Capital Investment Strategy Commercial option #1 (License) will require an initial capital investment of $400,000 for patent protection, FDA approval, field testing, prototype development, and promotion. See page 26 for an itemized budget listing. Commercial option #2 (Manufacture) will require an initial capital investment of $400,000 for promotion, prototype development, and field testing, and an additional $1.47 million for the implementation of the first production line. The Option #2 capital summary13 (in thousands of dollars) is as follows:

All capital expenditures beyond the first two years will be financed through retained earnings. Zif plans to grow through the investment of retained earnings, thus no dividends are expected to be paid out in the first six years of operations. A friendly acquisition or an initial public offering will be made by year six to allow initial investors to divest from Zif. In general, Zif will invest very conservatively to minimize risk and so as not to outgrow its resources or capacity to expand. Based on investor opinions, company resources, and realized profits, Zif may grow faster than outlined below through the acquisition of debt beyond the 10% debt to equity established in this plan.

Based on the scenarios above, all cases provide excellent financial results with minimal leverage. Risks The risks associated with this plan are as follows: Design Problems (5%) This will be minimized through extensive prototyping and field testing. Patent Infringement / Litigation (15)% Several firms have patented safety syringe ideas, but none are identical or very close to the Zif design. Litigation based on prior art may cost the firm in terms of a licensing fee settlement which would hurt profitability, but most likely allow the firm remain profitable. Additionally, frivolous litigation may be initiated by a
competitor as a means of predatory action. The cost of this litigation is unknown. Manufacturing Failure (5%) Proven technology will be used to manufacture this product. The major risk involved here is in the combination of these technologies feeding one directly into the other without buffer zones. This may pose initial startup difficulties as machine outputs may suffer. Poor Market Reaction (5%) Zif must market itself effectively and provide a sense of product quality, security and reliability. If the market is negatively effected by competitive "propaganda" or initial quality problems, Zif could quickly lose hold in the marketplace. This is a small risk because the large pent-up demand for safe syringes will encourage users to try new brands. Additionally, Zif will focus on initial and ongoing product quality as a way of doing business to ensured its products meet the strictest user requirements. FDA Rejection (5%) Due to the safe nature of this product, tremendous market demand, existing manufacturing technology, and soon to be established field results, this risk is small.
Overall, the combined risk assessment is 35%. This risk can have an impact on the initial profitability, however, these setbacks, if realized, are expected to be minimized and eventually eliminated within the first five years of operation.
