Our Business

General


          We are a life sciences company focused upon the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. To date, we have focused upon the use of intravenous immunoglobulin, or IgG , derived from human plasma to treat melanoma and other cancers. We believe that IgG may be the basis for safer, more effective and efficient cancer treatment, as a mono-therapy and adjuvant cancer treatment. Our business objective is to become a recognized leader in the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer.

           IgG-based Technology : Based on our research, IgG-derived from human plasma has anti-cancer properties. These properties appear to be the result of the immunomodulatory effects of IgGs, as well as the direct effects of certain antibody populations present in IgG fractions. We have demonstrated a reduction in metastatic lesions and an improved survival rate in mice injected with human sarcoma or human melanoma cells when the animals were treated with IgGs. There is also clinical evidence suggesting that IgG-based therapy is efficacious in human cancers, including melanoma. Also, IgGs have been found to dramatically reduce the white blood cell count in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

           In addition, we recognize that IgG-based therapies possess the following unique advantages as a result of more than thirty years of clinical experience and manufacturing know-how pertaining to the treatment of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases:

 

Superior product safety - IgGs are safe and non-toxic ; and

 

 

 

 

Minimal manufacturing risk the manufacturing process for IgGs is well established and optimized due to the numerous products that have been developed from human plasma to date.

           As a result, we are pursuing the development of IgG-based technology to develop therapies for the treatment of melanoma, as well as therapies directed toward disrupting the blood supply to cancers, referred to as anti-angiogenesis.

           Melanoma : The incidence of melanoma, despite new developments in other cancers, continues to increase with little or no therapeutic progress in the last ten years. Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to two percent of the general population. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities. Based on this, we are developing VitiGam™ to initially address Stage III and Stage IV melanoma and possibly earlier stages of melanoma at a future time.

           In June 2007, we completed a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial designed to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” IgG (collected and manufactured from general population donors, which may have included donors with vitiligo) in patients with prostate cancer, colon cancer and melanoma. In this trial, no serious untoward effects of IgGs were noted. In one patient with melanoma, the cancer remained stable or improved over eight cycles of therapy (approximately ten months).

           In addition to the pre-clinical evidence we have accumulated using vitiligo-derived plasma, the above observations provide further validation for our plan to develop VitiGam™.

           We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application, or IND , for VitiGam™ in the near future. We believe that the FDA is well acquainted with IgG-based therapies and their safety profiles resulting from a long history of regulatory approvals of IgG-based products.

 

3



           In addition to VitiGam™, we are also developing the following:

 

Next generation (recombinant) VitiGam™ - VitiGam™ is currently manufactured as a mixture that largely consists of IgG molecules (antibodies of the IgG type). We anticipate that within this mixture, only a subset of IgG molecules will be responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™. “Next generation” VitiGam™ will be composed of only the IgGs required to exert the anti-melanoma effect , thereby creating a more effective compound. Identifying the relevant IgGs may also permit cost reductions; and

 

 

 

 

Cancer vaccines based on VitiGam™ - An “off-the-shelf” cancer vaccine is considered a “silver bullet” in cancer therapy. We anticipate that based on our evolving understanding of the specific IgG molecules responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™, we may be in a position to identify the corresponding antigens that may be used to develop melanoma cancer vaccines.

           Anti-angiogenesis : We are developing additional novel IgG-based therapies for cancer and other diseases. These therapies are based on the disruption of the blood supply to cells. Our scientists have shown that several mechanisms may be involved in mediating the anti-cancer effects of IgG-based immunotherapies. Angiogenesis is one of a number of well known pathways to deprive cells from their blood supply.

           In June 2007, we announced the discovery of proprietary IgG sub-fractions, in human plasma, which contain potent anti-angiogenic properties. These sub-fractions may be used for treatment of disorders resulting from neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels or angiogenesis).

           We have established a pre-clinical development program to define and characterize these anti-angiogenic anti-cancer fractions and to test their biological activity in animal models. We believe that successfully developed therapies derived from our novel IgG sub-fractions have the potential to address multi-billion dollar markets. For example, Avastin ® , also known as Bevacizumab , counteracts VEGF, a growth factor which stimulates neovascularization, and is used to treat colon and other cancers. Sales for Avastin ® in 2007 were in excess of $2 billion.

           Intellectual Property : We own a significant portfolio of patents and patent applications covering our technologies and are aggressively protecting these technology developments on a worldwide basis. In addition, in August 2007, VitiGam™ received Orphan Drug Status in the U.S. for Stage IIB to Stage IV metastatic melanoma. We are currently applying for Orphan Drug Designation in the European Union (“ E.U. ”) and its member states. Orphan Drug Status is granted by the U.S. and European regulatory authorities to promote the development of drugs for diseases affecting less than 200,000 people and in the E.U. for diseases affecting less than five cases per 10,000 people. In the U.S., Orphan Drug Status provides market exclusivity for a seven year period as well as other regulatory and income tax advantages. In the E.U. Orphan Drug Designation, if granted, will provide us with market exclusivity for ten years, certain fee reductions, protocol assistance (scientific advice), and various other E.U. and member state-specific incentives.

           In-licensing and Acquisitions : We are continuously evaluating in-licensing and/or acquisition opportunities to broaden our product portfolio and technology base.

           Management : We are led by a highly-experienced management team knowledgeable in immunotherapy for the treatment of cancer. Our management team has access to our internationally recognized Scientific Advisory Board whose members are thought-leaders in their respective areas. Our subsidiary’s Chief Scientist, Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld, M.D., FRCP, is a world-recognized immunologist and the innovator primarily responsible for much of our IgG-based technology development and knowhow.

Our Background

          We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on October 6, 1998 under the name of San Jose International, Inc. We engaged in several business models and acquisition plans, until in June 2004, approximately 27% of our then outstanding shares of common stock were acquired by Zeev Bronfeld and Vered Caplan in a private transaction. Shortly thereafter, on August 14, 2004 we raised approximately $900,000 in a private placement, and, pursuant to an agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property between our newly formed Israeli subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd., and ARP Biomed, Ltd. (“ ARP ”), our subsidiary completed the purchase and sale of ARP’s intellectual property on August 17, 2004 in consideration for the issuance to ARP of 12.5% of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary. As a result, we became the owner of 87.5% of our subsidiary which in turn owns all of the aforementioned intellectual property consisting of IgG research and development, patents and other intellectual property. At the same time, we also made a loan of $800,000 from the proceeds of the private placement to the subsidiary to finance its new business. On August 19, 2004, we changed our name to GammaCan International, Inc.

          On August 13, 2008, ARP sold to us 12.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our subsidiary such that we now own 100% of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary. In consideration for such sale, we issued to ARP 3,389,902 shares of our common stock. In connection with the sale, our subsidiary entered into an amendment of the agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property from ARP, which amendment specifically delineates clarity of title and related issues to certain intellectual property sold under the original agreement.

RISK FACTORS

          An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus before buying shares of our common stock. Our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of the following risks. The trading of our common stock could decline as a result of any of these risks. You could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. Some of the statements in “Risk Factors” are forward looking statements. See “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements”.

Risks Related to Our Business

          There is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

           Our financial statements were prepared on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. We estimate that our cash reserves and proceeds from anticipated financings will be sufficient to permit us to continue at our anticipated level of operations for a minimum of twelve months from the date of this prospectus. During 2008, we plan to increase research and development, product development, and administrative expenses relating to our business, including expenses related to research and development related to our IgG technology. We intend to use our cash reserves, as well as other funds from anticipated financings in the event that they shall be available on commercially reasonable terms, to finance these activities and other activities described herein, although we can provide no assurance that these additional funds will be available or that the anticipated financings will close in the amounts or at the times we may require or at all. If sufficient capital is not available, we would likely be required to scale back or terminate our research and development efforts. See “ Risk Factors — We will need additional capital in order to satisfy our business objectives ”.

As we have a limited operating history, investors may not have a sufficient history on which to base an investment decision.

          Although we were incorporated in 1998, we acquired our operating subsidiary in August 2004 and are in the development stage. Accordingly, we have a limited operating history upon which investors may evaluate our prospects for success. Investors must consider the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage companies, particularly in rapidly evolving markets such as the life science industry. Such risks include, without limitation, the following:

 

 

 

 

competition;

 

 

 

 

need for acceptance of products;

 

 

 

 

ability to anticipate and adapt to a competitive market and rapid technological developments;

 

 

 

 

amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our business, operations, and infrastructure; and

 

 

 

 

dependence upon key personnel.

          We cannot be certain our strategy will be successful or that we will successfully address these risks. In the event that we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Information regarding all of our past operations can be found in our reports and registration statements that have been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We are a development stage company with a history of losses and can provide no assurance as to our future operating results.

           We are a development stage company with no revenues from our contemplated principal business activity. Consequently, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows since inception. We currently have no product revenues, and may not succeed in developing or commercializing any products which will generate product or licensing revenues. We do not expect to have any products on the market for several years. In addition, development of our product candidates requires a process of pre-clinical and clinical testing, during which our products could fail. We may not be able to enter into agreements with one or more companies experienced in the manufacturing and marketing of therapeutic drugs and, to the extent that we are unable to do so, we will not be able to market our product candidates. Eventual profitability will depend on our success in developing, manufacturing, and marketing our product candidates. As of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and as of June 30, 2008, we had working capital of $3,177,967 and $222,133, and $412,240, respectively, and stockholders’ equity of $3,200,838 and $259,190, and $428,264, respectively. We generated no revenues to date. For the period from our inception on October 6, 1998 through June 30, 2008 we incurred net losses of $(12,265,847). For the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the nine months ended June 30, 2008 we incurred net losses of $(5,178,774), and $(2,064,795) and $(3,309,660), respectively. We may never achieve profitability and expect to incur net losses in the foreseeable future. See “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ”.


7



At present, our success depends solely on the successful commercialization of IgG-based therapies for our proposed use as a cancer therapy alternative.

          The successful commercialization of IgG-based cancer immunotherapies is crucial for our success. Our proposed products and their potential applications are in an early stage of clinical and manufacturing/process development and face a variety of risks and uncertainties. Principally, these risks include the following:

 

 

 

 

future clinical trial results may show that IgG based therapy is not well tolerated by recipients at its effective doses or is not efficacious as compared to placebo;

 

 

 

 

future clinical trial results may be inconsistent with ARP’s previous preliminary testing results and data from our earlier studies may be inconsistent with clinical data;

 

even if our IgG based therapies are shown to be safe and effective for their intended purposes, we may face significant or unforeseen difficulties in obtaining or manufacturing sufficient quantities or at reasonable prices;

 

our ability to complete the development and commercialization of IgG-based therapies for our intended use is significantly dependent upon our ability to obtain and maintain experienced and committed partners to assist us with obtaining clinical and regulatory approvals for, and the manufacturing, marketing and distribution of, IgGs on a worldwide basis;

 

 

 

 

even if IgG products are successfully developed, commercially produced and receive all necessary regulatory approvals, there is no guarantee that there will be market acceptance of the products; and

 

 

 

 

our competitors may develop therapeutics or other treatments which are superior or less costly than our own with the result that our products, even if they are successfully developed, manufactured and approved, may not generate significant revenues

If we are unsuccessful in dealing with any of these risks, or if we are unable to successfully commercialize our IgG products for some other reason, it would likely seriously harm our business.

          We can provide no assurance of the successful and timely development of our new products.

          Our product candidates are at various stages of research and development. Further development and extensive testing will be required to determine their technical feasibility and commercial viability. Our success will depend on our ability to achieve scientific and technological advances and to translate such advances into reliable, commercially competitive products on a timely basis. Products that we have developed and may in the future develop are not likely to be commercially available for some time. The proposed development schedules for our products may be affected by a variety of factors, including technological difficulties, proprietary technology of others, and changes in governmental regulation, many of which will not be within our control. Any delay in the development, introduction, or marketing of our products could result either in such products being marketed at a time when their cost and performance characteristics would not be competitive in the marketplace or in the shortening of their commercial lives. In light of the long-term nature of our projects, the nature technology involved, and the other factors, described elsewhere in “Risk Factors”, there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete successfully the development or marketing of any new products.

          We will need additional capital in order to satisfy our business objectives.

          To date, we have financed our operations principally through offerings of securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We believe that our cash flow and proceeds from anticipated financings will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of this prospectus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we estimate that we will require substantial additional financing at various intervals in order to continue our research and development programs, including significant requirements for operating expenses including clinical trials and intellectual property protection and enforcement, for pursuit of

8


regulatory approvals, and for commercialization of our products. We can provide no assurance that additional funding will be available or that the anticipated financings will close on a timely basis, terms acceptable to us, or at all. In the event that we are unable to obtain such financing, we will not be able to fully develop and commercialize our technology. Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including:

 

 

 

 

continued scientific progress in our research and development programs;

 

 

 

 

costs and timing of conducting clinical trials and seeking regulatory approvals and patent prosecutions;

 

 

 

 

competing technological and market developments;

 

 

 

 

our ability to establish additional collaborative relationships; and

 

 

 

 

effects of commercialization activities and facility expansions if and as required.

If we cannot secure adequate financing when needed, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs or to enter into license or other arrangements with third parties to commercialize products or technologies that we would otherwise seek to develop ourselves and commercialize ourselves. In such event, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected as we may be required to scale-back, eliminate, or delay development efforts or product introductions or enter into royalty, sales or other agreements with third parties in order to commercialize our products.

          In the future, we may rely upon our collaborative agreements with large pharmaceutical companies.

          In the future, we may rely heavily on collaborative agreements with large pharmaceutical companies, governments, or other parties for our revenues. Our inability to obtain any one or more of these agreements, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, or to circumvent the need for any such agreement, could cause significant delays and cost increases and materially affect our ability to develop and commercialize its product candidates. Some of our programs may require the use of multiple proprietary technologies, especially patented drugs. Obtaining licenses for these technologies may require us to make cumulative royalty payments or other payments to several third parties, potentially reducing amounts paid to us or making the cost of our products commercially prohibitive. Manufacturing of drug products may also require licensing technologies and intellectual property from third parties.

We rely upon patents to protect our technology. We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights and we may be liable for infringing the intellectual property rights of others.

          Our ability to compete effectively will depend on our ability to maintain the proprietary nature of our technologies, including IgG technologies. We currently hold several patents and pending patent applications in the United States and corresponding patents and patent applications filed in certain other countries covering IgG and its proposed use in cancer therapeutics. Further, we intend to rely on a combination of trade secrets and non-disclosure, and other contractual agreements and technical measures to protect our rights in our technology. We intend to depend upon confidentiality agreements with our officers, directors, employees, consultants, and subcontractors, as well as collaborative partners, to maintain the proprietary nature of our technology. These measures may not afford us sufficient or complete protection, and others may independently develop technology similar to ours, otherwise avoid our confidentiality agreements, or produce patents that would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. We believe that our technology is not subject to any infringement actions based upon the patents of any third parties; however, our technology may in the future be found to infringe upon the rights of others. Others may assert infringement claims against us, and if we should be found to infringe upon their patents, or otherwise impermissibly utilize their intellectual property, our ability to continue to use our technology or the licensed technology could be materially restricted or prohibited. If this event occurs, we may be required to obtain licenses from the holders of this intellectual property, enter into royalty agreements, or redesign our products so as not to utilize this intellectual property, each of which may prove to be uneconomical or otherwise impossible. Licenses or royalty agreements required in order for us to use this technology may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. These claims could result in litigation, which could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

          The patent position of biopharmaceutical and biotechnology firms is generally uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions. We do not know whether any of our current or future patent applications will result in the issuance of any patents. Even issued patents may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Patents may not provide a competitive advantage or afford protection against competitors with similar technology. Competitors or potential competitors may have filed applications for, or may have received patents and may obtain additional and proprietary rights to compounds or processes used by or competitive with ours. In addition, laws of certain foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States or Canada.

9


          Patent litigation is becoming widespread in the biotechnology industry and we cannot predict how this will affect our efforts to form strategic alliances, conduct clinical testing or manufacture and market any products under development. If challenged, our patents may not be held valid. We could also become involved in interference proceedings in connection with one or more of our patents or patent applications to determine priority of invention. If we become involved in any litigation, interference or other administrative proceedings, we will likely incur substantial expenses and the efforts of our technical and management personnel will be significantly diverted. In addition, an adverse determination could subject us to significant liabilities or require us to seek licenses that may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. We may be restricted or prevented from manufacturing and selling our products in the event of an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding or if we fail to obtain necessary licenses.

          Our commercial success will also depend significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other proprietary rights of third parties. Patent applications are, in many cases, maintained in secrecy until patents are issued. The publication of discoveries in the scientific or patent literature frequently occurs substantially later than the date on which the underlying discoveries were made and patent applications are filed. In the event of infringement or violation of another party’s patent, we may be prevented from pursuing product development or commercialization. See “Business—Patents and Licenses”.

We can provide no assurance that our products will obtain regulatory approval or that the results of clinical studies will be favorable.

          The testing, marketing and manufacturing of any of our products will require the approval of the FDA. We cannot predict with any certainty the amount of time necessary to obtain such FDA approvals and whether any such approvals will ultimately be granted. In any event, review and approval by the FDA is anticipated to take a number of years. Preclinical and clinical trials may reveal that one or more of our products are ineffective or unsafe, in which event further development of such products could be seriously delayed or terminated. Moreover, obtaining approval for certain products may require the testing on human subjects of substances whose effects on humans are not fully understood or documented. Delays in obtaining FDA or any other necessary regulatory approvals of any proposed product and failure to receive such approvals would have an adverse effect on the product’s potential commercial success and on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, it is possible that a product may be found to be ineffective or unsafe due to conditions or facts which arise after development has been completed and regulatory approvals have been obtained. In this event we may be required to withdraw such product from the market. To the extent that our success will depend on any regulatory approvals from governmental authorities outside of the United States which perform roles similar to that of the FDA, uncertainties similar to those stated above will also exist. See “Business – Governmental Regulation”.

          If our products are commercialized, we may be subject to product liability claims.

          The testing, marketing, and sale of pharmaceutical products entail inherent risks. If we succeed in developing new pharmaceutical products, the sale of such products may expose us to potential liability resulting from the use of such products. Such liability might result from claims made directly by consumers or by pharmaceutical companies or others selling such products. While we may seek to obtain product liability insurance, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such insurance or, if obtained, that such insurance can be acquired in amounts sufficient to protect us against such potential liability or at a reasonable cost. We do not maintain product liability insurance.

As we have no sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities, we will be required to either develop such capabilities or to outsource these activities to third parties.

          We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities. In order to succeed, we ultimately will be required to either develop such capabilities or to outsource these activities to third parties. We can provide no assurance that third parties will be interested in acting as our outsourced sales, marketing, and distribution arms on a timely basis, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to establish sales, marketing, or distribution capabilities either by developing our own organization or by entering into agreements with others, we may be unable to successfully sell any products that we are able to begin to commercialize, which would have a material adverse effect upon our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. Further, in the event that we are required to outsource these functions on disadvantageous terms, we may be required to pay a relatively large portion or our net revenue to these organizations, which would have a material adverse effect upon our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

          We have no experience manufacturing our products.

          We currently lack the resources to manufacture any of our product candidates on a large scale. Our ability to conduct clinical trials and commercialize our product candidates will depend, in part, on our ability to manufacture our products, either directly or, as currently intended, through contract manufacturers, at a competitive cost and in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (“ cGMP ”) and other regulatory requirements. We anticipate that we will be required to depend on contract manufacturers or collaborative partners for the manufacturing of our product candidates for preclinical studies and clinical trials and intend to use

10


contract manufacturers to produce any products we may eventually commercialize. If we are not able to obtain contract manufacturing on commercially reasonable terms, we may not be able to conduct or complete clinical trials or commercialize our product candidates. We have identified multiple suppliers for most if not all of the components of our drug product candidates, although we can provide no assurance that these components will be available when needed on commercially reasonable terms.

          In order to succeed, we ultimately will be required to either develop such manufacturing capabilities or to outsource manufacturing on a long-term basis to third parties. We can provide no assurance that third parties will be interested in manufacturing our products on a timely basis, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to establish manufacturing capabilities either by developing our own organization or by entering into agreements with others, we may be unable to commercialize our products, which would have a material adverse effect upon our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. Further, in the event that we are required to outsource these functions on disadvantageous terms, we may be required to pay a relatively large portion or our net revenue to these organizations, which would have a material adverse effect upon our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

          We have limited experience in conducting clinical trials.

          Clinical trials must meet FDA and foreign regulatory requirements. We have limited experience in designing, conducting and managing the preclinical studies and clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates in any country. We may encounter problems in clinical trials that may cause us or the FDA or foreign regulatory agencies to delay, suspend or terminate our clinical trials at any phase. These problems could include the possibility that we may not be able to conduct clinical trials at our preferred sites, enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials at one or more sites or begin or successfully complete clinical trials in a timely fashion, if at all. Furthermore, we, the FDA or foreign regulatory agencies may suspend clinical trials at any time if we or they believe the subjects participating in the trials are being exposed to unacceptable health risks or if we or they find deficiencies in the clinical trial process or conduct of the investigation. If clinical trials of any of the product candidates fail, we will not be able to market the product candidate which is the subject of the failed clinical trials. The FDA and foreign regulatory agencies could also require additional clinical trials, which would result in increased costs and significant development delays. Our failure to adequately demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of a pharmaceutical product candidate under development could delay or prevent regulatory approval of the product candidate and could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

We are dependent upon third party suppliers of our raw materials.

          We are dependent on outside vendors for our entire supply of IgG. While we believe that there are numerous sources of supply available, if the third party suppliers were to cease production or otherwise fail to supply us with quality IgG in sufficient quantities on a timely basis and we were unable to contract on acceptable terms for these services with alternative suppliers, our ability to produce our products and to conduct testing and clinical trials would be materially adversely affected.

We have limited senior management resources; we may be unable to effectively manage growth with our limited resources.


          We expect the expansion of our business to place a significant strain on our limited managerial, operational, and financial resources. We will be required to expand our operational and financial systems significantly and to expand, train, and manage our work force in order to manage the expansion of our operations. Our failure to fully integrate our new employees into our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. Our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel is critical to our operations and expansion. We face competition for these types of personnel from other technology companies and more established organizations, many of which have significantly larger operations and greater financial, technical, human, and other resources than we have. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel on a timely basis, on competitive terms, or at all. If we are not successful in attracting and retaining these personnel, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially adversely affected. See “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, “Business – Strategy”, and “Business—Employees ”.


We depend upon our senior management and skilled personnel and their loss or unavailability could put us at a competitive disadvantage.

          We currently depend upon the efforts and abilities of our senior executives, as well as the services of several key consultants and other key personnel. The loss or unavailability of the services of any of these individuals for any significant period of time could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, recruiting and retaining qualified scientific personnel to perform future research and development work will be critical to our success. There is currently a shortage of employees with expertise in our areas of research and clinical and regulatory affairs, and this shortage is likely to continue. Competition for skilled personnel is intense and turnover rates are high. Our ability to attract and retain qualified

11


personnel may be limited. Our inability to attract and retain qualified skilled personnel would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.


          Fulfilling our obligations incident to being a public company will be expensive and time consuming.

           As a public company, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the SEC, requires us to implement additional corporate governance practices and adhere to a variety of reporting requirements and complex accounting rules. Compliance with these public company obligations increases our legal and financial compliance costs and places significant additional demands on our finance and accounting staff and on our financial, accounting and information systems.

           In particular, as a public company, our management will be required to conduct an annual evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting and include a report of management on our internal controls in our annual reports on Form 10-K. Under current rules, we will be subject to this requirement beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. In addition, we will be required to have our independent public accounting firm attest to and report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Under current rules, we will be subject to this requirement beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ending September 30, 2009. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting or, if our independent auditors are unable to provide us with an attestation and an unqualified report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could result in a decrease in the value of our common stock.

          Because we will not pay cash dividends, investors may have to sell shares in order to realize their investment.

          We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for reinvestment in the development and expansion of our business. Any credit agreements which we may enter into with institutional lenders or otherwise may restrict our ability to pay dividends. Whether we pay cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and any other factors that the board of directors decides is relevant. See “ Dividend Policy” and “Description of Securities — Common Stock ”.

Risks Related to Our Industry

The biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapid technological developments and a high degree of competition. We may be unable to compete with more substantial enterprises.


          The biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries are characterized by rapid technological developments and a high degree of competition. As a result, our actual or proposed products could become obsolete before we recoup any portion of our related research and development and commercialization expenses. Our industries are highly competitive, and this competition comes both from biotechnology firms and from major pharmaceutical and chemical companies. Many of these companies have substantially greater financial, marketing, and human resources than we do (including, in some cases, substantially greater experience in clinical testing, manufacturing, and marketing of pharmaceutical products). We also experience competition in the development of our products from universities and other research institutions and compete with others in acquiring technology from such universities and institutions. In addition, certain of our products may be subject to competition from products developed using other technologies. See “ Business – Competition ”.


          The industry in which we operate is highly competitive.

          Numerous well-known companies, which have substantially greater capital, research and development capabilities and experience than we have, are presently engaged in the research and development efforts with respect to our target indications. By virtue of having or introducing competitive products on the market before us, these entities may gain a competitive advantage. Further future technological developments may render some or all of our current or future products noncompetitive or obsolete, and we may not be able to make the enhancements to our products necessary to compete successfully with newly emerging technologies. If we are unable to successfully compete in our chosen markets, our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. See “ Business — Competition ”.

          The government regulatory approval process is time consuming and expensive.

          To date, we have not submitted a marketing application for any product candidate to the FDA or any foreign regulatory agency, and none of our product candidates have been approved for commercialization in any country. Prior to commercialization, each product candidate will be subject to an extensive and lengthy governmental regulatory approval process in the United States and in other countries. We may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for any product candidate we develop or, even if approval is obtained, the labeling for such products may place restrictions on their use that could materially impact the marketability and profitability of the product subject to such restrictions. We have limited experience in designing, conducting and managing the clinical testing necessary to obtain such regulatory approval. Satisfaction of these regulatory requirements, which includes satisfying the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities that the product is both safe and effective for its intended therapeutic uses, typically takes several years depending upon the type, complexity and novelty of the product and requires the expenditure of substantial resources.

          Any manufacturer to produce our products will be required to comply with extensive government regulation.

          Before we can begin to commercially manufacture any of our product candidates, we must either secure manufacturing in an approved manufacturing facility or obtain regulatory approval of our own manufacturing facility and processes. In addition, the manufacturing of our product candidates must comply with cGMP and/or other requirements of the FDA and requirements by regulatory agencies in other countries. These requirements govern, among other things, quality control and documentation procedures. We or any third-party manufacturer of our product candidates, may not be able to comply with these requirements, which would prevent us from selling such products. Material changes to the manufacturing processes of our products after approvals have been granted are also subject to review and approval by the FDA or other regulatory agencies.

12


 

 

 

The commercial success of any newly-introduced pharmaceutical product depends in part upon the ability of patients to obtain adequate reimbursement.

          If we succeed in bringing our product candidates to market, they may not be considered cost-effective, and coverage and adequate payments may not be available or may not be sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive basis. In both the United States and elsewhere, sales of medical products, diagnostics, and therapeutics are dependent, in part, on the availability of reimbursement from third party payors, such as health maintenance organizations and other private insurance plans and governmental programs such as Medicare. Third party payors are increasingly challenging the prices charged for pharmaceutical products and services. We anticipate that our business will be affected by the efforts of government and third party payors to contain or reduce the cost of health care through various means. In the United States, there have been and will continue to be a number of federal and state proposals to implement government controls on pricing. Similar government pricing controls exist in varying degrees in other countries. In addition, the emphasis on managed care in the United States has increased and will continue to increase the pressure on the pricing of pharmaceutical products. We cannot predict whether any legislative or regulatory proposals will be adopted or the effect these proposals or managed care efforts may have on our business.

Risks Related to this Offering

 

 

 

In recent years, the stock market in general has experienced periodic price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons often unrelated to their operating performance. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating results. As the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, it may be difficult for you to resell your shares of common stock when you want or at prices you find attractive.

          The price of the common stock is quoted on the OTCBB and constantly changes. We expect that the market price of the common stock will continue to fluctuate. These fluctuations may result from a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

 

 

 

 

quarterly variations in our financial results;

 

 

 

 

operating results that vary from the expectations of management, securities analysts and investors;

 

 

 

 

changes in expectations as to our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations;

 

 

 

 

announcements by us, our partners or our competitors of material developments;

 

 

 

 

the operating and securities price performance of other companies that investors believe are comparable to us;

 

 

 

 

future sales of our equity or equity-related securities;

 

 

 

 

changes in general conditions in our industry and in the economy, the financial markets and the domestic or international political situation;

 

 

 

 

departures of key personnel; and

 

 

 

 

regulatory considerations.

As a result of these fluctuations, you may experience difficulty selling shares of our common stock when desired or at acceptable prices.

 

 

 

Future sales of common stock or the issuance of securities senior to the common stock or convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, common stock could materially adversely affect the trading price of the common stock, and our ability to raise funds in new equity offerings.

          Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock or other equity-related securities in the public market or privately, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or other equity-related securities. We can make no prediction as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of common stock or equity-related securities, or the availability of shares of common stock for future sale, will have on the trading price of our common stock.

If penny stock regulations impose restrictions on the marketability of our common stock, the ability of our stockholders to sell shares of our stock could be impaired.

          The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share subject to certain exceptions. Exceptions include equity securities issued by an issuer that has (i) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for more than three years, or (ii) net tangible assets of at least $5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years, or (iii) average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the preceding three years. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require that prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, and a risk disclosure schedule must be delivered to the buyer explaining the penny stock market and its risks. Our common stock currently trades on a limited basis. Based on our most recent financial statements as of the date of this prospectus, our common stock will be considered a penny stock. As such the market liquidity for the common stock will be limited to the ability of broker-dealers to sell it in compliance with the above-mentioned disclosure requirements.

          You should be aware that, according to the Commission, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

 

 

Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers;

 

 

“Boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics;

 

 

Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales;

 

 

The release of misleading information;

 

 

Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

 

 

Dumping of securities by broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, which hurts the price of the stock and causes investors to suffer loss.

          We are aware of the abuses that have occurred in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, we will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent such abuses with respect to our common stock.

 

 

 

The market for the common stock may suffer in the event of delisting from OTCBB or if our common stock is “penny stock”.

          If our common stock were delisted from the OTCBB or no exclusion from the definition of a “penny stock” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, were available, our common stock could be subject to the penny stock rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Accredited investors are generally those investors with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with a spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase, and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, delisting, if it were to occur, could materially adversely affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and the ability of purchasers to sell their shares in the secondary market.

 

 

 

Future sales of common stock by our existing stockholders could adversely affect our stock price.

          The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market after this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. Immediately after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will have outstanding 48,348,819 shares of common stock. All these shares, including 83,753 of the shares being offered in this offering, will be freely tradable under a currently effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 (subject to the lock-up agreements) unless purchased by affiliates as that term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, who may sell subject to the restrictions contained in Rule 144. Giving effect to the exercise in full of the Warrants, immediately after the commencement of this offering, we would have outstanding 64,848,819 shares of common stock.

14


          The holders of the Warrants are entitled to the registration of the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, subject to limitations established by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

          Some of our stockholders, holding approximately 4,723,234 shares of common stock, have the right, subject to a number of conditions and limitations, to include their shares in registration statements relating to our securities. By exercising their registration rights and causing a large number of shares to be registered and sold in the public market, these holders may cause the market price of the common stock to fall. In addition, any demand to include these shares in our registration statements could have an adverse effect on our ability to raise needed capital. See “Principal and Management Stockholders”, and “Plan of Distribution”.

 

 

 

Our issuance of warrants and options to investors, employees and consultants and the registration rights for the underlying shares of common stock may have a negative effect on the trading prices of our common stock as well as a dilutive effect.

          We have issued and may continue to issue warrants and options at or below the current market price. As of September 30, 2007, we had 25,062,558 outstanding warrants and options (25,022,558 as of June 30, 2008) granted to investors employees and consultants. In addition to the dilutive effect of a large number of shares and a low exercise price for the warrants and options, there is a potential that a large number of underlying shares may be sold in the open market at any given time, which could place downward pressure on the trading of our common stock.

          Because we are seeking a limited offering qualification in California, sales of our common stock will be limited in California.

          We are seeking a limited offering qualification of the common stock in California. The offering will be approved in California on the basis of such limited offering qualification where offers/sales can only be made to proposed California issuees based on their meeting certain suitability standards. The California Department of Corporations refers to and specified this standard as a “super suitability” standard of not less than (i) $250,000 liquid net worth (a net worth exclusive of home, home furnishings and automobile) plus $65,000 gross annual income, or (ii) $500,000 liquid net worth, (iii) $1,000,000 net worth (inclusive), or (iv) $200,000 gross annual income. Because the offering will be approved in California on the basis of a limited offering qualification, we do not have to demonstrate compliance with some of the merit regulations of the California Department of Corporations as found in Title 10, California Code of Regulations, Rule 260.140 et seq. In addition, the exemptions for secondary trading in California available under California Corporations Code Section 25104(h) will be withheld, although there may be other exemptions to cover private sales in California of a bona fide owner for his own account without advertising and without being effected by or through a broker dealer in a public offering.

Risks Related to conducting Business in Israel

          We are affected by the political, economic, and military risks of locating our principal operations in Israel.

          Our operations are located in the State of Israel, and we are directly affected by political, economic, and military conditions in that country. Since December 1987, the State of Israel has experienced severe civil unrest primarily in the areas that have been under its control since 1967. No prediction can be made as to whether these problems will be resolved. Our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected if major hostilities involving Israel should occur or if trade between Israel and its current trading partners is interrupted or curtailed.

          All adult male permanent residents of Israel under the age of 51, unless exempt, may be required to perform between 14 and 40 days of military reserve duty annually. Additionally, all such residents are subject to being called to active duty at any time under emergency circumstances. Some of our directors and employees currently are obligated to perform annual military reserve duty. We can provide no assurance that such requirements will not have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations in the future, particularly if emergency circumstances occur.

 

 

 

Because some of our officers and directors are located in non-U.S. jurisdictions, you may have no effective recourse against the management for misconduct and may not be able to enforce judgment and civil liabilities against our officers, directors, experts and agents.

          Many of our directors and officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any U.S. state.

USE OF PROCEEDS

           We estimate that we may receive a gross amount of $8,050,000 in proceeds assuming the exercise in full of the Warrants for cash. We intend to use the net proceeds of such exercises for general corporate purposes. The exercise of such warrants is based on the investment decisions made by the individual warrant holders. We cannot compel the warrant holders to exercise these rights and do not control the timing of those transactions. We will receive no proceeds from the resale of the Shares by the selling stockholders.

DIVIDEND POLICY

          We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The agreements, into which we may enter in the future, including indebtedness, may impose limitations on our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions on our capital stock.

          Future dividends on our common stock, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, cash requirements and surplus, financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for reinvestment in the development and expansion of our business.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

          The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and plan of operations contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements or the risk factors. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

General

          We are a development stage company and currently have no revenue from operations. Other than existing cash reserves and our intellectual property we have no significant assets, tangible or intangible. Presently, we estimate that our cash reserves and proceeds from anticipated financings will be sufficient to permit us to continue at our anticipated level of operations for a minimum of twelve months from the date of this prospectus. There can be no assurance that the anticipated financings will close on a timely basis, on terms acceptable to us or at all and there can be no assurance that we will generate revenues in the future, or that we will be able to operate profitably in the future, if at all. We have incurred net losses in each fiscal year since inception of our operations.

          As we are in the development stage of operations, the relationships between revenue, cost of revenue, and operating expenses reflected in the financial information included in this prospectus are not necessarily indicative of the relationship between and among such items as we expand and as we progress towards operations.

          We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on October 6, 1998 under the name of San Jose International, Inc. We engaged in several businesses, until in June 2004, approximately 27% of our then outstanding shares of common stock were acquired by Ze’ev Bronfeld and Vered Caplan in a private transaction. Shortly thereafter, on August 13, 2004 we raised approximately $900,000 in a private placement, and, pursuant to an agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property between our newly formed subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd., and ARP, GammaCan Ltd. completed the purchase and sale of ARP’s intellectual property (the “ Intellectual Property ”) on August 17, 2004 in consideration for the issuance to ARP of 12.5% of the common shares of GammaCan, Ltd. As a result, we became the owner of 87.5% of GammaCan, Ltd., which in turn owns all of the Intellectual Property consisting of IgG research and development, patents and other intellectual property, which appears to hold promising potential for the clinical treatment for various cancer types. At the same time, we also made a loan of $800,000 from the proceeds of the private placement to GammaCan, Ltd. to finance its new business. On August 19, 2004, we changed our name to GammaCan International, Inc. in the State of Delaware.

           On August 13, 2008, ARP sold to us 12.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our subsidiary such that we now own 100% of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary. In consideration for such sale, we issued to ARP 3,389,902 shares of our common stock. In connection with the sale, our subsidiary entered into an amendment of the agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property from ARP, which amendment specifically delineates clarity of title and related issues to certain intellectual property sold under the original agreement. The securities issued to ARP are also subject to a separate lock up agreement and registration rights agreement.

          All dollar amounts refer to US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Plan of Operation

Short Term Business Strategy

We are a life science company focused on the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. We are focused on the use of intravenous immunoglobulins, or IgGs , derived from human plasma to treat melanoma, prostate, and colon cancers. We believe that IgG therapy may be the basis of a more effective and efficient cancer treatment both as mono and as combination therapy as well as an adjuvant for cancer treatments (IgGs used in concert with other proprietary pharmaceuticals). Our business objective is to become a recognized leader in the development of immunotherapy, including IgG-based therapies and related approaches to treat cancer.

IgG-based immunotherapy will require regulatory approval before being commercially marketed for human therapeutic use. Clinical trials generally include three phases that, together, may take several years to complete. Phase I clinical studies are conducted primarily to establish safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose, or MTD . Phase II studies are designed to determine preliminary efficacy and establish dosing. Phase III studies are conducted to demonstrate therapeutic efficacy in a statistically significant number of patients, at an optimal dose level, method or route of delivery into the body, and a schedule of administration. Once clinical trials are successfully completed, products may receive regulatory approval.

We are pursuing the development of IgG-based technology to develop therapies for the treatment of melanoma, as well as therapies directed toward disrupting the blood supply to cancers, referred to as anti-angiogenesis.

Melanoma : Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to two percent of the general population. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities. Based on this, we are developing VitiGam™ to initially address Stage III and Stage IV melanoma and possibly earlier stages of melanoma at a future time.

In June 2007, we completed a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial designed to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” IgG (collected and manufactured from general population donors, which may have included donors with vitiligo) in patients with prostate cancer, colon cancer and melanoma. In this trial, no serious untoward effects of IgGs were noted. In one patient with melanoma, the cancer remained stable or improved over eight cycles of therapy (approximately ten months).

In addition to the pre-clinical evidence we have accumulated using vitiligo-derived plasma, the above observations provide further validation for our plan to develop VitiGam™.

We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application, or IND , for VitiGam™ in the near future. We believe that the FDA is well acquainted with IgG-based therapies and their safety profiles resulting from a long history of regulatory approvals of IgG-based products.

In addition to VitiGam™, we are also developing the following:

 

Next generation (recombinant) VitiGam™ - VitiGam™ is currently manufactured as a mixture that largely consists of IgG molecules (antibodies of the IgG

 

 

21

 



type). We anticipate that within this mixture, only a subset of IgG molecules will be responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™. “Next generation” VitiGam™ will be composed of only the IgGs required to exert the anti-melanoma effect , thereby creating a more effective compound. Identifying the relevant IgGs may also permit cost reductions; and

 

Cancer vaccines based on VitiGam™ - An “off-the-shelf” cancer vaccine is considered a “silver bullet” in cancer therapy. We anticipate that based on our evolving understanding of the specific IgG molecules responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™, we may be in a position to identify the corresponding antigens that may be used to develop melanoma cancer vaccines.

Anti-angiogenesis : We are developing additional novel IgG-based therapies for cancer and other diseases. These therapies are based on the disruption of the blood supply to cells. Our scientists have shown that several mechanisms may be involved in mediating the anti-cancer effects of IgG-based immunotherapies. Angiogenesis is one of a number of well known pathways to deprive cells from their blood supply.

In June 2007, we announced the discovery of proprietary IgG sub-fractions in human plasma, which contain potent anti-angiogenic properties. These sub-fractions may be used for treatment of disorders resulting from neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels or angiogenesis).

We have established a pre-clinical development program to define and characterize these anti-angiogenic anti-cancer fractions and to test their biological activity in animal models. We believe that successfully developed therapies derived from our novel IgG sub-fractions have the potential to address multi-billion dollar markets. For example, Avastin®, also known as bevacizumab , counteracts VEGF, a growth factor which stimulates neovascularization, and is approved to treat colon and other cancers. Sales for Avastin® in 2007 were in excess of $2 billion.

We are also contemplating conducting additional clinical trials to test new formulations and/or combinations of IgG-based immunotherapy candidates and to test these formulations and/or methods for different cancers at different stages of disease progression with varying dosages and routes of administration. To achieve this, we may elect to partner with a pharmaceutical company to conduct these further clinical trials, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a pharmaceutical company able, or willing, to partner with us on terms commercially acceptable to us, in order to attain broad-based regulatory approval.

Although there can be no assurance that the FDA will approve VitiGam™, or any other IgG immunotherapy candidate, we expect that, at a minimum, it will take a number of years to receive final approval and registration for commercial use as an anti-cancer agent. Our strategy is to collaborate with a suitable partner, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a suitable partner, to support late stage (Phase III) clinical development, registration and/or sales for our IgG-based cancer products.

Long Term Business Strategy

If our IgG-based cancer immunotherapy candidates show significant promise in clinical trials, and at this preliminary stage there can be no assurance that any such immunotherapy candidates will show significant promise, we plan to ultimately seek a strategic commercial

 

 

22

 



partner, or partners, with extensive experience in the development, commercialization, and marketing of cancer drugs and/or other infused therapeutic proteins, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a strategic commercial partner or partners on terms commercially acceptable to us. We anticipate such partner or partners would be responsible for, or substantially support, late stage clinical trials (Phase III) to ensure regulatory approvals and registrations in the appropriate territories in a timely manner. We further anticipate that the partner, or partners, would be responsible for sales and marketing of our IgG-based immunotherapies in certain agreed upon territories. Such planned strategic partnership, or partnerships, may provide a marketing and sales infrastructure for our products as well as financial and operational support for global clinical trials, post marketing studies, label expansions and other regulatory requirements concerning future clinical development in the United States and elsewhere. Any future strategic partner, or partners, may also provide capital and expertise that would enable the partnership to develop new formulations of IgG cancer immunotherapy suitable for patients at different stages of disease progression as well as IgG derivatives. Under certain circumstances, we may determine to develop one or more of our IgG based cancer immunotherapies on our own, either world-wide or in select territories.

Other Planned Research and Development Activities

In addition to conducting early-stage clinical trials, we plan to conduct pre-clinical research to accomplish the following:

 

Further deepen and broaden our understanding of the biology of our IgG products in cancer;

 

Develop alternative delivery systems and determine the optimal dosage for different patient groups;

 

Investigate alternative sources of immunoglobulin other than human plasma (i.e. recombinant);

 

Develop novel IgG-based therapies; and

 

Develop successor products.

Our plan is to patent any successful inventions resulting from our future research activities and to exploit any other means that may exist to protect our future IgG anti-cancer therapies in the commercial markets; although at this early stage there can be no assurance that there will be any successful inventions resulting from such research activities.

Other Planned Strategic Activities

In addition to developing our own IgG-based anti-cancer therapies drug portfolio, we are, on an on-going basis, considering in-licensing and other means of obtaining additional lead molecules of technologies to complement and/or expand our current product portfolio. Our goal is to create a well-balanced product portfolio that includes lead molecules in different stages of development and addresses different medical needs.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations is based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on various factors, including historical experience that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Going concern assumption

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. We have net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through June 30, 2008 of $12,265,847, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Based upon our existing spending commitments, we do not have sufficient cash resources to meet our liquidity requirements through September 30, 2008. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management is engaged in ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders to raise the necessary funds for future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses in the public and private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with these initiatives, management expects to secure the necessary financing as a result of the above ongoing discussions.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Valuation of options and warrants

We granted options to purchase shares of our common stock to employees and consultants and issued warrants in connection with fund raising.

The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The volatility is based on a historical volatility, by statistical analysis of the weekly share price for past periods. The expected term is the length of time until the expected dates of exercising the options, based on estimated data regarding employees’ exercise behavior.

We account for equity instruments issued to third party service providers (non-employees) in accordance with the fair value based on an option-pricing model, pursuant to the guidance in EITF 96-18 “ Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than

 

 

24

 



Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services ”. The fair value of the options granted is revalued over the related service periods and recognized using the accelerated method.

Deferred income taxes

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the assets and liabilities method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Deferred tax balances are computed using the tax rates expected to be in effect when those differences reverse. A valuation allowance in respect of deferred tax assets is provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We have provided a full valuation allowance with respect to our deferred tax assets.

Regarding our Israeli subsidiary, GammaCan Ltd, paragraph 9(f) of FAS 109, “ Accounting for Income Taxes ”, prohibits the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets that arise from differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities that are measured from the local currency into dollars using historical exchange rates, and that result from changes in exchange rates or indexing for tax purposes. Consequently, the above mentioned differences are not reflected in the computation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Income Taxes

We adopted FIN 48 effective October 1, 2007. FIN 48 requires significant judgment in determining what constitutes an individual tax position as well as assessing the outcome of each tax position. Changes in judgment as to recognition or measurement of tax positions can materially affect the estimate of the effective tax rate and consequently, affect our operating results. We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of October 1, 2007. The result of the implementation of FIN 48 did not have any impact on our financial statements.

Research and development costs

Research and development expenses are the costs incurred in the process of our pre-clinical research and/or our clinical trials. Clinical trial and pre-clinical expenses include regulatory consultant compensation and fees, research expenses, purchase of plasma, the cost of manufacturing IgG and payments to clinical research organizations and to medical centers for patient recruitment and treatment.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, research and development expenses included, among others, the cost of IgG used in the clinical trials and research work, payments to medical centers and research labs for clinical trial and pre-clinical trial work, regulatory and scientific consultants compensation, costs related to the maintenance of our registered patents, costs related to the filings of patent applications as well as salaries and related expenses of research and development staff.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2008, research and development expenses totaled $1,350,956, compared to $762,778 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007. The increase is attributable to assay development as well as pre-clinical work related to the filing of the IND for VitiGam™ and collection of plasma from donors.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expense includes the salaries and related expenses of our management, consulting costs, legal and professional fees, traveling, business development costs, insurance expenses and other general costs.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2008, general and administrative expenses totaled $1,979,379 compared to $2,902,678 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007. Costs incurred related to general and administrative activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2008 reflect a decrease of $683,000 in salary and related expenses due to lower stock based compensation expense and a reduction of headcount, a decrease of $237,000 in stock based compensation expenses for consultants, a decrease of $43,000 in public and investor relations and a decrease of $35,000 in business development, offset by an increase in professional and legal fees and an increase in general expenses such as office rent and maintenance expenses and communication and IT expenses.

Financial income/expense, net

During the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we generated interest income on available cash and cash equivalents balance as well as bank charges.

          During the year ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, the research and development expenses included, among others, the cost of IgG used in the clinical trials and research work, payments to medical centers and research labs for clinical trial and pre-clinical trial work, regulatory and scientific consultant compensation, costs related to the maintenance of our registered patents, costs related to the filings of patent applications as well as salaries and related expenses of research and development staff.

          During the year ended September 30, 2007, the research and development expenses totaled $1,198,004 compared to $802,254 during the year ended September 30, 2006. The increase is related to the pre-clinical, assay development and regulatory work in preparation for the VitiGam™ FDA clinical trial as well as stock-based compensation expenses. The research and development costs include stock based compensation costs, which during the year ended September 30, 2007 totaled $166,147 as compared to $33,440 during the year ended September 30, 2006. This increase is attributable to the implementation of FAS123R since October 1, 2006.

          General and administrative expenses

          The general and administrative expense includes the salaries and related expenses of our management, consulting costs, legal and professional fees, travel costs, business development costs, insurance expenses and other general costs.

          For the year ended September 30, 2007, general and administrative expenses totaled $4,090,163 compared to $1,263,070 for the year ended September 30, 2006. Costs incurred for general and administrative activities in the year ended September 30, 2007 reflect an increase in the number of employees as compared to the year ended September 30, 2006, from five to eight as well as additional professional, legal and consulting expenses and an increase in general expenses such as office and maintenance expenses. During the year ended September 30, 2007, as part of the general and administrative expenses, we incurred $1,580,963 of compensation expenses due to the implementation of FAS 123R related to stock options granted to employees. During the year ended September 30, 2006, we accounted for employee stock based compensation in accordance with APB 25 and incurred $163,517 of costs. Additional costs in the year ended September 30, 2007 included $474,087 related to the fair value of options, warrants and shares issued to consultants during the period, with no similar costs being incurred in the year ended September 30, 2006.

          Financial income/expense, net

          During the year ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, we generated interest income on available cash and cash equivalents balance as well as bank charges. During the year ended September 30, 2007, we incurred financial expenses related to a convertible promissory note, issued on November 20, 2006, in the total amount of $13,501.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Through June 30, 2008, we incurred losses in an aggregate amount of $12,265,847. We have financed our operations from the private placements of equity and debt financings. Through June 30, 2008, we raised a total of $9,538,553, net of transaction costs, through private placements of equity. We anticipate that additional financing will be through similar sources. As of June 30, 2008, we had $861,531 available in cash, most of which is deposited in short term, interest bearing, bank deposits. To implement our business plan, as currently contemplated, we anticipate we will need approximately $2 million for the remainder of our fiscal year, and approximately $9 million for the twelve months following July 1, 2008.

Although we do not have material financing commitments, management is engaged in ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders to raise the necessary funds for future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses in the public and private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with these initiatives, management expects to secure the necessary financing as a result of the above ongoing discussions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Planned Expenditures

The estimated expenses referenced herein are in accordance with our business plan. As our technology is still in the development stage, it can be expected that there will be changes in some budgetary items. Our planned expenditures for the twelve months following July 1, 2008 are as follows:

BUSINESS

General

           We are a life science company focused on the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. To date, we have focused on the use of intravenous immunoglobulins, or IgGs , derived from human plasma to treat melanoma, and other cancers. We believe that IgGs may be the basis for safer, more effective and efficient cancer treatment as a mono-therapy, a combination therapy and as an adjuvant therapy. Our business objective is to become a recognized leader in the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer.

           IgG-based Technology : Based on our research, IgG-derived from human plasma has anti-cancer properties. These properties appear to be the result of the immunomodulatory effects of IgGs, as well as the direct effects of certain antibody populations present in IgG fractions. We have demonstrated a reduction in metastatic lesions and an improved survival rate in mice injected with human sarcoma or human melanoma cells when the animals were treated with IgGs. There is also clinical evidence suggesting that IgG-based therapy is efficacious in human cancers, including melanoma. Also, IgGs have been found to dramatically reduce the white blood cell count in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

           In addition, we recognize that IgG-based therapies possess the following unique advantages as a result of more than thirty years of clinical experience and manufacturing know-how pertaining to the treatment of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases:

          • Superior product safety - IgGs are safe and non-toxic ; and

          • Minimal manufacturing risk the manufacturing process for IgGs is well established and optimized due to the numerous products that have been developed from human plasma to date.

           As a result, we are pursuing the development of IgG-based technology to develop therapies for the treatment of melanoma, as well as therapies directed toward disrupting the blood supply to cancers, referred to as anti-angiogenesis.

           Melanoma : The incidence of melanoma, despite new developments in other cancers, continues to increase with little or no therapeutic progress in the last ten years. Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to two percent of the general population. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities. Based on this, we are developing VitiGam™ to initially address Stage III and Stage IV melanoma and possibly earlier stages of melanoma at a future time.

28


           In June 2007, we completed a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial designed to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” IgG (collected and manufactured from general population donors, which may have included donors with vitiligo) in patients with prostate cancer, colon cancer and melanoma. In this trial, no serious untoward effects of IgGs were noted. In one patient with melanoma, the cancer remained stable or improved over eight cycles of therapy (approximately ten months).

           In addition to the pre-clinical evidence we have accumulated using vitiligo-derived plasma, the above observations provide further validation for our plan to develop VitiGam™.

           We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application, or IND , for VitiGam™ in the near future. We believe that the FDA is well acquainted with IgG-based therapies and their safety profiles resulting from a long history of regulatory approvals of IgG-based products.

          In addition to VitiGam™, we are also developing the following:

Next generation (recombinant) VitiGam™ - VitiGam™ is currently manufactured as a mixture that largely consists of IgG molecules (antibodies of the IgG type). We anticipate that within this mixture, only a subset of IgG molecules will be responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™. “Next generation” VitiGam™ will be composed of only the IgGs required to exert the anti-melanoma effect , thereby creating a more effective compound. Identifying the relevant IgGs may also permit cost reductions; and

Cancer vaccines based on VitiGam™ - An “off-the-shelf” cancer vaccine is considered a “silver bullet” in cancer therapy. We anticipate that based on our evolving understanding of the specific IgG molecules responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™, we may be in a position to identify the corresponding antigens that may be used to develop melanoma cancer vaccines.

           Anti-angiogenesis : We are developing additional novel IgG-based therapies for cancer and other diseases. These therapies are based on the disruption of the blood supply to cells. Our scientists have shown that several mechanisms may be involved in mediating the anti-cancer effects of IgG-based immunotherapies. Angiogenesis is one of a number of well known pathways to deprive cells from their blood supply.

           In June 2007, we announced the discovery of proprietary IgG sub-fractions, in human plasma, which contain potent anti-angiogenic properties. These sub-fractions may be used for treatment of disorders resulting from neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels or angiogenesis).

           We have established a pre-clinical development program to define and characterize these anti-angiogenic anti-cancer fractions and to test their biological activity in animal models. We believe that successfully developed therapies derived from our

29



novel IgG sub-fractions have the potential to address multi-billion dollar markets. For example, Avastin ® , also known as Bevacizumab , counteracts VEGF, a growth factor which stimulates neovascularization, and is used to treat colon and other cancers. Sales for Avastin ® in 2007 were in excess of $2 billion.

           Intellectual Property : We own a significant portfolio of patents and patent applications covering our technologies and are aggressively protecting these technology developments on a worldwide basis. In addition, in August 2007, VitiGam™ received Orphan Drug Status in the U.S. for Stage IIB to Stage IV metastatic melanoma. We are currently applying for Orphan Drug Designation in the European Union (“ E.U. ”) and its member states. Orphan Drug Status is granted by the U.S. and European regulatory authorities to promote the development of drugs for diseases affecting less than 200,000 people and in the E.U. for diseases affecting less than 5 cases per 10,000 people. In the U.S., Orphan Drug Status provides market exclusivity for a seven year period as well as other regulatory and income tax advantages. In the E.U. Orphan Drug Designation, if granted, will provide us with market exclusivity for ten years, certain fee reductions, protocol assistance (scientific advice), and various other E.U. and member state-specific incentives.

           In-licensing and Acquisitions : We are continuously evaluating in-licensing and/or acquisition opportunities to broaden our product portfolio and technology base.

           Management : We are led by a highly-experienced management team knowledgeable in immunotherapy for the treatment of cancer. Our management team has access to our internationally recognized Scientific Advisory Board whose members are thought-leaders in their respective areas. Our subsidiary’s Chief Scientist, Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld, M.D., FRCP, is a world-recognized immunologist and the innovator primarily responsible for much of our IgG-based technology development and knowhow.

Corporate History

           We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on October 6, 1998 under the name of San Jose International, Inc. We engaged in several business models and acquisition plans, until in June 2004, approximately 27% of our then outstanding shares of common stock was acquired by Zeev Bronfeld and Vered Caplan in a private transaction. Shortly thereafter, on August 14, 2004 we raised approximately $900,000 in a private placement, and, pursuant to an agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property between our newly formed Israeli subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd., and ARP Biomed, Ltd. (“ ARP ”), our subsidiary completed the purchase and sale of ARP’s intellectual property on August 17, 2004 in consideration for the issuance to ARP of 12.5% of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary. As a result, we became the owner of 87.5% of our subsidiary which in turn owns all of the aforementioned intellectual property consisting of IgG research and development, patents and other intellectual property. At the same time, we also made a loan of $800,000 from the proceeds of the

30


private placement to the subsidiary to finance its new business. On August 19, 2004, we changed our name to GammaCan International, Inc.

           On August 13, 2008, ARP sold to us 12.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our subsidiary such that we now own 100% of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary. In consideration for such sale, we issued to ARP 3,389,902 shares of our common stock. In connection with the sale, our subsidiary entered into an amendment of the agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property from ARP, which amendment specifically delineates clarity of title and related issues to certain intellectual property sold under the original agreement. The securities issued to ARP are also subject to a separate lock up agreement and registration rights agreement.

Background

          Current Approaches to Cancer Therapy

           Cancer is a malignant condition which starts in a cell of a specific organ in the body. If left untreated, the cancer will grow in size, affect the organ, and ultimately spread (metastasize) to other organs throughout the body where it will also grow and affect the vital function of the organs to which it has spread. Malignant cancers are ultimately terminal because they affect vital organ function. The rate at which these events occur depends on the natural course of the specific cancer, host factors such as the general health of the patient, his or her age, the ability of his or her immune system to deal with the cancer, and other factors.

           In general and whenever possible, primary cancers are surgically removed, particularly if the tumor has not spread beyond the site where it originated. In most cases excision will be curative if the cancer has not spread (e.g. such is the case with early stage melanomas). For some cases, adjuvant chemo and/or radiation therapy may be indicated, even when the primary tumor does not appear to have spread elsewhere. Once the cancer has spread beyond its primary site, a variety of therapeutic options are available depending on the location and extent of metastases and the natural history of the

31


cancer. Patient factors also play a role. Therapeutic options can be one or more of the following:

           Further surgical removal;

           Chemotherapy – the use of drugs designed to destroy cancer cells;

           Radiotherapy – the use of radiation to kill the cancer. Radiation may be administered externally (e. g. x-ray) or via a drug that targets the cancer (brachytherapy);

           Hormonal therapy – Some cancers are hormone-sensitive (e. g. prostate and breast);

           Immunotherapy – the use of drugs such as antibodies or cancer vaccines that attack the cancer immunologically; and

           Combinations of any of the above.

           More recently, the use of antibodies plus chemotherapy has emerged as a promising approach to treat cancers.

Use of Immunotherapy in Cancer Treatment

           Cancer develops from a single abnormal cell. Most individuals’ immune systems recognize the cancer cell as a “foreign invader” and destroy it. Under certain conditions, however, when the individual’s immune system is inadequate or when the cancerous cell “fools” the immune system into treating the cell as normal tissue, the cancerous cell will multiply unchecked and over time cancer will develop. Because of the importance of the immune system in protecting against cancer in the natural state, there has been extensive research dedicated to enlisting immunological approaches to treat cancer. These may be summarized as follows:

          Immunoglobulin or Antibody-Based Treatments

           Antibodies are plasma-derived proteins (also called immunoglobulins) that bind or interact with one specific (unique) target. The body synthesizes antibodies to destroy and eliminate any cell or organism that bears (expresses) the target to which the immunoglobulin is specific. After the antibodies have bound to their targets, immune cells (B and T cells and macrophages) effect the destruction of the target cell and remove the debris.

           Scientists have harnessed the body’s tools and are now able to make antibodies against virtually any target. Antibodies are manufactured outside the body, usually in cell lines, in large manufacturing plants. These antibodies are generally monoclonal - and may affect the cancer in a variety of ways:

32


 

 

A monoclonal antibody may attack the tumor cell itself. An example of such a drug is Herceptin trastuzumab (it binds to the HER-2 receptor which is over-expressed in cancerous breast tissue), used in the treatment of certain patients with breast cancer;

       
 

 

The antibody may react against a substance that is secreted by the tumor to enhance its own cancerous capabilities (for example to stimulate the formation of new blood vessels). Avastin bevacizumab (it targets VEGF, a growth factor that stimulates blood vessel formation or angiogenesis), used to treat colon and other cancers, is an example of such a drug;

       
 

 

The antibody may attack a target central to the modulation of the immune system. Although there are no approved therapies available for cancer, there are several products in late stage development including anti-CTLA4 antibodies (Antegren natalizumab targets a receptor in the Integrin family and is approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis).

           We are developing immunoglobulin or antibody-based therapies. We use more than one antibody, which we understand enhances our product vis-à-vis the others discussed above. Moreover, we harvest IgG from human donors, which we think makes our IgG-based therapy safer than others. Our donors are considered healthy and are extensively screened for possible diseases or contaminants.

           Immunoglobulins are also used in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs as an adjuvant therapy. We are active in developing this approach as well.

          Cell-Based Therapies

           There are two basic approaches to this therapy. The first involves “harvesting” the patient’s own immune or other cells, manipulating them outside the body and then returning them to the patient as an anti-cancer therapy. A second approach involves taking “established” immune or other cells and giving them to a cancer patient. Clinical and commercial development of cell-based therapies has been challenging and there are no commercial products in the market at present.

          Tumor Vaccinations

           This is the use of tumor extracts or other substances related to the tumor to induce the patient’s immune system to act against the tumor. Such vaccines would work in a manner similar to any other vaccine (e.g. rubella, varicella) except that the target is an internal “invader”, the cancer, rather than an external pathogen such as a virus. To date, only two cancer vaccines are commercially available (Melacine, sold by GlaxoSmithKline in Canada to treat melanoma and Merck’s Gardasil® human papilloma virus vaccine to prevent cervical cancer) . We are also pursuing novel ways to leverage our knowledge of the immune system, IgG biology, and the cellular immune response in order to develop cancer vaccines.

33


          Immune Modulators

           Small stretches of nucleic acids have been shown to be immunostimulatory . These molecules affect the innate immune response by means of so called “pattern recognition receptors”. Several therapies based on this concept are in clinical development.

Stage III and Stage IV Melanoma

           Melanoma is a serious skin cancer that originates from the transformation (e.g., conversion from normal cells to cancerous cells) of melanocytes, the skin’s pigment (melanin) producing cells. In 2002, the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) published a revised staging system for melanoma comprising five different stages of the degree of the disease (Stages 0 through IV).

           Current therapies for melanoma, especially those available for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV metastatic melanoma, are unsatisfactory. Chemotherapy, with or without the addition of biologics, have improved survival only slightly, if at all, and the overall prognosis in these patients is poor. Interferon (IFN), interleukin-2 (IL-2) and dacarbazine are the most commonly prescribed therapeutics for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma. Their efficacy is moderate and these drugs are plagued by significant side effects. Newer therapies, including monoclonal antibodies and vaccines, are still in development stage. Accordingly, new approaches for the treatment of melanoma are being actively pursued and metastatic melanoma remains a major unmet medical need.

          According to the American Cancer Society (ACS):

  • there were 62,160 new cases of melanoma diagnosed in the U.S. during 2006; and

  • the incidence of melanoma in the U.S. has doubled since 1973 and has doubled around the world as well.

           If recognized early, melanoma is curable by surgery alone. Most new cases are, in fact, cured surgically. For Stage 0, simple excision is 100% effective. For Stage I melanoma, surgery is also almost 100% effective.

           Melanoma can be a particularly aggressive cancer. Although melanoma accounts for only 4% of all skin cancers, it accounts for 80% of all skin cancer deaths. Once the disease has spread, the prognosis worsens dramatically. There have been no significant advances in improving the survival of patients with advanced melanoma (Stages II to IV) in the ten last years and limited success in improving their quality of life. We are committed to developing better and safer immune-mediated approaches to treat melanoma and other cancers.

           We believe that the U.S. melanoma market will continue to grow significantly in the next few years as a result of:

34


  • ozone depletion;

  • increased exposure to the sun; and

  • population growth in the sunbelt.

           Market researchers estimate the number of melanoma cases will grow from 731,000 cases in 2004 to over 1,000,000 cases in 2010.

           According to Navigant Consulting, the worldwide melanoma market is expected to double from $265 million in 2004 to over $600 million in 2009. Experts estimate that it will exceed $1 billon in 2010. The U.S. accounts for close to 50% of the worldwide melanoma market.

Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IgG)

           Intravenous immunoglobulins are manufactured from human plasma. More than 12 million liters of source plasma are collected annually in the U.S. Virtually all this plasma is collected from paid donors.

           The plasma industry has existed for more than 50 years and has developed substantial experience and know-how in methods to attract, recruit and retain donors. The industry recruits individuals to donate plasma for the manufacture of standard plasma products as well as other individuals who agree to be immunized prior to the donation of plasma for the production of specific immunoglobulin preparations (e.g., rabies immune globulin, Rh immune globulin, hepatitis B immune globulin, etc.). This also includes recruiting specific patients whose plasma contains commercially valuable constituents, particularly for use as control reagents in the diagnostic field and for research (e.g., patients with anti-mitochondrial antibodies, patients with various hyperglobulinemic syndromes, etc.).

           Plasma for manufacture into plasma derivatives is collected by plasmapheresis . This is a process where the donor is connected to a machine for about 40 minutes. The machine extracts plasma, and returns the blood’s cellular components to the donor automatically. Plasma collected by this approach is termed source plasma . On average, about 800 to 850 mls of plasma are “harvested” per donation. Donors may donate twice per week and are monitored with an FDA-mandated series of tests with every donation which includes a plasma protein determination and testing for transmissible diseases. There is substantial literature going back more than 30 years indicating that regular plasmapheresis donors suffer no ill effects from this activity.

35


Strategy

           Our business objective is to become a recognized leader in the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. We intend to pursue our objective by implementing the following key strategies:

          Market Introduction of VitiGam™ Through Its Designation as an “Orphan Drug”

           In August of 2007, we received Orphan Drug Status by the FDA VitiGam™ for the treatment of Stage IIB to Stage IV metastatic melanoma. Orphan Drug Status is granted by the FDA to promote the development of drugs for diseases affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. Orphan Drug Status provides us with the following:

  • seven year period of market exclusivity;

  • waiver of fees required for FDA filings and registrations; and

  • tax incentives for up to 50% of clinical development costs.

           We are currently also applying for Orphan Drug Designation for VitiGam™ for Stage IIB to Stage IV metastatic melanoma in the E.U. and its member states. Similar to the FDA, the European Medicines Agency (“ EMEA ”) grants Orphan Drug Designation to promote the development of drugs for diseases with a prevalence of fewer than 5 cases per 10,000 inhabitants. If granted, Orphan Drug Designation would provide us with the following:

  • ten year period of market exclusivity;

  • fee reductions;

  • protocol assistance (scientific advice); and

  • European Community and member state specific incentives.

          Leverage Our Capabilities in Order to Bring to Market Novel and Improved Cancer Therapy Products

           We intend to leverage our IgG-based technology, the expertise of our development team and Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld, M.D., F.R.C.P., a world renowned immunologist.

36


           Leverage Our Research and Development Efforts to Attract Collaborative Partners to Assist Us

           We intend to utilize our research and development efforts to attract collaborative partners with expertise in, and resources necessary for, clinical trials and manufacturing. By entering into collaborative arrangements, we anticipate that we will gain access to sales, marketing, and other resources to expedite commercialization of our product candidates.

           Continue to Leverage Our Technology to Develop Additional Products

          We intend to build upon our technology to develop the following:

Next generation (recombinant) VitiGam™ - VitiGam™ is currently manufactured as a mixture that largely consists of IgG molecules (antibodies of the IgG type). We anticipate that within this mixture, only a subset of IgG molecules will be responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™. “Next generation” VitiGam™ will be composed of only the IgGs required to exert the anti-melanoma effect , thereby creating a more effective compound. Identifying the relevant IgGs may also permit cost reductions;

Cancer vaccines based on VitiGam™ - An “off-the-shelf” cancer vaccine is considered a “silver bullet” in cancer therapy. We anticipate that based on our evolving understanding of the specific IgG molecules responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™, we may be in a position to identify the corresponding antigens that may be used to develop melanoma cancer vaccines; and

Anti-angiogenesis - We are developing additional novel IgG-based therapies for cancer and other diseases. These therapies are based on the disruption of the blood supply to cells. Our scientists have shown that several mechanisms may be involved in mediating the anti-cancer effects of IgG-based immunotherapies. Angiogenesis is one of a number of well known pathways to deprive cells of their blood supply.

Research and Development Program

           Foundational Research

           Prior to our acquisition of ARP intellectual property by us, ARP scientists conducted extensive pre-clinical research to test the effectiveness of IgG immunotherapy in treating cancer. They have employed mouse models of various types of cancers as well as various types of human cancers introduced into these mice. They have investigated the effectiveness of IgG treatment at various stages of disease progression, using alternative dosages and routes of administration. These pre-clinical and preliminary experiments have shown that IgG treatment prevents metastases and tumor recurrence for a broad spectrum of cancers with few or no side effects.

37


           Most pre-clinical experiments were conducted using a standard dosage of 2.0 grams per kilogram body weight. Additional experiments have shown that our proposed therapy is effective with low doses of IgG representing 1% (20 milligrams per kilogram body weight) of the standard IgG dosage. These experiments suggest that IgG treatment could be affordably administered as a preventive measure. IgG has been shown in mice experiments to be effective when administered subcutaneously, intravenously, or through intra-cavitary injection. The option of alternative routes of administration dramatically improves ease-of-use and enables the treatment of previously untreatable conditions such as intra-peritoneal spread (i.e. ovarian carcinoma). IgG has also been shown to be effective when administered as a whole molecule or as a fraction.

Product Development

           Our near term focus is to demonstrate efficacy of IgG-based cancer immunotherapy in human clinical trials. Efficacy is the ability of a drug or other treatments to produce the desired result when taken by its intended users. If ultimately proven to be successful, and we can provide no assurance that it will be, we could be well-positioned to enter into a licensing agreement with one or more major pharmaceutical partners for late stage clinical development and/or commercial market development and sales.

           IgG immunotherapy will require regulatory approval before being commercially marketed for human therapeutic use. Clinical trials generally include three phases that together may take several years to complete. Phase I clinical studies (toxicity trials) are primarily conducted to establish the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose, or MTD. Phase II studies are designed to determine preliminary efficacy and establish dosing. Phase III studies are conducted to demonstrate therapeutic efficacy in a statistically significant manner at the levels of optimal dose, method or route of delivery into the body, and the schedule of administration. Once clinical trials are completed successfully, products may receive regulatory approval. See “ Business—Government Regulation ”.

           We are pursuing the development of IgG-based technology to develop therapies for the treatment of melanoma, as well as therapies directed toward disrupting the blood supply to cancers, referred to as anti-angiogenesis therapies.

           Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to two percent of the general population. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities. Based on this, we are developing VitiGam™ to initially address Stage III and Stage IV melanoma and possibly earlier stages of melanoma at a future time.

           In June 2007, we completed a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial designed to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” IgG (collected and manufactured from general population donors, which may have included donors with vitiligo) in patients with

38


prostate cancer, colon cancer and melanoma. In this trial, no serious untoward effects of IgGs were noted. In one patient with melanoma, the cancer remained stable or improved over eight cycles of therapy (approximately ten months).

           In addition to the pre-clinical evidence we have accumulated using vitiligo-derived plasma, the above observations provide further validation for our plan to develop VitiGam™.

           We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application, or IND , for VitiGam™ in the near future with the intent to conduct a Phase I/II trial to evaluate VitiGam™ in patients with Stage III and IV melanoma. We estimate that the costs of this Phase I/II will be substantial and the timing of initiation of the Phase I/II trials will be based on several major factors, including our ability to attract sufficient financing on acceptable terms.

           We are developing additional novel IgG-based therapies for cancer and other diseases. These therapies are based on the disruption of the blood supply to cells. Our scientists have shown that several mechanisms may be involved in mediating the anti-cancer effects of IgG-based immunotherapies. Angiogenesis is one of a number of well known pathways to deprive cells of their blood supply.

           In June 2007, we announced the discovery of proprietary IgG sub-fractions which contain potent anti-angiogenic properties. These sub-fractions may be used for treatment of disorders resulting from neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels or angiogenesis).

           We have established a pre-clinical development program to define and characterize these anti-angiogenic anti-cancer fractions and to test their biological activity in animal models. We believe that successfully developed therapies derived from our novel IgG sub-fractions have the potential to address multi-billion dollar markets. For example, Avastin®, also known as Bevacizumab , counteracts VEGF, a growth factor which stimulates neovascularization, and is used to treat colon and other cancers. Sales for Avastin® in 2007 were in excess of $2 billion.

           We are also contemplating conducting additional clinical trials to test new formulations and/or combinations of IgG-based immunotherapies and to test these formulations and/or methods for different cancers at different stages of disease progression with varying dosages and routes of administration. To achieve this, we may elect to partner with a pharmaceutical company to conduct these further clinical trials, in order to attain broad-based regulatory approval.

           We expect that it will take a number of years to receive final approval and registration of our IgG preparation for commercial use as an anti-cancer agent. Our strategy is to collaborate with a suitable partner to support late stage (Phase III) clinical development, registration and/or sales for our IgG-based cancer products.

39


           We have spent approximately $2.7 million through September 30, 2007 on our research and development.

Raw Materials

           IgGs are manufactured from human plasma. More than 12 million liters of source plasma are collected annually in the U.S. Virtually all this plasma is collected from paid donors. The U.S. supplies the majority of the plasma needed for the in excess of $6 billion plasma-derivatives market worldwide. The largest producers of IgG are CSL-Behring, a subsidiary of CSL LTD., Baxter Bioscience, a business of Baxter International Inc., and Talecris Biotherapeutics, Inc. (formerly the plasma business of Bayer A.G.’s Biological Products business unit). In addition, there are numerous smaller suppliers serving the market. We generally depend upon a limited number of suppliers for our IgGs. Although alternative sources of supply for these materials are generally available, we could incur significant costs and disruptions in changing suppliers. The termination of our relationship with our suppliers or the failure of these suppliers to meet our requirements for raw materials on a timely and cost-effective basis could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Patents and Licenses

           To the best of our knowledge, we are the only entity to own issued patents covering the use of IgG-based therapies for the treatment of cancer. We have been issued two U.S. patents that cover the use of basic IgG to treat cancers.

U.S. Patent 5,562,902, “Immunotherapeutic Method of Treating Cancerous Disease by Administration of Intravenous Immunoglobulin” claims the use of intravenous IgG or fragments to inhibit melanoma metastasis. The claims further recite the intracavitary and subcutaneous administration of intravenous IgG or fragments to inhibit tumor metastasis. The patent was issued on October 8, 1996.

U.S. Patent 5,965,130, “Immunotherapeutic Method of Treating Cancerous Disease by Administration of Gamma Globulins” claims the use of 2g/kg bodyweight/month to inhibit the growth of a primary tumor or metastases. The claims further recite the intracavitary and subcutaneous administration of intravenous IgG or fragments to inhibit tumor metastasis. The patent was issued on October 12, 1999.

           In December 2006, we filed two Continuations in Part (“ CIPs ”) to these patents. The first CIP is titled “Administration of Gamma Globulins to Treat Metastatic Melanoma” and builds on the pre-clinical work conducted at GammaCan and substantiates these findings with data from our non-FDA clinical trials. The second CIP is titled “Administration of Gamma Globulins to Treat Cancer” and provides experimental data supporting the use of IgG-based therapy for colorectal cancers.

40


           Consistent with a strategy to seek protection in key markets worldwide, we have been issued or are prosecuting international counterparts to our issued U.S. patents.

           We have filed two additional U.S. patent applications that cover both “composition of matter” and “methods” for using IgG manufactured from donors with Vitiligo (VitiGam™) and its use in melanoma. The prosecution of these and related patents is taking place in the U.S. and worldwide.

           We have also filed one additional U.S. patent application covering novel IgG sub-fractions with potent anti-angiogenic properties. In June 2007, we discovered that IgGs contain sub-fractions with potent anti-angiogenic properties which may have application in disorders of neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels), including cancer and other diseases. We anticipate that this discovery may be developed into broad-based cancer therapies and other therapies that address non-cancer disorders.

           We have also filed a patent application for the utilization of IgG therapy as a potential treatment of Avian Influenza.

          Our patent strategy is as follows:

• Aggressively protect all current and future technological developments to assure strong and broad protection by filing patents and/or continuations in part as appropriate;

• Protect technological developments at various levels, in a complementary manner, including the base technology, as well as specific applications of the technology; and

• Establish comprehensive coverage in the U.S. and in all relevant foreign markets in anticipation of future commercialization opportunities.

           We believe that our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain patent protection for our intellectual property. Our patent coverage includes a wide range of matters including but not limited to: a novel method of administering to a mammal a preparation of IgG for inhibiting tumor metastasis, for treating primary tumors, and for a broad spectrum of cancerous diseases. Our patents will both expire in November 2014.

           We believe anyone selling IgG for treatment of cancer is subject to these patents. However, the validity and breadth of claims in medical technology patents involve complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, may be highly uncertain. No assurance can be given that any patents based on pending patent applications or any future patent applications by us will be issued, that the scope of any patent protection will exclude competitors or provide competitive advantages to us, that any of the patents that have been or may be issued to us will be held valid if subsequently challenged or that others will not claim rights in or ownership of the patents and other proprietary rights held or licensed by us. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others have not

41


developed or will not develop similar products, duplicate any of our technology or design around any patents that have been or may be issued to us. Since patent applications in the United States are maintained in secrecy for the initial period of time following filing, we also cannot be certain that others did not first file applications for inventions covered by our pending patent applications, nor can we be certain that we will not infringe any patents that may be issued to others on such applications.

           We also rely on trade secrets and unpatentable know-how that we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements. Our policy is to require our employees, consultants, contractors, manufacturers, outside scientific collaborators and sponsored researchers, board of directors, technical review board and other advisors to execute confidentiality agreements upon the commencement of employment or consulting relationships with us. These agreements provide that all confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the course of the individual’s relationship with us is to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific limited circumstances. We also require signed confidentiality or material transfer agreements from any company that is to receive our confidential information. In the case of employees, consultants and contractors, the agreements provide that all inventions conceived by the individual while rendering services to us shall be assigned to us as the exclusive property of our company. There can be no assurance, however, that all persons who we desire to sign such agreements will sign, or if they do, that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets or unpatentable know-how will not otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors.

           Our success will also depend in part on our ability to commercialize our technology without infringing the proprietary rights of others. Although we have conducted freedom of use patent searches, no assurance can be given that patents do not exist or could not be filed which would have an adverse affect on our ability to market our technology or maintain our competitive position with respect to our technology. If our technology components, products, processes or other subject matter are claimed under other existing United States or foreign patents or are otherwise protected by third party proprietary rights, we may be subject to infringement actions. In such event, we may challenge the validity of such patents or other proprietary rights or we may be required to obtain licenses from such companies in order to develop, manufacture or market our technology. There can be no assurances that we would be able to obtain such licenses or that such licenses, if available, could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Furthermore, the failure to either develop a commercially viable alternative or obtain such licenses could result in delays in marketing our proposed technology or the inability to proceed with the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we are required to defend ourselves against charges of patent infringement or to protect our proprietary rights against third parties, substantial costs will be incurred regardless of whether we are successful. Such proceedings are typically protracted with no certainty of success. An adverse outcome could subject us to

42


significant liabilities to third parties and force us to curtail or cease our development and commercialization of our technology.

Partnerships and Collaborative Arrangements

           We anticipate that we will enter into strategic relationships for plasma collection and for the manufacture of VitiGam™. There is considerable specialized expertise associated with the collection and manufacture (fractionation) of plasma products. There are also significant expenses, capital expenditures and infrastructure involved in the manufacture of plasma. We believe that working together with strategic partners will expedite product formulation, production and approval.


           In October 2006, we entered into a strategic agreement with Life Therapeutics, Inc. (“ Life ”) for the purpose of collecting source plasma from individuals with Vitiligo. Under the agreement, Life will be responsible for the collection, storage, quality control, import/export, delivery, and supply of plasma to us in such amounts as required to complete Phase I and Phase II clinical trials for VitiGam™. Life is a U.S./Australian

43


company that specializes in niche therapeutic hyperimmune products. Life currently operates 13 plasma collection centers in eight American states and has considerable experience recruiting and collecting “hard to find plasma donors”. Life is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia and operates facilities in the U.S. and in Australia. In the event that Life, for any reason, fails to provide us with its total required plasma for the timely initiation and completion of Phase I and Phase II clinical testing for VitiGam™, we will have the unrestricted right to acquire plasma from other sources. We recognize the importance of having access to sufficient plasma for the clinical development of VitiGam™ as well as for commercial sale. Life and GammaCan have been approved for a $1 million dollar grant for VitiGam’s™ Phase I and Phase II clinical program by the BIRD Foundation, an Israeli Government non-profit organization that promotes U.S./Israeli joint programs.

           On September 6, 2007, we entered into an agreement for the purchase and sale of blood plasma with DCI Management Group, LLC (“ DCI ”). Under the terms of the agreement, DCI will collect plasma from vitiligo donors at DCI operated FDA-approved, IQPP certified donor centers for the manufacture of VitiGam™. The entry into this agreement is part of our revised strategy to assure a continued and uninterrupted supply of Vitiligo plasma for the clinical development and long-term commercial sale of VitiGam™ as we gear up to submit an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) for VitiGam™.

           We have engaged INC Research to assist us in conducting our clinical trials. INC Research is a therapeutically focused contract research organization engaged in conducting global Phase I - Phase IV clinical development programs in therapeutic areas including oncology. INC Research is headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina and has 24 offices with a presence in 36 locations worldwide.

           We have also engaged BioSolutions Services, LLC (“ BioSolutions ”) for various projects to assist us with the commercialization of our anti-cancer immunotherapy to treat metastatic cancer. The first project relates to regulatory consulting services to be provided by BioSolutions in connection with the application for an IND with the FDA for VitiGam™.

           On March 27, 2008, our Subsidiary sent a notice of termination, effective March 31, 2008, to Tel Ha’Shomer-Medical Research Infrastructure and Services LTD. (“ THM ”) terminating the Research and Licensing Agreement originally entered into on December 13, 2005, as amended during the term (the “ THM Agreement ”). Under the THM Agreement, the Subsidiary commissioned THM to conduct certain IgG related research activities in return for which THM was entitled to research fees, royalties and warrants. With the termination of the THM Agreement, the warrants previously granted were cancelled. Termination by the Subsidiary of the THM Agreement was based, in addition to other considerations, on our decision to increase the speed and efficiency at which third party research is conducted by shifting research activities from a university-driven model to a primarily contract research organization and otherwise commercially-driven model. We have already transitioned the majority of our research activities to contract research organizations. In addition, we are also evaluating whether to establish our own research facility to expedite research activities.

      Most recently, on May 30, 2008, we entered into a Contract Manufacture Agreement with Bio Products Laboratory (“ BPL ”) engaging BPL as our manufacturer of VitiGam™ from plasma derived from Vitiligo donors. BPL is a division of National Health Service Blood and Transplant, a unit of the United Kingdom National Health Service and is a leading manufacturer of plasma-based products distributed worldwide. The agreement further provides that BPL will manufacture VitiGam™ utilizing its proprietary GAMMAPLEX process and will supply us with VitiGam™ for our immediate clinical testing needs and for future commercial sale. In addition, the agreement provides that BPL will make available to us technical, scientific and other data, including specific support for our U.S. regulatory filings and future regulatory approvals in other markets. Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to pay to BPL certain manufacturing and service fees as well as royalties for the manufacture of VitiGam™.

Government Regulation

The Drug and Therapeutic Product Development Process

           The FDA requires that pharmaceutical and certain other therapeutic products undergo significant clinical experimentation and clinical testing prior to their marketing or introduction to the general public. Clinical testing, known as clinical trials or clinical studies , is either conducted internally by life science, pharmaceutical, or biotechnology companies or is conducted on behalf of these companies by contract research organizations.

44


           The process of conducting clinical studies is highly regulated by the FDA, as well as by other governmental and professional bodies. Below we describe the principal framework in which clinical studies are conducted, as well as describe a number of the parties involved in these studies.

           Protocols. Before commencing human clinical studies, the sponsor of a new drug or therapeutic product must submit an investigational new drug application, or IND, to the FDA. The application contains what is known in the industry as a protocol . A protocol is the blueprint for each drug study. The protocol sets forth, among other things, the following:

  • who must be recruited as qualified participants;

  • how often to administer the drug or product;

  • what tests to perform on the participants; and

  • what dosage of the drug or amount of the product to give to the participants.

           Institutional Review Board . An institutional review board is an independent committee of professionals and lay persons which reviews clinical research studies involving human beings and is required to adhere to guidelines issued by the FDA. The institutional review board does not report to the FDA, but its records are audited by the FDA. Its members are not appointed by the FDA. All clinical studies must be approved by an institutional review board. The institutional review board’s role is to protect the rights of the participants in the clinical studies. It approves the protocols to be used, the advertisements which the company or contract research organization conducting the study proposes to use to recruit participants, and the form of consent which the participants will be required to sign prior to their participation in the clinical studies.

           Clinical Trials . Human clinical studies or testing of a potential product are generally done in three stages known as Phase I through Phase III testing. The names of the phases are derived from the regulations of the FDA. Generally, there are multiple studies conducted in each phase.

Phase I . Phase I studies involve testing a drug or product on a limited number of healthy participants, typically 24 to 100 people at a time. Phase I studies determine a product’s basic safety and how the product is absorbed by, and eliminated from, the body. This phase lasts an average of six months to a year;

Phase II . Phase II trials involve testing up to 200 participants at a time who may suffer from the targeted disease or condition. Phase II testing typically lasts an average of one to two years. In Phase II, the drug is tested to determine its safety and effectiveness for treating a specific illness or condition. Phase II testing also involves determining acceptable dosage levels of the drug. If Phase II studies show that a new drug has an acceptable range of safety risks and probable effectiveness, a company

45


will continue to review the substance in Phase III studies.

Phase III . Phase III studies involve testing large numbers of participants, typically several hundred to several thousand persons. The purpose is to verify effectiveness and long-term safety on a large scale. These studies generally last two to three years. Phase III studies are conducted at multiple locations or sites. Like the other phases, Phase III requires the site to keep detailed records of data collected and procedures performed.

           New Drug Approval. The results of the clinical trials are submitted to the FDA as part of a new drug application (“ NDA ”). Following the completion of Phase III studies, assuming the sponsor of a potential product in the United States believes it has sufficient information to support the safety and effectiveness of its product, it submits an NDA to the FDA requesting that the product be approved for marketing. The application is a comprehensive, multi-volume filing that includes the results of all clinical studies, information about the drug’s composition, and the sponsor’s plans for producing, packaging and labeling the product. The FDA’s review of an application can take a few months to many years, with the average review lasting 18 months. Once approved, drugs and other products may be marketed in the United States, subject to any conditions imposed by the FDA.

           Phase IV . The FDA may require that the sponsor conduct additional clinical trials following new drug approval. The purpose of these trials, known as Phase IV studies, is to monitor long-term risks and benefits, study different dosage levels or evaluate safety and effectiveness. In recent years, the FDA has increased its reliance on these trials. Phase IV studies usually involve thousands of participants. Phase IV studies also may be initiated by the company sponsoring the new drug to gain broader market value for an approved drug. For example, large-scale trials may also be used to prove effectiveness and safety of new forms of drug delivery for approved drugs. Examples may be using an inhalation spray versus taking tablets or a sustained-release form of medication versus capsules taken multiple times per day.

           Biologics License Application. Once clinical trials are completed and the results tabulated and analyzed, a Biologics License Application (“ BLA ”) is submitted to the FDA. The application presents to FDA reviewers the entire history or the “whole story” of the drug product including animal studies/human studies, manufacturing, and labeling/medical claims. Before the FDA applies its scientific technical expertise to the review of the application, it will decide if the application gets a “priority review” or a “standard review”. This classification determines the review timeframe. A priority review is for a drug that appears to represent an advance over available therapy, whereas, a standard review is for a drug that appears to have therapeutic qualities similar to those of an already marketed product. Generally, an advisory committee (the Oncology Drug Advisory Committee, ODAC) will review the BLA and make a recommendation to the FDA. This outside advice is sought so that the FDA will have the benefit of wider expert input. The FDA usually agrees with advisory committee decisions but they are not binding.

46


           The FDA takes action on the BLA after their review is complete. There are three possible actions to be taken by the review team:

• Approved – This indicates to a company that it may now market in the U. S. ;

• Not Approved – This tells a company that the product may not be marketed in the U. S. and is accompanied by a detailed explanation as to why; or

• Approvable – This indicates that the FDA is prepared to approve the application upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. These drug products may not be legally marketed until the deficiencies have been satisfied, as well as any other requirements that may be imposed by the FDA.

           The drug approval process is time-consuming, involves substantial expenditures of resources, and depends upon a number of factors, including the severity of the illness in question, the availability of alternative treatments, and the risks and benefits demonstrated in the clinical trials.

           Orphan Drug Act. The Orphan Drug Act provides incentives to develop and market drugs (“ Orphan Drugs ”) for rare disease conditions in the United States. A drug that receives Orphan Drug designation and is the first product to receive FDA marketing approval for its product claim is entitled to a seven-year exclusive marketing period in the United States for that product claim. A drug which is considered by the FDA to be different than such FDA-approved Orphan Drug is not barred from sale in the United States during such exclusive marketing period even if it receives approval for the same claim. We can provide no assurance that the Orphan Drug Act’s provisions will be the same at the time of the approval, if any, of our products.

           Orphan Drug Designation. The E.U. offers a range of incentives to encourage the development of orphan drugs for rare disease conditions in the E.U and its member states. A drug that receives orphan drug designation and is the first product to receive EMEA marketing approval for its product claim is entitled to a ten-year exclusive marketing period in the E.U and its member states for that product claim. A drug which is considered by the EMEA to be different than such EMEA-approved orphan drug is not barred from sale in the E.U and its member states during such exclusive marketing period even if it receives approval for the same claim. We can provide no assurance that the above provisions will be the same at the time of the approval, if any, of our products.

Other Regulations

           Various federal and state laws, regulations, and recommendations relating to safe working conditions, laboratory practices, the experimental use of animals, and the purchase, storage, movement, import, export, use, and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances, including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents, used in connection with our research are applicable to our activities. They

47


include, among others, the United States Atomic Energy Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, and Resources Conservation and Recovery Act, national restrictions on technology transfer, import, export, and customs regulations, and other present and possible future local, state, or federal regulation. The extent of governmental regulation which might result from future legislation or administrative action cannot be accurately predicted.

Competition

Competition in General

           Competition in the area of biomedical and pharmaceutical research and development is intense and significantly depends on scientific and technological factors. These factors include the availability of patent and other protection for technology and products, the ability to commercialize technological developments and the ability to obtain governmental approval for testing, manufacturing and marketing. Our competitors include major pharmaceutical, medical products, chemical and specialized biotechnology companies, many of which have financial, technical and marketing resources significantly greater than ours. In addition, many biotechnology companies have formed collaborations with large, established companies to support research, development and commercialization of products that may be competitive with ours. Academic institutions, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations are also conducting research activities and seeking patent protection and may commercialize products on their own or through joint ventures. We are aware of certain other products manufactured or under development by competitors that are used for the treatment of the diseases and health conditions that we have targeted for product development. We can provide no assurance that developments by others will not render our technology obsolete or noncompetitive, that we will be able to keep pace with new technological developments or that our technology will be able to supplant established products and methodologies in the therapeutic areas that are targeted by us. The foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. These companies, as well as academic institutions, governmental agencies and private research organizations, also compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific personnel and consultants.

           Competition within our sector itself is increasing, so we will encounter competition from existing firms that offer competitive solutions in cancer treatment. These competitive companies could develop products that are superior to, or have greater market acceptance, than the products being developed by us. We will have to compete against other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies with greater market recognition and greater financial, marketing and other resources.

           Our competition will be determined in part by the potential indications for which our technology is developed and ultimately approved by regulatory authorities. In addition, the first product to reach the market in a therapeutic or preventive area is often

48


at a significant competitive advantage relative to later entrants to the market. Accordingly, the relative speed with which we, or our potential corporate partners, can develop products, complete the clinical trials and approval processes and supply commercial quantities of the products to the market are expected to be important competitive factors. Our competitive position will also depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific and other personnel, develop effective proprietary products, develop and implement production and marketing plans, obtain and maintain patent protection and secure adequate capital resources. We expect our technology, if approved for sale, to compete primarily on the basis of product efficacy, safety, patient convenience, reliability, value and patent position.

Competition for VitiGam™

           We anticipate VitiGam™ to be a competitive anti-melanoma drug because of its anticipated efficacy and safety profile. Treatment options for Stage III and Stage IV melanoma comprise three drugs from major drug classes as follows:

• Antineoplastics – Antineoplastics include chemotherapeutics (alkylating agents, antimetabolites and antimitotic agents) that are administered intravenously or orally. Generally speaking, they have significant toxicity associated with severe side effects to the patient. Antineoplastics are typically used to treat Stage IV melanoma.

• Immunomodulators – Substances that suppress, stimulate or boost the immune system. These have some efficacy (10% to 20%), with side effects that are moderate compared to antineoplastics.

• Vaccines – Preparations that aim at “coaxing” the patient’s immune system to mount an immune response against the tumor.

           Because of the paucity of safe and effective therapies to treat late stage melanomas, so called “off-label” use of drugs is common and physicians typically use antineoplastics approved for other cancers in treating melanoma.

           Antineoplastics and immunomodulators account for 80% of the treatment for Stage III and Stage IV melanoma. Interferon (IFN), interleukin-2 (IL-2) and dacarbazine are the most commonly prescribed therapeutics in these categories.

• Schering Corporation’s INTRON® A (Interferon alfa-2b, recombinant) dominates the melanoma market with a 46% market share;

• Chiron’s PROLEUKIN® (aldesleukin, recombinant human interleukin-2, rhIL-2) commands approximately 28% of the total melanoma market; and

• Bayer’s DITC–DOME (dacarbazine, alkylating agent) accounts for 9%.

49


           The majority of the remaining 17% of the market is comprised of a group of antineoplastics that are sold by Bristol Myers Squibb, Daiichi, Eli Lilly, and Roche. GlaxoSmithKline is currently the only company selling a melanoma vaccine.

Employees

           We have been successful in retaining the experienced personnel involved in our research and development program. In addition, we believe we have successfully recruited clinical/regulatory, quality assurance and other personnel needed to advance

51


through clinical studies or have engaged the services of experts in the field for these requirements. As of March 31, 2008, we employed seven individuals and engaged the services of several consultants. Of our employees, two were senior management, three were engaged in research and development work, and the remaining in administration work.

Facilities

           Our principal executive offices are located in approximately 1337 square feet of office space in Kiryat Ono, Israel. The lease commenced on August 10, 2006 and lasts for a period of 36 months. The aggregate annual base rental for this space is $26,827. Since June 8, 2006, we leased a suite in New York for the use of our CEO which expired on June 30, 2008. We are currently in the process of seeking an alternative space. We believe that our existing facilities are suitable and adequate to meet our current business requirements. In the event that we should require additional or alternative facilities, we believe that such facilities can be obtained on short notice at competitive rates.

Board of Directors and Officers

Officers are elected by, and serve at the discretion of, our board of directors. The board of directors may also appoint additional directors up to the maximum number permitted under our by-laws. A director so chosen or appointed will hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders.

          Each of our executive officers serves at the discretion of our board of directors and holds office until his or her successor is elected or until his or her earlier resignation or removal in accordance with our certificate of incorporation and by-laws.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

          During the year ended September 30, 2007, our board of directors held 10 meetings and took actions by written consent on 26 occasions.

Committees of the Board of Directors

          On January 11, 2005, we established an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee, which is responsible, respectively, for the matters described below.

          Audit Committee

          The Audit Committee is responsible for the following:

 

 

 

 

reviewing the results of the audit engagement with the independent auditors;

 

 

 

 

identifying irregularities in the management of our business, and suggesting an appropriate course of action;

 

 

 

 

reviewing the adequacy, scope, and results of the internal accounting controls and procedures;

 

 

 

 

reviewing the degree of independence of the auditors, as well as the nature and scope of our relationship with our independent auditors;

 

 

 

 

reviewing the auditors’ fees; and

 

 

 

 

recommending the engagement of auditors to the full board of directors.

          A charter has been adopted to govern the Audit Committee. The Board has determined that each of the members of the Audit Committee is an unrelated, outside member with no other affiliation with us and is independent as defined by the rules of the SEC. The Board has determined that Messrs. Josef Neuhaus and David DeMedio are “audit committee financial experts” as defined by the SEC. The Audit Committee was formed on January 11, 2005.

          Compensation Committee

          The Compensation Committee determines the salaries and incentive compensation of our officers and provide recommendations for the salaries and incentive compensation of its other employees and consultants. The members of the compensation committee are Albert Passner, Josef Neuhaus, and David DeMedio. The compensation of our executive officers is generally determined by the compensation committee of the board of directors, subject to applicable employment agreements. Our compensation programs are intended to enable the attraction, motivation, reward, and retention of the management talent required to achieve corporate objectives and thereby increase stockholder value. Our policy has been to provide incentives to our senior management to achieve both short-term and long-term objectives and to reward exceptional performance and contributions to the development of our business. To attain these objectives, the executive compensation program may include a competitive base salary, cash incentive bonuses, and stock-based compensation.

57


          Relationship of Compensation to Performance and Compensation of Executive Officers

          The compensation committee annually establishes, subject to the approval of our board of directors and any applicable employment agreements, the salaries that will be paid to our executive officers during the coming year. In setting salaries, the compensation committee intends to take into account several factors, including the following:

 

 

 

 

competitive compensation data;

 

 

 

 

the extent to which an individual may participate in the stock plans which may be maintained by us; and

 

 

 

 

qualitative factors bearing on an individual’s experience, responsibilities, management and leadership abilities, and job performance.


Code of Ethics

          We have adopted a Code of Ethics for our officers, directors and employees. A copy of the Code of Ethics is located at our website at www.gammacan.com.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

          Our policy is to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are more favorable, or no less favorable, than those available from unaffiliated third parties. Based on our experience in the business sectors in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met this policy standard at the time they occurred.

          Mr. Yair Aloni, a former director of our company, and Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld, M.D., the Chief Scientist of our subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd., are authorized signatories of ARP Biomed Ltd. (“ ARP ”) for the Intellectual Property Purchase and Sale Agreement (“ Purchase Agreement ”) we entered into with ARP on June 11, 2004. Mr. Aloni is the Chief Executive Officer of ARP and Professor Shoenfeld is an advisor to ARP. As a result of the Purchase Agreement, ARP owns 12.5% of our subsidiary, Gammacan Ltd.

          On December 13, 2007, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement made as of November 26, 2007 with ARP. The Share Purchase Agreement provided that, subject to fulfillment of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of an Israeli tax ruling, ARP will sell to us 12.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our subsidiary such that at closing we will own 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of our subsidiary. In consideration for such sale, we agreed to issue to ARP, at closing, 2,697,535 shares of our common stock, a warrant to acquire 1,123,973 shares of our common stock and an additional warrant to acquire 449,589 shares of our common stock. Both warrants are exercisable for five years at an exercise price equal to the average last sales price of our common stock during the sixty trading days prior to November 26, 2007. The warrants are subject to adjustment for, among other things, stock splits, stock dividends, distr ibutions and reclassifications. In the case of the warrant to acquire 1,123,973 shares, if there is a change of control (as defined therein), then subject to certain restrictions, the warrant shall be deemed exercised in full and no exercise price shall be payable by the holder. The securities (and underlying securities) to be issued under the Share Purchase Agreement will also be subject to a separate lock up agreement and registration rights agreement upon issuance. In connection with the Share Purchase Agreement, ARP and our subsidiary agreed to enter into an amendment of the agreement for the purchase and sale of intellectual property from ARP, which amendment specifically delineates clarity of title and related issues to certain intellectual property sold under the original agreement.

          On August 11, 2008, we executed an Amendment Agreement with ARP made as of June, 2008 (the “ Amendment Agreement ”) amending the Share Purchase Agreement and certain other ancillary agreements entered into at the same time. In consideration for the sale, according to the Amendment Agreement, the number of shares of common stock issuable to ARP at closing and upon receipt of an Israeli tax ruling has been increased to 3,389,902 shares of our common stock and no warrants will be issued. Further, the Amendment Agreement amended the Lock-Up Agreement dated as of November 26, 2007 between ARP and the Company by increasing the number of locked-up shares that can be sold during the period after May 26, 2009 from one-sixth per month to one-eight per month. The Amendment Agreement also amended the effective date of the Agreement to Sale of Intellectual Property Agreement dated as of November 26, 2007 between ARP and the Company to the earlier of the receipt of the Israeli tax ruling and June 15, 2008. Subsequently on August 13, 2008, we conducted a closing of the Share Purchase Agreement, as amended by the Amendment Agreement.

          On March 1, 2005, we and our subsidiary entered into an agreement appointing Ms. Caplan as Vice President of Business Development according to which Ms. Caplan, received a salary of $4,000 per month for at least 20 hours of service per week.

          On June 6, 2005, we and our subsidiary appointed Ms. Caplan as acting Chief Executive Officer of both companies, effective July 2, 2005 at a salary of $6,475 per month. On April 15, 2006, Ms. Caplan resigned from her position as the acting Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Caplan remained as the Chief Executive Officer of our subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd.

          On October 31, 2006, we entered into a consulting agreement with Steven Katz and Associates, Inc., (“ SKA ”) a company wholly-owned by Steven Katz, the Chairman of the Board of GammaCan International, Inc.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

      The selling stockholders are offering 16,583,753 Shares of our common stock. Of the Shares, 16,250,000 Shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “ Private Placement Warrants ”) issued by us in a private placement (the “ 2007 Private Placement ”) of securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), in February 2007, and 250,000 Shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “ Consulting Warrants ” and, together with the Private Placement Warrants, the “ Warrants ”) issued by us to consultants in June 2007 in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

          We have granted registration rights to the purchasers in the 2007 Private Placement under the Securities Act at our expense with respect to the securities acquired in such offering.

          The following table details the name of each selling stockholder, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder and the number of shares of our common stock that may be offered for resale under this prospectus. To the extent permitted by law, the selling stockholders who are not natural persons may distribute shares from time to time, to one or more of their respective affiliates, which may sell shares pursuant to this prospectus. We have registered the shares to permit the selling stockholders and their respective permitted transferees or other successors in interest that receive their shares from selling stockholders after the date of this prospectus to resell the shares. Because each selling stockholder may offer all, some or none of the shares it holds, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares, no definitive estimate as to the number of shares that will be held by each selling stockholder after the offering can be provided. The selling stockholders may from time to time offer all or some of the shares pursuant to this offering.

          The following table has been prepared on the assumption that all shares offered under this prospectus will be sold to parties unaffiliated with the selling stockholders. Except as indicated by footnote, none of the selling stockholders has had a significant relationship with us within the past three years, other than as a result of the ownership of our shares or other securities. Except as indicated by footnote, the selling stockholders have sole voting and investment power with their respective shares. Percentages in the table below are based on 48,348,819 shares of our common stock outstanding as of August 19, 2008 and assume that, except for the shares issuable to a selling stockholder in question, no Warrants are exercised.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

          We are authorized by our certificate of incorporation to issue an aggregate of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of August 19, 2008, 48,348,819 shares of common stock were outstanding and held of record by 32 stockholders and no shares of preferred stock were outstanding.

Common Stock

          Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors. Subject to the prior rights of any class or series of preferred stock which may from time to time be outstanding, if any, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably, dividends when, as, and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose and, upon our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and payment of accrued dividends and liquidation preferences on the preferred stock, if any. Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights and have no rights to convert their common stock into any other securities. The outstanding common stock is validly authorized and issued, fully-paid and nonassessable. In the event we were to elect to sell additional shares of common stock following this offering, investors in this offering would have no prior right to purchase additional shares. As a result, their percentage equity interest in us would be diluted.

          The shares of common stock offered in this offering will be, when issued and paid for, fully paid and not liable for further call or assessment. Holders of the common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than one half of the outstanding shares of common stock, subject to the rights of the holders of the preferred stock, can elect all of our directors, if they choose to do so. In this event, the holders of the remaining shares of common stock would not be able to elect any directors. Except as otherwise required by Delaware law, and subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock, all stockholder action is taken by the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voting as a single class present at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum consisting of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock is present in person or proxy.

Preferred Stock

          Preferred stock may be issued in one or more series and having the rights, privileges and limitations, including voting rights, conversion privileges and redemption rights, as may, from time to time, be determined by the board of directors. Preferred stock may be issued in the future in connection with acquisitions, financings, or other matters as the board of directors deems appropriate. In the event that any shares of preferred stock are to be issued, a certificate of designation containing the rights, privileges and limitations of such series of preferred stock shall be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The effect of such preferred stock is that the board of directors alone, and subject to, Federal securities laws and Delaware law, may be able to authorize the issuance of preferred stock which could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of us without further action by the stockholders, and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of the common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may also adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, including the loss of voting control to others.

Warrants

          At the date hereof, there are Warrants outstanding exercisable for an aggregate of 16,250,000 shares of common stock. The Warrants are exercisable through February 27, 2012 at the exercise price of $0.48 per share, subject to adjustment for, among other things, stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, certain fundamental transactions, issuances of equity securities at effective prices less than the then effective exercise price of the Warrants, and pro rata distributions to stockholders. Further, commencing at any time after the sixteenth month anniversary from the date of issuance of the Warrants, if at the time of exercise, there is no effective Registration Statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, then the Warrants may also be exercised at such time on a “cashless” or net issuance basis. The Warrants contain standard reorganization provisions.

Quotation on OTCBB

          Our common stock is quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol “GCAN”.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

          The transfer agent and registrar for the common stock is PACWest Transfer LLC located at 2510 Pine Road North, Spokane Valley, WA 99206.

70


Directors’ Limitation Of Liability

          Our certificate of incorporation and by-laws include provisions to (1) indemnify the directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, including circumstances under which indemnification is otherwise discretionary and (2) eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty, except for liability for breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts, or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, violations under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. We believe that these provisions are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

          We have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors which provides that we will indemnify our directors and advance expenses to our directors, to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware.

          We have directors and officers liability insurance in an amount of $10 million.

          Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons as stated in the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the Commission, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

71


SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

          Sales of substantial numbers of shares of our common stock in the public market following this offering, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of shares.

          Assuming the exercise in full of the Warrants, immediately following the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and further assuming no exercise of options outstanding following this offering, we will have an aggregate of 64,848,819 shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of this offering. Except for 3,389,902 shares, all these shares (including the 83,753 shares sold in this offering) will be freely tradable under a currently effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 (subject to the lock-up agreements), unless purchased by “affiliates” as that term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, who may sell only the volume of share described below and whose sales would be subject to additional restrictions described below.

Eligibility of Restricted Shares for Sale in the Public Market

          Immediately after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will have outstanding 48,348,819 shares of common stock. Except for 3,389,902 shares, all shares, including 83,753 of the shares being offered in this offering, will be freely tradable under a currently effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 subject to the lock-up agreements under purchased by “affiliates” as that term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, who may sell subject to the restrictions contained in Rule 144. Giving effect to the exercise in full of the Warrants, immediately after the commencement of this offering, we would have outstanding 64,848,819 shares of common stock.

Rule 144

          The SEC has recently adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008 and apply to securities acquired both before and after that date. Under these amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (1) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, (2) we are subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale and (3) if the sale occurs prior to satisfaction of a one-year holding period, we provide current information at the time of sale.

          Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

  • 1% of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding, which as of August 19, 2008 would equal 483,488 shares; or

  • the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.

provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale. However, since our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, which is not an “automated quotation system,” our stockholders will not be able to rely on the market-based volume limitation described in the second bullet above. If, in the future, our securities are listed on an exchange or quoted on an automatic quotation system, then our stockholders would be able to rely on the market-based volume limitation. Unless and until our stock is so listed or quoted, our stockholders can only rely on the percentage based volume limitation described in the first bullet above.

          Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.

Rule 701

          In general, under Rule 701, any of our employees, directors, officers, consultants, or advisors who purchased shares of

72


common stock from us under a compensatory stock option plan or other written agreement before the closing of this offering is entitled to resell these shares. These shares can be resold 90 days after the effective date of this offering in reliance on Rule 144, without having to comply with restrictions, including the holding period, contained in Rule 144.

          The Securities and Exchange Commission has indicated that Rule 701 will apply to typical share options granted by an issuer before it becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, along with the shares acquired upon exercise of these options, including exercises after the date of this prospectus. Securities issued in reliance on Rule 701 are restricted securities and, subject to the contractual restrictions described above, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, may be sold:

 

 

 

 

by persons other than affiliates subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144; and

 

 

 

 

by affiliates under Rule 144 without compliance with its one year minimum holding period requirement.

Registration Rights

          The holders of the Warrants are entitled to the registration of the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, subject to limitations established by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

          Following the completion of this offering, the holders of an aggregate of 4,723,234 shares of common stock are entitled to request that we register their shares of common stock under the Securities Act, subject to cutback for marketing reasons, and also are entitled to “piggy back” registration rights, also subject to cutback for marketing reasons. Registration of such shares under the Securities Act would result in such shares becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act, except for shares purchased by affiliates, immediately upon the effectiveness of such registration. Any sales of securities by these stockholders could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock.

73


PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          Each selling stockholder of the common stock and any of their pledgees (which are accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act) or which are in connection with bona fide margin accounts with a registered broker-dealer or financial institution which is an accredited investor), assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder 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;

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

 

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

          The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act if available, rather than under this prospectus. Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with NASDR Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASDR IM-2440.

          In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

          The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares 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. Each selling stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the common stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

          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 stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

74


Because selling stockholders 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 including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the selling stockholders.

          We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

          Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders 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 the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders 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 (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

75

GAMMACAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - GENERAL:

 

a.

Operation:

GammaCan International, Inc. (a Development Stage Company) was incorporated on October 6, 1998, under the laws of the State of Delaware, under the name of San Jose International, Inc. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to the “ Company ” refer to GammaCan International, Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, GammaCan Ltd (the “ Subsidiary ”).

The Company is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“ SFAS ”) No. 7 “ Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises ”.

The Company’s lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is an anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. The Company is developing VitiGam™ to treat melanoma. The Company has demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities, and the Company is seeking to develop VitiGam™ for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through June 30, 2008 of $12,265,847, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Based upon the Company’s existing spending commitments, the Company may not have sufficient cash resources to meet its liquidity requirements through September 30, 2008. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is engaged in ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders to raise the necessary funds for future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses in the public and private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with these initiatives, management expects to secure the necessary financing as a result of the above ongoing discussions.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL (continued):

 

b.

Unaudited interim financial information

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiary have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the consolidated annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2007.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2008.

 

c.

Income tax

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “ Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ” (“ FIN 48 ”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “ Accounting for Income Taxes ” (“ FAS 109 ”). This interpretation prescribes a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax positions, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective October 1, 2007. FIN 48 requires significant judgment in determining what constitutes an individual tax position as well as assessing the outcome of each tax position. Changes in judgment as to recognition or measurement of tax positions can materially affect the estimate of the effective tax rate and consequently, affect the operating results of the Company. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits as of October 1, 2007. The result of the implementation of FIN 48 did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to its tax contingencies as income tax expense. As of October 1, 2007, the Company recorded $30,000 of penalties related to tax contingencies.

As of October 1, 2007, the Company is subject to Israeli income tax examinations and to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the tax years of 2004 through 2007. As of June 30, 2008, the Company did not record any change to its unrecognized tax benefits.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “ Fair Value Measurements ” (“ SFAS 157 ”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years (October 1, 2008, for the Company). The FASB has also issued FSP No. FAS 157-2, “ Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 ”, which defers implementation of SFAS 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact that SFAS 157 may have on its results of operations and financial position.

 

2.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “ The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No.   115 ” (“ SFAS 159 ”). SFAS 159 is expected to expand the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards which require certain assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. The objective of SFAS 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Under SFAS 159, a company may choose, at its initial application or at other specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value and report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years (October 1, 2008, for the Company). If a company elects the fair value option for its existing assets and liabilities, the effect as of the adoption date, shall be reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently assessing the impact that SFAS 159 may have on its financial position.

 

3.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), “ Business Combinations ” (“ SFAS 141(R) ”). SFAS 141(R)  changes the accounting for business combinations, including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer’s income tax valuation allowance and income tax uncertainties. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early application is prohibited. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS 141(R) on October 1, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “ Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“ SFAS 160” ). SFAS 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. An ownership interest in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent should be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity. SFAS 160 requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for similarly as equity transactions. When a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary should be initially measured at fair value, with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. SFAS 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years (including interim periods within those fiscal years) beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The statement shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirement which shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

5.

In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued Issue No. 07-03, “ Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities ” (“ EITF No. 07-03 ”). EITF No. 07-03 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be deferred and amortized over the period that the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, subject to an assessment of recoverability. The provisions of EITF 07-03 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years (October 1, 2008, for the Company). The provisions of EITF No. 07-03 are applicable for new contracts entered into on or after the effective date. Earlier application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact EITF 07-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-01, “ Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements ” (“ EITF 07-01 ”). EITF 07-01 defines collaborative arrangements and establishes reporting requirements for transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement and between participants in the arrangement and third parties. EITF 07-01 also establishes the appropriate income statement presentation and classification for joint operating activities and payments between participants, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures related to these arrangements. EITF 07-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009, for the Company). EITF 07-01 shall be applied using modified version of retrospective transition for those arrangements in place at the effective date. An entity should report the effects of applying this Issue as a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods presented for all arrangements existing as of the effective date, unless  it is impracticable to apply the effects of the change retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact that EITF 07-01 may have on its results of operations and financial position.

 

7.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 161 “ Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ” (“ SFAS No. 161 ”). The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged (October 1, 2009, for the Company). The new standard also improves transparency about the  location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 “ Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ” (“ SFAS No. 133 ”); and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating the effect SFAS No. 161 will have on its financial statement presentations.

 

8.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “ The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ”. The statement is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent hierarchy for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing amendments to AU Section 411, “ The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ”. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 162 to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of
GammaCan International, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GammaCan International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) and its subsidiary (the “ Company ”) as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years then ended and cumulatively, for the period from October 1, 2003 to September 30, 2007. 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 did not audit the cumulative totals of the Company for the period from October 6, 1998 (date of incorporation) to September 30, 2003, which totals reflect a deficit of $15,640 accumulated during the development stage. Those cumulative totals were audited by other independent auditors, whose report, dated November 17, 2003, expressed an unqualified opinion on the cumulative amounts but included an emphasis of a matter. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts included for that period is based on the report of the other independent auditors.

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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based upon our audits and the report of the other independent auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended and cumulatively, for the period from October 1, 2003 to September 30, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1m to the financial statements, effective October 1, 2006 the Company changed its method of accounting for stock-based payment to conform with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “ Share-based Payment ”.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through September 30, 2007 of $8,956,187 and presently the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following October 1, 2007. These reasons raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1a. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of San Jose International, Inc. for the period from October 6, 1998 (date of inception) through September 30, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has had significant losses since inception. This condition raises substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.

GAMMACAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

 

 

 

a.

General:

 

 

 

 

GammaCan International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) was incorporated on October 6, 1998, under the laws of the State of Delaware, under the name of San Jose International, Inc. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to the “ Company ” refer to GammaCan International, Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, GammaCan Ltd (the “ Subsidiary ”).

 

 

 

 

 

The Company is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“ SFAS ”) No. 7 “ Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises ”.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company’s lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is an anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. The Company is developing VitiGam™ to treat melanoma. The Company has demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities, and the Company is seeking to develop VitiGam™ for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma.

 

 

 

 

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through September 30, 2007 of $8,956,187, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following October 1, 2007. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives as the Company will need to finance future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that the Company will be successful with those initiatives, management is confident that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders.

 

 

 

 

 

These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

 

 

 

 

 

 

b.

Accounting principles

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

c.

Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

 

 

 

 

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date and the reported expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

 

 

d.

Functional currency

 

 

 

 

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted is the U.S. dollar (“ $ ” or “ dollar ”).

 

 

 

 

 

Most of the Company’s research and development costs are incurred in dollars. A significant part of the Company’s capital expenditures and most of its financing is in dollars. Thus, the functional currency of the Company is the dollar.

 

 

 

 

 

Transactions and balances originally denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Balances in foreign currencies are translated into dollars using historical and current exchange rates for non-monetary and monetary balances, respectively. For foreign transactions and other items reflected in the statements of operations, the following exchange rates are used: (1) for transactions – exchange rates at transaction dates or average rates and (2) for other items (derived from non-monetary balance sheet items such as depreciation) – historical exchange rates. The resulting transaction gains or losses are carried to financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

 

 

 

 

e.

Principles of consolidation

 

 

 

 

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GammaCan International, Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary GammaCan Ltd. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 

 

 

f.

Property and equipment

 

 

 

 

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

 

 

Annual rates of depreciation are as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

%

GAMMACAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

 

 

 

 

g.

Deferred taxes

 

 

 

 

 

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the assets and liabilities method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Deferred tax balances are computed using the tax rates expected to be in effect when those differences reverse. A valuation allowance in respect of deferred tax assets is provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance with respect to its deferred tax assets.

 

 

 

 

 

Regarding the Subsidiary, paragraph 9(f) of FAS 109, “ Accounting for Income Taxes ”, prohibits the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets that arise from differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities that are measured from the local currency into dollars using historical exchange rates, and that result from changes in exchange rates or indexing for tax purposes. Consequently, the abovementioned differences were not reflected in the computation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

 

 

 

h.

Research and development

 

 

 

 

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

 

 

 

 

Acquisition of in process research and development and the costs of registration of patents that have not yet reached technological feasibility, have no alternative future use, are expensed as incurred.

 

 

 

 

i.

Cash equivalents

 

 

 

 

 

The Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments, which include short-term deposits with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, to be cash equivalents.

 

 

 

 

j.

Comprehensive loss

 

 

 

 

 

The Company has no other comprehensive loss components other than net loss for the reported periods.

 

 

 

 

k.

Loss per share

 

 

 

 

 

Basic and diluted net losses per share of common stock are computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Outstanding stock options and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted loss per share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The total number of common stock options and warrants excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss was 25,062,558 for the year ended September 30, 2007 (5,917,775 for the year ended September 30, 2006).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

 

 

 

 

l.

Impairment in value of long-lived assets

 

 

 

 

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, to be held and used, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In the event the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the long-lived assets is less than the carrying amount of such assets, an impairment loss would be recognized, and the assets are written down to their estimated fair values.

 

 

 

 

m.

Stock based compensation

 

 

 

 

 

Until September 30, 2006, the Company accounted for employees’ share-based payment under the intrinsic value model in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 - “ Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ” (“ APB 25 ”) and related interpretations. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 - “ Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ” (“ FAS 123 ”), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “ Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure ”, the Company disclosed pro forma information, assuming the Company had accounted for employees’ share-based payments using the fair value-based method defined in FAS 123.

 

 

 

 

 

Effective October 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “ Share-based Payment ” (“ FAS 123(R) ”). FAS 123(R) supersedes APB 25 and related interpretations and amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, “ Statement of Cash Flows ” (“ FAS 95 ”). FAS 123(R) requires awards classified as equity awards be accounted for using the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company estimated forfeitures based on historical experience and anticipated future conditions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“ SAB 107 ”). SAB 107 provides supplemental implementation guidance on FAS 123(R), including guidance on valuation methods, inventory capitalization of share-based compensation cost, income statement effects, disclosures and other issues. SAB 107 requires share-based payment to be classified in the same expense line items as cash compensation. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of FAS 123(R).

 

 

 

 

 

The Company elected to recognize compensation cost for an award with only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule using the accelerated method based on multiple option award approach .

GAMMACAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

 

 

 

 

 

FAS 123(R) applies to all awards granted or modified after the Statement’s effective date. In addition, compensation cost for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding on the Statement’s effective date shall be recognized on or after the effective date, as the related services are rendered, based on the awards’ grant-date fair value as previously calculated for the pro-forma disclosure under FAS 123.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company elected to adopt the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the Statement. Under such transition method, upon the adoption of FAS 123(R), the Company’s financial statements for periods prior to the effective date of the Statement are not restated.

 

 

 

 

 

Costs incurred in respect of stock based compensation for years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $1,713,169 and $163,517, respectively.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to third party service providers (non-employees) in accordance with the fair value based on an option-pricing model or when more reliability is based on the fair value of the services received, pursuant to the guidance in EITF 96-18 “ Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services ”. The fair value of the options granted is revalued over the related service periods and recognized using the accelerated method.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company recorded stock compensation of $508,028 and $33,440 during the years ended September 2007 and 2006 respectively, related to consulting services.

 

 

 

 

 

The following table illustrates the pro-forma effect on net loss and loss per common share assuming the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123 to its stock-based employee compensation:

Newly issued and recently adopted accounting pronouncements:

 

 

 

 

 

 

1)

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “ Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements ” (“ SAB 108 ”), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006 (September 30, 2007 for the Company). The Company adopted SAB 108 in these financial statements and accordingly, follows SAB 108 requirements when quantifying financial statement misstatements. The adoption of SAB No.108 did not result in corrections of the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2)

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “ Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement 109 ” (“ FIN 48 ”). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring and presenting in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2006 (October 1, 2007, for the Company). The provisions of FIN 48 shall be applied to all tax positions upon initial adoption of this Interpretation. Only tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized upon adoption of this Interpretation. The cumulative effects, if any, of applying this Interpretation will be recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. The Company is currently assessing this standard effect on its financial statements in future periods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3)

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “ Fair Value Measurements ” (“ FAS 157 ”). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years (October 1, 2008, for the Company). The Company is currently assessing this standard effect on its financial statements in future periods.

In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS 159, “ The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . This standard permits companies to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. This statement will be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2007 (October 1, 2008, for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

5)

In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF 07-3, “ Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities (“EITF 07-3”). EITF 07-3 addresses the diversity which exists with respect to the accounting for the non-refundable portion of a payment made by a research and development entity for future research and development activities. The EITF concluded that an entity will defer and capitalize non-refundable advance payments made for research and development activities until the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed. EITF 07-3 is effective for interim or annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 (October 1, 2008 for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting EITF 07-03 on its financial statements and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “ Business Combinations ” (“ SFAS 141(R) ”). SFAS 141(R) expands the definition of a business and a business combination, requires the fair value of the purchase price of an acquisition, including the issuance of equity securities to be determined on the acquisition date, requires that all assets, liabilities, contingent consideration, contingencies and in-process research and development costs of an acquired business be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, requires that acquisition costs generally be expensed as incurred, requires that restructuring costs generally be expensed in periods subsequent to the acquisition date, and requires changes in accounting for deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement period to impact income tax expense. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). Early application is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “ Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“ SFAS 160” ). SFAS 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. An ownership interest in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent should be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity. SFAS 160 requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for similarly as equity transactions. When a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary should be initially measured at fair value, with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. SFAS 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years (including interim periods within those fiscal years) beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The statement shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirement which shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-01, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (“ EITF 07-01” ) . EITF 07-01 defines collaborative arrangements and establishes reporting requirements for transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement and between participants in the arrangement and third parties. EITF 07-01 also establishes the appropriate income statement presentation and classification for joint operating activities and payments between participants, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures related to these arrangements. EITF 07-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the impact EITF 07-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - EMPLOYEE RIGHTS UPON RETIREMENT

 

 

 

 

 

a.

Israeli labor laws and agreements require payment of severance pay upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in certain other circumstances. The Subsidiary’s severance pay liability to its employees, mainly based upon length of service and the latest monthly salary (one month’s salary for each year worked), is reflected by the balance sheet accrual under the “liability for employee rights upon retirement”. The Company records the liability as if it was payable at each balance sheet date on an undiscounted basis. The liability is partly funded by purchase of insurance policies. The amounts funded are included in the balance sheet as “funds in respect of employee rights upon retirement”. The policies are the Company’s assets and under labor agreements, subject to certain limitations, they may be transferred to the ownership of the beneficiary employees.

 

 

 

 

b.

The severance pay expenses for the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, were $39,807 and $17,806 respectively.

 

 

 

 

c.

Cash flow information regarding the Company’s liability for employee rights upon retirement:

 

 

 

 

 

 

1)

The Company expects to contribute to the insurance policies $23,000 in respect of severance pay for the year ended September 30, 2008.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2)

Due to the relatively young age of the Company’s employees, benefit payments to employees reaching retirement age in the next 10 years, are not material. The amounts were determined based on the employees’ current salary rates and the number of service years that will accumulate upon their retirement date. These amounts do not include amounts that might be paid to employees who will cease working for the Subsidiary before their normal retirement age.

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance.

 

 

 

 

b.

Corporate taxation in the U.S.

 

 

 

 

 

Taxes on income included in the consolidated statements of operations represent current taxes due to taxable income of the US Company.

 

 

 

 

 

The applicable corporate tax rate for the Company is 22%.

 

 

 

 

c.

Corporate taxation in Israel

 

 

 

 

 

The Subsidiary is taxed in accordance with Israeli tax laws. Under the Income Tax (Inflationary Adjustments) Law, 1985, results for tax purposes are measured in real terms, in accordance with the changes in the Israeli consumer price index (“ CPI ”).

 

 

 

 

 

The regular corporate tax rate in Israel for 2007 is 29%. The corporate tax rates for 2008 and thereafter are as follows: 2008 – 27%, 2009 – 26% and for 2010 and thereafter – 25%.

 

 

 

 

 

As of September 30, 2007, the Subsidiary has an accumulated tax loss carryforward of approximately $3,348,267 (September 30, 2006 approximately - $1,724,661). Under Israeli tax laws, carryforward tax losses are linked to the Israeli CPI. The Israeli loss carryforwards have no expiration date.

 

 

 

 

d.

Reconciliation of the theoretical tax expense to actual tax expense

 

 

 

 

 

The main reconciling items, between the statutory tax rate of the Company and the effective rate are the non deductible expenses and the provision of the valuation allowance in respect of the Company’s deferred income tax asset (see above).

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 24. Indemnification of Officers and Directors

          Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides as follows:

          (a) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

          (b) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

          (c) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

          (d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

          (e) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors

II-1


and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

          (f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

          (g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this section.

          (h) For purposes of this section, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

          (i)  For purposes of this section, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this section.

          (j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

          (k) The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation’s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees). “

          We intend to indemnify our officers and directors to the extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have 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.

Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

          The following is an itemization of all expenses (subject to future contingencies) incurred or expected to be incurred by us in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being offered hereby, excluding the underwriters’ discounts and commissions (items marked with an asterisk (*) represent estimated expenses):

Item 28. Undertakings

          (a) 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 Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

          (b) The Registrant hereby undertakes:

          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 of 1933;

 

 

 

 

(ii)

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the 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 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 material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (b)1(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

          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.

          That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement 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.

          To determine any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.

          For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, to treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement relating to the securities offered

II-9


therein, and the offering of such securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          The Registrant hereby undertakes that it will provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

II-10
