BIOSIG TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
(unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.
 
Business and organization
 
BioSig Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was initially incorporated on February 24, 2009 under the laws of the State of Nevada and subsequently re-incorporated in the state of Delaware in 2011. The Company is principally devoted to improving the quality of cardiac recordings obtained during EP studies and catheter ablation procedures. The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.
 
Interim Financial Statements
 
The unaudited condensed interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
 
The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from audited financial statements.
 
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Company’s Form S-1/A with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 20, 2014 .
 
Basis of presentation
 
The Company's primary efforts are devoted to conducting research and development principally devoted to improving the quality of cardiac recordings obtained during EP studies and catheter ablation procedures. The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and expects these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company has stockholders' deficiencies at June 30, 2014 and requires additional financing to fund future operations. Further, the Company does not have any commercial products available for sale and there is no assurance that if approval of their products is received that the Company will be able to generate cash flow to fund operations. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company's research and development will be successfully completed or that any product will be approved or commercially viable.
 
The above factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the useful life of fixed assets and assumptions used in the fair value of stock-based compensation.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
(unaudited)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s short-term financial instruments, including cash, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities, the fair value of which, based on management’s estimates, reasonably approximate their book value. The fair value of the Company’s convertible securities is based on management estimates and reasonably approximates their book value.
 
Research and development costs
 
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $99,893  and $222,044 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively; and $178,507 and $484,846 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and are considered immaterial.
 
Net Income (loss) Per Common Share
 
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share under Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”). Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.  Diluted earnings per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods as applicable.
 
The computation of basic and diluted loss per share as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 excludes potentially dilutive securities when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, or if their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

Totals
   
9,347,455
     
6,710,646
 
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on vesting dates and interim financial reporting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 2,990,977 options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock, of which 1,904,659 were vested.
 
Registration Rights
 
The Company accounts for registration rights agreements in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-20, Registration Payment Arraignments (“ASC 825-20”). Under ASC 825-20, the Company is required to disclose the nature and terms of the arraignment, the maximum potential amount and to assess each reporting period the probable liability under these arraignments and, if exists,  to record or adjust the liability to current period operations.  On June 23, 2014, the Company filed Form S-1/A became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  As such, the Company determined that payments were due under its registration rights agreement and therefore accrued $55,620 as interest expense for the liability under the registration rights agreements.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. The amendments in this ASU remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915, Development Stage Entities, from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™.

A development stage entity is one that devotes substantially all of its efforts to establishing a new business and for which: (a) planned principal operations have not commenced; or (b) planned principal operations have commenced, but have produced no significant revenue. For example, many start-ups or even long-lived organizations that have not yet begun their principal operations or do not have significant revenue would be identified as development stage entities.

For public business entities, the presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The revised consolidation standards are effective one year later, in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted.

The Company has chosen to adopt the provisions of the ASU, hence all of the past development stage disclosures and presentations have been eliminated.

NOTE 5 — SERIES C 9% CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
 
On January 9,  2013, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of up to 4,200 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Convertible Preferred Stock”).
 
The Series C convertible preferred stock is entitled to preference over holders of junior stock upon liquidation in the amount of $1,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends ; entitled to dividends as a preference to holders of junior stock at a rate of 9% per annum of the Stated Value of $1,000 per share, payable quarterly beginning on September 30, 2013 and are cumulative.  The holders of Series C preferred stock have no voting rights, however without the affirmative vote of all the holders of then outstanding shares of the Series C preferred stock, the Company cannot (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series C preferred stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation.

In connection with the sale of the Series C preferred stock, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,330,627 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at $2.61 per share expiring five years from the initial exercise date.  The warrant provides if, at any time while the warrant is outstanding, the Company sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to re-price, or otherwise disposes of or issues any common stock or common stock equivalents entitling any person to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then conversion price (“base conversion price”), then the conversion price shall be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price.  
 
Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued.  In addition, the warrants provides for at any time after the six month anniversary of the initial exercise date, there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the warrant shares by the holder, then  the warrant may only be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to defined formula. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the resets provisions as described above resulted in an additional 984,674 warrants issued with an exercise price reset to $1.50 all Series C warrants..
 
In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company recognized an embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the Series C preferred stock when it was issued. The Company allocated the net proceeds between the  intrinsic value of the conversion option ($1,303,671) and the warrants ($1,064,739) to additional paid-in capital.  The aggregate debt discount, comprised of the relative intrinsic value the conversion option ($1,303,671),  relative fair value of the warrants ($1,064,739), and the issuance costs ($412,590); total of $2,781,000, is amortized over one year as interest expense, the date a possible redemption feature, outside of the Company’s control, would be available to the Series C stockholders
 
The Company valued the warrants in accordance with ASC 470-20 using the Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: contractual terms of 5 years, an average risk free interest rate of 0.39% to 1.40%, a dividend yield of 0%, and volatility of 123.41% to 125.33%.
 
During the month of February 2013, the holders of the Convertible Bridge Notes (See Note 7) converted into 600 shares of the Company’s Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
During the months of February, March, May, and July 2013, the Company sold an aggregate of 2,181 shares of the Company’s Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $1,814,910.
 
The Company determined that the anti-dilutive provisions embedded in the Series C 9% Convertible Preferred Stock and related issued warrants did not meet the defined criteria of a derivative in such that the net settlement requirement of delivery of common shares does not meet the “readily convertible to cash” as described in Accounting Standards Codification 815 and therefore bifurcation is not required.  There is no established market for the Company’s common stock.
 
Series C preferred stock issued and outstanding totaled 2,781 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has accrued $330,856 and $206,740 dividends payable on the Series C preferred stock.

Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value.  Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from management’s estimates.

On October 19, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (“the “2012 Plan) and terminated the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “ 2011 Plan”). The Plan provides for the issuance of options to purchase up to 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company. Under the terms of the Plan the Company may issue Incentive Stock Options as defined by the Internal Revenue Code to employees of the Company only and nonstatutory options. The Board of Directors of the Company determines the exercise price, vesting and expiration period of the grants under the Plan. However, the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option should not be less than 110% of fair value of the common stock at the date of the grant for a 10% or more stockholder and 100% of fair value for a grantee who is not 10% stockholder. The fair value of the common stock is determined based on quoted market price or in absence of such quoted market price, by the Board of Directors in good faith.
 
Additionally, the vesting period of the grants under the Plan will be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and expiration period not more than ten years. The Company reserved 500,000 shares of its common stock for future issuance under the terms of the Plan.

Litigation

On January 7, 2014, David Drachman, the Company’s former chief executive officer and president, filed a statement of claim against the Company with the American Arbitration Association with respect to his resignation from his positions with us in November 2013.  Mr. Drachman alleges, among other things, that (i) the Company misled him with respect to the status of our technology and required him to perform capital raising duties that had not been previously agreed upon, (ii) he resigned from his positions with us for good reason, as such term was defined in his employment agreement with the Company, and (iii) he, in his individual capacity, has full rights to the ownership and control of a patent application describing a combined ablation and recording unit directed at the use of electrocardiography sensing for control of radiofrequency renal denervation that we filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with the Company.

Mr. Drachman is seeking, among other things, (a) payment of his salary and pro-rated bonus for the time he served in his positions with the Company and the severance payments due under his employment agreement, which include 12 months of base salary and full bonus payments, with the total sum of payments equaling approximately $612,000, including $58,000 of accrued and unpaid salary, (b) full vesting of stock options equivalent to 10% of our outstanding common stock, and (c) a declaration by us that Mr. Drachman has full rights to the ownership and control of the patent application related to a combined ablation and recording unit that the Company filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with the Company.  

We intend to fully dispute Mr. Drachman’s allegations and his relief sought to the fullest extent permitted by the law and believe them to be wholly without merit.  On February 21, 2014, we filed an answer to Mr. Drachman’s statement of claim that disputed all of Mr. Drachman’s claims against us and counter-claimed against Mr. Drachman, seeking declaratory judgment concerning our rights to the ownership and control of the patent application related to a combined ablation and recording unit that we filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with us.  A hearing date for the arbitration has been set for September 2014.  We believe that the intellectual property included in the patent application does not represent our core proprietary intellectual property but instead represents a different use and application of our proprietary technology.
 
NOTE 10 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 825-10.  For financial assets and liabilities included within the scope of ASC 825-10, the Company was required to adopt the provisions of ASC 825-10 prospectively as of the beginning of Fiscal 2009.  The adoption of ASC 825-10 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
There were no items required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 14, 2014, the Company’s Board Of Directors (the “Board”) increased the size of the Board to eight members and appointed  Gregory D. Cash and Patrick J. Gallagher as members of the Board, effective as of July 15, 2014, to serve for a term expiring at the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of stockholders. In addition, the Board appointed Mr. Cash to serve as the Company’s president and chief executive officer.

In connection with the appointment of Mr. Cash, on July 15, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Cash (the “Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement has an initial term of three years that expires on July 15, 2017. Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Cash is entitled to an annual base salary of $275,000. Upon the Company closing an equity or equity-linked financing with proceeds to the Company of at least $3.5 million (a “Qualified Financing”), Mr. Cash’s annual base salary will automatically increase to $325,000 and he will receive (i) a one-time payment equal to the difference between the amount he would have earned if his base salary was $325,000 and the amount he actually earned at his base salary of $275,000 for the time period from the Effective Date until the closing of such Qualified Financing and (ii) a one-time cash bonus of $30,000. If the Company does not complete a Qualified Financing within six months after the Effective Date, Mr. Cash’s annual base salary will nonetheless increase to $325,000 and he will receive the same one-time payment unless the Company reasonably determines that the failure to complete such Qualified Financing was within the reasonable control of Mr. Cash. Mr. Cash is also eligible to receive an annual bonus equal to at least 50% of the sum of his base salary and one-time payment, based on the achievement of reasonable performance criteria to be determined by the Board in consultation with Mr. Cash within 90 days of the Effective Date.

In accordance with the Employment Agreement, on July 15, 2014, the Company granted Mr. Cash an incentive stock option to purchase 1,265,769 shares of the Company’s common stock, made pursuant to an Incentive Stock Option Agreement. The option has an exercise price of $2.21, which was the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and a term that expires ten years from the date of grant. The option will vest as follows (i) 542,473 shares of common stock will vest in eleven equal installments of 45,206 shares of common stock and one final installment of 45,207 shares of common stock on a quarterly basis with the first installment vesting on the Effective Date and subsequent installments vesting every three months thereafter; (ii) 180,824 shares of common stock will vest immediately upon completion of a Qualified Financing; (iii) 180,824 shares of common stock will vest upon the listing of the Company’s common stock on a recognized U.S. national securities exchange (i.e., NYSE, MKT LLC, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or the New York Stock Exchange); (iv) 180,824 shares of common stock will vest upon the 510(k) clearance or any other type of clearance deemed necessary by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the Company’s PURE (Precise Uninterrupted Real-time evaluations of Electrograms) EP technology platform; and (v) 180,824 shares of common stock will vest upon the Company achieving a market capitalization of $150,000,000 and maintaining such market capitalization for at least 90 consecutive calendar days.

The PURE (Precise Uninterrupted Real-time evaluation of Electrograms) EP System is designed to assist electrophysiologists in making clinical decisions in real-time by providing information that, we believe, is not easily obtained, if at all, from any other equipment presently used in electrophysiology labs.  PURE EP System’s ability to acquire high fidelity cardiac signals will potentially increase these signals’ diagnostic value, and therefore offer improved accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and related procedures.  We are developing signal processing tools within the PURE EP System, which we call confidence indexes. We believe that these will assist electrophysiologists in further differentiating true signals from noise, and will provide guidance in identifying ablation targets.
 
Since June 2011, we have collaborated with physicians affiliated with the Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas for initial technology validation.  The physicians affiliated with the Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute has provided us with digital recordings obtained with conventional electrophysiology recording systems during different stages of electrophysiology studies.  Using our proprietary signal processing tools that are part of the PURE EP System, we analyzed these recordings and successfully removed baseline wander, noise and artifacts from the data thereby providing better diagnostic quality signals.

We are focused on improving the quality of cardiac recordings obtained during ablation of atrial fibrillation, the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and ventricular tachycardia, an arrhythmia evidenced by a fast heart rhythm originating from the lower chambers of the heart, which can be life-threatening. Cardiac ablation is a procedure that corrects conduction of electrical impulses in the heart that cause arrhythmias.  During this invasive procedure, a catheter is usually inserted using a venous access into a specific area of the heart. A special radiofrequency generator delivers energy through the catheter to small areas of the heart muscle that cause the abnormal heart rhythm.  According to a 2009 article in Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, ablation is superior to pharmacological treatments and is becoming a first line of therapy for certain patients with arrhythmias (“Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation With Antiarrhythmic Drugs or Radiofrequency Ablation,” Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology 2: 349-361 (2009)).

Our overall goal is to establish our proprietary technology as a new platform that will have the following advantages over the electrophysiology recording systems currently available on the market:
 
 
Higher quality cardiac signal acquisition  for accurate and more efficient electrophysiology studies;
 
 
Precise, uninterrupted, real time evaluations of electrograms;
 
 
Reliable cardiac recordings to better determine precise ablation targets, strategy and end point of procedures; and
 
 
A portable device that can be fully integrated into existing electrophysiology lab environments.
 
If we are able to develop our product as designed, we believe that the PURE EP System and its signal processing tools will contribute to an increase in the number of procedures performed in each electrophysiology lab and possibly improved patient outcomes.

We are currently conducting testing of the assembled components of the PURE EP System prototype in order to validate the design of the prototype.  We believe such testing will be completed by the third quarter of 2014.  To date, we have not conducted any studies of the data produced by our technology that have been subjected to any third-party review, as would be required for the publication of a formal study.
 
We intend to conduct formal animal studies and initial human clinical trials using the PURE EP System prototype, using formal protocol and study designs.  These formal animal studies and human clinical trials are intended to demonstrate the clinical relevance of the PURE EP System and its advantages as compared to electrophysiology recorders currently on the market, which we believe will demonstrate the value of the PURE EP System to physicians and clinicians. Our objective is to complete all studies by the first quarter of 2015.  We have also begun planning and implementing steps for obtaining 510(k) approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the PURE EP System.  We believe that by the second half of 2015, we will have obtained 510(k) marketing clearance from the FDA and will be able to commence marketing and commercialization of the PURE EP System.  Our ability to achieve the aforementioned milestones will be principally determined by our ability to obtain necessary financing and regulatory approvals, among other factors.

Because our initial product is under development, we currently do not have any customers.  We anticipate that our initial customers will be hospitals and other health care facilities that operate electrophysiology labs.

Results of Operations
 
We anticipate that our results of operations will fluctuate for the foreseeable future due to several factors, such as the progress of our research and development efforts and the timing and outcome of regulatory submissions. Due to these uncertainties, accurate predictions of future operations are difficult or impossible to make.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
 
As of June 30, 2014, we had a working capital deficit of $819,450, comprised of cash of $42,188 and prepaid expenses of $21,806, which was offset by $552,087 of accounts payable and accrued expenses, short term related party advances of $500 and accrued dividends on preferred stock issuances of $330,857. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we used $962,384 of cash in operating activities. Cash provided by financing activities totaled $702,385, comprised of proceeds from the sale of our common stock of $732,666, net with repayments of related party advances of $30,281. In the comparable period in 2013, $1,484,070 was raised through the sale of our Series C Preferred Stock, net with repayments of related party notes and advances of $30,000 and $16,540, respectively. At June 30, 2014, we had cash of $42,188 compared to $302,187 at December 31, 2013. Our cash is held in bank deposit accounts. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had no convertible debentures outstanding.
 
Cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $962,384 and $1,147,064, respectively, which represent cash outlays for research and development and general and administrative expenses in such periods. Increase in cash outlays principally resulted from increased research and development and general and administrative expenses due to the continued development of our operations.
 
We used no cash for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $9,765 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we purchased office furniture and computer equipment.

In their report dated March 27, 2014, our independent registered public accounting firm stated at December 31, 2013, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised due to our net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and our expectation that these conditions will continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, we will require additional financing to fund future operations. Further, we do not have any commercial products available for sale and have not generated revenues to date, and there is no assurance that, if approval of our products is received, we will be able to generate cash flow to fund operations. In addition, there can be no assurance that our research and development will be successfully completed or that any product will be approved or commercially viable. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, obtaining loans from various financial institutions or being awarded grants from government agencies, where possible. Our continued net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
 
Our Series C Preferred Stock contains triggering events which would, among other things, require redemption (i) in cash, at the greater of (a) 120% of the stated value of $1,000 or (b) the product of (I) the variable weighted average price of our common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the triggering event and (II) the stated value divided by the then conversion price or (ii) in shares of our common stock, equal to a number of shares equal to the amount set forth in (i) above divided by 75%.  The triggering events include our being subject to a judgment of greater than $100,000 or our initiation of bankruptcy proceedings. If any of the triggering events contained in our Series C Preferred Stock occur, the holders of our Series C Preferred Stock may demand redemption, an obligation we may not have the ability to meet at the time of such demand.  We will be required to pay interest on any amounts remaining unpaid after the required redemption of our Series C Preferred Stock, at rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
 
We expect to incur losses from operations for the near future. We expect to incur increasing research and development expenses, including expenses related to clinical trials. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we expand our business development, add infrastructure and incur additional costs related to being a public company, including incremental audit fees, investor relations programs and increased professional services.
 
Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including the progress of our research and development of product candidates, the timing and outcome of regulatory approvals, the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, the status of competitive products, the availability of financing and our success in developing markets for our product candidates. We believe our existing cash will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital equipment requirements. We anticipate we will need approximately $2 million in addition to our current cash on hand to fund our operating expenses and capital equipment requirements for the next 12 months. We will have to raise additional funds to continue our operations and, while we have been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary additional funds to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations.
 
Future financing may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, existing holders of our securities may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our securities.
 
If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain product candidates that we might otherwise seek to develop or commercialize independently.

Transactions with Related Parties

Our President and shareholders have advanced funds to us for working capital purposes since our inception in February 2009.  No formal repayment terms or arrangements exist and we not accruing interest on these advances. The net amount outstanding at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013  was $500 and $30,781, respectively.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, one of our board of directors forgave an outstanding obligation of $87,500 for services.  Accordingly, we reclassified the liability to equity as donated capital.

Lease Commitments
 
On May 31, 2014, we extended its expiring three-year lease for office space in Los Angeles, California for one additional year, with monthly payments of $6,530 beginning September 1, 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our 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, liabilities and expenses. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on assumptions 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 sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Research and Development.
 
We account for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred.
 
Stock Based Compensation.
 
All stock-based payments to employees and to nonemployee directors for their services as directors consisted of grants of restricted stock and stock options, which are measured at fair value on the grant date and recognized in the statements of operations as compensation expense over the relevant vesting period. Restricted stock payments and stock-based payments to nonemployees are recognized as an expense over the period of performance. Such payments are measured at fair value at the earlier of the date a performance commitment is reached or the date performance is completed. In addition, for awards that vest immediately and are non-forfeitable, the measurement date is the date the award is issued.
 
 
25

 
Because there is no viable market for our common stock in order to determine its fair value, we are required to estimate the fair value to be utilized in the determining stock based compensation costs.  In estimating the fair value, we consider recent sales of our common stock or common stock equivalents to independent qualified investors, our placement agents’ assessments of the underlying common shares relating to our sale of preferred stock and validation by independent fair value experts.  Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value.  Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from our estimates.
 
Income Taxes.
 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss and credit carryforwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted tax rates. We record an estimated valuation allowance on our deferred income tax assets if it is not more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets will be realized. We recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On January 7, 2014, David Drachman, our former chief executive officer and president, filed a statement of claim against us with the American Arbitration Association with respect to his resignation from his positions with us in November 2013.  Mr. Drachman alleges, among other things, that (i) we misled him with respect to the status of our technology and required him to perform capital raising duties that had not been previously agreed upon, (ii) he resigned from his positions with us for good reason, as such term was defined in his employment agreement with us, and (iii) he, in his individual capacity, has full rights to the ownership and control of a patent application describing a combined ablation and recording unit directed at the use of electrocardiography sensing for control of radiofrequency renal denervation that we filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with us.

Mr. Drachman is seeking, among other things, (a) payment of his salary and pro-rated bonus for the time he served in his positions with us and the severance payments due under his employment agreement, which include 12 months of base salary and full bonus payments, with the total sum of payments equaling approximately $612,000, including $58,000 of accrued and unpaid salary, (b) full vesting of stock options equivalent to 10% of our outstanding common stock, and (c) a declaration by us that Mr. Drachman has full rights to the ownership and control of the patent application related to a combined ablation and recording unit that we filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with us.  We intend to fully dispute Mr. Drachman’s allegations and his relief sought to the fullest extent permitted by the law and believe them to be wholly without merit.  On February 21, 2014, we filed an answer to Mr. Drachman’s statement of claim that disputed all of Mr. Drachman’s claims against us and counter-claimed against Mr. Drachman, seeking declaratory judgment concerning our rights to the ownership and control of the patent application related to a combined ablation and recording unit that we filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the time Mr. Drachman served in his positions with us.  A hearing date for the arbitration has been set for September 2014.  We believe that the intellectual property included in the patent application does not represent our core proprietary intellectual property but instead represents a different use and application of our proprietary technology.
