LAXAI PHARMA LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a development stage company - - formerly Nexgen Biofuels Ltd.)
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited - U.S. dollars)
NOTE 1 - OVERVIEW
a. Laxai Pharma Ltd. a company established as an Israeli corporation (formerly Nexgen Biofuels Ltd.) and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Laxai”), is a development stage company that through February 2010, was engaged in the development and/or acquisition of ethanol and bio-diesel plants, and blending terminal facilities, in the United States.
b. In February 2010, the Company ceased its ethanol and bio-diesel activities and engaged in the providing of integrated services across the drug development spectrum and changed its name from Nexgen Biofuels Ltd. to Laxai Pharma Ltd. and its subsidiary’s name from NexGen 2007, Inc. to OSR Holding Corp. See note 4. The results of the purchased assets are included in these financial statements as of March 2nd, 2010
c. See Note 4 in regard to the Assets Purchase Agreement (“APA”), regarding which a Purchase Price Allocation (“PPA”) was performed by an external appraiser.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements Laxai Pharma Ltd. and Subsidiaries (hereinafter, “Laxai” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, presented on April 15, 2010.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2010, the Company had not achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $4,966 thousand (since inception), a working capital deficiency of $519 thousand at March 31, 2010 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited - U.S. dollars)
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued)
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations or management’s ability to find sources of additional equity capital. The Company needs to raise additional funds on an immediate basis in order to continue to meet its liquidity needs, realize its business plan and maintain operations. The Company’s current cash resources are not sufficient to support its operations as presently conducted or permit it to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. Management of the Company is continuing its efforts to secure funds through equity or debt instruments for its operations. No assurance can be provided that any successful financing will result and that additional capital will be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms or at all.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing a business plan or that the successful implementation of a business plan will actually improve the Company’s operating results
The Company has been funding its operations from the net proceeds from the private placement of its securities and secured notes.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Laxai Pharma Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company continually evaluates the accounting policies and estimates we use to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The Company bases its estimates on historical experiences and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management.
Functional currency
The majority of the Company’s financing is received in US dollars. Accordingly, the Company has determined the US dollar as the currency of its primary economic environment and thus, its functional and reporting currency. Non-dollar transactions and balances have been measured into US dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” (“SFAS No. 52”). All transaction gains and losses from the measurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited - U.S. dollars)
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued)
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less at the date acquired to be cash equivalents.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses and short-term debt approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates doubtful accounts based on historical bad debts, factors related to specific customers' ability to pay, and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible. At March 31, 2010, management considered accounts receivable net of allowance for doubtful debts, to be fully collectible.
Property and equipment
Depreciation of property and equipment is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
Goodwill
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over net assets acquired of OSR Solutions Inc. on March 3, 2010. The carrying value of goodwill will be evaluated annually or whenever a possible impairment is indicated.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued)
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”. The Company's revenue derives providing of integrated services across the drug development spectrum, according to its service agreements with Customers. In order to recognize service revenue, the following criteria must be met: (i) the service agreement must be signed by the customer, (ii) the signed agreement must specify the fees to be received for the services, (iii) the service has been performed and accepted by the customer, (iv) no significant Company obligations remain and (v) collectability is probable.
When the above revenue recognition criteria are not met at the time services has been provided, the Company records deferred revenue.
Research and Development:
Costs incurred in connection with research and development, are expensed as incurred.
Marketing and advertisement
Costs incurred in connection with marketing and advertising, are expensed as incurred
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”). This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.
Basic and diluted net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of Common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of Common shares outstanding during each year, plus dilutive potential Common shares considered outstanding during the year, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“SFAS No. 128”).

NOTE 3 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 2010, the Company adopted the new provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU No. 2010-06”). ASU No. 2010-06 provides revised guidance on improving disclosures about valuation techniques and inputs to fair value measurements. The adoption of this standard had no effect on the financial statements of the Company.
In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to accounting standards related to subsequent events. The amendment exempts Securities and Exchange Commission registrants from the requirement to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events for either original or restate financial statements. The standard is effective February 2010. The Company adopted this standard in February 2010. The adoption did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, other than additional reporting requirements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standard if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION
On March 3, 2010, OSR Holding Corp. (“Holding”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) it entered with OSR Solutions, Inc. (“Solutions”). Under the terms of the APA, Holding acquired substantially all the assets of Solutions (the “Assets”) for a purchase price of $2,250 thousand. In addition to the foregoing, as part of the purchase Holding obtained an option to purchase shares of Avanti Life Sciences, Pvt. Ltd., an affiliate of Solutions. Solutions also granted Holding a right of second refusal to repurchase the shares of the Company, issued to Solutions as part of the purchase price in the acquisition. Company management is of the opinion that the valuation of the gross benefit component is not significant.
It has been agreed that the purchase price for the acquisition will be paid in the following manner:
1.
$1,250 thousand in cash payable at Closing, $250 thousand in cash payable on December 31, 2010, $250 thousand in cash payable on December 31, 2011, and $250 thousand in cash payable on December 31, 2012. The deferred portion of the purchase price will earn interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum. Company has also agreed to pay an additional $250 thousand on or before April 1, 2010. In the event this payment is not made, Solutions has been granted an option to purchase an additional 5 million of Company’s Ordinary Shares in satisfaction of the $250 thousand required payment.
2.
Five Million Six Hundred Three Thousand Two Hundred Eighty One Ordinary Shares of the Company -- representing approximately 9.95% of the Ordinary Shares outstanding at the date of Closing – issued by the Company at the Closing of the transaction.
3.
Holding shall assume certain liabilities of Solutions in the approximate amount of $600 thousand.

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION(continued)
4.
A liability for repayment of the credit line was added in the amount of approximately $ 475 thousand.
5.
In addition, the purchase price will be subject to the following potential adjustments:
(a)
The deferred portion of the purchase price will be reduced based on the amount that annual audited EBITDA associated with the assets to be acquired is less than $1 million during the year ending on the date of the required payment. The amount of such reduction will be $250 thousand times the following ratio: EBITDA related to the operation of the assets determined as of December 31, 2010 divided by $1 million. This adjustment shall be reduced to the extent that EBITDA is reduced by overhead costs that exceed $125 thousand per month.
(b)
The deferred portion of the purchase price will be reduced and/or increased dollar for dollar by the amount that the net worth of Solutions -- as calculated using Solution’s interim balance sheet dated February 28, 2010 -- is more or less than the net worth of Solutions for the same period using a balance sheet audited by a PCAOB accounting firm, provided such audit must be completed no later than six (6) months following the end of Solutions’ fiscal year.

The purchase price of the Note as of March 3, 2010 (“Closing”) is $1,200 thousand. The Note will earn interest at a rate of 12% per annum and Company agreed to pay the Lender additional interest equal to 4% per annum of the purchase price of the Note, payable at the Closing.

The interest rate is increased by 2% per annum on the 30th day after Closing and another 2% per annum on both the 40th and 50th day after Closing, until a minimum of $750 thousand of the obligation represented by the Note is retired.
In addition, the Company granted to Lender a warrant to purchase not more or less than 9.9% of the Company’s issued and issuable Ordinary Shares, initially estimated to be 5,800,000 of the Registrant’s ordinary shares, subject to certain adjustments. The Warrant has a term of five years, and the exercise price for the shares is $.05 per share, subject to certain adjustments.
The Note is guaranteed by Holding, and is secured by all the accounts receivable of Holding and Company, and by a pledge of Company’s stock in Holding. In addition, as security for the payment of the Note, Company and Holding have agreed to deposit all cash received from their customers into a Secured Account, with cash to be released from the Secured Account to Holding only after cash in the Secured Account, when added to the then-current accounts receivable of Holding, equals $900 thousand. In addition, Company’s major shareholder and Chairman of the Board of Directors, has pledged as security for the Note substantially all of Company’s Ordinary Shares which he, his spouse and their affiliate companies own, amounting to approximately 34,411,842 ordinary shares.

OVERVIEW
The Company was previously in the business of developing and operating ethanol and biodiesel fuel production facilities under the name NexGen Biodiesel, Ltd. Due to the downturn in the ethanol market, the Company changed its business plan and entered the pharmaceutical research and testing business. As a result in February, 2010 the Company changed its name to Laxai Pharma, Ltd. in order to more clearly reflect its business model. On March 3, 2010, OSR Holding Corp. (“Holding”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company purchased the Assets of OSR Solutions, Inc. (“Solutions”) for a purchase price of Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($2,250,000.00). In addition, as part of the purchase Holding obtained an option to purchase shares of Avanti Life Sciences, Pvt. Ltd., an affiliate of Solutions. Solutions also granted Holding a right of first refusal to repurchase the shares of the Company acquired b y Solutions in the acquisition. The acquisition was financed through the sale of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, and through a loan from UTA Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 ($ in thousands)
Revenues - For the three months period ended March 31, 2010, all revenues in the amount of $523 were generated from the integrated services we provided across the drug development spectrum, which is our new business model. We received no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
Legal and professional expenses – For the 2010 period and the 2009 period we have incurred legal and professional expenses of $76 and $ 11, respectively. The increase in legal and professional expenses is primarily attributable to services received in connection with the acquisition of OSR Solutions Inc. during the 2010 period.
Salary expenses - For the 2010 period and the 2009 period we have incurred salary expenses of $611 and $ 83, respectively. The increase in salary expenses is primarily attributable to our hiring, since the beginning of March 2010, of personnel to allow us to provide integrated services across the drug development spectrum.
Interest expense - Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $248, and for the same period in 2009 we incurred no interest expense. Interest expense for 2010 was primarily related to the debt in the amount of $1,440,000, which we incurred in connection with the financing of our acquisition of OSR Solutions, Inc. in March 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ($ in thousands)
We need to raise additional funds in order to be able to satisfy our cash requirements and fulfill our business plan over the next twelve months. The on-going deterioration in the general economic environment, which began in 2008, may force us to take several cost-cutting measures. Without raising additional funds, whether through the issuance of our securities or otherwise, we may not be able to maintain operations as presently conducted. We are actively seeking additional capital.
Presently, we do not have a financing commitment from any person, and there is no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms or at all. Even if we raise cash to meet our working capital needs, our cash needs could be greater than anticipated in which case we could be forced to raise additional capital. Our auditors included a “going concern” qualification in their report for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Such “going concern” qualification may make it more difficult for us to raise funds when needed. Moreover, the current economic climate may further complicate our capital raising efforts. If we are unable to raise additional capital soon, we may be forced to lay-off employees and either restructure or significantly reduced our operations.
As of March 31, 2010, we had an available cash balance of $23 compared to $2 at December 31, 2009.As of May 20, 2010, our cash balances are significantly less than the March 31, 2010 balance.
Net cash used in operating activities was $239 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $93 during the 2009 Period. The increase in the use of cash is primarily attributable to funding the loss for the 2010 period.
Net cash used in investing activities was $1,199 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This is attributable to the acquisition of the assets of OSR Solutions, Inc. in March 2010. For the 2009 period we used no cash used in investing activities.
Cash provided by financing activities was $1,459 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $91 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The increase in cash provided is primarily attributable to funding received in connection with our acquisition of OSR Solutions, Inc.
In March 2010, the Company issued 5,603,281 of its Ordinary Shares valued at $750 to OSR Solutions, Inc., in connection with our acquisition of the assets of that Company.
In addition, during the three month period ended March 31, 2010 the Company issued 13,555,379 of its Ordinary Shares to investors in a private placement for a total consideration of $757.
All the shares sold in the aforementioned capital transactions were sold in a private placement and they were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(2) of that Act. Each investor was suitable for the purchase of the shares and each was given adequate access to sufficient information to make an informed investment decision.
