ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Overview
We are an emerging leader in the
regenerative medicine market using adult autologous stromal vascular fraction cells (SVFs) derived from the blood vessels in adipose
tissue. Among other cell types, stromal vascular fraction contains adult stem cells. We believe that our cell therapy
processes and procedures are exempt under PHS Section 361, CFR 1271.10 or CFR 1271.15(b) same day surgical procedure. Therefore,
we do not believe that we will be required to obtain Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) drug or biologic like approvals,
although there can be no assurance that the FDA will require our products to obtain approval in the future.
We currently operate from Regen Medical
PC office based surgery center facility in New York, NY, an entity controlled by Dr. Steven Victor, our chief executive officer,
where we have our cGTP (current good tissue practices) cellular processing laboratory which is registered with the FDA. It is our
intent to place our cGTP cellular processing labs in ambulatory surgery centers or hospitals and operate them under cGTP and SOPs
in other major US metropolitan areas.
The Company anticipates that it will
have multiple revenue streams in the next 12 months including, but not limited to: (i) cellular product sales revenues, (ii) continuing
medical education courses, (iii) cell banking, (iv) international licenses and royalties.
Our Technology
We use a proprietary, patented technology
developed by our founder, Dr. Steven Victor, which provides us with the ability to extract, separate and process the stromal vascular
fraction cells from the blood vessels in adult adipose (fat) tissue in about one hour. We believe that our technology produces
the most cells from the least amount of fat (60 cc) at the lowest cost and the least amount of manipulation when compared to other
technology or processes currently available that employ manipulative processes or enzymes to achieve cell separation. Further,
all cells manufactured using our technology and proprietary process are done so under strict United States Food and Drug Administration
(“FDA”) cGTP guidelines and SOPs that we have established.
We believe that stromular vascular fraction
(“SVFs”) derived from the application of our proprietary process yield a functionally diverse population of cells that
are synergistic and able to communicate with each other and with other cells in their local environment. We also believe that since
we do not have to wash out the blood and do not digest the extracellular matrix versus competitors’ enzymatic protocols that
our product is superior. The mixture of cells has multiple functions and is highly integrated and we believe more potent than adipose
stem cells themselves.
We further believe that IntelliCells™,
when returned to a patient’s own body by way of same-day same clinical procedure (autologous treatment) and delivered via
Point of Care, have little or no risk of disease transfer, rejection or allergic reaction. We also believe that IntelliCells™
have the potential to treat a wide variety of clinical conditions involving orthopedic, gastrointestinal, periodontal, aesthetic
and other conditions or disorders.
Our Strategy
We plan to focus our initial efforts
on regenerative medicine in the areas of orthopedics, sports medicine, pain, aesthetics and periodontal diseases. According to arthritistoday.org,
at least 25 million people nationwide are affected in the world of orthopedics, sports medicine and pain, which, just nationally,
makes that a penetrable market into the billions of dollars. Likewise, according to Research and Markets Aesthetics Report and
Global Data’s market report for the periodontal market, the aesthetics and periodontal markets make up at least a minimum
of $750 million and over a billion dollar market, respectively. We will focus on orthopedics including osteoarthritis,
aesthetics, pain, periodontal and other indications by making our Intellicells™ available to practicing physicians using
Regen Medical’s office based surgical center (“OBSC”). We plan to establish and install our cGTP cellular
processing labs in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals to make our cellular product available to a wide range of physician
specialties to use under the practice of medicine. We believe that we may also be able to license our technology for
wound care, cardiac, gastrointestinal (colitis/ileitis), multiple sclerosis and autism to other companies in the regenerative medicine
field.
In addition to our core focus noted
above in which we provide cGTP cellular processing labs, we also intend to expand our areas of focus, as we are able to locate
and partner with parties interested in utilizing or licensing our technology for other areas. In this regard, we intend
to engage in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization of our proprietary process that will
involve entering into technology licensing agreements and related service agreements with physicians and physician practice
groups, that we will enable to practice our cell therapy procedures in our US facilities. We will also be seeking to enter into
technology licensing agreements or other arrangements that cover particular international territories or countries as described
in greater detail below.
Another focus of our business development
will involve engaging in and our coordinating Institutional Review Board (”IRB”) approved clinical studies at prominent
medical centers, some of which studies may also be the subject of Investigational New Drug applications (“IND’s”)
with the goal of obtaining medical or regulatory approval for significant clinical indications, where, if and as required, of the
Intellicells™ produced with our proprietary process. We have recently formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, ICBS Research, Inc.,
through which we plan to engage in research and development activities by collaborating with university based research organizations. We
have started our first FDA IND study that will be on osteoarthritis of the knee with Dr. James Andrews and inVentiv as our CRO.
We believe these activities may lead to additional patents and intellectual. ICBS Research, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, will
also coordinate scientific research with world class researchers to learn more about the Intellicell™ process and the use
of the cells in medical procedures and as to how it may be used as a more efficacious delivery mechanism or as to how it may be
co-administered in conjunction with other medical therapies. In the future Intellicell plans to conduct human clinical studies
under an IND in osteoarthritis of the knee, diabetic ulcers of the lower extremities, multiple sclerosis, periodontal gum recession
and dermal wrinkles to obtain FDA approval where such approval may be necessary.
We are also exploring and undertaking,
either on our own or in collaboration with one or more third parties, providing a service for the collection, processing and storage
of autologous cells. We intend to market this service to liposuction patients in addition to any patient who might want to store
their SVFs for future use.
Our Competitive Advantage
We believe that our proprietary process
offers significant advantages over other competing processes or technologies currently being employed that utilize enzymes or other
manipulative methods to harvest or culture cells, including:
● |
We believe that our process is in compliance with existing FDA regulations – under current FDA Guidelines for human cell and tissue based products (HCT/P) (based on FDA regulations found at 21 C.F.R. § 1271), patients are allowed to use their own HCT/P for just about any indication, so long as the use of those cells is autologous (a situation in which the donor and recipient are the same person), the cells are minimally manipulated, the clinical use is homologous, and the procedure takes place as a single procedure as defined by the physician. |
● |
Our procedure takes place during the same office visit. The point of care nature of the process is a required element of the protocol required by our licenses, and is emphasized in our technician and physician training. |
● |
We believe that the number of adult autologous stem cells and other progenitor cells that comprise the SVF’s that are harvested from the tissue through the use of our proprietary process are significantly higher than the number of cells produced through the use of other technology or processes currently available that employ manipulative processes or enzymes to achieve cell separation. |
● |
We had engaged Millipore, a division of Merck, to perform a CD (cluster of differentiation) antibody flow cytometry study which has confirmed the high-quality composition of the IntelliCells™. |
● |
We believe that our patented process provides significant time and cost efficiencies at the point of care- using our proprietary ultrasound cavitation technique, SVFs can be separated at low cost and in less time, as compared to competing technologies that utilize enzymes. |
We also believe that IntelliCells™
have the potential to treat not only aesthetic conditions, orthopedic and sports injuries, and pain, but also a wide variety of
clinical conditions involving cardiac, gastrointestinal, periodontal, and autistic disorders. In that regard, we will be seeking
to undertake clinical studies in partnership with well-known universities and hospitals for the following indications and markets:

The Regenerative Medicine Market
Overview of Stromal Vascular Fraction
Stromal Vascular Fraction (“Fraction”)
is the cells obtained from the blood vessels in the lipoaspirate from the small volume of fat harvested, minus the fat cells (adipocytes)
and non-cellular material. The Fraction contains a wide number of cellular types including pre-adipocytes, endothelial cells,
smooth muscle cells, pericytes, fibroblasts, and adult stem cells (ASCs). In addition, the Fraction also contains blood cells from
the capillaries supplying the adipocytes and the extracellular matrix. We refer to this mixture of cells as SVF or SVF cells or
SVFC.
SVF also includes erythrocytes or red
blood cells, B and T cells, macrophages, monocytes, mast cells, natural killer (NK) cells, hematopoietic stem cells and endothelial
progenitor cells and more. Also the Fraction includes adipocyte endocrine secretions, and importantly, contains growth factors
such as transforming growth factor beta (TGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF), among
others.
This is very much like the secretions
of cells in the presence of an extracellular matrix. The SVF also contains the various proteins present in the tissue extracellular
matrix.
How Do SVFs work?
Investigators have postulated a number
of nonexclusive mechanisms through which SVFs can be used to repair and regenerate tissues. First, adult stem cells within the
SVF delivered into an injured or diseased tissue may secrete cytokines and growth factors that stimulate recovery in a paracrine
manner. These factors would modulate the “stem cell niche” of the host by stimulating the recruitment of endogenous
stem cells to the site and promoting their differentiation along the required lineage pathway.
In a related manner, SVFs might provide
antioxidants chemicals, free radical scavengers, and chaperone/heat shock proteins at an ischemic site. As a result, toxic substances
released into the local environment would be removed, thereby promoting recovery of the surviving cells. Studies have suggested
that transplanted bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells or MSCs can deliver new mitochondria to damaged cells, thereby
rescuing aerobic metabolism. It may develop that similar studies in SVFs will uncover a comparable ability to contribute mitochondria.
A final mechanism is to differentiate components of SVFs along a desired cellular lineage.

The Process of SVF Extraction
We intend to use our patented, proprietary
laboratory system, which we have developed internally, that is composed primarily of an ultrasound unit and a centrifuge, and is
performed in a closed sterile system which is readily available in the marketplace in conjunction with a proprietary closed process
for the initial separating of SVF from vascular tissue found to be contained in adipose tissue. This process includes the use of
a flow cytometer that will allow for immediate verification of the quantity and viability of processed cells prior to their reintroduction
back to the same patient, a process overlooked by alternative systems and processes.
The extraction process for the SVF cell
therapies can be summarized as follows:
|
Using a simple
procedure, a cannulae attached to a syringe is inserted into the abdomen or other location for fat extraction and 60 cc of
adipose tissue is harvested from the patient. This is sufficient for most treatments and cell storage of excess SVFC. |
|
The harvested
tissue is then broken down using an ultrasound mechanical separation process, leaving substantially all of the cells viable
but allowing them to be separated from the non-cellular material. |
|
The mix of SVF
cells and unwanted materials are spun down in a centrifuge to isolate the desired cells that form a “pellet” like
substance that can be drawn out of the now separated materials. |
|
The cells are
tested with a flow cytometer to determine cell count and cell viability. |
|
The cells are
then administered back to the same patient by their physician under the practice of medicine through one or more of the following
modes of administration: |
|
Intravenous:
The SVF's may be administered through a standard intravenous drip. |
|
Intra-articular
injection: The SVF's may be injected into and around an arthritic or injured joint such as the knee or shoulder. |
|
Intra-oral injection:
The SVF's may be injected into the oral cavity in the particular region around teeth where gum recession has been observed. |
|
Banking of stem
cells is useful for some procedures that require repeat therapeutic administration as well as for other therapeutic uses that
may be required in the future. The Company currently does not have a cell banking license in New York State, but
has applied for the license. |
Market Data
Regenerative Medicine and Cell Therapy Overview
Source: Proteus Venture Partners
Regenerative Medicine (RM) is a rapidly
expanding set of innovative medical technologies that restore function by enabling the body to repair, replace, and regenerate
damaged, aging or diseased cells, tissues and organs.
According to a recent report, Worldwide
Markets and Emerging Technologies for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, by Life Science Intelligence (LSI), the
largely untapped global market potential for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine products will exceed $118 billion by
2013. The actual current market, which represents only a fraction of the potential market, was estimated at $1.5 billion in 2008.
The report forecasts rapid growth driven by various factors, including increased adoption in various clinical areas and trends
in international markets.
Regenerative therapies have been demonstrated
(in trials or the laboratory) to heal broken bones, treat severe burns, blindness, deafness, heart damage, nerve damage, Parkinson's
Disease, diabetes and other conditions. Significant momentum has been achieved in recent years as evidenced by the surge in government
and foundation research funding, with over 65 academic programs and more than $1.5 billion in worldwide funding for research, expected
to grow to $14 billion in 10 years. There are greater than 175,000 peer-reviewed publications, over 10,000 issued and pending patents,
and more than 900 FDA-approved clinical trials testing regenerative medicine technologies. More than 400 regenerative medicine
products have reached the market today, with more than 600 in development. This, in turn, has led to a proliferation of patient
advocacy groups rightfully demanding a shift in medical treatment paradigms from "band aid therapies" to prevention,
cure, rejuvenation, restoration, and replacement. More than 1.2 million patients have been treated with regenerative products and
therapies.

Licensing
As described above, we intend to engage
in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization of our proprietary process that will focus on:
● |
Entering into licensing agreements and related service agreements with ambulatory surgery centers or hospitals that are located in the United States that provide for the sale of our cellular products, from our labs that will receive lipoaspirate harvested from their patients and employ our proprietary process to the obtain the IntelliCell™ product, and then return the IntelliCell™ product to the physician on the same day labeled “autologous and homologous.” In these arrangements, the clinical use of these IntelliCells™ is not specified in labeling or promotion, but will be left solely to the physician in the exercise of their medical judgment and under the practice of medicine. Under these arrangements, we will be collecting processing fees and/or service fees from the physicians or hospitals. |
● |
Entering into technology licensing agreements that cover a particular international territory or country pursuant to which the licensee shall have the right to set up and/or sublicense the right to set up labs in the territory using equipment purchased from us and that are operated in accordance with protocols set by us. Under these arrangements, we will be collecting an up-front territorial licensing fee and then will receive additional fees based upon from sublicensing and/or processing fees received by the licensees during the term of the license. |

that such parties were also in default and/or non-compliance with the duties, obligation or responsibility imposed upon them by
the agreement, and we intend to pursue our remedies and/or vigorously defend ourselves against any claims made by such parties.
Sales
and Marketing
Our current
marketing objectives focus on achieving rapid growth by entering into agreements to install our cGTP cellular processing lab in
ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals located in the United States that initially focus on regenerative medicine in the areas
of Aesthetics, Orthopedics, Sports Medicine, Pain Management and Periodontal Diseases, and by entering into technology licensing
agreements that cover a particular international territory or country. Finally, another focus of our business development will
involve engaging in and our coordinating clinical studies at prominent medical centers with the goal of obtaining FDA approval
for major clinical indications of the SVF’s yielded from the use of our proprietary process.
Research
and Development
We have
recently formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, ICBS Research, Inc., through which we plan to conduct research and development activities
on our own and in combination with academic, government and industry collaborators.
In contemplation
of our proposed research and development activities, in December 2011, we entered into a strategic collaborative agreement with
Numoda Corporation, a large Contract Research Organization (CRO) that provides a number of clinical research services to the biotech
industry. Under the terms of the agreement, Numoda agreed to invest $500,000 into us based on our achievement of certain
milestones to be agreed upon between the parties, in exchange for our contracting with Numoda to provide CRO services in planned
in-human clinical studies commencing in 2012. As of the date hereof, Numoda has not invested any money into the Company.
We have
also had preliminary discussions with several researchers and Universities regarding the establishment of clinical studies
for the purpose of exploring therapeutic use of IntelliCells™. The currently contemplated initial areas under study with
proposed partners are:
● |
Non-healing
diabetic ulcers (wound healing); and |
● |
Military
severe injuries deploying the IntelliCell™ product (process) on the battlefield as part of the care provider on-site. |
The October
2011 Issue of the Journal of Implant & Advanced Clinical Dentistry published an article on a prospective pilot study on the
clinical application of SVF with stem cells in the treatment of gingival recession defects using our proprietary process to be
conducted by Dr. Nicholas Toscano. Dr. Toscano is a member of our advisory board.
As previously
disclosed above, we have started our first FDA IND study that will be on osteoarthritis of the knee with Dr. James Andrews and
inVentiv as our CRO. On March 11, 2014, the Company executed a Consulting Agreement with Dr. James Andrews, effective March 7,
2014, pursuant to which Dr. Andrews shall serve as Chairman of the Intellicell Orthopedic Cellular Therapy Advisory Board.
Competition
We compete
with many pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and bio tools companies, as well as other private and public stem cell
companies involved in the development and commercialization of cell-based medical technologies and therapies in the regenerative
medicine industry. Regenerative medicine is a rapidly evolving industry, primarily through the development of cell-based therapies
or devices designed to isolate cells from human tissues. Most efforts involve cell sources, such as bone marrow, embryonic and
fetal tissue, umbilical cord and peripheral blood and skeletal muscle. Companies working in the area of regenerative medicine
include, among others, Cytori Therapeutics, Stem Cell Assurance, Inc., Osiris, Aastrom Biosciences, Aldagen, BioTime, Baxter International,
Celgene, Geron, Harvest Technologies, Mesoblast, Regenexx, NeoStem, X-Cell Center, Stem Cells, Athersys, and Tissue Genesis. Companies
working in the area of biological tools include, among others, Life Technologies, Asterand, Pacific Biosciences of California,
and AllCells. Currently, we are aware of certain regenerative medical companies that provide processes for extracting
SVF containing adult stem cells from adipose (fat) tissue. As techniques for expanding the use of stem cells improve,
the use of collection techniques of adult stem cells could increase and compete with our services. Many of our competitors and
potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technological, research and development, marketing and personnel resources
than we do. We cannot with any accuracy forecast when or if these companies are likely to bring cell therapies to market
for procedures that we are also pursuing.
Patents
and Proprietary Rights
Our success
will likely depend upon our ability to preserve our proprietary patented process and operate without infringing on the proprietary
rights of other parties. However, we may rely on certain proprietary technologies and know-how that are not patentable or that
we determine to keep as trade secrets. We intend to protect our proprietary information, in part, by the use of confidentiality
and assignment of invention agreements with our officers, directors, employees, consultants, significant scientific collaborators
and sponsored researchers that will generally provide that all inventions conceived by the individual in the course of rendering
services to us shall be our exclusive property. The following table identifies the published pending patent applications
that are owned by us:

When
appropriate, we will continue to seek patent protection for inventions in our core technologies and in ancillary technologies
that support our core technologies or which we otherwise believe will provide us with a competitive advantage. We will accomplish
this by filing and maintaining patent applications for discoveries we make, either alone or in collaboration with scientific collaborators
and strategic partners. Typically, we plan to file patent applications in the United States. In addition, we plan to obtain licenses
or options to acquire licenses to patent filings from other individuals and organizations that we anticipate could be useful in
advancing our research, development and commercialization initiatives and our strategic business interest.
Government
Regulation
The health
care industry is highly regulated in the United States. The federal government, through various departments and agencies, and
state and local governments regulate and monitor the health care industry. The following is a general overview of the laws and
regulations pertaining to our business.
Human
cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (“HCT/Ps”) Regulation
The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) regulates the manufacture of human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based
products (“HCT/Ps”) under the authority of Section 361 of the Public Health Safety Act (“PHS Act”) and
exercises this authority pursuant to the regulations governing HCT/Ps in Part 1271 in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
The FDA
regulatory requirements for HCT/Ps, such as IntelliCells™, are complex and evolving. The FDA sets forth criteria for determining
whether an HCT/P can be regulated solely under Section 361 of the PHS Act, i.e. , as a “361 HCT/P.”
A 361 HCT/P is regulated solely as an HCT/P, without additional regulation as a medical device, drug, or biologic.
Under the
FDA regulations, an HCT/P qualifies as a 361 HCT/P if it meets all of the following criteria: (i) it is minimally manipulated;
(ii) it is intended for homologous use only, as reflected by labeling, advertising, or other indications of the manufacturer’s
objective intent; (iii) it is not combined with a device, drug or biologic (with limited exceptions); and (iv) either (a) it does
not have a systemic effect and is not dependent upon metabolic activity for its primary function (with certain exceptions) or
(b) it does have a systemic effect or is dependent upon metabolic activity for its primary function and is intended for certain
uses, including autologous use. Such 361 HCT/Ps may be commercially distributed without the FDA’s premarket clearance or
approval. The FDA permits manufacturers to proceed to market based upon a self-determination that a product qualifies
as a 361 HCT/P. The FDA reserves the right to disagree, and also has voluntary procedures for obtaining an advance agency determination.
We believe the autologous stem cells that are derived from the IntelliCells™ process meet the FDA’s requirements to
be regulated solely as 361 HCT/Ps, and have proceeded to market on that basis.
The regulatory
requirements of 21 C.F.R. Part 1271 applicable to HCT/Ps include the following:
● |
registration
and listing of HCT/Ps with the FDA; |
|
|
● |
current good tissue
practices, specifically including requirements for the facilities, environmental controls, equipment, supplies and reagents,
recovery of HCT/Ps from the patient, processing, storage, labeling and document controls, and distribution and shipment of
the HCT/Ps to the laboratory, storage, or other facility; |
|
|
● |
tracking and traceability
of HCT/Ps and equipment, supplies, and reagents used in the manufacture of HCT/Ps; |
|
|
● |
adverse event
reporting; |
|
|
● |
FDA inspection; |
|
|
● |
importation of
HCT/Ps; and |
|
|
● |
abiding by any
FDA order of retention, recall, destruction, and cessation of manufacturing of HCT/Ps. |
We believe
the donor screening requirements in Part 1271 do not apply because our product is made from autologous tissue.
Possible
Additional FDA Device, Drug, or Biologic Regulatory Requirements
On March
13, 2012, the Company received a regulatory Warning Letter from FDA regarding the Intellicell™ process. A Warning Letter
is an FDA notification to a regulated company that the Agency believes the company to have violated the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (“FDC Act”), but it is not considered final agency enforcement action. The March Warning Letter stated
that FDA believed the Intellicell™ process to be a new drug or a biologic product requiring a new drug application (“NDA”)
or biologics license application ("BLA"). This was based on statements that the Agency believed that the
Company was using adipose tissues for non-homologous use, and that these cells were more than minimally manipulated. Such
products would not be considered HCT/Ps regulated solely under section 361 of the PHS Act. The Warning Letter also
noted a number of cGMP issues at the Intellicell lab facility (which the Company has since shut down and moved).
On April
2, 2012, the Company timely submitted a comprehensive response to the Warning Letter that provided a detailed explanation of the
Intellicell™ process, which uses non-adipose adult stem cells in the SVF matrix (i.e., our adult autologous vascular cells). The
letter further explained how the SVF product is used, and why it should be considered appropriate homologous use under section
361 of the PHS Act and FDA regulations at 21 C.F.R. § 1271. The response letter noted that all of the cells contained
in SVF are characteristic of vascular tissue, and are simply extracted from adipose tissue.
On November
19, 2012, the Company received a letter (the “FDA Letter”) from the FDA as part of its ongoing discussion and correspondence
with the FDA regarding a warning letter the Company received from the FDA on March 13, 2012. The FDA stated in the FDA Letter
that it believes that the Company’s process does not meet the definition of minimal manipulation, does not fall within the
definition of homologous use of the adipose tissue and is not the same surgical procedure under 21 CFR 1271.3(f)(1), 21 CFR 1271.10(a)(2)
and 21 CFR 1271.15(b), respectively, and as such, the Company is required to have FDA approval for its product, and file an investigational
new drug (IND) application for planned in-human clinical studies. In December 2012, the Company filed an appeal with FDA
under 21 CFR 1075 for internal review of the FDA’s decisions. The Company has made every effort to comply
with FDA requirements for human cell and tissue products (“HCT/Ps”) that are not subject to FDA pre-approval and it
continues to believe that its product/process is compliant with currently FDA requirements.
The response
letter also notified FDA that we were opening a new facility that would be fully cGMP compliant, and that the Company had retained
several expert consultants to assist in quality and regulatory compliance. We believe that the steps we have taken should resolve
the FDA regulatory issues noted in the Warning Letter; however, there is no guarantee that FDA will agree with our position on
the regulatory status of the AAVC product or on cGMP compliance.
If the FDA
were to disagree with our conclusion that IntelliCells™ qualify as a 361 HCT/P, then IntelliCells™ could be subject
to additional FDA regulatory requirements applicable to medical devices or drugs under the FDC Act or biological products under
Section 351 of the PHS Act and implementing regulations, depending upon which of these categories FDA concluded applies to IntelliCells™.
The
Company underwent a thorough inspection by the FDA from May 14, 2013 through June 2, 2013, of its cellular laboratory facility.
The observations from the FDA inspection were provided to the company in the Form 483. The Company has responded to those observations
in a timely manner. IntelliCell has taken the necessary actions to address the relevant observations of the FDA inspection.
Medical
Device Regulation
The FDA
regulates the design/development process, clinical testing, manufacture, safety, labeling, sale, distribution, and promotion of
medical devices under the FDC Act. Included among these regulations are premarket clearance and premarket approval requirements,
and the Quality System Regulation (which imposes Good Manufacturing Practice requirements). Other statutory and regulatory requirements
govern, among other things, registration and inspection, medical device listing, prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration,
labeling, and post-market reporting.
The regulatory
clearance/approval process can be lengthy, expensive, and uncertain. Unless an exemption applies, any medical device that we would
bring to market must first receive either premarket notification clearance (by making a 510(k) submission) or premarket approval
(by filing a premarket approval application (“PMA”)) from the FDA pursuant to the FDC Act. In addition, certain modifications
made to marketed devices also may require 510(k) clearance or approval of a PMA supplement. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance process
usually takes from four to twelve months, but it may take longer. The process of obtaining PMA approval is much more costly and
uncertain and may take one or more years from the time the process is initiated. We cannot be sure that 510(k) clearance or PMA
approval will be obtained for any product that we propose to market.
A clinical
study in support of a PMA application or 510(k) submission for a “significant risk” device requires an Investigational
Device Exemption (“IDE”) application approved in advance by the FDA for a limited number of patients. The IDE application
must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results. If the device presents a “non-significant
risk” to the patient, a sponsor may begin the clinical study without the need for FDA approval. In all cases, the clinical
study must be conducted under the auspices of an Institutional Review Board (“IRB”) pursuant to the FDA’s regulatory
requirements intended for the protection of subjects and to assure the integrity and validity of the data.
Medical
devices are subject to post-market reporting requirements when the device may have caused or contributed to the death or serious
injury, and for certain device malfunctions that would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction
were to recur. If safety or effectiveness problems occur after the product reaches the market, the FDA may take steps to prevent
or limit further marketing of the product. The FDA actively enforces regulations prohibiting marketing and promotion of devices
for indications or uses that have not been cleared or approved by the FDA. Modifications or enhancements of products that could
affect the safety or effectiveness or effect a major change in the intended use of a device that was either cleared through the
510(k) process or approved through the PMA process may require further FDA review through new 510(k) or PMA submissions.
Failure
to comply with applicable requirements can result in application integrity proceedings, fines, recalls or seizures of products,
injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspensions of production, withdrawals of existing product approvals or clearances,
refusals to approve or clear new applications or notifications, and criminal prosecution.
Drug
and Biological Product Regulation
To obtain
approval of a drug or biological product from the FDA, a company must, among other requirements, submit data supporting safety
and efficacy as well as detailed information on the manufacture and composition of the product. In most cases, this entails extensive
laboratory tests and preclinical and clinical trials. The collection of these data, as well as the preparation of applications
for review by the FDA, are costly in time and effort, and may require significant capital investment.
A company
typically conducts human clinical trials in three sequential phases, but the phases may overlap. Phase 1 trials consist of testing
of the product in a small number of patients or healthy volunteers, primarily for safety at one or more doses. Phase 2 trials,
in addition to safety, evaluate the efficacy of the product in a patient population somewhat larger than Phase 1 trials. Phase
3 trials typically involve additional testing for safety and clinical efficacy in an expanded population at geographically dispersed
test sites. A company must submit to the FDA a protocol, which must also be approved by the IRBs at the institutions participating
in the trials, prior to commencement of each clinical trial. The trials must be conducted in accordance with the FDA’s good
clinical practices. The FDA may order the temporary or permanent discontinuation of a clinical trial at any time.
To obtain
marketing authorization, a company must submit to the FDA the results of the preclinical and clinical testing, together with,
and among other things, detailed information on the manufacture and composition of the product, in the form of a NDA, or, in the
case of a biologic, a BLA. Under federal law, the submission of most NDAs and BLAs is subject to a substantial application user
fee, currently exceeding $1.5 million, and the manufacturer and/or sponsor under an approved NDA or BLA are also subject to annual
product and establishment user fees, currently exceeding $86,000 per product and $497,000 per establishment. These fees are typically
increased annually. We cannot be sure that NDA or BLA approval would be obtained for any product that we propose to market.
All approved
drug and biological products are subject to continuing regulation by the FDA, including record-keeping requirements, reporting
of adverse experiences with the product, sampling and distribution requirements, notifying the FDA and gaining its approval of
certain manufacturing or labeling changes, complying with certain electronic records and signature requirements, submitting periodic
reports to the FDA, maintaining and providing updated safety and efficacy information to the FDA, and complying with FDA promotion
and advertising requirements. Failure to comply with the statutory and regulatory requirements can subject a manufacturer to possible
legal or regulatory action, such as warning letters, suspension of manufacturing, seizure of product, injunctive action, criminal
prosecution, or civil penalties.
The FDA
may require post-marketing studies or clinical trials to develop additional information regarding the safety of a product. These
studies or trials may involve continued testing of a product and development of data, including clinical data, about the product’s
effects in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use. The FDA may require post-marketing studies
or trials to investigate known serious risks or signals of serious risks or identify unexpected serious risks and may require
periodic status reports if new safety information develops. Failure to conduct these studies in a timely manner may result in
substantial civil fines.
Drug and
biological product manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain
state agencies, and to list their products with the FDA. The FDA periodically inspects manufacturing facilities in the United
States and abroad in order to assure compliance with the applicable current good manufacturing practices (“cGMP”)
regulations and other requirements. Facilities also are subject to inspections by other federal, foreign, state, or local agencies.
In complying with the cGMP regulations, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in record-keeping and quality
control to assure that the product meets applicable specifications and other post-marketing requirements. We must ensure that
any third-party manufacturers continue to expend time, money and effort in the areas of production, quality control, record keeping
and reporting to ensure full compliance with those requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements subjects
the manufacturer to possible legal or regulatory action, such as suspension of manufacturing or recall or seizure of product.
Newly discovered
or developed safety or efficacy data may require changes to a product’s approved labeling, including the addition of new
warnings and contraindications, additional preclinical or clinical studies, or even in some instances, revocation or withdrawal
of the approval. Violations of regulatory requirements at any stage, including after approval, may result in various adverse consequences,
including the FDA’s withdrawal of an approved product from the market, other voluntary or FDA-initiated action that could
delay or restrict further marketing, and the imposition of civil fines and criminal penalties against the manufacturer and NDA
or BLA holder. Later discovery of previously unknown problems may result in restrictions on the product, manufacturer or NDA or
BLA holder, including withdrawal of the product from the market. New government requirements may be established that could delay
or prevent regulatory approval, or affect the conditions under which approved products are marketed.
State
and Local Government Regulation
Some states
and local governments regulate human tissue banking facilities and require these facilities to obtain specific licenses. Our processing
centers may be required to comply with such state laws, including becoming licensed as a tissue bank and being subject to inspection.
Some states, such as New York, California and Maryland, may require licensure of out-of-state facilities that process tissue of
residents of those states. We must obtain the applicable state licensures for our processing centers and comply with the current
and any new licensing laws that become applicable in the future.
Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act—Protection of Patient Health Information
The Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) included the Administrative Simplification provisions
that require the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) to publicize standards for the electronic
exchange, privacy, and security of health information. HHS published the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable
Health Information (“Privacy Rule”) and the Security Standards for the Protection of
Electronic Protected Health Information (“Security Rule”) to protect the privacy and security of certain
health information. The Privacy Rule addresses the use and disclosure of an individual’s protected health information by
covered entities and applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and any health care provider who transmits health information
in electronic format. In addition to these entities, the Privacy Rule also applies to business associates and requires certain
requirements to be placed in contracts between business associates and covered entities.
The Security
Rule establishes a national security standard for protecting certain health information that is held or transferred in electronic
form. The Security Rule implements the protections in the Privacy Rule by addressing the technical and non-technical safeguards
that covered entities must put in place to secure individuals’ electronic protected health information.
Companies
failing to comply with the HIPAA standards may be subject to civil money penalties or criminal prosecution. To the extent that
our business requires compliance with HIPAA, it intends to fully comply with all requirements.

ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS.
An investment
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In determining whether to purchase our common stock, an investor should carefully
consider all of the material risks described below, together with the other information contained in this report before making
a decision to purchase our securities. An investor should only purchase our securities if he or she can afford to suffer the loss
of his or her entire investment.
Risks
Relating to Our Business and Industry
We
are a development-stage company with a limited operating history, no marketed tests and substantial losses predicted for the foreseeable
future.
The Company’s
wholly-owned subsidiary commenced operations in the regenerative medicine industry in August 2010. As such, we have
a limited operating history and have not earned any profits to date. To date, we have not achieved, and we may never
achieve, revenues sufficient to offset expenses. We expect to devote substantially all of our resources to the completion of build-out
of our Ambulatory Surgical Center in New York, NY, the cell processing laboratory within that facility and develop and commercialize
our regenerative medical products.
Because
of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing and commercializing our regenerative medical products, we are
unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if ever. We may never become profitable and
you may never receive a return on an investment in our shares of common stock. An investor in our common shares must carefully
consider the substantial challenges, risks and uncertainties inherent in the attempted development and commercialization of procedures
and products in the medical, cell therapy, biotechnology and biopharmaceutical industries. We may never successfully commercialize
our regenerative medical products, and our business may fail.
Our
auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In their
report dated May 9, 2014, Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company LLP stated that our financial statements for the fiscal years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as
a going concern is an issue raised as a result of our recurring losses from operations and our net capital deficiency. We continue
to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit.
Our
regenerative medical products may not gain acceptance among physicians, healthcare professionals and third-party payors, which
could have a material impact on our future business, financial condition and operations.
Our success
will depend upon our regenerative medical products being accepted in the market. The degree of market acceptance of our tests
by physicians, healthcare professionals and third-party payers will depend on a number of factors, including:
● |
our
ability to provide acceptable evidence of clinical utility; |
|
|
● |
successful
integration into clinical practice; |
|
|
● |
availability
and advantages of alternative tests; |
|
|
● |
effectiveness
of our sales and marketing efforts and strategies; |
|
|
● |
pricing
and positive health economics; and |
|
|
● |
our
ability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage or reimbursement. |
If any tests
that we commercialize fail to gain market acceptance, our ability to generate revenue would be impaired, which could have a material
impact on our business, financial condition and operations.
Additional
financing is necessary for the implementation of our growth strategy.
We may require
additional debt and/or equity financing to pursue our growth strategy. Given our limited operating history and existing losses,
there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing. Lack of additional funding could force
us to curtail substantially our growth plans or cease of operations. Furthermore, the issuance by us of any additional securities
pursuant to any future fundraising activities undertaken by us would dilute the ownership of existing shareholders and may reduce
the price of our common stock. Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may
involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility. Our failure to successfully obtain additional
future funding may jeopardize our ability to continue our business and operations.
If
we are unable to adequately acquire and protect or enforce our intellectual property, our competitive position could be impaired.
Our commercial
success depends in part on our ability to obtain patents or rights to patents and maintain their validity, protect our trade secrets
and effectively enforce our proprietary rights or patents against infringers. Although we have filed, or have licenses to, patent
applications in respect of the technology underlying our regenerative medicine products, there are no guarantees that such patent
applications will result in issued patents, that any patents that might be issued will protect our technology or that we will
develop other patentable tests in the future. Moreover, there can be no assurance that a patent granted to us or in respect of
which we hold a license will make the related test more competitive, that third parties will not contest the protection granted
by the patent, or that the patents of third parties will not be detrimental to our commercial activities. Our failure or inability
to protect our trade secrets and proprietary know-how could impair our competitive position. There is no guarantee that other
companies will not independently develop tests similar to our regenerative products or any future tests that we develop, that
they will not imitate our tests or that our competitors will not produce tests designed to circumvent our proprietary rights.
Potential
claims alleging infringement of third party’s intellectual property by us could harm our ability to compete and result in
significant expense to us and loss of significant rights.
From time
to time, third parties may assert patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are
important to our business. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert the
efforts of our technical and management personnel, cause product shipment delays, disrupt our relationships with our customers
or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon our operating
results. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us. If a claim against us is
successful and we cannot obtain a license to the relevant technology on acceptable terms, license a substitute technology or redesign
our products to avoid infringement, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely
affected.
If
the FDA imposes device, drug, or biologic regulation on IntelliCells™, we may not be able to obtain the necessary clearance
or approval to market IntelliCells™ in a timely manner or at all. Even if we do obtain approval, the cost and delay could
materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The FDA
allows HCT/Ps (human cell and tissue products) to proceed to market without prior clearance or approval. We believe IntelliCells™
qualify under this foregoing section and under Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1271.10 (21 C.F.R. § 1271.10),
and we have not invoked FDA’s voluntary procedures for seeking a ruling. We cannot assure you that the FDA would agree with
our determination. For example, such HCT/Ps must be “minimally manipulated.” We believe that our use of ultrasound
cavitation or other physical means, rather than chemical means, to separate non-cellular material and to create IntelliCells™
qualifies as minimal manipulation. However, to our knowledge, the FDA has not publicly addressed the issue of ultrasound cavitation
and minimal manipulation, and could disagree. If the FDA were to decide that ultrasound cavitation is more than minimal manipulation,
then IntelliCells™ would no longer qualify for these exemptions.
The FDA
may disagree with the Company that using SVFC for regenerative inductions represents homologous use (same basic function) and
otherwise meet the conditions of 21 C.F.R. § 1271, If FDA were to disagree, Intellicells™ would require premarket approval
as a drug, medical device, or biological product.
If the FDA
were to disagree with our determination, or were to prospectively alter the requirements for HCT/P eligibility, the agency could
require us to stop marketing IntelliCells™ until we met burdensome and lengthy medical device, drug, or biologic premarket
clearance or approval requirements, which could include a requirement to gather extensive supporting clinical data. We do not
know if clearance or approval of our IntelliCells™ could be obtained in a timely fashion, or at all. Even if such clearance
or approval could be obtained, IntelliCells™ would be subject to more stringent level of post-market regulation as well.
If any of these events were to occur, our financial condition and results of operations and cash flows could be materially and
adversely affected.
We operate
in a highly-regulated environment and may be unable to comply with applicable federal regulations, registrations and approvals.
Failure to comply with applicable licensure, registration, and approval standards may result in a loss of licensure, registration,
and approval or other government enforcement actions.
The FDA
imposes substantial regulatory requirements upon facilities that are engaged in the recovery, processing, storage, labeling, packaging,
or distribution of HCT/Ps.
Our processing
centers will likely be required to comply with the HCT/P regulations and applicable state tissue bank regulation. Although we
do not currently intend to utilize third parties, if any third parties were retained by us to engage in the manufacture of an
HCT/P on our behalf, such third parties must also comply with the HCT/P regulations. If we or our third-party contractors fail
to register, update registration information, or comply with any HCT/P regulation, we could be subject to civil and criminal fines
and penalties and/or injunction, which could adversely affect our business. Furthermore, adverse events in the field of stem cell
therapy may result in greater governmental regulation, which could create increased expenses, potential delays, or otherwise affect
our business.
State and
local governments impose additional licensing and other requirements upon clinical laboratories and facilities that store, handle,
and process human tissue. We may not be able to obtain the necessary licensure required to conduct business in any state in a
timely manner, or at all, and the cost of compliance could adversely affect our ability to operate our business profitably.
In the United
States, we are obligated to comply with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and state privacy and security
standards. As HIPAA is amended and changed, we will incur additional compliance burdens. We may be required to spend substantial
time and money to ensure compliance with ever-changing federal and state standards as electronic and other means of transmitting
protected health information evolve. Failure to comply with HIPAA standards may subject us to civil money penalties or criminal
prosecution. To the extent that our business requires compliance with HIPAA, we intend to fully comply with all requirements.
Whether
or not the Intellicells™ are regulated as HCT/P products under the PHS Act or require some sort of FDA approval, the product
will be subject to cGMP requirements. These requirements are the minimum standards for facilities and procedures necessary
to ensure that medical products, including HCT/P products are manufactured under proper conditions. We have taken steps to make
sure that our facilities are compliant with cGMP requirements. If FDA disagrees with us on cGMP compliance, the Agency
may take regulatory action against us.
There
are risks associated with our strategy to remotely operate cGTP lab in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals.
We have
no experience in operating cGTP lab remotely in ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals,. There are numerous risks
associated with this strategy that include, but are not limited to: (i) the costs of setting up and operating such cGTP labs,
(ii) there are substantial risks associated with operating complex businesses remotely, especially one where controlling the cell
therapy lab and operations is so critical, (iii) there are risks associated with controlling growth, (iv) risks exist associated
with adverse events in one facility affecting the business as a whole, (v) there are general risks associated with growth.
We
face competition in our markets from a number of large and small companies, some of which have greater financial, research and
development, production and other resources than we have.
Our services
face competition from services which may be used as an alternative or substitute therefore. In addition we compete with several
large companies in the healthcare industry. To the extent these companies, or new entrants into the market, offer comparable services
at lower prices, our business could be adversely affected. Our competitors can be expected to continue to improve the design and
performance of their products and services and to introduce new products and services with competitive performance characteristics.
There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient resources to maintain our current competitive position. See “Description
of Business - Competition.”
The
current U.S. and global economic conditions could materially adversely affect our results of operations and business condition.
Our operations
and performance depend significantly on economic conditions. Over the past three years, the U. S. economy has experienced a prolonged
economic downturn. While economic conditions have recently improved, there is continued uncertainty regarding the timing or strength
of any economic recovery. If the current economic situation remains weak or deteriorates further, our business could be negatively
impacted by reduced demand for our services or third-party disruptions resulting from higher levels of unemployment, government
budget deficits and other adverse economic conditions. Any of these risks, among other economic factors, could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results, and the risks could become more pronounced if the problems in
the U.S. and global economies become worse.
We
are heavily dependent on our senior management, and a loss of a member of our senior management team or our failure to attract,
assimilate and retain other highly qualified personnel in the future, could harm our business.
If we lose
members of our senior management, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis, and our business could
be adversely affected. Our existing operations and continued future development depend to a significant extent upon the performance
and active participation of certain key individuals, including Steven Victor, our Chief Executive Officer, If we were to lose
Mr. Victor, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis and our financial condition and results of operations
could be materially adversely affected.
In addition,
to execute our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these employees is intense,
and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We could also experience difficulty in hiring and
retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced
personnel have greater resources than we have. If we fail to attract new personnel, or fail to retain and motivate our current
personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.
Steven
Victor, our chief executive officer, is a practicing cosmetic dermatologist and his duties as a doctor may limit the time he may
be able to spend developing our products.
Dr. Steven
Victor, our chief executive officer, is a practicing cosmetic dermatologist in New York City. Currently, Dr. Victor does
not believe his duties as a practicing physician will limit his ability to function as our sole officer or develop our products.
However, to the extent Dr. Victor’s duties as a practicing physician requires him to limit his commitment to us, it could
impact our ability develop our products which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our
current officer, directors and principal shareholders may have substantial influence over the election of the Board of Directors
and matters submitted to a stockholder vote.
Our directors,
executive officers and principal (10%) stockholders and their affiliates beneficially own approximately 8% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, our executive officers, directors, principal stockholders and certain of their affiliates may
have substantial influence on the ability to control the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of issues submitted
to our stockholders.
Our
business may be affected by factors outside of our control.
Our ability
to increase sales, and to profitably distribute and sell our products and services, is subject to a number of risks, including
changes in our business relationships with our principal distributors, competitive risks such as the entrance of additional competitors
into our markets, pricing and technological competition, risks associated with the development and marketing of new products and
services in order to remain competitive and risks associated with changing economic conditions and government regulation.
Holders
of some of our promissory notes which are now in default could, if they were to successfully enforce those notes in a law suit,
levy on our assets and have them sold to satisfy our obligations on the notes.
Part of
our debt held by promissory note holders has been assumed by Redwood Management, LLC. However, our bridge notes and our convertible
promissory notes held by some of our promissory note holders are in default, and we are not in a position to repay them. We intend
to use the proceeds of a future offering to pay off such notes. Holders of those notes could if they choose to sue on those notes,
and if they were successful in their lawsuits they could levy on our assets and have those assets sold to satisfy the amounts
we owe them.
Risks
Related to our Common Stock
There
has not been an active public market for our common stock so the price of our common stock could be volatile and could decline
following this offering at a time when you want to sell your holdings.
Our common
stock is traded on the OTCQB under the symbol SVFC. Our common stock is not actively traded and the price of our common stock
may be volatile. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock
to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:
● |
the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) has re-inspected our facility in early June and issued a 483 Report and the Company has
responded in a timely manner. They may determine that we do not currently meet the guidelines to operate
a cell therapy business or that our cell therapy treatments should be treated as a drug; |
|
|
● |
the failure of
any of our clinical studies; |
|
|
● |
market conditions
or trends related to the biotechnology, cell therapy, stem cell, pharmaceutical, medical device, diagnostics and medical services
industries, or the market in general; |
|
|
● |
announcements
of technological innovations, new commercial products, or other material events by our competitors or us; |
|
|
● |
disputes or other
developments concerning our proprietary rights; |
|
|
● |
changes in, or
failure to meet, securities analysts’ or investors’ expectations of our financial and developmental performance; |
● |
additions or departures
of key personnel; |
|
|
● |
loss of any strategic
relationship; |
|
|
● |
discussions of
our business, products, financial performance, prospects, or stock price by the financial and scientific press and online
investor communities such as chat rooms; |
|
|
● |
industry developments,
including, without limitation, changes in healthcare policies or practices or third-party reimbursement policies; |
|
|
● |
public concern
as to, and legislative action with respect to, testing or other research areas of cell therapy, stem cells, biopharmaceutical
and pharmaceutical companies, the pricing and availability of prescription drugs or the safety of drugs or drug-like products; |
|
|
● |
regulatory developments
in the United States or foreign countries; and |
|
|
● |
economic, political
and other external factors. |
In addition,
the market price for securities of life science companies, including cell therapy, stem cell, pharmaceutical and biotechnology
companies historically has been volatile, and the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and
volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may
cause the market price of our common stock to decline substantially.
Securities
class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type
of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.
Moreover,
securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating
performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other
interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.
Our
common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC, which may make it more difficult for stockholders
to sell our common stock.
The Securities
and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes
relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less
than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
● |
that
a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and |
|
|
● |
the broker or
dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny
stock to be purchased. |
In order
to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
● |
obtain
financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and |
|
|
●
|
make a reasonable
determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. |
The broker
or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating
to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
● |
sets
forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and |
|
|
● |
that the broker
or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. |
Disclosure
also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the
commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the
rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to
be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny
stocks.
The regulations
applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our common stock and could limit an investor’s ability
to sell our common stock in the secondary market.
As
an issuer of “penny stock,” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward-looking statements
does not apply to us.
Although
federal securities laws provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under
the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, we will not have the benefit
of this safe harbor protection in the event of any legal action based upon a claim that the material provided by us contained
a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary
to make the statements not misleading. Such an action could hurt our financial condition.
Because
certain of our stockholders control a significant number of shares of our common stock, they may have effective control over actions
requiring stockholder approval.
Our directors,
executive officers and principal stockholders, and their respective affiliates, beneficially own approximately 15.8% of our outstanding
shares of common stock. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, would have the ability to control the outcome of matters
submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of our assets. In addition, these stockholders, acting together, would have the ability to control the
management and affairs of our company. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership might harm the market price of our common
stock by:
● |
delaying, deferring
or preventing a change in corporate control; |
|
|
● |
impeding a merger,
consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us; or |
|
|
● |
discouraging a
potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us. |
Because
the holders of our certain of our warrants have cashless exercise rights, we may not receive proceeds from the exercise of the
outstanding warrants if the underlying shares are not registered.
The holders
of certain of our warrants, including the warrants issued in our February 2012 private placement, have cashless exercise rights,
which provide them with the ability to receive common stock with a value equal to the appreciation in the stock price over the
exercise price of the warrants being exercised. This right is not exercisable if the underlying shares are subject to an effective
registration statement. In connection with this offering, we are registering such shares of common stock for resale in order
to satisfy such obligation. However, in the event the warrants are not subject to a current and effective registration statement
on or after the one year anniversary of the date of issuance, the cashless exercise provision of the warrants will be available
to those holders of our warrants and, as a result, we will not receive proceeds from those warrants that are exercised on a cashless
basis.
Future
sales of our common stock could cause our stock price to fall.
Finance
transactions resulting in a large amount of newly issued shares that become readily tradable, or other events that cause current
stockholders to sell shares, could place downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. In addition, the lack of
a robust resale market may require a stockholder who desires to sell a large number of shares of common stock to sell the shares
in increments over time to mitigate any adverse impact of the sales on the market price of our stock.
If our stockholders
sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell for various reasons, including but not limited to the ending
of restriction on resale, the market price of our common stock could fall. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common
stock may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we
deem reasonable or appropriate. We may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert management’s
attention and harm our business.
We cannot
predict if future issuances or sales of our common stock, or the availability of our common stock for issuance or sale, will harm
the market price of our common stock or our ability to raise capital.
Any
adjustment in the conversion price of our preferred stock or the exercise price of our warrants could have a depressive effect
on our stock price and the market for our stock.
If we are
required to adjust the preferred stock conversion price or the warrant exercise price pursuant to any of the adjustment provisions
of the agreements, the adjustment or the perception that an adjustment may be required, may have a depressive effect on both our
stock price and the market for our common stock.
Failure
to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse
effect on our business and operating results and stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.
Effective
internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide
reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective
internal control environment, regardless of whether we are required to maintain such controls, could also cause investors to lose
confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price. Although we are
not aware of anything that would impact our ability to maintain effective internal controls, we have not obtained an independent
audit of our internal controls and, as a result, we are not aware of any deficiencies which would result from such an audit. Further,
at such time as we are required to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may incur significant
expenses in having our internal controls audited and in implementing any changes which are required.
We
have not paid dividends on our common stock in the past and do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable
future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.
No cash
dividends have been paid on our common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future
operations and growth. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the near future. Payment of dividends would
depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors as our board of directors may
consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment
will only occur if our stock price appreciates.
The
requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to
attract and retain qualified board members.
We
recently became a public company and subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Prior to June 2011, we had not operated as a public company and the requirements of these rules and regulations
will likely increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and
increase demand on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and
current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that
we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. For example, Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that our management report on, and our independent auditors attest to, the effectiveness
of our internal controls structure and procedures for financial reporting. Section 404 compliance may divert internal resources
and will take a significant amount of time and effort to complete. We may not be able to successfully complete the procedures
and certification and attestation requirements of Section 404 by the time we will be required to do so. If we fail to do
so, or if in the future our chief executive officer, chief financial officer or independent registered public accounting firm
determines that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as defined under Section 404, we could be
subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company
may suffer, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our common stock. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404,
any failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results of operations and harm our reputation.
If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting or financial
results and could result in an adverse opinion on internal controls from our independent auditors. We may need to hire a number
of additional employees with public accounting and disclosure experience in order to meet our ongoing obligations as a public
company, which will increase costs. Our management team and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to
new compliance initiatives and to meeting the obligations that are associated with being a public company, which may divert attention
from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, because our management team has limited experience managing a public company, we may not successfully or efficiently
manage our transition into a public company.
If
securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they change their recommendations
regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading
market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about
us or our business. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by industry or financial analysts. If no or
few analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock would likely decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage,
if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these
analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets,
which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

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

3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time
to time we may be a defendant or plaintiff in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. Except as
described below, we know of no material, active, pending or threatened proceeding against us or our subsidiaries, nor are we,
or any subsidiary, involved as a plaintiff or defendant in any material proceeding or pending litigation.
On
March 17, 2014, Dean E. Miller, as representative shareholder, on behalf of the nominal defendant Intellicell Biosciences, Inc.,
filed a shareholder’s derivative action against Steven Victor, MD, in his capacity as Chairman - CEO and individually,
Anna Rhodes as former Executive Vice President and individually, Leonard L. Mazur as interim Chief Operating Officer and individually,
Myron Holubiak as a Director and individually, Michael Hershman, as Chairman of the Board of Directors and individually,
Stuart Goldfarb as a former Director and individually, Victor Dermatology & Rejuvenation, P.C., Victor Cosmeceuticals,
Inc., Lasersculpt, Inc., and the Doe Entities 1-5, as defendants, and Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., as nominal-defendant. The
complaint, which was filed on the aforementioned date with the United States District Court Southern District of New York, alleges
that the Company has failed to comply with US Food and Drug Administration and United States Patent and Trade Office regulations.
The allegations in the complaint include, but are not limited to, allegations involving fraud, negligence, false reporting, and
mismanagement of laboratory facilities. Pursuant to the complaint, the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000.00. Furthermore,
the complaint as filed lists the following counts: 1. Against the individual defendants for breach of their fiduciary duties in
connection with their management of the Company; 2. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty in connection
with disseminating false information; 3. Against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty for failing to design
and implement adequate internal controls; 4. Request for injunctive relief; 5. Imposition of constructive trust/accounting; and
6. Appointment of referee injunctive relief. The Company believes that such allegations and claims are without merit and intends
to vigorously defend such allegations and claims. Because the inquiry is in its initial stages, the Company is not currently able
to predict the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, or the amount of any possible loss in the event of an unfavorable
outcome. Consequently, no material provision or liability has been recorded for such allegations and claims as of December 31,
2013. However, management is confident in its defenses to such allegations and claims.
On
March 11, 2014, Steven A. Victor (“Dr. Victor”), Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Intellicell
Biosciences Inc., a New York corporation, and Regen Medical P.C., a New York corporation filed a complaint against Jonathan Schwartz
(“Schwarz”), Joseph P. Salvani (“Salvani”) and Douglas R. Dollinger (“Dollinger”), in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. Schwartz and Salvani, both shareholders of the Company, are represented
by Dollinger in his capacity as legal counsel. Pursuant to the complaint, the plaintiffs’ first cause of action alleges
that the defendants conspired together and acted in concert, to defame Dr. Victor and the Company in an effort to take control
of the Company and to reap large profits by dumping their shares thereafter. Furthermore, the plaintiffs’ second cause of
action alleges that Salvani made false statements to a potential investor, resulting in damages amounting to $250,000.00. The
plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, together with punitive damages and interest in connection with the first cause of action,
and compensatory damages in the amount of $250,000.00, together with punitive damages and interest, in connection with the second
cause of action.
Ironridge
Litigation
On August
8, 2013, a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed along with a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order
(the “Motion”) before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) under
the caption Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index
No. 652800/13. The Motion sought to restrain the sale of the Company’s assets.
As
previously reported, on July 15, 2013, while the Company was finalizing an amendment and waiver to that certain Convertible Promissory
Note (the “Note”) issued by the Company in favor of TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) on June
7, 2012 in the principal amount of $500,000, the Company was advised that Ironridge Global IV, LTD (“Ironridge”),
led by Mr. John C. Kirkland, Esq., purportedly purchased the Note from TCA. The Complaint and Motion alleged that Ironridge
and TCA each served the Company with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of
the same assets.
Given
that Ironridge and TCA asserted that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion
sought to temporarily restrain both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court,
New York County, issued a written Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary
Restraining Order”).
On
August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing
on the Motion was held, at which time the Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of
$535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting
the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant to that certain Equity Facility Agreement. Since TCA admitted
in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check
and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice
Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court that, with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's
obligations under the transaction documents have now been satisfied in full.
In
addition, the Court found Ironridge’s jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New
York and directed all parties to file submissions with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or
are not owed under those certain transaction documents. Judge Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining
Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place indefinitely until further order of the Court and
that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make, post or distribute any further advertisements, internet
postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto. Finally, Judge Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was
being held in escrow be immediately released.
A three
day hearing was conducted by Judge Gammerman and he ruled that Intellicell does not owe Ironridge or TCA any further payments. The
Company is awaiting a final honor by Judge Oing.
Hanover
Holdings Litigation
On
May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”), entered an order (the
“Order”) approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of an exchange pursuant to Section
3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in accordance with a stipulation of settlement
(the “Settlement Agreement”) between the Company and Hanover Holdings I, LLC, a New York limited liability company
(“Hanover”), in the matter entitled Hanover Holdings I, LLC v. Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., Case No.
651709/2013 (the “Action”). Hanover commenced the Action against the Company on May 10, 2013 to recover an aggregate
of $706,765.38 of past-due accounts payable of the Company, plus fees and costs (the “Claim”). The Order provides
for the full and final settlement of the Claim and the Action. The Settlement Agreement became effective and binding upon the
Company and Hanover upon execution of the Order by the Court on May 21, 2013.
As previously
disclosed, on May 23, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover 8,500,000 shares (the “Initial Settlement Shares”)
of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”).
The
Settlement Agreement provides that the Initial Settlement Shares will be subject to adjustment on the trading day immediately
following the Calculation Period (as defined below) to reflect the intention of the parties that the total number of shares of
Common Stock to be issued to Hanover pursuant to the Settlement Agreement be based upon a specified discount to the trading volume
weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the Common Stock for a specified period of time subsequent to the Court’s
entry of the Order. Specifically, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Hanover pursuant to the Settlement
Agreement shall be equal to the sum of: (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) $706,765.38 by (B) 55% of the average of the
lowest 10 VWAPs of the Common Stock over the 80-consecutive trading day period immediately following the date of issuance of the
Initial Settlement Shares (or such shorter trading-day period as may be determined by Hanover in its sole discretion by delivery
of written notice to the Company) (the “Calculation Period”); (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the total
dollar amount of legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Action, which shall not exceed $57,500 (less $5,000 heretofore
paid by the Company) by (B) the VWAP of the Common Stock over the Calculation Period; and (iii) the quotient obtained by dividing
(A) agent fees of $35,338.27 by (B) the VWAP of the Common Stock over the Calculation Period, rounded up to the nearest whole
share (the “VWAP Shares”). As a result, the Company ultimately may be required to issue to Hanover substantially more
shares of Common Stock than the number of Initial Settlement Shares issued (subject to the limitations described below). The Settlement
Agreement further provides that if, at any time and from time to time during the Calculation Period, Hanover reasonably believes
that the total number of Settlement Shares previously issued to Hanover shall be less than the total number of VWAP Shares to
be issued to Hanover or its designee in connection with the Settlement Agreement, Hanover may, in its sole discretion, deliver
one or more written notices to the Company, at any time and from time to time during the Calculation Period, requesting that a
specified number of additional shares of Common Stock promptly be issued and delivered to Hanover or its designee (subject to
the limitations described below), and the Company will upon such request reserve and issue the number of additional shares of
Common Stock requested to be so issued and delivered in the notice (all of such additional shares of Common Stock, “Additional
Settlement Shares”). At the end of the Calculation Period, (i) if the number of VWAP Shares exceeds the number of Initial
Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares issued, then the Company will issue to Hanover or its designee additional shares
of Common Stock equal to the difference between the number of VWAP Shares and the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional
Settlement Shares, and (ii) if the number of VWAP Shares is less than the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement
Shares issued, then Hanover or its designee will return to the Company for cancellation that number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the difference between the number of VWAP Shares and the number of Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement
Shares. Hanover may sell the shares of Common Stock issued to it or its designee in connection with the Settlement Agreement at
any time without restriction, even during the Calculation Period.
The
Settlement Agreement provides that in no event shall the number of shares of Common Stock issued to Hanover or its designee in
connection with the Settlement Agreement, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Hanover
and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder), result in the beneficial ownership by Hanover and its affiliates (as calculated
pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) at any time of more than 9.99% of the
Common Stock.
As
previously disclosed, between June 17, 2013 and December 16, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover an aggregate of
87,266,171 Additional Settlement Shares pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order.
Since
the issuance of the Initial Settlement Shares and Additional Settlement Shares described above, Hanover demonstrated to the Company’s
satisfaction that it was entitled to receive another 6,009,817 Additional Settlement Shares, based on the adjustment formula described
above, and that the issuance of such Additional Settlement Shares to Hanover would not result in Hanover exceeding the beneficial
ownership limitation set forth above. Accordingly, on December 27, 2013, the Company issued and delivered to Hanover another 6,009,817
Additional Settlement Shares pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order.
The
issuance of Common Stock to Hanover pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement approved by the Order is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof, as an issuance of securities in exchange
for bona fide outstanding claims, where the terms and conditions of such issuance are approved by a court after a hearing upon
the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all persons to whom it is proposed to issue securities in such exchange shall
have the right to appear.
Corcon
Litigation
On
February 27, 2013, JKT Construction Inc. d/b/a/ Corcon (“Corcon”) filed a complaint (the “Corcon Complaint”)
against, among other parties, the Company and Dr. Victor, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Case No. 151778/2013,
alleging, among other things, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit and foreclosure on a mechanic’s lien
related to work performed in the build out of the Company’s office’s located at 460 Park Avenue, 17th Floor,
new York, New York 10022 (the “Property”). Corcon is seeking, among other things, that their claims
be determined to be a valid lien against the Property and that they be able to foreclose on and sell the Property, a judgment
for any deficiency against, among other parties, the Company and Dr. Victor and an amount of compensatory damages not less than
$442,334.03, plus interest, costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses.
On May 1,
2013, he entered into an agreement (the “Corcon Agreement”) with Corcon (“Corcon”) to settle the litigation
matter between the Company and Corcon (the “Corcon Litigation”) relating to that certain debt owed Corcon in the aggregate
amount of $547,000 (the “Debt”). For additional information regarding the Corcon Litigation subject to the Corcon
Agreement see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
on March 27, 2013. Under the terms of the Corcon Agreement, Corcon has agreed to dismiss the Corcon Litigation in exchange
for receiving a payment of $475,000 (the “Purchase Price”) from Hanover Holdings I, LLC (“Hanover”) under
the terms of that certain a receivable purchase agreement (the “Corcon Receivable Purchase Agreement”). As
condition to the Corcon Agreement, Hanover and the Company entered into an agreement for Hanover to purchase various debt obligations
of, or claims against the Company and to file a civil action under Section 3(a)(10) (the “3(a)(10) Transaction”)
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Further, as a material inducement to enter into the Corcon Agreement, the
Company agreed to escrow 19,000,000 shares of its common stock to be issued to Corcon in the event the 3(a)(10) Transaction was
not approved and Purchase Price was not received. On May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County
of New York, entered an order approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the 3(a)(10) Transaction
as previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 24, 2013.
The Corcon
Litigation was dismissed on May 10, 2013. And the 19,000,000 shares have been returned to the Company’s treasury.
Bluming
Litigation
On
February 14, 2013, the Company was served with notice that on February 13, 2013, Menachem M. Bluming (“Bluming”) filed
a complaint (the “Bluming Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Case
No. 13-cv-0978-CM, alleging, among other things, breach of contract, unjust enrichment and debt owed against the Company, in connection
with, that certain promissory note, dated June 3, 2011, in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000. Bluming
is seeking, among other things, an amount not less than $680,000, representing the principal amount, interest, attorneys’
fees and expenses. The Company is currently working on making arrangements to honor its obligations under these notes,
however, there can be no assurance that any such arrangements will ever materialize or be permissible or sufficient to cover any
or all of the obligations under these notes.
On
May 8, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”)
with Mendel Bluming (“Bluming”) to settle the previously disclosed litigation matter between the Company and Bluming
(the “Bluming Litigation”) relating to that certain promissory note, dated June 3, 2011, in the aggregate principal
amount of $500,000 (the “Note”). Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Bluming has agreed to dismiss
the Bluming Litigation and defer the Company’s obligations under the Note for a period of one year from the Effective Date
(the “Deferral”), in exchange for receiving a payment of $35,000 from Hanover under the terms of that certain receivable
purchase agreement for attorney’s fees owed by the Company to Bluming under the Note. As condition to the Settlement
Agreement, Hanover and the Company entered into an agreement for Hanover to purchase various debt obligations of, or claims against
the Company and to file a civil action under Section 3(a)(10) Transaction. On May 21, 2013, the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of New York, entered an order approving, among other things, the fairness of the terms and conditions
of the 3(a)(10) Transaction. In further consideration for the Deferral, the Company has agreed to give Bluming (i)
an aggregate of 32,479 shares of the Company’s common stock; (ii) piggy back registration rights on all shares issued to
Bluming and on the shares underlying that certain warrant certificate for 1,108,860 shares of the Company’s common stock;
and (iii) an option to purchase 233,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at price of $0.15 per share, vesting immediately
and expiring on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.
The Bluming
Litigation was dismissed on May 24, 2013.

In
February 2013, the Company was served with notice that on October 13, 2011, Sherb & Co. LLP (“Sherb”) filed a

alleging, among other things, breach of contract, and debt owed against the Company, in connection with accounting and audit services
performed from May 12, 2010 through May 31, 2011. Sherb is seeking, among other things, an amount not less than
$88,508 plus interest. This has been turned into note assumed by MD Global Advisors.
Cragmont
Litigation
On August
21, 2012, a complaint for damages was filed by Ethan Einwohner and Cragmont Capital, LLC (collectively, “Cragmont”)
in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 652924/2012, alleging, among other things, quantum
meruit, unjust enrichment, fraud and breach of contract related to alleged services performed by Cragmont on behalf of the Company.
The parties entered into a stipulation whereby Craigmont withdrew and dismissed the claim for fraud. The complaint
was amended to add Recurrent Capital LLC as a plaintiff. Cragmont is seeking, among other things, damages of at least
$100,400 plus interest, costs and disbursements.
BFA Litigation
On August

Court of the 15 th Judicial Circuit In and For Palm Beach County, Florida (the “FL Court”), Case No. 50-2011-CA-012551-XXXX-MB
(AE), alleging, among other things, breach of contract under the letter retainer agreement, dated on or about May 16, 2011, by
and between the Company and Plaintiff (the “BFA Agreement”). BFA sought, among other things, damages
of $55,829.00, prejudgment interest and court costs. On December 20, 2011, a default judgment was entered against the Company
for a total of $58,135.74 plus post-judgment interest. In November 2012, the parties entered into a stipulation for
settlement and garnishment whereby BFA agreed to accept $58,135.74 in full settlement of all amounts owed to BFA in full settlement
of all claims against the Company.
The results
of any litigation are inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that we will prevail in the litigation matter stated
above or otherwise. We plan to pursue our claims and defenses vigorously and expect that the litigation matter discussed above

2013 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2012
Revenue
Revenue for the year ended December
31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $534,972, respectively. Revenues in 2012 were attributable to fees from cases processed by licensees
which were primarily related party revenue of $514,000 earned in accordance with the Regen Medical technology license and administrative
services agreement dated April 16, 2012. We intend to engage in a multi-pronged approach with respect to the utilization and commercialization
of our proprietary process that will involve entering into technology licensing agreements and related service agreements with
physicians, physician practice groups, hospitals and ambulatory service centers located in the United States. We will also be seeking
to enter into technology licensing agreements that cover a particular international territory or country. In addition, we will
also be seeking to establish “Centers of Excellence” in conjunction with physicians under an arrangement whereby we
are appointed the exclusive managing agent for the professional corporation in exchange for the grant of a license to the professional
corporation to utilize our proprietary process. Depending upon the arrangement involved, we will be collecting some combination
of fees from licensing, processing, service, and management, as well as up-front territorial licensing fees.
License fees will generally be
payable upon signing of a license agreement and will be recognized as revenue ratably over the appropriate period of time to which
the revenue item relates.

The value of the warrants and non-employee
stock options were determined using the Black Scholes method, the details of which are more fully explained within the notes to
the financial statements.
Changes in Fair Value of Derivative
Liability
The Company has issued various instruments
(as detailed below) which are accounted for as derivative liabilities and are valued at fair value at the date of issuance and
at each balance sheet date. The change in value of these instruments is recorded as a charge (or as income). During the years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded an expense in the amount of $2 ,944,351 and income in the amount
of $13,804,271, respectively, relating to the change in value of all its derivative liabilities.
The instruments with derivative properties
are as follows:
Convertible Debt - Derivative Liabilities
In May 2011, IntelliCell completed a
convertible debt offering aggregating $1,385,000. The units offered consist of a $50,000 subordinated convertible debenture payable
one year from the date of issue with interest at a rate of 6% and convertible, at the option of the holder, into the Company’s
common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.72 per share. Each unit also included a detachable five (5) year warrant to purchase
57,143 shares of IntelliCell’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.72 per share. The proceeds from the issuance
of convertible debt securities with detachable warrants were allocated between the warrants and the debt security. The discount
is being amortized over the life of the debt. As of December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an original issue discount of $288,564
related to the value of the warrants that will be amortized as interest expense over the initial one year term of the convertible
debentures. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has recognized $216,422 of interest expense as a result of such amortization.
The Company accounted for the conversion
features underlying the convertible debentures an issued in accordance with GAAP, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible
debentures could result in the debentures being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company
determined the value of the derivate conversion features of these debentures issued during the year ended December 31, 2011 at
the relevant commitment dates to be $32,209 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. The change in fair value of the liability
for the conversion feature resulted in a reduction to income of $583,837 and a reduction to income of $3,893,821 for year ended
December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which is included in the accompanying financial statements. The fair value of the derivative
conversion features was determined to be $1,051 and $587,520 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
The Company accounted for the detachable
warrants included with the convertible debentures as liabilities in accordance with GAAP, as the warrants are subject to anti-dilution
protection and could result in them being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined
the value of the derivate feature of the warrants issued during year ended December 31, 2011 at the relevant commitment dates to
be $332,401 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. The change in fair value of the liability for the warrants resulted in a
reduction to income of $382,296 and a charge to income of $9,921,400, respectively for year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively,
which is included in the accompanying financial statements. The fair value of the derivative conversion features was determined
to be $6,254 and $388,550 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
As discussed, as a result of the Company’s
Merger, and the effect of recapitalization, the exercise price of the convertible debentures and warrants was decreased from $1.72
to $.88. The subordinated convertible debentures are convertible into an aggregate of 1,561,443 shares of common stock and
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,071,542 shares of common stock.
Common Stock Offering - Derivative
Liabilities
In February 2012, the Company entered
into securities purchase agreements with accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company sold (i) an aggregate of 2,600,000
shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) class A warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 5,200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class A Warrants”), and (iii) class B warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 5,200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class B Warrants” and together with the Class A Warrants,
the “Warrants”), for aggregate gross cash proceeds of $2,627,649, which consisted of $2,100,000 of cash and the exchange
and cancelation of a promissory note (bearing principal and interest totaling $527,549) and a warrant ("Exchange Agreement").
The Class A Warrants are exercisable
for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $2.00, subject to adjustment. The Class B
Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $3.75, subject to
adjustment. The exercise price of the Warrants were subject to anti-dilution protection if shares or share-indexed financing instruments
were sold at less than the stated conversion prices.
Therefore, the associated conversion
feature requires liability classification under GAAP which is carried at their fair value to be reevaluated each reporting
period. We estimate their fair value as a common stock equivalent, enhanced by the forward elements (coupon, puts, and calls),
because that technique embodies all of the assumptions (including credit risk, interest risk, stock price volatility and conversion
behavior estimates) that are necessary to determine the fair value of this type of financial instrument.
We determined the value of the derivative
conversion features of these debentures issued at the relevant commitment dates to be $19,036,312 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation
model.
Between September 5, 2012 and October
11, 2012, the February 2012 investors (including the investor that exchanged and cancelled his outstanding promissory note) agreed
to certain amendments to their securities purchase agreement and exchange their respective Warrants for (i) an aggregate
of 6,100,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (ii) a new series A warrant to purchase an aggregate of 6,100,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of seventy-five cents ($0.75) per share and (iii) a new series B warrant to purchase
an aggregate of 6,100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of seventy-five cents ($0.75) per share.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had 100,000
Class A and 100,000 Class B warrants outstanding, these warrants were not exchanged and retained their anti-dilutive properties.
The value of the derivative liability associated with the conversion feature of these warrants were $482 and $10,950 for the years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Loss before income tax and Net
Loss
Loss before income tax for the years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $ 15,868,039 and $4,151,891, respectively, which includes a charge for the non-cash
change in fair value of derivative liabilities and other expense of $2, 944,351 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and
a reduction of charges for the non-cash change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $13,804,271 for the year end December
31, 2012. Furthermore, loss before income tax for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 included non-cash charges of $4,300,899
and $0 for financing costs for convertible debt issuances, non-cash expense for Employee Stock Compensation of $1,386,765
and $2,333,922, non-cash expense for Non-Employee Stock Based Compensation of $0 and $8,298,732, and stock based financing costs
of $305,112 and $3,041,660, respectively, as discussed above. As we are just beginning to implement our business strategy
we anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the next several calendar quarters until such time as we have
been able to establish a sufficient number of licensees generating licensing, processing, service, and management fees to us,
as well as up-front territorial licensing fees, sufficient to cover our operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had a working capital deficit as
of December 31, 2013 of $ 8,527,193 , compared to a working capital deficit at December 31, 2012 of $6,687,734.
Our cash and cash equivalents as December
31, 2013 was $0, compared to cash balances at December 31, 2012 of $10,159. We are in the early stages of the implementation of
our business strategy and anticipate we will require additional cash to fund our operations for the next twelve months inclusive
of costs associated with attracting, training and acquiring laboratory equipment for licensees, costs associated with the conducting
of clinical research needed to establish and protect the therapeutic benefits of our technologies, costs associated with the development
and marketing and promotional and educational materials relative to our services and costs associated with building out the infrastructure
necessary to manage and control our business. In the near term, we plan to utilize our existing limited cash balances and proceeds
from licensing, processing, service, and management fees to us, as well as up-front territorial licensing fees, and additional
debt and equity based financings to maintain our operations.
Based on our current cash and cash equivalents
levels and expected cash flow from operations, we believe our current cash position is not sufficient to fund our cash requirements
during the next twelve months, including operations and capital expenditures. We intend to license our proprietary technology and
services or obtain equity and/or debt financing to support our current and proposed operations and capital expenditures. We cannot
assure that continued funding will be available. There can be no assurance, however, that any such opportunities may arise, or
that any such acquisitions may be consummated. Additional financing may not be available on satisfactory terms when required. To
the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. We
currently have no firm commitments for any additional capital. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising
the funds required. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our
operations.
Net cash from operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities
was $1,159,641 and $1,064,556 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Cash was used primarily to fund our
operating losses exclusive of non-cash expenditures such as stock compensation for services and changes in the fair value of our
derivative liabilities. For the year ended December 31, 2013, operating activities were impacted by increases in our accounts payable
of $1,608,004, and $1,775,489 in increases in loss on conversion of accounts payable to common stock.
Net cash from investing activities
Net cash provided by (used in) investing
activities was $219,158 and $(2,747,072) for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which includes a write-off
of $12,240 in office furniture in the year ended December 31, 2013 and $929,457 for the purchase of office furniture and equipment
and lab equipment for the year ended December 31, 2012. Additionally, there was a write-off of $275,000 and additional
costs of $1,532,181 for Construction-in-progress costs for the lease build-out in our new corporate and operations facility, respectively,
in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Furthermore, $93,175 and $285,434 of net advances were due from Regen
Medical, and the Company had an increase in restricted cash for the security deposit on their lease of $124,547 and $0, respectively
during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Net cash from financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities
was $930,324 and $3,711,593 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, consisting of $0 and $2,766,050 of net
proceeds received from the sale of our common stock, $0 and $230,000 of gross proceeds from our Series D preferred stock offering,
and $416,000 and $0 of gross proceeds from our convertible note offering, respectively. Additionally, the Company received
net related party advances from Dr. Victor in the amount of $414,324 and $113,976, convertible debentures of $100,000 and
$0, and notes payable of a net $0 and $601,567 for the year end December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

the Intellicell Notes, we notified the holders of their right to have the Intellicell Notes repaid upon completion of our recent
equity financing (pursuant to which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $2,627,549, which consisted of $2,100,000 of

the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”) under the caption Intellicell
Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index No. 652800/13. The Motion sought

As previously reported, on July 15,

with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of the same assets.
Given that Ironridge and TCA asserted
that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion sought to temporarily restrain
both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court, New York County, issued a written
Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary Restraining Order”).
On August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s
best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing on the Motion was held, at which time the
Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of $535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal
and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant
to that certain Equity Facility Agreement. Since TCA admitted in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest
in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in
open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court
that, with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's obligations under the transaction documents have
now been satisfied in full.
In addition, the Court found Ironridge’s
jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New York and directed all parties to file submissions
with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or are not owed under those certain transaction documents. Judge
Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place
indefinitely until further order of the Court and that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make,
post or distribute any further advertisements, internet postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto. Finally, Judge
Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was being held in escrow be immediately released.

ITEM
8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
The
full text of our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, begins on page F-1
of this amended annual report on Form 10-K /A .
ITEM
9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
We do not
have any changes in or disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.
ITEM
9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
On
or about August 29, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Company’s management and
after discussions with the Company’s current and former independent registered public accounting firms, concluded that the
quarterly financial statements filed on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and the annual financial
statements filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as previously issued should no longer be relied upon and will
be restated.
This
amended annual report on Form 10-K/A reflects certain corrections made in connection with the Company’s accounting
for the application of fair value assessment for transactions involving derivative obligations related to the issuance
of convertible debt instruments. The transactions include (1) derivative valuation at inception of the debt instrument, (2)
upon conversion of the instrument to common stock, (3) upon assignment of the debt instrument and (4) upon valuation of the
derivative at December 31, 2013. The Company also detected errors in the recording of debt discounts, upon issuance of
debt instruments. These incorrectly recorded debt discounts also affected amortization expense for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2013.
This
restatement has impacted the Company’s CEO and accounting professionals original conclusions regarding the
effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting by further demonstrating
the need for the Company to segregate duties and develop a stronger internal control environment. The Company is planning to
further segregate duties related to internal controls over financial reporting as it increases its number of employees. The
Company plans to hire additional employees in 2015 to change its disclosure controls and procedures and prevent future
misstatements of a similar nature.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried
out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,
means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its
principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, because of our limited resources and limited number of employees,
management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2013.
Management
has identified control deficiencies regarding the lack of segregation of duties and the need for a stronger internal control environment.
Management believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of our accounting staff. The small size
of our accounting staff may prevent adequate controls in the future, such as segregation of duties, due to the cost/benefit of
such remediation.
To mitigate
the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with
the use of external legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will
enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.
These control deficiencies could
result in a misstatement of account balances that would result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our
consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In light of this material weakness, we performed
additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2013 included in this amended annual report on Form 10-K /A were fairly stated in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly,
management believes that despite our material weaknesses, our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2013 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, which consists of our
Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), as supplemented by the COSO publication Internal
Control over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies . Based on their evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective
as of December 31, 2013 for the deficiencies set forth above.
This amended annual report
does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to such attestation pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
that permits us to provide only management’s report in this amended annual report.
Limitations
on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures
or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact
that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent
limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances
of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities
that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally,
controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override
of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may
occur and not be detected.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No changes
in our internal control over financial reporting have come to management's attention during our last fiscal quarter that have
materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Stockholder and Board of Directors of
IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
financial statement of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary, which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013
and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for
the years then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the
Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation
and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to
obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation
of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc.
and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then
ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements of IntelliCell BioSciences, Inc. and Subsidiary has been restated as of December 31, 2013 and
for the year then ended to reflect to correction of an error during the third and fourth quarters of 2013 in the Company’s
accounting for the fair value assessment of transactions involving derivative obligations related to the issuance of convertible
debt instruments.

Formation
IntelliCell

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

was amended on June 3, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, a subsidiary
of MEG (“Merger Sub”) merged into IntelliCell. The Merger Sub ceased to exist as a corporation and IntelliCell
continued as the surviving corporate entity. As a result of the merger, MEG’s former shareholders acquired majority

shareholder of IntelliCell and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), exchanged an aggregate of 10,575,482 shares of IntelliCell’s
common stock for an aggregate of 20,521 shares of the Company’s series B preferred stock. Each share of series B preferred
stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the holders of the series B preferred
stock are entitled to notice of stockholders’ meetings and to vote as a single class with the holders of the Common Stock
on any matter submitted to the stockholders for a vote, and are entitled to the number of votes equal the product of (a) the number
of shares of Common Stock into which the series B preferred stock is convertible into on the record date of the vote multiplied
by (b) ten (10). The closing of the Merger took place on June 3, 2011 (the “Closing Date”).
Prior

to the Company, comprised of accrued compensation in the amount of $1,201,551, promissory notes in the principal amount of $263,707
plus accrued interest of $9,398 less unamortized debt discounts of $83,264 and accrued expenses totaling $228,414 in exchange

Restatement
of Previously Issued Financial Statements |
Subsequent
to the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company identified errors in accounting for the application
of fair value assessment for transactions involving derivative obligations, including derivative valuation at inception, conversion,
assignment and period end. The Company also detected errors in the recording of debt discounts. The Company has assessed the impact
of the accounting errors on its 3rd quarter 2013 financial statements, year-end December 31, 2013 financial statements
and 1st quarter 2014 financial statements, and concluded that, although there was no impact on the Company’s
cash position, the effect on its financial statements was material.
The
impact on the Company’s balance sheets was to restate the balance sheet items of Notes Payables, Convertible Notes Payable
Convertible Debentures Payable, additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit for the three periods of September 30, 2013,
December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014.
In
addition, the items restated on the statements of income (loss) were financing costs, gain/(loss) on conversions of debt to equity,
and change in fair value of derivative liabilities.
The tables below summarize the impact of
the restatement from amounts previously reported on the Company’s Form 10-Q for the periods ended September 30, 2013 and
March 31, 2014 and Form 10K for the period ended December 31, 2013.

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

Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis
of Presentation
The
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IntelliCell and those of Tech Stem Inc., the Company’s wholly
owned subsidiary (collectively the “Company”). All significant inter-company transactions and balances
have been eliminated.
Management’s
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from these estimates. Management’s estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the
effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the periods they are determined to be necessary.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
GAAP
requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. The fair value of financial instruments is made
as of a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these
estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with
precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.
GAAP
defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required
or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal, or most advantageous market in which it would
transact, and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
GAAP
establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable
inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the degree
of subjectivity that is necessary to estimate the fair value of a financial instrument. GAAP establishes three levels of inputs
that may be used to measure fair value:
Level
1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level
2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that
are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices
for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived
valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market
data.
Level
3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant
to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Share
Based Expenses
GAAP
prescribes that accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payment awards to employees, including employee stock options,
restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities.
The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists.
A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if:
|
a) |
the
option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance, or |
|
|
|
|
b) |
the
present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the
transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity. |
With
respect to stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants GAAP requires that the amount of share-based
payment transactions be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable:
|
a) |
the
goods or services received or |
|
|
|
|
b) |
the
equity instruments issued. |
The
fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance
completion date.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company licenses independent third parties to use the Company’s technology in order to enable them to establish tissue processing
centers in major metropolitan markets, as well as establishing centers it will operate. Each center will utilize the
Company’s proprietary technology in conjunction with a suite of laboratory equipment selected by the Company that will enable
the lab to process adipose tissue into stromal vascular fraction containing adipose stem cells using the Company’s technology
and protocols. In certain centers, the Company will maintain ownership of the laboratory equipment and in other cases
the laboratory equipment will be sold to an independent party. These license fees are payable upon signing of a license
agreement and are recognized as revenue ratably over the license.
The
Company has also entered into agreements with independent sales representative organizations that will market the centers services
to physicians in the geographic area. Fees for tissue processing cases from such physicians will be collected by the
Company and recognized upon performance of the laboratory analysis. Sales of equipment by Tech Stem are recognized
when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has
occurred, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is
reasonably assured.
Concentrations
The
Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. This
potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk; however the Company believes the risk is negligible. The
Company’s carrying amount of deposits in financial institutions did not exceed federally insured limits December 31,
2013.
Certain
Risks and Uncertainties
The
Company has a limited operating history and its prospects are subject to the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by
companies in the early stages of development and commercialization, especially those companies in rapidly evolving and technologically
advanced industries such as the biotech / medical device field. The future viability of the Company largely depends
on its ability to complete development of new products and processes and maintain and/or receive regulatory approval for those
products and processes. No assurance can be given that the Company’s new processes and products will be successfully
developed, regulatory approvals will be maintained or granted, or acceptance of these processes and products by the medical and
patient communities will be achieved.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company extends credit to customers without requiring collateral. The Company provides for doubtful accounts based on management’s
evaluations of the collectability of accounts receivable. Management’s evaluation is based on the Company’s historical
collection experience and a review of past-due amounts. Based on management’s evaluation of collectability, the Company
did not require an allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company determines accounts
receivable to be delinquent when collection is past due under the agreed upon terms. Accounts receivable are written
off when it is determined that amounts are uncollectible.
Equipment
Equipment
is recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed for financial reporting purposes utilizing the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related asset or, for leasehold improvements, the shorter of the lease term or estimated
useful life.
Maintenance
and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Costs of renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Research
and Development Costs
Research
and development (“R&D”) expenses include supplies, salaries, benefits, and other headcount related
costs, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, contract and other outside service and facilities and overhead
costs. The Company expenses the costs associated with research and development activities when incurred.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. The liability method requires recognition of future tax
benefits, measured by enacted rates, attributable to deductible temporary differences between financial statement and income tax
bases of assets and liabilities to the extent that realization of such benefits is “more likely than not.” The
Company’s temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting relate primarily to receivable reserves,
depreciation expense, and operating loss carryforwards. This standard also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets
and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties
associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures.
GAAP
requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based
on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position
should be analyzed base on technical merits and on the outcome that will likely be sustained under examination.
Net
Loss per Share
Basic
net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing loss for the period by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding during the period, increased by potentially dilutive common shares ("dilutive securities")
that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities include stock options and warrants granted and convertible debt.
The Company’s loss attributable to common stockholders, along with the dilutive effect of potentially issuable common stock
due to outstanding options warrants and convertible securities cause the normal computation of diluted loss per share to be smaller
than the basic loss per share; thereby yielding a result that is counterintuitive. Consequently, the diluted loss per share amount
presented does not differ from basic loss per share due to this “anti-dilutive” effect.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior year amounts were reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

During
the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company executed various license agreements and collected an aggregate of $ 0
and $ 1,222,500 , respectively , in license fees for six centers which had not yet commenced operations as of December
31, 2013. Consequently, recognition of such revenue had been deferred pending commencement of operations. The Company
was unable to perform its obligations in regards to the licensing agreements and, accordingly, the agreements were cancelled.
The Company has classified the amounts to be returned to the former licensees as Licensee Fees Payable on the consolidated balance
sheet.
In
2013, the Company converted three different license fees outstanding into convertible debentures totaling $300,000, bringing the
total balance as of December 31, 2013 to $922,500.
Consorteum
Notes Payable
In
conjunction with the Merger, the Company assumed notes payable in the principal amount of $2,463,652 plus accrued interest of
$369,898.
Following
completion of the Merger, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Consorteum Purchase Agreement”)
with Consorteum Holdings, Inc. (“Consorteum”), an unrelated company, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell,
transfer and assign to Consorteum all of the Company’s rights, title and interests to, and agreements relating to, its digital
trading card business and platform in exchange for Consorteum assuming an aggregate principal amount of $1,864,152 of indebtedness
of the Company (the “Consorteum Notes”). Such rights include, but are not limited to, the Company’s name, phone
number and listing, reputation, relationships and other intangible assets (including its rights to any intellectual property or
proprietary technology), as well as the company’s rights under certain licensing agreements (“Digital Trading Assets”).
Also
on June 6, 2011, the Company and Consorteum entered into an amendment agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) to the
Consorteum Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, that the obligations of the Parties to
consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are subject to (i) the approval of the Board of Directors of
each of the parties, and (ii) the completion of the assignment of the Assumed Liabilities (including receipt of all the necessary
consents of the holders of all outstanding indebtedness of the Buyer).
On
June 30, 2011, the Company and Consorteum agreed to waive the requirement that the conditions precedent set forth in the Consorteum
Purchase Agreement as amended be satisfied on or before closing and each party agreed that as of the date of the Consorteum Purchase
Agreement, Consorteum would assume an aggregate of $1,477,052 of principal indebtedness plus accrued interest from the Company
totaling $250,695 less unamortized note discounts of $9,890. Upon completion of the requirements of the Consorteum Purchase Agreement
and the Amendment Agreement, the note holders who consented to the assumption of their obligations by Consorteum received shares
of Consorteum common stock in satisfaction of their notes. Included in the notes assumed by Consorteum were notes payable to former
officers and directors of the Company prior to the Merger totaling $450,000 in principal plus accrued interest of $74,935. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Consorteum agreed to provide the Company a guarantee, whereby Consorteum agrees to unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantee to the Company the prompt and complete payment, as and when due and payable (whether at stated maturity or by required
prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), of any remaining notes payable for which the Company had not received the necessary
consent as of the date of the waiver. As a result of the foregoing, the transactions contemplated by the Consorteum Purchase Agreement
closed on June 30, 2011.
Upon
completion of the Consorteum Purchase Agreement, the Company had notes payable totaling $986,600 that were not assumed in the
agreement.
During
the period ending June 30, 2012, $375,000 of the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes and accrued interest of $152,549 was
converted to common stock and warrants as part of the February 2012 private placement. Furthermore, in the year ended December
31, 2012, another $375,000 of the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes was converted to common stock and warrants.
As
of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the principal balance of the Consorteum Notes amounted to $236,600 and accrued interest amounted
to $55,688 and $41,768, respectively. These Consorteum Notes are currently in default.
Frank
Note
On
August 26, 2012, the Company entered into a secured promissory note (the “Frank Note”) with Fredrick Frank (the “August
2012 Lender”) pursuant to which the August 2012 Lender loaned the Company $200,000 that was due and payable on October 31,
2012 in accordance with the terms of the Frank Note (the “Maturity Date”). The Frank Note is secured by 500,000 shares
of the Company’s common stock. On November 6, 2012, the Company and the August 2012 Lender agreed to extend the Frank
Note until November 30, 2012. Fredrick Frank is an advisor of the Company.
In
August 2013 the Company was advised that the Frank Note and accrued interest of $18,696 was assigned to Redwood as part of Redwood
Deal #1.

unless either party notifies the other in writing of its intention not to renew the Agreement. Such a notice is to be given at
least 12 months but no more than 15 months prior to the expiration of the then current term. Either party may terminate
the Agreement, for among other things, the failure to cure a material breach of the agreement within 30 days after receipt of
written notice or in the event any state or federal laws or regulations, now existing or enacted or promulgated after the effective
date, are interpreted in such a manner as to indicate that the structure of the agreement may be in violation of any such laws
or regulations.
In consideration for the services to be provided
under the Agreement, Regen Medical is to pay the Company (i) an annual administrative fee of $600,000, payable in equal monthly

2011; provided , however , that the Base Burden Percentage shall be recalculated on January 1,
2013 and every 12 months thereafter during the term by dividing (i) the aggregate actual costs for the Regen Medical paid by the
Company during the preceding three six-month periods by (ii) the aggregate Savings or Loss is to be calculated by subtracting (a)
the aggregate actual costs for the Regen Medical paid by the Company during the preceding Period from (b) an amount equal to (I)
the Base Burden Percentage multiplied by (ii) the aggregate revenue of the Regen Medical collected by the Company during the preceding
Period (the “Burden Amount”). If the Burden Amount exceeds the Period Actual Costs (the “Savings”) or the
Period Actual Costs exceed the Burden Amount (the “Loss”), Regen Medical and the Company shall share such Savings or
Loss 65% for the account of the Regen Medical and 35% for the account of the Company. The Company recognized revenue of $0

Convertible
Debentures |
May
2011 Convertible Debenture Offering
In
May 2011, IntelliCell completed a convertible debt offering aggregating $1,385,000. The units offered consist of a
$50,000 subordinated convertible debenture payable one year from the date of issue with interest at a rate of 6% and convertible,
at the option of the holder, into the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.72 per share (the “May
2011 Debentures”). Each unit also included a detachable five (5) year warrant to purchase 57,143 shares of IntelliCell’s
common stock at an exercise price of $1.72 per share. The proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt securities
with detachable warrants were allocated between the warrants and the debt security. The discount is being amortized over the life
of the debt. As of December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an original issue discount of $288,564 related to the value of the
warrants that will be amortized as interest expense over the initial one year term of the May 2011 Debentures.
As
a result of the Company’s Merger, and the effect of recapitalization, the exercise price of the May 2011 Debentures and
warrants was decreased from $1.72 to $.88. The subordinated convertible debentures are convertible into an aggregate of 1,561,443
shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,071,542 shares of common stock.
On
May 17, 2012, the holder of an aggregate of $500,000 principal amount of IntelliCell Notes informed the Company that it is in
default and demanded repayment under the IntelliCell Notes. Pursuant to the terms of the IntelliCell Notes, upon the occurrence,
after the expiration of a cure period of fifteen (15) days with respect to monetary defaults, following the receipt by the Company
of written notice from a holder of a default in the payment of any installment of principal or interest, or any part thereof,
when due, a holder, at its election may accelerate the unpaid balance of the principal and all accrued interest due under this
Note and declare the same payable at once without further notice or demand. Upon an event of default under the IntelliCell Notes,
the holders of the IntelliCell Notes shall be entitled to, among other things (i) the principal amount of the IntelliCell Notes
along with any interest accrued but unpaid thereon and (ii) costs and expenses in connection with the collection and enforcement
under the IntelliCell Notes, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. As a result of the notice of default, the
IntelliCell Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,360,000 are immediately due and payable. The Company is currently working
with its investors on making arrangements to honor its obligations under the IntelliCell Notes, however, there can be no assurance
that any such arrangements will ever materialize or be permissible or sufficient to cover any or all of the obligations under
the IntelliCell Notes. In conjunction with the agreement arrangements with the note holders, $77,744 of accrued interest was converted
to 89,358 shares of the Company's common stock in May 2012. Furthermore, a $25,000 convertible debenture and related
accrued interest of $904 was converted to 29,436 shares of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Street, LLC Convertible Debentures

of their total convertible debentures. On October 31, 2013, the Company issued a secured convertible debenture with Hudson for
$100,000 (combined, the “Hudson Debentures”). Under the terms of the agreement, Hudson has the rights of first refusal
for a period of eighteen months from the issuance of the debenture on any issuance or sale of capital stock that the Company issues
to raise additional capital. The terms of the Hudson Debentures require repayment on the date of the note and bears a 10% simple
annual interest rate. The Hudson Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to
48.5% of the average 3 lowest trades (not on the same day) of the common stock of the 20 trading days immediately preceding the
conversion date as quoted by Bloomberg, LP. The conversion feature of the debentures have been bifurcated from the host contract
and accounted for separately as a derivative. The bifurcation of the embedded derivative created a debt discount which reduced
the book value of the $100,000 debenture and increases prospectively the amount of interest expense to be recognized over the
life of the debenture.
In
the last quarter of 2013, $189,100 of the principal balance of the Hudson Debentures were converted to 128,694,835 shares of common
stock.

Dixon, Allwin Scientific Corp. was issued a convertible debenture for $60,000. Brian Kozer, MD was issued a convertible
debenture for $160,000. The terms of these convertible debentures were the same: a maturity date of January 1, 2014,
10% simple interest calculated on a 360 day year, and a conversion rate equal to 48.5% of the average of the three lowest traded
prices (not the same day) of the common Stock, determined on the then current trading market for the Common Stock for 20 trading
days immediately preceding the Conversion Date as quoted by Bloomberg, LP. The conversion feature of the debentures have been
bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for separately as a derivative. The bifurcation of the embedded derivative created
a debt discount which reduced the book value of the $300,000 debenture and increases prospectively the amount of interest expense
to be recognized over the life of the debenture.
As of December 31, 2013, the three convertible
debentures memorializing license fees due totaled $0, net of discounts and had accrued interest of $30,000. These debentures are
currently in default.
The Company accounted for the conversion features
underlying the convertible debentures and issued in accordance with GAAP, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible
debentures could result in the debentures being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. . The fair
value of the derivative conversion features for the debentures was determined to be $1 ,828,155 and $587,520 at December
31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
As
of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the principal balance of the Company's convertible debentures were as follows:

protection and could result in them being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. . The fair value
of the derivative conversion features for the warrants was determined to be $6, 254 and $388,550 at December 31, 2013 and
2012, respectively.

created a debt discount which reduced the book value of the $250,000 note and increases prospectively the amount of interest expense
to be recognized over the life of the note.
On
October 23, 2013, Redwood assumed $125,000 of principal and $28,442 of accrued interest, which was converted to principal, from
the JJK Notes as part of Redwood Deal #4. The terms of the assumed debt remained the same.
As
of December 31, 2013, the principal balance of Redwood Deal #4 was $ 185,510, net of debt discount , and accrued interest
was $17,336.
Redwood
Deal #5
On
October 1, 2013, Redwood assumed $389,711 of total principal from the Rhodes Note, and $1,000,000 of total principal from the
Victor Note, as part of Redwood Deal #5. The terms of the assumed debt remained the same.
As
of December 31, 2013, the principal balance of Redwood Deal #5 was $1,389,711, and accrued interest was $41,691.
The Company accounted for the conversion
features underlying the convertible notes and issued in accordance with GAAP, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible
debentures could result in the debentures being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The fair
value of the derivative conversion features for the notes was determined to be $5,123,932 and $0 at December 31, 2013 and 2012,
respectively.
As
of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company's convertible notes payable and accrued interest was as follows:

Derivative
Liabilities |
The
Company has issued various financial instruments to investors that contain full ratchet anti-dilution provisions. GAAP
provides guidance on determining what types of financial instruments or embedded features in a financial instrument would cause
the financial instrument to be classified as a liability instead of equity. Under the evaluation criteria, the Company
concluded that the financial instruments that contained full ratchet anti-dilution provisions are to be treated as derivative
liabilities. GAAP requires that the fair value of these liabilities be re-measured at the end of every reporting period
with the change in value over the period reported in the statement of operations. These instruments were valued using
pricing models which incorporate the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated
life.
The
following table sets forth the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the financial instruments that are classified as
derivative liabilities as of December 31:

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

the actual income tax expense is as follows:

The
Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net deferred tax assets, because in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that these tax assets will not be realized.
The
Company’s NOL and tax credit carryovers may be significantly limited under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). NOL and tax
credit carryovers are limited under Section 382 when there is a significant “ownership change” as defined in the IRC.
During 2011 and in prior years, the Company may have experienced such ownership changes, which could impose such limitations.
The
limitation imposed by the IRC would place an annual limitation on the amount of NOL and tax credit carryovers that can
be utilized. When the Company completes the necessary studies, the amount of NOL carryovers available may be reduced significantly.
However, since the valuation allowance fully reserves for all available carryovers, the effect of the reduction would be offset
by a reduction in the valuation allowance.
The
Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the State of New York.
The
principal features of the Company's capital stock are as follows:
Series
B Preferred Stock
As
of December 31, 2013 and, 2012, the Company has designated 21,000 shares of preferred stock as Series B preferred stock, with

the holders of the series B preferred stock shall be entitled to notice of stockholders’ meeting and to vote as a single
class with the holders of the Common Stock upon any matter submitted to the stockholders for a vote, and shall be entitled to
such number of votes as shall equal the product of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the series B preferred
stock is convertible into on the record date of such vote multiplied by (b) ten (10).
Series
C Preferred Stock
As
of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has designated 13,000 shares of preferred stock as Series C preferred stock, with
a par value of $.01 per share, of which 7,250 shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. Each share of Series

the holders of the series B preferred stock shall be entitled to notice of stockholders’ meeting and to vote as a single

such number of votes as shall equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which the series B preferred stock is convertible
into on the record date.
Certain
holders of the Company’s Series C preferred stock have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert the Series
C preferred stock such that the number of shares of the Company common stock held by each of holder and its affiliates after such
conversion shall not exceed 4.99% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
Series
D Preferred Stock
As
of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has designated 500,000 shares of preferred stock as Series D preferred stock, with
a par value of $.01 per share, of which 56,500 shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. Each share of
series D convertible preferred stock is convertible at any time at an initial conversion price equal to $2.00 per share,
subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. As long as the series D preferred stock is outstanding, the conversion
price of the series D convertible preferred stock in effect shall be reduced by $0.05 for every 180 day period a share of series
D preferred stock is held by the investor. The series D convertible preferred stock automatically converts into shares
of the Company’s common stock after three years. Each share of Series D convertible preferred stock was issued
with a warrant to purchase 10 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period
of five years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $2.00, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The
exercise price of the warrants and the conversion price of the series D convertible preferred stock are subject to full ratchet
and anti-dilution adjustment for subsequent lower price issuances by the Company, as well as customary adjustments provisions
for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. However, no adjustment made shall cause the exercise price
of the series D convertible preferred stock and warrants to be less than $1.00. The holders of Series D preferred
stock have no voting rights.

experience with which to establish a basis for determining an expected life of these awards. Therefore, the Company only gave
consideration to the contractual terms and did not consider the vesting schedules, exercise patterns and pre-vesting and post-vesting
forfeitures significant to the expected life of the option award.
We
estimate the volatility of our common stock based on the calculated historical volatility of similar entities in industry, in
size and in financial leverage whose share prices are publicly available. We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes-Merton
option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining
term equal to the expected life of the award. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying
any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we use an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton
option valuation model.
There
were no options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Total
stock-based compensation expense in connection with options granted to employees recognized in the consolidated statement of operations
for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $2,213,672, respectively, net of tax effect. Total stock-based compensation
expense in connection with options granted to non-employees recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $34,930, respectively, net of tax effect. Additionally, none of the options outstanding
and unvested as of December 31, 2013 had any intrinsic value.

TCA
Default Notice
On
July 15, 2013, while the Company was finalizing an amendment and waiver to that certain Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”)
issued by the Company in favor of TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) on June 7, 2012 in the principal amount
of $500,000, the Company was advised that Ironridge Global IV, LTD (“Ironridge”), led by Mr. John C. Kirkland, Esq.,
purportedly purchased the Note from TCA. The Complaint and Motion alleged that Ironridge and TCA each served the Company
with a Notice of Foreclosure and Sale, both claiming to be the “Secured Party” of the same assets.
On
August 8, 2013, a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed along with a Motion for a Temporary Restraining
Order (the “Motion”) before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Court”)
under the caption Intellicell Biosciences, Inc. v Ironridge Global IV, LTD., and TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, Index
No. 652800/13. The Motion sought to restrain the sale of the Company’s assets.
Given
that Ironridge and TCA asserted that they would sell the secured assets of the Company at auction on August 12, 2013, the Motion
sought to temporarily restrain both parties from so doing. On August 12, 2013, Justice Sherwood, Justice of the Supreme Court,
New York County, issued a written Order granting the relief requested, thereby restraining any sale of assets (the “Temporary
Restraining Order”).
On
August 26, 2013, despite the Company’s best efforts to amicably resolve the dispute related to the Note, a subsequent hearing
on the Motion was held, at which time the Company voluntarily brought with it to Court: (i) a certified check in the amount of
$535,833.33 constituting payment of all principal and interest owed under the Note; and (ii) a stock certificate constituting
the facility fee shares owed to the Secured Party pursuant to that certain Equity Facility Agreement. Since TCA admitted
in prior court filings that it has no remaining interest in the that certain Note and Equity Facility Agreement, both the check
and the stock certificate were tendered to Ironridge in open court, and counsel for Ironridge confirmed receipt thereof to Justice
Oing directly. The company's attorneys argued in court that with the exception of possible attorney’s fees owed, the Company's
obligations under the transaction documents have now been satisfied in full.
In
addition, the Court found Ironridge’s jurisdictional argument to be unavailing and held that the case shall remain in New
York and directed all parties to file submissions with the Court on September 10, 2013, indicating why any other monies are or
are not owed under those certain transaction documents. Judge Oing further directed that the Temporary Restraining
Order restraining the sale of the Company’s assets shall remain in place indefinitely until further order of the Court and
that the auction shall not be rescheduled and that Ironridge shall not make, post or distribute any further advertisements, internet
postings, blogs or otherwise in relation thereto. Finally, Judge Oing held that the balance of the $680,000 that was
being held in escrow be immediately released.
The
Company intends to vigorously defend itself against Ironridge and Kirklands’s improper attempts to seize the Company’s
assets for not giving into Kirkland’s improper threats and demands. The Company will take all legal action necessary to
protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Company is also arranging for all outstanding principal and interest
under the Note to be paid as soon as possible.

injunctive relief. The Company believes that such allegations and claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend such
allegations and claims. Because the inquiry is in its initial stages, the Company is not currently able to predict the probability
of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, or the amount of any possible loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome. Consequently,
no material provision or liability has been recorded for such allegations and claims as of December 31, 2013. However, management
is confident in its defenses to such allegations and claims.
On
March 11, 2014, Steven A. Victor (“Dr. Victor”), Intellicell Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Intellicell
Biosciences Inc., a New York corporation, and Regen Medical P.C., a New York corporation filed a complaint against Jonathan Schwartz
(“Schwarz”), Joseph P. Salvani (“Salvani”) and Douglas R. Dollinger (“Dollinger”), in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. Schwartz and Salvani, both shareholders of the Company, are represented
by Dollinger in his capacity as legal counsel. Pursuant to the complaint, the plaintiffs’ first cause of action alleges
that the defendants conspired together and acted in concert, to defame Dr. Victor and the Company in an effort to take control
of the Company and to reap large profits by dumping their shares thereafter. Furthermore, the plaintiffs’ second cause of
action alleges that Salvani made false statements to a potential investor, resulting in damages amounting to $250,000. The plaintiffs
seek compensatory damages, together with punitive damages and interest in connection with the first cause of action, and compensatory
damages in the amount of $250,000.00, together with punitive damages and interest, in connection with the second cause of action.
On
June 24, 2014, the Company received a unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of its Series F Preferred

or the “Majority Stockholders”), holding fifty-one (51) shares of Series F Preferred Stock, resulting in the
Series F Stockholders holding in the aggregate approximately 50.99% of the total voting power of all issued and outstanding voting
capital of the Company.
On
June 24, 2014, the Board approved an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from Three Billion Five Hundred
Million (3,500,000,000) shares of Common Stock to Ten Billion (10,000,000,000) shares of Common Stock (the “Authorized
Share Increase”) and recommended to the Majority Stockholders that they approve the Authorized Share Increase.
On
June 24, 2014 (the “Record Date”), the Majority Stockholders approved the Authorized Share Increase by written
consent in lieu of a meeting in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes. Accordingly, consent of common shareholders are not
required and will not being solicited in connection with the approval of the Authorized Share Increase.
