Dr. John Anderson previously worked as a research scientist for Sensor Inc., a company that develops tiny sensors that detect and identify trace amounts of chemicals in the air. Sensor Inc. markets and sells the sensors to industrial companies to assist with leak and hazardous agent detection. Anderson plans to license the technology and develop the sensor for a device that would help physicians detect early-stage cancers. Patients would breathe directly into the device, which would analyze a users breath for traces of key compounds associated with the most common cancers. In addition to eliminating the need for invasive biopsy procedures, the screening tool would also be inexpensive, easy to use and provide immediate results. In 2012, Anderson applied for the trademark for BreatheScreen with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and was granted the trademark in November 2012. In addition to the small entity electronic filing fee of $375 for the trademark, Anderson paid $2,500 to a lawyer who assisted him with the filing process. The following provides a summary of events for 2013: 1. On January 2, Anderson, together with three investors, established BreatheScreen Inc. BreatheScreen issued 17,000,000 common shares to investors for $2 per share. 2. Also on January 2, BreatheScreen issued an additional 3,000,000 shares, which were given to Anderson in exchange for the trademark BreatheScreen. The trademark is viewed as a key success factor to the business. 3. On January 5, BreatheScreen signed a one-year licensing agreement with Sensor Inc. The licensing period began on February 1, 2013, and the annual fee of $3,000,000 was paid in full. 4.

BreatheScreen contracted with a small health technology company to modify the original sensing chip to detect certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) associated with cancer. Toward the end of February 2013, the health technology company delivered the required specifications and a pre-production model and was paid a total of $2,000,000. 6.

An additional $3,300,000 in cash was paid for corporate salaries and other corporate expenses (for the July to December period). 12.

The largest single receivable was due from a reputable pharmaceutical company, which purchased a substantial number of devices as part of a promotional campaign. Most of the other receivables were on transactions that had been made close to year-end, and were expected to be collected in January 2014. 14. On December 13, BreatheScreen signed a contract with the organizer of the International Fair for Medical Devices 2014 (IFMD) for 1,000 units of BreatheScreen, with the intention of giving them away to health care professionals visiting the trade show.
