PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Corporate History

3DIcon Corporation ("the Company") was incorporated on August 11, 1995, under the laws of the State of Oklahoma as First Keating Corporation. Our articles of incorporation were amended August 1, 2003 to change the name to 3DIcon Corporation. The initial focus of First Keating Corporation was to market and distribute books written by its founder, Martin Keating. During 2001, First Keating Corporation began to focus on the development of 360-degree holographic technology. The effective date of this transition is January 1, 2001. We have accounted for this transition as reorganization and accordingly, restated its capital accounts as of January 1, 2001. At the inception on January 1, 2001, our primary activity was the raising of capital in order to pursue its goal of becoming a significant participant in the formation and commercialization of interactive, optical holography for the communications and entertainment industries.

In April 2004, we engaged the University of Oklahoma ("OU" or the "University") to conduct a pilot study to determine the opportunity and feasibility for the creation of volumetric three dimensional display systems.

On July 15, 2005, we entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement ("SRA") with the University ("Phase II"), which expired on January 14, 2007. Under this agreement, the University conducted a research project entitled "Investigation of 3-Dimensional Display Technologies".

On February 23, 2007, we entered into an SRA with the University ("Phase III"), which SRA expired on March 31, 2010. Under this agreement, the University conducted a research project entitled "3-Dimensional Display Development".

In the fourth quarter of 2007 we announced the release of our first product, "Pixel Precision". On February 12, 2009, version 2.0 of Pixel Precision was released to expand its capabilities and provide new compatibility with Texas Instrument's newly released DLP® Discovery 4000 kits.  This is a companion software application to the DMD Discovery ™ line of products manufactured by Texas Instruments®.

The Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology ("OCAST") approved our application for funding of a matching grant titled 800 Million Voxels Volumetric Display, on November 19, 2008.  The two-year matching grant, totaling $299,932, had a start date of January 1, 2009.  The award was for a maximum of $149,940 for 2009 and 2010.  We requested a no cost extension for the first year.  OCAST approved our request and extended our first year contract to August 31, 2010.  In addition, the Company was approved for a second year no cost modification, extending the second year to February 28, 2012.

General Overview

We are a development stage company. Our mission is to pursue, develop and market full-color volumetric 3-D technology. Through a Sponsored Research Agreement with the University of Oklahoma, we have obtained the exclusive worldwide marketing rights to certain 3D display technologies under development by the University. The development to date has resulted in the University filing seven provisional patents; six of the seven provisional patents have been combined and converted to four utility patents. On May 26, 2009, the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") approved the pending patent called "Volumetric Liquid Crystal Display" for rendering a three-dimensional image and converted it to US patent No. 7,537,345. On December 28, 2010, USPTO approved the pending patent called “Light Surface Display for Rendering a Three-Dimensional Image,” and issued the United States Patent No. 7,858,913.  This patent describes what we are calling our CSpace®™ technology (“CSpace”). At this time, we do not own any intellectual property rights in these technologies, and, apart from the Sponsored Research Agreement with the University, have no contracts or agreements pending to acquire such rights or any other interest in such rights. We plan to market the technology and the intellectual property developed by the University and our staff by targeting various industries, such as retail, manufacturing, entertainment, medical, healthcare, transportation, homeland security and the military. On April 6, 2009, we filed a provisional patent on an emissive two-dimensional (“2D”) screen that is controlled and driven by a standard digital light projector or other optical input source. This provisional patent is called "Flexible/Inflexible Front/Back Projection screen or display" and owned solely by 3DIcon Corporation.   Through the current agreement with the University of Oklahoma, OU filed a continuation patent application on November 19, 2010, called “3D Light Surface Display”.  This application provides additional protections of our CSpace®™ technology.

Overview of Development of 3D Technology

Pursuant to the Sponsored Research Agreement, a portfolio of 3D Display Technologies is being developed in using the following approaches:

The Swept Volume Display is designed to be a 3D display system showing a volumetric image generated from an electronic medium. A proof-of-concept demonstration was achieved by the researchers around September 2007. The Swept Volume Display R&D entered into the subsequent second stage of improvement and development in 2008. Additional work on this particular approach has been deferred indefinitely because of the success and initial superiority of the CSpace®™ technology.

Our implementation of a Static Volume Display (CSpace®™) employs one or more Digital Micro-Mirror Devices (DMDs) and infra-red lasers to produce 3D images in advanced transparent nanotechnology materials, thereby enabling the creation, transmission and display of high resolution 3D images within a volume space, surrounded by glass or transparent screen. The initial investigation for the Static Volume system commenced in 2007. On September 2008, we built a laboratory prototype Static Volume Display using the CSpace®™ technology and demonstrated the creation of true 3D images within a specified image space. New developments for eliminating the distortion occurred by the divergence of the constructed 3D image have been presented at the SPIE Europe Security & Defense conference in Berlin, Germany in August 2009. Improvements for the optical systems utilized by CSpace®™ with the latest achieved resolution were published on October 2009 in IEEE/OSA Journal of Display Technology titled "Static Volumetric Three-Dimensional Display". On February 15, 2010, at the SPIE Medical Imaging conference, we presented the latest software developments that allow reading Digital Imaging and Communication In Medicine ("DICOM") formats whether scanned by ultrasound devices, magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI"), or computed tomography ("CT") scanners. With this new software architecture, Static Volume 3D displays based on the CSpace®™ technology would have the capability of displaying medical images.

On April 14, 2010, at the OSA Digital Holography and Three-Dimensional Imaging conference in Miami, FL, we presented an increase in brightness of the constructed 3D images.  On September 23, 2010, at the SPIE Europe Security & Defense conference in Toulouse, France, we presented new implementations to reduce flicker of the 3D Images constructed by CSpace®™ display.  In November 2010, we published a new method of rendering 3D Images using a rotational-slicing technique at the Journal of the Society for Information Display. In December 2010, we published the utilization of new materials for CSpace®™ image space at the Journal of the Society for Information Display. In April 2011, New Developments That Allow CSpace®™ To Perfectly Fit Applications Such As Air Traffic Control was published in the IEEE/OSA Journal of Display Technology.

University of Oklahoma - Sponsored Research Agreement

On April 20, 2004, we entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement entitled "Investigation of Emerging Digital Holography Technologies" ("Phase I") with the University, which expired October 19, 2004. We paid the University $14,116 pursuant to this agreement. The purpose of this agreement was to conduct a pilot study to investigate digital holography as a candidate technology for the development of three-dimensional ("3D") imaging and visualization systems. The purpose of the pilot study was to investigate the current state-of-the-art research and development activities taking place in the field of digital holography, particularly emerging technologies. The scope of work for the study encompassed the following tasks:

On July 15, 2005, we entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement with the University, which expired on January 14, 2007. Under this agreement, the University conducted a research project entitled "Investigation of 3-Dimensional Display Technologies" and the Company agreed to pay the University $453,584 at various dates from November 10, 2005 through July 15, 2006 to cover the costs of the research. The goals for this research were as follows:

The final payment of $226,792, due on July 15, 2006, was not paid. On November 1, 2006 the Sponsored Research Agreement was modified to provide $125,259 additional funding, extend the term of the agreement through March 31, 2007, and revise the payment schedule to combine the July 15, 2006 remaining balance due of $226,792 with the additional funding into a revised payment schedule. Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to pay the combined remaining obligation of $352,051 in four equal monthly installments of $88,013 beginning on December 31, 2006 through March 31, 2007.

On February 23, 2007, we entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement with the University of Oklahoma ("Phase III"), which expired on March 31, 2010. Under this agreement, the University conducted a research project entitled "3-Dimensional Display Development". We agreed to pay the University $3,468,595 in monthly installments ranging from $92,263 to $112,777 beginning on April 30, 2007 and ending on March 31, 2010.

On October 31, 2008, OU agreed to revise the payment terms under the SRA from a fixed monthly payment to a reimbursable cost payment basis effective September 1, 2008. As of September 30, 2008 we had a remaining obligation under the previous SRA payment schedule of $2,665,818, which included monthly payments due for December 2007 through August 31, 2008 totaling $861,131. The $1,804,687 balance of the remaining scheduled payment obligation was cancelled by OU. Under the terms of the revised base payments schedule, the arrearages would be paid in nine monthly base installments from October 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 of amounts ranging from $35,000 to $101,132 leaving a remaining balance after the base payments of $290,000. In addition to the monthly base payments, we agreed to make additional payments on the $861,131 arrearages based on a formula of 50% of funding in excess of $120,000 plus the base monthly payment. In the event funding did not provide for any additional payments, the remaining balance would be $290,000, which OU agreed to accept 4,264,707 shares of our common stock based on the October 14, 2008 market price as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board of $0.068 per share as payment on June 30, 2009. We had the option to repurchase the shares at $0.068 per share by September 30, 2009 or at market value, but not less than $0.068 per share, if the repurchase occurred after September 30, 2009.

On May 18, 2009, the University agreed to revise the payment terms. Under the terms of the revised base payments schedule, the arrearages scheduled to be paid in nine monthly base installments from October 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 of amounts ranging from $35,000 to $101,132 were deferred to a monthly payment schedule of July 2009 through February 2010.

On February 19, 2010, OU agreed to modify the repayment plan to retire the remaining arrearages outstanding of $525,481. Under the terms of the modified repayment plan the Company agreed to make payments to the University, not less than quarterly, in an amount equal to 22.5% of any funding received by the Company. The first quarterly payment was due to the University on April 30, 2010. These repayment terms were to remain in effect until the outstanding debt was retired.

On December 1, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") with OU pursuant to which OU agreed to convert all sums due to it from the Company in connection with its SRA with the Company, which as of December 1, 2010 amounted to approximately $485,000, into an aggregate of 59,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares"). As a result of the debt conversion, OU became the holder of approximately 8% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Shares are subject to a put option allowing OU to require the Company to purchase certain of the Shares upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, the Shares are subject to a call option allowing the Company to require OU to sell to the Company the Shares then held by OU in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

The Agreement also amended the existing agreements between the Company and OU such that all intellectual property, including all inventions and or discoveries, patentable or un-patentable, developed before July 28, 2008 by OU under the SRA is owned by OU. All intellectual property, including all inventions and/or discoveries, patentable or un-patentable, developed jointly by the Company and OU at any time is jointly owned by the Company and OU. Finally, all intellectual property developed by the Company after July 28, 2008, including all inventions and or discoveries, patentable or un-patentable, is owned by the Company.   

During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company charged operations $37,363 and $43,884, respectively, pursuant to the SRA. At December 31, 2011, the Company owed the University $7,686 in direct costs.

We own all worldwide rights to commercial and government usage of the intellectual property being developed by the University. The University has applied for the following patents with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office:

Marketing and Product Development

We produced our first product "Pixel Precision" in 2007. The product has been made commercially available through a sales and distribution arrangement with Digital Light Innovations that was signed March 6, 2008. This product is a result of our research efforts involving the use of the Texas Instruments Digital Micro-Mirror Device. The product is targeted at the application development market involving the use of DMDs, specifically the DMD-Discovery™ line from Texas Instruments™.

We do not have any commercial products, services or technologies in the area of Three Dimensional Displays as yet. We envision the sale of products developed or jointly developed with partners in various industry verticals, the sub-licensing of University-owned technology, or a combination thereof.

We have identified the following potential markets and uses for the technology being developed by the Company:

Competition

There are a number of different technologies that are at different stages of research and development to enable the display of 3D images. The following is a summary of volumetric or rear projection 3D display research or product development activities of which we are currently aware:

Employees

We had three full-time employees as of December 31, 2011, Sidney Aroesty, Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Hakki Refai, Chief Technology Officer, and Ms. Judith Keating, Company Secretary and Director of Investor Relations. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider relations with our employees to be good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risks Relating to Our Business:

We have a limited operating history, as well as a history of operating losses.

We have a limited operating history. We cannot assure you that we can achieve revenue or sustain revenue growth or profitability in the future. We have a cumulative net loss of $16,421,120 for the period from inception (January 1, 2001) to December 31, 2011. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a business enterprise. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently encountered in establishing a new business and marketing and developing products. These include, but are not limited to, competition, the need to develop customers and market expertise, market conditions, sales, marketing and governmental regulation. Our failure to meet any of these conditions would have a materially adverse effect upon us and may force us to reduce or curtail our operations. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have an adverse impact on our business.

Currently, our only significant assets are our Sponsored Research Agreement with the University and the exclusive license agreement covering the technology on which the University and the Company are working. Our ability to accomplish our business plan relies entirely on our ability to successfully develop marketable 3D display technology.

Our only significant assets at the present time are our Sponsored Research Agreement with the University and the exclusive license agreement covering the technology on which the University and the Company are currently working. In October 2008, Dr. Hakki Refai, the former chief researcher at the University joined the Company as our Chief Technology Officer. Any technology independently developed by the Company subsequent to October 2008, will be the sole property of 3DIcon. If we or the University researchers are not successful in developing 3D display technology that we have envisioned in our business plan, our ability to generate revenues from marketing of the product or technologies on which our business plan is based will be severely impacted, which could threaten the very existence of the Company.

Even if we or the University researchers are successful in developing 3D display technology, because of the revolutionary nature of such technology (i.e., no similar technology currently exists, and there are numerous unknowns relating to the technology, such as manufacturing costs and operational costs), there can be no assurance that our marketing plans for the technology will be successful.

Therefore, the fact that our success depends significantly on our efforts to develop a technologically challenging new product that will be in a form readily marketable and acceptable to a given market, and our ability to then successfully market such technology, makes an investment in the Company much more risky than a comparable investment in other companies that may have a broad range of existing, proven products.

We may not be able to compete successfully.

Although the volumetric 3D imaging and display technology that we are attempting to develop is new, and although at present we are aware of only a limited number of companies that have publicly disclosed their attempts to develop similar technology, we anticipate a number of companies are or will attempt to develop technologies/products that compete or will compete with our technologies. Further, even if we are the first to market with a technology of this type, and even if the technology is protected by patents or otherwise, because of the vast market and communications potential of such a product, we anticipate the market will be flooded by a variety of competitors (including traditional display companies), many of which will offer a range of products in areas other than those in which we compete, which may make such competitors more attractive to prospective customers. In addition, many if not all of our competitors and potential competitors will initially be larger and have greater financial resources than we do. Some of the companies with which we may now be in competition, or with which we may compete in the future, have or may have more extensive research, marketing and manufacturing capabilities and significantly greater technical and personnel resources than we do, even given our relationship to the University, and may be better positioned to continue to improve their technology in order to compete in an evolving industry. Further, technology in this industry may evolve rapidly once an initially successful product is introduced, making timely product innovations and use of new technologies essential to our success in the marketplace. The introduction by our competitors of products with improved technologies or features may render any product we initially market obsolete and unmarketable. If we or our partners are not able to deliver to market products that respond to industry changes in a timely manner, or if our products do not perform well, our business and financial condition will be adversely affected.

The technologies being developed may not gain market acceptance.

The products that we are currently developing utilize new technologies. As with any new technologies, in order for us to be successful, these technologies must gain market acceptance. Since the technologies that we anticipate introducing to the marketplace will exploit or encroach upon markets that presently utilize or are serviced by products from competing technologies, meaningful commercial markets may not develop for our technologies.

In addition, the development efforts of 3DIcon and the University on the 3D technology are subject to unanticipated delays, expenses or technical or other problems, as well as the possible insufficiency of funding to complete development. Our success will depend upon the ultimate products and technologies meeting acceptable cost and performance criteria, and upon their timely introduction into the marketplace. The proposed products and technologies may never be successfully developed, and even if developed, they may not satisfactorily perform the functions for which they are designed. Additionally, these may not meet applicable price or performance objectives. Unanticipated technical or other problems may occur which would result in increased costs or material delays in their development or commercialization.

If we are unable to successfully retain existing management and recruit qualified personnel having experience in our business, we may not be able to continue our operations.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of our Board of Directors, management officers and our Chief Technology Officer.  Our success also depends on our ability to attract and retain other key executive officers.

Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors will lose their entire investment.

In their report dated March 30, 2012, our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These concerns arise from the fact that we are a development stage organization with insufficient revenues to fund development and operating expenses. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, you could lose your entire investment in us.

We will need significant additional capital, which we may be unable to obtain.

Our capital requirements in connection with our development activities and transition to commercial operations have been and will continue to be significant. We will require approximately $2.5 million additional funds over the next two years to continue research, development and testing of our technologies, to obtain intellectual property protection relating to our technologies when appropriate, and to improve and market our technologies. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Risks Relating to Our Current Financing Arrangements:

There are a large number of shares underlying our convertible debentures, and warrants that may be available for future sale and the sale of these shares may depress the market price of our common stock.

As of March 19, 2012, we had 1,247,220,696 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and convertible debentures outstanding that may be converted into an estimated 937,768,014 shares of common stock at current market prices. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding convertible debentures may increase if the market price of our stock declines. We also have outstanding warrants issued to Golden State Equity Investors, Inc. f/k/a Golden Gate Investors ("Golden State") to purchase 816,560 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.90. The sale of the shares underlying the convertible debentures and warrants may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our obligation to issue shares upon conversion of our convertible debentures is essentially limitless.

The conversion price of our convertible debentures is continuously adjustable, which could require us to issue a substantially greater number of shares, which will cause dilution to our existing stockholders.  

The following is an example of the amount of shares of our common stock that are issuable, upon conversion of our 4.75% $100,000 convertible debenture (excluding accrued interest) issued to Golden State on November 3, 2006, based on the remaining principal balance of $81,656 and market prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price as of March 12, 2012 of $0.012.

(1) Shares issuable exclude 816,560 shares underlying the remaining warrants exercisable at $10.90 per share.

The following is an example of the amount of shares of our common stock that are issuable, upon conversion of the $1.25 million convertible debenture issued to Golden State on January 15, 2008 (the "Second Debenture") (excluding accrued interest), based on the principal balance of $31,788 and market prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price as of March 12 2012 of $0.012.

As illustrated, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our convertible debentures will increase if the market price of our stock declines, which will cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

The continuously adjustable conversion price feature of our convertible debentures may encourage investors to make short sales in our common stock, which could have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock.

So long as the market price of our stock is below $4.00, the issuance of shares in connection with the conversion of the $100,000 convertible debenture results in the issuance of shares at an effective 20% discount to the trading price of the common stock prior to the conversion. So long as the market price of our stock is below $2.00 the issuance of shares in connection with the conversion of the Second Debenture results in the issuance of shares at an effective 10% discount to the trading price of the common stock prior to the conversion. The significant downward pressure on the price of the common stock as the selling stockholder converts and sells material amounts of common stock could encourage short sales by investors. This could place further downward pressure on the price of the common stock. The selling stockholder could sell common stock into the market in anticipation of covering the short sale by converting their securities, which could cause the further downward pressure on the stock price. In addition, not only the sale of shares issued upon conversion or exercise of debentures and warrants, but also the mere perception that these sales could occur, may adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

The issuance of shares upon conversion of the convertible debentures and exercise of outstanding warrants may cause immediate and substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.

The issuance of shares upon conversion of our convertible debentures and exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the selling stockholder may ultimately convert and sell the full amount issuable on conversion. Although Golden State may not convert its convertible debentures and/or exercise their warrants if such conversion or exercise would cause it to own more than 9.9% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent the selling stockholder from converting and selling some of their holdings and then converting the rest of their holdings. In this way, assuming the market price remains at a level acceptable to the selling stockholder, the selling stockholder could continue on a "conversion-sell-conversion" trend while never holding more than 9.9% of our common stock. Further, under the convertible debentures there is theoretically no upper limit on the number of shares that may be issued, which will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock.

If we are unable to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the convertible debenture as a result of our inability to increase our authorized shares of common stock or as a result of any other reason, we are required to pay penalties to Golden State, redeem the convertible debenture at 130% and/or compensate Golden State for any buy-in that it is required to make.

If we are unable to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the convertible debenture as a result of our inability to increase our authorized shares of common stock or as a result of any other reason, we are required to:

In the event that we are required to pay penalties to Golden State or redeem the convertible debentures held by Golden State, we may be required to curtail or cease our operations.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock:

Fluctuations in our operating results and announcements and developments concerning our business affect our stock price.

Our quarterly operating results, the number of stockholders desiring to sell their shares, changes in general economic conditions and the financial markets, the execution of new contracts and the completion of existing agreements and other developments affecting us, could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

Our common stock is subject to the "Penny Stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Forward –Looking Statements

The information in this annual report contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in this annual report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management's expectations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.

Plan of Operation

Background:

The Company initially engaged in the development of 360° volumetric imaging and display technology, specifically in the areas identified by the initial in-depth investigation conducted by the University. The identified areas are two major complementary areas of technology that comprise the spectrum of the solution and application (1) a means of recording 3D objects as digital holographic data elements (capture); and (2) a means of reconstructing and displaying the 3D images (display).

Based on the investigation as well as review of existing patents and technologies, it was concluded that the area of 3D image capture and recording had multiple solutions and technologies that adequately served the market. As a result, our focus narrowed to developing 3D display technologies, intellectual property protecting those technologies and products that incorporate those technologies. We also plan to 1) establish strategic partnerships with the owners or licensees of certain existing 3D recording technologies and 2) as appropriate integrate our technologies and/or products into existing industry specific system level products.

The 3D display technologies surveyed to date can be divided into two broad categories based on usage paradigm and implementation. The first category is flat panel-based 3D displays that includes current stereoscopic (glasses required) 3D TVs and emerging auto-stereoscopic (glasses-free) displays that are currently very expensive and low quality. The second category is 3D volumetric displays that afford users a 360-degree view unlike the flat panel displays in the first category. Our CSpace technology is in this second category and is a better fit and more advantaged for certain applications mentioned earlier. Volumetric 3D displays appear to offer many opportunities for further technology development and intellectual property creation by our staff and the University to which 3DIcon would have exclusive rights.

The research team at OU has been working to integrate open source image capture applications as well as to establish 3D image capture systems.

We continue to build intellectual property through our staff and the University, to which the Company has exclusive rights and engage in research and development in the area of 3D displays as well as certain related technologies.

The Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology approved the Company's application for funding of a matching grant titled "800 Million Voxels Volumetric Display," on November 19, 2008. The two-year matching grant, totaling $299,932, has a start date of January 1, 2009. We received approval for a no cost modification request, which extended the first year of the contract to August 31, 2010. In addition, the Company received approval for a second year no cost modification request, which extended the second year of the contract to February 28, 2012. In connection with the grant, the Company received (i) $35,139 during 2009; (ii) $96,362 during 2010; (iii) $86,323 during 2011; and $217,824 from inception to date.

Current Activities and Operations

The Company is developing the CSpace 3D volumetric display technology and plans to develop a Trade-Show Prototype (“TSP”), after the successful development of a 2nd generation proof-of-concept (laboratory prototype 2) through the Sponsored Research Agreement (the “SPA”) with the University of Oklahoma.  As currently envisioned, the TSP will be a single-color CSpace display featuring an 8”x8”x4” liquid image volume enclosed in a 15” glass dome, continuously viewable over 360’ and from the top in moderately-bright room lighting (satisfying the requirements of ISO 9241-303) without operational safety controls (e.g., goggles or stand-off barrier). The Company recently completed a technical evaluation of the CSpace 3D volumetric display technology and the TSP by outside technical experts including Dr. George Melnik, now a Senior Technical Advisor with the Company. These experts validated the viability of the CSpace technology and the technical feasibility of the TSP. Under Dr. Melnik’s direction, the Company is developing a second higher performance laboratory prototype that will further prove and de-risk the CSpace technology as well as pave the way for more rapid development of the TSP.

On June 13, 2011, the Company hired CEO Sidney Aroesty, with leadership and experience in building successful public companies, to evaluate the capabilities of the Company and to field the most capable management team to develop the TSP.   As part of this process, Dr. Brian Hoover, CEO of AOT, was retained from February through December 2011 as 3DIcon’s VP of Technology Development, to plan the technologies and other resources for the initial development and commercialization of CSpace.  As part of that effort, the Company engaged a team of consultants including an optical engineer, a system engineer, computer graphics specialists, and a mechanical engineer to develop a proposed TSP architecture, conduct computer-based modeling and simulation, design and construct a physical laser and materials test-bed at the OU Tulsa laboratory, develop an online program-management system, identify required resources, and help define potential commercialization paths.

On March 19, 2012 the Company announced that Sidney Aroesty would join the Board of Directors and appointed display industry veteran Mark Willner as CEO. Mr. Willner has 30 years of product development, product commercialization, sales, entrepreneurial, and executive experience in the display industry. 

Working closely with Mr. Willner and the Company’s Chief Technical Officer (CTO), Dr. Hakki Refai, will be Dr. George Melnik, 3DIcon’s new Senior Technical Advisor.  Dr. Melnik has had a long career in display technology commercialization, including positions at General Electric where he played a key role in the pioneering of active matrix displays (now used in everything from mobile phones to televisions) and at Phillips Electronics, where he was the technical lead in the development of the first scrolling color rear projection television system.

Progress on Research and Development Activities

The research team at OU filed two new patent applications in the first quarter of 2008 and converted one from a provisional to a utility filing.

Under the aegis of the SRA, the University has filed the following patent applications. The utility patents have been converted and consolidated from the previously filed provisional applications.

Further, we are taking steps to explore areas that may be related to assist in the protection of intellectual property assets. In addition, we have begun the process of applying for trademarks related to our 3D technologies.

The primary technical objective for 2012 is to develop higher performance next generation prototypes (laboratory and tradeshow) of the CSpace single-color display that will de-risk and further validate the CSpace technology. The work will primarily be done by the Company, professional consultants, and potential strategic partners:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010

Revenue

The Company received $86,323 and $96,362 from the OCAST grant during 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We have launched our first software product Pixel Precision™. We appointed Digital Light Innovations for the sales and distribution of this product in March 2008.

We have earned income of $3,000 and $9,697 before commissions and costs from the sales of Pixel Precision™ for the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

We expect sales of Pixel Precision™ to the installed and active user base of the earlier D1100 and D3000 systems in the near term and as companion product sales to D4000 systems. We expect that the revenue from this product to contribute to the operating expenses (general and administrative, research and development, interest) but do not expect the revenue generated in 2012 to cover the operating expenses.

Research and Development Expenses

The research and development expenses were $942,240 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $469,408 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was a result of engaging outside research and development consultants.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses were $1,430,365 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $1,084,419 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase is due primarily to contracting with Mr. Aroesty, the new CEO, the new interim CFO and 10,000,000 (ten million) shares issued to Concordia Financial Group as additional compensation under the terms of the Independent Consulting Agreement.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $37,187 as compared to $75,969 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in interest expense resulted from the decrease of the amounts outstanding under the convertible debentures and promissory notes.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management remains focused on controlling cash expenses. We recognize our limited cash resources and plan our expenses accordingly. We intend to leverage stock-for-services wherever possible. The operating budget consists of the following expenses:

Our independent registered public accountants, in their audit report accompanying our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our status as a development stage organization with insufficient revenues to fund development and operating expenses.

We had net cash of $17,666 at December 31, 2011.

We had negative working capital of $659,560 at December 31, 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we used $1,118,437 of cash for operating activities, an increase of $607,302 or 119% compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was a result of the increased loss from operations during 2011.

Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 was $998 a decrease of $2,252 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.  The decrease was a result of the decrease in the amount of office equipment purchased in 2011.

Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 was $770,000 a decrease of $110,368 or 13% compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.  The decrease was the result of an increase in funding under the terms of the convertible debentures from Golden State in 2011 and a decrease of in the amount of promissory notes issued from 2010.

We expect to fund the ongoing operations through the existing financing in place (see below); through raising additional funds as permitted by the terms of Golden State financing as well as reducing our monthly expenses.

Our ability to fund the operations of the Company is highly dependent on the underlying stock price of the Company.

Pursuant to the 6.25% Convertible Debenture now due in 2014, on November 21, 2007, the Company issued and sold a convertible note in the principal amount of $1,250,000 (the “Debenture”) to Golden State Equity Investors, Inc. f/k/a Golden Gate Investors (“Golden Gate”). Pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, Golden State may, at its election, convert all or a part of the Debenture into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate equal to the lesser of (i) $2.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the five lowest volume weighted average prices during the twenty trading days prior to Golden State's election to convert, subject to adjustment as provided in the Debenture. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion or redemption of the Debenture. The Company filed a registration statement covering the shares to be issued upon conversion of the Debenture. Included in the registration statement were 4.25 million shares issuable on the Debenture based on 2007 market prices and assuming full conversion of the convertible debenture. The registration statement became effective on January 4, 2008.

Golden State advanced $125,000 on the $1.25 million Debenture on November 9, 2007 and $746,213 in January 2008 at which time the Company placed 7,961,783 shares of common stock in escrow to be released as debentures are converted. As of September 30, 2011, Golden State has funded an aggregate of $871,213 on the Debenture. Golden State will be obligated to fund the Company for the remaining $378,787 in principal on the Debenture upon the effectiveness of a registration statement underlying the remaining unfunded principal balance on the Debenture. At this time, the Company has not filed a registration statement. At various dates during 2009, $115,043, of the Debenture was converted into 12,124,828 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.007 to $0.01 based on the formula in the convertible debenture. At various dates during 2010, $274,438 of the Debenture was converted into 93,196,578 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.0027 to $0.004 based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Shares totaling 6,093,396 were issued in payment of $17,062 of accrued interest during 2010. At various dates during 2011, $157,331 of the Debenture was converted into 16,156,404 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.0059 to $0.0174 based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Additionally $12,669 was added to the principle balance of the debenture in payment of accrued interest during 2011. The 4,310,446 shares remaining in escrow and reported as outstanding at December 31, 2010 were cancelled in the first quarter of 2011.

Pursuant to the 4.75% Convertible Debenture now due in 2014, beginning in November 2007, Golden State is obligated to submit conversion notices in an amount such that Golden State receives 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company every calendar quarter for a period of one year. In connection with each conversion, Golden State is expected to exercise warrants equal to 10 times the amount of principal converted. The warrants are exercisable at $10.90 per share. Beginning in November 2008, Golden State is required to convert $3,000 of the 4.75% Convertible Debenture and exercise 30,000 warrants per month. During 2009, Golden State converted $3,510 of the $100,000 debenture into 35,622,803 shares of common stock, exercised warrants to purchase 35,100 shares of common stock at $10.90 per share and the Company received $382,590 from the exercise of the warrants. During 2009, Golden State advanced $240,000 against future exercises of warrants and applied $4,181 of accrued interest due on the debenture to the advance account of which $336,170 was applied to the exercise of warrants leaving $48,511 of unapplied advances at December 31, 2009. During 2010, Golden State converted $4,752 of the $100,000 debenture into 162,454,399 shares of common stock, exercised warrants to purchase 47,523 shares of common stock at $10.90 per share and advanced $251,489 against future exercises of warrants of which $300,000 was applied to the exercise of warrants leaving $-0- of unapplied advances at December 31, 2010. During 2011, Golden State converted $6,760 of the $100,000 debenture into 60,601,868, shares of common stock and exercised warrants to purchase 67,600 shares of common stock at $10.90 per share based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Additionally Golden Gate advanced $753,381 against future exercises of warrants of which $736,840 was applied to the exercise of warrants leaving $16,542 of unapplied advances at December 31, 2011.

The Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology approved our application for funding of a matching grant titled 800 Million Voxels Volumetric Display, on November 19, 2008. The two-year matching grant, totaling $299,932, had a start date of January 1, 2009. We received approval for a no cost modification request, which extended the first year of the contract to August 31, 2010. In addition, the Company received approval for a second year no cost modification request, which extended the second year of the contract to February 28, 2012. In connection with the grant, the Company received (i) $35,139 during 2009; (ii) $96,362 during 2010; (iii) $86,323 during 2011; and $217,824 from inception to date.

On October 31, 2008 OU agreed to revise the payment terms under the SRA from a fixed monthly payment to a reimbursable cost payment basis effective September 1, 2008. As of September 30, 2008 the Company had a remaining obligation under the previous SRA payment schedule of $2,665,818 which included monthly payments due for December 2007 through August 31, 2008 of $861,131. The $1,804,687 balance of the remaining scheduled payment obligation was cancelled. Under the terms of the revised base payments schedule, the arrearages would be paid in nine monthly base installments from October 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 of amounts ranging from $35,000 to $101,132 leaving a remaining balance after the base payments of $290,000. In addition to the monthly base payments, the Company agreed to make additional payments on the $861,131 arrearages based on a formula of 50% of funding in excess of $120,000 plus the base monthly payment. In the event funding did not provide for any additional payments, the remaining balance would be $290,000, which OU agreed to accept 4,264,707 shares of the Company's common stock based on the October 14, 2008 market price as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board of $0.068 per share as payment on June 30, 2009. The Company had the option to repurchase the shares at $0.068 per share by September 30, 2009 or at market value, but not less than $0.068 per share, if the repurchase occurred after September 30, 2009.

The Company was unable to meet the revised payment schedule and on May 18, 2009 the University agreed to revise the payment terms. Under the terms of the revised base payments schedule, the arrearages scheduled to be paid in nine monthly base installments from October 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 of amounts ranging from $35,000 to $101,132, were deferred to a monthly payment schedule of July 2009 through February 2010. On February 19, 2010, the University agreed to modify the repayment plan to retire the outstanding debt of $525,481. Under the terms of the modified repayment plan the Company agreed to make payments to the University, not less than quarterly, in an amount equal to 22.5% of any funding received by the Company. The Company complied with the agreed upon payment schedule and on December 1, 2010 the Company entered into an agreement with OU pursuant to which OU agreed to convert all sums due to it from the Company in connection with its SRA with the Company, which as of December 1, 2010 amounted to approximately $485,000, into an aggregate of 59,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. As a result of the debt conversion, OU became the holder of approximately 8% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Pursuant to the agreement, the shares are subject to a put option allowing OU to require the Company to purchase certain of the shares upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, the shares are subject to a call option allowing the Company to require OU to sell to the Company the shares then held by OU in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not engage in any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Significant Accounting Policies

Research and Development Costs

The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred. Until we have developed a commercial product, all costs incurred in connection with the SRA with the University, as well as all other research and development costs incurred, will be expensed as incurred. After a commercial product has been developed, we will report costs incurred in producing products for sale as assets, but we will continue to expense costs incurred for further product research and development activities.

Stock-Based Compensation

Since its inception 3DIcon has used its common stock or warrants to purchase its common stock as a means of compensating our employees and consultants. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") guidance on accounting for share based payments requires us to estimate the value of securities used for compensation and to charge such amounts to expense over the periods benefited.

The estimated fair value at date of grant of options for our common stock is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, as follows:

The expected dividend yield is based on the average annual dividend yield as of the grant date. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rates as of the grant date. The expected life of the option is based on historical exercise behavior and expected future experience.

Subsequent Events

Debentures payable

In accordance with the terms of the Second Debenture an event of default occurs if the common stock of the Company trades at a price per share of $0.21 or lower. The trading price was at $0.21 or lower on several occasions during the period ended December 31, 2011 and subsequent to December 31, 2011. On each of the occasions Golden State, by separate letter agreements, agreed that the occasions did not constitute a default and thereby waived the default provision for the occasions.

Subsequent to December 31, 2011 Golden State converted $1,664 of the 4.75% convertible debenture into 25,049,954 shares of common stock at $0.00007 per share and exercised 16,635 warrants at $10.90 per share for $181,322 and advanced $100,000 for future exercise of warrants under the terms of the securities purchase agreements.

Common stock and paid in capital

Shares of common stock totaling 10,651,232 were issued in payment of $78,863 in legal and consulting fees under the terms of our agreements for service during 2011 and 2012.

OCAST Grant

The Company received approval for our no cost extension request for the second year of the contract and, with the new modification, the second year ends on August 31, 2012.

Employment contracts

On March 19, 2012 the Company announced that Sidney Aroesty would resign as CEO and join the Board of Directors. The Board appointed display industry veteran Mark Willner as CEO with an annual salary of $180,000.

Dr. George Melnik was appointed the new Senior Technical Advisor with an annual salary of $144,000. Dr. Hakki Refai will continue to serve as the Chief Technology Officer.

Civil Action Complaint

On April 2, 2012, the Company was served with a Summons and Complaint (the “Complaint”) for a civil action filed by Advanced Optical Technologies, Inc. (“AOT”) in the Second Judicial District Court of New Mexico, County of Bernalillo. In the Complaint, AOT alleged that the Company owed and refused to pay the amount of $90,124.91 for services performed by AOT through December 28, 2011 and AOT also asserted a fraud claim. The Company believes the allegations in the Complaint to be without merit. Nevertheless, the Company made efforts to resolve the dispute with AOT and believed the matter to be resolved, subject to documentation. The Company intends to aggressively defend the claims set forth in the Complaint.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our 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 of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

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

Changes. During the most recent quarter ended December 31, 2011, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting(as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Director or Officer Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Our directors and executive officers were not involved in any legal proceedings as described in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past ten years.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, in the past we determined that it was in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to combine these roles. From the inception of the Company through June 13, 2011, Martin Keating served as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Due to the small size and early stage of the Company, we believe it was most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions combined. Since June 13, 2011, the role of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman, or any member, of the Board of Directors was separated.

Our Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our Company's assessment of risks. Our Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company's general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by us are consistent with the Board's appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our Company's risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our board leadership structure and role in risk oversight is effective.

Code of Ethics

We have not adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct for Officers, Directors and Employees that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees.

On March 25, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Hakki Refai pursuant to which Dr. Refai agreed to serve as the Chief Technology Officer of the Company.

CONTENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

3DIcon Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of 3DIcon Corporation (a Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficiency, and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (January 1, 2001) to December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 3DIcon Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (January 1, 2001) to December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company is a development stage company having insufficient revenues and capital commitments to fund the development of its planned products. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

and Period from Inception (January 1, 2001) to December 31, 2011

Note 1 – Organization and Operations

Organization

3DIcon Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated on August 11, 1995, under the laws of the State of Oklahoma as First Keating Corporation. The articles of incorporation were amended August 1, 2003 to change the name to 3DIcon Corporation. The initial focus of First Keating Corporation was to market and distribute books written by its founder, Martin Keating. During 2001, First Keating Corporation began to focus on the development of 360-degree holographic technology. The effective date of this transition is January 1, 2001, and the financial information presented is from that date through the current period. The Company has accounted for this transition as reorganization and accordingly, restated its capital accounts as of January 1, 2001. From January 1, 2001, the Company's primary activity has been the raising of capital in order to pursue its goal of becoming a significant participant in the development, commercialization and marketing of next generation 3D display technologies.

The mission of the company is to develop (or acquire), commercialize, and market next generation 3D display technologies including auto-stereoscopic (glasses-free) volumetric 360-degree full-color 3D displays and possibly auto-stereoscopic (glasses-free) flat screen 3D displays. Our initial market focus is on business, industrial, and government applications of the technologies. At this time the Company owns no intellectual property in 3D displays but does own the exclusive worldwide rights to commercial and government usage of the 3D display intellectual property developed by the University of Oklahoma.

Uncertainties

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company is in the development stage and has insufficient revenue and capital commitments to fund the development of its planned product and to pay operating expenses.

The Company has realized a cumulative net loss of $16,421,120 for the period from inception (January 1, 2001) to December 31, 2011, and a net loss of $2,320,469 and $1,523,737 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern during the next year depends on the successful completion of the Company's capital raising efforts to fund the development of its planned technologies.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management plans to fund the future operations of the Company with existing cash of $17,666, grants and investor funding. Under the terms of the Golden State debentures, Golden State may advance an additional $378,787. The additional advance would be available if the Company filed a registration statement; however, the Company does not plan to file such registration statement. In addition, pursuant to the 4.75% Convertible Debenture due on December 31, 2014, beginning in November 2007, Golden State is obligated to submit conversion notices in an amount such that Golden State receives 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company every calendar quarter for a period of one year. In connection with each conversion, Golden State is expected to exercise warrants equal to 10 times the amount of principal converted. The warrants are exercisable at $10.90 per share. The number of warrants exercisable is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations contained in the 4.75% Debenture and the warrants ("the Beneficial Ownership Limitations"). The Beneficial Ownership Limitations prevent Golden State from converting on the 4.75% Debenture or exercising warrants if such conversion or exercise would cause Golden State's holdings to exceed 9.99% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. Subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations, Golden State is required to convert $3,000 of the 4.75% Convertible Debenture and exercise 30,000 warrants per month. Based upon our current stock price, our issued and outstanding shares as of December 31, 2011 and ignoring the impact of the Beneficial Ownership Limitations, the Company may receive up to $981,000 in funding from Golden State as a result of warrant exercises during the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company was approved for a matching grant from Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology (“OCAST”) on November 19, 2008 in the amount of approximately $300,000.  There remains $82,176 of grant funds to be provided through the end of the grant period, February 28, 2012.  (see Note 5 and Note 14)

Additionally, the Company is continuing to pursue financing through private offering of debt or common stock.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Research and development

Research and development costs, including payments made to the University of Oklahoma pursuant to the SRA, are expensed as incurred (see Note 4).

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements for employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company recognizes expenses for employee services received in exchange for stock based compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the shares awarded. The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 718.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC No. 740, Income Taxes. This standard requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In addition, this standard requires the recognition of future tax benefits, such as net operating loss carry forwards, to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. The amount of deferred tax liabilities or assets is calculated using tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized.

Net income (loss) per common share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC No. 260, Earnings Per Share. Under the provisions of this standard, basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted-average outstanding common shares. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted-average outstanding shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of warrants to purchase common stock and convertible debentures. Due to the Company's losses, such potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The weighted average number of potentially dilutive shares is 90,616,272 and 98,856,063 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

Debt issue costs

The Company defers and amortizes the legal and filing fees associated with long-term debt that is issued. These costs are primarily related to the convertible debentures, the majority of which have a three-year term. The amortization is charged to operations over the three-year term and then adjusted quarterly for debenture conversions to common stock.

Fair value of financial instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument held by the Company:

Current assets and current liabilities – The carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these items.

Debentures payable – The fair value of the Company's debentures payable has been estimated by the Company based upon the liability's characteristics, including interest rate. The carrying value approximates fair value.

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following is a summary of a recent accounting pronouncement that is relevant to the Company:

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-4 is intended to improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments are of two types: (i) those that clarify the Board’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements.

Note 7 – Debentures Payable

Debentures payable consist of the following:

Securities Purchase Agreement

6.25% Convertible Debenture due December 31, 2014

On November 21, 2007, the Company issued and sold a convertible note in the principal amount of $1,250,000 to Golden State (the "Debenture"). Pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, Golden State may, at its election, convert all or a part of the Debenture into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate equal to the lesser of (i) $2.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the five lowest volume weighted average prices during the twenty trading days prior to Golden State's election to convert, subject to adjustment as provided in the Debenture. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion or redemption of the Debenture. The Company filed a registration statement covering the shares to be issued upon conversion of the Debenture. Included in the registration statement were 4.25 million shares issuable on the Debenture based on 2007 market prices and assuming full conversion of the convertible debenture. The registration statement became effective on January 4, 2008.

Golden State advanced $125,000 on the $1.25 million Debenture on November 9, 2007 and $746,213 in January 2008 at which time the Company placed 7,961,783 shares of common stock in escrow to be released as debentures are converted. As of September 30, 2011, Golden State has funded an aggregate of $871,213 on the Debenture. Golden State will be obligated to fund the Company for the remaining $378,787 in principal on the Debenture upon the effectiveness of a registration statement underlying the remaining unfunded principal balance on the Debenture. At this time, the Company has not filed a registration statement. At various dates during 2010, $274,438 of the Debenture was converted into 93,196,578 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.0027 to $0.004 based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Additionally shares totaling 6,093,396 were issued in payment of $17,062 of accrued interest during 2010. At various dates during 2011, $157,331 of the Debenture was converted into 16,156,404 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.0059 to $0.0174 based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Additionally $12,669 was added to the principle balance of the debenture in payment of accrued interest during 2011.

The conversion price for the $1.25 million Debenture is the lesser of (i) $2.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the five lowest volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) trading days prior to the conversion.  If Golden State elects to convert a portion of the debenture and, on the day that the election is made, the volume weighted average price is below $0.75, the Company shall have the right to prepay that portion of the debenture that Golden State elected to convert, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, at 135% of such amount.

In addition to standard default provisions concerning timeliness of payments, delivery and notifications, the Second Debenture will be in default if the common stock of the Company trades at a price per share of $0.21 or lower, regardless of whether the trading price subsequently is higher than $0.21 per share. The trading price was at $0.21 or lower on several occasions during and subsequent to the period ended December 31, 2011. On each of the occasions Golden State, by separate letter agreements, agreed that the occasions did not constitute a default and thereby waived the default provision for those occasions only.  (See Note 14 -Subsequent Events) 

4.75% Convertible Debenture due December 31, 2014

On November 3, 2006, the Company also issued to Golden State a 4.75% convertible debenture in a principal amount of $100,000, due 2011, and warrants to buy 1,000,000 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $10.90 per share. Under the terms of the debenture, warrants are exercised in an amount equal to ten times the dollar amount of the debenture conversion. During 2010, Golden State converted $4,752 of the $100,000 debenture into 162,454,399 shares of common stock, exercised warrants to purchase 47,523 shares of common stock at $10.90 per share and advanced $251,489 against future exercises of warrants of which $300,000 was applied to the exercise of warrants leaving $-0- of unapplied advances at December 31, 2010. During 2011, Golden State converted $6,760 of the $100,000 debenture into 60,601,868, shares of common stock, exercised warrants to purchase 67,600 shares of common stock at $10.90 per share based on the formula in the convertible debenture. Additionally Golden Gate advanced $753,381 against future exercises of warrants of which $736,840 was applied to the exercise of warrants leaving $16,542 of unapplied advances at December 31, 2011.

The conversion price for the 4.75% $100,000 convertible debenture is the lesser of (i) $4.00 or (ii) 80% of the average of the five lowest volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) trading days prior to the conversion. If Golden State elects to convert a portion of the debenture and, on the day that the election is made, the volume weighted average price is below $0.75, the Company shall have the right to prepay that portion of the debenture that Golden State elected to convert, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, at 135% of such amount.

13% Convertible Debentures due 2011

On May 22, 2009, the Company issued to Newton, O'Connor, Turner & Ketchum, a professional corporation ("NOTK") and the legal counsel to the Company through 2008, a 10% convertible debenture in a principal amount of $100,703, due September 30, 2009, and warrants to purchase 4,378,394 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $0.09 per share through September 30, 2010 and an exercise price of $0.18 per share through September 30, 2014. The Company was indebted to NOTK for legal services performed for the Company and reimbursement of expenses in rendition of those services for the period ended December 31, 2008. The debenture and the warrants were issued in settlement of the indebtedness. The debentures and warrants were recorded at their pro rata fair values in relation to the proceeds received. The warrants were valued at $13,504. The difference between the pro rata fair value and face value of the debenture was charged to operations in 2009. The interest rate on the debenture increased to 13% during 2009 due to the Company not making payments when due.

The estimated fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected dividend yield of $-0- is based on the average annual dividend yield as of the grant date. Expected volatility of 160.73% is based on the historical volatility of the stock since July 25, 2007, the day the Company began trading on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. The risk-free interest rate of 2.23% is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rates as of the grant date. The expected life of the warrant of two years is based on historical exercise behavior and expected future experience.

On March 1, 2010, Newton, O'Connor, Turner & Ketchum agreed to extend the September 30, 2009 due date of their 13% debenture to March 31, 2010, in consideration for one million (1,000,000) shares of common stock.

The revised price at which the warrant may be exercised shall be $0.045 per share for exercises made during the period between the date of grant and the second anniversary of the revised maturity date, and $0.09 per share for exercises made during the forty-eight month period between the second anniversary of the revised maturity date and the sixth anniversary of the maturity date.

The revised dates at which the warrant may be exercised shall be $0.045 per share for exercises made during the period between the date of grant and the second anniversary of the revised maturity date, and $0.09 per share for exercises made during the forty-eight month period between the second anniversary of the revised maturity date and the sixth anniversary of the revised maturity date. The shares, which are restricted under SEC Section 144, were valued at 50% of the average of the previous five day closing price on March 31, 2011, which was $0.07 per share totaling $14,048.

The Company was indebted to NOTK for legal services performed for the Company and reimbursement of expenses in rendition of those services for the period ended December 31, 2009. The debenture and the warrants were issued in settlement of the indebtedness.  The interest rate on the debenture increased to 13% during 2010 due to the Company not making payments when due.

On April 30, 2011, Newton, O'Connor, Turner & Ketchum agreed to convert their 13% convertible debentures and accrued interest, which totaled in the aggregate $159,842 into 18,972,186 common shares of the Company’s common stock, at an average price per share of $0.008, under the terms of the convertible debentures.

Note 8 – Convertible Promissory Notes 5%, Due 2013

In October 2010, the Company issued 5% Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to six persons, in the aggregate, totaling $400,877. The Notes mature three years from the date issued.

Additionally, after March 15, 2011, at the option of the holder, the Notes are convertible into common stock of the Company at a price per share of $0.0025 (75% of the "Fixed Conversion Price"). Interest on the Notes accrue from the original issue date at 5% annually, is payable upon maturity or conversion of the Notes and such interest may be converted in whole or part to shares of common stock at the effective conversion price.

At various dates during 2011, the six persons converted the $400,877 Notes and accrued interest of $9,020 into 163,631,653 shares of common stock at $0.0025 per share.  The shares are restricted under SEC Section 144.

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rates as of the grant date.
