PROSPECTUS
SUMMARY
This
summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus.
This summary does not contain all the information that a person should consider
before investing in the Company’s securities. A potential investor should
carefully read the entire Prospectus, including ‘‘Risk Factors’’ and the
Consolidated Financial Statements, before making an investment
decision.
Officers
of the Company are included as Selling Holders hereunder whose shares of Common
Stock are being sold pursuant to this Prospectus. (See "Selling
Holders",
below.)
The
Company
Background
AII
is
engaged in the business of providing solutions for managing the on-site disposal
of medical waste to owners and operators of hospitals that incorporate the
design, installation and servicing of systems to treat infectious, regulated
medical waste (‘‘RMW’’). These are ‘‘turnkey’’ systems, meaning that they have
been designed and installed complete and ready to operate by the customer.
The
business is carried on through AII’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Aduromed
Corporation (‘‘Aduromed’’)
The
principal business offices of both AII and Aduromed are located at 3 Trowbridge
Drive, Bethel, Connecticut 06801, and their telephone number at that address
is
(203) 798-1080. (See ‘‘Description of Properties’’ below.)
History
Effective
January 30, 2007, the Company changed its corporate name from General Devices,
Inc. to Aduromed Industries, Inc. Effective January 23, 2006, the Company merged
(the “Merger”) with Aduromed, whereby Aduromed became the wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company and the former holders of the equity in Aduromed
became holders of equity in AII. Aduromed is the Company’s sole operating
entity.
During
the past three years, until the consummation of the Merger, AII had no material
assets.
Aduromed
was formed in 1997 as a Connecticut limited liability company by Mr. Damien
R.
Tanaka and two investors/members under the name ‘‘Automated Process LLC.’’ In
September, 2002, (i) the two investors/members withdrew as members, (ii)
Aduromed was reorganized as a Delaware corporation, changing its name to
‘‘Aduromed Corporation’’, and (iii) several third parties invested funds in
Aduromed to become minority shareholders, warrant holders and
creditors.
Aduromed’s
Business.
The
principal product of Aduromed is its on-site system (‘‘MedClean® System’’ or
‘‘System’’) to convert RMW into municipal solid waste (MSW). The disposal of
both RMW and MSW is generally regulated on the state and local levels. RMW
is
solid non-hazardous waste generated in connection with the diagnosis, treatment
or immunization of human beings or animals, in research pertaining thereto,
or
in the production of testing of biologicals, and includes bandages and other
materials containing potentially infectious bodily fluids, culture dishes and
other glassware, discarded surgical gloves and surgical instruments, ‘‘sharps’
(e.g. needles), cultures, stocks, swabs and lancets .
The
System is comprised of integrated equipment installed at the generator’s medical
facility (i.e. an ‘‘on-site’’ or ‘‘in-situ’’
installation),
and is comprised of (i) an autoclave vessel to sterilize the material, (ii)
a
shredding device to convert the material into unrecognizable confetti-like
material and (iii) its Auto-Touch™ proprietary control panel. Ancillary
equipment include Quiet Carts™ with disposable plastic liners used for
intramural collection of the RMW at points of generation within the medical
facility, the containerization of the waste during the autoclave sterilization
process and the mechanical dumping of the waste into the shredding device.
The
System is automated to minimize personnel contact with the material and to
assure regulatory compliance in the conversion process. (See
‘‘Business
of the Companies - Products’’
below.)
Aduromed’s
consumable supplies, sold periodically to customers, include the liners for
the
Quiet Carts™, cutting blades for the shredder and supplies such as deodorizers
and paper print rolls for use with the autoclaves and control panels. (See
‘‘Business
of the Companies - Products’’
below.)

RISK
FACTORS
The
shares of our Common Stock and Preferred Warrants being offered for resale
by
the selling holders are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree
of
risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose the entire
amount invested therein. Before purchasing any of these securities, you should
carefully consider the following factors relating to our business and prospects.
If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition
or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case,
the
trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part
of
your investment.
Business
Risks
We
have a history of losses
To
date,
we have been unable to generate revenue sufficient to be profitable. Aduromed
had a net loss of $(3,282,311), or $(0.18) per share, for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to a net loss of $(2,394,270), or $(0.13) per share,
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The Company might not achieve
the
level of revenues needed to be profitable in the future or, if profitability
is
achieved, that it will be sustained.
The
Company lacks an operating history making evaluation of its business
difficult.
While
Aduromed's revenues during the past eight years have been exclusively derived
from sales and servicing of its MedClean Systems, it's business is at an early
stage of commercialization, and there is no meaningful historical financial
or
other information available upon which to base an evaluation of the Company's
ability to increase its revenues in accordance with its projections or to
compete effectively with those persons with similar or alternate
systems.
In
addition, the Company's early stage of commercialization means that it has
less
insight into how market and technology trends may affect the Aduromed Business.
This includes the ability to attract and convince customers to switch from
their
current method of dealing with the disposal of their medical waste to Aduromed's
technology. As a consequence, the revenue and income potential of the Aduromed
Business is unproven.
Dependence
on third party component suppliers
The
Company is dependent on third party suppliers for the supply of components
of
its MedClean units. At present, the Company relies on a contract with Weima
to
supply parts for the shredder portion of the system. (See "Weima Agreement").
These parts are manufactured under the protection of a U.S. patent owned by
an
affiliate of Weima. The contract with Weima may be terminated on thirty (30)
days notice. The Company might not have adequate supplies of materials for
these
parts if the contract with Weima is terminated. Although the Company believes
that the required components are available and can be provided by other
suppliers, delays may be incurred in establishing relationships or in waiting
for quality control assurance with other manufacturers for substitute
components.
The
Company may not be able to effectively protect its proprietary technology,
which
could have a material adverse effect on its business and make it easier for
its
competitors to duplicate its products.
The
Company regards certain aspects of its products, processes, services and
technology as proprietary. With respect to two of its trademarks, Aduromed
and
MedClean the Company has applied to the United States Patent and Trademark
Office to register these marks. The Company does not intend to register any
other trademarks that it currently uses in the Aduromed Business but believes
that it has the rights to the AutoTouch and QuietCart marks. The Company does
not have nor does it intend to apply for patent protection with respect to
the
processes and technology encompassed by its present Systems (but see
"Development of MedClean 30 and MedClean 50 Systems" below) The Company requires
all of its employees to sign Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreements
that
prohibit the dissemination or use the Company's know-how and technology other
than in the legitimate performance of the employee's duties. Our ability to
compete successfully will depend in part on our ability to protect our
proprietary rights and to operate without infringing on the proprietary right
of
others, both in the United States and abroad. The Company may apply in the
future for patent protection for uses, processes, products and systems that
it
develops. Any future patent for which the Company applies may not be issued;
any
existing contractual non-disclosures obligations may be challenged, invalidated
or circumvented; third parties might infringe or misappropriate our proprietary
rights; and third parties might independently develop similar products, services
and technology. The Company may incur substantial costs in asserting or
defending any breach of contract or infringement suits or in asserting any
license rights, including those granted by third parties, the expenditure of
which the Company might not be able to afford. An adverse determination could
subject the Company to significant liabilities to third parties, require it
to
seek licenses from or pay royalties to third parties or require it to develop
appropriate alternative technology. Such licenses might not be available on
acceptable terms or at all, and the Company might not develop alternate
technology at an acceptable price or at all. Any of these events could have
a
material adverse effect on the Company's business and
profitability.
The
Company may have to resort to litigation to enforce its intellectual property
rights, protect its trade secrets, determine the validity and scope of the
proprietary rights of others, or defend itself from claims of infringement,
invalidity or unenforceability. Litigation may be expensive and divert resources
even if the Company wins. This could adversely affect the Aduromed Business,
financial condition and operating results such that it could cause the Company
to reduce or cease operations.
The
Company may not be able to develop new products that achieve market
acceptance.
Our
future growth and profitability depend, in part, on our ability to respond
to
technological advances and to successfully develop and market new products
that
achieve market acceptance. This industry has been historically marked by very
rapid technological change and the frequent introduction of new products. While
we have been engaged in development of equipment suitable for on-site treatment
of RMW by small quantity generators (such as doctors' offices and clinics),
we
might not be able develop new products that will realize broad market
acceptance. (See "The Company; Development of Medclean 30 and 50 Systems"
below.)
The
Company's existing products may not be able in the future to meet changes in
environmental laws and regulations regarding regulated medical
waste.
The
future of our business will depend on our ability to respond to any future
changes in the federal, state and local regulatory environment. Since the
Company does not itself generate medical waste and is not itself in control
of,
nor does it handle, the medical waste but only sells its equipment to meet
its
contractual obligations to its customers, it is not itself currently subject
to
regulations with respect to the disposal of RMW; however, any change in this
regulatory regime in the future could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations.
The
nature of our business exposes us to professional and product liability claims,
which could materially adversely impact our business and
profitability.
The
malfunction or misuse of our MedClean Systems may result in damage or injury
to
property or persons, as well as violation of various health and safety
regulations, thereby subjecting us to possible liability. Although our insurance
coverage is in amounts and deductibles we believe prudent in our business,
and
we have not experienced any claims made or lawsuits instituted against us with
regard to any such damage or violations, such insurance might not be sufficient
to cover any potential liability. Further, in the event of either adverse claim
experience or insurance industry trends, we may in the future have difficulty
in
obtaining product liability insurance or be forced to pay very high premiums,
and our present coverage might not continue to be available on commercially
reasonable terms or at all. In addition, insurance might not adequately cover
any product liability claim against us. However, we do believe our insurance
coverage is adequate to cover any claims made, and we review our insurance
requirement with our insurance broker at least annually.
Other
parties may assert that our technology infringes on their intellectual property
rights, which could divert management time and resources and possibly force
us
to redesign our products.
Developing
products based upon new technologies can result in litigation based on
allegations of patent and other intellectual property infringement. While no
infringement claims have been made or threatened against us, third parties
might
assert infringement claims against us in the future, and such assertions by
such
parties might result in costly litigation in which they might prevail. In
addition, we may not be able to license any valid and infringed patents from
third parties on commercially reasonable terms or, alternatively, be able to
redesign products on a cost-effective basis to avoid infringement. Any
infringement claim or other litigation against or by us could have a material
adverse effect on us and could cause us to reduce or cease operations, and
even
if we are successful in a litigation to defend such claim, there may be adverse
effects due to the significant expenses related to defending the
litigation.
The
loss of certain members of our management team could adversely affect our
business.
Our
success is highly dependent on the continued efforts of Damien R. Tanaka and
Kevin Dunphy, who are our key management persons. Should operations expand,
we
will need to hire persons with a variety of skills and competition for these
skilled individuals could be intense. Neither Mr. Tanaka nor Mr. Dunphy plan
to
retire or leave us in the near future. However, we may not be successful in
attracting and/or retaining key personnel in the future. Our failure to do
so
could adversely affect our business and financial condition. We have employment
agreements with all of our management personnel but we do not carry any
"key-man" insurance on the lives of any of our officers or
employees.
Dependence
on principal customer.
We
have
one principal customer, Aramark Management Services Partnership (see "Aramark
Agreement," below) Revenues for this customer amounted to approximately
$1,722,000 and $1,203,000 for the 2006 and 2005 fiscal year, respectively.
The
loss of our principal customer would have a significant adverse impact on our
business. We have no operations outside the United States and the Commonwealth
of Puerto Rico.
Competition.
There
are
numerous methods of handling and disposing of RMW, of which our technology
is
one of the available systems. We are not aware of any competitive product that
is similar to the MedClean Systems with respect to its design, compactness
and
customer-friendly use. We believe that our MedClean Systems, due to their
ability to be used on-site, competitive costing and ease of use, offer a
significant advantage over RMW systems offered by our competitors. Nevertheless,
a different or new technology may supplant us in the market. Further, we might
not be successful in the deployment of our systems in the marketplace, and
other
companies predominate in the waste removal business, with substantially greater
resources and market visibility than us, may try to develop similar
systems.
Control
by holders of Series A and B Preferred Stock.
The
Investors Group (see "Selling Holders") beneficially owns all of the Company's
Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, all of which are
convertible into an equal number of shares of the Company's Common Stock. These
shares of Preferred Stock have the same voting rights as the Common Stock.
In
addition, the Investors Group also has warrants related to the two series of
Preferred Stock that can be converted into the Company's Common Stock. If all
of
these shares were converted and the related warrants exercised, the Investors
Group would collectively own approximately 53% of the Common Stock on a
fully-diluted basis. The holders of the Preferred Stock and Mr. Damien R. Tanaka
are parties to a Stockholders' Agreement (see "Stockholders Agreement" below)
by
which Mr. Tanaka is entitled to elect a majority of the board of directors;
however, in most other matters submitted to the stockholders of the Company,
the
holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock, if such holders were to vote
in
the same manner, may determine the resolution of matters to be acted upon by
stockholders. The interests of the Investors Group may conflict with the
interests of the holders of the Company's Common Stock.
Market
Risks
There
is only a volatile limited market for our Common
Stock.
Recent
history relating to the market prices of public companies indicates that, from
time to time, there may be periods of extreme volatility in the market price
of
our securities because of factors unrelated to the operating performance of,
or
announcements concerning, the issuers of the affected stock, and especially
for
stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. Our Common Stock is not actively traded,
and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock have fluctuated significantly.
Since January 1, 2005 (after giving effect to a 1:5 reverse split of the Common
Stock in November, 2005), the Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board
from
a high bid of $1.75 to a low of $0.30 per share. See "Market for our Common
Stock." General market price declines, market volatility, especially for low
priced securities, or factors related to the general economy or to us in the
future could adversely affect the price of the common stock. With the low price
of our Common Stock, any securities placement by us would be very dilutive
to
existing stockholders, thereby limiting the nature of future equity
placements.
We
have never paid dividends and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the
future.
We
do not
believe that we will pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the future.
We have never declared any cash dividends on our common stock, and if we were
to
become profitable, it would be expected that all of such earnings would be
retained to support our business. In addition, cumulative dividends are payable
on the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock before any dividends may be paid
on
the Common Stock. Since we have no plan to pay cash dividends, an investor
would
only realize income from his investment in our shares if there is a rise in
the
market price of our Common Stock, which is uncertain and
unpredictable.
We
are subject to penny stock regulations and
restrictions.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has adopted regulations which
generally define Penny Stocks to be an equity security that has a market price
less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share,
subject to certain exemptions. As of March 30, 2007, the closing bid and asked
prices for our Common Stock were $0.20 and $0.24 per share and therefore, it
is
designated a "Penny Stock." As a Penny Stock, our Common Stock may become
subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("Exchange Act"), or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales
practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons
other than established customers and "accredited investors" (generally,
individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding
$200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered
by
Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for
the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the
transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of
broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers
to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.
For
any
transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery,
prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared
by
the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to
be
made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally,
monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information
for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market
in
penny stock.
Our
Common Stock might not qualify for exemption from the penny stock restrictions.
In any event, even if our Common Stock were exempt from the Penny Stock
restrictions, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act,
which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating
in a
distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would
be
in the
public interest.
Certain
provisions of our charter could discourage potential acquisition proposals
or
change in control.
Our
Board
of Directors, without further stockholder approval, may issue preferred stock
that would contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control or which may prevent or frustrate any attempt
by
stockholders to replace or remove the current management. The issuance of
additional shares of preferred stock could also adversely affect the voting
power of the holders of Common Stock, including the loss of voting control
to
others.
INFORMATION
IN PROSPECTUS
AII
has
not authorized anyone to give any information or make any representation about
the offering that differs from, or adds to, the information in this Prospectus
or the documents that are publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Therefore, if anyone does give you different or additional
information, you should not rely on it. The delivery of this Prospectus does
not
mean that there have not been any changes in AII’s condition since the date of
this Prospectus. If you are in a jurisdiction where it is unlawful to offer
to
purchase or exercise the securities offered by this Prospectus, or if you are
a
person to whom it is unlawful to direct such activities, then the offer
presented by this Prospectus does not extend to you. This Prospectus speaks
only
as of its date except where it indicates that other dates apply. The information
in this Prospectus may not be complete and may be changed. The holders may
not
exercise these securities until the registration statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This Prospectus is not an
offer
to purchase or exercise securities and it is not soliciting an offer to purchase
or exercise these securities in any state where the purchase or exercise is not
permitted.
Unless
otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, references in this
Prospectus to ‘‘AII’’, ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘our’’ and ‘‘us’’ or the ‘‘Company’’ refer to
AII and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aduromed Corporation, on a consolidated
basis. Aduromed Corporation is sometimes referred to separately in this
Prospectus as ‘‘Aduromed’’.
FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS
Information
included or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus may contain
forward-looking statements. This information may involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results,
performance or achievements to be materially different from the future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe
our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by
use
of the words ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’
‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘intend’’ or ‘‘project’’ or the negative of these words or other
variations on these words or comparable terminology.
This
Prospectus contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding,
among other things, (a) our projected sales and profitability, (b) our
technology, (c) our manufacturing, (d) the regulations to which we are subject,
(e) anticipated trends in our industry and (f) our needs for working capital.
These statements may be found under ‘‘Management's Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operations’’ and ‘‘Business,’’ as well as in this Prospectus generally.
Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, without
limitation, the risks outlined under ‘‘Risk Factors’’ and matters described in
this Prospectus generally. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there
can
be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus
will in fact occur.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We
will
not receive any portion of the proceeds from the sale of Common Stock by the
selling stockholders. We would receive proceeds of up to $11,803,714.03 if
all
the existing warrants and options were to be exercised. Management currently
anticipates that any such proceeds will be utilized for working capital and
other general corporate purposes. We cannot estimate how many, if any, and
when
warrants and options may be exercised as a result of this offering or
otherwise.
We
are
obligated to bear the expenses of the registration of the shares. We anticipate
that these expenses will be approximately $268,500.
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
The
Selling Holders (See ‘‘Selling Holders’’ below) may, from time to time, offer
and sell the shares of Common Stock and the Series A and Series B Preferred
Warrants included in this Prospectus on any stock exchange, market or trading
facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions.
Alternatively, the Selling Holders may exercise these Warrants pursuant to
an
exemption from registration if one is available at the time, and offer and
sell
the underlying shares and any unexercised Warrants under this Prospectus. Once
exercised, the shares of Common Stock underlying the Common Stock warrants
may
be sold pursuant to the terms of this Prospectus. The term ‘‘Selling Holders’’
includes pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest selling
shares that they acquired after the date of this Prospectus from the Selling
Holders as a pledge, gift or other non-sale related transfer. To the extent
required, we may amend and supplement this Prospectus from time to time to
describe a specific plan of distribution.
Each
Selling Holder may make these sales at prevailing market prices or at other
negotiated prices. The Selling Holders may use any one or more of the following
methods when selling securities covered by this Prospectus:
|
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer
for its
own account pursuant to this
Prospectus;
|
|
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits
purchasers;
|
|
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
|
|
|
·
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
|
|
·
|
in
privately negotiated transactions;
and
|
|
|
·
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the Selling Holders to sell a specified number of
such
shares at a stipulated price per
share;
|
|
|
·
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale;
and
|
|
|
·
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable
law.
|
In
connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the Selling Holders
may:
|
|
·
|
enter
into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares
in the
course of hedging the positions they
assume;
|
|
|
·
|
sell
the shares short and redeliver the shares to close out such short
positions;
|
|
|
·
|
enter
into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities
which
require the delivery to them of shares that this Prospectus offers,
which
the broker-dealer or financial institution may in turn resell pursuant
to
this Prospectus; and
|
|
|
·
|
pledge
shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, which,
upon a
default, the broker-dealer or financial institution may in turn resell
pursuant to this Prospectus.
|
In
addition, the Selling Holders may sell any shares that qualify for sale pursuant
to Rule 144, rather than pursuant to this Prospectus. However, AII's
"promoters" and their "affiliates" and their transferees, within the meaning
of
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") both before and after the Merger are
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Act. Regardless of technical compliance
with Rule 144 under the Act, because AII was a "shell" prior to the Merger,
Rule
144 will be unavailable to its promoters and affiliates. Halter Capital, Inc.
and Kevin Halter, Jr. would be considered to be such "promoters" or
affiliates".
In
effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents that the Selling Holders engage may
arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may
receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the Selling Holders, in
amounts that the parties may negotiate immediately prior to the sale. However,
under the NASD rules and regulations, such broker-dealers may not receive a
commission or discount in excess of 8% for the sale of any securities registered
hereunder.
In
offering securities that this Prospectus covers, the Selling Holders, and any
broker-dealers and any other participating broker-dealers who execute sales
for
the Selling Holders, may qualify as ‘‘underwriters’’ within the meaning of the
Securities Act in connection with these sales. Any profits that the Selling
Holders realize, and the compensation that they pay to any broker-dealer, may
qualify as underwriting discounts and commissions.
In
order
to comply with the securities laws of some states, the Selling Holders must
sell
the shares in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or
dealers. In addition, in some states the Selling Holders must sell the shares
only if we have registered or qualified those shares for sale in the applicable
state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is
available and the Selling Holder complies with the exemption.
We
have
advised the Selling Holders that the anti-manipulation rules of
Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the
market and to the activities of the Selling Holders and their affiliates. In
addition, we will make copies of this Prospectus available to the Selling
Holders for the purpose of satisfying the Prospectus delivery requirements
of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ‘‘Securities Act’’). The Selling
Holders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions
involving the sale of the shares against liabilities, including liabilities
arising under the Securities Act.
Upon
the
Company being notified in writing by a Selling Holder that any material
arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Common
Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or
secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to
this
Prospectus will be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act,
disclosing:
|
|
·
|
the
number of shares that the Selling Holder is
offering;
|
|
|
·
|
the
terms of the offering, including the name of the Selling Holder and
any
underwriter, dealer or agent;
|
|
|
·
|
the
purchase price paid by any participating broker-dealer or
underwriter;
|
|
|
·
|
any
discount, commission and other broker-dealer or underwriter
compensation;
|
|
|
·
|
any
discount, commission or concession allowed or reallowed or paid to
any
dealer;
|
|
|
·
|
the
proposed selling price to the
public;
|
|
|
·
|
that
such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify
the
information set out or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus;
and
|
|
|
·
|
other
facts material to the transaction.
|
The
Selling Holders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in
some or all of the shares of Common Stock owned by them and, if they default
in
the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties
may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this
Prospectus, or under an amendment to this Prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or
other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling
stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest
as selling stockholders under this Prospectus. In addition, upon the Company
being notified in writing by a Selling Holder that a donee or pledge intends
to
sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this Prospectus
will
be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities
law.
We
are
required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the
registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Holders
against claims and losses due to material misstatements or omissions made by
us
(and not by the Selling Holders) in this Prospectus. Each of the Selling Holders
has agreed to indemnify us against claims and losses due to material
misstatements or omissions made by them.
LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
The
Company has no pending legal proceedings. From time to time, it may be involved
in various claims, lawsuits or disputes with third parties, and actions
involving allegations of breach of contract incidental to the normal business
operations of the Aduromed Business.

individuals and entities who beneficially own shares of Common Stock, options
or
warrants received upon the Merger in exchange for their shares of common stock,
options or warrants of Aduromed, (ii) members of the Preferred Holders that
beneficially own Series A and B Preferred shares that are convertible into
Common Stock; (iii) members of the Preferred Holders who beneficially own
Investor Warrants, and (iv) individuals and entities that beneficially own
Placement Agent’s Warrants.
The
following table sets forth, as of March 30, 2007 information with regard to
the
ownership of our Common Stock, options, warrants, Series A and B Preferred
Stock, Investor Warrants, and Placement Agent Warrants, of each of the Selling
Holders. The term ‘‘Selling Holders’’ includes the holders listed below and
their respective transferees, assignees, pledges, donees and other
successors.
There
are
no compensation fees payable under financing agreements with selling holders,
including future transactions.
Because
the Selling Holders may offer all, some or none of their Common Stock, no
definitive estimate as to the number of shares thereof that will be held by
the
Selling Holders after such offering can be provided and the following table
has
been prepared on the assumption that all securities offered under this

The

Restated Stockholders Agreement (‘‘Stockholders Agreement’’) dated as of January
23, 2006 by the terms of which the Stockholders and the Preferred Holders have
agreed to a provision that, of the seven members on the Board of Directors
of
the Company, the Preferred Holders and the Stockholders will cause five to
be
nominees of Damien R. Tanaka, and two will be the nominees of the Preferred
Holders.
On
January 20, 2006, the Company and Aduromed entered into a registration rights
agreement with those entities comprising Investors Group (the ‘‘Purchasers’’),
amending and restating a previous agreement between Aduromed and those entities
(the ‘‘Registration Rights Agreement’’).
Piggyback

Act

Registrable Securities to registration statements, each Purchaser would be
also
entitled under the Registration Rights Agreement, for a period continuing until
the earlier of January 19, 2011, and the date upon which such Purchaser shall
have sold all its Registrable Securities, to require the Company to include
all
Registrable Securities the Purchaser may have requested for inclusion in the
registration statement (a ‘‘Piggyback Registration’’).
The
Piggyback Registration rights are subject to limitation upon that number of
Registrable Securities that each Purchaser may be include in the Piggyback
Registration in the case of registration of a primary offering by the Company
through underwriters to the extent the managing underwriter believes a secondary
offering of Registrable Securities might materially and adversely effect the
underwritten offering. In the event a managing underwriter should request a
cutback in the requested inclusion of Registrable Securities such cutback will
be imposed upon the requesting Purchasers on a prorated basis, with the right
in
any requesting Purchaser to withdraw its securities from the Piggyback
Registration.

Common
Stock
Holders
of the Company’s Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably, from funds
legally available for the payment thereof, dividends when and as declared by
resolution of the board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend
rights which may be granted to holders of any preferred stock authorized and
issued by the board of directors. No dividends have ever been declared by the
Board of Directors on the Common Stock. Holders of the Company’s Common Stock do
not have cumulative voting rights and are entitled to one vote per share on
all
matters to be voted upon by stockholders with the result that if the holders
of
more than 50% of the shares of Common Stock and the Series A and Series B
Preferred Stock, they could elect all of the directors. See, however, ‘‘Amended
and Restated Stockholders Agreement” above. The Common Stock is not entitled to
preemptive rights and is not subject to redemption, including sinking fund
provisions, or conversion. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of
the Company, the assets, if any, legally available for distribution to
stockholders, are distributable ratably among the holders of the Common Stock
after payment of all classes or series of the Company’s preferred stock. All
outstanding shares of the Common Stock are validly issued, fully-paid and
nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Common
Stock are subject to the preferential rights of all classes or series of
preferred stock currently outstanding or issued in the future.
Aduromed,
the Investors Group and persons holding a majority of the Common Stock have
agreed that of the seven members on the Board of Directors of AII such parties
will cause five to be nominees of Damien R. Tanaka, and two to be nominees
of
the Preferred Holders. (See ‘‘Stockholders Agreement’’ below).
Preferred
Stock
The
board
of directors of the Company has the authority, without further action by the
stockholders, to issue from time to time, the preferred stock in one or more
series and to fix the number of shares, designations, preferences, powers,
and
relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications
or restrictions thereof. The preferences, powers, rights and restrictions of
different series of preferred stock may differ with respect to dividend rates,
amounts payable on liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption
provisions, sinking fund provisions and other matters. The issuance of preferred
stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for
distribution to holders of the Common Stock or affect adversely the rights
and
powers, including voting rights, of the holders of Common Stock. Additionally,
as discussed below, the issuance of preferred stock with voting and/or
conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the
Common Stock, including the loss of voting control to others.
Series
A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
Dividends. Holders
of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled
to
receive dividends out of funds legally available therefore at the annual rate
of
six percent (6%) of the price paid for each share of Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock ($0.31755) payable on each March 15 and September
15. Dividends are cumulative on a daily basis and unpaid dividends will be
compounded on each payment date.
Voting.
Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock is entitled
to
one vote equally with a share of Common Stock on all matters on which holders
of
Common Stock are entitled to vote as if all three classes of stock are voting
as
one class.
The
Company may not, without the approval of the holders of more than fifty percent
(50%) of each of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and
Series B Preferred Stock, voting as separate classes:
|
|
● |
adversely
alter the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred
Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, as the case may
be;
|
|
|
● |
increase
the authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock or
Series B
Preferred Stock, as the case may be; authorize or issue any new
class or
series of the Company's capital stock or debt convertible into,
exchangeable for or having option rights to purchase shares of
such new
class or series or reclassify any class or series of the Company's
capital
stock;
|
|
|
● |
increase
the authorized number of members of the Company’s board of directors;
amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Company's
certificate of incorporation, certificates of designations or bylaws
in a
manner that adversely affects the rights of the holders of Series
A
Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred
Stock;
|
|
|
● |
pay
or set aside funds for the payment of any dividends or make any
distributions on any of the Company's capital stock (other than
the Series
A Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred
Stock);
|
|
|
● |
make,
or permit any of its subsidiaries to make, any material change, directly
or indirectly, in the nature of the Company's or such subsidiary's
business;
|
|
|
● |
incur
or become liable for, or permit any of its subsidiaries to incur
or become
liable for, through guarantees or otherwise, directly or indirectly,
any
indebtedness in excess of $5 million in the aggregate at any one
time
outstanding (calculated on a consolidated basis for the Company
and its
subsidiaries);
|
|
|
● |
for
so long as the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
Series B
Preferred Stock shall collectively represent 5% of the outstanding
shares
of capital stock of the Company or any successor entity thereto
(calculated on a fully diluted basis), engage, or permit any of
its
subsidiaries to engage, in any merger, consolidation, acquisition,
recapitalization, joint venture or
partnership;
|
|
|
● |

or indirectly dispose of all of the equity interests in any of
its direct
or indirect subsidiaries or directly or indirectly dispose of all

or
indirect subsidiaries;
|
|
|
● |
authorize,
approve or implement any employee option plan or similar employee
equity
program;
|
|
|
● |
permit
any of its subsidiaries to issue any of its capital stock or other
equity
securities to any person or entity other than the Company or any
of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries or otherwise engage in any
transaction, or permit any of its subsidiaries to engage in any
transaction, which results in the Company ceasing to directly or
indirectly own 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock
and other
equity securities of direct or indirect subsidiary of the
Company;
|
|
|
● |
enter
into, or permit any of its subsidiaries to enter into, any contract
or
other agreement to consummate any of the
foregoing.
|
Conversion. Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall be
convertible, at the option of the holder thereof upon exercise, without the
payment of additional consideration, into such number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the price
paid
for each share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
($0.31755) by the conversion price (the original purchase price, subject to
adjustment, among other things, for the issuance of any shares of Common Stock
at a price below the price paid for the Series A Preferred Stock or Series
B
Preferred Stock). Under certain circumstances the Company may cause the
conversion of all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock and/or
the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock provided that the closing price
of the Common Stock has exceeded the conversion price of the Series A Preferred
or the Series B Preferred Stock, as the case may be, by four times for at least
twenty (20) trading days in a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading
days.
Liquidation
Rights. Upon
the
liquidation or dissolution of the Company the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the
Company's assets, pari
passu,
for
each share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Stock outstanding at the
time thereof, distributions in the amount of $0.31755 (subject to adjustment
from time to time as a result of a stock split, stock combination or any other
similar event) plus an amount equal to all accumulated but unpaid dividends
thereon, whether or not declared.
There
are
no redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the Series
A
Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred Stock.

the
number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
originally issued. The exercise price is $0.37883 per share. Both the exercise
price and the number of shares of Common Stock may be adjusted for certain
events such as stock splits and the issuance of shares of Common Stock for
a
price less than the exercise price. The Series A Preferred Warrants are
exercisable until September 30, 2012. The Series B Preferred Warrants are
exercisable until January 24, 2013.

SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION POSITION ON
INDEMNIFICATION
FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
The
Certificate of Incorporation of the Company requires it to indemnify its
officers, directors, employees and agents against certain liabilities incurred
by them in those capacities if they acted in good faith and reasonably believed
their conduct was in the best interests of the Company or not opposed to it.
The
Company is also required to indemnify a person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the Company and who was successful, on the merits
or otherwise, in defense of any proceeding to which he was a party, against
reasonable expenses, which include attorneys' fees, incurred by him or her
in
connection with the proceeding.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933
may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company
under
the provisions discussed in the previous paragraph, or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in that Act and
is,
therefore, unenforceable.
ORGANIZATION
WITHIN LAST FIVE YEARS
Except
as
provided in ‘‘Prior Transactions with Officers of the Company and Aduromed’’
below, no transactions occurred in the last two years and through the date
of
this filing, directly or indirectly, between the Company and any director or
executive officer that exceeded $60,000.
DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
General.
AII
conducts its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aduromed.
Aduromed is in the business of providing solutions for managing medical waste
on
site including designing, selling, installing and servicing on site (i.e.
"in-situ")
turnkey systems to treat regulated medical waste. Aduromed provides these
systems to hospitals and other medical facilities as efficient, safe, cost
effective and legally compliant solutions to incineration, off site hauling
of
untreated waste and other alternative treatment technologies and
methodologies.
Products.
Aduromed’s
principal products are the Aduromed MedClean® series systems. The Aduromed
MedClean® system employs the following equipment and machinery:
| · |
an
autoclave vessel to sterilize the medical
waste;
|
| · |
a
shredding device, the MedClean® Shredder, to convert sterilized waste
material into a harmless, non-recognizable confetti-like material
qualifying the end product as safe municipal solid
waste;
|
| · |
a
unique AutoTouchÔ
control station with software and hardware components that integrate
and
bundle all operating and data recording functions into a system complying
with regulatory requirements for conversion and disposal of medical
waste,
including real time centralized monitoring of the system's
functions;
|
| · |
a
material transporter to mechanically transport the processed waste
from
shredder to the municipal solid waste compacting dumpster,
and;
|
| · |
a
QuietCartÔ
transport cart system to facilitate a single source containerization
of
the infectious waste from generation, sterilization, processing and
return
for refill without need for human interaction for ultimate operator
safety.
|
The
control panel of the AutoTouchÔ
Control
Station assures regulatory compliance by means of proprietary software. The
software prevents any deviation from the step-by-step processing of the waste,
requires insertion of codes by operators to access the system and monitors
and
records on a real time basis. It governs the various aspects of the system's
processes, including the load weight during each cycle and the calculation
and
employment of the proper sterilization parameters of weight, pressure,
temperature and time. The ability to shortcut or over-ride any of the steps
in
the waste conversion process is circumscribed by the features of the control
panel and its software.
Operation
of the system through the control panel is simple, since it dictates each
step
to be taken, once the operator enters the appropriate codes to open up the
control screen, and prohibits the ability of an operator to short cut the
required steps and procedures. Relatively little instruction is required
of the
operator. A tutorial is offered by the software through the control panel,
and
an operator can be fully trained within a few hours. The AutoTouchÔ
control
system can communicate in multiple languages, including English and
Spanish.
The
AutoTouchÔ
software
permits real time centralized monitoring of all the functions and uses of each
system by Aduromed. Additionally, the centralized monitors track proper
operation of a particular system. They also alert Aduromed to the need to
provide clients with supplies and preventative maintenance visits.
The
AutoTouchÔ
control
panel and software are proprietary properties of Aduromed and unique within
the
industry.
Consumable
supplies, which Aduromed sells periodically to its customers, include liners
for
Aduromed's proprietary QuietCartÔ,
deodorizing pellets and liquids for use in the autoclave, paper print rolls
for
recording data emanating from the control panel and high temperature lubricants
for the systems' machinery and equipment. The cutting blades and other parts
for
the shredders must be replaced from time to time and are purchased through
Aduromed as the exclusive distributor to hospital and medical facilities for
Weima America Incorporated.
The
series of MedClean® systems offered by Aduromed includes:
| · |
MC4
Series: Capacity - 300 to 600 pounds per cycle, up to 1,100 tons
per year
typically used in hospital facilities with up to 500
beds.
|
| · |
MC5
Series: Capacity - 450 to 900 pounds per cycle, up to 1,750 tons
per year
to be used in hospital facilities with up to 1,500
beds.
|
| · |
MC7
Series: Capacity - 2,500 to 5,000 pounds per cycle, with up to 9,500
tons
per year, suited for very large or co-located hospital campus settings
or
off-site treatment facilities.
|
The
designed capacities of the respective systems may be increased or reduced to
allow for the needs of the particular medical facility by extending or
contracting the overall length of the autoclave. Each processing cycle is
approximately 45 to 60 minutes in duration.
The
sales
price for design and installation of a MedClean® system has averaged
approximately $450,000.
The
Medical Waste Treatment Market
The
market for medical waste treatment is segmented by customer size: Large Quantity
Generators (“LQGs”), those who generate 2,000 lbs. or more of waste a month, and
Small Quantity Generators (“SQGs”), those who generate less. LQGs generally
consist of hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, medical groups, county or city
health departments and laboratories. SQGs are represented by physicians,
dentists and veterinarians in private practice, of which physicians generate
the
highest percentage of waste.

Aduromed
currently addresses the LQGs with its MedClean® 4, 5 and 7 Series Systems.
Aduromed’s MedClean® Systems are marketed directly by its sales and marketing
group. As of March_23, 2007, the Company had a backlog of orders for MedClean®
Systems in the amount of $1,805,422.
For
SQGs
there has been no realistic alternative to hauling, and any on-site solution
have been too expensive. Because of this, the SQG market represents an
opportunity for our MedClean® 30 or MedClean® 50 Series Systems, which are
currently in development. These two systems are currently pending patents for
their proprietary process. Initially, they will be targeted at Medical
Laboratories and large clinics.
The
current US medical waste market is estimated to be $1.7 billion and is expected
to grow to $2.3 billion by 2010. Source: U.S.
Waste Management and Disposal,
Frost
& Sullivan, 2003.
Aduromed
currently has 31 systems installed in 28 hospitals throughout the United States
and Puerto Rico.
Governmental
Regulations-Federal
Prior
to
2002, the principal method of disposing of most regulated medical waste (“RMW”)
was through on-site incineration. Because of the promulgation of regulations
by
the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) that came into effect on September
15, 2002, setting minimum emission limits for RMW incinerators for such
pollutants as dioxins, nitrogen oxides, lead, cadmium and mercury, the use
of
on-site incinerators in the U.S. has drastically diminished. As a consequence,
the methods of on-site disposal of RMW have been limited to steam sterilization,
chemical treatment and microwave.
Federal
agencies which regulate RMW are the EPA, the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration ("OSHA"), the U.S. Department of Transportation (the "U.S. DOT")
and the U.S. Postal Service. These agencies regulate RMW under a variety of
statutes and regulations, including the following:
| · |
MEDICAL
WASTE TRACKING ACT OF 1988 ("MWTA”). The
primary objective of the MWTA was to ensure that RMW generated in
a
covered state which posed environmental problems, including an unsightly
appearance, was delivered to disposal or treatment facilities with
minimum
exposure to waste management workers and the public. The MWTA's tracking
requirements included accounting for all waste transported and imposed
civil and criminal sanctions for violations. The MWTA demonstration
program expired in 1991, but the MWTA established a model followed
by many
states in developing their specific medical waste regulatory
frameworks.
|
| · |
CLEAN
AIR ACT REGULATIONS.
In August 1997, the EPA adopted regulations under the Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990 that limit the discharge into the atmosphere of
pollutants released by medical waste incineration. These regulations
required every state to submit to the EPA for approval a plan to
meet
minimum emission standards for these pollutants.
|
| · |
OCCUPATIONAL
SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT OF 1970.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 authorizes OSHA to
issue
occupational safety and health standards. OSHA regulations are designed
to
minimize the exposure of employees to hazardous work environments,
including RMW.
|
| · |
RESOURCE
CONSERVATION AND RECOVERY ACT OF 1976 ("RCRA").
RCRA required the EPA to promulgate regulations identifying hazardous
wastes. RCRA also created standards for the generation, transportation,
treatment, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. These
standards included a documentation program for the transportation
of
hazardous wastes and a permit system for solid and hazardous waste
disposal facilities. RMW is currently considered non-hazardous solid
wastes under RCRA. However, some substances collected by some of
Aduromed's customers, including photographic fixer developer solutions,
lead foils and dental amalgam, are considered hazardous
wastes.
|
| · |
DOT
REGULATIONS.
The U.S. DOT has put regulations into effect under the Hazardous
Materials
Transportation Authorization Act of 1994 which requires customers
to
package and label RMW in compliance with designated standards, and
which
incorporate blood-borne pathogens standards issued by OSHA. Under
these
standards, customers must, among other things, identify packaging
with a
"biohazard" marking on the outer packaging, and medical waste containers
must be sufficiently rigid and strong to prevent tearing or bursting
and
must be puncture-resistant, leak-resistant, properly sealed and impervious
to moisture. DOT regulations also require that a transporter be capable
of
responding on a 24-hour-a-day basis in the event of an accident,
spill, or
release to the environment of a hazardous
material.
|
| · |
COMPREHENSIVE
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE, COMPENSATION AND LIABILITY ACT OF 1980
("CERCLA").
CERCLA, established a regulatory and remedial program to provide
for the
investigation and cleanup of facilities that have released or threaten
to
release hazardous substances into the environment. CERCLA and state
laws
similar to it may impose strict, joint and several liability on the
current and former owners and operators of facilities from which
releases
of hazardous substances have occurred and on the generators and
transporters of the hazardous substances that come to be located
at these
facilities. Responsible parties may be liable for substantial site
investigation and cleanup costs and natural resource damages, regardless
of whether they exercised due care and complied with applicable laws
and
regulations. If a customer were found to be a responsible party for
a
particular site, it could be required to pay the entire cost of the
site
investigation and cleanup, even though other parties also may be
liable.
|
| · |
UNITED
STATES POSTAL SERVICE.
Customers must obtain permits from the U.S. Postal Service to conduct
programs, pursuant to which they mail approved "sharps" (needles,
knives,
broken glass and the like) containers directly to treatment
facilities.
|
Governmental
Regulations-State and Local
Each
state has its own regulations related to the handling, treatment and storage
of
medical waste. Although there are many differences among the various state
laws
and regulations, many states have followed the medical waste model under the
MWTA and have implemented programs under RCRA. State agencies involved in
regulating the medical waste industry are frequently the departments of health
and environmental protection agencies. In addition, many local governments
have
ordinances, local laws and regulations, such as zoning and health regulations,
including ordinances relating to the disposition of sterilized effluents into
sewage systems and municipal disposal sites which affect our customers'
operations.
Most
states require segregation of different types of medical waste at the hospital
or other location where they were created. A majority of states require that
the
universal biohazard symbol or a label appear on medical waste containers.
Storage regulations may apply to the party generating the waste, the treatment
facility, the transport vehicle, or all three. Storage rules seek to identify
and secure the storage area for public safety as well as set standards for
the
manner and length of storage. Many states require employee training for safe
environmental cleanup through emergency spill and decontamination plans. Many
states also require that transporters carry spill equipment in their vehicles.
Those states whose regulatory framework relies on the MWTA model have tracking
document systems in place.
Pursuant
to medical waste incinerator regulations adopted by the EPA in 1997, every
state
was required by September 1998 to adopt a plan to comply with federal guidelines
which, among other things, limit the release of some airborne pollutants from
medical waste incinerators to levels prescribed by the EPA. Each state's
implementation plan must be at least as restrictive as the federal emissions
standards.
Effect
of Regulations on the Companies’ Business
Aduromed
manufactures and sells its MedClean® systems that sterilize RMW by sterilization
in an autoclave chamber and subsequent shredding of the material enabling the
customer to dispose of the residue as municipal solid waste. The operation
of
the MedClean® system and the disposal of the waste are the responsibility of the
customer. As a result, Aduromed is not subject to the multitude of governmental
regulations that typify the handling and disposition of solid waste. Virtually
all of Aduromed's competitors are subject to one or more of the various
regulatory regimes associated with the medical waste disposal business as the
systems and services offered by these competitors involve incineration, chemical
treatment or transportation of medical waste.
Aduromed's
customers use landfills operated by parties unrelated to Aduromed to dispose
of
treated medical waste from medical facilities. Aduromed does not own or operate
any landfills. Waste is not regulated as hazardous under RCRA unless it contains
hazardous substances exceeding certain quantities or concentration levels,
meets
specified descriptions, or exhibits specific hazardous characteristics.
Following treatment, waste from Aduromed's MedClean® systems is disposed of as
non-hazardous waste.
Competition
RMW
has
historically been disposed of mainly through the use of off-site hauling
contractors and by incineration. Presently, in the U.S. many different types
of
technologies have been introduced to meet the new regulatory requirements for
disposal of RMW. Some of these technologies include:
| · |
DISINFECTANT.
This process involves the simultaneous shredding and disinfecting
of the
infectious medical waste. The process can only handle small batches
in
each cycle and has a capacity of approximately 70 to 400 pounds a
day,
which is not sufficient to handle the overall requirements of most
hospitals ranging from 500 to 9,000 pounds per
day.
|
| · |
CHEMICAL
REAGENTS.
The use of chemical reagents is subject to federal laws and regulations
of
the EPA that classify the chemicals involved as "pesticides". Also,
there
is considerable limitation on the volumes that can be treated by
this
method. It is not suitable for disposal of infectious medical waste
generated by hospitals and other large medical facilities since it
does
not have the capacity to handle such
volumes.
|
| · |
MICROWAVE
TECHNOLOGY.
Microwave technology is a process of disinfection that exposes material
to
moist heat generated by microwave energy. Use of this technology
requires
that proper precautions be taken to exclude the treatment of hazardous
material so that toxic emissions do not occur. The complete unit
must also
be operated under negative pressure as infectious waste is normally
shredded prior to disinfection and may create conditions where infection
can be transformed into an aerosol prior to treatment. Also, offensive
odors may be generated around the unit. The capital cost and space
requirement for this type of system is relatively
high.
|
| · |
THERMAL
PROCESSES.
Thermal processes are dry heat processes and do not use water or
steam,
but forced convection, circulating heated air around the waste or
using
radiant heaters. Companies have developed both large and small dry-heat
systems, operating at temperatures between 350°F-700°F.
Use of dry heat requires longer treatment times with precautions
required
to prevent potential combustion of the waste material during each
cycle.
|
| · |
HIGH
HEAT THERMAL PROCESSES (PYROLYSIS).
A
pyrolysis system would involve chemical decomposition of organic
medical
waste by intense heat (at least 800 degrees F) in an anaerobic atmosphere
that produces combustible gases, including carbon monoxide, hydrogen
and
methane. These gases must be flared off or treated in a secondary
combustion chamber. Particulate removal equipment such as fabric
filters
or wet scrubbers would also be required. The use of a pyrolysis system
has
not been commercialized as a method for converting infectious medical
waste.
|
| · |
RADIATION.
Electron beam technology creates ionized radiation, damaging cells
of
microorganisms. Workers must be protected with shields and remain
in areas
secured from the radiation.
|
| · |
CHEMICAL
TECHNOLOGIES.
Disinfecting chemical agents that integrate shredding and mixing
to ensure
adequate exposure are used by a variety of competitors. Chlorine
based
chemicals, using sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide, are somewhat
controversial as to their environmental effects and their impact
on
wastewater. Non-chloride technologies are varied and include parasitic
acid, ozone gas, lime based dry powder, acid and metal catalysts
as well
as alkaline hydrolysis technology used for tissue and animal
waste.

Among
Aduromed's competitors are Caprius, Inc. Stericycle, Inc., Steris Corporation,
Sanitec, Inc., San-I-Pak, and Tempico Inc.

Dependence
on a few Major Customers
It
is
anticipated that between 30% and 40% of the prospective business of Aduromed
during the ensuing six years will be derived from Aramark clients pursuant
to
the Aramark Agreement. See “Aramark Agreement”. Aramark manages approximately
1,300 hospitals throughout the United States. While there is no assurance of
the
actual number of Aramark clients that will purchase Aduromed's
MedCleanÔ
systems
and services, it is estimated that approximately 400 hospitals could be
purchasers in the next six years.
Prior
to
its arrangement with Aramark, the Company's business had been with independent
hospital and other medical facilities principally in the Northeast and
California.
The
Aramark Agreement
Aduromed
entered into an agreement dated as of September 1, 2004 with Aramark Management
Services Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership ("Aramark") and an
affiliate of Aramark Corporation, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (the
"Aramark Agreement"). Until January 2007 when a group of Aramark’s management
took the company private, Aramark Corporation was a New York Stock Exchange
listed company that is in the health care facilities management business, among
other sectors. During 2006 Aramark managed 1,300 hospitals on four continents
and had $11.6 billion in revenue.
The
Aramark Agreement has a term of ten years (plus extensions as agreed between
the
parties; provided, however, that the Aramark Agreement can be terminated for
material breach on thirty (30) days notice). It also provides that Aduromed
will
sell its products and services on a preferred basis to health care facilities
managed by Aramark, as requested by Aramark. These products include the
equipment comprising the MedClean® systems, namely, the autoclave, shredder,
tipper, conveyor and carts, plus related supplies and replacement parts. The
services include quarterly preventive maintenance of the MedCleanÔ
systems
and corrective maintenance for any non-functioning components. Aramark's clients
will order Aduromed's products and services through Aramark who will be
responsible to Aduromed for payment.
Under
the
agreement Aramark will pay Aduromed 45 days after invoice dates and, as to
the
MedCleanÔ
system
equipment, will pay in installments of 25% on receipt of a purchase order,
50%
on delivery of the equipment and 25% upon commissioning the system.
Aduromed
has agreed to provide ‘most favored nation’ treatment to Aramark. Aduromed and
Aramark entered into an amendment to the Aramark Agreement on March 28, 2007
which, among other things, eliminated an existing exclusivity provision
restricting which hospitals Aduromed could solicit for sales if certain revenue
thresholds were reached. As amended, Aduromed may solicit business through
hospital management companies that are competitors of Aramark but cannot enter
into exclusive arrangements with such competitors, and Aduromed will continue
to
have the right to solicit such business directly from hospitals that are managed
by such competitors and from independent hospitals that Aramark has elected
not
to solicit as clients.
The
Weima Agreement
Aduromed
is party to an agreement with Weima America, Inc., dated as of April 8, 2004,
pursuant to which Aduromed has the exclusive distribution rights in the United
States to Weima's four shafted "ZMK" and other shredder machines for use in
medical waste markets (the “Weima Agreement”).
This
is
the type of shredder used by Aduromed in its MedClean® systems. The Weima
Agreement may be terminated by either party on thirty (30) days
notice.

an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock, with an aggregate price
to
the public of not less than $50 million, and such Common Stock shall have been
listed on a national securities exchange or the National Association of
Securities Dealers National Market System.
Each
of
the Stockholder Parties agreed not to transfer its or his securities of the
Company unless the transferee of such securities shall have agreed in writing
to
be bound by the terms of the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement
provides that it may be amended upon the written consent of the Company and
the
holders of a majority of the shares held by the Stockholder
Parties.
Prior
Transactions with Officers of the Company and Aduromed
On
December 7, 2005, Halter Capital Corporation, a company controlled by Kevin
Halter, Jr. the then president and a director of AII, entered into agreement
negotiated with Aduromed, and to which AII was a party, to sell 259,600 shares
of AII’s Common Stock to Aduromed for a purchase price of $600,000. The sale was
conditioned upon the Merger, and was consummated on January 23, 2006. The
transaction was valued at the quoted closing price of $1.75 per share of AII
Common Stock on December 12, 2005 plus a negotiated price amounting to $145,700
for the control position in AII.
On
December 12, 2005, AII issued 539,780 shares of its Common Stock (post split)
to
Kevin Halter, Jr., then its president and a director for his services in
reorganizing and restructuring the Company. The shares were valued at the quoted
closing price of $1.75 per share on the issue date.
On
September 29, 2005, Aduromed issued 300,000 shares of its common stock to Mr.
Tanaka in connection with his employment agreement with the Aduromed. These
shares were converted into 538,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the
Merger with AII. The shares had a value of $.53 each when issued or a total
value of $158,280.00, based upon their perceived value then being negotiated
with potential third-party investors in Aduromed.
Mr.
Timothy Hertweck, who was appointed Vice President Sales of Aduromed effective
January 1, 2006, had previously been the president and owner of Portfolio
Management Associates, Inc., an Essex, Connecticut consulting firm, involved
in
merger, acquisition and turn-around situations. In 2005 Portfolio Management
was
engaged by Aduromed to investigate its sales program including staffing and
methodologies, for which Aduromed paid $22,500.
Mr.
Robert Meyer was Managing Partner of Insight to Innovation, LLC in Wilton,
Connecticut before joining Aduromed, effective January 1, 2006, as its Vice
President Marketing. In the year 2005 Insight to Innovation, LLC, a consulting
firm, had been retained by Aduromed to create a marketing plan that would
comprise recommendations for project management, procurement, inventory control
and after-market servicing. For such services Aduromed paid Insight to
Innovation, LLC $82,327.00 in 2005.
In
August, 2005 Mr. Meyer and his brother, John Meyer, each loaned $100,000 to
Aduromed for which they each received a promissory note in the face amount
of
$100,000 (each repaid in 2006) plus 100,000 shares of Aduromed’s common stock
(since converted into 179,500 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to
the Merger) and warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Aduromed’s common stock
at $1.00 per share (since converted into warrants to purchase 179,500 shares
of
the Company’s Common Stock at $.5571 per share). As consideration for his
effecting the placement of these loans in August, 2005, Mr. Meyer also received
a placement fee of $20,000. The proceeds of these loans were used by Aduromed
to
continue expansion of its regulated medical waste disposal
business.
Mr.
Birch
was appointed Vice President Business Development in September, 2005. Prior
thereto Sky King Enterprises, Inc., a Texas corporation owned by Mr. Birch
had
been retained initially to create a web site and to undertake other IT-related
services for Aduromed, and later to consult with Aduromed’s CEO, Damien Tanaka,
in connection with the negotiation and consummation of the Aramark Agreement.
(See ARAMARK AGREEMENT above). In years 2004 and 2005 Sky King Enterprises
was
paid $97,666.89 and $67,636.17, respectively, for these services.

Results
of Operations
Net
Revenue
Total
revenue for 2006 more than doubled to $4,594,347 compared with $1,989,285 for
2005. Of the revenue increase, $2,544,097 was attributable to an increase of
revenues derived from sales of our MedClean system and a $60,965 increase for
the sale of consumables, component parts and service contracts. Contract backlog
as of December 31, 2006 was $788,217.
Revenues
from our MedClean product for 2006 were $4,138,720 and $1,594,623 in 2005.
The
increased revenue was attributable to activities on new contracts awarded in
2006.
Revenues
derived from the sale of consumables, component parts and service contracts
increased by $60,965 or 15.4% to $455,627 from $394,662 in 2005. The revenue
was
attributable to increased orders for consumable products and service contracts
from hospitals that have previously purchased our MedClean system compared
to
last year.
Orders
for the MedClean system are contracted by purchase order and are billed in
3
increments. Typically, we bill our customers for 25% of the contact value at
signing, 50% when the equipment is shipped to the customer and 25% upon
completion of installation and start-up. Consumables and component parts are
billed when shipped and service contracts are invoiced at the start of the
service period and revenue is pro-rated over the life of the contract.
Gross
Profit
The
gross
profit for 2006 was $1,301,689 (28.3% of total revenue) compared with a gross
profit of $164,223 (8.2% of total revenue) for 2005, an increase of $1,137,466.
Gross profit was favorably impacted by an increase in the activity level in
addition to improved operating and procurement efficiencies in 2006 as compared
to 2005.
The
components of costs of revenues for products include direct materials, shipping
and rigging costs and contract labor primarily used to install, repair and
maintain our equipment.
Operating
Expenses
Total
operating expenses for 2006 was $4,613,118 compared with $2,125,368 for 2005,
an
increase of $2,487,750. The operating expenses for 2006 was primarily
the result of increasing the Company’s support from professional service
providers and increasing its staffing to satisfy anticipated growth and
compliance with reporting requirements as a public company as a result of the
reverse merger in January 2006. The increases included salaries and wages for
additional personnel of $850,456, depreciation on increased capital spending
of
$48,010, travel and entertainment of $179,493 health and business insurances
of
$236,808, investor relations, audit and legal expenses of $337,634 and increased
ongoing costs of rent, IT and office supplies amounted to $183,016. All other
operating expenses increased $50,333 net. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger,
the Company accrued $602,000 in liquated damages from May 25, through November
15, 2006 as which time the Company’s registration statement was declared
effective. Liquated damages accrued at 1 ½% per month on the $7 million
invested.
Interest
(Income) Expense
Interest
income for 2006 was $77,608 compared with $2,726 of interest income in 2005.
The
Company invests its excess cash in a money market account. As of December 31,
2006 the interest rate was 3.73%.
Interest
expense for 2006 was $48,490 compared with $435,851 in 2005. In 2005, we
recognized one time non-cash financing costs associated with the issuance of
common stock and amortization expense for warrants issued amounting to $377,441.
Net
loss
Net
loss for 2006 was $(3,282,311) compared to a net loss for 2005 of $(2,394,270).
Net
Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net
loss attributable to common stockholders for 2006 was $(3,686,543) or $(0.18)
cents per share (basic and diluted), compared to a net loss of $(2,434,051)
or
$(0.13) cents per share (basic and diluted) for 2005.
During
2006, the Company accrued $404,232 in dividends with an interest rate of 8%
through January 22, 2006 on $1,989,030, the value received for the series A
preferred stock and an interest rate of 6% on $7,000,000 thereafter, the total
value received for both series A and B preferred stock.

On
January 23, 2006, Aduromed purchased controlling interest in AII, a shell
company for $600,000, followed on the same date by a reverse merger transaction
in which Aduromed Corporation became a wholly owned subsidiary of AII.
On
January 23, 2006, the Company issued 15,780,160
shares of its Series B Preferred stock and warrants covering 15,780,160 shares
of its common stock for $5,010,970 in cash less $568,629 in costs related to
the
issuance of the stock.
On
January 31, 2006, the Company issued 682,100 shares of common stock at the
conversion price of $0.29 per share in conjunction with the issuance of 6 month
convertible notes to 2 individuals. The value was amortized to interest expense
over the term of the notes.
To
date,
the Company purchased $415,625 in fixed assets. The Company anticipates
purchasing approximately $250,000 in additional fixed assets in 2007.
Net
cash
used in operating activities totaled $2,445,689 and $1,804,294 for the years
ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Our
accounts receivable balance may have dramatic swings from one period to
another depending upon the timing and the amount of milestone billings
included in the balance at the end of any accounting period. There are
three milestone billings representing a percentage of the contract value
for each installment and our payment terms are ``upon receipt''. Receivable
balances are typically paid within 15 days of the invoice date. Billings
for maintenance contracts and consumables are due within 45 days and are
more numerous but much smaller in value than milestone billings. We review
our outstanding receivable balances on a regular basis to ensure that the
allowance for bad debt is adequate. Due to the varying nature in the
timing and amounts of the receivable balances as noted above, the change in
the allowance for doubtful account will not necessarily correlate with the
increase or decrease in the accounts receivable balance.
Our
inventory balance may have dramatic swings from one period to another
depending upon the expected installation date of our MedClean systems and
our
accounts payable balances can have similar swings depending on payment
terms and any volume purchases or discounts we may take advantage of from
time to time. For 2006, the Company increased its inventory on hand by
$593,765 to $639,806 in anticipation of new business expected in 2007. The
accounts payable balance as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $1,061,203
and
$224,958, respectively.
Cash
expected to be generated from operating activities, together with funds
available resulting from the proceeds of the private placement, are expected,
under current conditions, to be sufficient to finance the Company’s planned
operations over the next twelve months. As we start to increase our penetration
in the United States market, we will need to expand our customer service and
technical support capabilities to meet the needs of our clients. We may require
additional working capital or other funds in the future should we modify our
current business plan or undertake any acquisitions.
To
supplement its cash resources, the Company has been pursuing a number of
alternative financing arrangements with various investment entities. These
initiatives have resulted in a signed term sheet with one such investment
entity. Under the terms of the arrangement, this investment entity would invest
$5 million in the Company and receive 12,500,000 shares of Series C Preferred
Stock, which is parri passu in rank with the existing preferred stock of the
Company. This investment entity would also receive 6,250,000 warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company at $0.40 per share. This
arrangement is subject to typical closing conditions and the parties are
currently involved in due diligence regarding the Company. The terms of this
arrangement calls for a closing on or before April 23, 2007. There can be
no assurance that this or other such funding initiatives will be successful.
Further, any equity placement could result in substantial dilution to current
stockholders.
AII
has
an obligation to pay liquidated damages from May 24, 2006 through November
16,
2006, the date on which the Company’s registration statement became effective,
at a rate of 1 ½% per month on the $ 7 million invested in the Company. To date
we have accrued $602,000.
AII
has
an obligation to pay dividends on the value of its preferred stock at a rate
of
6%. To date we have accrued $444,013 in dividends payable.
Controls
and Procedures
As
of
December 31, 2006, the Company carried out, under the supervision and with
the
participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in
Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based
upon and as of the date of that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these
disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

AII
had
not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock in 2006 or 2005 and
does
not foresee doing so in the immediate future. It has never paid any cash or
stock dividends, and presently intends to reinvest earnings, if any, to fund
the
development and expansion of the business of Aduromed. Therefore, it does not
anticipate paying dividends on Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The
declaration of dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors
and
will depend upon AII’s earnings, financial position, general economic conditions
and other pertinent factors.
Under
their respective Certificates of Designations filed with the Delaware Secretary
of State the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock issued
by
AII have dividend rights ranking senior to any dividend rights of the shares
of
Common Stock. The holders of both the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series
B
Preferred Stock issued by AII are entitled to receive dividends out of funds
legally available therefor at the annual rate of six percent (6%) of the price
paid for each share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
($0.31755) payable on each March 15 and September 15. Dividends are cumulative
on a daily basis and unpaid dividends will be compounded on each payment date.
The
Company did not purchase any shares of its securities in 2006.

CHANGES
IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On
January 24, 2006, Amper, Politziner & Mattia, P.C., Certified Public
Accountants, ceased to act as the independent registered public accountant
of
the Company, and their client-auditor relationship thereupon ended.
Pursuant
to action by the Company's Board of Directors, the Company accepted the
resignation of Amper, Politziner & Mattia, P.C. in contemplation of its
retaining Child, Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC, Certified Public Accountants,
as its certifying accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2005.
On
February 9. 2006, pursuant to action taken by its Board of Directors, the
Company so retained Child, Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC as its certifying
accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, replacing Amper,
Politziner & Mattia, P.C.
No
report
on the financial statements of the Company issued by Amper Politziner &
Mattia, P.C. during the last two fiscal years contained an adverse opinion
or
disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles, nor were there any disagreements during the
last
two fiscal years and through January 24, 2006, between Amper, Politziner &
Mattia, P.C. and the Company concerning any matter of accounting principles
or
practices, financial statement, disclosure or auditing scope or procedure,
which
disagreements if not resolved would have required Amper, Politziner &
Mattia, P.C. to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection
with
its report. During the last two fiscal years and
through January 24, 2006, none of the events listed in Items (1) through (3)

REPORT
OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
The
Board of Directors
ADUROMED
INDUSTRIES, INC.
Bethel,
Connecticut
We
have
audited the consolidated balance sheet of AUDROMED INDUSTRIES, INC.
(the
Company) as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements
of
operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the periods ended December
31, 2006 and 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audit.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.
The company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of
its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration
of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the
accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as
evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.
We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of ADUROMED INDUSTRIES,
INC. as
of December 31, 2006, and the results of its consolidated operations
and its
consolidated cash flows for the periods ended December 31, 2006 and
2005, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of
America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
1 to the
consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred substantial
recurring losses. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to
meet its obligations and to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in
regard to this matter are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of
this uncertainty.
