Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain reclassifications and other corrections for rounding have been made in prior-period financial statements to conform to the current-period presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock options under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 using the intrinsic value method. The Company has elected not to adopt the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (FAS 123). In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, pro-forma net income, stock-based compensation expense, and earnings per share using the fair value method are stated as follows:

Note 2 — Going Concern Considerations
The Company’s recurring losses from development-stage activities in current and prior years raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company is attempting to raise additional capital to fund research and development costs until it is able to consistently

generate revenues and sustain profitable operations. However, there can be no assurance that these plans will be successful.
Note 3 — Issuance of Common Stock, Preferred Stock, and Warrants
Common Stock
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company issued 2,176,389 shares of restricted common stock, 104,167 of which were issued for services valued at $18,750 and 2,072,222 of which were issued for cash totaling $373,000. In connection with the sales for cash, the Company also issued warrants to purchase 2,072,222 shares of restricted common stock at $0.18 per share, expiring 3 years from the date of issuance.
Preferred Stock and Warrants
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company issued 30,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 22,877,478 shares of common stock for a total offering price of $3.0 million. The Company incurred $340,000 of offering costs and issued to the placement agent warrants to purchase 1,220,132 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.1967 per share which are exercisable for a period of three years. The Company valued these warrants at $213,889 ($0.18 per share) using a Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free rate 2.82%, volatility of 203% and an expected life of three years.
Each share of Preferred Stock entitles the holder to convert the share of Preferred Stock into the number of shares of common stock resulting from multiplying $100 by the conversion price. The conversion price is 85% of the average of the lowest three intra-day trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, but the conversion price may not exceed $0.1967. The warrants are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase up to 22,877,478 shares of common stock of the Company on or before the third anniversary of the issuance date of the warrants at $0.1967 per share.
The Company has allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants, based on their relative fair values on the date of issuance which are as follows: $3,000,000 to the Series A Convertible Preferred and $4,010,422 to the warrants. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes Pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 203%, risk-free interest rate of 2.82% and a term of three years. The allocation of the net proceeds resulted in $1,046,775 being allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and $1,399,336 being allocated to the warrants. The Company recognized a beneficial conversion dividend of $1,264,409 on the date of issuance equal to the value allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (before offering costs). The actual amount of the beneficial conversion was $4,037,917 but the dividend is limited to the amount of gross proceeds allocated to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has no voting rights. In the event of liquidation, the holders are entitled to a liquidating distribution of $100 per share. The number of shares of common stock subject to the warrants and the exercise price are subject to equitable adjustment in connection with a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors requiring the Company to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the warrants.
Note 4 — Other Significant Events
SaveCream Asset Purchase
On March 16, 2005, the Company completed the purchase of the intellectual property assets (the “Assets”) of Savetherapeutics AG, a German corporation in liquidation in Hamburg, Germany (“SaveT”). The Assets consist primarily of patents, patent applications, pre-clinical study data and clinical trial data concerning SaveCream,

SaveT’s developmental-stage topical aromatase inhibitor treatment for breast cancer. SaveCream never generated revenues for SaveT. The Company’s analysis as to whether the intellectual property purchased constituted a business resulted in the conclusion that no such business had been acquired.
The purchase price of the Assets was negotiated to be 2,350,000 (approximately $2.8 million under current exchange rates), payable as follows: 500,000 at closing, 500,000 (approximately $665,700 on the date of transaction, $604,900 using the June 30, 2005 exchange rates) upon conclusion of certain pending transfers of patent and patent application rights from SaveT’s inventors to the Company, and the remaining 1,350,000 (approximately $1.74 million at current exchange rates) upon successful commercialization of the Assets. The Company’s source of funds for the acquisition was a $3 million investment in the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock by an unrelated third party, as described in Note 3.
SaveT inventors have yet to assign the patent and application rights to the Company, management has deemed the assignment of the rights to be reasonably likely because the inventors are contractually bound to execute and deliver the assignments; therefore, the Company has recorded the second 500,000 payment as a current liability in these financial statements. At present it is undeterminable whether the intellectual property will ever be commercialized; therefore, the final 1,350,000 under this acquisition has not been accrued as a liability as of June 30, 2005. The Company determined the intellectual property purchased should be expensed as research and development costs
Formation of MDI Oncology, Inc.
On March 22, 2005, the Company formed MDI Oncology, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of acquiring and operating the assets and associated business ventures associated with the SaveCream purchase.
Settlement of Debt
On April 1, 2005, the Company negotiated a settlement regarding notes payable totaling $280,717 and accrued interest of $215,636, by payment of $300,000 in cash. The Company recognized a gain on settlement of debt totaling $196,353.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The purpose of this section is to discuss and analyze our consolidated financial condition, liquidity and capital resources, and results of operations. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto at pages 3 through 11 and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004 (the “2004 10-KSB”).
This section contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our plans, objectives, goals, strategies and financial performance. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of factors set forth under “Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information and Factors Affecting Future Results” below and elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We are a developmental-stage bio-pharmaceutical company engaged in the research, validation, development and ultimate commercialization of two drugs: MDI-P and SaveCream. MDI-P is an anti-infective drug that we believe will be a safe and effective treatment for bacterial infections, viral infections and fungal infections. SaveCream is a

breast cancer medication that is applied topically to reduce breast cancer tumors. Both of these drugs are still in development and have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Our initial target indications for MDI-P are Cystic Fibrosis and HIV. We have filed an Investigatory New Drug application (IND) with the FDA seeking permission to begin Phase I human clinical trials of MDI-P as a treatment for Cystic Fibrosis. The FDA has responded to our IND and we are hopeful that we can satisfactorily answer the FDA’s questions and satisfy the FDA’s follow-up requests for further animal testing, resulting in the FDA approving the application. If the FDA approves that IND, we will begin human trials at St. Luke’s Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho using a protocol designed by Dr. Henry Thompson. If our Phase I IND for Cystic Fibrosis is successful, we intend to file an IND for Phase I testing of MDI-P as a treatment for HIV at Harvard School of Medicine using a protocol designed by Dr. Bruce Dezube. We also expect to add additional indications for the use of MDI-P in the future as we further our pre-clinical development.
We recently purchased the intellectual property for SaveCream from the liquidation estate of a defunct German biotechnology company. In a European Union study of SaveCream used by over 100 women diagnosed with breast cancer, a significant number of those women experienced a significant tumor reduction. This study, while preliminary, indicates that SaveCream may be substantially more effective and faster acting than similar drugs already on the market. We are in the process of developing a global commercialization strategy for SaveCream.
To date, we have not generated significant revenues from operations or realized a profit. Through June 30, 2005, we had incurred a cumulative net loss since inception of $22,928,241.
Recent Events
SaveCream Asset Purchase. We are in the process of developing a commercialization plan for SaveCream and of integrating the SaveCream assets into MDI. Specifically, we are working to complete the transfer of patents and patent applications to MDI’s subsidiary designated for developing SaveCream. As we previously reported, at the time we purchased SaveCream and the other intellectual property assets from Savetherapeutics A.G. (SaveT), SaveT had not yet obtained and filed with the appropriate patent offices assignments of the various inventors’ rights to the underlying inventions. Each of those inventors has agreed and is contractually bound to assign such rights. We are currently in the process of securing the applicable assignments. However, we may need to initiate litigation against the inventors to secure such assignments.
Cystic Fibrosis IND. We are continuing to prosecute our IND for cystic fibrosis with the FDA. We have agreed with the FDA on a large animal model protocol to establish pharmacological safety with relation to cardio and central nervous system toxicity as well as genotoxicity for this IND. We expect to begin that phase of testing in Q3 of this year and to start Phase I clinical trials on cystic fibrosis in Q1 of 2006, subject to FDA approval.
Results of Operations
Revenues and Gross Profit — We did not book any revenue for the three or six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 or June 30, 2004. As we continue to pursue pre-clinical and clinical testing of our pharmaceuticals, we may not book significant revenues in the near future.
Operating Expenses and Operating Loss — We incurred $118,520 in research and development expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. We incurred $132,335 in research and development expenses for the same period of 2004. Our general and administrative expenses were $636,325 during the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared to $369,270 during the quarter ended June 30, 2004. As a result of the foregoing, we sustained an operating loss of $754,845 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with an operating loss of $501,605 for the same period of 2004.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005 we incurred $1,670,506 in research and development expenses, $1,345,000 of which related to our acquiring the patents and patent rights relating to SaveCream. We incurred $170,978 in research and development expenses for the same period of 2004. Our general and administrative expenses were

$888,321 during the first six months of 2005, as compared to $2,416,963 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, resulting in operating losses of $2,558,827 through June 30, 2005 and $2,587,941 for the same period of 2004.
Other Income/Expense and Net Loss — We booked $9,346 in interest income and incurred interest expenses of $7,237 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with interest income of $1,426 and $33,048 in interest expenses for the same period of 2004. The decrease in interest expense is a result of our successful efforts to convert high-interest debt to equity. We also recorded $196,353 as Gain on Forgiveness of Debt during the quarter ended June 30, 2005, which resulted from a negotiated settlement of certain notes payable. In sum, our net loss applicable to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2005 was $515,483 or a loss of less than $0.01 per fully diluted share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2004 we incurred a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $532,507, making a loss of $0.01 per fully diluted share.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we booked $14,910 in interest income and incurred interest expense of $23,135, as compared with $3,126 of interest income and $86,724 of interest expense for the comparable period of 2004. In addition, we recognized a preferred stock dividend of $1,264,409 during the first six months as a result of the beneficial conversion feature of the preferred shares issued during the period. There was no such dividend recognized during the first half of 2004. Our net loss applicable to common shareholders for the first half of 2005 was $3,574,308 or $0.03 per fully diluted share. Our net loss for the first half of 2004 was $2,670,819 or $0.03 per fully diluted share.
Future Expectations — We may operate at a loss for several more years while we continue to research, gain regulatory approval of, and commercialize our technologies. We will spend more in the remainder of the 2005 fiscal year in research and development expenses than we did over the prior year as we continue to implement our commercialization strategy. Similarly, we expect our general and administrative expenses to continue to increase for the remainder of 2005 as we continue to expand the scope of our operations. As a result, we expect to sustain a greater net loss in 2005 than we have in recent years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2005, we had $2,424,197 in cash and had a working capital deficit of $1,212,906. Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private sales of equity and the issuance of convertible and non-convertible notes. We continue to require significant supplementary funding to continue to develop, research, and seek regulatory approval of our technologies. We do not currently generate any cash from operations and have no credit facilities in place or available. Currently, we are funding operations through private issuances of equity.
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we issued 30,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to an unrelated third-party in exchange for $3 million in cash, less offering costs of $250,000. We intend to use this cash for additional research and development, including making the second installment on our purchase of the SaveCream assets.
We believe we have sufficient capital on hand to complete Phase I clinical trials for Cystic Fibrosis once the FDA approves our IND. We also believe we have sufficient capital to file our IND for HIV.
Once an IND application for HIV is submitted, and assuming it is approved, we will need additional capital to initiate Phase I clinical trials. We estimate the cost to complete Phase I and Phase II clinical trials to be several million dollars per indication and the cost to complete Phase III testing and obtain approval of an NDA to be in the tens of millions of dollars per indication.
While our ability to obtain financing may improve in the event our IND application is approved, we cannot give assurances that we will have access to the significant capital required to take a drug through regulatory approvals and to market. We may seek a partner in the global pharmaceutical industry to help us co-develop, license, or even purchase some or all of our technologies.

Additional forward-looking statements may be made by us from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral and whether made by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
Our forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by us to have a reasonable basis, including without limitation, our examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that our expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved or accomplished. Our forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this report. Those risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, our lack of significant operating revenues and lack of profit to date, our need for substantial and immediate additional capital, the fact that we may dilute existing shareholders through additional stock issuances, the extensive governmental regulation to which we are subject, the fact that our technologies remain unproven, the intense competition we face from other companies and other products, and our reliance upon potentially inadequate intellectual property. Those risks and certain other uncertainties are discussed in more detail in the 2004 10-KSB. There may also be other factors, including those discussed elsewhere in this report, that may cause our actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf should be considered in light of these factors.
