NOTE 1: GENERAL

A. Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (“the Company”), a Nevada corporation, was incorporated and commenced operations on May 11, 2001, under the name A. I. Software Inc. which was changed as of June 30, 2003 to Pluristem Life Systems Inc. On November 26, 2007, the Company’s name was changed to Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary, Pluristem Ltd. (“the Subsidiary”), which is incorporated under the laws of Israel.

B. The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts towards conducting research and development of adherent stromal cells production technology and the commercialization of cell therapy products. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage, as defined in statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 “Accounting and reporting by Development stage Enterprises”. In the course of such activities, the Company and its Subsidiary have sustained operating losses and expect such losses to continue in the foreseeable future. The Company and its Subsidiary have not generated any revenues or product sales and have not achieved profitable operations or positive cash flows from operations. The Company’s deficit accumulated during the development stage aggregated to $29,091 through December 31, 2008 and incurred net loss of $3,075 and negative cash flow from operating activities in the amount of $2,085 for the six months ended December 31, 2008. There is no assurance that profitable operations, if ever achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis.

  The Company plans to continue to finance its operations with placements of equity securities and R&D grants and in the longer term, from revenues from product sales. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing needed for the long-term development and commercialization of its planned products.

  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

C. As of December 10, 2007, the Company’s shares of common stock have been traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol PSTI. The shares were previously traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol “PLRS.OB”. On May 7, 2007, the Company’s shares also began trading on Europe’s Frankfurt Stock Exchange, under the symbol PJT.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Pluristem Therapeutics Inc., a development stage company, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Pluristem’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year as reported in Form 10-K have been omitted.

B. Impact of recently issued accounting standards:

  For the period ended December 31, 2008, there were no changes to our critical accounting policies as identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008.

B. On July 9, 2001, the Company issued 175,500 shares of common stock in consideration for $2.5, which was received on July 27, 2001.

The consideration was paid partly in the year ended June 30, 2003 ($933) and the balance was paid in the year ended June 30, 2004.

  In this placement each unit was comprised of one common stock and two warrants, the first warrant was exercisable for one share of common stock at a price of $450 per share, and could have been exercised within one year. The second warrant is exercisable for one common stock at a price of $540 per share, and may be exercised within five years. All the warrants expired unexercised.

E. On January 20, 2004, the Company consummated a private equity placement with a group of investors (the “Investors”).

On March 18, 2004, a registration statement on Form SB-2 was declared effective and the above-mentioned common stock was registered for re-sale. If the effectiveness of the Registration Statement is suspended subsequent to the effective date of registration (March 18, 2004), for more than certain permitted periods, as described in the private equity placement agreement, the Company shall pay penalties to the Investors in respect of the liquidated damages.

  According to Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 00-19, “Accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a Company’s own stock”, the Company classified the warrants as liabilities according to their fair value as remeasured at each reporting period until exercised or expired. Changes in the fair value of the warrants were reported in the statements of operations as financial income or expense.

  The Company allocated the gross amount received of $1,500 to the par value of the shares issued ($0.03) and to the liability in respect of the warrants issued ($1,499.97). The amount allocated to the liability was less than the fair value of the warrants at grant date. On January 31, 2007 all the warrants expired unexercised.

NOTE 3: SHARE CAPITAL AND STOCK OPTIONS (CONT.)

M. Convertible Debenture (Cont.):

  In accordance with EITF 00-19, the Company allocated the consideration paid for the convertible debenture and the warrants as follows:

  The warrants were recorded as a liability based on their fair value in the amount of $951 at grant date. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following assumptions: volatility of 83%, risk free interest rate of 4.8%, dividend yield of 0%, and an expected life of 36 months. Changes in the fair value are recorded as interest income or expense, as applicable.

  The fair value of the conversion feature of the debentures at grant date, in the amount of $1,951 was recorded as a liability.

  The balance of the consideration, in the amount of $97, was allocated to the debentures. The discount in the amount of $2,903 was amortized according the effective rate interest method over the debentures contractual period (24 months).

  The fair value of the warrants issued as a finder’s fee and the finder’s fee in cash amounted to $535 and were recorded as deferred issuance expenses and are amortized over the Debentures’ contractual period. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using a Black – Scholes option pricing model, with the following assumptions: volatility of 83%, risk free interest rate of 4.8%, dividend yield of 0%, and an expected life of 36 months.

  According to EITF 00-19, in order to classify warrants and options (other than employee stock options) as equity and not as liabilities, the Company should have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of common stock to provide for settlement of those instruments that may require share settlement. Under the terms of the Debentures, the Company may be required to issue an unlimited number of shares to satisfy the debenture’s contractual requirements. As such, on April 3, 2006, the Company’s warrants and options (other than employee stock options) were classified as liabilities and measured at fair value with changes recognized currently in earnings.

  As of November 9, 2006, all of the Debentures, were converted into 969,815 shares. As a result, an amount of $1,787 was reclassified into common stock and additional paid-in capital as follows: from conversion of the feature embedded in convertible debenture ($1,951), convertible debenture ($202), accrued interest ($74) net of issuance expenses in the amount of $440. In addition, the warrants and options to consultants in the amount of $476 and deferred issuance expenses in the amount of $379 were reclassified as equity.

  Pursuant to an investor relations agreement dated April 28, 2006, the Company paid in cash an amount of $440 on October 19, 2006 and issued 50,000 common shares on November 9, 2006 to certain service providers following reaching certain milestones regarding the conversion of the Debentures as agreed to by the parties.

  During the year ended June 30, 2007, 186,529 of the warrants which were issued on April 3, 2006, were exercised. 75,692 warrants were exercised into shares in consideration for $1,022 (net of cash exercise costs of $114), and 110,836 warrants were exercised cashless into 46,674 shares.

NOTE 3: SHARE CAPITAL AND STOCK OPTIONS (CONT.)

N. On May 14, 2007, the Company consummated a private equity placement with a group of investors for an equity investment (“May 2007 Agreement”). The Company sought a minimum of $7,000 and up to a maximum of $13,500 for shares of the Company’s common stock, $.00001 par value at a per share price of $2.50, and warrants to purchase shares at an exercise price of $5 exercisable until five years after the closing date of the agreement.

  In May 2007, under the May 2007 Agreement, the Company issued 3,126,177 shares of the Company’s common stock and 3,126,177 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock in consideration for $7,751 (net of cash issuance costs of $64).

  During July and August 2007, under the May 2007 Agreement, the Company issued additional 273,828 shares of the Company’s common stock and 273,828 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock in consideration for $685. The consideration was paid partly prior to the issuance of the shares in the year ended June 30, 2007 ($368) and was recorded as receipts on account of shares and the balance was paid during July and August 2007.

  As part of May 2007 Agreement, the Company signed an escrow agreement according to which the Company granted an option to an investor to invest, under the same conditions defined in the May 2007 Agreement, up to $5,000 which will be paid in monthly installments over 10 months starting six months subsequent to the closing date. According to the agreement, in the event that the investor fails to make any of the payments within five days of the payment due date, the option to invest the remaining amount will be cancelled. As a result of this agreement, the Company issued 634,580 shares of the Company’s common stock and 634,580 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock in consideration for $1,561 (net of cash issuance costs of $25). As of March 31, 2008 the option was cancelled.

  The total proceeds related to the May 2007 Agreement accumulated as of June 30, 2008 were $9,997 (net of cash issuance costs of $89), and 4,034,585 shares and 4,034,585 warrants were issued.

  In connection with the May 2007 Agreement, the Company issued 275,320 warrants to finders as finders’ fee. The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of grant at an exercise price of $2.50 per share.

  During year 2008 and 2007, 1,361,818 and 500,000 warrants related to the May 2007 Agreement were exercised on a cashless basis for 1,009,697 shares of stock and 366,534 shares of stock, respectively.

  In the subscription agreement for the May 2007 equity financing, there is a provision that requires the Company for a period of four years (subject to acceleration under certain circumstances) not to sell any of the Company’s common stock for less than $0.0125 per share (pre-split price). The May 2007 Agreement provides that any sale below that number must be preceded by consent from each purchaser in the placement. Since that date, the Company had effected a one-for-200 reverse stock split.

  The Company decided to proceed and enter into additional security purchase agreements notwithstanding this provision for the following reasons:

  The agreement does not contain any provisions for the adjustment of the specified minimum price in the event of stock splits and the like. If such agreement were to have contained such a provision, the floor price would be $2.50.

  The majority of purchasers in the private placement have sold the stock purchased in the placement, and thus the number of purchasers whose consent is purportedly required has been substantially reduced. The number of shares outstanding as to which this provision currently applies according the information supplied by transfer agent is 1.9 million shares.

  An agreement that prevents the Company’s Board of Directors from issuing shares that are necessary to finance the Company’s business may be unenforceable.

  It is unclear what could be the consequences of a court decision that the issuance of shares below $2.50 per share violates the May 2007 Agreement.

  The Company intends to grant 8% warrant coverage for shares all investors from May 2007 Agreement held on August 6, 2008, with an exercise price of $1.90, exercisable for two years, conditioned on having the investors execute a general release pursuant to which the Company will be released from liability including, but not limited to, any claims, demands, or causes of action arising out of, relating to, or regarding the said dispute.

O. The Company issued 28,398 warrants to the investors related to the May 2007 Agreement as compensation to investors who delivered the invested amount prior to the closing date of the placement. The warrants are exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants as financial expenses in the amount of $651 in the year ended June 30, 2007. The fair value of these warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model, assuming a risk free rate of 4.8%, a volatility factor of 128%, dividend yield of 0% and expected life of 5 years.

P. During July and September 2007, the Company issued 10,000 shares of common stock to service providers pursuant to an investor relations agreement, whereby the services will be provided to the Company for a period of 6 months in consideration for a monthly retainer payments and for the issuance of 10,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Total compensation, measured as the grant date fair market value of the stock, amounted to $149.

  According to EITF 00-18, the Company should recognize expense as services are received. Consequently, total compensation amounted to $149 was recorded as an operating expense in the statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2008.

Q. In February 2008, the Company issued 7,500 shares of common stock to a service provider as compensation for carrying out investor relations activities. Total compensation, measured as the grant date fair market value of the stock, amounted to $18 and was recorded as an operating expense in the statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2008.

R. In February 2008, the Company entered into an investor relations agreement pursuant to which the service will be provided to the Company in consideration for a monthly retainer payment and for a monthly issuance of 500 shares of common stock of the Company. The Company recorded the fair value of the stock at each grant date as operating expenses in the statement of operations. An amount of $6 was recorded during the year ended June 30, 2008, and an amount of $2 was recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2008.

S. In April 2008, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to a service provider as compensation for carrying out investor relations activities for a period of three months starting April 4, 2008. Total compensation, measured as the grant date fair market value of the stock, amounted to $102 and was recorded as an operating expense in the statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2008.

NOTE 4: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

A. On October 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to grant to certain of the Company’s employees, management and directors options to purchase an aggregate of 590,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.62 per share, which was based on the closing price of the Company’s stock as traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 29, 2008. The grant was to be made pursuant to an exemption from registration under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and was conditioned upon the approval by the Company’s shareholders of an increase of the pool of shares under the 2005 Plan.

  At the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company held on January 21, 2009, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Option Plan of the Company, amending the current 2005 Plan in order to: (i) increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 1,990,000 to be equal to 16% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on a fully diluted basis immediately prior to the grant of securities; (ii) allow the issuance of shares of common stock and units for such shares of common stock; and (iii) set the termination date thereof to be December 31, 2018.

B. On January 29, 2009, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company sold to such investors 1,034,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one of the company’s share of common stock (“Unit”). The purchase price per Unit was $1.16 and the aggregate purchase price for the said Units is approximately $1,200. The warrants are exercisable 181 days following the issuance thereof for a period of five years thereafter at an exercise price of $1.90 per share.

Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to release publicly the result of any revision to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Further information on potential factors that could affect our business is described under the heading “Risk Related to Our Business” in Part I, Item 1, “Description of Business” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures we have made in that report.

Our financial statements are stated in thousands United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.

As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, and “Pluristem” mean Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiary, unless otherwise indicated or as otherwise required by the context.

Overview

We are engaged in the business of the development of stem cell production technology and the development and commercialization of cell therapy products. We were incorporated in the State of Nevada under the name “A.I. Software, Inc.” on May 11, 2001. On June 10, 2003, we acquired from the Weizmann Institute of Science and the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of a research and development company based in Israel called Pluristem, Ltd. Pluristem, Ltd. was incorporated under the law of Israel on January 22, 2003 and has the facilities and personnel to conduct research and development in the field of stem cell research. As a result, Pluristem, Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary as of June 10, 2003.

On November 23, 2007, we changed our name to Pluristem Therapeutics Inc.

On November 26, 2007, we effected a one for two hundred reverse stock split. Accordingly, all references to number of shares, common stock and per share data have been adjusted to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis.

On December 10, 2007, our shares of common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol PSTI. The shares were previously traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol “PLRS.OB”. On May 7, 2007, our shares also began trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, under the symbol PJT.

2



Effective on June 4, 2008, the authorized number of shares of our common stock was increased from 7,000,000 shares to 30,000,000 shares. Effective on July 1, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to authorize 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001, with such series, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Going Concern

We have not generated revenues since our inception. Historically we have relied on private placement issuances of equity and debt.

It is likely that we will need to raise additional working capital to fund our ongoing operations and growth. The amount of our future capital requirements depends primarily on the rate at which we increase our revenues and correspondingly decrease our use of cash to fund operations. Cash used for operations will be affected by numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, our ability to successfully develop and commercialize our products and the degree to which competitive products and services are introduced to the market. As long as our cash flow from operations remains insufficient to completely fund operations, we will continue depleting our financial resources and seeking additional capital through equity and/or debt financing. If we raise additional capital through the issuance of debt, this will result in increased interest expense. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our company held by existing stockholders will be reduced and those stockholders may experience significant dilution. In addition, new securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our common stock.

There can be no assurance that acceptable financing to fund our ongoing operations can be obtained on suitable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the financing necessary to support our operations, we may be unable to continue as a going concern. In that event, we may be forced to cease operations and our stockholders could lose their entire investment in our company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 COMPARED TO SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007.

We have not generated any revenues, and we have negative cash flow from operations of $15,553,000 and have accumulated a deficit of $29,091,000 since our inception in May 2001. This negative cash flow is mostly attributable to research and development and general and administrative expenses. We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase as we intend to conduct detailed development of our products through animal pre-clinical trials and experiments and clinical trials. We estimate our operating cash expenses in the next twelve months to be approximately $6,000,000.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses net for the six months ended December 31, 2008 decreased by 30% to $1,302,000 from $1,871,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease is due to the decrease in stock-based compensation to employees and consultants in the amount of $885,000 as a result of a decrease in our stock price, and due to the increase in the participation by the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist as the grant for the previous 10 months was approved and recorded in December 2008.

Research and development expenses net for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased by 96% to $39,000 from $1,034,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease is due to the decrease in stock-based compensation to employees and consultants in the amount of $380,000 as a result of a decrease in our stock price and due to the increase in the participation by the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist as the grant for the previous 10 months was approved and recorded on December 2008.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2008 decreased by 45% to $1,707,000 from $3,085,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to the decrease in stock-based compensation to employees and consultants that decreased from $1,658,000 to $624,000. In addition, there was a cut down in various expenses, mainly in expenses related to services provided by investor relations and public relations consultants.

3



General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased by 51% to $744,000 from $1,528,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is attributable to the decrease in stock-based compensation to employees and consultants that decreased from $721,000 to $243,000 and to the cut down in investor relations and public relations related expenses.

Financial Income, net

The decrease in financial income from $146,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2007 to an expense of $66,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2008, was mainly as a result of the loss from sale of marketable securities in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009.

Net Loss

Net loss for the six and three months ended December 31, 2008 was $3,075,000 and $833,000, respectively, as compared to net loss of $4,810,000 and $2,530,000 for the six and three months ended December 31, 2007. Net loss per share for the six and three months ended December 31, 2008 was $0.35 and $0.09, respectively, as compared to $0.79 and $0.40 for the six and three months ended December 31, 2007. The net loss per share decreased as a result of the decrease in the net loss and the increase in our weighted average number of shares due to the issuance of additional shares in pursuant to equity issuances as discussed further below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2008, total current assets were $2,889,000 and total current liabilities were $846,000. On December 31, 2008, we had a working capital surplus of $2,043,000 and an accumulated deficit of $29,091,000. We finance our operations and plan to continue doing so with stock issuances and with the participation of the Office of the Chief Scientist.

Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2008 amounted to $2,193,000. This is an increase of $1,870,000 from the $323,000 reported as of June 30, 2008. We had no marketable securities on December 31, 2008 as opposed to marketable securities in the amount of $1,185,000 that we had as of June 30, 2008 and sold afterwards in light of volatile market conditions and the need for cash in the short-term. Cash balances increased in the six months ended December 31, 2008 for the reasons presented below.

Operating activities used cash of $2,085,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2008. Cash used by operating activities in the six months ended December 31, 2008 primarily consisted of payments of salaries to our employees, and payments of fees to our consultants, subcontractors and professional services providers, less R&D grant participation by the Office of the Chief Scientist.

Investing activities provided cash of $935,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2008. This resulted primarily from proceeds from sale of marketable securities in the amount of $1,113,000 offset by costs associated with upgrading our facilities to Good Manufacturing Practice, or GMP, standard facilities in the amount of $211,000.

Financing activities generated cash of $3,020,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2008 resulting primarily from receiving cash from investors related to the offerings described below.

On August 6, 2008, we sold 1,391,304 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 695,652 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.90 per share to two investors in consideration of $1,600,000 pursuant to terms of a securities purchase agreement. Rodman & Renshaw, LLC acted as placement agent, on a best efforts basis, for the offering and received a placement fee equal to 6% of the gross purchase price of the Units (excluding any consideration that may be paid in the future upon exercise of the warrants) as well as warrants to purchase 83,478 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.44 per share. Subject to FINRA Rule 2710, the placement agent warrants may be exercised after six months through and including August 5, 2013.  The offering was made pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-151761).

We do not expect to generate any revenues from sales of products in the next twelve months. We may generate revenues from the sale of licenses to use our technology. Our products will likely not be ready for sale for at least three years, if at all.

In our management’s opinion, we expect to achieve the following events or milestones in the next twelve months in order for us to begin generating revenues as planned in three years or more:

  Scaling up of our 3-D PluriXTM Bioreactor operations bringing them to commercial capabilities.

  Start the first Phase I clinical trial in the USA with the PLX-PAD after the FDA approves the IND.

  Start the first Phase I clinical trial in Europe with the PLX-PAD after the PEI approval, or the IMPD.

  Obtaining Pre-clinical data in additional clinical indication.

Outlook

We believe that the funds we have will be sufficient for operating for at least four fiscal quarters. We are continuously seeking research grants in order to raise additional non-dilutive funding. We work closely with Office of Israel’s Chief Scientist ("OCS") who supported our activity in the past 3 years and we plan to submit an application for a new grant to the OCS in March 2009. We also filed grant applications and formed a Multidisciplinary Consortium that includes thirteen companies and research centers in Germany, France, Switzerland and Israel to support additional clinical trials via grant applications totaling approximately $13 million. These grant applications, supported by the Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development, are the European Union’s main instrument for funding research in Europe. There can be no assurance that we will receive these grants. Management believes that we will need to raise additional funds before we have any cash flow from operations. We believe that it will take several years for us to complete the approval process for our products in the United States, Europe or any other jurisdiction. In addition, future decisions regarding any acquisitions that we may choose to make or expanded product development, as to which there can be no assurance of success, will require additional capital, which must be raised through the issuance of additional securities and/or incurring debt. There can be no assurance, however, that acceptable financing to fund our ongoing operations can be obtained on suitable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the financing necessary to support our operations, we may be unable to continue as a going concern. In that event, we may be forced to cease operations and our stockholders could lose their entire investment in our company.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials. Critical and significant accounting policies are described in our latest audited financial statements and Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008 and such policies have not changed materially.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our company has no off balance sheet arrangements that are not disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2008.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures – We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed for the purposes of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and our CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
