NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by Nocopi Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”). These statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the statements and have been prepared on a consistent basis using the accounting policies described in the summary of Accounting Policies included in the Company’s 20072008 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.10-K. Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Notes to Financial Statements included in the 20072008 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB10-K should be read in conjunction with the accompanying interim financial statements. Certain amounts in the 2007 financial statements have been reclassified in order for them to be in conformity with the 2008 presentation. The interim operating results for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20082009 may not be necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.
Note 2. Management PlanGoing Concern
TheSince its inception, the Company recordedhas incurred significant losses and, as of June 30, 2009, had accumulated losses of $12,880,900.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2008,2009, the Company had negative working capital of $196,500 and stockholder’s equity. At September 30,a stockholders’ deficiency of $176,800. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company’s net loss from operations was $362,300. Due in part to the recession that has and is continuing to negatively impact the country’s economy, the Company, which is substantially dependent on its licensees to generate licensing revenues, may incur further operating losses and experience negative cash flow in the future. Achieving profitability and positive cash flow depends on the Company’s ability to generate and sustain significant increases in revenues and gross profits from its traditional business and its newly formed Loss Prevention Division. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to generate sufficient revenues and gross profits to return to and sustain profitability and positive cash flow in the future.
During 2008, the Company had no loans outstanding; however, during the third quarter of 2008, it securednegotiated a $100,000 revolving line of credit with a bank to provide working capital inas an additional potential source of capital.

At this time, management ofcapital will enable the Company to impact its revenues so as to have a material positive effect on the Company’s operations and cash flow.

Results of Operations
     The Company’s revenues are derived from (i) royalties paid by licensees of the Company’s technologies, (ii) fees for the provision of technical services to licensees and from(iii) the direct sale of (i)(a) products incorporating the Company’s technologies, such as inks, security paper and pressure sensitive labels, and (ii)(b) equipment used to support the application of the Company’s technologies, such as ink-jet printing systems. Royalties consist of guaranteed minimum royalties payable by the Company’s licensees and/or additional royalties, which typically vary with the licensee’s sales or production of products incorporating the licensed technology. Technical services, in the form of on-site or telephone consultations by members of the Company’s technical staff, may be offered to licensees of the Company’s technologies. The consulting fees are billed at agreed upon per diem or hourly rates at the time the services are rendered. Service fees and sales revenues vary directly with the number of units of service or product provided.
     The Company recognizes revenue on its lines of business as follows:
          a) License fees and royalties are recognized when the license term begins. Upon inception of the license term, revenue is recognized in a manner consistent with the nature of the transaction and the earnings process, which generally is ratably over the license term;

8


          b) Product sales are recognized (i) upon shipment of products; (ii) when the price is fixed or determinable and (iii) when collectability is reasonably assured; and
          c) Fees for technical services are recognized when (i) the service has been rendered; (ii) an arrangement exists; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable based upon a per diem or hourly rate; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
     The Company believes that, as fixed costscost reductions beyond those it has achieved in recent years may not be achievable, its operating results are substantially dependent on revenue levels. Because revenues derived from licenses and royalties carry a much higher gross profit margin than other revenues, operating results are also substantially affected by changes in revenue mix.
     Both the absolute amounts of the Company’s revenues and the mix among the various sources of revenue are subject to substantial fluctuation. The Company has a relatively small number of substantial customers rather than a large number of small customers. Accordingly, changes in the revenue received from a significant customer can have a substantial effect on the Company’s total revenue and on its revenue mix and overall financial performance. Such changes may result from a customer’s product development delays, engineering changes, changes in product marketing strategies and the like. In addition, certain customers have, from time to time, sought to renegotiate certain provisions of their license agreements and, when the Company agrees to revise terms, revenues from the customer may be affected. The addition of a substantial new customer or the loss of a substantial existing customer may also have a substantial effect on the Company’s total revenue, revenue mix and operating results.
     Revenues for the thirdsecond quarter of 2009 were $187,500 compared to $237,500 in the second quarter of 2008, were $197,900 compared to $487,000 in the third quarter of 2007, a decrease of $289,100,$50,000, or approximately 59%21%. Licenses, royalties and fees decreased by $68,800,$14,600, or approximately 39%13%, to $105,600$95,300 in the thirdsecond quarter of 20082009 from $174,400$109,900 in the thirdsecond quarter of 2007.2008. The decrease in licenses, royalties and fees is due primarily to lower licensing revenues derived from the Company’sthree licensees in the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Products business as their shipments to retail customers were significantly lower than in the same period of the previous year. Product and other sales were $92,300 in the third quarter of 2008 compared to $312,600 in the third quarter of 2007, a decrease of $220,300, or approximately 70%. In the second quarter of 2007, a new licensee in the Entertainment and Toy Products business placed initial orders with the Company for the reactive inks used in its product lines that utilize the Company’s technologies. These initial quantities of ink, along with additional purchases subsequent to the second quarter of 2007, have proven adequate to manufacture sufficient product to meet the licensee’s customer demands through the current time. The Company has not received substantial ink orders from this licensee to date in 2008. Additionally, sales of the Company’s security paper declined in the third quarter of 2008 compared to the third quarter of 2007.
     For the first nine months of 2008, revenues were $707,200, $370,900, or approximately 34%, lower than revenues of $1,078,100 in the first nine months of 2007. Licenses, royalties and fees of $409,700 in the first nine months of 2008 were $108,700, or approximately 36%, higher than $301,000 in the first nine months of 2007, due primarily to the inception during the first half of 2007 of a license arrangement with one new licensee in the Entertainment and Toy Products business from whom royalty revenues commenced in the second quarter of 2007 offset in part by the non-renewal of one license during 2007. Product and other sales declined by $479,600, or approximately 62%, to $297,500 in the first nine months of 2008 from $777,100 in the first ninetoy

monthsproducts business and lower royalties from a licensee in the retail receipt and document fraud market resulting from the conversion of 2007. As discussed above,an exclusive license to a non-exclusive license at a lower royalty rate at the first nine monthsbeginning of 2007 included initial2009 offset in part by revenues from two licenses signed in late 2008 and early 2009. The conversion to a non-exclusive license with this licensee in the retail receipt and document fraud market enables the Company to enter this market to sell its security products directly to loss prevention departments within retail businesses and chains and to license other printers who serve this market segment. Product and other sales decreased by $35,400, or approximately 28%, to $92,200 in the second quarter of 2009 from $127,600 in the second quarter of 2008. Sales of both ink and security paper declined in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008. The lower level of ink sales in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008 is due primarily to lower ink requirements of the third party printers of the Company’s reactive inks sold to a newmajor licensee in the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Productstoy products business thatdue to the licensees’ decline in sales during the current period of economic decline. The Company derived revenues of approximately $121,100 from licensees and their printers in the entertainment and toy products market in the second quarter of 2009 compared to approximately $155,700 in the second quarter of 2008. Sales of security paper also declined in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008.
     For the first six months of 2009, revenues were not repeated$301,100, $208,200, or approximately 41%, lower than revenues of $509,300 in the first ninesix months of 2008. Licenses, royalties and fees of $165,800 in the first half of 2009 were $138,300, or approximately 45%, lower than $304,100 in the first half of 2008, due primarily to the same factors that caused the revenue decline in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008. Product and other sales declined by $69,900, or approximately 34%, to $135,300 in the first half of 2009 from $205,200 in the first half of 2008. The lower level of ink sales in the first half of 2009 compared to the first half of 2008 is due primarily to lower ink requirements of the third party printers of the Company’s major licensee in the entertainment and toy products business related to the licensees’ declines in sales during the current period of economic decline. The Company derived revenues of approximately $185,600 from licensees and their printers in the entertainment and toy products market in the first half of 2009 compared to approximately $353,500 in the first half of 2008. Additionally, ink sales to the Company’s licensee in the retail receipt and document fraud market declined in the first half of 2009 compared to the first half of 2008. The Company also experienced a decline in sales of its security papers in the nine monthsfirst half of 20082009 compared to the first nine monthshalf of 2007. The Company derived approximately $119,600 and $473,100 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2008, respectively, in revenues from licensees and their printers in the Entertainment and Toy Products market compared to approximately $376,000 and $783,400 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2007, respectively. The Company believes that revenues from licensees in the Entertainment and Toy Products market will grow in future periods compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2008 as its licensees expand their lines of products utilizing the Company’s technologies, develop new and expand existing retail outlets for their products and ink inventories at the licensed printers require replenishment. There can be no assurances that revenues from licensees in the Entertainment and Toy Products market will increase in future periods, nor can the timing of such potential revenue increases be predicted, particularly given the uncertain economic conditions currently being experienced worldwide.2008.
     The Company’s gross profit decreased to $112,200$98,000 in the thirdsecond quarter of 20082009 or approximately 57%52% of revenues from $306,500$137,500 or approximately 63%58% of revenues in the thirdsecond quarter of 2007.2008. Licenses, royalties and fees carryhave historically carried a substantially higher gross profit than product and other sales, which generally consist of supplies or other manufactured products which incorporate the Company’s technologies or equipment used to support the application of its technologies. These items (except for inks which are manufactured by the Company) are generally purchased from third-party vendors and resold to the end-user or licensee and carry a significantly lower gross profit than licenses, royalties and fees. As bothThe lower gross profit in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008 results primarily from lower gross revenues represented byfrom licenses, royalties and fees and from product and other sales decreased in the thirdsecond quarter of 20082009 compared to the thirdsecond quarter of 2007,2008.
     For the first six months of 2009, the gross profit was $144,400, or approximately 48% of revenues, compared to $324,200, or approximately 64% of revenues, in boththe first six months of

2008. The decrease in the gross profit in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenues was negatively affected.
     For the first nine months of 2008, the gross profit was $436,400, or approximately 62% of revenues, compared to $629,800, or approximately 58% of revenues, in the first nine monthshalf of 2007. While the gross profit in absolute dollars decreased in the first nine months of 20082009 compared to the first nine monthshalf of 2007, the2008 resulted from lower gross profit, expressed as a percentagerevenues of revenues increasedboth licenses, royalties and fees and product and other sales in the first nine monthshalf of 20082009 compared to the first nine monthshalf of 2007 resulting from the increase in revenues represented by licenses, royalties and fees in the first nine months of 2008 compared to the first nine months of 2007.2008.
     As the variable component of cost of revenues related to licenses, royalties and fees is a low percentage of these revenues and the fixed component is not substantial, period to period changes in revenues from licenses, royalties and fees can significantly affect both the gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees as well as the overall gross profit. Primarily due to the increasedecrease in revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in the first nine monthssecond quarter of 2008 from2009 compared to the first nine monthssecond quarter of 2007,2008, the gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees increaseddecreased to approximately 83%76% of revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in the second quarter of 2009 from approximately 78% in the second quarter of 2008 and to approximately 74% of revenues from licenses, royalties and fees in the first nine monthshalf of 20082009 from approximately 73%85% in the first nine monthshalf of 2007. The gross profit from licenses, royalties and fees improved nominally in the third quarter of 2008 to approximately 79% of revenues from licenses, royalties and fees from approximately 78% in the third quarter of 2007.2008.
     The gross profit, expressed as a percentage of revenues, of product and other sales is dependent on both the overall sales volumes of product and other sales and on the mix of the

10


specific goods produced and/or sold. As a result of lower sales of both inks and security paper products as well as higher fixed expenses duein the second quarter of 2009 compared to a staff addition in mid-2007,the second quarter of 2008, the gross profit from product and other sales declined to approximately 31%28% of revenues in the second quarter of 2009 compared to approximately 40% of revenues from product and other sales in the thirdsecond quarter of 2008 from approximately 54% in the third quarter of 2007 and to approximately 32%16% of revenues from product and other sales in the first nine monthshalf of 20082009 compared to approximately 33% of revenues from approximately 53%product and other sales in the first nine monthshalf of 2007.2008.

     Sales and marketing expenses decreasedincreased to $49,500$95,700 in the thirdsecond quarter of 2009 from $65,600 in the second quarter of 2008 from $75,000and to $169,600 in the third quarterfirst six months of 2007. The decrease primarily reflects lower commission expense related to the lower level of revenues2009 from $133,500 in the thirdfirst six months of 2008. The increase in both the second quarter and first six months of 20082009 compared to the thirdsecond quarter and first six months of 2007 offset in part by2008 reflects fees paid to atwo sales consultant engaged lateconsultants involved in the third quarter of 2007 and expenses associated with the maintenancestart up of the Company’s new web site. In the first nine months of 2008, sales and marketing expenses increased to $183,000 from $173,800Loss Prevention Division, participation in three Loss Prevention trade shows in the first nine months of 2007. The increase primarily reflects expenses associated with the Company’s attendance at two trade shows, fees paid to a sales consultant engaged late in the thirdsecond quarter of 2007 as well as development2009 and maintenancerelated travel expenses associated with the Company’s new web site offset in part by lower commission expense on the lower level of revenuessales and lower costs associated with the Company’s web site in the second quarter and first ninesix months of 20082009 compared to the second quarter and first ninesix months of 2007.2008.

The increasedecrease in the thirdsecond quarter of 20082009 compared to the thirdsecond quarter of 20072008 is due primarily to: a) $45,600$6,000 in expenses recorded in the thirdsecond quarter of 2009 in connection with the issuance of 325,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in February 2009 to employees, an officer and others compared to $30,500 in expenses recorded in the second quarter of 2008 in connection with the issuance of 500,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to members of the Company’s Board of Directors in April 2008; b) no patent acquisition and maintenance expenses in the second quarter of 2009; c) lower insurance expense in the second quarter of 2009

     Management of the Company does not believe that inflation and changing prices have had a significant effect on its revenues and results of operations during the second quarter and first half of 2009 and the second quarter and first half of 2008.
Plan of Operation, Liquidity and Capital Resources
     The Company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased to $161,900$54,400 at SeptemberJune 30, 20082009 from $263,600$87,200 at December 31, 2007.2008.

     While the Company has added new licensees in the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Markettoy market over the past twothree years and hashad obtained significant increases in revenues from licenses, royalties and product sales from these licensees and their third party printers through the end of 2008, its working capital requirements have increased primarily in support of inventory and receivables related to these revenues; however, during 2007,revenues. During the Company achieved significant increasesfirst half of 2009, the Company’s revenues declined significantly as a result of declines in licensing revenues from its principal licensees in the entertainment and recorded net incometoy products business and incurred expenditures related to the inception of $386,000a new division that will sell the Company’s security products directly to loss prevention departments within retail businesses and $56,100 of operating cash flow. Thechains and to license other printers who serve this market segment. Primarily resulting from these two factors, the Company recorded a net loss of $238,900$238,100 in the first ninesix months of 20082009 and had negative operating cash flow of $148,800 during that period. At SeptemberJune 30, 2009, the Company had negative working capital of $196,500 and stockholders’ deficiency of $176,800. For the full year of 2008, the Company had a net loss of $271,700 and had negative operating cash flow of $175,200 during the year. At December 31, 2008, the Company had negative working capital of $11,900 and stockholder’s$12,400 in stockholders’ equity. At September 30, 2008, the Company had no loans outstanding; however, duringDuring the third quarter of 2008, itthe Company secured a $100,000 line of credit with a bank as an additional potential source of working capital. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company borrowed $75,000 under the line of credit to provide working capital in the future, if needed. There have been nofund its operating activities. The Company is presently required to pay interest only on borrowings under the line of credit. While the Company is not actively seeking additional investment at the present time due to the improvements in its revenues during 2007 and 2008 compared to earlier years, it may seek investment in the future, if needed, to support working capital requirements or to provide funding for new business opportunities. There can be no assurances that the Companybank will be successful in obtaining additional investment if such additional investment is sought. At this time, managementcontinue to make the line of the Company believes that its current cash reserves, borrowing capacity and revenue opportunities will allow it to remain in operation for at least one year from the date of this report. There can be no assurances that revenues in future periods will be sustained at levels that will allow it to return to and maintain positive cash flow.
     While the investment received in 2007 and improvement in operations positively impacted the Company’s liquidity situation, it continues to maintain a cost containment program including curtailment of discretionary research and development and sales and marketing expenses, where

     The Company’s plan of operation for the twelve months beginning with the date of this quarterly report consists of capitalizing on the specific business relationships it has developed in the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Productstoy products business through ongoing applications development for these licensees. The Company is also actively pursuing potential opportunities for its applications in new markets.markets including the retail loss prevention market. The Company believes that these initiatives can provide increases in revenues and it will continue to increase its production and technical staff as necessary and invest in capital equipment needed to support potential growth in its ink production requirements. The Company may raisehas received and continues to seek additional capital, in the form of debt, equity or both to support its working capital requirements.

     The Company generates a significant portion of its total revenues from licensees in the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Productstoy products market.

Risk Factors
     The Company’s operating results, financial condition and stock price are subject to certain risks, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. These risks could cause actual operating and financial results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company’s forward looking statements, including the risks described below and the risks identified in other documents which are filed and furnished with the SEC including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB10-K filed on March 31, 2008:2009:
Dependency on Major Customer.The Company’s recent growth inCompany derives a significant percentage of its revenues and return of profitability in 2007 has resulted primarily from relationships developedthrough a relationship with a major customer and two of its operating companies. Revenues derivedobtained directly from this customer and indirectly, through its third party printer,printers, equaled approximately 67%64% of the Company’s second quarter 2009 revenues, in the first nine months of 2008 and approximately 71%61% of the Company’s first half 2009 revenues and approximately 63% of the Company’s 2008 full year 2007 revenues. The Company also has substantial receivables from these businesses. While multi-year licenses exist with these organizations, the Company is dependent on its licensees to develop new products and markets that will generate increases in its licensing and product revenues. The inability of these licensees to maintain at least currentreturn to levels of sales of products utilizing the Company’s technologies achieved in earlier periods could adversely affect itsthe Company’s operating results and cash flow. As the Company’s licensees are subject to, and have been adversely affected, by economic conditions related to the current economic conditions, the Company’s revenues may be adversely impacted. Two of the license agreements with this customer are currently in force through year-end 2009 and a third through year-end 2010. The agreements contain mutual renewal options. There can be no assurances that the licenses will continue in force at the same, or more favorable, terms beyond the current termination dates.
Possible Inability to Develop New Business. While the Company has raised cash through additional capital investment in 2007 and improved its operatinggenerated cash flow from operations in 2007, it intends to limithas had limited increases in its operating expenses.expenses until this time. However, additional expenditures are required in 2009 to fund the new Loss Prevention Division. Management of the Company believes that any significant improvement in the Company’s cash flow from operations must result from increases in revenues from traditional sources and from new revenue sources.sources including its new Loss Prevention Division. The Company’s ability to develop new revenues may depend on the extent of both its marketing activities and its research and development activities, both of which are limited. There are no assurances that the resources that the Company can

13


devote to marketing and to research and development will be sufficient to increase its revenues to levels that will enable it to return to and maintain positive operating cash flow in the future.
Inability to Obtain Raw Materials and Products for Resale.The Company’s adverse financial condition in previous periods required it to significantly defer payments due vendors who supply raw materials and other components of its security inks, security paper that it purchases for resale, professional and other services. As a result, the Company is required to pay cash in advance of shipment to certain of its suppliers. Delays in shipments to customers caused by the inability to obtain materials on a timely basis and the possibility that certain current vendors may permanently discontinue to supplysupplying the Company with needed products could impact itsthe Company’s ability to service its customers, thereby adversely affecting its customer and licensee

15


relationships. Management of the Company believes that the capital investment in 2007 and improvements inpositive operating cash flow in 2007 have allowed the Company to improve its relationships with its vendors and professional service providers. There are, however, no assurances that the Company will be able to continue to maintain its vendor relationships in an acceptable manner.
Uneven Pattern of Quarterly and Annual Operating Results. The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from licensing, royalties and sales of products incorporating its technologies, are difficult to forecast due to the long sales cycle of its technologies, the potential for customer delay or deferral of implementation of its technologies, the size and timing of inception of individual license agreements, the success of its licensees and strategic partners in exploiting the market for the licensed products, modifications of customer budgets, and uneven patterns of royalty revenue and product orders. As the Company’s revenue base is not substantial, delays in finalizing license contracts, implementing the technology to initiate the revenue stream and customer ordering decisions can have a material adverse effect on the Company’s quarterly and annual revenue expectations and, as itsthe Company’s operating expenses are substantially fixed, income expectations will be subject to a similar adverse outcome. As licensees for the Entertainmententertainment and Toy Productstoy products markets are added and the Company’s new Loss Prevention Division begins operations, the unpredictability of the Company’s revenue stream may be further impacted.
Volatility of Stock Price. The market price for the Company’s common stock has historically experienced significant fluctuations and may continue to do so. From inception through 2006 and again in 2008 and the first six months of 2009, the Company had operated at a loss and has not produced revenue levels traditionally associated with publicly traded companies. The Company’s common stock is not listed on a national or regional securities exchange and, consequently, it receives limited publicity regarding its business achievements and prospects. Additionally, securities analysts and traders do not extensively follow the Company’s stock and its stock is also thinly traded. The Company’s market price may be affected by announcements of new relationships or modifications to existing relationships. The stock prices of many developing public companies, particularly those with small capitalizations, have experienced wide fluctuations not necessarily related to operating performance. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.
Access to Capital.The Company presently needs to raise additional capital to fund its historical and new business operations. The current crisis in the financial markets has caused serious deterioration in the net worth and liquidity of many investors, including that of potential investors in the Company, and seriously eroded investor confidence in general thereby making it more difficult for the Company to raise capital. If the Company is unable to secure capital, in the form of debt, equity or both, its ability to maintain its business operations in their current form may be adversely affected. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional investment in sufficient amounts to fund its ongoing business operations.
Intellectual Property.The Company relies on a combination of protections provided under applicable international patent, trademark and trade secret laws. The Company also relies on confidentiality, non-analysis and licensing agreements to establish and protect its rights in its proprietary technologies. While the Company actively attempts to protect these rights, its technologies could possibly be compromised through reverse engineering or other means. In addition, the Company’s ability to enforce its intellectual property rights through appropriate

14


legal action had been and may continue to be limited by its adverse liquidity. There can be no

16


assurances that the Company will be able to protect the basis of its technologies from discovery by unauthorized third parties or to preclude unauthorized persons from conducting activities that infringe on its rights. The Company’s adverse liquidity situation in previous years had also impacted its ability to obtain patent protection on its intellectual property and to maintain protection on previously issued patents. The Company has made payments of $11,900 for all knownbeen advised by its patent counsel that no patent maintenance fees are known to be due during 2008.2009. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to continue to prosecute new patents and maintain issued patents. As a result, the Company’s customer and licensee relationships could be adversely affected and the value of its technologies and intellectual property (including their value upon liquidation) could be substantially diminished.
Economic Conditions. The Company’s revenue is susceptible to changes in general economic conditions and athe current global recession, the effects of which are expected to continue through at least 2009. Decreasing consumer confidence, further slowdown in consumer spending or other significant downturn in the U.S. economy as a whole or in any geographic markets from which the Company derives revenue, could substantially impact its sales, liquidity and overall results of operations, as these factors may result in decreased demand for the Company’s products from its customers and licensees, and the Company’s ability to develop new customers and overall resultslicensees. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the economy, and the Company’s inability to predict the effect such conditions will have on its customers and licensees, the Company cannot predict the scope or magnitude of operations.the negative effect that the recent global financial crisis and economic slowdown will have on it.
