CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some discussions in this prospectus may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to future events or future financial performance. A number of important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us in this prospectus. 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.
In some cases, you can also identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "plans", "predicts", "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors", that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In addition, you are directed to factors discussed in the "Business" section and the "Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation section, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this prospectus in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing shares of our company's common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. The risks described below are not the only ones facing our Company. Additional risks not presently known to us may also impair our business operations. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.
Risks Associated with our Business
We have had negative cash flows from operations and if we are not able to obtain further financing our business operations may fail.
To date we have had negative cash flows from operations and we have been dependent on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cost requirements. As of September 30, 2007, we had working capital deficit of $9,827,060. We do not expect positive cash flow from operations in the near term. We may not be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms when we need it. We have pledged all of our assets to secure convertible notes that we issued in August 2004, February 2005, March 2005, February 2006, and December 2006.
7
We may conduct offerings in the future in which case your shareholdings will be diluted.
Since our inception, we have relied on equity sales of our common stock to fund our operations. We may conduct further equity offerings in the future to finance our current projects or to finance subsequent projects that we decide to undertake. If common stock is issued in return for additional funds, the price per share could be lower than that paid by our current stockholders. We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to fund our business operations. If we issue additional stock, your percentage interest in us will be diluted. The result of this could reduce the value of your stock.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We expect to incur operating losses and negative cash flow until our products gain market acceptance sufficient to generate a commercially viable and sustainable level of sales. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, as described in our September 30, 2007 unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and in our December 31, 2006 audited consolidated financial statements as well as in our independent auditors' report on the December 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
We depend on a limited number of customers and if we are unable to diversify our customer base and we lose one or more of these customers, then our revenues may decrease significantly.
We had sales of $5,868,115 for the nine month ended September 30, 2007. Two customers accounted for 51.47% of sales with one representing 24.57% of sales and another representing 26.90%. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our sales.
We depend on experienced management and if we are unable to retain or hire such management in the future, then our ability to produce innovative and competitive products could be adversely affected
We depend on the services of our senior management team. The loss of the services of any one of these persons, or an inability to recruit and retain additional qualified personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business. We have no plans at present to obtain key person life insurance for any of our officers and directors. We are also dependent on highly qualified technical and engineering personnel. If we are unable to retain or hire such management and key technical employees, our ability to generate revenues could be adversely affected, as would our continued business operations. We have not entered into employment or non-competition agreements with our executive officers.
We operate in a highly competitive industry and our failure to compete effectively may adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.
The wireless communications industry is characterized by rapidly evolving technology and intense competition. We may be at a disadvantage to other companies having more technical staff, established market share and greater financial and operational resources. Some of our competitors have achieved greater brand recognition and technologies than we currently enjoy. We may not be able to successfully compete.
8
We may not be able to protect our proprietary technology.
Other than a provisional patent application filed in the United States for our multi-carrier linear amplifier and patents related to our repeater technology filed in Israel we do not have any patents on our technology or products. We rely largely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark, patents and patent laws, and other applicable laws to protect our proprietary intellectual property.
Unanticipated warranty costs could affect the ongoing demand for our products and our ability to operate profitably.
Our products are relatively new to their respective markets and lack extensive field operating experience. While we have tested our products for failure in certain circumstances, there can be no assurance that our products will continue to operate satisfactorily after sustained field use. If a substantial number of products are returned and accepted for warranty replacement, the cost to us could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We have a significant amount of aged payables and if we are unable to pay such amounts or if a creditor decides to take legal action against us, we may have to scale down or cease the operation of our business.
As at September 30, 2007, we had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $8,868,334, of which approximately $3,925,136 represented payables to trade creditors. To date, these creditors have been co-operating with us to accept a delayed payment of these outstanding payables. If one or more of these creditors is no longer willing to accept delayed payments and demands immediate payment of any such amounts, then our cash position and our need for further financing may become immediate. If we are unable to raise the funds to pay off such aged payables, then our continued operations may be negatively affected, and we may have to scale down or even cease the operation of our business.
We operate internationally and are subject to currency fluctuation, which could cause us to incur losses even if our operations are profitable.
We currently operate directly and through regional sales representatives globaly. Our research and development operations are conducted in Israel and we expect to operate in additional markets, each with its own currency. Contracts can be denominated in one of several currencies. A change in currency rates could cause us losses as we perform under the contract or as we are paid. We do not engage in currency trading operations to minimize this risk, but we might if warranted in the future. Also, our revenues earned abroad may be subject to taxation by more than one jurisdiction, and this could have the effect of reducing our earnings.
U.S. investors may have trouble in attempting to enforce liabilities based upon U.S. federal securities laws against us and our subsidiaries and our non-U.S. resident directors.
All of our tangible assets are located outside the United States. In addition, most of our directors are non-US citizens. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for United States investors to serve process within the United States upon management or to enforce a judgment upon management for civil liabilities in United States courts.
Risks Associated with our Common Stock
Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
Other Risks
Substantially all of our assets and a majority of our directors and officers are outside the United States, with the result that it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our directors or officers.
Substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, a majority of our directors and officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons' assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal securities laws against them.

We may require the selling security holders to suspend the sales of the securities offered by this prospectus upon the occurrence of any event that makes any statement in this prospectus or the related registration statement untrue in any material respect or that requires the changing of statements in these documents in order to make statements in those documents not misleading.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock on any market upon which the common stock may be listed or quoted (currently the OTC Bulletin Board), in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such sales may be at fixed prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the market prices or at negotiated prices. The shares of common stock being offered for resale by this prospectus may be sold by the selling stockholders by one or more of the following methods, without limitation:
(a)
block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
(b)
purchases by broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;
(c)
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
(d)
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;
(e)
privately negotiated transactions;
(f)
market sales (both long and short to the extent permitted under the federal securities laws);
(g)
at the market to or through market makers or into an existing market for the shares;
(h)
through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange listed or otherwise); and
(i)
a combination of any of the aforementioned methods of sale.
In the event of the transfer by any of the selling stockholders of its secured convertible notes, share purchase warrants or shares of common stock to any pledgee, donee or other transferee, we will amend this prospectus and the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part by the filing of a post-effective amendment in order to have the pledgee, donee or other transferee in place of the selling stockholder who has transferred his, her or its shares.
In effecting sales, brokers and dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from a selling stockholder or, if any of the broker-dealers act as an agent for the purchaser of such shares, from a purchaser in amounts to be negotiated which are not expected to exceed those customary in the types of transactions involved. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of the shares of common stock at a stipulated price per share. Such an agreement may also require the broker-dealer to purchase as principal any unsold shares of common stock at the price required to fulfil the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholder if such broker-dealer is unable to sell the shares on behalf of the selling stockholder.
14
Broker-dealers who acquire shares of common stock as principal may thereafter resell the shares of common stock from time to time in transactions which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. Such sales by a broker-dealer could be at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with such resales, the broker-dealer may pay to or receive from the purchasers of the shares commissions as described above.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling stockholders in the sale of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. In that event, any commissions received by the broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
From time to time, any of the selling stockholders may pledge shares of common stock pursuant to the margin provisions of customer agreements with brokers. Upon a default by a selling stockholder, their broker may offer and sell the pledged shares of common stock from time to time. Upon a sale of the shares of common stock, the selling stockholders intend to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act by delivering a prospectus to each purchaser in the transaction. We intend to file any amendments or other necessary documents in compliance with the Securities Act which may be required in the event any of the selling stockholders defaults under any customer agreement with brokers.
To the extent required under the Securities Act, a post effective amendment to this registration statement will be filed disclosing the name of any broker-dealers, the number of shares of common stock involved, the price at which the common stock is to be sold, the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealers, where applicable, that such broker-dealers did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and other facts material to the transaction.
We and the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under it, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and, insofar as a selling stockholder is a distribution participant and we, under certain circumstances, may be a distribution participant, under Regulation M. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock. See below under Regulation M for a discussion on this regulation.
All expenses of the registration statement including, but not limited to, legal, accounting, printing and mailing fees are and will be borne by us. Any commissions, discounts or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the shares of common stock will be borne by the selling stockholders, the purchasers participating in such transaction, or both.
15
Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as amended, may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus. In general, under Rule 144, any person(or persons whose shares are aggregated) including persons deemed to be affiliates, whose restricted securities have been fully paid for and held for at least one year from the later of the date of issuance by us or acquisition from an affiliate, may sell such securities in brokers transactions or directly to market makers, provided that the number of shares sold in any three-month period may not exceed the greater of one percent of the then-outstanding shares of our common stock or the average weekly trading volume of our shares of common stock in the over-the-counter market during the four calendar weeks preceding the sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to certain notice requirements and the availability of current public information about our company. After two years have elapsed from the later of the issuance of restricted securities by us or their acquisition from an affiliate, such securities may be sold without limitation by persons who are not affiliates under the rule.
Blue Sky Restrictions on Resale
If a selling security holder wants to sell shares of our common stock under this registration statement in the United States, the selling stockholders will need to comply with state securities laws, also known as Blue Sky laws with regard to secondary sales. All states offer a variety of exemptions from registration of secondary sales. Many states, for example, have an exemption for secondary trading of securities registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or for securities of issuers that publish continuous disclosure of financial and non-financial information in a recognized securities manual, such as Standard & Poors. The broker for a selling stockholder will be able to advise the stockholder as to which states have an exemption for secondary sales of our common stock.
Any person who purchases shares of our common stock from a selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus, and who subsequently wants to resell such shares will also have to comply with Blue Sky laws regarding secondary sales.
Regulation M
During such time as we may be engaged in a distribution of any of the shares we are registering by this registration statement, we are required to comply with Regulation M. In general, Regulation M precludes any selling security holder, any affiliated purchasers and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in a distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase, any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M defines a distribution as an offering of securities that is distinguished from ordinary trading activities by the magnitude of the offering and the presence of special selling efforts and selling methods. Regulation M also defines a distribution participant as an underwriter, prospective underwriter, broker, dealer, or other person who has agreed to participate or who is participating in a distribution. Regulation M under the Exchange Act prohibits, with certain exceptions, participants in a distribution from bidding for or purchasing, for an account in which the participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution. Regulation M also governs bids and purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with a distribution of the security.
16
We have informed the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulation provisions of Regulation M may apply to the sales of their shares offered by this prospectus, and we have also advised the selling shareholders of the requirements for delivery of this prospectus in connection with any sales of the common stock offered by this prospectus.
Penny Stock Rules
The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in our company will be subject to the penny stock rules.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
•
contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
•
contains a description of the broker's or dealers duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements;
•
contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
•
contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
•
defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and
•
contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format) as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer:
•
with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
•
the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
•
the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
•
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
17
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.
Canadian Resale Restrictions
As our principal executive offices are located in British Columbia, Canada, distributions of our securities are subject to the securities laws of British Columbia and Canada. In addition, we are a reporting with the Securities commissions of the Provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. Under Canadian provincial laws, most securities distributed by a company that is reporting under the securities laws of a province, are subject to a hold period of four months from the date of issuance. In the case of securities that are exerciseable or convertible into common stock, the underlying common stock has the same hold period as the original security. Accordingly, unless the hold period does not apply, selling shareholders that have not held their securities for at least four months may not lawfully resell those securities into Canada until expiry of the four month hold period. Where the four month hold period is applicable and not expired, we may place a legend denoting the hold period on the certificate representing common stock acquired by a selling shareholder on exercise or conversion of warrants or convertible debt.
18
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Other than as set forth below, we know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
We have been sued in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, by Getec North America and Getec Industrial Limited (Getec). The lawsuit was commenced on March 30, 2006. Getec alleges that services provided to Unity Wireless Systems Inc. have not been paid and claim in total $106,420. We dispute the allegations and are defending the claim and filed a counterclaim. No trial date has been set. The matter is at a very preliminary stage. We do not expect the proceeding to have any material adverse effect on us.
We have been sued in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, by TRS-Rentelco (TRS). The lawsuit was commenced on October 27, 2006. TRS alleges that equipment rentals provided to Unity Wireless Systems Inc. have not been paid and claim in total approximately $450,000. We dispute the allegations and are defending the claim and are planning to file a counterclaim. No trial date has been set. The matter is at a very preliminary stage. We do not expect the proceeding to have any material adverse effect on us.
We have been sued in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, by Hency Transportation (Canada) Limited (Hency). The lawsuit was commenced on June 15, 2007. Hency alleges that services provided to Unity Wireless Systems Inc. have not been paid and claim in total approximately $70,000. We dispute the allegations and are defending the claim and filed a counterclaim. No trial date has been set. The matter is at a very preliminary stage. We do not expect the proceeding to have any material adverse effect on us.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
We are authorized to issue 520,000,000 shares of common stock $0.001 par value and up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock on such terms as the Board may determine. As at October 31, 2007, we had 180,707,827 shares of common stock outstanding and 90,000 Series B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares. Each share of the Series B preferred stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock and will be automatically converted into 1,000 shares of common stock on the earlier of the election of the holder or 30 days following the Corporations second annual general meeting.
Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There are no cumulative voting rights. All outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at such times and in such amounts as our Board of Directors may from time to time determine. Holders of common stock will share equally on a per share basis in any dividend declared by the Board of Directors. We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on such stock in the foreseeable future. We have not declared any dividends since incorporation and do not anticipate that we will do so in the foreseeable future. We are restricted from declaring dividends on our common shares pursuant to a Convertible Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements dated August 31, 2004, February 11, 2005, March 24, 2005, February 28, 2006, and December 13, 2006 for so long as any of these issued convertible notes are outstanding.
In the event of a merger or consolidation, all holders of common stock will be entitled to receive the same per share consideration.
The preferred shares could, in certain instances, render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest and thus potentially have an "anti-takeover" effect, especially if preferred shares were issued in response to a potential takeover. In addition, issuances of authorized preferred shares can be implemented, and have been implemented by some companies in recent years, with voting or conversion privileges intended to make acquisition of the corporation more difficult or more costly. Such an issuance could deter the types of transactions which may be proposed or could discourage or limit the stockholders' participation in certain types of transactions that might be proposed (such as a tender offer), whether or not such transactions were favored by the majority of the stockholders, and could enhance the ability of officers and directors to retain their positions.
27
INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
No expert or counsel named in this prospectus as having prepared or certified any part of this prospectus or having given an opinion upon the validity of the securities being registered or upon other legal matters in connection with the registration or offering of the common stock was employed on a contingency basis or had, or is to receive, in connection with the offering, a substantial interest, directly or indirectly, in the registrant or any of its parents or subsidiaries. Nor was any such person connected with the registrant or any of its parents, subsidiaries as a promoter, managing or principal underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer or employee.
This prospectus and registration statement contains consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2007 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 that have not been audited. The consolidated financial statements of Unity Wireless Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and for the years then ended have been included herein and in the registration statement in reliance upon the report of KPMG LLP, independent registered public accounting firm appearing elsewhere herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. The audit report covering the December 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
Morton and Company provided the opinion attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 stating that the securities being sold pursuant to the Registration Statement are duly authorized and will be, when issued in the manner described in the Registration Statement, legally and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the shares of common stock being offered hereby was passed upon for us by Morton & Company.
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our bylaws provide that directors and officers shall be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with services for us or on our behalf.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "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 public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
28

In November 2000 we entered the business of designing, developing and manufacturing RF (Radio Frequency) power amplifiers for the wireless network infrastructure industry. During 2001, we focused on developing new products and expanding our marketing, sales and global distribution network. Since 2003, we have focused on securing development projects and supply agreements with customers and prospective customers, and on developing new RF power amplifiers and related products.
On June 8, 2006, the Corporation through its wholly owned subsidiary, Unity Wireless Microwave Systems Ltd. (UW Microwave) acquired Avantry Ltd. (Avantry) pursuant to the terms of a merger agreement dated February 15, 2006 (Merger Agreement). Avantry is in the business of offering a comprehensive transmission product line of integrated microwave radio and optical transport systems for carrying flexible combinations of voice and data traffic. The Corporation acquired Avantry in order to obtain a complementary set of products to the Corporation. Under the term of the Merger Agreement, Unity Wireless Corporation acquired the net assets of Avantry in exchange for $1,750,000 of convertible promissory notes that are convertible into common stock at $0.25 per shares and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.40. The convertible promissory notes and related warrants have been valued at their fair value of $1,755,147.
On July 3, 2006, the Corporation through its wholly owned subsidiary, Unity Wireless Acquisition Corporation (UW Acquisition) acquired Celerica Inc. (Celerica). Celerica specializes in extending RF coverage and optimizing network capacity distribution of mobile communications in urban, suburban and rural areas, using optical wireless, fiber optics and microwave technology. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Corporation acquired the net assets of Celerica in exchange for 20,000 shares of Series A convertible non-redeemable preferred shares. The preferred shares have been valued at a fair value of $2,000,000 based on multiplying the Corporations common shares market price as of the closing date of the acquisition by the number of common stock issuable upon conversion.
29
On August 17, 2006, the Corporation acquired Celletra Ltd. (Celletra). Celletra specializes in technology that provides wireless operators with solutions to achieve optimal coverage and to improve coverage and capacity of existing cells. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Corporation acquired the net assets of Celletra in exchange for 70,000 shares of Series B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares and contingent consideration of 20,000 shares of Series B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares and warrants to purchase 40,000,000 shares of common stock at a prices between $0.20 and $0.30 expiring August 17, 2009 (or 40,000 shares of Series B Convertible Shares should there not be sufficient authorized shares of common stock). The contingent consideration is payable upon Celletra achieving revenues from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006 and binding purchase orders as of June 30, 2006 of not less than $6,400,000. On the acquisition date, the contingent consideration criteria had been met and the contingent consideration was issued.
Our Current Business
Principal Products
Unity Wireless products are divided into two main lines. The first is Coverage Enhancement Solutions (CES), such as repeaters, and tower mounted amplifiers, that are utilized by Wireless Network Operators to extend coverage and manipulate capacity so that their overall network performance is enhanced in the most cost effective manner. The second area of Unity's business is supplying high power amplifiers (HPA) and related subsystems to the large Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) of base transceiver stations (BTS or base stations). Base stations are the main radio system in any wireless network and Unity has developed over 40 HPA models that are used in cellular, personal communication services, (PCS), paging, wireless local loop (WLL) and third generation (3G) BTSs. Almost all of our products are custom made or are adapted for each customer's particular requirements.

Substantially all of our long-lived assets and principal business operations are located in British Columbia, Canada and Yokneam, Israel. Revenues from operations were $5,868,115 in the nine-month ended September 30, 2007 and $4,657,884 in the nine-month ended September 30, 2006. A summary of sales by geographic region for the three and nine-month ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows ($000):

Product Research and Development
During the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, we spent $3,537,491 and $1,615,568, respectively, on research and development activities.
In the most recent two years, we have augmented our research and development capabilities by adding experienced hardware and software engineers to our product development team. We devote a large portion of our research and development resources towards next generation products and towards developing products for customers that we consider to have long-term revenue and growth potential.
31
Sales and Marketing of Our Products
Our principal customers include both direct sales to operators of wireless networks and sales to the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) which sell their products to operators of wireless networks.
We sell our products through independent sales agents who are paid on a commission basis and through sales individuals who are employed on a full time basis. We seek to identify and engage sales representatives who will sell our products in additional markets.
Our sales to date have been by way of purchase orders that typically cover periods ranging from several months to one year. We have no sales agreements that extend beyond one year.
Manufacturing and Suppliers
We subcontract a portion of our manufacturing processes to qualified companies with a history of quality assurance. This reduces the need for capital expenditures for manufacturing facilities and staff, and allows us to utilize specialists in each stage of manufacturing. Alternate contract manufacturers are available should any of our existing contract manufacturers cease to provide services to us.
The process to assemble, test and tune many of our current products is labor intensive. We assemble, configure, tune and test our products and radio frequency circuitry in our facilities located in Burnaby, British Columbia, and Yokneam, Israel, for low volume production orders. We rely on contract manufacturers in Canada and our facility in China for our high volume production orders.
The principal raw materials used in the production of our products are mostly standard electronic, plastic and hardware components. We have from time to time experienced difficulties in obtaining raw materials and we reduce supply risk by using alternate suppliers.
Our arrangements with suppliers are on a short-term basis. To date we have not entered into any long-term arrangements.
Competition and Competitive Advantage
Within our market, there are two dominant companies and a number of smaller ones. The dominant companies -- Powerwave and Andrew -- collectively represent a significant portion of sales. These companies are vertically integrated suppliers of RF power amplifiers, components, antenna systems, primarily to customers in the telecom and defense industries, and supply the largest OEM vendors in our industry.
To compete, we focus on specific niches within the wireless network infrastructure, seek to enter into partnerships with leading edge technology vendors, and maintain a low overhead / outsourced manufacturing model. We believe our size, infrastructure technology and location allow us to provide our customers with economically attractive and timely responses to their individual requests.
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of trademarks and trade secrets to protect our intellectual property. We execute confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our management and engineering employees and limit access to our proprietary information.
32
Trade-Marks
We use the trade-mark "Unity Wireless," which is registered in Canada. We intend to register the "Unity Wireless" trade-mark in the U.S. and other countries.
Service and Product Warranty
We offer a standard warranty of one year on parts and labor from date of shipment and on occasion offer a warranty period of up to three years. We repair units under warranty at our cost and return the units freight prepaid back to the customer. We generally warranty a repaired unit for the remainder of the original warranty period or for one year from the repair date, whichever is longer.
Our warranties specifically exclude all liabilities for "special, incidental, direct, indirect, or consequential damages or expenses whatsoever" arising from the functioning or use of, or inability to use, the warranted products. No warranties are made in the event that product has been improperly installed, subjected to abuse or negligence, or tampered with. Consumer protection and other laws may limit our ability to limit our liability or to exclude certain types of damages.
Government Regulation
Our products are sold as components that form part of larger systems. The manufacturer or integrator of the systems must test them for compliance with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standards to avoid radio frequency emissions that could interfere with other radio frequency transmissions or similar regulatory standards in other countries. We do not test our amplifier products for compliance at the component level. Nonetheless, if a system in which our amplifiers are included fails to satisfy applicable standards, whether due to emissions from our amplifiers or other causes, sales of our amplifiers would be adversely affected.
Significant Customers
We had sales of $5,868,115 for the nine-month ended September 30, 2007. Two customers accounted for 51.47% of sales with one representing 26.90% of sales and another representing 24.57%. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our sales.
Employees
We currently employ 56 people, of which all are employed on a full-time basis.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion of the financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of operations of Unity Wireless Corporation should be read in conjunction with our most recent financial statements and notes appearing: (1) in the Form 10-QSB for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007; and (2) the Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006, which were filed on November 19, 2007 and April 17, 2007, respectively.
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under which an entity is assumed to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Operations to date have been primarily financed by borrowing and equity transactions. Our future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of additional long-term debt or permanent equity financing, the continued support of creditors and stockholders, and, ultimately, the achievement of profitable operations. There can be no assurances that we will be successful. If we are not, we will be required to reduce operations or liquidate assets. We will continue to evaluate our projected expenditures relative to our available cash and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy our working capital and other cash requirements. The auditors' report on the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 contained in the 10-KSB filed on April 17, 2007, includes an explanatory paragraph that states that as we have suffered recurring losses from operations, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audited consolidated financial statements or the interim quarterly unaudited consolidated financial statements included with this registration statement do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
Three-month period ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:
Sales and Cost of Goods Sold
Sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $1,074,690, a decrease of 29% or $443,167, from $1,517,857 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. In both our historical product lines and new product lines obtained through acquisitions, we have seen a greater diversification in our customer base and geographical areas where the company is now selling its expanded product offerings. However, in this specific quarter, the decrease was primarily due to fluctuations in the delivery of our production volume projects to our customers.
Cost of goods sold during the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $886,358 resulting in a gross margin of $188,332 or 18% of sales, compared to $1,098,499 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006 resulting in a gross margin of $419,358 or 28% of sales.
The decrease in gross margin is largely attributed to lower revenue levels resulting in less bill of material margin generated and available to cover fixed production related costs.
To the extent that costs are incurred in manufacturing products and have been determined by management to be due to engineering issues these costs have been charged to research and development expenses.
35
Operating Expenses
Research and Development
Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $1,455,765, an increase of $731,830 or 101%, from $723,935 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily the result of:
-
Additional research and development expenses from the three acquired companies (Avantry, Celerica, & Celletra) which had only become part of the group as of the comparative prior period:
-
Product material costs, of approximately $625,000, required to manufacture products where the engineering process of the products was being done parallel to the production in order to fulfill certain customers expedited orders for specific equipments in both India and Russia. It is anticipated that there will be an ongoing order stream from these new, large, key accounts, including Motorola, Nokia and Ericsson.
-
Recording $235,293 as a write-down of raw materials to be used in research and development due to obsolete inventory during the three-month period ended September 30, 2007.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $277,600, a decrease of $266,431, or 49%, from $544,031 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of the completion of restructuring in 2006 which reduced the number of employees in the sales and marketing department.
Royalty payments for government grants
Royalty payments for government grants for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $30,389, a decrease of $785, from $31,174 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of the decrease in the sales volume.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $836,426, an increase of $416,982, from $419,444 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily the result of the amortization of the intangible assets recorded relating to the acquired companies in 2006. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2007, the Corporation recorded $738,910 as the amortization of the intangibles.
Foreign exchange Loss
Foreign exchange loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $89,476, an increase of $83,956, from $5,520 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006 due to fluctuations in the currency exchange rate between the U.S. and Canada.
36
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 increased by $192,952 to $377,124 from $184,172 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in interest expense from the issuance of convertible debentures in February and December of 2006.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 increased by 4% to $818,552, an increase of $68,844, from $749,708 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. The change was primarily the result of a reduced headcount due to the restructuring completed in December 2006 offset by an increase in the investors relations activities during the three-month period ended September 30, 2007.
Share compensation expense
Celletras share compensation expenses were $56,250 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007. At the request of the Celletra shareholders 5% of the total consideration, or 4,500 Preferred Shares, were issued to a trust controlled by the selling shareholders of Celletra which is instructed to issue the shares to current and former employees of Celletra, if at any time within one year after the closing date, the price per share of the Companys common stock is equal to or exceeds $0.20 for a period of seven consecutive days. If this target share price is met, the shares are to be distributed. If this milestone is not achieved the shares will be returned back to the selling shareholders of Celletra. These employees were not shareholders of Celletra. As a result of the shares issued to the Celletra selling shareholders, those selling shareholders became significant (ie: holding greater than 10%) shareholders of the Company. In accordance with FAS 123(R), the Company has calculated the fair value of compensation relating to these shares that may be issued to current and former employees, to be $450,000 and has amortized the amount on a straight line basis over one year. The amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $56,250. The full amount has been amortized as of September 30, 2007.
Other Expenses
Accretion of Interest and Loss on Debt Settlement
Accretion of interest and loss on debt settlement for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $48,031, a decrease of $14,798, compared to $62,829 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of the debt modifications of the convertible notes issued in August 2004, February 2005 and February 2006 which resulted in losses on debt settlements recorded in 2006. The Corporation recorded an amortization of the premium on the convertible notes for $27,696 against the accretion of interest in the three-month period ended September 30, 2007.
37
Loss for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2007
Loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 increased by 64%, or $1,497,037, to $3,846,132, from $2,349,095 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in amortization of intangible assets and the additional research and development expenses relating to the acquired companies.
Nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:
Sales and Cost of Goods Sold
Sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $5,868,115, an increase of 26% or $1,210,231, from $4,657,884 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. In both our historical product lines and new product lines obtained through acquisitions we have seen a greater diversification in our customer base and geographical areas where the company is now selling its expanded product offerings.
Cost of goods sold during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $4,506,244 resulting in a gross margin of $1,361,871 or 23% of sales, compared to $3,577,474 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 resulting in a gross margin of $1,080,410 or 23% of sales.
The Corporation has been experiencing improved gross margins on mature product lines largely attributed to:
-
Increase in sales, resulting in increased component requirements and the company has been able to negotiate better pricing from its outsourced manufacturer due to the higher purchased volumes;
-
Efficiencies and cost savings have been obtained by centralizing our manufacturing and procurement largely with one outsourced manufacturer;
-
Efficiencies and cost savings have been obtained by centralizing our final testing of products in our China facility where the Company has also been able to benefit from lower payroll costs.
However, on recently introduced product lines the manufacturing efficiencies have not been achieved yet due to set up costs amortized over smaller production runs and lower purchasing power due to purchasing of fewer components. As a result, the Corporation has realized lower gross margins and a greater amount of costs related to these products has been charged to research and development.
As a result, on average, between the effects of the mature and recently introduced product lines the gross margins have remained constant.
To the extent that costs are incurred in manufacturing products and have been determined by management to be due to engineering issues these costs have been charged to research and development expenses.

Loss for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 increased by 81%, or $4,330,830, to $9,678,869, from $5,348,039 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in amortization of intangible assets and the additional research and development expenses relating to the acquired companies.
Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2005
Sales and Cost of Goods Sold
Sales for the year ended of 2006 were $7,343,552, of which $5,392,552 and $1,951,000 were recorded from Canada and Israels operation, respectively, an overall increase of 49.70% or $2,437,973, from $4,905,579 for the year ended of 2005. In both our historical product lines and new product lines obtained through acquisitions we have seen a greater diversification in our customer base and geographical areas where the company sells.
Cost of goods sold during the year ended period of 2006 was $5,596,185 resulting in a gross margin of 1,747,367 or 23.79% of net sales, compared to $3,792,999 for the year ended of 2005 resulting in a gross margin of $1,112,580 or 22.68% of net sales.
The increase in gross margin is largely attributed to:
-
Increase in sales has resulted in increased component requirements and the company and its outsourced manufacturer have been able to negotiate better pricing due to the higher purchase volumes;
-
Efficiencies and cost savings have been obtained by centralizing our manufacturing and procurement largely with one outsourced manufacturer;
-
Efficiencies and cost savings have been obtained by centralizing our final testing of products in our China facility where the company has also been able to benefit from lower payroll costs..

42
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the year ended of 2006 increased by $309,776 to $586,769 from $276,993 for the year ended of 2005. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in interest payable to note holders of the convertible debenture issued in February of 2006 and December of 2006.

Share compensation expense
Celletras share compensation expenses were $168,750 for the year ended of 2006. At the request of the Celletra shareholders 5% of the total consideration, or 4,500 Preferred Shares, were issued to a trust controlled by the selling shareholders of Celletra which is instructed to issue the shares to current and former employees of Celletra, if at any time within one year after the Closing Date, the price per share of Unity common stock is equal to or exceeds US$0.20 for a period of seven consecutive days. If this the target share price is met, the shares are to be distributed. If this milestone is not achieved the shares will be returned back to the selling shareholders of Celletra. These employees were not shareholders of Celletra. As a result of the shares issued to the Celletra selling shareholders, those selling shareholders became significant (ie: holding greater than 10%) shareholders of Unity. In accordance with FAS 123(R), the Company has calculated the fair value of compensation relating to these shares that may be issued to current and former employees, to be $450,000 and have amortized the amount on a straight line basis over one year.
43
Restructuring Costs
In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company recorded $781,831, in which $417,831 and $364,000 were recorded for Canada and Israels operation, respectively, as restructuring expenses related to streamlining the operations of the company globally.
The operational restructuring resulted in the termination of 40 employees, a re-alignment of research and development activities in the Corporation and a reduction of facilities occupied, all of which resulted in restructuring and other charges as follows:

Other Expenses
Accretion of Interest and Loss on Debt Settlement
Accretion of interest and loss on debt settlement for the year ended of 2006 was $5,450,051, an increase of $4,561,584, compared to $888,467 for the year ended of 2005. This increase was primarily the result of:the interest accretion in relation to convertible debentures issued since August 2004 and loss on debt settlement related to modifications to the terms of the debentures which were issued in August 2004, February 2005 and February 2006 and to warrants issued to the former shareholders of Celletra Ltd. as part of the acquisition consideration which were modified as part of the Corporations convertible debenture financing in December 2006.
Fair Value Adjustment on Warrants
Fair value adjustment on warrants of $68,408 relates to the 40,000,000 warrants issued to the former shareholders of Celletra Ltd. as part of the acquisition consideration where the company fair valued them from the date of issuance until November 24, 2006 when the Corporations stockholders approved an increase in authorized share capital, sufficient to enable the exercise of the warrants.
44
Loss for the Year Ended 2006
Loss for the year ended of 2006 increased by 172.18%, or $9,384,493, to $14,834,901, from $5,450,408 for the year ended of 2005. The increase was primarily a result of the operating expenses related to the acquisition in 2006, restructuring costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2006, and accretion of interest and loss on debt settlement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have been dependent on investment capital and debt financing as our primary sources of liquidity. We had an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2007 of $51,786,256. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, we incurred a net loss of $9,678,869.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, our cash position was decreased to $353,977. This decrease was primarily due to the payment of trade payables and the short-term loan.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the Corporation issued common shares as follows:
i.
Issue of 7,630,704 common shares on settlement of $778,164 of accounts payable.
ii.
Issue of 27,839,558 and 5,545,454 units of common shares at a price of $0.09 and $0.11, respectively, per unit for gross proceeds of $3,115,560. Each unit entitles the holder to one common share and a warrant exerciseable into one and one half common shares.
iii.
Issue of 7,360,145 common shares on conversion of $662,413 convertible notes.
iv.
Issue of 20,000,000 common shares on conversion of $2,000,000 Series A preferred shares.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, we purchased $10,000 in equipment and disposed of $45,482 of equipment.
Other than leases for premises, leased vehicles and equipment commitments for an aggregate of $585,221 through 2009, we have no material commitments outstanding at September 30, 2007.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2007 convertible notes amounting to $1,978,594 and promissory notes amounting to $274,000 came due. The notes have not been repaid and the Company is currently negotiating new terms with the note holders. The Company is also negotiating new terms with the note holders of promissory notes, amounting to $460,000, which came due in December 2006. None of the note or debenture holders have demanded repayment at this time.
Subsequent to September 30, 2007, the Corporation obtained an additional revolving line of credit of a maximum of $2,000,000, which bears interest at LIBOR + 3.0% and is secured by a general floating lien on all of Celletras assets.
Our capital requirements may increase in light of our current strategy to expand our customer base and to develop new products and technologies. Our operations to date have been primarily financed by sales of our equity securities and debt financing, and, the companys assets are pledged to secure convertible notes that we issued in August 2004, February 2005, March 2005, February 2006 and December 2006. For any additional financing that may be required in the near term, we may be required to obtain the consent of certain of our investors prior to the issuance of our common stock or common stock equivalents and prior to entering into an agreement to assume certain liabilities.
45
While convertible notes and warrant purchase Agreements dated August 31, 2004, February 11, 2005, March 24, 2005, February 28, 2006 and December 13, 2006 are outstanding, we cannot declare dividends on our commons shares. As of September 30, 2007, we had working capital deficit of $9,827,060 our operations presently have net cash outflow of $4,384,837 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon one or more factors, that may include: our ability obtaining further financing; an increased rate of market acceptance of our current products and any new product offerings that we may introduce; the continuing successful development of our products and related technologies; and achieving a profitable level of operations Moving forward, although the issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders, obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitment.
Our Auditors report on our 2006 consolidated financial statements includes an additional explanatory paragraph that states that our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of operations. The continuation as a going concern for the foreseeable future is dependent upon the identification and successful completion of additional debt or equity financing or the generation of positive cash flows from operating activities. Our ability to raise financing is, in part, based on market conditions that are outside of our control. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, we would likely not be able to realize on our assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Based on the carrying value of assets at December 31, 2006, the inability to continue as a going concern would require liquidation of assets not in the normal course that would primarily impact inventory, equipment, intangible assets, and goodwill's recoverable amounts.
46
Inventory is carried at the lower of cost, determined on an average cost method, and market. Market is considered to be replacement cost for raw materials and net realizable value for work in progress and finished goods. The cost of work in progress and finished goods includes the cost of raw material, direct labour, and an appropriate allocation of related overhead. We provide an allowance that we consider to be reasonable for its non-moving or slow moving inventory items and for items with expected future realizable value lower than cost. Changes in customer demands and requirements in the short term could reduce product demand and prices having a material impact on future realizable value of inventory.
Equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. We review these assets for impairments when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. As actual future net cash flows are uncertain, the estimation process requires us to make reasonable assumptions about future economic trends and events. These trends and events are substantially outside of our control. To the extent that the expected future cash flows generated by the asset are reduced, we may be required to record an impairment charge against the carrying value of the equipment.
Goodwill is the residual amount that results when the purchase price of an acquired business exceeds the sum of the amounts allocated to the identifiable assets acquired, less liabilities assumed, based on their fair values. Goodwill is allocated as of the date of the business combination to our reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. The impairment test is carried out in two steps. In the first step, the carrying amount of the reporting unit is compared with its fair value. When the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired and the second step of impairment test is unnecessary. The second step is carried out when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, in which case the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is compared with its carrying amount to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is determined in the same manner as the value of goodwill is determined in a business combination described in the preceding paragraph, using the fair value of the reporting unit as if it was the purchase price. When the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess and is presented as a separate line item in the earnings statement before extraordinary items and discontinued operations. We consider ourselves to operate as a single reporting unit. Fair value of the reporting unit is measured by reference to such factors as estimated future cash flows and the market value of our common shares. Changes in these factors could impact future impairment conclusions.
On an ongoing basis, we record our best estimate of our warranty obligations related to products sold. A liability for estimated warranty expense is established by a charge against costs of goods sold at the time revenue is recognized as the products are sold. These estimates are made after the consideration of contractual warranty obligations and historical experience. The subsequent actual costs incurred for warranty claims serve to reduce the product warranty liability that we have estimated. Unforeseen events, including increased technological difficulties with products, could occur that have not been anticipated in estimating the warranty provision. Additional costs or estimates will be recognized as determinable.
47
We recognize revenue when criteria specified in generally accepted accounting principles have been met. Specifically, revenue from products is recognized once a sale arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the revenue is determinable and collectability is reasonably assured, which is upon the later of shipment or when title passes to the customer depending on the contractual terms. We do not enter into sales arrangements having post contract customer support or rights of return. We record deferred revenue when cash is received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria (discussed above) being net. Although we have no current intention of doing so, changes in our business model could impact the timing of recognition in our consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of each option granted in the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: no dividend yield; volatility of 143% (2005 - 154%) based on weekly stock price; risk-free interest rate of 3.25% (2005 - 3.25%) and expected lives between one to five years. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $0.12 and $0.21 respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in United States dollars)
(Prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles)
Three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 (unaudited)
1.
Basis of presentation:
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by the United States generally accepted accounting principles for a complete set of annual consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2007 or for any other period.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Unity Wireless Corporations (the Corporation) annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006. Except as indicated in note 2(c), the accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interims consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements filed with the Corporations annual report.
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Operations to date have been significantly financed by short-term and long-term debt and equity transactions. At September 30, 2007, the Corporation requires additional financing to continue to operate at current levels through the next year. Accordingly, the Corporations future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of additional long-term or permanent debt and equity financing, the continued support of creditors and stockholders, and, ultimately, the achievement of profitable operations. There can be no assurances that the Corporation will be successful. If it is not, the Corporation will be required to reduce operations or liquidate assets. The Corporation will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy its working capital and other cash requirements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Corporation be unable to continue as a going concern.

2.
Significant accounting policies:
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America using the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in the Corporations financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006.
(a) Use of estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, particularly the recoverability of inventory, equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, and liabilities (particularly product warranty) and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(b) Comparative figures:
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current year.
(c) Shipping and handling costs:
The Corporations costs associated with shipping and handling engineering product items to the Corporations customers are included in the research and development expenses.
(d)
Recent accounting pronouncement:
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48) entitled Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company evaluated all the tax positions in accordance with FIN 48 and determined that there is no impact to our financial statements. The Corporations policy is to recognize interest and penalties expense as a component of interest expense in the statement of operations. As of the date of adoption of FIN 48, the Corporation did not have any penalties or tax-related interest, and there was no tax-related interest or penalties recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

Three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 (unaudited)
(d)
Recent accounting pronouncement (continued):
As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Corporation performed a review of its uncertain tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by FIN 48. Based on its review, the Corporation concluded that there are no significant unrecognized tax positions requiring recognition in the Corporations financial statements. The Corporation does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.
We conduct business globally and, as a result, file one or more income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and non-U.S. jurisdictions. In the normal course of business we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Canada, Israel and the United States. The open tax years for these jurisdictions include 2002 to 2006. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, the Corporation does not believe that the resolution of any such issue would have a material effect on the Corporations financial position. The resolution of any matter would be recognized as an adjustment to its provision for income taxes in the period of resolution.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FAS 115 ("SFAS No. 159"). SFAS No. 159 allows companies to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses shall be reported on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and will be applied prospectively. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on its consolidated balance sheet, result of operations and cash flows.

At the request of the Celletra shareholders 5% of the total preferred share consideration, or 4,500 Preferred Shares, were issued to a trust controlled by the selling shareholders of Celletra which is instructed to issue the shares to current and former employees of Celletra, if at any time within one year after the closing date, the price per share of Unity common stock is equal to or exceeds $0.20 for a period of seven consecutive days. If the target share price is met, the shares would be distributed. If this milestone is not achieved the shares will be returned back to the selling shareholders of Celletra. These employees were not shareholders of Celletra. As a result of the shares issued to the Celletra selling shareholders, those selling shareholders became significant (ie: holding greater than 10%) shareholders of Unity. In accordance with FAS 123(R), the Corporation has calculated the fair value of compensation relating to these shares that may be issued to current and former employees, to be $450,000 and has amortized the amount on a straight line basis over one year.

Contingent liabilities:
(a)
The Corporation is currently a party to three actions in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Vancouver Registry, brought by three different suppliers of the Corporation for approximately $620,000 in total.
The Corporation provides for costs related to contingencies when a loss is probable and the amount is reasonably determinable. It is the opinion of management, based in part on advice of legal counsel, that the ultimate resolution of these contingencies, to the extent not previously provided for, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Corporation.
(b)
Contingent liability on sale of products:
(i)
Under a license agreement, the Corporation is committed to make royalty payments based on the sales of products using certain technologies. Royalties are calculated based on 5% to 6% of sales of licensed products sold integrating the XNN Technology into various products to a minimum of $150,000 within twelve months subsequent to the first commercial sales of the integrated product. No such sales have occurred to September 30, 2007.
(ii)
Under an agreement with the Governments National Research Council Canada IRAP (IRAP) program, the Corporation received conditionally repayable government assistance amounting to $480,990 (CDN$483,491) to support the development of a multi-carrier linear power amplifier. Under the terms of the agreement, an amount up to a maximum of $721,485 (CDN$725,236) is to be repaid at a rate of 1.5% of quarterly gross revenue commencing on September 1, 2003, on a quarterly basis. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the Corporation recorded $31,082 (CDN$33,966) as royalties expense and $58,386 (CDN$66,545) in 2006.
(iii)
Under an agreement with the Canada Israel Industrial Research & Development Foundation, the Corporation is eligible to receive conditionally repayable government assistance amounting to $348,189 (CDN$350,000) to support the development of a multi-carrier linear power amplifier. As at December 31, 2005, the Corporation had received the entire assistance which had been recorded as government grant income as a reduction of expenses incurred. Under the terms of the agreement, commencing with the first commercial transaction, the assistance is repayable to the extent of 2.5% of yearly gross sales until 100% of the grant has been repaid. As of September 30, 2007, the Corporation has not yet commenced the commercialization of such product, and thus no repayment is required.

(iv)
The Corporate Israelis subsidiaries were granted by Canada Israel Industrial Research & Development Foundation (CIIRDF) and by the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Israeli Ministry of Industry and Trade (the OCS) approval for CIIRDF grants and OCS participation in the cost of several research programs. In return, the Corporate Israelis subsidiaries are committed to pay royalties at a rate of 3% to 5% of the sales of the approved products, up to 100% of the amount of the grants received, with the addition of interest at LIBOR. Under certain conditions, the Corporate Israelis subsidiaries commitment to pay royalties at the rates mentioned above and the total obligation for royalties shall increase. The Corporate Israelis subsidiaries are committed to pay increased royalties for income derived from the above mentioned sale of rights.
The grants are deducted from research and development expenses. The Corporate Israelis subsidiaries are entitled to the grants only upon incurring research and development expenditures. The Corporate Israelis subsidiaries are not obliged to repay any amount received from the OCS if the research effort is unsuccessful or if no products are sold. However, under certain limited circumstances, the OCS may withdraw its approval of a research program or amend the terms of its approval. Upon withdrawal of approval, the Corporate Israelis subsidiaries may be required to refund the grants, in whole or in part, with or without interest, as the OCS determines.
The maximum amount that could be repaid under this program for royalties, based on royalty-bearing government participation, totaled approximately $17,300,000 as of September 30, 2007. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the Corporation recorded $284,000 (2006 19,001) as royalty expense in its statement of operations.
Such amount excludes potential increase resulting from the above mentioned sale of
rights

These payments will continue until the grants are fully repaid.
Under certain limited circumstances, the Fund may withdraw its approval of the marketing plan. Upon withdrawal of approval, Avantry may be required to refund the grants, in whole or in part, with or without interest, as the Fund determines.
The aggregate potential liability in respect of the said grants on September 30, 2007 amounts to $72,000.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Unity Wireless Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unity Wireless Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporations management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Unity Wireless Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Corporation will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2 to the financial statements, the Corporation has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Nature of business:
Unity Wireless Corporation (the Corporation) was incorporated in Delaware on October 1, 1998 under the name Sonic Systems Corporation (Sonic Delaware). Sonic Delaware changed its name to Unity Wireless Corporation on July 17, 2000. Unity Wireless develops and markets base station equipment and coverage enhancement solutions for wireless networks and cellular operators.
2.
Future operations:
During the year, the Corporation incurred a loss, inclusive of stock-based compensation, of $14,834,901 (2005 - $5,450,408) and used cash in operations of $4,091,092 (2005 - $2,227,633).
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Operations to date have been primarily financed by both current and long-term debt and equity transactions. At December 31, 2006, the Corporation will require additional financing to continue to operate at current levels throughout 2007. Accordingly, the Corporations future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of additional long-term or permanent equity financing, the continued support of creditors and shareholders, and, ultimately, the achievement of profitable operations. There can be no assurances that the Corporation will be successful. If it is not, the Corporation will be required to reduce operations or liquidate assets. The Corporation will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy its working capital and other cash requirements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Corporation be unable to continue as a going concern.

Principles of consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Unity Wireless Systems Corp., Celerica Inc., Celletra Ltd., and Unity Wireless Microwave Systems Ltd. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
(b)
Use of estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, particularly the recoverability of inventory, equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, and liabilities (particularly product warranty) and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(c)
Financial instruments:
(i)
Fair values:
At December 31, 2006, the Corporation has the following financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, long-term deposits, bank loan, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans payable. The carrying values of these financial instruments are considered to approximate fair value based on their short-term nature. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Corporation, the carrying values of the obligations under capital lease approximate their fair values. The fair value of convertible debentures was determined to be $6,798,760.
The Corporation accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities. This statement requires the Corporation to recognize derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value. The gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments will either be recognized in current earnings or in other comprehensive income, depending on the use of the derivative and whether the hedging instrument is effective or ineffective when hedging changes in fair value. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in earnings in the period of change of value. The Corporation did not hold any derivative instruments and was not involved in any hedging activities at December 31, 2006 or 2005.

Concentrations of credit risk:
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Corporation to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable (note 16(d)). The Corporation maintains a reserve for potential credit losses based on a risk assessment of its customers.
(d)
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash equivalents include short-term deposits, which are all highly liquid securities with a term to maturity of three months or less when acquired. Short-term deposits are valued at market.
Restricted cash deposits are held with the bank to secure performance guarantees with certain customers of the Corporation.
(e)
Inventory:
Inventory is carried at the lower of cost, determined on an average cost method, and market. Market is considered to be replacement cost for raw materials and net realizable value for finished goods. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw material, direct labor, and an appropriate allocation of related overhead.
(f)
Capital assets:
Capital assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a declining balance basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Asset | Rate |
Computer equipment and software | 30% |
Computer equipment and software - leased | 30% |
Furniture and fixtures | 20% |
Production and R&D equipment | 20% |
Production and R&D equipment - leased | 20% |
Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and depreciated over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis.

Intangible assets:
Intangible assets are comprised of intellectual property acquired in business acquisitions and are being amortized over three years, its estimated useful life.
(h)
Goodwill:
Goodwill is the residual amount that results when the purchase price of an acquired business exceeds the sum of the amounts allocated to the identifiable assets acquired, less liabilities assumed, based on their fair values. Goodwill is allocated as of the date of the business combination to the Corporations reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination.
Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. The impairment test is carried out in two steps. In the first step, the carrying amount of the reporting unit is compared with its fair value. When the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired and the second step of impairment test is unnecessary. The second step is carried out when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, in which case the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill is compared with its carrying amount to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill is determined in the same manner as the value of goodwill is determined in a business combination described in the preceding paragraph, using the fair value of the reporting unit as if it was the purchase price. When the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess and is presented as a separate line item in the statement of operations before extraordinary items and discontinued operations. No impairment has been recognized to December 31, 2006.

Significant accounting policies (continued):
(i)
Impairment of long-lived assets:
Long-lived assets, such as equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
(j)
Income taxes:
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. To the extent that it is not considered to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided.
(k)
Advertising costs:
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Foreign currency translation:
As of April 1, 2005, the Corporation adopted the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. The Corporation has done this because the U.S. dollar is the currency in which it incurs all of its revenues, all of its financing and a significant portion of its costs. The Corporations subsidiaries also use the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Other assets and revenue and expense items are remeasured using the rate of exchange prevailing at their respective transaction dates. Exchange gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars are reflected in earnings (loss) for the period.
(m) Revenue recognition:
Revenue from products is recognized once a sale arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the revenue is fixed and determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured, which is upon the later of shipment or when title passes to the customer depending on the contractual terms. The Corporation does not enter into sales arrangements having post contract customer support or rights of return. The Corporation records deferred revenue when cash is received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria being met.

Product warranty:
A liability for estimated warranty expense is established by a charge against cost of goods sold at the time revenue is recognized as products are sold. The subsequent costs incurred for warranty claims serve to reduce the product warranty liability. The actual warranty costs the Corporation will ultimately pay could differ materially from this estimate (note 18(c)).
(o)
Research and development:
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
(p)
Stock option plan:
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Corporation accounted for employee stock-based awards under the fair value method of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation as amended by FASB Statement No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure. Effective January 1, 2006, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R requires measurement of compensation cost for employee stock-based awards based upon fair value over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. Furthermore, under SFAS 123R, liability based awards are recorded at fair value through to their settlement date.
Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS 123R, the Corporation applied the modified-prospective transition method. Under this method, the fair value provision of SFAS 123R are applied to new employee share-based payment awards granted or awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after December 31, 2005. Measurement and attribution of compensation cost for unvested awards at December 31, 2005, granted prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, are recognized based upon the provisions of SFAS No. 123, after adjustment for estimated forfeitures. SFAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Under SFAS No. 123 the Corporation had recognized forfeitures as they occurred. The cumulative impact of estimating forfeitures instead of accounting for forfeitures as they occur was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

(q)
Loss per common share:
The basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for that period. Diluted loss per share is computed using the treasury stock method, giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period except to the extent where anti-dilutive.
(r)
Government assistance:
Government assistance consists of government grants. Government grants are received for specific research and development projects approved by the agency. The Corporation follows the cost reduction method of accounting for government assistance, whereby the benefit of the assistance is recognized as a reduction in the cost of the related asset or credited against the expenses incurred in the statement of operations, as determined by the terms and conditions of the agreement under which the assistance is provided to the Corporation and the nature of the costs incurred. Government assistance is recognized when receipt of the assistance is reasonably assured. Reasonable assurance is based on the Corporations past experience with claims and collections. Certain government assistance has a contingent liability for repayment. The liability to repay government assistance is recognized in the period in which conditions arise that will cause government assistance to be repayable.
(s)
Comprehensive loss:
Comprehensive loss measures all changes in stockholders' equity from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. For the periods presented, other comprehensive loss comprises only foreign currency translation.
(t)
Comparative figures:
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current year.
(u)
Related party transactions:
Related party transactions in the normal course of operations are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

(v) Amounts funded for employees rights upon retirement:
In Israel, the Corporation is required to pay severance benefits to dismissed employees under a number of circumstances. In order to satisfy the liability, the Corporation has purchased life insurance policies which are recorded at their cash redemption value or by placing deposits with insurance companies.
(w) Registration rights agreements:
In connection with the sale of certain debt and equity instruments, the Corporation has entered into a number of registration rights agreements. Generally, these agreements require the Corporation to file registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to register the resale of common shares that may be issued to selling stockholders on conversion of debt or preferred stock, to permit resale of common shares previously sold under an exemption from registration or to register the resale of common shares that may be issued on exercise of outstanding options or warrants.
These registration rights agreements sometimes require the Corporation to pay liquidating damages for any time delay in filing the required registration statements or a delay in the registration statements being declared effective or subsequently being suspended in excess of some agreed-upon period of time. These liquidating damages are generally expressed as a fixed percentage, per month, of the original investment amount the Corporation received on issuance of the debt or preferred stock, common shares, options or warrants.
The Corporation has adopted FASB Staff Position on No. EITF 00-19-2, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements (FSP EITF 00-19-2). FSP EITF 00-19-2 which provides that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which defines that loss contingencies should be recognized as liabilities if they are probable and reasonably estimable. Accordingly, the Corporation recognizes the liquidated damages when it becomes probable that they will be incurred. Any penalties are expensed over the period to which they relate.
The adoption of FSP EITF 00-19-2 did not have an impact on prior year financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements:
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 on the Corporations consolidated financial statements has not yet been determined.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108) which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying the materiality of a current year misstatement. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on the Corporations financial position and results of operations.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (FIN 48) as an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109). This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold has been met. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2007. Differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption should be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The impact of the adoption of this interpretation on the Corporations consolidated financial statements has not yet been determined.

Recent accounting pronouncements (continued):
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS No. 154). SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle, unless impracticable or a pronouncement includes specific transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. This statement carries forward the guidance in APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, for the reporting of the correction of an error and a change in accounting estimate. SFAS No. 154 is effective beginning January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a significant impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements.

At the request of the Celletra shareholders 5% of the total preferred share consideration, or 4,500 Preferred Shares, were issued to a trust controlled by the selling shareholders of Celletra which is instructed to issue the shares to current and former employees of Celletra, if at any time within one year after the closing date, the price per share of Unity common stock is equal to or exceeds US$0.20 for a period of seven consecutive days. If the target share price is met, the shares would be distributed. If this milestone is not achieved the shares will be returned back to the selling shareholders of Celletra. These employees were not shareholders of Celletra. As a result of the shares issued to the Celletra selling shareholders, those selling shareholders became significant (ie: holding greater than 10%) shareholders of Unity. In accordance with FAS 123(R), the Corporation has calculated the fair value of compensation relating to these shares that may be issued to current and former employees, to be $450,000 and have amortized the amount on a straight line basis over one year.

Convertible debentures (continued):
(a)
During August 2004, the Corporation received gross cash proceeds of $1,250,000 from the issuance of 8% redeemable convertible debentures of the Corporation plus 3,750,000 share purchase warrants on the completion of a private placement effected pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. The debentures are convertible at the option of the holder at any time or automatically convert into common stock, subject to volume limitations, if the closing price of the common stock during a designated period is not less than $0.30. Interest on these debentures is payable quarterly. At the option of the Corporation, and subject to certain conditions being met, the Corporation may make quarterly interest payments in cash or in common stock of the Corporation. If the Corporation elects to settle with shares, the number of shares issuable is calculated by reference to the market price at that time.
On original issuance, each warrant issued entitles the holder to purchase one of the Corporations common shares and is exercisable at a price of $0.20 on or before August 31, 2009, on which date the warrants will expire.
For accounting purposes, the Corporation calculated the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible debenture, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature, which totaled $705,266, and initially recorded these values as additional paid-in capital. The value attributed to the warrants was based on their relative fair value as compared to the fair value of the convertible debentures. The remaining balance of $544,734 was recorded as a long-term liability. The carrying value of the liability was initially being accreted to the redemption value of the debentures over the period from August 31, 2004 to the original maturity date of August 31, 2006.

Convertible debentures (continued):
(d)
During February 2006, the Corporation realized gross cash proceeds of $2,200,000 from the issuance of 8% redeemable convertible notes of the Corporation plus 6,875,000 share purchase warrants on the completion of a private placement effected pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. The agreement was signed on February 28, 2006 and the notes are to mature on February 28, 2009. The notes are convertible into common stock at the option of the holders at $0.16 per share provided that the notes and related warrants are convertible into a maximum aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock. Also, subject to certain conditions, the Corporation can force conversion of the notes if the volume weighted average price of the common stock is at least $0.32 for 20 consecutive trading days. Interest on these notes is payable quarterly. At the option of the Corporation, and subject to certain conditions being met, the Corporation may make quarterly interest payments in cash or in common stock of the Corporation. If the Corporation elects to settle with shares, the number of shares issuable is calculated by reference to the market price at that time. Each warrant issued entitles the holder to purchase one of the Corporations common shares and was exercisable initially at a price of $0.16 on or before February 28, 2011, on which date the warrants will expire.
The debentures were initially accounted for as conventional convertible debt whereby the warrants issued with debenture and the entire beneficial conversion feature was accounted for as equity and the residual value was classified as a liability (see note 23).
During year ended December 31, 2006, the Corporation re-evaluated the accounting for the convertible debenture and concluded that the warrants and non-contingent beneficial conversion feature should be accounted for in equity and the remaining debt instrument would be classified as a liability.

Convertible debentures (continued):
The convertible debenture issue included warrants which were convertible into 6,875,000 common shares and a conversion feature, which if exercised fully, would result in 13,750,000 common shares being issued. The limit, which was described explicitly in the agreement, required that if a warrant was presented for exercise, it would only be exercised if the Company had not already issued more than the holders proportionate allocation of 10 million common shares for prior warrant exercises or debt conversions under this specific debenture. If the limit of 10 million common shares had already been reached, there would be no remedy to the warrant holder to allow for either conversion or compensation for non-conversion. Exercise of the remaining amount would only be made once the authorized common share capital had been increased. If a debenture was presented for conversion, it would only be converted if the Company had not already issued more than the holders proportionate allocation of 10 million common shares for prior warrant conversions or debt conversions under this specific debenture. Conversion of the remaining amount would only be made once the authorized common share capital had been increased. There is no remedy to the convertible debenture holder relating to the refused conversion amount except as noted below.
In the debenture agreement, the Company has stated that it will use its best efforts to obtain an increase in authorized share capital within 120 days of the closing of the debenture issue. However, if an increase in authorized share capital was not obtained during this time period, the only remedy available to the convertible debt holders would be to request a return of their funds previously invested under the debenture from the Company. There would be no penalty amount or other remedy which could be invoked by the debenture holder.
In considering the accounting for the warrants, the Corporation determined that the warrants were indexed solely to the Companys own stock and that they should be classified as equity at their relative fair value of $690,629 under paragraphs 12-32 of EITF 00-19. As the warrants will either be exercised into common shares under the warrant agreement (if there is sufficient room as calculated under the 10 million common share limit calculation described above) or they will ultimately expire unexercised. There is no remedy available to the holder of a warrant, if they are not able to exercise the warrants under the agreement because of the limitation on conversion (because the Company has not yet obtained an increase in authorized capital). Thus, there is no possibility that the Company would settle such warrants for cash or that there would be any liability to the warrant holders. As well, the Company may settle the warrants for unregistered shares.

Convertible debentures (continued):
At the date of issuing the convertible note, the Corporation calculated the relative fair value of warrants issued at $690,629 and recorded this value as additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: no dividend yield; volatility of 143%; a risk-free interest rate of 3.25% and an expected term of four years.
The Company evaluated the conversion feature under EITF 00-19 for classification guidance and determined that the debenture does not have a net-cash settlement feature. The debentures can be converted only if there is sufficient room as calculated under the 10 million common share limit of the debenture agreement; otherwise, such debenture, if not converted, will remain outstanding until either additional authorized common share capital is obtained or the holder demands repayment of the debenture. There are no other remedies available to the holder of a debenture and no provisions in the agreement that require or allow for cash settlement.
As the convertible debenture can only be converted into common shares of the Company, and there are no other settlement provisions, the Company concluded that the debenture was conventional convertible debt. Based on that conclusion, the Company determined that the embedded conversion feature should not be separated from the host debenture under FAS 133, instead the beneficial conversion feature should be recognized.
Under EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27, the Company determined the amount of the beneficial conversion feature that should be recorded given that some of the debentures were immediately convertible and some of the debentures were not convertible until the increase in authorized share capital was obtained. For the debentures which could not be immediately converted into common shares, those conversion features would be treated as contingency conversion options and not recognized until such time as the increase in authorized capital was obtained.

Convertible debentures (continued):
In order to calculate the beneficial conversion feature that should be recorded under EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27, the amount of debentures that could be immediately converted assuming that all prior issued securities of the Company had converted and assuming that all of the warrants issued under this debenture agreement had been exercised for common shares was determined to be $500,000. The amount of the beneficial conversion option relating to these debentures that could be immediately exercised was $188,211. No beneficial conversion option has been recorded on the remaining debentures.
The remaining portion of the funds raised under the debenture (not allocated to the warrants or beneficial conversion feature) have been classified as debt, in the amount of $1,321,160. The debt will be accreted to its redemption value over the term of the debt. The contingent conversion feature would only be considered as a beneficial conversion option once the increase in authorized capital has taken place as after that point in time, the conversion would no longer be contingent.
An additional beneficial conversion option of $639,918 relating to the debentures which were not immediately convertible was re-classed from liability to additional paid-in capital on November 24, 2006 when the Corporation obtained an approval from its stockholders to increase the authorized share capital.
On November 27, 2006, the Corporation entered into an agreement with the convertible debenture holders relating to the debentures issued in February 2006, to extend the maturity of debentures of $2,200,000 to December 13, 2009, to reduce the conversion price of the debentures from $0.16 to $0.09 per share of common stock and to reduce the exercise price of the 6,875,000 warrants from $0.16 to $0.10 per share of common stock. The modifications to the terms of the convertible debenture have been accounted for as a debt settlement. As a result, a loss on settlement of $1,608,384 has been recognized and the carrying value of the outstanding debentures has been adjusted to its fair value of $2,444,444. The premium over the face value of the debenture of $244,444 is being amortized over the remaining life of the debenture. No beneficial conversion option has been recognized under the modified terms.

Convertible debentures (continued):
During the year ended December 31, 2006, accretion of $173,463 has been recorded as a charge to the statement of operations, and an increase in the carrying value of the liability, and $1,608,384 was charged to the statement of operations as a loss of settlement due to modifications to the terms of the debentures. During the year ended December 31, 2006, no debentures were converted.
The Corporation is required to register the securities issuable related to the debentures. If an initial registration statement is not effective by January 29, 2007, the Corporation may be subject to a penalty of one percent per month of the outstanding debentures, unless waived by the holders, which would amount to $22,000 per month until such time of effectiveness. As at March 31, 2007 the registration statement is not effective. If a registration is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on or prior to the May 27, 2007, this may constitute an event of default and immediate repayment may be required.

On June 12, 2006 (See note 4(a)), the Corporation issued $1,750,000 of non-interest bearing convertible promissory notes that are convertible into common stock at $0.25 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share to complete the acquisition of Avantry. The notes mature on June 12, 2007.

Convertible debentures (continued):
(f)
During December 2006, the Corporation received gross cash proceeds of $1,350,000 from the issuance of 8% redeemable convertible debentures of the Corporation plus 7,500,000 share purchase warrants on the completion of a private placement effected pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. The debentures are convertible at the option of the holder at any time or automatically convert into common stock, subject to volume limitations, if the closing price of the common stock during a designated period is not less than $0.20. Interest on these debentures is payable quarterly. At the option of the Corporation, and subject to certain conditions being met, the Corporation may make quarterly interest payments in cash or in common stock of the Corporation. If the Corporation elects to settle with shares, the number of shares issuable is calculated by reference to the market price at that time.
Each warrant issued entitles the holder to purchase one of the Corporations common shares and is exercisable at a price of $0.10 on or before December 13, 2011, on which date the warrants will expire.
For accounting purposes, the Corporation calculated the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible debenture, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature, which totaled $982,801, and recorded these values as additional paid-in capital. The value attributed to the warrants was based on their relative fair value as compared to the fair value of the convertible debentures. The remaining balance of $367,199 was recorded as a long-term liability. The carrying value of the liability is being accreted to the redemption value of the debentures over the period from December 13, 2006 to the maturity date of December 13, 2009.
During the year ended December 31, 2006, accretion of $14,495 has been recorded as a charge to the statement of operations, and an increase in the carrying value of the liability. During the year ended of 2006, no debentures were converted.
The Corporation is required to register the securities issuable related to the debentures. If an initial registration statement is not effective by January 29, 2007, the Corporation may be subject to a penalty of one percent per month of the outstanding debentures, unless waived by the holders, which could amount to $13,500 per month until such time of effectiveness. As at March 31, 2007 the registration statement is not effective. If a registration is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on or prior to the May 27, 2007, this may constitute an event of default and immediate repayment may be required.

Restatements (unaudited):
As a result of comments received from and discussions with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Unity has restated their previously issued consolidated interim financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006.
The restatements relate to the following items:
February 2006 debenture issuance
When the February 2006 debentures were issued, the Corporation did not have sufficient authorized shares available to permit the full conversion of the convertible debentures and the exercise of the warrants into common shares. The debenture agreement itself limited the conversion of debentures and warrants to a maximum of 10,000,000 shares.
Previously, the Corporation accounted for the debentures by bifurcating the debenture and related warrants into those debentures that could immediately be converted and those which could not be immediately converted. The corporation had recorded the fair value of the warrants issued of $1,056,170 along with the fair value of the conversion feature on the debentures which could not be immediately converted of $311,952 as Warrants and conversion feature liability. The warrants and conversion feature liability were marked to market in future quarters to reflect the fair value changes in these items.
For the debentures which would immediately be converted a beneficial conversion feature was recorded in equity and the residual value of the debenture was recorded as debt.
The Corporation has revised its accounting for the debentures as outlined in note 11(d) to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006.
The consolidated financial statements for the interim periods March 30, 2006, June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006 have been impacted by the restatement of the accounting for these debentures.

Restatements (unaudited) (continued):
Series A and B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares
Previously, the Corporation accounted for the series A and B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares by separating the conversion feature from the preferred shares and presenting its fair value as a liability, with the residual value presented as equity. Substantially all the value of the preferred shares was presented as part of the conversion feature as a liability.
The Corporation has revised its accounting for the series A and B convertible non-redeemable preferred shares as outlined in note 13(a) and 13(b) to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006. As a result of the restatement, the September 30, 2006 interim consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the change in accounting and the presentation of these preferred shares in temporary equity.
Celletra compensation shares
Previously, the Corporation had not recorded any compensation amount for these shares.
The Corporation has revised its accounting for these shares as outlined in note 4(c) to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006. As a result of the restatement, the September 30, 2006 interim consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the change in accounting and the Corporation has recorded $56,250 as a charge to share compensation expense.

UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned company hereby undertakes that it will:
(1)
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 which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in 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) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the 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 not previously disclosed in the registration statement;
(2)
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each of the post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
(3)
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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Unity Wireless pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Unity Wireless has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission that type of indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against said liabilities (other than the payment by Unity Wireless of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Unity Wireless in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by the director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, Unity Wireless will, unless in the opinion of our 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 the issue.
