This statement relates to the shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, (“Common Stock”) of Dais Analytic Corporation.  The Issuer’s principal executive office is located at 11552 Prosperous Drive, Odessa, Florida 33556.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

The names of the persons filing this statement on Schedule 13D (the “Reporting Persons”) are:

 
·
Platinum-Montaur Life Sciences, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Platinum-Montaur”); and
 
·
Mark Nordlicht, a United States citizen (“Mr. Nordlicht”).

The shares of Common Stock and derivatives to acquire Common Stock beneficially owned by Platinum-Montaur are owned directly by Platinum-Montaur.  Mr. Nordlicht is the controlling person of Platinum-Montaur.  As a result, Mr. Nordlicht may be deemed, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to be a beneficial owner of all the shares of Common Stock directly or indirectly held by Platinum-Montaur.

The principal business address for each of Platinum-Montaur and Mr. Nordlicht is 152 West 57th Street, 54th floor, New York, New York 10019.

The principal business of Platinum-Montaur is that of a private investment fund engaged in the purchase and sale of securities for its own account.  Mr. Nordlicht’s principal occupation is serving as Managing Member of Platinum-Montaur and in similar capacities for other private investment funds.

By virtue of his position as the Managing Member of Platinum-Montaur, Mr. Nordlicht has the sole power to vote and dispose of the Issuer’s securities, including shares of Common Stock and derivatives to acquire Common Stock, directly held by Platinum-Montaur.

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-4 of the Exchange Act, each Reporting Person expressly declares that the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) and/or Section 13(g) of the Exchange Act or otherwise, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D held by any other person.

The Reporting Persons have entered into a Joint Filing Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1 hereto, pursuant to which the Reporting Persons have agreed to file this Schedule 13D jointly in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-1(k)(1) under the Exchange Act.  The Reporting Persons may be considered a “group” under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.  However, neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by the Reporting Persons that such a group exists and the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim that they have agreed to act as a group other than as described in this Schedule 13D.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

The purchase price used to acquire the securities beneficially owned by Platinum-Montaur was funded by working capital.  The exercise price for the Warrants (as defined below) is anticipated to be paid by either using the “cashless exercise” feature of the Warrants or through equity contributions of the equity owners of Platinum-Montaur and/or cash on hand.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

December 31, 2007 Transaction

On December 31, 2007, the Issuer entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Platinum-Montaur.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Issuer issued a $600,000 face amount Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) to Platinum-Montaur.  The holder of the Note may elect to convert the principal amount and accrued interest on the Note at any time into shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share.

As further consideration, on December 31, 2007, the Issuer issued to Platinum-Montaur a warrant (the “2007 Warrant”) for the purchase at any time on or before December 31, 2012, of an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share.

If the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal market or exchange on which the Common Stock is traded is at least $1.50 for ten consecutive trading days, the Issuer can compel exercise of the Warrant.

On December 31, 2007, the Issuer entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Platinum-Montaur pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to register for resale under the Securities Act of 12933, as amended, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note and the exercise of the Warrant.

On January 9, 2009, the Issuer registered its Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.
