Prospective purchasers of Class A Common Stock should carefully review the detailed information and financial statements, including notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Effective October 16, 2006, the Company effected a 2:5 reverse stock split. All references to both number of shares and price per share of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, options and warrants granted, and common stock equivalent shares are presented on a post-split basis. The Company Our Company, Alanco Technologies, Inc., together with our subsidiaries, is a provider of advanced information technology solutions. Our operations at the end of fiscal 2007 (June 30, 2007) were diversified into three reporting business segments including: (i) design, production, marketing and distribution of wireless tracking and subscription information technology for the refrigerated transportation industry (ii) design, production, marketing and distribution of RFID tracking technology for the corrections market, and (iii) manufacturing, marketing and distribution of data storage products. Effective June, 2002, we acquired radio frequency identification (RFID) tracking technology through the acquisition of the operations of Technology Systems International, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Effective June 30, 2006, we acquired the operations of StarTrak Systems, LLC, a provider of wireless tracking and subscription data services to the transportation industry. We continue to participate in the data storage market through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Excel/Meridian Data, Inc., a manufacturer of network attached storage systems for mid-range organizations. Our principal executive offices are located at 15575 North 83rd Way, Suite 3, Scottsdale, AZ 85260, and our telephone number is (480) 607-1010.

RISK FACTORS An investment in Alanco involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information included in this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in determining whether or not to purchase the shares of Class A Common Stock offered under this prospectus. These matters should be considered in conjunction with the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. This prospectus contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of places in this prospectus and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our management, directors or officers primarily with respect to our future operating performance. Prospective purchasers of our securities are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. The accompanying information contained in this prospectus, including the information set out below, identifies important factors that could cause such differences. See "Safe Harbor Statements Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995." We may not be able to reach the sales goals anticipated from the StarTrak Systems acquisition. We acquired the operations of StarTrak Systems, LLC ("StarTrak") effective June 30, 2006. StarTrak is a leading provider of wireless tracking and subscription data services to the transportation industry, with a focus upon the refrigerated or "Reefer" segment of the transport industry. StarTrak provides wireless (including GPS, cellular and radio) tracking, monitoring and control services to this market. We are anticipating significant revenue growth from sales of StarTrak products in the transportation market. We do not have experience in the transportation market, and there is no certainty that we will be able to capture the required market share for StarTrak to achieve its anticipated financial success. The StarTrak system is currently being marketed to the transportation market as a tool to increase efficiency and reduce costs of the refrigerated supply chain by wireless monitoring and control of critical Reefer data, including GPS location, cargo temperatures and Reefer fuel levels. Although StarTrak is the dominant provider for tracking, management and control services of the refrigeration transport market and is currently the only tracking system, to the best of our knowledge, which is able to provide direct interaction with the customer allowing for remote adjustments of variables controlled by the unit, there are other tracking/monitoring systems being marketed to the refrigerated transport industry. There is no certainty that the transportation industry will adopt this technology broadly enough for us to reach our marketing projections. The loss of key StarTrak personnel would have a negative impact on our StarTrak business and technology development. Our StarTrak technology is reliant on key personnel who developed and understand the technology. We have short-term contracts with some key personnel, but have no assurance that such personnel will remain with the Company on a long-term basis. The loss of the services of those key technology personnel could have an adverse effect on the business, operating results and financial condition of our company. We may continue to experience lower than anticipated sales in our TSI PRISM division. We acquired the business and assets of Technology Systems International, Inc. ("TSI") effective June 2002, creating the Company's RFID Technology segment. During fiscal 2005, we changed the name of Technology Systems International, Inc. to Alanco/TSI PRISM, Inc. ("ATSI"). We had anticipated significant revenue growth from sales of the TSI PRISM tracking system in the corrections market in prior years which was not realized. We continue to anticipate future significant revenue growth from sales of the TSI PRISM tracking system; however, there is no certainty that we will be able to capture the required market share for ATSI to achieve its anticipated financial success. The TSI PRISM system is currently being marketed to the corrections market as a prison and jail management tool and officer safety system. Although there are other inmate and officer monitoring systems being marketed to the corrections industry, the TSI PRISM system is currently the only system, to the best of our knowledge, that is able to continuously (every two seconds) monitor the location of both officers and prisoners, both inside and outside of buildings. There is no certainty that the corrections industry will adopt this technology broadly enough for us to reach our marketing projections. The loss of key ATSI personnel would have a negative impact on our ATSI business and technology development. Our TSI PRISM technology is reliant on key personnel who developed and understand the technology. We have no employment contracts with any of our ATSI personnel. The loss of the services of those key technology personnel could have an adverse effect on the business, operating results and financial condition of our company, and our ability to continue to develop products economically and competitively. We could incur financial losses as a result of the continuing litigation with respect to our acquisition of ATSI. We have been sued concerning our acquisition of ATSI. We recently entered into a Settlement Agreement pursuant to which the value of the TSI assets acquired and the value of the consideration we gave for such assets will be determined by an independent third-party appraiser. If we paid less than 85% of the value of the assets, we will have to pay the difference to the TSI bankruptcy estate. See Legal Matters for a discussion of a legal suit filed in connection with our acquisition of the operations of TSI. We are subject to the budget constraints of the governmental agencies purchasing TSI PRISM systems, which could result in a significant decrease in our anticipated revenues. We cannot assure you that the governmental agencies we anticipate purchasing our TSI PRISM systems will have the necessary revenue to purchase the systems even though they may want to do so. The funds available to governmental agencies are subject to various economic and political influences. Even though the TSI PRISM system may be recommended for purchase by corrections facility managers, the governmental agency responsible for the facility may not have sufficient budget resources to purchase the system. As of the date of this filing, the Company has no significant TSI PRISM sales backlog as defined by unfulfilled signed contracts. Worsening general economic conditions may negatively affect our potential customers' ability and willingness to purchase the products sold by our Company. Both our RFID Technology and our Data Storage segment rely on a strong economy to support technology spending by our customers. Our Data Storage segment sells network attached storage systems to mid-sized network users. Previous deterioration in general economic conditions resulted in reduced spending by our customers for technology in general, including the products sold by us. We have the ability to reduce overhead to assist in offsetting our reduced sales volume; however, if the economic conditions were to deteriorate, we could experience a material adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial conditions. See previous section discussing the budget constraints of our government customers. As some governmental funding is supplied by sales tax and income tax revenues, a reduction in economic activity reduces governmental revenues and the monies that can be budgeted for TSI PRISM systems. Acts of domestic terrorism and war have impacted general economic conditions and may impact the industry and our ability to operate profitably. On September 11, 2001, acts of terrorism occurred in New York City and Washington, D.C. On October 7, 2001, the United States launched military actions on Afghanistan, and in 2003 launched military attacks on Iraq with ongoing operations in both areas. As a result of those terrorist acts and military actions, there has been a disruption in general economic activity and a diversion of governmental funding to those endeavors that would otherwise have been available for the purchase of products and systems such as those sold by the Company. There may be other consequences resulting from those acts of terrorism, and any others which may occur in the future, including civil disturbance, war, riot, epidemics, public demonstration, explosion, freight embargoes, governmental action, governmental delay, restraint or inaction, quarantine restrictions, unavailability of capital, equipment, personnel, which we may not be able to anticipate. These terrorist acts and acts of war may continue to impact the economy, and in turn, reduce the demand for our products and services, which would harm our ability to make a profit. Also, as federal dollars are redirected to military efforts, they may not be available for the purchase of new federal prison monitoring systems from our ATSI subsidiary. The Company may not have sufficient capital to meet its liquidity needs if we are not able to carry out our fiscal year 2008 operating plan; Uncertainty of proceeds and additional financing. The Company incurred significant losses during fiscal year 2007 and has experienced significant losses in prior years. Although management cannot assure that future operations will be profitable or that additional debt and/or equity capital will be raised, we believe that, based on our fiscal 2008 operating plan, cash flow will be adequate to meet our anticipated future requirements for working capital expenditures, scheduled lease payments and scheduled payments of interest on our indebtedness. We will need to materially reduce expenses, or raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financing, or both, if the revenue and cash flow elements of our 2008 operating plan are not met. If we need to seek additional financing to meet working capital requirements, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our business, operating results, financial condition and ability to continue operations will be materially adversely affected. If we raise additional funds through the sale of stock, our existing Alanco shareholders will experience dilution and may be subject to newly issued senior securities. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of the then current shareholders of the Company will be reduced, and such equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of Class A Common Stock. We have had recent losses and fluctuations in operating results which may or may not be reliable as an indication of future performance. We had a consolidated loss from operations of ($5,871,700) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, and a consolidated loss from operations of ($4,591,900) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006. In addition, our quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and could fluctuate significantly in the future. We anticipate that our future financial performance will be significantly impacted by our acquisition of StarTrak and our marketing efforts concerning the StarTrak and TSI RFID technology. As a result, our past quarterly operating results should not be used to predict future performance. Our StarTrak and ATSI intellectual property protection may not be sufficient to maintain the value of such property rights. Our primary business strategy is to develop the StarTrak and ATSI business opportunities. The long-term success of this strategy depends in part upon the StarTrak and ATSI intellectual property acquired. Although we are not currently aware of any conflicting technology rights, third parties may hold United States or foreign patents which may be asserted in the future against the StarTrak and ATSI technology, and there is no assurance that any license that might be required under such patents could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, or otherwise. Our competitors may also independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Our efforts to prohibit others from infringing upon our StarTrak and ATSI intellectual property may not be adequate. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights both in the United States and abroad, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so or that the steps taken by us in this regard will be adequate to deter infringement, misuse, misappropriation or independent third-party development of our technology or intellectual property rights or to prevent an unauthorized third party from copying or otherwise obtaining and using our products or technology. Litigation may also become necessary to defend or enforce our proprietary rights. Any of such events could have a negative impact on our competitive position in the markets we serve. The loss of key corporate or subsidiary executives would have a negative effect on our Company. Our performance is substantially dependent on the services and performance of our executive officers and key employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition due to their extensive industry specific knowledge and comprehensive operating plans for the Company. Our future success will depend on our ability to attract, integrate, motivate and retain qualified technical, sales, operations and managerial personnel. With the exception of the two most senior StarTrak executives, none of our executive officers are bound by an employment agreement, and none are covered by key-man insurance. Additional competitors to StarTrak may arise that could affect the future projected StarTrak business. Although StarTrak currently is the dominant provider of tracking, management and control services of refrigeration transport Reefer units, it can be expected that if, and to the extent that, the demand for the StarTrak technology increases, the number of competitors will likely increase. Increasing competition could adversely affect the amount of new business we are able to attract, the rates we are able to charge for our services and/or products, or both. Additional competitors to the TSI PRISM business may arise that could affect the future projected TSI PRISM business. Although early in the market development cycle, the TSI PRISM business/technology has no current, identified direct competitors capable of the same performance levels as the TSI PRISM system. There are other companies attempting to introduce area location and monitoring technologies in the correctional facilities market who offer area or zone detection systems that are not capable of providing continuous real-time tracking at this time. However, it can be expected that if, and to the extent that, the demand for the ATSI technology increases, the number of competitors will likely increase, as will their capabilities. Increasing competition could adversely affect the amount of new business we are able to attract, the rates we are able to charge for our services and/or products, or both. We may lack the capital for our Excel/Meridian Data subsidiary to compete effectively in the data storage market. Because we are significantly smaller than many of our competitors in the data storage business, we may lack the capital required to increase our market share. We operate in a very competitive environment, competing against numerous other companies, many of whom have greater financial resources and market position than we do. Possible exercise and issuance of options and warrants issued by the Company may dilute interest of shareholders. As of the date of this prospectus, options to purchase 6,789,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock were outstanding, and the weighted average exercise price of such options was $2.01. Additionally, warrants to purchase 4,079,903 shares of our Class A Common Stock were outstanding, and the weighted average exercise price of such warrants was $2.38. To the extent that any stock options currently outstanding or granted in the future are exercised, dilution to the interests of our shareholders may occur. We may not be able to maintain our NASDAQ Listing if we are unable to keep our stock price above the minimum $1.00 bid price per share. Our Class A Common Stock currently trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol "ALAN." However, there can be no assurance that an active trading market in our Class A Common Stock will be available at any particular future time. In August, 2005, we received notification from NASDAQ indicating that due to the failure of the Company to maintain the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement, the Company's securities were subject to delisting from NASDAQ. In accordance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c) (8) (D), the Company had 180 days, or until January 31, 2006, to comply with the Rule. The minimum bid price requirement was not met by the date specified, and again in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c), NASDAQ officials determined the Company met the NASDAQ Capital Market initial listing criteria except for the bid price requirement and notified the Company that it had been granted an additional 180 calendar days (until July 31, 2006) to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. In August, 2006, we received notification from NASDAQ indicating that we had not regained compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement and that the Company's securities would be delisted. We elected to appeal the NASDAQ Staff delisting determination and an oral hearing before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel ("Panel") was held on September 14, 2006, with representatives from the Company present. Effective October 16, 2006, the Company's Board of Directors elected to effect a 2:5 reverse stock split pursuant to approval of a proposal authorizing a reverse split obtained from the shareholders at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on January 20, 2006. The Company's stock began trading on a post-split adjusted basis under the interim trading symbol "ALAND" on October 16, 2006 for a period of 20 trading days, after which the Company's trading symbol returned to "ALAN." The Company's stock has traded above the $1.00 minimum bid price since the reverse stock split was effected. On November 2, 2006, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ indicating that the Company had remedied its minimum bid price deficiency and had regained compliance with the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market. There can be no assurance that the Company's stock will continue to trade above the minimum NASDAQ $1.00 per share bid requirement, and the Company may again in the future be notified that delisting may occur. The Company does not anticipate payment of dividends. We do not anticipate that we will pay cash dividends on our Class A Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends by us will depend on our earnings, financial condition, and such other factors, as our Board of Directors may consider relevant. We currently plan to retain earnings to provide for the development of our business. Our articles of incorporation and Arizona law may have the effect of making it more expensive or more difficult for a third party to acquire, or to acquire control of, us. Our articles of incorporation make it possible for our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of us. Arizona law prohibits a publicly held Arizona corporation from engaging in certain business combinations with certain persons, who acquire our securities with the intent of engaging in a business combination, unless the proposed transaction is approved in a prescribed manner. This provision has the effect of discouraging transactions not approved by our Board of Directors as required by the statute which may discourage third parties from attempting to acquire us or to acquire control of us even if the attempt would result in a premium over market price for the shares of common stock held by our stockholders. Certain provisions in our Alanco shareholder rights plan may discourage a takeover attempt. We have implemented a shareholder rights plan which could make an unsolicited takeover of our company more difficult. As a result, shareholders holding a controlling block of shares may be deprived of the opportunity to sell their shares to potential acquirers at a premium over prevailing market prices. This potential inability to obtain a premium could reduce the market price of our common stock. The market price of Alanco Class A Common Stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include: o progress of our products through development and marketing; o announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors; o government regulatory action affecting our products or competitors' products in both the United States and foreign countries; o developments or disputes concerning patent or proprietary rights; o actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; o the loss of key management or technical personnel; o the loss of major customers or suppliers; o the outcome of any future litigation; o changes in our financial estimates by securities analysts; o general market conditions for emerging growth and technology companies; o broad market fluctuations; o recovery from natural disasters; and o economic conditions in the United States or abroad. Future sales of Alanco Class A Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect our stock price and our ability to raise funds in new equity offerings. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of our common stock or the availability for future sale of shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for our common stock will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. For example, the availability of the shares covered by this S-3 registration statement for sale, or of common stock by our existing stockholders under Rule 144, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and could materially impair our future ability to raise capital through an offering of equity securities.

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including those risks and uncertainties identified in the section of this prospectus beginning on page 4 titled "Risk Factors" and those risks and uncertainties identified elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus. Due to these risks and uncertainties, the actual results that we achieve may differ materially from these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations. In preparing this prospectus, we have made a number of assumptions and projections about the future of our business. These assumptions and projections could be wrong for several reasons including, but not limited to, those factors identified in the "Risk Factors" section. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures that we make in this prospectus, any subsequent prospectus supplements and in our other reports filed with the SEC. These disclosures attempt to advise interested parties of the risk factors that may affect our business. ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES TO SELLING SHAREHOLDERS The Class A Common Stock subject to this prospectus relates to securities issuable by us pursuant to a number of separate transactions. We agreed in each of these transactions to file a registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, to register the resale or other disposition of the Class A Common Stock issued or issuable by us in these transactions. All of the shares of Class A Common Stock covered by this prospectus were "restricted securities" under the Securities Act prior to this registration. Each of the shares of Class A Common Stock includes a Right under the Shareholder Rights Plan that is also being registered in this Prospectus. The transactions under which the securities were issued are described in the following paragraphs. The first transaction pertains to an offering in April 2006 wherein we issued 328,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 328,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.62 per share to The Anderson Family Trust on April 26, 2006. The offering was comprised of 820,000 units sold at a price of $0.61 per unit, each unit consisting of two-fifths of one share of Class A Common Stock and a warrant to purchase two-fifths of one share of Class A Common Stock. Donald E. and Rebecca E. Anderson control the trust. Mr. Anderson is a director of the Company. The 328,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were previously registered on our S-3 Registration Statement effective January 11, 2007. Due to a NASDAQ regulation requiring shareholder approval for the warrant granted in the transaction, a proposal for such approval was slated on the Proxy for the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held on January 30, 2007. The proposal was approved and this prospectus now covers only the 328,000 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the warrant. The agreement pertaining to this transaction was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 4, 2006. The second transaction involves the issuance of warrants to purchase 288,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with a private offering to accredited investors in July 2006. The offering was comprised of 240,000 units sold at a price of $1.71 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock together with a 5-year warrant to purchase 1.2 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share. 180,000 units were purchase by directors and officers of the Company, including 60,000 units each purchased by Robert R. Kauffman, director and CEO, Harold S. Carpenter, director, and Donald E. Anderson, director. The remaining 60,000 units were sold to a non-related accredited third party. This prospectus covers only the 288,000 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the warrants. The Form of Agreement and the Form of Warrant pertaining to this transaction were filed as Exhibits to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 14, 2006. The third transaction involves the issuance of 406,854 shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the June 30, 2006 acquisition of StarTrak Systems, LLC. Subsequent to the January 30, 2007 Annual Shareholders Meeting, wherein the shareholders approved the issuance of 3,280,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (plus additional shares to be paid as a commission to an investment banking firm) as payment in lieu of cash related to obligations incurred in connection with the acquisition of StarTrak, 56,854 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to Cronus Partners LLC, an investment banking firm, as commissions for the transaction, and 350,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to Tenix Holding, Inc. as a stock payment for their membership interest in StarTrak. This prospectus includes only the 406,854 shares described above. The agreement pertaining to this transaction was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 27, 2006. The fourth transaction involves the issuance of 649,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with a private offering to accredited investors in April 2007 as follows: 105,000 shares to Heartland Systems Co., 144,000 shares to The Anderson Family Trust (controlled by Donald E. and Rebecca E. Anderson with Mr. Anderson being a director of the Company), 180,000 shares to Richard S. Vanek, former President of our subsidiary, Excel/Meridian Data, Inc., and 220,000 shares to The Rhino Fund LLP. We received $1,277,200, net of cost of approximately $21,500, in the offering.

USE OF PROCEEDS The proceeds from the sale or other disposition of all of the shares of Class A Common Stock covered by this prospectus will be for the account of the selling shareholders, which term includes their transferees, pledgees or donees or other successors in interest. Accordingly, we will not receive any proceeds from the sale or other disposition of Class A Common Stock by the selling shareholders. We may, however, receive proceeds from the exercise of certain rights held by some of the selling shareholders under stock options or warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock from us if that is the origin of the shares. Such proceeds, when and if received, would be utilized by the Company for general working capital. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein: - ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; - block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; - purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; - an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; - privately negotiated transactions; - short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC; - through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; - broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; and - a combination of any such methods of sale. The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus. In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants. The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule. The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with. We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. In certain cases, we have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus. We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act. SELLING STOCKHOLDERS The following table sets forth certain information, received through October 8, 2007, with respect to the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder. The information set forth below is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling stockholders and, with regard to the beneficial holdings of the selling stockholders, is accurate only to the extent beneficial holdings information was disclosed to us by or on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders listed in any supplement to this prospectus, and any transferors, pledgees, donees or successors to these persons, may from time to time sell or otherwise dispose of, pursuant to this prospectus and any subsequent prospectus supplement, any and all of these shares. Except as otherwise described below, no selling stockholder, to our knowledge, held beneficially one percent or more of our outstanding Class A Common Stock as of the date of this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of all, some or none of the shares of our Class A Common Stock listed below, the Company is not able to estimate the amount or percentage of our Class A Common Stock that will be held by the selling stockholders upon completion of this offering. The following table assumes that all of the shares of Class A Common Stock being registered and the shares underlying the warrants being registered will be sold by the selling stockholders. The shares purchased by the selling shareholders were purchased in the ordinary course of business; and at the time of the purchase of the securities to be resold, none of the sellers had any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. None of the selling shareholders are affiliates of broker-dealers. Except as indicated below, none of the selling stockholders has held any position or office or had any other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates within the past three years other than as a result of the ownership of our securities or the securities of our predecessors. We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time to update the disclosure set forth in it.

The preferred stock is issuable in series with such designation, preferences, voting rights, privileges, and other restrictions and qualifications as our Board of Directors may establish in accordance with Arizona law. There were 22,728,035 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, and no shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding as of October 8, 2007. There were 3,984,118 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding and 82,772 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of October 8, 2007. Shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock at a rate of 1.2 shares of Class A Common Stock for every one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock at a rate of 5.2 shares of Class A Common Stock for every one share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As of October 8, 2007, options to purchase 6,789,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding, and the weighted average exercise price of such options was $2.01. In addition, as of October 8, 2007, the Company had 4,079,903 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock outstanding, and the weighted average exercise price of such warrants was $2.38. Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol "ALAN". No other securities of the Company are currently traded on any market. Common Stock Holders of shares of our Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by our shareholders. Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to one-one hundredth of one vote per share of Class B Common Stock on all matters to be voted on by our shareholders. Our Class A Common Stock and our Class B Common Stock have cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors. Our bylaws require that only a majority of the issued and outstanding voting shares of common stock need be represented to constitute a quorum and to transact business at a shareholders' meeting. Subject to the dividend rights of the holders of preferred stock, if applicable, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share, on a ratable basis, such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of creditors and holders of any of our senior securities, including preferred stock, our assets will be divided pro rata on a per share basis among the holders of the shares of common stock. Our common stock has no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. Preferred Stock Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue preferred stock in one or more series and denominations and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions, including dividend, conversion, voting, redemption, liquidation rights or preferences, and the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series, without any further vote or action by our shareholders. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control of our company without further action by the shareholders. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock. Our Board of Directors has previously authorized the issuance of a series of preferred stock referred to as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Without the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, we may not amend, alter or repeal any of the provisions of our articles of incorporation or articles of designation for the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. We also need the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock if we want to authorize any reclassification of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that would adversely affect the preferences, special rights or privileges or voting power of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. We may not create or issue any class of stock ranking prior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as to dividends or distribution of assets, or create or issue any shares of any series of the authorized preferred stock ranking prior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock's rights to dividends or distribution on liquidation. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall have voting rights as if converted into Class A Common Stock. Our Board of Directors has also authorized the issuance of a series of preferred stock referred to as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Without the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, we may not amend, alter or repeal any of the provisions of our articles of incorporation or articles of designation for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. We also need the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock if we want to authorize any reclassification of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that would adversely affect the preferences, special rights or privileges or voting power of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. We may not create or issue any class of stock ranking prior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (other than the existing Series B Convertible Preferred Stock) as to dividends or distribution of assets, or create or issue any shares of any series of the authorized preferred stock ranking prior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock's rights to dividends or distribution on liquidation. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have voting rights as if converted into Class A Common Stock. Arizona Corporate Takeover Act and Certain Charter Provisions We are subject to the provisions of the Arizona Corporate Takeover Act. The Arizona Corporate Takeover Act and certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, as summarized in the following paragraphs, may have the effect of discouraging, delaying, or preventing hostile takeovers (including those that might result in a premium over the market price of our common stock), or discouraging, delaying, or preventing changes in control or management of our company. Arizona Corporate Takeover Act Article 1 of the Arizona Corporate Takeover Act is intended to restrict "greenmail" attempts by prohibiting us from purchasing any shares of our capital stock from any beneficial owner of more than 5% of the voting power of our company at a per share price in excess of the average market price during the 30 trading days prior to the purchase, unless o the 5% owner has beneficially owned the shares to be purchased for a period of at least three years prior to the purchase; o a majority of our shareholders (excluding the 5% owner, its affiliates or associates, and any officer or director of our company) approves the purchase; or o we make the offer available to all holders of shares of our capital stock. Article 2 of the Arizona Corporate Takeover Act is intended to discourage the direct or indirect acquisition by any person of beneficial ownership of our shares (other than an acquisition of shares from us) that would constitute a control share acquisition. A "control share acquisition" is defined as an acquisition of shares by any person, when added to other shares of our company beneficially owned by such person, immediately after the acquisition entitles such person to exercise or direct the exercise of o at least 20% but less than 33 1/3%; o at least 33 1/3% but less than or equal to 50%; or o more than 50% of the voting power of our capital stock. The Arizona Corporate Takeover Act (1) gives our shareholders other than any person that makes or proposes to make a control share acquisition or our company's directors and officers the right to limit the voting power of the shares acquired by the acquiring person that exceed the threshold voting ranges described above, other than in the election of directors, and (2) gives us the right to redeem such shares from the acquiring person at a price equal to their fair market value under certain circumstances. Article 3 of the Arizona Corporate Takeover Act is intended to discourage us from entering into certain mergers, consolidations, share exchanges, sales or other dispositions of our assets, liquidation or dissolution of our company, reclassification of securities, stock dividends, stock splits, or other distribution of shares, and certain other transactions with any interested shareholder (as defined in the takeover act) or any of the interested shareholder's affiliates for a period of three years after the date that the interested shareholder first acquired the shares of common stock that qualify such person as an interested shareholder, unless either the business combination or the interested shareholder's acquisition of shares is approved by a committee of our Board of Directors (comprised of disinterested directors or other persons) prior to the date on which the interested shareholder first acquired the shares that qualify such person as an interested shareholder. In addition, Article 3 prohibits us from engaging in any business combination with an interested shareholder or any of the interested shareholder's affiliates after such three-year period unless: o the business combination or acquisition of shares by the interested shareholder was approved by our Board of Directors prior to the date on which the interested shareholder acquired the shares that qualified such person as an interested shareholder; o the business combination is approved by our shareholders (excluding the interested person or any of its affiliates) at a meeting called after such three-year period; or o the business combination satisfies each of certain statutory requirements. Article 3 defines an "interested shareholder" as any person (other than us and our subsidiaries) that either (a) beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding shares, or (b) is an affiliate or associate of our company and who, at any time within the three-year period preceding the transaction, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding shares. Certain Charter Provisions In addition to the provisions of the Arizona Corporate Takeover Act described above, our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain a number of provisions relating to corporate governance and the rights of shareholders. These provisions include the following: o the authority of our Board of Directors to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors; o the authority of our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock in series with such voting rights and other powers as our Board of Directors may determine; o a provision that, unless otherwise prohibited by law, special meetings of the shareholders may be called only by our Board of Directors, or by holders of not fewer than 10% of all shares entitled to vote at the meeting; and o a provision for cumulative voting in the election of directors, pursuant to Arizona law. Shareholder Rights Plan In addition to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in this Prospectus, we are also registering the Right per our Shareholder Rights Plan attached to each of these shares. The definition of a Right, as well as a description of our Shareholder Rights Plan, follows. We have established a shareholder rights plan under which each share of common stock presently outstanding or which is issued hereafter prior to the "distribution date," defined below, is granted one preferred share purchase right, or a right, and each share of Series A or Series B preferred stock presently outstanding or hereafter issued prior to the distribution date, which is convertible into common stock of the Company, is granted such number of rights equal to the number of common shares such preferred stock is convertible in to. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of the series C junior participating preferred stock of the Company at a price of $25.00 per 1/100th of a series C preferred share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends and similar events occurring prior to the distribution date. Each 1/100th of a series C preferred share would have voting, dividend and liquidation rights which are the approximate equivalent of one share of Class A common stock. The rights are not exercisable until the distribution date, which is the earlier to occur of (i) 10 days following the date, or the stock acquisition date, of a public announcement that a person or group, or an acquiring person, has acquired beneficial ownership, of 25% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company, or (ii) 10 business days, unless extended by our board, following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of 25% or more of the outstanding common stock. Until the distribution date, the rights will be transferred with and only with the common stock or the preferred stock, and the surrender for transfer of any certificate for common stock or preferred stock will also constitute the transfer of the rights associated with the shares represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable following the distribution date, separate certificates evidencing the rights will be mailed to holders of record of the common stock and preferred stock as of the close of business on the distribution date, and the rights will then become separately tradable. In the event that any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 25% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, other than pursuant to a tender or exchange offer for all outstanding shares of common stock at a price and on terms determined by a majority of our board who are not representatives, affiliates or associates of an acquiring person, to be at a price which is fair to our shareholders and otherwise in the best interests of our Company and our shareholders, each holder of a right, other than rights beneficially owned by, or in certain circumstances acquired from, the acquiring person or its associates or affiliates, which will be void, will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock, or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other securities of our Company, having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the right. However, the rights are not exercisable following any such event until such time as the rights are no longer redeemable by us as set forth below. In the event that after the stock acquisition date, (i) we engage in a merger or consolidation in which we are not the surviving corporation or in which shares of our common stock are converted or exchanged, other than a transaction pursuant to a qualifying offer, or (ii) 50% or more of the Company's consolidated assets or earning power are sold or transferred, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a right, other than rights which have previously been voided as set forth above, will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise of the right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction will have a market value of two times the exercise price of the right. At any time after a person or group becomes an acquiring person and prior to the acquisition by such person or group of 50% or more of the outstanding common stock, our board may exchange the rights, other than rights owned by such person or group, which have become void, in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock, or 1/100th of a series C junior participating preferred share, into a share of a class or series of our preferred stock having equivalent rights, preferences and privileges, per right, subject to adjustment. At any time until 10 days following the stock acquisition date, our board may redeem the rights in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price of $.001 per right, subject to adjustment. Prior to the distribution date, the terms of the rights may without the consent of the holders of the rights be amended by our board in any respect whatever, except for an amendment that would change the redemption price, the exercise price of the rights, the number of 1/100ths of a series C preferred share purchasable upon exercise of the rights or the final expiration date of the rights. After the distribution date, our board may amend the rights agreement to cure any ambiguity or inconsistency, to make changes which do not adversely affect the interests of holders of rights, excluding the interest of any acquiring person, or to shorten or lengthen any time period under the rights agreement; provided, however, that no amendment to adjust the time period governing redemption may be made at such time as the rights are not redeemable. The rights will expire on June 30, 2014, unless the rights are earlier redeemed by us as described above.
