1. | Organization and basis of presentation |
Basis of presentation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in
the opinion of management of Save the World Air, Inc. (the Company), contain all
adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the
financial position at September 30, 2006, the results of operations for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, and cash flows for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 is derived from
the Companys audited financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures
contained in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented
therein not misleading. For further information, refer to the financial statements and the
notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of
operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of
the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31,
2006.

Description of business
Save the World Air, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in Nevada on February 18, 1998
under the name Mandalay Capital Corp. The Company changed its name to Save the World Air,
Inc. on February 11, 1999 following the purchase of the worldwide exclusive manufacturing,
marketing and distribution rights for the ZEFS technologies. Products incorporating the
ZEFS technologies, when fitted to an internal combustion engine, are expected to reduce
carbon monoxide hydrocarbons and nitrons oxide emissions. During the past three years,
the Company has been acquiring new technologies, developing prototype products using the
Companys technologies and conducting scientific tests regarding the technologies and
prototype products. In 2003, the Company acquired worldwide intellectual property and
patent rights to technologies which reduce carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrous oxide
emissions in two- and four-stroke motorcycles, fuel-injection engines, generators and
small engines. The Company has also developed prototype products and named them
CAT-MATE technology.
Consolidation policy
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Save the World Air, Inc. and
Subsidiary include the accounts of Save the World Air, Inc. (the Parent) and its wholly
owned subsidiary STWA Asia Pte. Limited, incorporated on January 17, 2006. To date, STWA
Asia Pte. Limited has had no operating activity. As of September 30, 2006, the subsidiary
held $12,662 in cash. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Development stage enterprise
The Company is a development stage enterprise as defined by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage
Enterprises. All losses accumulated since the inception of the Company have been
considered as part of the Companys development stage activities.
The Companys focus is on research and development of proprietary devices that are
designed to reduce harmful emissions, and improve fuel efficiency and engine performance
on equipment and vehicles driven by internal combustion engines and has not yet generated
any revenues. The technologies are called ZEFS, MK IV and CAT-MATE. The Company has
completed the design, the development of production models and is currently marketing its
products worldwide. Expenses have been funded through the sale of company stock,
convertible notes and the exercise of warrants. The Company has taken actions to secure
the intellectual property rights to the ZEFS, MK IV and CAT-MATE devices. In addition,
the Company has initiated marketing efforts to international governmental entities in
cooperation with the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and various original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs), to eventually sell or license the ZEFS, MK IV and CAT-MATE
products and technologies.

Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of
finished goods.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Certain significant estimates were made in connection with
preparing the Companys financial statements. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Stock based compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123(R)) which requires the measurement
and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to
employees and directors based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the
Companys previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) for periods beginning in fiscal
2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the
provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).
The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which
requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first day
of the Companys fiscal year 2006. The Companys financial statements as of and for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In
accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the Companys financial
statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the
impact of SFAS 123(R). There was no stock-based compensation expense related to employee
or director stock options recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123(R) for employee and directors
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $594,718 and $1,809,493,
respectively. Basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended September 30,
2006 would have been $0.04 per share, if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R), compared
to reported basic and diluted loss per share of $0.05 per share. Basic and diluted loss
per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 would have been $0.18 per share, if
the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted loss per
share of $0.23 per share.
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share if the Company
had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based awards
granted under the Companys stock option plans for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005. For purposes of this pro-forma disclosure, the fair value of the
options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula (Black-Scholes
model) and amortized to expense over the options requisite service periods (vesting
periods).

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards to
employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of
the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over
the requisite service periods in the Companys Statements of Operations. Stock-based
compensation expense recognized in the Statements of Operations for the second quarter of
fiscal 2006 included compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to,
but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in
accordance with the pro-forma provisions of SFAS 123 and compensation expense for the
share-based payment awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 based on the grant date
fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). For stock-based
awards issued to employees and directors, stock-based compensation is attributed to
expense using the straight-line single option method, which is consistent with how the
prior-period pro formas were provided. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in
the Statements of Operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 is based on awards
ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. SFAS 123(R)
requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in
subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. In our pro-forma
information required under SFAS 123 for the periods prior to fiscal 2006, the Company
accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to
employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25. Under
the intrinsic value method, the Company recognized share-based compensation equal to the
awards intrinsic value at the time of grant over the requisite service periods using the
straight-line method. Forfeitures were recognized as incurred.

The Companys determination of fair value of share-based payment awards to employees
and directors on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model, which is affected by the
Companys stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and
subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock
price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock
option exercise behaviors.
The Company has elected to adopt the detailed method provided in SFAS 123(R) for
calculating the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (APIC pool)
related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the
subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of
employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding upon adoption of SFAS
123(R).
As of December 31, 2005, there was $142,187 of total unrecognized compensation costs
related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2004 Stock
Option Plan (see Note 9). This cost was written off against Additional Paid-in Capital
when SFAS 123(R) was adopted.
The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued to non-employees for goods
and services using the guidance of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)
No. 96-18: Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for
Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, whereby the fair value of
such option and warrant grants is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model
at the earlier of the date at which the non-employees performance is completed or a
performance commitment is reached.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of 2005 amounts have been made to conform with the 2006
presentation.
2. | Net loss per share |
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury
stock method, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that
then shared in the earnings of the Company. In computing diluted earnings per share, the
treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the
proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.
Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when
the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the
options and warrants. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the dilutive
impact of outstanding stock options of 7,328,299 and 16,508,561 respectively, and
outstanding warrants of 21,183,517 and 19,230,724 have been excluded because their impact
on the loss per share is antidilutive.

3. | Recent accounting pronouncements |
Statement No. 154
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154 (SFAS 154) Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. SFAS 154
changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting
principle. APB Opinion 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting
principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the
cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires
retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting
principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects of
the cumulative effect of the change. In the event of such impracticality, SFAS 154
provides for other means of application. In the event the Company changes accounting
principles, it will evaluate the impact of SFAS 154.
Statement No. 157
FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements,
issued in September 2006, establishes a formal framework for measuring fair value under
GAAP. It defines and codifies the many definitions of fair value included among various
other authoritative literature, clarifies and, in some instances, expands on the guidance
for implementing fair value measurements, and increases the level of disclosure required
for fair value measurements. Although SFAS No. 157 applies to and amends the provisions
of existing FASB and AICPA pronouncements, it does not, of itself, require any new fair
value measurements, nor does it establish valuation standards. SFAS No. 157 applies to
all other accounting pronouncements requiring or permitting fair value measurements,
except for; SFAS No. 123 (R), share-based payment and related pronouncements, the
practicability exceptions to fair value determinations allowed by various other
authoritative pronouncements, and AICPA Statements of Position 97-2 and 98-9 that deal
with software revenue recognition. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years.
Interpretation No. 48
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation
No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 establishes that the financial
statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return are to
be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on the
technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. FIN 48 is
effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently assessing the impact this new
standard will have on the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash
flows.
4. | Inventories |
At September 30, 2006 inventories consist of $3,719 of finished goods.

5. | Certain relationships and related transactions |
Advances from founding executive officer
All of the marketing and manufacturing rights for the ZEFS were acquired from founding
officer Jeffery A. Muller, for 5,000,000 shares of common stock, $500,000 and a $10
royalty for each unit sold (see discussion below), pursuant to the Agreement entered into
in December 1998, by and between the Company and Mr. Muller. Working capital advances in
the amount of $517,208 and payment in the amount of $500,000 for marketing and
distribution rights of the ZEFS are due to Mr. Muller. Such amounts are interest free and
do not have any due dates for payment.
In January 2000, the Company entered into an agreement offering Mr. Muller and Lynne
Muller, Mr. Mullers wife, the option to purchase 5,000,000 shares each at $0.10 per share
as consideration for work performed for the Company. Mrs. Muller subsequently transferred
her option to Mr. Muller.
In connection with the Companys legal proceedings against Mr. Muller (see Note 11). The
Company has canceled (i) the 8,047,403 shares of its common stock held by Mr. Muller
and/or his affiliates, (ii) the options to acquire an additional 10,000,000 shares of the
Companys common stock held by Mr. Muller personally and (iii) the $1,017,208 of debt
which Mr. Muller claimed was owed to him by the Company.
Loans from related parties
Masry & Vititoe, a law firm in which Edward Masry, the Companys former Chief Executive
Officer, was a partner, had advanced $0 and $158,732 as of September 30, 2006 and December
31, 2005, respectively, to the Company for working capital purposes. Advances by Masry and
Vititoe were unsecured, non-interest bearing, and are due on demand. In April 2006, the
Company repaid advances due to Masry and Vititoe of $158,732.
In 2005, Eugene Eichler, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, advanced $45,000 to the
Company for working capital purposes. These advances were unsecured, bearing interest at
6% per annum and were due on demand. In February 2006, these advances were converted into
a convertible note (Note 7).
Interest expense recognized under related-party loans was immaterial for all periods
presented Interest expense recognized under related-party loans for the period from
inception (February 18, 1998) through September 30, 2006 was $327.
Lease agreement
During 2003, the Company had entered into a sublease lease agreement with an entity to
lease office space for its primary administrative facility. A director of the Company is
an indirect owner of the entity.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
In August 2005, the Company amended its sublease of a portion of a building in North
Hollywood, California from an entity that is owned by a director of the Company. The lease
term was from November 1, 2003 through October 16, 2005 and carried an option to renew for
two additional years with a 10 percent increase in the rental rate. Monthly rent under
this lease is $3,740 per month under this lease as amended as of December 31, 2005. The
Company exercised its option to renew the lease through October 15, 2007.
In January 2006, the Company amended the existing sublease agreement, as a result of
taking more space and obtaining expanded support services. The sublease was amended to
July 31, 2007 and carries an option to renew for two additional years with a 10 percent
increase in the rental rate. Monthly rent is $6,208 per month under this amended sublease.
During the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, rent expense under the sublease
was $18,624 and $10,200, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, rent expense under the sublease
was $55,872 and $23,800, respectively. Lease expense under the sublease prior to 2004 was
immaterial.
6. | Equity line of credit |
In September 2006, the Company entered into what is sometimes termed an equity line of
credit arrangement. Under the line of credit the Company may, but is not obligated to, put shares of common stock from time to time over a 36-month period, at a purchase price
calculated at 97% of the lowest best closing bid for the Companys common stock for the five
trading days following the put notice. The Company may draw up to $10,000,000 under the
line of credit. Because the price of the common stock fluctuates and the number of shares
of common stock, if any, that the Company may issue, should exercise the put rights under
the equity line of credit, will vary, the Company does not know how many shares, if any,
will actually issue under the equity line of credit. As of September 30, 2006, the Company

factors of the expected market price of common stock of 130.61%; and an expected life of two
years (statutory term). The company also determined that the notes contained a beneficial
conversion feature of $290,248.
The value of the Warrants of $620,252, the conversion option of $290,248, and the
transaction fees of $89,500 are considered as debt discount and are being amortized over the
life of the Notes.

for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, and had a working capital deficiency of
$340,704 and a stockholders equity of $25,815 at September 30, 2006. These factors raise

additional funds and implement
its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be
necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Legal matters
On December 19, 2001, the SEC filed civil charges in the United States Federal District
Court, Southern District of New York, against us, the Companys former President and then
sole director Jeffrey A. Muller, and others, alleging that the Company and the other
defendants were engaged in a fraudulent scheme to promote our stock. The SEC complaint
alleged the existence of a promotional campaign using press releases, Internet postings,
an elaborate website, and televised media events to disseminate false and materially
misleading information as part of a fraudulent scheme to manipulate the market for stock
in the corporation, which was then controlled by Mr. Muller. On March 22, 2002, the
Company signed a consent to final judgment of permanent injunction and other relief in
settlement of this action as against the corporation only, which the court approved on
July 2, 2002. Under this settlement, the Company was not required to admit fault and did
not pay any fines or restitution. The SECs charges of fraud and stock manipulation
continue against Mr. Muller and others.
On July 2, 2002, after an investigation by the Companys newly constituted board of
directors, the Company filed a cross-complaint in the SEC action against Mr. Muller and
others seeking injunctive relief, disgorgement of monies and stock and financial
restitution for a variety of acts and omissions in connection with sales of the Companys
stock and other transactions occurring between 1998 and 2002. Among other things, the
Company alleged that Mr. Muller and certain others sold company stock without providing
adequate consideration to the Company; sold insider shares without making proper
disclosures and failed to make necessary filings required under federal securities laws;
engaged in self-dealing and entered into various undisclosed related-party transactions;
misappropriated for their own use proceeds from sales of the Companys stock; and entered
into various undisclosed arrangements regarding the control, voting and disposition of
their stock. The Company contends that it is entitled to a judgment canceling all of the
approximately 8,716,710 shares of the Companys common stock that were previously obtained
and controlled, directly or indirectly, by Mr. Muller; divesting and preventing any
subsequent holders of the right to exercise options previously held by Mr. Muller for
10,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock, conversion of an existing preliminary
injunction to a permanent injunction to prevent Mr. Muller from any involvement with the
Company and a monetary judgment against Mr. Muller and others in the amount of several
million dollars.
In the course of the litigation, the Company has obtained ownership control over Mr.
Mullers claimed patent rights to the ZEFS device. Under a Buy-Sell Agreement between Mr.
Muller and the Company dated December 29, 1998, Mr. Muller, who was listed on the ZEFS
devise patent application as the inventor of the ZEFS device, purported to grant us all
international marketing, manufacturing and distribution rights to the ZEFS device. Those
rights were disputed because
an original inventor of the ZEFS device contested Mr. Mullers legal ability to have
conveyed those rights.

In Australia, Mr. Muller entered into a bankruptcy action seeking to overcome the
Companys claims for ownership of the ZEFS device. In conjunction with these litigation
proceedings, a settlement agreement was reached whereby the $10 per unit royalty
previously due to Mr. Muller under his contested Buy-Sell Agreement was terminated and
replaced with a $.20 per unit royalty payable to the bankruptcy trustee. On November 7,
2002, under a settlement agreement executed with the Mr. Mullers bankruptcy trustee, the
trustee transferred to the Company all ownership and legal rights to this international
patent application for the ZEFS device.
Both the SEC and the Company have filed Motions for Summary Judgment contending that there
are no material issues of fact in contention and as a matter of law, the Court should
grant a judgment against Mr. Muller and the cross-defendants. Mr. Muller has filed a
response contending the motions are without merit or substance.
Mr. Muller and several of the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the complaint filed by
the Company and moved for summary judgment in their favor. On December 21, 2004, Judge
George B. Daniels denied the cross-defendants motion to dismiss the Companys
cross-complaint, denied the request to vacate the July 2, 2002 preliminary injunction and
denied the request for damages against the Company. The court also refused to grant a
summary judgment in favor of the cross-defendants and dismissed Mr. Mullers claims
against the Company for indemnification for his legal costs and for damages resulting from
the litigation. Neither Mr. Muller nor any of the cross-defendants have filed any
cross-claims against the Company and the Company is not exposed to any liability as a
result of the litigation, except for possibly incurring legal fees and expenses should the
Company lose the litigation.
On November 16, 2005, the Court granted the SECs motion for summary judgment. In granting
the motion, the Court has barred Mr. Muller from serving as an officer or director of a
public company for a period of 20 years, ordered Mr. Muller to disgorge any shares of our
stock that he still owns and directed the Company to cancel any issued and outstanding
shares of our stock still owned by Mr. Muller. Mr. Muller was also ordered to disgorge to
the SEC unlawful profits in the amount of $7.5 million and a pay a civil penalty in the
amount of $100,000. Acting in accordance with the Courts order, the Company has canceled
(i) 8,047,403 shares of its common stock held by Mr. Muller and/or his affiliates, (ii)
options to acquire an additional 10,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock held by
Mr. Muller personally and (iii) $1,017,208 of debt which Mr. Muller claimed was owed to
him by the Company.
In response to the November 16, 2005 decision by the Court, Muller filed a motion seeking
to set aside the decision and order of the Court. On March 31, 2006, the Court issued a
decision and order denying Mullers motion to set aside the decision on summary judgment
issued against Muller on November 16, 2005.

On October 27, 2006, Magistrate Judge Frank Maas, Federal District Court of the
Southern District of New York, issued an order granting summary judgment in favor of the
Company. The ruling provided that all shares, options and any other obligations allegedly
owed by the Company to Jeffrey A. Muller, its former Chairman, were to be disgorged. The
ruling also confirmed an earlier decision issued on November 16, 2005 in favor of the SEC
holding Mr. Muller liable for $7.5 million in actual damages, imposing a $100,000 fine and
barring Muller from any involvement with a publicly traded company for 20 years. With
prejudgment interest, this ruling brings the actual damages against Muller to over $9
million. Additionally, the Court further clarified that the scope of its previous
disgorgement order required the disgorgement of any shares of the Companys stock that Mr.
Muller or any of his nominees directly or indirectly own or control. The Company has
taken action to cancel over 3.6 million shares which had been issued to the offshore
companies.
The Court also confirmed the appropriateness of an action previously taken by the Company
to acquire the patent rights and to consolidate the manufacturing, marketing and
distribution rights with its ownership of all rights to the existing patents.
Finally, the Court ruled that Mr. Muller had no claim to an alleged $500,000 debt owed to
him while damages of over $9 million remain unpaid. The Court also ruled that other
assets that were transferred by Mr. Muller to members of his family through various
offshore corporations were also to be disgorged. Because the Court left unresolved an
issue concerning claims against one Muller family member, it is expected that the Company
will seek a modification of the order. With this exception, this order provides the
complete relief requested by the Company in its motion for summary judgment.
In April 2005, Jeffrey A. Muller, the Companys former sole director and executive
officer, filed a lawsuit in the Federal District Court for the Central District of
California, seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and alleging unfair competition in
connection with a claimed prior patent interest in the ZEFS device and stock option
rights. In seeking declaratory relief, Mr. Muller is seeking to have the patent rights in
the ZEFS device that were previously transferred to the Company by Mr. Mullers bankruptcy
trustee declared null and void.
This lawsuit brought by Mr. Muller arises out of the same claims that are the subject of
ongoing litigation in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, in
which the Company has previously obtained a preliminary injunction against Mr. Muller
barring him from any involvement with the Company and preventing Mr. Muller, his agents or
assigns, from exercising any claimed rights to the Companys assets or stock. Mr. Muller
previously filed the same complaint in the Federal District Court for the Southern
District of New York, which claim is pending dismissal. On December 28, 2004, Federal
District Court Judge George B. Daniels issued a decision dismissing motions filed by Mr.
Muller against the Companys cross-claims. The dismissal of those motions involved
similar causes of action as those contained in Mr. Mullers recent lawsuit commenced in
the Federal District Court for the Central District of
California. Since the case in New York is still pending, the filing of the new lawsuit in
California is subject to various defenses which should result in the dismissal of the new
lawsuit.

On January 25, 2006, Mr. Mullers complaint, filed in the California District Court
and transferred to the Federal Court in the Southern District of New York, was assigned to
Judge George B. Daniels. It is expected that the Court will consolidate that complaint
with the already pending claims encompassed within the Companys Motion for Summary
Judgment. While the Company believes that it will have valid claims and defenses, there
can be no assurance that an adverse result or outcome on the pending motions or a trial of
this case would not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or
cash flow.
13. | Subsequent events |

Table of Contents
We are a development stage company that has not yet generated revenues. Historically, we
devoted the bulk of our efforts to the completion of the design, the development of our production
models and the promotion of our products in the marketplace worldwide. Our products, based on our
ZEFS, MK IV and CAT-MATE® technologies, are designed to reduce harmful emissions and/or improve
fuel efficiency and overall performance on equipment and vehicles driven by internal combustion
engines.
We have taken actions to secure our intellectual property rights to the ZEFS, MK IV and
CAT-MATE technologies. We are currently negotiating to secure a
license covering certain United States and Canadian patents held by a
third party. These patents include claims purporting to cover certain
features incorporated in some of our products. We expect to complete
these negotiations and execute a non-exclusive license agreement with
this third party in the near future. In order to continue to secure
our intellectual property rights in the future, we may be required
to take further actions, including seeking other patent licenses and
prosecuting or defending infringement claims.
During 2005 and continuing in 2006, we began to focus on the initial marketing of our
products. We entered into the first agreements for the distribution of our products in late 2005
and early 2006. Our first two U.S. distributorship agreements with Team Phantom of Alaska and
Motorcycle Products Consulting, or MPC, of California, provides for the sale of products
incorporating our ZEFS technologies in the North American original equipment manufacturer, or OEM,
and after-market for motorcycles through the distributors to certain named prospective purchasers.
In January 2006, we entered into our first international distributorship agreement, with
Golden Allied Enterprises (Group) Co., Ltd., or GAE. The agreement provides that GAE will serve as
our exclusive distributor for products incorporating our ZEFS or CAT-MATE technologies in the
Peoples Republic of China. The agreement with GAE was conditioned upon our ZEFS-based products
achieving EURO2 standards in tests to be conducted in Shanghai. These tests were conducted and
passed in April 2006.
In July 2006, GAE placed its first order under the distributorship agreement, for 100,000
units, to be shipped in installments between now and July 2007. These products are in production
and we anticipate that we will begin delivering products under the agreement to GAE commencing in
November 2006, and will begin generating revenue in late 2006.
In April 2006, we entered into a product development agreement with Kwong Kee (Qing Xin)
Environmental Exhaust Systems Company, Ltd., or Kwong Kee, in China. Kwong Kee, a manufacturer of
mufflers and catalytic converters, will collaborate with us on product development based on our
CAT-MATE technology. As part of our strategic alliance, Kwong Kee will make available its research
and development facilities, testing equipment and product design and development support team.
In July 2006, we entered into an agreement with Quadrant Technology L.P., or Quadrant,
pursuant to which Quadrant will provide product development services for our products. Under this
agreement, Quadrant was also granted a right of first refusal to manufacture products incorporating
our ZEFS or MKIV technologies.
Also in July 2006, we entered into an agreement with Marketing Matters, Inc. to provide
exclusive agency services in the United States for advertising, marketing, industry and trade show
promotion, as well as packaging design services. We entered into a separate agreement with SS Sales
and Marketing Group, to provide marketing and promotional services in the western United States and
western Canada for our products.
As part of our ongoing product development, we are in the process of launching two new product
lines, ECO ChargR and MAG ChargR, which we differentiate
34
Table of Contents
based on their differing magnetic fluxes and their applications. ECO ChargR products will be
more focused toward reduction in emissions and MAG ChargR products will be more focused toward
performance and fuel economy. ECO ChargR products will tend to incorporate MK IV technology, but
may incorporate ZEFS technologies, while MAG ChargR products will tend to incorporate ZEFS
technologies, but may incorporate MK IV technology.
The ECO ChargR product line incorporates our ZEFS or MK IV technologies, and is intended
specifically for the reduction of exhaust emissions in vehicle and small utility motors. These
products will be marketed primarily to OEMs as well as pilot and government-mandated emissions
programs.
The MAG ChargR product line incorporates our ZEFS or MK IV technologies, as well as other
power enhancing features, to exploit the power and mileage improving attributes of our magnetic
technologies. MAG ChargR will be marketed primarily to the consumer aftermarket for many vehicles,
including but not limited to cars, trucks, motorcycles, scooters, all terrain vehicles (ATVs),
snowmobiles, personal watercrafts and small utility motors.
In October 2006, subsequent to the end of the third quarter, we appointed PT Carbon Credit
Indonesia, or PT CCI, to serve as our exclusive distributor for products incorporating our MAG
ChargR, ECO ChargR and CAT-MATE technologies in Indonesia. Our wholly-owned subsidiary,
STWA Asia Pte. Limited, and PT CCI have entered into a distribution agreement under which PT CCI
has agreed to establish a letter of credit to support its initial order of 10,000 units, which
order will be placed before November 30, 2006. The distribution agreement provides that PT CCI is
required to purchase 600,000 units over a five-year period in order to remain the exclusive
distributor of our products in Indonesia.
In addition, we are continuing our marketing efforts to international governmental entities in
cooperation with the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and various OEMs and the
aftermarket to sell or license products using our ZEFS and CAT-MATE technologies. We anticipate
that these efforts will continue during the remainder of 2006.
In July 2004, we entered into a license agreement with Temple University, for a research
project with Dr. Rongjia Tao as principal investigator. That project and the related products
involve the development and commercialization of underwater and cold temperature applications for
improving oil flow under different temperature and pressure conditions. Under the license
agreement, we hold the worldwide exclusive rights to this technology. On May 14, 2004, we filed a
patent application in Australia (Method and Apparatus for a Treatment of Fuel), which was
subsequently assigned by us to Temple University as part of the license agreement. An additional
patent application was recently filed covering several of the Gulf states. As a result of Dr.
Taos recent publicly-reported progress in reducing viscosity of crude oil with magnetic pulses, we
believe that this technology may have commercial viability and we are pursuing partners,
distributors and licensees in the United States, Gulf states region and Eastern Europe for products
incorporating this technology.

Table of Contents
Expenses have been funded primarily through the sale of stock and convertible debt. We have
raised capital in 2006 and will need to raise additional capital in 2006, and possibly beyond, to
fund our sales and marketing efforts, continuing research and development, and certain other
expenses, until our revenue base grows sufficiently.
In September 2006, we entered into what is sometimes termed an equity line of credit
arrangement with Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P., or Dutchess. Specifically, we entered into
an investment agreement, pursuant to which Dutchess is committed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of
our common stock over the 36-month term of the investment agreement. We are not obligated to
request any portion of the $10,000,000. As of the date of the filing of this report, we have drawn
down $115,462 of this commitment, leaving $9,884,538 available under the equity line of credit. See
Liquidity and Capital Resources below.
Since February 2, 2006, our common stock has been quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin
Board under the symbol ZERO.
Results of Operations
To date, we have not generated any revenues and our business continues in the development
stage. We have focused our efforts on verifying and developing our technologies and products and
commencing marketing efforts for their sale. We expect to begin generating revenue in the fourth
quarter 2006.
General and administrative expenses were $1,718,614 for the three-month period ended September
30, 2006, compared to $730,817 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2005, an increase of
$987,797. This increase is attributable to increases in non-cash expenses in the amount of
$614,591 and increases in cash expenses in the amount of $373,206. The non-cash increases are the
revaluation of options and warrants amounting to $572,931 and depreciation of $41,660. Increases
in cash expenses were made up of salaries, benefits and consulting fees of $82,806; professional
fees of $104,084; marketing and exhibits of $78,260; travel of $52,129; rent and utilities of
$23,530 and $32,397 of other office expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $5,326,222 for the nine-month period ended September
30, 2006, compared to $1,954,348 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, an increase of
$3,371,874. This increase is attributable to increases in non-cash expenses in the amount of
$2,200,806 and increases in cash expenses in the amount of $1,171,068. The non-cash increases are
the revaluation of options and warrants amounting to $2,106,465 and depreciation of $94,341.
Increases in cash expenses were made up of salaries, benefits and consulting fees of $451,941;
professional fees of $276,700; marketing and exhibits of $89,760; travel of $111,201; rent and
utilities of $82,223; corporate expense of $52,094 and $107,149 of other office expenses.
Research and development expenses were $95,608 for the three-month period ended September 30,
2006, compared to $452,571 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of
$356,963. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in research expenses by RAND Corporation of
$324,277; a decrease in expenses at our
36
Table of Contents
Australian R&D center of $42,997, offset in part by increases in expenses of $10,311 at our Morgan
Hill R&D center.
Research and development expenses were $274,713 for the nine-month period ended September 30,
2006, compared to $1,066,068 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of
$791,355. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in research expense by RAND Corporation of
$785,000; a decrease in expenses at our Australian R&D center of $80,510, offset in part by
increases in expenses of $74,155 at our Morgan Hill R&D center.
Other income (expense) was $(146,803) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006,
compared to $(28,270) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2005, an increase of $118,533.
This increase is attributable to an increase in non-cash interest expense in the amount of
$121,729, offset by a decrease in cash interest expense of $2,770 and an increase in other income
of $5,966.
Other income (expense) was $(2,349,620) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006,
compared to $(28,839) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, an increase of
$2,320,781. This increase is attributable to an increase in non-cash interest expense in the
amount of $2,235,554; an increase in cash interest expense of $98,294, offset by an increase in
other income of $13,067.
We expect our operating expenses to increase during the balance of fiscal year 2006, primarily
as a result of increases in marketing and sales activities.
We had a net loss of $1,961,025, or $0.05 per share for the three-month period ended September
30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $1,211,658, or $0.03 per share for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2005. We had a net loss of $7,951,355, or $0.23 per share for the nine-month period
ended September 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $3,051,231, or $0.08 per share for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2005. We expect to incur additional net loss in the fiscal
year ending December 31, 2006, primarily attributable to continued marketing-related expenditures
without the benefit of any significant revenue for the remainder of the year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have incurred negative cash flow from operations in the development stage since our
inception in 1998. As of September 30, 2006, we had cash of $433,496 and an accumulated deficit of
$28,197,429. Our negative operating cash flow since inception has been funded primarily through
the sale of common stock, issuance of convertible debt, and, to a lesser degree, by proceeds we
received from the exercise of options and warrants.
The financial statements accompanying this Report have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the
normal course of our business. As reflected in the
37
Table of Contents
accompanying financial statements, we had a net loss of $1,961,025 and negative cash flow from
operations of $1,556,864 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006, a net loss of
$7,951,355 and negative cash flow from operations of $ 4,006,757 for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2006 and a stockholders equity of $25,815 as of September 30, 2006. These factors
raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue
as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional funds and implement our business
plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are
unable to continue as a going concern.
As of September 30, 2006, our expenses ran, and are expected to continue to run, at a burn
rate of approximately $400,000 per month. Our current capital resources are limited and we will
require additional capital in order to operate. We anticipate that at least a portion of our cash
flow needs will be satisfied by the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase our common stock,
at variable prices, which are coming due at various times this year. In addition, we have entered
into a $10 million finance facility, sometimes referred to as an equity line of credit, with
Dutchess, to provide funding for operations, the terms of which facility are described in more
detail below.
In 2005, we sold an aggregate principal amount of $1,501,378 of our 9% convertible
subordinated notes (the Investor Notes) due July 31, 2006, to certain investors. All of the
Investor Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,501,378 and $3,707 of accrued interest were
converted voluntarily by the holders of the Investor Notes into an aggregate 2,150,122 shares of
our common stock, at a conversion price of $0.70 per share. Of these amounts, subsequent to the
end of the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 and prior to the maturity date of the Investor
Notes, $1,127,658 aggregate principal amount of Investor Notes (representing 100% of the
outstanding principal amount of the then-outstanding notes) and $112 of accrued interest, were
converted voluntarily by the holders of the Investor Notes into 1,611,100 shares of our common
stock, at a conversion price of $0.70 per share.
In late 2005 and early 2006, we conducted an offering (the Bridge Offering) and sold an
aggregate $1,075,000 principal amount of our 9% convertible subordinated notes (the Bridge Notes)
and issued warrants (Bridge Warrants) to purchase up to 2,303,568 shares of our common stock at
$1.00 per share, to certain investors. Net proceeds to us from the sale of the Bridge Notes were
$935,250. All of the Bridge Notes were converted voluntarily by the holders of the Bridge Notes
into 1,535,715 shares of our common stock (the Bridge Shares), at a conversion price of $0.70 per
share, on or prior to the maturity date of the Bridge Notes on May 31, 2006.
In 2006, we have raised capital through the sale of our common stock, to provide some of the
funds necessary to continue to execute on our business plan. In April, 2006, we conducted an
offering (the Overseas Offering) and sold 473,000 shares of our common stock at $1.56 per share
and issued warrants to purchase up to 118,250 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of
$2.60 per share, to two overseas investors. We raised $737,881 gross proceeds ($667,803 net
proceeds) in this offering.
In May 2006, we conducted an offering (the PIPE Offering) and sold 873,018 shares of our
common stock (the PIPE Shares) at $1.89 per share and issued warrants
38
Table of Contents
(the PIPE Warrants) to purchase up to 436,511 shares of our common stock at $2.70 per share,
through our exclusive placement agent, Spencer Clarke LLC of New York. We raised $1,650,009 gross
proceeds ($1,435,508 net proceeds) in the PIPE Offering.
On June 28, 2006, we filed a registration statement to register the Bridge Shares and the PIPE
Shares, and the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Bridge Warrants, the PIPE
Warrants and warrants issued to Spencer Clarke LLC for various investment banking and other related
services, including services in connection with the Bridge Offering, the Overseas Offering and the
PIPE Offering. The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 24, 2006.
During the three month period ended September 30, 2006, we also raised $400,702 gross and net
proceeds through the exercise of outstanding warrants.
In September 2006, to address our longer-term capital needs, we entered into what is sometimes
referred to as an equity line of credit arrangement with Dutchess. Specifically, we entered into
an investment agreement, pursuant to which Dutchess is committed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of
our common stock over the 36-month term of the investment agreement. We are not obligated to
request any portion of the $10,000,000.
Under the line of credit we may, but are not obligated to, put shares of our stock to Dutchess
from time to time over a 36-month period, at a purchase price calculated at 97% of the lowest best
closing bid for our common stock for the five trading days following our put notice to Dutchess.
Because the price of our common stock fluctuates and the number of shares of our common stock, if
any, that we may issue, should we exercise our put rights under the equity line of credit, will
vary, we do not know how many shares, if any, we will actually issue under the equity line of
credit. If we put more than the amount that would require us to issue the 7,000,000 shares that we
have registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC), we would be required to file a new registration statement with regard
to the excess number of shares and have it declared effective by the SEC, before we could make
further puts under the equity line of credit.
The actual number of shares that we may issue pursuant to the equity line of credit is not
determinable as it is based on the market price of our common stock from time to time and the
number of shares we desire to put to Dutchess. Under the terms of the equity line of credit, Dutchess may not own more than 4.99% of our
issued and outstanding stock at any one time.

If we draw down on the equity line of credit, more shares will be sold into the market by
Dutchess. These additional shares could cause our stock price to drop. In turn, if the stock price
drops and we make more drawdowns on the equity line of credit, more shares will come into the
market, which could cause a further drop in the stock price. You should be aware that there is an
inverse relationship between our stock price and the number of shares to be issued pursuant to the
equity line of credit. If our stock price declines, we will be required to issue a greater number
of shares under the equity line of credit. We have no obligation to utilize the full amount
available under the equity line of credit.
As
of the date of the filing of this report, we have drawn down $123,818 of this commitment,
leaving $9,876,182 available under the equity line of credit, and for which we filed a registration
statement, registering 7,000,000 shares, or approximately 17.8% of our issued and outstanding stock
before any such issuances, with the SEC. The SEC
declared the registration statement that we filed effective on October 30, 2006. As of the date of
the filing of this report, we have issued to Dutchess 101,771 shares of our common stock in
connection with drawdowns under the equity line of credit.
We believe that exercises of in-the-money options and warrants, together with sales of our
securities in other financings we have undertaken and may undertake in the future, will provide
most of the proceeds needed to meet our capital requirements on a going forward basis. However,
there can be no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available on terms
favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to delay,
reduce the scope of, or eliminate, our ongoing research and development programs, reduce our
marketing and sales activities, or relinquish rights to technologies that we might otherwise seek
to development or commercialize.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our
Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Financial Statements and related
disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate, on
an on-going basis, our estimates and judgments, including those related to the useful life of the
assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies
have a significant impact on the results that we report in our Financial Statements. The SEC
considers an entitys most critical accounting policies to be those policies that are both most
important to the portrayal of a companys financial condition and results of operations and those
that require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the
need to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain at the time of estimation. We
believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, require significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of our Financial Statements:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
40
Table of Contents
expenses during the reporting period. Certain significant estimates were made in connection with
preparing our financial statements as described in Note 2 to Notes to Financial Statements. See
Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2006, we adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised
2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R), which requires the measurement and recognition of
compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on
estimated fair values. SFAS 123R supersedes our previous accounting under Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) for periods beginning
in fiscal 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) relating to SFAS 123R. We have applied the provisions of SAB 107 in
our adoption of SFAS 123R.
We adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the
application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first day of our 2006 fiscal
year. Stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123R for employees and directors for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $594,718 and $1,809,493, respectively. Basic
and diluted loss per share would have been $(0.04) for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and
$(0.18) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, if we had not adopted SFAS 123R, compared to
reported basic and diluted loss per share of $(0.05) and $(0.23) per share, respectively. As of
September 30, 2006, there is $900,173 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested
options that are expected to vest through February 2007. The weighted average period over which
this expense is to be recognized is approximately three months.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections a
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS No. 154). SFAS No. 154 changes
the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. APB
Opinion 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by
including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new
accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial
statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the
period-specific effects of the cumulative effect of the change. In the event of such
impracticality, SFAS No. 154 provides for other means of application. In the event the Company
changes accounting principles, it will evaluate the impact of SFAS No. 154.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No.
48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 establishes that the financial statement effects of
a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return are to be recognized in the financial
statements when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will
be sustained upon
41
Table of Contents
examination. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The
Company is currently assessing the impact this new standard will have on the consolidated results
of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No.
157), issued in September 2006, establishes a formal framework for measuring fair value under
GAAP. It defines and codifies the many definitions of fair value included among various other
authoritative literature, clarifies and, in some instances, expands on the guidance for
implementing fair value measurements, and increases the level of disclosure required for fair value
measurements. Although SFAS No. 157 applies to and amends the provisions of existing FASB and
AICPA pronouncements, it does not, of itself, require any new fair value measurements, nor does it
establish valuation standards. SFAS No. 157 applies to all other accounting pronouncements
requiring or permitting fair value measurements, except for; SFAS No. 123 (R), share-based payment
and related pronouncements, the practicability exceptions to fair value determinations allowed by
various other authoritative pronouncements, and AICPA Statements of Position 97-2 and 98-9 that
deal with software revenue recognition. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal
years.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures: Our management evaluated, with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-QSB. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) are not adequate to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms. We have developed, and have partially implemented, a plan to ensure that all information
will be recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. This plan is dependent, in
part, upon reallocation of responsibilities among various personnel, hiring additional personnel
and additional funding. We began to implement this plan during 2005, including the hiring in August
2005 of a Controller who is a Certified Public Accountant. It should also be noted that the design
of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals
under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting: There was no change in our internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-QSB that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On December 19, 2001, the SEC filed civil charges in the United States Federal District Court,
Southern District of New York, against us, our former President and then sole director Jeffrey A.
Muller, and others, alleging that we and the other defendants were engaged in a fraudulent scheme
to promote our stock. The SEC complaint alleged the existence of a promotional campaign using press
releases, Internet postings, an elaborate website, and televised media events to disseminate false
and materially misleading information as part of a fraudulent scheme to manipulate the market for
stock in our corporation, which was then controlled by Mr. Muller. On March 22, 2002, we signed a
Consent to Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief in settlement of this action as
against the corporation only, which the court approved on July 2, 2002. Under this settlement, we
were not required to admit fault and did not pay any fines or restitution. The SECs charges of
fraud and stock manipulation continue against Mr. Muller and others.
On July 2, 2002, after an investigation by our newly constituted board of directors, we filed
a cross-complaint in the SEC action against Mr. Muller and others seeking injunctive relief,
disgorgement of monies and stock and financial restitution for a variety of acts and omissions in
connection with sales of our stock and other transactions occurring between 1998 and 2002. Among
other things, we alleged that Mr. Muller and certain others sold Company stock without providing
adequate consideration to us; sold insider shares without making proper disclosures and failed to
make necessary filing required under federal securities laws; engaged in self-dealing and entered
into various undisclosed related-party transactions; misappropriated for their own use proceeds
from sales of our stock; and entered into various undisclosed arrangement regarding the control,
voting and disposition of their stock. On July 30, 2002, the U.S. Federal District Court, Southern
District of New York, granted our application for a preliminary injunction against Mr. Muller and
others, which prevented Mr. Muller and other cross-defendants from selling, transferring, or
encumbering any assets and property previously acquired from us, from selling or transferring any
of our stock that they may own or control, or from taking any action to injure us or our business
and from having any direct contact with our shareholders. The injunctive order also prevents Mr.
Muller from engaging in any effort to exercise control over our corporation and from serving as an
officer or director of our company. While we believe that we have valid claims, there can be no
assurance that an adverse result or settlement would not have a material adverse effect on our
financial position or cash flow.
In the course of the litigation, we have obtained ownership control over Mr. Mullers claimed
patent rights to the ZEFS device. Under a Buy-Sell Agreement between Mr. Muller and dated December
29, 1998, Mr. Muller, who was listed on the ZEFS devise patent application as the inventor of the
ZEFS device, purported to grant us all international marketing, manufacturing and distribution
rights to the ZEFS device. Those rights were disputed because an original inventor of the ZEFS
device contested Mr. Mullers legal ability to have conveyed those rights.
43
Table of Contents
In Australia, Mr. Muller entered into a bankruptcy action seeking to overcome our claims for
ownership of the ZEFS device. In conjunction with these litigation proceedings, a settlement
agreement was reached with the bankruptcy trustee whereby the $10 per unit royalty previously due
to Mr. Muller under his contested Buy-Sell Agreement was terminated and replaced with a $.20 per
unit royalty payable to the bankruptcy trustee. On November 7, 2002, under a settlement agreement
executed with Mr. Mullers bankruptcy trustee, the trustee transferred to us all ownership and
legal rights to this international patent application for the ZEFS device.
Both the SEC and we filed Motions for Summary Judgment contending that there are no material
issues of fact in contention and as a matter of law, the Court should grant a judgment against Mr.
Muller and the cross-defendants.
Mr. Muller and several of the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the complaint filed by us
and moved for summary judgment in their favor. On December 28, 2004, Judge George B. Daniels,
denied the cross-defendants motion to dismiss our cross-complaint, denied the defendants request
to vacate the July 2, 2002 preliminary injunction and denied their request for damages against us.
The court also refused to grant a summary judgment in favor of the cross-defendants and dismissed
Mr. Mullers claims against us for indemnification for his legal costs and for damages resulting
from the litigation. Neither Mr. Muller nor any of the cross-defendants have filed any cross-claims
against us and we are not exposed to any liability as a result of the litigation, except for
possibly incurring legal fees and expenses should we lose the litigation.
On November 16, 2005, the Court granted the SECs motion for summary judgment. In granting the
motion, the Court has barred Mr. Muller from serving as an officer or director of a public company
for a period of 20 years, ordered Mr. Muller to disgorge any shares of our stock that he still owns
and directed the Company to cancel any issued and outstanding shares of our stock still owned by
Mr. Muller. Mr. Muller was also ordered to disgorge to the SEC unlawful profits in the amount of
$7.5 million and a pay a civil penalty in the amount of $100,000. Acting in accordance with the
ruling and decision of the Court, we have canceled (i) 8,047,403 shares of its common stock held by
Mr. Muller and/or his affiliates, (ii) options to acquire an additional 10,000,000 shares of our
common stock held by Mr. Muller personally and (iii) $1,017,208 of debt which Mr. Muller claimed
was owed to him by the Company.
In response to the November 16, 2005 decision by the Court, Muller filed a motion seeking to
set aside the Decision and Order of the Court. On March 31, 2006, the Court issued a Decision and
Order denying Mullers Motion to set aside the Decision on Summary Judgment issued against Muller
on November 16, 2005.
On October 27, 2006, Magistrate Judge Frank Maas, Federal District Court of the Southern
District of New York, issued an order granting summary judgment in favor of the Company. The
ruling provided that all shares, options and any other obligations allegedly owed by the Company to
Jeffrey A. Muller, its former Chairman, were to be disgorged. The ruling also confirmed an earlier
decision issued on November 16, 2005 in favor of the SEC holding Mr. Muller liable for $7.5 million
in actual damages, imposing a $100,000 fine and barring Muller from any involvement with a publicly
traded company for 20 years. With prejudgment interest, this ruling brings the actual damages
44
Table of Contents
against Muller to over $9 million. Additionally, the Court further clarified that the scope
of its previous disgorgement order required the disgorgement of any shares of the Companys stock
that Mr. Muller or any of his nominees directly or indirectly own or control. The Company has
taken action to cancel over 3.6 million shares which had been issued to the offshore companies.
The Court also confirmed the appropriateness of an action previously taken by the Company to
acquire the patent rights and to consolidate the manufacturing, marketing and distribution rights
with its ownership of all rights to the existing patents.
Finally, the Court ruled that Mr. Muller had no claim to an alleged $500,000 debt owed to him
while damages of over $9 million remain unpaid. The Court also ruled that other assets that were
transferred by Mr. Muller to members of his family through various offshore corporations were also
to be disgorged. Because the Court left unresolved an issue concerning claims against one Muller
family member, it is expected that the Company will seek a modification of the order. With this
exception, this order provides the complete relief requested by the Company in its motion for
summary judgment.
In April 2005, Jeffrey A. Muller, the Companys former sole director and executive officer,
filed a complaint against us in the Federal District Court for the Central District of California,
seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and alleging unfair competition in connection with a
claimed prior patent interest in the ZEFS device and stock option rights. In seeking declaratory
relief, Mr. Muller is seeking to have the patent rights in the ZEFS device that were previously
transferred to us by Mr. Mullers bankruptcy trustee declared null and void.
This lawsuit brought by Mr. Muller arose out of the same claims that are the subject of
ongoing litigation in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, in which we
have previously obtained a preliminary injunction against Mr. Muller barring him from any
involvement with the Company and preventing Mr. Muller, his agents or assigns, from exercising any
claimed rights to our assets or stock. Mr. Muller previously filed the same complaint in the
Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, which claim is still pending. On
December 28, 2004, Federal District Court Judge George B. Daniels issued a decision dismissing
motions filed by Mr. Muller against our cross-claims. The dismissal of those motions involved
similar causes of action as those contained in Mr. Mullers recent lawsuit commenced in the Federal
District Court for the Central District of California. Since the case in New York is still pending,
we believe that the filing of the new lawsuit in California is subject to various defenses which
should result in the dismissal of the new lawsuit.
On January 25, 2006, Mr. Mullers complaint, filed in the California District Court and
transferred to the Federal Court in the Southern District of New York, was assigned to Judge George
B. Daniels. It is expected that the Court will consolidate that complaint with the already pending
claims encompassed within our Motion for Summary Judgment. While we believe that we have valid
claims and defenses, there can be no assurance that an adverse result or outcome on the pending
motions or a trial of this case would not have a material adverse effect on our financial position
or cash flow.
