This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 27,300,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of Diamond Technologies Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “
Common Stock
”), by the selling stockholders. Twenty million of such shares are subject to the terms of an Investment Agreement with Kodiak Capital Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“
Kodiak
”) pursuant to which we have the right to “put” to Kodiak (the “
Put Right
”) up to $15 million in shares of our common stock (the “
Investment Agreement
” or “
Equity Line of Credit
”).
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock by the selling stockholders. However, we will receive proceeds from the sale of securities pursuant to our exercise of the Put Right. We will bear all costs associated with this registration.
Kodiak is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “
Securities Act
”) in connection with the resale of our common stock under the Equity Line of Credit. Kodiak will pay us 90% of the lowest closing “best bid” price (the highest posted bid price) of the common stock during the five consecutive trading days immediately following the date of our notice to Kodiak of our election to put shares pursuant to the Investment Agreement.
Our common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“
OTCBB
”) under the symbol “PCOM”. The last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCBB on April 27, 2010, was approximately $4.25 per share.
It is not possible to determine the price to the public in any sale of the shares of Common Stock by the selling stockholders and the selling stockholders reserve the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares. Accordingly, the selling stockholders will determine the public offering price, the amount of any applicable underwriting discounts and commissions and the net proceeds at the time of any sale. The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions.

ABOUT THIS OFFERING
This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 27,300,000 shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholders, consisting of the following:
·
|
20,000,000 shares of common stock issuable to Kodiak Capital Group, LLC in 2010 for investment banking services pursuant to an Investment Agreement with us dated April 30, 2010 (the “
Investment Agreement
” or “
Equity Line of Credit
”).
|
·
|
3,000,000 shares of common stock issued to Herb Adams.
|
·
|
25,000 shares of common stock issued to Samuel Baker .
|
·
|
200,000 shares of common stock issued to John Cecil .
|
·
|
1,000,000 shares of common stock issued to John Dow.
|
·
|
3,000,000 shares of common stock issued to Mary Krcfalusi.
|
·
|
25,000 shares of common stock issued to Vince Leitao.
|
·
|
50,000 shares of common stock issued to Ryan Hudson.
|
Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, we have the right to “put” to Kodiak (the “
Put Right
”) up to $15 million in shares of our common stock (i.e., we can compel Kodiak to purchase our common stock at a pre-determined formula). Accordingly, this prospectus relates, in part, to the resale of up to 20,000,000 shares of our common stock by Kodiak.
For the purpose of determining the number of shares of common stock to be offered by this prospectus, we have assumed that we will issue not more than 20,000,000 shares pursuant to the exercise of the Put Right, although the number of shares that we will actually issue pursuant to the Put Right may be more or less than 20,000,000, depending on the trading price of our common stock. We currently do not intend to exercise the put right in a manner which would result in our issuance of more than 20,000,000 shares, but if we were to exercise the Put Right in that manner, we would be required to file a subsequent registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“
SEC
”) and that registration statement would have to be declared effective prior to the issuance of any additional shares.
The Investment Agreement provides, in part, that following notice to Kodiak, we may put to Kodiak up to $15,000,000 in shares of our common stock for a purchase price equal to 90% of the lowest closing “best bid” price (the highest posted bid price) of the common stock during the five consecutive trading days immediately following the date of our notice to Kodiak of our election to put shares pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The dollar value that we will be permitted to put will be either: (a) $250,000 or (b) 200% of the average daily volume in the U.S. market of the common stock for the three trading days prior to the notice of our put, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing bid prices immediately preceding the date of the put notice. Kodiak has indicated that it will resell those shares in the open market, resell our shares to other investors through negotiated transactions, or hold our shares in its portfolio. This prospectus covers, in part, the resale of our stock by Kodiak either in the open market or to other investors through negotiated transactions. Kodiak’s obligations under the Investment Agreement are not transferrable and this registration statement does not cover sales of our common stock by transferees of Kodiak.
Kodiak will only purchase shares when we meet the following conditions:
·
|
a registration statement has been declared effective and remains effective for the resale of the common stock subject to the Equity Line of Credit;
|
·
|
our common stock has not been suspended from trading for a period of five consecutive trading days and we have not been notified of any pending or threatened proceeding or other action to delist or suspend our common stock;
|
·
|
we have complied with our obligations under the Investment Agreement and the attendant Registration Rights Agreement;
|
·
|
no injunction has been issued and remains in force, and no action has been commenced by a governmental authority which has not been stayed or abandoned, prohibiting the purchase or the issuance of our common stock; and
|
·
|
we have not filed a petition in bankruptcy, either voluntarily or involuntarily, and there shall not have been commenced any proceedings under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws.
|
|
The Investment Agreement will terminate when any of the following events occur:
|
·
|
Kodiak has purchased an aggregate of $15,000,000 of our common stock or three years after the effective date;
|
·
|
we file or otherwise enter an order for relief in bankruptcy; or
|
·
|
our common stock ceases to be registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
|
As we draw down on the Equity Line of Credit, shares of our common stock will be sold into the market by Kodiak. The sale of these additional shares could cause our stock price to decline. In turn, if the stock price declines and we issue more puts, more shares will come into the market, which could cause a further drop in the stock price. You should be aware that there is an inverse relationship between the market price of our common stock and the number of shares to be issued under the Equity Line of Credit. If our stock price declines, we will be required to issue a greater number of shares under the Equity Line of Credit. We have no obligation to utilize the full amount available under the Equity Line of Credit.

RISK FACTORS
Please consider the following risk factors before deciding to invest in our common stock.
Risks associated with Diamond Technologies Inc.:
1.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion which indicates that we may not be able to continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months.
2.
Because we have changed business, we lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. There is no assurance our operations will result in profitable revenues. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably, we may suspend or cease operations.
We were incorporated on December 12, 2006 and we generated nominal revenues three years ago and none since then. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our net loss since inception is $855,020. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon
* our ability to manufacture our products
* our ability to attract customers who will buy products
* our ability to generate revenues
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be incurring expenses and not generating revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business.
3.
We have no clients, customers or suppliers and we cannot guarantee we will ever have any. Even if we obtain clients, customers and suppliers, there is no assurance that we will make a profit.
We have no clients, customers or suppliers. We have not identified any clients, customers or suppliers and we cannot guarantee we ever will have any. Even if we obtain clients, customers and suppliers for our services, there is no guarantee that our suppliers will supply us products, or that our clients and customers will use our website to buy our products or services. If we are unable to attract enough suppliers to offer their products for sale or enough customers to buy the products from our website to operate profitably we will have to suspend or cease operations.
4.
We need additional capital in order to stay in business for one year. If we can’t raise it, we could go out of business.
We have exhausted our capital and need additional funds to begin our operations. If we can’t raise it through this offering, we may have to cease operations.
5.
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit marketing our services to potential customers and suppliers. As a result, we may not be able to attract enough customers to operate profitably. If we do not make a profit, we may have to suspend or cease operations
.
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit marketing our website to potential customers and suppliers. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy or suppliers to sell products to operate profitably. If we cannot operate profitably, we may have to suspend or cease operations.
6.
Because our officers and directors will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of operations. This activity could prevent us from attracting suppliers and customers and result in a lack of revenues which may cause us to cease operations.
Our officers and directors will only be devoting limited time to our operations. Because our officers and directors will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to our officers and directors. As a result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended.
7.
Because most of our assets and our officers and directors are located outside the United States of America, it may be difficult for an investor to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our officers and directors.
Our assets are located outside of the United States and most of our officers’ and directors’ assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process or enforce within the United States, any judgments obtained against us or our s officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, it is unlikely that the courts of Canada and other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our officers and directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in Canada or other jurisdictions against us or our officers and directors predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.
8.
We operate in a highly competitive industry and we cannot guarantee you that we will ever achieve any level of success in competing for clients.
The computer industry is very competitive. We are at a competitive disadvantage in attracting clients due to our relatively small size. Most of our competitors are larger and more diversified than we are and have greater financial resources. We cannot predict the degree of success, if any, with which we will meet competition in the future.
Risks associated with this offering:
9. We are registering an aggregate of 27,300,000 shares of common stock; of which 20,000,000 are to be issued under the Equity Line of Credit. The sale of such shares could depress the market price of our common stock.
We are registering an aggregate of 27,300,000 shares of common stock under this registration statement, 20,000,000 of which will be issued pursuant to the Equity Line of Credit. The sale of these shares into the public market could depress the market price of our common stock. As of April 27, 2010, there were 24,005,166 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
10. Existing stockholders could experience substantial dilution upon the issuance of common stock pursuant to the Equity Line of Credit.
This registration contemplates our issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to Kodiak, subject to certain restrictions and obligations. If the terms and conditions of the Equity Line of Credit are satisfied, and we choose to exercise our Put Rights to sell 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to Kodiak, our existing stockholders’ ownership will be diluted by such sales. Consequently, the value of your investment may decrease.
Our Equity Line of Credit with Kodiak contemplates the potential future issuance and sale of up to $15,000,000 of our common stock to Kodiak subject to certain restrictions and obligations.
11.
Kodiak will pay less than the then-prevailing market price for our common stock.
The common stock to be issued to Kodiak pursuant to the Investment Agreement will be purchased at a ten percent (10%) discount to the lowest closing “best bid” price (the highest posted bid price) of the common stock during the five consecutive trading days immediately following the date of our notice to Kodiak of our election to put shares pursuant to the Investment Agreement. Kodiak has a financial incentive to sell our common stock immediately upon receiving the shares to realize the profit equal to the difference between the discounted price and the market price. If Kodiak sells the shares, the price of our common stock could decrease
.
If our stock price decreases, Kodiak may have a further incentive to sell the shares of our common stock that it holds. These sales may have a further impact on our stock price.
12. There may not be sufficient trading volume in our common stock to permit us to generate adequate funds from the exercise of our put.
The Investment Agreement provides that the dollar value that we will be permitted to put to Kodiak will be either: (a) $250,000 or (b) 200% of the average daily volume in the US market of the common stock for the three trading days prior to the notice of our put, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing bid prices immediately preceding the date of the put. If the average daily trading volume in our common stock is too low, it is possible that we would only be permitted to exercise a put for $250,000 which may not provide adequate funding for our planned operations.
13. Our common stock is thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
Our common stock has historically been sporadically or “thinly-traded” on the OTCBB, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small or nonexistent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable.
As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a mature issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. It is possible that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will not develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will continue.
14. The limited public trading market may cause volatility in our stock price.
The quotation of our common stock on the OTCBB does not assure that a meaningful, consistent and liquid trading market currently exists, and in recent years such market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of many smaller companies like us. Our common stock is thus subject to this volatility. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock.
15. The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.
The SEC has adopted rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:
·
|
that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
|
·
|
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased
|
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
·
|
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
|
·
|
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
|
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
·
|
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
|
·
|
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
|
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
16. Rule 144 Related Risk.
The SEC adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008 that apply to securities acquired both before and after that date. Under these amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale, (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale and (iii) if the sale occurs prior to satisfaction of a one-year holding period, we provide current information at the time of sale.
Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:
·
|
1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding; or
|
·
|
the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale;
|
provided
, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale. Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.
17. Restrictions on the reliance of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or former Shell Companies.
Historically, the SEC staff has taken the position that Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by companies that are, or previously were, blank check companies, like us. The SEC has codified and expanded this position in the amendments discussed above by prohibiting the use of Rule 144 for resale of securities issued by any shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or any issuer that has been at any time previously a shell company. The SEC has provided an important exception to this prohibition, however, if the following conditions are met:
·
|
The issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
|

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this prospectus may be “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and are likely to, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those described above and those risks discussed from time to time in this prospectus, including the risks described under “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this prospectus and in other documents which we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, such statements could be affected by risks and uncertainties related to our ability to raise any financing which we may require for our operations, competition, government regulations and requirements, pricing and development difficulties, our ability to make acquisitions and successfully integrate those acquisitions with our business, as well as general industry and market conditions and growth rates, and general economic conditions. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock offered by the selling stockholders. However, we will receive proceeds from the sale of our common stock to Kodiak pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The proceeds from our exercise of the Put Right pursuant to the Investment Agreement will be used as follows:

Selling Security Holders
The following table details the name of each selling stockholder, the number of shares owned by that selling stockholder, and the number of shares that may be offered by each selling stockholder for resale under this prospectus. Except for Kodiak Capital Group, LLC, none of the selling shareholders is a broker-dealer. All of the selling shareholders are deemed underwriters either because they are officers and directors or own more than 10% of the total outstanding shares of common stock or they acquired their shares within the last six months. The selling stockholders may sell up to 27,300,000 shares of our Common Stock from time to time in one or more offerings under this prospectus, including 20,000,000 shares which are issuable upon the exercise of our put right with Kodiak. Because each selling stockholder may offer all, some or none of the shares it holds, and because, based upon information provided to us, there are currently no agreements, arrangements, or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares, no definitive estimate as to the number of shares that will be held by each selling stockholder after the offering can be provided. The following table has been prepared on the assumption that all shares offered under this prospectus will be sold to parties unaffiliated with the selling stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This prospectus includes 27,300,000 shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholders.
Each selling stockholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of its shares of common stock on the OTCBB or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which our shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
·
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer 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;
|
·
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
|
·
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
|
·
|
privately negotiated transactions;
|
·
|
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;
|
·
|
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
|
·
|
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
|
·
|
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
|
·
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
|
A selling stockholder or its pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then market price. A selling stockholder cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the selling stockholder. The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, may be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules and regulations under such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
We are paying all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholder, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter discounts. The selling stockholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. No selling stockholder has entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.
A selling stockholder may pledge its shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares. The selling stockholder and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholder or any other such person. In the event that the selling stockholder is deemed affiliated with purchasers or distribution participants within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In regards to short sells, the selling stockholder is contractually restricted from engaging in short sells. In addition, if such short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.
We have agreed to indemnify certain of the selling stockholders, or their transferees or assignees, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the selling stockholder or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may be required to make in respect of such liabilities. If the selling stockholder notifies us that it has a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between the selling stockholder and the broker-dealer.
We agreed to use our best reasonable efforts to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect.

The foregoing reflects a 3 for 1 stock dividend declared on February 11, 2008.
Dividends
We have not declared any cash dividends, nor do we intend to do so. We are not subject to any legal restrictions respecting the payment of dividends, except that they may not be paid to render us insolvent. Dividend policy will be based on our cash resources and needs and it is anticipated that all available cash will be needed for our operations in the foreseeable future.
A stock dividend was declared on February 11, 2008, wherein two additional common shares were issued for each one common share issued and outstanding as at February 25, 2008. We have not declared any other dividends.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
This section of the report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect out current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substance doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated substantial revenues and do not anticipate generating on-going revenue until we complete the development of our website and engage suppliers and customers to buy our products.
We have opened our office, purchased furniture and computers, installed phone lines and acquired finished goods for resale. We made no sales in 2009.
Plan of Operation
The following Plan of Operation contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth elsewhere in this document.
Our plan and focus during the next twelve months include both selling our existing product as well as developing and possibly selling new products.
Our Sales and Marketing Strategy for existing developed products
As of the date of this report, we have not sold any products, nor do we have any customers. We hope to initiate operations within the next 90 days. Our milestones during the next twelve months are:
1 - Developing our sales organization and marketing the third party products along with our software that bring the data from these products into an EMR system in the major metropolitan areas of Canada
2 – Simultaneously with the build-up of our sales organization, we will build a product support team that will provide installation, training and customer support.
3 – Expanding our market from the larger metropolitan areas to the smaller rural and more distant medical facilities.
Within Canada, we will focus on having a direct sales force to market and sell EMR to walk-in clinics/doctor’s offices, Independent Diagnostic Centers /Independent Health Facilities and hospitals.
Outside Canada, we may establish commercial partnerships for all of our product candidates in order to accelerate development and marketing in those countries and further broaden our products’ commercial potential.
Our Development and Commercialization Strategy for new products
We intend to initiate sales of our products in our target commercial areas. Our target commercial areas are hospitals, clinics and doctor’s offices. We expect to focus on marketing our current offering as well as completing product development for our product candidates in order to increase our possibilities for current and future revenue generation.
Our forward-looking plan envisions applying our copyrighted design and technology to develop three additional products, to bring to market integrated computer systems that address today’s critical health management needs in epidemic control, medical information flow across borders and provision of heath care in rural and remote areas.
In addition to our EMR which is ready for production, we have prioritized the following products for completion of development and are listing them in order of priority.
C&ID-IMS - our Communicable and Infectious Diseases Information Management System technology.
CCG - our Clinical-Care Globalization technology.
MC-Telehealth - our Mobile Clinic or tele-health technology.
We do not at this time have a definitive timetable as to when we will complete these intense development efforts.
We are considered to be in the development stage, as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7. We have been in the development stage since our inception. We have had no substantial recurring source of revenue; we have incurred operating losses since inception and at December 31, 2009 had a working capital deficiency of $668,302.
The development and marketing of new medical software technology is capital intensive. We have funded operations to date either through the sale of our common stock or through advances made by our key shareholders.
We have utilized funds obtained to date for organizational purposes and to commence
certain financial transactions. We require additional funding to complete these transactions (including the purchase of Rophe and related expenses) , expand our marketing and sales efforts and increasing Diamond’s revenue base.
Limited operating history; need for additional capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price increases in services and products.
To become profitable and competitive, we have to locate and negotiate agreements with manufacturers to offer their products for sale to us at pricing that will enable us to establish and sell the products to our clientele.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop, or expand out operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
Results of operations
From Inception on December 12, 2006 to March 31, 2010
During the year 2007, we incorporated the company, hired the attorney and the auditor and began to negotiate contracts and sell printing related products.

We sold 150,000 shares of common stock to our President for $15,000. We exchanged 3,000,000 shares of common stock to Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. for 300 common shares of Rophe. We issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock to Rophe in exchange for $200,000 payable to Rophe on March 31, 2010 and $200,000 of the $250,000 payable to Rophe on April 30, 2010. We sold 1,133,664 shares of common stock at $0.15 per share for a total of $170,050.
Liquidity and capital resources
As of the date of this report, we have not generated any revenues from our business operations.
In December 2006, we issued 5,000,000 pre-dividend shares of common stock pursuant to the exemption contained in Reg. S of the Securities Act of 1933. This was accounted for as a sale of common stock.
On June 25, 2007, we completed our public offering of 490,500 shares of pre-dividend common stock at an offering price of $0.25 per share. We raised $122,625.
On December 28, 2007, we sold 83,334 restricted pre-dividend shares of the Company common stock pursuant to the exemption contained in Reg. S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended at an offering price of $0.60 per share we raised $50,000.
A stock dividend was declared on February 11, 2008, wherein two additional common shares were issued for each one common share issued and outstanding as at February 25, 2008.
On December 31, 2009, we acquired 300 shares of common stock of Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. (Rophe”) which constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of Rophe common stock in exchange for 3,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock. Rophe thereby became our wholly owned subsidiary corporation. On March 16, 2010, the Rophe Acquisition payment terms were amended, the company issued additional 3,000,000 of the Company’s common shares in exchange for $200,000 payable on March 31, 2010 and $250,000 payable on April 30, 2010.
As of March 31, 2010, our total assets were $875,310 in cash, fixed assets and our total liabilities were $599,805 comprised of $ 25,561 in accounts payable and $507,741 in accrued officer salaries and other amounts due to officer and shareholders. And $66,502 acquisition cost payable.
Financing - The Equity Line of Credit
As a means for financing operations, we have entered into an Investment Agreement/Equity Line of Credit with Kodiak Capital Group, LLC, pursuant to which we have the right to “put” to Kodiak up to $15 million in shares of our common stock (i.e., we can compel Kodiak to purchase our common stock at a pre-determined formula). For a detailed discussion of the Investment Agreement, see “About this Offering.”
Consulting Agreement
On April 22, 2010 we entered into a consulting agreement with Ten Associates, LLC (“Ten”) wherein Ten was retained to disseminate information about us to broker-dealers, the public, and our shareholders. The term of the agreement is one year with a commencement date of April 15, 2010. The consideration for the agreement is $10,000 for the first month, $15,000 for the second and third months, and $20,000 per month thereafter.
BUSINESS
Diamond Technologies Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 12, 2006 to engage in the business of selling printing equipment, media, display stands and consumables such as inks (dye, uv, solvent) ink cartridges
.
On December 11, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. and its shareholders (collectively “Rophe”) wherein we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Rophe in exchange for 3,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock and $1,200,000.
On or about December 11, 2009, we changed our business focus from selling printing equipment to manufacturing and developing software designed to taking medical information from many sources and depositing it into a single source as an electronic medical record for each patient.
Our Technology
We own copyrighted proprietary technologies which allow us to accumulate and store medical information from various parts of the health-care system into a single source to be stored as an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for each patient. This allows us to bring together data from pharmaceutical, diagnostic and laboratory systems into one place and provides real-time access of a person’s medical information to doctors at the point of care [patient bedside / doctors office] which helps improve patient care and lowers the cost of medical services.
Our Current Product
The EMR integration software (EMR) is our premier product. We intend to provide third-party health-care systems (i.e. clinical, laboratory, hospital, etc.) along with software that helps integrate and make the data from those systems available as an electronic medical record at point of service , i.e. doctors office/hospital bed/rural clinic via the internet , on a doctor’s PDA or mobile phone.
This helps reduce the amount of paperwork needed to maintain patient records, reduce errors in medication caused by inconsistent files and speed up the feedback loop for test results and make those available to caregivers very quickly, The goal is reduction in patient wait time for medical services, avoidance of repeat of unnecessary testing due to delayed or missing files, resulting in quicker and better medical care at lower costs to government ministries.
As of the date of this report, we have not sold EMR to any customers and there is no assurance we will ever sell EMR to anyone.
Our Products in Development
In addition to EMR, our product portfolio also includes three earlier stage products listed below, all of which highlight the broad applicability of our proprietary technologies to a diverse range of potential future products. We plan to evaluate partnership opportunities for further development and commercialization of these products.
1 - C&ID-IMS is an internet solution for monitoring and managing Communicable and Infectious Disease information.
Our target markets are Health Organizations and Ministries of Health, hospitals and Center for Disease Control (CDC) & the World Health Organization (WHO) members around the globe.
2 - CCG is our clinical-care globalization technology. This product is an effective way to capitalize on the growing “medical tourism phenomenon ” - patients going to low-cost countries for elective medical procedures –, a fast-growing worldwide, multibillion-dollar industry actively promoted by countries such as Cuba, Costa Rica, Hungary, India, Israel, Jordan, Lithuania, Malaysia and Thailand. Belgium, Poland and Singapore and South Africa.
CCG can be used by both the destination and home country to maintain complete and accurate records of the treatment history, avoiding errors due to incomplete patient data and lessening the burden and expense of corrective action on the home country when medical tourists return home.
3 - MC-Telehealth is our mobile clinic long distance or tele-health technology. Our product enables the remote transmission of standardized formats of data for laboratory information, diagnostic imaging, diagnosis and clinical notes.
As of the date of this report, we have not sold any of our product in development to any customers and there is no assurance we will ever sell EMR to anyone.
Target Market
Our target market for EMR is the Canadian health-care system including Walk-In Clinics/Physicians Offices, Independent Diagnostic Centers, Impendent Health Facilities, Laboratories, and Hospitals. Both the US and Canadian governments are moving towards requiring EMR records with the Canadian system at a more advanced stage of acceptance. Incentives for purchase are provided in Canada where this spending qualifies for assistance from the 2009/2010 Federal Budget as part of Canada’s economic stimulus program.
Field of Operations and Corporate Mission
We are a medical information company that uses technology to assist physicians and nurses to streamline the mass of patient information in a coherent and usable manner. Our clinical information systems are designed for use in hospitals, healthcare delivery organizations and regional and national healthcare authorities. Our corporate mission is to help healthcare professionals practice the best possible medicine, at the point of care.
We intend to market leading-edge technology solutions for healthcare institutions and authorities. These solutions are designed to save cost, time and reduce adverse drug events (ADE) that kill more than 200,000 patients per year in the United States alone. Our latest generation suite of software modules comprises a fully functional clinical information system (Clinical Information System) that includes the complete electronic medical record (Electronic Medical Record), with a core Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) module. Our Clinical Information System, Electronic Medical Record and CPOE work together to reduce the cost of providing medical care, while dramatically improving the quality and efficiency of healthcare services offered by healthcare institutions.
The EMR
The EMR is a group of software modules that constitute a comprehensive, state of the art, fully functional Clinical Information System. EMR is an informatics tool that enables the physician to make informed diagnostic and therapeutic decisions at the point of care. The system communicates with existing legacy systems including Admissions (ADT), pharmacy, laboratory, radiology and Picture Archival and Communication Systems (PACS) through Health Language 7 (HL-7) interfaces. Through its interfaces, EMR captures all clinical information available on every hospitalized patient at any given moment, representing the totality of data required by the hospital clinical staff to perform their duties. Healthcare personnel are able to access information culled from a variety of different sources through this single software solution. The EMR has the following functionality:
|
Ÿ
|
|
Electronic Medical Record. Our Electronic Medical Record system replaces paper-based activities by doctors and nurses. All patient care is prescribed and documented in an electronic media that may include wireless devices with remote access via an Internet portal. All of a patient’s medical history is securely stored in a central database for easy access by the attending healthcare professionals. The information is accessed through a series of computer workstations placed in every ward, within easy reach of the doctors and nurses responsible for those patients.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
CPOE. The CPOE module is a method of giving patient prescriptions and other medical orders in an electronic mode. This form of automation of medical acts has many advantages, such as, the speedy transmission of orders through the hospital, and the elimination of errors due to illegible handwriting. As a result, a CPOE module is believed to contribute to better patient safety. Furthermore, a CPOE module combined with decision support information would contribute to eliminating many common medical errors that occur on a daily basis, such as dosage errors and harmful drug interactions.

Clinical Decision Support. EMR decision support helps the physician validate his therapeutic decisions in real time while prescribing medication. This activity is supported by an extensive knowledge base containing thousands of user cases and thousands of decisional algorithms with up to 30 levels of decision support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
ADE Prevention. We believe our EMR helps prevent ADE’s which often cause prolonged hospitalization and death. In addition, we believe our system helps reduce medication side-effects and avoid duplication of prescriptions, lab tests and radiology exams by bringing important clinical information to the attention of the physician in real time at the point of care. Through our system, the availability of medical charts is immediate, and can be securely encrypted and transmitted worldwide via the Internet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Medical Audits. The implementation of the EMR in a hospital setting allows for audit of medical procedures and their outcomes. The medical audit mechanism also assures that appropriate regulatory standards are being met. The use of biometric electronic signature provides data security at the highest level.
|
EMR Modules
EMR modules come in four broad classes – administrative/support, nursing, clinical, and the Electronic Medical Record.
|
Ÿ
|
|
Administrative module. EMRADMIN is the principal administrative module. It allows users with the appropriate security rights to access screens that may be used to define and modify the basic architectural structure that defines the business rules for the CPOE for the six general order entry types – drugs, labs, IV solutions, image tests, nursing orders, and dressings – as well as special order entry types, such as sliding scales, drug tapers and transfusions. EMRADMIN creates and modifies decision support algorithms that are called at multiple levels in the order entry sequence and operate as background processes and maintains the ward/bed configuration of the institution of a set of diagnoses, a custom set of system requisitions that may be required by the healthcare institution, a set of system user groups and user group rights and a set of system parameters that are used to determine the system configuration. We supply all of the content required for full function of the system at the time of installation. Our customers may modify any of the content at any time in plain language. EMRADMIN is a required module in the setting of a minimal EMR installation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Nursing module. The EMR nursing module (EMRNURSE) integrates all physician/nursing clinical functions at the order entry and clinical data entry levels. EMRNURSE contains a medication administration record that is automatically generated by the EMR according to a rules engine, which translates the physician’s prescription into the date-times for prescription administration. System rules are supplied by EMR at the time of installation and may vary for each individual clinical module. EMRNURSE also contains a plan of care and screen sets that allow for the recording and display of clinical information, including vital signs, glucometer-insulin record, input and output, and pain scale. Additional screens exist for the recording of the nursing history. The healthcare institution’s system administrator, through EMRADMIN, manages the basic structure of EMRNURSE. All of our clinical modules access EMRNURSE. EMRNURSE is a required module in the setting of a minimal EMR installation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Clinical module. The EMR clinical modules broadly correspond to the individual clinical specialty of medicine of the healthcare institution or a particular division or ward of the institution, such as EMRER, EMRSurgeon, EMRPediatrics and EMRICU. All of the patients in a particular ward may be linked to a single module or patients in a given ward may each be attached to different modules in accordance with the patient’s ailment. Each clinical module may have its own set of available drug listings, its own table of order sets and unique decision support algorithms. The look and feel of each clinical module is constant, though modules may contain unique screens, which may not be available elsewhere in the EMR Clinical Information System. For example, EMRER uses unique patient tracking screens; EMRICU, CCU, and ER contain unique results reporting screens. The health care institution’s system administrator, through EMRADMIN, manages the seed content of the clinical modules. At least one clinical module is required in the setting of a minimal EMR installation. Our system includes, as an option, a DICOM viewer embedded in the clinical signs and results reporting screens so that PACS images may be viewed directly within the clinical context of the EMR clinical data display screens.
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Electronic Medical Record. All clinical modules come with a complete Electronic Medical Record which can be used by physicians, consultants, nursing staff, and paramedical staff to record their admission and progress notes in a coded, menu-driven or free-text format, depending on the preference of the individual user. Clinicians can access all data related to their patient through the Electronic Medical Record. Clinical data entered into the Electronic Medical Record is available to review for the purposes of quality assurance by the clinical staff, administration and, where law permits, may be consulted by the patient.
|
Installation and Implementation
Delivery of an EMR to a customer consists of three broad phases: hardware installation, software implementation and training.
|
Ÿ
|
|
Hardware installation. Hardware may be installed by us or the customer’s technical staff according to our specific configuration. The scope of the hardware is determined by the number of beds and wards in the particular healthcare institution, as well as the institution’s physical layout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Software implementation. Our EMR software is configured based on a healthcare institution’s responses to our implementation questionnaire. The information obtained from the questionnaire is used to create the clinical content and populate the production database. Concurrent with managing and preparing this data, HL7 interfaces to other hospital systems such as Pharmacy, Laboratory, ADT and PACS will be designed, developed and tested by EMR and the system suppliers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Costs. Cost of implementation of an EMR can vary between $2 and $20 million depending on the size of the hospital and the nature, and functionality of the selected technology.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Training. Training begins well in advance of the installation. EMR has specific training programs for physicians, nurses and other hospital staff. In large hospitals, a pre-determined number of wards will go-live every two weeks until the entire hospital is in full production. EMR training personnel provide on-site support 24 hours per day until the hospital staff can use the system independently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
|
Helpdesk. The EMR helpdesk is available to our customers 24 hours per day, seven days per week for technical and functional assistance. EMR has the ability to monitor and update the system from a remote location.
|
Advertising and Brand Recognition
We have not advertised our products in any public forum or media, nor do we plan to do so. We rely on the quality of the EMR, its high rating by industry analysts and the building of a successful implementation track record with our existing customers to attract potential new customers.
Intellectual Property and Research and Development
We continue to improve and upgrade our system for better performance and to answer our customers’ specific needs. These development activities are often subcontracted to technical companies that specialize in these fields. All of our research and development work is proprietary to our company. During fiscal 2009, we did not incur any expenses relating to research and development.
We do not have any patents on our system or modules. We rely on trade secrets laws, confidentiality agreements and other contractual commitments to protect our proprietary research and development efforts and intellectual property. These protections may not be adequate to protect our proprietary interests. We cannot assure you that third party competitors will not obtain access of our technical information and exploit it for their own benefit. In such event, we may not have adequate funds available to prosecute actions to protect or to defend our proprietary rights. If our proprietary interests are divulged to the public and we do not have adequate funds to prevent third parties from using these interests for their own use, we may lose our competitive advantage, which may adversely affect our financial condition.
Our Industry
Overview
There are over 15,000 hospitals in western countries, including the United States and Canada, and more than 10,000 hospitals in Europe, which make up most of the potential market for EMRs and other products derived from the EMR proprietary technology platform. According to the Leapfrog Group, relatively few American hospitals have experimented with physician-based clinical support order entry. According to the Hospital Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) 2004 conference, less than 10% of hospitals have some form of CPOE or decision support. Management believes that between 10% to 15% of hospitals will adopt CPOE systems within the next four years.
Our target market, Canada’s public health care sector is worth more than $150 billion per year. As an enterprise, it would rank number 10 on the Fortune 500. Canada Health Infoway’s vision, the implementation and use of Electronic Health Records (EHR) records for all Canadians by 2016, is expected to deliver $6 to $7 billion in annual benefits.
The benefits of Electronic Health Records implementation as per Canada Health Infoway/Health Canada evaluation is $3.4 Billion per year savings [Inpatient ADE=$1.6 B/yr, Ambulatory ADE = $1.4 B/yr and Post Discharge ADE = $0.4 B/yr]
Through Canada’s Economic Action Plan, the federal government plans to invest up to $500 million in Canada Health Infoway. The funding would be used to support the goal of 50 percent of Canadians having an electronic health record by 2010, to speed up implementation of electronic medical record system in physicians’ offices, and to develop electronic systems that connect points of service (e.g., hospitals, pharmacies and community care facilities). Their secure systems would enable authorized health professionals across the country to access patient records quickly and easily
The Healthcare Information Technology Industry – Recent Developments
Modern hospitals are under increasing pressure to address mounting evidence of major increases in hospital death due to medical errors and ADE’s. According to the March 2000 report, “To Err is Human”, released by the Washington-based Institute of Medicine, up to 100,000 Americans die each year from adverse drug reactions, half of which it considered preventable. Since 2000, evaluations of deaths from ADE’s have been as high as 200,000 in the United States, 85,000 in England, and 23,000 in Canada.
Medical literature and recent publications from the HIMSS indicate that the introduction of Electronic Medical Record technology that would replace paper-based medical records could significantly reduce the incidence of ADE’s and help to contain rising medical costs by increasing the productivity of caregivers.
A coalition of some of America’s largest employers and healthcare purchasers helped to create the Leapfrog Group, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting information solutions for hospitals. According to the Leapfrog Group, CPOE systems with clinical decision support are deemed to be the core component of an effective clinical information system to replace paper-based records. To date, more than 500 hospitals in the United States have registered with the Leapfrog Group, pledging to move towards the new standards set by the organization for managing healthcare through information technology.
Modernization of the healthcare system is a major part of the national agenda of most western countries.
In the US for example, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has laid out important markers toward an “intelligent health system for the 21
st
century.” These include:
|
Ÿ
|
a secure, Web-based networking infrastructure;
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
physicians, hospitals and medical personnel using interoperable Electronic Medical Records;
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
web-based electronic medical records for every American, beginning with seniors enrolled in Medicare.
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
Medicare and financial incentives to encourage doctors to adopt clinical systems and prescribe medication and treatment electronically;
|
|
|
|
|
Ÿ
|
mandatory use of Electronic Medical Records by physicians during the next 10 years; and
|
|
Ÿ
|
medical databases, starting with the data of people in federal health programs that can be used for outcomes research, to identify participants for clinical trials, to allow real-time reporting of medication problems and health problems to improve care, and accelerate drug development, approval and recalls.
|
Competition
An overview of EMR/EHR Competition in Canada and their market share of installations (expressed as percentages) as of November 2009 follows Software vendor Practice Solutions Software Inc. with a market share of ½ of 1%, Healthscreen Solutions Inc. with a market share of 1%.96, P&P Data Systems Inc. with a market share of 1%, xwave with a market share of 1%, Nightingale Informatix Corporation with a market share of 0.072, CLINICARE Corporation with a market share of less than 1%, Jonoke Software Developments Inc. with a market share of 1/2%, McMaster University Department of Family Medicine with a market share of 1/3%, York-Med Systems Inc. with a market share of less than 1/2 %, ABELMed Inc. Alpha Global IT Inc., and other minor participants with negligible (less than 1/3 of 1%) market share.
Distribution of total EMR licenses in Ontario is approximately 3000 and the combined total of all other provinces are 8389 EMR licenses which makes it a total of 17% of Canadian doctors [11389] who are on either full or partial EMR/EHR system. This confirms a market potential of 83% [66,992 EMR/EHR licenses] going forward in 2010 with an estimated market value of $535,936,000
In the United States there are several large companies that develop and bring to market other forms of electronic medical record and CPOE systems, such as Cerner Corporation, Eclipsys Corporation, IDX System Corporation, HBOC-McKesson Corporation, Epic Systems Corporation, Medical Information Technology Incorporated, Misys Healthcare Systems, and more recently such global giants as General Electric, Siemens, IBM and Bell.
Management believes that integration of our EMR technology will offer customers a far richer integrated medical and clinical content delivered to the doctor at point of care, than any other system in terms of high-priority functionality, EMR is consistently rated among the leaders in all systems of its kind, offering us a significant quality advantage when competing for contracts. In addition, EMR’s Clinical Information System is flexible enough that it can be installed in smaller hospitals that are far less attractive to our major competitors, and tailored to the specific needs and policies of that institution. The EMR also provides a multi-lingual platform which may give us a competitive advantage in the international markets.
Due to the relatively lengthy sales cycle involved in the healthcare information technology industry, and the fact that we are significantly smaller and have less financial resources than our competitors, we face an initial disadvantage in the U.S. market. We will have to continue developing new, dynamic and flexible marketing strategies to remain competitive.
The healthcare technology industry is constantly undergoing rapid changes, with major software companies, information technology consulting service providers and system integrators, Internet start-ups, and other software companies having the potential to develop specialized healthcare systems to compete with our product. Management feels our success will hinge upon our ability to
continue developing and improving our system in a timely fashion, using the success of existing implementations to build a steady customer base and revenue stream while continuing to offer new product lines that meet the technology needs of the market.
We are also actively developing strategic alliances with partners who offer specialized services within the healthcare industry, such as management consultants, systems integrators, major engineering firms and outsourcing companies.
Our Suppliers
We depend on a limited number of third parties to manufacture and supply critical components for our products and services. The infrastructure configuration required to run the EMR application in a hospital setting includes products from Microsoft, Oracle, HP, Stratus, Citrix Systems, Verinex Technologies, Digital Persona, IBM, APC Software, NEC and Veritas Software. If any of these third party manufacturers should cease operations or refuse to sell components to us, we may have to suspend or cease operations. We do not have contracts with our suppliers. Supplier commitments are arranged on a project-by-project basis. If our suppliers do not fulfill their obligations, if they stop manufacturing and supplying components critical for our clinical solutions or if the terms for supply, including price, become commercially unreasonable, we may need to search for alternative sources for components. Our search for additional or alternate suppliers could result in significant delays to our system implementation process, added expense and hinder our ability to maintain or expand our business. Any of these events could require us to take unforeseen actions or devote additional resources to provide our products and services and could harm our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our financial condition.
Government Regulation and Legislation
EMR is not required to obtain any governmental approvals to operate in the healthcare technology market. However, the current climate of healthcare information technology legislation requires that companies active in the field be constantly vigilant as new industry norms and standards are tabled and finalized. It is important that governments and healthcare authorities continue to recognize the importance of healthcare reform and the use of information systems, since there rests the impetus for change, hence a healthy, growing market. EMR’s products are fully compliant with industry norms established by HIPAA and federal and industry policy makers concerning functionality, programming language, transaction code set, privacy, security and medical content.
In the Canadian context our products would require a preferred vendor status registration based on different provincial regulations which is generally seen as just a routine product and technology registration/endorsement
Employees
As of May 16, 2010, we had one full-time employee and two part-time employees.
Warranties
We do not issue warranties in connection with our services. All of our third-party products are offered with a warranty provided by the supplier of that product.
Insurance
We do not maintain any insurance and do not intend to maintain insurance in the future. Because we do not have any insurance, if we are made a party of a products liability action, we may not have sufficient funds to defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us which could cause us to cease operations.
Offices
Our administrative office is located at 2795 Barton Street, East, Unit 5, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8E 2J8, our telephone number is (905) 578-3232. We lease this space from Lorranie Salciccioli pursuant to a written lease. Month to month basis and our monthly rent is $500 inclusive

Conflicts of Interest
The only conflict that we foresee are that our officers and directors devote time to projects that do not involve us.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Other than as described in this section, to our knowledge, during the past ten years, no present or former director or executive officer of our company: (1) filed a petition under the federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law, nor had a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer appointed by a court for the business or present of such a person, or any partnership in which he was a general partner at or within two yeas before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he was an executive officer within two years before the time of such filing; (2) was convicted in a criminal proceeding or named subject of a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting the following activities: (i) acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment advisor, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director of any investment company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity; (ii) engaging in any type of business practice; (iii) engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of federal or state securities laws or federal commodity laws; (4) was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described above under this Item, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity; (5) was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission to have violated any federal or state securities law and the judgment in subsequently reversed, suspended or vacate; (6) was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated any federal commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated.
Audit Committee and Charter
We have a separately-designated audit committee of the board. Audit committee functions are performed by our board of directors. None of our directors are deemed independent. Three of our directors also hold positions as our officers. Our audit committee is responsible for: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; (4) engaging outside advisors; and, (5) funding for the outside auditory and any outside advisors engagement by the audit committee. A copy of our audit committee charter is filed as an exhibit to our 2007 Form 10-K.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a corporate code of ethics. We believe our code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code. A copy of the code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to our 2007 Form 10-K.
Disclosure Committee and Committee Charter
We have a disclosure committee and disclosure committee charter. Our disclosure committee is comprised of all of our officers and directors. The purpose of the committee is to provide assistance to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer in fulfilling their responsibilities regarding the identification and disclosure of material information about us and the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of our financial reports. A copy of the disclosure committee charter is filed as an exhibit to our 2007 Form 10-K.
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s directors, officers and persons who beneficially owned more than ten percent of the Company’s common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of common stock.
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to the Company during the fiscal years 2009 and 2008, no officer or director except one director failed to file their Form 3, 4 and 5 on a timely basis. Mr. Gandhi, our former Treasurer, Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, did not file his Form 3 until March 26, 2009. On August 12, 2008, Mr. Gandhi purchased 119,700 common shares. Vince Leitao, Samuel Baker, and John Cecil all failed to file Form 3s and have not done so as of the date of this report.

All compensation received by our officers and directors has been disclosed.
There are no stock option, retirement, pension, or profit sharing plans for the benefit of our officers and directors
Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards
We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.
Compensation of Directors
The members of our board of directors are not compensated for their services as directors. We have entered into employment agreement with Leonard Steinmetz, Samuel Baker, John Cecil, Mary Kricfalusi, and Vince Leitao. Each employment agreement is for a period of 5 years with a monthly salary of $12,500 per month or $62,500 per month for the 5 employees.
Indemnification
Under our Bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he/she is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him/her against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Common Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share. The holders of our common stock:
*
|
have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our board of directors;
|
*
|
are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;
|
*
|
do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and
|
*
|
are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote.
|
All shares of common stock now outstanding are fully paid for and non-assessable and all shares of common stock which are the subject of this offering, when issued, will be fully paid for and non-assessable. We refer you to our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and the applicable statutes of the State of Nevada for a more complete description of the rights and liabilities of holders of our securities.
Non-cumulative voting
Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors. After this offering is completed, assuming the sale of all of the shares of common stock, present stockholders will own approximately 55.56% of our outstanding shares.
Cash dividends
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.
Preferred Stock
We are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share. The terms of the preferred shares are at the discretion of the board of directors. Currently no preferred shares are issued and outstanding.
Anti-takeover provisions
There are no Nevada anti-takeover provisions that may have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

DIAMOND TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2010
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Diamond Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X related to smaller reporting companies. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes, which are included as part of the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2010. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 as reported in the 10-K have been omitted.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements do not purport to represent realizable or settlement values. However, the Company has incurred an operating loss. Such loss may impair its ability to obtain additional financing.
This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company has met its historical working capital requirements from the sale of common shares and loans from an officer/shareholder. In order not to burden the Company, the officer/shareholder has agreed to provide funding to the Company to pay its annual audit fees, filing costs and legal fees as long as the board of directors deems it necessary. However, there can be no assurance that such financial support shall be ongoing or available on terms or conditions acceptable to the Company.
NOTE 3 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common Stock
Between Jan 23, 2010 and March 4, 2010 we sold 1,133,664 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock at an offering price of $0.15 per share for gross proceeds of $170,050.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Diamond Technologies Inc.
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Diamond Technologies Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Printing Components Inc.
(a development stage company), as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DIAMOND TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OPERATIONS
Organization
Diamond Technologies, Inc., formerly, Printing Components, Inc. (the "DTI"), a development stage company, was incorporated in Nevada on December 12, 2006. The Company offers media, inks, printing, and graphic design services to the large format digital printing industry. The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31st. On December 31, 2009, the DTI closed an agreement with Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. and its shareholders (collectively “Rophe”) wherein the DTI acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Rophe. As a result of the Rophe transaction, DTI changed its business focus from selling printing equipment to manufacturing and developing software designed to take medical information from many sources and then depositing it into a single source as an electronic medical record for each patient.
DTI and its subsidiaries – Rophe shall be collectively referred throughout as the “Company”.
Basis of Presentation
The Company complies with United States Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”) guidelines to identify the Company as a development stage enterprise.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DTI and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rophe Medical Technologies, Inc.. Significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Earnings Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with accounting standards of Earnings per Share. Under the provision, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Depreciation
The cost of computers and furniture is depreciated over the estimated useful life of the related assets from 3 to 7 years.
Copyrights
Copyrights are stated at cost. According to the copyright laws in the United States of America, the life of a copyright is the author’s life plus 70 years, which is determined to be indefinite. The Company will review the value of the copyrights on an annual basis to determine if the value has been impaired.
Impairment of Long-lived Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for impairment of intangible assets in accordance with the accounting standards, which requires the Company to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability when there is event or circumstance that indicates the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable (when carrying amount exceeds the gross, undiscounted cash flows from use and disposition) and is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s (or asset group’s) fair value. Management reviewed its long-lived intangible assets and has not recorded any impairment related to these assets for fiscal 2009 or 2008.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OPERATIONS (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with accounting standards for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the accompanying balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1
- Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the company has the ability to access at the measurement date (examples include active exchange-traded equity securities, listed derivatives and most United States Government and agency securities).
Level 2
- Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets where trading occurs infrequently or whose values are based on quoted prices of instruments with similar attributes in active markets. Level 2 inputs include the following:
|
!
|
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets (examples include corporate and municipal bonds which trade infrequently);
|
|
!
|
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include interest rate and currency swaps); and
|
|
!
|
Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include certain securities and derivatives).
|
Level 3
- Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.
An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors. The Company uses judgment in determining fair value of assets and liabilities and Level 3 assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than Level 1 and Level 2 assets or liabilities.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (ASC 718). Under the provisions of ASC 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OPERATIONS (continued)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements do not purport to represent realizable or settlement values. However, the Company has incurred an operating loss. Such loss may impair its ability to obtain additional financing.
This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company has met its historical working capital requirements from the sale of common shares and loans from an officer/shareholder. In order not to burden the Company, the officer/shareholder has agreed to provide funding to the Company to pay its annual audit fees, filing costs and legal fees as long as the board of directors deems it necessary. However, there can be no assurance that such financial support shall be ongoing or available on terms or conditions acceptable to the Company.
NOTE 2 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)
Common Stock
On December 12, 2006, the Company issued 15,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, to its initial shareholders in exchange for $50 in cash. In the year ending December 31, 2007, the Company sold 1,471,502 shares of common stock at $0.083333 per share for total proceeds of $122,625 and 250,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share for total proceeds of $50,000.
On December 11, 2009, the Company issued 3,000,000 of the Company’s common shares to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. ("Rophe"). (See note 6).
On December 30, 2009 the Company sold 150,000 shares of its common stock at $0.10 per share to its President for proceeds of $15,000. Because the sale price was below the last stock sale in the public market of $0.15 per share, the Company considered $7,500 as compensatory and expensed the amount as Stock based Compensation with a corresponding credit to Paid-in-capital.
On March 16, 2010, the Rophe Acquisition payment terms were amended, the Company issued additional 3,000,000 of the Company’s common shares in lieu of $200,000 payable on March 31, 2010 and $250,000 payable on April 30, 2010. (See note 6)
Stock spit
On February 8, 2008 the Board of Directors approved a three-for-one stock split effective February 25, 2008. All references in the financial statements and related notes related to the number of shares and per share amounts of the common stock have been retroactively restated to reflect the impact of the February 25, 2008 stock split.
NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
A shareholder/officer has provided funding to pay for the initial operating expenses of the Company. The amount of $48,053 was provided to the company in supporting company’s operation for the year ended December 31, 2009.
NOTE 4 – DUE TO SHAREHOLDER
Amounts due to officer/shareholder are non-interest bearing and pay on demand.

NOTE 6 – ROPHE ACQUISITION
On December 11, 2009, an agreement was entered into by the Company to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rophe Medical Technologies Inc. ("Rophe") for cash consideration of $1,200,000 and 3,000,000 of the Company’s common shares (the “Rophe Acquisition”).

This transaction was closed on December 31, 2009.
On March16, 2010, the Rophe Acquisition payment terms were amended as follows:
$50,000 that was due by January 30, 2010 is to be paid $35,000 by March 5, 2010, and $15,000 by March 31, 2010. $200,000 that was due on March 31, 2010, and $250,000 that was due on April 30, 2010; of the total of $450,000, $400,000 was converted to 3,000,000 shares of common stock on March 16, 2010 and the remaining balance of $50,000 is payable March 31, 2010.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net income tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income taxes. The Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:

Net operating loss carry forwards totaled approximately $751,000 at December 31, 2009. The net operating loss carry forwards will begin to expire in the year 2027 if not utilized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has recorded a valuation allowance at December 31, 2009 due to uncertainty of realizing the deferred tax assets.
Utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carry forwards may be limited based on changes in ownership as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 382.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
A.
|
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
|
|
|
(1)
|
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:
|
|
|
|
(a)
|
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
|
|
|
|
(b)
|
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
|
|
|
|
(c)
|
include any additional or changed material information with respect to the plan of distribution.
|
|
(2)
|
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
|
|
(3)
|
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
|
|
|
(4)
|
To provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
|
|
|
(5)
|
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of a registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
|
|
(6)
|
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
|
(7)
|
For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
|
|
|
|
Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
Provided however,
that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
|
|
|
(8)
|
For the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities:
|
|
|
|
The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
|
|
|
(a)
|
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 of this chapter;
|
|
|
|
(b)
|
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
|
|
|
|
(c)
|
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
|
|
|
|
(d)
|
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
|
|
B.
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
|
C.
|
To provide to the underwriter at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
|
|
D.
|
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
|
|
|
(1)
|
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
|
|
|
(2)
|
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-
effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
|

RE:

Ladies/Gentlemen:
We have acted as special securities counsel to Diamond Technologies Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) of 27,300,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Registered Shares”) for resale by those certain selling shareholders named in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”).
In connection with rendering this opinion, we have examined the originals, or certified, conformed or reproduction copies, of all such records, agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed relevant or necessary as the basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. In all such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on original or certified copies and the conformity to original or certified copies of all copies submitted to us as conformed or reproduction copies. As to various questions of fact relevant to this opinion, we have relied upon, and assumed the accuracy of, certificates and oral or written statements and other information of or from public officials, officers or representatives of the Company, and others.

We have reviewed: (a) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended; (b) the Bylaws of the Company, as amended; (c) Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company pertaining to the Registered Shares; (d) the Registration Statement; and (e) such other corporate documents, records, papers and certificates as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of the opinions expressed herein.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and to the other qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Registered Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The opinions herein are limited to the federal laws of the United States of America and the applicable laws of the State of Nevada, including the Nevada Constitution, all applicable provisions of Nevada statutes and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws, as such laws presently exist and to the facts as they presently exist. We express no opinion as to laws of any other jurisdiction. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion should the laws be changed after the effective date of the Registration Statement by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act.

Prior to each Closing Date, (I) the Company shall deliver to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, certificates representing the Shares to be issued to the Investor on such date and registered in the name of the Investor; and (II) the Investor shall deliver to the Company the Purchase Price to be paid for such Shares, determined as set forth in Section 2(B). In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Securities and provided that the Company's transfer agent then is participating in The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer ("FAST") program, upon request of the Investor, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Securities by crediting the account of the Investor's prime broker (as specified by the Investor within a reasonably in advance of the Investor's notice) with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system.
The Company understands that a delay in the issuance of Securities beyond the Closing Date could result in economic damage to the Investor. After the Effective Date, as compensation to the Investor for such loss, the Company agrees to make late payments to the Investor for late issuance of Securities (delivery of Securities after the applicable Closing Date) in accordance with the following schedule (where "No. of Days Late" is defined as the number of trading days beyond the Closing Date, with the Amounts being cumulative.):
|
|
|
LATE PAYMENT FOR EACH
NO. OF DAYS LATE $10,000 WORTH OF COMMON STOCK

2 $200
3 $300
4 $400
5 $500
6 $600
7 $700
8 $800
9 $900
10 $1,000
Over 10 $1,000 + $200 for each
Business Day late beyond 10 days
|
The Company shall make any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand by the Investor. Nothing herein shall limit the Investor's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to issue and deliver the Securities to the Investor, except that such late payments shall offset any such actual damages incurred by the Investor, and any Open Market Adjustment Amount, as set forth below.
(H)
OVERALL LIMIT ON COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE
. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if during the Open Period the Company becomes listed on an exchange that limits the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued without shareholder approval, then the number of Shares issuable by the Company and purchasable by the Investor, shall not exceed that number of the shares of Common Stock that may be issuable without shareholder approval (the "Maximum Common Stock Issuance"). If such issuance of shares of Common Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market, then the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with applicable law and the By-laws and Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, if such issuance of shares of Common Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market. The parties understand and agree that the Company's failure to seek or obtain such shareholder approval shall in no way adversely affect the validity and due authorization of the issuance and sale of Securities or the Investor's obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to purchase a number of Shares in the aggregate up to the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation, and that such approval pertains only to the applicability of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in this Section 2(H).
(I)
ADDITIONAL PENALTIES
. If, by the third (3rd) business day after the Closing Date, the Company fails to deliver any portion of the shares of the Put to the Investor (the "Put Shares Due") and the Investor purchases, in an open market transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock necessary to make delivery of shares which would have been delivered if the full amount of the shares to be delivered to the Investor by the Company (the "Open Market Share Purchase") , then the Company shall pay to the Investor, in addition to any other amounts due to Investor pursuant to the Put, and not in lieu thereof, the Open Market Adjustment Amount (as defined below). The "Open Market Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Investor's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Open Market Share Purchase minus (y) the net proceeds (after brokerage commissions, if any) received by the Investor from the sale of the Put Shares Due. The Company shall pay the Open Market Adjustment Amount to the Investor in immediately available funds within five (5) business days of written demand by the Investor. By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, if the Investor purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) of $11,000 to cover an Open Market Purchase with respect to shares of Common Stock it sold for net proceeds of $10,000, the Open Market Purchase Adjustment Amount which the Company will be required to pay to the Investor will be $1,000.
(J)
LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OF OWNERSHIP
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Investor be entitled to purchase that number of Shares, which when added to the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act), by the Investor, would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the 1934 Act.

The Investor acknowledges that this Agreement and all or part of the Equity Line Transaction Documents may be deemed to be "material contracts" as that term is defined by Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-B, and that the Company may therefore be required to file such documents as exhibits to reports or registration statements filed under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act.

The normal rule that ambiguities shall be interpreted against the drafting party shall not apply in the instant case.
(O) REMEDIES. The Investor shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which the Investor has by law. Any person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any default or breach of any provision of this Agreement, including the recovery of reasonable attorneys fees and costs, and to exercise all other rights granted by law.
(P) PAYMENT SET ASIDE.

Nothing contained in this Section 13 shall be construed to mean that such persons or entities other than the Investor (without the written consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information) may not obtain non-public information in the course of conducting due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent any such persons or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that based on such due diligence by such persons or entities, that the Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

(a)
The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective within ninety (90) days after the Execution Date and shall keep such Registration Statement effective until the earlier to occur of the date on which
(A)
the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities; or
(B)
the Investor has no right to acquire any additional shares of Common Stock under the Investment Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the “
Registration Period
”). The Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to respond to all SEC comments within seven (7) business days from receipt of such comments by the Company.

which it is required by law to provide to the Company, including the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and the Company’s obligations set forth above shall be conditioned on the receipt of such information.
(b)
The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investor thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises (based on the then Purchase Price of the Common Stock and other relevant factors on which the Company reasonably elects to rely), assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty (30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.
(c)
The Company shall make available to the Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement and its legal counsel without charge:
(i)
|
promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC at least one (1) copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such Registration Statement(s), any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC and any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives;
|
(ii)
|
upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, the Company shall make available copies of the prospectus, via EDGAR, included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto; and
|
(iii)
|
such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.
|
(d)
The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to:
(i)
|
register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such states in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests;
|
(ii)
|
prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period;
|
(iii)
|
take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and
|
(iv)
|
take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;
provided, however
, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to:
|
a.
|
qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), or
|
b.
|
subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction.
|
The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.
(e)
As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify Investor in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (hereinafter referred to as “
Registration Default
”) and use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act (as defined below) and to be incorporated by reference in the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and make available copies of such supplement or amendment to the Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor:
(i)
|
When a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (the Company will prepare notification of such effectiveness which shall be delivered to the Investor on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), additionally, the Company will promptly provide to the Investor, a copy of the effectiveness order prepared by the SEC once it is received by the Company;
|
(ii)
|
Of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information;
|
(iii)
|
Of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate;
|
(iv)
|
In the event the Registration Statement is no longer effective; and / or
|
(v)
|
If the Registration Statement is stale as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials or otherwise.
|
The Company acknowledges that its failure to cure the Registration Default within ten (10) business days will cause the Investor to suffer damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties agree that it is appropriate to include a provision for liquidated damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. It is the intention of the parties that interest payable under any of the terms of this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under any applicable law. If a law, which applies to this Agreement, which sets the maximum interest amount, is finally interpreted so that the interest in connection with this Agreement exceeds the permitted limits, then:
(1)
any such interest shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the interest to the permitted limit; and
(2)
any sums already collected (if any) from the Company which exceed the permitted limits will be refunded to the Company. The Investor may choose to make this refund by reducing the amount that the Company owes under this Agreement or by making a direct payment to the Company. If a refund reduces the amount that the Company owes the Investor, the reduction will be treated as a partial payment.
(f)
The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor holding Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding concerning the effectiveness of the registration statement.
(g)
The Company shall permit the Investor and one (1) legal counsel, designated by the Investor, to review and comment upon the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) calendar day prior to their filing with the SEC. However, any postponement of a filing of a Registration Statement or any postponement of a request for acceleration or any postponement of the effective date or effectiveness of a Registration Statement by written request of the Investor (collectively, the "Investor's Delay") shall not act to trigger any penalty of any kind, or any cash amount due or any in-kind amount due the Investor from the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company
and the Investor. The event(s) of an Investor's Delay shall act to suspend all obligations of any kind or nature of the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor.
(h)
At the request of the Investor, the Company's counsel shall furnish to the Investor an opinion letter confirming the effectiveness of the registration statement. Such opinion letter shall be issued as of the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement and be in a form suitable to the Investor.
(i)
The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor unless:
(i)
|
Disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws;
|
(ii)
|
The disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement;
|
(iii)
|
The release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction; or
|
(iv)
|
Such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement.
|
The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the Investor and allow the Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order covering such information.
(j)
The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement on the Principal Market. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding sentence, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(j).
(k)
The Company shall cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the prompt preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as
the case may be, as the Investor may reasonably request (and after any sales of such Registrable Securities by the Investor, such certificates not bearing any restrictive legend).
(l)
The Company shall provide a transfer agent for all the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto.
(m)
If requested by the Investor, the Company shall:
(i)
|
As soon as reasonably practical incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably determines should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering;
|
(ii)
|
Make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably possible after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and
|
(iii)
|
Supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by the Investor.
|
(n)
The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.
(o)
The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.
(p)
Within one (1) business day after the Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities, with copies to the Investor, confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.
(q)
The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.
Section 4.

(c)
Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.

Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be
subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
(d)
The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to
(i)
any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and
(ii)
any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

provided, however
, that:
(i)
no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6;
