NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
January 31, 2011
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2010, which has been derived from
audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed interim financial statements included
herein have been prepared by Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. (together with its
consolidated subsidiaries, the Company or NIMS) in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and the
instructions to the quarterly report on Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements. These statements reflect adjustments, all of which are of a normal, recurring
nature, and which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Companys
financial position as of January 31, 2011, and results of operations and cash flows for the
interim periods ended January 31, 2011 and 2010. The results of operations for the three and
six months ended January 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full
year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The Companys accounting
policies continue unchanged from July 31, 2010. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2010.
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Organization. Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (together with
its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company or NIMS), began business as a medical diagnostic
monitoring company to develop computer-aided continuous monitoring devices to detect abnormal
respiratory and cardiac events using sensors on the human bodys surface. It has ceased to
operate in this market and has licensed the rights to its technology to the SensorMedics
division of ViaSys Healthcare Inc. (which is now a unit of CareFusion Corporation
(SensorMedics)), and to VivoMetrics, Inc. (VivoMetrics). The Company is now focused on
developing and marketing its Exer-Rest® line of acceleration therapeutic platforms
based upon unique, patented whole body periodic acceleration (WBPA) technology. The Exer-Rest
line of acceleration therapeutic platforms currently includes the Exer-Rest AT, AT3800 and
AT4700 models.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2009 registered the full Exer-Rest line
of products as Class I (Exempt) Medical Devices as described in the Companys 510(k) premarket
notification submission. The submission included 23 investigational and clinical studies on the
vasodilatation properties of WBPA, as well as a controlled, four week clinical trial in a group
of patients with chronic aches and pains carried out at the Center of Clinical Epidemiology and
Biostatistics at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School. The submission supported
Exer-Rest safety and efficacy for the cleared intended uses as an aid to temporarily increase
local circulation, to provide temporary relief of minor aches and pains, and local muscle
relaxation. The registration was based upon the FDAs determination that the Exer-Rest line of
devices was exempt from the premarket notification requirements of the Federal, Food Drug and
Cosmetic Act. In June 2009, the FDA authorized the expansion of intended use claims for the
Exer-Rest to include a claim of reducing morning stiffness. These Exer-Rest registrations in
the United States complement NIMS existing international clearance to market the Exer-Rest as a
class IIa medical device (CE120) in Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area,
India, the Middle East and certain other markets that recognize FDA and/or CE certifications
with the intended use described above plus the claim of improving joint mobility.
Business. The Company receives revenue from royalties on sales of diagnostic monitoring
hardware and software by SensorMedics. Additionally, the Company receives revenues from sales
of parts and service and from sales of acceleration therapeutics platforms. In fiscal year
2009, NIMS began commercial sales of its third generation Exer-Rest therapeutic platforms.
During the calendar years 2005 to 2007, the Company designed, developed and manufactured the
first Exer-Rest platform (now the Exer-Rest AT), a second generation acceleration therapeutics
platform, and updated its operations to promote the Exer-Rest AT overseas as an aid
to improve circulation and joint mobility and to relieve minor aches and pains.
The Company has developed a third generation of Exer-Rest acceleration therapeutic
platforms (designated the Exer-Rest AT3800 and the Exer-Rest AT4700) that
has been manufactured by Sing Lin Technologies Co. Ltd. (Sing Lin) based in Taichung, Taiwan
(see Note 10).
NIMS, an ISO 13485 certified company, began marketing operations in the United States in 2009
upon receiving the FDA clearance described above. The Company is also permitted to sell
Exer-Rest in Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, India, the Middle East and
certain other markets that recognize FDA and/or CE certifications, and began international
marketing operations during fiscal 2008.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
January 31, 2011
The Companys financial statements have been prepared and presented on a basis assuming it
will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements, the Company had net losses of $0.7 million and $0.8 million
for the six month periods ended January 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and has experienced
significant cash outflows from operating activities. The Company also has an accumulated
deficit of $22 million as of January 31, 2011, and has potential purchase obligations at January
31, 2011 (see note 10). These matters raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern.
Although the Company has commenced sales of the Exer-Rest in the United States, the Company will
need to generate additional funds during the next 12 months. Absent any significant revenues
from product sales, additional debt or equity financing will be required for the Company to
continue its business activities, which are currently focused on the marketing and commercial
sale of the Exer-Rest. It is managements intention to obtain any additional capital needed to
continue its business activities through new debt or equity financing, but there can be no
assurance that it will be successful in this regard. The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary from
the outcome of this uncertainty.
As further discussed in Note 10, the Company terminated its agreement with Sing Lin in 2010. As
of January 31, 2011, the Company has receivables from and prepayments to Sing Lin of
approximately $200,000, net of payables due to Sing Lin, and tooling and equipment with a net
book value of approximately $235,000 remains in possession of Sing Lin and its suppliers in
Asia. The ultimate realization of these assets is dependent on the Companys ability to resolve
the issue with Sing Lin; however the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems of
Florida, Inc., which has no current operations, and NIMS of Canada, Inc., a Canadian
corporation. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such
items include input variables relating to valuation of stock-based compensation and other
financial instruments. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments
purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
Company includes overnight repurchase agreements securing its depository bank accounts (sweep
accounts) in its cash balances. At January 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010, the Company had
approximately $109,000 and $125,000, respectively, on deposit in such sweep accounts.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts. The Company provides an allowance for royalties and other
receivables it believes it may not collect in full. Receivables are written off when they are
deemed to be uncollectible and all collection attempts have ceased. The amount of bad debt
recorded each period and the resulting adequacy of the allowance at the end of each period are
determined using a combination of the Companys historical loss experience, customer-by-customer
analysis of the Companys accounts receivable each period and subjective assessments of the
Companys future bad debt exposure. The Companys royalties and other receivables as of January
31, 2011 and July 31, 2010 in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets
are each presented net of an approximately $0 and $10,000, respectively, allowance for doubtful
accounts.
Inventories. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out
method, and are evaluated at least annually for impairment. Inventories at January 31, 2011 and
July 31, 2010 primarily consist of finished Exer-Rest units, spare parts and accessories.
Provisions for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are made based on managements
analysis of inventory levels, historical obsolescence and future sales forecasts.
Tooling and Equipment. These assets are stated at cost and depreciated or amortized using the
straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives.

NON-INVASIVE MONITORING SYSTEMS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
January 31, 2011
Long-lived Assets. The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In
performing the review for recoverability, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash
flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of
the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment
loss is recognized as the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the
asset.
Income Taxes. The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability based
approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the tax
consequences in future years of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The Company recognizes income tax
benefits for loss carryforwards; however these tax benefits are reduced by a valuation allowance
if it is more likely than not that loss carryforwards will expire before the Company is able to
realize their benefit, or if future deductibility is uncertain. For financial statement
purposes, the deferred tax asset for loss carryforwards has been fully offset by a valuation
allowance since it is uncertain whether any future benefit will be realized.
As of July 31, 2010, the Company had net Federal and State operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $12.1 million and Foreign operating loss carryforwards of $0.5 million available
to offset future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards expire in various years
through 2030.
The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the laws of the jurisdictions in which it
operates. Tax years ranging from 2008 to 2010 remain open to examination by various taxing
jurisdictions as the statute of limitations has not expired. Because the Company is carrying
forward income tax attributes, such as net operating losses and tax credits from 2007 and
earlier tax years, these attributes can still be audited when utilized on returns filed in the
future. It is the Companys policy to include income tax interest and penalties expense in its
tax provision.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue from product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, the goods are shipped and title has transferred, the price is fixed or
determinable, and the collection of the sales proceeds is reasonably assured. The Company
recognizes royalties as they are earned, based on reports from licensees.
Advertising Costs. The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising and
promotional costs are included in selling, general and administrative costs and expenses for all
periods presented, and totaled $5,000 and $12,000, respectively, for the three and six months
ended January 31, 2011. Advertising and promotional costs totaled $29,000 and $54,000,
respectively, for the three and six months ended January 31, 2010.
Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, and
primarily consist of payments to third parties for research and development of the Exer-Rest
device and regulatory testing and other costs to obtain FDA approval.
Warranties. The Companys warranties are two years on all Exer-Rest products sold domestically
and one year for products sold outside of the U.S. and are accrued based on managements
estimates and the history of warranty costs incurred. There were no material warranty costs
incurred during the three and six months ended January 31, 2011 and 2010, and management
estimates that the Companys accrued warranty expense at January 31, 2011 will be sufficient to
offset claims made for units under warranty.
Stock-based compensation. The Company recognizes all share-based payments, including grants of
stock options, as operating costs and expenses, based on their grant date fair values.
Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the vesting life of the underlying option
and is included in selling, general and administrative costs and expenses for all periods
presented.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon
certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of January 31,
2011 and July 31, 2010. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial
instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, advances, royalties and other receivables,
accounts payable, customer deposits, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate fair values
because they are short term in nature or they bear current market interest rates.
Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency for the Companys foreign subsidiary is
the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the
balance sheet date while income and expense amounts are translated at average exchange rates
during the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are disclosed as a
separate component of stockholders equity and other comprehensive loss. Foreign currency
translation adjustments totaled $14,000 and $0, respectively, for the six months ended January
31, 2011 and 2010.
Comprehensive Income (Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of
a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from
non-owner sources, including foreign currency translations.

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company measures the cost of employee, officer and director services received in
exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
The fair value of the Companys stock option awards is expensed over the vesting life of the
underlying stock options using the graded vesting method, with each tranche of vesting options
valued separately. The Company recorded stock-based compensation of $22,000 and $45,000,
respectively, for the three and six months ended January 31, 2011 and $15,000 and $53,000
respectively, for the three and six months ended January 31, 2010. All stock-based compensation
is included in the Companys selling, general and administrative costs and expenses.
The Companys 2000 Stock Option Plan (the 2000 Plan), as amended, provides for a total of
2,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The 2000 Plan allows the issuance of incentive stock options,
stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards. The exercise price of the options is
determined by the compensation committee of the Companys Board of Directors, but incentive
stock options must be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the
Companys Common Stock as of the grant date or an exercise price of not less than 110% of the
fair value for a 10% shareholder. Options expire up to ten years from the date of the grant and
are exercisable according to the terms of the individual option agreements. The 2000 Plan
expired on March 1, 2011. No additional grants may be made under the 2000 Plan; however,
previously granted options will remain in force pursuant to the terms of the individual grants.
In November 2010, the Companys Board and Compensation Committee approved the Non-Invasive
Monitoring Systems, Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2011 Plan). Awards granted under the
2011 Plan may consist of incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights (SAR), restricted
stock grants, restricted stock units (RSU) performance shares, performance units or cash awards.
Subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, the 2011 Plan authorizes up to 4,000,000 shares
of the Companys common stock for issuance pursuant to the terms of the 2011 Plan. The 2011
Plan has not yet been approved by the Companys shareholders and will not be adopted until such
shareholder approval is obtained.
The Company did not grant any stock options during the six months ended January 31, 2011 or the
six months ended January 31, 2010. The fair values of options granted are estimated on the date
of their grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on assumptions regarding
expected term, volatility, risk-free interest rates, dividend yield and forfeiture rates. The
expected term of stock option awards granted is generally based upon the simplified method for
plain vanilla options discussed in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, as amended by SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 110. The expected volatility is derived from historical volatility of
the Companys stock on the U.S. over-the-counter bulletin board for a period that matches the
expected term of the option. The risk-free interest rate is the yield from a Treasury bond or
note corresponding to the expected term of the option. The Company has not paid cash dividends
and does not expect to pay cash dividends in the future. Forfeiture rates are based on
managements estimates.

As of January 31, 2011, there was $66,000 of unrecognized costs related to outstanding stock
options. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.89
years.
5. ROYALTIES
The Company is a party to two licensing agreements and receives royalty income from the
sale of its diagnostic monitoring hardware and software by SensorMedics and VivoMetrics.
Royalty income from such product sales amounted to $104,000 and $87,000 for the six months ended
January 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, all of which was attributable to the licensing
agreement with SensorMedics and VivoMetrics. Royalties from VivoMeterics of $10,000 and $0 were
recognized for the six months ended January 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. VivoMetrics ceased
operations in July 2009 and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009. At July
31, 2010, the Company had a $10,000 receivable from VivoMetrics that was fully reserved in
allowances for doubtful accounts. As a condition to the transfer of the VivoMetrics license to
a new licensee pursuant to VivoMetrics court-approved plan of reorganization, VivoMetrics paid
the $10,000 outstanding balance in January 2011. Upon collection of the previously-reserved
receivable, the Company reversed the allowance, resulting in the recognition of $10,000
additional royalty income in the period ended January 31, 2011. The Company does not anticipate
any additional royalty income from the transferred VivoMetrics license for the foreseeable
future. The royalties receivable balance at January 31, 2011 was $16,000, consisting entirely of
receivables from SensorMedics.
6. NOTES PAYABLE
2010 Credit Facility. On March 31, 2010, the Company entered into a Note and Security
Agreement (the Credit Facility Agreement) with two lenders (the 2010 Lenders), pursuant to
which the 2010 Lenders granted the Company a revolving credit line (the Credit Facility) in
the aggregate amount of $1.0 million, secured by all of the Companys personal property. The
2010 Lenders include a holder of more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock and an entity
controlled by the Companys Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Company is permitted to
borrow and reborrow from time to time under the Credit Facility (the Credit
Facility Maturity Date). The Credit Facility was originally set
to expire on March 31, 2011 but was extended to July 31, 2011 (See Note 12). The interest rate payable on amounts outstanding under the Credit
Facility is 11% per annum, and increases to 16% after the Credit Facility Maturity Date or after
an Event of Default. All amounts owing under the Credit Facility are required to be repaid by
the Maturity Date, and amounts outstanding are prepayable at any time. As of January 31, 2011,
the Company had drawn down $1,000,000 under the Credit Facility.

7. SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
The Company issued 165,000 shares of common stock for the six months ended January 31, 2011
upon the conversion of an aggregate of 33 shares of Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to the
terms of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Company received $2,000 from existing option
holders during the six months ended January 31, 2011 for the exercise of options to purchase
13,333 shares of Common Stock, and 5,925 shares were issued to other existing option holders
upon the cashless exercise of 13,333 options.
8. BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all
dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Diluted potential common shares consist of
incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of
preferred stock. In computing diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended
January 31, 2011 and 2010, no dilution adjustment has been made to the weighted average
outstanding common shares because the assumed exercise of outstanding options and warrants and
the conversion of preferred stock would be anti-dilutive.
Potential common shares not included in calculating diluted net loss per share are as follows:
January 31, 2011 | January 31, 2010 | |||||||
Stock options |
2,442,500 | 2,296,832 | ||||||

The Companys Chief Financial Officer also serves as the Chief Financial Officer of Safestitch
and Vice President of Finance for Aero, which supervises the accounting staffs of SafeStitch and
Aero under a board-approved cost sharing arrangement
whereby the total salaries of the accounting staffs of the NIMS, SafeStitch and Aero are shared.
Since December 2009, the Companys Chief Legal Officer has served under a similar
board-approved cost sharing arrangement as Corporate Counsel of SearchMedia and as the Chief
Legal Officer of each of SafeStitch and Cardo. The shared employee costs are allocated to the
participating companies based on an estimate of the time each employee is expected to spend in
addressing each companys requirements. The allocations are reviewed quarterly and, if any
adjustment to the allocation methodology is warranted, the proposed adjustments are presented to
the Audit Committee or Board of each company for approval prior to implementation. Effective
August 1, 2010, all of the shared personnel previously employed directly by NIMS were hired by
SafeStitch, resulting in a decrease in NIMS payroll and an increase in shared services fees.
The Company recorded selling, general and administrative costs and expenses to account for the
sharing of costs under these arrangements of $40,000 and $82,000, respectively, for the three
and six months ended January 31, 2011, and $7,000 and $14,000, respectively, for the three and
six months ended January 31, 2010. Accounts payable to SafeStitch related to these arrangements
totaled approximately $12,000 and $10,000, respectively, at January 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010,
respectively.

Product Development and Supply Agreement.
On September 4, 2007, the Company entered into a Product Development and Supply Agreement (the
Agreement) with Sing Lin Technologies Co. Ltd., a company based in Taichung, Taiwan (Sing
Lin). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company consigned to Sing Lin the development and design
of the next generation Exer-Rest and related devices. The Agreement commenced as of September
3, 2007 and had a term that extended three years from the acceptance by NIMS of the first run of
production units. Thereafter, the Agreement automatically renewed for successive one year terms
unless either party sent the other a notice of non-renewal. Either party was permitted to
terminate the Agreement with ninety days prior written notice. Upon termination, each partys
obligations under the Agreement were to be limited to obligations related to confirmed orders
placed prior to the termination date.
The Company notified Sing Lin in June 2010 that it was terminating the Agreement effective
September 2010, and Sing Lin in July 2010 demanded that the Company place orders sufficient to
fulfill the three year minimum purchase obligations in the Agreement. There can be no assurance
that Sing Lin will not attempt to enforce its remedies under the Agreement, or pursue other
potential remedies. The Companys discussions with Sing Lin are ongoing.
Pursuant to the now-terminated Agreement, Sing Lin designed, developed and manufactured the
tooling required to manufacture the acceleration therapeutic platforms for a total cost to the
Company of $471,000. The net book value of the tooling at January 31, 2011 was approximately
$235,000, and is included in tooling and equipment, net.
Under the now-terminated Agreement, the Company also granted Sing Lin the exclusive distribution
rights for the products in certain countries in the Far East, including Taiwan, China, Japan,
South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia and certain other countries. Sing Lin has agreed not to sell
the Products outside its geographic areas in the Far East.
The Agreement further provided for the Company to purchase at least $2.6 million, $4.1 million
and $8.8 million of Exer-Rest units, respectively, in first, second and third years following
the September 2008 acceptance of the final product. These purchase amounts were based upon 2007
product costs multiplied by annual volume commitments. The Company had paid Sing Lin an
aggregate of $1.7 million in connection with orders placed through the September 2010
termination date. Of this amount, $90,000 is included in advances to contract manufacturer in
the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As of the termination
date, the Company had approximately $110,000 of net receivables from Sing Lin, and aggregate
minimum future purchases under the Agreement totaled approximately $13.8 million.

Overview
We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of non-invasive,
whole body periodic acceleration (WBPA) therapeutic platforms, which are motorized platforms that
move a subject repetitively from head to foot. Our acceleration therapeutic platforms are the
inventions of Marvin A. Sackner, M.D., our founder, Chief Executive Officer and a director. Over
thirty peer reviewed scientific publications attest to the benefits of whole body periodic
acceleration in animal and human research investigations. According to those studies, the
application of this technology causes release of beneficial substances such as nitric oxide from
the inner lining of blood vessels throughout the vasculature for improved circulation and the
reduction of inflammation. These findings are not being claimed as an intended use of the device
for marketing purposes, but demonstrate a potential mechanism for its benefits.
Prior to 2002, our primary business was the development of computer-assisted, non-invasive
diagnostic monitoring devices and related software designed to detect abnormal respiratory, cardiac
and other medical conditions from sensors placed externally on the bodys surface. We assigned our
patents for these ambulatory monitoring devices in 1999 to the SensorMedics Division of ViaSys
(which is now a unit of CareFusion Corporation (SensorMedics)), and to privately-held
VivoMetrics, Inc. (VivoMetrics), both of which are required to pay us royalties on sales of these
products. We continue to receive royalties from SensorMedics; however, VivoMetrics ceased
operations in July 2009, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009 and has not
paid royalties since July 2009. Under VivoMetrics proposed bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our
license with VivoMetrics will be assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as
to the future amount of royalty revenue, if any, that we may derive from this license or from our
existing license with SensorMedics.
In 2002, we began focusing on the research, development, manufacturing, marketing and sales of
non-invasive, motorized, whole body periodic acceleration (WBPA) platforms. These therapeutic
acceleration platforms are intended for use in homes, wellness centers and clinics as an aid to
improve circulation and joint mobility, relieve minor aches and pains, relieve morning stiffness,
relieve troubled sleep and as a mechanical feedback device for slow rhythmic breathing exercise for
stress management. Our first such platform, the AT-101, was initially registered with the United
States Food and Drug Administration (the FDA) as a Class 1 (exempt) powered exercise device and
was sold to physicians and their patients. In January 2005, the FDA disagreed with our device
classification, and requested that we cease commercial sales and marketing of the AT-101 until we
received clearance from the FDA to market the device following submission of a 510(k) application
incorporating appropriate clinical trial data. Accordingly, we ceased our commercial sales and
marketing of therapeutic platforms in 2005, but continued to receive royalty revenue from sales of
diagnostic monitoring hardware and software by SensorMedics and VivoMetrics.

Table of Contents
NON-INVASIVE MONITORING SYSTEMS, INC
In January 2005, we began development of a less costly and more efficient second generation
version of the AT-101, the Exer-Rest (now designated the Exer-Rest AT). In January 2008, we
received ISO 13485 certification for Canada, the United Kingdom and Europe from SGS United Kingdom
Ltd., the worlds leading verification and certification body. ISO 13485 certification is
recognized and accepted worldwide as a sign of design and manufacturing quality for medical
devices. In addition to our ISO certification, the Exer-Rest AT acceleration therapeutic platform
(Class IIa) was awarded CE0120 certification, which requires several safety-related conformity
tests, including clinical assessment for safety and effectiveness. The CE0120 certification is
often referred to as a passport that allows manufacturers from anywhere in the world to sell
their goods throughout the European market, as well as in many other countries. Prior to obtaining
FDA registration for the sale of our therapeutic acceleration platforms in the United States, we
marketed and sold the Exer-Rest AT platforms in the United Kingdom, Canada, Europe, India and Latin
America.
We entered into a product development and supply agreement with Sing Lin Technology Co., Ltd.
(Sing Lin) of Taichung, Taiwan on September 4, 2007. Under this agreement that was terminated
effective September 2010, Sing Lin began manufacturing the third generation versions of our
patented Exer-Rest motorized platforms (designated the Exer-Rest AT3800 and the Exer-Rest AT4700).
We filed a 510(k) premarket notification submission with the FDA in October 2008 for approval to
market the Exer-Rest line of platforms in the United States. The submission included 23
investigational and clinical studies on the vasodilatation properties of WBPA, as well as a
controlled, four week clinical trial in a group of patients with chronic aches and pains carried
out at the Center of Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of Pennsylvania
Medical School. The submission supported Exer-Rest safety and efficacy for the intended uses as an
aid to temporarily increase local circulation, to provide temporary relief of minor aches and pains
and to provide local muscle relaxation. The FDA informed us in January 2009 that the full
Exer-Rest line of products would be registered as Class I (Exempt) Medical Devices as described in
the Companys 510(k) premarket notification submission, at which time we commenced marketing the
Exer-Rest in the U.S. In June 2009, the FDA notified us that the additional intended use of the
Exer-Rest as an aid to reduce morning stiffness would be added to the Exer-Rests FDA registration.
We currently market and sell our Exer-Rest devices in the US, Canada, UK, Europe, India and Latin
America. Prior to the 2010 termination of our development and supply agreement with them, Sing Lin
marketed and sold the Exer-Rest exclusively in certain Asian markets.
The development of the Exer-Rest has necessitated substantial expenditures and commitments of
capital, and we anticipate experiencing losses through the end of the 2011 fiscal year as we expect
to expand sales in the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, India, Latin America and the Far East. We will
need to raise additional capital to fulfill our business plan, but no commitment to raise such
additional capital exists or can be assured. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to expand sales
and/or raise capital, we will not be able to continue our operations.
Products
Exer-Rest Therapeutic Devices. The Exer-Rest AT therapeutic platform is based upon the
design and concept of our original AT-101 therapeutic vibrator, but has the dimensions and
appearance of a commercial extra long twin bed, is more efficient, less costly and priced lower.
QTM Incorporated (QTM), an FDA registered manufacturer (Oldsmar, FL) manufactured the device,
which was built in accordance with ISO and FDA Good Manufacturing Practices. Sales of the
Exer-Rest AT began overseas in October 2007. We discontinued manufacturing of the Exer-Rest AT in
July 2009, and we expect to utilize our remaining inventory of these units primarily for research
purposes. The Exer-Rest AT3800 and Exer-Rest AT4700, which were manufactured for us by Sing Lin
prior to the termination of our agreement with them, are next generation versions of the Exer-Rest
AT and further advance the acceleration therapeutic platform technology. The AT3800 (38 wide) and
AT4700 (47 wide) models combine improved drive technology for quieter operation, a more
comfortable memory-foam mattress, more convenient operation with a multi-function wireless
remote and a more streamlined look to improve the WBPA experience. Sales of the Exer-Rest AT3800
and Exer-Rest AT4700 platforms began outside the US in October 2008, and US sales commenced in
February 2009.
LifeShirt®. The LifeShirt is a patented Wearable Physiological Computer that
incorporates transducers, electrodes and sensors into a sleeveless garment. These sensors transmit
vital and physiological signs to a miniaturized, battery-powered, electronic module which saves the
raw waveforms and digital data to the compact flash memory of a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)
attached to the LifeShirt. Users of the LifeShirt can enter symptoms (with intensity), mood, and
medication information directly into the PDA for integration with the physiologic information
collected by the LifeShirt garment. The flash memory can then be removed from the LifeShirt and
the data uploaded and converted into minute-by-minute median trends of more than 30 physical and
emotional signs of health and disease. Vital and physiological signs can therefore be obtained
non-invasively, continuously, cheaply, and reliably with the comfortably worn LifeShirt garment
system while resting, exercising, working or sleeping. The LifeShirt was sold exclusively by
VivoMetrics, but has not been marketed since VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009. Under
VivoMetrics proposed bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our license with VivoMetrics will be
assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of
LifeShirt sales, if any, that may result from this license.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations set
forth below under Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources should be read in
conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including
those related to royalties, inventory, tooling and equipment and contingencies. The Companys
accounting policy for loss contingencies complies with ASC 450-20-25-2. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed 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. A more detailed
discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note 2 in the
Notes to the Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended July 31, 2010. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Results of Operations
In January 2005, we began developing the Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic
platforms, which were designed to be more efficient and less expensive than the original AT-101
platform. The Exer-Rest AT platform was first available for delivery to certain
locations outside of the United States in October 2007. Our newest platforms, the Exer-Rest AT3800
and AT4700, which we developed under our former agreement with Sing Lin, became available for sale
in October 2008. In January 2009, the Exer-Rest line of therapeutic platforms was registered by
the FDA in the United States as Class I (Exempt) Medical Devices. We began our US and
international sales activity with aggressive marketing and promotional pricing beginning in
February 2009. We opened our first demonstration and therapy center in Toronto, Canada in April
2009; however we closed that facility in January 2010 to focus our marketing and sales efforts on
healthcare providers as well as individuals. We currently market the Exer-Rest to hospitals,
cardiac rehabilitation clinics, chiropractic and physical therapy centers, senior living
communities and other healthcare providers, as well as to their patients, professional athletes and
other individuals.
Three and six months ended January 31, 2011 compared to three and six months ended January 31,
2010
Revenues. Total revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2011 was of $187,000, as
compared to $199,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2010. The $12,000 decrease was due to
an $11,000 increase in royalty revenue in the 2011 period, partially offset by a $23,000 decrease
in product sale revenue. Total revenues decreased from $396,000 for the six months ended January
31, 2010, to $359,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2011. This $37,000 decrease resulted
from a $54,000 decrease in product sales, offset in part by a $17,000 increase in royalty revenues.
Exer-Rest platform
unit sales revenue during the six months ended January 31, 2011 decreased
approximately 18% over the six months ended January 31, 2010. This decrease in product sales
revenue was primarily attributable to deliveries of bulk orders of Exer-Rest AT3800 models to
overseas distributors in the six months ended January 31, 2010.
Royalty revenue
from SensorMedics and VivoMetrics was $56,000 and $104,000 for the three and
six months ended January 31, 2011, respectively and was $45,000 and $87,000 for the three and six
months ended January 31, 2010, respectively. The $11,000 and $17,000 respective increases for the
three and six month periods are primarily attributable reasonable business growth and the $10,000
receipt from VivoMetrics in 2011. As discussed above, there can be no assurance that we will receive any
future royalties from the pending assignment of our license with VivoMetrics.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the three and six months ended January 31, 2011 was $49,000
and $94,000, respectively, as compared to $83,000 and $150,000, respectively, for the three and six
months ended January 31, 2010. These $34,000 and $56,000 respective decreases were primarily the
result of the decreased number of units sold in the 2011 fiscal periods. As a percentage of
revenue, cost of sales was lower in the six months ended January 31, 2011 primarily because a
greater proportion of units delivered in the six months ended January 31, 2010 were sold to
distributors at discounted prices.
Selling, general and administrative costs and expenses. Selling, general and administrative
(SG&A) costs and expenses decreased to $403,000 and $865,000, respectively, for the three and six
months ended January 31, 2011, from $453,000 and $989,000, respectively, for the three and six
months ended January 31, 2010. These $50,000 and $124,000 respective decreases were primarily
attributable to decreases in stock-based compensation expense, payroll expenses, advertising and
trade show expenses and rent, offset in part by increased accounting and legal costs attributable
to our shared services arrangement with certain affiliated companies. SG&A costs and expenses
include stock-based compensation expense, which totaled $45,000 for the six months ended January
31, 2011, as compared to $53,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2010. We expect payroll and
other SG&A costs and expenses to decrease throughout the remainder of the 2012 fiscal year as we
implement cost-containment measures to extend the utilization of our available cash and credit.

Research and development costs and expenses. Research and development (R&D) costs and
expenses decreased to $22,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2011 from $55,000 for the six
months ended January 31, 2010, a decrease of $33,000 and decreased to $11,000 for the three months
ended January 31, 2011 from $15,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2010, a decrease of
$4,000. The higher costs in the three and six months ended January 31, 2010 related primarily to
costs associated with the commencement of certain clinical trials.
Total operating costs and expenses. Total operating costs and expenses decreased $88,000 from
$551,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2010 to $463,000 for the three months ended January
31, 2011. Total operating costs and expenses decreased $213,000 from $1,194,000 for the six months
ended January 31, 2010 to $981,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2011. These decreases were
primarily attributable to the decrease in cost of sales related to lower sales volume, as well as
the lower SG&A and R&D costs and expenses discussed above.
Interest expense, net. Net interest expense was $27,000 and $46,000 in the three and six
month periods ended January 31, 2011, as compared to $0 for the three and six months ended January
31, 2010, respectively. The $46,000 net interest expense in the 2011 periods was related to
balances outstanding under the credit facility described below to the accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our operations have been primarily financed through private sales of our equity
securities and the credit facility. At January 31, 2011, we had approximately $133,000 of cash. We
expect these funds will be sufficient to support our operations only through early April, 2011. If
we are not able to generate significant revenue with our current marketing efforts, we will be
required to obtain additional external financing to continue operations. No assurance can be given
that such additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to
sell additional shares of our stock and/or borrow cash could be materially adversely affected by
the current climate in the Global equity and credit markets. Current economic conditions have
been, and continue to be, volatile and continued instability in these market conditions may limit
our ability to access the capital necessary to fund and grow our business and to replace, in a
timely manner, maturing liabilities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $402,000 and $683,000 for six months ended January
31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Reduced payments to Sing Lin for inventory purchases were offset
by increased use of cash for other working capital items.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $369,000 for the six months ended January 31,
2011, primarily from the $400,000 proceeds from the Credit Facility described in Note 6 to the
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Net cash used by financing
activities was $33,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2010, primarily for the repayment of
notes financing insurance premiums.
Under our now-terminated agreement with Sing Lin, we were committed to purchase approximately
$2.6 million of Exer-Rest units within one year of acceptance of the final product, which
acceptance occurred in September 2008, and an additional $4.1 million and $8.8 million of products
in the second and third years following acceptance of the final product, respectively. Under the
agreement, we were required to pay a portion of the product purchase price at the time production
orders were placed, with the balance due upon delivery. Through January 31, 2011, we paid Sing Lin
$1.7 million in connection with orders placed through that date, and we will be required to make
additional payments totaling approximately $60,000 upon taking delivery of the units currently in
production. As of January 31, 2011, we had not placed orders sufficient to satisfy the first-year
or second-year purchase obligations under the agreement. We notified Sing Lin in June 2010 that we
were terminating the agreement effective September 2010, and Sing Lin in July 2010 demanded that we
place orders sufficient to fulfill the three year minimum purchase obligations in the agreement.
There can be no assurance that Sing Lin will not attempt to enforce its remedies against us, or
pursue other potential remedies. If Sing Lin seeks to enforce remedies against us, any such
remedies could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity and results of operations.
As of January 31, 2011, the Company has receivables from and prepayments to Sing Lin of
approximately $200,000, net of payables due to Sing Lin, and tooling and equipment with a net book
value of approximately $235,000 remains in possession of Sing Lin and its suppliers in Asia. The
ultimate realization of these assets is dependent on our ability to resolve the issue with Sing
Lin, however there can be no assurance that the value of these assets will be realized. Our
discussions with Sing Lin are ongoing.
2010 Credit Facility. On March 31, 2010, we entered into a Note and Security
Agreement (the Credit Facility Agreement) with Frost Gamma and Hsu Gamma (the 2010 Lenders),
pursuant to which the 2010 Lenders granted us a revolving credit line (the Credit Facility) in
the aggregate amount of up to $1.0 million, secured by all of our personal property. We are
permitted to borrow and reborrow from time to time under the Credit Facility until July 31, 2011
(the Credit Facility Maturity Date). The interest rate payable on amounts outstanding under the
Credit Facility is 11% per annum, and increases to 16% after the Credit
Facility Maturity Date or after an event of default. All amounts owing under the Credit
Facility are required to be repaid by the Credit Facility Maturity Date, and amounts outstanding
are prepayable at any time. As of January 31, 2011, we had drawn an aggregate of $1,000,000 under
the Credit Facility and there is no available balance remaining.

Our financial statements have been prepared and presented on a basis assuming we will continue
as a going concern. The Company had net losses totaling $1.6 million for the year ended July 31,
2010, and $657,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2011. In addition, we have an accumulated
deficit of $22.0 million as of January 31, 2011, and we have potential purchase obligations
outstanding at January 31, 2011 (see Note 10 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements). As of January 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$133,000, and had no credit remaining under the Credit Facility. If we are unable to generate
significant revenues from sales of Exer-Rest platforms, we will have insufficient funds to repay
debt and continue operations beyond early April 2011. There can be no assurance that we will be
able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. These matters raise
substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. |
Not required for smaller reporting companies as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange
Act.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management
evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
quarter ended January 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
The unavailability of third-party reimbursement may make healthcare providers less willing to
purchase our products.
If Medicare and/or third-party payers elect to not reimburse WBPA as a qualified unlisted
procedure or if a new reimbursement code is not established, it may weaken demand for our product
among healthcare providers, which could have a material adverse effect on the results of our
operations and financial position.
Because our common stock is a penny stock, it may be more difficult for investors to sell
shares of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected.
Our
common stock, which currently trades only on the OTCQB, is a penny stock since, among other
things, the stock price is below $5.00 per share, it is not listed on a national securities
exchange, and it has not met certain net tangible asset or average revenue requirements.
Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks must provide purchasers of these stocks with a standardized
risk-disclosure document prepared by the SEC. This document provides information about penny
stocks and the nature and level of risks involved in investing in the penny-stock market. A broker
must also give a purchaser, orally or in writing, bid and offer quotations and information
regarding broker and salesperson compensation, make a written determination that the penny stock is
a suitable investment for the purchaser and obtain the purchasers written agreement to the
purchase. Broker-dealers must also provide customers that hold penny stock in their accounts with
such broker-dealer a monthly statement containing price and market information relating to the
penny stock. If a penny stock is sold to an investor in violation of the penny stock rules, the
investor may be able to cancel its purchase and get its money back.
If applicable, the penny stock rules may make it difficult for investors to sell their shares
of our common stock. Because of the rules and restrictions applicable to a penny stock, there is
less trading in penny stocks and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected.
Also, many brokers choose not to participate in penny stock transactions. Accordingly, investors
may not always be able to resell their shares of our common stock publicly at times and prices
acceptable to them.
Our stock price has been volatile and there may not be an active, liquid trading market for
our common stock.
Our stock price has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations and may continue to
experience volatility in the future. The price of our common stock has ranged between $0.15 and
$0.49 for the 52-week period ended September 30, 2010. Factors that have a significant impact on
the price of our common stock, in addition to the other issues described in this report, include
results of or delays in our pre-clinical and clinical studies, announcements of technological
innovations or new commercial products by us or others, developments in patents and other
proprietary rights by us or others, future sales of our common stock by existing shareholders,
regulatory developments or changes in regulatory guidance, the departure of our officers, directors
or key employees, and period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results. Also, you may not be
able to sell your shares at the best market price if trading in our stock in not active or if the
volume is low. There is no guarantee that an active trading market for our common stock will be
maintained on the OTCQB, or other quotation system.
Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
The
Company issued 5,925 shares of its common stock to an option holder
upon the cashless exercise of 13,333 options on January 27, 2011.
On January 26, 2011, the Company issued 13,333 shares of its
common stock upon exercise of options by a former director of the
Company at an exercise price of $ 0.15 per share for total
consideration of $2,000. The proceeds will be used for general
working capital purposes. The Company issued the above-described
Common Stock in reliance upon the exemption from registration
provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The
securities described above were issued to accredited investors. The
exercised options restrict transfer of Common Stock acquired upon
exercise thereof unless an applicable exemption exists under the
securities laws, and a legend was placed on the stock certificates
representing the Common Stock issued upon exercise to the effect that
the shares were not registered and absent registration could only be
transferred with an appropriate exemption.
