trading market for our common stock will rely in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts. Equity research analysts may elect not to provide research coverage of our common stock, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. If equity research analysts do provide research coverage of our common stock, the price of our common stock could decline if one or more of these analysts downgrade our common stock or if they issue other unfavorable commentary about us or our business. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company, we could lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.
 
Future sales of our common stock by our existing shareholders could cause our stock price to decline.
 
If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decrease significantly. The perception in the public market that our shareholders might sell shares of our common stock could also depress the market price of our common stock.
 
 A decline in the price of shares of our common stock might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities, and may cause you to lose part or all of your investment in our shares of common stock.
 
Our directors and executive officers will continue to have substantial control over us and could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including changes of control.
 
Based on their beneficial ownership as of September 30, 2010, we anticipate that our executive officers and directors and entities affiliated with them will, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 74.12% of our outstanding common stock following the completion of this offering, Our executive officers, directors and affiliated entities, if acting together, would be able to control or influence significantly all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other significant corporate transactions. These shareholders may have interests that differ from those of our investors, and they may vote in a way with which our investors disagree and that may be adverse to the interests of our investors. The concentration of ownership of our common stock may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and may affect the market price of our common stock. This concentration of ownership of our common stock may also have the effect of influencing the completion of a change in control that may not necessarily be in the best interests of all of our shareholders.

Dr. Dresnick and Ms. Cattabriga do not currently devote all of their time to our Company.
 
 
13

 

Acting as our President and Chief Executive Officer is not the sole business activity of Dr. Dresnick, nor is Ms. Cattabriga’s sole business activity that of acting as our Chief Financial Officer.  Each of Dr. Dresnick and Ms. Cattabriga have complete discretion to decide how much time they will devote to our business.
 
Various factors may inhibit a takeover that shareholders consider favorable.
 
Provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, applicable provisions of Florida law and various other factors may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our shareholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. The factors that may discourage takeover attempts or make them more difficult include:
 
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of the Charter and of Florida Law
 
Our Articles of Incorporation and the Florida Business Corporation Act contain provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt at a price which many shareholders may find attractive. The existence of these provisions which are described below could limit the price that investors might otherwise pay in the future for shares of our common stock.
 
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
 
Stock Issuance.     Our board of directors, without shareholder approval, has the authority under our articles of incorporation, as amended, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our stock. As a result, common stock could be issued quickly and easily to delay or prevent a change of control or make removal of management more difficult. This provision may significantly affect another person or entity’s interest in acquiring a substantial or controlling position in shares of our common stock and enhance the ability of our board of directors to take action in light of such an acquisition by a third party.
 
Blank Check Preferred Stock .    Our Articles of Incorporation do not specify the type of stock that is authorized.  Therefore, our board of directors, without shareholder approval, has the authority under our articles of incorporation, as amended, to issue preferred stock with rights superior to the rights of the holders of common stock. As a result, preferred stock could be issued quickly and easily, could impair the rights of holders of common stock and could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change of control or make removal of management more difficult.
 
Florida Anti-Takeover Statute
 
As a Florida corporation, we are subject to certain anti-takeover provisions that apply to public corporations under Florida law. Pursuant to Section 607.0901 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, or the Florida Act, a publicly held Florida corporation may not engage in a broad range of business combinations or other extraordinary corporate transactions with an interested shareholder without the approval of the holders of two-thirds of the voting shares of the corporation (excluding shares held by the interested shareholder), unless:
 
 
 
the transaction is approved by a majority of disinterested directors before the shareholder becomes an interested shareholder;
 
 
 
the interested shareholder has owned at least 80% of the corporation’s outstanding voting shares for at least five years preceding the announcement date of any such business combination;
 
 
 
the interested shareholder is the beneficial owner of at least 90% of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, exclusive of shares acquired directly from the corporation in a transaction not approved by a majority of the disinterested directors; or
 
 
 
the consideration paid to the holders of the corporation’s voting stock is at least equal to certain fair price criteria.
 
An interested shareholder is defined as a person who together with affiliates and associates beneficially owns more than 10% of a corporation’s outstanding voting shares. We have not made an election in our amended Articles of Incorporation to opt out of Section 607.0901.
 
In addition, we are subject to Section 607.0902 of the Florida Act which prohibits the voting of shares in a publicly held Florida corporation that are acquired in a control share acquisition unless
(i) our board of directors approved such acquisition prior to its consummation or (ii) after such acquisition, in lieu of prior approval by our board of directors, the holders of a majority of the corporation’s voting shares, exclusive of shares owned by officers of the corporation, employee directors or the acquiring party, approve the granting of voting rights as to the shares acquired in the control share acquisition. A control share acquisition is defined as an acquisition that immediately thereafter entitles the acquiring party to 20% or more of the total voting power in an election of directors.
 
As a result of our becoming a public company, we will become subject to additional reporting and corporate governance requirements that will require additional management time, resources and expense.
 
In connection with this filing, we will become obligated to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission annual and quarterly information and other reports that are specified in the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We will also become subject to other reporting and corporate governance requirements the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, all of which will impose significant compliance and reporting obligations upon us.
 
Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to their effectiveness, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.
 
As a newly public reporting company, we will be in a continuing process of developing, establishing, and maintaining internal controls and procedures that will allow our management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, our internal controls over financial reporting if and when required to do so under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our management will be required to report on our internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404 commencing in fiscal year 2011. If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we would not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404.
 
We do not intend to declare dividends on our stock.

 Company Overview
 
Internal Fixation Systems, Inc ("IFS" or the “Company”) is a medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and marketing of generic orthopedic and podiatric surgical implants. The Company’s products are manufactured at our facilities located in Miami, Florida in accordance with our proprietary manufacturing processes and are used for the treatment of bone fractures such as fractures of the hand and foot. Our cannulated screws and bone fixation devices have received FDA approval under the premarket notification (510(k) clearance) process. Our strategy is to offer generically priced surgical implants that are equivalent in quality, design, functionality and materials to those sold by the industry’s top surgical companies.
 
Our customers range from large enterprises to independent surgeons and our primary customers include (i) doctors that perform surgery in their offices (ii) surgery centers and (iii) hospitals. To date, a substantial amount of our revenue has been derived from sales of products to surgery centers.  At the present time, we sell our products primarily in the State of Florida.
 
We were incorporated in the State of Florida in March 2006.  Our principal offices are located at 5901 SW 74th Street, Suite 408, South Miami, Florida 33143.  Our telephone number is (305) 342-9552.

History

We were incorporated in the State of Florida in March 2006.   We started offering our initial product line of 3.0/3.5/4.0 cannulated screws on April 1, 2008 in South Florida and the East Coast of Florida.
 
Existing Products
 
We manufacture and market generic orthopedic and podiatric surgical implants. We have developed our own proprietary custom programming for the CNC Swiss-Turn machines that reduces manufacturing steps and eliminates post-production processing. Specifically, we manufacture and market products that are used by orthopedic surgeons and podiatrists to provide an accurate means of setting and stabilizing fractures and for other reconstructive procedures. They are intended to aid in the healing process.
 
We currently have FDA approval to manufacture and sell cannulated screws and Kirschner wires (K-wires). Our bone fixation devices are approved for use in the fixation of bone fractures and for bone reconstruction.  K-wires are used as guide pins for insertion of other implants or implantation through the skin so that traction may be applied to the skeletal system. To date, the only products that we have sold have been our cannulated screws and K-wires.  Cannulated screws are screws that have a hollow center which allows for precise placement by way of K-wires into the desired location. Our screws are generally intended for use for fractures and surgeries of small bones, such as the hand, wrist and forefoot. Our cannulated screws have been approved for use in the treatment of bone fractures, such as fractures of the tarsals and metatarsals and for metatarsals and phalangeal osteotomies and arthrodesis of the hand and foot.  Specifically, they are intended for: (i) fractures of carpals and metacarpals; (ii) carpal and metacarpal arthrodesis; (iii) small fragments of the hand and wrist; (iv) certain metatarsal phalangeal applications; (v) metatarsal and phalangeal osteotomies; and (vi) ligament fixation.
 
Cannulated screws are classified by size according to their surgical application. We sell several different types of cannulated screws, including: (i) thirty two different lengths of 2.0mm diameter cannulated short thread screws; (ii) thirty one different lengths of 2.0 mm diameter cannulated long thread screws; (iii) twenty eight different lengths of 2.4mm diameter cannulated short thread screws; (iv) twenty six different lengths of 2.4 mm diameter cannulated long thread screws; (v) twenty six different lengths of 3.0 mm diameter cannulated short thread screws; (vi) twenty six different lengths of 3.0 mm diameter cannulated long thread screws; (vii) twenty one different lengths of 3.5mm diameter cannulated partial thread screws; (viii) twenty one different lengths of 3.5 mm diameter cannulated full thread screws; (ix) twenty one lengths 4.0mm diameter cannulated short thread screws; (x) twenty one lengths of 4.0 diameter cannulated long thread screws; (xi) thirty two different lengths of 2.4mm diameter cannulated headless short thread screws; (xii) thirty two different lengths of  2.4mm cannulated diameter headless long thread screws; (xiii) thirty one different lengths of 3.0 mm diameter cannulated headless short thread screws; (xiv) twenty nine different lengths of 3.0 mm diameter cannulated headless long thread screws; and  (xv) twenty eight different lengths of 2.0mm diameter cannulated short thread screws and twenty six different lengths of 2.0mm diameter cannulated long thread screws. We also sell several types of Kirschnerwires (stainless steel pins available in different diameters with various tips), including threaded and non-threaded for use in the fixation of fractures and skeletal traction.
 
We are currently developing for sale small cannulated screw and instrument sets, locking mini fragment plates, locking small fragment plates, and locking distal radius plates and corresponding instrument sets.  In August 2010, we submitted a Premarket Notification (510(k)) to the FDA to cover locking distal radius plate and corresponding instrument sets. We expect to receive FDA approval prior to year end and that these products will be available for sale early next year. `
  
Overview of IFS
 
Our sales strategy is to capitalize on the environment of declining reimbursements affecting the orthopedic and podiatric market place by offering high quality cost effective surgical implants that are equivalent in quality, design, functionality, and materials to the current industry “Gold Standards” whose patents have expired.  By manufacturing our own products we believe we can produce quality products inexpensively and sell the products at prices that are attractive and enable customers to balance their need for quality with pricing.  In addition, since our products are similar to those already used in the industry, our regulatory and approval costs are lower than would be for new, or novel, products first seeking FDA approval.
 
Economic Environment
 
Industry Overview
 
The orthopedic trauma market is divided into three segments- internal fixation, external fixation and long bone stimulation.  The products that we sell fall within the internal fixation segment.  This is the largest segment of the orthopedic trauma market. According to an article published in 2008 by iData Research Inc., in 2007 the market for internal fixation devices was valued at over $1.4 billion and the market value is expected to exceed $2.9 billion by 2014. More specifically, in 2007 the U.S. market for cannulated screws was valued at $191 million, a 7% increase over the previous year, and the U.S, market for cannulated screws is expected to reach $290.5 million by 2014. The Cannulated Screw Market is broken down in Small (< 4mm), Medium (4-6mm) and Large (>6mm). Our screws fall within the small screw category. The Small Cannulated Screw Market in 2007 was valued at $19 Million, and is projected to be $29 Million by 2014.

The market for cannulated screws is currently dominated by five companies, however, Synthes USA has the largest market share with almost 50% of the market.  The other four companies (DePuy Orthopedics, Inc., Zimmer, Inc., Stryker Corporation and Smith & Nephew, Inc.) account for approximately 39% of the market and various other companies comprising the rest of the market.
 
An aging population is driving growth in the orthopedic products market. Many conditions that require orthopedic surgery affect people in middle age or later in life. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, football related toe, foot and ankle injuries have been rising since 2003.  In that year there were approximately 49,000 toe, foot and ankle injuries related to football compared to 2007 which included 62,000 injuries.  As the baby boomer population ages and life expectancy increases, the elderly will represent a higher percentage of the overall population. According to a 2007 U.S. Census Bureau projection, the U.S. population aged 55 to 74 is expected to grow at approximately three times the average rate of population growth from 51 million and 18% of the population in 2007 to 76 million and 22% of the population by 2027.
 
Manufacturing Capabilities
 
Currently, all of our end products are manufactured by us in-house. We manufacture our products at our facility located in Miami, Florida. We currently sublease and occupy 2,000 square feet of manufacturing space with the capability of expanding up to 6,000 square feet. The facility sublease continues through March 2012 at a rate of $3,000 per month plus the payment of certain expenses. Currently, the stainless steel used to make our screws and plates used in the manufacturing process as well as the surgical instruments and the Kirschner wires we sell are purchased from third party vendors.
 
We currently have at our facilities two Swiss-Turn CNC Model M16 machines with bar feeders which produce screws and a Haas CNC Super Mini Milling Machine which manufactures plates. We have developed our own proprietary custom programming for the CNC Swiss-Turn machines that reduces manufacturing steps and eliminates post-production processing. We currently lease or sublease the machines that are used in our manufacturing process. 
 
We have a capital lease for one Citizen Swiss-Turn M16 and the Haas CNC Super mini Mill. The two equipment leases expire in 2014 and require payments of $62,030 for 2010, $57,258 for 2011 through and including 2013 and $35, 316 for 2104.  Payments under the lease for the Swiss-Turn Machine has been personally guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer.
 
We entered into a non-cancellable sublease agreement with a former shareholder for the commercial operating facilities as well one of the Swiss Turn CNC Machines (Manberi Citizen-Cincom, Serial # P15284). The sublease expires April 1, 2012 and requires monthly payments of $5,660.  
 
Raw Materials
 
The principal raw material used in our products is stainless steel.  We use a grade 316L stainless steel for our products which we currently obtain from two suppliers located in the State of Indiana.  We do not have a written agreement with any of our suppliers as we generally purchase the stainless steel through purchase orders rather than long-term supply agreements and therefore have no guarantees of minimum supply quantities.  We also generally do not maintain large volumes of inventory. While alternative suppliers exist and have been identified, the disruption or termination of the supply of components and component assemblies could cause a significant increase in the cost of these components, which could affect our operating results. Our dependence on a limited number of third-party suppliers and the challenges we may face in obtaining adequate supplies involve several risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and delivery schedules.
 
Customers and Marketing
 
To date, our market focus has been in the State of Florida, specifically South Florida and the East Coast of Florida, where we have sold products to: (i) doctors that perform surgery in their offices, (ii) surgery centers, and (iii) hospitals. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 approximately 3% of our revenue was derived from one doctor, 66% was derived from sixteen surgery centers and 29% was derived from seven hospitals. The balance has been derived from revenue from the performance of services. For the year ended December 31, 2009, approximately 4% of our sales were derived from two doctors, 71% was derived from fourteen surgery centers and 28% was derived from five hospitals. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we derived $36,936 (41%) of our net sales from a surgical facility in which one current shareholder, who is also a director, continues to have a financial interest. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 we derived $75,612 (39.22%) and $92,685 (57.35%) of our net sales revenue, respectively, from the same surgical facility. During 2009, in addition to the one director that had and continues to have a financial interest in such facility, our Chief Executive Officer had an investment interest in such facility and our Chief Financial Officer was employed to work at such facility. Since May 2009 our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are no longer investors in or employed by such facility.

Distribution
 
All of our sales revenue to date has been made from direct sales to customers of our cannulated screws.  We have not and do not intend to use distributors for the sale of our products and instead intend to rely upon our own internal sales force which we expect to build over time.   We currently have one full time employee, Ken West, our Vice President of Sales, who is responsible for developing and managing our sales force which is comprised of three independent contractors.  Each representative has a specific territory for which he or she is responsible for attracting new customers, providing products to customers, collecting payment information and ensuring customer satisfaction. The three regions are South Florida (Miami to Melbourne), Los Angeles and Southwest Florida ( Naples to Sarasota), Other than a confidentiality agreement, we do not have a written agreement with any of our independent sales representatives. Given sufficient capital and attractive commercial prospects we expect to expand our distribution efforts throughout the United States.  However, establishing a successful sales force will require the expenditure of substantial amounts of capital. Each representative is given a number of surgical sets (actual number determined by size of territory and usage), each of which include approximately 700 screws of different lengths and with and without heads and with short threads and long threads. This inventory is necessary to have on hand so that at the time of surgery the surgeon will have the appropriate screw in both type as well as length. Representatives will either drop off sets at facilities that call and schedule surgeries or leave sets at facilities that are of high volume and use the sets daily. Once a case is completed, the representative sends in a surgery usage report to the Company so that an invoice can be prepared and the facility is then billed.
 
Funding
 
To date, we have met our financing needs through private sale of shares of our common stock and other equity securities and loans from investors.  If our revenue from sales is not sufficient to meet our ongoing expenses we will need additional financing.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, our research and development costs were $24,000 and $16,500, respectively, all of which were included in the weighted average inventory costs and capitalized as inventory. From January 1, 2010 until September 30, 2010, our research and development costs were $6,678, and were included as a component of operating expense.  Inasmuch as we typically manufacture products that are substantially equivalent to products that have already been approved by the FDA, our research and development costs are a small percentage of our expenses.

COMPETITION
 
The medical device industry is highly competitive. We face direct competition from Synthes USA, DePuy Orthopedics, Inc., Zimmer, Inc., Stryker Corporation, Smith & Nephew, Inc., Osteomed, L.P., OrthoPro, Inc., Vilex, Inc. and Nexa Orthopedics, Inc., and face indirect competition from several companies that offer alternative products. Certain of our competitors have substantially greater capital resources, larger customer bases, broader product lines, larger sales forces, greater marketing and management resources, larger research and development staffs and larger facilities than ours and have more established reputations with our target customers, as well as global distribution channels that may be more effective than ours. Our strategy is to offer generically priced surgical implants that are equivalent in quality, design, functionality and materials to those sold by the industry’s top surgical companies at prices that are lower than those of our competitors for similar products. Inasmuch as we manufacture our own products and we have developed our own proprietary custom programming for the CNC Swiss-Turn machines used to make our current line of screws, manufacturing steps are reduced, and post-production processing steps are eliminated. Our manufacturing process is more efficient and allows us to provide products at prices which are generally lower than those of our competitors.
 
The medical device industry is characterized by rapid change resulting from technological advances and scientific discoveries. Our competitors may develop and offer technologies and products that are more effective, have better features, are easier to use, less expensive or more readily accepted by the marketplace than ours. Their products could make our technology and products obsolete or noncompetitive. Our competitors may also be able to achieve more efficient manufacturing and distribution operations than we may be able to and may offer lower prices than we could offer profitably. We may decide to alter or discontinue aspects of our business and may adopt different strategies due to business or competitive factors or factors currently unforeseen, such as the introduction by our competitors of new products or new medical technologies that would make our products obsolete or uncompetitive.
 
In addition, consolidation in the medical device industry could make the competitive environment more difficult. The industry has recently experienced some consolidation, and there is a risk that larger companies will enter our markets. Consolidation has resulted and will likely continue to result in greater pricing pressures and the exclusion of certain suppliers from important markets as group purchasing organizations, independent delivery networks and large single accounts continue to use their market power to consolidate purchasing decisions. If a group purchasing organization excludes us from being one of their suppliers, our long-term net revenue could be adversely impacted. We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide health care industry, which may exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products
 
TRADEMARKS AND PATENTS
 
We regard our trade secrets, proprietary technologies and similar intellectual property as important to our success and we rely on trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements with employees, customers and suppliers and others to protect our proprietary rights.   We do not have patent protection for our manufacturing method or products.   The steps we take to protect our proprietary rights in our intellectual property may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property.

REGULATION
 
The Company currently manufactures, markets and sells products exclusively in the United States. In the U.S., numerous laws and regulations govern all the processes by which medical devices are brought to market. These include, among others, the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations issued or promulgated thereunder. The FDA has enacted regulations that control all aspects of the development, manufacture, advertising, promotion and post market surveillance of medical products, including medical devices. In addition, the FDA controls the access of products to market through processes designed to ensure that only products that are safe and effective are made available to the public.
 
The division of the FDA responsible for orthopedic implants and other implantable devices is the Center for Devices and Radiologic Health.  Before medical devices can be sold in the United States they have to go through the FDA review process, either Pre market approval for devices that are fairly new or the 510(k) review which is designed for devices that are similar to those currently on the market.
 
All of our products fall into FDA classifications that require the submission of a Premarket Notification (510(k)) to the FDA. This process requires us to demonstrate that the device to be marketed is at least as safe and effective as, and that is, substantially equivalent to, a legally marketed device. We must submit information that supports our substantial equivalency claims. Before we can market any new device, we must receive an order from the FDA finding substantial equivalence and clearing the new device for commercial distribution in the United States. The FDA has the authority to: halt the distribution of certain medical devices; detain or seize adulterated or misbranded medical devices; or order the repair, replacement or refund of the costs of such devices. There are also certain requirements of state, local and foreign governments that we must comply with in the manufacture and marketing of our products.
 
Further, we are subject to various federal and state laws concerning healthcare fraud and abuse, including false claims laws and anti-kickback laws. These laws are administered by, among others, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services and state attorneys general. Many of these agencies have increased their enforcement activities with respect to medical device manufacturers in recent years. Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in some instances, fines, imprisonment and, within the United States, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Administration (VA) health programs.
 
Our facilities and operations are also subject to complex federal, state, local and foreign environmental and occupational safety laws and regulations, including those relating to discharges of substances in the air, water and land, the handling, storage and disposal of wastes and the clean-up of properties by pollutants. We do not expect that the ongoing costs of compliance with these environmental requirements will have a material impact on our consolidated earnings, capital expenditures or competitive position.
 
Employees
 
Prior to October 2010, we had no full time employees and seven people were paid as consultants. One of the consultants, the current Vice President of Sales, earned commissions on sales of products. We currently have 7 full time employees and expect to hire approximately eight employees over the next 12 months, which will cause us to incur additional costs.
 
Property
 
Our principal office is located at 5901 SW 74th Street, Suite 408, South Miami, Florida 33143. This space consists of approximately 1,100 square feet.   We lease this space on a month-to-month basis at a price of $1,900 per month. We believe these facilities are adequate to serve our present needs. Our products are manufactured at our facility located at 10100 NW 116th Way, Suite 18, Miami, Florida. We currently occupy 2,000 square feet of manufacturing space with the capability of expanding up to 6,000 square feet. We entered into a non-cancellable sublease agreement with a former shareholder for the commercial operating facilities.  The facility sublease continues through March 2011 at a rate of $3,000 per month plus the payment of certain expenses.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
We are not a party to any material legal proceedings.
 
 
19

 
 
We may occasionally become subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. It is impossible for us to predict with any certainty the outcome of pending disputes, and we cannot predict whether any liability arising from pending claims and litigation will be material in relation to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
 
 
We intend to have our common stock listed on the OTC Bulletin Board. Our common stock is not currently traded on any market or securities exchange and there has been no public market for our common stock. No assurance can be given that our common stock will trade on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other exchange
 
Holders
 
As of September 30, 2010, there were approximately 73 holders of record of our common stock.
 
Dividends
 
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock to date and do not anticipate that we will be paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Any payment of cash dividends on our common stock in the future will be dependent upon the amount of funds legally available, our earnings, if any, our financial condition, our anticipated capital requirements and other factors that the Board of Directors may think are relevant. We do not anticipate having any earnings from which to pay dividends in the foreseeable future and currently intend to follow a policy of retaining all of our earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of our business and, therefore, do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
 
Financial Operations Overview
 
We have only recently commenced operations and have generated only minimal revenues.  Our principal business activities to date have been the sale of our cannulated screws.  From our inception to December 31, 2009, we have retained earnings of $24,222. 
 
Since inception, we have financed our operations from the sale of common stock and other securities and loans from investors and related parties. If our anticipated sales for the next few months do not meet our expectations, our existing resources will not be sufficient to meet our cash flow requirements for the next few months. Furthermore, if our expenses exceed our anticipations, we will need additional funds to implement our business plan. We will not be able to fully establish our business if we do not have adequate working capital and if we do not have adequate working capital we may need to raise additional funds, whether through a stock offering or otherwise.
We may need to raise additional money in order to establish a sales network for the manufacture and distribution of our products and to advertise such products. In addition, we will need to hire personnel to run our day to day operations. We plan to obtain the necessary funds through a combination of revenue derived from sales of products and if needed, an offering of our securities. If we are unable to obtain this additional working capital, or if we encounter unexpected expenses, we may not have enough working capital to implement our business plan.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants discuss their most “critical accounting policies” in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
 
Accounting 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 the 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Accounting estimates are formulated by using past historical data, including invoices, purchase orders, and comparable alternative costs when available. Use of this information is subject to change due to the uncertainty attached to the underlying estimates and assumption since historical data is not necessarily indicative of actual results. We have had had success in the use of accounting estimates in the past without any material modifications required. Where estimates have differed from actual results, the difference has been recorded in the current period of the financial statements.
 
 
22

 
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance is based on management's estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that will actually be collected. This estimate will affect  Net Accounts Receivables and thus makes this policy a critical accounting policy. Estimates are determined on a client by client basis based upon the age of the receivable as well as any additional information known about the customer that would make the estimate higher or lower. This estimate is evaluated monthly as customer situations change frequently. As the company grows, the ability of the Company to accurately determine the allowance for doubtful accounts may change which can have a beneficial effect on the financial statements or a deleterious effect.
 
Inventory
 
Our inventory consists primarily of raw materials, manufactured and purchased finished goods available for sale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market determined by the weighted average method.  Inventory that we estimate will not be used within the next business cycle is considered non-current inventory.
 
Components capitalized in the weighted average cost method include contract labor, rent, raw material purchases, insurance, depreciation & amortization, drawing fees, repairs and maintenance and property tax expenses. Accounting estimates are used to accrue expenses incurred in one accounting period but paid in another accounting period. Accounting estimates primarily are based on contract labor costs and estimated periodic insurance and property tax expense associated with production equipment.
 
Since the Company’s inventory is the main source of generating sales revenue, it is considered a critical accounting policy. The Company can not generate revenue without having appropriate levels of inventory on hand.
 
Management’s estimates used to determine inventory are based on assumptions, methods and other conditions. Changes in the assumptions, methods or other conditions may affacte the Company’s financial statements and lead the reader to a different conclusion about the Company’s financial position. Use of this information is subject to change due to the uncertainty attached to the underlying estimates, assumptions or other conditions. All assumptions, methods and other conditions have been, and are based upon information available to management to formulate estimates to be used for financial statement purposes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and could adversely impact the Company.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred with improvements and betterments capitalized. Upon disposition, original asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with any gain or loss recognized. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over related assets estimated useful lives for financial statement purposes.  All of the assets in service have a 5 year estimated useful life.
 
Property and equipment is critical for producing inventory. Without property and equipment the Company would have no means to create inventory, thus making property and equipment a critical accounting policy.

Management's estimates used to determine property and equipment are based upon assumptions, methods and other conditions. Property and equipment's useful life has been estimated based upon management's knowledge of the property and equipment as well as expectations of the use of the property and equipment. Changes in the assumptions, methods or other conditions may affect the Company's financial statements and lead the reader to a different conclusion about the Company's financial position. Use of this information is subject to change due to the uncertainty attached to the underlying estimates, assumptions, methods or other conditions. All assumptions, methods and other conditions have been made based upon information available to management to formulate estimates to be used for financial statement purposes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Differences could adversely impact the Company.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
We review property and equipment and intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amounts to future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows when assessing impairment. FASB ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangibles Assets, (“ASC 350") addresses the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets. Under ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but reviewed on an annual basis for impairment, or sooner if there is an indication of impairment.
 
Impairment of long-lived assets is critical for determining the financial statement presentation of the Company's key assets. Impairment of these assets can impact the cost of inventory or general and administrative costs, thus impacting several key financial ratios (i.e. quick, current, debt to equity) that can reduce the Company's ability to obtain future financing, generate future sales, or require additional capital expenditure to replace such long-lived assets. All of these considerations make the impairment of long-lived assets a critical accounting policy.

Management's estimates used to determine impairment of long-lived assets are based upon assumptions, methods and other conditions. Current estimates are based upon the life of the long-lived assets and the operating functionality of these long-lived assets. No long-loved asset has been impaired in the Company's history. Changes in the assumptions, methods or other conditions may affect the Company's financial statements and lead the reader to a different conclusion about the Company's financial position. Use of this information is subject to change due to the uncertainty attached to the underlying estimates, assumptions, methods or other conditions. All assumptions, methods and other conditions have been made based upon information available to management to formulate estimates to be used for financial statement purposes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Differences could adversely impact the Company.

Results of Operations
 
Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to nine months ended September 30. 2009
 
Revenue - During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our net sales decreased 22% to $89,537 from $115,290. Our decrease in sales was attributed to reduced sales effort while we awaited the manufacture of a full assortment of annulated screws and bore fixation devices to be available for sale.
 
Cost of sales - For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, cost of sales increased approximately 39% to $42,632 as compared to $30,474 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to better internal controls regarding the allocation of costs between weighted average cost pool used to calculate cost per screw and the purchase costs for products held for resale without any improvements. Costs of goods purchased and held for resale during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $15,841 and costs of screws sold, as calculated using the weighted average method, were $26,791 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The weighted average cost per screw, which was $37.38 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, declined to $33.78 per screw for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 (a $3.60 per screw decrease). This reduction in the weighted average cost per screw is attributable to an increase in the number of screws that were produced during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, a favorable variable cost factor involved in the production process, and an improved production process. The Company routinely monitors the cost of goods calculations. The Company also continues to explore outsourcing of production of certain goods like instruments and surgical sets.
 
Overall costs incurred (a $113,651 overall increase) that are considered in the weighted average inventory valuation method are contract labor ($25,958 increase), rent ($15,000 increase), raw material purchases ($26,312 increase), insurance ($6,779 increase), depreciation and amortization ($37,761 increase), drawing fees ($3,310 increase), repairs  and maintenance ($6,306 increase) and property taxes ($7,775 decrease) contributing to the overall increase in inventory to $620,344 at September 30, 2010 as compared to $352,049 at September 30, 2009 ($268,295 increase). Raw material costs increased even though the cost of material per pound decreased because the Company bought pre-drilled tubing instead of solid. The increased costs of acquisition were more than offset by the lower costs of production due to the elimination of multiple steps required to drill a hole in the metal stock. As the equipment gets older, it is anticipated that more repairs and maintenance not covered by warranty will need to be made.
 
The value of inventory increased by almost 80% in part because of the factors listed above but also because of the increase in number of screws being held in inventory. Each surgical set requires an inventory of approximately 700 screws. This inventory is necessary so that surgeons will have the screws they need when they are in the middle of surgery. The more sets put into the field, the larger the inventory will become. It is anticipated that inventory will continue to grow. Overall screw production increased to 8,326 units for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to 3,455 units for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 (4,871 increase). Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was approximately 47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to approximately 26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  Gross profit decreased approximately 45% to $46,905 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $84,816 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
 
Expenses- Our expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 425% to $287,838 as compared to $54,782 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  The primary expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were salaries of $120,000, professional fees of $67,905, commission of $33,830, computer and internet expenses of $10,697, and office supplies and expenses of $8,275. Salaries increased dramatically as we brought employees on full time. Employee salaries are anticipated to continue to grow in the future and  every attempt will be made to match the additional employees with increased revenues. Sales commissions went up even though sales were down due to the hiring of a sales  representative who was on commission only payment system. As we grow, commissions are expected to continue to grow and depending on the types of representatives the Company is able to hire, will determine the level of commissions that will be required. Our professional fees were primarily attributable to accounting and legal fees incurred in connection with our initial audit and the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-1.

Operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $240,933 as compared to an operating  profit of $30,034 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  The decrease was a direct result of the increase in operating expenses by $233,056.  Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was further increased by an increase in interest expense to $143,239 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $16,797 income expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  The $126,442 increase in interest expense was the result of an increase in debt.   Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $375,478 as compared to net income of $13,024 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. 
 
Year ended December 31, 2009 compared to year ended December 31, 2008
 
Revenue- During the year ended December 31, 2009, we generated net sales of $161,607, all of which is attributable to the sale of our cannulated screws.  During the same period of 2008, we had net sales of $192,793.  The decrease in net sales of approximately 16.18% was the result of reduced sales efforts while we awaited the completion of our manufacture of a full assortment of cannulated screws and bone fixation devices to be available for sale.
 
Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $45,095 as compared to $44,384 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was approximately 28% for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to approximately 23% for the year ended December 31, 2008. Gross profit decreased approximately 21% to $116,512 for the year ended December 31, 2009 from $148,409 for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
Expenses - Our total general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $84,445 as compared to $85,738 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 were primarily attributable to sales commission which were $36,504 and to a lesser extent professional fees of $13,281, telephone expenses of $8,047, bad debt expense of $5,125 and depreciation expense of $4,750. Our professional fees were primarily attributable to accounting fees incurred in connection with our initial audit. The general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2008 were primarily attributable to sales commissions which were $52,659, and to a lesser extent, bad debt expense of $8,913, depreciation expense of $5,562, telephone expense of $5,344 and office supplies and expense of $5,166.
 
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased approximately 49% from $32,067 from $62,671 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The decrease was a direct result of the decrease in sales.  Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was reduced by interest expense of $28,707 for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $13,136 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in interest expense was the result of an increase in debt.   Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased approximately 86% to $6,014 from $42,049 for the year ended December 31, 2008. 
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our primary source of cash proceeds during the first nine months of 2010 was derived from short-term loans from both related as well as unrelated third parties. The proceeds from these loans were used to finance operating activity needs during the first nine months of 2010. In anticipation of the December 2010 maturity of $744,500 of these loans, the Company offered to exchange the outstanding notes for a convertible debenture which bear interest at an annual rate of 5% and mature in December 2014 unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture. Of the $744,500, $146,500 was due on December 15, 2010 and has been paid, $100,000 which is secured by a lien on all of our assets was due in December 2010 and the maturity date was extended until June 15, 2011, and $498,000 of promissory notes was exchanged for the 5% convertible debenture. In addition, $100,000 is due on a note issued to our Chief Executive Officer which is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company; however if the Company is not a public company by April 30, 2011, the note is payable by May 15, 2011.  As of September 30, 2010 $107,843 wass remaining on the $125,000 note to our Chief Executive Officer, the maturity of which note was extended to April 30, 2011., $138,015 is remaining due to a former shareholder payable  in monthly installments expiring in April 2014.
 
  
In order to meet our working capital needs, we believe we will need to raise at least an additional $500,000 in capital upon the effectiveness of this registration statement through either an offering of debt or equity securities or a combination thereof. The amount of money that we need to raise may vary depending upon our revenue from sales. At this time, the Company does not have any specific plans for raising money and has not identified a source of financing nor has it set the terms of any such financing. These proceeds will help further operating activity cash-flow needs as well as allow for the purchase of additional production equipment to expand production operations from the current three machines that are in use.
 
At September 30, 2010 we had cash and cash equivalents of $241,144 as compared to $4,750 at December 31, 2009.   At September 30, 2010 we had a working capital deficit of $456,274. This deficit is expected to be mitigated by the possible debt-to-equity swap. At December 31, 2009 the Company had a working capital deficit of $322,302. For the year ended December 31, 2009 our cash used in operating activities was $214,341. Our primary sources and uses of cash from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was income from operations, adjusted for noncash items of income and expense such as depreciation expense, deferred income taxes, bad debt and interest on bridge financing loan and other adjustments which included:
 
·  
An increase in licenses and security deposit and increase in inventory related to increased sales
·  
An increase in accounts payable related to increased purchases of inventory in anticipation of increased sales
·  
A decrease in accounts receivable
 
Net cash used in investing activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $31,708, all of which was attributable to the purchase of equipment.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $573,372 which included $744,500 from notes payable issued in connection with certain bridge financing, which was offset by $21,299 used to make capital lease payments and $49,829 used to make payments of related party loans and notes payable.

Net sales
 
To date, the revenue that we have generated has been minimal. If our anticipated sales for the next few months do not meet our expectations, our existing resources will not be sufficient to meet our cash flow requirements for the next few months.  Furthermore, if our expenses exceed our anticipations, we will need additional funds to implement our business plan.  We will not be able to fully establish our business if we do not have adequate working capital and if we do not have adequate working capital we may need to raise additional funds, whether through a stock offering or otherwise.  
 
Current and Future Financing Needs
 
We have incurred negative cash flow from operations since we started our business. We have spent, and expect to continue to spend, substantial amounts in connection with implementing our business strategy, including our advertising and marketing campaign, and our research and development efforts and fees in connection with regulatory compliance and corporate governance. The actual amount of funds we will need to operate is subject to many factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our anticipated sales for the next few months do not meet our expectations, our existing resources will not be sufficient to meet our cash flow requirements for the next few months. Furthermore, if our expenses exceed our anticipations, we will need additional funds to implement our business plan. We will not be able to fully establish our business if we do not have adequate working capital and if we do not have adequate working capital we may need to raise additional funds, whether through a stock offering or otherwise.
 
Our continued operations in the long term will depend on whether we are able to generate sufficient revenue from operations or raise additional funds through various potential sources, such as equity and debt financing. Such additional funds may not become available on acceptable terms and there can be no assurance that any additional funding that we do obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs in the long term. We will continue to fund operations from cash on hand and through the similar sources of capital previously described. We can give no assurances that any additional capital that we are able to obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs.
 
We entered into a non-cancellable sublease agreement with a former shareholder for the commercial operating facilities as well one of our Swiss Turn CNC Machines (Manberi Citizen-Cincom, Serial # P15284). The sublease expires April 1, 2012 and requires monthly payments of $5,660. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 we expended $89,000 and $38,000 under the facility and equipment sub lease agreements.   Our future minimum lease payments required under our sublease are as follows: 2010 -  $103,932; 2011 - $76,932; and 2012 - $16,983.  
 
We also have capital lease obligations for two other pieces of equipment that expire in 2014 as follows: 2010 -$62,030; 2011 - $57,258; 2012 - $57,258; 2013 - $57,258 and 2014 - $30,647.
 
In addition, as of September 30, 2010 we had outstanding notes payable with gross principal balances of $1,090,358 (exclusive of $118,666 of amortization of discounts that is reflected in the financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010) Of such amount, $146,500 was due December 15, 2010 and has been paid,  $100,000 is due on a note issued to our Chief Executive Officer which is convertible into shares of common stock  of the Company; however if the Company is not a public company by April 30, 2011, the note is payable by May 15, 2011.  As of September 30, 2010 $107,843 was remaining on the $125,000 note issued to our Chief Executive Officer, the maturity of which note was extended to April 30, 2011, $100,000 , which is secured by a lien on all of our assets was due December 2010 and the maturity date was extended June 15, 2011, $498,000   of promissory notes were exchanged for convertible debentures which bear interest at an annual rate of 5% and mature in December 2014 unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture, and $138,015 is due in monthly installments expiring in April 2014. These notes bear interest at rates ranging from 5% per annum to 9% per annum. One of the notes ($100,000 issued to our Chief Executive Officer) is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $.20 per share upon a transaction where we merge with, are acquired by or become a publicly traded company.
 
We have based our estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong. As previously stated, we may need to obtain additional funds in the next couple of months or in greater amounts than we currently anticipate. Potential sources of financing include strategic relationships, public or private sales of our shares or debt and other sources. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets when conditions are favorable due to our long-term capital requirements. We do not have any committed sources of financing at this time, and it is uncertain whether additional funding will be available when we need it on terms that will be acceptable to us, or at all. If we raise funds by selling additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into common stock, the ownership interest of our existing shareholders will be diluted. If we are not able to obtain financing when needed, we may be unable to carry out our business plan. As a result, we may have to significantly limit our operations and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially harmed.

DIRECTORS
 
Directors are elected at each annual meeting of shareholders and hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders following their election.  To date, none of our directors have received any compensation from us, whether in the form of cash or securities, for their service as directors.
 
ADVISORY PANELS
 
The Company plans to assemble “Advisory Panels” in each of the Company’s main areas including general orthopedics and podiatry to refine the Company’s plates and screws. It is anticipated that these people will be either high volume, academically based physicians or surgeons of national reputations. It is anticipated that members of the advisory panels will work with the Company’s engineers to refine the Company’s products and help with educational activities to train surgeons on product use and procedures for implantation. It is anticipated that 7-10 participants will be on each panel and they will receive 50,000 options priced at what would be the market price when they would be appointed. They would also be eligible for $450/hr stipend if they are required to be away from their office to teach courses.

Audit Committee
 
Our board of directors currently serves as our audit committee. The audit committee is responsible for recommending independent auditors and reviewing management actions in matters relating to audit functions. The committee reviews, with independent auditors, the scope and results of its audit engagement, the system of internal controls and procedures and reviews the effectiveness of procedures intended to prevent violations of laws.
 
The audit committee, consistent with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules adopted thereunder, meets with management and the auditors prior to filing of officers’ certifications with the SEC to receive information concerning, among other things, significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls.
 
 Our board of directors does not have an “audit committee financial expert,” within the meaning of that phrase under applicable regulations of the SEC, serving on the audit committee. The board of directors believes that each member is financially literate and experienced in business matters and is capable of (1) understanding generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and financial statements, (2) assessing the general application of GAAP principles in connection with our accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, (3) analyzing and evaluating our financial statements, (4) understanding our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, and (5) understanding audit committee functions, all of which are attributes of an audit committee financial expert. However, the board of directors believes that no audit committee member has obtained these attributes through the experience specified in the SEC's definition of “audit committee financial expert.” Further, as is the case with many small companies, it would be difficult for us to attract and retain board members who qualify as “audit committee financial experts,” and competition for such individuals is significant. The board of directors believes that its current audit committee is able to fulfill its role under SEC regulations despite not having a designated “audit committee financial expert.”
     
 
Set forth below is the compensation that was accrued to our executive officers during the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.   All executive officers except for Chris Endara volunteered to defer cash payment of their compensation until after the company raises additional funds.

RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
 
Other than as indicated below, none of the selling shareholders has at any time during the past three years acted as one of our employees, officers or directors or had a material relationship with us.
 
DETERMINATION OF THE OFFERING PRICE
 
There is currently no trading market for our common stock. The price in this prospectus was arrived at by evaluating our recent sales of unregistered securities.
 
 
Each selling securityholder of our common stock and any of their transferees, pledgees, assignees, donees, and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the stock exchange on which they are listed or the OTC Bulletin Board, if quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, or in private transactions. These sales will be at a fixed price of $2.00 per share until the shares of common stock are listed on the OTC Bulletin Board, after which sales may be at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. Selling security holders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling 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;
 
· an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
· privately negotiated transactions;
 
· broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
· a combination of any such methods of sale; or
 
· any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling securityholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling securityholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. Each selling securityholder does not expect these commissions and discounts relating to its sales of shares to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The selling security holders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Because selling securityholders may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of common stock will be paid by the selling securityholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling security holder has represented and warranted to us that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such selling security holder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such selling securityholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
 
35

 
 
There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the selling security holders. We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
The selling security holders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors-in-interest as selling security holders under this prospectus. Upon our company being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling securityholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon our company being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
 
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to our common stock for a period of two business days prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling security holders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of our common stock by the selling security holders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling securityholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale.
 
  
We were formed in March 2006 by five individuals who were our initial officers and shareholders (Matt Endara, Kenneth West, Dr. Jaime Carbonell, Christopher Endara and Esteben Hernandez) who received an aggregate of 1,000 shares of common stock in consideration of their capital contribution of $100 per share and had entered into a shareholders’ agreement with respect to such shares.   In May 2009, one of the original shareholders, Esteben Hernandez, who through a company owned by him had advanced cash to us, paid for certain equipment leases and sublet office and manufacturing space to us,  agreed to relinquish his shares of common stock but to continue to allow us to sublease office and manufacturing space. In connection with this former  shareholder’s agreement to separate from the Company, dated June 2009 we executed certain noncancellable sub-lease agreements for office space located in Medley, Florida and for certain manufacturing equipment ( the Swiss Turn CNC Machine (Manberi Citizen-Cincom, Serial # P15284), the execution of which was a term of  the separation. Prior to such separation, Mr. Hernandez contributed monthly rental value of the premises as they are contained within the larger space utilized and leased to his 100% owned company. The facilities sub-lease term continues through March 2011 at the rate of $3,000 monthly, plus a proportionate share of tenant expenses. Payments under this sublease have been personally guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer.The equipment sublease continues through March 2012 when the underlying lease is over. The terms of the sublease transfer all rights to acquire the equipment at fair market value at that time. The Company has been making required monthly payments of $5,661 and will continue concurrently with the master lease. The Company is required to provide insurance and pay property taxes allocated to the sub-leased equipment. Payments under this sublease have been personally guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer.
 
We also issued  a promissory note to Esteben Hernandez for $185,000 representing the amount that this former shareholder had advanced the Company. Initially the loan was interest free and on April 20, 2009 was memorialized in a promissory note  with 6% interest . Interest was imputed on these advances for the period before separation amounting to $16,748, which was converted to additional paid in capital.  This promissory note is payable $3,577 monthly, including interest, maturing May, 2014. Maturities of this note are as follows: 2010 - $8,709 (three months), 2011 - $36,152, 2012 - $38,353, 2013 - $40,689 and 2014 - $14,112 In addition, we entered into a rental agreement with a company controlled by such former shareholder for the lease of a machine. Outstanding  balances on the notes issued to Esteban Hernandez were $166,132 and $185,000 at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
 
The Company has two other two equipment leases which also expire  in 2014. and require payments of $62,030 for 2010, $57,258 for 2011 through and including 2013 and $35,316 for 2014. Payments under all these leases have been personally guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer.
 
At the same time, Stephen Dresnick was elected our President.  Mr. Dresnick was issued 240 shares of common stock in consideration of his investment of $24,000 and a revised shareholders agreement was entered into among the four remaining shareholders and Stephen Dresnick.
 
In May 2009, we entered into the Amended Shareholders’ Agreement with Matt Endara, Kenneth West, Dr. Jaime Carbonell, Christopher Endara and Dr. Stephen Dresnick (the “Shareholders”).  The Amended Shareholders Agreement contained certain restrictions on sales of shares of our stock by the Shareholders and certain restrictions on corporate action, each of which could hinder our ability to conduct future offerings, making loans, increasing or decreasing the authorized number of shares or changing their rights, admitting additional shareholders. This agreement was terminated in November 2010 pursuant to a Termination Agreement and a subsequent Amended and Restated Termination Agreement.

Loans from Stephen Dresnick were $236,702 and $29,078 at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. These loans were initially without interest and were memorialized in two notes in May 2009.  We have issued two promissory notes to Stephen Dresnick, our Chief Executive Officer, one in the principal amount of One Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000) (the “$125,000 Note”) and the other in the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “$100,000 Note”).  Both notes bear interest at a rate of 9%. The principal amount and all accrued interest on the $125,000 Note is due within ten days of the date we merge with, are acquired by or become a publicly reporting company or in the event that such a transaction does not occur by October 31, 2010, the note becomes due on April 30, 2011.   As of September 30, 2011 there was $107,843 remaining principal on this note. Since a transaction was not consummated by October 31, 2010, the principal and accrued interest of the $125,000 note is due and payable by April 30, 2011.  In connection with the issuance of the $125,000 Note, Dr. Dresnick was issued warrants exercisable for 125,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $.25 upon the closing of a transaction where we merge with, are acquired by or become a publicly traded company. The warrants expire 24 months after the closing of any such transaction.
 
The face amount and accrued interest on the $100,000 Note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $.20 per shares upon a transaction where we merge with, are acquired by or become a publicly traded company.  In the event that a transaction is not consummated by April 30, 2011, the note and any accrued interest is payable by May 15, 2011. 
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we derived $36,936 (41%) of our net sales revenue from a surgical facility in which one current shareholder, Jamie Carbonell, who is also a current director, continues to have a financial interest.  For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 we derived $92,685 (57%) and $75,612 (39%) of our net sales revenue, respectively, from a surgical facility. During 2009, in addition to the one director, Jaime Carbonell, that had and continues to have a financial interest in such facility, our Chief Executive Officer, Steven Dresnick, had an investment interest in such facility and our Chief Financial Officer, Laura Cattabriga, was employed to work at such facility. Since 2009 our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are no longer investors in or employed by such facility.  If our shareholder were to no longer be affiliated with us or the surgical center, our relationship with the surgical center and our ability to sell products to such surgical center could be terminated. We do not have a written agreement with the surgical center, which places purchase orders on an as needed basis, the payment terms of which are typically net 30 days.
 
A current shareholder, director and officer of the Company, Kenneth West, had earned sales commission during the year ended December 31, 2008 of $51,600 related to sales of our cannulated screws and sales commission of $5,330 during 2010. Loans from Kenneth West were $1,670 at December 31, 2009.
 
On January 25, 2010 we issued a note in the principal amount of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) to Ken West, our Vice President of Sales and Marketing.  The note bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum and is due on December 15, 2010. This Note was exchanged for a convertible debenture which bears interest at an annual rate of 5% and matures in December 2014 unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture
 
On February 3, 2010 we issued a bridge note in the principal amount of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000) to Laura Cattabriga, our Chief Financial Officer.  The note bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum and is due December 15, 2010. This Note was exchanged for a convertible debenture which bears interest at an annual rate of 5% and matures in December 2014 unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture.
 
Chris Endara, Matt Endara and Ken West have each have been advanced $23,000 from the Company during 2010. Ken West repaid the advance in cash. Chris Endara and Matt Endara paid back the advance through a non-cash transaction which entitled them to accrued compensation for services rendered prior to September 30, 2010. Amounts accrued in excess of the advances owed are still payable to Chris Endara and Matt Endara.
 
In October 2010 we also issued options exercisable at an exercise price of $.20 per shares for 150,000 shares of common stock to each of Laura Cattabriga, Stephen Dresnick, Chris Endara, Matt Endara and Kenneth West. The options were issued for past services and are immediately exercisable and expire on October 1,2013.

37

 
 
The holders of shares of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose and in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.  The holders of 50% percent of the outstanding common stock constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, and the vote by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares are required to effect certain fundamental corporate changes, such as liquidation, merger or amendment of our articles of incorporation.
 
Dividends
 
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock.  The payment of cash dividends in the future, if any, will be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition.  The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors.  It is the present intention of the board of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, the board does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The $498,000 of convertible notes  are convertible at the option of the holder at any time after their issuance at a price equal to 85% of the daily volume-weighted average price of our common stock for the ten days prior to such conversion if our stock is publicly traded at the time of conversion and $2.00 per share if our stock is not publicly traded at the time of conversion unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture.

FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
 
Our Bylaws provide that we will indemnify and hold harmless each person who serves at any time as a director, officer, employee or agent of us from and against any and all claims, judgments and liabilities to which such person shall become subject by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of us, and shall reimburse such person for all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with any such claim or liability. We also have the power to defend such person from all suits or claims in accordance with the Florida Business Corporation Act. The rights accruing to any person under our Bylaws do not exclude any other right to which any such person may lawfully be entitled, and we may indemnify or reimburse such person in any proper case, even though not specifically provided for by the Bylaws.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer for expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
 
 The validity of our common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Gracin & Marlow, LLP, New York, New York.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
NOTE 1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
Description of Business
 
Internal Fixation Systems, Inc. ("the Company") was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in 2006, with operations commencing during 2007. The Company's headquarters are located in Medley, Florida, where it conducts the majority of its operations. The Company is principally engaged in manufacturing a full range of generically priced FDA approved orthopedic and podiatric surgical implants intended for small bone fixation – extremity surgery.
 
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. These unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
Accounting Standards Codification
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("FASB ASC 105-10").  This Standard establishes an integrated source of existing authoritative accounting principles to be applied by all non-governmental entities and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The adoption of FASB ASC 105-10 by the Company did not have a material impact on the financial statements and only resulted in modifications in accounting reference in the footnotes and disclosures.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of short and long-term debt also approximates fair value since these instruments bear market rates of interest.
 
 
Q-6

 
 
INTERNAL FIXATION SYSTEMS, INC.
 
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
 
Accounting 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 the 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Net Income (loss) per share
 
Basic earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted per share amounts reflect, the potential dilution that could occur if securities, options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
 
At September 30, 2009 there were no stock options or warrants which would be considered dilutive. 
 
At September 30, 2010 there were stock options, warrants, and convertible debt, see Note 5, which would be considered anti-dilutive if they were exercised. An additional 278,205 of weighted average number of shares would result from the exercise of stock options and warrants. An additional 56,777 of weighted average number of shares would result from the conversion of debt would be considered anti-dilutive.
 
Intangible Asset
 
The Company capitalizes costs associated with legal fees paid in connection with obtaining approval of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the sale of the medical devices.  The license is valid indefinitely.  Total fees of $7,991 were paid through September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. As cash flows are expected to continue indefinitely, in accordance with ASC 350, the license is determined to have an indefinite useful life.
 
Capital Lease Obligations
 
Certain long-term lease transactions relating to the financing of equipment are accounted for as capital leases. Capital lease obligations reflect the present value of future rental payments, less an interest amount implicit in the lease. A corresponding amount is capitalized as property and equipment, and depreciated over the individual asset’s estimated useful life
 
 
Q-7

 
 
INTERNAL FIXATION SYSTEMS, INC.
 
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
 
Deferred Offering Costs
 
The Company anticipates an initial public offering in late 2010 or early 2011. Expenses incurred relating to the initial public offering have been capitalized and will offset gross proceeds from the initial public offering. Expenses incurred during the nine months ending September 30, 2010 were $68,346.
 
Income Tax Matters
 
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are recognized for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate primarily to temporary differences in depreciation calculated for book and tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when assets or liabilities are recovered or settled.
 
Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense (benefit) is the income tax payable (receivable) for the year and the change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
 
The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”).  FASB Statement No. 109 has been codified in ASC Topic 740[-10].  ASC Topic 740[-10] contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 740[-10].  The first step is to evaluate the tax position for
recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any.  The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.  ASC Topic 740[-10] did not result in any adjustment to the Company’s provision for income taxes.
 
NOTE 2.        RESTATEMENT
 
The Company has restated the financial statements as a result of the 2,000 : 1 stock split which occurred subsequent to December 31, 2009.  In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 4, when a change in the capital structure has occurred prior to the release of the financial statements, such changes must be given retroactive effect in the financial statements.  As a result the number of shares authorized, issued and outstanding

NOTE 2.        RESTATEMENT (continued)
 
along with the par value per share have been restated to reflect the 2,000 : 1 stock split.
 
NOTE 3.        INVENTORY
 
The Company’s inventory consists primarily of a full range of finished cannulated screws, purchased guide wires and tools for use in surgical operations and also includes a nominal amount of raw materials, in total amounting to $620,344 and $352,049 as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.  A portion of the Company’s inventory is maintained at selected customer surgery centers as well as with travelling sales representatives.  At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, $184,145 and $230,465, respectively, of inventory is classified as non-current, as the amount is not expected to be sold in the next business cycle.
 
 
NOTE 4.        PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $52,727 and $18,431, respectively.  Of these amounts, $48,566 and $14,868, respectively, were capitalized within inventory, and $4,161 and $3,563, respectively, were included within selling, general and administrative expenses.
 
NOTE 5.        COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Operating leases
 
The Company entered into non-cancelable sub-lease agreements with a former shareholder for its commercial operating facilities, located in Medley, Florida, and for certain manufacturing equipment. These sub-leases were executed during June 2009, in connection with this shareholder’s separation from the Company. Prior to such separation, the former shareholder contributed monthly rental value of the premises as they are contained within the larger space utilized and leased to his 100% owned company. The facilities sub-lease term continues through March 2011 at the rate of $3,000 monthly, plus a proportionate share of tenant expenses.
 
The master equipment lease began during 2007 and continues through March 2012. The Company has been making required monthly payments of $5,661 without formal agreement, however beginning June 2009 this arrangement was formalized and will continue concurrently with the master lease. The Company is required to provide insurance and pay property taxes allocated to the sub-leased equipment.
 
Sub-lease expenditures under these agreements amounted to $77,941 and $62,946 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 6.        LOANS AND NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTIES
 
From its inception, a now-former shareholder, through his 100% owned company, advanced funds without stated interest to cover operating and product development costs for the Company. Certain repayments were made, leaving an unpaid and unsecured balance of $185,000 at December 31, 2008. In connection with this shareholder’s agreement to separate from the Company, dated June 2009 and including execution of certain sub-lease agreements, the above outstanding loan was formalized into an amortizing promissory note, payable $3,577 monthly, including annual interest at 6%, maturing May, 2014. Maturities of this note are as follows: 2010 - $8,709 (three months), 2011 - $36,152, 2012 - $38,353, 2013 - $40,689 and 2014 - $14,112. Interest was imputed on these advances for the period before separation amounting to $16,748, which was converted to additional paid in capital.
 
At various times during 2009 and 2010 another Company shareholder advanced unsecured, interest-bearing funds, at 12% per annum. Gross advances from this shareholder were $207,843 and $224,034 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. During December 2009, $100,000 was formalized into an unsecured, convertible (at offer price – see below) promissory note with interest at 9%. In August 2010, a conversion price was set at $.20 per share as part of a refinancing of this note. This note will be converted into company shares upon the issuance of public shares of the entity. The value of this beneficial conversion feature was determined using an expected rate of return model discussed in Note 7, and recorded as a discount against the loan. Advances, net of discounts and accrued interest, from this shareholder were $120,343 and $224,034 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
 
Additionally, during January 2010, remaining advances from the same shareholder were converted into a separate note in the amount of $125,000, bearing interest at 9%. During August 2010, warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of company stock, at $.25 per share, were issued in connection with refinancing this note. Such warrants expire October 2012 and are valued at $0 based on an expected rate of return model discussed below in Note 7. Principal and any accrued interest on these notes are expected to be repaid by April 2011. Accordingly, these balances are reported in current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.
 
NOTE  7.       BRIDGE LOAN FINANCING
 
The Company raised $644,500 from a number of individuals with the issuance of separate promissory notes during the period January 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010. The terms of all such notes are virtually identical other than amounts and dates entered into, as follows: principal due by December 15, 2010, interest is payable quarterly at 9%; and as additional consideration, one share of Company common stock was issued for each one dollar of principal amount of the loan. In connection with the shares issued with this financing, it was determined that a fair value of each share was $.15 using the below expected rate of return model, requiring the Company to record a discount on the loans of $96,675, with such value recorded as an equity issuance. During the period ended September 30, 2010 amortization of the discount amounted to $62,069 and is reported in the accompanying statement of operations.

NOTE  7.       BRIDGE LOAN FINANCING (continued)
 
During March 2010, one bridge lender provided $100,000 in financing, under the same terms noted above, but in lieu shares of common stock the lender received 100,000 warrants to purchase shares at $.10 per share, expiring March 2013.  The value of these warrants was determined using an expected rate of return model and recorded as a discount against the loan. In connection with the warrants issued with this financing, it was determined that a fair value of each warrant was $.05, requiring the Company to record a discount on the loans of $5,000, with such value recorded as an equity issuance. During the period ended September 30, 2010 amortization of the discount amounted to $3,611 and is reported in the accompanying statement of operations.
 
The expected rate of return model has been used in establishing a price per share of $0.15. This price was established by comparing the stated rate of return on the associated loan terms to an expected rate of return on similar debt instruments. Stated rates of return on Company debt associated with this model ranged from 9% to 12% and expected rates of return were determined to be between 25% and 30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
 
NOTE 8.        EQUITY
 
During April 2010, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized number of shares from 1,000 to 10,000,000, effective December 31, 2009.  This amendment changed each share’s par value from $100 to $.05 (2,000 : 1) with  the effect being reported in the accompanying balance sheets at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
 
See Note 7 for shares issued and equity recorded in connection with bridge loan financing.
 
NOTE  9.       WARRANTS AND OPTIONS
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company issued 100,000 and 125,000 warrants to purchase shares, exercisable at $.10 and $.25, expiring March and April 2013, respectively, including the warrants described in Note 6. Additionally, options to purchase 100,000 and 125,000 shares, exercisable at $.20 were also issued, expiring March 2013 and January 2015, respectively.
 
Subsequent to September 30, 2010, additional options to purchase 750,000 and 10,000 shares, exercisable at $.20 and $1.00, respectively, were issued to various individuals, including 750,000 to officers. If not exercised, these options expire October 2012 and October 2013.
 
A summary of the change in outstanding and exercisable stock options for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009 is as follows:

NOTE  10.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
As disclosed elsewhere, current and former shareholders made various advances and loans to the Company. The Company subleases facilities and equipment from related parties, under which the Company paid and recorded expenses of approximately $78,000 and $63,000, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
Additionally, a significant portion of product sales were made to a South Florida surgical center where two current shareholders have had financial interests. Sales to this center, at prices similar to other customers, amounted to $36,936 and $43,889 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
Several shareholders, both current and former, have provided personal services or contributed facilities at no expense to the Company. These contributions have not been valued and, accordingly, are not reported in the accompanying financial statements. One current shareholder earned commissions amounting to $5,330 for his sales activities during 2010.

Consistent with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” the Company regularly estimates its ability to recover deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets that is  determined to be “more-likely-than not” recoverable.  This evaluation considers several factors, including an estimate of the likelihood of generating sufficient taxable income in future periods over which temporary differences reverse, the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, past and projected taxable income and available tax planning strategies.  A combined (federal and state) tax rate, with a maximum of 37.6%, was used to calculate the deferred taxes presented in the accompanying balance sheets.
 
At September 30, 2010, the Company had a net operating loss carry-forward totaling approximately $327,000 which is available to offset future income.
 
The Company’s tax positions remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions for the years 2009, 2008 and 2007. As of September 30, 2010, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
 
NOTE 12.      CONCENTRATION AND CREDIT RISK
 
During the nine months periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had revenues from two significant customers, each of which exceeded 10% of the Company’s total revenues. These combined revenues amounted to $52,000 and $74,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and generally requires no collateral on such credit sales.

To the Board of Directors of
Internal Fixation Systems, Inc.
 
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Internal Fixation Systems, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years 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 audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audits 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, 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Internal Fixation Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1.        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Description of Business
 
Internal Fixation Systems, Inc. ("the Company") was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in 2006, with operations commencing during 2007. The Company's headquarters are located in Medley, Florida, where it conducts the majority of its operations. The Company is principally engaged in manufacturing a full range of generically priced FDA approved orthopedic and podiatric surgical implants intended for small bone fixation – extremity surgery.
 
Accounting Standards Codification
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("FASB ASC 105-10").  This Standard establishes an integrated source of existing authoritative accounting principles to be applied by all non-governmental entities and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The adoption of FASB ASC 105-10 by the Company did not have a material impact on the financial statements and only resulted in modifications in accounting reference in the footnotes and disclosures.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of short and long-term debt also approximates fair value since these instruments bear market rates of interest.
 
Accounting 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 the 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  The Company maintains deposits in a South Florida financial institution, which is insured by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").

NOTE 1.        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.  The allowance is based on management's estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that will actually be collected.  Account balances are charged against the allowance after all collection efforts have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is remote.
 
Inventory
 
The Company’s inventory consists primarily of raw materials, manufactured and purchased finished goods available for sale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market determined by the weighted average method.  Inventory that we estimate will not be sold within the next business cycle is considered non-current inventory.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred with improvements and betterments capitalized. Upon disposition, original asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with any gain or loss recognized. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over related assets estimated useful lives for financial statement purposes.  All of the assets in service have a 5 year estimated useful life.
 
Intangible Asset
 
The Company capitalizes costs associated with legal fees paid in connection with obtaining approval of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the sale of the medical devices.  The license is valid indefinitely.  Total fees paid through December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $7,991 and $7,991, respectively.  As cash flows are expected to continue indefinitely, in accordance with ASC 350, the license is determined to have an indefinite useful life.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company reviews property and equipment and intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amounts to future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows when assessing impairment. FASB ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangibles Assets, (“ASC 350") addresses the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets. Under ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but reviewed on an annual basis for impairment, or sooner if there is an indication of impairment.

NOTE 1.        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Capital Lease Obligations
 
Certain long-term lease transactions relating to the financing of equipment are accounted for as capital leases. Capital lease obligations reflect the present value of future rental payments, less an interest amount implicit in the lease.
 
A corresponding amount is capitalized as property and equipment, and depreciated over the individual asset’s estimated useful life.
 
Revenue and Cost Recognition
 
The Company recognizes a sale and related cost of sale when products are either shipped to surgical centers or upon notification of product usage from on-site and/or Company sales representative. Unit costs are determined by an average of annual direct production costs allocated over actual units produced.
 
Advertising
 
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were $144 and $0 in 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Shipping and Handling Charges
 
The Company reports shipping and handling fees charged to customers as part of net sales and the associated expense as part of cost of sales.
 
Income Tax Matters
 
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are recognized for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate primarily to temporary differences in depreciation calculated for book and tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when assets or liabilities are recovered or settled.
 
Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense (benefit) is the income tax payable (receivable) for the year and the change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
 
FASB ASC Topic 740 (formerly known as FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109), clarifies the accounting and recognition for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the Company's income tax returns was adopted by the Company in 2009.

NOTE 1.        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
The Company’s tax positions remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions for the years 2009, 2008 and 2007. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
 
NOTE 2.        RESTATEMENT
 
The Company has restated the financial statements as a result of the 2,000 : 1 stock split which occurred subsequent to December 31, 2009.  In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 4, when a change in the capital structure has occurred prior to the release of the financial statements, such changes must be given retroactive effect in the financial statements.  As a result the number of shares authorized, issued and outstanding along with the par value per share have been restated to reflect the 2,000 : 1 stock split.
 
 
NOTE 3.        INVENTORY
 
The Company’s inventory consists primarily of a full range of finished cannulated screws, purchased guide wires and tools for use in surgical operations and also includes a nominal amount of raw materials, in total amounting to $352,049 and $191,704 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  A portion of the Company’s inventory is maintained at selected customer surgery centers as well as with travelling sales representatives.  As of December 31, 2009, $230,465 of inventory is classified as non-current, as the amount is not expected to be sold in the next business cycle.

NOTE 5.        COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Operating leases
 
The Company entered into non-cancelable sub-lease agreements with a former shareholder for its commercial operating facilities, located in Medley, Florida, and for certain manufacturing equipment. These sub-leases were executed during June 2009, in connection with this shareholder’s separation from the Company. Prior to such separation, the former shareholder contributed monthly rental value of the premises as they are contained within the larger space utilized and leased to his 100% owned company. The facilities sub-lease term continues through March 2011 at the rate of $3,000 monthly, plus a proportionate share of tenant expenses.
 
The master equipment lease began during 2007 and continues through March 2012. The Company has been making required monthly payments of $5,661 without formal agreement, however beginning June 2009 this arrangement was formalized and will continue concurrently with the master lease. The Company is required to provide insurance and pay property taxes allocated to the sub-leased equipment.
 
Sub-lease expenditures under these agreements amounted to $88,927 and $37,796 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments required under these sub-leases agreements as of December 31, 2009:

NOTE 6.        LOANS AND NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTIES
 
From its inception, a now-former shareholder, through his 100% owned company, advanced funds without stated interest to cover operating and product development costs for the Company. Certain repayments were made, leaving an unpaid and unsecured balance of $185,000 at December 31, 2008. In connection with this shareholder’s agreement to separate from the Company, dated June 2009 and including execution of certain sub-lease agreements, the above outstanding loan was formalized into an amortizing promissory note, payable $3,577 monthly, including annual interest at 6%, maturing May, 2014. Annual maturities of this note are as follows: 2010 - $36,826, 2011 - $36,152, 2012 - $38,353, 2013 - $40,689 and 2014 - $14,112. Interest was imputed on these advances for the year 2008 and period of 2009 before separation in the amounts of $12,684 and $4,064, respectively, with such amounts converted to additional paid in capital.

NOTE 6.        LOANS AND NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTIES (Continued)
 
During 2008 and 2009, another Company shareholder advanced unsecured, interest-bearing funds, at 12% per annum. Advances from the shareholder were $209,293 and $19,407 during 2009 and 2008, respectively. During December 2009, $100,000 was formalized into an unsecured, convertible promissory note with interest at 9%. The principal and any accrued interest are expected to be repaid during the year ended December 31, 2010, unless fully converted into shares of the company. Accordingly, these balances are reported in current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.
 
NOTE  7.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
As disclosed elsewhere, current and former shareholders made various advances and loans to the Company. The Company subleases facilities and equipment from related parties, under which the Company paid and recorded expenses of approximately $89,000 and $38,000, respectively.
 
Additionally, a significant portion of product sales were made to a South Florida surgical center where two current shareholders have had financial interests. Sales to this center, at prices similar to other customers, amounted to $75,612 and $92,685 for the years 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Several shareholders, both current and former, have provided personal services or contributed facilities at no expense to the Company. These contributions have not been valued and, accordingly, are not reported in the accompanying financial statements. One current shareholder earned commissions amounting to $51,600 for his sales activities during 2008, prior to the Company engaging independent sales personnel.

Deferred tax assets:
           
    Net operating losses
  $ -     $ 4,403  
    Bad debt reserve
    4,962       3,418  
    $ 4,962     $ 7,821  
Deferred tax liability:
               
    Accumulated depreciation
  $ 13,656     $ 21,115  
 
It is expected that all deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary differences will reverse and that net operating losses will be utilized in future years; therefore, no valuation allowance is needed.  A combined (federal and state) tax rate, with a maximum of 39.5%, was used to calculate the deferred tax asset presented in the accompanying balance sheets.
 
At December 31, 2008, the Company had a net operating loss carry-forward totaling approximately $12,000 which was utilized fully in 2009.
 
Consistent with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” the Company regularly estimates its ability to recover deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets that is  determined to be “more-likely-than not” recoverable.  This evaluation considers several factors, including an estimate of the likelihood of generating sufficient taxable income in future periods over which temporary differences reverse, the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, past and projected taxable income and available tax planning strategies.  As of December 31, 2009, management believes that it is more-likely-than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the net amount of our deferred tax assets over the periods during which temporary differences reverse.

NOTE  8.       INCOME TAXES (Continued)
 
The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”).  FASB Statement No. 109 has been codified in ASC Topic 740[-10].  ASC Topic 740[-10] contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 740[-10].  The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any.  The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.  ASC Topic 740[-10] did not result in any adjustment to the Company’s provision for income taxes.
 
NOTE  9.       CONCENTRATION AND CREDIT RISK
 
During 2009 and 2008, the Company had revenues from two significant customers, each of which exceeded 10% of the Company’s total revenues. These revenues amounted to $108,000 and $118,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and generally requires no collateral on such credit sales.
 
NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
The date to which events occurring after December 31, 2009, the date of the most recent balance sheet, have been evaluated for possible adjustment to the financial statements or disclosure is November 17, 2010 which is the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued.
 
During January 2010, a Company shareholder’s previously advanced funds were formalized into an unsecured promissory note payable in the amount of $125,000. Principal and any accrued interest are payable by November 15, 2010. Interest will be paid and compounded quarterly at an annual percentage rate of 9%. This promissory note was refinanced in August 2010. 125,000 warrants were attached to this promissory note upon refinancing. Principal and any accrued interest will become by the earlier of April 30, 2011 or ten days after the Company merges, is acquired or otherwise becomes a publicly traded company.
 
During January 2010, the Company granted options to purchase 50,000 and 75,000 shares at $0.20 per share for future services. These options vest over four years.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
Under the provisions of Section 607.0850 of Florida Business Corporation Act and our Bylaws, we may indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents and maintain liability insurance for those persons. Section 607.0850 provides that a corporation may indemnify a person made a party to a proceeding because the person is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if the person's conduct was in good faith. In the case of conduct in an official capacity with the corporation, the person may be indemnified if the person reasonably believed that such conduct was in the corporation's best interests. In all other cases, the corporation may indemnify the person if the person reasonably believed that such conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests. In the case of any criminal proceeding, the person may be indemnified if the person had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful.
 
Our Bylaws obligate us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Florida law. Additionally, our Bylaws grant us the authority to the maximum extent permitted by Florida law to purchase and maintain insurance providing such indemnification. We have purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance policies for our directors and officers.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities for damages arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provision, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
The following information sets forth certain information with respect to all securities which we have sold since inception, other than the securities issued to our initial shareholders  in connection with our formation and initial funding.  We did not pay any commissions in connection with any of these sales.
 
In January 2010 we issued options exercisable for an aggregate of 125,000 shares of our common stock to 2 employees and consultants. All of the options are exercisable at a price of $.20 per share. All the options exercisable for 125,000 shares of our common stock expire on January 14, 2015. These securities were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
From February 2010 through July 2010, we issued 644,500 shares of our common stock to 28 investors as part of a bridge loan. The promissory notes issued in connection with the bridge loan bear interest at an annual rate of 9% per annum and provide for the issuance of one share of common stock for each one dollar of principal amount of the note. These securities were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.  The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
 
II-1

 
 
In February 2010 we issued warrants exercisable for 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.10 per share to two consultants. The warrants which were to expire in January 2014 were exercised in September 2010. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
In March 2010, we issued an option exercisable for 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.20 to 1 consultant for services rendered. The option expires in March 2013. These securities were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
In March 2010 we issued warrants exercisable for 100,000 shares of common stock to one consultant at an exercise price of $.20 per share as part of a bridge loan.  The warrants expire in March 2013. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us.   In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering
 
In May 2010, we issued 1,999,000 shares to 5 individuals (Stephen Dresnick, Chris Endra, Matt Endara, Ken West and Jaime Carbonell) in connection with a forward split (2,000:1) of our stock.
 
In August 2010 we issued warrants exercisable for 125,000 shares of common stock to one individual at an exercise price of $.25 per share as part of a loan. The warrants expire in April 2013. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
In September 2010, we issued 59,200 shares at a price of $.50 per shares to 37 individual investors for aggregate consideration of $ 29,600. We issued an additional 40,000 shares for services at the equivalent price of $.20 per share to two former consultants for aggregate consideration of $20,000, and issued 50,000 shares as a result of the exercise of options with a strike price of $0.10 per share  that had been issued to two former consultants. These shares were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The offering and sale of the common stock did not involve a public offering and the conditions to Regulation D were met. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted. This restriction ensures that these shares will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
In October 2010, we issued options exercisable for an aggregate of 760,000 shares of our common stock to 6 employees and consultants.  All of the options other than options exercisable for 10,000 shares of our common stock are exercisable at a price of $.20 per share, and the 10,000 are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Of such options, options exercisable for (i) 150,000 share of our common stock expire on October 1, 2012 and (ii) 610,000 shares of our common stock expire on October 1, 2013. These securities were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted. This restriction ensures that these securities will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering.
 
In November and December of 2010, we issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $498,000 to twenty individuals in exchange for promissory notes that we had previously issued to such individuals in the same principal amount. The notes are convertible at the option of the holder at any time after their issuance at a price equal to 85% of the daily volume  weighted average price of our common stock for the ten days prior to such conversion if our stock is publicly traded at the time of conversion and $2,00 per share if our stock is not publicly traded at the time of conversion. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5% and mature in December 2014 unless called earlier upon the completion of an offering by the Company of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in proceeds or if the Company sells a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the convertible debenture. These securities were issued in reliance upon Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.  The offering and sale of the securities did not involve a public offering. The issuance did not involve any additional commission or other remuneration and did not involve any  general solicitation or advertising by us.  Each individual acknowledged the existence of transfer restrictions applicable to the securities sold by us. Certificates representing the securities sold contain a legend stating the restrictions on transfer to which such securities are subject.

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
 
A. Rule 415 Offering
 
We undertake:
 
(1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act.
 
 
II-3

 
 
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth 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.
  
(iii) To include any additional or changed information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to the information in the registration statement.
 
(2) That for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities 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 such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post effective amendment  any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) That for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser if the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424 (b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying  on Rule 430B or other 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; provide, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of a 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.
  
(5) That for the purpose of determining liability of the undersigned registrant small business issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the Company undertake that in a primary offering of the Company’s securities 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 small business issuer 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 small business issuer to the purchaser.
 
B. Request for Acceleration of Effective Date
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 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 Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
