NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by Nocopi
Technologies, Inc. (the Company). These statements include all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the
statements and have been prepared on a consistent basis using the accounting policies described in
the summary of Accounting Policies included in the Companys 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the accompanying
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Notes to Financial
Statements included in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying interim financial statements. The interim operating results for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 may not be necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full
year.
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification
(ASC) 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial
reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically
has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Since the Company has no items of other
comprehensive income, comprehensive income (loss) is equal to net income (loss).
Note 2. Going Concern
Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant losses and, as of March 31, 2011, had
accumulated losses of $13,318,500. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company had a net
loss from operations of $38,300. At March 31, 2011, the Company had negative working capital of
$382,100 and a stockholders deficiency of $374,000. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the
Companys net loss from operations was $234,400. Due in part to the recession that has and is
continuing to negatively impact the countrys economy, the Company, which is substantially
dependent on its licensees to generate licensing revenues, may incur further operating losses and
experience negative cash flow in the future. Achieving profitability and positive cash flow depends
on the Companys ability to generate and sustain significant increases in revenues and gross
profits from its traditional business and new product lines. There can be no assurances that the
Company will be able to generate sufficient revenues and gross profits to return to and sustain
profitability and positive cash flow in the future.
4
In late January 2011, the Company received an unsecured loan of $15,000 from William P. Curtis,
Jr., a Director, and repaid the loan in early February 2011. During 2010, the Company received
unsecured loans totaling $50,500 from four individuals, of which $7,500 was lent by Herman M.
Gerwitz, a Director. During 2010, the Company raised $101,600 in a private placement exempt from
registration under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, whereby 2,668,333 shares
of the Companys common stock were sold to five non-affiliated individual investors and 211,412
were sold to two Directors of the Company. Receipt of funds from these investors and from the
demand loan holders has permitted the Company to continue in operation to the current date.
Management of the Company believes that it will need additional capital in the future both to fund
investments needed to increase its operating revenues to levels that will sustain its operations
and to fund operating deficits that it anticipates will continue until revenue increases from
traditional and new product lines can be realized. There can be no assurances that the Company will
be successful in obtaining sufficient additional capital, or if it does, that the additional
capital will enable the Company to impact its revenues so as to have a material positive effect on
the Companys operations and cash flow. The Company believes that without additional capital,
whether in the form of debt, equity or both, it may be forced to cease operations at an
undetermined date in the future.
Note 3. Stock Based Compensation
The Company follows FASB ASC 718, Compensation Stock Compensation, and uses the Black-Scholes
option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of an award.
In February 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company granted options to acquire 200,000 shares
of its common stock to five employees of the Company, options to acquire 75,000 shares of its
common stock to two consultants and options to acquire 50,000 shares of its common stock to an
officer of the Company at $0.12 per share. The options vested in February 2010 and expire five
years from the date of grant. In accordance with the fair value method as described in the
accounting requirements of FASB ASC 718, expense of approximately $22,900 was recognized over the
vesting period of the options through February 2010 to account for the cost of services received by
the Company in exchange for the grant of stock options. There was no compensation expense
recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2011. During the three months ended March 31,
2010, compensation expense of approximately $3,000 was recognized. There was no unrecognized
portion of expense at March 31, 2011. The Companys stock option plans terminated prior to 2010,
and no further stock options can be granted under the plans; however, stock options granted before
the termination dates may be exercised through their expiration dates. There were no stock options
granted, exercised or cancelled during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Note 4. Line of Credit
The Company has a line of credit with a bank that, at its inception in 2008, allowed the Company to
borrow up to $100,000 to provide a future source of working capital. The line of credit, which
matures in September 2014, is secured by all the assets of the Company and bears interest at the
banks prime rate plus 0.5%. At March 31, 2011, the interest rate applicable to the Companys line
of credit was 3.75%. Until the third quarter of 2010, the Company had been required to pay interest
only on borrowings under the line of credit. In the third quarter of 2010, the Company was notified
by the bank that the fully drawn line of credit, which had an outstanding balance of $100,000 at
that time, was not being renewed. The bank offered to the Company and the Company accepted
repayment terms that require the Company to repay the outstanding loan balance in forty-eight equal
monthly installments of $2,083 plus interest at the banks prime rate plus 0.5%, beginning in
October 2010. At March 31, 2011, the outstanding balance under the line of credit was $87,500.
Note 5. Demand Loans
In January 2011, the Company received an unsecured loan of $15,000 from William P. Curtis, Jr., a
Director, and repaid the loan, with interest at 8%, in February 2011. The loan was used to finance
the Companys working capital requirements. Additionally, the Company granted warrants to purchase
15,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.06 per share to Mr. Curtis. The warrants expire
in five years. A financing cost of approximately $600, representing the fair value of the warrants,
was charged to income in the first quarter of 2011. The fair value of the warrants was determined
using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life-5 years;
interest rate-2%; expected volatility based on the Companys historical volatility-83% and dividend
yield-0. In March 2010, the Company received unsecured loans totaling $40,500 from three
individuals of which $7,500 was
6
lent by Herman M. Gerwitz, a Director. The loans bear interest at 8% and are payable on demand. The loans were used to finance
the Companys working capital requirements. Additionally, the Company granted warrants to purchase
40,500 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.07 per share to these three individuals. The
warrants expire in five years. A financing cost of approximately $1,800, representing the fair
value of the warrants, was charged to income in the first quarter of 2010. The fair value of the
warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:
expected life-5 years; interest rate-2.65%; expected volatility based on the Companys historical
volatility-77% and dividend yield-0. The incurrence of these unsecured loans constitutes a
violation of certain covenants under the Companys line of credit which gives the lender certain
rights, including the right to require the Company to repay immediately the entire outstanding loan
balance, which was $87,500 at March 31, 2011, rather than on a monthly basis over the following
forty-two months. Should the bank require immediate prepayment, the Companys financial condition
could be materially adversely affected. Management of the Company intends to cure this violation.

Note 6. Income Taxes
There is no income tax benefit for the losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March
31, 2010 because the Company has determined that the realization of the net deferred tax asset is
not assured. The Company has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits.
7
There was no change in unrecognized tax benefits during the period ended March 31, 2011 and there
was no accrual for uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2011.
Tax years from 2007 through 2010 remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and state
jurisdictions.
Note 7. Loss per Share
In accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share, basic earnings (loss) per common share is
computed using net earnings (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the periods presented. The computation of diluted earnings per common share
involves the assumption that outstanding common shares are increased by shares issuable upon
exercise of those stock options and warrants for which the market price exceeds the exercise price.
The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of such stock options and warrants is decreased by
shares that could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds. Because the Company
reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, common stock
equivalents, consisting of stock options and warrants, were anti-dilutive.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Forward-Looking Information
This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act),
regarding, among other things, anticipated improvements in operations, the Companys plans,
earnings, cash flow and expense estimates, strategies and prospects, both business and financial.
All statements other than statements of current or historical fact contained in this report are
forward-looking statements. The words believe, expect, anticipate, should, plan,
will, may, intend, estimate, potential, continue and similar expressions, as they
relate to the Company, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
The Company has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and
projections about future events, financial trends, market opportunities, competition, and the
adequacy of the Companys available cash resources, which the Company believes may affect its
financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. This Form 10-Q
also contains forward-looking statements attributed to third parties. All such statements can be
affected by inaccurate assumptions, including, without limitation, with respect to risks,
uncertainties, anticipated operating efficiencies, new business prospects and the rate of expense
increases. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements
in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or
implied in the forward-looking statements. For these reasons, and because of the uncertainty
relating to the current financial crisis in todays economic environment and the potential
reduction in demand for the Companys products, you should not consider this information to be a
guarantee by the Company or any other person that its objectives and plans will be achieved. When
you consider these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the Risk Factors and other
cautionary statements set forth in this Item 2 and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The Companys
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. The Company undertakes no obligation to
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.
The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Financial Statements and related notes
included elsewhere in this report as well as with the Companys audited Financial Statements and
Notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on March 31, 2011 and keeping in
mind this cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information.
10
Results of Operations
The Companys revenues are derived from (i) royalties paid by licensees of the Companys
technologies, (ii) fees for the provision of technical services to licensees and (iii) the direct
sale of (a) products incorporating the Companys technologies, such as inks, security paper and
pressure sensitive labels, and (b) equipment used to support the application of the Companys
technologies, such as ink-jet printing systems. Royalties consist of guaranteed minimum royalties
payable by the Companys licensees and/or additional royalties, which typically vary with the
licensees sales or production of products incorporating the licensed technology. Technical
services, in the form of on-site or telephone consultations by members of the Companys technical
staff, may be offered to licensees of the Companys technologies. The consulting fees are billed at
agreed upon per diem or hourly rates at the time the services are rendered. Service fees and sales
revenues vary directly with the number of units of service or product provided.
The Company recognizes revenue on its lines of business as follows:
a) License fees and royalties are recognized when the license term begins. Upon inception of
the license term, revenue is recognized in a manner consistent with the nature of the transaction
and the earnings process, which generally is ratably over the license term;
b) Product sales are recognized upon shipment of products, when the price is fixed or
determinable and collectability is reasonably assured; and
c) Fees for technical services are recognized when (i) the service has been rendered; (ii) an
arrangement exists; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable based upon a per diem or hourly rate;
and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company believes that, as fixed cost reductions beyond those it has achieved in recent
years may not be achievable, its operating results are substantially dependent on revenue levels.
Because revenues derived from licenses and royalties carry a much higher gross profit margin than
other revenues, operating results are also substantially affected by changes in revenue mix.
Both the absolute amounts of the Companys revenues and the mix among the various sources of
revenue are subject to substantial fluctuation. The Company has a relatively small number of
substantial customers rather than a large number of small customers. Accordingly, changes in the
revenue received from a significant customer can have a substantial effect on the Companys total
revenue, revenue mix and overall financial performance. Such changes may result from a customers
product development delays, engineering changes, changes in product marketing strategies,
production requirements and the like. In addition, certain customers have, from time to time,
sought to renegotiate certain provisions of their license agreements and, when the Company agrees
to revise terms, revenues from the customer may be affected. The addition of a substantial new
customer or the loss of a substantial existing customer may also have a substantial effect on the
Companys total revenue, revenue mix and operating results.
11
Revenues for the first quarter of 2011 were $224,700 compared to $92,700 in the first quarter
of 2010, an increase of $132,000, or approximately 142%. Licenses, royalties and fees
increased by $38,200, or approximately 71%, in the first quarter of 2011 to $92,200 from
$54,000 in the first quarter of 2010. The increase in licenses, royalties and fees is due primarily
to higher licensing revenues from a licensee in the entertainment and toy products market, license
fees from a new licensee in the entertainment and toy products market whose license commenced in
mid-2010 and increased royalties from the Companys three US licensees in the retail receipt and
document fraud market. Additionally, in March 2011, the Company finalized a multi-year license
agreement with a new licensee in the entertainment and toy products market that will generate
license and royalty revenues beginning in the second quarter of 2011. There can be no assurances
that the marketing and product development activities of the Companys licensees or other
businesses in the entertainment and toy products market will produce a significant increase in
revenues for the Company, nor can the timing of any potential revenue increases be predicted,
particularly given the uncertain economic conditions being experienced worldwide.
Product and other sales increased by $93,800, or approximately 242%, to $132,500 in the first
quarter of 2011 from $38,700 in the first quarter of 2010. Sales of ink increased in the first
quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010 due primarily to ink shipments to a third
party printer used by the Companys major licensee in the entertainment and toy products market.
There were no ink shipments to this printer in the first quarter of 2010. Additionally, ink
shipments to the Companys licensees in the retail receipt and document fraud market increased in
the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, the
operating division in South America of the Companys new international customer received its second
shipment of entertainment and toy products that incorporate the Companys technologies. In the
first quarter of 2011, the Company derived revenues of approximately $151,500 from its licensees,
their printers and its customers in the entertainment and toy products market compared to revenues
of approximately $26,000 in the first quarter of 2010.
The Companys gross profit increased to $140,000, or approximately 62% of gross revenues, in
the first quarter of 2011 from $25,000, or approximately 27% of gross revenues, in the first
quarter of 2010. Licenses, royalties and fees have historically carried a higher gross profit than
product and other sales, which generally consist of either supplies or other manufactured products
which incorporate the Companys technologies or equipment used to support the application of its
technologies. These items (except for inks which are manufactured by the Company) are generally
purchased from third-party vendors and resold to the end-user or licensee and carry a lower gross
profit than licenses, royalties and fees.
As the variable component of cost of revenues related to licenses, royalties and fees is a low
percentage of these revenues and the fixed component is not substantial, period to period changes
in revenues from licenses, royalties and fees can significantly affect both the gross profit from
these sources as well as the Companys overall gross profit. Primarily due to the increase in
revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first
quarter of 2010, the gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees increased to approximately 83%
in the first quarter of 2011 from approximately 62% in the first quarter of 2010.
12
The gross profit of product and other sales, expressed as a percentage of revenues, is
dependent on both the overall sales volumes of product and other sales and on the mix of the
specific goods produced and/or sold. As a result of higher sales of inks and a lower fixed
component of expenses in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010, there was
a gross profit from product and other sales of approximately 48% of revenues in the first quarter
of 2011 compared to a negative gross profit of approximately 21% of revenues in the first quarter
of 2010.
Research and development expenses decreased to $28,800 in the first quarter of 2011 from
$42,000 in the first quarter of 2010. This decrease is due primarily to a staff reduction in the
second quarter of 2010.
Sales and marketing expenses increased to $48,700 in the first quarter of 2011 from $34,400 in
the first quarter of 2010. This increase is due primarily to both higher commission expenses on a
higher level of revenues and higher travel expenses in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the
first quarter of 2010.
General and administrative expenses, which stayed relatively stagnant, were $100,800 in the
first quarter of 2011 compared to $100,500 in the first quarter of 2010.
Other income (expenses) includes interest on funds borrowed under the Companys line of credit
with a bank and on unsecured loans from five individuals. Also included in other income (expenses)
are financing costs related to warrants issued in both the first quarter of 2011 and the first
quarter of 2010 in conjunction with unsecured loans received during those periods.
The lower net loss of $41,200 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the net loss of
$155,100 in the first quarter of 2010 resulted primarily from a higher gross profit on a higher
level of revenues in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010.
Plan of Operation, Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first quarter of 2011, the Companys cash increased to $20,800 at March 31, 2011
from $10,600 at December 31, 2010. During the first quarter of 2011, the Company generated $16,500
from its operating activities and borrowed $15,000 from a director. The Company repaid the loan
from the director and also repaid $6,300 of its line of credit with a bank.
During the first quarter of 2011, the Companys revenues increased as a result of higher
license fees from a major customer in the entertainment and toy products market, sales of ink to
that customers licensed printer, license fees generated from a license signed in mid-2010 with a
licensee in the entertainment and toy products market and a second sale of products incorporating
the Companys technologies to a new customer in the entertainment and toy products market. As the
Companys first quarter 2011 total overhead expenses were comparable to the 2010 first quarter
total overhead expenses, the increase in the gross profit resulted in a reduction of the Companys
net loss to $41,200 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $155,100 in the first quarter of 2010.
The Company had positive operating cash flow of $16,500 during the first quarter of 2011. At March
31, 2011, the Company had negative working capital of $382,100 and a stockholders deficiency of
$374,000. For the full year of 2010, the Company had a net
loss of $245,100 and had negative operating cash flow of $170,200.
13
At December 31, 2010, the Company had negative working capital of $343,000 and a $333,400
stockholders deficiency. During 2010, the Company accepted an offer by the bank to repay the then
outstanding balance of $100,000 under its line of credit with a bank in forty-eight equal monthly
installments, plus interest, beginning in October 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the balance on the
line of credit had been reduced to $87,500. During 2010 and early 2011, the Company received
unsecured loans totaling $65,500 from five individuals and repaid $15,000 of those amounts
borrowed. Additionally, in 2010 and 2011 through the date of this report, the Company raised
approximately $116,600 through the sale of 3,168,207 shares of its common stock. These borrowings
and sales of common stock have allowed the Company to remain in operation through the current date.
There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure sufficient additional funding
through investments or borrowings that will allow the Company to fund losses that it presently
believes may continue during 2011. The Company believes that without additional investment, it may
be forced to cease operations at an undetermined date in the future.
The Companys plan of operation for the twelve months beginning with the date of this
quarterly report consists of concentrating available human and financial resources to continue to
capitalize on the specific business relationships the Company has developed in the entertainment
and toy products market, including a new licensee and a new international customer added in 2010
and a new licensee added in the first quarter of 2011 The Company plans to continue developing
applications for these licensees while expanding its licensee base in the entertainment and toy
market. Additionally, the Company anticipates further revenue growth in the retail loss prevention
market through increased royalties from security ink sales to its long-standing and recently-added
licensees in this market. The Company will continue to adjust its production and technical staff as
necessary. The Company will also, subject to available financial resources, invest in capital
equipment needed to support potential growth in ink production requirements beyond its current
capacity. Additionally, the Company will pursue opportunities to market its current technologies in
specific security and non-security markets.
The Company has received and continues to seek additional capital, in the form of debt, equity
or both, to support its working capital requirements. There can be no assurances that the Company
will be successful in raising additional capital, or that such additional capital, if obtained,
will enable the Company to generate additional revenues and positive cash flow.
The Company generates a significant portion of its total revenues from licensees in the
entertainment and toy products market. These licensees generally sell their products through retail
outlets; over the balance of the year, such sales may be adversely affected by a continuation of
the slowdown in consumer spending that was experienced during 2009 and 2010 due to the current
negative economic environment. As a result, the Companys revenues, results of operations and
liquidity may continue to be negatively impacted as they were during the previous two years.
14
Risk Factors
The Companys operating results, financial condition and stock price are subject to certain
risks, some of which are beyond the Companys control. These risks could cause actual operating and
financial results to differ materially from those expressed in the Companys forward-looking
statements, including the risks described below and the risks identified in other documents which
are filed and furnished with the SEC including the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2010 that was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011:
Access to Capital. The Company anticipates the need to raise capital in order to fund its
historical and new business operations. The crisis in the financial markets that commenced in 2007
caused serious deterioration in the net worth and liquidity of many investors, including potential
investors in the Company, and seriously eroded investor confidence in general making it more
difficult for the Company to raise capital. If the Company is unable to secure capital, in the form
of debt, equity or both, that may be needed in the future, it may be forced to cease operations.
There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional investment
in sufficient amounts to fund its ongoing business operations.
Line of Credit. The Company has a line of credit with a bank that, at its inception, allowed the
Company to borrow a maximum of $100,000. In August 2010, after the bank indicated that it would not
renew the line of credit, the Company accepted an offer by the bank to repay the then outstanding
loan balance of $100,000 in forty-eight equal monthly installments of $2,083, plus interest,
beginning in October 2010 and maturing in September 2014. During 2010 and the first quarter of
2011, the Company incurred unsecured loans totaling $65,500 from five individuals and repaid
$15,000 of these loans. The incurrence of these unsecured loans constituted a violation of certain
covenants of the Companys line of credit with the bank. Under the terms of the line of credit
agreement, this covenant violation is an event of default whereby the bank has certain rights,
including the right to require the Company to immediately repay the entire outstanding loan
balance. Should the bank impose a requirement for immediate repayment of the entire outstanding
loan balance, which was $87,500 at March 31, 2011, this could have a material adverse effect on the
Companys financial condition.
Dependency on Major Customer. The Company derives a significant percentage of its revenues through
a licensing relationship with a major customer. Revenues obtained directly from this customer and
indirectly, through the customers third party printer, equaled approximately 48% of the Companys
first quarter 2011 revenues and approximately 39% of the Companys 2010 full year revenues. The
Company also has substantial receivables from these businesses. The Company is dependent on its
licensees to develop new products and markets that will generate increases in its licensing and
product revenues. While multi-year licenses exist with these organizations, the inability of these
licensees to maintain at least current levels of sales of products utilizing the Companys
technologies could adversely affect the Companys operating results and cash flow. Additionally, as
the Companys licensees continue to be adversely affected by the current economic downturn, the
Companys revenues may be adversely impacted. In late 2009, the Company entered into a three-year
license agreement that commenced in January
2010. This license agreement contains guaranteed minimum annual royalties covering products sold
under previous license agreements with two of the licensees operating divisions. Although the
agreement contains renewal options, there can be no assurances that the license will continue in
force at the same or more favorable terms beyond its current termination date.
15
Possible Inability to Develop New Business. Management of the Company believes that any significant
improvement in the Companys cash flow must result from increases in revenues from traditional
sources and from new revenue sources. The Company raised cash through additional capital investment
and loans from individuals in 2010 and 2011. The Company also benefited from limiting increases in
its operating expenses and reducing its operating expenses when possible. The Companys ability to
develop new revenues may depend on the extent of its marketing activities and its research and
development activities, both of which are limited. There are no assurances that the resources that
the Company can devote to marketing and to research and development will be sufficient to increase
its revenues to levels that will enable it to maintain positive operating cash flow in the future.
Inability to Obtain Raw Materials and Products for Resale. The Companys adverse financial
condition has required it to significantly defer payments due to (i) vendors who supply raw
materials and other components of its security inks and (ii) providers of professional and other
services. As a result, the Company is required to pay cash in advance of shipment to certain of its
suppliers. The inability to obtain materials on a timely basis and the possibility that certain
vendors may permanently discontinue supplying the Company with needed products and services
threaten to result in delayed shipments to customers and further impact the Companys ability to
service its customers, thereby adversely affecting the Companys relationships with its customers
and licensees. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to maintain its vendor
relationships in an acceptable manner.
Uneven Pattern of Quarterly and Annual Operating Results. The Companys revenues, which are derived
primarily from licensing, royalties and sales of products incorporating its technologies, are
difficult to forecast; such forecasting difficulty is due to, among other reasons, the long sales
cycle of the Companys technologies, the potential for customer delay or deferral of implementation
of the Companys technologies, the size and timing of inception of individual license agreements,
the success of the Companys licensees and strategic partners in exploiting the market for the
licensed products, modifications of customer budgets, and uneven patterns of royalty revenue and
product orders. As the Companys revenue base is not substantial, delays in finalizing license
contracts, implementing the technology to initiate the revenue stream and ordering decisions of
customers can have a material adverse effect on the Companys quarterly and annual revenue
expectations. As the Companys operating expenses are substantially fixed, income expectations will
be subject to a similar adverse outcome. As licensees for the entertainment and toy products
markets are added, the predictability of the Companys revenue stream may be further impacted.
16
Volatility of Stock Price. The market price for the Companys common stock has historically
experienced significant fluctuations and may continue to do so. From inception, with the exception
of 2007, the Company has operated at a loss and has not produced revenue levels
traditionally associated with publicly-traded companies. The Companys common stock is not listed
on a national or regional securities exchange and, consequently, the Company receives limited
publicity regarding its business achievements and prospects. Additionally, securities analysts and
traders do not extensively follow the Companys stock and its stock is thinly traded. The Companys
market price may be affected by announcements of new relationships or modifications to existing
relationships. The stock prices of many developing public companies, particularly those with small
capitalizations, have experienced wide fluctuations not necessarily related to operating
performance. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Companys common stock.
Intellectual Property. The Company relies on a combination of protections provided under applicable
international patent, trademark and trade secret laws. The Company also relies on confidentiality,
non-analysis and licensing agreements to establish and protect its rights in its proprietary
technologies. While the Company actively attempts to protect these rights, its technologies may be
compromised through reverse engineering or other means. In addition, the Companys ability to
enforce its intellectual property rights through appropriate legal action has been and will
continue to be limited by its adverse liquidity. There can be no assurances that the Company will
be able to protect the basis of its technologies from discovery by unauthorized third parties or to
preclude unauthorized persons from conducting activities that infringe on the Companys rights. The
Companys adverse liquidity situation also impacts its ability to obtain patent protection on its
intellectual property and to maintain protection on previously issued patents. The Company is not
aware of any patent maintenance fees due during 2011. There can be no assurances that the Company
will be able to continue to prosecute new patents and maintain issued patents. As a result, the
Companys customer and licensee relationships could be adversely affected, and the value of the
Companys technologies and intellectual property (including their value upon liquidation) could be
substantially diminished.
Economic Conditions. The Companys revenue is susceptible to changes in general economic conditions
and the present global recession that is expected to continue during 2011. The Companys sales,
liquidity and overall results of operations may be negatively affected by decreasing consumer
confidence, further slowdowns in consumer spending or other downturns in the U.S. economy as a
whole or in any geographic markets from which the Company derives revenue. In addition, these
factors may result in decreased customer and licensee demand for the Companys products and
negatively impact the Companys ability to develop new customers and licensees. Due to the
uncertainty surrounding the financial crisis, the Company is unable to predict the effect of such
conditions on its customers and licensees. Consequently, the Company cannot predict the scope or
magnitude of the negative effect resulting from an ongoing global financial crisis and economic
slowdown.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310). This update requires new
disclosures and enhances current disclosures about the allowance for credit losses and the credit
quality of financing receivables. However, the following receivables are excluded from the scope of
this amendment: receivables measured at fair value with changes included in earnings and
receivables measured at lower of cost or market and trade receivables with contractual maturities
of one year or less that arose from the sale of goods or services. This standard is effective for
interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted the disclosure
requirements effective January 1, 2011.
As of March 31, 2011, there were no other recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a
material effect on the Companys financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
As of March 31, 2011, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted which would

Controls and Procedures |
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the
Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report,
that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified within the rules and
forms of the SEC, and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in these reports is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting (as such
term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal
quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
controls over financial reporting.

Item 3. |
|
Defaults Upon Senior Securities |
During 2010 and the first three months of 2011, the Company accepted unsecured loans
totaling $65,500 from five individuals and repaid $15,000 of the loans received. The
acceptance of these unsecured loans constituted a violation of certain covenants of the
Companys $100,000 line of credit with a bank. Under the terms of the line of credit
agreement, this covenant violation is an event of default in the amount of $87,500, the
total amount outstanding under the line of credit at March 31, 2011.
