Risk Factors – General
 
10. Please expand the risk factor section to include risk factors specifically addressing:
 
  
Your accountant’s going concern opinion;
  
Potential product liability claims; and
  
The lack of independent directors and related corporate governance issues and potential risks to shareholders.
 
Response:        The Registration Statement has been revised to include the risk factors requested.  Please see pages 6 and 10 of the Registration Statement.
 
11. We note you may be substantially dependent upon one or more third parties to conduct your research and clinical studies.  If you are, please add a risk factor to address this fact. Also, please file copies of these agreements as exhibits and discuss them in greater detail in your business section.  If you do not believe that you are substantially dependent upon these agreements, please provide an analysis supporting your determination.  See Item 601(b)(10)(ii)(B) of Regulation S-K.

Response:        The Company is not substantially dependent on any one particular third party to carry out its research and clinical studies, as it follows a standard outsourcing model which involves outsourcing a number of its key research and development activities.  It is not reliant on any one particular company to carry out all of its activities.  As such, we believe that the requested risk factor is not necessary.
 
“Our ability to continue as a going concern…,” page 4
 
Comment 12.   Please expand the discussion to quantify the amount of losses you have incurred in each of the past two years and the amount of your accumulated deficit.  In addition, please disclose that as of March 31, 2011, you only had $54 in cash.
 
Response:        The relevant risk factor has been revised in response to this comment.  Please see page 5 of the Registration Statement.
 
“Because we will need to finance our future cash needs through securities offerings…,” page 4
 
Comment 13.   We note your belief that “the net proceeds from our prior private equity offerings and existing cash will be sufficient to enable us to fund our projected operating requirements for the next twelve (12) months….” Please reconcile this statement with the fact that as of March 31, 2011 your available cash resources apparently consisted of $54 in cash and a receivable for $2608, and the statement at the bottom of page 14 “therefore, we do not have enough available cash to meet our obligations over the next 12 months.”  We may have additional comments.

“If we are unable to obtain sufficient and adequate supplies necessary for the manufacturing of our product…,” page 6
 
Comment 15.   It is unclear from the discussion whether there is, in fact, a sole source supplier for the components of your product.  If you are substantially dependent on any of your raw material or component suppliers, please identify them here and identify the products that are materially dependent on the raw materials or components.  Also, please file copies of these agreements as exhibits and discuss them in greater detail in your business section.  If you do not believe you are substantially dependent upon these agreements, please provide an analysis supporting your determination.  See Item 601(b)(10)(ii)(B) of Regulation S-K.
 
Response:        The Company is of the opinion that it is not reliant on any sole supplier for its key components of its lead formulation.  Such determination is based on the fact that the raw materials it requires are readily available from a variety of suppliers.  In order to minimize any potential risk, the Company intends to source its key components from at least two suppliers at any given time.
 
 “If we lose key management or scientific personnel…,” page 8
 
Comment 16.    Please expand the discussion to state the extent to which you have employment agreements with your key personnel.  If applicable, please file these employment agreements as exhibits.

Use of Proceeds, page 11
 
Comment 17.   Please revise the disclosure to indicate the order of priority and the amount allocated for each specified purpose and discuss your plans if substantially less than the maximum amount of proceeds is obtained.  The disclosure should quantify the amount to be used for each purpose at different levels of offering proceeds.  For example, disclose how proceeds will be allocated if 100%, 50%, 25%, and 10% of the total maximum amount of proceeds are received.

Response:        The Use of Proceeds section of the Registration Statement has been revised to include the disclosure requested.  Please see page 13 of the Registration Statement.

Revenue, page 13
 
Comment 23.    Please expand the discussion to explain the significance, if any, of your supply of unlicensed medicine to treat patients at the Dove Clinic, including potential legal and liability ramifications, if any.
 
Response:        The Registration Statement has been revised to state that the Company’s management believes that there will be no ramifications from the supply of unlicensed medicine to the Dove Clinic.  In the United Kingdom, an unlicensed relevant medicinal product may only be supplied in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 1 of the The Medicines for Human Use (Marketing Authorisations) Regulations 1994 [SI 1994/3144], (the MA Regs.).   Schedule 1 exempts relevant medicinal product which is supplied to fill a "special need"  from the need for a marketing authorization, provided that such supply is in response to a bona fide unsolicited order, formulated in accordance with the specification of a doctor, dentist or supplementary prescriber and for use by his individual patients on his direct responsibility.  The supply of the unlicensed medicine to the Dove Clinic was in compliance with Schedule 1.  Please see page 16 of the Registration Statement.
 
Comment 24.   Since Dr. Kenyon is the Medical Director of the Dove Clinic, please tell us why you did not sell the medicine directly to the Dove Clinic.

Response:        The Company did not sell the medicine directly to The Dove Clinic Limited because the Company was formed after supply of the medicine was undertaken by the Dove Clinic.  The supply of the unlicensed medicine to patients continued over a period of eighteen months.  During this period, the Company was formed on the basis that it would develop and commercialize the technology based on the clinic results observed by Dr. Kenyon at the Dove Clinic after treating a number of advanced cancer patients in his clinic under the UK Specials License Scheme.

Business
Overview, page 16
 
Comment 27.   The overview presentation should be balanced.  Since you are in the very early stages of drug development, please temper your positive conclusions with the fact that substantial additional testing will be required.  The discussion should be expanded to disclose the types of additional tests you will need to conduct and that early results obtained may not be replicated in later and larger trials. In addition, your positive conclusions should be modified by either expressing them as a hope that additional testing will confirm any of the positive results you describe or, alternatively, delete the conclusions.

If applicable, please expand the discussion to clarify whether and how development of Propanc as a primary treatment instead of a follow up treatment will impact the timing and cost of obtaining required regulatory approval.

Response:       Jersey Fortress Capital Partners was engaged in order to assist the Company in getting its securities listed via a reverse merger.  However, after several meetings and discussions held by the Company’s management, it was decided that the Company should change course and opted to file the Registration on Form S-1.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1 – Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Australian Goods and Services Tax, page F-9
 
Comment 81.    You state here that “…assets are recognized net of the amount of GST.”  However, you continue to state that “[r]eceivables and payables in the balance sheets are shown inclusive of GST.”  Please revise your disclosure to clarify whether GST is included or excluded from your balance sheet items.  To the extent it is included, please identify the line item and the amounts that are included.

Response:       The Company believes the disclosure on page F-9 adequately describes the Company's accounting policy for its GST.  However, the Company intends to indicate in its future filings that "Revenues, expenses and Balance Sheet items are recognized net of GST except Payables and Receivables which are inclusive of GST" in order to further clarify the disclosure contained in its future financial statements.

Note 8- Stockholders’ Equity, page F-18
 
Comment 82.   You state that based on an immaterial difference in the conversion formula, the director shares were converted at other prices immaterially different from the stipulated conversion price.  Please tell us why you believe the difference is immaterial.  Provide us an analysis of the conversion of the loans and accrued interest based on the correct formula vs. the conversion price used and clarify to us why you believe the difference is immaterial.  Your analysis should disclose how many shares would have been issued had the correct conversion formula been used. Consider the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin 99.

Response:  The transaction details were as follows:
 
Julian Kenyon    - Conversion rate was 0.18313576 - Per contract 0.18 Shares issued = 61,066  Should have been = 62,130
     
James Nathanielsz   - Conversion rate was 0.183125615 - Per contract 0.18 Shares issued = 59,939   Should have been = 60,979
     
Doug Mitchell    - Conversion rate was 0.183113243 - Per contract 0.18 Shares issued = 3,184,614  Should have been = 3,239,694
 
Total share difference was 57,185 shares valued at $0.16 and equates to $9,252 charged to additional paid in capital due to the related party nature of the conversions.

Each related party member agreed, in writing, on a conversion deed, to the final share quantity and amount converted.

The reference to immaterial difference in the conversion formula was meant to explain to the reader the reason for the charge to APIC since, had the conversion occurred as stated in the agreement, no charge to APIC (gain or loss if not a related party transaction) would have occurred.  SAB 99 need not be considered as the difference of $9,252 was recorded and there is no further obligation to the shareholders.

The Company will amend future filings to further clarify, stating, "Based on written agreement with the debt holders, there is no further obligation to those shareholders."

Note 12- Subsequent Events, page F-21
 
Comment 83.   You state that you entered an agreement in June 2011 to issue 7,216, 365 shares to a third party consultant upon a registration statement being filed and that those shares would be initially valued based on the value at the agreement date with changes in fair value recorded at each period until the vesting date.  Since it appears that the quantity and terms of the equity instruments are known up front pursuant to ASC 505-50-30-21, it appears that the final measurement value upon filing the registration statement is based on the IPO price of $1.50.  Please revise to disclose the expected effect on the financial statements.
 
Response:       The company reviewed various accounting and valuation literature in deriving its position on this topic.  The literature includes, but is not limited to, SAB Topic 4(d), ASC 505-50 and the AICPA Audit and Accounting Practice Aid Series: Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, referred herein as "The Guide". The Company believes it has properly disclosed the accounting effects of the transaction in relation to how the financial statements will be effected.  The Company elected not to disclose the value of the shares, but rather only the obligation that the Company was under to issue the shares along with the financial statement accounting effect, as the Company believes the measurement date had not been reached when the auditors report dated June 22, 2011 was issued. Further, the Company believes disclosing the $1.50 value of the shares, at that time, would have been misleading to the reader as the IPO price is not finalized until the registration statement is effective which it was not upon the S-1 filing on June 23, 2011 (See the Guide, Chapter 9, paragraphs 112 and 113).
 
Regarding the $1.50 valuation of the shares issued for services in June 2011, the Company is of the position that the share issuance should be valued at $0.16 as opposed to the anticipated $1.50 IPO price.  It should be noted that the last sale of the Company's common stock occurred late October 2010 at $0.16 per share.   The Company reviewed the above stated literature when considering the June 8, 2011 share issuance for services and concluded that intervening events occurred prior to the $1.50 estimated IPO price and initial filing of the registration statement (See the Guide Chapter 9, paragraph 113).  The 7,216,365 shares were originally to be issued to Churchill & Associates ("C&A") per an agreement dated August 3, 2010 (3,333,333 upon entering the contract and the remainder upon  the Company filing a Registration Statement) which has been filed as an exhibit to this registration statement.  The Company initially recorded the 3,333,333 shares it was obligated to issue C&A at $0.16 and recorded a prepaid which was being amortized to expense over the one-year term of the August 2010 contract.   Based on events out of the Company's control, this agreement was terminated, as such, the Company removed the remaining unamortized prepaid and related stock issuance to C&A, and the Company entered into an agreement with Jersey Fortress Capital Partners ("Jersey") to continue the Company's efforts of filing a Registration Statement.  It was agreed upon by all parties that the shares that were previously to be issued to C&A, would now be granted to Jersey per the terms of June 2011 agreement which is attached as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. At the time the Company entered into the C&A and also the Jersey agreement and based on historical results, the Company's best estimate of fair value, based on the best information available at the time, was $0.16. The Company's belief is that the $1,154,618 valuation for services based on $0.16 per share is a more accurate reflection of the transaction and its related valuation as opposed to $10,824,548 based on the per share amount of $1.50.  Had a different approach been contemplated, the share quantity would have been drastically reduced.  Value added activities and intervening events have occurred throughout 2010 and 2011 that have added to the $1.50 IPO price none of which was more substantial than the Registration Statement and the IPO itself.
