NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009.

2. FORMATION AND BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

Business Description

Vycor Medical, LLC, (the "Company") was formed in September 17, 2005 under the laws of the State of New York. The Company converted its entity form on August 14, 2007 from a New York Limited Liability Company to a Delaware Corporation with 16,048 of common stock exchange for each partnership unit with 1122 units outstanding at date of conversion. The assets, liabilities and operations of the Company did not change pursuant to this reorganization, and the accompanying financial statements are presented as if the change occurred on the first day of the earliest period presented; thus all are references to number of shares prior to the date of conversion are based upon the common stock equivalent of the units. The Company's business plan is to develop and market a commercially feasible surgical access system for sale to hospitals and medical professionals.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Research and Development

The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the amounts charged to research and development expenses were $9,657 and $0, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company's accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

At September 30, 2010 and 2009, fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses short term promissory notes approximate their carrying amount due to the short period of time to maturity. The fair value of the Company's long term debt is based on the present value using a discount rate comparable with borrowing rates available to the Company along with various fair value model calculations used to value certain debt related securities.

Property and equipment

The Company records property and equipment at cost and calculates depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets, which is estimated to be between three and ten years.

Income taxes

Based upon relevant FASB standard, deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against the gross deferred tax asset as of September 30, 2010 as it is more likely that this deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Critical estimates include amortization of intangible assets, and the fair values of options and warrant included in the determination of debt discounts and share based compensation.

Patents

The Company capitalizes legal and related costs associated with the establishment of patents for its products. Costs associated with the development of the patented item or processes are charged to research and development costs as incurred. The costs associated with the establishment of the patents are amortized over the life of the patent.

The Company reviews existing patents as well as those in the approval process for impairment on an annual basis using a present value, cash flow method based upon relevant FASB standard. Since the Company's patents are either very new or still in the process of approval, the Company does not believe that any impairment of these amounts exists.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue, based upon relevant FASB standard, when a completed contract for the sale exists, title transfers to the buyer and the product is invoiced and shipped to the customer. The Company sells a surgical access system which has already cleared the U.S. FDA 510(k) review process. It has been granted a 510(k) number for marketing the system to hospitals and other medical professionals. The Company does not expect the need to provide for product returns or warranty costs but will review such potential costs after the commencement of sales on an annual basis.

Educational and marketing expenses

The Company may incur costs for the education of customers on the uses and benefits of its products. The Company will expense such costs as a component of selling, general and administrative costs as such costs are incurred.

Website Costs

The Company capitalizes the costs associated with the acquisition of hardware and development tools as well as the creation of database tools in connection with the Company's website pursuant to the relevant FASB standard. Other costs including the development of functionality and identification of software tools are expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation based upon the relevant FASB standards, under which compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of the grant, between the fair value of the Company's stock and the exercise price. Stock-based compensation determined under relevant FASB standards is recognized over the option vesting period.

Prior to the adoption of a stock option plan adopted on February 13, 2008, the Company only issued share based compensation to consultants for goods or services. The Company accounted for these transactions based upon the relevant FASB standards. Under these standards, options, warrants, and stock are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The Company remeasured the fair value of such instruments granted at each reporting period until performance under the consulting arrangements were completed and the measurement date was reached. The Company records the expense of such services on the estimate fair value of the equity instrument using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The initial expense is recognized over the term of the service agreement.

For future awards to employees, the Company will adopt the relevant FASB standard which requires the recognition of compensation expense for future stock-based compensation awards to employees. Using a fair-value-based method, for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options. These standards require companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. All option grants valued after January 1, 2006 are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

Effective January 1, 2008, the relevant FASB standards define the fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. These standards require that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These standards also established a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels.

There are three general valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value, as described below:

a) Market approach - Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. Prices may be indicated by pricing guides, sale transactions, market trades, or other sources;

b) Cost approach - Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost); and

c) Income approach - Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations about the future amounts (includes present value techniques and option-pricing models). Net present value is an income approach where a stream of expected cash flows is discounted at an appropriate market interest rate.

Financial assets and liabilities are valued using either level 1 inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices within active markets or using level 2 inputs based primarily on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets. For certain long-term debt, fair value is based on present value techniques using inputs derived principally or corroborated from market data. Using level 3 inputs using management's assumptions about the assumptions market participants would utilize in pricing the asset or liability. In the Company's case this entailed assumptions used in pricing models for attached warrant calculations. Valuation techniques utilized to determine fair value are consistently applied.

The Company's convertible debentures are the only items that are subject to these standards as of September 30, 2010 as follows:


	Unobservable inputs (level 3)			$ 496,215

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period plus dilutive potential common shares calculated using the treasury stock method. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce a net loss per share. The Company's potential dilutive shares, which include outstanding common stock options, convertible notes payable and warrants, have not been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share for all periods as the result would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the potential shares of common stock that are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive as of the end of each period presented:


	September 30, 2010	December 31, 2009
Stock options outstanding	833,333	1,000,000

Warrants to purchase common stock	116,766,670	35,493,172

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB ASC 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - Overall ("ASC 105-10"). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve

only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures - Overall ("ASC 820-10") with respect to its financial assets and liabilities. In February 2008, the FASB issued updated guidance related to fair value measurements, which is included in the Codification in ASC 820-10-55, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures - Overall - Implementation Guidance and Illustrations. The updated guidance provided a one year deferral of the effective date of ASC 820-10 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed in the financial statements at fair value at least annually. Therefore, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820-10 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities effective January 1, 2009, and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"). ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. ASC 805 changes the previous treatment of acquisition related costs, restructuring costs related to an acquisition that the acquirer expects but is not obligated to incur, contingent consideration associated with the purchase price and pre-acquisition contingencies associated with acquired assets and liabilities. Under ASC 805, acquisition costs associated with business combinations will be expensed as incurred, whereas, prior to the adoption of ASC 805, similar costs associated with a successful acquisition were capitalized. ASC 805 applies to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the adoption date, thus the adoption of ASC 805 will have no effect on prior acquisitions. The effect of the adoption of ASC 805 will depend upon the nature of any future business combinations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance relating to intangible asset valuation, which is included in the Codification in ASC 350-30-55, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill - Implementation ("ASC 350-30-55"). ASC 350-30-55 amends ASC 350-30, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, to identify the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. ASC 350-30-55 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008. The Company adopted the amendment to ASC 350-30 effective January 1, 2009, and such amendment did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 825-10-65, Financial Instruments - Overall - Transition and Open Effective Date Information ("ASC 825-10-65"). ASC 825-10-65 amends ASC 825-10 to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements and also amends ASC 270-10, Presentation - Interim Reporting - Overall, to require those disclosures in all interim financial statements. The adoption of ASC 825-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 320-10-65, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities - Overall -Transition and Open Effective Date Information ("ASC 320-10-65). ASC 320-10-65 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation of other-than-temporary impairments in the financial statements. The adoption ASC 320-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 855-10, Subsequent Events - Overall ("ASC 855-10"). ASC 855-10 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It required the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date - that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented. In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-09"). ASU 2010-09 amended the guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. Adoption of ASC 855-10, as amended, did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASU No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) ("ASU 2009-05"). ASU 2009-05 provided amendments to ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures -Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. ASU 2009-05 provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using certain techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of a

liability. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. Adoption of ASU 2009-05 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements have been presented on a basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business and assumes the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception, including a net loss of $1,209,216 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and the Company expects to continue to incur substantial additional losses in the future, including additional development costs, costs related to marketing and manufacturing expenses. The Company has incurred negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2010 the Company had a stockholders' deficiency of $247,880 and cash and cash equivalents of $44,142. The Company believes it would not have enough cash to meet its various cash needs unless the Company is able to obtain additional cash from the issuance of debt or equity securities. There is no assurance that additional funds from the issuance of equity will be available for the Company to finance its operations on acceptable terms. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may have to delay development or commercialization of products or technologies that the Company would otherwise seek to commercialize, or cease operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Under a previously disclosed agreement entered into with Fountainhead Capital Management Limited, Fountainhead agreed to fund or procure funding for Vycor Medical's monthly operating expenses through September 2010 subject to the Company meeting certain financial benchmarks. The Company entered into a new agreement on September 29, 2010 under which Fountainhead agreed to extend this commitment for Vycor Medical's operating expenses through August, 2011.

4. NOTES PAYABLE

As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Notes Payable consists of:


	September 30, 2010	December 31, 2009

On December 29, 2009, in conjunction with a debt restructuring (see Note 5) the Company issued a convertible debenture in the amount of $70,000 payable to Fountainhead Capital Management Limited.

7. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Under relevant FASB standard, options are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The Company remeasured the fair value of the options or warrants granted at each reporting period until performance under the consulting agreement was completed and the measurement date was reached. The Company expensed the fair value of the instrument granted over the requisite service period which was the term of the consulting agreement, or one year.

For employee based awards which consist only of awards made under the "Stock Option Plan" described below, the company follows relevant FASB standards which require companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Under these standards, compensation cost for employee stock-based awards is based on the estimated grant-date fair value and recognized over the vesting period of the applicable award on a straight-line basis. There were no employee stock options granted for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Stock Option Plan

The Company has adopted the Vycor Medical, Inc Employee, Director, and Consultant Stock Plan as of February 13, 2008, that includes both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options to be granted to employees, officers, and consultants, independent contractors, directors and affiliates of the Company. The board of directors establishes the terms and conditions of all stock options grants, subject to the Plan and applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Incentive stock options must be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The options granted to participants owning more than 10% of the Company's outstanding voting stock must be granted at an exercise price not less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The options expire on the date determined by the board of directors, but may not extend mare than 10 years from the grant date, while incentive stock options granted to participants owning more than 10% of the Company's outstanding voting stock expire five years from the grant date. The vesting period for employees is generally over three years. The vesting Period for nonemployees is determined based on the services being provided.

Initial grants totaling 500,000 shares each were issued on February 13, 2008 to Kenneth T. Coviello, Chief Executive Officer and Heather N. Vinas, President at an exercise price of $.135 per share. The options vest 33 1/3 % on each of the first, second, and third anniversary of the grant and expire February 12, 2018. Accordingly, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recognized share-based compensation amounts of $28,920 and $28,920, for each of the respective grants.

The maximum number of shares of stock which maybe delivered under the plan shall automatically increase by a number sufficient to cause the number of shares covered by the plan to equal 10% of the total number of shares of stock then outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

Stock appreciation rights may be granted either on a stand alone basis or in conjunction with all or part of any other stock options granted under the plan. As of September 30, 2010 there were no awards of any stock appreciation rights.

In consideration for being the Company's strategic business advisor, in 2007 the Company issued a warrant to Martin Magida to purchase up to 160,480 shares of the Company's common stock at $.24 per share. The warrant is valid from September 1, 2007 for a period of five years. This warrant was fair valued under the Black-Scholes Model and amortized over the life of the warrant agreement.

In consideration for providing advisory services in 2007, the Company issued a warrant to Robert Guinta to purchase up to 160,480 shares of the Company's common stock at $.24 per share. The warrant is valid from September 1, 2007 for a period of five years. This warrant was fair valued under the Black-Scholes Model and amortized over the life of the warrant agreement. For the year ended September 30, 2010, $3,342 was recognized as share-based compensation in connection with this agreement.

Under the terms of a consulting agreement dated February 2010, the Company issued warrants to Fountainhead Capital Management to purchase up to 39,063,670 shares of the Company's common stock at $.0125 per share. The warrants are valid from February 10, 2010 for a period of five years. This warrant was fair valued under the Black-Scholes Model and amortized over the life of the warrant agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, $44,800 was recognized as share-based compensation in connection with this agreement.

Under the terms of an Extension of Funding Commitment agreement dated September 2010, the Company issued warrants to Fountainhead Capital Management to purchase up to 50,627,407 shares of the Company's common stock at $.0175 per share. The warrants are valid from September 29, 2010 for a period of five years. This warrant was fair valued under the Black-Scholes Model and amortized over the life of the warrant agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, $0 was recognized as share-based compensation in connection with this agreement.

Stock-based compensation expense charged to operations on options and warrants granted to the above non-employees for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 is $51,484. As of September 30, 2010, there was approximately $807,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock options awards, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 4.5 years.

Stock-based compensation expenses related to stock options granted to non-employees is recognized as the stock options are earned. The Company believes that the fair value of the stock options is more reliably measured than the fair value of the services received. The fair value of the stock options granted is calculated at each reporting date, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, until the award vests or there is substantial disincentive for the non-employee not to perform the required services. The following assumptions were used in calculations of the Black Scholes option pricing model:


	Risk-free interest rates			4 - 5%
	Expected life			3 years
	Expected dividends			0%
	Expected volatility			99%

Expected Life. The expected life is based on the "simplified" method described in the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 14: Share-Based Payment.

Volatility. Since the Company was a private entity for most of 2007 with no historical data regarding the volatility of its common stock, the expected volatility used for 2006 and 2007 is based on volatility of similar entities, referred to as "guideline" companies. In evaluation similarity, the Company considered factors such as industry, stage of life cycle and size.

Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free rate is based on rates approximating U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms similar to the expected term on the options.

Dividend Yield. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and therefore, used an expected dividend yield of zero in the valuation method.

Forfeitures. The relevant FASB standards require the Company to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant, and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company uses historical data, however limited to date, to estimate pre-vesting options forfeitures and record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. All stock-based payment awards are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of awards, which are generally the vesting periods. If the Company's actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, the stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.

The weighted-average remaining contractual life of outstanding warrants and options is 4.71 and 7.88 years, respectively.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company has incurred net operating losses since inception. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carry forward in the financial statements. Prior to August 15, 2007 the Company was a limited liability company and losses were flowed through to the individual members, therefore the Company only has potential tax benefits from the date it became a 'C' corporation.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income.

Based on the level of historical taxable losses and projections of future taxable income (losses) over the periods in which the deferred tax assets can be realized, management currently believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation allowance against the gross deferred tax assets as follows:


	September 30, 2010		December 31, 2009

Gross deferred tax assets	1,417,500		1,032,500
Valuation allowance	(1,417,500	)	(1,032,500	)
Net deferred tax asset	–		–

As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4,050,000 and $2,950,000, respectively. The federal net operating loss carryforwards expire in the tax years 2027 through 2030.

Federal tax laws impose significant restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits in the event of a change in ownership of the Company, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company's net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits may be subject to the above limitations.

The relevant FASB standard resulted in no adjustments to the Company's liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of both the date of adoption and as of September 30, 2010 there were no unrecognizable tax benefits. Accordingly, a tabular reconciliation from beginning to ending periods is not provided. The Company will classify any future interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense if incurred. To date, there have been no interest or penalties charged or accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits. The Company is subject to federal and state examinations for the year 2006 forward. There are no tax examinations currently in progress.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Organizational History

We were formed as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of New York on June 17, 2005 as "Vycor Medical LLC". On August 14, 2007, we converted into a Delaware corporation and changed our name to "Vycor Medical, Inc." ("Delaware Corporation"). Our sole reason for conversion to the Delaware Corporation was to facilitate the raising of additional capital, as prospective investors had expressed resistance to investing in the Company as the NY LLC. At August 14, 2007, we had approximately 1,122 membership units of the NY LLC issued and outstanding. The managing members of the NY LLC determined, in their reasonable business judgment, that such units, in the aggregate, should convert to an aggregate of 17,999,999 shares of common stock of the Delaware Corporation. On this basis, we adopted a conversion ratio of 16,048 shares of common stock of the Delaware Corporation for each former unit of the NY LLC. Likewise, all conversion rights, options, warrants and any other rights to acquire units of the NY LLC (including but not limited to units issuable pursuant to the terms of the Fountainhead Bridge Loan Debenture, Fountainhead Warrant to purchase 50.22 units of the NY LLC, the Company's Option Agreement with Fountainhead dated December 14, 2006), were converted to conversion rights, options, warrants and rights to acquire common shares of the Delaware Corporation, based on the same conversion ratio. The action authorizing the conversion was adopted by the unanimous consent of the Managing Members of the NY LLC pursuant to the terms of the NY LLC Operating Agreement.

Overview of Business

Vycor Medical Inc. is a medical device company headquartered in Bohemia, NY that designs, develops and markets medical devices for use in neurosurgery. The company is ISO 13485:2003 compliant, has U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for brain and spine surgeries, CE Marking for Europe and Canadian HPB licensing for sale in Canada of its brain retractors. The Company has developed its first product, the ViewSite Brain Access System (VBAS), a next generation brain retractor system. This is now commercialized and revenue generating. The VBAS addresses a market that has not changed materially in over 50 years in contrast to development in surgical technologies.

The second product in our pipeline is the Cervical Access System, which requires further prototyping and successful market testing and commercialization launch. Like the Brain Access System, this product is designed to assist the surgeon in cervical surgeries, allowing the surgeon to gain access to the anterior cervical surgery site.

We have received FDA 510(k) clearance for our products. Section 510(k) of the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act requires medical device manufacturers to register with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of their intent to market

a medical device at least 90 days in advance. The 510(k) submission allows the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to determine whether a device is generally equivalent to similar one already on the market. With the FDA 510(k) clearance, we are authorized to take our products to market in the U.S. without further approvals.

In addition to our existing products and products in development, we actively seek acquisition, joint venture and in-licensing opportunities which we believe will add shareholder value.

The VBAS series is used by neurosurgeons to access the surgical site in the brain. This is done by inserting the VBAS into the brain tissue and then removing the VBAS introducer, leaving the remaining hollow working channel in place to provide the surgeon with access to the precise location desired for surgery.

The VBAS is available in multiple sizes and is a single-use product. We intend to add additional models in the future.

We believe our Brain Access System offers several advantages over the brain retractor systems, commonly known as ribbon or blade retractors that are metallic. When designing the products, we felt that if we can incorporate certain features into our products, the surgeon reaction and acceptance would be favorable. We attempted to incorporate the following features:


	•			Gently separate delicate tissue by utilizing a tapered forward edge;
	•			Minimize venous pressure caused by pulling tissue in one direction in the brain;
	•			To allow direct surgical visualization of the brain tissue via optically transparent construction;
	•			Reduce "target shift" to allow the surgeon to reach the site accurately;
	•			Minimize healthy tissue damage while reaching the target site;
	•			Allow for accurate neuronavigational image guidance systems ("IGS") performance;
	•			Integrate in due course with the leading surgical IGS systems such as Medtronic® and BrainLab®, Stryker and GE;
	•			Improve surgical outcomes (reducing potential surgeon and hospital liability), for example, decreased insertion tissue trauma, less need for readjustment during surgery and minimum interface surface pressures;
	•			Reduce damage to healthy brain tissue potentially leading to shorter post-op recovery and reduced hospital stay

The extent to which we are successful in achieving the above objectives will be judged by the acceptance of the devices in the market.

The Brain Access System products have the potential to significantly reduce brain tissue trauma resulting from the currently used retractors and standard access procedures. First, the unique design of the product minimizes the size of the brain entry access necessary for surgical procedures, and in turn the amount of brain tissue exposed. For instance, a brain procedure involving the removal of a 7cm cystic astrocyctoma would result in an access site (corticotomy) of approximately 20mm. However, the same procedure that was performed utilizing the Company's Brain Access System product required a corticotomy of only 2mm.

Because our products are relatively new to the market, there is no guarantee that any of the above mentioned features would prove effective and be useful by the end user.

Product shortcomings

Our products have a few shortcomings:


	•			As compared to existing blade retractors our device diameter is fixed as opposed to variable which might give the surgeon less flexibility once he is at the desired location.
	•			The diameters and lengths of our devices are set to specific measurements, which may limit the surgeon to these specific sizes.
	•			Depending on the case, usage of a disposable product may be viewed as more costly and may not be accepted by our potential end users.

IGS Opportunity for the Brain Access System

The VBAS product has the potential to improve surgical use of IGS (Image Guidance Systems) employed in many surgeries, by addressing two substantial IGS-related problems of target shifting and the lack of real-time retractor positioning data during procedures:

• Target Shifting

The normal surgical procedure utilizing standard retractors in brain surgery require pulling away the healthy tissue to expose the targeted region of the brain located underneath. However, in many cases, the amount of pulling required causes the targeted area to shift away from what is shown on the IGS system. This target shifting then requires the surgeon to cause possible additional trauma to healthy tissue and spend additional time as the shifted target area is located and the retractor is repositioned. The VBAS system is designed to minimize or eliminate target shift, as the elliptical shape of the product distributes relatively uniform pressure on the surrounding brain tissue.

• Real-Time Retractor Positioning Data

Current retractor technology (commonly known as ribbon or blade retractors) is not well integrated with IGS systems. During insertion, the surgeon typically does not have real-time data to allow visualization of retractor insertion on the IGS monitor. The VBAS product line has the potential to adapt to IGS systems, such that the use of a Brain Access System unit will allow the surgeon to see on the surgical monitor, in real-time, exactly where the retractor is in relation to critical brain structures and underlying pathologies. With the IGS enabled unit, the tip of the introducer is literally the "pointer" on the IGS system.

Brain Access System Product Models

• TC-VBAS

The series consists of twelve disposable products, offered in four different port diameters of 17mm and 21mm, 12mm and 28 mm and a choice of three lengths for each of 3, 5, and 7cm.

Cervical Access Products

Subject to the raising of additional capital (which cannot be guaranteed), the Company will continue its preliminary work to design Cervical Access System products which would be used by the surgeon to access the anterior cervical surgical site (the uppermost vertebrae located in the neck). While the Company has filed certain intellectual property applications with respect to this technology, such development is in an early stage.

We plan to design the Cervical Access System to:


	•			reduce the possibility of surrounding anatomic tissue damage, which include the trachea, esophagus, carotid artery, recurrent laryngeal and sympathetic nerve;
	•			minimize skin disruption with the utilization of tapered outward edges;
	•			eliminate retractor induced electrocautery burn injuries because it is made with surgical grade plastic materials;
	•			enable stable fixation (directly to the spinal column) in order to avoid accidental displacement and surrounding "tissue creep" and
	•			allows for direct visualization of underlying anatomic structures using optically clear plastic.

Because the Cervical Access System products have not yet been brought to market, there is no guarantee that any of the abovementioned features would prove effective and even so, be welcomed by the end user. Further research and development is needed for a market-ready product.

New Products

Brain Retractors

Subject to the availability of additional financing, the Company's future plans include developing additional Brain Access System retractors that are designed for the requirements of specific surgical applications like aneurisms, tumors and endoscopic work.

Other

In addition to our existing products and products in development, we actively seek acquisition, joint venture and in-licensing opportunities which we believe will add shareholder value.

Additional Applications of Brain Access System and Cervical Access System Technology

We believe that our Brain Access System and Cervical Access System technology can be adapted to advance retractor systems for use in other areas of the body. We believe that the key cross-applicable benefits of our technology are:


	•			Promotes minimally invasive procedures from smallest possible entry incision
	•			Uniform pressure distribution minimizes collateral tissue damage due to stress points
	•			Eliminates "tissue creep" into the surgical field
	•			Reduces the number of materials in the surgical field

Sales and Marketing

We are implementing an educational and marketing strategy to promote product and brand awareness in our target markets including clinical papers and attending trade shows.

Domestic Sales Strategy

VBAS was launched in November 2008 with a strategy of driving sales through leading neurosurgeons. In this regard, the Company has adopted a dual strategy of targeting both the leading neurosurgeons and the leading neurosurgery hospitals. The Company believes that out of the 4,500 neurosurgeons in the US approximately 1,500 focus predominantly on craniotomies or cranial procedures that could potentially benefit from the VBAS product. Management believes that there are approximately 750-1,000 hospitals that represent the majority of its target market.

Teaching hospitals not only carry out more relevant procedures but also provide a natural way to drive adoption through the conversion of new surgeons. We focus our efforts initially on surgeons as the principle proponent within the hospital, and Vycor has found that the learning curve is only 1-2 cases for surgeons, who like the simplicity of design and ease of use. However, Hospital Administration is required to approve the purchase of a new product and in many cases even the provision of trial samples once a surgeon has expressed an interest in using the product. The focus for Hospital Administration is:

Clinical studies, papers and other peer reviews evidencing the clinical benefits of the product
Leading hospital adoption, leading surgeon adoption
Cost/benefit analysis
Product simplicity of use, need for training

Experience has been that approval process can take up to six months for each hospital, and in some cases may even be longer. However, this time reduces as more leading hospitals become approved and as more clinical paper/studies and other peer reviews are published.

We are currently using independent distributors who have existing relationships with neurosurgeons and target hospitals.

International Sales

In Canada, the company has an exclusive agreement with a distributor focused in neurosurgery. In Europe, the company has agreements with five exclusive distributors who are also focused in neurosurgery. In China, Vycor has entered into a distribution agreement, for its VBAS. The Company has filed for but not yet received SFDA approval, which is required to sell and market products in this country.

Reference Hospitals Program

The Company has developed a Reference Hospital Program to identify centers of excellence and to provide neurosurgeons with evidence of support for our products.

Manufacturing

We have executed agreements with Lacey Manufacturing Company of Bridgeport, Connecticut ("Lacey") and C&J Industries, Meadville PA ("C&J") to provide a full range of engineering, contract manufacturing and logistical support for our products.

Lacey and C&J are recognized leaders in the medical contract manufacturing sector, providing vertically integrated full services. They are U.S. Food and Drug Administration registered and meet ISO standards and certifications. Lacey and C&J have shipped orders to Vycor and have made production runs of all 12 sizes.

Market

The market for our Brain Access System product lines is the neurosurgical community. The Company has analyzed and estimated the market for its products from an analysis of available statistics, discussion with surgeons, distributors and other market participants. Vycor is currently focusing its attention for VBAS on the US, China and Europe.

Competition

Competitive manufacturers of brain retractors include:


	•			Cardinal Health (V. Mueller line)

Trademarks

VYCOR MEDICAL is a registered trademark and VIEWSITE is pending registration as a trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Insurance

We presently have Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance and Product Liability insurance.

Government Regulations

We are committed to an integrated total quality management system. We have completed the necessary procedures and are certified to the ISO standards expected of medical device manufacturers as follows:

ISO 13485:2003 Medical Devices — Quality Management Systems

The certification of a quality management system to ISO 13485, specifically for medical devices, is advantageous and often essential for medical companies to export their products to the global market, as well as maintain and enter into certain agreements and business growth opportunities within the U.S. For example, Canada requires that medical device manufacturers marketing their products in Canada must have a quality system certified to ISO 13485:2003. The certification is also required for placement of branded devices into the European Union.

In November 2009, we successfully passed our re-certification audit through Intertek. Recertification audits are required every 3 years while surveillance audits occur annually in between.

We have the following certification/licensing.

– Fully Quality Assurance System Directive 93/42/EEC for Medical Devices, Annex II (3)

– EC Design-Examination Certificate Directive 93/42/EEC for Medical Devices, Annex II (4)

– ISO 13485.2003

– HPB Licensing for Canada

Continuing Regulatory Requirements

Governmental regulation in the United States and other countries is a significant factor affecting the research and development, manufacture and marketing of medical devices, including our products. In the United States, the FDA has broad authority under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) to regulate the development, distribution, manufacture, marketing and sale of medical devices. Foreign sales of medical devices are subject to foreign governmental regulation and restrictions that vary from country to country.

Medical devices intended for human use in the United States are classified into one of three categories, depending upon the degree of regulatory control to which they will be subject. Such devices are classified by regulation into either Class I general controls, Class II special standards or Class III pre-market approval (PMA), depending upon the level of regulatory control required to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device.

Most Class I devices are exempt from pre-market notification (510(k)) or PMA. However Class I devices are subject to "general controls," including compliance with FDA manufacturing requirements (Quality System Regulation (QSR), sometimes referred to as current good manufacturing practices or CGMPs), adverse event reporting, labeling and other requirements. Class II devices are subject to general controls and to the pre-market notification requirements under Section 510(k) of the FD&C Act. For a 510(k) to be cleared by the FDA, the manufacturer must demonstrate to the FDA that a device is substantially equivalent to another legally marketed device that was either cleared through the 510(k) process or on the market prior to 1976. It generally takes four to twelve months from the date of submission to obtain 510(k) clearance although it may take longer. Class III is the most stringent regulatory category for devices. Class III devices are those for which insufficient information exists to assure safety and effectiveness solely through general or special controls. Class III devices are usually those that support or sustain human life, are of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health, or which present a potential, unreasonable risk of illness or injury. Class III devices also include devices that are not substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices. To obtain approval to market a Class III device, a manufacturer must obtain FDA approval of a PMA application. The PMA process requires more data, including ordinarily data from clinical studies testing the device in humans, takes longer and is typically a significantly more complex and expensive process than the 510(k) procedure. Clinical studies of devices in humans is also subject to regulation by the FDA. Testing must be conducted in compliance with the investigational device exemption (IDE) regulations.

According to the US FDA, our products have been classified as Class II products and cleared for marketing through the 510(k) process.

We can provide no assurance that we will be able to maintain and obtain clearances or approvals needed to introduce new products and technologies. After a device is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply. These include:


	•			quality system regulation, which requires manufacturers to follow design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during the manufacturing process;
	•			labeling regulations, which prohibit the promotion of products for unapproved or "off-label" uses and impose other restrictions on labeling; and
	•			medical device reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if it were to recur.

	Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement action by the FDA, which may include any of the following sanctions:

	•			fines, injunctions, and civil penalties;
	•			recall or seizure of our products;
	•			operating restrictions, partial suspension or total shutdown of production;
	•			Refusing a request for 510(k) clearance or premarket approval of new products;
	•			withdrawing 510(k) clearance or premarket approvals that are already granted; and criminal prosecution.

Medical device laws are also in effect in many of the countries outside of the United States in which we will do business. These laws range from comprehensive device approval and quality system requirements for some or all of our medical device products to simple requests for product data or certifications. The number and scope of these requirements are increasing. In June 1998, the European Union Medical Device Directive became effective, and all medical devices must meet the Medical Device Directive standards and receive CE mark certification. CE mark certification involves a comprehensive Quality System program, and submission of data on a product to the Notified Body in Europe.

We have obtained the CE marking approval to allow for distribution of our VBAS products in Europe and have received our HPB licensing approval for distribution in Canada.

Health Care Regulatory Issues

The health care industry is highly regulated and the regulatory environment in which we operate may change significantly in the future. In general, regulation of health care-related companies is increasing. We anticipate that Congress and state legislatures will continue to review and assess alternative health care delivery and payment systems. We cannot predict what impact the adoption of any federal or state health care reform measures may have on our business.

We regularly monitor developments in statutes and regulations relating to our business. We may be required to modify our agreements, operations, marketing and expansion strategies from time to time in response to changes in the statutory and regulatory environment. We plan to structure all of our agreements, operations, marketing and strategies in accordance with applicable law, although we can provide no assurance that our arrangements will not be challenged successfully or that required changes may not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We believe that the discussion above summarizes all of the material health care regulatory requirements to which we currently are subject. Complying with these regulatory requirements may involve expense to us, delay in our operations and/or restructuring of our business relationships. Violations could potentially result in the imposition of civil and/or criminal penalties.

Following the recapitalization transaction that closed on December 29, 2009 the board and management of Vycor has embarked on a period of heightened sales and marketing activity and engagement with distributors and hospital customers following a prolonged period of reduced activity in 2009 as a result of capital constraints. This has lead to an increase in the marketing-related costs of the Company. Vycor has also carried out a series of fundraisings since the closing of the recapitalization, which has resulted in additional cash and non-cash expenses.

The increases for the three months ended September 30, 2010 over the three months ended September 30, 2009 are attributable to an increased level of: sales and marketing activity; personnel costs; fundraising fees and related costs; and professional fees, as follows:


Total G&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009	$	159,158
Increase in marketing expenditure and travel costs		39,488

Warrant and Option Recognition Expense

Included within General and Administrative expenses above is a non-cash charge for share based compensation as the result of amortizing warrants and options which have been issued by the Company over various periods. The charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $109,324, an increase of $44,800 over the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense comprises: interest expense on the Company's debt; and the amortization of the Beneficial Conversion Feature (BCF) in the Company's convertible debt. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was reduced by $48,057 to $33,766 from $81,823 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as a result of debt reduction. The amortization of the BCF was $152,864 compared to $145,303.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2010 we had $44,142 cash, a working capital deficit of $518,404 and an accumulated deficit of $6,085,904 through September 30, 2010. The Stockholders' deficit at September 30, 2010 was $247,880, an improvement from $1,111,941 at December 31, 2009. Debt at September 30, 2010 was $496,215 a reduction from $1,111,053 in December 2009.

Our operating activities used $1,102,415 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Aside from the increased operating expenses discussed above, the Company has significantly reduced historic payables, from $336,942 in December 2009 to $77,191 in September 2010, and increased operating assets. This is accounted for as follows:


Net cash loss adjusted for change in accrued interest	$	851,314
Reduction in accounts payable		245,725
Increase in accounts receivable and inventory		45,166
Purchase of new molds not yet delivered		18,380

	$	1,102,415

Going Concern

Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit issued in connection with the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2009, relative to our ability to continue as a going concern. This means that there is substantial doubt that the company can continue as an ongoing business for the next 12 months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue our business. The company has incurred losses since inception, including net losses of $1,141,383 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $1,209,216 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and expects to incur substantial additional losses, including additional development

costs, costs related to clinical trials and manufacturing expenses. The company has incurred negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the company had an accumulated deficit of $6,085,904 and $4,876,688, respectively, and cash and cash equivalents balance of $44,142 and $12,771 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Since there is no record of profitable operations, there is high a possibility that you may suffer a complete loss of your investment. Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, there is substantial uncertainty we will continue operations in which case you could lose your investment. In these circumstances the Company believes it may not have enough cash to meet ongoing cash needs unless the Company is able to obtain additional cash from the issuance of debt or equity securities. There is no assurance that additional funds from the issuance of equity will be available for the Company to finance its operations on acceptable terms. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may have to delay development or commercialization of products or technologies that the Company would otherwise seek to commercialize, or cease operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Currently, the Company estimates depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and the fair values of options and warrants.

The most critical estimates that impact the financial position and results of operation of the company have to do with the methodologies and assumptions used in determining the fair value of various debt estimates. These include assumptions associated with warrants, options and stock issued in conjunction with such debt. Additionally, the Black-Scholes option pricing model and its related assumptions of volatility, risk free interest, stock price also significantly impacted share based compensation and the results of operations.

Research and Development

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments with original maturities of nine months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts approximate fair market value because of the short maturity. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company's accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

At September 30, 2010 and 2009, fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, convertible promissory notes, and options and warrants approximate their carrying amount due to the short period of time to maturity and various fair value model calculations.

Property and equipment

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.

Patents

The Company capitalizes legal and related costs associated with the establishment of patents for its products. Costs associated with the development of the patented item or process are charged to research and development costs as incurred. The costs associated with the establishment of the patents are amortized over the life of the patent.

The Company reviews existing patents as well as those in the approval process for impairment on an annual basis using a present value, cash flow method pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Since the Company's patents are either very new or still in the process of approval, the Company does not believe that any impairment of these amounts exists.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue at the time, pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13(a), that a completed contract for the sale exists, title transfers to the buyer and the product is invoiced and shipped to the customer. The Company intends to sell a surgical access system which has already cleared the U.S. FDA 510(k) review process. It has been granted a 510(k) number to market to hospitals and other medical professionals. The Company does not expect the need to provide for product returns or warrantee costs but will review such potential costs after the commencement of sales.
