SUMMARY

The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors" section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements.

The Company

General

On June 13, 2014, we acquired a 100% interest in NeuroHabilitation Corporation ("NHC") (the "Transaction") pursuant to a plan of merger whereby our wholly-owned subsidiary was merged with and into NHC and all of the common shares in the capital of NHC were cancelled in consideration for the issuance of an aggregate of 35,300,083 shares of our Class A common stock to the NHC shareholders. NHC is now our wholly-owned subsidiary. The Transaction constituted a reverse take-over of us by NHC. Prior to the acquisition of NHC we had no active business.

NHC is a Delaware company, incorporated on January 22, 2013, which is involved in the medical device industry. In January 2013, NHC entered into an exclusive right agreement whereby Advanced Neuro-Rehabilitation LLC ("ANR") granted NHC exclusive worldwide rights to ANR's patents, trade secrets and knowhow, including a patent pending technology that will enable the first non-invasive means for delivering neurostimulation through the oral cavity (the "PoNSTM") in exchange for 50% equity in NHC and a 4% royalty of NHC's revenue collected from (1) the sale of products covered by any claim of the patent rights (the "Devices") to end users and (2) services related to the therapy or use of the Devices in therapy services.

The brain's ability to recognize its operation in response to new information sources, new functional needs, or new communication pathways is referred to as neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is a process underlying all cerebral learning, training, and rehabilitation. Neuromodulation is the use of external tactile stimulation to intentionally change and regulate the internal electrochemical environment of the brain.

Traditional rehabilitation interventions have typically involved medication and various forms of therapies, including physical therapy. The PoNSTM device is being investigated in combination with physical therapy for the treatment of neurological symptoms from disease and trauma including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and Multiple Sclerosis.

Our principal offices are located at 12 Penns Trail, Newtown, PA 18940. Our telephone number is (267) 756-7028. Our registered office and registered agent in the State of Wyoming is located at CT Corporation System, 1712 Pioneer Ave., Ste. 120, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001.

Plan of Operations

The management team's goal is to make the Company the first company with a patented, FDA approved, non-invasive device and therapy for the treatment of balance and disorders related to trauma brain injury.

The principal business carried on and intended to be carried on by the Company is to complete the device design and manufacturing phase of PoNSTM, a patent pending technology that will enable the first non-invasive means for delivering neurostimulation through the oral cavity.

Over the next 12-month period, the Company intends to:

  • complete the pilot efficacy trial;
  • complete the device design and manufacturing phase;
  • continue development the Company's intellectual property;
  • drive the completion of international registration; and
  • create a physical therapy support network.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this prospectus in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. The risks described below may not be all of the risks facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.

Risks Related to Our Company

We have limited operating history and lack profitable operations.

NHC was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 22, 2013 and has had limited operations to date. Through its year ended March 31, 2014, NHC had accumulated losses of $9,585,134 and a working capital deficit of $267,977. We will be subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources, lack of revenue and the risk that we will not achieve our growth objective. We anticipate that we may take several years to achieve consistent positive cash flow from operations. There is no assurance that we will be successful in achieving significant revenues or profitability.

We may be required to obtain additional financing to carry out our plan of operations and if we require additional financing and are unable to obtain such financing, our business may fail.

Additional funds for the establishment of our current and planned operations may be required. No assurances can be given that we will be able to raise the additional funding that may be required for such activities, should such funding not be fully generated from operations. Current financial conditions, revenues, taxes, capital expenditures and operating expenses are all factors which will have an impact on the amount of additional capital that may be required. To meet such funding requirements, we may be required to undertake additional equity financing, which would be dilutive to our stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may also involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing as needed, we may be required to reduce the scope of our operations and pursue only those projects that can be funded through cash flows generated from its existing operations, if any.

The neuromodulation market is new and uncertain and the failure of the expansion of such market could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial position.

The neuromodulation market is relatively new and its long-term growth prospects are uncertain. Should the neuromodulation market fail to expand, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial position.

Our ability to develop additional products is subject to the risks inherent in the development of new devices and products based on new technologies. Because of these inherent risks, our research and development may not result in any commercially viable devices or products, which if not commercially successful may have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition.

-9-


The development of additional products is subject to the risks of failure inherent in the development of new, state of the art products, laboratory devices and products based on new technologies. These risks include: (i) delays in product development or manufacturing; (ii) unplanned expenditures for product development or manufacturing; (iii) failure of new products to have the desired effect or an acceptable accuracy profile; (iv) emergence of superior or equivalent products; (v) failure by any potential collaborative partners to successfully develop products; and (vi) the dependence on third parties for the manufacture, development and sale of the Company's products. Because of these risks, our research and development efforts or those of potential collaborative partners may not result in any commercially viable products. If a significant portion of these development efforts is not successfully completed, or any products are not commercially successful, we are less likely to generate significant revenues, or become profitable. The failure to perform such activities could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of its operations.

We can provide no assurance that the development by others of new or improved devices or products will not result in our present and future products from becoming obsolete.

The areas in which we plan to commercialize, distribute, and/or sell products involves rapidly developing technology. There can be no assurance that we will be able to establish ourselves in such fields, or, if established, that we will be able to maintain our market position, if any. There can be no assurance that the development by others of new or improved products will not make our present and future products, if any, superfluous or obsolete.

Our future success depends on our ability to obtain approval on the patent for the PoNSTM technology, failing which we may be unable to protect our proprietary information and any competitive advantage which may have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition.

Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain approval on the patent for the PoNS(TM) technology. There can be no assurance that the patent application made will result in the issuance of the patent or that the term of the patent will be extendable after it expires in due course, which will prevent us from being able to protect our proprietary information and may have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition.

 

Much of our know-how and technology may not be patentable, though they may constitute trade secrets. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to meaningfully protect our trade secrets. To help protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary technology, we require employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance that these agreements will provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.

If our intellectual property protection is inadequate, competitors may gain access to our technology and undermine our competitive position.

We regard our intended and future intellectual property as important to our success, and we intend to rely on patent law to protect our proprietary rights. Despite our precautions, unauthorized third parties may copy certain portions of our devices or products or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. We may seek additional patents in the future. We do not know if any future patent application will be issued with the scope of the claims we seek, if at all, or whether any patents we receive will be challenged or invalidated. Thus, we cannot assure you that any intellectual property rights that we may receive can be successfully asserted in the future or that they will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting any proprietary rights we may receive in the United States or abroad may not be adequate and competitors may independently develop a similar

-10-


technology. Any failure to protect our proprietary information and any successful intellectual property challenges or infringement proceedings against us could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

We may be subject to intellectual property litigation, such as patent infringement claims, which could adversely affect our business.

Our commercial success will also depend, in part, on not infringing on the patents or proprietary rights of others. There can be no assurance that the technologies and products used or developed by us will not infringe such rights. If such infringement occurs and we are not able to obtain a license from the relevant third party, we will not be able to continue the development, manufacture, use, or sale of any such infringing technology or product. There can be no assurance that necessary licenses to third-party technology will be available at all or on commercially reasonable term. In some cases, litigation or other proceedings may be necessary to defend against or assert claims of infringement or to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of third parties. Any potential litigation could result in substantial costs to, and diversion of, our resources and could have a material and adverse impact on us. An adverse outcome in any such litigation or proceeding could subject us to significant liabilities, require us to cease using the subject technology or require us to license the subject technology from the third party, all of which could have a material adverse affect on our business.

If our expenses are greater than anticipated, then we will have fewer funds with which to pursue our plan of operations and our financing requirements will be greater than anticipated.

We may find that the costs of carrying out our plan of operations are greater than we anticipate. Increased operating costs may cause the amount of financing that we require to increase. Investors may be more reluctant to provide additional financing if we cannot demonstrate that we can control our operating costs. There is no assurance that additional financing required as a result of our operating costs being greater than anticipated will be available to us. If we do not control our operating expenses, then we will have fewer funds with which to carry out our plan of operations with the result that our business may fail.

If and when we sell our products, we may be liable for product liability claims and we may not carry sufficient product liability insurance.

The devices and products that we intend to develop may expose us to potential liability from personal injury claims by end-users of the product. We intend to carry product liability insurance to protect us against the risk that in the future a product liability claim or product recall could materially and adversely affect our business. Inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or otherwise to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our intended products. We cannot assure you that if and when we commence distribution of our product that we will be able to obtain or maintain adequate coverage on acceptable terms, or that such insurance will provide adequate coverage against all potential claims. Moreover, even if we maintain adequate insurance, any successful claim could materially and adversely affect our reputation and prospects, and divert management's time and attention. If we are sued for any injury allegedly caused by our future products our liability could exceed our total assets and our ability to pay the liability.

We are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act of 2012, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an "emerging growth company", as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 ("JOBS Act"), and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not

-11-


limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation, shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved and presenting the relationship between executive compensation actually paid and our financial performance. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years after our first sale of common stock pursuant to a Securities Act registration statement, although we will lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any September 30.

Our status as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act of 2012 may make it more difficult to raise capital as and when we need it.  Because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an "emerging growth company", we may be less attractive to investors and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected..

We are dependent upon the ability and expertise of certain members of our senior management and the loss of such individuals could have an material adverse affect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

Our success is dependent upon the ability, expertise, judgment, discretion and good faith of our senior management, and in particular Mr. Phil Deschamps, our President and CEO. While employment agreements are customarily used as a primary method of retaining the services of key employees, these agreements cannot assure the continued services of such employees. Any loss of the services of such individuals could have a material adverse affect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

We are a small company with limited resources compared to some of our current and potential competitors and we may not be able to compete effectively and increase market share.

There is potential that we will face intense competition from other companies, some of which can be expected to have longer operating histories and more financial resources and manufacturing and marketing experience than us. Increased competition by larger and better financed competitors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and our results of operations.

Because of the early stage of the industry in which we intend to operate, we expect to face additional competition from new entrants. To be competitive, we will require a continued high level of investment in research and development, marketing, sales and client support. We may not have sufficient resources to maintain research and development, marketing, sales and client support efforts on a competitive basis which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and our results of operations.

Our officers and directors may be subject to conflicts of interest.

Some of our officers and directors serve only part time and may be subject to conflicts of interest. Each may devote part of his working time to other business endeavors, including consulting relationships with other corporate entities, and may have responsibilities to these other entities. Such conflicts may include deciding how much time to devote to our affairs, as well as what business opportunities should be

-12-


presented to us. Because of these relationships, some of our officers and directors may be subject to conflicts of interest. Any Company-related decision made by any of these directors and officers involving us should be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal fairly and in good faith and to act in the best interests of us and our shareholders. In addition, each of the directors is required to declare and refrain from voting on any matter in which such director may have a conflict of interest.

Philippe Deschamps, our President, CEO and a director, serves full time (40 hours per week). All of the other directors and officers only provide services to us on a part time basis as follows:

Amanda Tseng (Chief Financial Officer and director) - 14 hours per week;
Savio Chiu (director) - 8 hours per week;
Yuri Danilov (director) - 8 hours per week; and
Mitch Tyler (director) - 8 hours per week.

The use of recent private placement funds received by us and as disclosed herein are estimates only and subject to change. The failure to effectively apply such funds could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Although we have set out our intended use of proceeds from our recent private placement on May 30, 2014, these intended uses are estimates only and subject to change. While management does not contemplate any material variation, management does retain broad discretion in the application of such proceeds. The failure by us to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to achieve our stated business objectives.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Trading of our common stock is sporadic, and the price of our common stock may be volatile; we caution you as to the highly illiquid nature of an investment in our shares.

Our common stock is quoted on the Canadian Securities Exchange since June 23, 2014. To date, trading in our common stock has been limited and sporadic. Securities of microcap and small-cap companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past, often based on factors unrelated to the companies' financial performance or prospects. These factors include macroeconomic developments in North America and globally and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries. Factors unrelated to our performance that may affect the price of our common stock include the following: the extent of analytical coverage available to investors concerning our business may be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not follow us, lessening in trading volume and general market interest in our common stock may affect an investor's ability to trade significant numbers of shares of our common stock; the size of our public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in our common stock; and a substantial decline in the price of shares of our common stock that persists for a significant period of time could cause our common stock, if listed on an exchange, to be delisted from such exchange, further reducing market liquidity. As a result of any of these factors, the market price of our common stock at any given point in time may not accurately reflect our long-term value. The price of our common shares may increase or decrease in response to a number of events and factors, including: changes in financial estimates; our acquisitions and financings; quarterly variations in our operating results; the operating and share price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable; and purchase or sale of blocks of our common stock. These factors, or any of them, may materially adversely affect the prices of our common shares regardless of our operating performance. We caution you as to the highly illiquid nature of an investment in our shares.

The market price of our common stock is affected by many other variables which are not directly related to our success and are, therefore, not within our control. These include other developments that affect the breadth of the public market for shares of our common stock and the attractiveness of alternative investments. The effect of these and other factors on the market price of our common stock is expected to make our common stock price volatile in the future, which may result in losses to investors.

-13-


A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise any required working capital and adversely impact our operations.

A decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise any required capital for our operations. Because our operations to date have been principally financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could have an adverse effect upon our liquidity and our continued operations. A reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future may have a material adverse effect upon our business plan and operations. If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations.

We have not paid any dividends and do not foresee paying dividends in the future.

We intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business and do not intend to pay cash dividends on shares of our common stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of future cash dividends, if any, will be reviewed periodically by the board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, conditions then existing including earnings, financial condition and capital requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, business opportunities and other factors.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000, not including any equity in that person's or person's spouse's primary residence, or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

-14-


 

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the "penny stock" rules promulgated by the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock.

Any future sales of our equity securities will dilute the ownership percentage of our existing stockholders and may decrease the market price for our common stock.

Future sales or issuances of equity securities could decrease the value of our common stock, dilute stockholders' voting power and reduce future potential earnings per share. We intend to sell additional equity securities in future offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into shares of our common stock) and may issue additional equity securities to finance our operations, development, acquisitions or other projects. We cannot predict the size of future sales and issuances of equity securities or the effect, if any, that future sales and issuances of equity securities will have on the market price of our common stock. Sales or issuances of a substantial number of equity securities, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. With any additional sale or issuance of equity securities, investors will suffer dilution of their voting power and may experience dilution in our earnings per share.

Shares of our common stock that are "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) are subject to resale restrictions imposed by Rule 144, including those set forth in Rule 144(i) which apply to a "shell company." In addition, any shares of our common stock that are held by affiliates, including any received in a registered offering, will be subject to the resale restrictions of Rule 144(i).

Pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, a "shell company" is defined as a company that has: (i) no or nominal operations and (ii) either (A) no or nominal assets, (B) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or (C) assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. We were a "shell company" pursuant to Rule 144 prior to the Transaction, and as such, Rule 144(i) provides that sales of our securities pursuant to Rule 144 are not able to be made until a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date on which our initial Form S-1 providing Form 10 level disclosure was filed with the Commission, which twelve-month period will elapse on July 12, 2015. Therefore, any restricted securities currently outstanding or that we sell in the future or issue to consultants or employees, in consideration for services rendered or for any other purpose, will have no liquidity until and unless such securities are registered with the Commission and/or until a year after the date of the filing of our initial Form S-1 and we have otherwise complied with the other requirements of Rule 144. As a result, it may be harder for us to fund our operations and pay our employees and consultants with our securities instead of cash than if we had not previously been a "shell company". Furthermore, it will be harder for us to raise funding through the sale of debt or equity securities unless we agree to register such securities with the Commission, which could cause us to expend additional resources in the future. Our previous status as a "shell company" could prevent us from raising additional funds, engaging employees and consultants, and using our securities to pay for any acquisitions (although none are currently planned), which could cause the value of our securities, if any, to decline in value or become worthless. Lastly, any shares held by affiliates, including shares received in any registered offering, will be subject to the resale restrictions of Rule 144(i).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our market, strategy, competition, capital needs, business plans and expectations. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties regarding the success of our business plan, availability of funds, government regulations, operating costs, our ability to achieve significant revenues and other factors. Forward-looking statements are made, without limitation, in relation to operating plans, availability of funds and operating costs. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential" or "continue", the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. Actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors, including the risks outlined in this prospectus. These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith, based on information available to us as of the date hereof, and reflect our current judgment regarding our business plans, our actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.

All proceeds from the sale of the shares will be for the account of the Selling Stockholders, as described below in the sections of this prospectus entitled "Selling Stockholders" and "Plan of Distribution". We will, however, incur all costs associated with this prospectus and the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus are offering all of the 25,160,000 shares of common stock offered through this prospectus, consisting of 17,540,000 shares of our common stock and 7,620,000 shares of common stock underlying warrants, of which 15,240,000 of the 17,540,000 shares were issued to the Selling Stockholders at a price of CDN$0.50 per subscription receipt in a private placement exempt from the registration provisions of the U.S. Securities Act that closed on May 30, 2014 and where each subscription receipt automatically converted into one share of common stock and one-half of one warrant upon closing of the Transaction on June 13, 2014. The remaining 2,300,000 shares were issued to one entity in connection with the closing of the Transaction which was exempt from the registration provisions of the U.S. Securities Act.

-16-


The 25,160,000 shares of common stock referred to above are being registered to permit public sales of the shares, and the Selling Stockholders may offer the shares for resale from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may also sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of their shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act or pursuant to another effective registration statement covering those shares.

Except for their ownership of common stock or otherwise as described below, none of the Selling Stockholders had or have any material relationship with us.

-17-


Because a Selling Stockholder may offer by this prospectus all or some part of the common shares which it holds, no estimate can be given as at the date hereof as to the number of common shares actually to be offered for sale by a Selling Stockholder or as to the number of common shares that will be held by a Selling Stockholder upon the termination of such offering.

(1)  Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided.

(2)  Represents the amount of shares that will be held by the selling stockholder after completion of this offering based on the assumptions that (a) all shares registered for sale by the registration statement of which this prospectus is part will be sold and (b) that no other shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders are acquired or are sold prior to completion of this offering by the selling stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Timing of Sales

The Selling Stockholders may offer and sell the shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The Selling Stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.

-23-


 

Offering Price

The Selling Stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the Selling Stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent's commissions. The shares of common stock may be sold on the Canadian Securities Exchange or any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions.

Manner of Sale

The shares may be sold by means of one or more of the following methods:

1.     a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

2.     purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;

3.     ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

4.     through options, swaps or derivative;

5.     privately negotiated transactions; or

6.     in a combination of any of the above methods.

The Selling Stockholders may sell their shares directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell their shares. Brokers or dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the Selling Stockholders, or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved. Broker-dealers may agree with a Selling Stockholder to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share, and, to the extent the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a Selling Stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the Selling Stockholder. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may thereafter resell the shares from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with resales of the shares, broker-dealers may pay to commissions or receive from commissions the purchasers of shares as described above.

If our Selling Stockholders enter into arrangements with brokers or dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker dealers acting as underwriters.

-24-


The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the Selling Stockholders in the sale of the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Because the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder.

Sales Pursuant to Rule 144

Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

Pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, a "shell company" is defined as a company that has: (i) no or nominal operations and (ii) either (A) no or nominal assets, (B) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or (C) assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. We were a "shell company" pursuant to Rule 144 prior to the Transaction, and as such, Rule 144(i) provides that sales of our securities pursuant to Rule 144 are not able to be made until a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date on which this initial Form S-1 providing Form 10 level disclosure was filed with the Commission reflecting our status as an entity that is no longer a "shell company," which twelve-month period will elapse on July 12, 2015.

Regulation M

We have advised the selling security holders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling security holders and their affiliates. Regulation M under the Exchange Act prohibits, with certain exceptions, participants in a distribution from bidding for, or purchasing for an account in which the participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution. Accordingly, the Selling Stockholder is not permitted to cover short sales by purchasing shares while the distribution is taking place. Regulation M also governs bids and purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with a distribution of the security. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling security holders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

State Securities Laws

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

Penny Stock Rules

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "institutional accredited investors." The term "institutional accredited investor" refers generally to those accredited investors who are not natural persons and fall into one of the categories of accredited investor specified in subparagraphs (1), (2), (3), (7) or (8) of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, including institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000.

-25-


The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and impose a waiting period of two business days before effecting the transaction. The risk disclosure document provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

Expenses of Registration

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. The Selling Stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Corporate History

We were incorporated on March 13, 2014 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "BCBCA") as "0996445 B.C. Ltd." On May 23, 2014, we changed our name to "Helius Medical Technologies, Inc." On June 2, 2014, we completed a continuation from being a corporation governed by BCBCA to a corporation governed by the Wyoming Business Corporation Act by way of a plan of arrangement.

Our head office is located at 12 Penns Trail, Newtown, PA 18940. Our registered office and registered agent is located at CT Corporation System, 1712 Pioneer Ave., Ste. 120, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001.

We have two wholly-owned subsidiaries: 0995162 B.C. Ltd., which is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, and NeuroHabilitation Corporation ("NHC"), which is incorporated in the State of Delaware. On June 13, 2014, pursuant to the Transaction, HMT Mergersub, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, merged with and into NHC under the Delaware General Corporation Law with NHC as the surviving corporation.

Acquisition of NHC and Concurrent Financing

On June 13, 2014, we acquired a 100% interest in NHC (the "Transaction") pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger among us, HMT Mergersub, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, and NHC dated June 6, 2014. Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, HMT Mergersub, Inc. and NHC merged under the Delaware General Corporation Law with NHC as the surviving corporation and all of the common shares in the capital of NHC were cancelled. In consideration for the cancellation of the outstanding common shares of NHC each shareholder of NHC received that number of shares of our common stock determined by multiplying the number of NHC common shares held by such shareholder by 16.0350261. Pursuant to the Transaction, we issued an aggregate of 35,300,083 shares of our common stock to the former shareholders of NHC and as a result of the Transaction NHC became our wholly-owned subsidiary. The Transaction constituted a reverse take-over of us by NHC. Prior to the acquisition of NHC we had no active business.

In connection with the Transaction, we completed a non-brokered private placement financing of CDN$7.62 million (the "Concurrent Financing") by issuing 15.24 million subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts"). Pursuant to their terms, each Subscription Receipt automatically converted into one unit of the Company (a "Concurrent Financing Unit") upon satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions, including the completion of the Transaction. Each Concurrent Financing Unit consisted of

-27-


one share of our common stock (a "Concurrent Financing Share") and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant being, a "Concurrent Financing Warrant") exercisable at CDN$1.00 per share for a period of two years. In connection with the Concurrent Financing, we paid aggregate finders' fees of $412,200 and issued 824,000 warrants (the "Finder Warrants"). Each Finder Warrant is exercisable at CDN$1.00 per share for a period of two years.

General Development of the Business of NHC

NHC is a Delaware company, incorporated on January 22, 2013, which is involved in the medical device industry. In January 2013, NHC entered into an exclusive right agreement whereby Advanced Neuro-Rehabilitation LLC ("ANR") granted NHC exclusive worldwide rights to ANR's patents, trade secrets and knowhow, including a patent pending technology that will enable the first non-invasive means for delivering neurostimulation through the oral cavity (the "PoNSTM") in exchange for 50% equity in NHC and a 4% royalty of NHC's revenue collected from (1) the sale of products covered by any claim of the patent rights (the "Devices") to end users and (2) services related to the therapy or use of the Devices in therapy services.

On February 1, 2013, NHC, as cooperator, signed a collaborative research and development agreement (the "CRADA") with Advanced NeuroRehabilitation, LLC, as the background patent owner, Yuri Danilov, Mitchell Tyler and Kurt Kaczmarek, as the inventors, and the U.S. Army Medical Material Agency and the U.S. Army Medical Material Development Activity. Pursuant to the CRADA agreement, the U.S. Armed Forces is called to fund, manage and provide regulatory oversight associated with the clinical effort necessary to secure the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") clearance and approval. NHC is currently in the process of seeking de-novo 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the treatment of balance and disorders related to traumatic brain injury ("TBI"). Once the safety and efficacy of the technology is established, NHC intends to commercialize the technology.

Following completion of research, product strategy and concept generation, we intend to complete the concept development and design development phases.

Business of the Company

The brain's ability to recognize its operation in response to new information sources, new functional needs, or new communication pathways is referred to as Neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is a process underlying all cerebral learning, training, and rehabilitation. Neuromodulation is the use of external tactile stimulation to intentionally change and regulate the internal electrochemical environment of the brain.

Traditional rehabilitation interventions have typically involved medication and various forms of therapies, including physical therapy. In a non-controlled clinical setting, the PoNSTM device, when combined with physical or cognitive therapy designed to overcome the identified symptoms, has been shown to significantly improve and sustain functional rehabilitation to address brain dysfunction from traumatic, degenerative, developmental, chemical, or unknown origins. The device, in conjunction with physical or cognitive therapy, has shown anecdotal positive results in a great majority of patients.

(a) Business Objectives

Our management team's goal is to make us the first company with a patented, FDA approved, non-invasive device and therapy for the treatment of balance and disorders related to traumatic brain injury.

The principal business carried on and intended to be carried on by us is to complete the device design and manufacturing phase of PoNSTM, a patent pending technology that we believe will enable the first non-invasive means for delivering neurostimulation through the oral cavity.

-28-


Over the next 12-month period, we intend to:

i.     complete the pilot efficacy trial;
ii. complete pilot trial in Multiple Sclerosis
iii.     complete the device design and manufacturing phase;
iv.     continue development of our intellectual property;
v.     drive the completion of international registration; and

Device Description

Physical Construction and User Interface

The portable neuromodulation stimulator (PoNS(TM)) version 2.2 device is an electrical pulse generator that delivers controlled electrical stimulation to the tongue. Pulses are generated and controlled by commercially available counter, timer, and wave-shaping electronic components. The components are mounted to a single printed circuit board (Figure 1 and Figure 2). The circuit board contains 143 gold-plated electrodes that contact the tongue. A rechargeable lithium- polymer battery with built-in charge safety circuitry provides power.

Figure 1: Top of the PoNS Neuro-stimulator board

-30-


Figure 2: Bottom of the PoNS(TM) Neuro-stimulator board

Figure 3: Photographs of the PoNS(TM) Neuromodulation Stimulator Being Investigated in Conjunction with Physical Therapy for the Treatment of Balance and Gait Disorders.

The device is held lightly in place by the lips and teeth around the neck of the tab that goes into the mouth and rests on the anterior, superior part of the tongue. The paddle-shaped tab of the device has a hexagonally patterned array of 143 gold-plated circular electrodes (1.50 mm diameter, on 2.34 mm centers) that is created by a photolithographic process used to make printed circuit boards. It uses low-level electrical current to stimulate the lingual branch projections of at least two cranial nerves in the anterior tongue through the gold-plated electrodes. Device function is user-controlled by four buttons: On, Off, Intensity 'Up', and Intensity 'Down'.

While the voltage and pulse timing to each electrode are programmed into the device and cannot be altered, the subject adjusts the stimulus intensity with a pair of buttons. At any instant in time, one of the electrodes in each of the nine sectors on the array is delivering stimulation while the remaining electrodes serve as the current return path to ground. The sensation produced by the array is similar to the feeling of drinking a carbonated beverage. The biphasic waveform is specifically designed to ensure zero net DC current to minimize the potential for tissue irritation.

-31-


When the PoNS(TM) device is turned off, the intensity setting automatically resets to zero. Upon first introduction to the device stimulation, subjects are instructed to press the "Up" intensity button (approximately 35-45 times, or press and hold it for approximately 4-5 seconds) to reach sensation threshold. Subjects will frequently notice that the sensation intensity decreases 2-4 minutes after stimulation onset. This sensation is normal and attributable to sensory adaptation. Subjects are instructed to simply increase the sensation level to return to the predetermined perceptual midpoint of their individual perceptual dynamic range. This procedure can be considered comparable to titrating a drug dosage according to a desired blood level so that the percept (and to a first approximation the neurophysiological impact) is held invariant.

The PoNS(TM) device was designed and developed in the Tactile Communication and Neurorehabilitation Laboratory (TCNL), Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Wisconsin-Madison in Madison, Wisconsin. The printed circuit board and electrodes are fabricated by Advanced Circuits (based in Aurora, Colorado), surface-mounted integrated circuit components are assembled by a commercial electronics assembler, and packaging is performed by Simplex Electronics (based in Middleton, Wisconsin). Final inspection, verification, and epoxy encapsulation are performed at the TCNL by the investigators or designees.

Part of the Body or Type of Tissue to Which Applied or with Which the Device Is Interacting

The PoNS(TM) device is placed in the mouth and held lightly in place by the lips and teeth around the neck of the tab that goes into the mouth and rests on the anterior, superior part of the tongue. The hexagonally patterned array of 143 gold-plated circular electrodes uses low-level electrical current to stimulate the lingual projections of two cranial nerves in the anterior tongue.

Frequency of Use

To date, the intervention model that has been investigated most thoroughly is an intensive twice-daily treatment with a physical therapist for 2 weeks, followed by a period of 12 weeks of at-home twice-daily use with weekly reporting and monthly follow-up visits to the University of Wisconsin-Madison research team. A typical 12-week program is shown in Table 1. During the 2-week in-lab program, subjects are also expected to train on weekends and to perform the second breathing awareness training in the evening approximately 1-2 hours before bed. Each session with the device lasts 20 minutes.

Proposed Inprovements to PoNSTM

The registrational clinical trials for FDA approval is anticipated to be performed with the PoNS(TM) 4.0 device. While it is expected to deliver the exact same stimulation to the patient it is expected to be considerably improved ergonomically and more feature laden than the existing PoNS(TM) 2.2 device. Table 2 lists the similarities and differences between the current PoNS(TM) device (version 2.2) and the planned, commercially marketed version of PoNS(TM) (version 4.0). Version 2.2 is hand-built in low quantities and is not produced in strict compliance with good manufacturing practices (GMPs). Version 4.0 is anticipated to be produced in accordance with the GMPs and is expected to have some additional features that the current version does not have.

The proposed additional functionality of data logging and data communications for the PoNS(TM) version 4.0 device addresses two primary stakeholder needs:

-33-


  • To provide the patient with useful/informative information about their therapy, such as a reminder to conduct therapy, time remaining during therapy, and ready status of the device (e.g. charge level).

  • To provide the overseeing clinician with information concerning patient compliance with unsupervised (e.g. at home) therapy. This can enable adjustments to training and therapy that may help improve compliance and outcomes.

Safety Profile for the PoNS(TM) Device

We believe that the risks associated with the PoNS(TM) device are not significant, based on, among things, the following:

  • The FDA has suggested the PoNS(TM) device is to be submitted as a de-novo class II device (i.e. non-significant risk device)
  • Four separate Internal Review Boards (IRBs) from leading universities have deemed the PoNS(TM) device as a device with "non-significant risk" and thus cleared clinical protocol without having received FDA approval.
  • An estimated 1,500 patients have been treated worldwide with no reports of adverse events over the last 7 years.

Specialized Skills and Knowledge

The Tactile Communication and Rehabilitation Laboratory in Madison, Wisconsin (https://tcnl.bme.wisc.edu) was founded by the three inventors and intellectual property holders of the PoNS(TM) device (subsequently licensed exclusively to NHC): Dr. Mitch Tyler, Dr. Yuri Danilov, and Dr. Kurt Kaczmarek. Between them they have over 70 years of neuro-rehabilitation expertise. They are founders, directors and scientific advisors of NHC.

Intellectual Property

The intellectual property relating to the PoNSTM device is the subject of U.S. Patent Application 12/348301 and Provisional Patent Application 61/019,061 (the "Patent Rights"). The Patent Rights include one XYZ claim and 22 method claims, which cover a device in the form of a mouth piece that non-invasively delivers neurostimulation to the brain stem via the trigeminal nerve. Advanced NeuroRehabilitation, LLC ("ANR"), a significant shareholder of the Company, holds interests in the Patent Rights pursuant to an exclusive license from the inventors.

Pursuant to an amended and restated sublicense agreement (the "Sublicense Agreement"), ANR has granted NHC a worldwide, exclusive license to make, have made, use, lease and sell devices utilizing the Patent Rights. In addition, ANR has agreed that ownership of any improvements, enhancements or derivative works of the Patent Rights which are developed by NHC or ANR shall be owned by NHC, provided that if NHC decides not to patent such improvements, ANR may choose to pursue patent rights independently. Pursuant to the Sublicense Agreement, NHC has agreed to pay ANR royalties equal to 4% of NHC's revenues collection from the sale of devises covered by the Patent Rights and services related to the therapy or use of devises covered by the Patent Rights in therapy services. On June 6, 2014, NHC and ANR entered into a second amended and restated sublicense agreement (the "Second Sublicense Agreement"), which acknowledges the Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which NHC will be merged with and into our wholly-owned subsidiary, HMT Mergersub, Inc. whereby NHC will be the surviving entity as a wholly-owned subsidiary of us, and includes us as well as any affiliate of NHC or us with respect to a certain termination provision and the restriction on sub-licensing.

The license of the Patent Rights are subject to the right of the Government of the United States, which funded certain research relating to the development of the PoNSTM device, to a nonexclusive, non-transferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to use the Patent Rights for governmental purposes. In addition, NHC has granted a perpetual, royalty-free license to the Patent Rights back to ANR for non-profit research and development activities which do not compete with NHC's business and to produce and

-35-


derive revenues from devices and services in connection with investigational uses of the PoNSTM device and related technology.

The license of the Patent Rights is also subject to the terms of the CRADA agreement. Pursuant to the CRADA agreement, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command (USAMRMC) will be the sponsor of the regulatory application for the PoNSTM technology until the application is cleared or approved by the FDA, at which point USAMRMC will transfer such clearance or approval to us. After transfer of the regulatory application to us, in the event that we are not willing or able to commercialize the technology within two years from the expiration of this CRADA, we are required to transfer possession, ownership and sponsorship/holdership of the regulation application, regulatory correspondence and supporting regulatory information related technology to USAMRMC and grant the U.S. Government a non-exclusive, irrevocable license to any patent, copyright, data rights, proprietary information or regulatory information for the U.S. Government to commercialize the technology.

We anticipate receiving final adjudication with respect to the Patent Rights from the United States Patent and Trademark Office by mid to late 2014. In addition, we intend to file applications through the Patent Cooperation Treaty process to attempt to gain patent protection in all 148 treaty countries and also intend to hire an intellectual property firm to help drive our intellectual property strategy and patent portfolio.

(f) Production and Sales

Design and Manufacturing Development

NHC will subcontract the design and build of the PoNS(TM) device to Ximedica (based in Providence, Rhode Island), a contract manufacturer that was chosen after an exhaustive procurement process. The inherent design of the product makes it an ideal product for contract manufacturing. NHC patents, trade secrets and know-how are expected to be shared with Ximedica on a confidential, need to know basis. The system will require some very light assembly and labeling that is expected to be done by Ximedica. Ximedica is a registered medical device manufacturer certified to ISO 13485 and in good standing with the FDA.

Based on a monthly forecast from NHC, Ximedica will build to stock, warehouse and ship product to the customer as well has handle all customer service related tasks including, order entry, order management and product warranty responsibility. NHC expects to retain responsibility for sales, marketing, R&D and all back office operations including customer service. At this stage, NHC anticipates the primary delivery points will be regional military centers and national physical therapy centers.

Ximedica was selected following a thorough procurement process to find a device design and manufacturing partner. NHC engaged Clinvue, who specialize in the design development project management, to assist with the procurement process. Clinvue was responsible for:

  • ethnographic research for all stakeholders (patient, physical therapists, caregivers, health professionals);
  • the procurement selection process for finding device design and manufacturing partner; and
  • generation of the product specifications document to drive device design and manufacturing.

Under the Commercial Development-to-Supply Program between Ximedica, LLC and NHC, dated October 25, 2013, Ximedica' s responsibilities will include:

  • designing the commercial device following their proven design development process;
  • developing the manufacturing process and completing the initial manufacturing of the device (their facility can produce PoNS(TM) units in quantities of tens of thousands per year); and
  • developing the quality control process.

-36-


Once larger industrial quantities will be required, NHC plans to take over the manufacturing and quality control process.

Components

The existing PoNS(TM) 2.2 device is not a commercial product, but it delivers the therapy effectively.

The design and manufacturing development process has estimate at this stage of its development that NHC will be able to produce the PoNS(TM) device at a cost of $150 per device controller in quantities in the tens of thousands and at under $100 for quantities in the hundreds of thousands. The electronic array that delivers the tongue stimulation is estimated to be designed and manufactured for $25 per unit.

U.S. Armed Forces

Pursuant to the terms of the collaborative research and development agreement (the "CRADA") between NHC, as the cooperator, ANR, as the background patent owner, Yuri Danilov, Mitchell Tyler and Kurt Kaczmarek, as the inventors, and the U.S. Army Medical Material Agency ("USAMMA") and the U.S. Army Medical Material Development Activity ("USAMMDA"), the parties agreed to the following responsibilities with respect to the development of the PoNSTM device.

U.S. Armed Forces Responsibilities:

  • Serve as the regulatory sponsor of the PoNSTM device for all formal and informal interactions with the FDA necessary to gain FDA clearance/approval, to include the initial 513 (g) submission.
  • Supply the facilities and personnel to execute and/or oversee the execution of clinical studies of the device for FDA clearance/approval in support of an intended use of the PoNS(TM) device for the treatment of soldiers suffering from balance and gait disorders, by providing the following services:
    • clinical trial monitoring,
    • full biostatical support,
    • data management oversight,
    • product technical oversight,
    • safety pharmacovigilance and reporting to FDA,
    • device qualification/validation, and
    • testing plan for release of devices.

  • Conduct assessments of the manufacturing facility and assist/advise facility in meeting FDA manufacturing requirements.
  • Aid in designing the clinical protocols to study the PoNS(TM) device as an adjunct to specialized physical therapy in patients with balance and gait disorders.
  • Provide advice and expertise on all Army administrative protocols and approvals to execute the studies with military personnel, reservists, and/or veterans.
  • Prepare and submit the necessary regulatory filings for FDA to secure regulatory clearance or approval, after which such clearance/approval will be transferred to NHC.
  • Ensure NHC receives copies of all formal and informal communications with FDA related to the PoNS(TM) device.

-37-


NHC Responsibilities:

  • Complete the commercial design, including ergonomics (e.g. user controls, comfort), and design for improved manufacturability, reliability, and field support and regulatory testing to comply with the FDA regulations for such devices.
  • Work collaboratively with the Army personnel to supply all the technical specifications, documentation and any other information required to address FDA requests on the pathway to obtaining FDA clearance/approval of the PoNS(TM) device.
  • Finalize the commercial design of the PoNS(TM) device so that the devices would be commercially available to the Army should the results of the study be positive.
  • Identify and engage a commercial manufacturer post-FDA clearance of the device to produce the device for purchase by the U.S. Army.

The US armed forces were interested in signing the CRADA because of the very high incidence of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) in soldiers and the fact that there is virtually no treatment available for those soldiers who suffer from chronic sequelae from their TBI. Incidence of TBI in the U.S. armed forces numbers 30,000 per year in the active duty personnel and over 600,000 retired soldiers have a diagnosis of TBI in the Veteran's Administration (the "VA").

The U.S. Army has indicated that it is committed to supplying PoNS(TM) devices to the personnel who need it post FDA approval. NHC estimates that between the active duty soldiers and the VA retired soldiers that the army will purchase 23,000 units in the first 18 months of sales.

Once the U.S. Army helps NHC get its first indication for balance and disorder in TBI they have committed to pursue four other indications that are most burdensome in terms of cost in the active duty and VA personnel:

  • Tinnitus;
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder;
  • Sleep regulation; and
  • Pain (headache) relief.

On April 26, 2014, NHC, as cooperator, entered into Notice of Modification No. 1 of Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (the "Amended CRADA") with ANR, as the background patent owner, Yuri Danilov, Mitchell Tyler and Kurt Kaczmarek, as the inventors, and the USAMMA and the USAMMDA, whereby NHC will no longer provide expertise and training in the design of clinical study protocols or for U.S. Army and/or Veterans Affairs personnel in the physical therapy interventions required for clinical studies. In addition, pursuant to the Amended CRADA, ANR will share all data with USAMMA and NHC will provide all data supporting clinical claims for regulatory approval. Furthermore, USAMMDA agreed to provide regulatory support as agreed upon for unregulated studies and the associated budgets and funding reimbursement will be reviewed and agreed upon between USAMMA and USAMMDA.

Market

NeuroSigma, Inc

NeuroSigma, Inc., a California-based medical device company, recently announced the publication of a positive Phase II clinical study for the use of external Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (eTNS(TM)) for the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy as well as depression, PTSD, ADHD and other disorders.  The NeuroSigma's device has two components, external electrical patches that are placed on the forehead and a pulse generator. NeuroSigma is also working on a subcutaneous approach. If a patient responds positively to the externally placed patch approach, NeuroSigma is proposing that the patient could move to a minimally invasive approach. The external system is currently being marketed in the European Union for Drug resistant epilepsy (DRE), which is a serious medical disorder and affects approximately 30% of the estimated 50 million people with epilepsy worldwide. NeuroSigma has completed its Pre-Investigational Device Exemption (Pre-IDE) meeting with the FDA and is preparing to submit its IDE application. In September 2012, NeuroSigma received CE Mark approval for the adjunctive treatment of epilepsy and major depressive disorder, for adults and children 9 years and older. NHC is encouraged by NeuroSigma's work in that it further validates the safety and efficacy of non-invasive neuromodulation therapy in one of the more complex disease states.

Cefaly

Cefaly is a Belgian company that has released a cutaneous neuro stimulator. The stimulator received FDA approval in the U.S. and it has a CE approval in the E.U.

Neurostimulation of the trigeminal nerve with Cefaly produces a sedative effect. Regular repetition of this sedative effect helps reduce the number of attacks of migraine.

Though using electrical stimulation of the brain as a means of treating migraines provides an alternative to over-the-counter medication. Cefaly, a battery-operated headband, has now been approved by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) and is claimed to not only treat migraines, but possibly prevent them altogether.

For treatment during a migraine, Cefaly uses high-frequency neurostimulation, which limits the pain signals from the nerve center. For preventative use, intended for regular sufferers, Cefaly uses low-frequency stimulation to change the migraine's trigger threshold, making it harder to reach and the headaches less painful, or causing them to disappear entirely.

According to the company, users can expect to feel a light sensation when wearing the headband, though it says the dose of electromagnetic waves is weaker than you receive when watching television.

For preventative use, Cefaly is intended to be worn for 20-minute sessions. Pressing a button will begin the session, with the intensity and tingling gradually increasing as time progresses. The idea is to build up a tolerance to the sensation and, in effect, the migraine threshold in your brain, though if the sensations do become too much, pressing the button again will reduce the intensity.

Competitive Advantages of NHC

The combined independent clinical research and product development work by NHC, Cyberonics and NeuroSigma is significant in the field of neuromodulation and is foundational as neuromodulation becomes an accepted means of neurological therapy. As mentioned previously, NHC is targeting the trigeminal and facial nerves versus the vagus nerve and rather than stimulating the trigeminal nerve on the forehead (upper branch), the NHC device stimulates the trigeminal nerve in the tongue (lower branch), which is key for the following reasons:

-41-


1)     The trigeminal and facial nerves are the largest cranial nerves, offering a high-bandwidth pathway for signals to enter the brain.
2)     The trigeminal nerve projects to specific areas of the brain, such as the brainstem (trigeminal and solitary nuclei) and cerebellum, basal ganglia, thalamus and the cerebral cortex.
3)     The tongue is the anatomically unique, highly sensitive and receptors-reach skin surface in the human body directly linked to the brain by at least two cranial nerves.
4)     Unlike Cyberonics the NHC device delivers bilateral therapy.
5)     The PoNS(TM) device delivers effective and powerful neuro modulation non-invasively.

These five factors make NCH's device and approach unique and represent the driving factors behind the PoNS(TM) device competitive advantage for non-invasive neuromodulation therapy.

NHC's Market

NHC has established its selling price at $2,500 for the PoNSTM device which will include the controller and electronic tongue array and lanyard, belt clip and arm band. The cost of producing the device as packaged is estimated $150/unit. The replaceable electrode array is expected to sell for $100 cost of producing is anticipated to be $25.

Pricing sensitivity research has not been completed but we anticipate this price reflects the premium to be paid for the first non-invasive therapy for neurological disorders.

NHC plans to submit an application to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for an ICD 10 reimbursement code so that the device is covered under Medicare and Medicaid. NHC also plans to seek coverage from private insurance plans.

The PoNS(TM) 4.0 device is expected to have a design feature that stops delivering therapy every 14 weeks. This is expected to force patients to return to their physician or PTC for assessment of their progress and reestablishment of challenging physical therapy to achieve higher goals. At this time the device is expected to be inspected visually by the physical therapist, reset for another 14 weeks of treatment and the tongue array is expected to be replaced by a new one to ensure no degradation of the electrodes occurs. This business model feature is expected to ensure proper support for patients in the early phase of their therapy.

The key to the business success of NHC is to set up a national framework of PoNS(TM) accredited Physical Therapy Centers ("PTC"). We plan to seek partnership with one or more national PTC companies (there are three national companies). This partnership is expected to include an agreement where all PTCs become accredited PoNS(TM) therapy centers. This accreditation is expected to come from NHC. There is expected to be strong financial incentive for the PTC companies to partner because PoNS(TM) training offers substantial opportunity for growth for the PTCs. We anticipate that PTCs will be able to use existing reimbursement codes for the physical therapy portion of the therapy. NHC plans to apply for reimbursement codes for the PoNS(TM) device.

We expect physicians will be informed to prescribe both the PoNS(TM) and the "local" accredited PTC for their patients to receive the PoNS(TM) device and their training. A PoNS(TM) website and smart phone application is expected to help physicians select the appropriate PTC convenient for the patient.

Upon discharge from the PTC, patients are expected to be monitored in their home therapy from a PTC phone center (set up by NHC through select PTCs) who plan to help the patients be compliant and ensure the therapy is performed appropriately. At the end of the 14 weeks of therapy we expect patients to be

-42-


directed back to their physician for assessment and then return to the Accredited PTC for replacement of the tongue array.

Deployment

The U.S. Armed Forces is expected to be deploying the device through their rehabilitation centers under orders from the central medical command. All personnel are expected to be certified PoNS(TM) trainers supported by live, paper and video based training materials developed through this project by the U.S. Armed Forces.

NHC has approached the Canadian Armed Forces to discuss their support of a similar program in Canada and discussions are ongoing. We also intend to pursue other military organizations in relevant countries based on need and size of potential deployment.

NHC expects to be able to leverage the equity of the deployment of the device in the U.S. Armed Forces in its marketing of the PoNS(TM) device to the civilian population.

PoNS(TM) in Civilian Population

NHC plans to concentrate its efforts in the U.S. and Canadian marketplaces as first launch markets. It is unclear as of yet which of these two markets will launch first primarily due to the relative speed of the regulatory process. NHC then intends to commercialize the PoNS(TM) device in Europe and Japan as second phase countries (2017) and Brazil, Russia, India and China as Phase III countries (2018).

Going Concern

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills.

However, subsequent to our period from inception (March 13, 2014) to March 31, 2014, we completed a non-brokered private placement financing of CDN$7.62 million, which funds have been released from escrow and we believe such funds are sufficient to maintain our operations for at least the next 12 months.

Employees

As of the closing of the Transaction, we now have a total of 1 employee who is full-time and NHC, our wholly owned subsidiary, has 1 employee who is full-time. None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We experienced no work stoppages and believe that we have good relations with our employees.

Subsidiaries

We have two wholly-owned subsidiaries: 0995162 B.C. Ltd., which is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, and NeuroHabilitation Corporation ("NHC"), which is incorporated in the State of Delaware.

Patents

The PoNSTM device intellectual property is the subject of U.S. Patent Application 12/348301 of which was initially filed on April 1, 2009 by the inventors, Kurt Kaczmarek, Yuri Danilov and Mitchell Tyler, and Provisional Patent Application 61/019,061 which was initially filed on January 4, 2008. NHC's applications includes one XYZ claim and 22 method claims, which covers a device in the form of a mouth piece that non-invasively delivers neurostimulation to the brain stem via the trigeminal nerve. We expect final adjudication of the patents in the fall of 2014.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

This prospectus includes (i) our audited financial statements for the period from inception (March 13, 2014) to March 31, 2014, (ii) the audited financial statements of NHC for the year ended March 31, 2014, for the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2013 and for the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2014, and (iii) the unaudited pro-forma financial information for the year ended March 31, 2014. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. dollars.

 

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We effected the acquisition of NHC pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger whereby HMT Mergersub, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, was merged with and into NHC and all of the common shares in the capital of NHC were cancelled in consideration for the issuance of an aggregate of 35,300,083 shares of our common stock to the NHC shareholders. The Transaction was effective on June 13, 2014, pursuant to which the identity and separate corporate existence of HMT Mergersub, Inc. ceased and NHC became the surviving corporation in the merger and our wholly-owned subsidiary.

The closing of the acquisition of NHC represented a change in control of our Company. For accounting purposes, this change of control constitutes a re-capitalization of the Company, and the acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse merger whereby we, as the legal acquirer, are treated as the acquired entity, and NHC, as the legal subsidiary, is treated as the acquiring company with the continuing obligations.

Prior to the acquisition of NHC we had no active business or operations. Therefore, the following discussion will only focus on NHC.

The following discussion of NHC's financial condition, changes in financial condition, plan of operations and results of operations should be read in conjunction with (i) the audited financial statements of NHC for the year ended March 31, 2014 and for the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2013 and the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2014, (ii) the unaudited pro-forma financial information for the year ended March 31, 2014, and (iii) the section entitled "Business", included in this prospectus. The discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2014 Compared to the Period From Inception to March 31, 2013

Revenues

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and the period from inception to March 31, 2013, NHC did not generate any revenues.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses incurred during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 were $1,067,284 as compared to $8,517,850 during the period from inception to March 31, 2013. Significant changes and expenditures are outlined as follows:

  • Consulting fees were $807,385 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and $2,800 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The increase of $804,585 was mainly due to the expense in 2014 associated with the granting of options to consultants for providing services in design and manufacturing and strategic growth plan, which were subsequently exercised.

-47-


  • Interest expenses were $1,344 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to Nil for the period from inception to March 31, 2013.
  • Legal fees were $33,966 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $14,192 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The increase of $19,774 was mainly due to legal fees associated with patent applications and general corporate matters.
  • Meals and entertainment expenses were $833 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to Nil for the period from inception to March 31, 2013.
  • Office expenses were $6,793 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $482 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The increase of $6,311 was mainly due to the increased number of activities of the operation and engagement of a part-time office assistant.
  • Research and development expenses were $171,781 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $4,250,000 for the period from inception to March 31, 2014.
  • Compensation expenses for shares issued for services was Nil for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $4,250,000 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The decrease of $4,250,000 was a result of not issuing any shares for as compensation for services rendered during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.
  • Travel expenses were $22,027 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $376 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The increase of $21,651 was mainly due to the required traveling of the CEO as NHC was actively seeking for external financing and interviewing external parties in preparation of the research and development activities.
  • Wages and salaries expenses were $23,155 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to Nil for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The increase of $23,155 was due to the new employment contract with the CEO.

Net Loss

The net loss was $1,067,284 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and $8,517,850 for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. The decrease in net loss of $7,450,566 resulted primarily from a decrease in research and development expenses and compensation expenses for shares issued for services, which was offset somewhat by an increase in consulting fees, legal fees, travel expenses and wages and salaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

NHC's financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

The following table sets out NHC's cash and working capital as of March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013:

As at March 31, 2014, NHC's current assets were $315,968 and current liabilities were $583,945 resulting in a working capital deficit of $267,977. NHC's current assets as at March 31, 2014 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $15,968 and prepaid expenses of $300,000. NHC's current liabilities as at March 31, 2013 consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $215,921 and convertible debentures of $368,024.

As at March 31, 2013, NHC's current assets were $217 and current liabilities were $8,067 resulting in a working capital deficit of $7,850. NHC's current assets as at March 31, 2013 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $217. NHC's current liabilities as at March 31, 2013 consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $5,836 and short term loan of $2,231.

Deficit accumulated since inception increased from ($8,517,850) as at March 31, 2013 to ($9,585,134) as at March 31, 2014.

NHC has not yet put the PoNSTM device into commercial production, and therefore, has no operating revenues. Accordingly, NHC is dependent on equity and debt financing as its sole source of operating working capital. NHC's capital resources are largely determined by the strength of the markets and its ability to compete for the investor support of its projects.

NHC will have to continue to rely on equity and debt financing. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will always be available to us in the amount required at any particular time or for any particular period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms satisfactory to us.

stock options exercisable at $0.005 per option for 10 years. The estimated remaining costs to be incurred in the future under the contract are $100,000 and will be paid in cash.

Statement of Cashflows

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, NHC's net cash increased by $15,751, which included net cash used in operating activities of ($350,929), net cash used in investing activities of Nil and net cash provided by financing activities of $366,680.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Operating activities in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 used cash of ($350,929) compared to ($9,783) for the period from inception to March 31, 2013. This was made up of a net loss of $1,067,284 (2013 - $8,517,850) less adjustments for non-cash items such as: accreted interest of $1,344 (2013 - Nil), consulting expenses of $807,157 (2013 - Nil), and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $210,085 (2013 - $5,836). NHC used $302,231 (2013 - Nil) in changes in operating assets and liabilities. The most significant item was $300,000 used to prepay Ximedica with respect to the commercial development-to-supply program.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, $366,680 was received from proceeds of a convertible debenture.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Subsequent Events

In April 2014, NHC issued 201,436 shares pursuant to the exercise of options.

On May 27, 2014, NHC entered into a rental agreement for office space. The monthly rent is $3,896. The agreement expires on May 31, 2015.

On June 4, 2014, NHC entered into an amendment letter for the convertible debenture. Pursuant to the amendment letter, if any qualified financing being an aggregate amount of at least $2,000,000 occurs, the principal amount of the debenture shall be automatically converted into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to CDN $0.425. For the avoidance of doubt, upon conversion of the debenture, we will issue a total of 2,564,705 shares of common stock and we will pay $11,131 in cash with respect to the accrued and unpaid interest outstanding.

On June 6, 2014, NHC entered into a definitive agreement with us where we acquired 100% of the outstanding and issued shares of NHC by issuing 16.035 shares of our common stock for every common stock outstanding of NHC. As a result, NHC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of us. Under certain conditions, termination of the agreement could result in a break fee payable of $500,000 by either of the parties. In connection with the acquisition, we conducted a non-brokered private placement at CDN$0.50 per unit of 15,240,000 units raising CDN $7.62 million, which is currently was held in escrow pending the close of the acquisition and a listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"). Each unit consists of one share of our common stock and one-half of one warrant of us where one full warrant is exercisable for 2 years at CDN$1.00 into one share of our common stock.

-50-


In connection with the agreement and plan of merger with NHC, we advanced an unsecured loan in the amount of $150,000 (the "Bridge Loan") to NHC. The Bridge Loan is for a term of one year commencing on May 30, 2014, and is payable in a lump sum at the end of the term. The Bridge Loan bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). This preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. US GAAP provides the framework from which to make these estimates, assumption and disclosures. We choose accounting policies within US GAAP that management believes are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial position in a consistent manner. Management regularly assesses these policies in light of current and forecasted economic conditions. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements, we believe the critical accounting policies involving the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments are: valuation of non-monetary transactions, stock compensation for services, valuation of options and valuation of income taxes.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they are either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Financial Instruments and other risks

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, short-term loan and convertible debenture, of which only cash and cash equivalents is carried at fair value.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The financial instrument which potentially subjects us to concentration of credit risk is cash. We placed our cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. As of March 31, 2014, we had Nil in a bank beyond the insured limit (March 31, 2013 - Nil).

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

We have had no disagreements with our independent registered public accountants with respect to accounting practices or procedures or financial disclosure.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. as of March 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from inception on March 13, 2014 to March 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency. These matters, along with the other matters set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1.     NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. (formerly known as 0996445 B.C. Ltd.) ("Helius" or the "Company") was incorporated in British Columbia, Canada, on March 13, 2014. The Company is engaged primarily in the business of medical technology industry. On May 28, 2014, the Company completed a continuation via a plan of arrangement whereby the Company moved from being a corporation governed by the British Columbia Corporations Act to a corporation governed by the Wyoming Business Corporations Act. The Company's head office is located at 1500-1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4N7, Canada.

The financial information is presented in United States Dollars and the functional currency of the Company is the Canadian Dollar.

The Company has not incurred any revenue or expenses since inception and, as of March 31, 2014, the Company has a working capital of $9 and an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $nil. Until the Company generates a level of revenue to support its cost structure, the Company expects to continue to incur substantial operating losses and net cash outflows. While the Company had cash of $9 as of March 31, 2014, management does not believe these resources will be sufficient to meet the Company's operating and capital needs through 2015.

The Company intends to fund ongoing activities by utilizing current cash and cash equivalents and by raising additional capital though equity or debt financings. The Company is in the process of negotiating certain agreements subsequent to March 31, 2014, to raise additional capital as detailed in Note 4. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or that such capital, if available, will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be compelled to reduce the scope of its operations and planned capital expenditures or sell certain assets, including intellectual property.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is currently seeking for additional financing subsequent to year end. See Note 4. However, given the Company's current cash and cash equivalents balance and the Company's planned operating activities, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Even if the Company is able to raise additional capital, the Company may never become profitable, or if the Company does attain profitable operations, the Company may not be able to sustain profitability and positive cash flows on a recurring basis.

2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Company's annual financial statements have been presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") that are published at the time of preparation and that are effective on March 31, 2014.

Development Stage

The Company is considered a "development stage" entity, as it has not yet generated revenues from the sale of products. The Company has been researching and developing new technologies and product applications. The Company will continue as a development stage entity, including reporting "inception to-date" amounts and cumulative equity transactions, until such time, if any, as the Company generates revenue, and commences its planned principal operations.

(A development stage company)
Notes to Financial Statements for the period ended March 31, 2014
(Expressed in United States Dollars)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. Financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and the revision affects both the current and future periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. As at March 31, 2014, the Company does not have such investments. Cash and cash equivalents as at March 31, 2014 only include cash.

Patents

Costs related to patent development, filing, and maintenance are expensed as incurred since the underlying technology associated with these assets is purchased or incurred in connection with our research and development efforts and the future realizable value cannot be determined.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The financial instrument which potentially subjects the Company to concentration of credit risk is cash. The Company placed its cash and cash equivalent with high credit quality financial institution. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $nil in a bank beyond the insured limits.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs include business development, and consulting and legal services.

Income Taxes

The Company has adopted ASC 740, "Income Taxes", which requires the Company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Due to the limited nature of the Company's operations as at March 31, 2014, no current and deferred income tax disclosure has been presented as it is considered immaterial.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value method of accounting for all stock option awards, whereby the Company recognizes a compensation expense for all stock options awarded to employees, officers and consultants based on the fair value of the options on the date of grant, which is determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The options are expensed over the vesting period of the options.

Foreign Exchange

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian Dollar as this is the principal currency of the economic environment in which the Company operates. The presentation currency is the United States Dollar.

Non-monetary items, revenue and expenses that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Any monetary assets and liabilities that are in a different functional currency are translated at the rate prevailing at year end.

Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rate and revenues and expenses are translated by using the average exchange rate. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustment and are shown as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) in the statements of stockholders' equity (deficiency).

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares for the period, without consideration for common share equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method and the if-converted method, as applicable.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

All financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and designated upon inception into one of the following categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, loans and receivables or at held for trading.

Financial assets classified as held for trading are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized through profit and loss. Available-for-sale instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Held-to-maturity instruments, loans and receivables and other financial liabilities and loss are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Cash has been classified as held for trading.

The Company has implemented the following classifications for its financial instruments:

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value;

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

Cash is measured using Level 1 inputs.

Authorized:

Unlimited Class A common shares without par value
Unlimited Class B common shares without par value
Unlimited Class A preferred shares without par value

On March 13, 2014, the Company issued a total of 10 common shares to Boomerang Oil, Inc. (formerly known as 0922327 B.C. Ltd) for a total consideration of $9.

4.     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On March 25, 2014 and amended on April 8, 2014 the Company entered into an arrangement agreement ("Arrangement") with Boomerang Oil, Inc. (formerly known as 0922327 B.C. Ltd) ("Pubco") and 0995162 B.C. Ltd. ("Buyco") to reorganize the businesses by way of a plan of arrangement ("Plan of Arrangement"). Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, the following steps should be taken:

1.     Buyco shall acquire all issued and outstanding shares of the Company from Pubco for consideration of $5,000;

2.     The shareholders of Buyco and the Company shall exchange securities on a 1:1 basis;

3.     Pubco and the Company shall exchange securities as follows: Pubco shall issue the Pubco Exchange Shares to the Company and the Company shall issue the Company Exchange Shares to Pubco;

4.     The Pubco Exchange Shares and the Company Exchange Shares shall be cancelled.

The Arrangement was completed on April 15, 2014.

On April 16, 2014, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with its sole director for service related to strategic planning and business development. The term of the agreement is for 45 days expiring on May 31, 2014 with a fee of $2,500 per every 15 days.

On June 6, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Neurohabilitation Corporation ("Neuro") where the Company issued 16.035 shares for every common stock outstanding of Neuro (the "Acquisition"). As a result, Neuro became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Under certain conditions, termination of the agreement could result in a break fee payable of $500,000 by either of the parties. In connection to the Acquisition, the Company is conducting a non-brokered private placement at CAD $0.50 per unit of 15,240,000 units raising up to CAD $7.62 million, which is currently held in escrow pending the close of the acquisition and a listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"). Each unit consists of one common share of the Company and one half of a warrant of the Company where one full warrant is exercisable for 2 years at CAD $1.00 into one common stock.

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company has advanced Neuro an unsecured loan in the amount of $150,000 (the "Bridge Loan"). The Bridge Loan is for a term of one year commencing on May 30, 2014, and is payable in a lump sum at the end of the term. The Bridge Loan bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of the financial statements. The Company is not aware of any additional significant subsequent events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date, but prior to the date of issuance that would have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Directors of
NeuroHabilitation Corporation (A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of NeuroHabilitation Corporation (the "Company"), which comprise the balance sheets of NeuroHabilitation Corporation as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of loss and comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2014, the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2013 and the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NeuroHabilitation Corporation as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2014, the period from inception on January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2013 and the period from January 22, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1.     NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

NeuroHabilitation Corp. ("NHC" or the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware, USA, on January 22, 2013. The Company is engaged primarily in the business of developing a patent-pending technology ("PoNSTM") that will enable the first non-invasive means for delivering neurostimulation through the oral cavity. The Company's head office is located at 12 Penns Trail, Newtown PA 18940.

The financial information is presented in United States Dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company.

The Company has experienced recurring losses since inception and, as of March 31, 2014, the Company has negative working capital as at March 31, 2014 of $267,977 (March 31, 2013 - $7,850) and an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $9,585,134 (March 31, 2013 - $8,517,850). Until the Company generates a level of revenue to support its cost structure, the Company expects to continue to incur substantial operating losses and net cash outflows. While the Company had cash of $15,968 as of March 31, 2014 (March 31, 2013 - $217), management does not believe these resources will be sufficient to meet the Company's operating and capital needs through 2015.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

3.      SHORT TERM LOAN

On December 9, 2013, the Company entered into a formal loan agreement with MPJ Healthcare LLC, a shareholder of the Company, to borrow up to $40,000. Expenses incurred on behalf of the Company were charged as drawdowns of this loan. During the year ended March 31, 2014, $29,107 was repaid, being expenses incurred of $26,875 for March 31, 2014 and $2,231 for March 31, 2013. The interest rate is 3% per annum. For the year ended March 31, 2014, an interest expense of $225 was recorded (March 31, 2013 - $nil).

On February 19, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement where the Company agreed to sell and issue a note in a principal amount of up to $1,000,000 with annual simple interest at 8%. As at March 31, 2014, $366,905 had been received and $633,095 was received subsequently. The debenture matures on the earliest of (i) February 28, 2015 or such later date as agreed (ii) the closing of a transaction involving a change in control of the Company or (iii) the date of the closing of the Company's qualified financing being an aggregate amount of at least $2,000,000.

Upon completion of a qualified financing, the debenture shall automatically convert into equity securities of the Company at a price per share equal to 85% of the price per share of the qualified financing. If a qualified financing does not occur on or before the maturity date, at the option of the Company's board of directors, the outstanding balance of the debenture shall be converted into the Company's equity securities at a conversion price per common stock determined using a valuation of $8.5 million and the number of shares outstanding at that date.

In the event of a change in control of the Company, the Company shall pay the outstanding amount and an amount equal to 50% of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture in cancellation of the debenture.

The contingent conversion on completion of a qualified financing gives rise to a contingent beneficial conversion feature which will be calculated and adjusted if necessary on settlement of the contingency. There are no other beneficial conversion features or significant items that should be accounted for separately.

As of March 31, 2014, the outstanding balance is $366,905 (March 31, 2013 - $nil) with interest of $1,119 (March 31, 2013 - $nil).

The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of share options that have no vesting provisions and are fully transferable. Also, option-pricing models require the use of estimates and assumptions including the expected volatility. The Company uses expected volatility rates which are based upon the average volatility rates of other companies in the same industry, due to the Company's limited history. The Company based the current stock price on the value per shares issued to date. Changes in the underlying assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates.

The Company does not have any share purchase warrants outstanding for the years ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in United States dollars)
March 31, 2014

1.       Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of inclusion in the listing statement in connection with the acquisition of NeuroHabilitation Corporation ("NHC") by Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. ("Helius" or the "Company") through a stock exchange of 100% of NHC's capital stock ("Transaction").

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Helius in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") to give effect to the transactions and assumptions described in the notes. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet has been prepared assuming the Transaction had occurred on March 31, 2014 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss has been prepared assuming the transaction occurred on the first day of the period presented

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the description of the transaction in this listing statement and are derived from the followings:

a)     the audited financial statements of Helius as at March 31, 2014; and

b)     the audited financial statements of NHC as at March 31, 2014

The underlying assumptions for the pro forma consolidated adjustments provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant financial effects directly attributable to such transactions. These pro forma adjustments are tentative and are based on available financial information and certain estimates and assumptions. The actual adjustments to the consolidated financial statements of the Company will depend on a number of factors. Therefore, the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments. Management believes that such assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the transactions contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.

The accounting policies used in preparation of the unaudited consolidated pro-forma financial statements are consistent in all material respects with those used by the Company as described in Note 2 to its audited financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2014.

2.     Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet Assumptions and Adjustments

a)     The Proposed Transaction

Pursuant to the Transaction, Helius has entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger with NHC, whereby Helius will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of NHC. In exchange, Helius will issue a total of 35,300,083 shares to the shareholders of NHC of which will merge with a wholly owned subsidiary of Helius, HMT Mergersub, organized pursuant to the laws of Delaware.

Although the Transaction will result in NHC becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Helius, the Transaction will constitute a Reverse Takeover of Helius as the former NHC Shareholders will own the majority of the outstanding shares of Helius upon completion of the Proposed Transaction. In accordance with US GAAP, this transaction is considered to be a capital transaction and the difference between the purchase price and the net assets acquired is charged directly to equity.

F-25


Helius Medical Technologies, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in United States dollars)
March 31, 2014

The consideration paid by NHC to acquire the Company is estimated at $5,000,000, being the estimated fair value of the shares exchanged. The net assets acquired of Helius are $206,497, resulting in a net charge to deficit of $(4,793,503).

In connection with the Transaction, Helius will complete a financing of up to 15,240,000 units at CAD $0.50 per unit ("Concurrent Financing") for total proceeds of $7,015,734 (CAD $7,620,000). Each unit will consist of one Helius share and one half of one Helius warrant. The finder's fee will consist of 6% cash $420,944 (CAD $457,200) and 6% warrants (914,400 warrants). Proceeds were allocated among common shares and warrants based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the warrants was $1,276,223 (CAD $1,386,144) and determined using a Black Scholes model using the following weighted average assumptions:

b)     Transaction costs

The incremental management and administrative costs of the Corporation for the above related offering and acquisition, including audit fees, legal fees, finder's fee for the Concurrent Financing and any costs associated with regulatory filings have been estimated to be $276,210 (CAD $300,000) which is deemed to be incurred and expensed as transaction costs.

c)     With respect to the Concurrent Financing, the Company agreed to pay finder's fees equal to 6% cash and 6% warrants on gross proceeds of the financing. The fair value of the warrants of $187,200 (CAD $203,324) was determined using a Black Scholes model using the following weighted average assumptions:

d)     On March 25, 2014 and amended on April 8, 2014 Helius entered into an arrangement agreement ("Arrangement") with Boomerang Oil, Inc. (formerly known as 0922327 B.C. Ltd) ("Pubco") and 0995162 B.C. Ltd. ("Buyco") to reorganize the businesses by way of a plan of arrangement ("Plan of Arrangement"). Pursuant to the Arrangement, the following steps should be taken:

4.     Buyco shall acquire all issued and outstanding shares of the Company from Pubco for consideration of $5,000;

5.     The shareholders of Buyco and the Company shall exchange securities on a 1:1 basis;

6.     Pubco and the Company shall exchange securities as follows: Pubco shall issue the Pubco Exchange Shares to the Company and the Company shall issue the Company Exchange Shares to Pubco;

7.     The Pubco Exchange Shares and the Company Exchange Shares shall be cancelled.

8.     Shares of Helius owned by Buyco shall be cancelled.

Pursuant to this Transaction, Helius acquired $230,184 of net assets from Buyco.

e)     On June 3, 2014, Helius agreed to advance NHC a bridge loan in the amount of US $150,000 in connection with the proposed acquisition. The bridge loan is for a term of one year commencing on the date of advance and is payable in a lump sum at the end of the term. The bridge loan bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum.

Wyoming Business Corporation Act

The WBCA, provides that a corporation shall indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any the defense to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.

The WBCA provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to the WBCA; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

The WBCA provides that except as otherwise provided by specific statute, no director or officer of a corporation is individually liable for a debt or liability of the corporation, unless the director or officer acts as the alter ego of the corporation. The court as a matter of law must determine the question of whether a director or officer acts as the alter ego of a corporation.

Our Bylaws

Our Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify a director as required by the mandatory indemnification provisions of the Act, to the extent applicable, and as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation.

ITEM 15.      RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

On May 30, 2014, we closed a private placement consisting of 15,240,000 subscription receipts at a price of CDN$0.50 per subscription receipt for gross proceeds of CDN$7,620,000. On June 13, 2014, each subscription receipt automatically converted, for no additional consideration, into one common share of Helius and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional share of our common stock at a price of CDN$1.00 until May 30, 2016. We relied on exemptions from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Section 4(a)(2) for US purchasers as well as Regulation S for Canadian and offshore purchasers, based on representations and warranties provided by the purchasers of the subscription receipts in their respective subscription agreements entered into between us and each purchaser.

II-2


In connection with the May 30, 2014 private placement, we paid finder's fees of CDN$412,200 in cash and 824,400 finder's warrants (each, a "Finder's Warrant") in aggregate to five entities in British Columbia, Canada and one entity in Nevis, West Indies. The Finder's Warrants have the same attributes as the Warrants. We relied on the exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act provided by Regulation S for the issuance of the Finder's Warrants to each finder.

On June 13, 2014, we acquired a 100% interest in NHC, as discussed above, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger whereby our wholly-owned subsidiary was merged with and into NHC and all of the common shares in the capital of NHC were cancelled in consideration for the issuance of an aggregate of 35,300,083 shares of our common stock to the NHC shareholders. We relied on the exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) for the issuance of shares of our common stock to the NHC shareholders.

ITEM 17     UNDERTAKINGS

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that it will:

1.     File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(a)      Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(b)     Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

(c)     Include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

2.     For determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.     Remove from registration by means of a post-effective registration statement any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

b.     Each holder of a Class B Common Share shall be entitled to receive notice of and attend any meetings of shareholders of the Company but shall not be entitled to vote at any such meeting except as required by the Act.

c.     Subject to the rights of the holders of any class of Preferred Shares, the holders of the Class A Common Shares and Class B Common Shares shall, in the absolute discretion of the board of directors, be entitled to receive dividends as and when declared by the directors out of monies of the Company properly applicable to the payment of dividends.

d.     The board of directors may, in their absolute discretion, pay dividends on the Class A Common Shares to the exclusion of the Class B Common Shares and vice versa.

e.     Subject to the rights of the holders of any class of Preferred Shares, in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or other distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs or upon a reduction of capital the holders of the Class A Common Shares and Class B Common Shares shall, after payment has been made to the holders of any class of Preferred Shares and after share equally, share for share, in the remaining assets and property of the Company.

2.     CLASS A PREFERRED SHARES- SPECIAL RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS

a.     Each holder of a Class A Preferred Share shall be entitled to receive notice of and attend any meetings of shareholders of the Company but shall not be entitled to vote at any such meeting except as required by the Act.


b.     Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Company may at any time or times at the discretion of the board of directors redeem all or any of the Class A Preferred Shares by paying to the registered holder the redemption amount (the "Redemption Amount") thereof together with all declared but unpaid dividends thereon.

c.     Upon the issue of any Class A Preferred Shares, the board of directors shall determine the fair market value (the "FMV") of the consideration received by the Company in respect of that share, including, without restricting the generality of the foregoing, any consideration credited by the Company to any contributed surplus account (the "Consideration").

d.     In determining the FMV of the Consideration, the board of directors shall act in good faith and may act on whatever advice or evidence they deem necessary or advisable. The directors shall evidence their determination by a resolution in writing (the "Agreed Value").

e.     The Redemption Amount of each Class A Preferred Share shall equal the Agreed Value of the Consideration received in respect of the issuance of that share.

f.     If the Internal Revenue Service or any similar authority shall assess or reassess the Company or its shareholders for income tax purposes or propose such an assessment or reassessment on the basis of a determination or assumption that the FMV of the Consideration received in respect of the issuance of any Class A Preferred Shares does not equal the Agreed Value, the following adjustments shall be made:

i.     for the purposes of the adjustments hereunder the FMV of the Consideration received shall be deemed to be:

(a)     subject to clause (i)(c), the FMV of the Consideration as determined by the authority making or proposing such an assessment or reassessment, provided that the board of directors agree that that determination is accurate; or

(b)     subject to clause (i)(c), where the board of directors do not agree that the authority's determination is accurate, the FMV of the Consideration as determined by a qualified person whom the board of directors shall appoint to make that determination forthwith following the making or proposing of such an assessment or reassessment; or

(c)     where any such assessment or reassessment is the subject of an appeal to a court of competent jurisdiction, the FMV of the Consideration as determined by that court.


ii.     If the FMV determined pursuant to paragraph (i) is less than the Agreed Value, the following adjustments shall be made forthwith following such determination to account for that deficiency:

(a)     If at the date of adjustment the Class A Preferred Share is issued and outstanding and still held by the original holder thereof, its Redemption Amount shall be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of the deficiency and the amount by which the Redemption Amount of the share exceeds its par value and the Redemption Amount so adjusted shall be deemed retroactively to the date of issue of the share to have been its Redemption Amount; and

(b)     If the reduction made pursuant to clause (ii)(a) is less than the total deficiency, the Redemption Amount of such other Preferred Shares of that class held by that original holder at the date of adjustment as may be selected by him shall be reduced by an amount equal to such portion of the deficiency as that original holder may determine and the Redemption Amount of such share so adjusted shall be deemed retroactively to the date of issue of that share to have been its Redemption Amount; and

(c)     If the aggregate reduction made pursuant to clauses (ii)(a) and (ii)(b) is less than the total deficiency, the original holder shall make a contribution of capital to the Company equal to the balance of the deficiency.

iii.     If the FMV determined pursuant to paragraph (i) is greater than the Agreed Value, the following adjustments shall be made forthwith following such determination to account for that excess:

(a)     If at the date of adjustment the share remains issued and outstanding and held by the original holder thereof, the Redemption Amount of that share shall be increased by the amount of the excess and the Redemption Amount so adjusted shall be deemed retroactively to the date of issue of the share to have been its Redemption Amount; and


(b)     In any other case, the Redemption Amount of any other Preferred Shares of that class held by that original holder at the date of adjustment shall be increased by an amount equal to the excess divided by the number of Class A Preferred Shares held by the original holder at the date of adjustment and the Redemption Amount of each such share shall be deemed retroactively to the date of its issue to have been its Redemption Amount; and

(c)     If no Preferred Shares of that class are held by the original holder at the date of adjustment the directors shall issue to him Preferred Shares of that class having an aggregate Redemption Amount equal to the amount of the excess.

g.     Subject to the provisions of the Act:

i.     Each holder of Class A Preferred Share may at any time demand that the Company redeem all or any part of the Class A Preferred Shares held by him by payment to him of the Redemption Amount thereof and all declared but unpaid dividends thereon.

ii.     Such demand for redemption shall be made in writing, signed by the holder demanding redemption and shall be delivered or mailed to the registered office of the Company and shall be deemed to have been received on the day of delivery if delivered and on the business day following the day of mailing if mailed.

iii.     Forthwith upon receipt of a demand for redemption the Company shall deliver or mail a copy thereof to all other holders, if any, of the Class A Preferred Shares and such copy shall be deemed to have been received on the day of delivery if delivered and on the business day following the day of mailing if mailed. The rationale for this mailing shall be to allow other holders of Class A Preferred Shares to submit demands for redemption.

iv.     If there is only one holder of the Class A Preferred Shares the Company shall redeem the Class A Preferred Shares forthwith upon receipt thereof. If there is more than one such holder, then on the 21st day following the last date of delivery or mailing of the copies referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Company shall redeem all the Class A Preferred Shares in respect of which it has then received demands for redemption provided that if the assets of the Company are not sufficient to redeem all of those shares the redemption shall be made pro rata in proportion to the number of the number of Preferred Shares specified in the demands received on or before that 21st day.

h.     Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Company may at any time or times at the discretion of the directors redeem all or any of the Class A Preferred Shares by paying to the registered holder the Redemption Amount thereof together with all declared but unpaid dividends thereon.


i.     The holders of the Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive arid the Company shall pay thereon if and when declared by the board of directors out of monies of the Company properly applicable to the payment of dividends fixed non-cumulative preferential dividends at the rate of 6% per annum on the par value thereof. Except that, if the Company is not a "small business corporation" (as defined at subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at any time during the year, such that section 74.4 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) applies to any holder of the Class A Preferred shares, then, at the discretion of the directors, dividends may be paid on the Class A Preferred shares out of all profits or surplus available for distribution, but such dividends shall not exceed the total of:

ii.     20129 of the Redemption Amount in the case of dividends paid as "eligible dividend(s)" (as defined at subsection 89(1) of the income Tax Act (Canada)) ("Eligible Dividends"); or

ii.     4/5 of the Redemption Amount in the case of dividends not paid as Eligible Dividends, multiplied by the prescribed rate at Regulation 4301(c) of the Income Tax Act (Canada). The holders of the Class A Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to any dividends other than the preferential dividends provided for herein.

j.     In the event of the liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, or return of capital of the Company, holders of Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive the Redemption Amount thereof and all dividends declared thereon and unpaid before any amount shall be paid or any property or asset of the Company distributed to the holders of any Common Shares. After payment to the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares of the amounts so payable to them as above provided, they shall not be entitled to share in any further distribution of the property or assets of the Company.

k.     The holders of the Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend any meetings of shareholders of the Company but shall not be entitled to vote at any such meetings except as required by the Act.

Article II.
Shareholders

2.1     ANNUAL MEETING. The annual meeting of the Shareholders shall be held once in every calendar year on such date and at such time and place as may be determined by the Board of Directors for the purpose of electing Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may come before the meeting in accordance with these Bylaws. If the day fixed for the annual meeting shall be a legal holiday, such meeting shall be held on the next succeeding business day. If the election of Directors shall not be held on the day designated herein for any annual meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of the Shareholders as soon thereafter as conveniently may be.

2.2     SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Shareholders may be called by the President, Chairman of the Board, the Board of Directors, or by the Shareholders holding at least five percent (5%) of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered


at the proposed special meeting by signing, either manually or in facsimile, dating and delivering to the Company's secretary one (1) or more written demands for the meeting describing the purpose or purposes for which it is to be held. The Board of Directors shall have the discretion to require that the issues for which a special meeting is demanded by Shareholder be considered instead at the next annual meeting if the demand for the special meeting is made within 180 days of the next annual meeting.

2.3     PLACE OF MEETING. The Board of Directors may designate any place, either within or outside the State of Wyoming, as the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting. It shall be the duty of the President to fix the time and place of any such meeting, and to give due notice thereof. If the President shall neglect or refuse to fix the place, time and date of such meeting and give notice thereof, the person or persons calling the meeting may do so. If no designation of place is made, or if a special meeting be otherwise called, the place of meeting shall be the principal office of the Company.

2.4     NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written or printed notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose for which the meeting is called, shall be given to each Shareholder of record having voting power with respect to the business to be transacted at such meeting, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the President, the Secretary, or the Board of Directors. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the mail in a sealed envelope addressed to the Shareholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Company, with postage thereon prepaid. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to shareholders, notice of meetings may be given to shareholders by means of electronic transmission in accordance with applicable law. Notice of any meeting need not be given to any shareholder who shall, either before or after the meeting, submit a waiver of notice or who shall attend such meeting, except when the shareholder attends for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

2.5     PURPOSE.

Notice of an annual meeting need not include a description of the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.

2.6     FIXING OF RECORD DATE. The Board of Directors of the Company may fix in advance a date, not exceeding sixty (60) and not less than ten (10) calendar days prior to the date of any meeting of Shareholders, or to the date for the payment of any dividend or for the allotment of rights, or to the date when any exchange or reclassification of shares shall be effective, as the record date for the determination of Shareholders entitled to notice of, or to vote at, such meeting, or Shareholders entitled to receive payment of any such dividend or to receive any such allotment of rights, or to exercise rights in respect of any exchange or reclassification of shares; and the Shareholders of record on such date shall be the Shareholders entitled to notice of

2


and to vote at, such meeting, or to receive payment of such dividend or to receive such allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights in the event of an exchange or reclassification of shares, as the case may be. If the transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed shall be deemed to be the record date for the determination of Shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting. Transferees of shares which are transferred after the record date shall not be entitled to notice of or to vote at such meeting. Only Shareholders on the record date fixed by this Section 2.6 are entitled to notice of and permitted to vote or to demand a special meeting or to take any other action, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the Company after any such record date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order that the Company may determine the Shareholders entitled to receive payment of any share dividend or other distribution from the Company or allotment of any rights or the Shareholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If not record date is fixed, the record date for determining Shareholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

In order to determine the Shareholders entitled to vote and take action without a meeting of the Shareholders, as provided in Section 2.14 of these Bylaws, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than twenty (20) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors.

Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any Shareholder during the whole time of the meeting.

2.8     QUORUM. Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares are present in person or by proxy with respect to that matter.

In the absence of a quorum at any meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days at any one adjournment without further notice. At such adjourned meeting, at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting, and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or shall be set for that adjourned meeting.

The Shareholders present or represented by proxy at an annual or special meeting at which a quorum is not present may take only the following actions: (i) with the consent of the officer presiding at the meeting, receive or hear any reports on the affairs of the Company that may be presented; (ii) within the constraints of the time allowed on the agenda, ask questions concerning the affairs of the Company; and (iii) adjourn the meeting as provided above in this Section 2.8.

If different quorums are required for different purposes at a meeting, the absence of a quorum on one purpose shall not affect the ability of the Shareholders at the meeting to act on other purposes where a quorum is present.

2.9     MANNER OF ACTING. At any Shareholder meeting at which a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote as a separate voting group shall be the act of the Shareholders.

2.10     PROXIES. At all meetings of Shareholders, a Shareholder may vote by proxy execute in writing, either manually or by facsimile, by the Shareholder or by his or her duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the Company not less than forty eight (48) hours before the time of the meeting, unless the Board of Directors fixes a different time by which proxies must be filed. Unless otherwise provided in the proxy, a proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted, either by written notice filed with the Secretary or the Acting Secretary of the meeting or by oral notice given by the Shareholder to the presiding officer during the meeting. The presence of a Shareholder who has filed his or her proxy shall not of itself constitute a revocation. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Appointments of proxies shall be in such form as shall be required by the Board and as set forth in the notice of meeting and/or proxy or information statement concerning such meeting. The proxies named in the Company's proxy statement shall have discretionary authority to vote at all meetings of shareholders as provided in Rule 14a-4(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as that rule is currently in effect or as it subsequently may be amended or superseded.

For non-publicly traded stock, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the Grant Date based on an average of the Fair Market Values as of such date set forth in the opinions of completely independent and well-qualified experts (the Participant's status as a majority or minority shareholder may be taken into consideration).

Regardless of whether the Common Stock offered under the Award is publicly traded, a good faith attempt under this definition shall not be met unless the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date is determined with regard to nonlapse restrictions (as defined in Section 1.83-3(h) of the Treasury Regulations) and without regard to lapse restrictions (as defined in Section 1.83-3(i) of the Treasury Regulations);

(a)     Shares, including unrestricted Shares;

(b)     Options;

(e)     Deferred Stock Units;

(f)     Dividend Equivalent Rights, as defined in Section 13; or

(g)     any combination of the foregoing.

Designation of Award

6.2     Each type of Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. But see Section 7.3(a) regarding exceeding the Incentive Stock Option threshold.

7.     GRANT OF OPTIONS; TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF GRANT

Grant of Options

7.1

(a)     One or more Options may be granted to any Eligible Participant. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Administrator shall determine from the Eligible Participants those individuals to whom Options under this Plan may be granted. The Shares underlying a grant of an Option may be in the form of Restricted Stock or unrestricted Stock.


-15-

(b)     Further, subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Administrator shall specify the Grant Date, the number of Shares covered by the Option, the exercise price and the terms and conditions for exercise of the Options. As soon as practicable after the Grant Date, the Company shall provide the Grantee with a written Award Agreement in the form approved by the Administrator, which sets out the Grant Date, the number of Shares covered by the Option, the exercise price and the terms and conditions for exercise of the Option.

(c)     The Administrator may, in its absolute discretion, grant Options under this Plan at any time and from time to time before the expiration of this Plan.

General Terms and Conditions

7.2     Except as otherwise provided herein, the Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with this Plan as the Administrator may impose:

(a)     Exercise of Option. The Administrator may determine in its discretion whether any Option shall be subject to vesting and the terms and conditions of any such vesting. The Award Agreement shall contain any such vesting schedule;

(b)     Option Term. Each Option and all rights or obligations thereunder shall expire on such date as shall be determined by the Administrator, but not later than ten years after the Grant Date (five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option when the Optionee beneficially owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (a "Ten Percent Stockholder"), as determined with reference to Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), and shall be subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided;

(c)     Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of any Option shall be determined by the Administrator when the Option is granted, at such Exercise Price as may be determined by the Administrator in the Administrator's sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Grant Date with respect to any Incentive Stock Options which are granted and, provided further, that the Exercise Price of any Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Grant Date. Payment for the Shares purchased shall be made in accordance with Section 16 of this Plan. The Administrator is authorized to issue Options, whether Incentive Stock Options or Non-qualified Stock Options, at an option price lower than or in excess of the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date, to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted under the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price or purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of the Award, and acceleration or waivers thereof, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines that is not inconsistent with any rule or regulation under any tax or securities laws or includes an alternative right that does not disqualify an Incentive Stock Option under applicable regulations;


-16-

(d)     Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised only by delivery to the Company of a stock option exercise agreement (the "Exercise Agreement") in a form approved by the Administrator (which need not be the same for each Grantee), stating the number of Shares being purchased, the restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements regarding the Grantee's investment intent and access to information and other matters, if any, as may be required or desirable by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws, together with payment in full of the exercise price for the number of Shares being purchased;

(e)     Exercise After Certain Events.

(i)     Termination of Continuous Services.

(A)     Options.

(I)     Termination of Continuous Services. If for any reason other than Disability or death, a Grantee terminates Continuous Services with the Company or a Subsidiary, vested Options held at the date of such termination may be exercised, in whole or in part, either (i) at any time within three months after the date of such termination, or (ii) during any greater or lesser period as specified in the Award Agreement or (iii) during any greater or lesser period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, prior the date of such termination (but in no event after the earlier of (A) the expiration date of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement and (B) ten years from the Grant Date (five years for a Ten Percent Stockholder if the Option is an Incentive Stock Option)).

(II)     Continuation of Services as Consultant/Advisor. If a Grantee granted an Incentive Stock Option terminates employment but continues as a Consultant (no termination of Continuous Services), the Grantee need not exercise an Incentive Stock Option within either of the termination periods provided for immediately hereinabove but shall be entitled to exercise, in whole or in part, either (i) at any time within three months after the then date of termination of Continuous Services to the Company or a Subsidiary, or (ii) during any greater or lesser period as specified in the Award Agreement or (iii) during any greater or lesser period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, prior the date of such then termination of Continuous


-17-

Services to the Company or the Subsidiary (one year in the event of Disability or death) (but in no event after the earlier of (A) the expiration date of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement and (B) ten years from the Grant Date (five years for a Ten Percent Stockholder if the Option is an Incentive Stock Option)). However, if the Grantee does not exercise within three months of termination of employment, pursuant to Section 422 of the Code the Option shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option.

(B)     Disability and Death. If a Grantee becomes Disabled while rendering Continuous Services to the Company or a Subsidiary, or dies while employed by the Company or Subsidiary or within three months thereafter, vested Options then held may be exercised by the Grantee, the Grantee's personal representative, or by the person to whom the Option is transferred by the laws of descent and distribution, in whole or in part, at any time within one year after the termination because of the Disability or death or any lesser period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event after the earlier of (i) the expiration date of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement, and (ii) ten years from the Grant Date (five years for a Ten Percent Stockholder if the Option is an Incentive Stock Option).

Limitations on Grant of Incentive Stock Options

7.3

(f)     Threshold. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the Grant Date) of the Shares for which Incentive Stock Options may first become exercisable by any Grantee during any calendar year under this Plan, together with that of Shares subject to Incentive Stock Options first exercisable by such Grantee under any other plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, shall not exceed $100,000. For purposes of this Section 7.3(a), all Options in excess of the $100,000 threshold shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options notwithstanding the designation as Incentive Stock Options. For this purpose, Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the date the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

(b)     Compliance with Section 422 of the Code. There shall be imposed in the Award Agreement relating to Incentive Stock Options such terms and conditions as are required in order that the Option be an "incentive stock option" as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code.

(c)     Requirement of Employment. No Incentive Stock Option may be granted to any person who is not an Employee of the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company.

(See Section 13, Dividend Equivalent Right). Such Award Agreement may also provide that such cash payment shall be deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date that such dividend is paid.

Creditor's Rights

10.6     A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement.

(a)     a specific date or date determinable by a fixed schedule;

(b)     upon the Eligible Participant's termination of Continuous Services to the extent the same constitutes a separation from services for purposes of Section 409A of the Code except that if an Eligible Participant is a "key employee" as defined in Section 409A of the Code for such purposes, then payment or settlement shall occur 6 months following such separation of service;

(c)     as a result of the Eligible Participant's death or Disability; or

(d)     in connection with or as a result of a Change of Control in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

The provisions of Subpart A are attached hereto as part of this Plan and are incorporated herein by reference.

12.     STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

Awards of SARs

12.1     An SAR is an award to receive a number of Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), or cash, or Shares and cash, as determined by the Administrator in accordance with Section 12.4 below, for services rendered to the Company. A SAR may be awarded pursuant to an Award Agreement that shall be in such form (which need not be the same for each Grantee) as the Administrator shall from time to time approve, and shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. A SAR may vary from Grantee to Grantee and between groups of Grantees, and may be based upon performance objectives (See Performance Goals in Section 14.4).

Term

12.2     The term of a SAR shall be set forth in the Award Agreement as determined by the Administrator.

Exercise

12.3     A Grantee desiring to exercise a SAR shall give written notice of such exercise to the Company, which notice shall state the proportion of Shares and cash that the Grantee desires to receive pursuant to the SAR exercised, subject to the discretion of the Administrator. Upon receipt of the notice from the Grantee, subject to the Administrator's election to pay cash as provided in Section 12.4 below, the Company shall deliver to the person entitled thereto (i) a certificate or certificates for Shares and/or (ii) a cash payment, in accordance with Section 12.4 below. The date the Company receives written notice of such exercise hereunder is referred to in this Section 12 as the "exercise date".

Number of Shares or Amount of Cash

12.4     Subject to the discretion of the Administrator to substitute cash for Shares, or some portion of the Shares for cash, the amount of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of a SAR shall be determined by dividing: (i) the total number of Shares as to which the SAR is exercised, multiplied by the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the exercise date exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the SAR; by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the exercise date; provided, however, that fractional Shares shall not be issued and in lieu thereof, a cash adjustment shall be paid. In lieu of issuing Shares


-22-

upon the exercise of a SAR, the Administrator in its sole discretion may elect to pay the cash equivalent of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the exercise date for any or all of the Shares that would otherwise be issuable upon exercise of the SAR.

Effect of Exercise

12.5     A partial exercise of a SAR shall not affect the right to exercise the remaining SAR from time to time in accordance with this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement with respect to the remaining shares subject to the SAR.

Forfeiture

12.6     In the case of an event of forfeiture pursuant to the Award Agreement, including failure to satisfy any restriction period or a performance objective, any SAR that has not vested prior to the date of termination shall automatically expire, and all of the rights, title and interest of the Grantee thereunder shall be forfeited in their entirety.

13.     DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHT

A dividend equivalent right is an Award entitling the recipient to receive credits based on cash distributions that would have been paid on the Shares specified in the dividend equivalent right (or other Award to which it relates) if such Shares had been issued to and held by the recipient (a "Dividend Equivalent Right"). A Dividend Equivalent Right may be granted hereunder to any Grantee as a component of another Award or as a freestanding Award. The terms and conditions of Dividend Equivalent Right shall be specified in the grant. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a Dividend Equivalent Right may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional Shares, which may thereafter accrue additional equivalents. Any such reinvestment shall be at Fair Market Value on the date of reinvestment. Dividend Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash or Shares or a combination thereof, in a single instalment or instalments, all determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of another Award may provide that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall be settled upon exercise, settlement, or payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, such other Award, and that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall expire or be forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other Award. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of another Award may also contain terms and conditions different from such other Award.

14.     TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS

In General

14.1     Subject to the terms of the Plan and Applicable Laws, the Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms, and conditions of each Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of payment (cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria.


-23-

Term of Award

14.2     The term of each Award shall be the term stated in the Award Agreement.

Transferability

14.3

(a)     Limits on Transfer. No right or interest of a Grantee in any unexercised or restricted Award may be pledged, encumbered or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than to the Company or a Related Entity or Affiliate. No Award shall be sold, assigned, transferred or disposed of by a Grantee other than by the laws of descent and distribution or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations order that would satisfy Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code if such Section applied to an Award under the Plan; provided, however, that the Administrator may (but need not) permit other transfers where the Administrator concludes that such transferability (i) does not result in accelerated taxation or other adverse tax consequences, (ii) does not cause any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option to fail to be described in Section 422(b) of the Code, and (iii) is otherwise appropriate and desirable, taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including, without limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Awards.

(b)     Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 14.3(a), a Grantee may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Grantee and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Grantee's death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative or other person claiming any rights under the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Grantee, except to the extent the Plan and such Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Grantee, payment shall be made to the Grantee's estate. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Grantee at any time, provided the change or revocation is filed with the Administrator.

Performance Goals

14.4     In order to preserve the deductibility of an Award under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator may determine that any Award granted pursuant to this Plan to a Grantee that is or is expected to become a Covered Employee shall be determined solely on the basis of (a) the achievement by the Company or Subsidiary of a specified target return, or target growth in return, on equity or assets, (b) the Company's stock price, (c) the Company's total shareholder return (stock price appreciation plus reinvested dividends) relative to a defined comparison group or target over a specific performance period, (d) the achievement by the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary, or a business unit of any such entity, of a specified target, or target growth in, net income, earnings per share, earnings before income and taxes, and earnings before income, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or (e) any combination of the goals set forth in (a) through (d) above. If an Award is made on such basis, the Administrator shall establish


-24-

goals prior to the beginning of the period for which such performance goal relates (or such later date as may be permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code or the regulations thereunder but not later than 90 days after commencement of the period of services to which the performance goal relates), and the Administrator has the right for any reason to reduce (but not increase) the Award, notwithstanding the achievement of a specified goal. Any payment of an Award granted with performance goals shall be conditioned on the written certification of the Administrator in each case that the performance goals and any other material conditions were satisfied.

In addition, to the extent that Section 409A is applicable, (i) performance-based compensation shall also be contingent on the satisfaction of pre-established organizational or individual performance criteria relating to a performance period of at least 12 consecutive months in which the Eligible Participant performs services and (ii) performance goals shall be established not later than 90 calendar days after the beginning of any performance period to which the performance goal relates, provided that the outcome is substantially uncertain at the time the criteria are established.

Acceleration

14.5     The Administrator may, in its sole discretion (but subject to the limitations of and compliance with Section 409A of the Code and Section 14.7 in connection therewith), at any time (including, without limitation, prior to, coincident with or subsequent to a Change of Control) determine that (a) all or a portion of a Grantee's Awards shall become fully or partially exercisable, and/or (b) all or a part of the restrictions on all or a portion of the outstanding Awards shall lapse, in each case, as of such date as the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, declare. The Administrator may discriminate among Grantees and among Awards granted to a Grantee in exercising its discretion pursuant to this Section 14.5.

Compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code

14.6     Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code is required or desired, all Awards granted under this Plan to Named Executive Officers shall comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. In addition, in the event that changes are made to Section 162(m) of the Code to permit greater flexibility with respect to any Award or Awards under this Plan, the Administrator may make any adjustments it deems appropriate.

Compliance with Section 409A of the Code

14.7     Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if any provision of this Plan or an Award Agreement contravenes any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code or could cause an Award to be subject to the interest and penalties under Section 409A of the Code, such provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement shall be modified to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. In addition, in the event that changes are made to Section 409A of the Code to permit greater flexibility with respect to any Award under this Plan, the Administrator may make any adjustments it deems appropriate.


-25-

Section 280G of the Code

14.8     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, unless expressly provided otherwise in the Award Agreement, if the right to receive or benefit from an Award under this Plan, either alone or together with payments that a Grantee has a right to receive from the Company, would constitute a "parachute payment" (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), all such payments shall be reduced to the largest amount that shall result in no portion being subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code.

Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service

14.9     An Award may not be exercised after the termination date of such Award set forth in the Award Agreement and may be exercised following the termination of a Grantee's Continuous Service only to the extent provided in the Award Agreement. Where the Award Agreement permits a Grantee to exercise an Award following the termination of the Grantee's Continuous Service for a specified period, the Award shall terminate to the extent not exercised on the last day of the specified period or the last day of the original term of the Award, whichever occurs first.

Cancellation of Awards

14.10     In the event a Grantee's Continuous Services has been terminated for "Cause", he or she shall immediately forfeit all rights to any and all Awards outstanding. The determination that termination was for Cause shall be final and conclusive. In making its determination, the Board shall give the Grantee an opportunity to appear and be heard at a hearing before the full Board and present evidence on the Grantee's behalf. Should any provision to this Section 14.10. be held to be invalid or illegal, such illegality shall not invalidate the whole of this Section 14, but, rather, this Plan shall be construed as if it did not contain the illegal part or narrowed to permit its enforcement, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced accordingly.

15.     ADDITIONAL TERMS IF THE COMPANY BECOMES LISTED ON A STOCK EXCHANGE

15.1     In the event the Shares become listed on a stock exchange, and to the extent required by the rules of such stock exchange, then the following terms and conditions shall apply to an Award in addition to those contained herein, as applicable:

(a)     the exercise price of an Award must not be lower than 100% of the Fair Market Value (without discount) of the Shares on the stock exchange at the time the Award is granted;

(b)     the number of securities issuable to Insiders, at any time, under all of the Company's security based compensation arrangements (whether entered into prior to or subsequent to such listing), cannot exceed 10% of the Company's total issued and outstanding Common Stock, unless the Company obtains Disinterested Shareholder Approval; and


-26-

(c)     the number of securities issued to Insiders, within any one year period, under all of the Company's security based compensation arrangements (whether entered into prior to or subsequent to such listing), cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, unless the Company obtains Disinterested Shareholder Approval.

the average of the "Closing Sale Prices" of the Shares of Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets) for at least the two trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the Exercise Date; and

d =

the Exercise price of the Award.

For purposes of such an Award, "Closing Sale Price" means, for any security as of any date, the last trade price for such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market for such security, as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or, if such exchange or trading market begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the last trade price, then the last trade price of such security prior to 4:00 p.m., New York City time, as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last trade price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or, if no last trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg Financial Markets, the average of the bid prices, or the ask prices, respectively, of any market makers for such security as reported by the OTC Markets Group Inc.. If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sale Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Grantee. If the Company and the Grantee are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then the Company shall, within two business days submit via facsimile (a) the disputed determination of the Closing Sale Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Grantee or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Shares of Common Stock to the Company's independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Grantee of the results no later than ten business days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during the applicable calculation period. For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Shares of Common Stock issued in a cashless exercise


-28-

transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Grantee, and the holding period for the shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date the Award was originally issued (provided that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise); or

(e)     Broker-Assisted. By delivering a properly executed exercise notice to the Company together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the exercise price and the amount of any required tax or other withholding obligations.

(f)     Combination of Methods. By any combination of the foregoing methods of payment or any other consideration or method of payment as shall be permitted by applicable corporate law and the policies of any stock exchange on which the Company may be listed from time to time.

17.     WITHHOLDING TAXES

Withholding Generally

17.1     Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan or Shares are forfeited pursuant to a deemed net-stock exercise, the Company may require the Grantee to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy the foreign, federal, state, provincial, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without limitation, on exercise of an Award. When, under applicable tax laws, a Grantee incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or vesting of any Award, the disposition by a Grantee or other person of an Award or an Option prior to satisfaction of the holding period requirements of Section 422 of the Code, or upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the Company shall have the right to require such Grantee or such other person to pay by cash, or check payable to the Company, the amount of any such withholding with respect to such transactions. Any such payment must be made promptly when the amount of such obligation becomes determinable.

Stock for Withholding

17.2     To the extent permissible under applicable tax, securities and other laws, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, permit a Grantee to satisfy his or her obligation to pay any withholding tax, in whole or in part, with Shares up to an amount not greater than the Company's minimum statutory withholding rate for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. The Administrator may exercise its discretion, by (i) directing the Company to apply Shares to which the Grantee is entitled as a result of the exercise of an Award, or (ii) delivering to the Company Shares that have been owned by the Grantee for more than six months, unless the delivery of Shares is otherwise exempt from Section 16 of the Exchange Act. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 17.2 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with Shares that are not subject to any repurchase,


-29-

forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements. The Shares so applied or delivered for the withholding obligation shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date of measurement of the amount of income subject to withholding.

18.     ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

In General

18.1    Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each such outstanding Award, as well as any other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Shares, or (ii) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been effected without receipt of consideration. The Administrator shall make the appropriate adjustments to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under this Plan; and (ii) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise price per Share in effect under each outstanding Award in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits thereunder; provided, however, that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number and the Administrator shall make such adjustments as are necessary to insure Awards of whole Shares. Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Company's Right to Effect Changes in Capitalization

18.2     The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect the Company's right to effect adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in its or any other corporation's capital structure or business, any merger or consolidation, any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Shares, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company's or any other corporation's assets or business or any other corporate act whether similar to the events described above or otherwise.

19.     CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS/CHANGES IN CONTROL/RELATED ENTITY DISPOSITIONS

Company is Not the Survivor

19.1     Subject to Section 19.3 and except as may otherwise be provided in an Award Agreement, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its absolute discretion, exercisable either in advance of any actual or anticipated Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or at the time of an actual Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (a) to cancel each outstanding Award upon payment in cash to the Grantee of the amount by which any cash and the Fair Market Value of any other property which the Grantee would have received as consideration for the Shares covered by the


-30-

Award if the Award had been exercised before such Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition exceeds the exercise price of the Award, or (b) to negotiate to have such Award assumed by the surviving corporation. The determination as to whether the Company is the surviving corporation is at the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator.

In addition to the foregoing, in the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or a Corporate Transaction or Related Entity Disposition in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, the Administrator, in its absolute discretion, may accelerate the time within which each outstanding Award may be exercised. Section 19.3 shall control with respect to any acceleration in vesting in the event of Change of Control.

The Administrator shall also have the authority:

(a)     to release the Awards from restrictions on transfer and repurchase or forfeiture rights of such Awards on such terms and conditions as the Administrator may specify; and

(b)     to condition any such Award's vesting and exercisability or release from such limitations upon the subsequent termination of the Continuous Service of the Grantee within a specified period following the effective date of the Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition.

Effective upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition governed by this Section 19.1, all outstanding Awards under this Plan not exercised by the Grantee or assumed by the successor corporation shall terminate.

Company is the Survivor

19.2     In the event of a Corporate Transaction, Change in Control or Related Entity Disposition in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the Administrator shall determine the appropriate adjustment of the number and kind of securities with respect to which outstanding Awards may be exercised, and the exercise price at which outstanding Awards may be exercised. The Administrator shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, when the Company shall be deemed to survive for purposes of this Plan. Subject to any contrary language in an Award Agreement evidencing an Award, any restrictions applicable to such Award shall apply as well to any replacement shares received by the Grantee as a result.

Change in Control

19.3     If there is a Change of Control, all outstanding Awards shall fully vest immediately upon the Company's public announcement of such a Change of Control.

20.     PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP

No Grantee shall have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued to the Grantee. After Shares are issued to the Grantee, the Grantee shall be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid


-31-

with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Grantee may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Award.

21.     RESTRICTION ON SHARES

At the discretion of the Administrator, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement that the Grantee not dispose of the Shares for a specified period of time, or that the Shares are subject to a right of first refusal or a right to repurchase by the Company at the Shares' Fair Market Value at the time of sale. The terms and conditions of any such rights or other restrictions shall be set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing the Award.

22.     CERTIFICATES

All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under this Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted.

23.     ESCROW; PLEDGE OF SHARES

To enforce any restrictions on a Grantee's Shares, the Administrator may require the Grantee to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Administrator, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Administrator may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates.

24.     SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

Compliance With Applicable Law

24.1     An Award shall not be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the Grant Date and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to (i) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (ii) completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal laws or rulings of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company shall be under no obligation to register the Shares with the Securities Exchange Commission or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification


-32-

or listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company shall have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. Evidences of ownership of Shares acquired pursuant to an Award shall bear any legend required by, or useful for purposes of compliance with, applicable securities laws, this Plan or the Award Agreement.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Awards pursuant to this Plan and the exercise of Awards granted hereunder shall qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of this Plan or action by the Board or the Administrator does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board or the Administrator, and shall not affect the validity of this Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Administrator may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement.

Investment Representation

24.2     As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws.

25.     NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY

Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan shall confer or be deemed to confer on any Grantee any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or to limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate such Grantee's employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

26.     EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF PLAN

This Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the shareholders of the Company. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten years unless sooner terminated.

27.     SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL

This Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within 12 months from the date the Plan is adopted by the Company's Board for any and all intended Incentive Stock Options granted hereunder. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws. The Administrator may grant Awards under this Plan prior to approval by the shareholders, however, until such approval is obtained, all Option Awards granted under this Plan shall be deemed Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the event that shareholder approval is not obtained within the 12 month period provided above, all Incentive Stock Option Awards previously granted under this Plan shall be deemed Non-Qualified Stock Options.


-33-

28.     AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF THIS PLAN OR AWARDS

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate this Plan at any time and for any reason. To the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required. Shareholder approval shall be required for the following types of amendments to this Plan: (i) any change to those persons who are entitled to become participants under the Plan which would have the potential of broadening or increasing Insider participation; or (ii) the addition of any form of financial assistance or amendment to a financial assistance provision which is more favourable to Grantees.

Further, the Board may, in its discretion, determine that any amendment should be effective only if approved by the shareholders even if such approval is not expressly required by this Plan or by law. No Award may be granted during any suspension of this Plan or after termination of this Plan.

Any amendment, suspension or termination of this Plan shall not affect Awards already granted, and such Awards shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been amended, suspended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Grantee and the Company. At any time and from time to time, the Administrator may amend, modify, or terminate any outstanding Award or Award Agreement without approval of the Grantee; provided, however, that subject to the applicable Award Agreement, no such amendment, modification or termination shall, without the Grantee's consent, reduce or diminish the value of such Award determined as if the Award had been exercised, vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment or termination.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Administrator shall have broad authority to amend this Plan or any outstanding Award under this Plan without approval of the Grantee to the extent necessary or desirable: (i) to comply with, or take into account changes in, applicable tax laws, securities laws, accounting rules and other applicable laws, rules and regulations; or (ii) to ensure that an Award is not subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A of the Code or the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code.

Further, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, and subject to Applicable Law, the Administrator may, in its absolute discretion, amend or modify this Plan: (i) to make amendments which are of a "housekeeping" or clerical nature; (ii) to change the vesting provisions of an Award granted hereunder, as applicable; (iii) to change the termination provision of an Award granted hereunder, as applicable, which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date of such Award; and (iv) the addition of a cashless exercise feature, payable in cash or securities, which provides for a full deduction of the number of underlying securities from the Maximum Number.


-34-

29.     RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Plan.

The Shares to be issued hereunder upon exercise of an Award may be either authorized but unissued; supplied to the Plan through acquisitions of Shares on the open market; Shares forfeited back to the Plan; Shares surrendered in payment of the exercise price of an Award; or Shares withheld for payment of applicable employment taxes and/or withholding obligations resulting from the exercise of an Award.

The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

30.     EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS

The Administrator may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Grantees, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. The Administrator may at any time buy from a Grantee an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including Restricted Stock) or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator and the Grantee may agree.

31.     APPLICABLE TRADING POLICY

The Administrator and each Eligible Participant will ensure that all actions taken and decisions made by the Administrator or an Eligible Participant, as the case may be, pursuant to this Plan comply with any Applicable Laws and policies of the Company relating to insider trading or "blackout" periods.

32.     GOVERNING LAW

The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming; provided, however, that any Award Agreement may provide by its terms that it shall be governed by the laws of any other jurisdiction as may be deemed appropriate by the parties thereto.

33.     MISCELLANEOUS

Except as specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the Company or a Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits or contributions under any retirement plan of the Company or a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a "Retirement Plan" or "Welfare Plan" under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

(c)     as a result of the Eligible Director's death or Disability; or

8.     Canadian Directors. If a Deferred Stock Unit is granted to an Eligible Director who is a Canadian Director would otherwise constitute a Salary Deferred Arrangement, the Award Agreement pertaining to that Deferred Stock Unit shall contain such other or additional terms as will cause the Deferred Stock Unit to be a Prescribed Plan or Arrangement.

9.     Issuance of Stock Certificates. A stock certificate or certificates shall be registered and issued in the name of the holder of Deferred Stock Units and delivered to such holder as soon as practicable after such Deferred Stock Units have become payable or satisfied in accordance with the terms of the Plan

Helius Medical Technologies, Inc.

Newtown, Pennsylvania 18940

Re: Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. - Registration Statement on Form S-1

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special legal counsel in the State of Wyoming (the "State") to Helius Medical Technologies, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement"), dated the date hereof and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registration Statement relates to the registration of (i) 17,540,000 shares of the Company's common stock (collectively, the "Shares") that have been issued to certain of the selling shareholders named in the Registration Statement (the "Selling Shareholders"), and (ii) 7,620,000 shares of the Company's common stock (collectively, the "Warrant Shares") issuable upon the exercise by certain Selling Shareholders of outstanding common stock purchase warrants (collectively, the "Warrants") to acquire shares of the Company's common stock.

The Shares and Warrants were issued by the Company in the following unregistered offerings:

(i)     15,240,000 subscription receipts were issued at a price of CAD$0.50 per subscription receipt on May 30, 2014, whereby the 15,240,000 subscription receipts automatically converted, for no additional consideration, into 15,240,000 Shares and 7,620,000 Warrants upon the closing of the Merger Agreement (as defined below) on June 13, 2014. All 15,240,000 Shares and 7,620,000 Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants are being registered under the Registration Statement; and

(ii)     2,300,000 Shares were issued to one Selling Shareholder pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") between the Company, HMT Mergersub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and NeuroHabilitation Corporation, which closed on June 13, 2014.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have examined and relied on the original, or a copy, certified or otherwise, of each of the following documents (collectively, the "Opinion Documents"):

(f)     an Officer's Certificate, dated as of the date hereof, executed by Philippe Deschamps, as President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company.

We have not represented the Company on a regular basis, and there may exist matters of a legal or factual nature that could have a bearing on our opinion with respect to which we have not been consulted, or of which we are otherwise unaware. We have not reviewed any documents other than the Opinion Documents, and the opinions rendered herein are limited accordingly. Our opinions expressed herein relate solely to the Opinion Documents and not to any other documents, agreements or instruments referred to in or incorporated by reference into any of the Opinion Documents.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed: (i) the genuineness of any signatures on all documents we have reviewed in connection with this letter, including without limitation, the Opinion Documents; (ii) the legal capacity of natural persons who have executed all documents we have reviewed in connection with this letter; (iii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; (iv) the conformity to originals of all documents submitted as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies; (v) the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties contained in the records, documents, instruments and certificates we have reviewed and relied upon; and (vi) the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:


1.     The Shares held by the Selling Shareholders are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company's common stock.

Summary: Many soldiers in the Armed Forces suffer from balance and gait disorders subsequent to brain trauma from combat or other etiologies. Neuromodulation stimulation with the PoNS(TM) has been shown to aid in speeding up or increasing response to physical therapy in the treatment of vestibular disorder. The PoNS(TM) is presently an experimental device that has been successfully used in investigatory studies of human subjects with movement disorders. Further testing and design development are required to facilitate regulatory approval by the FDA and to meet the product requirements of its eventual end users.

APPENDIX A

STATEMENT OF WORK

I. Title: Collaboration to advance the Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator (PoNS(TM)) device through FDA approval for assisted physical therapy in the treatment of soldiers and others with balance and gait disorder.

II. Background: Current treatment methods for treating balance disorders typically involve medication and various forms of vestibular rehabilitation and physical therapy. Cooperator has developed a novel approach to rehabilitating the injured or diseased human brain using cranial nerve non-invasive neuromodulation (CN-NINM). Sustained application of this stimulation, in conjunction with exercises targeted on a functional deficit, appears to effect changes in activity, and therefore function, of these targeted brain structures. CN-NINM has been tested on subjects having balance, posture and gait disorders due to vestibular, cerebellar, or brainstem trauma. When applied in conjunction with other therapeutic interventions for sensory and movement control, integrating CN-NINM has been demonstrated to create localized functional changes in brain activity levels which, along with observed improvements in balance, posture, gait and limb movement control, provides evidence of functional neurorehabilitation.

Many soldiers in the Armed Forces suffer from balance and gait disorders subsequent to brain trauma from combat or other etiologies. Neuromodulation stimulation with the PoNSTM has been shown to aid in speeding up or increasing response to physical therapy in the treatment of vestibular disorder. The

PoNS(TM) is presently an experimental device that has been successfully used in investigatory studies of human subjects with movement disorders. Further testing and design development are required to facilitate regulatory approval by the FDA and to meet the product requirements of its eventual end users.

An efficiently mass produced PoNSTM that suffers no decreased functionality or reliability could allow patients to regain normal activity in their civilian life, and for some, could allow them to return more quickly to their duty station or military mission.

The goal of this Agreement is to investigate, through the means of a blinded, well-designed study, to determine if the PoNSTM can be mass produced and deployed in a prototypical clinical setting without suffering any decreased functionality or reliability, and demonstrating safety and efficacy in a registrational clinical trial.

Related background intellectual property includes the trademark, PoNS(TM), a pending U.S. patent application as cited in Article 8.01, the current PoNS(TM) prototype design, and proprietary physical therapy protocols developed by scientists at the University of Wisconsin at Madison.

III. Collaboration:

A.     Subject to the availability of government funds to cover Laboratory costs, Laboratory agrees to:

1.     Serve as the Regulatory Sponsor of the PoNS(TM) for all formal and informal interactions with the FDA necessary to gain FDA clearance/approval, to include the initial 513(g) submission.

2.     Supply the facilities and personnel to execute and/or oversee the execution of clinical studies of the device for FDA clearance/approval in support of an intended use of the PoNS(TM) for the treatment of soldiers suffering from balance and gait disorders.

i.      Provide clinical trial monitoring ii.     Provide full biostatical support

iii.     Provide data management oversight iv.     Provide product technical oversight

v.     Provide safety pharmacovigilance and reporting to FDA

vi.      Device qualification/validation;


vii.     Testing plan for release of devices;

3.     Conduct assessments of manufacturing facility and assist/advise facility in meeting

FDA manufacturing requirements.

4.     Aid in designing the clinical protocols to study the PoNS(TM) device as an adjunct to

specialized physical therapy in patients with balance and gait disorders.

5.     Provide advice and expertise on all Army administrative protocols and approvals to execute the studies with military personnel, reservists, and/or veterans.

6.     Prepare and submit the necessary regulatory filings for FDA to secure regulatory clearance or approval, after which such clearance/approval will be transferred to Cooperator.

7.     Ensure Cooperator receives copies of all formal and informal communications with

FDA related to the PoNS(TM) device.

B. Subject to the availability of funds to cover Cooperator costs, Cooperator agrees to:

1.     Complete the commercial design, including ergonomics (e.g. user controls, comfort), and design for improved manufacturability, reliability, and field support and regulatory testing to comply with the FDA regulations for such devices.

2.     Work collaboratively with the Laboratory and other Army personnel to supply all the technical specifications, documentation and any other information required to address FDA requests on the pathway to obtaining FDA clearance/approval of the PoNS(TM) device.

3.     Finalize the commercial design of the PoNS(TM) device so that the devices would be

commercially available to the Army should the results of the study be positive.

4.     Identify and engage a commercial manufacturer post-FDA clearance of the device to produce the device for purchase of the Government.

5.     Provide expertise and training in the design of clinical study protocols.

6.     Provide expertise and training of Army and/or Veterans Affairs personnel in the physical therapy interventions required for clinical studies.

This SOW may be adjusted by the parties in accordance with Article 3.03 of the Agreement.

Overview

NHC is in the process of developing a system which is referred to as the PoNS device. The device has been designed to deliver low-level electrical current to stimulate the lingual projections of, at least, two cranial nerves in the tongue through the gold-plated electrodes. The device has already been through Phase 1 clinical trials and has shown performance efficacy. This device would be intended for use in the home of a patient.

CLINVUE provided a description of the product development efforts to date (ref NHC RFPv1.PDF, rec'd 07/01/13) and has visited Ximedica's Providence, Rhode Island facility. NHC/CLINVUE is intending to use a qualified partner to execute the remaining development cycle activities including design, development, verification testing and assembly. In addition, NHC/CLINVUE is intending to rely on Ximedica to maintain design control, assemble the Design History File (DHF) and plan and conduct other development activities such as packaging, labeling and other needed development-to-supply activities. Ultimately, NHC/CLINVUE is considering Ximedica to design, develop and produce a PoNS product solution suitable for commercial use, according to the requirements by NHC, and in conformance with established FDA Quality System Regulations and design control requirements in order to obtain FDA clearance to market the product. NHC has requested a proposal for executing a fully integrated development process for this device.

Ximedica is well suited for this development-to-supply program. Ximedica has a solid history of designing and developing medical and home healthcare products such as the type requested by NHC.  This work experience spans: collection of user needs, concept and feasibility work, risk assessment, detailed design and engineering, specification development, test protocol development, process validation, maintenance of design control documentation, and compilation of Design History Files and Device Master Records (DMR). These programs often include the sourcing of components and subassemblies using our Approved Vendor List (AVL) and the assembling and delivery of both clinical units and production units. Ximedica has successfully developed and manufactured a number of Class II medical devices for clients. In some cases, the manufacturing was done by Ximedica, in other cases; the client wanted to use either a known contract manufacturer or wanted to transfer the client's manufacturing line. Regardless of this choice, Ximedica has a Quality Management System that allows for this flexibility, while ensuring efficient program execution. Unlike the big-box contract manufacturing firms, Ximedica's manufacturing flexibility can provide single batch, human-


use clinical builds ranging from a few hundred units to fifty thousand units and has also shipped between 100-10,000 units on an ongoing monthly basis for our clients. This flexibility allows our clients to get product manufactured in a controlled, documented way with disrupting their existing assembly lines with one-time builds or, if a start-up, creating an approved manufacturing facility from scratch.

Ximedica has offices in Minneapolis and Hong Kong. The Hong Kong office supports overseas supply chain activities, when appropriate.


 

Objective

To design, develop and produce a PoNS product solution suitable for clinical trial and commercial sale according to the requirements by NHC, in conformance with established FDA Quality System Regulations and design control requirements, and to help NHC obtain FDA clearance to market the product.

Summary of Ximedica's Experience

Ximedica's team includes deep experience in research, human factors & industrial design, over 50 engineers, design assurance, regulatory professionals, and a manufacturing and supply group focused on NPI (new product introduction). Our project managers are trained and experienced in medical device development and work collaboratively and transparently with our clients. All Ximedica employees have been formally trained in the various activities associated with their roles and fields of expertise for development and manufacture of medical products.

Every project has a core team that is consistent throughout the entire program to ensure efficient information transfer between disciplines. That core team is augmented with other product development professionals in the Ximedica resource pool as needed. Ximedica's integrated approach to design and development has been proven to result in successful product outcomes, meet regulatory compliance rigor and achieve schedule objectives. This vertical integration of the entire product development process, including manufacturing, brings efficiencies in resourcing and scheduling. From a client's perspective, this also brings unambiguous accountability for the successful completion of the program.

For this assignment, Ximedica shall draw together a project team of professionals with experience throughout the medical device and scientific products industry including Covidien/Tyco, Boston Scientific Corporation, Johnson & Johnson, Inc., Smith & Nephew, and Becton Dickinson to name a few. Ximedica believes strongly that this ability to bring diversity to the program will generate a superior product for NHC.


A particularly relevant development and manufacturing effort is the J&J VerV(TM) neurostimulation device (see photo above). This device was a single-use patch intended to be worn for a week or so. The Verv patch also used a pulsed carrier waveform to deliver neurostimulation therapy, but used hydrogel pads instead of an electrode array as the conductive element. The battery-driven electrical signal produced by the VerV(TM) patch is within the safety levels described within the IEC 60601-2-10 standard for Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2: Particular Requirements for the Safety of Nerve and Muscle Stimulators. The VerV(TM) controller was not hard-wired to the patch but communicated via wireless signal. In a similar fashion to the NHC request, Ximedica codified the design and created the DHF and DMR and developed the manufacturing line to create clinical and production units that were sold in Europe. Ximedica serves as the distribution center for J&J Operations for shipment to the EU.

We are a full service, ISO-13485, 2003 certified as both medical device developer and a manufacturer. As a contract manufacturer we are FDA registered and have significant experience in programs which require creative solutions that balance technical needs with usable, cost-effective designs. Due to the number of top medical clients Ximedica works with, and given we create hold and maintain their DHF's, our Quality Management System is successfully audited nearly every month, passing muster with the most stringent auditors.

Key Points

  • Single point of contact for program accountability; no gaps between disciplines
  • Track record in the successful development/manufacture of medical devices (minimum Class II), either as a turn-key operation or in direct partnership with existing suppliers


  • Proven design capabilities including electronics, firmware, mechanical, bio-design, manufacturing processes and process development, Industrial Design, testing
  • Our in house Regulatory experts have a working relationship with FDA counterparts and can serve as a resource to determine a regulatory path or can ensure the coordinated execution of a predetermined regulatory plan.
  • Ability to create and maintain a formal Design History File for delivery to NHC upon completion
  • Ability to create and maintain a formal Device Master Record
  • Ability to scale production capacity in-house to all but the highest volume manufacturing (millions/year)
  • ISO Certifications: e.g. fully maintained ISO 13485 approved design process etc.
  • Fully implemented FDA GMP Quality System for manufacture including IQ/OQ/PQ etc.
  • Ximedica has a Class 8 clean room and relationships with sterilization facilities should our clients need sterile product
  • Ximedica maintains a rigorous inventory control procedure and can serve as a warehousing and distribution center for finished goods
  • If and when the time is right, Ximedica can make the transfer to the next manufacturing site smooth. This can include generation of needed process validation documentation.

Program Communications

In addition to the formal review meetings required by Design Control SOP's, Ximedica recommends regular and systematic contact with key NHC and Clinvue staff throughout the program. Below is a list of communications tools and methods which Ximedica intends to use in order to keep NHC up to date. This is by no means an exhaustive list and can be modified to suit NHC preferences and policies.

  • Weekly status dashboard memo (includes meeting minutes, summary of work completed, issues being chased, decisions made, budget status, etc.)
  • Weekly conference call (street-level task reviews with core team; review progress to date, review any new test data or reports generated, redirect efforts on an as-needed basis, etc.; WebEx may also be utilized during these meetings.)


  • Regular face-to-face meetings (our experience has proven time and time again that getting together in person has significant and valuable benefits)

Responsibilities

In order to properly frame the project and establish a budget, listed below are some basic assumptions regarding responsibilities. These assumptions are meant to establish a baseline understanding between Ximedica and NHC. As described in the meeting and in a follow up email, Ximedica's Program Requirements and Responsibilities form (F-1029) will be completed at the beginning of the project and will fully document responsibility for activities and DHF artifacts between NHC and Ximedica. This form also includes references to which company's SOP's or forms will be used and who has signing authority, etc.

NOTE: Ximedica is willing to take on any of the responsibilities assigned to NHC but would require an adjustment to this proposal and associated budget and schedule.

Project Process Summary

Below are the development phases and their general definitions which Ximedica follows as its primary stage gates. To ensure alignment with NHC/CLINVUE, Ximedica takes a rigorous approach to declare the responsible parties for each of the Design History File artifacts required by the FDA. Once these responsibilities are defined, follow on activities required to finish the phase (and program) can be assessed and planned. Within the graphic, key activities and deliverables are shown for reference. Detailed descriptions of the process and deliverables specific for this work scope will be part of a detailed proposal.

Phase 0 - Research, Product Strategy and Concept Generation (COMPLETE)

Conduct voice of the customer (VOC) research as well as other user and market research. Identify User needs. Explore options for technical and human factors solutions to meet the stated objectives of the client, and may also include assessment of the product's market potential and the likely acceptance of the device by end users.


Phase 1 - Concept Development / Requirements Development (Partially Complete)


Ongoing user and product needs development. Conduct predicate device benchmarking. Develop product design requirements documentation. Concept development including developing product's risk analysis, human factors, industrial design, materials evaluation, initial engineering design, functional proof of principle prototypes and initial product cost estimation. Perform regulatory due diligence and formulate preliminary regulatory strategy assessment and plan.

Phase 2 - Design Development

Convert selected product design into a fully specified design suitable for ensuring consistent manufacturing and quality control processes. Construct prototypes to confirm proper function per established protocols and test criteria. Generate complete design documentation package and requisite design control evidence. Update regulatory strategy based upon design choices, intended use(s) profile and risk assessment.

Phase 3 - Design Verification

Conduct prototype builds and design verification testing suitable for regulatory submission. Work shall include reliability testing, shelf life stability testing, biocompatibility testing, if required, etc. Finalize regulatory strategy and plan and begin preparing the FDA and/or EU submission package.

Phase 4 - Process Validation, Design Validation and Manufacturing Transfer

Coordinate all activities required to get product ready for production. Work shall include generation of all manufacturing and quality procedures and processes, proper structuring of BOMs and Routers, IQ/OQ/PQ efforts and design validation. Complete and submit FDA/EU submission package and manage all communications regarding review.


 

Phase 1: Concept Development & Technical Inputs

Ximedica's Phase 1 is devoted to defining objectives, identifying viable design solutions, conducting feasibility bench-testing and verifying that user requirements can be met. Extended efforts are typically invested in generating ideal user experience profiles, conducting human factors and user interface assessments, evaluating and down-selecting technological options, generating a preliminary understanding of cost drivers and, ultimately, attempting to quantify all these different influencers via objective metrics.

In addition, Phase 1 includes planning a preliminary regulatory submission strategy designed to obtain marketing clearance from FDA and establishing a detailed development plan which includes hazards analysis, VOC collection and intellectual property constraints and opportunities. For this project, NHC has indicated that it has completed or will be responsible for some of these areas of development and planning. (Refer to Responsibilities Section)

Phase 1A - Concept Generation (complete)

Based on the work done to date with Clinvue, activities normally required as part of Phase 1A activities have been completed. This work effort resulted in NHC selecting a preferred industrial design, determining many of the technical requirements for the system and demonstrated function of the circuit design and software algorithms.

Phase 1B - Concept Refinement and Design History File (DHF) documentation

Phase 1B will be focused on completing the documentation required satisfy the transition into Phase 2 Development. This effort will include establishing the formal design requirements within Ximedica's design control process, producing a use-case that will allow a Preliminary Hazards Analysis and Use Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (UFMEA). Any identified risks will then be mitigated by additional product requirements. Review of the Regulatory Strategy and freedom to operate/intellectual property will also occur. At the end of Phase 1B, requirements are finalized and the program will be ready to enter Phase 2 for expedient execution.

Phase 3/Phase 4: Design Verification and Manufacturing Preparation

The goal of this phase is to construct production-quality assemblies, including their packaging and labeling, and formally verify that the design generated during Phase 2 is fully capable of meeting the established design requirements.


NOTE: It is assumed that this phase overlaps with Phase 2 by one month. Prudent tooling and manufacturing fixtures must be designed and released early, with some risk, to achieve the build, Design Verification and lot release of the 200 systems for the planned September 2014 clinical trial.

Process:

1.     Commission all molds and tooling (if any required) for component procurement and assembly. It is assumed that this phase will use rapid-prototyping methods and/or sources, such as Class 103 molds, for all components with lead times no longer than six weeks. It may be possible to use these short-run tools for Design Validation test units and possibly for initial distribution units.

2.     Establish formal control of supply chain. Conduct vendor quality audits as required. Enter all suppliers into Approved Vendor Listing database. Enter all components and vendors into ERP system.

3.     Generate manufacturing procedures and in-process inspection procedures. Establish final functional verification tests for sub-assemblies. Conduct a preliminary Process FMEA.

4.     Update the master design verification plan for evaluation of all functions and features. This plan shall describe all the tests to be conducted as part of the formal Design Verification effort. Update and generate any supporting verification protocols. Tests shall include all performance testing including:

a.     Measurement System Analyses (where appropriate)

b.     Functional Performance per design requirements (accuracy, repeatability, sensitivity, etc)

c.     Submission to environmental conditions

d.     Lifecycle tests

e.     Packaging validation

f.     Ship testing

g.     Shelf life testing

h.     Biocompatibility testing

i.     EMC / Electrical safety testing

j.     Software validation testing

k.     Other evaluations depending on design requirements and relevant standards.

5.     Order enough components to construct 500 main units and 1,000 disposable assemblies. (This quantity may change once the Master Verification test plan is drafted.) The goal is to produce the DV and clinical assemblies in one batch. Once Design Verification is achieved, the batch will be suitable for the clinical testing. This will be documented using Ximedica's Human Use Build protocol.


6.     Receive and inspect all components.

7.     Build and inspect units in order to conduct design verification testing. These units would have traceable production-equivalent components and functions. All work will be maintained under proper quality and document controls.

8.     Conduct design verification testing and confirm function per the published test protocols.

9.     Similar to the usability review activities of Phase 2, prepare and conduct several product test sessions with representative users. These sessions would focus on testing the physical prototypes and the draft labeling and IFU's with clinical users. These sessions would also be structured as part of Full Product Validation Study documentation.

10.     Compile results and generate test reports.

11.     Prepare reports and documentation requested by the Regulatory Affairs team at NHC to support their FDA/EU submission package.

12.     Update any specifications or processes that were found inadequate during testing. All edits shall be made via formal document control processes. Repeat testing if required.

13.     Complete Instructions for Use and their specifications.

14.     Finalize Bill of Materials and Cost of Goods estimate, if necessary.

15.     Based on NHC's feedback and direction, Ximedica shall update the follow-on phase processes, schedules, budget and deliverables in order to continue the development cycle. Where there is divergence from the original plan and budget, this update should provide explanation.

16.     Conduct a Phase 3 design review w/ NHC including signatures and detailed meeting minutes and action item list.

Project Schedule Summary

Below is a top-level milestones schedule. Ximedica plans to resource this program appropriately to complete all aspects ("full" version of the PoNS controller) by Phase 3, design verification. We expect that with robust staffing, and our specific prior experience designing headsets and mouth pieces/guards, we can develop a reasonable solution for NHC in the limited time requested. Should delays occur which necessitate the delivery of a "lite" version of the PoNS controller, additional software development and finalization time is expected to be needed. It is estimated that this additional activity will require an additional two months for software finalization and another 2 months to perform limited design verification activates to address added or changed functions. This schedule is intended as a reference point in order to establish context. A formalized and complete Gantt chart will be generated with NHC during project initiation.

Phase

Approx Duration

Phase 1B: Concept Refinement & documentation

~ 2 months

Phase 2: Product Development

~ 4 months

Phase 3/4: Design Verification and Batch Qualification*

~ 5 months

Requalification efforts if software is not completed by DV

~ 4 months

Total Duration (Phases 1 - 3)

~ 10 months

* Overlaps Phase 2 by 1 month

Project Cost Structure

As mentioned above, Ximedica plans to resource this program appropriately to finish the development ("full" version of the PoNS controller) by Phase 3, design verification. Based on our conversations, schedule is of the utmost importance and the only way to achieve the September delivery is to staff the program robustly. Despite our experience with similar devices, headsets, mouth guards and the like, work must be completed quickly and efficiently and without major delays or issues. Should delays occur which necessitate the delivery of a "lite" version of the PoNS controller, additional software development and finalization time is expected to be needed. The additional months and budget to complete the "full" version should be thought of as a contingency to the planned budget and schedule.


Ximedica bills as incurred and value delivered is reported weekly and budget used to date is reported monthly. The budget shown below should be considered a "robust" estimate and will be revised as the unknown details unfold and future risks are mitigated.

The budget estimates below represents a pragmatic estimate for the phases described based on Ximedica's current knowledge of the project's objectives and deliverables and related past experiences. Alternative budget scenarios are shown to provide a holistic consideration of possible outcomes. On the low end of the range is the "Goal" budget. This is a function of things generally going smoothly, efficient client interactions and last minute changes and requirements are inconsequential. On the other extreme, the "Conservative" budget describes what could happen if the opposite occurs. The former sets functional goals for the entire team (internal and external), while the latter provides a more buffered outlook for business and stakeholder reporting. Typically, neither extreme is likely, with the real outcome somewhere in between. Hence, the Pragmatic scenario.

(a)     Each NHC Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) NHC Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.9(b) and (ii) any Dissenting Shares) shall thereupon be cancelled and extinguished and converted automatically into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive 16.0350261 (the "Exchange Ratio") fully paid and nonassessable Helius Shares (the "Merger Consideration"). No fractional interests in Helius Shares, and no certificates representing such fractional interests, shall be issued in connection with the Merger.

(c)     Each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Mergersub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Such shares shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding Surviving Corporation capital stock.

(d)     If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of Helius, or securities convertible into or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of such capital stock, shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period (excluding, in each case, normal quarterly cash dividends), merger or other similar transaction, the Exchange Ratio shall be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to reflect such change.

2.10     Treatment of Options and Other Equity-Based Awards

(a)     At the Effective Time, each option or similar right (each, a "NHC Stock Option") to purchase NHC Shares granted under any employee or director stock option, stock purchase or equity compensation plan, arrangement or agreement of NHC (the "NHC Equity Plans"), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically terminated.

2.11     Dissenting Shares

(a)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, NHC Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such NHC Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL ("Dissenting Shares") shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect, or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost, such holder's right to appraisal under the DGCL. Dissenting Shares shall be treated in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such holder fails to perfect or


-11-

withdraws or loses any such right to appraisal, each such NHC Share of such holder shall thereupon be converted into and become exchangeable only for the right to receive, as of the later of the Effective Time and the time that such right to appraisal has been irrevocably lost, withdrawn or expired, the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.9(a). NHC shall serve prompt notice to Helius of any demands for appraisal of any NHC Shares, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by the Company relating to rights to appraisal, and Helius shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. NHC shall not, without the prior written consent of Helius, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. [

2.12     Withholding Rights

(a)     Each of Helius, Mergersub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be withheld, from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amount as it determines it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other Law.

2.13     Lost Certificates

(a)     If any certificate or other instrument that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented NHC Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate or instrument to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Helius, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Helius may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such NHC Shares, Helius shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or instrument the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to the NHC Shares formerly represented thereby.

2.14     Stock Transfer Books

(a)     The stock transfer books of NHC shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of NHC Shares thereafter on the records of the Company. At or after the Effective Time, any certificates formerly representing NHC Shares presented to Helius or the Surviving Corporation for any reason shall be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to the NHC Shares formerly represented thereby.

2.15     Exchange Procedures

(a)     From and after the Effective Time, Helius shall act as exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") in effecting the exchange of the applicable number of Helius Shares for certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding NHC Shares (the "NHC Certificates") and which were converted into the right to


-12-

receive the applicable number of Helius Shares set forth in Section 2.9(a). As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, NHC shall provide to each record holder of outstanding NHC Shares a letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") in a form reasonably acceptable to the parties and instructions for use in surrendering such NHC Certificates and receiving the applicable number of Helius Shares pursuant to Section 2.9(a). As of the Effective Time, Helius shall, in its capacity as Exchange Agent, hold in trust the applicable number of Helius Shares set forth in Section 2.9(a).

(b)     After the Effective Time, upon the surrender of each NHC Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required by Surviving Corporation: (i) Surviving Corporation shall cause to be issued to the holder of such NHC Certificate in exchange therefor a separate stock certificate representing the Helius Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.9(a), without interest; and (ii) the NHC Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(c)     Subject to dissenter rights under the DGCL and Section 2.11, all NHC Shares converted in accordance with Section 2.9(a) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and as of the Effective Time each holder of a certificate representing any such NHC Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Helius Shares under Section 2.9(a), without interest.

ARTICLE VI

The number of directors of the Corporation shall be as from time to time fixed by, or in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Election of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.


ARTICLE VII

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no director of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for the breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law or any other law of the State of Delaware is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article VII to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law as so amended.

Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article VII by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any director of the Corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to, such repeal or modification.

ARTICLE VIII

A.     Right of Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director of the Corporation or is or was a director of the Corporation and is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter an "indemnitee"), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer (as provided above) or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer (as provided above), shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto), against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue with respect to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer (as provided above) and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided in paragraph (B) hereof with respect to any proceeding to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article VIII shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an "advancement of expenses"); provided, however, that, if the Delaware


General Corporation Law requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an "undertaking"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a "final adjudication") that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article or otherwise.

B.     Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under paragraph (A) of this Article is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation (except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty days), the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, the indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (i) any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (ii) in any suit by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that the indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor any actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the indemnitee is not entitled under this Article or otherwise to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, shall be on the Corporation.

C.     Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of Incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

D.     Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any indemnitee against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

E.     Indemnity of Employees and Agents of the Corporation. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article VIII or as otherwise permitted under the Delaware


General Corporation Law with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

ARTICLE IX

Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware, as the Bylaws of the Corporation may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

Section 101 et seq., as amended) and owned exclusively by the Company. To the extent that any Work Product is not deemed to be "work made for hire" under applicable law, and all right, title and interest in and to such Work Product have not automatically vested in the Company, the Executive hereby (a) irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, and shall assign transfer and convey, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, all right, title and interest in and to the Work Product on a worldwide basis to the Company (or such other person or entity as the Company shall designate) without further consideration, and (b) waives all moral rights in or to all Work Product, and to the extent such rights may not be waived, agrees not to assert such rights against the Company or its respective licensees, successors or assigns.

Any dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement or Executive's employment or termination thereof, other than Section 7 that cannot be mutually resolved by the parties hereto shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, before one arbitrator of exemplary qualifications and stature, who shall be selected jointly by the Company and the Executive, or, if the Company and the Executive cannot agree on the selection of the arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association (provided that any arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association shall not, without the consent of the parties hereto, be affiliated with the Company or the Executive or any of their respective affiliates).
