NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 (UNAUDITED)

1. Organization and basis of presentation

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Save the World Air, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K for scaled disclosures for smaller reporting companies. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in United States of America for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2008 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $1,552,218 and a negative cash flow from operations of $489,701 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and had a working capital deficiency of $3,348,364 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $3,213,572 at March 31, 2009. In addition, the Company is in default of its obligations under its license agreements with Temple University (see Note 8). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Description of business

Save the World Air, Inc. (“STWA”) designs, licenses and develops products to increase engine performance, reduce harmful emissions and increase fuel efficiency. The Company is a green technology company that leverages a suite of patented, patent-pending and licensed intellectual properties related to the treatment of fuels. Technologies patented by or licensed to us utilize either magnetic or uniform electrical fields to alter physical characteristics of fuels and are designed to create cleaner combustion. Cleaner combustion has been shown to improve performance, enhance fuel economy and/or reduce harmful emissions in laboratory testing.

The Company has three product lines; MAG ChargR™ and ECO ChargR™, ELEKTRA™ and AOT (Applied Oil Technology). The Company believes development of MAG ChargR is complete and it will be ready to be manufactured by the end of second quarter 2009. We believe the ELEKTRA is nearing the end of the product development cycle which we believe will culminate in an upcoming SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) test to prove and certify the level of fuel savings. AOT is in the research and development phase.

The Company was incorporated on February 18, 1998, as a Nevada corporation, under the name Mandalay Capital Corporation. The Company changed its name to Save the World Air, Inc. on February 11, 1999, following the acquisition of marketing and manufacturing rights of the ZEFS technologies.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

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 Company’s development stage activities.

The Company’s focus is on product development and marketing 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 meaningful revenues. The technologies are called “ZEFS”, “MK IV”, “ELEKTRA” and “CAT-MATE”. The Company is currently marketing its ECO and MAG ChargR products incorporating ZEFS and MK IV technologies, worldwide; and the Company is in the early stages of developing ELEKTRA products. 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 and is the worldwide exclusive licensee for patent pending technologies associated with the development of ELEKTRA.

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 Company’s financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss 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 loss of the Company. In computing diluted loss 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 three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options of 4,551,225 and 2,515,396 respectively, and outstanding warrants of 11,133,635 and 15,608,024 have been excluded because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

Stock-based compensation

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share Based Payment”, effective February 1, 2006, and is using the modified prospective method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remained unvested on the effective date.

The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with 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" and EITF No. 00-18: "Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees" whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair Value Measurements are determined by the Company's adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, “Fair Vaule Measurements” ("SFAS 157") as of January 1, 2008, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities as permitted. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the Company's fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs based on the Company's assumptions.

SFAS 157 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement 141R, “Business Combinations (revised 2007)” (SFAS 141R”) was issued. SFAS 141R replaces SFAS 141 “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141R requires the acquirer of a business to recognize and measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value. SFAS 141R also requires transactions costs related to the business combination to be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The effective date, as well as the adoption date for the Company was January 1, 2009. Although SFAS 141R may impact our reporting in future financial periods, we have determined that the standard did not have any impact on our historical consolidated financial statements at the time of adoption.

In April 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”), which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142. This pronouncement requires enhanced disclosures concerning a company’s treatment of costs incurred to renew or extend the term of a recognized intangible asset. FST 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The effective date, as well as the adoption date for the Company was January 1, 2009. Although FSP 142-3 may impact our reporting in future financial periods, we have determined that the standard did not have any impact on our historical consolidated financial statements at the time of adoption.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. Certain relationships and related transactions

Loans from related parties

In May 2007 and August 2007, a former officer and incumbent director of the Company loaned $31,404 and $50,000 to the Company. These amounts are unsecured, bear interest at 6% per annum and are due on demand. At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the balance of these loans including interest was $79,351 and $78,280, respectively.

Lease agreement with related party

During 2003, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with Scottish Glen Golf Company, Inc. (SGGC) to lease office space in North Hollywood, California for its principal executive offices. Bruce McKinnon, the former Chief Executive Officer and former Director of the Company, is a beneficial owner of the lessor. The original lease term was from November 1, 2003 through October 16, 2005, and was amended to October 15, 2007. On July 19, 2007, SGGC sued the Company for failure to pay past due rent. The Company vacated the premises on July 25, 2007. On April 30, 2008 the Company and SGGC settled their pending litigation and the Company agreed to pay SGGC $51,000 in full settlement of SGGC’s claims.

Accounts payable to related parties

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had accounts payable to related parties in the amount of $125,292, which was composed of $87,504 in unpaid Directors Fees and $37,788 in unreimbursed expenses incurred by Officers and Directors. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had accounts payable to related parties in the amount of $93,003, which was composed of $59,705 in unpaid Directors Fees, $33,298 in unreimbursed expenses incurred by Officers and Directors.

Marketing and promotional services agreement with related party

In July 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with SS Sales and Marketing Group (“SS Sales”), to provide exclusive marketing and promotional services in the western United States and western Canada (the “Territory”) for the Company’s products. The agreement has a term of five years unless sooner terminated by either party on 30 days’ notice. In the event of termination, SS Sales will be entitled to receive all commissions payable through the date of termination. SS Sales is owned by Nathan Shelton, who has served as one of the directors of the Company since February 12, 2007. There were no payments made to SS Sales for the three month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008.

4. Loans and other payables due to Morale/Matthews

Leodis Matthews, through his law firm, Matthews & Partners, (“Matthews”) serves as outside legal counsel to the Company. Morale Orchards, LLC (“Morale”) is owned by Jacqueline Alexander, the wife of Leodis Matthews.

In 2006 and 2007, Morale purchased two convertible promissory notes totaling $1,225,000. The notes were unsecured, convertible into 1,595,588 shares of common stock, due one year from the date issued, and had an implied interest rate of 22.5%. Warrants to purchase 797,794 shares of common stock were issued with the notes. As of January 31, 2008, the notes were in default, and the total amount due for the notes was $1,362,212, including penalties and interest. In addition to the two notes, the Company borrowed $20,000 from Morale on October 30, 2007. At January 31, 2008, the Company was also indebted to Matthews $472,762 for past legal fee.

Effective January 31, 2008, the Company, Morale, and Matthews agreed to a settlement of the Company’s loans due Morale and fees due Matthews. Morale agreed to waive all accrued interest on the notes after January 31, 2008, and Morale and Matthews agreed to accept 7,421,896 shares of common stock of the Company as payment of the notes payable and fees.

On March 10, 2008, the Company issued 5,530,848 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $2,101,722 to Morale for the conversion of the notes (totaling $1,362,212) and cancellation of $20,000 Note. Also on March 10, 2008, the Company issued 1,891,048 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $718,598 to Matthews in exchange for settlement of the legal fees due Matthews of $472,762.

The fair value of the shares of common stock issued was determined to be $0.38 per share, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on January 31, 2008, for a total settlement of $2,820,320. As a result of the issuance of shares of common stock, the Company incurred additional non-cash costs of $927,903 that have been reflected as costs to settle outstanding debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

5. Convertible Debentures

Convertible debentures consist of the following:

Convertible debentures, net, others		$	533,431		$	290,659

2008 Summer Offering

From July 17, 2008 to August 31, 2008, the Company conducted an offering (the “2008 Summer Offering”) of up to $600,000 aggregate face amount of its convertible notes “the”2008 Summer Offering) with a small number of accredited investors. Of this amount $484,000 aggregate face amount of the 2008 Summer Notes were sold for an aggregate purchase price of $440,000 net proceeds. Therefore, while the stated interest rate on the 2008 Summer Notes is 0%, the implied interest rate on the 2008 Summer Notes is 10%. The 2008 Summer Notes will mature on the first anniversary of the date of issuance. The 2008 Summer Notes are convertible, at the option of the noteholders, into shares of common stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) at a conversion price equal to the average of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the five trading days preceding the closing date of the 2008 Summer Offering (the “Conversion Price”). Up to 1,423,530 Conversion Shares are issuable at a Conversion Price of $0.34 per share.

Each of the investors in the 2008 Summer Offering received, for no additional consideration, a warrant (the “ 2008 Summer Warrants”), entitling the holder to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares of common stock into which the ( 2008 Summer Notes) are convertible (the “2008 Summer Warrant Shares”). Each 2008 Summer Warrant is exercisable on a cash basis only at a price of $0.50 per share, and is exercisable for a period of two years from the date of issuance. Up to 711,764, 2008 Summer Warrant Shares are initially issuable upon exercise of the 2008 Summer Warrants. As of March 31, 2009, investors have converted $143,000 of the Convertible Notes into 420,589 shares of the Company’s common stock. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2009 was $341,000.

The aggregate value of the Summer 2008 Offering Warrants issued in connection with the August 31, 2008 closing were valued at $92,711 using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions; risk-free interest rate of 4.27%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility factors of the expected market price of common stock of 137.95%; and an expected life of two years (statutory term) and vest immediately upon issuance. The Company also determined that the notes contained a beneficial conversion feature of $179,416. The value of the Winter 2007 Offering Warrants, the beneficial conversion feature, and the transaction fees of $44,000 are considered as debt discount and are being amortized over the life of the Note.

2008 Fall Offering

From September 8, 2008 to October 31, 2008, the Company conducted an offering (the “2008 Fall Offering”) of up to $500,000 aggregate face amount of its Convertible Notes. A total of $198,220 aggregate face amount of the 2008 Fall Notes were sold for an aggregate purchase price of $180,200 net proceeds.

Temple University License Agreements

The Company has entered into a research and development agreement (R&D Agreement) with Temple University to conduct further research on the ELEKTRA technology. Under the R&D Agreement Temple University will conduct a 24-month research project towards expanding the scope of, and developing products utilizing, the technologies covered under the License Agreements, including design and manufacture of prototypes utilizing electric fields to improve diesel, gasoline and kerosene fuel injection in engines using such fuels and a device utilizing a magnetic field to reduce crude oil viscosity for crude oil (paraffin and mixed base) and edible oil flow in pipelines. If the research project yields results within the scope of the technologies licensed pursuant to the License Agreements, those results will be deemed included as rights licensed to the Company pursuant to the License Agreements. If the research project yields results outside of the scope of the technologies covered by the License Agreements, the Company has a six-month right of first negotiation to enter into a new worldwide, exclusive license agreement with Temple University for the intellectual property covered by those results.

The Company has entered into three License Agreements with Temple University covering Temple University’s current patent applications concerning certain electric field effects on gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel particle size distribution, and concerning electric field effects on crude oil and edible oil viscosity. Initially, the License Agreements are exclusive and the territory licensed to the Company is worldwide. Pursuant to the License Agreements, the Company will pay to Temple University (i) license fees in the aggregate amount of $300,000. A payment of $50,000 was due on November 1, 2006; a payment of $100,000 was due on March 2, 2007; a payment of $75, 000 was due on February 2, 2008 and the final payment was due on February 2, 2009.

Sales under the three License Agreements are not aggregated for purposes of calculating the royalties payable to Temple University. In addition, the Company has agreed to bear all costs of obtaining and maintaining patents in any jurisdiction where the Company directs Temple University to pursue a patent for either of the licensed technologies. Should the Company not wish to pursue a patent in a particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction would not be included in the territory licensed to the Company.

At December 31, 2008, the Company is in default in the amount of $300,000 in connection with its payment obligations under the License Agreements and maintenance payments. On November 10, 2008, the Company received written notice from Temple University of a material breach relating to required payments under the License Agreements. The notice provides the Company with 60 days’ notice to cure the material breach. The Company’s failure to cure could result in a termination of the License Agreements.

9. Commitments and contingencies

Legal matters

On December 19, 2001, the SEC filed civil charges in the United States Federal District Court, Southern District of New York, against the Company, the Company’s 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 the Company’s 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 Company which was then controlled by Mr. Muller. On March 22, 2002, the Company signed 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.

On July 2, 2002, after an investigation by the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 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 the Company’ 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 the Company’s 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 the Company, from selling or transferring any of the Company’s stock that they may have owned or controlled, or from taking any action to injure the Company or the Company’s business and from having any direct contact with the Company’s shareholders. The injunctive order also prevented Mr. Muller or his nominees from engaging in any effort to exercise control over the Company’s corporation and from serving as an officer or director of the Company. In the course of the litigation, the Company has obtained ownership control over all patent rights to the ZEFS device.

On January 4, 2007, the Court entered a final judgment against Jeffrey Muller which 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 the Company’s stock that he still owns and directed the Company to cancel any issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s stock still owned by Mr. Muller. Mr. Muller was also ordered to disgorge unlawful profits in the amount of $7.5 million and to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $100,000. Acting in accordance with the ruling and decision of the Court, the Company has canceled (i) 8,047,403 shares of common stock that had been held by Mr. Muller and/or his affiliates, (ii) options to acquire an additional 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s 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. After an appeal filed by Mr. Muller was dismissed the Judgment against him is considered final.

On February 8, 2007, Federal Magistrate Judge Maas issued a post-judgment order, at the Company’s request, which further concluded that all of the shares of the Company’s stock held by Mr. Muller or any of his nominees directly or indirectly owned or controlled were to be recaptured by the Company and were subject to disgorgement and forfeiture. The ruling provided that all shares, options and any other obligations allegedly owed by the Company to Mr. Muller were to be disgorged in our favor and confirmed the earlier judgment holding Mr. Muller liable for $7.5 million in actual damages, imposing a $100,000 fine and barring Mr. 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 $11 million. Additionally, the Court clarified that the order required the disgorgement of any shares of the Company’s stock that Mr. Muller or any of his nominees directly or indirectly owned or controlled. In furtherance of this order, the Company has taken action to cancel over 3.6 million shares which had been issued to offshore companies. The Order also confirmed the appropriateness of actions 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. On February 11, 2009, Judge Maas confirmed that his previous decision was modified and Save the World Air’s Motion for Summary Judgment was granted in favor of Save the World Air as set forth in his order of February 8, 2007. A proposed Final Judgment in favor of Save the World air is pending before the United States District Court, Southern District of New York

Patent Infringement Claims by Jeffrey A. Muller

In April 2005, Jeffrey A. Muller, the Company’s former sole director and executive officer, filed a complaint against the Company 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. Muller’s bankruptcy trustee declared null and void.

This lawsuit brought by Mr. Muller arose out of the same claims that were the subject of litigation in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, in which the Court entered judgment against Mr. Muller. Those claims are pending further proceedings. While the Company believes that the Company has 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 Company’s financial position or cash flow. Muller’s claims for patent infringement against Save The World Air were dismissed and the case was closed on October 15, 2008, by order of George B. Daniels, United States District Judge, Southern District of New York.

Litigation Involving Scottish Glen Golf Company

We were involved in litigation with Scottish Glen Golf Company, Inc. (SGGC) doing business as KZ Golf, Inc., the Company’s previous landlord on claims in the aggregate amount of $104,413. The Company did not dispute the fact that certain amounts of unpaid past rent are due but did dispute that it owes the aggregate of $104,413 demanded by SGGC; more than half of which are purported “late fees” which was assessed at the rate of $100 per day. It was the Company’s position that the late fees are void and unenforceable and that the Company is entitled to a set-off for office space that reverted back to SGGC.

On April 30, 2008 the Company and SGGC settled their pending litigation relating to the Company’s prior offices. The Company agreed to pay SGGC $51,000 in full settlement of SGGC’s claims. On May 28, 2008 the initial payment of $34,000 was made and on July 9, 2008 the final payment of $17,000 was made and the Complaint was dismissed, with prejudice. The Company recorded $52,069 as other income and as a reduction of accounts payable.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis of our condensed consolidated financial condition and condensed consolidated results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

We are a green technology company that leverages a suite of patented, patent-pending and licensed intellectual properties related to the treatment of fuels. Technologies patented by, or licensed to, us utilize either magnetic or uniform electrical fields to alter physical characteristics of fuels and are designed to create a cleaner combustion. Cleaner combustion has been shown to improve performance, enhance fuel economy and/or reduce harmful emissions in laboratory testing.

Our ECO ChargR™ and MAG ChargR™ products use fixed magnetic fields to alter some physical properties of fuel, by incorporating our patented and patent-pending ZEFS and MK IV technologies. We differentiate ECO ChargR and MAG ChargR products based on their differing attributes and marketing focus. ECO ChargR products are primarily designed to reduce harmful emissions and MAG ChargR products are primarily designed to enhance performance and fuel economy. Our ECO ChargR product is intended to reduce exhaust emissions in vehicle and small utility motors. ECO ChargR will be marketed primarily to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) as well as to pilot and government-mandated emissions programs. Our MAG ChargR product is intended to increase power and improve mileage. MAG ChargR will be marketed primarily to the specialty consumer accessories market for many types of vehicles, including but not limited to cars, trucks, motorcycles, scooters, all terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), snowmobiles, personal watercraft and small utility motors. Because our ECO ChargR and MAG ChargR products are customized to specific brands, models and engine sizes, these products ultimately will require individually developed parts, which can be expensive and time-consuming to produce. See “Our Technologies and Products” below.

Our first revenues have come from initial sales in Asia for our ECO ChargR product in the motorcycle industry. We plan on commencing sales of ECO ChargR to customers in the United States in the motorcycle industry in second quarter of 2009. We also plan on commencing initial sales of our MAG ChargR product in the United States in the automobile and motorcycle industry in the second quarter of 2009. See “Recent Developments” and “Sales and Marketing” below.

We have obtained a license from Temple University for their patent-pending uniform electric field technology, tentatively called ELEKTRA™. The ELEKTRA technology consists of passing fuel through a specific strong electrical field. Although ELEKTRA has a similar effect on fuels as our ZEFS and MK IV technologies, ELEKTRA incorporates a uniform electrical field principle. Based on our early research and product development, we believe that ELEKTRA carries certain advantages over our ZEFS and MK IV technologies, primarily not requiring as many variations for products incorporating the ELEKTRA technology compared to products incorporating the ZEFS or MK IV technologies. Preliminary testing conducted in Europe by an outside research and development facility indicates that ELEKTRA causes a significant change in some of the physical characteristics of the fuel, resulting in better atomization of the fuel and improved combustion.

We have also entered into a research and development agreement with Temple University to conduct further research on the ELEKTRA technology and magnetic technologies in general. Together with Temple University, we have developed prototype products using the ELEKTRA technology and we are continuing testing, and research and development. We are in the early stages of developing ELEKTRA products that, based on the previously mentioned preliminary testing, is intended to improve fuel economy and change fuel viscosity, and may improve performance and reduce emissions, depending upon the specific application. We are also working with Temple and several domestic and international corporations investigating applications of this technology to the transportation industry, oil refineries and pipelines, and OEMs. See “Our Technologies and Products” below.

We operate in a highly competitive industry. Many of our activities may be subject to governmental regulation. We have taken aggressive steps to protect our intellectual property.

There are significant risks associated with our business, our company and our stock.

We are a development stage company that generated its first initial revenues in the fourth quarter of 2006. Our expenses to date have been funded primarily through the sale of stock and convertible debt, as well as proceeds from the exercise of stock purchase warrants. We raised capital in 2008 and will need to raise substantial additional capital in 2009, and possibly beyond, to fund our sales and marketing efforts, continuing research and development, and certain other expenses, until our revenue base grows sufficiently.

Our company was incorporated on February 18, 1998, as a Nevada corporation, under the name Mandalay Capital Corporation. We changed our name to Save the World Air, Inc. on February 11, 1999, following the acquisition of marketing and manufacturing rights of the ZEFS technologies. Our mailing address is 235 Tennant Avenue, Morgan Hill, California 95037. Our telephone number is (408)-778-0101. Our corporate website is www.stwa.com.

Results of Operations

We did not generate any revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Operating expenses were $840,018 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, compared to $760,142 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $79,876. This increase is attributable to an increase in cash expenses of $204,568 offset by a decrease in non-cash expenses of $124,692. The increase in cash expense is attributable to increases in consulting and professional fees ($138,635), salaries and benefits ($46,039), office and other expenses ($16,989) and corporate and travel expenses ($2,905). The decrease in non-cash expenses is attributable to decreases in the fair value of common stocks issued for legal and consulting fees ($121,872) and depreciation and bad debt expense ($3,251), offset by an increase in fair value of options issued to an officer ($431).

Research and development expenses were $246,840 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, compared to $259,670 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of $12,830. This decrease is attributable a decrease contract fees ($44,750) offset by an increase in testing tools and supplies ($31,920).

Other expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 were $464,560, compared to $1,264,035 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of $799,475. This decrease is attributable to decreases in non-cash interest expense ($790,346) and loss on sale of equipment ($9,683), offset by an increase in other income ($554).

We had a net loss of $1,552,218, or $0.02 per share, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, compared to a net loss of $2,283,847, or $0.05 per share, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. We expect to incur additional net loss in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, primarily attributable to continued operating and marketing-related expenditures without the benefit of any significant revenue for the remainder of the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We have incurred negative cash flow from operations in the developmental stage since our inception in 1998. As of March 31, 2009, we have been funded primarily through the sale of convertible notes and issuance of our stock upon exercise of warrants.

The condensed consolidated financial statements accompanying this Quarterly Report have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $1,552,218 and a negative cash flow from operations of $489,701 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and a stockholders’ deficiency of $3,213,572 as of March 31, 2009. 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, generate revenue 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.

Our current liabilities greatly exceed our assets and we are unable to meet our obligations as they become due. We face significant challenges in generating revenue and maintaining adequate working capital during the remainder of 2008 as a result of several factors. Among other things, to date our distributors, primarily located in Asia, have placed fewer orders than we had expected under the terms of our distribution agreements. This resulted in our having less revenue and therefore less working capital available for the further development of our business at a time when the operating costs of our business have been increasing. We will require significant additional outside capital during 2009 in order to meet all of our obligations, produce products for sale and ship such products.

In order to fund our capital needs for the foreseeable future, including the operations of our business, and the repayment of our outstanding Convertible Notes, we must raise substantial additional funds. In addition, we will require additional funds in connection with the license and research and development agreements with Temple University, costs associated with product development and commercialization of the ELEKTRA technology, costs to manufacture and ship our products, costs to design and implement an effective system of internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures, costs of maintaining our status as a public company by filing periodic reports with the SEC, and costs required to protect our intellectual property. We also have substantial contractual commitments, including without limitation salaries to our executive officers pursuant to employment agreements, certain severance payments to former officers and consulting fees, during the remainder of 2009 and beyond.

In light of the Company’s financial commitments over the next several months and its liquidity constraints, have implemented cost reduction measures in all areas of operations, including but not limited to personnel lay-offs and/or reductions in work, reductions in marketing and advertising, deferral of placing orders to manufacturers of our ECO ChargR and MAG ChargR products for sale to our existing distributors, reductions in research and development and product development of ELEKTRA products, and reductions of certain other expenses. We intend to review these measures on an ongoing basis and make additional decisions as may be required

Therefore, in addition to the recently-completed 2009 Winter Offering #2, we are actively pursuing additional financing alternatives, but no commitments have been received and, accordingly, no assurance can be given that any financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us..

License agreements with Temple University

In 2007, we entered into three License Agreements with Temple University covering Temple University’s current patent applications concerning certain electric field effects on gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel particle size distribution, and concerning electric field effects on crude oil and edible oil viscosity. Initially, the License Agreements are exclusive and the territory licensed to the us is worldwide. Pursuant to the License Agreements, we agreed to pay Temple University license fees in the aggregate amount of $300,000 as follows: $50,000 was due November 1, 2006, $100,000 was due on March 2, 2007, $75, 000 was due February 2, 2008 and $75,000 was due on February 2, 2009. Annual maintenance fees of $25,000 for the first license were due on November 1, 2007 and November 1, 2008. Annual maintenance payments of $125,000 for two of the licenses were due January 1, 2008. In addition, each License Agreement provides that we will pay royalties to Temple University on net sales of products incorporating such licensed technology.

We have also entered into a research and development agreement (R&D Agreement) with Temple University to conduct further research on the ELEKTRA technology. Under the R&D Agreement Temple University will conduct a 24-month research project towards expanding the scope of, and developing products utilizing, the technologies covered under the License Agreements. Pursuant to the R&D Agreement, we will make payments to Temple University in the aggregate amount of $500,000.

At December 31, 2008, we were in default in the amount of $716,500 under the License Agreements, maintenance fees, R & D Agreement and related penalties. On January 9, 2009, we entered into a Letter Agreement with Temple University wherein Temple University granted to us an extension of time to cure the above-referenced breaches until March 31, 2009. The Letter Agreement provides for payments of $100,000 on January 31, 2009, $100,000 on February 28, 2009 and $100,000 on March 31, 2009. We made the January 31, 2009 payment but did not make the payment due on February 28, 2009. On March 26, 2009, we received a written extension for both the February 28, 2009 payment and the March 31, 2009 payment until April 30, 2009. All additional amounts past due as of November 10, 2008 were to be re-negotiated on or before March 31, 2009, however, this has now been extended to April 30, 2009.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated results that we report in our financial statements. The SEC considers an entity’s most critical accounting policies to be those policies that are both most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations and those that require management’s 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.. For a more detailed discussion of the accounting policies of the Company, see Note 2 of Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, require significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated 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 expenses during the reporting period. Certain significant estimates were made in connection with preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements as described in Note 1 to Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates

Revenue Recognition

We have adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, “Revenue Recognition” and therefore recognize revenue based upon meeting four criteria:

●	Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

●	Delivery has occurred or services rendered;

●	The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

●	Collectability is reasonably assured.

We contract with manufactures of fixed magnetic field products and sell them to various original equipment manufacturers in the motor vehicle and small utility motor markets. We negotiate an initial contract with the customer fixing the terms of the sale and then receives a letter of credit or full payment in advance of shipment. Upon shipment, we recognize the revenue associated with the sale of the products to the customer.

Long-lived assets

We account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets to be held are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances that indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. We periodically review the carrying values of long-lived assets to determine whether or not impairment to such value has occurred. No impairments were recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2008. We recorded an impairment of approximately $505,000 during the period from inception (February 18, 1998) through March 31, 2009.

Stock-Based Compensation

We periodically issue stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in capital raising transactions, for services and for financing costs. We adopted SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006, and are using the modified prospective method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with 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” and EITF No. 00-18 “Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees” whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

The Company is a smaller reporting company and is not required to provide the information required by this.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

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 Report on Form 10-Q. 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(b) 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.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transaction and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitation, internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as required in Rule 13a-15(b). In December 2006 our Controller retired and in January 2007 our Chief Financial Officer retired, although our former Controller still provides certain financial consulting services for us. We have hired an Interim Chief Financial Officer and a full-time Controller. We have retained a consulting firm and are conducting an evaluation to design and implement adequate systems of accounting and financial statement disclosure controls. We expect to complete this review during 2009 to comply with the requirements of the SEC. We believe that the ultimate success of our plan to improve our internal control over financial reporting will require a combination of additional financial resources, outside consulting services, legal advice, additional personnel, further reallocation of responsibility among various persons, and substantial additional training of those of our officers, personnel and others, including certain of our directors such as our Chairman of the Board and committee chairs, who are charged with implementing and/or carrying out our plan. It should also be noted that the design of any system of controls and procedures 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.

Our annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting and management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only Management’s report in this annual report.

Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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 the Company, the Company’s 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 the Company’s 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 Company 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.

In the course of the litigation, the Company has obtained ownership control over all patent rights to the ZEFS device.

Patent Infringement Claims by Jeffrey A. Muller

Litigation Involving Scottish Glen Golf Company

We were involved in litigation with Scottish Glen Golf Company, Inc. (SGGC) doing business as KZ Golf, Inc., our previous landlord on claims in the aggregate amount of $104,413. We did not dispute the fact that certain amounts of unpaid past rent are due but did dispute that we owe the aggregate of $104,413 demanded by SGGC; more than half of which are purported “late fees” which was assessed at the rate of $100 per day. It was the our position that the late fees are void and unenforceable and that the we are entitled to a set-off for office space that reverted back to SGGC.

On April 30, 2008 we and SGGC settled our pending litigation relating to our prior offices. We agreed to pay SGGC $51,000 in full settlement of SGGC’s claims. On May 28, 2008 the initial payment of $34,000 was made and on July 9, 2008 the final payment of $17,000 was made and the Complaint was dismissed, with prejudice. We recorded $52,069 as other income and as a reduction of accounts payable.
