ITEM 1.    BUSINESS.

 

Overview

 

We are an emerging leader in the regenerative medicine market using adult autologous stromal vascular fraction cells (SVFs) derived from the blood vessels in adipose tissue.  Among other cell types, stromal vascular fraction contains adult stem cells. We believe that our cell therapy processes and procedures are exempt under PHS Section 361, CFR 1271.10 or CFR 1271.15(b) same day surgical procedure.  Therefore, we do not believe that we will be required to obtain Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) drug or biologic like approvals, although there can be no assurance that the FDA will require our products to obtain approval in the future.

 

We currently operate from Regen Medical PC office based surgery center facility in New York, NY, an entity controlled by Dr. Steven Victor, our chief executive officer, where we have our cGTP (current good tissue practices) cellular processing laboratory which is registered with the FDA. It is our intent to place our cGTP cellular processing labs in ambulatory surgery centers or hospitals and operate them under cGTP and SOPs in other major US metropolitan areas.

 

The Company anticipates that it will have multiple revenue streams in the next 12 months including, but not limited to: (i) cellular product sales revenues, (ii) continuing medical education courses, (iii) cell banking, (iv) international licenses and royalties.

Our Technology

 

We use a proprietary, patented technology developed by our founder, Dr. Steven Victor, which provides us with the ability to extract, separate and process the stromal vascular fraction cells from the blood vessels in adult adipose (fat) tissue in about one hour. We believe that our technology produces the most cells from the least amount of fat (60 cc) at the lowest cost and the least amount of manipulation when compared to other technology or processes currently available that employ manipulative processes or enzymes to achieve cell separation.  Further, all cells manufactured using our technology and proprietary process are done so under strict United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cGTP guidelines and SOPs that we have established.

 

We believe that stromular vascular fraction (“SVFs”) derived from the application of our proprietary process yield a functionally diverse population of cells that are synergistic and able to communicate with each other and with other cells in their local environment. We also believe that since we do not have to wash out the blood and do not digest the extracellular matrix versus competitors’ enzymatic protocols that our product is superior. The mixture of cells has multiple functions and is highly integrated and we believe more potent than adipose stem cells themselves.

 

We further believe that IntelliCells™, when returned to a patient’s own body by way of same-day same clinical procedure (autologous treatment) and delivered via Point of Care, have little or no risk of disease transfer, rejection or allergic reaction. We also believe that IntelliCells™ have the potential to treat a wide variety of clinical conditions involving orthopedic, gastrointestinal, periodontal, aesthetic and other conditions or disorders.

 

Our Strategy

 

We plan to focus our initial efforts on regenerative medicine in the areas of orthopedics, sports medicine, pain, aesthetics and periodontal diseases. According to arthritistoday.org, at least 25 million people nationwide are affected in the world of orthopedics, sports medicine and pain, which, just nationally, makes that a penetrable market into the billions of dollars. Likewise, according to Research and Markets Aesthetics Report and Global Data’s market report for the periodontal market, the aesthetics and periodontal markets make up at least a minimum of $750 million and over a billion dollar market, respectively.  We will focus on orthopedics including osteoarthritis, aesthetics, pain, periodontal and other indications by making our Intellicells™ available to practicing physicians using Regen Medical’s office based surgical center (“OBSC”).  We plan to establish and install our cGTP cellular processing labs in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals to make our cellular product available to a wide range of physician specialties to use under the practice of medicine.  We believe that we may also be able to license our technology for wound care, cardiac, gastrointestinal (colitis/ileitis), multiple sclerosis and autism to other companies in the regenerative medicine field.

 

In addition to our core focus noted above in which we provide cGTP cellular processing labs, we also intend to expand our areas of focus, as we are able to locate and partner with parties interested in utilizing or licensing our technology for other areas.  In this regard, we intend to engage in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization of our proprietary process that will involve entering into technology licensing agreements and related service agreements with physicians and physician practice groups, that we will enable to practice our cell therapy procedures in our US facilities. We will also be seeking to enter into technology licensing agreements or other arrangements that cover particular international territories or countries as described in greater detail below.

 

Another focus of our business development will involve engaging in and our coordinating Institutional Review Board (”IRB”) approved clinical studies at prominent medical centers, some of which studies may also be the subject of Investigational New Drug applications (“IND’s”) with the goal of obtaining medical or regulatory approval for significant clinical indications, where, if and as required, of the Intellicells™ produced with our proprietary process. We have recently formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, ICBS Research, Inc., through which we plan to engage in research and development activities by collaborating with university based research organizations.  We have started our first FDA IND study that will be on osteoarthritis of the knee with Dr. James Andrews and inVentiv as our CRO. We believe these activities may lead to additional patents and intellectual. ICBS Research, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, will also coordinate scientific research with world class researchers to learn more about the Intellicell™ process and the use of the cells in medical procedures and as to how it may be used as a more efficacious delivery mechanism or as to how it may be co-administered in conjunction with other medical therapies. In the future Intellicell plans to conduct human clinical studies under an IND in osteoarthritis of the knee, diabetic ulcers of the lower extremities, multiple sclerosis, periodontal gum recession and dermal wrinkles to obtain FDA approval where such approval may be necessary.

 

5
 

 

We are also exploring and undertaking, either on our own or in collaboration with one or more third parties, providing a service for the collection, processing and storage of autologous cells. We intend to market this service to liposuction patients in addition to any patient who might want to store their SVFs for future use.

 

Our Competitive Advantage

 

We believe that our proprietary process offers significant advantages over other competing processes or technologies currently being employed that utilize enzymes or other manipulative methods to harvest or culture cells, including:

 

We believe that our process is in compliance with existing FDA regulations – under current FDA Guidelines for human cell and tissue based products (HCT/P) (based on FDA regulations found at 21 C.F.R. § 1271), patients are allowed to use their own HCT/P for just about any indication, so long as the use of those cells is autologous (a situation in which the donor and recipient are the same person), the cells are minimally manipulated, the clinical use is homologous, and the procedure takes place as a single procedure as defined by the physician.

 

Our procedure takes place during the same office visit. The point of care nature of the process is a required element of the protocol required by our licenses, and is emphasized in our technician and physician training.

 

We believe that the number of adult autologous stem cells and other progenitor cells that comprise the SVF’s that are harvested from the tissue through the use of our proprietary process are significantly higher than the number of cells produced through the use of other technology or processes currently available that employ manipulative processes or enzymes to achieve cell separation.

 

We had engaged Millipore, a division of Merck, to perform a CD (cluster of differentiation) antibody flow cytometry study which has confirmed the high-quality composition of the IntelliCells™.

 

We believe that our patented process provides significant time and cost efficiencies at the point of care- using our proprietary ultrasound cavitation technique, SVFs can be separated at low cost and in less time, as compared to competing technologies that utilize enzymes.

 

We also believe that IntelliCells™ have the potential to treat not only aesthetic conditions, orthopedic and sports injuries, and pain, but also a wide variety of clinical conditions involving cardiac, gastrointestinal, periodontal, and autistic disorders. In that regard, we will be seeking to undertake clinical studies in partnership with well-known universities and hospitals for the following indications and markets:

 

Application   Market
Osteoarthritis   Internal Medicine and Orthopedic
Gum Regeneration   Periodontal
Non-healing Diabetic Ulcers   Wound healing
Multiple Sclerosis   Internal Medicine
Cartilage Regeneration   Orthopedic and Sports Medicine
Tendon Repair   Orthopedic and Sports Medicine

The Regenerative Medicine Market

 

Overview of Stromal Vascular Fraction

 

Stromal Vascular Fraction (“Fraction”) is the cells obtained from the blood vessels in the lipoaspirate from the small volume of fat harvested, minus the fat cells (adipocytes) and non-cellular material. The Fraction contains a wide number of cellular types including pre-adipocytes, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, pericytes, fibroblasts, and adult stem cells (ASCs). In addition, the Fraction also contains blood cells from the capillaries supplying the adipocytes and the extracellular matrix. We refer to this mixture of cells as SVF or SVF cells or SVFC.

 

SVF also includes erythrocytes or red blood cells, B and T cells, macrophages, monocytes, mast cells, natural killer (NK) cells, hematopoietic stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells and more. Also the Fraction includes adipocyte endocrine secretions, and importantly, contains growth factors such as transforming growth factor beta (TGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF), among others.

 

This is very much like the secretions of cells in the presence of an extracellular matrix. The SVF also contains the various proteins present in the tissue extracellular matrix.

 

How Do SVFs work?

 

Investigators have postulated a number of nonexclusive mechanisms through which SVFs can be used to repair and regenerate tissues. First, adult stem cells within the SVF delivered into an injured or diseased tissue may secrete cytokines and growth factors that stimulate recovery in a paracrine manner. These factors would modulate the “stem cell niche” of the host by stimulating the recruitment of endogenous stem cells to the site and promoting their differentiation along the required lineage pathway.

 

In a related manner, SVFs might provide antioxidants chemicals, free radical scavengers, and chaperone/heat shock proteins at an ischemic site. As a result, toxic substances released into the local environment would be removed, thereby promoting recovery of the surviving cells. Studies have suggested that transplanted bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells or MSCs can deliver new mitochondria to damaged cells, thereby rescuing aerobic metabolism. It may develop that similar studies in SVFs will uncover a comparable ability to contribute mitochondria. A final mechanism is to differentiate components of SVFs along a desired cellular lineage.

The Process of SVF Extraction

 

We intend to use our patented, proprietary laboratory system, which we have developed internally, that is composed primarily of an ultrasound unit and a centrifuge, and is performed in a closed sterile system which is readily available in the marketplace in conjunction with a proprietary closed process for the initial separating of SVF from vascular tissue found to be contained in adipose tissue. This process includes the use of a flow cytometer that will allow for immediate verification of the quantity and viability of processed cells prior to their reintroduction back to the same patient, a process overlooked by alternative systems and processes.

 

The extraction process for the SVF cell therapies can be summarized as follows:

 

1.   Harvest :

 

  Using a simple procedure, a cannulae attached to a syringe is inserted into the abdomen or other location for fat extraction and 60 cc of adipose tissue is harvested from the patient. This is sufficient for most treatments and cell storage of excess SVFC.

 

7
 

 

2.   Separate :

 

  The harvested tissue is then broken down using an ultrasound mechanical separation process, leaving substantially all of the cells viable but allowing them to be separated from the non-cellular material.

 

  The mix of SVF cells and unwanted materials are spun down in a centrifuge to isolate the desired cells that form a “pellet” like substance that can be drawn out of the now separated materials.

 

  The cells are tested with a flow cytometer to determine cell count and cell viability.

 

3.   Return :

 

  The cells are then administered back to the same patient by their physician under the practice of medicine through one or more of the following modes of administration:

 

  Intravenous: The SVF's may be administered through a standard intravenous drip.

 

  Intra-articular injection: The SVF's may be injected into and around an arthritic or injured joint such as the knee or shoulder.

 

  Intra-oral injection: The SVF's may be injected into the oral cavity in the particular region around teeth where gum recession has been observed.

 

4.   Cell Banking :

 

  Banking of stem cells is useful for some procedures that require repeat therapeutic administration as well as for other therapeutic uses that may be required in the future.  The Company currently does not have a cell banking license in New York State, but has applied for the license.

Market Data

 

Regenerative Medicine and Cell Therapy Overview

 

GRAPH

 

Source:  Proteus Venture Partners

 

Regenerative Medicine (RM) is a rapidly expanding set of innovative medical technologies that restore function by enabling the body to repair, replace, and regenerate damaged, aging or diseased cells, tissues and organs.

 

According to a recent report, Worldwide Markets and Emerging Technologies for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, by Life Science Intelligence (LSI), the largely untapped global market potential for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine products will exceed $118 billion by 2013. The actual current market, which represents only a fraction of the potential market, was estimated at $1.5 billion in 2008. The report forecasts rapid growth driven by various factors, including increased adoption in various clinical areas and trends in international markets.

 

Regenerative therapies have been demonstrated (in trials or the laboratory) to heal broken bones, treat severe burns, blindness, deafness, heart damage, nerve damage, Parkinson's Disease, diabetes and other conditions. Significant momentum has been achieved in recent years as evidenced by the surge in government and foundation research funding, with over 65 academic programs and more than $1.5 billion in worldwide funding for research, expected to grow to $14 billion in 10 years. There are greater than 175,000 peer-reviewed publications, over 10,000 issued and pending patents, and more than 900 FDA-approved clinical trials testing regenerative medicine technologies. More than 400 regenerative medicine products have reached the market today, with more than 600 in development. This, in turn, has led to a proliferation of patient advocacy groups rightfully demanding a shift in medical treatment paradigms from "band aid therapies" to prevention, cure, rejuvenation, restoration, and replacement. More than 1.2 million patients have been treated with regenerative products and therapies.

Licensing

 

As described above, we intend to engage in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization of our proprietary process that will focus on:

 

Entering into licensing agreements and related service agreements with ambulatory surgery centers or hospitals that are located in the United States that provide for the sale of our cellular products, from our labs that will receive lipoaspirate harvested from their patients and employ our proprietary process to the obtain the IntelliCell™ product, and then return the IntelliCell™ product to the physician on the same day labeled “autologous and homologous.” In these arrangements, the clinical use of these IntelliCells™ is not specified in labeling or promotion, but will be left solely to the physician in the exercise of their medical judgment and under the practice of medicine. Under these arrangements, we will be collecting processing fees and/or service fees from the physicians or hospitals.

 

Entering into technology licensing agreements that cover a particular international territory or country pursuant to which the licensee shall have the right to set up and/or sublicense the right to set up labs in the territory using equipment purchased from us and that are operated in accordance with protocols set by us. Under these arrangements, we will be collecting an up-front territorial licensing fee and then will receive additional fees based upon from sublicensing and/or processing fees received by the licensees during the term of the license.

We believe that such parties were also in default and/or non-compliance with the duties, obligation or responsibility imposed upon them by the agreement, and we intend to pursue our remedies and/or vigorously defend ourselves against any claims made by such parties.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

Our current marketing objectives focus on achieving rapid growth by entering into agreements to install our cGTP cellular processing lab in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals located in the United States that initially focus on regenerative medicine in the areas of Aesthetics, Orthopedics, Sports Medicine, Pain Management and Periodontal Diseases, and by entering into technology licensing agreements that cover a particular international territory or country. Finally, another focus of our business development will involve engaging in and our coordinating clinical studies at prominent medical centers with the goal of obtaining FDA approval for major clinical indications of the SVF’s yielded from the use of our proprietary process.

 

Research and Development

 

We have recently formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, ICBS Research, Inc., through which we plan to conduct research and development activities on our own and in combination with academic, government and industry collaborators.

 

In contemplation of our proposed research and development activities, in December 2011, we entered into a strategic collaborative agreement with Numoda Corporation, a large Contract Research Organization (CRO) that provides a number of clinical research services to the biotech industry.  Under the terms of the agreement, Numoda agreed to invest $500,000 into us based on our achievement of certain milestones to be agreed upon between the parties, in exchange for our contracting with Numoda to provide CRO services in planned in-human clinical studies commencing in 2012. As of the date hereof, Numoda has not invested any money into the Company.

 

We have also had preliminary discussions with several researchers and Universities regarding the establishment of clinical studies for the purpose of exploring therapeutic use of IntelliCells™. The currently contemplated initial areas under study with proposed partners are:

 

Osteoarthritis;

 

Non-healing diabetic ulcers (wound healing); and

 

Military severe injuries deploying the IntelliCell™ product (process) on the battlefield as part of the care provider on-site.

 

15
 

 

The October 2011 Issue of the Journal of Implant & Advanced Clinical Dentistry published an article on a prospective pilot study on the clinical application of SVF with stem cells in the treatment of gingival recession defects using our proprietary process to be conducted by Dr. Nicholas Toscano. Dr. Toscano is a member of our advisory board.  

 

As previously disclosed above, we have started our first FDA IND study that will be on osteoarthritis of the knee with Dr. James Andrews and inVentiv as our CRO. On March 11, 2014, the Company executed a Consulting Agreement with Dr. James Andrews, effective March 7, 2014, pursuant to which Dr. Andrews shall serve as Chairman of the Intellicell Orthopedic Cellular Therapy Advisory Board.

 

Competition

 

We compete with many pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and bio tools companies, as well as other private and public stem cell companies involved in the development and commercialization of cell-based medical technologies and therapies in the regenerative medicine industry. Regenerative medicine is a rapidly evolving industry, primarily through the development of cell-based therapies or devices designed to isolate cells from human tissues. Most efforts involve cell sources, such as bone marrow, embryonic and fetal tissue, umbilical cord and peripheral blood and skeletal muscle. Companies working in the area of regenerative medicine include, among others, Cytori Therapeutics, Stem Cell Assurance, Inc., Osiris, Aastrom Biosciences, Aldagen, BioTime, Baxter International, Celgene, Geron, Harvest Technologies, Mesoblast, Regenexx, NeoStem, X-Cell Center, Stem Cells, Athersys, and Tissue Genesis.  Companies working in the area of biological tools include, among others, Life Technologies, Asterand, Pacific Biosciences of California, and AllCells. Currently, we are aware of certain regenerative medical companies that provide processes for extracting SVF containing adult stem cells from adipose (fat) tissue.  As techniques for expanding the use of stem cells improve, the use of collection techniques of adult stem cells could increase and compete with our services. Many of our competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technological, research and development, marketing and personnel resources than we do.  We cannot with any accuracy forecast when or if these companies are likely to bring cell therapies to market for procedures that we are also pursuing. 

 

Patents and Proprietary Rights

 

Our success will likely depend upon our ability to preserve our proprietary patented process and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of other parties. However, we may rely on certain proprietary technologies and know-how that are not patentable or that we determine to keep as trade secrets. We intend to protect our proprietary information, in part, by the use of confidentiality and assignment of invention agreements with our officers, directors, employees, consultants, significant scientific collaborators and sponsored researchers that will generally provide that all inventions conceived by the individual in the course of rendering services to us shall be our exclusive property.   The following table identifies the published pending patent applications that are owned by us:

When appropriate, we will continue to seek patent protection for inventions in our core technologies and in ancillary technologies that support our core technologies or which we otherwise believe will provide us with a competitive advantage. We will accomplish this by filing and maintaining patent applications for discoveries we make, either alone or in collaboration with scientific collaborators and strategic partners. Typically, we plan to file patent applications in the United States. In addition, we plan to obtain licenses or options to acquire licenses to patent filings from other individuals and organizations that we anticipate could be useful in advancing our research, development and commercialization initiatives and our strategic business interest.

 

Government Regulation

 

The health care industry is highly regulated in the United States. The federal government, through various departments and agencies, and state and local governments regulate and monitor the health care industry. The following is a general overview of the laws and regulations pertaining to our business.

 

Human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (“HCT/Ps”) Regulation

 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) regulates the manufacture of human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (“HCT/Ps”) under the authority of Section 361 of the Public Health Safety Act (“PHS Act”) and exercises this authority pursuant to the regulations governing HCT/Ps in Part 1271 in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

 

The FDA regulatory requirements for HCT/Ps, such as IntelliCells™, are complex and evolving. The FDA sets forth criteria for determining whether an HCT/P can be regulated solely under Section 361 of the PHS Act,  i.e. , as a “361 HCT/P.” A 361 HCT/P is regulated solely as an HCT/P, without additional regulation as a medical device, drug, or biologic.

 

Under the FDA regulations, an HCT/P qualifies as a 361 HCT/P if it meets all of the following criteria:  (i) it is minimally manipulated; (ii) it is intended for homologous use only, as reflected by labeling, advertising, or other indications of the manufacturer’s objective intent; (iii) it is not combined with a device, drug or biologic (with limited exceptions); and (iv) either (a) it does not have a systemic effect and is not dependent upon metabolic activity for its primary function (with certain exceptions) or (b) it does have a systemic effect or is dependent upon metabolic activity for its primary function and is intended for certain uses, including autologous use. Such 361 HCT/Ps may be commercially distributed without the FDA’s premarket clearance or approval.  The FDA permits manufacturers to proceed to market based upon a self-determination that a product qualifies as a 361 HCT/P. The FDA reserves the right to disagree, and also has voluntary procedures for obtaining an advance agency determination. We believe the autologous stem cells that are derived from the IntelliCells™ process meet the FDA’s requirements to be regulated solely as 361 HCT/Ps, and have proceeded to market on that basis.

 

17
 

 

The regulatory requirements of 21 C.F.R. Part 1271 applicable to HCT/Ps include the following:

 

registration and listing of HCT/Ps with the FDA;
   
current good tissue practices, specifically including requirements for the facilities, environmental controls, equipment, supplies and reagents, recovery of HCT/Ps from the patient, processing, storage, labeling and document controls, and distribution and shipment of the HCT/Ps to the laboratory, storage, or other facility;
   
tracking and traceability of HCT/Ps and equipment, supplies, and reagents used in the manufacture of HCT/Ps;
   
adverse event reporting;
   
FDA inspection;
   
importation of HCT/Ps; and
   
abiding by any FDA order of retention, recall, destruction, and cessation of manufacturing of HCT/Ps.

 

We believe the donor screening requirements in Part 1271 do not apply because our product is made from autologous tissue.

 

Possible Additional FDA Device, Drug, or Biologic Regulatory Requirements

 

On March 13, 2012, the Company received a regulatory Warning Letter from FDA regarding the Intellicell™ process. A Warning Letter is an FDA notification to a regulated company that the Agency believes the company to have violated the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (“FDC Act”), but it is not considered final agency enforcement action. The March Warning Letter stated that FDA believed the Intellicell™ process to be a new drug or a biologic product requiring a new drug application (“NDA”) or biologics license application ("BLA").  This was based on statements that the Agency believed that the Company was using adipose tissues for non-homologous use, and that these cells were more than minimally manipulated.  Such products would not be considered HCT/Ps regulated solely under section 361 of the PHS Act.  The Warning Letter also noted a number of cGMP issues at the Intellicell lab facility (which the Company has since shut down and moved).

 

On April 2, 2012, the Company timely submitted a comprehensive response to the Warning Letter that provided a detailed explanation of the Intellicell™ process, which uses non-adipose adult stem cells in the SVF matrix (i.e., our adult autologous vascular cells).  The letter further explained how the SVF product is used, and why it should be considered appropriate homologous use under section 361 of the PHS Act and FDA regulations at 21 C.F.R. § 1271.  The response letter noted that all of the cells contained in SVF are characteristic of vascular tissue, and are simply extracted from adipose tissue.

 

On November 19, 2012, the Company received a letter (the “FDA Letter”) from the FDA as part of its ongoing discussion and correspondence with the FDA regarding a warning letter the Company received from the FDA on March 13, 2012. The FDA stated in the FDA Letter that it believes that the Company’s process does not meet the definition of minimal manipulation, does not fall within the definition of homologous use of the adipose tissue and is not the same surgical procedure under 21 CFR 1271.3(f)(1), 21 CFR 1271.10(a)(2) and 21 CFR 1271.15(b), respectively, and as such, the Company is required to have FDA approval for its product, and file an investigational new drug (IND) application for planned in-human clinical studies. In December 2012, the Company filed an appeal with FDA under 21 CFR 1075 for internal review of the FDA’s decisions.    The Company has made every effort to comply with FDA requirements for human cell and tissue products (“HCT/Ps”) that are not subject to FDA pre-approval and it continues to believe that its product/process is compliant with currently FDA requirements.

 

The response letter also notified FDA that we were opening a new facility that would be fully cGMP compliant, and that the Company had retained several expert consultants to assist in quality and regulatory compliance. We believe that the steps we have taken should resolve the FDA regulatory issues noted in the Warning Letter; however, there is no guarantee that FDA will agree with our position on the regulatory status of the AAVC product or on cGMP compliance.

 

18
 

 

If the FDA were to disagree with our conclusion that IntelliCells™ qualify as a 361 HCT/P, then IntelliCells™ could be subject to additional FDA regulatory requirements applicable to medical devices or drugs under the FDC Act or biological products under Section 351 of the PHS Act and implementing regulations, depending upon which of these categories FDA concluded applies to IntelliCells™.

 

The Company underwent a thorough inspection by the FDA from May 14, 2013 through June 2, 2013, of its cellular laboratory facility. The observations from the FDA inspection were provided to the company in the Form 483. The Company has responded to those observations in a timely manner. IntelliCell has taken the necessary actions to address the relevant observations of the FDA inspection.

 

Medical Device Regulation

 

The FDA regulates the design/development process, clinical testing, manufacture, safety, labeling, sale, distribution, and promotion of medical devices under the FDC Act. Included among these regulations are premarket clearance and premarket approval requirements, and the Quality System Regulation (which imposes Good Manufacturing Practice requirements). Other statutory and regulatory requirements govern, among other things, registration and inspection, medical device listing, prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration, labeling, and post-market reporting.

 

The regulatory clearance/approval process can be lengthy, expensive, and uncertain. Unless an exemption applies, any medical device that we would bring to market must first receive either premarket notification clearance (by making a 510(k) submission) or premarket approval (by filing a premarket approval application (“PMA”)) from the FDA pursuant to the FDC Act. In addition, certain modifications made to marketed devices also may require 510(k) clearance or approval of a PMA supplement. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance process usually takes from four to twelve months, but it may take longer. The process of obtaining PMA approval is much more costly and uncertain and may take one or more years from the time the process is initiated. We cannot be sure that 510(k) clearance or PMA approval will be obtained for any product that we propose to market.

 

A clinical study in support of a PMA application or 510(k) submission for a “significant risk” device requires an Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”) application approved in advance by the FDA for a limited number of patients. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results. If the device presents a “non-significant risk” to the patient, a sponsor may begin the clinical study without the need for FDA approval. In all cases, the clinical study must be conducted under the auspices of an Institutional Review Board (“IRB”) pursuant to the FDA’s regulatory requirements intended for the protection of subjects and to assure the integrity and validity of the data.

 

Medical devices are subject to post-market reporting requirements when the device may have caused or contributed to the death or serious injury, and for certain device malfunctions that would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. If safety or effectiveness problems occur after the product reaches the market, the FDA may take steps to prevent or limit further marketing of the product. The FDA actively enforces regulations prohibiting marketing and promotion of devices for indications or uses that have not been cleared or approved by the FDA. Modifications or enhancements of products that could affect the safety or effectiveness or effect a major change in the intended use of a device that was either cleared through the 510(k) process or approved through the PMA process may require further FDA review through new 510(k) or PMA submissions.

  

Failure to comply with applicable requirements can result in application integrity proceedings, fines, recalls or seizures of products, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspensions of production, withdrawals of existing product approvals or clearances, refusals to approve or clear new applications or notifications, and criminal prosecution.

Drug and Biological Product Regulation

 

To obtain approval of a drug or biological product from the FDA, a company must, among other requirements, submit data supporting safety and efficacy as well as detailed information on the manufacture and composition of the product. In most cases, this entails extensive laboratory tests and preclinical and clinical trials.  The collection of these data, as well as the preparation of applications for review by the FDA, are costly in time and effort, and may require significant capital investment.

 

A company typically conducts human clinical trials in three sequential phases, but the phases may overlap. Phase 1 trials consist of testing of the product in a small number of patients or healthy volunteers, primarily for safety at one or more doses. Phase 2 trials, in addition to safety, evaluate the efficacy of the product in a patient population somewhat larger than Phase 1 trials. Phase 3 trials typically involve additional testing for safety and clinical efficacy in an expanded population at geographically dispersed test sites. A company must submit to the FDA a protocol, which must also be approved by the IRBs at the institutions participating in the trials, prior to commencement of each clinical trial. The trials must be conducted in accordance with the FDA’s good clinical practices. The FDA may order the temporary or permanent discontinuation of a clinical trial at any time.

 

To obtain marketing authorization, a company must submit to the FDA the results of the preclinical and clinical testing, together with, and among other things, detailed information on the manufacture and composition of the product, in the form of a NDA, or, in the case of a biologic, a BLA. Under federal law, the submission of most NDAs and BLAs is subject to a substantial application user fee, currently exceeding $1.5 million, and the manufacturer and/or sponsor under an approved NDA or BLA are also subject to annual product and establishment user fees, currently exceeding $86,000 per product and $497,000 per establishment. These fees are typically increased annually. We cannot be sure that NDA or BLA approval would be obtained for any product that we propose to market.

 

All approved drug and biological products are subject to continuing regulation by the FDA, including record-keeping requirements, reporting of adverse experiences with the product, sampling and distribution requirements, notifying the FDA and gaining its approval of certain manufacturing or labeling changes, complying with certain electronic records and signature requirements, submitting periodic reports to the FDA, maintaining and providing updated safety and efficacy information to the FDA, and complying with FDA promotion and advertising requirements. Failure to comply with the statutory and regulatory requirements can subject a manufacturer to possible legal or regulatory action, such as warning letters, suspension of manufacturing, seizure of product, injunctive action, criminal prosecution, or civil penalties.

    

The FDA may require post-marketing studies or clinical trials to develop additional information regarding the safety of a product. These studies or trials may involve continued testing of a product and development of data, including clinical data, about the product’s effects in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use. The FDA may require post-marketing studies or trials to investigate known serious risks or signals of serious risks or identify unexpected serious risks and may require periodic status reports if new safety information develops. Failure to conduct these studies in a timely manner may result in substantial civil fines.

 

Drug and biological product manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain state agencies, and to list their products with the FDA. The FDA periodically inspects manufacturing facilities in the United States and abroad in order to assure compliance with the applicable current good manufacturing practices (“cGMP”) regulations and other requirements. Facilities also are subject to inspections by other federal, foreign, state, or local agencies. In complying with the cGMP regulations, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in record-keeping and quality control to assure that the product meets applicable specifications and other post-marketing requirements. We must ensure that any third-party manufacturers continue to expend time, money and effort in the areas of production, quality control, record keeping and reporting to ensure full compliance with those requirements.  Failure to comply with these requirements subjects the manufacturer to possible legal or regulatory action, such as suspension of manufacturing or recall or seizure of product.

 

20
 

 

Newly discovered or developed safety or efficacy data may require changes to a product’s approved labeling, including the addition of new warnings and contraindications, additional preclinical or clinical studies, or even in some instances, revocation or withdrawal of the approval. Violations of regulatory requirements at any stage, including after approval, may result in various adverse consequences, including the FDA’s withdrawal of an approved product from the market, other voluntary or FDA-initiated action that could delay or restrict further marketing, and the imposition of civil fines and criminal penalties against the manufacturer and NDA or BLA holder. Later discovery of previously unknown problems may result in restrictions on the product, manufacturer or NDA or BLA holder, including withdrawal of the product from the market. New government requirements may be established that could delay or prevent regulatory approval, or affect the conditions under which approved products are marketed.

  

State and Local Government Regulation

 

Some states and local governments regulate human tissue banking facilities and require these facilities to obtain specific licenses. Our processing centers may be required to comply with such state laws, including becoming licensed as a tissue bank and being subject to inspection. Some states, such as New York, California and Maryland, may require licensure of out-of-state facilities that process tissue of residents of those states. We must obtain the applicable state licensures for our processing centers and comply with the current and any new licensing laws that become applicable in the future.

 

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act—Protection of Patient Health Information

 

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) included the Administrative Simplification  provisions that require the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) to publicize standards for the electronic exchange, privacy, and security of health information. HHS published the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information  (“Privacy Rule”) and the  Security Standards for the Protection of Electronic Protected Health Information  (“Security Rule”) to protect the privacy and security of certain health information. The Privacy Rule addresses the use and disclosure of an individual’s protected health information by covered entities and applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and any health care provider who transmits health information in electronic format. In addition to these entities, the Privacy Rule also applies to business associates and requires certain requirements to be placed in contracts between business associates and covered entities.

 

The Security Rule establishes a national security standard for protecting certain health information that is held or transferred in electronic form. The Security Rule implements the protections in the Privacy Rule by addressing the technical and non-technical safeguards that covered entities must put in place to secure individuals’ electronic protected health information.

 

Companies failing to comply with the HIPAA standards may be subject to civil money penalties or criminal prosecution. To the extent that our business requires compliance with HIPAA, it intends to fully comply with all requirements.

 

Other Applicable U.S. Laws

 

In addition to the above-described regulation by United States federal and state government, the following are other federal and state laws and regulations that could directly or indirectly affect our ability to operate the business:

 

state and local licensure, registration, and regulation of the development of pharmaceuticals and biologics;
   
state and local licensure of medical professionals;
   
state statutes and regulations related to the corporate practice of medicine;
   
other laws and regulations administered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration;
   
other laws and regulations administered by the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services;
   
state and local laws and regulations governing human subject research and clinical trials;
   
the federal physician self-referral prohibition, also known as Stark Law, and any state equivalents to Stark Law;
   
the Medicare and Medicaid Anti-Kickback Law and any state equivalent statutes and regulations;
   
Federal and state coverage and reimbursement laws and regulations;
   
state and local laws and regulations for the disposal and handling of medical waste and biohazardous material; and
   
Occupational Safety and Health (“OSHA”) regulations and requirements.

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2013, we had 6 full-time employees. We have not experienced any work disruptions or stoppages and we consider our relationship with our employees to be strong. None of our employees are covered by a collective-bargaining agreement.

 

Our Website

 

Our website address is www.intellicellbiosciences.com. Information found on our website is not incorporated by reference into this report. We make available free of charge through our website our SEC filings furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC.

 

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS.

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In determining whether to purchase our common stock, an investor should carefully consider all of the material risks described below, together with the other information contained in this report before making a decision to purchase our securities. An investor should only purchase our securities if he or she can afford to suffer the loss of his or her entire investment.

 

Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry

 

We are a development-stage company with a limited operating history, no marketed tests and substantial losses predicted for the foreseeable future.

 

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary commenced operations in the regenerative medicine industry in August 2010.  As such, we have a limited operating history and have not earned any profits to date.  To date, we have not achieved, and we may never achieve, revenues sufficient to offset expenses. We expect to devote substantially all of our resources to the completion of build-out of our Ambulatory Surgical Center in New York, NY, the cell processing laboratory within that facility and develop and commercialize our regenerative medical products.

 

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing and commercializing our regenerative medical products, we are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if ever. We may never become profitable and you may never receive a return on an investment in our shares of common stock. An investor in our common shares must carefully consider the substantial challenges, risks and uncertainties inherent in the attempted development and commercialization of procedures and products in the medical, cell therapy, biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries. We may never successfully commercialize our regenerative medical products, and our business may fail.

 

Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In their report dated May 9, 2014, Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company LLP stated that our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of our recurring losses from operations and our net capital deficiency. We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit.

 

22
 

 

Our regenerative medical products may not gain acceptance among physicians, healthcare professionals and third-party payors, which could have a material impact on our future business, financial condition and operations.

 

Our success will depend upon our regenerative medical products being accepted in the market. The degree of market acceptance of our tests by physicians, healthcare professionals and third-party payers will depend on a number of factors, including:

 

our ability to provide acceptable evidence of clinical utility;
   
successful integration into clinical practice;
   
availability and advantages of alternative tests;
   
effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts and strategies;
   
pricing and positive health economics; and
   
our ability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage or reimbursement.

 

If any tests that we commercialize fail to gain market acceptance, our ability to generate revenue would be impaired, which could have a material impact on our business, financial condition and operations.

  

Additional financing is necessary for the implementation of our growth strategy.

 

We may require additional debt and/or equity financing to pursue our growth strategy. Given our limited operating history and existing losses, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing. Lack of additional funding could force us to curtail substantially our growth plans or cease of operations. Furthermore, the issuance by us of any additional securities pursuant to any future fundraising activities undertaken by us would dilute the ownership of existing shareholders and may reduce the price of our common stock.  Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility. Our failure to successfully obtain additional future funding may jeopardize our ability to continue our business and operations.

 

If we are unable to adequately acquire and protect or enforce our intellectual property, our competitive position could be impaired.

 

Our commercial success depends in part on our ability to obtain patents or rights to patents and maintain their validity, protect our trade secrets and effectively enforce our proprietary rights or patents against infringers. Although we have filed, or have licenses to, patent applications in respect of the technology underlying our regenerative medicine products, there are no guarantees that such patent applications will result in issued patents, that any patents that might be issued will protect our technology or that we will develop other patentable tests in the future. Moreover, there can be no assurance that a patent granted to us or in respect of which we hold a license will make the related test more competitive, that third parties will not contest the protection granted by the patent, or that the patents of third parties will not be detrimental to our commercial activities. Our failure or inability to protect our trade secrets and proprietary know-how could impair our competitive position. There is no guarantee that other companies will not independently develop tests similar to our regenerative products or any future tests that we develop, that they will not imitate our tests or that our competitors will not produce tests designed to circumvent our proprietary rights.

 

Potential claims alleging infringement of third party’s intellectual property by us could harm our ability to compete and result in significant expense to us and loss of significant rights.

 

From time to time, third parties may assert patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are important to our business. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, cause product shipment delays, disrupt our relationships with our customers or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon our operating results. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us. If a claim against us is successful and we cannot obtain a license to the relevant technology on acceptable terms, license a substitute technology or redesign our products to avoid infringement, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

 

23
 

 

If the FDA imposes device, drug, or biologic regulation on IntelliCells™, we may not be able to obtain the necessary clearance or approval to market IntelliCells™ in a timely manner or at all. Even if we do obtain approval, the cost and delay could materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

The FDA allows HCT/Ps (human cell and tissue products) to proceed to market without prior clearance or approval. We believe IntelliCells™ qualify under this foregoing section and under Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1271.10 (21 C.F.R. § 1271.10), and we have not invoked FDA’s voluntary procedures for seeking a ruling. We cannot assure you that the FDA would agree with our determination. For example, such HCT/Ps must be “minimally manipulated.” We believe that our use of ultrasound cavitation or other physical means, rather than chemical means, to separate non-cellular material and to create IntelliCells™ qualifies as minimal manipulation. However, to our knowledge, the FDA has not publicly addressed the issue of ultrasound cavitation and minimal manipulation, and could disagree. If the FDA were to decide that ultrasound cavitation is more than minimal manipulation, then IntelliCells™ would no longer qualify for these exemptions.

 

The FDA may disagree with the Company that using SVFC for regenerative inductions represents homologous use (same basic function) and otherwise meet the conditions of 21 C.F.R. § 1271, If FDA were to disagree, Intellicells™ would require premarket approval as a drug, medical device, or biological product.

 

If the FDA were to disagree with our determination, or were to prospectively alter the requirements for HCT/P eligibility, the agency could require us to stop marketing IntelliCells™ until we met burdensome and lengthy medical device, drug, or biologic premarket clearance or approval requirements, which could include a requirement to gather extensive supporting clinical data. We do not know if clearance or approval of our IntelliCells™ could be obtained in a timely fashion, or at all. Even if such clearance or approval could be obtained, IntelliCells™ would be subject to more stringent level of post-market regulation as well. If any of these events were to occur, our financial condition and results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

 

We operate in a highly-regulated environment and may be unable to comply with applicable federal regulations, registrations and approvals. Failure to comply with applicable licensure, registration, and approval standards may result in a loss of licensure, registration, and approval or other government enforcement actions.

 

The FDA imposes substantial regulatory requirements upon facilities that are engaged in the recovery, processing, storage, labeling, packaging, or distribution of HCT/Ps.

 

Our processing centers will likely be required to comply with the HCT/P regulations and applicable state tissue bank regulation. Although we do not currently intend to utilize third parties, if any third parties were retained by us to engage in the manufacture of an HCT/P on our behalf, such third parties must also comply with the HCT/P regulations. If we or our third-party contractors fail to register, update registration information, or comply with any HCT/P regulation, we could be subject to civil and criminal fines and penalties and/or injunction, which could adversely affect our business. Furthermore, adverse events in the field of stem cell therapy may result in greater governmental regulation, which could create increased expenses, potential delays, or otherwise affect our business.

  

State and local governments impose additional licensing and other requirements upon clinical laboratories and facilities that store, handle, and process human tissue. We may not be able to obtain the necessary licensure required to conduct business in any state in a timely manner, or at all, and the cost of compliance could adversely affect our ability to operate our business profitably.

 

In the United States, we are obligated to comply with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and state privacy and security standards. As HIPAA is amended and changed, we will incur additional compliance burdens. We may be required to spend substantial time and money to ensure compliance with ever-changing federal and state standards as electronic and other means of transmitting protected health information evolve. Failure to comply with HIPAA standards may subject us to civil money penalties or criminal prosecution. To the extent that our business requires compliance with HIPAA, we intend to fully comply with all requirements.

 

24
 

 

Whether or not the Intellicells™ are regulated as HCT/P products under the PHS Act or require some sort of FDA approval, the product will be subject to cGMP requirements.  These requirements are the minimum standards for facilities and procedures necessary to ensure that medical products, including HCT/P products are manufactured under proper conditions. We have taken steps to make sure that our facilities are compliant with cGMP requirements.  If FDA disagrees with us on cGMP compliance, the Agency may take regulatory action against us.

 

There are risks associated with our strategy to remotely operate cGTP lab in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals.

 

We have no experience in operating cGTP lab remotely in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals,.  There are numerous risks associated with this strategy that include, but are not limited to: (i) the costs of setting up and operating such cGTP labs, (ii) there are substantial risks associated with operating complex businesses remotely, especially one where controlling the cell therapy lab and operations is so critical, (iii) there are risks associated with controlling growth, (iv) risks exist associated with adverse events in one facility affecting the business as a whole, (v) there are general risks associated with growth.

 

We face competition in our markets from a number of large and small companies, some of which have greater financial, research and development, production and other resources than we have.

 

Our services face competition from services which may be used as an alternative or substitute therefore. In addition we compete with several large companies in the healthcare industry. To the extent these companies, or new entrants into the market, offer comparable services at lower prices, our business could be adversely affected. Our competitors can be expected to continue to improve the design and performance of their products and services and to introduce new products and services with competitive performance characteristics. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient resources to maintain our current competitive position. See “Description of Business - Competition.”

    

The current U.S. and global economic conditions could materially adversely affect our results of operations and business condition.

 

Our operations and performance depend significantly on economic conditions. Over the past three years, the U. S. economy has experienced a prolonged economic downturn. While economic conditions have recently improved, there is continued uncertainty regarding the timing or strength of any economic recovery. If the current economic situation remains weak or deteriorates further, our business could be negatively impacted by reduced demand for our services or third-party disruptions resulting from higher levels of unemployment, government budget deficits and other adverse economic conditions. Any of these risks, among other economic factors, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results, and the risks could become more pronounced if the problems in the U.S. and global economies become worse.

 

We are heavily dependent on our senior management, and a loss of a member of our senior management team or our failure to attract, assimilate and retain other highly qualified personnel in the future, could harm our business.

 

If we lose members of our senior management, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis, and our business could be adversely affected. Our existing operations and continued future development depend to a significant extent upon the performance and active participation of certain key individuals, including Steven Victor, our Chief Executive Officer, If we were to lose Mr. Victor, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

 

In addition, to execute our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these employees is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We could also experience difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have. If we fail to attract new personnel, or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.

 

25
 

 

Steven Victor, our chief executive officer, is a practicing cosmetic dermatologist and his duties as a doctor may limit the time he may be able to spend developing our products.

 

Dr. Steven Victor, our chief executive officer, is a practicing cosmetic dermatologist in New York City.  Currently, Dr. Victor does not believe his duties as a practicing physician will limit his ability to function as our sole officer or develop our products.  However, to the extent Dr. Victor’s duties as a practicing physician requires him to limit his commitment to us, it could impact our ability develop our products which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

 

Our current officer, directors and principal shareholders may have substantial influence over the election of the Board of Directors and matters submitted to a stockholder vote.

 

Our directors, executive officers and principal (10%) stockholders and their affiliates beneficially own approximately 8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, our executive officers, directors, principal stockholders and certain of their affiliates may have substantial influence on the ability to control the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of issues submitted to our stockholders.

 

Our business may be affected by factors outside of our control.

 

Our ability to increase sales, and to profitably distribute and sell our products and services, is subject to a number of risks, including changes in our business relationships with our principal distributors, competitive risks such as the entrance of additional competitors into our markets, pricing and technological competition, risks associated with the development and marketing of new products and services in order to remain competitive and risks associated with changing economic conditions and government regulation.

 

Holders of some of our promissory notes which are now in default could, if they were to successfully enforce those notes in a law suit, levy on our assets and have them sold to satisfy our obligations on the notes.

 

Part of our debt held by promissory note holders has been assumed by Redwood Management, LLC. However, our bridge notes and our convertible promissory notes held by some of our promissory note holders are in default, and we are not in a position to repay them. We intend to use the proceeds of a future offering to pay off such notes. Holders of those notes could if they choose to sue on those notes, and if they were successful in their lawsuits they could levy on our assets and have those assets sold to satisfy the amounts we owe them.

 

Risks Related to our Common Stock

 

There has not been an active public market for our common stock so the price of our common stock could be volatile and could decline following this offering at a time when you want to sell your holdings.

 

Our common stock is traded on the OTCQB under the symbol SVFC. Our common stock is not actively traded and the price of our common stock may be volatile.  Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:

 

the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has  re-inspected our facility in early June and issued a 483 Report and the Company has responded in a timely manner.   They may determine that we do not currently meet the guidelines to operate a cell therapy business or that our cell therapy treatments should be treated as a drug;
   
the failure of any of our clinical studies;
   
market conditions or trends related to the biotechnology, cell therapy, stem cell, pharmaceutical, medical device, diagnostics and medical services industries, or the market in general;
   
announcements of technological innovations, new commercial products, or other material events by our competitors or us;
   
disputes or other developments concerning our proprietary rights;
   
changes in, or failure to meet, securities analysts’ or investors’ expectations of our financial and developmental performance;

 

26
 

 

additions or departures of key personnel;
   
loss of any strategic relationship;
   
discussions of our business, products, financial performance, prospects, or stock price by the financial and scientific press and online investor communities such as chat rooms;
   
industry developments, including, without limitation, changes in healthcare policies or practices or third-party reimbursement policies;
   
public concern as to, and legislative action with respect to, testing or other research areas of cell therapy, stem cells, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies, the pricing and availability of prescription drugs or the safety of drugs or drug-like products;
   
regulatory developments in the United States or foreign countries; and
   
economic, political and other external factors.

 

In addition, the market price for securities of life science companies, including cell therapy, stem cell, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies historically has been volatile, and the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may cause the market price of our common stock to decline substantially.

 

Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.

 

Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

 

Our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC, which may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell our common stock.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
   
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
   

 

make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
   
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

27
 

 

The regulations applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our common stock and could limit an investor’s ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market.

  

As an issuer of “penny stock,” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward-looking statements does not apply to us.

 

Although federal securities laws provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any legal action based upon a claim that the material provided by us contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading. Such an action could hurt our financial condition.

 

Because certain of our stockholders control a significant number of shares of our common stock, they may have effective control over actions requiring stockholder approval.

 

Our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders, and their respective affiliates, beneficially own approximately 15.8% of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, would have the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. In addition, these stockholders, acting together, would have the ability to control the management and affairs of our company. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership might harm the market price of our common stock by:

 

delaying, deferring or preventing a change in corporate control;
   
impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us; or
   
discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

 

Because the holders of our certain of our warrants have cashless exercise rights, we may not receive proceeds from the exercise of the outstanding warrants if the underlying shares are not registered.

 

The holders of certain of our warrants, including the warrants issued in our February 2012 private placement, have cashless exercise rights, which provide them with the ability to receive common stock with a value equal to the appreciation in the stock price over the exercise price of the warrants being exercised. This right is not exercisable if the underlying shares are subject to an effective registration statement. In connection with this offering, we are registering such shares of common stock for resale in order to satisfy such obligation. However, in the event the warrants are not subject to a current and effective registration statement on or after the one year anniversary of the date of issuance, the cashless exercise provision of the warrants will be available to those holders of our warrants and, as a result, we will not receive proceeds from those warrants that are exercised on a cashless basis.

 

Future sales of our common stock could cause our stock price to fall.

 

Finance transactions resulting in a large amount of newly issued shares that become readily tradable, or other events that cause current stockholders to sell shares, could place downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. In addition, the lack of a robust resale market may require a stockholder who desires to sell a large number of shares of common stock to sell the shares in increments over time to mitigate any adverse impact of the sales on the market price of our stock.

 

28
 

 

If our stockholders sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell for various reasons, including but not limited to the ending of restriction on resale, the market price of our common stock could fall. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. We may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert management’s attention and harm our business.

 

We cannot predict if future issuances or sales of our common stock, or the availability of our common stock for issuance or sale, will harm the market price of our common stock or our ability to raise capital.

 

Any adjustment in the conversion price of our preferred stock or the exercise price of our warrants could have a depressive effect on our stock price and the market for our stock.

 

If we are required to adjust the preferred stock conversion price or the warrant exercise price pursuant to any of the adjustment provisions of the agreements, the adjustment or the perception that an adjustment may be required, may have a depressive effect on both our stock price and the market for our common stock.

 

Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.

 

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, regardless of whether we are required to maintain such controls, could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price. Although we are not aware of anything that would impact our ability to maintain effective internal controls, we have not obtained an independent audit of our internal controls and, as a result, we are not aware of any deficiencies which would result from such an audit. Further, at such time as we are required to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may incur significant expenses in having our internal controls audited and in implementing any changes which are required.

 

We have not paid dividends on our common stock in the past and do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

No cash dividends have been paid on our common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations and growth. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the near future. Payment of dividends would depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

 

The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members.

 

We recently became a public company and subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Prior to June 2011, we had not operated as a public company and the requirements of these rules and regulations will likely increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. For example, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that our management report on, and our independent auditors attest to, the effectiveness of our internal controls structure and procedures for financial reporting. Section 404 compliance may divert internal resources and will take a significant amount of time and effort to complete. We may not be able to successfully complete the procedures and certification and attestation requirements of Section 404 by the time we will be required to do so. If we fail to do so, or if in the future our chief executive officer, chief financial officer or independent registered public accounting firm determines that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as defined under Section 404, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company may suffer, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our common stock. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404, any failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results of operations and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting or financial results and could result in an adverse opinion on internal controls from our independent auditors. We may need to hire a number of additional employees with public accounting and disclosure experience in order to meet our ongoing obligations as a public company, which will increase costs. Our management team and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to new compliance initiatives and to meeting the obligations that are associated with being a public company, which may divert attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, because our management team has limited experience managing a public company, we may not successfully or efficiently manage our transition into a public company.

 

29
 

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

 

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by industry or financial analysts. If no or few analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock would likely decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

 

ITEM 1B.    UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

 

Not Applicable.

 

ITEM 2.    PROPERTIES.

 

Our corporate offices and laboratory are located at 460 Park Avenue, 17th Floor, New York, New York 10022.  We are currently provided office facilities and related services by a company owned by Dr. Steven Victor, our chief executive officer.

 

Such company entered into a 13 year lease for the office space located at 460 Park Avenue for which we have unconditionally guaranteed any and all obligations owed under the lease to the landlord. In connection with the execution of the lease, we established a restricted cash account in the amount of approximately $520,000 to be used as a security deposit under the lease.

 

As of the date hereof, we have been unsuccessful with a request to the landlord to have the lease assigned to us so that we become the primary tenant under the terms of the lease.

 

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

From time to time we may be a defendant or plaintiff in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. Except as described below, we know of no material, active, pending or threatened proceeding against us or our subsidiaries, nor are we, or any subsidiary, involved as a plaintiff or defendant in any material proceeding or pending litigation.

On March 17, 2014, Dean E. Miller, as representative shareholder, on behalf of the nominal defendant Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., filed a shareholder’s derivative action against Steven Victor, MD, in his capacity as Chairman - CEO and individually, Anna Rhodes as former Executive Vice President and individually, Leonard L. Mazur as interim Chief Operating Officer and individually,  Myron Holubiak as a Director and individually, Michael Hershman, as Chairman of the Board of Directors and individually,  Stuart Goldfarb as a former Director and individually, Victor Dermatology & Rejuvenation, P.C., Victor Cosmeceuticals, Inc., Lasersculpt, Inc., and the Doe Entities 1-5, as defendants, and Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., as nominal-defendant. The complaint, which was filed on the aforementioned date with the United States District Court Southern District of New York, alleges that the Company has failed to comply with US Food and Drug Administration and United States Patent and Trade Office regulations. The allegations in the complaint include, but are not limited to, allegations involving fraud, negligence, false reporting, and mismanagement of laboratory facilities. Pursuant to the complaint, the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000.00. Furthermore, the complaint as filed lists the following counts: 1. Against the individual defendants for breach of their fiduciary duties in connection with their management of the Company; 2. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty in connection with disseminating false information; 3. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty for failing to design and implement adequate internal controls; 4. Request for injunctive relief; 5. Imposition of constructive trust/accounting; and 6. Appointment of referee injunctive relief. The Company believes that such allegations and claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend such allegations and claims. Because the inquiry is in its initial stages, the Company is not currently able to predict the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, or the amount of any possible loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome. Consequently, no material provision or liability has been recorded for such allegations and claims as of December 31, 2013. However, management is confident in its defenses to such allegations and claims.

 

On March 11, 2014, Steven A. Victor (“Dr. Victor”), Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Intellicell Biosciences Inc., a New York corporation, and Regen Medical P.C., a New York corporation filed a complaint against Jonathan Schwartz (“Schwarz”), Joseph P. Salvani (“Salvani”) and Douglas R. Dollinger (“Dollinger”), in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. Schwartz and Salvani, both shareholders of the Company, are represented by Dollinger in his capacity as legal counsel. Pursuant to the complaint, the plaintiffs’ first cause of action alleges that the defendants conspired together and acted in concert, to defame Dr. Victor and the Company in an effort to take control of the Company and to reap large profits by dumping their shares thereafter. Furthermore, the plaintiffs’ second cause of action alleges that Salvani made false statements to a potential investor, resulting in damages amounting to $250,000.00. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, together with punitive damages and interest in connection with the first cause of action, and compensatory damages in the amount of $250,000.00, together with punitive damages and interest, in connection with the second cause of action.

 

Ironridge Litigation

 

On August 8, 2013, a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed along with a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (the “Motion”) before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) under the caption Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index No. 652800/13. The Motion sought to restrain the sale of the Company’s assets.

 

As previously reported, on July 15, 2013, while the Company was finalizing an amendment and waiver to that certain Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) issued by the Company in favor of TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) on June 7, 2012 in the principal amount of $500,000, the Company was advised that Ironridge Global IV, LTD (“Ironridge”), led by Mr. John C. Kirkland, Esq., purportedly purchased the Note from TCA.  The Complaint and Motion alleged that Ironridge and TCA each served the Company with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of the same assets.

 

Given that Ironridge and TCA asserted that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion sought to temporarily restrain both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court, New York County, issued a written Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary Restraining Order”).

 

On August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing on the Motion was held, at which time the Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of $535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant to that certain Equity Facility Agreement.  Since TCA admitted in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court that, with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's obligations under the transaction documents have now been satisfied in full.

 

31
 

 

In addition, the Court found Ironridge’s jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New York and directed all parties to file submissions with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or are not owed under those certain transaction documents.   Judge Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place indefinitely until further order of the Court and that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make, post or distribute any further advertisements, internet postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto.  Finally, Judge Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was being held in escrow be immediately released.

 

A three day hearing was conducted by Judge Gammerman and he ruled that Intellicell does not owe Ironridge or TCA any further payments.  The Company is awaiting a final honor by Judge Oing.

 

Hanover Holdings Litigation

 

On May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”), entered an order (the “Order”) approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of an exchange pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in accordance with a stipulation of settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”) between the Company and Hanover Holdings I, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Hanover”), in the matter entitled Hanover Holdings I, LLC v. Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., Case No. 651709/2013 (the “Action”). Hanover commenced the Action against the Company on May 10, 2013 to recover an aggregate of $706,765.38 of past-due accounts payable of the Company, plus fees and costs (the “Claim”). The Order provides for the full and final settlement of the Claim and the Action. The Settlement Agreement became effective and binding upon the Company and Hanover upon execution of the Order by the Court on May 21, 2013.

 

As previously disclosed, on May 23, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover 8,500,000 shares (the “Initial Settlement Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”).

 

The Settlement Agreement provides that the Initial Settlement Shares will be subject to adjustment on the trading day immediately following the Calculation Period (as defined below) to reflect the intention of the parties that the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Hanover pursuant to the Settlement Agreement be based upon a specified discount to the trading volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the Common Stock for a specified period of time subsequent to the Court’s entry of the Order. Specifically, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Hanover pursuant to the Settlement Agreement shall be equal to the sum of: (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) $706,765.38 by (B) 55% of the average of the lowest 10 VWAPs of the Common Stock over the 80-consecutive trading day period immediately following the date of issuance of the Initial Settlement Shares (or such shorter trading-day period as may be determined by Hanover in its sole discretion by delivery of written notice to the Company) (the “Calculation Period”); (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the total dollar amount of legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Action, which shall not exceed $57,500 (less $5,000 heretofore paid by the Company) by (B) the VWAP of the Common Stock over the Calculation Period; and (iii) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) agent fees of $35,338.27 by (B) the VWAP of the Common Stock over the Calculation Period, rounded up to the nearest whole share (the “VWAP Shares”). As a result, the Company ultimately may be required to issue to Hanover substantially more shares of Common Stock than the number of Initial Settlement Shares issued (subject to the limitations described below). The Settlement Agreement further provides that if, at any time and from time to time during the Calculation Period, Hanover reasonably believes that the total number of Settlement Shares previously issued to Hanover shall be less than the total number of VWAP Shares to be issued to Hanover or its designee in connection with the Settlement Agreement, Hanover may, in its sole discretion, deliver one or more written notices to the Company, at any time and from time to time during the Calculation Period, requesting that a specified number of additional shares of Common Stock promptly be issued and delivered to Hanover or its designee (subject to the limitations described below), and the Company will upon such request reserve and issue the number of additional shares of Common Stock requested to be so issued and delivered in the notice (all of such additional shares of Common Stock, “Additional Settlement Shares”). At the end of the Calculation Period, (i) if the number of VWAP Shares exceeds the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares issued, then the Company will issue to Hanover or its designee additional shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between the number of VWAP Shares and the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares, and (ii) if the number of VWAP Shares is less than the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares issued, then Hanover or its designee will return to the Company for cancellation that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between the number of VWAP Shares and the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares. Hanover may sell the shares of Common Stock issued to it or its designee in connection with the Settlement Agreement at any time without restriction, even during the Calculation Period.

 

32
 

 

The Settlement Agreement provides that in no event shall the number of shares of Common Stock issued to Hanover or its designee in connection with the Settlement Agreement, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Hanover and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder), result in the beneficial ownership by Hanover and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) at any time of more than 9.99% of the Common Stock.

 

As previously disclosed, between June 17, 2013 and December 16, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover an aggregate of 87,266,171 Additional Settlement Shares pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order.

 

Since the issuance of the Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares described above, Hanover demonstrated to the Company’s satisfaction that it was entitled to receive another 6,009,817 Additional Settlement Shares, based on the adjustment formula described above, and that the issuance of such Additional Settlement Shares to Hanover would not result in Hanover exceeding the beneficial ownership limitation set forth above. Accordingly, on December 27, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover another 6,009,817 Additional Settlement Shares pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order.

 

The issuance of Common Stock to Hanover pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof, as an issuance of securities in exchange for bona fide outstanding claims, where the terms and conditions of such issuance are approved by a court after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all persons to whom it is proposed to issue securities in such exchange shall have the right to appear.

 

Corcon Litigation

 

On February 27, 2013, JKT Construction Inc. d/b/a/ Corcon (“Corcon”) filed a complaint (the “Corcon Complaint”) against, among other parties, the Company and Dr. Victor, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Case No. 151778/2013, alleging, among other things, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit and foreclosure on a mechanic’s lien related to work performed in the build out of the Company’s office’s located at 460 Park Avenue, 17th Floor, new York, New York 10022 (the “Property”).   Corcon is seeking, among other things, that their claims be determined to be a valid lien against the Property and that they be able to foreclose on and sell the Property, a judgment for any deficiency against, among other parties, the Company and Dr. Victor and an amount of compensatory damages not less than $442,334.03, plus interest, costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses.  

 

On May 1, 2013, he entered into an agreement (the “Corcon Agreement”) with Corcon (“Corcon”) to settle the litigation matter between the Company and Corcon (the “Corcon Litigation”) relating to that certain debt owed Corcon in the aggregate amount of $547,000 (the “Debt”). For additional information regarding the Corcon Litigation subject to the Corcon Agreement see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 27, 2013.  Under the terms of the Corcon Agreement, Corcon has agreed to dismiss the Corcon Litigation in exchange for receiving a payment of $475,000 (the “Purchase Price”) from Hanover Holdings I, LLC (“Hanover”) under the terms of that certain a receivable purchase agreement (the “Corcon Receivable Purchase Agreement”).  As condition to the Corcon Agreement, Hanover and the Company entered into an agreement for Hanover to purchase various debt obligations of, or claims against the Company and to file a civil action under Section 3(a)(10) (the “3(a)(10)  Transaction”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Further, as a material inducement to enter into the Corcon Agreement, the Company agreed to escrow 19,000,000 shares of its common stock to be issued to Corcon in the event the 3(a)(10) Transaction was not approved and Purchase Price was not received.  On May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, entered an order approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the 3(a)(10) Transaction as previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed  with the Commission on May 24, 2013.

 

33
 

 

The Corcon Litigation was dismissed on May 10, 2013. And the 19,000,000 shares have been returned to the Company’s treasury.

 

Bluming Litigation

 

On February 14, 2013, the Company was served with notice that on February 13, 2013, Menachem M. Bluming (“Bluming”) filed a complaint (the “Bluming Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Case No. 13-cv-0978-CM, alleging, among other things, breach of contract, unjust enrichment and debt owed against the Company, in connection with, that certain promissory note, dated June 3, 2011, in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000.   Bluming is seeking, among other things, an amount not less than $680,000, representing the principal amount, interest, attorneys’ fees and expenses.   The Company is currently working on making arrangements to honor its obligations under these notes, however, there can be no assurance that any such arrangements will ever materialize or be permissible or sufficient to cover any or all of the obligations under these notes.

 

On May 8, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Mendel Bluming (“Bluming”) to settle the previously disclosed litigation matter between the Company and Bluming (the “Bluming Litigation”) relating to that certain promissory note, dated June 3, 2011, in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (the “Note”).  Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Bluming has agreed to dismiss the Bluming Litigation and defer the Company’s obligations under the Note for a period of one year from the Effective Date (the “Deferral”), in exchange for receiving a payment of $35,000 from Hanover under the terms of that certain receivable purchase agreement for attorney’s fees owed by the Company to Bluming under the Note.  As condition to the Settlement Agreement, Hanover and the Company entered into an agreement for Hanover to purchase various debt obligations of, or claims against the Company and to file a civil action under Section 3(a)(10) Transaction.  On May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, entered an order approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the 3(a)(10) Transaction.  In further consideration for the Deferral, the Company has agreed to give Bluming (i) an aggregate of 32,479 shares of the Company’s common stock; (ii) piggy back registration rights on all shares issued to Bluming and on the shares underlying that certain warrant certificate for 1,108,860 shares of the Company’s common stock; and (iii) an option to purchase 233,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at price of $0.15 per share, vesting immediately and expiring on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.

 

The Bluming Litigation was dismissed on May 24, 2013.

We intend to engage in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization of our proprietary process that will involve entering into technology licensing agreements and related service agreements with physicians, physician practice groups, hospitals and ambulatory service centers located in the United States. We will also be seeking to enter into technology licensing agreements that cover a particular international territory or country. In addition, we will also be seeking to establish “Centers of Excellence” in conjunction with physicians under an arrangement whereby we are appointed the exclusive managing agent for the professional corporation in exchange for the grant of a license to the professional corporation to utilize our proprietary process.  Depending upon the arrangement involved, we will be collecting some combination of fees from licensing, processing, service, and management, as well as up-front territorial licensing fees.

The value of the warrants and non-employee stock options were determined using the Black Scholes method, the details of which are more fully explained within the notes to the financial statements.

 

Changes in Fair Value of Derivative Liability

 

The Company has issued various instruments (as detailed below) which are accounted for as derivative liabilities and are valued at fair value at the date of issuance and at each balance sheet date. The change in value of these instruments is recorded as a charge (or as income). During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded an expense in the amount of $2 ,944,351 and income in the amount of $13,804,271, respectively, relating to the change in value of all its derivative liabilities.

 

The instruments with derivative properties are as follows:

 

Convertible Debt - Derivative Liabilities

 

In May 2011, IntelliCell completed a convertible debt offering aggregating $1,385,000. The units offered consist of a $50,000 subordinated convertible debenture payable one year from the date of issue with interest at a rate of 6% and convertible, at the option of the holder, into the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.72 per share. Each unit also included a detachable five (5) year warrant to purchase 57,143 shares of IntelliCell’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.72 per share.  The proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt securities with detachable warrants were allocated between the warrants and the debt security. The discount is being amortized over the life of the debt. As of December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an original issue discount of $288,564 related to the value of the warrants that will be amortized as interest expense over the initial one year term of the convertible debentures. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has recognized $216,422 of interest expense as a result of such amortization.  

 

The Company accounted for the conversion features underlying the convertible debentures an issued in accordance with GAAP, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the debentures being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the value of the derivate conversion features of these debentures issued during the year ended December 31, 2011 at the relevant commitment dates to be $32,209 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. The change in fair value of the liability for the conversion feature resulted in a reduction to income of $583,837 and a reduction to income of $3,893,821 for year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which is included in the accompanying financial statements. The fair value of the derivative conversion features was determined to be $1,051 and $587,520 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

The Company accounted for the detachable warrants included with the convertible debentures as liabilities in accordance with GAAP, as the warrants are subject to anti-dilution protection and could result in them being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the value of the derivate feature of the warrants issued during year ended December 31, 2011 at the relevant commitment dates to be $332,401 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. The change in fair value of the liability for the warrants resulted in a reduction to income of $382,296 and a charge to income of $9,921,400, respectively for year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which is included in the accompanying financial statements. The fair value of the derivative conversion features was determined to be $6,254 and $388,550 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

As discussed, as a result of the Company’s Merger, and the effect of recapitalization, the exercise price of the convertible debentures and warrants was decreased from $1.72 to $.88. The subordinated convertible debentures are convertible into an aggregate of 1,561,443 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,071,542 shares of common stock.

Common Stock Offering - Derivative Liabilities

 

In February 2012, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company sold (i) an aggregate of 2,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) class A warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class A Warrants”), and (iii) class B warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class B Warrants” and together with the Class A Warrants, the “Warrants”), for aggregate gross cash proceeds of $2,627,649, which consisted of $2,100,000 of cash and the exchange and cancelation of a promissory note (bearing principal and interest totaling $527,549) and a warrant ("Exchange Agreement").

 

The Class A Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $2.00, subject to adjustment. The Class B Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $3.75, subject to adjustment. The exercise price of the Warrants were subject to anti-dilution protection if shares or share-indexed financing instruments were sold at less than the stated conversion prices.

 

Therefore, the associated conversion feature requires liability classification under GAAP which is carried at their fair value to be reevaluated each reporting period. We estimate their fair value as a common stock equivalent, enhanced by the forward elements (coupon, puts, and calls), because that technique embodies all of the assumptions (including credit risk, interest risk, stock price volatility and conversion behavior estimates) that are necessary to determine the fair value of this type of financial instrument.

 

We determined the value of the derivative conversion features of these debentures issued at the relevant commitment dates to be $19,036,312 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model.

 

Between September 5, 2012 and October 11, 2012, the February 2012 investors (including the investor that exchanged and cancelled his outstanding promissory note) agreed to certain amendments to their securities purchase agreement and exchange their respective Warrants for (i) an aggregate of 6,100,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock  (ii) a new series A warrant to purchase an aggregate of 6,100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of seventy-five cents ($0.75) per share and (iii) a new series B warrant to purchase an aggregate of 6,100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of seventy-five cents ($0.75) per share.

 

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had 100,000 Class A and 100,000 Class B warrants outstanding, these warrants were not exchanged and retained their anti-dilutive properties.  The value of the derivative liability associated with the conversion feature of these warrants were $482 and $10,950 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 

 

Loss before income tax and Net Loss

 

Loss before income tax for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $ 15,868,039 and $4,151,891, respectively, which includes a charge for the non-cash change in fair value of derivative liabilities and other expense of $2, 944,351 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and a reduction of charges for the non-cash change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $13,804,271 for the year end December 31, 2012. Furthermore, loss before income tax for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 included non-cash charges of $4,300,899 and $0 for financing costs for convertible debt issuances, non-cash expense for Employee Stock Compensation of $1,386,765 and $2,333,922, non-cash expense for Non-Employee Stock Based Compensation of $0 and $8,298,732, and stock based financing costs of $305,112 and $3,041,660, respectively, as discussed above.  As we are just beginning to implement our business strategy we anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the next several calendar quarters until such time as we have been able to establish a sufficient number of licensees generating licensing, processing, service, and management fees to us, as well as up-front territorial licensing fees, sufficient to cover our operating costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had a working capital deficit as of December 31, 2013 of $ 8,527,193 , compared to a working capital deficit at December 31, 2012 of $6,687,734.

 

Our cash and cash equivalents as December 31, 2013 was $0, compared to cash balances at December 31, 2012 of $10,159. We are in the early stages of the implementation of our business strategy and anticipate we will require additional cash to fund our operations for the next twelve months inclusive of costs associated with attracting, training and acquiring laboratory equipment for licensees, costs associated with the conducting of clinical research needed to establish and protect the therapeutic benefits of our technologies, costs associated with the development and marketing and promotional and educational materials relative to our services and costs associated with building out the infrastructure necessary to manage and control our business. In the near term, we plan to utilize our existing limited cash balances and proceeds from licensing, processing, service, and management fees to us, as well as up-front territorial licensing fees, and additional debt and equity based financings to maintain our operations.

 

Based on our current cash and cash equivalents levels and expected cash flow from operations, we believe our current cash position is not sufficient to fund our cash requirements during the next twelve months, including operations and capital expenditures. We intend to license our proprietary technology and services or obtain equity and/or debt financing to support our current and proposed operations and capital expenditures. We cannot assure that continued funding will be available. There can be no assurance, however, that any such opportunities may arise, or that any such acquisitions may be consummated. Additional financing may not be available on satisfactory terms when required. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution.  We currently have no firm commitments for any additional capital.  There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, operating activities were impacted by increases in our accounts payable of $1,608,004, and $1,775,489 in increases in loss on conversion of accounts payable to common stock.

TCA Default Notice

 

On August 8, 2013, a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed along with a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (the “Motion”) before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) under the caption Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index No. 652800/13. The Motion sought to restrain the sale of the Company’s assets.

 

As previously reported, on July 15, 2013, while the Company was finalizing an amendment and waiver to that certain Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) issued by the Company in favor of TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) on June 7, 2012 in the principal amount of $500,000, the Company was advised that Ironridge Global IV, LTD (“Ironridge”), led by Mr. John C. Kirkland, Esq., purportedly purchased the Note from TCA.  The Complaint and Motion alleged that Ironridge and TCA each served the Company with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of the same assets.

 

Given that Ironridge and TCA asserted that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion sought to temporarily restrain both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court, New York County, issued a written Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary Restraining Order”).

 

On August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing on the Motion was held, at which time the Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of $535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant to that certain Equity Facility Agreement.  Since TCA admitted in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court that, with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's obligations under the transaction documents have now been satisfied in full.

 

In addition, the Court found Ironridge’s jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New York and directed all parties to file submissions with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or are not owed under those certain transaction documents.   Judge Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place indefinitely until further order of the Court and that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make, post or distribute any further advertisements, internet postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto.  Finally, Judge Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was being held in escrow be immediately released.

The full text of our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, begins on page F-1 of this amended annual report on Form 10-K /A .

 

ITEM 9.    CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

 

We do not have any changes in or disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.

 

ITEM 9A.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

On or about August 29, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Company’s management and after discussions with the Company’s current and former independent registered public accounting firms, concluded that the quarterly financial statements filed on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and the annual financial statements filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as previously issued should no longer be relied upon and will be restated.

 

This amended annual report on Form 10-K/A reflects certain corrections made in connection with the Company’s accounting for the application of fair value assessment for transactions involving derivative obligations related to the issuance of convertible debt instruments. The transactions include (1) derivative valuation at inception of the debt instrument, (2) upon conversion of the instrument to common stock, (3) upon assignment of the debt instrument and (4) upon valuation of the derivative at December 31, 2013. The Company also detected errors in the recording of debt discounts, upon issuance of debt instruments. These incorrectly recorded debt discounts also affected amortization expense for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

 

This restatement has impacted the Company’s CEO and accounting professionals original conclusions regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting by further demonstrating the need for the Company to segregate duties and develop a stronger internal control environment. The Company is planning to further segregate duties related to internal controls over financial reporting as it increases its number of employees. The Company plans to hire additional employees in 2015 to change its disclosure controls and procedures and prevent future misstatements of a similar nature.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, because of our limited resources and limited number of employees, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2013.

 

44
 

 

Management has identified control deficiencies regarding the lack of segregation of duties and the need for a stronger internal control environment. Management believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of our accounting staff.  The small size of our accounting staff may prevent adequate controls in the future, such as segregation of duties, due to the cost/benefit of such remediation.  

 

To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of external legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances that would result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 included in this amended annual report on Form 10-K /A were fairly stated in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that despite our material weaknesses, our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, which consists of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in  Internal Control – Integrated Framework  issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), as supplemented by the COSO publication  Internal Control over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies . Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013 for the deficiencies set forth above.

 

This amended annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to such attestation pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management’s report in this amended annual report.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting have come to management's attention during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Stockholder and Board of Directors of

IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary:

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statement of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary, which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the years then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary has been restated as of December 31, 2013 and for the year then ended to reflect to correction of an error during the third and fourth quarters of 2013 in the Company’s accounting for the fair value assessment of transactions involving derivative obligations related to the issuance of convertible debt instruments.

IntelliCell BioSciences Inc. and Subsidiary

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Description of Business

 

Formation

 

IntelliCell Biosciences Inc., (“Intellicell”) a New York corporation, was formed under the name Regen Biosciences, Inc. on August 13, 2010 as a pioneering regenerative medicine company to develop and commercialize regenerative medical technologies in large markets with unmet clinical needs.  On February 17, 2011, Regen Biosciences, Inc. changed its name to IntelliCell BioSciences Inc. (“IntelliCell”).  To date, IntelliCell has developed proprietary technologies that allow for the efficient and reproducible separation of stromal vascular fraction (branded “IntelliCell™”) containing adipose stem cells that can be performed in tissue processing centers and in doctors’ offices.

 

In conjunction with the formation of IntelliCell (formerly Regen Biosciences, Inc.), a shareholder contributed, as part of his initial capital contribution, one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding stock of Tech Stem Inc., a New York corporation (“Tech Stem”) originally formed on May 24, 2010.  Tech Stem’s business is the sourcing, sales and distribution of laboratory equipment and supplies utilized in tissue processing related to IntelliCell’s technologies.

 

Reverse Merger

 

On April 27, 2011, IntelliCell and Media Exchange Group, Inc. (“MEG”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger which was amended on June 3, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”).  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, a subsidiary of MEG (“Merger Sub”) merged into IntelliCell.  The Merger Sub ceased to exist as a corporation and IntelliCell continued as the surviving corporate entity.  As a result of the merger, MEG’s former shareholders acquired majority of IntelliCell’s outstanding common stock and all of IntelliCell’s Series B preferred stock.  The recapitalized IntelliCell Biosciences, Inc. is hereafter referred to as “IntelliCell” or the “Company”. As consideration for the Merger, the holders of the an aggregate of 7,975,768 shares of IntelliCell’s common stock exchanged their shares of common stock for an aggregate of 15,476,978 shares of the Company’s common stock and Dr. Steven Victor, the principal shareholder of IntelliCell and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), exchanged an aggregate of 10,575,482 shares of IntelliCell’s common stock for an aggregate of 20,521 shares of the Company’s series B preferred stock. Each share of series B preferred stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the holders of the series B preferred stock are entitled to notice of stockholders’ meetings and to vote as a single class with the holders of the Common Stock on any matter submitted to the stockholders for a vote, and are entitled to the number of votes equal the product of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the series B preferred stock is convertible into on the record date of the vote multiplied by (b) ten (10). The closing of the Merger took place on June 3, 2011 (the “Closing Date”).

 

Prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Company entered into agreements the holders of an aggregate of $1,619,606 of indebtedness to the Company, comprised of accrued compensation in the amount of $1,201,551, promissory notes in the principal amount of $263,707 plus accrued interest of $9,398 less unamortized debt discounts of $83,264 and accrued expenses totaling $228,414 in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 12,123 shares of series C preferred stock.  Each share of series C preferred stock shall be convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Certain holders of the Company’s series C preferred stock have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert the series C preferred stock such that the number of shares of the Company common stock held by each of holder and its affiliates after such conversion shall not exceed 4.99% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Furthermore, prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Company entered into agreements with the holders of an aggregate of $250,000 of accrued compensation, pursuant to which such persons agreed to forgive all amounts owed to the Company.

2. Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

 

Subsequent to the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company identified errors in accounting for the application of fair value assessment for transactions involving derivative obligations, including derivative valuation at inception, conversion, assignment and period end. The Company also detected errors in the recording of debt discounts. The Company has assessed the impact of the accounting errors on its 3rd quarter 2013 financial statements, year-end December 31, 2013 financial statements and 1st quarter 2014 financial statements, and concluded that, although there was no impact on the Company’s cash position, the effect on its financial statements was material.

 

The impact on the Company’s balance sheets was to restate the balance sheet items of Notes Payables, Convertible Notes Payable Convertible Debentures Payable, additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit for the three periods of September 30, 2013, December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014.

 

In addition, the items restated on the statements of income (loss) were financing costs, gain/(loss) on conversions of debt to equity, and change in fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

The tables below summarize the impact of the restatement from amounts previously reported on the Company’s Form 10-Q for the periods ended September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and Form 10K for the period ended December 31, 2013.

3. Going Concern

 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $ 53,630,673 and a working capital deficit of $ 8,527,193 as of December 31, 2013, respectively. Further losses are anticipated in the continued development of its business, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and a private placement of common stock or other debt or equity securities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain further financing, do so on reasonable terms, or do so on terms that would not substantially dilute our current stockholders’ equity interests in us. If we are unable to raise additional funds on a timely basis, or at all, we probably will not be able to continue as a going concern.

 

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

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

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IntelliCell and those of Tech Stem Inc., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (collectively the “Company”).  All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Management’s Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  Management’s estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the periods they are determined to be necessary.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

GAAP requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. The fair value of financial instruments is made as of a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.

 

GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal, or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

 

F-9
 

 

GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the degree of subjectivity that is necessary to estimate the fair value of a financial instrument. GAAP establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Share Based Expenses

 

GAAP prescribes that accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payment awards to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if:

 

  a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance, or
     
  b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.

 

With respect to stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants GAAP requires that the amount of share-based payment transactions be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable:

 

  a) the goods or services received or
     
  b) the equity instruments issued.

 

The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company licenses independent third parties to use the Company’s technology in order to enable them to establish tissue processing centers in major metropolitan markets, as well as establishing centers it will operate. Each center will utilize the Company’s proprietary technology in conjunction with a suite of laboratory equipment selected by the Company that will enable the lab to process adipose tissue into stromal vascular fraction containing adipose stem cells using the Company’s technology and protocols. In certain centers, the Company will maintain ownership of the laboratory equipment and in other cases the laboratory equipment will be sold to an independent party.  These license fees are payable upon signing of a license agreement and are recognized as revenue ratably over the license.

 

The Company has also entered into agreements with independent sales representative organizations that will market the centers services to physicians in the geographic area. Fees for tissue processing cases from such physicians will be collected by the Company and recognized upon performance of the laboratory analysis.  Sales of equipment by Tech Stem are recognized when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. 

 

Concentrations

 

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. This potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk; however the Company believes the risk is negligible. The Company’s carrying amount of deposits in financial institutions did not exceed federally insured limits December 31, 2013.

 

F-10
 

 

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company has a limited operating history and its prospects are subject to the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development and commercialization, especially those companies in rapidly evolving and technologically advanced industries such as the biotech / medical device field.  The future viability of the Company largely depends on its ability to complete development of new products and processes and maintain and/or receive regulatory approval for those products and processes.  No assurance can be given that the Company’s new processes and products will be successfully developed, regulatory approvals will be maintained or granted, or acceptance of these processes and products by the medical and patient communities will be achieved.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company extends credit to customers without requiring collateral. The Company provides for doubtful accounts based on management’s evaluations of the collectability of accounts receivable. Management’s evaluation is based on the Company’s historical collection experience and a review of past-due amounts. Based on management’s evaluation of collectability, the Company did not require an allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company determines accounts receivable to be delinquent when collection is past due under the agreed upon terms. Accounts receivable are written off when it is determined that amounts are uncollectible.

 

Equipment

 

Equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed for financial reporting purposes utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related asset or, for leasehold improvements, the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life.

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Costs of renewals and betterments are capitalized.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses include supplies, salaries, benefits, and other headcount related costs, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, contract and other outside service and facilities and overhead costs. The Company expenses the costs associated with research and development activities when incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. The liability method requires recognition of future tax benefits, measured by enacted rates, attributable to deductible temporary differences between financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities to the extent that realization of such benefits is “more likely than not.”  The Company’s temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting relate primarily to receivable reserves, depreciation expense, and operating loss carryforwards. This standard also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures.

 

GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed base on technical merits and on the outcome that will likely be sustained under examination.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, increased by potentially dilutive common shares ("dilutive securities") that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities include stock options and warrants granted and convertible debt.  The Company’s loss attributable to common stockholders, along with the dilutive effect of potentially issuable common stock due to outstanding options warrants and convertible securities cause the normal computation of diluted loss per share to be smaller than the basic loss per share; thereby yielding a result that is counterintuitive. Consequently, the diluted loss per share amount presented does not differ from basic loss per share due to this “anti-dilutive” effect.

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

 

5. Property and Equipment

 

The Company’s property and equipment at December 31, 2013 and 2012 consists of the following:

 

   2013   2012 
Lab equipment  $206,089   $203,204 
Leasehold Improvements   2,226,181    1,954,181

Computer Equipment   416,816    416,816 
    3,312,855    3,033,699 
Less accumulated depreciation   642,356    236,654 
Property and Equipment, net  $2,670,499   $2,797,045 

 

Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $405,702 and $221,428, respectively and is included in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s statement of operations.  

 

6. Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities

 

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

 

   2013  2012
Accounts payable  $ 2,020,971    $1,376,790 
Accrued expenses and liabilities   154,040    466,811 
Accrued payroll   434,243    273,667 
Other   —      45,000 
Total  $2,609,254   $2,162,268 

 

 

7. License Fees Payable

 

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company executed various license agreements and collected an aggregate of $ 0 and $ 1,222,500 , respectively , in license fees for six centers which had not yet commenced operations as of December 31, 2013. Consequently, recognition of such revenue had been deferred pending commencement of operations. The Company was unable to perform its obligations in regards to the licensing agreements and, accordingly, the agreements were cancelled. The Company has classified the amounts to be returned to the former licensees as Licensee Fees Payable on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

In 2013, the Company converted three different license fees outstanding into convertible debentures totaling $300,000, bringing the total balance as of December 31, 2013 to $922,500.

8. Notes Payable

 

Consorteum Notes Payable

 

In conjunction with the Merger, the Company assumed notes payable in the principal amount of $2,463,652 plus accrued interest of $369,898.

 

Following completion of the Merger, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Consorteum Purchase Agreement”) with Consorteum Holdings, Inc. (“Consorteum”), an unrelated company, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, transfer and assign to Consorteum all of the Company’s rights, title and interests to, and agreements relating to, its digital trading card business and platform in exchange for Consorteum assuming an aggregate principal amount of $1,864,152 of indebtedness of the Company (the “Consorteum Notes”). Such rights include, but are not limited to, the Company’s name, phone number and listing, reputation, relationships and other intangible assets (including its rights to any intellectual property or proprietary technology), as well as the company’s rights under certain licensing agreements (“Digital Trading Assets”).

 

Also on June 6, 2011, the Company and Consorteum entered into an amendment agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) to the Consorteum Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, that the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are subject to (i) the approval of the Board of Directors of each of the parties, and (ii) the completion of the assignment of the Assumed Liabilities (including receipt of all the necessary consents of the holders of all outstanding indebtedness of the Buyer).

 

On June 30, 2011, the Company and Consorteum agreed to waive the requirement that the conditions precedent set forth in the Consorteum Purchase Agreement as amended be satisfied on or before closing and each party agreed that as of the date of the Consorteum Purchase Agreement, Consorteum would assume an aggregate of $1,477,052 of principal indebtedness plus accrued interest from the Company totaling $250,695 less unamortized note discounts of $9,890. Upon completion of the requirements of the Consorteum Purchase Agreement and the Amendment Agreement, the note holders who consented to the assumption of their obligations by Consorteum received shares of Consorteum common stock in satisfaction of their notes. Included in the notes assumed by Consorteum were notes payable to former officers and directors of the Company prior to the Merger totaling $450,000 in principal plus accrued interest of $74,935. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consorteum agreed to provide the Company a guarantee, whereby Consorteum agrees to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to the Company the prompt and complete payment, as and when due and payable (whether at stated maturity or by required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), of any remaining notes payable for which the Company had not received the necessary consent as of the date of the waiver. As a result of the foregoing, the transactions contemplated by the Consorteum Purchase Agreement closed on June 30, 2011.

 

Upon completion of the Consorteum Purchase Agreement, the Company had notes payable totaling $986,600 that were not assumed in the agreement.

 

During the period ending June 30, 2012, $375,000 of the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes and accrued interest of $152,549 was converted to common stock and warrants as part of the February 2012 private placement. Furthermore, in the year ended December 31, 2012, another $375,000 of the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes was converted to common stock and warrants.

 

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes amounted to $236,600 and accrued interest amounted to $55,688 and $41,768, respectively.  These Consorteum Notes are currently in default.

Frank Note

 

On August 26, 2012, the Company entered into a secured promissory note (the “Frank Note”) with Fredrick Frank (the “August 2012 Lender”) pursuant to which the August 2012 Lender loaned the Company $200,000 that was due and payable on October 31, 2012 in accordance with the terms of the Frank Note (the “Maturity Date”). The Frank Note is secured by 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On November 6, 2012, the Company and the August 2012 Lender agreed to extend the Frank Note until November 30, 2012. Fredrick Frank is an advisor of the Company.

 

In August 2013 the Company was advised that the Frank Note and accrued interest of $18,696 was assigned to Redwood as part of Redwood Deal #1.

 

JJK Notes Payable

 

On May 29, 2013 and June 26, 2013, the Company issued promissory notes in the amount of $50,000 and $75,000, respectively, for advances from JJK, LLC (the “JJK Notes”). The terms of the JJK Notes required repayment in 30 days and an annual interest rate of 10%. The notes are currently due and payable.

 

In August 2013 the Company was advised that the JJK Notes and accrued interest of $28,442 were assigned to Redwood as part of Redwood Deal #4.

Redwood Deal #4

 

On August 5, 2013, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Redwood for $250,000 as part of Redwood Deal #4.  The Company received $125,000 cash, of which $15,000 is being amortized as financing fees over the term of the convertible promissory note, on August 7, 2013 as a partial payment for the convertible promissory note.  The remaining $125,000 was paid in October 2013. The terms of the convertible promissory note require repayment in one year and bears a 12% simple annual interest rate.  The convertible promissory note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price that shall be the lesser of $0.05 per share or 48% of the average of the lowest traded price of the Common Stock as quoted by Bloomberg, L.P. on any three trading days during the twenty trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. The convertible promissory note may be prepaid in whole or in part at the Company’s option without penalty. The conversion feature of the notes have been bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for separately as a derivative. The bifurcation of the embedded derivative created a debt discount which reduced the book value of the $250,000 note and increases prospectively the amount of interest expense to be recognized over the life of the note.

 

On October 23, 2013, Redwood assumed $125,000 of principal and $28,442 of accrued interest, which was converted to principal, from the JJK Notes as part of Redwood Deal #4.  The terms of the assumed debt remained the same.

Redwood Deal #5

 

On October 1, 2013, Redwood assumed $389,711 of total principal from the Rhodes Note, and $1,000,000 of total principal from the Victor Note, as part of Redwood Deal #5.  The terms of the assumed debt remained the same.

 

As of December 31, 2013, the principal balance of Redwood Deal #5 was $1,389,711, and accrued interest was $41,691.

 

The Company accounted for the conversion features underlying the convertible notes and issued in accordance with GAAP, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the debentures being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The fair value of the derivative conversion features for the notes was determined to be $5,123,932 and $0 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

12. Derivative Liabilities

 

The Company has issued various financial instruments to investors that contain full ratchet anti-dilution provisions.  GAAP provides guidance on determining what types of financial instruments or embedded features in a financial instrument would cause the financial instrument to be classified as a liability instead of equity.  Under the evaluation criteria, the Company concluded that the financial instruments that contained full ratchet anti-dilution provisions are to be treated as derivative liabilities.  GAAP requires that the fair value of these liabilities be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value over the period reported in the statement of operations.  These instruments were valued using pricing models which incorporate the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life.

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the financial instruments that are classified as derivative liabilities as of December 31:

    2013     2012  
    Embedded Detachable Warrants     Embedded Conversion Features     Embedded Detachable Warrants     Embedded Conversion Feature  
Risk free interest rate     1.750 %     0.13 %     3.00 %     3.00 %

Fair value at December 31  $48 2    $10,950 

 

13. Income Taxes

 

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse

 

A reconciliation of tax expense computed at the statutory federal tax rate income (loss) from operations before income taxes to the actual income tax expense is as follows:

   2013   2012 
Tax provision (benefits) computed at the statutory rate  $(4,405,000)  $(1,637,000)
Nondeductible expense   -    - 
    (4,405,000)   (1,637,000)
Increase in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets   4,405,000    1,637,000 
Income tax expense benefit  $-   $- 

 

F-24
 

 

Deferred income taxes include the net tax effects of net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards and the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets are as follows:

 

   2013   2012 
Stock based compensation  $1,387,000   $2,122,000 
Warrant   -    5,357,000 
Fair Value of Derivative Liability   2,441,000    276,000 
Net operating loss carryover   10,000,000    6,757,000 
Charitable contributions   -    8,000 
Total defered tax assets   13,828,000    14,520,000 
Valuation allowance   (13,828,000)   (14,520,000)
Net deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net deferred tax assets, because in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that these tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company’s NOL and tax credit carryovers may be significantly limited under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). NOL and tax credit carryovers are limited under Section 382 when there is a significant “ownership change” as defined in the IRC. During 2011 and in prior years, the Company may have experienced such ownership changes, which could impose such limitations.

 

The limitation imposed by the IRC would place an annual limitation on the amount of NOL and tax credit carryovers that can be utilized. When the Company completes the necessary studies, the amount of NOL carryovers available may be reduced significantly. However, since the valuation allowance fully reserves for all available carryovers, the effect of the reduction would be offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the State of New York.

The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted to employees during the year ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and the weighted-average significant assumptions used to determine those fair values, using a Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option pricing model are as follows:

 

   December 31,
2013
   December 31,
2012
 
Significant assumptions (weighted-average):        
Risk-free interest rate at grant date   -    0.31 to 1.71 %
Expected stock price volatility   -    105%
Expected dividend payout   -    - 
Expected option life (in years)   -    3.0 to 10. 0 
Expected forfeiture rate   -    0%
Fair value per share of options granted  $-   $0.17 

 

The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company has no historical experience with which to establish a basis for determining an expected life of these awards. Therefore, the Company only gave consideration to the contractual terms and did not consider the vesting schedules, exercise patterns and pre-vesting and post-vesting forfeitures significant to the expected life of the option award.

 

We estimate the volatility of our common stock based on the calculated historical volatility of similar entities in industry, in size and in financial leverage whose share prices are publicly available. We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term equal to the expected life of the award. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we use an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model.

 

There were no options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012.

 

Total stock-based compensation expense in connection with options granted to employees recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $2,213,672, respectively, net of tax effect. Total stock-based compensation expense in connection with options granted to non-employees recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $34,930, respectively, net of tax effect. Additionally, none of the options outstanding and unvested as of December 31, 2013 had any intrinsic value.

TCA Default Notice

 

On July 15, 2013, while the Company was finalizing an amendment and waiver to that certain Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) issued by the Company in favor of TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) on June 7, 2012 in the principal amount of $500,000, the Company was advised that Ironridge Global IV, LTD (“Ironridge”), led by Mr. John C. Kirkland, Esq., purportedly purchased the Note from TCA.  The Complaint and Motion alleged that Ironridge and TCA each served the Company with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of the same assets.

 

On August 8, 2013, a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed along with a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (the “Motion”) before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) under the caption Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index No. 652800/13. The Motion sought to restrain the sale of the Company’s assets.

 

Given that Ironridge and TCA asserted that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion sought to temporarily restrain both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court, New York County, issued a written Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary Restraining Order”).

 

On August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing on the Motion was held, at which time the Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of $535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant to that certain Equity Facility Agreement.  Since TCA admitted in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court that with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's obligations under the transaction documents have now been satisfied in full.

 

F-34
 

 

In addition, the Court found Ironridge’s jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New York and directed all parties to file submissions with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or are not owed under those certain transaction documents.   Judge Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place indefinitely until further order of the Court and that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make, post or distribute any further advertisements, internet postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto.  Finally, Judge Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was being held in escrow be immediately released.

 

The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against Ironridge and Kirklands’s improper attempts to seize the Company’s assets for not giving into Kirkland’s improper threats and demands. The Company will take all legal action necessary to protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Company is also arranging for all outstanding principal and interest under the Note to be paid as soon as possible.

 

Additional litigations

 

On March 17, 2014, Dean E. Miller, as representative shareholder, on behalf of the nominal defendant Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., filed a shareholder’s derivative action against Steven Victor, MD, in his capacity as Chairman - CEO and individually, Anna Rhodes as former Executive Vice President and individually, Leonard L. Mazur as interim Chief Operating Officer and individually,  Myron Holubiak as a Director and individually, Michael Hershman, as Chairman of the Board of Directors and individually,  Stuart Goldfarb as a former Director and individually, Victor Dermatology & Rejuvenation, P.C., Victor Cosmeceuticals, Inc., Lasersculpt, Inc., and the Doe Entities 1-5, as defendants, and Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., as nominal-defendant. The complaint, which was filed on the aforementioned date with the United States District Court Southern District of New York, alleges that the Company has failed to comply with US Food and Drug Administration and United States Patent and Trade Office regulations. The allegations in the complaint include, but are not limited to, allegations involving fraud, negligence, false reporting, and mismanagement of laboratory facilities. Pursuant to the complaint, the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000. Furthermore, the complaint as filed lists the following counts: 1. Against the individual defendants for breach of their fiduciary duties in connection with their management of the Company; 2. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty in connection with disseminating false information; 3. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty for failing to design and implement adequate internal controls; 4. Request for injunctive relief; 5. Imposition of constructive trust/accounting; and 6. Appointment of referee injunctive relief. The Company believes that such allegations and claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend such allegations and claims. Because the inquiry is in its initial stages, the Company is not currently able to predict the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, or the amount of any possible loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome. Consequently, no material provision or liability has been recorded for such allegations and claims as of December 31, 2013. However, management is confident in its defenses to such allegations and claims.

Schwartz and Salvani, both shareholders of the Company, are represented by Dollinger in his capacity as legal counsel.

Furthermore, the plaintiffs’ second cause of action alleges that Salvani made false statements to a potential investor, resulting in damages amounting to $250,000. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, together with punitive damages and interest in connection with the first cause of action, and compensatory damages in the amount of $250,000.00, together with punitive damages and interest, in connection with the second cause of action.
