PART I

Item 1.   Description of Business and Risk Factors

Development of Business

       Champions Biotechnology, Inc. was incorporated as a merger and acquisition company under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 4, 1985 under the name "International Group, Inc." In September 1985 the Company completed a public offering and shortly thereafter acquired the world-wide rights to the Champions sports theme restaurant concept and changed its name to "Champions Sports, Inc." In 1997, the Company sold its Champions service mark and concept to Marriott International, Inc. and until 2005, was a consultant to Marriott International, Inc. and operated one Champions Sports Bar Restaurant. In January 2007, the Company changed its business direction to focus on biotechnology and subsequently changed its name to Champions Biotechnology, Inc. In February 2007 the Company acquired the patent rights to two Benzoylphenylurea (BPU) sulfur analog compounds. On May 18, 2007, the Company acquired Biomerk, Inc. from Dr. David Sidransky and issued 4,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock in the merger. On April 30, 2008, the Company issued 1,428,572 restricted shares of the Company's common stock at $1.75 per share pursuant to the terms of a private investment financing.

Current Business

       The Company is engaged in the development of advanced preclinical platforms and predictive tumor specific data to enhance and accelerate the value of oncology drugs.  The Company's Preclinical Platform is a novel approach based upon the implantation of primary human tumors in immune deficient mice followed by propagation of the resulting xenografts (Biomerk Tumorgrafts™) in a manner that preserves the biological characteristics of the original human tumor.  The Company believes that Biomerk Tumorgrafts closely reflect human cancer biology and their response to drugs is more predictive of clinical outcomes in cancer patients.  The Company is building its Biomerk Tumorgraft platform through the procurement, development and characterization of numerous Tumorgrafts within each of several cancer types.  Tumorgrafts are procured through agreements with institutions in the United States and Europe and developed and tested through agreement with a U.S. based preclinical facility. 

       We intend to leverage our preclinical platform to evaluate oncology drug candidates and to develop a portfolio of novel drug candidates through pre-clinical trials.  As drugs progress through this early stage of development, the Company plans to sell, partner or license them to pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate.  We believe this strategy will enable the Company to leverage the competencies of these partners or licensees to maximize the Company's return on investment in a time frame that is shorter than for traditional drug development..  The Company believes that this model is unlike that of many new biotechnology companies that look to bring the process of drug development through all phases of discovery, development, regulatory approvals, and marketing, which requires a very large financial commitment and a long development period, typically more than a decade, to commercialize.  Thus far we have acquired two oncology drug candidates and we have begun preclinical development of the most promising candidate, SG410, through the use of contract facilities.  We have secured preclinical supply of SG410 and it is our intention to develop a soluble form of the compound and evaluate its efficacy in Biomerk Tumorgrafts from several cancer types.  If results are promising it is our intention to continue preclinical development and then sell, partner or license SG410 for its remaining clinical development. 

       The Company also offers its Biomerk Tumorgraft predictive preclinical platform and tumor specific data to physicians to provide information that may enhance personalized patient care options and to companies for evaluation of oncology drugs in a platform that integrates predictive testing with biomarker discovery.  We provide Personalized Oncology services to physicians in the field of oncology by establishing and administering expert medical information panels for their patients to analyze medical records and test results, to assist in understanding conventional and research options and to identify and arrange for testing, analysis and study of cancer tissues, as appropriate.  In FY08 the Company generated all its revenue from its growing Personalized Oncology services while we continued development of our Biomerk Tumorgraft platform. 

       In late FY08, as we expanded our number of Biomerk Tumorgraft models, we began to offer leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies the benefits of our Biomerk Tumorgrafts for their preclinical evaluation programs.  We provide Preclinical eValuation services that we believe are more predictive of clinical outcomes and that might provide for a faster and less expensive path for drug approval.  These services utilize Biomerk Tumorgrafts to evaluate tumor sensitivity/resistance to various single and combination standard and novel chemotherapy agents.  The Preclinical eValuation services we offer also include biomarker discovery and the identification of novel drug combinations.   In the fourth quarter of FY08 the Company established an agreement with ImClone Systems Incorporated for the preclinical evaluation of certain therapeutic antibodies in ImClone's clinical development pipeline. As part of the agreement, ImClone will utilize our Biomerk Tumorgrafts™ in the initial preclinical evaluation.  We are currently providing services or in discussions to provide services to a number of other companies.

Operations

       The Company generated operating revenue of $1,399,940 solely from its Personalized Oncology services during the year ended April 30, 2008.

Competition

       Competition in the biotechnology industry is intense and based significantly on scientific, technological and market forces. These factors include the availability of patent and other protection for technology and products, the ability to commercialize technological developments and the ability to obtain government approval for testing, manufacturing and marketing. The Company faces significant competition from other biotechnology companies. The majority of these competitors are and will be will be substantially larger than the Company, and have substantially greater resources and operating histories. There can be no assurance that developments by other companies will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive or that we will be able to keep pace with the technological or product developments of our competitors. These companies, as well as academic institutions, governmental agencies and private research organizations also compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific, technical and professional personnel and consultants.

       Our preclinical platform is proprietary and requires significant know-how to both initiate and operate but is not patented. It is, therefore, possible for competitors to develop other implantation procedures or to discover the same procedures utilized by the Company that could compete with the Company in its market.

Patent Applications

       It is the Company's intention to protect its proprietary property through the filing of U.S. and international patent applications, both broad and specific, where necessary and reasonable. In February 2007, the Company acquired the patent rights to two Benzoylphenylurea (BPU) sulfur analog compounds that have shown promising potent activity against in vitro and in vivo models of prostate and pancreatic cancer. The acquired rights include pending U.S. Patent Application no. 11/673,519 and corresponding international patent application (PCT/US2006/014449) filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), both entitled Design and Synthesis of Novel Tubulin Polymerization Inhibitors: Benzoylphenylurea (BPU) Sulfur Analogs.

Research and Development

       In the past fiscal year, the Company spent $199,743 on research and developmentto develop our preclinical platform.

Government Regulation

       The research, development, and marketing of the Company's products are subject to federal, state, local, or foreign legislation or regulation, including the interpretation of and compliance with existing, proposed, and future regulatory requirements imposed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") in the United States and by comparable authorities in other countries. The costs of bringing new drugs through the regulatory approval process and to the market are extremely high, and the Company plans to sell, partner or license its drug candidates to pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate prior to pursuing the FDA approval necessary to commercially market its drug products.

Employees

       As of April 30, 2008, the Company had four employees.

RISK FACTORS

       You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks not presently known or that we currently consider insignificant may also impair our business operations in the future. An investment in our common stock is very risky. If any of the following risks materialize, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

We historically have lost money, expect losses for the foreseeable future, require significant capital and may never achieve profitability.

       We historically have lost money. In the year ended April 30, 2008, we had net income of $35,698 and in the year ended April 30, 2007, we sustained a net loss of $170,058. At April 30, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of $7,068,547.

       The amount of these losses may vary significantly from year-to-year and quarter-to-quarter and will depend on, among other factors:

       

       Through April 30, 2008 we had limited operations. We intend to engage in product development, a process that requires significant capital expenditures, and we have limited sources of revenue to off-set such expenditures. Accordingly, we expect to generate operating losses in the future until such time as we are able to generate more significant revenues.

       To become profitable, we will need to generate revenues to off-set our operating costs, including our general and administrative expenses. We may not achieve or, if achieved, sustain our revenue or profit objectives, and our losses may increase in the future, and, ultimately, we may have to cease operations.

       In order to grow revenues, we must invest capital to successfully develop our products. Our products may never achieve market acceptance and we may never generate significant revenues or achieve profitability. If we must devote a substantial amount of time to raising capital, it will delay our ability to achieve our business goals within the time frames that we now expect, which could increase the amount of capital we need. In addition, the amount of time expended by our management on fund raising distracts them from concentrating on our business affairs.

Our lack of operating history in the biotechnology industry makes it difficult to evaluate or predict our future business prospects.

       We have little operating history in the biotechnology industry, and our operating results are not possible to predict at this time. We are developing our business and our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in establishing a new business enterprise, including:

early stage products;

limited capital;

expected substantial and continual losses for the foreseeable future;

limited experience in regulatory issues;

an expected reliance on third parties for the commercialization of some proposed products;

a competitive environment characterized by numerous, well-established and well-capitalized competitors;

uncertain market acceptance of our products; and

reliance on key personnel.

       The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of a new business, the development of new technology, and the competitive and regulatory environment in which we will operate.

5

       Because we are subject to these risks, you may have a difficult time evaluating our business and your investment in our company.

Our initial proposed drug products are in the early development stages and will likely not be commercially introduced for many years, if at all.

       Our proposed initial drug products still are in the early development stage and will require further development, preclinical and early phase clinical testing and investment prior to our effort to sell, license or partner with pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate. Such partnership, divestiture or license agreement may have contingencies for their possible commercialization in the United States and abroad. We cannot be sure that these products in development will:

be successfully developed;

prove to be safe and efficacious in preclinical or clinical trials;

meet applicable regulatory standards or obtain required regulatory approvals;

demonstrate substantial protective or therapeutic benefits in the prevention or treatment of any disease;

be capable of being formulated and/or produced in clinical or commercial quantities at reasonable costs;

obtain coverage and favorable reimbursement rates from insurers and other third-party payors; or

be successfully marketed or achieve market acceptance by physicians and patients.

We have very limited staffing and will continue to be dependent upon key employees.

       Our success, currently, is dependent upon the efforts of four employees, the loss of the services of which would have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition. We will continue to develop our management team and attract and retain qualified personnel in all functional areas to expand and grow our business. This may be difficult in the biotechnology industry where competition for skilled personnel is intense.

Because our industry is very competitive and many of our competitors have substantially greater capital resources and more experience in research and development than us, we may not succeed in developing our products and technologies and having them brought to market.

       Competition in the pharmaceutical industry is intense. Potential competitors in the United States and abroad are numerous and include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, most of which have substantially greater capital resources and more experience in research and development than us. Academic institutions, hospitals, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations are also conducting research and seeking patent protection and may develop and commercially introduce competing products or technologies on their own or through joint ventures. We cannot assure you that our competitors will not succeed in developing similar technologies and products more rapidly than we do, commercially introducing such technologies and products to the marketplace prior to introduction of our products, or that these competing technologies and products will not be more effective or successful than any of those that we currently are developing or will develop.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may not be able to compete as effectively.

       The biotechnology industry places considerable importance on obtaining patent and trade secret protection for new technologies, products and processes. Our success will depend, in part, upon our ability to obtain, enjoy and enforce protection for any products we develop or acquire under United States and foreign patent laws and other intellectual property laws, preserve the confidentiality of our trade secrets and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties.

       Where appropriate, we will seek patent protection for certain aspects of our technology. However, our owned and licensed patents and patent applications may not ensure the protection of our intellectual property for a number of other reasons:

•     Our preclinical platform is proprietary and requires significant know-how to both initiate and operate but is not patented. It is, therefore, possible for competitors to develop other implantation procedures or to discover the same procedures utilized by the Company that could compete with the Company in its market.

7

•     Competitors may interfere with our patents and patent process in a variety of ways. Competitors may claim that they invented the claimed invention before us or may claim that we are infringing on their patents and therefore we cannot use our technology as claimed under our patent. Competitors may also have our patents reexamined by showing the patent examiner that the invention was not original or novel or was obvious.

•     We are in the process of developing proposed products and technologies. The mere receipt of a patent does not necessarily provide much practical protection. If we receive a patent with a narrow scope, then it will be easier for competitors to design products that do not infringe on our patent. Even if the development of our proposed products is successful and approval for sale is obtained, there can be no assurance that applicable patent coverage, if any, will not have expired or will not expire shortly after this approval. Any expiration of the applicable patent could have a material adverse effect on the sales and profitability of our proposed product.

•     Enforcing patents is expensive and may require significant time by our management. In litigation, a competitor could claim that our issued patents are not valid for a number of reasons. If the court agrees, we would lose protection on products covered by those patents.

•     We also may support and collaborate in research conducted by government organizations or universities. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to acquire any exclusive rights to technology or products derived from these collaborations. If we do not obtain required licenses or rights, we could encounter delays in product development while we attempt to design around other patents or we may be prohibited from developing, manufacturing or selling products requiring these licenses. There is also a risk that disputes may arise as to the rights to technology or products developed in collaboration with other parties.

•     It also is unclear whether efforts to secure our trade secrets will provide useful protection. While we will use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our employees or consultants may unintentionally or willfully disclose our proprietary information to competitors resulting in a loss of protection. Enforcing a claim that someone else illegally obtained and is using our trade secrets, like patent litigation, is expensive and time consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States are sometimes less willing to protect trade secrets. Finally, our competitors may independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how.

Claims by others that our products infringe their patents or other intellectual property rights could adversely affect our financial condition.

       The biotechnology industry has been characterized by frequent litigation regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. Patent applications are maintained in secrecy in the United States and also are maintained in secrecy outside the United States until the application is published. Accordingly, we can conduct only limited searches to determine whether our technology infringes the patents or patent applications of others. Any claims of patent infringement asserted by third parties would be time-consuming and could likely:

result in costly litigation;

divert the time and attention of our technical personnel and management;

cause product development delays;

require us to develop non-infringing technology; or

require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements.

       Although patent and intellectual property disputes in the biotechnology industry have often been settled through licensing or similar arrangements, costs associated with these arrangements may be substantial and often require the payment of ongoing royalties, which could hurt our gross margins. In addition, we cannot be sure that the necessary licenses would be available to us on satisfactory terms, or that we could redesign our products or processes to avoid infringement, if necessary. Accordingly, an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding, or the failure to obtain necessary licenses, could prevent us from developing, manufacturing and selling some of our products, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

If any of our products that we license or partner with pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies fail to obtain regulatory approval or if approval is delayed or withdrawn, we may be unable to generate revenue from the sale or license of our products.

8

       Our products are subject to federal, state, local, or foreign legislation or regulation, including the interpretation of and compliance with existing, proposed, and future regulatory requirements imposed by the FDA in the United States and by comparable authorities in other countries. In the United States, approval of the FDA has to be obtained for each drug to be commercialized. The FDA approval process is typically lengthy and expensive, and approval is never certain. Products to be commercialized abroad are subject to similar foreign government regulation.

       Generally, only a very small percentage of newly discovered pharmaceutical products that enter preclinical development are approved for sale. Because of the risks and uncertainties in biopharmaceutical development, our proposed drug products could take a significantly longer time to gain regulatory approval than we expect or may never gain approval. If regulatory approval is delayed or never obtained, our management's credibility, the value of our company and our operating results and liquidity might be adversely affected. Furthermore, even if a product gains regulatory approval, the product and the manufacturer of the product may be subject to continuing regulatory review. Even after obtaining regulatory approval, such approval may entail limitations on the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed. Moreover, a marketed product, its manufacturer, its manufacturing facilities, and its suppliers are subject to continual review and periodic inspections. Discovery of previously unknown problems, or the exacerbation of problems previously deemed acceptable, with the product, manufacturer, or facility may result in restrictions on such product or manufacturer, potentially including withdrawal of the product from the market.

Even if our proposed products receive FDA approval, they may not achieve expected levels of market acceptance, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and operating results and could cause the market value of our common stock to decline.

       Even if our proposed products obtain required regulatory approvals, the success of those products is dependent upon market acceptance by physicians and patients. Levels of market acceptance for our new products could be impacted by several factors, including:

the availability of alternative products from competitors;

the price of our products relative to that of our competitors;

the timing of our market entry; and

the ability to market our products effectively.

Some of these factors are not within our control. Our proposed products may not achieve expected levels of market acceptance. Additionally, continuing studies of the proper utilization, safety and efficacy of pharmaceutical products are being conducted by the industry, government agencies and others. Such studies, which increasingly employ sophisticated methods and techniques, can call into question the utilization, safety and efficacy of previously marketed products. In some cases, these studies have resulted, and may in the future result, in the discontinuance of product marketing. These situations, should they occur, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations, and the market value of our common stock could decline.

Because the biotechnology industry is heavily regulated, we face significant costs and uncertainties associated with our efforts to comply with applicable regulations. Should we fail to comply, we could experience material adverse effects on our business, financial position and results of operations, and the market value of our common stock could decline.

       The biotechnology industry is subject to regulation by various federal and state governmental authorities. For example, we must comply with FDA requirements with respect to the development of our proposed products and our early clinical trials, and if any of our proposed products are approved, the manufacture, labeling, sale, distribution, marketing, advertising and promotion of our products. Failure to comply with FDA and other governmental regulations can result in fines, disgorgement, unanticipated compliance expenditures, recall or seizure of products, total or partial suspension of production and/or distribution, suspension of the FDA's review of New Drug Applications ("NDA's"), enforcement actions, injunctions and criminal prosecution. Under certain circumstances, the FDA also has the authority to revoke previously granted drug approvals. Despite our efforts at compliance, there is no guarantee that we may not be deemed to be deficient in some manner in the future. If we were deemed to be deficient in any significant way, our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially affected and the market value of our common stock could decline.

9

Your investment in our common stock may be diluted if we issue additional shares in the future.

We may issue additional shares of common stock, which would reduce your percentage ownership and may dilute your share value. Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of common stock. As of July 14, 2008, we had 33,272,718 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The future issuance of all or part of the remaining authorized common stock would result in substantial dilution in the percentage of the common stock held by existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by existing shareholders, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

There is a limited trading market for our common stock, which may make it difficult for you to sell your shares.

       Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. Like many stocks quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, trading in our common stock is thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, trading on the OTC Bulletin Board is often more sporadic and volatile than the trading on security exchanges like NASDAQ, American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange. Accordingly, you may have difficulty reselling your shares of our common stock in short time periods.

Our common stock may be deemed a "penny stock," which would make it more difficult for you to sell your shares.

       Our common stock may be subject to the "penny stock" rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market or another national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than "established customers" complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our common stock. If our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, you will find it more difficult to dispose of the shares of our common stock that you have purchased.

Item 2.   Description of Property.

       The Company leases offices at 1400 North 14th Street, Arlington, VA 22209 and at 1820 East Ray Road, Chandler, AZ 85225. The Company's rental payments are $6,400 per month.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.

       The Company is not the subject of any pending legal proceeding and to the knowledge of management, no proceedings are presently contemplated against the Company by any federal, state or local governmental agency. Further, to the knowledge of management, no director or executive officer is party to any action in which such director or executive officer has an interest adverse to the Company.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

       There were no submissions of matters to a vote of security holders. The Company did not hold its annual meeting of stockholders for FY 2008 for financial reasons.

Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

       The following discussion and analysis is provided to further the reader's understanding of the consolidated financial statements, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risk and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth below and under "Risk Factors" set forth in Item 1A and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

Overview

       In January 2007 the Company changed its business direction to focus on biotechnology and changed its name to Champions Biotechnology, Inc.  The Company is engaged in the development of advanced preclinical platforms and predictive tumor specific data to enhance and accelerate the value of oncology drugs.  The Company's Preclinical Platform is a novel approach based upon the implantation of primary human tumors in immune deficient mice followed by propagation of the resulting xenografts (Biomerk Tumorgrafts™) in a manner that preserves the biological characteristics of the original human tumor.  The Company believes that Biomerk Tumorgrafts closely reflect human cancer biology and their response to drugs is more predictive of clinical outcomes in cancer patients.  The Company is building its Biomerk Tumorgraft platform through the procurement, development and characterization of numerous Tumorgrafts within each of several cancer types.  Tumorgrafts are procured through agreements with institutions in the United States and Europe and developed and tested through agreement with a U.S. based preclinical facility. 

       We intend to leverage our preclinical platform to evaluate oncology drug candidates and to develop a portfolio of novel drug candidates through pre-clinical trials.  As drugs progress through this early stage of development, the Company plans to sell, partner or license them to pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate.  We believe this strategy will enable the Company to leverage the competencies of these partners or licensees to maximize the Company's return on investment in a relatively short time frame.  The Company believes that this model is unlike that of many new biotechnology companies that look to bring the process of drug development through all phases of discovery, development, regulatory approvals, and marketing, which requires a very large financial commitment and a long development period, typically more than a decade, to commercialize.  Thus far we have acquired two oncology drug candidates and we have begun preclinical development of the most promising candidate, SG410, through the use of contract facilities.  We have secured preclinical supply of SG410 and it is our intention to develop a soluble form of the compound and evaluate its efficacy in Biomerk Tumorgrafts from several cancer types.  If results are promising it is our intention to continue preclinical development and then sell, partner or license SG410 for its remaining clinical development. 

       The Company also offers its Biomerk Tumorgraft predictive preclinical platform and tumor specific data to physicians to provide information that may enhance personalized patient care options and to companies for evaluation of oncology drugs in a platform that integrates predictive testing with biomarker discovery.  We provide Personalized Oncology services to physicians in the field of oncology by establishing and administering expert medical information panels for their patients to analyze medical records and test results, to assist in understanding conventional and research options and to identify and arrange for testing, analysis and study of cancer tissues, as appropriate.  In FY08 the Company generated all its revenue from its growing Personalized Oncology services while we continued development of our Biomerk Tumorgraft platform.  During the year ended April 30, 2008, the Company's revenue was derived solely from Personalized Oncology services.

       In late FY08, as we expanded our number of Biomerk Tumorgraft models, we began to offer leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies the benefits of our Biomerk Tumorgrafts for their preclinical evaluation programs.  We provide Preclinical eValuation services that we believe are more predictive of clinical outcomes and that might provide for a faster and less expensive path for drug approval.  These services utilize Biomerk Tumorgrafts to evaluate tumor sensitivity/resistance to various single and combination standard and novel chemotherapy agents.  The Preclinical eValuation services we offer also includes biomarker discovery and the identification of novel drug combinations.   In the fourth quarter of FY08 the Company established an agreement with ImClone Systems Incorporated for the preclinical evaluation of certain therapeutic antibodies in ImClone's clinical development pipeline. As part of the agreement, ImClone will utilize our Biomerk Tumorgrafts™ in the initial preclinical evaluation.  We are currently providing services or in discussions to provide services to numerous other companies.

       As a result of the diligence we used in the 10-KSB process the Company reclassified certain revenues which it had previously recorded in the third fiscal quarter and moved them to the fourth fiscal quarter. This change had no impact on the annual results for the year ended April 30, 2008 as reflected in this Annual Report.

       

       In the late fourth quarter of FY08 Champions Biotechnology, Inc. formed its first management team.  As a result, the Company is currently unable to provide business trends and projections.

Results of Operations for Fiscal Years 2008 and 2007

      1. Operating Revenues

      For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, the Company's operating revenue was $1,399,940. For fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, the operating revenue was $0.00. The Company commenced its operations in the biotechnology business in January 2007, and from 2005 until 2007 had no operating revenues. As a result, the Company only had four months of meaningful operations in our fiscal year ended April 30, 2007. The Company derived all of its revenue from its Personalized Oncology services which assist physicians by providing information that may enhance personalized treatment options for their cancer patients through access to expert medical information panels and tumor specific data. Revenues are also derived from the Company's Preclinical eValuation services which offers the benefits of its Preclinical Platform to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies using Biomerk Tumorgraft studies which have been shown to be predictive of how drugs perform in clinical settings. Expectations for growth in the future are from continued Personalized Oncology services and expected increased use of our Preclinical eValuation services. The Company's revenue is described as Personalized Oncology services in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

      2. Operating Expenses

      For FY 2008, the operating expenses for the Company were general and administrative expenses of $703,176 compared to $170,058 in FY 2007. The increase of $533,118 was due to the additional expenses associated with changing the business direction and beginning operations as a biotechnology company. During FY 2007 the Company continued to incur expenses in the process maintaining its efforts of establishing itself as a biotechnology company prior to earning any revenue. As revenue was earned in FY 2008 and as revenue increases with increased development and activity, expenses increased and are expected to increase in the future, commensurate with the Company's increased levels of activity and growth.

      3. Profits / Losses

      For the reasons stated above, the Company's net income applicable to common stockholders for fiscal 2008 was $35,698, compared to a net loss of $170,058 for fiscal 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources for Fiscal Years 2008 and 2007

       The Company's cash position on April 30, 2008, was $3,709,136 compared to $3,758 on April 30, 2007. In FY 2008, the net cash provided by operating activities was $792,404. In FY 2007, the net cash used in operating activities was $78,475. The Company's working capital as of April 30, 2008 was $2,748,141 contrasted to a negative $441,065 on April 30, 2007. In FY 2008 the Company received proceeds of $2,504,250 from private investment financing. In FY 2007 the Company converted $350,460 of dividends payable on preferred stock by issuing shares of common stock in exchange for cancellation of outstanding preferred shares and waiver of all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares. In FY 2007, the Company received advances totaling $43,693 from its executive officer, James Martell, to meet the Company's working capital needs. The Company also issued 2,500,000 restricted shares of common stock to Dr. Manuel Hidalgo for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000 and 7,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to Dr. David Sidransky for an aggregate purchase price of $28,000 with all proceeds used for working capital.

       In FY 2007 the Company acquired the patent rights to cancer drug candidates Benzoylphenylurea (BPU) Sulfur Analogs. The purchase price for the patent rights consisted of an aggregate of up to 550,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock, of which 300,000 restricted shares were issued upon execution of the acquisition agreement and 250,000 restricted shares are issuable upon the issuance of one of the patents based on U.S. Patent Application no. 11/673,519.

       The Company has sufficient resources to provide for the next twelve months of operations based on its current level of expenditure, its anticipated level of future expenditure and revenue growth and its ability to curtail expenditures if needed.

Critical Accounting Policies

       Revenue Recognition. The Company derives revenue from its Personalized Oncology services which assist physicians by providing information that may enhance personalized treatment options for their cancer patients through access to expert medical information panels and tumor specific data. Revenues are also derived from the Company's Preclinical eValuation services which offer the benefits of its Preclinical Platform to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies using Biomerk Tumorgraft studies which have been shown to be predictive of how drugs perform in clinical settings. The Company's revenue is described as Personalized Oncology services in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

       Revenue is recognized in accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 104"). SAB 104 requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: 1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; 2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; 3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. As to 1), our business practices require that our services be performed pursuant to contracts with our customers. As to 2), we recognize revenue when services are rendered to our customers. As to 3), the fee is determined and fixed at the time the contract is executed. As to 4), our business practices require that fees for services be remit upon execution of the contract, either in full or in contractual amounts based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of our arrangements taking into account termination provisions and the collectability of fees under our arrangements. Revenue is recognized when services are rendered.

Miscellaneous for Fiscal Years 2008 and 2007

       Stockholders' equity on April 30, 2008 was $3,637,515 compared to a negative $261,065 on April 30, 2007. In FY 2008 and FY 2007, the Board of Directors voted to defer the annual meeting of shareholders in order to preserve the Company's cash reserves.

Item 8A(T).  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

       The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's principal executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

       Based upon their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's principal executive officer and also its chief financial officer concluded that, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

       Our management, including our principal executive officer and chief financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

       Management (with the participation of our principal executive officer and chief financial officer and with the advice of our independent auditor) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's Board of Directors was advised by Bagell, Josephs, Levine & Company, L.L.C., the Company's independent registered public accounting firm that during their performance of audit procedures for FY 2008, the firm identified a material weakness as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard No. 2 in the Company's internal control over financial reporting. This deficiency consisted primarily of inadequate staffing and supervision that could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters and failure to perform timely and effective reviews. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. At this time management has decided that considering the employees involved and the control procedures in place, there are risks associated with such staffing deficiencies, but the potential benefits of adding employees to rectify the deficiency do not justify the expenses associated with such increases. Management will periodically review this situation.

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

       In FY 2007, all executive officers of the Company as a group (one in number) received no cash compensation. Effective January 2004 through May 2007, payments of salaries to all executive officers were suspended in order to preserve the Company's cash position.

       On January 15, 2007, the Company issued options for fifty thousand shares of restricted stock to Durwood Settles, Director of the Company, exercisable over a five year period, based on a fair value exercise price on the date of issuance ($0.17), exercisable through January 15, 2012, and vesting one year from the date of issuance.

       The following table sets forth, for each of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table, information with respect to unexercised options as of the Company's fiscal year ended April 30, 2008:

All vested options will be exercisable over a five-year period expiring on the fifth anniversary of the grant date, provided that the options will terminate upon a material breach by Dr. Burkett of the employment agreement. The options shall immediately vest if the Company terminates Dr. Burkett's employment without cause.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

       In FY 2008 the Board of Directors agreed to a Director's Compensation plan whereby non-employee directors would receive options to purchase 50,000 shares upon their initial appointment as a director. In addition, the Chairman of the Board would receive options to purchase 50,000 shares. Each director would be entitled to receive options to purchase 20,000 shares annually upon their reelection or as of the annual meeting date. All options would have a term of five years, would vest equally over three years at the rate of one-third each year, and would have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date the option is granted. Based on the foregoing, Mr. Poliakoff and Ms. Stancic, both appointed as independent directors of the Company, were each granted options to purchase 50,000 shares, and Dr. Sidransky was granted options to purchase 50,000 shares, all at a price of $1.15 per share as their initial option grant.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 
 
 Board of Directors and Stockholders

Champions Biotechnology, Inc.

1400 N. 14th Street

Arlington, VA 22209-3693

 
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Champions Biotechnology, Inc., as of April 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2008. Champions Biotechnology, Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 

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

 
 In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Champions Biotechnology, Inc. as of April 30, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

On May 18, 2007, the Company acquired Biomerk, Inc. from Dr. David Sidransky and issued 4,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock.. On April 30, 2008, the Company issued 1,428,572 restricted shares of the Company's common stock at $1.75 per share pursuant to the terms of a private investment financing.

            ALLEVIATION OF GOING CONCERN

       At April 30, 2007, the Company reported that it had incurred substantial net losses for the years ended April 30, 2007 and April 30, 2006 and the Company had not commenced operations to have a revenue stream to support itself. These factors raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern at that time.

       During the three months ended April 30, 2008 the Company raised $2.5 million dollars in cash through a private placement of common stock. With this additional capital and projected cash flow expenditures over the next twelve months, Company's management considers the facts and circumstances which raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern to be alleviated.

       The Company has sufficient resources to provide for the next twelve months of operations based on its current level of expenditure, its anticipated level of future expenditure and revenue growth and its ability to curtail expenditures if needed.

NOTE 2-      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

                   Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue from its Personalized Oncology services which assist physicians by providing information that may enhance personalized treatment options for their cancer patients through access to expert medical information panels and tumor specific data. Revenues are also derived from the Company's Preclinical EValuation services which offer the benefits of its Preclinical Platform to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies using Biomerk Tumorgraft studies which have been shown to be predictive of how drugs perform in clinical settings. The Company's revenue is described as Personalized Oncology services in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Revenue is recognized in accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 104"). SAB 104 requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: 1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; 2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; 3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. As to 1), our business practices require that our services be performed pursuant to contracts with our customers. As to 2), we recognize revenue when services are rendered to our customers. As to 3), the fee is determined and fixed at the time the contract is executed. As to 4), our business practices require that fees for services be remit upon execution of the contract, either in full or in contractual amounts based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of our arrangements taking into account termination provisions and the collectability of fees under our arrangements.

The Company's revenue was solely derived from its Personal Oncology services during the year ended April 30, 2008.

       Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets". It addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a

business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. This Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements.

        Intangible Assets

Intangible assets represent costs incurred for patent applications. The costs incurred were valued at the fair value of the stock at the time of issuance. The Company will establish its estimated useful life upon approval of the application, which will begin the period of amortization of its cost. The Company will estimate the fair value of this asset annually.

       Accounting for Acquisition

The Company has accounted for its acquisition under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting, the cost, including transaction costs, are allocated to the underlying net assets, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

       Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested annually for impairment and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset's fair value. The Company assesses the recoverability of its goodwill and other intangible assets by comparing the projected undiscounted

net cash flows associated with the related asset, over the remaining lives, in comparison to their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.

       Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents payments received in advance for services to be performed. When services are rendered, deferred revenue is then recognized as earned.

       Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

              Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

              Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Historical net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reported a loss in 2007 because to do so would be antidilutive for the year presented.

                   Income Taxes

The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (the Statement), Accounting for Income Taxes. The Statement requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes, and the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled.

                   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, officer loans payable approximate fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments.

                   Stock-Based Compensation

Employee stock awards under the Company's compensation plans are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Share-based payment transactions within the scope of SFAS 123R include stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The provisions of SFAS 123R, as amended, are effective for small business issuers beginning as of the next fiscal year after December 15, 2005. Accordingly, the Company implemented the revised standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007.

The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". The fair value of the option issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company's common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty's performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in capital.

                   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" ("SFAS No. 157"). This standard provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. Prior to SFAS No. 157, the methods for measuring fair value were diverse and inconsistent, especially for items that are not actively traded. The standard clarifies that for items that are not actively traded, such as certain kinds of derivatives, fair value should reflect the price in a transaction with a market participant, including an adjustment for risk, not just the company's mark-to-model value. SFAS No. 157 also requires expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this statement on its financial statements and expects to adopt SFAS No.157 during the quarter ending July 31, 2008.

                   Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans -- An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R." This standard requires an employer to: (a) recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan's overfunded status or a liability for a plan's underfunded status; (b) measure a plan's assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer's fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Those changes will be reported in comprehensive income. The requirement to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan and the disclosure requirements are effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer's fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of this statement on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS No. 159"). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses shall be reported on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157 "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS No. 157"). The Company is currently assessing the impact that SFAS No. 159 will have on its financial statements.

CHAMPIONS BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

       The Board of directors of Champions Biotechnology, Inc. (with its subsidiaries, the "Company") has adopted this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics ("Code") to:

       All directors, officers and employees of the Company are expected to be familiar with the Code and to adhere to those principles and procedures set forth in the Code that apply to them. This Code is meant to address the general ethical requirements of business conducted by the Company, but is not all-inclusive. Particular areas of conduct, such as harassment, confidential employee complaints, and other conduct which affects the workplace are addressed separately in other Company policies included in the Company's Employee Manual.

       For purposes of this Code, the "Code of Ethics Contact Person" is Ana Stancic.

       From time to time, the Company may waive some provisions of this Code. Any waiver of the Code for executive officers or directors of the Company may be made only by the Board of Directors and must be promptly disclosed as required by SEC or American Stock Exchange rules. Any waiver for other employees may be made only by the Code of Ethics Contact Person.

I.     HONEST AND CANDID CONDUCT

       Each director, officer and employee owes a duty to the Company to act with integrity. Integrity requires, among other things, being honest and candid. Deceit and subordination of principle are inconsistent with integrity.

       Each director, officer and employee must:

II.     CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

       A "conflict of interest" occurs when an individual's private interest interferes or appears to interfere with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest can arise when a director, officer or employee takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and effectively. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a director, officer or employee, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the Company. Any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest should be discussed with the Code of Ethics Contact Person.

       Service to the Company should never be subordinated to personal gain and advantage. Conflicts of interest should, wherever possible be avoided.

       In particular, clear conflict of interest situations involving directors, executive officers and other employees who occupy supervisory positions or who have discretionary authority in dealing with any third party specified below may include the following:

       Such situations, if material, must always be approved in advance by the Code of Ethics Contact Person.

       Anything that would present a conflict for a director, officer or employee would likely also present a conflict if it is related to a member of his or her family.

III.     DISCLOSURE

       Each director, officer or employee involved in the Company's disclosure process, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (the "Senior Financial Officers"), is required to be familiar with and comply with the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, to the extent relevant to his or her area of responsibility, so that the Company's public reports and documents filed with the SEC comply in all material respects with the applicable federal securities laws and SEC rules. In addition, each such person having direct or supervisory authority regarding these SEC filings or the Company's other public communications concerning its general business, results, financial condition and prospects should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other Company officers and employees and take other appropriate steps regarding these disclosures with the goal of making full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure.

       Each director, officer or employee who is involved in the Company's disclosure process, including without limitation, the Senior Financial Officers, must:

IV.     COMPLIANCE

       It is the Company's policy to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. It is the personal responsibility of each employee, officer and director to adhere to the standards and restrictions imposed by those laws, rules and regulations.

       It is against Company policy and in many circumstances illegal for a director, officer or employee to profit from undisclosed information relating to the Company or any other company. Any director, officer or employee may not purchase or sell any of the Company's securities while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the Company. Also, any director, officer or employee may not purchase or sell securities of any other company while in possession of any material nonpublic information relating to that company.

       Any director, officer or employee who is uncertain about the legal rules involving a purchase or sale of any Company securities or any securities in companies that he or she is familiar with by virtue of his or her work for the Company, should consult with the Company's Chief Operating Officer before making any such purchase or sale.

V.     REPORTING AND ACCOUNTABILITY

       The Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations presented to it for review and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any director, officer or employee who becomes aware of any existing or potential violation of this Code is required to notify the Code of Ethics Contact Person promptly. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.

       Any questions relating to how this Code should be interpreted or applied should be addressed to the Code of Ethics Contact Person. A director, officer or employee who is unsure of whether a situation violates this Code should discuss the situation with the Code of Ethics Contact Person to prevent possible misunderstandings and embarrassment at a later date.

       Each director, officer or employee must:

       The Audit Committee shall take all action they consider appropriate to investigate any violations reported to them. If a violation has occurred, the Company will take such disciplinary or preventive action as it deems appropriate, after consultation with the Audit Committee, in the case of a director or executive officer, or after consultation with the President, in the case of any other employee.

VI.     CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

       Directors, officers and employees owe a duty to the Company to advance the Company's business interests when the opportunity to do so arises. Directors', officers and employees are prohibited from taking (or directing to a third party) a business opportunity that is discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position, unless the Company has already been offered the opportunity and turned it down. More generally, directors, officers and employees are prohibited from using corporate property, information or position for personal gain and from competing with the Company.

       Sometimes the line between personal and Company benefits is difficult to draw, and sometimes there are both personal and Company benefits in certain activities. Directors, officers and employees who intend to make use of Company property or services in a manner not solely for the benefit of the Company should consult beforehand with the Code of Ethics Contact Person.

VII.     CONFIDENTIALITY

       In carrying out the Company's business, directors, officers and employees often learn confidential or proprietary information about the Company, its customers, suppliers or joint venture parties. Directors, officers and employees must maintain the confidentiality of all information so entrusted to them, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. Confidential or proprietary information of the Company, and of other companies, includes any non-public information that would be harmful to the relevant company or useful or helpful to competitors if disclosed.

VIII.     FAIR DEALING

       We have a history of succeeding through honest business competition. We do not seek competitive advantages through illegal or unethical business practices. Each director, officer and employee should endeavor to deal fairly with the Company's service providers, suppliers, competitors and employees. No director, officer or employee should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any unfair dealing practice.

IX.     PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF COMPANY ASSETS

       All directors, officers and employees should protect the Company's assets and ensure their efficient use. All Company assets should be used only for legitimate business purposes.
