   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The following (a)&amp;#160;condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December&amp;#160;31, 2011, which has been derived from
   audited financial statements, and (b)&amp;#160;the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of SafeStitch Medical, Inc. (&amp;#8220;SafeStitch&amp;#8221; or the &amp;#8220;Company&amp;#8221;) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
   generally accepted in the United States (&amp;#8220;GAAP&amp;#8221;) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule&amp;#160;8-03 of Regulation&amp;#160;S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
   by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended
   September&amp;#160;30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December&amp;#160;31, 2012. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
   financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December&amp;#160;31, 2011 included in the Company&amp;#8217;s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&amp;#8220;SEC&amp;#8221;) on March&amp;#160;30, 2012. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;SafeStitch Medical, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, &amp;#8220;SafeStitch&amp;#8221; or the &amp;#8220;Company&amp;#8221;) is a
   developmental stage medical device company focused on the development of medical devices that manipulate tissues for endoscopic and minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of obesity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (&amp;#8220;GERD&amp;#8221;),
   Barrett&amp;#8217;s Esophagus, esophageal obstructions, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, hernia formation and other intraperitoneal abnormalities. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;
   Cellular Technical Services Company, Inc. (&amp;#8220;Cellular&amp;#8221;), a non-operating public company, was incorporated in 1988 as NCS Ventures Corp. under the laws of the State of Delaware. On July&amp;#160;25,
   2007 Cellular entered into a Share Transfer, Exchange and Contribution Agreement (the &amp;#8220;Share Exchange&amp;#8221;) with SafeStitch LLC, a Virginia limited liability company. On September&amp;#160;4, 2007, Cellular acquired all of the members&amp;#8217; equity
   interests in SafeStitch LLC in exchange for 11,256,369 shares of Cellular&amp;#8217;s common stock, which represented a majority of Cellular&amp;#8217;s outstanding shares immediately following the Share Exchange. Effective January&amp;#160;8, 2008, Cellular
   changed its name to SafeStitch Medical, Inc. and increased the aggregate number of shares of capital stock that may be issued from 35,000,000 to 250,000,000, comprising 225,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the &amp;#8220;Common
   Stock&amp;#8221;), and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of SafeStitch LLC, with SafeStitch LLC as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). The
   historical financial statements prior to September&amp;#160;4, 2007 are those of SafeStitch LLC, which began operations on September&amp;#160;15, 2005. The accompanying financial statements give retroactive effect to the recapitalization as if it had
   occurred on September&amp;#160;15, 2005 (inception). &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
   Company will continue as a going concern. For the period from September&amp;#160;15,&amp;#160;2005 (inception)&amp;#160;through September&amp;#160;30, 2012, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $28.3 million and has not generated positive cash flows from
   operations. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company has been dependent upon equity financing and loans from stockholders to meet its obligations and
   sustain operations. The Company&amp;#8217;s efforts have been principally devoted to developing its technologies and commercializing its products. Based upon its current cash position, availability under the extended term of its $4.0 million Note and
   Security Agreement (the &amp;#8220;Credit Facility&amp;#8221;) with both The Frost Group LLC (&amp;#8220;The Frost Group&amp;#8221;) and the Company&amp;#8217;s President and CEO, Jeffrey G. Spragens, and by monitoring its discretionary expenditures, management believes
   that the Company may be able to fund its existing operations through June&amp;#160;30, 2013 when the Credit Facility matures. However, given the short time period until the Credit Facility matures and the probable inability to pay back the amounts due
   at maturity on June&amp;#160;30, 2013, the Company is exploring more permanent or longer term financing alternatives. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company
   does not currently generate sufficient revenue from sales of the AMID&amp;#8482; Hernia Fixation Device (the &amp;#8220;AMID HFD&amp;#8221;) and external financing will therefore be necessary in order to fund the Company&amp;#8217;s planned operations, including the
   continued development of our Intraluminal Gastroplasty Device for Obesity and GERD (&amp;#8220;Gastroplasty Device&amp;#8221;), and the anticipated expansion in 2013 of clinical trials for certain of the Company&amp;#8217;s product candidates. The Company has
   taken several steps to preserve cash, including eliminating staff and focusing efforts solely on sales of the AMID HFD and development of our Gastroplasty Device. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, further
   reduce the scope of or eliminate its research and development programs, reduce its planned commercialization efforts or obtain funds through arrangements with collaborators or others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain
   product candidates that it might otherwise seek to develop or commercialize independently. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;Although the Company is seeking to secure additional funds through the issuance of
   equity and/or debt, no assurance can be given that additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. Unless the Credit Facility Maturity Date is extended or replaced with similar terms, additional funding will be
   required to repay both the Credit Facility and to continue operations. This uncertainty, along with the Company&amp;#8217;s limited remaining cash balances, raises substantial doubt about the Company&amp;#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern.
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary as a result of the outcome of
   such uncertainty. In addition to securing additional funds, the Company&amp;#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern is ultimately dependent upon generating revenues from those products that do not require further marketing clearance by the U.S.
   Food and Drug Administration (&amp;#8220;FDA&amp;#8221;), obtaining FDA clearance to market its other product candidates, and achieving profitable operations and generating sufficient cash flows from operations to meet future obligations. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOTE 2 &amp;#8211; SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Consolidation.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
   of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Isis Tele-Communications, Inc., which has no current operations, and SafeStitch LLC. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Use of estimates.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;The preparation of financial statements
   in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (&amp;#8220;GAAP&amp;#8221;) requires management to make estimates and assumptions, such as useful lives of property and equipment, that affect the reported amounts of assets and
   liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Cash and cash equivalents&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;. &lt;/i&gt;We consider all highly liquid investments
   with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company holds cash and cash equivalent balances in banks and other financial institutions, and includes overnight repurchase agreements collateralizing its depository
   bank accounts (sweep accounts) in its cash balances. Balances in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (&amp;#8220;FDIC&amp;#8221;) limitations may not be insured. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Allowances for Doubtful Accounts. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;The Company provides an allowance for
   receivables it believes it may not collect in full. Receivables are written off when they are deemed to be uncollectible and all collection attempts have ceased. The amount of bad debt recorded each period and the resulting adequacy of the allowance
   for doubtful accounts at the end of each period are determined using a combination of customer-by-customer analysis of the Company&amp;#8217;s accounts receivable each period and subjective assessments of the Company&amp;#8217;s future bad debt exposure.
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Inventories. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market using the weighted average cost method
   and are evaluated for impairment when conditions exist that suggests impairment may be necessary. The $1.7 million inventory balance at September&amp;#160;30, 2012 consists of $1.0 million in components, $664,000 in finished units of the AMID HFD and
   $19,000 in standard mesh. Scrap materials and quality testing costs are included in Cost of Goods Sold (&amp;#8220;COGS&amp;#8221;), as incurred. Provisions for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are made based on management&amp;#8217;s analysis of
   inventory levels, obsolescence and future sales forecasts. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Property and equipment.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;Property and equipment are carried at cost
   less accumulated depreciation. Major additions and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs that do not extend the lives of assets are expensed. Gain or loss, if any, on the disposition of fixed assets is recognized currently in
   operations. Depreciation is calculated primarily on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Revenue Recognition. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Revenue from product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of
   an arrangement exists, the goods are shipped and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and the collection of the sales proceeds is reasonably assured. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Advertising Costs. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising and
   promotional costs are included in selling, general and administrative costs and expenses for all periods presented, and totaled $22,000 and $106,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012. Advertising and
   promotional costs and expenses totaled $2,000 and $11,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Research and development.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Research and development costs principally represent
   salaries of the Company&amp;#8217;s medical and biomechanical engineering professionals, material and shop costs associated with manufacturing product prototypes and payments to third parties for clinical trials and additional product development and
   testing. All research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Patent costs.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;Costs incurred in connection with acquiring
   patent rights and the protection of proprietary technologies are charged to expense as incurred. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stock-based compensation.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The Company
   accounts for all share-based payments to employees and directors, based on their grant date fair values. Compensation for share-based payments to non-employees is based on the fair value at the measurement date, which is generally the performance
   completion date. The fair value is initially measured at the grant date and subsequently measured at each reporting period until the final measurement date. The fair value of the Company&amp;#8217;s stock option awards is expensed over the vesting life
   of the underlying stock options using the graded vesting method, with each tranche of vesting options valued separately. Stock-based compensation is included in general and administrative costs and expenses for all periods presented. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Therapeutic discovery project tax credit.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The Company
   records the therapeutic discovery project tax credit on an accrual basis when the credit is considered realized, which is generally when approved by the government agency. Such credit is reported as other income in the accompanying financial
   statements. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Fair value of financial instruments.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The carrying amounts of
   cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate fair value based on their short-term maturity. Related party receivables and stockholder loans are carried at cost. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Long-lived assets.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The Company reviews the carrying
   values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be recoverable. Any long-lived assets held for disposal are reported at the lower of their
   carrying amounts or fair value less costs to sell. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Income taxes.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes,
   which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities. The Company&amp;#8217;s policy is to
   record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, when the deferred tax asset is not recoverable. The Company considers estimated future taxable income or loss and other available evidence when assessing the need for its deferred tax
   valuation allowance. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Comprehensive income (loss).&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;Comprehensive income (loss) is defined
   as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The Company&amp;#8217;s comprehensive net loss is equal to its net loss for all periods presented, and, as a
   result, no statement of comprehensive income (loss) has been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;On November&amp;#160;13, 2007, the Board of Directors and a majority of the Company&amp;#8217;s stockholders approved the
   SafeStitch Medical, Inc. 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan (the &amp;#8220;2007 Plan&amp;#8221;), which was amended on June&amp;#160;19, 2012 to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance to 5,000,000. Under the 2007 Plan, which is
   administered by the Compensation Committee, the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and/or deferred stock to employees, officers, directors, consultants and vendors up to an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of
   Common Stock, which are fully reserved for future issuance. The exercise price of stock options or stock appreciation rights may not be less than the fair market value of the Company&amp;#8217;s shares at the date of grant and, within any 12 month
   period, no person may receive stock options or stock appreciation rights for more than one million shares. Additionally, no stock options or stock appreciation rights granted under the 2007 Plan may have a term exceeding ten years. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company granted 813,500 and 562,500 stock options under the 2007 Plan during the nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and 2011,
   respectively, including 218,000 and 68,000 stock options that were issued to consultants. The options granted during 2012 were issued at an exercise price ranging from $0.65 to $0.85 per share and had an estimated aggregate grant date fair value of
   $441,000. The options granted during 2011 were issued at an exercise price of $1.12 per share and had an estimated aggregate grant date fair value of $502,000. The weighted average grant date fair value of the options granted during the nine months
   ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.54 per share and $0.89 per share, respectively. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;Total stock-based compensation
   recorded for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 was $113,000 and $336,000, respectively. Total stock-based compensation recorded for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011 was $98,000 and $240,000, respectively.
   The stock-based compensation recorded for the nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011 included a credit of $113,000 for a change in forfeiture experience. All stock-based compensation is included in selling, general and administrative costs and
   expenses. The fair values of options granted are estimated on the date of their grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the assumptions included in the table below. The fair value of the Company&amp;#8217;s stock option awards is
   expensed over the vesting life of the underlying stock options using the graded vesting method, with each tranche of vesting options valued separately. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Common Stock. The risk-free
   interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock option award is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury bonds on the grant date with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock option. The expected life of stock option awards
   granted to employees and non-employee directors is based upon the &amp;#8220;simplified&amp;#8221; method for &amp;#8220;plain vanilla&amp;#8221; options described in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.&amp;#160;107, as amended by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.&amp;#160;110.
   The expected life of all other stock option awards is the contractual term of the option. Forfeiture rates are based on management&amp;#8217;s estimates.
   The fair value of each option granted during the nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and 2011 was estimated using the following
   assumptions. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   September&amp;#160;30, 2012. At September&amp;#160;30, 2012, there was approximately $333,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested employee and director share-based compensation arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized

   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;No tax benefits were attributed to the stock-based compensation expense because a valuation

   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Credit Facility&lt;/i&gt;. In connection with the acquisition of SafeStitch LLC, the Company entered into a Note and
   Security Agreement (the &amp;#8220;Credit Facility&amp;#8221;) with both The Frost Group and Jeffrey G. Spragens, the Company&amp;#8217;s Chief Executive Officer and President and a director. The Frost Group is a Florida limited liability company whose members
   include Frost Gamma Investments Trust (&amp;#8220;Frost Gamma&amp;#8221;), a trust controlled by Dr.&amp;#160;Phillip Frost, the largest beneficial holder of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, Dr.&amp;#160;Jane&amp;#160;H. Hsiao, the Company&amp;#8217;s
   Chairman of the Board, and Steven D. Rubin, a director. The Credit Facility provides $4.0 million in total available borrowings, consisting of $3.9 million from The Frost Group and $100,000 from Mr.&amp;#160;Spragens. The Company has granted a security
   interest in all present and subsequently acquired collateral in order to secure prompt, full and complete payment of the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. The collateral includes all assets of the Company, inclusive of intellectual
   property (patents, patent rights, trademarks, service marks, etc.). Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at a 10% annual rate. The Credit Facility had an initial term of 28 months, expiring in December 2009, and was
   amended on four occasions to extend the Maturity Date, which is now June&amp;#160;30, 2013. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;In connection with the Credit
   Facility, the Company granted warrants to purchase an aggregate of 805,521 shares of Common Stock to The Frost Group and Mr.&amp;#160;Spragens. The fair value of the warrants was determined to be $1,985,000 on the grant date based on the Black-Scholes
   valuation model using the following assumptions: expected volatility of 82%, dividend yield of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 4.88% and expected life of 10 years. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as deferred financing costs and is being amortized over the life of the
   Credit Facility. The Company recorded amortization expense related to these deferred financing costs of $2,000 and $7,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and $5,000 and $36,000, respectively, for the three
   and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011. In October 2012, The Frost Group and Mr.&amp;#160;Spragens exercised the warrants for the purchase of 805,521 shares of Common Stock. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company borrowed $300,000 under the Credit Facility during September 2012. The Company did not recognized interest expense related to
   the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility for the three months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012. The Company has a $300,000 outstanding balance and $3,700,000 available under the Credit Facility as of September&amp;#160;30, 2012. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   President and Chief Executive Officer and Richard Pfenniger, a member of the Company&amp;#8217;s Board of Directors. Frost Gamma and Dr.&amp;#160;Hsiao each purchased 4,500,000 shares, Mr.&amp;#160;Spragens purchased 250,000 shares, and Mr.&amp;#160;Pfenniger
   purchased 125,000 shares. The Company issued the 2012 PIPE Shares in reliance upon the exemption from registration under Section&amp;#160;4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &amp;#8220;Securities Act&amp;#8221;), and Rule 506 of Regulation D

   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted
   average number of common shares outstanding for the period reported. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding for the period reported. Diluted potential common shares
   consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock. In computing diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and 2011, no adjustment has
   been made to the weighted average outstanding common shares as the assumed exercise of outstanding options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock is anti-dilutive. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;On May&amp;#160;26, 2006, SafeStitch LLC entered into an exclusive license and development agreement (the &amp;#8220;Creighton

   the exclusive right to manufacture, use and sell the product candidates. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;Pursuant to the Creighton Agreement, the Company is
   obligated to pay Creighton, on a quarterly basis, a royalty of 1.5% of the revenue collected worldwide from the sale of any product licensed under the Creighton Agreement, less certain amounts including, without limitation, chargebacks, credits,
   taxes, duties and discounts or rebates. The Creighton Agreement does not provide for minimum royalties. Also pursuant to the Creighton Agreement, the Company agreed to invest, in the aggregate, at least $2.5 million over 36 months, beginning
   May&amp;#160;26, 2006, towards development of any licensed product. This $2.5 million investment obligation excluded the first $150,000 of costs related to the prosecution of patents, which the Company invested outside of the Creighton Agreement. The
   Company is further obligated to pay to Creighton an amount equal to 20% of certain of the Company&amp;#8217;s research and development expenditures as reimbursement for the use of Creighton&amp;#8217;s facilities. Failure to comply with the payment
   obligations above will result in all rights in the licensed patents and know-how reverting back to Creighton. As of December&amp;#160;31, 2007, the Company had satisfied the $2.5 million investment obligation described above. The Company recorded
   research and development costs and expenses related to the 20% facility reimbursement obligation totaling approximately $10,000 and $34,000, respectively for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012, and $12,000 and $33,000,
   respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOTE 10 &amp;#8211; INCOME TAXES &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish
   deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of the Company&amp;#8217;s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled.
   A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All of the Company&amp;#8217;s deferred tax assets have been fully reserved by a
   valuation allowance due to management&amp;#8217;s uncertainty regarding the future profitability of the Company. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company has
   recognized no adjustment for uncertain tax provisions. SafeStitch recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in selling, general and administrative costs and expenses; however no such provisions for accrued interest and
   penalties related to uncertain tax positions have been recorded as of September&amp;#160;30, 2012 or December&amp;#160;31, 2011. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The
   tax years 2009-2011 remain open to examination by the major tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;As more fully described in Note 5, the Company entered into a $4.0 million Credit Facility with both Jeffrey G.
   Spragens, the Company&amp;#8217;s President, Chief Executive Officer and director, and The Frost Group. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;The Company entered into a five-year lease for office space in Miami, Florida with a
   company controlled by Dr.&amp;#160;Frost. The non-cancelable lease, which commenced January&amp;#160;1, 2008, provides for a 4.5% annual rent increase over the life of the lease. The Miami office lease was amended in August 2011 to include additional office
   space in the same building, and current rental payments under the lease are approximately $19,000 per month. The Company recorded rent expense related to the Miami lease totaling approximately $73,000 and $198,000, respectively, for the three and
   nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012, and $51,000 and $145,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:8%"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:times new roman" size="2"&gt;
   Dr.&amp;#160;Hsiao, Dr.&amp;#160;Frost and director Steven Rubin are each significant stockholders and/or directors of Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. (&amp;#8220;NIMS&amp;#8221;), a publicly-traded medical device
   company, Aero Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (&amp;#8220;Aero&amp;#8221;), a privately-held pharmaceutical distribution company that dissolved in December 2011, Tiger X Medical, Inc. (&amp;#8220;Tiger X&amp;#8221;) (formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc.), a publicly-traded
   former medical device company, and SearchMedia Holdings Limited (&amp;#8220;SearchMedia&amp;#8221;), a publicly-traded media company operating primarily in China, and Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (&amp;#8220;Sorrento&amp;#8221;), a publicly-traded development stage
   biopharmaceutical company. Director Richard Pfenniger is also a shareholder of NIMS. The Company&amp;#8217;s Chief Financial Officer also serves as the Chief Financial Officer and supervises the accounting staffs of NIMS and, until its dissolution, Aero,
   under a Board-approved cost sharing arrangement whereby the total salaries of the accounting staffs of the three companies are shared. Aero has not participated in the cost sharing arrangement since June&amp;#160;30, 2011 and was dissolved in December
   2011. Since December 2009, the Company&amp;#8217;s Chief Legal Officer has served under a similar Board-approved cost sharing arrangement as Corporate Counsel of SearchMedia and as the Chief Legal Officer of each of NIMS and Tiger X, and from June 2011
   through September&amp;#160;19, 2012, as Corporate Counsel for Sorrento. The Company has recorded reductions to selling, general and administrative costs and expenses to account for the sharing of costs under these arrangements of $51,000 and $154,000,
   respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2012, and $51,000 and $205,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September&amp;#160;30, 2011. Aggregate accounts receivable from NIMS, Aero, Tiger X, Sorrento and
   SearchMedia were approximately $45,000 and $66,000 as of September&amp;#160;30, 2012 and December&amp;#160;31, 2011, respectively. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities. The Company&amp;#8217;s policy is to
   record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, when the deferred tax asset is not recoverable. The Company considers estimated future taxable income or loss and other available evidence when assessing the need for its deferred tax
   valuation allowance. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The Company&amp;#8217;s comprehensive net loss is equal to its net loss for all periods presented, and, as a
   result, no statement of comprehensive income (loss) has been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
